GPU fans to work on Satellite P100-429 (Nvidia) on Linux

Hello

I have a P100-429... and managed to get the GPU fan to work. As most of you probably know, we edit the DSDT in order to get its work under Linux (and these laptops). There, another fix that also allows the GPU fan work. Mine seems to be on low-speed all the time and the Nvidia display configuration application now the temp to be less than 50 c most of the time, so before he went up to 75 or more.

In any case, I've posted my DSDT updated at: http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/edit.php?manufacturer=Toshiba&name=Satellite+P100-429

NB I use also of the Bios version 3.30.

I found the solution on the French site, I had to interpret slightly.

My laptop feels much cooler now then before.
Hope this helps someone.

See you soon

  • Satellite P100 - 429 LAN wireless has stopped working

    I had a satellite P100-429 during about three weeks, the wireless card was working fine until yesterday. Today I turned on the laptop, but I can't connect to my access point.

    In fact the laptop can now find any wireless network at all.

    Can anyone help?

    Have you checked the common things like a status of Wlan card in the device, the Wlan router configuration manager, etc...?
    Also check if the Wlan card switch is set to on. Further, you can try to fix the WiFi connection.
    To do something like that, he must go to "network connections", right click on the WiFi connection and choose repair.

    Do you use 3rd party WLan configuration software? If so, please check if the windows have configuration option WLan has not been activated.

  • Bad screen refresh rate shown under Vista - Satellite P100-429

    Hello

    I have a Satellite P100-429. There are three weak, I install Windows Vista Ultimate Edition, but now the highest of screen refresh rate is 60 Hz. I tried to download the latest drivers for the graphics card, but this will not work and the computer also says that the monitor is called generic PNP.

    Before Vista has a 100 Hz screen refresh rate and monitor had his screen Toshiba TruBrite WXGA + TFT of own name I tried looking for drivers for the monitor but without success, someone can help me pretty please, I get headaches for the low screen refresh rate.

    Hello

    Have you installed the right graphics card driver?
    Immediately after installation of Vista, the operating system uses Microsoft's own common graphics driver.
    If you want to use additional graphics options, you need to install the compatible graphics card driver.

    But I want to clarify something. The LCD or TFT screens give excellent quality and resolution at 60 Hz.
    the Refresh on TFT rate simply won't say the same thing about monitors CRT.
    Response time, brightness of the Image and the contrast of the Image are more important for a TFT or LCD monitor like the refresh rate.

    Performance display and the quality isn't worst if it run on 60 Hz
    Therefore, I see no reason to change the refresh rate of 100 Hz

    Hello

    I n t have experience with these tools of recovery of the BIOS because I think it s a little too risky. There is no official way to recover a BIOS and I don t want to destroy the whole ROM module.

    In my opinion if a BIOS update n t successful, you should go to an authorized service provider. Contact a technician for laptop and explain your situation. The technician can try to reflash it and they have more experience. I think that this should t be a problem to connect with one. ;)

    Good luck!

  • Satellite P100-429: Intel Wireless Wifi Link 4965agn card is not compatible?

    Hey guys

    I have a Satellite P100-429 with a 3965abg to intel, I have a few router purchased months ago Netgear wnr834b n project, then think, it is high time, I upgraded my internal adapter.

    I wanted to know if the Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN adapter would fit that is a right with the 3965 swap, as it says it's connection is Mini PCIe card * and I have no idea if it would fit?

    Hello

    Yes, she should go, because the W-LAN-mini-card slot is a PCI-Express, so you'll just have to swap the cards. But be careful with the antenna connections, if you bend them too so they break very quickly and then there is NO WAY back and you will pay for the exchange of
    the whole cover, where are the antennas of screen.

    Best is to contact a local service partner if they exchanged, you don t therefore the risk for the guarantee void if you do something 'not very good' on your machine. :)

  • Satellite P100-429: how to burn on DVD?

    Got a Satellite P100 429 he will write DVDs? He says, but I can't seem to do it (without recorder) is all I get.
    If it can HOW? (driving me crazy)

    Hello

    I imagine that you replace didn t drive of the laptop.
    Many laptops come with a different hardware configuration. This means that as different readers might be installed in the laptop. But if you bought the laptop with the DVD burner I see not why the reader should not burn the DVD.

    What burning software do you use? I use Nero. It's great and easy to use.
    I advise to use it for burning media. It supports CDs and DVDs

  • Satellite P100-429 does support the 5-in-1 card reader?

    IM wanting to buy a new laptop computer and is came through the "Toshiba Satellite P100-429'." It's the portable perfect! However, when I searched the internet for a detailed technical specification, I found that on pixmania.co.uk he states that there is no memory card reader:

    http://www.Pixmania.co.UK/UK/UK/462038/art/Toshiba/Satellite-P100-429.html

    Still other sites, he says that there is a 5-in-1 including Toshiba card reader themselves. It is therefore possible to have the same laptop model but with a different specification? or is it a typo in the site of pixmania? Thank you

    > is it possible to have the same laptop model but with a different technique
    Of course, many laptops in the same series were delivered with different hardware specifications it is nothing unusual.

