Equium A100 - 147 PSAABE - Win7 PVAT error

Hello all, I hope someone can help.

My A100-147 was supplied with XP as an operating system. I just did a clean install of Win7 Professional 32-bit. All necessary system drivers have been installed the disk during installation, with the exception of the Flash Media, as there was no Win 7 drivers listed for her [here: http://www.toshiba.co.uk/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=UK&mode=allMachi nes & action = search & teddProduct = 695 & selShortMod = 476]

I installed a 32-bit driver Vista 2.0.0.6 - IEC (FA-20070709130655) which works very well.

Everything is good so far but my problem is I cannot adjust the brightness of the screen and the function keys (Fn + F6, etc.) do not work. I thought the Toshiba Value Added Package 1.2.40 would fix this but I get an error when I try to install it. Installation error PVAT. 0x8146045B I also tried the plu PVAT 1.2.28 but she also creates errors.

So any advice on how to get my Fn buttons work would be much appreciated.

Thank you

It's always a bit difficult to get an old books with new BONE. I checked the Toshiba download page and many drivers, tools and utilities are available for your laptop model.

According to my experience of software (such as 0x8146045B) errors is not easy to fix, and I got it long with Toshiba power saver. Only way to get rid of it was to reinstall OS and reinstall all the stuff.
What you can try is to clean the registry entries, but I know if this will help.

There is one very important thing: drivers, tools and utilities must be installed in order for the proper installation. Unfortunately there is no such list but try to install more to my list of things I could ve used to install Win7 32 bit on my Satellite A300:

-Win7
-chipset driver
-Storage Manager
-display driver
-driver sound
-modem driver
-utility supervisor
-infrared
-patches
-configfree
-VAP
Hardware - Toshiba
Control - HDMI
-WLAN driver
-Toshiba assist
-Card reader
Driver Webcam-
Driver - Synaptics

If you have any other questions you are welcome.

  • Equium A100-147: I get an error during the recovery procedure

    Hi again,

    I had trouble with my equium a100-147.
    I tried a restore, but the disc is scratched so I phoned in ESL and it snet me a new recovery image.

    I tried the new recovery disk and am now errors when I boot the disk.

    error is

    "internal error crc file: \WINDOWS\$NtUninstallKB895200$\msdtctm.dl.

    any suggestions are welcome. get really annoyed with my machine as my warranty expired only one month

    Thank you

    Hmm... I studied a bit and it looks a bit like a malfunction of the partition.
    It would be desirable to boot from the original CD of Microsoft XP and to start the repair console.
    Then you could try these various commands which help to repair the boot manager, repair errors, locate bad sectors and recover readable information.

    -fixboot
    -fixmbr
    -bootcfg /rebuild
    -chkdsk /r

    If this does not help, you should erase the entire partitions and must format the HARD drive in NTFS file system. Then access the BIOS and set it to the default value.
    Once this procedure tries to start again on the new recovery CD!

    Good bye

  • Equium A100-147 replacement hard drive

    Hello

    I got a toshiba Equium A100-147 by a friend. The only problem is that it comes without a hard drive, because he still destroyed his old hdd to protect its personal and professional data.

    I saw in a local computer store a disk sata hard very good price for only? Â £38 it's a 160 GB w Digital Scorpio 5400 RPM 8 MB Cache S - ATA HDD laptop someone knows if it will work or this laptop does it work-specific hdd?

    Looking forward to any help you guys can give

    Hello

    Of course you need a compatible HARD drive.
    There are two different standards of HARD drive. SATA and IDE

    You need the HARD drive with the SATA interface. I think the original HARD drive was 100 GB.
    So a 120 GB and maybe a 160 GB SATA HDD should also be compatible.

    As far as I know the HARD drive slot was placed at the bottom of the unit and a screw secures the plastic cover.
    It of really not difficult to replace the HARD drive and I think that the details could be found in the user manual.

  • Cannot install driver Equium A100 - 147 LAN (ethernet)

    Hello

    I have the same problem, as in the http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=17316 section.

    I downloaded and installed all the drivers that I needed on my Equium A100-147, but not working no driver Lan (ethernet).

