• Satellite A100-386 - HDD upgrade question

  Hello everyone and happy new year.

  First of all, sorry for my bad English.

  I bought a Satellite A100-386 a few years and I'm really happy, but my hard drive has failed.
  So, I wanted to know if I could put a 2.5 "SATA II disk, like this.

  http://www.materiel.NET/Disque-Dur/Hitachi-Travelstar-5k500-b-s-ATA-II-250-go-8-mo-48900.html

  because when I see the characteristics of the satellite, they mention a hard drive with only S - ATA.
  Y at - it compatibility?

  Thank you answer :)

  Bye bye

  Hello

  Yes, I think that this should be possible.
  The A100 supports hard drives SATA controller, and theoretically, you can use any HARD SATA 2.5 drive.

• Satellite A100-386 - how to upgrade the BIOS?

  Hello

  I wanted just to update my old Satellite A100-386 with 4 GB of RAM (2x2gb Crucial) instead of 1 GB, as I am now running Windows7 Pro 64 bit instead of the original XP 32.

  I read that I had to upgrade the BIOS as mine is v2.00. So, I downloaded the last of them.
  It seems to be an automatic upgrade of BIOS (S10V600.exe) as mentioned on the site Web of Toshiba.
  But when hit the .exe, I have a box of error message saying:
  "LOADPEDRV. "EXE: could not start the service.

  My question is: do I have to be 32-bit OS to run the upgrade of the automatic BIOS or is it possible to Flash the BIOS with a Windows7 64 bit OS run?

  Thanks a lot for all answer as I found no 'how to' in search on this forum.

  Best regards
  François

  Hi FPSim,

  Who said that you need to update the BIOS to upgrade RAM? The maximum RAM capacity depends on the motherboard and chipset and not BIOS.

  Official website of Toshiba, I have seen that the model supports 4 GB of RAM so the BIOS update is not necessary. Increase the RAM and everything is ok.

• Satellite A100-386: no internet access after the new XP installation

  Hi everyvody!

  I can do it myself, so I ask for your help!

  Then I install ALL the drivers I could find on the Toshiba site for my computer.
  This means that the PSAA9E. The problem is that I have no internet! I don't understand why.

  When I look in computer management, I have no ethernet, controller mass storage controller and network controller.
  I have zone alarm as a firewall and an antivirus avast!

  I disabled avast to be sure that he's not in it but no result...
  In Thoshiba drivers there is also something to update the BIOS.
  I did it but I didn't change. I hope the problem here not there...

  It will be really nice to help me ^^

  Hello

  I think that you just have not installed the right driver LAN and WLan driver

  As much as I know this laptop supports Intel Pro 100 Lan and WiFi Intel 3945ABG card card

  Please visit the European driver Toshiba page again and download the compatible network driver and the driver WLan.
  Unpack the packages, then install it.

  Finally check again if the LAN and WLan cards were recognized in the Device Manager in network adapters.

  Good bye

• Satellite A100 - 386 (PSAA9E) - support button

  Hello

  I would like to learn more about the special keyboard keys. I have 4 large buttons on the left side of my keyboard, maybe 6 under: "(internet, cd/dvd, lecture/pause, stop, retour en arrière/avant)."

  I would like to know everything about them: where are they in the control panel? How the Support Button works? How to record TBS are used?

  In fact, I would like to make them a job I want: I don't understand why I have 6 button, but only 2 (internet, cd/dvd) in the software 'button '.
  (of course, nothing happens whatever I set up in support of the key). Another thing: I have a strange Y instead, if the \ in the path of the Support Button. Is this really?

  My hardware: Satellite A100-386 (psaa9e)
  My software: Windows Visa Ultimate b 32

  Hello

  I can understand that you are so curious, but unfortunately no one will be able to give specific answers to your questions. I just write my opinion about it. I hope that you will agree with my opinion.

  In any case all these buttons are designed to make notebook easy and also more comfortable to use. As you can see there are two buttons that you can use to start an application and others are designed for a multimedia application.

  To be honest your sentence
  > I do not understand why I have 6 button, but only 2 (internet, cd/dvd) in the software 'button '.
  completely confused me. If you see 4 buttons are for multimedia I don't understand why you can't understand that. You can use them with EMP, WMP, and WinDVD.

  Exact explanation, how it works, you can find in s operating manuals. Maybe you can tell us how you want to configure all these buttons.

• HTTPS connection systematically disconnected every 2 minutes via VPN in Windows 8

  * Original title: VPN via https issues - win 8

  My wife works from home to connect to a vpn over an https connection and then connect to another piece of software based on the web through an https connection.

  It worked well until Christmas 2013 when she bought a new laptop with windows 8, upgrading to a connection high speed fiber (with the same Internet service provider) and had a new router.

  Since then it can connect to the vpn but once connected to everything that she's trying to connect an https connection systematically disconnected every 2 minutes.

  The vpn is connected, and also other programs outside the vpn as Skype and lync stay connected.

  His employer has built a new version of the web-based software as there was a problem with this and windows 8, but this has not solved the problem although it resolved all the problems of connection to his colleagues.

  Currently, she is able to connect via a desktop remotely to his employer (instead of the vpn) and then connect to the additional software via https.

  2 weeks ago she took his laptop in a House of colleagues and connected no problems whatsoever and maintained the connection.

  She informed her employer of which, after 3 months of development new software and maintenance to a remote office installation just for her, said now it must be a problem with the Internet service provider.

  PSI (EE) performed many tests and say there is no problem with the line and or they block certain ports etc.

