Question: How can I enter the BIOS of a Portege M100?
I've got actually two problems: How can I enter the Bios and why can't I install the latest drivers for the grafic chip?
I want to increase the grafic performance to the maximum, as I increased the RAM and the notebook is quite fast.
I'd like to play more games that need directx9c.
Whatever you can help me: tx in advance.
Answer:How can I enter the BIOS of a Portege M100?
Do you use the Toshiba BIOS or Phoenix BIOS?
I'm not 100% sure but I think it's a Toshiba BIOS... in this case you can use the ESC button to access the BIOS settings.
I've got bad news for you... the only one, real way to increase the graphic performance is the graphic chip upgrade... BUT this is not possible. The GPU chip is fixes on the board and it's not possible to remove it.
Well, most of games need the directx9c. You could use the command "dxdiag" to access the DirectX settings and to check the installed version.
yesterday i turned off my M100 by holding the power switch while it starts. Since the the power LED blinks orange when I turn it on and nothing else happens.
I read that this means, that the BIOS is damaged.
Is there a way to fix that or is this really the end of my little M100?
You should try this at first: Remove the battery and AC/DC adaptor, wait up to one hour and then connect the battery and the AC/DC adaptor. Now you can try it again.
In worst case the mainboard must be replaced. For this you can go to an authorized service provider.
i have a problem to start my notebook. I loose my supervisor password and now i can't start my notebook. Can you help me please.! I try to reset bios but i ?can't find the jumper cmos to reset bios.
Sorry but you should be smart enough to know that this kind of information is not for publicity. On this way every stolen unit can be started. The best solution is to contact service partner and they can remove the password.
Question: Does Portege M100 BIOS support HDD bigger than 128GB?

What IDE controller has been built-in?
You could install an hardware diagnostic tool like Everest home edition and could check your hardware specifications.
However, you should still install such diagnostic tool to ensure what a kind of IDE controller has been installed.
I got a Portege M100 this week, installed Debian GNU/Linux (Sid) on it and nearly everything was fine.
Then I upgraded to the latest BIOS/FIRMWARE (from V1.10 to V1.50) and now my Pentium M 1200 MHz runs at half speed.
I can't also load cpufreq, which controls the cpu speed.
Will there come a new BIOS/FIRMWARE fix for that?
What do you mean by "I've seen that this problem is already known???"
Where do you find description for a same problem???
Usually the BIOS update shouldn't have any "bad" influence on the CPU speed!!!
Did you check the BIOS option called "dynamic CPU frequency mode".
This option can be found also in the Toshiba HWSetup. You can switch also between "always high" and "always low"
Right my BIOS was on 1.20 when I went to Toshiba website to get the drivers to install and found the BIOS update so I followed the instructions burn it to a floppy disk the last one I have and away I went but after the update I noticed that xp said it was running at 600 MHz not 1,2ghz.
So I used cpuid to see if it was xp but it shows the processor as running 598.6 MHz and can flux to 600.4 MHz max so I went into the BIOS tried CPU max disabled CPU sleep and rebooted so then I thought it was xp so I reinstalled but still the same I used Suse Linux still the same.
I?ve reflashed the BIOS with 1.50 through windows rebooted still the same. I am getting on where and this is getting silly I even went and found all BIOS versions from the Toshiba American site which goes back to version 1.10 to 1.50 so I tried all of them. Nothing!
I am really baffled at this can anybody sort this out it is really annoying and slow.
Just one question; was the motherboard replaced in the past?
As far as I know after the motherboard replacement the test & diagnostic should be performed in order to update the CPU microcode on the PCB.
If the microcode is not updated then your CPU would stuck at 600Mhz.
In order to update the microcode, the ASP must be contacted.
The other reason why the CPU runs only at 600Mhz is the low CPU processing setting in Toshiba power saver.
Check if the Toshiba power saver is installed on your notebook and set the options to a higher level.

Question: Can I use display from Portege 2000 or M100 on Portege R100?
Well, I've got a Portege R100 with a broken display which I'd like to fix. And I've got a Portege 2000 and a M100 with working display.
Will it fit on my R100? They look the same!
Answer:Can I use display from Portege 2000 or M100 on Portege R100?
These notebooks, Port?g? 2000, Port?g? M100 and Port?g? R100, use the same 12.1" 1024x768 TFT color display.
Can give the reference to downloading BIOS for Satellite M100-150 for Windows XP, on an official site I can not download, the reference does not work.
You should check here if the Bios update is available for your model, otherwise I think there is no another source to download here.

