• Multimedia keys not working only not on the Satellite A200 - 14 d

  Hello!

  I have problem with my multimedia keys. They don't work after installing WXP and all drivers. Only key work is WWW browser. I wanted to put DVD/CD key to start winamp, but it is impossible. I can put this control controls and panel\Toshiba, but it still doesn't work. Also in the case of default CD/DVD settings key does nothing.

  I tried also to play, stop, next and prev keys in winamp hotkeys (options\preferences\global hotkeys winamp), but I can put only 1 key. When I am pressing the play button in the shortcut field keyboard winamp, it says "0 x 1770001", but after I save it turns into '0 x 1000000 '. Also when I am pressing the Stop button, it says 'E', and after save it also evolves into '0 x 1000000 '. And analog: prev button - '0 x 1740001', by pressing the next key - ""(only space), but after save this settings it also evolves into '0 x 1000000'. "."

  So only the first shortcut key works - for all the multimedia keys. Can you give me some tips to solve this problem?
  PS. [Sorry for my English:]

  Hello

  All the multimedia keys are designed to work with Microsoft Media Player and not for use with other media players. Install a few plugins for Winamp. Please see this section on Winamp on Toshiba laptops.

• 4 GB SD card not working after installing XP on Satellite A200 - 1 M 8

  After you install windows XP, Cap card reader, even if it means reading 4 GB SD cards.

  In addition, there are several currencies for which windows needs drivers and also the Bluetooth does not work.

  What should I do?

  P.S. for laptop - A200 - 1 M 8

  Hello

  A 4 GB SD card worked on the use of the Vista operating system?

  It would be very strange because as far as I know the multiple digital media card slot which was equipped this notebook supports only the between 8 MB and 2 GB SD card capacity.

  Have you checked the user manual?
  Please check. Especially the operating manual provides many details on sizes and compatible cards.

  By the way; to solve the problem of BT, you install the Bluetooth driver!
  The last pilot BT can be found on the Toshiba BT Portal:

• FN key not working after installing winxp on Satellite A200 1CJ

  Hello

  I got my winxp pr satellite. And I found all drivers xp, including shortcut keys for my mobile on www.toshiba.nl.
  But now no longer works FN - F6, F7, F8, F9 & F10. These are the functions to configure the brightness, wireless network, power & utility Zoom mouse pads.
  Someone can help me. I already try a lot of shortcut keys, but it won't work.

  I hope someone can help me.

  Best regards

  Hello

  For the use of the FN functions you need some Toshiba designed and utility tools. Unfortunately they are not available yet. Obviously Toshiba didn t start support WXP A200 but I hope it will happen soon.

• FN keys not working not not on my Satellite A200

  I have the same problem with A200-1J6 with Vista.
  Just a new notebook, didn't reinstall the system.
  They work, but now they do not have and I don't know how to activate them.
  Fn + F10 and Fn + F11 works, but I need the others, too.
  Can you help me?

  The FN keys on the Vista operating system are attached to the Toshiba Vista Flash card utility this utility is located in the Toshiba value added package, which can be downloaded from the page of European driver of Toshiba
  I think that first of all, you must reinstall the driver of Toshiba Common modules, then the utility Vista Flashcards.

• Webcam not working only not on the Satellite - the unit is locked by another application

  I use the webcam on the laptop on Skype that was fine one day following order.
  I've updated the drivers and all, but I get a message on the toshiba webcam application indicating... .device is locked by another application... when I try in Skype, I get the message... cannot start video try closing other applications that may be using your webcam.

  The problem is that I have no idea of what he does.
  I do not use yahoo Messenger or any other program.

  The only program that I've never used webcam for Skype is.

  Help, please!

  Hey Buddy,

  Can send you more information about the exact model of laptop and operating system?

  What drivers you have updated?

  Usually if you reinstall the driver for the webcam, this should solve your problem and should make the webcam usable again. You can download the new software of the webcam on the official website of Toshiba.
  In addition, I recommend using a registry cleaner like CCleaner which can remove old registry keys.

• Satellite A200 PSAFCA-01H00J upgraded to 4 GB of RAM but can see only 3 GB

  Hello

• Satellite A200 crashing when moved or when the CPU usage is too high

  Well so recently my Toshiba Satellite A200 started crashing everytime I have to pick up the laptop or run any processes taking the CPU up to 100% usage.

  This means essentially no rendering 3D games and no Photoshop or current iTunes running at the same time, etc. Here are the best even if it happens only when the laptop is plugged and not when only battery power. I tried to use another AC adapter, and I cleaned the hard drive for a new installation of Windows 7 that never solved the problem. I even went so far as to update the BIOS.

  I am not quite determined that he is just a hardware problem, but I was wondering if anyone had suggestions about which party can act up on me. As I said still works like a dream when running on battery power.

  > Here is the kicker if this happens only when the laptop is plugged and not when only battery power.

  The energy saving switch to another profile, using the AC adapter.
  Maybe you can try to change the speed of treatment at a lower level and could increase the cooling method parameters in the energy saving profile when the AC adapter is in use.

  Otherwise, it could be a hardware problem and in this case, you will need a help of ASP.

• Satellite A200 - fan works too

  Hello

  I will present my problem briefly to you in the hope that I can find a solution.

  I work with recording music. My Satellite A200 can handle the processor high and all the rest. I'm really very happy.

  But the fan works just too well even when CPU is not used much. I installed The Ultimate Troubleshooter (excellent software) in order to eliminate unnecessary software or process. My RAM is 73% free, low 0-10% CPU and my fan speed is measured at 47 degrees Celsius. My hard drive is 33 degrees Celsius. Very low.

  The boring bit, is that my fan is behaving intermittently, but even when nothing is really happening, and the temperature is still very low. I have another laptop to compare to, which is quiet and peaceful in the other corner of the room and only takes action when I activate several operations at once. I wish my Satellite to behave in a similar way.

  I cleaned the fans today, and a lot of dust came out. But still the fan curve. I tried to take control using SpeedFan 4.43, but it does not work. I don't see anywhere in the BIOS how I could control the speed of the fan.

  I need to find a solution, ideally one that doesn't involve buying a new fan, or disassemble the computer. Since the temperature is right at all times, I guess it's just the BIOS programming for constant speed activity that must change. Any suggestions? It would be appreciated.

  All the best, Shlomi.

  Hi shlumaan_1,

  > I cleaned the fans today
  How did you do that? Did you follow the instructions?
  How to clean a Toshiba laptop cooling system?

  There are different reasons for activity high fan and dust that blocks the fan, the thermal paste should be renewed, etc..

  Fact is that the fan will be controlled automatically to protect the equipment from overheating. What you can do is chancing the cooling method in Windows power management. I put t know what operating system you use but on Vista and Windows 7, open the power management options, change the parameters of the plan, cooling method. You can change between maximum performance and battery optimized. I would recommend setting the optimised battery.

  Also, check the BIOS version. If you have an older version, probably thermal management has been changed with a new version of the BIOS. Update the BIOS that you find on the official website of Toshiba.

  Finally, and especially if your laptop probably has a few years, that the thermal compound must be renewed. This is why I would contact an authorized service provider that will apply the correct thermal grease and also the laptop must be disassembled. Not so easy
