A surround sound to my Satellite A300-S6872

Greetings!

I want to use my computer to send a sound signal 5.1 surround to my Onkyo receiver. I have a headset jack SPDIF port size, which I think allows a surround output.

In addition, when I tested my Realtek digital output device, the green lights will turn on but I have no sound (which I think ' may be the result of bad cables I'm using).

What do need me and how do I make my exit from the computer a surround sound?

Thank you!

Hello

If you are sure that your laptop supports S/PDIF (digital audio output) to 100%, then you can use the cable like this:

If you plugged the A300 cable, then you will need to choose the right output of the Panel-> sound

    anyone whith the same problem?

    desperate!

    Hello

    If the sound does not work, it means that you have not installed the audio driver.
    AFAIK the A300-1MS supports the Realtek ALC268 audio chip.
    If you should download audio Manager Realtek Realtek HD page and should install it.

    I always use the most recent SPs and I have no problem yet.

  • Satellite A300-129 - Sound is mute and icon does not

    Hi all

    I am trying to turn on the sound of my Satellite A300-129 after I cut it a couple of days, but the icon does not respond.
    When I click on the right button of the mouse, I can go to sounds etc, but "open volume Mixer" is not responding or the other. I also tried to restart the laptop a couple of times, but that did not help.
    What can I do? Your help will be very appreciated.

    Heleen

    > How do I do that safely without the risk of losing her forever?

    LOL you don't lose anything forever. : D in the worst case you have to reinstall the OS using the Toshiba recovery disc.

    Access to Device Manager-> mark the sound card-> with the delete key-> restart the laptop

    After restarting again the audio driver needs to be reinstalled again and should detect the sound card.

  • Satellite A300 - sometimes no sound

    Hi people,

    I had a Satellite A300 with built-in speakers. From time to time, it happens that the left one does not work properly. It doesn't come any sound out of it. Next time, when I start the computer laptop new averything's alright. I have already installed the new drivers for the sound card. But without success. I should mention that the headphone connector is working properly.
    My question is: what can I do? The warranty time has not yet expired. Should I send it for repair?

    Thank you

    Marcus

    Hi Marcus,

    It seems that the internal speakers should be replaced. I mean if external speakers or headphones are working, the only reason could be the internal speakers.

    So in your case I would call a service provider authorized cost a repair. I guess this internal speakers should be expensive, but just ask for it. I think that the technicians can make you a good offer! :)

  • How can satellite A300-1NO - I record sounds?

    Hello. I have a Satellite A300 1NO machine, but I don't know how to put my sound card, because I want to record all the sounds that play my sound card. For example, listen to internet radio, and record a track of her.

    I cannot set my microphone to record it and can't see any more. WaveOut or something else... How could I solve this problem? I have the 6.0.1.5599 of its driver.

    Hello

    If you want to record the sound that plays the sound card, you need another program. So it is not possible to record sound only with the audio driver.

    There are many programs that can do this. I have good experiences with no. 23 Recorder. Use Google to find out. Its freeware and easy to use.
    In addition, there are some programs that streams internet radio, and save as. But I n t use such a program, but Google can help you find one.

  • Satellite A300-15J: missing software sound like on Sat A100

    Hello

    I got my Toshiba Satellite A300-15J 2 days ago. My previous laptop was an A100.

    Miss me the sound software that had my previous laptop.
    There was a tray for the sound icon and I could right click and select if I use headphones or speakers to the laptop.

    I wonder if there is no need to distinguish between the headphones and speakers to laptop on this system? If there is, could be directed to a link to download the audio software for this model. This Windows Vista.

    Thank you for your time.
    Leon

    Hello

    I presume that your previous A100 has used a Realtek audio Manager.
    The A300 does not use and does not support the Realtek audio chip, but it supports the audio chip Conexant CX20561 and as I m not wrong there another sound feature.

    Check your control panel-> * Smart Audio *.
    You must meet certain useful configurations.

  • Satellite A300 PSAG4E - no sound when you plug an electric guitar

    Hello everyone!

    I have a very difficult problem. I've got model Satellite A300, PSAG4E its short no, with Windows XP SP3 installed.

    The point is that I need to plug in an electric guitar to my computer and once it is plugged in, RealTek HD sees him but produces, records or not distinguished any sound.

