• Equium A300D his problem on Vista

  Hi, I'm currently having problems with my Toshiba laptop.

  I am running Windows Vista (32 bit). The problem occurred first after a windows update, I can't remember what exactly I did but after searching the net for solutions I quickly found many discussions on the same issue. I followed the instructions for the "quick fixs' that people said all over the forums. After many attempts with play with regedit and these programs and hours of searching on the net, I decided to try here. After messing around with sound dependencies I get now a problem of differernt.

  When I move my mouse pointer on the icon of the sound in the bottem right screen, it says:

  Volume: 0
  Speakers
  Conexant high definition Smartaudio221

  When I try more the volume by clicking on the icon and clicking noise I get 3 tabs:
  Reading, record & sons.

  Under playback, I get 3 sound devices:
  Speakers (Conexant High Definition Smartaudio 221) - work * a green tick next to her
  Interface SPDIF (Conexant high definition Smartaudio 221)-work
  Digital output device (Audio device high definition)-work

  I tried to uninstall the drivers and reinstall them from [here: http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/vista_drivers.jsp?macId=&mode=allMachines&userOS=& action = search & SelCategorie = 2 & selFamily = 382 & s selSerie = 173 & selProduct = 798 & selShortMod = 727 & selOS = 26 & selT ype = 42 & country = 17 & language = 13 & useDate = 1 & dayupload = 6 & monthupload = 12 & yearupload = 1999 & search =]

  I don't know I installed it properly but I still have the same problem: when I go in my speakers properties and click the levels tab, nothing comes, it's just white.

  Any ideas would be helpful

  Concerning

  Hello

  I believe that the Windows updates may be responsible for this sound material. Because of this I have disabled the automatic updates. Before you install updates I use option that updates available View to see what is stated exactly. I removed all the checkmarks in front of optional updates. Maybe you should do the same and avoid installing some updates that may have a negative influence on good work sound, mouse, or other hardware components.

  If you are sure this is because of the update from Microsoft the first step, you can try is to roll back the OS to an earlier time until you have installed all updates.
  Did you use the TEST option for the speakers? Any result?
  You hear Windows sounds?

  This is a really silly situation. At the end you must install new OS by using recovery image. :(

• Re: Equium A300D - 13 X - boot problem

  Hello

  I can't initialize problem. Powers of phone on ok, with a few flashes of HARD drive as it tries to start. But no sounds other than the kick, fans have tried all the usual things like FN/F8 to enter safe mode, also cold start battery and network opens. Power button down for an all black screen minute etc etc, but still no screen or emits a signal. I suspect a power supply problem and have tried with different loader but no effect. Laptop is a 4 year old Toshiba Equium A300D - 13 X everything worked fine but I recently renewed keyboard, screen bezel, Mo media Ribbon, power/Ribbon button, Mo.

  I thought I might have left some cable detached so all reopened and checked, but everything is correctly fixed I think.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks Bob.

  Hello Bob

  It is not easy to be objective with this problem. On one side you have disassembled your laptop on your own and we don t know if everything was done correctly. I m also not technician and each laptop disassembly has been a success.

  I put t really know what to say. Try to talk with someone who can help you with this and check if everything is OK. Small error as causing electrical circuit can damage the electrical components of the motherboard. Try to check the display cable connection.

  Have you tried to connect the laptop to the TV and check if all come to this?

• Overheating problem on my Equium A60

  Hi all

  I've posted a few more heating problems, a few months ago I've followed the instructions and cleaned the areas necessary, but the problem persists
  I ve downloaded a program that monitors the temperature of the different aspects of your machine, as HHD and CPU
  He claims that my CPU critical temp rises to 105, but it never reaches above 86 before his stop

  Anyone know if this problem is caused by the synchronization of heat or something like that being broken and no one knows everything good free programs that help manage your CPU and keep it cool?

  Has anyone else had this problem or something similar?

  Thanks in advance

  Jake

  Hello

  All portable Toshiba have preinstalled power management software.
  This application run by the processor and the use of cooling.
  Usually, this app works perfectly and controls many options like the processing speed of the CPU, cooling method, turn off settings, etc.

  If you laptop will stop because of overheating problems, so there must be something wrong with the cooling module. I guess that it doesn t work full implementation.
  I can't give you an exactly the answer why it is not working properly, but usually dust and dirt inside the laptop is responsible for the failure. But if this problem persists after cleaning if the cooling module has a failure.

  In this case, the only way to solve this problem is to contact the service of Toshiba. It can check the module.

