• Equium A200-1V0 does not start after recovery

  Hi all

  I have Toshiba Equium A200-1V0.

  I wanted to restore Vista back to the factory settings and used the recovery disc - everything seems to go well, selected 'no' on the disc Add on to the end, as I don't seem to have one. When you restart the laptop, it goes beyond the post screen, then darkness... nothing happens at all.

  Now, I thought that maybe there was a hardware problem, so I tested it using a copy of Windows XP I - installs fine, no problem. I noticed that the recovery partition "Winre" was 1.5 GB in size and 1.37 GB free. I guess that's complete, it contains a file called "boot.sdi" and the folder called 'sources' in the 'sources' folder there is a file called "boot.wim" and that's, I don't know if this is right.

  Whatever it is, I can't get the thing to work with the recovery disk (Vista Home Premium) and there seems to be no hardware issues that XP is fine.

  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  Danny

  Try to remove all partitions on the HARD disk and re-run recovery.

  You can use FDISK on a BACK (www.bootdisk.com) boot disk to delete partitions non-dos.

  I just bought an Equium A200-1V0 and installed the sacred gold game but when I try to play the game it comes up with the error message that there is no disc in the disc drive.

  It seems that Windows XP Home edition does not work perfectly on the new laptops designed Vista. Before you live your laptop try to change profile settings (extended battery) power and test the parameters of this profile.

• Equium A200-1VO does not start and makes weird noises

  My Toshiba Equium A200-1VO don't load on Windows entirely, which means I can't use it. When you turn everything goes well until the Welcome screen in Windows Vista. From there, it starts to get weird creaking and it beeps from time to time. It won't start here and these sounds do not stop.

  Help please

  Hello

  Is it possible to know where the noise comes from?
  As suggested by above user, it could be a HARD disk, but in this case, it would mean that HARD drive failures and he could die in the next time

  You said it s begin properly until appears the window Vista would be
  So maybe it s only a problem of software but I m still don t know what part of the software would create such sound however, I think that if would not be bad to reinstall the operating system in order to check the notebook with factory settings.

  If this strange question would persist or if you would not be able to reinstall the operating system using the recovery disc then a hardware problem could cause this strange things and I think it means that you will need to contact the ASP in your country for a material test

• Equium A200-1VO does not run stable after BIOS update

  Hello

  I have a PSAF5E-002005KS A200-1V0. I updated my bios to help what he '20080212105826.zip' file and it doesn't seem to be as stable as it was before.
  It get error messages different copy, msdos errors etc.

  Can I return the bios to the original one and where can I find this please?

  Brian

  Unfortunately, the first version of the BIOS can be installed by a technician of the ASP.

  But I wonder about the error messages that appear after the update of the BIOS.
  Have you tried to reinstall the OS from the recovery CD? You must test the laptop with the factory settings!

  By the way; access the BIOS and set the defaults. And don t forget to save changes ;)

• My satellite A200-1AG does not illuminate

  Hello:

  help please.

  Hello

  > My A200 power on. When I plug in the AC/DC adapter then flahs blue led once and that's it

  So, if I understand it is not booting with the plugged AC adapter and battery, too. In my view, it may be electrical circuit controller malfunction on the card mother, South of the bridge. It would be best to check with the other AC adapter.

• Equium L40-14i does not illuminate!

  When I turn on my laptop the power button turns green and the disk drive can be heard for a few seconds, after that nothing happens. The screen remains black. I don't know how it happened.

  Hello

  Sounds like serious hardware problem.
  You are able to access the BIOS? Usually, you can access the BIOS by pressing F2 at the beginning.
  So if this is not possible, then it means that your card mother s cell phones likely to be affected. But also the defective RAM module might be possible

  In my opinion, the technician of the ASP must check these pieces of hardware.

  Have you tried the reinstallation of RAM, Exchange off the HARD drive (the data is still available on the two HARD drives), battery, battery, ca, AC out etc, waited 12 hours, still nothing.

  To be honest, this particular PC has been no end of problems for me, and now fail (with similar symptoms at the beginning of the year) would like some advice what to do?

  Hello

  This really weird sound like a serious problem of hardware (motherboard)?
  If the motherboard has already been changed on this laptop, then you should definitely connect with ASP again in order to get more information how to proceed

  As far as I know that the replaced part should be covered under warranty, for a few months, but I m not really sure, that's why you should ask ASP for details.

