• Satellite A100-405: [Pickup and return] what information is required?

  I bought a Satellite A100-405 today and I have a problem with my screen (it produces sounds iritating). I phoned the Dutch Toshiba helpline and they said they will pick up tomorrow. I needed to write the number of application Service and address according to the guy on the phone.

  Is there anything else that I should put on it to help the DHL soon to Toshiba (Netherlands)?

  Concerning

  No, I'm Don t think we should give additional information from DHL. Just send your machine to Toshiba and they will handle the rest. Well, worry not Don t, buddy.

  Everything will be fine, because I did it 2 times and everything was OK.

• Satellite A100-405 - HARD 7200 RPM disk upgrade

  I want to know if I can improve the my Satellite a100-405 with a fujitsu hdd 7200 sata-II

  The original is FUJITSU MHV2160BT sata 150 MB/s depending on the Everest software.

  SATA controller is compatible and that's why it is not a big problem to use the SATA II HDD SATA I (150 MB/s) HARD drive.

  But of course the SATA II HDD will not reach full implementation and speed will be slowed to the limitation of SATA controller.

• Satellite A100-405: black cracked screen

  Hello world

  I have problem with my laptop its TOSHIBA SATELLITE A100-405 and 2 year old so no warranty now.

  Just before 2 weeks his fall and lcd cracked, but even after cracking at least I was using it normally without replacement and wished to replaced soon but yesterday when I uninstalled the sound toshiba virtual (because it still looks like echo) suddenly collapsed knees work once uninstalled this virtual sound.

  I have to press power button to the market, but even after its on, I see on the screen.
  I tried to put the recovery disk, but after that, I don't see anything on the screen.

  Can you help me please what that is the problem, it is because of this cracked screen or uninstalled virtual sound.
  I hope that someone will help me solve this issue.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  I doubt that an uninstall of the virtual sound would lead this display problem
  I m sure that this display problem appears because the laptop has dropped down in the past

  I think you should contact an ASP in your country for a LCD test and perhaps you will need a new.

• Failure of the graphics card on the Satellite A100-405

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba A100-405, which has a Geforce go 7600 graphics (specifications).
  Yesterday, playing a game, all of a sudden the frozen screen and showed a lot of horizontal stripes.
  I tried to restart the computer, but succeeded only in safe mode. The bands have not disappeared. (funny colors, such as low resolution, stripes, blocks, etc.)

  Question 1: Is my assumption that the graphics card is in correct failure?

  Question 2: Can this card easily replace? And if so, which would cost only? (in EUROS)

  Looking forward to your answers.

  Roel

  Hello

  These funny funny colors, as low resolution, stripes, blocks are called artifacts (adverse alteration in the data, introduced by a technical and/or technological). It seems that the dysfunction of the graphics card. To be sure, connect the external monitor to check. Talk about the replacement, if it is integrated in the motherboard, the entire motherboard must be replaced. It costs about 35% of the total price computer laptop, as you can see that it is quite expensive.

  Also, from my own experience I know, sometimes these artifacts occur because of the graphics card overheating due to dust. Do not be lazy to clean the laptop with the jet of compressed air. Otherwise, contact the ASP (SAV) and prepare the money.

  Welcome them

• Cooling fan still works with an average speed on the Satellite A100-405

  Hello guys,.

  If anyone can give me a reason why my satellite cooling fan is always running at speed average. I shot all the "Toshiba Power Saver Properties" settings, to "Battery Optimized" condition and so I took the battery, and the pleasure of cooling is still running and operating at average speed. I'm in a place of model (18 Aºc) without any direct exposure to the Sun or heat.

  If you can help me about whether or not it is a normal condition. I think that it is not normal to have fun all the time for work. Runs normally for 2 minutes and stops during a similar period (used to be the case in other phones that I had in the past).

  Maybe, I need to set or check adjustments internally or in the Bios. I really don't know and I'm really worried about it.

