Equium A100-027 - switch problem ON / OFF wireless

Hi all

This problem has been irritates me for some time...

I've literally just installed MCE 2005 after removing the Vista OS and I ve installed all drivers except for the purposes of ConfigFree.
I noticed that the switch to turn on/off my wireless card now does not, because it allows me to scan/connect to networks, even when it is in the off position, with the led does not illuminate.

When I ran before ConfigFree, I noticed that switch was correct entry in the application, but I still couldn't windows to disable the wireless adapter once I turned off.

I played around with shortcut keys and I ve you press FN + F8 (the symbol wireless) and I've made countless times, but have had no result.
If anyone knows what is the problem?

Thank you very much

Matt

Great info!

I noticed that most of the WiFi problems can be solved by upgrading the WLan driver.

Thanks again for this useful detail!

  • Equium A100-027 - bad wireless connection

    My Toshiba Equium A100-027 has problems connecting to a wireless network.
    We have recently received Virgin broadband and it works for everyone!

    It is only wireless which is faulty, when the cable is connected it works fine.
    Is it possible to test if it's my computer or the broadband that is faulty?

    Anyone else had problems with their Wi - Fi?

    Thank you

    Hello

    You must run these common tests;
    -update the WLan driver
    -check if the WLan card is activated on this laptop. You must activate the WLan switch on the side of the laptop (LED should be on) and use the FN + F8 buttons to choose the WLan card.
    -Check the standard WLan (802. 11 A B G) local area network and router WLan card should support the same! WLan card settings can be changed in the Device Manager-> card WLan-> properties-> Advanced tab
    s ' ensure that WLan encryption is just and WiFi encryption password has been set correctly.

    Good luck

  • Equium A100-027 touchpad not responding

    I have an equium a100-027 and today the touchpad was funny.
    For example, I went to move and sometimes it wouldn't be no move, moved very little, or when he moved quickly moved to around to the same place that it was before.

    I assumed that maybe it's just that my computer has been used too much memory or something. But then later, it no longer responds. I restarted my computer and the same problem, it does not move.

    Before anyone suggests, I in fact checked all the settings for it. I know there is a shortcut (fn + f9) to turn it off.
    However, I already checked and it is activated.
    I am falling quickly with this computer, six months old and already had two problems with it.

    Anyone can suggest a way to solve this problem, or should he be returned to be repaired?

    If it must be returned, how should I do this?
    I bought of Dixons, and when I came down to them with my last number, they said they have no responsibility and I had to call "the tech guy".

    This ended up being A £1.50 tech support number overcharge, which I'm not call again.
    This laptop has only 6 months, clearly under warranty. I don't have to pay who knows how much on a phone call just to get it fixed.

    Sorry if this sounds like a hangover, just in a bad mood with this computer at the minute.
    Thanks for any help! =-)

    Hello

    I see that you're desperate. Sorry to hear this story.
    But before you send this laptop to any point of service, you must reinstall the laptop with the Toshiba Recovery CD.

    This procedure will put the laptop to factory settings!

    If the touchpad does not work after reinstalling new contact ASP in your country.
    The service provider authorized in your country will be able to help you and if your warranty is valid, everything must be done for free.

    I can't believe that the appeal could cost about £1.5 because it s a common phone number.

    If you want to find the ASP please check this:

  • Equium A100-027: unable to connect to D - LINK 514 router via WiFi with Vista

    I HAVE PROBLEM WITH MY TOSHIBA EQUIUM A100-027 MOBILE TO CONNECT THE ROUTER D-LINK 514. I HAVE WINDOWS VISTA ON MY LAPOP.

    I can't get the laptop to connect to my network using its internal wireless card. He's going to detect it but when I click on connect I am presented with "Windows cannot connect to the network.

    SOMEONE CAN ME SAY THE SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM.
    Thank you

    Hello

    I put t think it is a hardware problem and therefore, you should check your access point and the configuration of the WLan card.
    Did you use a WLan encryption, Mac address filtering?
    If so, disable encryption on the WLan router and try to connect to the network without additional security settings.

    If it will work and you can successfully connect to the WLan and then the problem was caused by incorrect security settings.

    Please check!

  • Equium A100-027: could not find the drivers for Windows XP

    Hello
    I bought an equium A100-027 and, because of my work, I want to use a personal OS XP - Pro, I bought the retailer 2006 Microsoft.
    The problem is that XP installs successfully, but I can't find the drivers on the Toshiba Download Page.
    The laptop TYPE is witch PSAAQE is not listed. I tried to use the drivers provided by other series A100 PSAAxxx but XP does not accept. I managed only with the Intel graphics driver... How can I do?
    I sent a mail to support Toshiba in France and they redirect me to the download page of drivers even DO NOT contain any driver for my laptop... (it does not appear there).
    It is mandatory for me to use XP - Pro, because we use it for industrial automation, so I can't use Vista! seriously, I bought a PC that do not work on XP?

    Best regards
    A.Lazreg

    Hello

    You re right. I also checked the site and don't find your notebook in the series.
    Hmm you have tested other drivers Equium A100 series but also check the Satellite A100 series pilots.
    The Equium A100 Satellite A100 and very similar specifications and possibly some drivers will also work on yours.

