If your Toshiba laptop is not under warranty anymore and you have decided to open and repair it yourself , then you should know how to find a part number for the laptop part you want to replace. Almost every part and cable in Toshiba laptops has its own part number and should be replaced only with the same part or a substitute part. To find the part number look for a sticker or for a sign on the part. Toshiba part number would be something like V000040870, A000004270, P000343780, etc. After you find the part number you can search here.
If you cannot find a part number for your Toshiba laptop, I can help you. Just leave me a comment with the part name you are looking for, the laptop model name and the laptop model number. For example: laptop model name Toshiba Satellite A75-S211 and laptop model number PSA70U-0WK00G. This information is located on the sticker on the bottom of your laptop.
I would be able to help to find a part number only for laptops sold in the USA.
Here are more tips for finding a correct part for your notebook.

Hi highspeeddirt,
I haven’t seen Toshiba Satellite M55 with heat issue yet. You can easily clean the heatsisnk and the fan if you remove the keyboard from the lapop (Steps 1,6,7,8,9,11). If the laptop is warm in the area of the hard drive, it is possible that hard drive will fail soon.
I guess your laptop is still under Toshiba warranty. Take it or ship it to a Toshiba repair center and mention your problem with a hot hard drive. They will replace it. Do not open the laptop case yourself if it is still under warranty, it will void the warranty.

Hi Rex,
I think all you can do is search for a new updated driver on Linkys website.

Hey Alex,
I am 99.99% positive that you cannot use a Toshiba M200 digitizer for iBook. Here is a guide for removing and replacing Toshiba Portege M200 digitizer.

I would like to put a Toshiba M200 digitizer behind my iBook 12″ lcd. Can you tell me how the digitizer connects to the Toshiba mobo (serial, usb…) and if you think it is possible to connect it to an iBook?
thanks much
