3G problem on Portege A600 - off Radio

Hello

I have a Portege A600-13Y with Windows 7 32 bit. I installed the latest drivers for 3G and utilities of this thread.
[http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=178251𫡋]

My SIM card O2 is detected by the Toshiba Wireless Manager but there is a message

"* Radio is disabled - to activate the mobile switch on."

(German: "Funk ausgeschaltet ist.) (" <> Zum Einschalten Notebook-switch briefly").

So the problem is, I have found no switch for WWAN.

Anyone have the same problem or can anyone please help me with this problem.

Make sure that the WLAN switch is turned on and the orange light is on also.
After that, use FN + F8 key combination to turn it on.

Whose options you can see with FN + F8?

    Hello...

    I just got a Slim Port Replicator III (model PA3681E-2PRP) and annexed a number of devices (a VGA monitor, a USB keyboard and a USB mouse), according to the user manual.

    The unit, however, does well with my laptop (a Portege A600-133). Specifically, the laptop battery does not, the devices are not recognized and docking led remains off. However, the laptop turns on and off of the port replicator power switch, and the ethernet port also works very well.

    Clues?

    Thank you!

  • Portege A600-13D - webcam stopped working

    Hello

    I have a Netbook Toshiba Portege A600-13D old, I am very satisfied with it, but lately the WEBCAM does not work and I have no idea what to do. If I try to activate the camera, I have the answer:

    The WEB camera could not been initialized

    Systemcontrol is the message:

    The camera could not been started, Code 10

    If I look at the driver and try to update, the message is:

    The optimal driver is already installed

    Maybe someone has an idea of what I can do and how to proceed. Sorry my bad English!

    Thanks in advance and best regards
    gh_1929

    Hello

    Error code 10 means that the device could not start.
    This may be related to driver problem (software), but also hardware problem.

    Let's see if its a software issue: check that I recommend you to uninstall the software for a Chicony webcam first.
    As far as I know, you should be able to uninstall the software in the control panel? programs & features.
    In the case of the Chicony webcam software is not listed here, go to Device Manager and uninstall the webcam driver which you should find in imaging devices.

    After the system restart, go to the page of the Toshiba UE driver and download Chicony webcam software to perform the new installation.
    You will probably need to restart the laptop once more to make it work properly.

    So lets hope that this accelerated procedure would solve your problem of course that if the problem is related to the problem of software.

  • Portege A600-133: DVD player disappears from my computer

    Hello

    I have a laptop Portege A600-133.
    First of all, it is slow at the opening of my computer screen.

    Second: after ejecting a disc dvd or cd, Windows still shows the contents of the disc, the system hangs for a while, a USB unplug sound can be heard and the dvd player disappears from Windows (in my computer / Explorer / Device Manager)

    What this may be?

    I did already the round of upper/lower filters in the registry, but it does not solve the problem...
    I opened the computer laptop and checked the wiring to the dvd drive, cleaned the contacts, supported on the connectors.

    My first idea was to remove the upper and lower registry key filters, but it seems that you have already done this.

    Nevertheless, here is a knowledge of MS on the upper and lower filters article mentioned.

    You should also check if it of possible to boot from the bootable CD.

    I got a Portege A600-175 running windows XP SP3 with a problem in the card reader device. Insert an SD card, it makes the sound that USB devices usually do when inserted (and also when it is removed) bur it doesn t appear on my computer.

    Hi fjdc,.

    I think that you should look for an update to the driver on the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    Remove the old version, restart the computer and install the version of the Toshiba page.

  • Portege A600-128 - no card detected WiFi and no sound through headphones

    Hello
    I recently encounter some problem with my portege a600-128. Not illustrated, wireless network adapters a so no wifi detection, more when using headphones, realtek HD audio software detects them being plugged, but no sound is not output - I was wondering if it is a problem with the software, or perhaps of a damage...

    Re: wifi, I tried to download the driver realtek_wlan_20100225.zip on the site, but nothing has changed. In fact, the single adapter in Device Manager is the adapter broadband toshiba f3507g mobile, and in network connections, I don't see this one. Try to "find the hardware changes" in Device Manager only managed the laptop to realize that my Alps pointing device (touchpad) is not installed (if she always worked and always made)-trying to install tpdrv-20081103180427. ZIP has not changed anything...

