Need suggestions Satellite A205-S5841 and Satellite A300-1EC

Hello

I need to hear now, I have a Toshiba Satellite A205 - S5841 what Dual Core 1.73 GHz.
I intend to buy the Toshiba Satellite A300-1EC, which is Core 2 Duo 2.0 Ghz...

Tell me is interesting?

Its your choice. The A200 is too slow with the Applications that you use? Do you need to improve 3D performance? Photoshop takes too long to process the images?

The A300 would have a faster graphics chip, faster memory, more fast/more big HDD, better connectivity, perhaps more memory, more features, grunt a little more CPU.

Take a look at the specifications in the Brochure and decide if elements or the quicker features you would enjoy. My friend has an A300 with facial recognition (and FM radio I think!), its quite a good machine :)

  • Can I back up my files on the partition of 'E' of my Satellite A300-1EC

    I bought a new laptop Satellite A300-1EC.
    I managed to complete the full installation of the system.

    When I check my drive I don't find that two drives 'C' and 'E '.
    Drive C is for the operating system, and 'E' is the data with a record HDD1 disk.

    Now if I want to save my normal files like in word, excel etc... that is the drive to back up my files.

    Savings in 'E' will affect the operation of computers.

    best regards to all

    Hello

    I assume that the E partition contains data that are necessary to start the Toshiba HDD recover.

    I think you could save your files on the partition E too, but you shouldn't change t or t should remove all the files and data that already exist on the E partition.

  • What is the difference between the Satellite A300-1EC & Satellite A300-1EG

    Why does the Satellite A300-1EC more expensive stand as Satellite A300-1EG, but configuration loses him?

    What is their substantial distinction in?
    What model of laptop may indicate, in this price range?

    Hello

    Satellite A300-1EC belongs to the Group PSAG0E and Satellite A300-1EC to PSAG4E. When this model numbers are different, it means that they do not have the same hardware configuration.

    The first has Intel graphics controller 965GM (Crestline). The second is M82XT ATI (256 MB). The capacity of the HARD disk is not the same. The first a 160 GB HDD and secondly a 250 GB.

    So that's the difference between these notebooks of the A300.

    In my view, the other is better. You have to make your decision and choose the right one.

  • Satellite A300-1EC cannot load the OS and restart just /shuts down

    Can you help me with my problem of A300 PSAG0Elaptop.

    This is the case:
    before that I can still use my laptop normally without plugging the power cord but when plug the source ca the unit restarts all of a sudden. I charge the battery only when the unit is off. And now the worst case gets when I installed the recovery disk hoping would solve the problem. I can no longer load the operating system; It's just loading then it does not load and suddenly shuts down and sometimes simply frozen. I have not tried the safe mode, mode ahci, system recovery, system repair, and stil no chance.
    I brought this already at the center of ASP service and they demanded almost 1 unit brand new laptop for repair of my laptop is not advisable to send them to repair.
    I doubt that my system bios is not compatible with my vista Home premium OS, or perhaps my wife update of the bios that is not compatible in windows update. My current bios I checked is 1.4

    Given that I have no option instead of junking my laptop, I want to update or back to the original settings of the bios that can help to repair my device.
    Can you help me on how to update or revert to the original my system bios? As I can't access the windows can you teach me step by step using the usb port of my camera on system bios update? Or do you have any suggestions?

    Need help bad
    Here are the specs of my unit
    A300-1EC
    P / N:PSAG0E - 02J025AR
    Windows vista Home premium core 2 duo T5750

    Hey Buddy,

    First of all, the BIOS can only be updated Windows System. There is no other version that you can download on the site Web of Toshiba.

    But I doubt that this problem is caused by the BIOS. It s I knew not that it is possible to change certain values which make impossible Windows installation. With other words BIOS is secure and with all the settings, it should be possible to install Windows.
    An alternative you can press F9 in BIOS to load the default settings. That would be the best option.

    But according to your assignment, if Windows installation of recovery disc doesn t work and you are not able to charge the battery while the laptop is turned on it seems to be a hardware malfunction because seriously it has nothing to do with the software.

    So either come you into contact with the ASP to get the repaired device or you can repair yourself with original spare parts with parts ASP or second-hand on eBay or similar platforms.
    Of course, you can buy a new laptop: in case the motherboard would be defective because the motherboard is very expensive spare part, it would be the best choice in my opinion.

    Connect the HARD drive before you turn on your laptop. Then turn on your notebook and press F12 to access the start menu.

  • Re: How to get '@' key - Satellite A300-1EC

    Hi all

    How to use '@' key on the keyboard?
    When I use shift + 2 key, @ is not displayed.

    Which are the keys to use to get @.

    Best regards

    Mathew

    Hello

    I think you the problem is related to a bad keyboard language setting.
    It seems that your keyboard type does not match the language setting in Control Panel-> regional & language Options control

    Maybe you use an English * UK * available instead of English * U.S. *.

    Try to change that and check if it helps.

    Hi andre.bo,

    You may notice the same problem on an external monitor? I had a similar problem, but after I tried an external monitor, I noticed, it was related only to the internal display and not the graphics card.
    Check this box!

    In addition, you can get all the spare parts Toshiba from an authorized service provider and guys can fix this problem too! :)

  • Strange problem with ODD on Satellite A300

    I have a TOSHIBA SATELLITE A300-1EC, since a few days.

    Whenever I try to open a DVD or CD in the DVD drive, the disc is ejected.
    Please let me know the possible reasons. I have to approach the seller for repair because it is covered by the warranty or is der the possible ways I can try myself to use the CD / DVD-ROM, I mean as in checking the drivers etc.*

    Best regards Mathew

    Maybe you should offer the best explanation.

    Which player do you use?
    What happens when you put the DVD movie in the DVD player and close it?
    Usually, you should get the option to choose the player and after you click OK and film should start.
    You have any problem with original CD music and DVD movies or perhaps some self-made media?

    1 Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and the .NET Framework 3.5 Family Update (KB951847) x 86 - I can't install this for the last two months. Whenever it appears that the installation has failed.

    2 security Update for Windows Vista (KB961501) can be installed as well

    3. my Internet Explorer 8 does not work for the past two weeks. I tried to download it and when I did, then, my computer does not restart. I had to use sans-echec Mode, uninstall IE8 to return to Normal Mode

    4. I also tried to download and install SP2 for Vista, but it failed.

    I am very worried. Please suggest me what I should do.

    Thanks for your help.

    I think that the decision of the antivirus program is a personal opinion

    I put t like McAfee and Norton because they need a lot of system resources and do a slower computer.
    I prefer AntiVir and Kaspersky Security suite. The two programs have good scan engine and don t need a lot of system resources. They are easy to use to use it.
    AntiVir is free but it s just an antivirus. Kaspersky Security suite also contains a firewall, antispam filter and more.

    It s your choice what program you are using. ;)
