• Blue screen on Equium A60-155 - "Driver IRQ not less or equal" stop 0 x 0

  I have a model Equium A60-155 no psa67e-00300c8j and I got two years ago. She has always had a problem of crash with "IRQ_Not_less_or_equal. I did all the memory reinstall new habit, and updated the BIOS etc.

  In desperation, erased from the hard drive with a windows 2000 and reinstalled the recovery disk and it worked for about a month. When I updated the Explorer and Norton it crashed again. (updates are always a precursor) The laptop and an Explorer to work properly in safe mode. I removed all Norton a PROG from Symantec, but it remains the creases, but it's now a constant error. "Driver_IRQ_not_less_or_equal" with tech info * stop 0 x 00000004, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x00000D1, 0XF7A6A6C6.

  This is almost certainly a driver of windows operating system problem, it happens with any XP disk.

• Question of Eve Equium A60-155

  Hi all

  I an Equium A60-155, which was set up a few times (some with DVD original recovery and a few with the Windows XP Pro CD standard), but has still a problem persistent... whenever the unit to standby and then brought out of standby, it fires upward, but with a black screen and no response from the keyboard. The only way to get into Windows is turned off manually and restart normally.

  Someone else had this problem or a solution? I think it might actually be the hardware at fault because he had so many different re - installed.

  Hello

  I read that the graphics driver and BIOS upgrade might be very useful in such cases.
  You should compare the pre-installed driver and BIOS versions with the versions on the Toshiba page. If there is a newer version, then I recommend to update these applications.

  Your comments would be very appreciated.

• No hard drive on Equium A60-155

  Hello

  I inherited the estate of a parent a Toshiba Equium A60-155 (model without PSA67E-00300C8J)
  It came without any hard drive - the coverage is in the original box from Toshiba, but that's all.

  As it was a gift, I don't mind buying a new HARD drive
  But, can someone tell me the technique so I buy the right one please?

  Thank you
  Tyn

  Post edited by: tynyffridd - topic (oops)

  I found the info that this laptop comes with several different hard drive capacities between 40 and 60 GB.
  So, theoretically, you can use any 2.5 with IDE connector up to 80 or even 120 GB.

• Equium A60-155 - touchpad cable required

  Hi guys,.

  Recently, my mousepad on my laptop has stopped working. So I took it to a computer to check it out.
  He concluded that the cable that connects the mousepad on the motherboard had a small tear in there that cut through some of the metal strips.

  So I am buying a new internal cable of mousepad from somewhere but I can't find anywhere that sells it.
  MY warranty has run out and I do not get a response from technical support Toshiba (at least not yet).

  Anyone know where I can get the Toshiba Equium A60 - 155 Mousepad cable that connects the motherboard to the United Kingdom?

  For any help or suggestion would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  Generally, all Toshiba laptop parts could be bought of the ASP in your country.
  I think that guys would be able to order directly from Toshiba.

  If one of the local FSA does not, then try another service point.

  Here you can find the database with all of the ASP s worldwide:

• Equium A60-155: can I burn DVDs?

  Hello, I have an Equium A60-155.

  I can burn Cd fine, but I want to edit some images from the video camera on DVD.

  It is said Multi-graveur of DVD RW on the side. It means that I can write on DVD.

  Any help would be appreciated

  Hello

  @dns
  The satellite was delivered with the DVD-CDRW combo drive.
  According to the information, you can't burn it to DVD.

  @beatpoet:
  Each Toshiba laptop was delivered with the burning software like drag - drop or a Sonic Record Now.
  I use Nero. It s a great application and I m very happy.

• Equium A60-155: can't access CD/DVD drive

  I own an Equium A60-155 with an extra 512MB memory installed. My problem is with the carpet * a DVD Super - multi Drive.

  When I insert a disc the busy light flashes for about 5 seconds, I hear a small amount of activity, but then it just stops and it stays on permanently. If I try to access the drive through windows, it seems to be empty!

  I had this problem before and it sets just once! I don't think that it is windows such that the drive has the same way (busy light always on, if the disc is in the drive) before even windows has started. My warranty ran out earlier so he sent set is not an option?

  Does anyone have any ideas, what is the problem?

  Hi Joe

  I put really know what can help, but you can try to remove the drive from the Device Manager list. Restart the device and check the functionality again. After you restart the new hardware (CD/DVD-ROM) unit will be recognized and installed correctly.

  If the problem persists with any type of media (original music CD and DVD) it can really be some malfunction of the equipment.

• My opinion on the Toshiba Equium A60-155

  I've had an Equium A60 - 155 during almost a year now and I'm quite impressed by it. For £730 I paid for it, not worth it.

  I had to increase the ram with another stick 512 for another £60 as the laptop does not work even with the standard 192. By that, I mean system breaks down, abnormal system responses, spontaneous reboots, system files/missing features, anti-virus program, just basically a machine unreliable, unusable failures.

  I will say that now the extra ram is installed, the software is more stable and most previous problems disappeared. But Toshiba is expected to have delivered it with 512 MB in the first place!

  And the battery on this is terrible! There is barely even a laptop! On a good day with battery all the saving settings on max I get about 50 minutes of it--and Yes, a year ago, when it was new, it would last together 30 more minutes at about 1:20. At the point where the thing was started in Windows and you install to work, it is for food then you might as well forget about asking him and always run from the network.

  How Toshiba charge that kind of money for a laptop that has this kind of performance? There is nothing on the laptop that can justify this money... the graphics card? Average. The processor? Celeron - enough said. The motherboard? Standard. The battery life? Laughable. The DVD burner? A bonus, but not worth the extra money. The size? Large.

