Hi Andreas

Your device is able to boot the operating system and one that is installed on your device?

Please check the BIOS settings and select the HARD drive first in the boot sequence.

    Hello

    Don t be angry against me and sorry for my next hard words but these statements likethis laptop should have wirelessor I tried to connect and nothing happensare bulls * t!

    Do you know what is Wlan and how does it work?
    Regarding your statement I n t think so!

    First of all why you propose this notebook should support the WLan card! Who told you that!
    I checked the hardware configuration of this laptop and Satellite A60 743 was delivered WITHOUT WLan minPCI card!

    Why you n t check in the first step!
    You should check the WLan card availability in Device Manager. Under network adapters, you should see the wireless network card.
    If the wireless network adapter does not appear, you have no. WLAN!

  • Satellite A60 and energy saving issues

    Hello

    I am facing a problem that drives me crazy. After I formatted my laptop and install Windows XP, I'm never able to install Toshiba Power Saver or any kind of Toshiba Utilities. Setup turns on, but after that, it displays an error message (sometimes just sound no message) and it stops.

    To be more precise:

    I use a Satellite A60-302, with extra addition of 256 MB of RAM. I formatted the C: partition and installed Windows XP Professional (I tried 3 different versions: right XP, XP with integrated SP1, XP with SP2 integrated; just to be sure if the problem was caused by service packs). Then I inserted the CD provided, put in place the ATI card, etc. its pilots respecting order but when it comes to saving energy, the nightmare starts.

    I removed the RAM I added and tried the whole installation by the original Setup process, but no change... My hard drives are well checked for any kind of virus, and the installation process was done with the ethernet cable connected to offshore to prevent any possible intrusion.

    Funny, I remember setting up Win XP Pro on this machine before 3 months no problem at all. The only significant change since that day is the update of the BIOS from 1.60 to 1.80.

    Looks like a "common modules" error but it is not "common modules", on the CD or on the internet.

    Finally, I must say that I can't use my recovery CD because it's Windows XP Home Edition in Turkish, but I use Windows XP Professional English provided by my employer.

    Any help? I'll be delightened if someone could help me.

    Hi sunfury,.

    I imagine you're nettled. But there must be a solution to your problem.

    You are right. There is no common Modules for this machine. Usually the common Modules, all Toshiba tools depend on. It is the main module.

    In your case, it is very important to use a specific order of installation. Normally, you must use the order of Installation set by Toshiba. You can find it on
    http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tools/satellite/SA60/win-XP/install_xp_na_en.zip.

    But there is also another solution. I usually install on this path:
    -OS
    -chipset + display driver
    -audio driver
    -fix for... (all)
    -one other drivers (modem, LAN etc..)

    When you want to install the tools of Toshiba try in this order:
    -Power Sawer
    -Init GST
    -TOSHIBA Hotkey Utility
    -TOSHIBA Hotkey Utility for display
    -Other utilities
    -TOSHIBA Console

    If you want to install SP2, maybe it will be better to do it later. It is also possible that some of the tools after installation of SP2 will not function properly.

    If you still have problems made me know.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite A60-131: Question about upgrade RAM and HARD drive

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A60 S-131, bought 2 years ago.
    I want to know is it possible for me to upgrade (internal) for a superior ability to HDD 40 GB HARD drive and update my RAM to 512 MB on the rise.

    Also I already inserted a 256 MB DDR RAM in the empty memory slot almost 1 year ago.

    Help will be appreciated.

    Hi Pranjal,

    You can definitley upgrade your hard drive for a larger version. You should find that a 80 or 100 GB will work fine. You should make sure that you get you a new disc with the same physical characteristics as you existing. The following link will help you remove the hard drive.
    http://irisvista.com/tech/laptops/ToshibaA65/satA65_1.htm

    You can also get a new hard drive with a more rapid rotation speed (5400 RPM or 7200 RPM).

    I think that the maximum RAM for the A60 is 1.25 GB which includes 1 X fixed module (I presume yours is 256 MB, which means that you can install an additional module with a capacity up to 1 GB. Available in capacities of 256 MB, 512 MB and 1 GB of RAM modules.

    Kind regards

  • Can I upgrade the memory and the graphics card on Satellite A60

    Hi all..
    I have a satellite a60 652.
    I want to improve it with new ram and graficcard.
    can I use more than 1, 5 GB of ram? later with an update of the bios?
    and if I can change the graficcard? If the answer is Yes... What is the best card I can actually use?
    or is there a map which is almost a geforce 7600 or 6600 (or ati 9700) I can use?

    Thank you for the help
    Ingo

    PS excuse my English ;)

    > I want to upgrade the ram and the new graphics card

    Upgrading RAM is possible but the graphics card is unable to be updated!

    If you want to upgrade the memory you could update to 1536 MB max.
    The A60 supports 512MB internal memory and it is so that one memory slot where the extra RAM module can be inserted.

