    Replacement cooling fans for Toshiba T3200

    Yes they look good. But the shipping cost is a killer, I also have a 24% vat when items arrive and I have to do customs clearance, so total for 3 tiny fans would be approximately 3.60+20 = 23.60 x3 = 70 + 24% = 86 Euro.

    Replacement cooling fans for Toshiba T3200

    Hi all, I have two working T3200 and one parts machine, and I'd like to get the working ones a bit less noisy. So I wanted to replace the 3 fans it has inside. But I'm struggling to find anything that fits, so wanted to ask if anybody has done the same swap? Original fans are branded "Wind...

    Toshiba T3200 - Long beep, black screen, no boot.

    Thank you for the input, much appreciated. I have since used this T3200 as a parts machine for two other T3200, that now both still run on their original HDD. So if anyone need some parts, let me know, I might have it.

    Hi guys, did any of you get the VP1000 to work? What can it do? I'm looking at one for sale for 30€, but it has no floppy on the front.

    Toshiba T3200 - Long beep, black screen, no boot.

    Ok, so here's how mine is acting now on bootup. New BIOS battery installed. Should I try installing a new chip with "new" BIOS, or is my RAM memory fried? 🤔 Really would appreciate any leads on what to do next...

    Toshiba T3200 - Long beep, black screen, no boot.

    I am having the exact same issue as you have, but my screen doesn't even flicker when turning on. A week ago I replaced the gas plasma screen, and computer was booting up to some memory error. At that time I had the old flat CMOS battery in the laptop, but now I have replaced it for a new...

    Using a mouse on a Toshiba T3200SX

    Recapping a Toshiba T3200, what caps?

    Okay, I just thought that caps go bad with time. I had a dead T1000LE, made a full recap of about 15 small caps and it now works again.

    Recapping a Toshiba T3200, what caps?

    Hi, Has anybody done a full recap on the T3200, and if so would you happen to have the details on what caps? It would be so handy to order the caps in advance. Thanks a lot!! Tom

    Toshiba T1000LE not booting up

    Ok thanks, that's what I meant but my English is not so good... I was just thinking if there was a need to add some component to the battery circuit.

    Toshiba T1000LE not booting up

    Hello and thank you for the help! The battery, is it a direct swap? I think I'll order the same. Oh I know Allegro, I'm there lurking often for vintage equipment :) I suppose I have a gum like belt as well, so if the belt works, please if you can share the details on it later...🙏

    WTB: Qty 4 matched 2MB 30pin FPM 60-70ns SIMMs non-parity for PC (NOT MAC)

    Found the below online. Might apply to the non SX as well? "The problem is that the T3200SX was designed to work only with genuine Toshiba RAM modules, which are nearly impossible to find nowadays. I think it was done intentionally, and in most cases, the laptop does not work with RAM from...

    Toshiba T3200 - Long beep, black screen, no boot.

    Did you get anywhere with this? Wish I could help. I have a T3200 that I never tested yet, as well as a spare PSU and spare display. Planning on having a go at it very soon, I hope I can get it to work somehow.