    Everything is on, then I'm afraid that this isn't my inattention which is to blame.

    In case someone already had such a problem with guitar or a microphone plugged into the laptop, please inform me how you managed to eliminate this kind of things.

    Thank you.

    On my laptop I have Realtek HD Audio Manager also, but there is no option for registration. When the external microphone is connected Manager I see info on Realtek audio devices reloading and the microphone is recognized correctly, but in my opinion this Manager has nothing to do with the record.

    For the record, you need other software. In Vista, you have small tool called recorder of sounds. I tested it on my laptop and the sound will be recorded correctly.
    Can you please test it too?

    The fact is the external device is recognized correctly, but I think for sound recording, you need additional software.

  • Poor quality of the sound after XP or Vista upgrade on the Satellite A300 - 15 d

    Hello

    Please I need your help.

    I have my Satellite A300 - 15 d and I had a problem with my sound.
    When I upgraded to Vista ultimate or go back to XP my sound becomes very bad quality and I have tried to update drivers and utilities but no way and finally I come to Vista Home who came into the recovery.

    I hate it and I need a solution.

    Please answer

    Hello

    What exactly do you mean by "bad sound quality?"
    He is too weak or what?

    A300 - 15 d seems to belong to the series of PSAJ4E.
    Conexant for Win XP and vista audio driver is available on the European driver Toshiba page.

    I have the same sound chip in my book and the sound is ok... I also noticed that I have a SmartAudio in Control Panel.
    This seems to be an additional tool to improve the sound quality.

    Maybe you should check this.

  • Satellite A300 Vista - no sound

    Hello

    The sound then has full on my Satellite A300 on Control Panel etc. Playback, no sound, off headset nothing anyway.
    I went on the sound, hardware and Control Panel. On the first section, somehow I wiped the image of Realtek and the image of the speaker.

    I downloaded the Realtek, but cannot reload, or the logo of the speaker?
    What should I do to get that back?

    What caused the problem in the first place?
    Could he have put a SKYPE phone on it?

    Hello

    I must say that your post is really confusing.
    I put t know how someone could erase the image of Realtek and the image of the speaker.

    But I'll try to help you.
    I think you need to access the Device Manager first and should remove your sound card in the list of devices.
    Reboot the laptop and after new restart try reinstalling the audio driver that you downloaded from the European driver Toshiba page.

    Usually, this should contribute to renew the sound card driver and retrieve the sound!

  • No sound in Windows XP on Satellite A300-1EG

    Well, I'm in trouble, and that bothers me.

    I can't install my soundcard on Satellite A300-1EG. (I have the same notebook)
    I kill Vista and installed XPSP2, is gone to Toshiba official downloads, got sound and chipset drivers, but sound card still does not work.

    I want to tell ALL.
    Same system doesn't see this device as an existing one. Looks like he disappeared.
    But it does not work under Vista.
    What should I do?
    I'm not going to install vista, I'd rather have a laptop another (preparation for the worse)

    Hello

    You need to first install audio patch for windows xp
    AUDIO patch 1: KB835221
    AUDIO patch 2: KB888111

    These are patches from Microsoft and are essential for the sound card.

    After that the patches have been installed, reinstall the audio driver

  • Satellite A300-1OM - no sound on TV with HDMI

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A300 1OM and also a HD in Toshiba TV with HDMI input ports.

    I recently bought a HDMI cable to HDMI and attached the laptop to the tv and turned the TV to HDMI channel, and the cell phone confirmed making the sound "new device attached".

    However, when I try to use the Fn + F5 and output to the tv, nothing happens. When I choose to use the TV as an external monitor to the tv shows the external display, but only covers the center of the TV, just a little larger than my screen laptop, instead of the full screen, as I had hoped. The sound also remained on the laptop instead of my tv speakers.

    Then I tried the "HDMI output" software that came with the laptop computer, and only got the message "it is only effective when the PC is connected to a TV set that supports HDMI control via the HDMI cable.

    Finally, I tried the graphics options to click with the right button on the desktop and choosing to watch out, and then using the graphic properties that I managed to increase the resolution on TV, until he was almost the entire screen, but not entirely and again the sound only came out of the laptop.