• Equium A300D - 13 X - overheating

  The CPU temperature gets over 80 ° C and sometimes stop.
  I already have cleanned the fan and works very well.

  Does anyone have a solution?

  Hello

  How do you use the laptop?
  Are the gates to free cooling and is there enough space around the laptop to properly cool the traffic?

  Which driver of video card you are using? It is an a Toshiba?
  You must use the graphics driver Toshiba because non-Toshiba certified graphics driver may cause an overheating problem

• Equium A300D - 16 c. do not start after his stop.

  Please, it is a problem that I seem to not understand. I used my laptop Equium A300d - 16 c with no problems for over a year until last night. I was installing a software (nokia PC suite) that you are prompted to restart the computer. the closure was normal and so he could restart, was a problem. It displays nothing but a screen empty. It is obvious it does not start as when I press the power button it goes immediately. Only the power led is on. Another thing I notice is that the DVD-ROM reads any disk placed inside, but there is no display of any kind.

  My first reaction was that it may be overheating, so I cleaned the vents and amazed the dust of all compartments. but the problem still persists. Please, I want to know what may be the problem before you take it for repairs. Need help. Thank you.

  The indicator disk HARD is not Flash or anything... (in case that helps)
  I also tried to remove the battery, hold the power button for 30 seconds and then reconnect the power cord... Same laptop turns on but the screen is black.

  I have not changed anything inside my computer laptop or unscrewed it.

  PS:
  Quite often, I kept my laptop on the bed/pillow it may have something to do with overheating or something.

  How did I get to this point:

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you very much

  Long ago, I had similar problem on my old Satellite. CPU was faulty. After replacing the CPU, everything was OK again.

  Maybe you should contact Toshiba and let check your laptop. They have diagnostic tools and may know what is the problem.

  You are right. It may be overheating problem.
  Mobile is also pretty hot when suddenly stops?

  In my opinion you should clean it.

• Equium A300D - 13 X overheats and turns off by itself

  The laptop is only 14 months old the problem occurred for a while now and can be annoying.
  The time can varry on when the device is overheating then go off.

  I cleaned the unit to the compressed air to get rid of any dust.
  The fan works fine, the software is genuine.

  Can someone help thank you.

  > This seems to be a problem in the face of most of the people with an Equium a300d but not one that Toshiba is ready to own up to. I have the same problem with my machine, which is 15 months old
  It is a big nonsense!

  You will notice a question also on all series of laptop, any manufacturer!
  Your laptop is 15 months old! More than 2 years!
  Did you clean the fans, cooling grids, etc. during this period?
  I imagine that you didn t.

  You know that laptop still overheats if cooling modules are full of dust and debris, this prevents air circulation and temperature arises at a higher level!

  I clean my vents from time to time with the help of compressed air jet and guess what? It is useful!

• Equium A300D-13 x stucks on the installation screen

  Recently, I sent my laptop (Equium A300D-13 x) back to the Toshiba to fix because it was overheating and cutting.

  She came back today and when I turned it on I got the screen where I was asked if I wanted to go in safe mode or start Windows normally.
  Then it goes to a screen where it says, * complete the installation may take several minutes.

  Please do not interrupt or shut down the computer! *

  I waited all day today and I'm still stuck on this screen.

  Someone had the same problem? And if so, how can I solve this?

  Hello

  I've recovered my laptop several times and the installation always goes smoothly.
  But of course this installation problem could happen still and I think that you should just repeat this procedure.

  If you have n t Toshiba Recovery disk then try to recover the laptop using the recovery of HARD drive option.
  Just press F8 while turning on laptop.
  Then choose fix my computer. Then a new window will appear and you can select the new option called Toshiba HDD.

  Check it out!

• My Equium A300D freezes at BIOS

  Someone help with this one?

  My Equium A300d froze in the Bios boot screen. Finally, I have replaced the ram and hard drive but still the same problem. By trial and error I discovered that the problem was the dvd drive... Remove the system and it loads well, put in place in and from the gel to the bios!

  I replaced the dvd drive wiith a new compatible drive but same result so assume the real hardware is not the problem then can only assume a motherboard problem?

  Has anyone encountered this scenario? Thanks for the research.

  It's really strange question. What version of BIOS is on your computer?

  If I understand you well without ODD your laptop starts properly and preinstalled operating system can be loaded.

  Have you tried to implement ODD when Windows is fully charged?

• Equium A300D - 16 c - display does not

  My girlfriend has an Equium A300D - 16 c which had some problems lately.

  In recent months, whenever she turns on the system, the display does not pull upwards and it takes several tent for lights.