Toshiba offers me BIOS 3.0 version for WINDOWS 7 32 bit.
where is problems with DRIVERS, i can not install them, i get install ERRORS.
WINDOWS 7 need XP BIOS 3 version or it needs VISTA BIOS 5.6 version?
I don?t have this notebook model but I have installed Win7 on other older models without errors.
Can you tell us which errors have you noticed and which drivers are ?troublemakers??
during BIOS update my laptop freezed, so need reflash it.
switching it in crisis recovery mode it makes ONE LONG and TWO SHORT SIGNALS.
If BIOS update failed you can do nothing expect contacting an authorized service provider and ask for help. I assume the ROM module must be reflashed and this can only be done with special tools so you need professional help.
In your case I wouldn?t try such BIOS recovery tools, you could destroy the whole ROM module.
Question: Satellite M100-165 with XP: How to update BIOS to use the Vista OS?
I am using my notebook with Windows XP and BIOS version 2.80.
"This Bios is only compatible for Notebooks with Windows Vista!
Do NOT install this Bios if you have Windows XP running as Operating System!"
When downloading the XP compatible 2.80 version, I got the same message saying it was not compatible with Vista.
Now, should I first install Vista with the XP compatible 2.80 BIOS and then install the Vista compatible 5.40 BIOS or install 5.40 first within XP (no traditional update available, only Windows updates are present)and then install Vista?
I'm afraid of a bad flash by installing the Vista compatible BIOS in XP.
Answer:Satellite M100-165 with XP: How to update BIOS to use the Vista OS?
1. Backup your data and download the appropriate drivers for Vista.
2. Make sure you have everything saved/backuped/etc.
P.S.: Would appreciate some feedback on your success..
I have updated the bios to 2.10 version and the latest ATI drivers, but the promblem is still there.
Is there anything I can do to fix it, because the dithering promblem is really annoying!
All we can do now is to wait for BIOS 2.20. I agree that dithering is very annoying, sometimes it's difficult to work in Photoshop beacause you never know if the picture is so bad or your screen causes it's poor quality.
I got satelite M100 PSMAAA-02006 with XP. I just updated Bios on V3.0. After update speakers are not working but the audio jack is working so with headphone I can listen but not through notebook speakers and the media keys on top of keyborad play, pause, stop, next, back, home page etc are not responding too.
Any one knows the solution about this. Or is it possible to get the old BIOS? Though I dont know aboutt previous version too.
need quick help. Plz answer asap.
I doubt that this happened due the BIOS update. Have you loaded the default settings after BIOS update?
Did you choose the correct BIOS update?
Normally you can hear sound through the notebook speakers if you unplug the headset. Make sure that sound is not muted, you can do this with the key combination FN+ESC.
Regarding the media keys I would recommend reinstalling Toshiba Common Modules. You can find it on the Toshiba website.
BIOS problem: I was updating *BIOS* by WinFlash and my laptop "freezed" so BIOS is DAMAGED. Laptop does't boot up.
I was updating my XP laptop to *BIOS 3.00* version.
I dont think you can do much if the laptop froze during a BIOS Update. I would send it to an ASP for a quote.
I have recently set up my daughter as a new user, and I have noticed that I have a user named "ASP.NET Machine A...'s account. which has definitely not been installed by myself. It is a limited account, password protected however it does not appear in the "Welcome" screen neither as a User in Documents and Settings.
My first reflexes were to delete this user but I was suggested to enquire before acting.
Please advise how to proceed !
Have M100, docking station, and Samsung SyncMaster 910TM LCD monitor. Docking station has DVI output as well as the monitor. Do anyone know if M100 supports DVI or analogue only?
Some Portege R100 specification says that Video DVI-D (24pin digital only) port is not available and not supported.
Forgive me in advance if this sounds a bit sketchy but my hubby is the useful one with these things but as his time is limited with work, I thought I would try and get some help in advance for when he gets home.
I purchased a M100 to take with us on our holidays mainly to just watch DVDs for the kids and some web browsing so didn?t need anything fancy or new the guy we got it from has installed Ubuntu 9.10 Linux.
1. We can?t connect to the internet, the wireless LED light on top is still amber (I presume it should be green once all is well and connected), even though my husband has done the usual things that has connected our other 3 laptops to the wireless. He downloaded the user manual and it states to activate the wireless to press shift+F8, but this doesn?t seem to be doing anything.
2. We can?t play DVDs, the guy we got if from says he burned a CD from it, but when we asked about watching DVDs he said he didn?t try any to know, when we insert the DVD it says we have to download a codex, which hubby is fine with doing if he could connect to the internet.
Portege M100 is pretty old notebook model and definitely not supported for Linux operating system so if you want to use all functions described in users manuals you must use supported WXP.
What you should do is to install operating system using original recovery installations CDs.
Did you get them with your notebook?
If you need right installations order list please let us know.
I have recently had to return my laptop to get a faulty HD replaced and have had difficulties re-installing all the drivers for W2K. I do not hold any Recovery CD.
After installing W2K, Device Manager displayed about 11 items requiring drivers (and one unknown device). I installed these drivers from the Toshiba site for this model but couldn't get any support to find out if they needed to be installed in any particular order. Device Manager now looks okay but i'm still having problems with the Modem (Toshiba Software Modem). The diagnostics tab reports that the modem couldn't open a port.
Only COM1 and LPT1 appear under Ports in Device Manager.
you sett up a new system without a recovery CD you have to install the drivers and tools in the right order.
Looks like an keyboard malfunction but did you check if the external keyboard would function properly? Do this?
You will need a new keyboard and need to replace the old one?
The compatible keyboard could be ordered from an local service partner? otherwise you can check some offers in the internet?
I have a used Protege M100, on which I recently carried out a clean install of Windows XP Pro (SP3).
Unfortunately, as a novice, I didn't back up my drivers.
I have been on the Toshiba site and have downloaded everything for this model (M100 Protege Centrino), I printed off the 'contents and installation order for windows XP' and loaded all the drivers as best i could in the order suggested.
However, some items were not available to download, or I could not understand the references.
I downloaded and installed the Atheros client utility and the Cisco aironet Client utility, as well as Configfree, but could find nothing to match the description 'wireless network driver'.
Perhaps as a result of this, or not? the above client utilities and ConfigFree (connection doctor) as well as some other diagnostic software downloads tell me that i have no Wireless Lan hardware installed... but I know that it was there and I never took it out !
Can someone tell me what else I can do?
I believe you have simply not installed the right WLan driver.
The Port?g? M100 was equipped definitely with a internal minPCI WLan card and you should see it in the device manager under network adapter. It should appear either as a unknown device (if no driver was installed) or as a Intel/Atheros/Toshiba/Cisco Wlan card.
Fact is that there are different Port?g? M100 models with different internal minPCI WLan cards and I think you used non compatible driver.
Please check the single WLan drivers released on the Toshiba driver page and check if one would enable your internal WLan card.
Furthermore you could use the Toshiba WLan portal to get the newest drivers for Atheros/Intel cards.
Can I upgrade my 1.2 Ghz Banias chip to a 2.0 Ghz Dothan chip now that BIOS 1.5 supports Dothan?
This is absolutely not possible!
There is no bios support and you are running out of thermal specifications!
I am getting an error on shutting down my M100 and read that this is related to docking, which I do not do, nor intend to. It seems that an update is required to the docking driver, or it needs to be disabled, but I cannot find anything on the Toshiba site (none of the searches return anything at all) and I cannot find the docking driver reerred to. Any ideas, please ? It is not a disaster but is very inconvenient. Many thanks in advance.
As far as I know the ?Toshiba Mobile Extension? which you can find in the Control Panel is responsible for the Docking Station functions.
There you can make some changing. Furthermore I found an ?Mobile Extension? to download on the Toshiba website.
I have been using Ghost to re-image other desktops and laptops without any problems, either booting from DOS floppy, from CD ROM or using PXE networks services to boot the machines and load the PC-DOS supplied with Ghost and the DOS Ghost client.
However with the Portege M100 (which is the only Tosh machine I have tried so far) I manage to get the PC-DOS loaded and the Ghost client begins to load but hangs at the splash screen and is unusable requiring a reboot.
Has anyone else had this issue or know of any fix I can use to allow me to manage my Portege OS's with Ghost.
Well, I have had a similar problem with other unit. I have solved it with completely formatting the HDD.
I don?t know if this procedure will solve your issue but you can try it.
I would like to kill and disable the integrated mouse of my M100 because it is completely mad.
It moves by itself and when i connect a mouse from usb and i try to control the cursor, it doesnt stop the movement.
In facts there is a problem with the internal mouse that goes upward without control, so i cant use the mouse.
Plugin a usb mouse doesnt stop it. I tried to uninstall from manager but it always reinstall automtatically.
My Bios version is ACPI v 1.20 and doesnt give the possibility to unable the integrated mouse.
Will a newer version give this ability?
Is there a program that would disable the integrated mouse so i can only use the external mouse connected trough usb.
You can disable the mouse very easy. Either use FN+F9 key combination or disable it in mouse properties.
I just hope the notebook is preinstalled with recovery image or adequate mouse drivers.
my dougher pushed hard to the keyboard on my portege M100 and now the cursor moves round the screen.
I think the accupoint joystick on the keyboard is damaged.
How can i deselect the accupoint joystick and using only a usb mouse ?
Hmmm?. I?m not 100% sure if you will be able to disable it but if this option exists then you could find it somewhere in the ?mouse? settings.
To access these settings you should go to the control panel -> mouse -> Hardware tab -> Properties.
>How can I select the bios while booting the laptop?
You should press the ESC button sand then F1 to access the Toshiba BIOS.
Please help, I have 10 pcs M100, and 7 of them have no setting in Bios for "CPU Dynamic Frequencies Setting" (set the CPU speed, always low, always high, dynamic). The notebook that don't have that setting always run at 598 MHz. I already check with Sisoft Sandra and in windows system properties. The properties always show that the notebooks have Pentium-M 1,2GHz running at 598MHz. No different between running with ac adapter or battery.
The other one with the CPU Dynamic Frequencies Setting, can dynamically adjust the CPU clock. They can run at 1200MHz normally.
The Dynamic CPU Frequency mode is available in the Toshiba HWSetup.
There you can switch between the dynamically switchable mode, always high and always low mode.
None of the Vista drivers work for Windows 7 so I switched to XP Professional and still NO drivers work?
Is there a special way to install them after installation of Windows?
It would be interesting to know what you mean with none of the drivers are working. Do you get an error message or what happens exactly?
Regarding the Windows 7 question I think it?s normal that the Vista drivers are not working for Windows 7 because the Portege M100 is very old notebook so I doubt that Windows 7 will run properly on it.
By the way, on the Toshiba website you can find an installation instructions document. Use this list a recommended driver installation order.
Question: Portege M100 - How to replace the RTC battery?
Hello, the RTC battery of my Portege M100 is flat. I manage to order one from the internet but I can't locate it. I dismantle almost every part of the computer, but if someone could just guide me and give the procedure du replace it, it would be great. Thanks in advance!!
Answer:Portege M100 - How to replace the RTC battery?
Look first at the wireless lan card, there?s a slot an under the slot is the minipci-wlan-card located. Near the wireless lan card slot is some little cover, this cover must be removed (gently). The RTC battery is located in some white insulator, but before peeling that little battery out, you must disconnect the battery from the mainboard. After disconnecting it, just lift the RTC up and place the new one there.
P.s.: If you feel uncomfortable in replacing the batt, then ask some techie to help you.
on the back on the computer.
built in, or do the 2 slots contain ALL the system memory?
Which notebook model you have?
My Portege M100 has an Unknown Devece showing up as *Texas Instruments OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller* anyone know where I can download a driver for this?
There is no driver for firewire port. Just install Chipset utility and everything will be OK.
Have you bought used one M100 or you try to make clean OS installation?
I have a Portege M100. For no apparent reason it no longer goes into standby mode automatically if left on battery power. I have checked power saver settings and these all appear to be ok eg standby after 5 mins etc.
Does your notebook go in standby with connected AC/DC adaptor or does this happen only in standby mode?
By the way, what happens if you choose the standby mode manually via start > shut down > standby. Does this work?
In your case I would try to reinstall Toshiba Power Saver. You can find it on the Toshiba page. As far as I know Portege M100 is in *Archive* because it?s pretty old notebook.
Dear All, my Portege M100 is still on!
the backlight on the screen seems to have gone out.
Is the laptop still in warranty and how do I get this fixed?
Is there anything I an do manually?
Unfortunately there is not much that you can do alone. I presume that FL inverter is defective. Contact Authorized service partner in your country. They can help you.
Help please, what to do?
I assume you have found the Win XP drivers for Portege M100 on the Toshiba European driver page.
There you can find also the installation instruction which shows you right installation order!
Yes, you need to install drivers in the right order.
Furthermore you will find the Intel display driver and the Intel Chip Set Utility. These are the drivers requested in your message!
On the Toshiba European driver page you could find the Portege M100 drivers.
There is also an installation instruction which you should follow.
The Common Modules has to be installed at the beginning. Without the Common Modules the BIOS would not be possible.
The Atheros WLan driver doesn?t work because your Portege M100 could use another WLan card? M100 supports different Wlan cards and possibly M100 has been equipped with Intel or other Wlan card?
I need ethernet driver for my laptop. It is Portege M100.
I download all drivers from the drivers download but still ethernet is not working.
What you mean with network is not working?
Have you yellow marks in device manager?
Can you connect to a network?
Please explain this more exact.
Did you download the driver here?
It would be also interesting which OS do you have.
since a month, my portable Toshiba protege M100 has a problem when we use skype, the microphone integrted doesn't fonction.
When i call my firend, i listen him but he don't listen me, so can you help me please to make it done.
Try turning up the MIC Boost in the Volume Settings, and ensure the MIC volume is turned up.
Also check the Skype Options, maybe you need to select the MIC device or increase the volume.
I have tryed to replace the cdrw/dvd combo drive to a dvd rw drive but when it loads it says IDE 1 error but its weird you cannot boot off of it but in xp you can use it.
I'm sure its something to do with the Bios.
> I have tried to replace the cdrw/dvd combo drive to a dvd rw drive but when it loads it says IDE 1 error but its weird you cannot boot off of it but in xp you can use it.
I think you have used a CD/DVD drive with wrong master/slave/c-sel settings.
If the drive doesn?t support the right settings, the BIOS will not recognize it and the IDE #1 error will appear? like in your case?
You should know that not all drives are compatible?. I?m not quite sure if your user manual contains the info of supported and compatible drives but you could check it?
Otherwise I would recommend contacting the authorized service partner in your country to get a list of compatible drives or to order a right one.