  Thanks guys... Please respond.

  Laptop cooling depends on the use of laptops and the applications that run on the laptop.
  Strong performance of the software is running on the laptop each part as CPU and GPU produce a lot of heat.
  Have you tried to use a material like Speedfan monitoring tool.
  SpeedFan is a freeware program that monitors voltages, fan speeds and temperatures in computers with hardware monitor chips

  But back to the energy saver. In the eve of power configuration, you should try to the CPU for auto control method and try to change the processor, the speed of processing and cooling method.

  Don't forget that there is enough free space around the laptop. It is important for the circulation of fresh air.

• Satellite A100-405: after ranging from sleep USB devices will work

  When I bought my laptop about a month ago, I received a message on the peek at the energy of usb hub (I hope it's the right translation, because I have a Dutch version) whenever I have start from standby mode.
  On the windows site, he said that you can turn off this message, so I did.
  But now when I start the laptop to sleep, my usb devices no longer work.

  Can someone please help me solve this problem. Or can someone tell me if it is a hardware problem that can't be solved by returning the laptop for Toshiba?

  Hello

  You must update the BIOS again! There is a new version 5.20 !

  This should fix any problems that may occur after the update to version 5.10 of Bios.

  Please come back and to report if this procedure has helped or not! Good bye

• Satellite A100-405: keyboard shortcuts don't work on Vista

  Hello

  I recently installed vista ultimate on my computer toshiba laptop, everything seems to work well, except the shortcut keys.
  Is it possible to download the drivers for keyboard somewhere, without having to put all these tools Toshiba on?
  I really don't want these uttilities on my laptop since barely ever used, in fact I didn't even know what most of them did, except using the memory and discspace...

  Bart

  Hi dude

  Because each operating system uses Microsoft's own common drivers, there is no special keyboard drivers.
  You n t need the keyboard driver for the FN keys running. You must install the Vista Toshiba value added package. This package contains several utilities that are needed and must be installed to get the features of Toshiba works.

  Please note that the driver Toshiba common Modules must be installed first.

  Best regards

• Satellite A100-405 has problems when working on sector

  Hi everyone (sorry for my bad English)

  When the laptop is charging or just work on sector it slows down (he sews to doesn't work does not correctly), but the biggest problem is when I play (a simple game that does not have the best perfomances like Midtown Madness 2) or a recent game like NFS carbon it does not start the game, it stops and I need to restart or when I'm looking for a movie (especialy with windows media player) It slows down or stops the game

  When I use it on the battery, it will not disappear or happen less often.

  At first, I thought it was a software problem, but I tried all bios, chipset, video card, recovery of product update and other system (xp pro,...) it did not help

  I don't think it's the battery because I deleted and tried to work on the area, the problem was still there

  I do not have an idea more so someone might help (and sorry again for my English bad hoop you understood what I wrote)

  my configuration:

  Centrino duo t2050 1.6 GHz
  1024 MB of RAM memory
  NVIDIA geForce go 7600 256 MB

  Hello

  so if you really tried everything then it would be wise to bring your machine to a local certified partner for a checkup of material.

  I suggest you follow this link:

  You can search the center of service available in your country and send them to your machine. They're going to take a look, you may have some serious hardware problems.

• Satellite A100 screen backlight works, but no display

  Just in the process of establishing a Satellite A100 that works very well through the connection of the external monitor but when switched over to using Fn + F5 LCD screen, the backlight turns on but there is no display at all, just a black screen lit.

  I suspect it is the screen that is past and not on the cord (have a screen on order) so will update here but I just thought that I would keep you updated on the progress.

  Has anyone else had this error?

  Steve

  Hello Steve

  The fact is that your laptop is a malfunction of the equipment, and it must be fixed by replacement. To ask if anyone has had this fault won't help you a lot. You need to fix it anyway.

  My question is: might want to fix you alone?

