• Equium A60-157, problem after update BIOS 1.90

  Hi all!

  I've had my Toshiba Equium A60-157 for two months. I've updated the my bios twice. First of 1.70 to 1.8 C and from 1.8 to the current 1.90 (common at the time I made this post).

  I noticed that as soon as I used my recovery DVDs to restore the laptop to the default constructor, I had a problem with the main user account that is normally created after the completion of the recovery strategy.

  Whenever Windows would open a session after the recovery account generated, a popup would display a message similar to the following:

  "Windows can not load the profile and connects you with a temporary profile." No changes will be saved. "

  He also said that this problem was maybe due to incorrect permissions, or something like that. The pop-up window also contained a 30-second countdown before opening in windows with the temporary profile. As indicated by the pop-message no changes would be recorded. I could even change my user account image.

  I ran it again the DVD of recovery only to get the same problem. This NEVER happened when I ran on the original bios 1.70, bios recovery DVD AND 1.8 c.

  Anyway I came up with a solution to this problem, which only caused me no problem at the present time.

  I just logged into Windows mode without failure, entered the account administrator, created a new account and deleted the account of departure (created at the end of the recovery program).

  So far, the user account-wise, everything back to normal.

  If the recovery strategy or the bios did not cause this problem, I would be grateful if someone could give me some possibilities of doing just that.

  I don't want to get updates of bios from 5-10 down the road, only to find out that my recovery DVD does not work.

  Fact the DVD should be updated as well as the recovery bios?

  Thanks for your time.

  Hi, Conrad

  Can you please tell me why you do the updates to the BIOS? Have you had any problems? I use my unit for close to two years and I didn t make any BIOS update so far. If everything works well, it is not necessary to do an update with the exception of some Microsoft updates that make the OS more secure. Don t do any update if it is not necessary.

  In any case, I am very confused with your question. Normally, Recovery DVD should not be updated. The BIOS updates are useful if there is a hardware conflict or a problem and not a problem using the operating system or any software.

  It will be interesting to know why you're doing the recovery procedure each time after BIOS update.

• Equium A60-692 restarts after closing the lid

  More annoying, the only thing I can do is hold the power button to turn off & on again. Is there a key combination should I put pressure to bring its edge form after you have closed the lid, or is it a fault?

  Thank you

  Usually when the size of the memory changes, the system can recover.

  Remove the battery and the AC adapter / CC, and then remove one of the memory Modules and power on.

  When the machine starts and get you the LOGO LOGO & P4 TOSHIBA lines running down the screen there is a fault or a common thing with Toshiba?

  Thank you

  Have you seen these lines on other applications?

• Equium A60 - 157 HELP Card/PCMCIA wireless network!

  Hi all!

  This problem has been frustrating me for at least 2 months.

  OK, I recently bought a Belkin Wireless G Notebook Card (wifi card).
  The first time I installed the wifi card it worked perfectly. I powered
  extinguish your laptop (after I had finished working on it). The next day
  When I turned the laptop on, you guessed it, the wifi card was not
  work. I did not remove the wifi card for the power off/power on stage.

  When I went into Device Manager, a yellow exclamation point was
  above the wifi card. When I looked at the properties of wifi cards, I found the
  following message appears:

  This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12)
  If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system.
  Click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooter for this device.

  I tried unistalling and reinstalling the wifi card. I tried to use the latest Belkin drivers for the wifi card. Sometimes it works, but when I have the power turned off/turned on the laptop it s not go.

  One of the ways I got the card to operate was removing and inserting the card several times
  until he finds resources and finally worked. I put t use this method as, obviously, I might damage the cardbus slot and the card. In the meantime I ve been using a Belkin Wireless G USB network adapter. I had no problems with the USB adapter, but I prefer to use the wifi card. This is because the majority of the wifi card is housed inside the laptop, so it s not easily evicted. The USB adapter is great for wireless networks inside, but too risky for roaming outside.

  I had this problem of 1.70 at 1.8 ° C bios version, and I still have it with revision 1.90. I intend to return m wifi card in the store for an Exchange, but I have a really bad feeling that the same thing will happen with the replacement of the card. I m not convinced that the current wifi card is defective, because it works perfectly when he gets the resources.

  I tried to manually configure resources on the devices, but I have a major problem. Windows seems to be LOCKED in the automatic settings. The automatic settings check box is grayed out completely, it is impossible for me clear the checkbox. I did not take anything in the bios that can help me solve this problem.