I have bought a second-hand Portege M100 (model number PPM10E) and am having serious problems installing the wireless mini-pci adapter that came with it.
When I turn on the wireless via the switch on the front, the light on the lid comes up amber.
Windows XP (Pro, SP1 and SP2 update) cannot see the device. Device Manager recognises 2 devices with problems: "Network Controller" and "Other Device".
I have downloaded all listed drivers for this model, and installed them (or tried to!) in the order specified in the Installation Instructions file (from the same Toshiba download drivers page for this model).
I have also installed Everest Home Edition, and it sees the wireless adapter, and tells me it's an Intel 2200 BG.
I have tried to acquire updated drivers from Intel and from driverguide.com but none of these will take, either - not even on a clean install, substituting them for the Toshiba-supplied driver.
The wireless card works perfectly in one other non-Toshiba notebook, also running Win XP Pro - so I'm assuming there's some software/hardware conflict with this Toshiba laptop!
I have tried to "update driver" on the 2 problem devices 1) by pointing them (via Device Manager / update driver) at every (unzipped) downloaded set of files. No joy.
2) connecting to my router via ethernet cable and allowing Windows to search online for drivers. No joy there either.
1. You said the Wlan card works in non Toshiba notebook. Did you change the WLan card from your Toshiba to the other notebook?
2. You are not quite sure if it's an Intel or Atheros Wlan card (otherwise it makes no sense to install an atheros client with an Intel Wlan card). Would you please post the PnP-ID of the device(s) (DeviceManager -> Properties -> Details -> Hardware-ID)?
The left screw has come out & been lost. This has left the screen very "wobbly" and it seems to have popped out of a catch or two, just on the left side as the case/back of screen seem to gape slightly from the front at times down by the hinge.
I would like to try to replace the screw & get it back to "normal" but I can't find any instructions or advice as to how the screen fits - can anyone help me to clip it back together & rplace the screw?
I think there are no manuals or instructions how to replace something on a notebook. Such technical documents are not for public, they only available for authorized service provider.
In my opinion it?s a serious hardware malfunction like mainboard or CPU but without special diagnostic tools it?s not possible to say more about this especially on this virtual way. So you must get in contact with an authorized service provider and ask for help. The guys have good diagnostic tools and can help you to get rid of this.
If you don?t know where nearest ASP is, have a look on Toshiba page!
I have recently acquired a M100 Portege 1.2ghz Model no PPM1DE-0000Y-EN. The hard drive had been cleaned so I installed Windows XP with Service Pack 3 . I do not have a Toshiba Utilities and driver CD.
At the moment my main issue is that there is no sound and I get messages of " no audio output device". I can watch a DVD but again its silent as the internal speakers are not functioning. I am a novice so if you have advice please try to not make it to technical but in simple terms that I can understand. There are probably a number of issues that I have not discovered yet ie Power Saver, Wireless etc.
I think you are missing the SOUNDMAX program for your sound. At least that's what I had with my M200, but it seems M100 and M200 are pretty similar. Getting SOUNDMAX installed will solve the problem. The easiest way is probably to get a utilities CD somehow.
And that's probably the only way too. Since even if you get it working without, you're still left without the other Toshiba utilities (which may be pretty crucial, like power saving, ability to use buttons and FN keys, ability to use the touchpad, etc.).
Had to rebuild my beloved Portege M100 following a hard drive failure.
Everything works fine except the video player.
Tried using Windows Media Player and Intervideo Win DVD but both close as soon as the video starts.
WMP says that it is a problem with a codec called ivivideo which comes form Intervideo or Corel as they now are.
However their site is less than helpful and I just cannot find a way to update this.
It?s small tool/player which can be downloaded for free.
It plays most files problem free.
Question: Portege series, different battery life on R100 and M100?
I want to buy a new notebook with high battery life for mobile working. The R100 and M100 are shortlisted, but does anybody know if there are differences in battery life. I have tested the two NBs at my dealer, but I have no experience to work with them over a long time.
Answer:Portege series, different battery life on R100 and M100?
I had the honor to test these two notebooks in our company. They are both developed as business model for high mobility and battery life. On the one side you have the R100 with a ULV Centrino with 900Mhz (ULV = Ultra Low Voltage) and a lithium-ion-polymer battery. This combination enables a battery life of 2 hours and with the second additional battery up to 6.4 hours.
On the other side you have the M100 with a LV Centrino with 1200Mhz (LV = Low Voltage) and lithium-ion battery. If you need only one battery the discharging in use is about 4.5 hours and with an additional battery up to very good 8.5 hours.
So in my opinion these notebooks are really well designed and accomplish the specifications of high mobility. The M100 has the higher battery life and performance.
If you have further question, ask me.
but can't do it in the Bios or Windows.
where i can do it ?
As far as I know this notebook has a Intel graphic card.
for example on a ATI graphic cards it?s possible to set the shared memory manually but on a Intel graphic card the shared memory will be set automatically.
Therefore you cannot find any options for changing this value.
Have a Portege M100 for general use with WXP Pro installed.
Recently decided to upgrade to a DVD burner from the DVD-rom, so bought a Sony DW-Q250A rewriter.
The problem is, once this happens, the DVD drive then disappears from 'my computer' window and isn't visible in 'device manager' either until I remove the drive, refit and then scan for p'n'p devices in device manager, then it reappears like nothing happened.
I thought it may have been a conflict with the IDE bus (i.e both drives - HDD & DVD - configured as master) so I put a jumper on the HDD to make it the slave drive (looks like its a firmware change on the DVD drive to do this) but it just created more probs..I then got an additional "IDE #0 ERROR" message when I did this and the machine wouldn't boot from HDD.
firstly I would explain you the IDE #0 error: it?s absolutely comprehensible since the HDD is the *FIRST* drive of all and it must stay the *FIRST" drive, which means that you shouldn?t jumper it to a slave drive. It must be an master, otherwise, like in your case, the machine won?t boot.
So, you have 2 IDE channels (Primary and Secondary IDE channel), and every channel has an Master and Slave. Apart from the HDD which is on the Primary channel , your DVD drive is innately on the secondary channel configured as the master drive.
I have no definitive solution for you but I can give you some hints. Begin with downloading the latest BIOS for your machine and update it to the latest version. Then download newest drivers and install them. After this, check for a firmware upgrade for your DVD drive and last but not least check the microsoft database for known issues since no similar issues are known to me with toshiba drives in toshiba machines.
I have recently got an M100 with a pair of the optional slim-bay batteries. I have a question regarding the charging / discharging sequence.
It seems that when charging main battery is charged 1st followed by the secondary(removable) battery. That seems fair enough, and makes sense.
However when it comes to discharging the main battery seems to discharge 1st with the secondary battery not dropping from it's 99% value.
I would have expected the machine to discharge the secondary battery 1st so that in the case of having 2 secondary batteries you can swap them over without any worries. Also when you then need to install the CD drive which I also have, then you have max battery life left in the internal main battery.
Are there any settings to change the way in which my machine seems to be working?
I am not technician and can not explain how it works exactly. Everything I know is that all this is controlled by power supply electronic and user has no influence on it and, as far as I know, there are no settings where you can specify the power consumption.
I agree with your opinion but I think there is nothing to do.