• Satellite A100 backlight and wirless conflict

  Hello Forum,

  I have Satellite A100, STUPIDLY, I spilled coke on the keyboard and now the laptop is showing the following behaviors:

  1 screen backlight turns off after the bios screen
  2. in order to bring the backlight of the screen, I have to stop the wireless!

  In other words, if:

  Wireless is OFF screen, backlight is ON
  Wireless, it is the backlight on the screen is OFF

  Apart from all the rest seems fine, I connected the laptop to external monitor and it displays normally.
  I want to help diagnose the please the problem, I disassembled the laptop and it is completely dry, but it still can t accept to have the screen and ONE wireless at the same time.

  Thanks in advance ^^
  Wailo

  Hello

  I think that the spilled liquid has damaged something on the map.
  Maybe the contact of the Wlan switch is damaged or the fluid cause short-circuit some

  As you can see, it's really not easy to say what's wrong here, but it is certainly something wrong on the motherboard
  I think the laptop must be disassembled and unique pieces like the map of wireless network WLan miniPCI and etc. must be verified
  Of course, this is a job for a technicians...

• Satellite A100-036 - label Microsoft OEM are broken

  Hello!

  Tag Microsoft OEM on my Satellite A100-036 (s/n 37059063Q) has been partially damaged, and I can't read product s/n (Windows Vista HB).

  How can I fix this label? Or I have to buy the new OS?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  The serial key belongs to the Windows operating system which is part of the Toshiba recovery image.
  This means that, in most cases you cannot use it as part of other versions of Windows.
  Moreover Windows system which is part of the image is already enabled for this serial key is not really necessary
  If you don t have a recovery disk (maybe you forget to create it in the past) you could try to order it here: http://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx
  But I don't very well if this would be possible because of the age of the computer laptop m

  In the case otherwise you need a Microsoft disk to install the Windows OS, but in this case, each Microsoft Windows disk is provided with own serial key

• Satellite A100-998: mono/stereo mix not available under Vista

  Windows Vista and the Microsoft default value "High definition Audio Device" driver (automatically selected and installed by Setup of Vista), no recording device is listed with the exception of the Microphone, Line In, CD Audio, as in this screenshot of the A100-998 in question:
  http://img230.imageshack.us/img230/1981/a100998jp6.PNG

  No new Mix or record Waveout options of the device, which means that you can not, for example, doesn't record audio stream on the Internet. I tried the latest drivers from Realtek HD Audio for Vista (30/11/2006 R1.52). No change. Is there a way/driver to enable this as in other Windows Vista machines.

  Is also the audio material in the A100-998 "Vista Premium Ready" with the specifications set out in the http://www.optimalsound.net/?

  It's the third disappointment. The first two were that he has not delivered with the announced NVIDIA GF7400 (came to the square with 7300) and the second is that the hard drive is 4200 RPM (instead of the advertised 5400).
  The third issue is the audio issue detailed above.

  Here is a solution I found, but it is not free (costs $US28.20) and requires users to manually switch the "playback devices" each time that they execute it:
  http://www.NCH.com.au/SoundTap/index.html
  Unlike other programs like Audacity which are based on the Waveout/Mono/Stereo Mix as their sound source (and so do not work in this case), NCH SoundTap installs its own virtual driver and is therefore able to record everything you hear through your speakers in Windows Vista without the need for Waveout/Mono/Stereo Mix. "All the sound elements are"typed"by a pilot virtual directly in the kernel, so the process is perfect digital quality."

  However, it would be better that Vista Realtek/Toshiba/Microsoft "High definition Audio Device" driver is updated to include the Waveout/Mono/Stereo Mix (under "recording devices"), so that programs that rely on it are broken. SoundTap can do on Vista means that it is not a hardware limitation.

  PS new Vista sound effects as Loudness equalization, Room Correction, Bass Management and Virtual Surround are already supported in the current drivers Vista (the driver from Realtek v1.52 and that by default by Microsoft) in Satellite A100-998.
