• Computer hangs after having gained access to workstation, network from the beginning places and at other times.

  Hi, I use Windows XP Professional SP/3 on a 32-bit computer. We have three computers on a home network wireless, everything works well for several years. Now several weird things happened more or less at the same time. I can't identify anything what I did precisely that lead to these problems that are:

  a. when I try to open 'My computer', ' Start ' or after opening 'Explorer', all I see is a small icon yellow flashlight, but not records.

  b. when I go 'Start' to 'My Documents' or 'My images', 'My Network Places' and the respective window opens but then crashes if I try to select an option in the left column.

  c. when I open a Word, PowerPoint or other document and try to "save under", a small window pops up that says "initialization root to display folders» Finally after about 2 minutes, show records roots but once again the process crashes as I try to use it.

  d. my computer recognize my HP ScanJet 5590 or my Canon digital camera when I attach one of them through a USB port, but the scanner Wizard and camera does not open to receive the downloaded or scanned images... nothing happens.

  e. when I open a file in "My pictures", I get a picture icon, not the image and then have to go to 'open with' to see the photo in the image viewer. If I try the film option, I see "generating Preview ' but nothing happens.

  f. and finally, when I get to the "my network places" and then click on "computers from the network view", the window hangs. Other computers on the network will appear in "My Network Places" but now only show as an icon is empty, is not an active link.

  So, maybe all these oddities relate? I have reloaded the scanner software, checked the camera drivers and a scanner, all OK. I don't know where to go from here after reading several threads of discussion about some of these issues. Can someone help me? Thank you very much.

  To answer #1, that looks like a setting in the "boot.ini".  The following articles answer this:

  "How to edit the Boot.ini file in Windows XP"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/289022 >
  "Switches to boot mode safe mode to the Windows Boot.ini file"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/Q239780/ >

  This could have also been established by setting a check mark in the tab "Boot.ini" in msconfig.  Try to clear all the check marks in this tab.

  Good job tracing it down to WIA.  He would explain or influence the camera, scanner and long delays to explore.  Check out some of the following items:

  "Long delay before appear it files in my computer in Windows XP"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/819017 >
  "Windows XP does not recognize a Canon PowerShot S100 Digital camera"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/810609 >
  "Windows XP takes a long time to start"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/823612 >

  I believe that the general consensus is to remove all the seller WIA drivers, reboot, then reinstall them using the manufacturer.  It could be that you ended up with an incompatible mix of drivers, perhaps due to an update.

• Satellite Pro U400-130 - Conexant and 'Stereo Mix' in question

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro U400-130 (downgraded from Vista to XP) with the Conexant High Definition SmartAudio 221 "audio card" installed.

  Although this seems to support HD audio, I can't find any option to use or activate the "Stereo Mix" option in the Windows console. I tried a few settings to registry and some different drivers, but so far, the option remained absent.

  I know this forum and other comments on the net that Conexant audio cards do not support the stereo mix, but I was wondering if someone could confirm that this is certainly the case for SmartAudio 221?

  Similarly, anyone know of another method to record the sound 'as heard' on the computer? So Far, the options appear to be a) buy an external sound card, or b) connect the plug headphone mini-jack on the mic with a cable jack.

  After using a p3500 old Portege of 8 quite happy with this function (actually pretty basic), it is very disappointing to find that this card cannot support it.

  See you soon,.
  Select this option.

  > I can't find any option to use or activate the "Stereo Mix" option in the Windows mixer
  > I know this forum and other reviews on the net that the Conexant sound cards may not support stereo > Mix, but I was wondering if anyone could confirm this is certainly the case for SmartAudio 221?

  I can confirm this because I have a laptop (NOT from Toshiba one) that was equipped with the Conexant audio chip and the other laptop (Toshiba Satellite a series has) that supports the Realtek audio chip.

  The machine with Realtek audio chip contains stereo mix and the other non-Toshiba unit that supports the audio chip Conexant does not support the stereo mix

  As far as I know the update of the driver won't help you because it looks like a hardware limitation of chip Conexant!

  However, thanks for the info about the Virtual Audio Cable tool.
  I think I'll try it next time

  Are you sure that the display driver is the reason for this?
  And what do you think average or it crashes? East - the laptop completely freezes or just the game?

  I never heard of the game 9Dragons but searching the site of the factory for an update or patch.

  You have installed the latest audio driver you can find on the Toshiba site?
  What's your Windows up-to-date with all Service Packs and patches?

• Satellite Pro: Good question - there is no available active mixer device

  When I start my computer, the sound card works fine. I click on the volume control and it works.

  In a few minutes, he cut. I click on volume control and get a pop-up message:

  "There are no active mixer devices. To install mixer devices, go to control panel, click Printers and other devices, and then click Add Hardware. This program will be closed. ""OK "".

  I downloaded the Realtek drivers (it's pilots did not update so that they are the original ones) and reinstalled them. I tried RealPlayer, WMP, QuckTime.

  I tried to live with it, but it's really annoying me now.

  Anyone has any ideas, please?

