• Windows 7 on Satellite M100-222

  Hello world!

  I want to install "Windows 7" (x 32) on my "Toshiba" "Satellite" M100-222 (PSMA1E).

  Anyone has the correct instructions on this subject? I have display drivers (ATI Mobility Radeon x 1400), the audio drivers ('Realtek' high definition audio codecs), 'Toshiba' Bluetooth stack v8.00.02.

  I have installed & checked these drivers. Everything works fine. I did install other drivers. Because 'Windows 7' found and installed the drivers during installation. Also chip drivers.

  Have problems with "Toshiba" VAP (value added package) v1.2.40. I received the error message the installation of VAP. This version of the VFR, I downloaded from the official site "Toshiba" especially for my laptop.
  I looked on 'Satellite' L500 VAP & Flash card utility technical support forum for 'Satellite' M100-221 (with BIOS v5.60). Maybe this method will solve the problem with VAP for my 'Satellite' M100-222 (v3.00 BIOS). I'll check it. But I want to know!

  Anyone use 'Windows 7' on 'Satellite' M100-222? Please, help resolve this task.
  Thank you all!

  I n t have this model of laptop and cannot say with certainty how it works with Windows 7, but what I know is this principle for Os and driver installation is the same for all operating systems.

  I checked the Toshiba download page and saw that you can download the Installation for Vista order document. Use this list for installing drivers, tools and utilities.
  I guess you have to make mixture between Vista and Win7 stuff.

  Follow this checklist and install Win7 stuff, if they are available. If something is missing, try to use the Vista stuff. It should work.

  Look at my old job round install Windows 7 on Toshiba Satellite M100-222

  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=59947&TSTART=0

  I think that on this forum we have relationships not so much about Win8 installing on old machines. For three months, I have U940 satellite. I got it with Win8 but after only one month I installed Win7.

  I imagine that you are curious about Win8 on this old model. Problem is that there is no support for this older model laptop and it will be very difficult to get everything working. I think you shoul d stay with Win7, but if you install Win8 please post a report and let know us how it works.

  It may be useful for other people who have older machines.

• Satellite M100-222: display panel dithering-> high compression like jpg

  I bought Satellite M100-222 2 days. Soon, I saw that solid colors like windows default blue or gray /many of others too / appear strangely - it seems that dirty, grainy, or as strong jpg compression.

  It is not only my opinion. As much as I know that some people who have had the same problem with the Satellite A100 series-, contributed to a bios upgrade. I have the new bios, 2.60 /25.01.2007/ new drivers for ATI x 1400 cards / but it's all the same... Graphics card seems to be ok - external monitor connected to the laptop seems good. So far, no solution.

  What to do with it, what do you think?
  Why is it like that? What's wrong?

  Hello

  I checked the issue described on Satellite M100-188 with TruBrite screen. It is visible on the white and clear areas, but on Start button while that turn off everything is OK.

  I'm really interested about service information, but I'm sure that there are no bugs and according to me, there is not much to do. I know it's much worse on a Satellite phone, and because of this, it has been updated from the BIOS.

  By the way: on my old Tecra M1 with LCD panel normal white background is also not 100% clear. But I must say that TryBrite on Qosmio laptops display is bright and much better than on M100. I really put t know what difference it there but perhaps portable multimedia expencive were simply better display.

  To see what service will say about this.

  Kindly enlighten me.

  (* 1) * If you ONLY upgrade Vista CD, then it s necessary to start the first restore XP CD, and then upgrade to Vista.

  (* 2) * usually start from the CD/DVD recovery must format the HARD drive and need to install the new image of Toshiba. Please check if you have started since the right recovery CD! Don't mix it with the Express Media Player recovery CD!

• Win7 need display driver for Satellite M100 - 222 (PSMA1E)

  Hello

  I got satellite M100 - 222 (PSMA1E).
  I replaced a hard drive (again).
  And I want to install Win7.
  I have formatted the new drive and that you have installed Win7.
  I understand what I need to install drivers for my laptop with Win7 OS.
  I download with this site (TOSHIBA).
  But I had a problem.
  Satellite M100 - 222 (PSMA1E) and Win7 is on the s Toshiba site only this driver:
  (10/29/09 Display Driver _nVidia_ for Windows 7-32 Bit 179.76)
  I didn t have no change after installing this driver.
  I remember that my laptop has _ATI Mobility Radeon® X1400_!

  Why Toshiba offer nVidia driver for my laptop with ATI Mobility Radeon® X 1400 preset chip?

  and

  * How can I install correctly display for my M100-222 Satellite (PSMA1E) with Win7 driver? *

  You're right ATI driver is not listed, but the same graphics card has Satellite Pro A100 and the good Win7 32-bit driver you can find HERE.

• Re: Satellite M100-222 hungs upward (gel)

  Hi all

  I bought Satellite M100-222 nearly 11 months ago.
  Three last month, I have a terrible problem. Laptop freezes after random time. I use a long down to the button / stop to turn off the and turn again.

  A few times after that restart the BIOS stops and displays errors: something like this: "PCI interface 1 confilct..., 2 PCI erc in conflict." I did some experiments. It seems that it is a hardware problem.

  I thing there is problem with HARD drive. It is filled to 90% and perhaps that some sectors are corrupted.

  Someone had this kind of problem?
  Please help me someone!

  Roman

  Hello

  I had similar problems, but on my old 1900 satellite. At the beginning everything was ok, but after a while the laptop was slower and slower until it stops responding. Just after the restart button walk / stop, I was able to work again.

  I founded a small tool on the net and check how many bad sectors, I was very surprised after HDD was listed. If possible, try to get another HDD and test with recovery installation DVD. I'm sure everything will be ok with new HARD drive.

  But if your laptop is 11 months old you should contact service as soon as possible. I assume that you will get a new HARD drive because the warranty is still valid.

  Bye and good luck!

• Screen grain/noise on Satellite M100-222

  Hello

  I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite M100-222, and the screen seems grainy! Look at the picture:

  http://kepfeltoltes.pirateclub.Hu/pics/20080924162302kep3.jpg

  The grey area has many small white dots. Is this normal?

  Your Satellite is pre-installed with original recovery image?
  In other words, your laptop has factory settings?

• Satellite M100-222: HDD temperature is approximately 50-53 degrees Celsius. Is this normal?

  Hello world!

  My Satellite M100-222 is warm enough after an hour of work. I decided to see the temperature of the CPU, graphics card and HARD drive and I noticed that the HDD temperatura is around 50-53 degrees Celsius. Is this normal? What is the temperature of the HARD disk on your laptop? Because on my desktop HDD temperature is 37 degrees.

  The CPU temperature is 47-50 degrees Celsius.

  Hi Stanislav

  Don t worry, everything is ok! The 50-53 degrees is not unusual.
  The temperature can increase to a higher level. I think that about 70-80 degrees, if the laptop is fully loaded and running with maximum performance.

  The temperature on the desktop PC is much lower because of the space inside your box.
  The cooling fans are bigger and run much faster than laptop cooling modules so that you should not compare laptop & desktop PC.

  However, as I said above, everything is ok. If the temperature reaches a critical level then the laptop turns off automatically.
  It is a thermal protection which is supported by computers laptop Toshiba!
