- Today, we're going to try to fix an MS-DOS Laptop with a damaged BIOS. This is a Toshiba Satellite Pro 400CDT Laptop Computer, one of the most sought after MS-DOS Gaming Laptops today. Let's see if we can get it working!
Here is the BIOS Recovery File I used - www.vogons.org...
Leave a comment, and let me know what you think! Enjoy!

External video with a modern monitor for the win? that would be a cool sequel!
Great video, Josh! I'm always amazed at how much you know about retro computers! 😀
That old gray Satellite brings back memories, I used one for work for a while. It was a good dependable machine. This was the exciting age when every year or two there were serious advances in speed and storage. Too bad about that screen!
Glad you got it to work and got a little refund for it too! That’s amazing you thought of the floppy disk right away, I would be hopeless lol 😂
Fun video as always Josh!
Very interesting, josh! I hope you're able to rectify the LCD screen.
Loving your videos man. Been watching a lot of videos of people restoring old computers and stuff to learn about it. I can show You a method I’d use to fix broken hinges like that or any other plastic pieces that is a very solid fix doesn’t require any glue or adhesive. And it’s strong. Let me know I’ll make a video
Nice buy, i would totally check the connector on the actual panel, or the connector for the graphics board (they like popping off in this series, and often mistaken as a bad panel)
I bought a 430CDS working and in excellent condition, but dirty and no HDD, i then bought another which was a 430CDT which was untested. I hoped that i could make a working CDT version out of them both. I got the CDS first and it powered on and worked fine, i removed the cmos/sleep batteries which had just started to leak onto the board. neutralized it and cleaned. And now it wont power on at all. Then the CDT arrived, basically everything i wanted from it was toast, no power on, panel broken, HDD and battery missing. Now i have two dead 430 series and the external floppy drive all sat on a shelf collecting dust. Shame but i will probably be relisting them both on ebay. I could put the effort in to fix the CDS board, but not really worth the time for a DSTN screen.
That’s a good point, and sorry to hear about your 430’s! They are finicky devices for sure.
Looking forward to seeing this Josh. 👏
mmm that keyboard looks good
That countdown definitely isn’t “retro”
But super fun!
Looks like you are the I.T. guy for your family like I am for mine.
but, but, but, my computer doesn't have an anykey....
Mine either!
LCD repair in the next video!
These were always my least favorite laptops. Cheap looking, every screw is a different length, hardly ever used active matrix screens…
Interestingly enough, this one has an active matrix screen. Any of them whose model number ends in CDT have an active matrix screen. Unfortunately, most vintage laptops are a huge pain to take apart, etc…
@@retrotv1tech Yes I was disassembling them almost daily starting in the early 2000s. I own one of these Satellite laptops, I really didn’t have to tear them down too often. They weren’t subject to the broken power connectors like the Compaq models thankfully.
@@nyccollin I have another one of these that I had to take the front bezel off of, and that didn’t go very well as I’ll show in another video. Lol.
@@retrotv1tech Haha sounds good!
@@retrotv1tech oh no :( Hopefully it was just a few of the clips broke rather than anything more major?
The 400CDT bezel is tough to remove because there's so much plastic, the later ones with bigger screens / less plastic come off more easily. The trick to them is that they're clipped at the edges in such a way that you can get your fingertips underneath the lcd side of the bezel with thumbs on the outer edge of the bezel and rock that back and forth til it pops out. Pushing a plastic spudger into the LCD housing / bezel line while rocking the bezel back & forth on that edge can help too.
Just took the bezel off my 400CDT and really struggled with the corners where a couple of clips broke off rather than releasing.
Maybe your one was in a hotter climate and the plastic has gone more brittle, the clips are just gonna break in that case. If that happened or you broke the bezel just superglue it back together and put something like kapton tape on the inside to hold things together, I found it doesn't notice too much in use.
Hi retro tv
Please take it to repair shop to replace the screen. If possible.
flex the pannel and see if the stripes change
Good idea. I can try that.
hello
WOW….FAT16 is a throwback!