however, i cant get the sound to work?
I have a Portege M100 (prob M100-112) that has been "hacked" about by its previous owner and I am trying to re-install all the tools and drivers.
In particular I want to upgrade the BIOS to v1.50 (from 1.30).
The BIOS upgrade tool (windows) complains that the common modules are not installed, but when I attempt to install the common modules the installer just hangs with no user interface visible and no errors.
I don?t know which installation order you have used and what items you have installed before but fact is that ?Common modules? must be installed at first before you start to install other Toshiba tools and utilities.
Have you used this order?
Do you try to install THIS common modules?
I have a Portege M100 which I found quite slow until I discover it was running half speed (IE 600mhz). I tried everything in Bios, and in Toshiba utility, but nothing to do: still running at 600Mhz.
Is there somthing I missed? is there a "special trick" to do to allow it running full speed?
Thank's in advance for anybody's help!!!
regulating the speed setting of the system.
Was your machine in repair or did someone exchange the CPU?
Sometimes the first couple of seconds, the external Monitor is being used.
When Windows reaches the XP Pro login screen, external Monitor is being switched off and only after opening the TFT Display I can switch back by pressing Fn-5.
I manually switch back to 1024 everytime, but the system uses 1280 after a reboot.
Do you have a clue how to FIX 1024 and how to maintain external when docked?
I don?t know 100% how to fix this several issues but you should check firstly if any updates will help you.
For example check on the Toshiba page if the new BIOS, graphic card driver and Display Service for external Monitor.
The display driver from Intel has a feature, as one of its specification, to remember a display device used at previous system shutdown, and use the device to display images when the system boots next time as long as the device exists.
1. Shut down the system with images displayed only on a LCD.
2. With the LCD closed, dock the machine to a Docker which has a CRT connected.
3. Powering on the system will display images on the CRT while the system is in the start-up process.
However, the display driver will switch the display device at the timing of Windows LOG On screen and will display the images only on the LCD, which is the previous display device.
4. Since the LCD is closed, a user will never know where the images are being displayed.
My wife's laptop is a 3 or 4 year old Portege M100 which is seems a good machine although the hard drive failed and had to be replaced recently.
However there is also a problem with the battery charging.
The machine works fine when connected to the AC power whether the battery is in or not but as soon as you remove the power cable it stops working immediately ie everything including the fan stops instantly.
The battery sign on the top edge of the lid/screen is blinking orange.
I assumed it was the battery that had given up and bought another toshiba one (ie not a compatible but the real thing) and slotted it in but just the same.
This problem precedes the hard disk having been changed by the way.
Any thought or ideas ?
Are you sure that this is a battery LED?
As far as I know the battery LED shows the condition of the battery charge.
Green means fully charged and orange means being charged. But in both cases the LED does not flash/blink.
Only the AC adaptor LED flashes orange if the power supply malfunctions and the voltage is abnormal.
But if the battery LED flashes then I would assume that this code refers to the battery malfunction.
You should always buy a battery recommended by Toshiba and not any other 3rd party products.
The HDD manufacturer is not important but if the battery died then you should purchase one which is listed as supported part by Toshiba?
I have a Portege M100.
Since ysterday the computer does not startup. When I push the power button, I hear the sound of the fan starting to work, but nothing else happens. The power indicator keeps blinking in orange.
I have removed the battery and tried starting up the computer with the power adapter plugged in, but nothing changes.
could eventually be the RAM, so please check the RAM modules and remove 1 module if you have 2 of them installed.
Otherwise, I would check if some another RAM module is available and install the well-known working module. If this still does not help then I would highly recommend you to bring your machine to an authorized service partner for a hardware checkup/repair.
Please give some feedback about your situation..
P.S.: you can try to remove battery and AC and leaving the machine without any power source for about 24 hours. Perhaps this helps?
After a recent reinstall of winXP I downloaded all the latest drivers/software for my model (portege M100) but after installation I still have a yellow exclamation mark under 'other devices' which it says ia a network controller.
I just dont know what it is?
What is with Intel wireless card? Is this card installed properly? As far as I know you need to install Intel Wireless LAN Card Driver V.1.1.6.0.
I recently purchased a new Portege M100 but did not receive the accompanying Tools & Utilities CD ROM. I would like to perform a clean installation with a standard Windows XP SP2 CD (not the Toshiba Recovery CD)and have downloaded the necessary drivers and utilities from the support website.
Can someone please list the exact order (in accordance with the Tools & Utilities CD) to use when installing the drivers and utilities for a Windows XP system? The Windows updates (Quick Fix Engineering executables) are not necessary, since I'll have already downloaded all Windows updates prior to continuing with the drivers installation.
As far as I know after the Windows installation you have to install the Chipset utility and then common modules. Then display driver, sound driver, controls etc.
But why do you want to install the OS from the original Windows CD?
You can use the Recovery CD and then you can remove all programs which you don?t need.
Believe me. This is an easiest way.