    Thanks for any help!

    Hey Buddy,

    Have you checked if the WiFi is enabled by using the FN + F8 key combination? If your laptop is a hardware WLAN switch, it must be defined on IT!
    In addition I recommend you load the default settings in the BIOS.

    On your sound problem, have you tried to update the audio driver?

  • Portege A600 - Windows 7 installation CD/DVD device driver

    Hello.

    I am trying to install Windows 7 Professional 64 bit on my Portege A600.

    I tried to boot from the DVD, flash. I changed all of the possible settings in the BIOS, I have updated the BIOS to version 3.0, but I still have this bloody error "a required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing". Is there a place where I can download this driver to show the installer without having to download a 100 TB of pron?

    Or is there a way to fix my problem?

    Hello

    First of all there is no special driver CD/DVD. It of a part of Windows 7 and so there are no drivers available.

    It would be interesting to know when you get this error exactly.

    Maybe your defective CD/DVD drive. You can test another?

    Hello

    In my opinion, the Toshiba Recovery disk error message is very interesting and says a lot. What do you think about this?

    If your HARD drive is defective, you need a new and you are not able to reinstall the OS. Maybe your HARD drive needs to be exchanged.

    In your case I would contact an authorized service provider. Technicians can check your laptop and if it of under warranty, you should get a new HARD drive for free.

  • Re: Portege A600-13Y: update BIOS 1.50 to 2.00 - WIN - how it is risky?

    Hello

    My BIOS Portege A600-13Y is version 1.50:

    -should I upgrade to 2.00WIN?
    -J' found this source for the biso 2.0 upgrade but there is no indication that the file is authentic bios TOSHIBA.
    No checksum, any ssl certificate, nothing. Is it possible to get it securely / authenticated?

    Thanks for the responses,
    Schneiderlein

    Hello

    First, you must use and download the BIOS files only from site Web from Toshiba.
    PPA61E Portege A600-13Y is a European model for Toshiba laptop and all the drivers and BIOS can be found on the Toshiba driver page.

    I put t know why you ask control totals or certificate ssl of the Web from Toshiba sites are safe
    but everyone who needs drivers or BIOS can download

    You must only make sure that you have chosen the right laptop model and you have downloaded the good BIOS!

    But why you want to update the BIOS?
    If your laptop is running without problem, then, an update of the BIOS is not important, that I'm still this notice; never change a running system.

  • Portege A600 Webcam software crashes when changing the settings with the sound muted

    I have a problem with XP Toshiba factory build for Portege A600 and Portege R600.
    If you try to change the sound properties of the Webcam using the Camera Assistant Software with the sound muted, the camera wizard app will hang & Windows fails to shut down or even stop. The only way to stop is pressed the power button until the machine stops.

    So far, the only solution I can come to is to increase the volume to zero rather than using the mute box. The problem is if you forget and mute rather than turning down and then try to change the sound properties, its "game over." In addition, it is not really satisfactory because politics is to keep the machines muted until the sound is required.

    This does not happen with the Vista Build, build it only XP.

    My guess is that this will not happen on any machine using the Chicony Webcam & software with the Realtek HD audio but I have not tried on machines enough yet to be sure. So far, I've recreated on two A600s and a R600. The machines are not defective and you can create the problem, "straight out of the box. Just do the following:
    (1) use the provided Toshiba product recovery DVD for restore factory Toshiba Windows XP SP2 version
    (2) once you have done the whole stuff, mute
    (3) open the Camera Assistant Software application & to select Properties
    4) click the audio settings tab

    That of all, suspended. The Camera Assistant Software version is 1.7.209.0807L which seems to be the last being available for download on the websites of Toshiba.

    Someone has encountered this or have any suggestions?

    Hello

    I n t have a Portege but U400 with pre-installed and integrated webcam Win XP.
    I installed a clean Win XP and then upgraded the XP to the last State and installed all the drivers available from the Toshiba page and possible.

    I followed the steps in your message and I have to say that I didn t notice strange questions, software webcam still works correctly

    I put t know what could be the problem, but I recommend that you check the audio driver to update maybe you can use the Realtek page
    Also, check if the BIOS has been updated to the current state and if your Windows XP is up to date.