  Today, she attempted to connect using a laptop with windows 7 (according to her an old) and had no problem that seems to rule out a problem of ISP or router problems.

  There seems to be a problem with windows 8 (regardless of Web browser - the same problem is present with ie, chrome or firefox), but only among us — even if I want to confirm that in trying a few more locations with different providers of Internet services, and that even in a different place)

  Anyway, after all this language of wood can anyone offer suggestions of what the problem may be or any what more ways to collect the information required to provide a solution.

  Thank you

• Graphics card on the Satellite A100-386 maybe replaced/implemented to date?

  Hi all

  Probably having heat with my satellite a100 problem, I ran to the point were the remains of dark screen and no boot at all!
  Everything has been cleaned inside the dust thermal paste applied on the three places needed.

  A few months ago, I put 2 RAM to 2 GB to she thrust a little: he was fine until a few days with moment stops after an hour or so at the end of the great: do not start with no beep, nothing except the fan and the power led.

  Open it, I saw the thing near the fan which could be the video card, which seems to be removable, quite rare is it not?

  If that's really remplaceable, I need to find the exact same, card nvidia geforce Go 7300 Tc, say on the card, or is there the possibility to put a better card?

  As far as I know, it does not reserve an establishing a removable part so can in any way with the other parts of the computer to change (compatibility), unless it is for reasons of cost...

  Thanks for help

  AFAIK GPU is not extensible and on some model GPU is not fixed on the motherboard and can be exchanged. If you want to replace it than just with the same if one only, you will be able to buy a.

  >.. no more boot with no beep, nothing except the fan and the power led.
  That is a little strange that there is no sound signal. To me, it sounds like a BIOS problem.

• Instability Wireless: Atheros AR9285 briefly disconnects every few minutes

  I bought an ASUS K50ID on Newegg and tried to connect to my Netgear wireless-N, through its Atheros AR9285 (who claims to have installed the latest drivers)

  Connections starts without a hitch, but after awhile, I noticed that the connection would be cut at random for just a second.  It was not bad enough to attract my attention just browsing, but when I tried to use Windows Live Messenger, it disconnect me every 5 or 10 minutes, and then I would sign immediately.  He would say that he had to reconnect to the network, is not just a problem of software with WLM.

  I have disabled the option to turn the card wireless for powersaving (also, it's funny that it uses by default this option to 'on')

  I looked for manual updated driver, but Atheros website is confusing and sometimes in French and is not my card the list of drivers, only for more information.

  I checked my router settings, etc., and it seems fine.  It of just that sanded Atheros AR9285 and its lack of will to stay connected! Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to provide.

  P.S. I also disabled the IP assistance service, someone said that it can solve. There can be no.

  Hello

  Check with ASUS updated drivers manually as well as possible firmware updates for the
  Netgear router. Also check the placement of the router - if it is closer to 6 feet or too far-
  is there a lot of electrical interference or metal in the line of fire - or too many walls - different
  floors of level - or just distance.

  Of course there would be something wrong with the new computer - or the router.

  Check with the ASUS support and their forums.

• wrt610N disconnects every 6 minutes

  My old WRT54G worked very well but he died. Replaced by a WRT610N. Works very well for about 6 minutes, then it disconnects from my computer first and then disconnects internet. I have to turn off and then she does it all over again. Failed to get through a help desk. Help. Suspect this is a new setting. Cannot understand it.

  After about 20 min waiting on the phone, finally got through Linksys. Tech has an another 30 min with me, said that there is no firmware for the 610N updata and ultimately determined that the router is due. I returned and exchanged for a new WRT610N and Yes, works fine. Have used it for more than 12 hours straight without any disconnection so far. Also added a 3rd computer to the network wireless without any problem.

• Satellite A100 - 386 compatibility memory PSAA9

  Hi all!

  I want to add some memory to my laptop and try a couple that works, but I get a few bugs because this seems to be related to the fact that I put pc5300 memory rather than pc4200 memory... The strange thing is that it works very well and only bugs when reading music and flash movies!

  No one knows with certainty what type of memory can use... What is the most important actxually, him CAPAS (533) or the pc4200... How do I know what memory I can buy and keep in mind that it will work, even if I throw the real one if there are compatibility problems?

  Thanks a lot for the tips!

  You can delete this post, I was going the wrong way... Sorry...

• Satellite Pro L50 - A disconnects from the WiFi every 20 minutes approximately

  I searched around on the internet for advice.

  I downloaded the latest drivers from toshibas website, I put my power maximum output on Device Manager, and it is not my ISP, as happens at any hotspot wi - fi including familys homes, work, etc..

  Please, how I stop my laptop to disconnect every half hour, it disrupts the Skype teleconferencing and downloads.

  I am running windows 7 64 bit and it's your laptop brand new I bought a month ago has soon

  > I put my power to the maximum on Device Manager.

  I guess you mean the Win 7 Power Management.
  Here a nice HowTo on + Win 7 power management +.
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD12017W0001R01.htm

  Here you must concentrate on Wireless Adapter Power Saving Mode settings
  There are four energy saving / performance parameters. If your Wi - Fi connection is unstable or slow, try selecting a higher performance tuning.

  This must be done for power profile that you use mode battery and sector.
  I would also recommend to check different settings of the Wlan router.

  Check if your laptop disconnect Wlan which has no security (open) and various parameters of WiFi (WPA/WPA2 AES or TKIP) encryption

  I also recommend you update the WLan driver (if possible)