As a result, the reading on credit default swaps for investment-grade debt has seen the highest annual increase since 2011.
ET Intelligence Group: Cracks in the global credit market seem to be getting deeper with yields surging to alarming levels. This could enhance volatility in the stock markets that have had a rough ride since September. US corporate bond yields hit a near nineyear high of 4.38 per cent, and Asian corporate yields in dollar terms reached 5.67 per cent, the highest level in seven years.
US companies, for obvious reasons, are under the microscope as investors seek to ascertain whether Wall Street favourites would expand in a cost-inflationary environment. Investment-grade bonds in the US, based on the current returns, may post their worst performance since 2008.
In the past two months, investors have lost more than eight trillion dollars globally. Historically, elevated yields have resulted in steep stock corrections. Widening credit spreads resulted in 16 per cent, 19 per cent, and 14 per cent declines, respectively, in the S&P 500 in April-June 2010, May-September 2011 and June 2015-January 2016.
Weakness in the S&P 500 will have an impact on global stocks as Wall Street's contribution to global market capitalisation now stands at 62.8 per cent, the highest level since the mid-1990s.
Laurence Balanco, a technical analyst with CLSA, wrote in a note that corporate bond yields could harden to 4.89 per cent.
Companies with higher credit rating — AAA and AA — have outperformed in the US since September, indicating increasing investor preference for safety.
As investors move toward safer debt papers, the spread between junk bonds and investment-grade bonds expanded 47 basis points since September to 175 basis points.
Similarly, equity investors may prune their risky bets, such as emerging-market stocks. That could weigh on Indian shares.
To be sure, with the rupee staging a smart recovery in lockstep with the recent declines in oil prices globally, foreign portfolio investors have bought about $723 million in Indian equities in November so far. They were net sellers over the preceding three months.

Shockers junior guard Conner Frankamp led all scorers with 19 points and made three 3-pointers to earn Most Outstanding Player of the Tournament. Sophomore Markis McDuffie had 16 points and was 11-for-11 from the free-throw line, while freshman Landry Shamet dropped in 14 points and made the all-tournament team.
Wichita State has won 15 in a row since losing to Illinois State 76-72 on Jan. 14.
"I think that kind of woke us up after losing to Illinois State," Frankamp said. "And then after that loss, we got right back to it and started working extremely hard and trying to fix anything that was going wrong with the team. We did a great job of doing that, and like I said, this team came together really well, and it worked out well for us."
Illinois State made thirteen 3-pointers in its 63-50 victory over Southern Illinois University Carbondale in the semifinals Saturday. Twenty-four hours later, the Redbirds had lost their shooting touch from beyond the arc. They were 6-for-28 against Wichita State and finished at 29 percent overall (17-for-58).
Senior Paris Lee led the Redbirds with 18 points. Junior MiKyle McIntosh had 16 points.
"We picked a bad day to have a bad day, especially shooting the ball. Certainly, part of it was their defense, but part of it was us," said Illinois State coach Dan Muller, whose club fell behind for good just 43 seconds into the contest.
"I could not be more proud of these guys, (how they) continued to fight and stay together. We're looking forward to playing again this year. We're hopeful. But we just got beat by a good team today. They played better than us."
Wichita State was 26-for-37 from the foul line and shot 31 free throws in the second half as Illinois State lost 6-foot-7 McIntosh, 6-9 sophomore Phil Fayne and 6-8 senior Deontae Hawkins to fouls.
"If you get your bigs in foul trouble against this team and you don't have the depth with the bigs, you're in trouble," Muller said. "Not to say we couldn't have snapped out of it and recovered, but we didn't."
Muller didn't seem optimistic about the Redbirds' chances to receive an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament, particularly with how his team played Sunday.
Illinois State has has nonconference losses against Murray State (16-17), TCU (17-14) and Tulsa (14-15). It also suffered a home defeat against San Francisco (20-12).
"If they go based on one game they saw ... (They) probably don't watch as many games of ours as they watch other teams, but hopefully they'll look at the full body of work we have," Muller said. "Obviously, we want to be in.
"I think we should be in. I think we're good enough. But it's out of our control at this point."
Wichita State's position is so very different. Marshall, whose name will be linked with the opening at the University of Missouri after Kim Anderson was fired Sunday, said the Shockers have a team as talented as the one that reached the Final Four in 2014. That year, Wichita State was 35-0 until falling 78-76 to Kentucky on the same Scottrade Center floor.
"We had an undefeated team and we have a team that went to the Final Four," Marshall said. "This team's comparable. It really is. We've got so many weapons defensively. We play hard (and) try to play smart. ...We're very deep, pretty big, athletic, skilled, and talented. It's a good formula."
All-tournament
Joining Frankamp and Shamet on the all-tournament team were Illinois State's Lee, Missouri State's Alize Johnson and Evansville's Jaylon Brown.

The KwaNdebele Community spent the day commemorating the 1986 uprising against independence, for the first time ever.
The Ndebele community in Mpumalanga feels their role in the struggle against apartheid has not been recognised. They commemorated the communities uprising against the Apartheid government's enforced independence in 1986.
More than 100 people died 32 years ago during the uprisings.
The KwaNdebele Community spent the day commemorating the 1986 uprising against independence for the first time ever.
The community was split in two with the Apartheid government trying to force independence on the community.
Many here feel the Ndebele people have not received any recognition for the role they played in the fight against apartheid.
They've called for both the provincial and national government to hold an annual commemoration of the 1986 uprising.
Meanwhile, the Human Rights Commission says many people also disappeared during the uprising and their families still do not know what happened to them.
The Apartheid government created homelands in South Africa, to move the majority of the Black population.
They were prohibited from living in the urban areas of South Africa.
They started giving the homelands independence in order to stop supporting them economically.
And while, the KwaNdebele Community in Emthambothini feel their efforts against apartheid has been forgotten, they say, this has not stopped them from celebrating their contribution to democracy.