• Re: Equium A200-1V0: Vista won't load - system restore does not

  Toshiba Equium A200-1V0, purchased January ' 08
  Vista Home Premium

  Upgrade office 2007, rebooted fine, saved all the files. I went looking for vista security updates & Office including. Net3.0 - pc crashed during installation. F8 to repair pc & system restore to front office installed. everything seemed well & rebooted ok so I have backed up all critical files.

  reinstalled office 2007 & vista hanging on the required reboot.

  Try to load in safe mode & vista hangs at crcdisk.sys. It was suggested to remove all pcmcia & 1394 drivers, but the switches/s/p do not work in command prompt so I can't be sure enough to find them all to delete or rename.

  F8 for pc repair & while the menu appears, it is very slow to get there.
  Startup Repair detects no problem, System Restore won't work, so assuming that restore lost points (there were a few elders before the one I went to). Command prompt will run.

  Toshiba has provided a system restore disc, but crashes after language selection. It was suggested that the disk was duff, so I downloaded the ISO to a disk of vista without the extras toshiba restore & that said it is loading & then sits right on the blue/green screen of vista.

  I have a basic family official OEM of Vista editing copy for a new machine, I do build, so tried to boot from a full installation of windows (without formatitng) - this also hangs on the blue/green screen of vista. This is my first to face with a laptop without a correct installation disc, so if I format & reinstall the will I lose the recovery partition?

  Any other ideas of what to try?

  Hello

  I think that it s nothing wrong with the software, but with the hardware
  If the reinstallation of Vista is not possible then this could be caused by a hardware problem
  I can only suggest on the malfunction of HARD, RAM disk. Everything is possible

  If I you would be then I would format the whole HARD drive I would be to delete all partitions and would try to reinstall the operating system from the recovery CD

  If it is not possible, then you should ask the ASP in your country for a control from laptop s!

  Good luck

• Equium A100 does not illuminate

  My A100 does not illuminate. Anyone have similar problems?

  I had a little trouble with the plug of the AC adapter into jack but have managed to get charged. When I put now the head in the light orange is on, but nothing else and it will not start.

  I would be grateful for any help.

  Hello!

  What problems have you had with the AC/DC adapter?

  In this case, you can do many things to get this working again, but you can try to remove the adaptor AC/DC and battery. Wait an hour and reconnect both devices and try it.

  If it doesn t work I think you will need help of an ASP. :(
  On the Toshiba site, you can search for the closest: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com => Support downloads & => find an authorized service provider

• Equium A200-1V0 using XP - recent conversion issues.

  * Hi, *.

  * I recently inherited my laptop the girls, he had vista installed on it. I'm not a big fan so decided to install xp. I found a great guide on the forum, see below, (the topic is now locked) *.

  The original guide:

  + How to install XP Home on the following Vista laptop. 05/01/08 +.
  + PSAF5E + Toshiba Equium A200-1V0

  + Introduction
  + Here are the measures taken by us to remove our Toshiba laptop Vista and replace it with XP Home. There may be inconsistencies in our methods and we cannot have all the correct drivers installed, but everything seems to work OK for us. +
  + Our laptop now runs much faster, opens and closes more quickly and is more stable. +

  + This isn't a 5 minute operation. It should not be attempted by anyone with only a knowledge of passage of computers because it is very easy to screw things. The shop you bought your PC against them will load a lot to fix things and they will probably insist reinstall Vista! +
  + Be prepared that this would also probably negate your warranty. +

  + Luckily, I have a 2nd PC under XP, which allows me to access the web. This is very useful because it means that when your Vista machine is "broken" you can always find help and download the driver files. I also used my 2nd PC to create the XP installation updated the CD discussed later. +
  + You must have access to the web via a PC or another to get the necessary drivers. +

  + Method +.
  + First, even if you have Vista on your laptop, download and run a program of interrogation as "Belarc advisor" that lists all the drivers and software installed on your laptop. Print it out for future reference. It will be useful later when searching on the web for all drivers that may require updating. +
  + Now, make sure that you noted on all the necessary settings for your Internet connection. +
  + Also, back up the files that you may have placed on the hard drive you will lose the lot, including emails and the address books and web bookmarks etc. +

  + Unfortunately, the Toshiba disk that comes with this laptop does not appear to have all the required drivers with it. Instead, I think it relies on Vista keeping copy on your hard drive. It's not very bright that when the disk fails, you have lost everything! +
  + This means to go on the web and the search of all the required drivers run the XP successfully. +
  + Some we have found, for example the wireless network adapter, however this was not a problem because once we had installed XP and connected to the Internet through an Ethernet cable to our router, we were able to run 'Update Driver' for each missing item. +
  + Go to "Device Manager" via "Control Panel" then "System" and then "hardware". Then look for any yellow question mark for all the problems. Right-click and run 'Update Driver' for the Hardware Update Wizard and allow the PC to search the web "this time only. +
  + The ones we made in this way were: wireless adapter, Audio adapter. +

