• 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.

• How can I copy DVDs on the HDD on Equium A60-155

  Anyone know if I can copy DVDs to the hard drive?
  I have an Equium A60-155 and Sonic Record now and Intervideo winDVD creator on it.

  These two programs say that they allow me to copy to a blank disc, but don not say if I can copy on the hard disk.

  Hello

  sure, why not. Go to Explorer windows and do copy - paste, which should make the thing.

  Otherwise, there should be a few good programs like "Isobuster" that can do almost the same thing...

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.
  Help, please!

• 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,

• Overheating on Equium A60-155

  Hi all

  I've owned an equium a60-155 for almost a year now, it has been discovered, but recently it began to close, which I suppose is overheating.

  the vents are clear and unblocked, although the area around the Equium logo (top right of the base unit) feels very warm after a closed random

  I use the machine for work and play and sometimes watching DVDs

  for about 2 weeks, ao that the machine started randomly turning its self, without warning, the machine sits on a table and the underside and rear passages are clear

  There is no virus/spy/software advertising on my machine and all programs are updated

  Anyone know of a cause or a solution to my problem?

  Thanks in advance

  Jake Houghton

  Hello

  Well, if there are cooling vents are free and not dirty, so I guess that the cooling fans are working properly. In this case, what you can do is to check the settings for standby power.
  Try changing the method of control of the CPU to Auto. Also, check if the cooling method is set for maximum performance.

• Audio CD not playing not not in mast * a 820 s UJ on Equium A60-155

  Hello

  I'm having some trouble with audio CDs on my Equium A60-155 with the carpet * a UJ 820 dvd multi recorder. By audio CD, I hear cd albums purchased, not copies or CDs with mp3 files (I'm ripping my cd collection on a MP3 player through my laptop).

  A brief description of the problem is:

  Some cds do not play the disk at all - I can hear it clicking and buzzing and light orange on the eject disc, but it will not read the disk and the pc hangs until I have the disc. Some CD play, but with sound distortions (e.g. constant cracking and popping); and some CD and play ignite very well, without any problems at all.

  Windows Media Player is what I use to play the CD. The CD I'm unable to play fine on a normal cd player and on other PCs (I tried a number of these CDs on several PCs in my office and have no problem at all), so I'm confident drives real themselves are not the issue.

  I would also like to add that no audio CD (for example the software) and DVD playback absolutely perfect on my laptop with no problems whatsoever.

  I tried most of the advice in other posts here with similar issues:
  I have reinstalled/updated all the drivers, firmware and bios.
  I removed the dvd drive of the Device Manager and rebooted to force Windows to reinstall.
  I tried to clean the lens with a cd lens cleaning cd.
  I tried to play the CD via iTunes and RealPlayer instead of WMP, but have the same problems.

  I would appreciate any advice that anyone could offer. In reading the other posts it seems similar to the problem of lens calibration other posters have known, but I would have thought that he would not play any CD at all if that was the case.

  Please let me know if you need more information. I use Windows XP SP2.

  Thanks in advance,
  Ed

  Check this box:
  Go to the properties of the drive and select the Hardware tab. Then choose new drive and select Properties. Then check in the Properties tab, if the Enable CD digital option for CD-rom audio is marked
  Maybe it helps.

  I have although this could have something to do with audio copy that has been applied on some audio CD s protection.
  I read on the internet that many different readers might have some problems with these copy protections.

  Maybe I m wrong, or even it s calibration lens problem
  These problems might arise if the lens can not calibrate correctly. I mean that the reader may be able to play media and others not.

• 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

• Equium A60-155: replacement of the cooling fan

  which screws can I remove to access the cooling fan if you please. (Equium A60-155)

  Hello

  Unfortunately, don t find all documents on the fan to replace procedure, but in my opinion it should remove much of a screw covers.
  This procedure is not easy and if you don't have any experience you shouldn't t remove anything.
  By the way; If you remove the cover, you will lose the warranty.

  In this case, the best way is to contact Toshiba service in your country for assistance and more information.