The lesbian couple's public proposal in the Guangdong Foreign Studies University on June 21. Photo from Gender in China's blog.
Last year, during our university's 50th anniversary, 50 pairs of heterosexual couples had their marriage ceremonies together. There was never any assumption that their actions would bring harm to others. […] How come expressions of love between LGBT people brings harm to others?
The deputy secretary confiscated Wang's graduation certificate on June 22 to make sure that she would not talk to the media. She also put pressure on Wang's parents, telling them that their daughter was under the control of an "illegal organization" and asked them to report "her daughter missing" to the police so that they could break into her apartment and search for evidence of her connection to an illegal organization.
Secretary Du told my family in a serious manner that I had participated in illegal and inappropriate activities, which will have a huge impact on my future. She said I was an excellent student but had changed. I gave up a work-related trip for my parents, and they saw this as "a turn for the better," "nipping this in the bud." Her imagining something that did not happen might help her claim victory. She didn't care how she has harmed me.

Bumalo indický (Harpadon nehereus) je asijská dravá ryba z čeledi ještěrohlavcovitých (Synodontidae). Je také znám jako "bummalo" nebo "bombajská kachna". Tato ryba obývá příbřežní oblasti na severu Indického oceánu a v dospělosti může na délku měřit až 40 centimetrů, průměrně však není delší než 25 centimetrů.

Domorodé názvy
Bengálština: bamaloh

Gudžarátština: બુમલો

Sinhálština: බොම්බෙලි,

Urdština: بمبل مچھلی

Nomenklatura
Bumalo indický byl popsán v roce 1822 přírodovědcem Francisem Hamiltonem. Původ termínu "bombajská kachna" je nejasný. Podle jedné populární etymologické teorie vznikla tato přezdívka v době, kdy se bumalo indický hojně lovil (60. léta 19. století) a sušené maso těchto ryb bylo přepravováno po celé Indii poštovními vlaky s názvem Bombay Daak (doslova "Bombajská pošta"). Zápach z masa byl velmi silný a byl s těmito vlaky rychle spojen. Následně zdomácněla fráze: "Smrdíš jako Bombay Daak!". Odtud to byl už jen kousek k podobě "Smrdíš jako Bombay Duck!" tedy jako bombajská kachna.

Nicméně, v Oxfordském slovníku se "bombajská kachna" objevila už v roce 1850, tedy dva roky před vybudováním železniční dráhy vedoucí před Bombaj, po které vlaky Bombay Daak jezdily. Etymologové tudíž tuto teorii o páchnoucích vlacích neuznávají jako pravděpodobnou.

Podle domorodých Bangladéšanů byl termín "bombajská kachna" poprvé použit Robertem Clivem (1725–1774), který ochutnal maso této ryby, když dobyl pro anglickou korunu Bengálsko. Maso prý chutnalo trochu jako kachna a vonělo štiplavě jako noviny nebo poštovní dokumenty pocházející z Bombaje. Termín byl později popularizován mezi britskou veřejností, když se bumalo indický začal objevovat na talířích v indických restauracích ve Velké Británii.

Biologie
Po většinu roku obývají bumalové indičtí hlubší příbřežní mořské vody a žijí na písčitém či bahnitém dně, nicméně také se shromažďují během monzunů ve velkých hejnech v deltách řek, aby se krmili. Jsou to dravé ryby. Třou se šestkrát ročně. Dožívají se maximálně 5 let a pohlavně zralí jsou ve věku 1 roku.

Výskyt, ohrožení
Bumalo indický žije v tropických oblastech Indo-Pacifiku. Ve velkém množství se tyto ryby loví ve vodách u Maháráštry v Lakadivském moři, pro místní jsou důležitým dílem ročního úlovku. Bumalo indický obývá také Bengálský záliv a Jihočínské moře, i když v menším počtu.

Podle kritérií IUCN se tato ryba řadí mezi téměř ohrožené živočichy. Hlavním důvodem je nadměrný rybolov a degradace estuárií.

Gastronomie

Tyto ryby jsou často sušeny a před konzumací soleny, protože jejich maso nemá výraznou chuť. Při sušení je zápach z ryb extrémně silný a proto se obvykle přepravují ve vzduchotěsných nádobách. Bumalo indický je v některých částech Indie velmi populární součástí jídelníčku. Pokud se bumalo indický neusuší a nepodá se solí, je většinou usmažen nebo uvařen a podáván s kari, k tomuto účelu se používá čerstvé maso.

Vývoz
V 90. letech 20. století se ve Velké Británii za rok průměrně zkonzumovalo 13 tun těchto ryb. Poté, co se ukázalo, že spousta dovážených mořských ryb je kontaminována salmonelou, byl v roce 1996 Evropskou komisí (ES) dovoz rybího masa z Indie zakázán. Výjimku mělo maso dovážené z vládou schválených konzerváren, které procházely přísnými kontrolami. Protože bumalo indický se nezpracovával v takových podnicích, nastal de facto zákaz jeho dovážení. V důsledku toho proběhla kampaň s názvem "Save Bombay Duck" (Zachraňte bombajskou kachnu). Nejvyšší indická potravinářská komise se obrátila na ES s žádostí, aby byly upraveny předpisy a bumalo indický mohl být znovu dostupný na evropském trhu. Předpisy byly změněny: maso "bombajských kachen"" může být dále sušeno na čerstvém vzduchu přímo na plážích, ale musí být následně zabaleno do speciálních obalů schválených ES. Díky tomu se bumalo indický vrátil nejen na evropský trh, ale rozšířil se i na trh kanadský. Tato ryba je prodávána v kanadských městech, kde žijí větší indické menšiny, tedy například v Torontu a Montreálu. V Kanadě je tato ryba známá jako "bumla".

Přestože bumalo indický jakožto jídlo je populární hlavně v Bengálsku, jižním Gudžarátu, Maháráštru, Goi a Karnátace, stále častěji je konzumován i v ostatních jihoasijských státech, zejména v Bangladéši.

Traveling To Amsterdam (Holland, The Netherlands) | How To Vacation In The Netherlands Like A Supermodel & Famous Fashion Model
Beautiful Dutch Fashion Model Luna Bijl Modeling For The Cover Of Vogue Netherlands.
Above: Beautiful Dutch Fashion Model Luna Bijl Modeling For The Cover Of Vogue Netherlands.
The beautiful city of Amsterdam in the Netherlands is full of colorful homes, canals, and bridges, making it one of Europe's most picturesque capitals. According to the Dutch constitution, Amsterdam is the capital of the Netherlands, although the parliament and the Dutch government have been situated in The Hague since 1588, along with the Supreme Court and the Council of State.
Amsterdam is the ideal place for a one of a kind city trip: there is so much to see and do in Amsterdam, plus the city's history (dating back to the 13th century), tolerant culture, and ethnic diversity top off a truly unique experience. Follow your favorite supermodels and fashion models as they show you the historic heart of the city, the beautiful narrow houses and courtyards, as well as their favorite restaurants to grab a bite to eat and get a few drinks.
Above: Traveling To Amsterdam (Holland, The Netherlands) | How To Vacation In The Netherlands Like A Supermodel & Famous Fashion Model.
Amsterdam is the capital and most populous municipality of the Netherlands. Its status as the capital is mandated by the Constitution of the Netherlands, although it is not the seat of the government, which is The Hague. Amsterdam has a population of approximately 850,000 within the city proper, and 2,411,000 in the Amsterdam metropolitan area. The city is located in the province of North Holland in the west of the country but is not its capital, which is Haarlem. The Netherlands has over 17 million people, and their main language is Dutch.
Only once during its history was Amsterdam both "capital" and seat of government. Between 1808 and 1810, during the Kingdom of Holland, King Louis Napoleon resided in Amsterdam and declared the city capital of his kingdom and seat of government. To accommodate the king, the grand seventeenth-century Town Hall of Amsterdam, prime example of the republican values that were prevalent for so long in the Netherlands, was converted into a Royal Palace.
In 1810 the Netherlands was annexed by the French Empire and King Louis Napoleon was replaced by a French governor, who took up residence in the Royal Palace in Amsterdam. From 1810 to 1813 Amsterdam kept its position of capital city somewhat, as Emperor Napoleon declared the city to be the third city of the Empire (after Paris and Rome) and an imperial residence. In December 1813, after the fall of Napoleon and the accession of Prince William VI of Orange as Sovereign of the Netherlands, The Hague was restored as the seat of government.

