• Needs to switch WLan activating / deactivating after each reboot on Equium A100-027

  Well my laptop worked fine for centuries, then recently each time the laptop restarts or turn on I have to turn off the WLAN switch and again each turn before the work of Wifi.

  He starts getting really annoying now; There seems to be a software bug / config problem, so I did a factory restore and even then still doesn't work does not correctly!

  Any ideas? It is driving my crazy now!

  OS is Vista home Premium BTW.

  Hello

  Try to update the WLan driver!
  In most cases, this helps!

  In addition I advise to use a tool to configure WLan as Intel ProSet utility for example (only if you use the Intel wireless network adapter)

  I use the Intel ProSet utility and I m very happy. My WiFi connects immediately after that the laptop has started.

• Checksum error message incorrect A250 aftetr Bios Update on Equium A100

  I received the message 'bad checksum A250' to restart after update Bios on Equium A100 - psaa4e Windows XP home sp3.

  Update 20070709121820 installed BIOS downloaded through this Web site.
  I installed directly from the downloaded file.
  System seems to not operate normally if have I messed up anything?

  Hello

  This message always appears during the clean boot procedure or it appeared only once?

  Generally 'bad checksum' error message if the CMOS battery does not work correctly.

  But I have no idea why you get this message after update BIOS... Anyway if the laptop works correctly after updating the BIOS then you should t be worried.

  Yes. It is possible to upgrade your Equium up to 2 GB, but you must use compatible memory modules.
  Module 1 GB compatible for your old Equium has PA3411U-1M1G part number.

• Equium A100-338 has started to go very slow after using the recovery CD

  I used the recovery CD after my Equium A100-338 has started to go very slow, it still seems slower than it used to be.
  I haven't added anything to the computer from the CD recovery and verified the Manager tasks to see if I could spot anything suspicious.

  Statistics say, use 18-22% CPU, but the physical memory is about 68% is this normal or should it be less?

  Is there a list of standard processes I can check against mine to see if its doing something, it shouldn't be?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I think you feel that unity is a bit slow due to the high amount of different processes that run in the context of the BONE.

  The fact is that your laptop supports various features such as buttons FN, Toshiba control buttons, etc.
  All this has needs drivers.

  In addition, as I m not wrong the Norton Internet Security has been installed on your system.
  It s part of the image of Toshiba and this tool could affect the performance of the system.

  I have used in the past, but now changed to another application that doesn t need a lot of material resources.

  So if you want you can disable or delete some of the tools and utilities that are not important to you and could clean the system using a 3rd third party tool called CCleaner

• Equium A100-027: after installing XP no sound

  After buying an Equium A100-027 with pre-installed Vista Home, I had to remove this in order to recharge with XP Pro SP2 to join to the domain of my company.

  Everything is installed properly and audio drivers are also present and work according to the Device Manager but no sound is heard. Also, I can't install the SRS Tru Surround driver because of the error message saying not supported on this computer.

  Hello

  Where did you download the XP drivers?
  Did you use the right method?

  For me it s a clear error message-> the driver cannot be installed because the phone does not support. You must use a compatible.

  Equium A100 is very similar to the Satellite A100. Try the drivers in this section and check the different versions

• Equium A100 - fan runs constantly after the release of sleep

  I was faced with a problem with an Equium A100, if the system is put into mode 'sleep', and when he took over this mode the cpu fan runs constantly never turn off, this only happens when I get out of sleep mode

  Apart from this, the fan works normanly turn on for a short time, when the temperature rises and then turn off again unless I wake up sleep mode windows.

  Hello

  You didn t show all details on the installed system. However, I think that its system related issue possibly some processes that run in the background constraints and to lock the CPU, causing a higher activity of the fan.

  It would be interesting to know if the same problem occurs with the help of a new OS installed.

• Equium A100 - 338 PSAAQE: shortcut keys not working not not after changing Vista to XP

  I recently bought a PSAAQE Equium A100-338. It came preloaded with Vista home premium. I removed what I need XP pro. I found all the drivers to get everything works except the shortcut keys. I tried all the drivers available, but none works. Are there other drivers available for the access keys work.

  Can anyone provide a url to a site where I can get the driver. Also, why are there no XP driver specific available, it took forever to find all those that I needed. I know a lot of it, specialists and companies that will not use Vista and only allow for XP.

  For these features, you have no drivers but Toshiba has designed tools or utilities, but I fear that these tools are not designed for Windows XP Home edition. Not yet.

  I believe you when you say that to many it professionals want to use Windows XP Home edition, but if everything works well, but these buttons are not so important to the features of the laptop and any computer can do its job.

• Upgrading RAM and HDD on Equium A100-027

  Hello

  I have an Equim A100-027 and I already upgraded the two 512 MB to 2 GB 2 memory chips which is the maximum I can get?

  I've also already installed a hard drive over a 350GB one, but I'm looking to install a high - what is the maximum size that I could install? I guess that there must be a limit, but I was hoping that 750 GB to 1 TB would be OK.

  I appreciate all the answers - thanks in advance.

  Hello

  I'm afraid that 2 GB RAM ist the value of memory as possible which is supported by Equium A100-027 Mr. I have this chipset limitation.

  Upgrading the HARD drive must be possible from the controller SATA isn't limited to a certain size.
  That's why I think that 750Go should be possible

  Please share the news with us after finishing these updates.

• Equium A100-147 would not start

  Equium A100-147 would not start. Only the lights next to the CapsLock F10 F11 keys are on. When the switch is pushed the lights disappear back only after about 15 seconds.

  Help, please.

  Disconnect the power adapter and remove the battery. After doing this press the power for 30 seconds. Wait a few moments, connect the power adapter only and try to start your laptop.

  What happens when you do this?