    I have windows XP, home edition, SP2.

    I tried both types of drivers Toshiba download (and a few others also), that should work... but unfortunately, it does not.

    I'd be happy if someone could help me. Thanks anyway.

    Hello Adam

    Thanks for the feed back, but I must say that I'm really confused why you have problem to facilities with driver on Toshiba download page. In any case, the problem is solved and that's the most important thing! ;)

  • Equium A100-147 - sound devices do not work correctly

    I've owned an Equium A100-147 for only less than a year.

    The problem I have is that if I put pressure on the area around the left speaker (where is the VGA port) there is a substantial "cracking" / rattling noise. The right does not exhibit this problem.

    The other day with a same case design (model Satellite A), I got another PC Toshiba laptop and it seems to have a slightly stiffer construction quality.

    Is it worth getting it checked under warranty while I still have the warranty? Or am I just too picky?

    See you soon

    Interestingly enough, why you support on the area around the speakers. As far as I know the speakers are placed between the keyboard and display and keyboard there is no pressure to the speakers. Very strange method to test the functionality of the laptop! ;)

    In any case, you should contact the service because the speaker should be placed and fixed correctly.

  • Impossible to update the setting of DVD region on Equium A100-147

    Hi I have an Equium A100-147 with a CARPET * a DVD-RAM UJ - 841S and I am returning the dvd region 2 region.
    Tried to go through Win DVD, media player and the Manager of devices but not successful on all occasions.

    I tells me that I must use a region 2 media (do) and the administrator (this is me - I'm the only user).

    Am not longer under warranty but have whateverhappens coverage of curries.

  • Equium A100-147 doesn't boot up - no display on screen

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Equium A100-147. When I turn, I see as the light of the maximum but there is no display on the screen.
    I read on a previous thread on a similar model that this has been fixed by resetting the computer.
    I understand there is a possibility that there is a problem with the motherboard, but I remain optimistic that a manual-reset would work.

    Is someone can you please tell me how this can be done?

    You can try this procedure simple and short;

    -Remove the battery from the laptop
    -disconnect 3rd external devices and adapter
    -leave the laptop for about 20-30 min
    -then reconnect battery and AC adapter

    If the portable fuel after this procedure, then your have a serious hardware problem and only the ASP can help you.

    I don t want to make a statement on the possible faults, because it of always hard to say what's wrong exactly, but it looks a bit like a motherboard problem.

  • Question on the disk anti-shock HARD on Equium A100-147

    Don't Equium A100 - 147 HDD have the same shock of the A120 series?

    Hello

    Sorry, but the Equium A120 is unclear to me. Where did you find information on this laptop and HARD shock anti-mecanisme disc?

    I found some info on the new feature called Toshiba EasyGuard.
    Protection of hard drive (HDD) a feature of Toshiba EasyGuard is designed not to damage the hard drive and disks of data caused by the shock, fall or vibration.
    This feature can be found in the device under the section manager system devices as driver of Toshiba HDD protection shock sensor.
    But unfortunately, I don t find anything similar on the Equium A100

  • USB 2.0 Bluetooth DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED - Equium A100-147

    Hi all!!!

    I have posted b4 about my problems of BT, but still no further forward.

    I have a 2.0 usb toggle universl BT, my last worked well until it broke.

    Since I had xp pro installed, but my USB does not recognize my rocking do not even have a pop up? any ideas.

    When I plug it 3 fast Dong

    Unplug and made 2 Dong

    I tried to install the drivers usb, but nothing.

    do my head now... Please someone help me resolve this issue!

    As far I know Equium A100-147 doesn t support the internal BT module and so if it was not equipped with the BT Toshiba stack.

    If you use an external 3rd party module BT, then you should check if there are drivers designed specially for this external BT dongle.

    Also, check if the BT dongle would be recognized in the Device Manager.
    If there is no dongle BT listed in the list of devices, then remove all controllers and hubs of UBS in the list and restart the device.
    After rebooting again Win XP should initialize the USB ports again and then you try to plug the dongle BT again.

    Good luck