  Thanks for reading :)

  Hello

  Strange could you please check if the "Windows Audio" service has been disabled.
  Go to RUN and type "services.msc", scroll down to "Windows Audio" and make sure it is running and/or standing on "automatic".

  This service should always runs.

  You can also try to remove the sound card and after restarting again the OS notebooks should recognize the card even once.

• Journ.e Touch - need USB drivers

  Can you give me a link to download the USB drivers for toshiba journ.e touch?

  Hi mate

  I think you mixed up something tactile E travel is a plug-and-play device and there is no need of USB drivers.

  You can use a USB cable (available separately) to connect your DAY. E TOUCH to a computer for the file transfer.

  1. when the JOURN. E TOUCH is on, insert one end of the USB cable into the mini USB port on your DAY. E TOUCH.

  2. Insert the other end of the USB cable into the USB port on the computer.

  3. the screen connect to PC is displayed on your DAY. E TOUCH.

  4. once the connection is ready, the computer will recognize the DAY. E TOUCH as a mass storage, displayed as "JourneTouch" in your computer.
  Now you can start transferring files between the computer and the JOURN. E TOUCH.

  5. double-click on "JourneTouch" in your computer. Records music, photos and videos appear under "JourneTouch".
  -In the Photo folder, you will find the records Picasa and Flickr, if you use these applications to upload photos.

  6. you can copy files from or to your DAY. E TOUCH.

  * NOTE *.
  You can access the files in the internal memory of your DAY. E TOUCH from the computer. You can't access the files in the inserted SD card or USB to the computer.

• Satellite A100-998: mono/stereo mix not available under Vista

  Windows Vista and the Microsoft default value "High definition Audio Device" driver (automatically selected and installed by Setup of Vista), no recording device is listed with the exception of the Microphone, Line In, CD Audio, as in this screenshot of the A100-998 in question:
  http://img230.imageshack.us/img230/1981/a100998jp6.PNG

  No new Mix or record Waveout options of the device, which means that you can not, for example, doesn't record audio stream on the Internet. I tried the latest drivers from Realtek HD Audio for Vista (30/11/2006 R1.52). No change. Is there a way/driver to enable this as in other Windows Vista machines.

  Is also the audio material in the A100-998 "Vista Premium Ready" with the specifications set out in the http://www.optimalsound.net/?

  It's the third disappointment. The first two were that he has not delivered with the announced NVIDIA GF7400 (came to the square with 7300) and the second is that the hard drive is 4200 RPM (instead of the advertised 5400).
  The third issue is the audio issue detailed above.

  Here is a solution I found, but it is not free (costs $US28.20) and requires users to manually switch the "playback devices" each time that they execute it:
  http://www.NCH.com.au/SoundTap/index.html
  Unlike other programs like Audacity which are based on the Waveout/Mono/Stereo Mix as their sound source (and so do not work in this case), NCH SoundTap installs its own virtual driver and is therefore able to record everything you hear through your speakers in Windows Vista without the need for Waveout/Mono/Stereo Mix. "All the sound elements are"typed"by a pilot virtual directly in the kernel, so the process is perfect digital quality."

  However, it would be better that Vista Realtek/Toshiba/Microsoft "High definition Audio Device" driver is updated to include the Waveout/Mono/Stereo Mix (under "recording devices"), so that programs that rely on it are broken. SoundTap can do on Vista means that it is not a hardware limitation.

  PS new Vista sound effects as Loudness equalization, Room Correction, Bass Management and Virtual Surround are already supported in the current drivers Vista (the driver from Realtek v1.52 and that by default by Microsoft) in Satellite A100-998.

• Satellite A100: audio stream recorder requires that called the stereo mix

  Try to use a workflow program audio recorder/converter, but it requires what is called "stereo mix". The toshiba only a100 doesn't seem to have this? Help?
  I have tried downloading drivers latest Tosh site for Realtek sound card, but it has not made a difference.

  Hello

  First of all, Toshiba has designed different models Satellite A100. You should put a portable name exactly.
  Second, what do you do exactly?
  Called the stereo mix is unfortunately not a very expressive information.

  As far as I know on some units of the A100, the sound effect Manager realtek HD is installed.
  Here you can choose different settings and audio control inputs and outputs.
  Toshiba virtual sound is also pre-installed on the A100. Here, you can set the parameters for a surround sound.
  By the way; all applications that you can find in the control panel.

• Re: Weird sound coming from USB using the Panel mixing Audio on Satellite C870-1EX

  Hello!

  So, my sister has Satellite C870-1EX and she uses new Audio Mixer with integrated sound card sends its via USB cable to the computer (computer recognises as external audio device and map). It's the device: http://alesis.com/multimix8usbfx.

  A few weeks ago, she began to notice a very odd sound, sort of high-pitched, whistling, like a very fast electronic beep. Something similar to what good old modems of the internet when they were connected to the phone line, just not a little faster and strong.

  First of all, of course, we tested every single setting on the Audio Mixer Panel.
  Then, we got new USB cable and it traded.