  I noticed that there are many devices running off IRQ (interrupt requests) 19, when you view resources by type in Device Manager. These devices are:

  Standard enhanced PCI to USB Host Controller
  USB host controller standard OpenHCD x 2 (two entries)
  Texas Instruments OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller
  Controller CardBus Texas Instrumetns PCI-1410

  When the wireless card works she also runs IRQ 19, but as I said before Windows is locked in the automatic settings and do not manually configure the hardware resources.

  Equium A60-157 is not provided on board, but it has the potential for. WiFi L.e.d. on the front panel, physical location for wifi turn on side panel wireless icon and F8. Someone know if Toshiba offer an upgrade service, or can I install wifi on board myself?

  ANYONE, PLEASE HELP ME WITH THESE QUESTIONS!
  Thanks for your time!

  Hello

  I found this for you:

  Both devices have received a same ports of entry/exit (e/s), the same interrupt, or the same Direct memory access channel (whether through BIOS, the operating system, or a combination of both). This error message may also appear if the BIOS did not allocate enough resources to the device (for example, if a (USB) universal serial bus controller does not get a break in the BIOS because of a damaged MPS (Multiprocessor) system table).
  You can use Device Manager to determine where the conflict is and turn off the device in conflict. On the tab General properties of the device, click Troubleshoot to start the Troubleshooting Wizard.
  Try disabling the features of conflict. It will be interesting to know if the problem will occur again.

  In my opinion, you should contact the Service partner and ask them if the unit is ready for the Wi - Fi module. Sorry, but I'm not sure about that and I don't want to give you a bad information about it.

• Equium A60-157: Question about maximum size of HARD drive

  Hello

  Looking to upgrade my Pentium 4 3.06GHz Equium A60-157 a bit then got a new module of 1024 MB of RAM, but now really to upgrade my 40 gb HDD to go with. I found all the specifications of the type of HARD drive, I need, but may not know what the maximum size of the disk, it is that the BIOS will recognize. I don't think that I've never updated by the BIOS and I'm looking to get a 120 GB drive. Any ideas please?

  Thanks for your help!

  Hi Alex,

  Most portable smanufactured in the last 5 years or so are able to accept larger hard drive capacity without problem. I am currently using a 80 GB drive in an old SA30 of three years. I can't guarantee a 120 GB drive will work, but I see no reason why it wouldn't.

  Kind regards

  Hello

  You are not able to boot the system? Or what?
  What happens if you press F8 immediately after the laptop was turned on?
  You then see the start menu?

  If you can access the advanced boot menu, then you could try using the option called last good known Configuration (Advanced).

  If this will not help and you will not be able to restart the laptop then choose fix my computer-> Toshiba HDD recovery and reinstall the OS using the Toshiba HDD recovery option.

• Equium A60-157 - PCMCIA or USB WLan adapter

  I have an Equium A60-157 and you want to add a wireless adapter.
  Can someone advise me on a PCMCIA or USB adapter suitable for this model.

  VIN.

  It s indifferent if you buy a card PCMICA WLAN or WLAN USB stick.
  My opinion would be a USB key, because you can use it on a PC too.

  I put t have much experience with these WLAN sticks but I would buy one from the manufacturing of your router. For example, I have a router of AVM and a stick of AVM WLAN.
  So you can be sure that s has no problems because you have from different manufacturers.

  I hope I could help a bit.

• Blue screen when you insert the DVD - M40X

  Hello
  I have a new computer laptop toshiba satellite M40x-183. (with DVD super multi)
  After ten days of buying it, I found a problem when playing some DVD and CD, when I insert the dvd I got a blue screen saying... There is an error and windows can stop harmful to your pc and I have to contact the support then start dumping from 100% to 0%...
  I have tried the dvd in many other dvd players and it works perfectly. Team support here told me that this type of dvd player are unable to process this format how it happens so that older toshiba and other laptop brands can do!
  Is there a solution to this?

  Hello

  Well, as the support service team say that the DVD player is not able to read this format.
  But I can't give you a good answer why it s not possible to play this DVD. It s a simple fact that there are many DVD and CD formats on the market and number of readers is not able to play some formats.
  Have you tried to play burn DVDs? I recommend you to test the DVD from other manufacturers. I use TDKs and it works correctly.
