• Cannot get Equium A200 to recognize external microphones, or detect sounds

  Hello
  I have a problem with my Equium A200-1V0 (running Vista Home Premium).

  It is equipped with a microphone input, but I can't do recognize external microphones, or detect sounds.
  He won't let me launch the Windows Sound Recorder software, because it signals that * no. recording device * is installed.
  I've seen this mentioned on other external forums, but have yet to find an answer.

  If the sound card is equipped to record / captures sound via the external microphone jack?
  If so, what should I do to activate it?
  Otherwise, why have a microphone?

• Initialize the trouble on Equium A200-1VO

  I have an Equium A200 - 1VO, starts in Windows Vista and works ok until I connect the power cable and then it freezes and won't do anything. Also if it's on the socket to switch on it will do nothing, nothing comes on the screen.

  Can anyone help please?

  Hmm, sounds like a hardware problem.

  Maybe it's just a problem of AC adapter that provides an abnormal power to the laptop. Then you should try to plug another compatible adapter for the laptop just to check if this is the case otherwise, it could be a motherboard related problem and it would be the worst case buddy in this case, you have to replace the motherboard and it is a very costly affair

• Equium A200 - problems with the CD/DVD-RW and Realtek HD driver

  I'm having some trouble with my Equium A200-1VO.

  First of all, I can't get the CD/DVD-RW to write any dics. The Player opens also from time to time.

  Secondl, I just downloaded and installed the latest driver Realtek HD audio, under the guidance of Toshiba, to see that when I plug my headphones the sound always comes out of my laptop speakers.

  Any help or thoughts?

  Thank you

  Now, he can be really problematic. If you use your own installation of the OS, no one can say with certainty what can be the problem. Each laptop manufacturer, including Toshiba, offer recovery image installation and in using the factory settings, everything should work well. These recovery images are tested and they offer all the hardware and software features.

  Maybe you should install Vista using recovery media supplied and check if all these problems are happening again. If yes then we can talk about the unusual and serious issues.

  This error is not known to me and it seems that there is not a lot of people with questions of the error
  First of all, you should try to remove you sound driver should and then reinstall again.

  On the Toshiba page, you will find the compatible driver.

  The question remains then you should recover the laptop with the Toshiba Recovery CD. Usually, if your notebook malfunction s material doesn t then a recovery CD should solve this problem. Otherwise, the hardware may be faulty and the laptop everything should be checked.

• 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+

  * 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.

• Equium A200-1VO isue - white screen start new

  I got a new laptop Equium A200-1VO Friday as a Christmas present very very end and last night (Monday), I played football coach, play with ITunes and deleting files on an old mp3 player. Everything was fine when all of a sudden there was this click / the sound muffled and the screen went black.

  The laptop is connected to the time and so connected them to clear a/c was, so was the power and charge light, but he just stayed empty.

  I then unplugged the charger and it appeared with the orange light mean low battery. I then removed the computer game disc thinking that it is possible that and turned off the phone manually. Now if I just push the power button it stands theres a click, just about where is the hard drive and it stops, if I hold it in theres a click, but it stays on, all the time the screen remains blank.

  I then turned off and it rebooted I was wondering if it was just low on battery and still nothing.
  I left the place cell phone off during the night but in the morning, the problems are still there. I even blocked the "product recovery" disk, but still no sign of life.

  I'll try to plug this moniter screen and see if this is the problem then he hopes to be able to tell you soon. Oh, one thing I can think is that I used it on my bed, is there a way it could have overheated? If Yes, then would not be leaving off all night helped / solved this problem?

  Thanks in advance!

  Have you tried to remove the battery and disconnect the AC for a while?
  I would recommend doing this!

  Remove the battery and the power adapter for about 20-30 min. After this short period of time to connect all the parts again and try to start Notepad.

  Maybe it helps

• Equium A200 - 1V0 Bios broke

  Hey,.

  I just tried to update my Bios crashed my laptop for about 10 minutes, but then has taken over and restarted.
  My laptop will not now start in Windows and a few crashes on the loading screen.

  I tried to repair windows and reinstall windows, but yet it still crashes, so I figure that the Bios has erupted.

  How can I fix it, please help...

  I tried to follow the way to fix the bios using a page of CD on the toshiba site, but as usual there is nothing for an Equium A200.

  Thank you

  Hey Buddy

  This really bad sound module ROM BIOS has been flashed properly and so the laptop can not start correctly.
  You will not be able to solve this problem because you don t have a special version of the BIOS that would be required to Flash the Rom again.

  Contact the local ASP for a fix is your last option.

  Good luck

• Equium A200: Mat * a UJ - 850 s read DVD but not CD

  Post on behalf of a friend who has problems with its Equium A200. He has a stack * a reader of DVD UJ - 850 s, this is the rub.
  The DVD player will read and play the media of origin such as the movies but will not read any CD, whether they are originals or CD - R.

  She telephoned support who asked her if she installed iTunes and told him to follow a few steps to delete upper and lower filters in the registry.

  She has done (although not had lower filters), the problem remains. It looks like a hardware failure for me, thoughts?

  See you soon

  > It sounds like a hardware failure for me, thoughts?
  Yes, it might be possible that hardware is defective.
  I mean that looks like the laser lens was stressed and may not calibrate correctly in the right direction in order to be able to read the CD.

  But before that you would try to replace the driver I recommend to test one thing;
  You can try to boot from the recovery disc and may reinstall the whole OS.
  Notes; everything is erased from the HARD drive using the recovery disk. So back up the data first.

  After restoring, you will get a notebook with the settings and then you could try to read from a CD disc.
  If this is not possible there is a hardware problem

  Hello people,

  Recently joined and impossible to find answers to my question about the right of cable should I use for me to be able to transfer some pictures (movies) from my laptop to my tv.

  My laptop is model TOSHIBA EQUIUM A200-15i and has only a port external moniter of 15 pins.
  My tv has a PC ready to and has a 15-pin and HDMI ready as well.
  I have no idea at all how to work with the cable, I read somewhere that some cables is simply play with the video but no sound.

  Can anyone of you can help me this type of cables should I expect and works with my laptop and TV.

  Any advice is welcome... Thank you

  Hello

  Seems that the laptop would support the s-video output port.
  So you can use an s-video cable (s-video-to-SCART or s-video-to-s-Video) in order to connect the laptop to TV
  Of course this depends on your TV this cable you will use, but AFAIK most TVs support a cable SCART so

• Noisy hard drive Equium A200-1V0

  I recently bought an Equium A200-1V0 with Vista installed.
  I got it two weeks, I have barely any software, but HDD is impregnated with a really annoying crackling sound.

  It is not only during startup, even for the simplest of programs, such as word, brands of hard drive of my laptop this incessant crackling noise.
  I thought that the laptops are supposed to be quiet.

  Is - this usual?

  > I thought laptops are supposed to be quiet.
  ;) not. You can't say that all laptops must be altogether. As you know there are a lot of series of laptops that is designed for the different areas of work.
  For example: professional laptops are quite little, and don t support the high performance devices like for example graphics card to play games, but a X 200 was desigened to the game and it is much noisier because of high performance devices.

  However, to the noisy HARD drive
  I have 2 different laptops. Drives my M40 of Sam makes strange noises, but it works very well, so in my case I would exclude a hardware problem

  But who knows, maybe you HDD starts I have malfunction would recommend shows the additional HARD drive activities and to safeguard important data.

  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
