  Hello Kat

  I have the same laptop. This is the Satellite A100-504 comes with Windows XP Home edition. It is the different number (504) but the same hardware configuration, and the number PSAA9E. I have preinstalled Vista last week successfully and everything works well.

  You use facilities upgrade Toshiba Vista DVD or you own Vista DVD?
  In any case, I installed clean Vista OS (using the facilities of Microsoft CD). After that, I visited the download page of Toshiba and initially downloaded the document called Instructions of facilities.

  Please, do the same and install stuff all listed in the order. It is very important. After this Vista should work well and also all Toshiba designed tools and utilities.

  BTW: standby power utility is not like before as Windows XP Home edition. Laptop uses Vista power settings now.

• Its virtual does not support my Satellite A100-998 with Vista

  Hello.

  I have the Satellite A100-998, and yesterday I find for my driver the new laptop. I download Virtual Sound to my laptop and for vista, and when I try to install the driver that I have error "Toshiba Virtual Sound can't stand your computer." Why

  PS. Sorry for my bad English, but please help me!

  Hello

  I think the problem is that your computer has a sound card, which was designed for XP and not Vista. Thus, you need to download a special driver
  to make the Gizmo work.

• XD - bit (CPU function) disabled/not available for Satellite A100-PSAA9

  Last week, I bought the laptop Toshiba Satellite A100-847 (Satellite A100-SPAA9) which has an Intel Core 2 Duo, model T7200.

  Specifications Intel, this processor (as all Core and Core 2 processors) has the particularity of XD - bit, known in Windows like DEP. I had the unpleasant surprise to discover that this feature is
  reported by Windows as unavailable (in hardware). I got the electronic manual on the recovery CD (which is an edition that is older than the printed manual that comes in the package) that I can do this feature
  available (for some older models of Satellite) but I couldn't find any option in my BIOS to do this (my BIOS is made by Phoenix, version 2.0).

  I really want to know how to make this feature available/active as my processor socket and so is the operating system purchased with the laptop and more than that, this feature is something beneficial - specially designed for security reasons and supported by all modern processors and operating systems.
  What do I have to wait for an updated BIOS include this option (to activate the feature XD bit) or that it is automatically set as active/available (instead of disabled/not available)?

  I expect a well documented answer from someone who knows what I'm talking about.

  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  I know what you're talking about.
  Execute Disable Bit (xD-bit) Intel can help prevent certain malicious types of buffer overflow attacks when combined with a compatible operating system.
  Disabling malware code procedure is called the extension-> short adj. data protection

  Data Execution Prevention (DEP) helps prevent damage from viruses and other security threats that attack by running (executing) malicious code of the locations of memory that Windows and other programs should use. This type of threat causes damage by taking over one or more locations of memory used by a program. Then she spreads and harms other programs, files, and even your email contacts.

  Unlike an antivirus program or firewall, DEP does not prevent harmful programs from being installed on your computer. Instead, it monitors your programs to determine if they use the system safely memory. To do this, DEP software works alone or with compatible microprocessors to mark some memory locations as "non-executable".

  If a program tries to run malicious code or not a protected location, DEP closed the program and notifies you.
  DEP can take advantage of software and hardware support. To use DEP, your computer must be running Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) or later version, or Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 or later version. Software only DEP helps protect against certain types of malware attacks, but to take full advantage of the protection DEP can offer, your processor must support "execution protection".

  The Windows 32 bit (SP2) version supports bit off Execute (xD) so the computer function notebook processor is running in mode of extension (PEA) physical address.
  It is a technology based on hardware designed to mark the locations of memory as non-executable.
  If your processor doesn't support hardware DEP, you need to upgrade a processor that offers execution protection features.

  However, you can see the control panel-> system-> Advanced tab-> Performance settings-> Data Execution Prevention tab.

  By default, DEP is enabled only for essential Windows operating system programs and services. In order to protect more programs with DEP, select turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select.

• Network controller is not recognized on Satellite A100 Windows XP

  Hi all!

  I bought a Satellite A100 PSAAR and I did a clean install of Windows XP on it. I installed all the drivers in the correct order (downloaded from the support page) but I still have a problem:

  Ethernet controller and network controller appear with a yellow exclamation point in Device Manager, and they are not recognized. I have downloaded the driver lan and I managed to do recognize the ethernet controller. However no matter how hard I tried, I can't find the correct driver for the NETWORK CONTROLLER, which still appears in Device Manager in yellow color.

  I really could use any help here... Thank you in advance.

  Hello

  Shouldn´t be a big problem to get some drivers for your machine's real lan. Just go here:

  http://www.Intel.com

  and download the intel proset for ethernet controller. If you didn t already installed the wireless card, do so. Otherwise the other network controller could be the bluetooth adapter.

  It would be nice to hear from you...

  See you soon

• Network adapter is not on the Satellite A100

  Hi all!

  Satellite A100-071
  After a few manoth use book, once after restarting network card is out. Equipment Manager Windows cannot find map, but is all activated in BOS...

  Hello

  You said that windows hardware Manager does not map. I assume you mean on the Device Manager.
  What LAN status is the device manager report? Do you see any yellow exclamation?

  I think it s a driver problem or something wrong with the system files and registry entries.
  So, as a first step I would recommend installation or update the NIC driver!
  This driver must be downloaded and installed the Tosh site.

  If this does not help, maybe that the operating system needs to be reinstalled again.

  Good luck

  3. start the Bluetooth stack
  4 turn on the Bluetooth on the mobile phone (discoverable)

  5. Select the Express mode > next
  6. choose visible device listed in the list of Bluetooth devices > next
  7 choose to identify passkey (1234)
  8. Enter the key in the mobile phone. Twinning will be success
  9. go on Next and configure the internet connection (provider number) > finish
  10. the new connection will be created in the Bluetooth stack utility
  11. you can start the numbering with double click or click with the right button of the mouse and choose Connect

  I set up my Nokia on this path. If you want to connection start the Bluetooth settings you can find in Toshiba Assist on the CONNECTION tab. Double click on the created connection must activate the connection procedure.

• Output TV does not work properly with my new Satellite A100-812

  Hey everybody,
  A little, I have a problem with my new laptop if not satisfactory.
  The only thing that does not work (except some progs) in Vista is out of my tv.

  After many hours spent trawling the net, I came across different solutions, but none worked.
  The A100-812 has a geforce Go7600 who has taken TV svhs.
  First, I tried to connect to my tv through my old cinch cable. It took me 2 days before I gave up and bought a new svhs cable. Cable that works now and after a hell of a lot of attachment,

  I finally have a working tv. Except that its black and white. I used the click right-> NVIDIA Control Panel and changed the signal. I live in the Netherlands, where B/PAL is the standard. But even in trying all the different types of signals I don't get any color.

  Someone else has had this problem and solved? I downloaded the nvidia latestet drivers and I'm desperate, I bought the laptop to make it work!
  Any suggestion is more than welcome.
  See you soon,.
  Retriever

  Hello

  the problem is that the nvidia drivers are still not final. I have an A100 and desktop system and two systems have problems with tv output. It s Yes, probably a clear driver problem.
  After many surveys, I found many comments in the forum of nvidia, where users are desperate and angry about this issue.
  Thus, the only choice is to change XP up to what nvidia will release some drivers work... that s my way.

  Cheers to a disappointed user nvidia

• The bluetooth software is pre-installed, but not Bluetooth on Satellite A100

  Boxing-today, I bought an A100-TA7 with all kinds of software installed Bluetooth (bluetooth and bluetooth stack etc..)
  I tried to upload a picture of my Sony W580 phone but the phone could not find the Bluetooth.
  I went through the wizards, but nothing happened.

  Is my A100 has bluetooth?
  If not, then why the software is reinstalled?
  Also, what is the difference betwwen just Bluetooth and battery Bluetooth?

  Thank you

  Hello

  The easiest way to check if the device has BT or not is to see the underside of your laptop. Each unit with a label of BT BT module. More info on which you can find under http://aps.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/ > s FAQ > why Bluetooth is not working?

  Why is the software installed? The answer is quite simple. In each series of laptop there are a lot of different hardware configurations and some series have over 100 different laptops, in particular a series. Here in Europe, we have books from A100-100 to A100-980. There are a lot of units, and it is not possible to create a recovery CD for each unique laptop model.

  Because of this Toshiba to create a sort of standard installations CD that can be used on many models. If your unit doesn't have BT you can simply remove the preinstalled applications.

  Good bye

• Right shift key stopped working on my C50D-A Satellite

  Press right shift has stopped working on my C50D-A, I checked to make sticky keys of course it is and turned off and restarted is disabled. Help, please

  In my opinion, you must connect USB external keyboard to verify if the right SHIFT key would react by pressing the button.

  If it works, the question is clear: the internal keyboard is faulty and should be replaced

• Question about the key to restore with Vista premium on Satellite A100 CD

  I have a Satellite A110 which is compatible with Vista, but recovery of product is Windows XP.
  I use my cd of restoration of friends and it work perfect until it tell me to put the product key for vista Home premium
  I used the product key with the cd, they said it is not acceptable.
  give me the solution

  Solution? Buy your own Vista and use it with the activation code valid. The button located on the bottom side belongs to the Windows XP Home edition version, that you got with recovery media. It is not a kind of universal key.

• HARD drive only works with 5 UDMA on Satellite A100-906

  Why the disk hard s - ata on A100-906 works with the MODE ULTRA DMA 5 and not 6 or higher it should be with the controller s - ata.

  Hello

  How did you check that?

  Just for info:
  The UDMA 5 Mode = UDMA100 and UDMA133 the UDMA Mode 6
  Perhaps the DMA controller supports the UDMA133 but the HARD drive doesn't.
  Sometimes the UDMA133 is not automatically enabled on hard drives.

  For example:
  I read that the UDMA Mode 5 is activated automatically on the Samsung drives and if someone wants to use mode UDMA 6 then must be activated manually.
  In this case, the application of the 3rd part is necessary as Hutil.

• Mouse and keyboard no longer work after fixing drive dvd - Satellite A100-147

  My DVD Player wasn't working, so I fixed it with the help of some advice from a forum: go to regedit to remove the 'previous' and 'high' or something, I have a catalog specified.

  But then the keyboard and the touchpad is dead in Windows. Nor can I use an external keyboard and mouse.

  I tried to start it in safe mode and with the last settings that worked. None succeeded. Apart from the fact that the keyboard actually works to make choices, therefore, a question Ms.

  Ideas/fixes would be greatly appreciated.

  Computer: Equium a100-147
  OS: XP media center w/sp2 (I think)

  Maybe you deleted the upperfilters wrong or additional / lowerfilters?
  The correct key is {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  Boot safe mode.
  Go to control panel-> Add/Remove Programs control
  Uninstall all software Mouse/touchpad/keyboard/logitech that can be installed
  Go to Device Manager
  go to view - > click on 'show hidden devices '.
  Delete all devices under "mice and other pointing devices" and "keyboards".
  Reset.
  XP should detect the mouse and keyboard and install the drivers.
  Download and install the driver for the touchpad to the A100 section drivers on the Toshiba site