• Equium A100-338 display has stopped working

  Hello

  I have exactly the same problem on my Equium A100-338 loaded with Vista.
  The display has stopped working (he went to a poorly lit black screen) after I had rebooted my machine even if the computer and the hard drive seems to work Ok with the lights on. I tried the usual elimination of power and the battery and restart it tricks, but after initial success it has stopped working after a few weeks.

  Once I had the computer operation that I only closed it down in the mode 'sleep', and he continued to work for a month until that he should be released after a windows update. I then plugged an external display and use of the Fn + F5 key got the external display running.
  Low and behold, the screen of the laptop started working again as if it had been "energised".

  I took what the laptop screen was OK and that he would not need replacement.
  The laptop worked OK until it needed to restart another when the unrest started again. The screens are gray on the monitor and the laptop now.

  These problems seem to point to a flaw in the display driver or VGA card, have you received updates or suggestions?
  Now, I bought another laptop Toshiba Satellite to connect to the forums trying to find out if my original computer can be repaired
  These problems seem to be quite common on Toshiba computers.

  Any help members would be welcome.

  > These problems seem to point to a flaw in the display driver or VGA card, have you received updates or suggestions?
  For the most part a graphics card driver must be reinstalled or updated to a newer version it can also be a problem of OS which means that the new facility could help
  But try to update the display driver

• Need a new fan of cooling for my old Equium A100-207

  Hi, I need a replacement fan for my Equium A100-207
  It started making a loud humming noise - it has only started to do today but has not let up since it was started.

  I took my laptop apart to see if I could sort by cleaning and fiddling with the fan, it has certainly had an effect - not as noisy or come all too often after shoveling a load of dust compacted, but noise is such that I can't really use it somewhere else than at home and only with headphones or high and loud music to muffle the noise can certainly go near a library with her!

  So I know how to replace ok, but no where can I buy a fan in the United Kingdom saw 2nd hand those on ebay, but don't touch them - could well be as bad! Another of those that I have seen that I can't be sure if they are the correct model, I put my laptop together again (typing this top).

  Ideally, I would like to purchase via Amazon that I have some good for here, but anywhere selling the good or one that will be enough is more than welcome. Or a way to sort the loud hum another that disable the fan altogether!

  Really appreciate all the help busy sending work so applications need to use my laptop for this and for job search.

  Thanks in advance.
  Mike.

  Hi Mike

  With laptops are quite complicated to find new hardware. Desktop you can find everywhere, but for laptops, it's quite complicated so you must try to find an online store where you can order parts of equipment for mobile units.

  As far as I know Amazon doesn't sell these parts.
  Best source for this is eBay. I bought several hardware components for my books there.

  By the way: do you have anything like thisneed?

• Equium A100 - 027: running slow

  Any help appreciated - my equium a100-027 running incrdeibly slow, especially shortly after the start.

  This is for all the excellent Internet programs.

  Sometimes I get an error message saying card Flash not working do not.

  Please help - thanks!

  Hello

  Satellite A100-027 seems to be equipped with 1 GB of RAM (2 x512MB)
  If you are using Win Vista or Win 7 then it would be desirable to increase the RAM up to 2 GB.

  You can also disable some background process is not necessary.
  You can do it in msconfig-> Startup tab.

  > Sometimes I get an error message saying card Flash not working do not.
  Well, the cards Flash is a utility that controls the FN keys.
  Perhaps this tool needs to be reinstalled again.

  Visit the page of European driver of Toshiba and download and reinstall the Toshiba Flash Cards Support utility.

  Good luck

• Equium A100-338 - battery power problem

  Hello

  My daughter has an Equium A100-338 bought England under Vista Home Premium 15 months ago. He has recently developed a problem with the battery life, which in theory should mean the replacement of the battery, but I'm not so sure!

  The battery quickly descends to say 80% 6 minutes remaining, about 20 minutes after a full charge. Then put it in charge that it retrieves to 100% in about 20 minutes. The notebook gets rather warm below, but I think it's probably normal, that old equium of my other daughter gets warm anyway.

  Someone has encountered this problem, or is it just that he needs a new battery? I would have thought that it would have lasted longer, the other Equium battery is still going strong and is one year more!

  Thank you
  Dave

  Hello

  Hmm I think that you battery is not dead and can be used much longer than you think.

  I see that you have Vista on your laptop. This OS needs more resources for laptop as the Win XP for example. This would mean that laptops preinstalled Vista would be shorter on the battery as the laptop with Windows XP.

  Finally, and especially the battery working time is highly dependent on the use of the laptop.
  If you play games or watch movies DVD battery discharges faster.

• Equium A100-338 - do I have to buy a recovery disk?

  Hello

  I have a bit of a dilemma. Vista on my Toshiba Equium A100-338 sticker is worn (was like that when I bought it). I upgraded my hard drive, installed Windows 7, then gave my old one (forget were the top recovery partition). I want to sell the laptop so back to its original State would be ideal.

  Toshiba said that I have to buy a drive for recovery for 29.90, which is ridiculous. Can someone help me?

  Details of the laptop: Toshiba Equium A100-338 PSAAQE-006008AV

  See you soon

  Hello!

  If you want to return factory settings as in the first start of the laptop, you can buy a Toshiba Recovery disk. This disc contains a picture of the factory settings, and so you can install the laptop in minutes with all Toshiba drivers and tools.

  But I put t understand why it is ridiculous for you. I mean normally get you on laptop Toshiba with Vista after the first start a message that you must burn the recovery disc yourself. It takes 10 minutes and you need only one or two DVD discs. I did it on my Toshiba laptop and I think you should take 10 minutes of your time to do this too.

  However, nobody says you have to buy the drive because you can also use a disc of Microsoft and download Toshiba stuff on the Toshiba page but you need so much more time.

  Good bye