Amsterdam is not only the commercial capital of the Netherlands and one of the top financial centers in Europe, but it is also the cultural capital of the Netherlands. The Amsterdam Stock Exchange, the oldest stock exchange in the world, is located in the city center. Amsterdam's main attractions, including its historic canals, the Rijksmuseum, the Van Gogh Museum, the Stedelijk Museum, Hermitage Amsterdam, the Anne Frank House, the Amsterdam Museum, its red-light district, and its many cannabis coffee shops draw more than 5 million international visitors per year. Amsterdam is also one of the world's most multicultural cities, with at least 177 nationalities represented.
Must-sees on any visitor's itinerary include the Anne Frank House, the Van Gogh Museum, and the world's only floating flower market. Rent a bike and join thousands of locals navigating Amsterdam's labyrinth streets, or just take in the sights on foot. For an unusual and memorable alternative to hotels, consider staying in a houseboat.

Traveling From Amsterdam (The Netherlands) To Manila & Exploring Paradise | How To Vacation In The Philippines Like A Supermodel
Above: Traveling From Amsterdam (The Netherlands) To Manila & Exploring Paradise | How To Vacation In The Philippines Like A Supermodel.
Manila, the capital of the Philippines, is a densely populated bayside city on the island of Luzon, which mixes Spanish colonial architecture with modern skyscrapers.
The Philippines, officially the Republic of the Philippines is a unitary sovereign and archipelagic country in Southeast Asia. Situated in the western Pacific Ocean, it consists of about 7,641 islands that are categorized broadly under three main geographical divisions from north to south: Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. The capital city of the Philippines is Manila and the most populous city is Quezon City, both part of Metro Manila. Bounded by the South China Sea on the west, the Philippine Sea on the east, and the Celebes Sea on the southwest, the Philippines shares maritime borders with Taiwan to the north, Vietnam to the west, Palau to the east, and Malaysia and Indonesia to the south.
The location of the Philippines on the Pacific Ring of Fire and close to the equator makes the Philippines prone to earthquakes and typhoons, but also endows it with abundant natural resources and some of the world's greatest biodiversity. The Philippines has a population of at least 100 million people. As of January 2018, it was the eighth most populated country in Asia and the 12th most populated country in the world. Approximately 10 million additional Filipinos live overseas, comprising one of the world's largest diasporas. Multiple ethnicities and cultures are found throughout the islands.
Manila is a large city and can easily appear overwhelming to visitors, but it's also one of the world's great cities and has a lot to offer. Lots of history, culture, and activities are available if you know where to go, so feel free to discover the Philippines (and the Filipino), through the vibrant capital city of Manila.
Metropolitan Manila encompasses six cities and 12 towns. Located on Manila Bay in the South China Sea, and bisected by the Pasig River, the capital of the Philippines is historic and modern, rich and poor. A popular sight is the walled area called Intramuros. The capital during Spanish colonization, Intramuros has retained old dungeons and gunpowder rooms but added art galleries and theaters. The city is filled with museums, shops, parks, and churches, plus enough nightlife to last until dawn.

Forbes magazine recently released the latest list of the world's most highly paid models. Ranked as the 5th highest paid model on the list of the highest paid models in the world is beautiful Dutch Victoria's Secret fashion model Doutzen Kroes who became super famous as one of the Victoria's Secret Angels (Doutzen Kroes was born in the village of Eastermar in the province of Friesland in the Netherlands) who modeled along with other Victoria's Secret Angels such as Alessandra Ambrosio, Adriana Lima, Miranda Kerr, and Candice Swanepoel. The Netherlands you said? That's right. The Netherlands, and they have some stunning beautiful fashion models in this beautiful northern European country.
Victoria's Secret model Doutzen Kroes is a Dutch model and actress, who is also one of the top Victoria's Secret Angels as of 2013. Doutzen Kroes started working for the Victoria's Secret brand in 2004 and became a Victoria's Secret Angel in 2008. Doutzen Kroes is also on contract with French beauty brand L'Oréal having been featured in many of their advertisements (which basically means superpower modeling earnings thanks to a superpower L'Oreal modeling contract). In 2012, Doutzen Kroes came in fifth on the Forbes list of the highest paid models in the world with earnings of approximately $6.9 million United States dollars for the year. Doutzen Kroes described herself as a "tomboy" in her youth, although she applied to a modeling agency in Holland when she was older. Doutzen Kroes was then sent to New York city, and after being cast a few times by legendary lingerie company Victoria's Secret she was asked to try out as a Victoria's Secret Angel. The first Victoria's Secret lingerie fashion campaign for Doutzen Kroes as the brand's newest Victoria's Secret Angel was "Supermodel Obsession".
Dutch fashion model Doutzen Kroes has been featured on the covers of Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Seventeen, Elle, Marie Claire, Glamour, W, Avantgarde, Dazed & Confused, and Numéro magazines. Doutzen Kroes also appears regularly in the Victoria's Secret catalogs and has walked for many of the Victoria's Secret fashion shows including the beautiful 2012 Victoria's Secret fashion show which featured famous singers Justin Bieber, Rihanna, and Bruno Mars. The fashion campaigns of Dutch model Doutzen Kroes include Gucci, Tommy Hilfiger, Versace, Valentino, Blumarine, and Calvin Klein for both their "White" label and their fragrance "Eternity". In 2005 Doutzen Kroes was selected as "Model Of The Year" on Vogue.com by its readers. Fashion model Doutzen Kroes was presented on the May 2007 cover of American Vogue magazine as one of the "World's Next Top Models" and also appeared in the famous 2008 Pirelli Calendar.
Victoria's Secret (a division of Limited Brands) continues to launch some of the industry's most intriguing and beautiful new faces. Among them: the beautiful blonde and incredibly sexy Dutch beauty Doutzen Kroes, who ranked 5th among the highest paid models on the list of the highest paid models in the world with estimated earnings of $6.9 million United States dollars over the past year. Dutch fashion model Doutzen Kroes has caught the eyes of fashion industry insiders, who say she could eventually rank among the top 3 highest paid models in the world and dominate the fashion modeling industry for many years.
Dutch fashion model Doutzen Kroes is in the official Frisian provincial campaign for the Frisian language which is her mother tongue. There is a wax figure of Doutzen Kroes in the Amsterdam branch of Madame Tussaud's wax museum. It is also interesting to note that from November 2009 to July 2010 Doutzen Kroes wrote a monthly column about her life for the Dutch edition of fashion magazine "Marie Claire". In February 2010 Dutch fashion model Doutzen Kroes returned to the fashion runways during fashion week for Prada with fellow Victoria's Secret Angels Alessandra Ambrosio and Miranda Kerr. Prada was praised by a former editor-in-chief of Glamour, Cosmopolitan, and Marie Claire magazines for using a curvy model such as Doutzen Kroes for the Prada Fashion Show. Since 2011 Doutzen Kroes has shot major fashion campaigns for both L'Oreal Paris and Tiffany & Co. Doutzen Kroes likes surfing and also practices jumping rope, speed skating, and shadow boxing to stay in shape and her secret obsessions are green juice and chocolate (to see her amazing fitness workouts please visit our "How To Your Guide To Beauty" and our "How To Look More Beautiful" sections of our fashion modeling website.
Dutch fashion model and Victoria's Secret Angel Doutzen Kroes is ranked as the 5th highest paid fashion model in the world (the world's highest paid models list) and is one of the few models in the world to have been selected as a Victoria's Secret Angel for the year 2012 (this is the type of fashion modeling contract that can enable a high fashion model to print money faster than a cash machine). Will the massive money jobs ever stop for the Dutch wonder known as Doutzen? A money making L'Oreal modeling contract as far as the eye can see booked alongside a Victoria's Secret modeling contract combined with other superpower fashion modeling contracts makes the beautiful Dutch beauty Doutzen Kroes the undisputed and rightful Dutch queen of advertising. With her girl next door beautiful looks and natural sweetness, fashion model Doutzen Kroes adds a touch of innocence to the Victoria's Secret portfolio of sexy bombshells. The Dutch beauty known as Doutzen Kroes is one of the Victoria's Secret brand's hottest star and when you factor in her Victoria's Secret modeling contract, her longstanding role as one of the favorite faces of Victoria's Secret, her ongoing presence with French beauty fashion company L'Oreal, her fashion magazine editorials, and her fashion advertisements for the best and the brightest of the fashion modeling industry, you have the makings of a true "Money Girl" making millions of dollars in the fashion modeling world.

