  The point is that you have installed windows OS in the language of the Netherlands, but the laptop uses the UK keyboard layout.
  Therefore, change to a different language keyboard layout if the keyboard is set to the language of the Netherlands, then you should change this to English UK!

  Go to control panel-> regional and Language Options-> languages-> text services and input languages tab, click details

  There you can add or change the language

  Yes. It is possible to upgrade your Equium up to 2 GB, but you must use compatible memory modules.
  Module 1 GB compatible for your old Equium has PA3411U-1M1G part number.

• Equium A100-549 - reading disc error occurred press ctrl + alt + delete to restart

  Hello

  I have a laptop Toshiba Equium a100-549, about 3 years, Windows XP Home Edition.
  Everything worked very well so far. When starting my computer, I received the message:

  A disk read error occurred press ctrl + alt + delete
  I don't want to lose my data

  Please please I need some advice what to do

  Kind regards
  AGM

  > I don't want to lose my data

  Well. Everyone knows that a HARD disk problem can happen and all of a sudden you may lose all the data stored on the HARD drive.
  That is why it s always recommended to backup the data on additional HDD, DVD, etc.

  I'm not sure if this will help but try this:
  Try to boot from the disk Win XP (NOT the Toshiba Recovery disk) and press r. means repair and should start the repair console.
  The similar DOS window should open and there, you can use a command:
  CHKDSK drive/p/r

  The chkdsk command checks the specified drive and repairs or recovers the drive if the drive requires it.

  More details can be found here:

  If that does not help, then you need to reinstall new OS.

• Equium A100-549: DVD & CD playback is slow and jerky

  Hello!
  DVD and CD playback is jerky and slow (sound and image). This problem occurred out of the blue! One day was playing very well and the next, when we tried to play a DVD is a different problem. I put the other DVD that plays very well the night before, but without success - it wasn't the DVD in particular. I tried the audio CD I played before and to my disappointment the same problem. I ripped a CD on my laptop and it played very well - it is not the sound card. I used a lens cleaner, but it did not work.

  I run Toshiba Diagnostics, no problem. I even scanned the HD and defrag, nothing - so I doubt there is a problem with Windows. Problem with two media players, windows one and the Nero one - is not due to lack of players. I drop the phone or hit him or spilled something on it. And this problem really happened from one day to the other. I had all the windows and driver updates two weeks before the problem occurred, by paying in the meantime several DVDs and a few CDs with no problems. What should I do?

  Fortunately, the laptop is still under warranty, but I would prefer if there is a way to fix at home, because services of take time...

  Thank you for your help.

  Hello

  I hope that your device to factory settings and not your own installation of the OS. You didn't write what CDs and DVDs you use, but I hope that use you the original one.

  Before you play DVD movie try at first to end all unnecessary process and stop the antivirus application if you have one. RedHawk is just, but I'm sure that DMA setting is standard by factory settings.

  Press F1 to load the default values, F2 for Setup

  F1 just a loop to the same message, F2 brings up the configuration screens, but I see nothing here to fix this problem.

  There have not been any addition of material to the machine because it is out of the box from Toshiba.

  Any suggestions to get around this problem?

  I put t know what you did with your Equium and I advise you to install the OS by using recovery media delivered. After having this device will be updated again plant and equipment will be configured correctly.

  If the problem persists I would recommend you contact the after-sales Service of Toshiba partner and let check the device.

• Equium A100-549 4 GB memory?

  Hello

  I have a Tosh Equium A100 - 549 (PSAA4E). It's getting a little old now, but still a good machine, I've read various reports on what is max memory to this laptop.

  I bought 2 x 2 GB 200 pin SODIMM PC2-5300 (667), but when I install the laptop does not start. I get the power and keyboard LED and the fan but not the screen output.

  If I mix a former modules with a new 2 GB 512 MB (in order any Bank) then the laptop works, even if I get only 1.87 GB display in XP Home Ed.

  Took me to update to the latest version of the BIOS but still the same thing.

  Is it more a case of 2 GB not supported or is it the speed? I need 2 x 2 GB PC2 - 4200?

  Thanx

  Hi mate,

  the machine does not support the def. more than 2 GB of RAM. You must use no to 667 and 533 Mhz modules.

  That's all ;)

• 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:

  Step 4. Finally, select to restart the system and press [finish] to complete the installation.

  The system will reload the drivers and make some adjustments in the INF file if necessary.

  Deep delete the driver follow this: _

• Equium A100-338 - battery power problem

  Hello

  My daughter has an Equium A100-338 bought England under Vista Home Premium 15 months ago. He has recently developed a problem with the battery life, which in theory should mean the replacement of the battery, but I'm not so sure!

  The battery quickly descends to say 80% 6 minutes remaining, about 20 minutes after a full charge. Then put it in charge that it retrieves to 100% in about 20 minutes. The notebook gets rather warm below, but I think it's probably normal, that old equium of my other daughter gets warm anyway.

  Someone has encountered this problem, or is it just that he needs a new battery? I would have thought that it would have lasted longer, the other Equium battery is still going strong and is one year more!

  Thank you
  Dave

  Hello

  Hmm I think that you battery is not dead and can be used much longer than you think.

  I see that you have Vista on your laptop. This OS needs more resources for laptop as the Win XP for example. This would mean that laptops preinstalled Vista would be shorter on the battery as the laptop with Windows XP.

  Finally, and especially the battery working time is highly dependent on the use of the laptop.
  If you play games or watch movies DVD battery discharges faster.

  Hello

  Have you tried to connect the laptop to the router using the LAN cable?
  If Yes, have you tried the router configuration?
  I mean, it could also be a router problem

  In this case, I recommend resetting the router settings and check it again!
  Also check if Vista is already up to date!

• Wireless network does not work properly on Equium A100-549

  I've tried so far with/without WPA PSK TKIP, WEP, OPEN, dynamic and static address, ipconfig/all configure TCP/IP manually and automatically updated drivers, all windows updates. I also tried with or without mac filtering.

  I install a good USB dongle known and tried all the foregoing the same I can instantly find the network cut and paste the password or type it in, it find instantly and the other around the street, but could not connect wireless connections, the icon in the task bar permanently a red x.

  If I can connect to the network I can put everything up. I have an XP, Office XP laptop and Vista DESKTOP base everything on laptop wireless WIFI on board, to an office on a dongle and the other with a PCI x 16 WI - FI card. on the laptop problem when you right-click the icon under display all connections, the status option is also low lit (can not select).
  It's like the driver is bad even if tosiba website says it's the right one to download when you fill out the form online, when you are looking there Web site for pilots.
  It's really annoying.

  Hello

  Satellite A100-549 PSAA4E was delivered with Atheros 11 b/g wireless network card.
  In this case the Atheros WLan client utility should be preinstalled on this OS.
  I advise to use this tool to configure WLan settings.

  In addition the wireless network card has been configured and set WLan channel 11. Please check if your router has been also on channel 11!

  I assume you are using the image of preinstalled Toshiba.
  This image contains the right WLan driver and usually the new installation is not necessary but if you are lloking for the new WLan driver I would recommend take a look here on this Toshiba WLan Center Portal:
