Explorer freezes again Satellite M105-S3084

This is a new (1 week) Satellite M105-S3084 running XP MCE with 2 G of ram and Intel duo T2050. I'm having a problem with Explorer solutions (files & folders, not IE) freezing intermittently, sometimes take 10-20 seconds before I take control, other times requiring a reboot.

I am virus and malware clean (Avast, Ad-Aware SE, Sbybot, etc...) and uptodate on all Windows updates.

I checked the support from Toshiba, but could not find any solution. (PC, perhaps too recent). I think that sometimes fingerprint reader software is causing a similar problem, but not sure if it's the same thing. I would like to uninstall the software of fingerprint reader (which I do not use because it is not secure) but can't find it under applications to add/remove to uninstall.

Any suggestions on how to solve this intermittent freezing that seems related to Windows Explorer?

I assume you have the American portable model. I heard that the similar problem was with IE, but it is fixed, if I remember correctly, with a new fingerprint reader software. Download page to check U.S. under http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_sc_home.jsp

  • Need to reset the Protector Suite fingerprint reader - Satellite M105-S3084

    My wife was interested in using the Protector Suite fingerprint reader that came on his Toshiba Satellite M105 S3084.
    She tried to register, but it looks like someone has already registered and need of the original candidate of fingerprint or password.

    I have extracted a confession from my teenage daughter, but he does not recognize her fingerprints, and she can not remember the password.
    She thinks about one of his friends were playing with it (it was a year ago).

    Anyway, we can reset everything, so that my wife can do it again?

    I used to use VISTA and I have registed finger the index print until yesterday. I deleted all the partition and then installed Windows 7 and installed all the drivers. I could all registry middle finger, but I was no longer able to index regisger.

    Another reason, I created a new windows profile and delete the old profile of windows. After that, I could not record not only the index, but also major as well. I guess these finger print data stored outside the windows user profile, but I can't find where it is. How I remove registerd information?

  • How to connect by Satellite M105-S3084 on TV?

    I have a Satellite M105-S3084 equipped of XP SP-2. How can I connect to a TV so that the image appears on the TV? I looked at the manual and it doesn't have a description of the ports on the back and sides of the laptop, or it identifies not what kind of cable I need.

    In addition, special precautions or settings I have to do? I used it with a digital projector, but it was a different cable installation.

    It is placed on the left side S-video port. Use an S-Video cable and connect it to your TV. Please note that this will transfer the video signal only. For sound, you must use headphone output port.

    I put t know not in what country you live but make sure laptop and TV have the same setting (PAL or NTSC). Also, be sure that the S-video TV port is successfully activated.

  • Satellite M105-S3084: is not possible to record streaming audio on the web

    I have a laptop M105-S3084 Satellite with XP MCE SP2. The sound card seems to be something called "Realtek High Definition Audio" on a bus to internal. The driver is 5.10.0.5200 dated dated 09/12/2005.

    This sound card and driver seems not to have what is necessary to allow me to record audio streaming on the web.

    I've been on audio NoticiasLA and determined that although with as SoundBlaster sound cards can save essentially anything that can be produced by PC speakers, this is not the case with the map I have in the Toshiba Satellite.

    For example, only flow for record in software like Audacity and others are 'Mic' and 'Line' all that is available with other cards is several other inputs (Audio mix, etc.) that the software allows to record the sound from the web browser.

    Other than to get another PC or sound card, is there a way to improve the capabilities of its Realtek High Definition Audio card? Others were able to achieve sound web using this sound card?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I use two programs to record the sound from the internet sites;
    The first is wave-recorder and the second Messer.
    These two applications allow you to record from wave and convert and save files in MP3 format.
    You can choose the source of the record; the external microphone or wave.

    Check it out. In my case it works and I m very happy

  • Replace keys of discoloration on the keyboard of the Satellite M105-S3084

    Some of the keys on my keyboard M105-S3084 disappeared while they are more readable.
    I replace the keyboard is generally easy (tips?), but where to buy these replacement keys?

    I guess they are different according to the model.

    You can not buy individual keys, they are delicate and can easily break if removed.

    You will need to replace the entire keyboard. Getting a quote from an ASP, keyboards are not very expensive.

  • Missing letters when you type on Satellite M105

    I use a Satellite M105-S3084 (Windows XP MCE) and fighting in vain with a keyboard problem since I bought it first. I tend to type fast, especially the double letters and find that very often a single of double letters appears on the screen. For example, 'kk' translate to 'k' only and the similar missing letters even if not doubled. This causes a lot of waste of time correcting what I type.

    I know that there are parameters under control Panel\Keyboard ("repeat delay" and "repeat rate") which allow the adjustment of speeds, but I found the frustrating to use. I tried both with different settings and still have a problem with the missing letters. Maybe I don't know how to define that, and I just get frustrated, or there is another bet in another place which I do not know.

    Others have had this problem with the mising letters while typing and found a solution?

    Thank you.

    Hello, Jeff

    If I'm remembering right, there was a similar problem with the Satellite L10 and L20, I don't remember. This problem has been fixed with the new version of the BIOS. US models of laptops are not known to me, but if you have time you can check IRIS ask on the page we Toshiba. You will find many interesting documents.

    Check it out under the http://askiris.toshiba.com/ToshibaSupportSite/supportcentral/supportcentral.do?id=m1

    Maybe you will be lucky and find something on your problem with the keyboard.

  • Satellite M105-S308: silent acoustic CD/DVD icon appears in the taskbar

    I used my Satellite M105-S3084 for quite awhile (year?) when suddenly for the first time a new icon appeared on my taskbar of Windows XP.

    This is the icon for the acoustic CD/DVD Toshiba muffler.

    Because I've never had this icon appears before (and yes I used my CD player a bit), I became concerned about his sudden appearance.

    What is malware? What could arise? Do I need? Can I stop it from running?

    Thank you.

    > Would be - this malware?
    No, it is not malware. This is as designed Toshiba utility. When you listen to music CDs, you can switch to silent mode, and the DVD player runs very quiet.

    > What could arise?
    It is not easy to explain. This utility usually starts with Windows.

    > Do I need?
    No. I am sure that you can live without this utility.

    > Can stop it from running?
    Yes you can. Either remove you it from the startup folder system or check or even entered in the System Configuration utility, under the Startup tab (start run MSCONFIG).

    Good bye

  • Can I use a module of RAM 2 GB in Satellite M105-S1021

    My TECRA stopped with the BSoD (on another thread) and I had to leave my old Satellite M105 - S1021 and try and get it going again.

    First problem was running PRO XP without service pack and it was a * LEGAL * XP home upgrade - tries to install the SP, I received the product key was not valid message - cannot find the CD of XP Pro I used I called MS Support (sounded like in India) and vain - I expected to be provided with a valid key BUT NO! Why MS play the stupid guys like that on a software product is stupid IMHO and brief overview just puts a bad taste in the mouth and make me want to go to UBUNTU LINUX.

    So I had to search in a room full of hardware and PC (sad hoarder I have still a few BACK/WIN 95/98 machines) until I found a CD of XP PRO with a product key if I had XP PRO installed on this Satellite laptop and installed the latest SP

    BUT then I discovered that this laptop as well as it having previously PRO XP without a service Pack installed, there only 448 MB of RAM installed.

    Looking at the memory Crucial site they recommend an upgrade to 2 GB BUT it's 1 GB x 2. Opening the door of memory I see that I don't have that one not slot the two connectors.
    An upgrade to 2GB created using two modules of 1 GB Mem is therefore not possible.

    So my Question is:
    Can I upgrade to 2 GB using a slot OR slots on this L/T only able to take modules 1 GB Mem - I guess as I can / could get a module DDR2 PC2 - 5300 Mem.

    OR only can I put in a single module of 1 GB Mem.

    Can you please first tell us we are discussing here on laptop Tecra or your old Satellite M105 - S1021?

    For the Satellite M105-S1021 I found follow the news:

    Memory5
    -Configured with 512 MB DDR2 533 MHz SDRAM (using a memory module, a memory xpansion open housing)
    -256MB (min) / 2048MB (max), 512 MB of memory accessible service more accessible by the user memory available slot for 256 MB, 512 MB or 1024 MB DDR2 PC4200 533 MHz SDRAM.

    Compatible memory modules:

  • Satellite M105-S3041: where to find a second memory slot

    Hello everyone!

    I just desperately on the TOSHIBA forums for an emergency with a few tech question (more than a problem).
    I own a TOSHIBA Satellite M105-S3041, I currently have Windows Vista Edition full, but only with 512 MB of RAM.
    Yes, he did run the badly slow, so I bought 4 GB of RAM (two sticks of Kingston 2.0 GB).

    Now, the real problem comes when I begin to wonder "how I go to install", I turned upside down from my laptop and I find this small 'door' affluent as a memory icon little engraved.
    So I guess that's where the RAM memory.
    Now, my wealthy laptop RAM TWO modules for up to 4 GB of RAM, as stated in the User Guide, but when I opened the small 'gate' I saw that he was (or seemed to) that a SINGLE module and I couldn't see the stick of 512 MB of RAM today!

    Until "my computer is running on imaginary memory!
    Laughing out loud! "and I can not find the second module!

    Help, please! I need to install any memory now and here where I live there Center support TOSHIBA No. or even a dealer who could help me!
    So I depend only on TOSHIBA online support!, IF possible, in response, I can get a link to a video tutorial or maybe you guys include photos in your answers to guide me?

    Thank you very much!
    Trino A.

    I think that it has already solved the problem. ;)

  • WiFI does not work on Satellite M105-S1021

    My TECRA stopped with the BSoD (on another thread) and I had to leave my old Satellite M105 - S1021 and try and get it going again.

    WiFi does not work on this laptop, even with the switch at the front, running and when I put in a USB WiFI module with an external antenna I get a very bad signal from my router wireless in the next room< 20="" feet="">

    Hello

    I found the specification for this old Satellite M105 series data sheet:
    [Satellite M105-S1021 | http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/modelContent.jsp?ct=DL&os=&category=&moid=1372978& rpn = PSMA2U & modelFilter = M105-S1021 & SelCategorie = 2756709 & selFamily = 1073768663]

    Looks like the laptop was equipped with a map of Atheros 802.11 wireless network b/g.
    If your internal wireless network card does not, even if you have enabled the external WLan switch, then I recommend check device manager first check that the area of Wlan Card network adapters usually map Atheros Wlan must be there if its not listed, install the Atheros Wlan driver

    In addition, next to the switch hardware Wlan, you need to activate the WLan using Fn + F8

    Regarding the USB dongle and a weak signal of Wlan:
    Well, maybe the USB dongle aerial signal is too low on the other hand you should test connectivity using 802.11 B or 802.11 G standard only

  • Problem of time system on Satellite M105-s3051

    Hi all

    My satellite M105-s3051 has a problem in the clock. In the configuration, the seconds will not change. This isn't a rpoblem in the battery, because it saves the changes. When I go to windows, the windows clock assume it, but an hour before, he turns to time I rode in the configuration (1 our less). I've already upgraded BIOS 2.6, but the problem persists. Whenever I enter the configuration, the value I see is the last I have registration, without the clock change, the second number is freeze, as the minutes and hours.

    Any suggestion?
    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    What BIOS did you use?
    This laptop was designed for the U.S. market only, and the drivers and the IOS B must be downloaded and used from the Toshiba page us.
    You said you used the BIOS 2.6. Currently, only the 2.50 version appears on the Toshiba page and 5.20 versions for using Vista!

    Maybe you're using the wrong windows time zone?
    In the -> date & time control panel please check if the box on the right has been chosen.
    Check if the option automatically adjusts the clock to save the changes to day was marked, and if the laptop automatically synchronize with an internet time server.

  • Slow internet via Satellite M105

    Just upgraded my Satellite M105 with two matched 1 GB memory modules previously, he had a module of 512 MB in it running XP PRO on a new 1 TB SATA HDD and it seems much slower than before.
    I just upgraded all of them that I had a problem with WiFi drivers (doesn't) but which is now very good.

    Run tests of speed on speedtest.net and it is very slow sometimes BUT when I use my Gmail or web page it seems to take forever and hesitates with entry of data in email and on a web page when entering URLS, and things like that.

    I tried both Firefox and Safari, and they both seem to be VERY VERY SLOW seems to be offline in MS OFFICE Word, Excel and OpenOffice seems to also be works well, it looks like a network problem.

    Tried both hard wired and WiFi, and it seems to be substantially the same on both.
    Speedtest.NET running on my desktop computer is fine, so it is not a router or ISP problem

    My DT is 15 + DL and 1.5 Mbps UL portable DL 5 Mbps and UL.5 Mbps

    Any ideas?

    Can someone also tell me what I should have installed to networking drivers

    I have:
    Atheros AR5006EG Wireless Network adapt
    Provider Driver Atheros Date 16/09/2005 see 4.1.2.111 of the C:\WINDOWS\system\DRIVERS\ar5211.sys file

    Realtek RTL8139 Family PCI Fast Ethernet NIC
    The file Driver Provider Microsoft Date 01/07/2001 C:\WINDOWS\system\DRIVERS\RTL8139.sys see 5.398.613.2003

    To download the drivers check US support page - http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/home.jsp

    In my view, the problem is the HARD drive. Your Satellite is not the latest model laptop and I don t understand why upgrade with 1 TB of HDD. Original 80 GB to 1 TB. Sorry, but not logical for me.

    Check it with compatible 80, 120 or 250 GB HARD drive and post results.

    Have you tried to remove the battery and the AC adapter? If you remove the two you should an hour and then reconnect the two. Maybe it will work.

    If this isn't the case, it seems to be a hardware problem. You must contact an authorized service provider, you can give them a call to speak to a technician.