    For example, the dvi video port, express card slot or the married media card slot are available on some models.
    I would trust the Web from Toshiba site and this model should support housing ExpressCard and a PCMCIA Type II slot.
    The slot SD, Compact Flash Card slot card and smart card reader are not available on this model

    I have 2 GB of Ram at the moment and would like to 4 GB is possible, accept the Bios and I run Windows Vitsa Home Edition.

    Hello

    I googled a bit and found some information s
    It seems that the Satellite P100-429 supports the 4 GB of RAM.
    The Intel® 945 PM Express chipset, which is installed in this notebook supports 4 GB to 400, 533 and 667 MHz

    So, theoretically, you might be able to pass to 4 GB of RAM.

    But note; If you are using Vista 32-bit, then the OS will see only 3.2 GB

    To get full access 4 GB of RAM, you will need the 64-bit Windows OS.

  • Satellite P100-429 - new wireless network card does not work

    Hello

    I just upgraded my home network to the draft of the standard "n" and thought that I would upgrade my wireless card on my laptop P100-429;
    Laptop is under Vista Home Premium and has the latest version of BIOS and drivers installed.

    Laptop currently has an equipped Intel 3945ABG card that works very well. I bought an Intel 4965AGN card but when I enter it, the powers of computer to top, but wont load (lights, fan-nothing else)

    Okay - so I read on some forums, could be a bad card, so I bought a brand Toshiba 4965AGN card - P/N G86C0002P710
    Still having the same problem - the computer refuses to start. Intel technical support say the card should work?
    Obviously is a compatibility problem - what can I do about it?

    Or did someone knows what kind of card I should use?

    Thanks for your help!

    I m not a Satellite P100 owner but is your laptop equipped with 3 antennas or only 2?
    If your laptop has only 2 antennas t, you can pass it to N project because this WiFi standard needs of 3 antennas.

    I think that your laptop has only 2 antennas, so that would be the reason why the two cards are not compatible to your laptop.

  • Satellite P100-429 - Question about fans and ACPIs etc.

    Hi all

    I have read a number of thread on this forum regarding the work (or not!) with the P100 series fans.
    I use Ubuntu Feisty (7.04) I've updated my DSDT with a custom compiled version and also uses the version 3.30 BIOS... I had to do in order to get the sound working on this laptop.

    However, I noticed that the fan on the left side of the laptop never turns under Linux. It turns on with XP.
    The fan at the back of the computer seems fine no lights when the CPU is running...

    What is the GPU fan?
    Nobody knows if this will be quickly resolved... I raised a few applications support with Toshiba in the hope that it will make a difference.

    Also doesn't someone at - it will suspend / hibernate works correctly (i.e. sound and networking works when he took over)...

  • Satellite P100 - 429 A3 off when windows loads

    Heya. It is a serious problem that made my laptop unusable. I was wondering if anyone knows what it is.

    I was in a source game when it happened for the first time, I jumped into the game and the laptop just cut off. No classes stop, he just turned directly to the exit as if someone had held the power button. I looked at him with her for a minute and then turned it back. Everything seems to be going very well, I thought it was just an odd hiccup, but then, after completing the windows loading screen, it does exactly the same thing. Now every time I start, it get past the loading screen and sometimes it get on to the welcome message, was until the cursor is even loaded, it will turn off in the same engineering.

    The only things I've recently changed it is the BIOS (which is my obvious suspicion). I was watching just the page drivers from the Toshiba site and I found a BIOS update for my Notbook cliaming that it has been improved. So I downloaded and installed, once the facility had done his work to restart the laptop, but on all first run Windows bluescreened before he had even loaded. Then, after that, it worked very well so far.

    I also tried to use a Windows disk to perform a recovery of windows. However, the recovery console has done the same thing. In a few seconds initialization, the computer just cut off.

    If anyone has an idea of what is is, please let me know.

    Sorry for the typos, I'm not on a familiar keyboard.

    Thanks again.

    > I jumped into the game and the laptop just cut off. No classes stop, he just turned directly to the exit as if someone had held the power button.

    Well, this looks like an overheating problem. Fact is that all internal devices run with a full performance during the game. This leads to a temperature inside the laptop. If your fans are not free because of the dust and debris then the laptop will be shouting down to prevent material damage.
    In this case the fan cleaning is necessary and desirable.
    I had a similar problem on my laptop and solved using a jet of compressed air!

    To my knowledge the P100-429 Sat belongs to the series of PSPA3.
    You should really be 100% sure that you are using the good BIOS.

    However, it is also possible that the laptops hardware is malfunctioning.
    In this case, the verification of the material is necessary. This test can be done by a service provider authorized in your country.

    Good luck