ZARZAR MODELS takes you behind the scenes with Victoria's Secret Angels Candice Swanepoel and Miranda Kerr as they celebrate the Victoria's Secret's 2012 Swim Collection at the Thompson Beverly Hills Hotel pool and the Victoria's Secret Beverly Center.
ZARZAR MODELS is highlighting the top models of the past 15 years in its high fashion modeling series "Focus On Models". Today we focus on beautiful blonde Dutch model Melissa Tammerijn from the Netherlands (from Holland). Melissa Tammerijn was born in the Netherlands and was discovered when she was approximately 15 years old but did not start modeling full time until she was finished with high school. In the Spring Summer 2012 season, Melissa Tammerijn walked in high fashion shows such as Moschino, Roberto Cavalli, Versace, Versus, D&G, and Dolce & Gabbana, among other incredibly beautiful fashion shows during Milan Fashion Week.
High fashion model Melissa Tammerijn talks about being a "First Face" during the fashion shows, but what exactly is a "First Face" model? Each season, ZARZAR MODELS presents a countdown of the top 10 fashion models that opened the most fashion shows for that season. The models that open each show are the ones that the designers want to represent their brand for that collection, and they are usually designated to be the top models for that season. They are chosen by the designers. The time has come to expose the stars of this fashion week season and all eyes are on the first girl to step on the fashion runway.

Albino (al) is a tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4)-deficient mutant of the silkworm Bombyx mori

Albino (al) is a lethal mutant of Bombyx mori that exhibits a colourless cuticle after the first ecdysis and dies without feeding on mulberry. Previous studies have indicated that sclerotisation was insufficient because of defective phenylalanine and tyrosine metabolism in albino larvae. However, the genetic mechanism underlying the albino phenotype has not been determined. Dopamine plays a central role in insect cuticle colouration and sclerotisation. The pathway for dopamine biosynthesis from phenylalanine involves phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH; EC 1.14.16.1) and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH; EC 1.14.16.2). Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) is an essential cofactor of aromatic amino acid hydroxylases, including PAH and TH. Thus, BH4 is indispensable for cuticle colouration and sclerotisation. Here we report on identifying mutations in the gene that encodes for the Bombyx homolog of 6-pyruvoyl-tetrahydropterin synthase (PTS) which is involved in the biosynthesis of BH4, in 2 strains with different al alleles. In strain a60 (al), a transposable element was inserted in exon 2 of BmPTS. In strain a61 (al2), an 11-bp deletion was identified in the exon 2 region of BmPTS. After oral administration of BH4 to the al2 larvae, the survival rate was effectively increased and the larval integument was pigmented. These results indicated that BmPTS was responsible for the albino mutants of B.mori. We conclude that (i) a mutation in BmPTS leads to an insufficient supply of BH4 and results in defective dopamine biosynthesis and (ii) lack of dopamine results in cuticle colouration and sclerotisation failure. Lemon (lem) is a BH4-deficient mutant. It has been reported that de novo synthesis of zygotic BH4 was indispensable for viability of the embryo in eggs laid by lem (lem/leml) females. We found that lem/lem, al2/al2 larvae produced by lem (lem/lem) females were viable during the first instar stage, suggesting that al2/al2 embryo could synthesis BH4 by using maternally transmitted BmPTS.

Finmeccanica – AgustaWestland announced today that the new generation AW169 light intermediate 4.5-tonne class helicopter has entered full scale production, with the first aircraft now on the final assembly line at its Vergiate facility in Italy. The event marks a major milestone ahead of EASA certification, with deliveries to the first batch of customers set to start in the 2nd quarter of 2015. The AW169 is the first all new aircraft in its weight category to enter the market in nearly forty years. The AW169 flight test programme, utilizing four prototypes, has so far amassed over 1200 flying hours during flight testing in Italy, the UK and USA. A second AW169 final assembly line is planned at AgustaWestland's Philadelphia plant in the US, while AgustaWestland's Yeovil plant in UK is already playing a key role in the production of rotor blades and tail rotor transmission system. In parallel to the start of full scale production, AW169 training systems are being established at AgustaWestland's Sesto Calende Training Academy in Italy, including a level-D full flight simulator and maintenance trainer.
A versatile, new generation twin engine light intermediate category helicopter, the AW169 has been designed in response to the growing market demand for an aircraft that delivers high performance, meets all the latest safety standards and has multi-role capabilities. The AW169 is being certified in accordance with EASA CS-29 / FAR Part 29 latest Amendments. The type incorporates several new technology features in the rotor system, engines, avionics, transmission and electric power generation and distribution systems, and is the first all new helicopter in its class in nearly 40 years. The AW169 can comfortably accommodate up to ten passengers in its large, unobstructed cabin, fitted with a range of customized equipment and entertainment systems. The powerplant features an Auxiliary power unit (APU) mode ensuring the continued operation of the environmental control system, radios and medical equipment when the rotors are stopped. The AW169's avionic suite introduces state-of-the-art technology including a full digital NVG compatible cockpit with touch screen technology.
The AW169 is designed with inherent ease of maintenance, for reliable, intensive utilisation in the most demanding conditions with high time between overhauls (TBO) and minimal life-limited parts. Time between successive inspections has been optimised to maximise aircraft availability and reduce maintenance man hours per flight hour, adopting MSG-3 approach for the maintenance process. Maintenance programmes can be tailored to meet operators' specific requirements. The AW169 helicopter is part of AgustaWestland's family of new generation helicopters that also includes the AW139 and AW189. These helicopters all possess the same high-performance flight characteristics and safety features whilst sharing the same common cockpit concept and design philosophy. This approach facilitates synergies for operators of these models in areas such as training, flight operations, maintenance and support. Over 120 AW169 helicopters have been ordered by customers around the world to date, including framework contracts and options, for a wide range of applications including executive and private transport, air ambulance, law enforcement, offshore transport and utility roles.