  + Unfortunately an original CD of XP SP2 does not contain the required drivers for this laptop. Therefore, when you start the CD it will be, after a few minutes of installation of files, say you have a hardware problem, there is no hard drive. +
  + To remedy this, you will need to download the right drivers Intel ICH8M SATA AHCI Controller. I could not find on the website of Intel, but on the contrary searched on Google for him. and he got to: http://www.alphadownloads.com/downloads/download-hp-intel-sata-ahci-controller-driver-ver--d-3064.html+

  + The other necessary drivers that we found on the web were: +.

  + Now place your drive to install XP in your CD drive, if it autoruns, leave him. +

  + On the screen "Task Selection", select "Drivers" and "Bootable ISO". Press "next". +
  + Select "Insert" and then "Folder pilot several" and now go and find your downloaded files of the SATA driver. Now, select 'All' and ' OK. The program will list the available SATA drivers. Select only the two that mention "ICH8M. Now press "next". The display will show the selected drivers. Press 'Next' and then 'Yes' to the prompt and then on "next" when done.
  + You are presented with the "Bootable ISO" screen. +
  + Put it a new inflammable CD in your CD burner, wait for it to be recognized and out any window that might appear to allow you to install files.

  + Now, click on the "Burn" button Now follow the remaining instructions to complete. +
  + You have now created an XP installation disc that contains your SATA drivers. +
  + - As you can tell, it of sound altogether, but avoids having to buy a USB floppy drive and it provides a neat solution. +

  + Hasta La Vista! +
  + Now you are ready to start the cleaning process, if you are brave enough to continue... +.

  + First, re-boot your laptop and the all start-up press F12 to change the boot order so that the CD-ROM/DVD-ROM is first. You can also use F2 and then change the Boot order from there. +

  + Now, insert your new XP installation disc in the DVD/CD drive and re-boot the PC, select boot from CD when you are prompted. +

  + The XP CD will now start copying the files and possibly display an options screen.
  + Select this option to install Windows. +
  + And then remove the hard drive C: partition (with Vista on) +.
  + Delete the partition used by Vista also F. +.
  + You will have to follow a lot of warning messages to delete the partitions. +
  + Now follow the instructions to create an NTFS partition on the C drive. +.
  + Now install XP by following the instructions. +

  + Don't worry that the graphics are a bit large as once Windows has finished installing, you can run the graphics driver you copied on the the XP CD to correct this. +

  + Run three driver files: +.
  + win2k_xp14311.exe Intel graphics driver.
  + INFINST_AUTOL.exe Intel chipset software installation utility ' +.

  + Now go to "Device Manager" by "Control Panel" then "System" and then "hardware". Then look for any yellow question mark for all the problems. Right-click and run 'Update Driver' for the Hardware Update Wizard and allow the PC to search the web "this time only. +

  + If all goes well, everything should work OK now. +

  + Now go and have a drink to celebrate! +

  * After completing the installation, I found that I had no work wlan driver on my laptop. They are here (RTL8187B_WLAN_Adaptor), but with a big yellow question mark. I tried reinstalling them but it made no difference. I don't know why they don't will be will not installed properly.*

  * All went well and seem to work and all the familiar screens were there. I started using it and wanted to transfer some info from the laptop to my office. I copied the files on a disc using Ashampoo Burning Studio 7 and it seems to work, he went through the whole process without a hitch. When he had finished I checked the drive and it was empty he had no files on it at all. I tried several types/brands but the results (or lack of) is the same. The drive reads the discs will not drive write. Any ideas? *

  Thanks for reading this and I would appreciate any help/advice you may have.

  See you soon,.

  Hello

  This means that everything is working properly without WLAN connection and burning the discs?

  Well, are you sure that your laptop is equipped with RTL8187B WLAN card? Therefore, you can check the vendor and device ID in Device Manager.
  But for all the portable Toshiba, you can download the driver WLAN here:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/

  In addition, it would be interesting to know which drive you exactly used for the engraving process. I only use high-quality Verbatim and TDK media. I don t use Ashampoo or Nero, I use CD Burner XP because it the freeware tool and I can do anything I want with this program.

  Check it!