    I'm hoping to be able to watch video files from my laptop HD, but it seems that the video output on my TV is always one notebook quality rather than the HD as I had hoped... I tried to watch "Lost.S05E11.720p.HDTV.x 264 - CTU.mkv" once I have wouldn't finally gone out my laptop to HD TV to a nearly full screen size, but does not recognize the difference between the video on TV and laptop.

    Can anyone help? I have read several other similar posts, I checked the BIOS and is enabled in the HDMI display section, but still could not resolve my problem.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    > I hope to be able to watch my laptop HD video files, but it seems that the video output on my TV is always only quality rather than HD specification
    > does not recognize the difference between the video on TV and laptop.

    Do you know what that means HD quality?
    HD TV supports a maximum resolution of 1280 × 720 px and full HD means that the TV would be able to show HD movies using the resolution of 1920 × 1080.
    A simple old TV supports a resolution of 768 x 576.

    Each screen of the laptop is able to show HD videos in HD quality because the screen supports the same or greater resolution!
    So you will not notice any difference on laptop or HD TV HD quality video game!

    In addition the sound does not come through the speakers of the TV because you didn t, choose the HDMI port as the default audio output (device).

    Check this step by step instruction:
    Click Start
    Parameters
    Control Panel
    Material and audio
    Audio/digital output device (HDMI)
    Click the set as default

  • Re: Click on Satellite A300 - noisy HARD drive - strange of sound while booting

    Hi all

    I'm new and I would try to solve some problems with my new laptop * SATELLITE A300-1MZ * (with Vista) and * its hard disk * (a MHZ250BH of Fj-simens).

    I noticed that he is very mechanical in the normal conditions of use, in fact, when I turn on my computer, I hear a clear rattling and his mechanic from the HDD at different times also when there should be no disk activity.
    * Particularlly every 3-5 seconds * I hear a very strange noise as a small but very distinguible mechanic "CLAC" (is not refer to number of cycle ordefrag or indexing workload). Ditto on my ubuntu LINUX distro.
    However the phone never crashes

    _It first start Appareed and it's very noise_.
    I would ask if this is normal... It appeared regardless of the AC or battery power source.

    I just make a SMART software which is no problem, but I'm very worried about this problem.
    By phone, I just say all this to the center of Toshiba in my country, but for them all right. The laptop works ok.

    Not to mention that I found that * HDD * becomes * hot * also if there are no programs or processes that use it.
    He begins to 29a ° - 31Â ° and it gets hot with normal use (35 ° - 36Â ° after finished booting and after 30-40 min temperature is become more warm-42a ° - 46Â °, when its average temperature is ° - 48Â ° 46a - imagine if I turn for example a virus scan or a very hot video coding software-It to become: 50a ° - 55Â °.) (I try always not to overcome this final temperature). What is the maximum?

    * I hope you can give me an explanation to the problem.*
    * I ask if this is a problem common to other A300 owners.*

    For my personal reflection, that noise, it is very distinguible for a cooler quiet fan system (infact my dual core is 43a ° with normal use)
    Infact I would like to find a system to enable more cool fan (I have just seen in the bios and utilities from Toshiba but found nothing to that effect)

    Finally, I would like to know if the * battery time * 1h30mins (with the symmetric mode) is acceptable for a new laptop (with save mode is 1h40mins max).
    * I hope your support and I apologize for my language school *.

    Thanks y'alls.

    Hello

    I think that it s nothing wrong with your HARD drive.
    I have two cell phones and a PS3 at home.
    The HARD drive in a laptop made similar clicking sound. In addition, I noticed the same sound in the PS3. Since the upgrade to 500GB drive HARD makes the similar sound as the HARD drive in my notebook.
    I think that it s nothing wrong with the HARD drive and eventually it s nothing serious.

    > Finally, I would like to know if the battery of 1h30mins (with the symmetric mode) is acceptable for a new laptop (with save mode is 1h40mins max).
    Battery working time depends on the use of the laptop.
    The battery lasts a shorter time when to implement applications performance on the laptop. Also if the brightness of the display is set to the highest level, the battery needed to dump a lot more quickly.
    So I think 1.30 min is OK for the laptop. Of course, you can buy a stronger battery in order to use the laptop longer with battery power.