  After that we also took down all the material, checked all cables, if necessary, detangle swapped the power supply, check a different recording software, even tried a few other recording devices USB etc etc.

  None of this has helped. The drivers are all there too.

  Here's the catch. I used the same equipment with the same settings on my computer and no hissing noise at all. The thing is, any parameter, we tried, only the hiss remains the same, nothing changes.

  Even if you apply a few sound effects which should either accentuate or reduce any type of noise in the signal that is sent to the USB port on the computer, this whistling noise remains the same.

  What worries me is that something is wrong with the material of my sister's laptop.

  The noise does not appear if we use, for example, microphone that uses 3, 5mm taken or the built-in microphone of the laptop during the recording of the commands in the same session with the same software and similar settings (given some must be different because of the different entry).

  However, the noise is if we use an external USB recording equipment on any of its ports.

  Windows on his laptop were resettled some time ago (now it is on Windows 7), but the problem appeared a few weeks later.
  As I said earlier, the drivers are all there and to date as well.

  So, I hope that one of you will return with a software sollution (single)... and I hope we will not need to take his computer back to the shop.

  However, as it seems now, the last is more likely to occur.
  Please, tell me I'm wrong :)

  Thank you!

  Hello

  One of my friends had a similar problem with a DJ controller: Traktor Kontrol S4
  There was not a sound, but he noticed a few dropouts stuttering and audio.

  The problem was the background processes that were open when you use the controller.
  To resolve this problem, it was necessary to disable all possible devices in the device as WLan, LAN, Bluetooth Manager, etc.
  In addition, he had to Disable Antivirus software and firewall that was running in the background.

  I put t know if it helps you, but I think that its worth a try

  Another idea: try to reduce the performance of the processor. This is possible in the Windows 7 power management.
  How to manage Windows 7 power management features
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD12017W0001R01.htm

  Option CPU power management contains the option called the Maximum processor state
  Here you can set it to 90% - 80%

• Satellite M60-135: no function Sound Mixer level controls to "CD player".

  Hallo,

  On my Satellite M60-135 (Toshiba original Setup) Windows XP Sound Mixer shows a slider of level setting for the drive but it doesn t work.
  I can drag the level control or may mark the mute control for CD player, but it has no effect.

  I tried to disable digital playback in the device driver for the DVD-RAM device but it doesn't change anything on the level control.

  Is this a general problem of the Satellite M60, is a specific defect of my M60 or can it be fixed by updating all the drivers?

  Thank you for any suspicion.

  Wolfgang Nohl

  Hello, Wolfgang

  Believe me that this is not a problem or any kind of fault. As you know CD players used on desktop computers have audio out port. This level control Configurator will be used just for them. Portable CD or DVD player has this audio separated on the port and that this option cannot be used. The same situation is on my Tecra M1.

  In addition, it is a tool of Microsoft and Toshiba has no influence on it. As you know there is no OS designed only for laptops and this option is that it can not be used.

  Good luck and have lots of fun with your M60. It's a great unit!

• Satellite A100 - recording control - no Mono mix or stereo

  Hello

  I have this RealTek Audio Drivers installed in my laptop and when I go to check the registration, it has only 'Volume of the CD', 'Mic Volume' and 'Volume line' available. I know if I need to record sound directly from my laptop without using the microphone, I need "Mix-Mono" or "Stereo Mix" in my control recording, but I have this two components. How can I add these two things. I hope that I clarify my issues here. We hope to get solutions here. Thank you very much! =)

• Satellite L650 - 12 p - alternative driver for stereo mix

  Hello

  I wonder if someone could help me. I have just purchsed this beautiful laptop toshiba which I'm genrally very satisfied but just one thing, I want to see what is missing and it is a function of stereo mix because I want to play music through my sound card, but I can't find this feature in the registration of parameter which leads me to believe the current driver does not support this feature.

  I would like to know if someone has maybe found another driver that supports this feature or any other thanyou workaround for reading.

  Hi sam0056,

  To be honest I n don't know what you're talking about...
  You want to listen to music on headphones or external speakers? If so, you just connect external speakers. The internal speakers will be cut automatically.

  Otherwise new drivers, you can download from the official page of Toshiba.

• Satellite L300: Update the graphics drivers Intel Vista

  Hello, a few days before had been developed new drivers for GMA X 3100.
  I downloaded on the Intel site, but I can't install it.

  I found a driver for this card graph on the Toshiba site, but the drivers were too old (September 2008).

  Why not the Toshiba L series are updated?

  Hello

  The graphics card drivers on the Toshiba driver page are the latest Toshiba drivers that are available for this graphics card.
  Don t mix drivers Intel of origin with the drivers from Toshiba!
  There is a difference!

  Intel driver don t support the overheating protection, but make the Toshiba drivers!

  Of course, you can install Intel drivers using another method. You can install the drivers from Device Manager and could point to the place where the Intel driver was stored on the HARD drive.

  But note; This Intel driver is not certified by Toshiba and you can ONLY use it at your OWN risk.