  The strange thing is every time that happens, the system boots normally always that you can hear the Windows 7 startup sound.

  I'm looking for in this question for some time now and I'm running out of ideas.
  Initially, I thought that it could be a wiring problem but by stripping the laptop down, I found that the cable was still firmly in place.

  I also tried to remove the RAM, HARD drive and DVD drive, but it still doesn't pull upward. On the odd occasion she started upward when you do it, but after restart, it has not started again.

  I think that this could be either a transmitting power or the mother board is on its way. This problem has worsened gradually (it took more than 20 attempts it turn on and off this morning) so finally he come not at all.

  To clarify, the system will start after several attempts, but most of the time that the screen not turn on (not even the backlight). It works with an external display on the HDMI so the GPU works.
  I tried to keep the power with no energy source button to unload the system, but it does not help.

  I also noticed that if you hear it boot and close the cover, the reopening of the display lid will come on but with the bad (1024 x 768) resolution that has intrigued me even more.

  Any ideas on what could be the problem? I would repair it rather than just buying a new as its still a decent system apart from this problem.

  > To clarify, the system will start after several attempts, but most of the time that the screen not turn on (not even the backlight). It works with an external display on the HDMI so the GPU works.

  This means that you can use the laptop as part of the external screen, but it does not work with the internal screen?

  This means that the internal display module isn't OK. It probably needs to be replaced.
  But this does not explain the problems while turning on the laptop.

  In the worst case the mother for laptop AND the internal screen are affected, but it would be really strange and rare bad luck

  Hi all

  I've had my Toshiba Equium A300D for 2 years now. Meanwhile, it works normally, sometimes stops himself maye because it was too hot.

  I was unable to change the setting to update Windows automatically, because every time I tried to do it froze. Most of the other commands became even viewing photos that do not meet.

  It was until my computer could not connect to a certain wireless network, while other devices may I decided to reinstall Windows completely. He was installing normally but it got too hot and the computer closes again!

  I tried to install again and he was arrested again, but I got up in the final phase of the game when I turned it on again, it was always 'finihing the installation may take several minutes. lease do not interrupt or shut down the computer. Let him over several hours, but he did not move to a different stage. Before the computer shuts down, I think I arrived at the scene after that.

  Hey,.

  You can test Windows with Toshiba Recovery disk installation, please?

• Equium A300D-13 x - No battery is detected

  Hello

  Recently, I thought it would be time for me to buy a new laptop for my Toshiba Equium A300D-13 x from the current battery is so old, I get about 5-7 minutes to load off of him.

  So I looked online and shopped and the official Toshiba who were £140!, to remedy that I opted for a replacement which was about £20 (cheap).

  Anyway, the battery is the same exact battery toshiba model number official I have and that is the exact same voltage 10.8V. However the battery is not detected in the laptop?

  What is interesting is that the battery powers the laptop he just doesn't tell me how many remaining charge, I left. Also when it is plugged to the AC does not detect, it looks as if he is in charge the laptop as the clear meaning that the AC is plugged is on, and the battery indicator orange (charging)

  All I have this problem or know what I can do to fix this, as I don't have 140 pounds sterling to buy a new battery.

  Thank you.
  Aude

  Hello

  Have you had the same battery problems with the old, original battery?

  In my experience there are a several batteries 3 third-party but not all meet the standards even if the part number is the same

  But it seems that the battery is detected because the laptop can be powered on using the orange battery indicator battery energy you also show that the battery would be charged.

  However, I would recommend checking the version of the BIOS.
  My knowledge BIOS update might help to solve the problems with the battery.

  If it doesn't help you, I'd recommend testing other batteries that you can order directly from an ASP Toshiba in your country in this case you can be sure that your battery is compatible and works 100%.

• Equium A300D - 13 X - Configration system data read error

  Hello

  I have a problem with my Equium A300D - 13 X laptop, everytime I turn on my laptop it starts and loads the initial startup screen as usual, Toshiba once asked that loud "BEEP" comes from my laptop, and lists the following information:

  I replaced the hard drive and flashed the BIOS settings as advised by Toshiba Helpline but the problem persists.

  Help, please! because the "BEEP" is now getting on my nerves!

  See you soon

  Hi andrew_net82,

  It seems that the BIOS has detected an error with a certain part of material...

  Before doing something I recommend you load the default settings in the BIOS. If you are in the BIOS Setup, press the F9 key.

  If it doesn t work you need for professional assistance from an authorized service I think. Guys need to check which part of the material is defective and must be replaced.
  List of the ASP, you can find on the official website of Toshiba.