    These modules are compatible:
    PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51)
    1024MO PC2700 (PA3313U-1M1G)

  • Satellite A60 summary failure and press a key to continue

    I have a problem with my satellite A60.
    I had the computer for about a year and a half and have never had any serious problems with it of any kind. However, last week the keyboard started to fail, first with only a few keys, then the full keyboard.

    It never bothered me much because I'm quite familiar with the Toshiba computers. So I connected an external keyboard, and I was back in business.

    I used it very well so far but I put the computer into hibernation last night and when I woke up this morning he said "resume failure and press a key to continue."
    I have keys and nothing happens, it just stay on this screen. I try to access BIOS by pressing ESC when I turn on the computer and the priority is set at STARTUP DO not RESUME, hover, it won't let me highlight to change anyway. The computer won't let me boot from the cd. Basically, it's just stuck on the screen and that's all.

    I wonder if there is another way to get around this or is my computer ended for good. I was running fedora linux at the time of the accident.

    Seems difficult but not insoluble it s...
    It resembles a hardware problem, but I won't for sure.

    This keyboardthing can be a defective keyboardcontroller, because your description of the error is describing a similar case that I got with my camera.
    I send the machine to my local servicepartner and they exchanged my motherboard and keyboard and after repair of the error, I had never bothered me again.

    Just a quick question: some fluids come from on your keyboard?

    Have a nice weekend

  • Update the BIOS and features on Satellite A60-682

    I have experienced a massive fall in my laptop.
    I tried to run the Toshiba Recovery disk and I also tried to format the drive with the XP installation CD. However, any attempt to recover the laptop (or even clean it and install it from scratch) have failed.
    From the looks of it, it would be that the BIOS is corrupted (probably due to a virus).

    This is why I would like to reinstall the latest version of the BIOS to see if I can overcome this problem.

    I went through for a few hours but could ' t, find a download for my laptop. It is a model of serias Satellite A60 (SA60-682). Any chance that you could - can someone provide me with the latest version of BIOS for this model?

  • Satellite A60-155 - powers on and then stops

    Hey guys,.

    I hope someone can help me with a problem with my old Toshiba Satellite A60 - 155.

    Recently, I sold my laptop on EBay, which worked perfectly at the time. When the buyer received the laptop, they found that is more things would turn out.
    Now that I got the laptop and actually like it buyer said that he will not start.

    When you press the power button the laptop seems to power on all the fans seem to turn, but the screen remains blank and after a few seconds it will turn off. I tried to remove the hard drive, battery and memory, and it didn't seem to help.

    I noticed that the power button is not lit blue as it should, in my opinion.
    I wonder if it has been damaged during transport, as it worked perfectly when I modified it used?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    This problem can refer to different material defects
    First the RAM may be damage
    One of my friends had a faulty RAM module and the laptop could light up or the air conditioner stops immediately after pressing the power button.
    The new RAM modules to solve this

    In your case the CPU or the motherboard might be affected too
    As you can see, it of not possible to say what part failures! You may need to visit a few technicians who could test the appliance and parts

  • Satellite A60-302: CD Player read DVDs and CDs but not burned discs

    I have a Toshiba laptop: Satellite A60-302 and I have a problem with the cd player. It can read DVDs and records I buy but it will not read burned discs (even the ones I burned with the portable computers own burner). Only from time to time, he will read a burned disc.
    I tried to clean the eye of laser of cd players, but it did not help.

    Anyone know what could be the problem?

    Hello

    This sounds like the CD burner doesn't burn CD correctly.
    You suggested that you used different types of CD.
    In the user manual, you will find a list of compatible media.
    These media has been tested and it works correctly.

    But if this happens with all CD, so possibly the drive cannot work properly and only a replacement would solve that problem.

  • Satellite A60 - overheating and decommissioning

    Hello

    As "[email protected]", I have similar problems with my Satellite A60.

    After about 10 minutes of normal use on a hard, flat surface, the laptop starts to become very hot and turns off (obviously overheating). He started only when working with heavy editing workload, but is now it does all the time.

    Is this a common fault with the A60? I've had mine for a little more than 12 months and had no probems, and now all of a sudden I can barely use the thing! (of course, it's just out of warranty)

    Any suggestions would be very appreciated,

    Thank you very much

    Mike

    Hi Mike,.

    That strangely resembles the typical issue of overheating that can infest the laptop users. Laptops use a metal matrix (similar to a car radiator) cooling to dissipate heat from the CPU when using, and if the airway through the matrix of the clogging of dust and debris, then a thermal trigger will be used to turn off the power to the laptop.

    Air suction fans act like small vacuum cleaners and pull ambient air dust in the matrix where it gradually accumulates and blocks the air flow.

    Try to use a hose of vacuum cleaner against the aspiration air grills to pick the accumulated debris. I do this with my laptop on a monthly basis.

    Kind regards