    Toshiba Canada also provides different drivers. Take a look at this page:

  • Re: Equium A100-027 battery does not charge

    I have an Equium A100-027 aged from 4 months which worked flawlessly until last night. My wife was using it when it ran out of power and we do charge again. The box on the cable becomes hot butno power seems to go to the computer laptop itself. Any ideas please?

    Hello

    Can you can start and run the notebook without the battery and only connected to the adapter?
    The AC is light on?

    If not then the problem could be linked to the defective sector adapter and I recommend you check it by a Toshiba ASP.

    I enjoyed some comments!

  • Equium A100-027 - speaker works intermittently

    Hello

    Has just developed a problem after my laptop Equium A100 - 027 for only two years.

    Speakers began to intermittently fail. They worked last Thursday and then for a short time Friday. rebooting when I started the PC this morning but have stopped working this afternoon.

    When I play a video (e.g. YouTube) there is no volume at all and yet when I open the volume mixer I see audio visibly displayed.

    Any ideas on what the fix should be?

    Thank you

    Hello!

    First of all, I would say you should test the helmet on the laptop. So you can determine if the problem is hardware related (internal speakers) or related software.

    And have you checked for yellow exclamation marks Device Manager?

    In addition, you should try to update the audio driver. You can find it on the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    Moreover, what operating system you have?

  • Alarm of battery low battery/criticism on Equium A100-027

    I bought an Equium A100-027 running on Vista Home Premium this Feb. Since then, I installed some software, for example a software phone Nokia, bluetooth, Virus-A drivers & all updates from Ms.

    When the battery is low or critical, I get no sound alert, despite this option checked in the Advanced Power Options settings and using the template to default sounds Win.

    The card sound & speakers work certainly I get sound notifications of Win and can play CDs, etc.

    Is there a driver/software that can be reinstalled to get this working again as system restore would only let me go back a month.

    Thanks for any help,

    Hello

    I saw your post before, and I understand that you need help.
    I can give you the following suggestion:

    -Updated to the latest version of the bios. (Check this site out: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_bios.jsp?service=EU&mode=allMachines)

    -Pick up your machine and update all THE drivers/tools/etc, but before installing some 'foreign' software, check if the "beep" is working properly (for things like go here):
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp)

    -Install other software (Nokia Manager, etc.) and check after each newly installed software, if it still works. If after you install specific software, the "beep" doesn´t work anymore, then you know where the installation problem and you have some good software troubleshooting. ;)

    If you have questions: just after :)

  • Equium A100 - 027 Vista: the screen goes black for just 1 second

    I was wondering if anyone here can tell me what is the problem with my laptop. That's all new Toshiba Equium A100-027. Quite often, my screen will turn black for just a second, and then it will return to normal again.

    I changed my power settings, so it is not because of the screen laptop will. Most of the time, it's going to happen when I run the program in full-screen on real player, but it happens when I play mahjong titans which is included in microsoft vista.

    HM, just a small suggestion to check if you have a hardware related problem or some software:

    Connect your laptop to an external monitor and see if the problem still occurs.
    If the problem occurs with an external monitor then check that you have installed the software and try uninstalling the last installed software, perhaps the best will be step by step.

    So if all else fails, then try a recovery.

  • Equium A100-027: Audible 'slip' in his o/p when the SRS is enabled

    For users who use Band-In-A-Box, I found the accentuation of the sound (SRS) creates unacceptable noise (almost a "" hissing) when you use BB - and is especially noticeable at the intro to songs.
    Rendering of songs produce the same symptoms and I found that it is better to disable SRS on the Equium A100 027.
    The problem is not limited to the BB, but I noticed more in this application.

    Hello

    I don t use a Band-In-A-Box applications, but maybe this software isn't 100% compatible with Vista and the SRS service.
    Maybe the guys at support BB could provide more details and information

  • Equium A100-027: is it possible to update the graphics card?

    I recently received an Equium A100-027 for my birthday. Overall I am very happy with it, but the only problem I have is with the graphics card. I'm a gamer, and the graphics card just can't handle more modern games.

    I am looking how to change, how much it cost etc. However I don't want to buy a graphics card just to realize that inside is locked. Since it's only a week I want to take a hammer to it right away ;-)

    Can someone tell me how it is difficult to upgrade the graphics card? It is locked, or easily accessible?

    Hello Eamonn

    Unfortunately, upgrading the graphics card is not possible. I'm don't know if you're familiar with cell phone technology, but you should know that graphics cards installed on laptop motherboards are not same as the GPU for desktop PC s s.

    The map is fixed and there is no way for an upgrade!
    You can upgrade the memory or HARD drive on laptop computers but not the graphics card!

    I also have a player m and I m a laptop owner but I don t use this device for games, but for a typical use like the internet, programming, members, etc.
    I have a second game machine and it s a desktop PC. It s supports a map of water cooling module and a really great graphics, but I'll change it to the a newer NVIDIA supports the directX10.
    It is a future and all new games will this DrectX10!