  Just that there is more that I could do about it I wish and Toshiba could be made aware of the misery that they have caused me (and probably many others) during this 'portable '.

  * Note to the mods - please do not remove this post once again. Why do you feel the need to remove it anyway? Send me an email.

  I don't want to sound harsh, but you shouldn't really complain if you had bothered to check the specifications before you buy. Regarding the system crash that you can't just blame Toshiba is much poorly written drivers in XP bugs bugs in the BIOS firmware. Make sure you have XP installed with all the latest service packs for updates also updates BIOS (there has been 3 since I bought my A60-181) and if you want to try a different operating system to install Linux or use a distribution like Knoppix bootable CD.
  The battery life on laptops are poor, in general, I have seen some rival brands that quoted 1.5 hours but that the technology for you and having a processor Celeron doesn t s helped no more. That said that 50 minutes seems short for load complete so I recommend to contact Toshiba and see if they replace.
  The Admin of this forum is probably done only by ensuring that all messages on this forum to help are useful asking the nature. Making negative comments about products Toshiba on a Toshiba forum isn't clever but if you have a problem, then ask for help instead.

  see you soon,

• Equium A60-155 - memory upgrade

  I currently have Toshiba Equium A60-155 with 192 MB of RAM standard, and thought of the upgrade or buy a new laptop and I'm looking for advice.

  I use my computer for music production mainly as well as simple tasks such as browsing the internet and funny game (mainly supercomputers, data sets with less emphasis on graphics etc.)

  Basically everything I want to know the weather bought 1 GB of RAM would be update worth it because at the present time, the performance is slow to say the least. It would make a lot of improvement to my laptop or I'd better save for a few months and buy a new computer laptop all together?

  Thanks guys :)

  Hi Claire,

  Increase the RAM in your A60: his current 256 MB will certainly benefit even if I suspect that the improvement will be not exactly breathtaking.

  I suggest using the monitor of the task (available in Task Manager, during the execution of some of your applications to see just what the memory usage you actually is.

  You currently have 64 MB of your existing RAM allocated for use of graphics, and you may be able to reduce this to 32 MB or 16 MB even to give you an additional display options in RAM capacity advances.

  The actual gain from adding additional RAM will come if you want to run multiple simultaneous applications.

  Kind regards

• Equium A60-155 will not start

  Hello

  I have an Equium a60-155, that I knew that she works for a while, but recently I came with a new poroblem... my laptop guard turn off without notice and loses all power.

  The battery has been dead for some time and lasts about 5 seconds, but I've been using the AC adapter.

  Recently, she stops and even the LED lights for the power/battery adapter / is not on.

  At first I thought it was the fuse in the adapter which could have been blown so I replaced it, and it started to work again, but then after a few minutes, it stops and lost all power.

  I had this during the last days and I noticed that it regains power when I unplug the power adapter from the mains supply and remove the fuse and put it back in but his lasts only for a few minutes.

  I don't know if it is a hardware problem or I just need a new adapter. Someone at - it similar problems and can offer any adivce?

  Hello!

  What do you think that the laptop is overheating? I don't know, but if so the laptop would also immediately turn off m.
  So, try to clean the laptop with a jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans. So you don't have to disassemble the laptop.

  If it doesn't help it's really hard to say what the reason is for this maybe you should bring the laptop to an authorized service provider. Technicians can check the laptop.

  Good bye

• Driver error to display on my Equium A60-155

  I have an Equium A60 - 155. I've had consistent problems where I get a message saying that my ati display driver has stopped working. I downloaded again the driver and still no change. I've seen the blue screen of death several times but do not see it for quite a long time to read it is said but it does not specify the ati driver again.

  Can someone PLEASE tell me what to do!
  It makes me crazy!

  Blue screen of death shows usually only two things: corrupt or poorly written discs or a defective hardware such as memory.
  First of all I would like to start by testing your system for that RAM, I recommend a program called memtest86 - http://www.memtest86.com/
  If your RAM is exceeded then the problem may be driver or hardware related. Unfortunately solving BSOD problem can be a real pain, so it might be useful to consider using the product just recovery DVDs make sure you backup that all your personal data files because this procedure will destroy all data.

• Equium A60-155, don't 'sees' new HARD drive

  I have an old Equium A60-155, P5A67E and tried to install a new drive hard - one Samsung 120 GB, 5400 RPM IDE.
  However the BIOS (ver 1.90) is not 'see' and has no auto-detection option I see either - in fact it has very few options for anyone!

  The existing drive (original) is a Fujitsu 40 GB IDE.

  The 120 GB should be not OK, below the barrier of 128 Gb? - but would be using a suitable HARD drive utility (-Samsung offers a version of OnTrack) to make the drive HARD smaller 'look' for the Bios, be any help anyway? Is that the new drive faulty? Any other ideas?

  Any help is appreciated!

  I agree with you and think that 120 GB should be recognized correctly. It is not easy to say what the problem is here. BIOPS value default settings and check again. If the same problem persists, try using a different HDD with 80 or 100 GB to see if any of them will be recognized correctly.

  Problem is that you have limited options with all this and that he cannot do much. Either it is admitted or not.

• Equium A60-155 - HARD drive upgrade

  I have an Equium A60-155 with 40G HARD drive.
  The manual says that this model comes with up to 80G installed, but is it possible to upgrade to 120, or even 160G?

  Hello

  If your laptop comes with a HDD of 80 GB then you ve got a good chance a 100 GB or 120 GB HARD drive would be supported.
  I have no course with a size of 160GB HARD drive but I m m the 160 GB might be too afraid.

  I recommend you use and test a 120 GB
