I saw under the menu that the diagnostics disk could test alot of the hardware stuff like the Fan, Thermister ,...
But none of the files that I found worked (they were for different notebooks)
Do you guys have some idea where could I find the Toshiba diagnostics disk for the satellite 330?

Is this it? From the Toshiba support site, says "Windows utilities for Satellite 330".

I wish it was that tool, but it's the third time I'm downloading it ;(

Here, take a look about the face from this specific software:

I also belive that this specific tool is a generic tool, because I saw the same information and tests under different Toshiba models (including the libreto 110, [but without the fan option])

The best I did was to download the atlas software (kind of a repair software kit for companies that was going to fix Toshiba notebooks), there were some tools, but it was for 1990 - 1991 Toshiba models ;--;

Wow great find PC Hoarder Patrol, was looking at their site earlier and missed this. Thanks !
Not sure how the Diags will work on a Satellite 110CS but will give it a whirl ;p

Hate posting a reply and then have to edit it because it made no sense 😁 First computer was an IBM 3270 workstation with CGA monitor. Stuff: https://archive.org/details/@horun

I have a 115cs, with the floppy disks. That should be an equivalent for your model, since they are basically the same. But minuszerodegrees should have it too.

Small follow-up on where to get these files from - came across an old post on another forum where a number of these had already been found and listed, so knocked up a quick PowerShell batch to check what was still there and tidy up the list below

ToshTnD.txt

Main problem is Toshiba / Dynabook choose not to expose the online directory so unless you already know the filenames or are a good guesser based on their loose naming structure, then finding any more may be a problem (is there a way to scrape data anyway in these circumstances?)

Has anyone managed to find the original dos diagnostics for the Toshiba Satellite Pro P300 - I can't see it in the above posts. In the maintenance manual there are screen images of it - and says version 1.10. It does more than the web version available now on the Dynabook website.
Has anyone found a way of accessing the files on Dynabook via ftp or online directory (not via their web forms) ? - I could then have a look to see if the diags are on there anywhere.
