  Having a little trouble with my Equium a100-147.
  Tried a recovery from disk and I got up to 75% and recovery stopped.
  Taken to a computer shop to get it fixed and they couldn't do anything because they do not have a disc of recovery in good condition.

  Is there anywhere I can download the image to a different computer, put it on a dvd and restart from that one?

• Equium A100-147 - including modules of RAM to upgrade?

  Hello

  I think to upgrade the RAM on my Equium A100-147 and I was wondering what kind of RAM I should get and what is the maximum amount of RAM supported?

  It has a processor clocked at 1.6 GHz centrino duo t2050 if that's any help? I looked on the toshiba site and they sell only 1 GB of supported modules, but in other places I've seen people say that it can take more?

  Thank you

  Hi mate,

  The maximum RAM capacity depends on your chipset you have. From Toshiba Web site displays a maximum capacity of 4 GB of RAM, but don t forget, you need an OS to use the full capacity of 64-bit. Otherwise, you are only able to use about 3 GB.

  You can buy all the modules you want to, but I made good experiences with the Kingston modules. Kingston memory research shows the compatible modules for your laptop:

• Equium A100-147: replaced Fan part number

  Hello

  I have an Equium A100 147 which is now out of warranty.
  I need to be able to find and of course spare part number where I can buy one of these ASAP.

  If someone could help me with this, it would be quite apprieciated.

  Thank you

  You can not ONLY buy the fan. The fan is a part of the cooling module and the entire module cooling must be replaced.

  You need a cooling module that has been designed especially for this series of laptop and I know ASP (certified partner) in your country should be able to help.

  I think guys should be able to order this part compatible directly from the warehouse of Toshiba.

  Then call the guy and ask for help!

• Equium A100-147: can not play games becauce slow DVD player

  Hello

  I have a laptop Equium A100-147. I tried many games on my laptop which should conform to the specifications required for example battlefield 2, however, these games does not work and I didn't know why. I then realized that all the games I tried were all on 4 DVD-ROM drive demanding x, and the specifications I provided with my laptop did not specify what kind of DVD player, I had another super multi layer or something.

  It is while I tried the games that were demanding CD-ROM which all worked fine, I then tried a game that was 2 x DVD ROM demanding that worked apart from a small problem with models of characters not displayed, so I took back defective. Then I tried a 1 x DVD-ROM game that worked perfectly.

  Today, I decided to get my DVD specifications, where I found that my laptop should read 8 x DVD - ROM drives.
  So my question is, is my defective DVD player for not playing more than 1 x DVD - ROM games? And can I contact Toshiba or my provider for repair or replacement or my problem would be something else?

  Thank you, Josh

  Hello

  As far as I know the laptop was delivered with the drive UJ - 841S and the drive supports 8 x DVD-ROM.
  Of course, there must be something wrong if the drive cannot read DVD-ROM media at full speed. The middle is not supported or the drive malfunctions

  What you can do is search for the update of the firmware. Many laptops come with the same drive. See the categories of driver and, possibly, there is a new update of the firmware.

  You can also try to remove the physical drive from the laptop and reboot the device without the drive. Then turn off the appliance, install the drive again and the boot upward.
  The laptop must initialize the firmware again and maybe this will help

  But it seems you notebook is not very old and the warranty is valid. If you need to contact the ASP in your country for more details and possibly for disc replacement

• Equium A100-147: cannot install Vista because of startup configuration problem

  Equium A100-147 (Windows MCE) bought compatible Vista and bought my promised copy of Vista... used Toshiba step by step DVD ROM upgrade and also updated the Bios.

  Tried to load Vista Home Premium and after going through all the steps, it came with this message...
  «Could not update the computer startup configuration - installation cannot go ahead «...»»

  How should I proceed and what is useful to load Vista.
  Thanks in advance for any help.
  Considers that Howard.

  Hello

  How have you tried to install vista on the laptop?
  Have you tried to switch the MCE to Vista or were you running the new clean install of Vista?

  In my opinion, you must perform a clean installation. Don t updated the existing MCE of Vista.
  In such cases, you can join different installation problems

  If you are an owner of an original MS windows XP CD try to run the console of your windows XP CD recovery.
  Demarrer start from the CD at startup, and then press R to access the recovery console after loading the driver.

  In the recovery console, typefixbootand then restart your laptop.
  Then insert your Vista installation and restart.

  This should solve your problem.

• Equium A100-147 replacement hard drive

  Hello

  I got a toshiba Equium A100-147 by a friend. The only problem is that it comes without a hard drive, because he still destroyed his old hdd to protect its personal and professional data.

  I saw in a local computer store a disk sata hard very good price for only? Â £38 it's a 160 GB w Digital Scorpio 5400 RPM 8 MB Cache S - ATA HDD laptop someone knows if it will work or this laptop does it work-specific hdd?

  Looking forward to any help you guys can give

  Hello

  Of course you need a compatible HARD drive.
  There are two different standards of HARD drive. SATA and IDE

  You need the HARD drive with the SATA interface. I think the original HARD drive was 100 GB.
  So a 120 GB and maybe a 160 GB SATA HDD should also be compatible.

  As far as I know the HARD drive slot was placed at the bottom of the unit and a screw secures the plastic cover.
  It of really not difficult to replace the HARD drive and I think that the details could be found in the user manual.

  Good bye

• Equium A100-147 doesn't boot up - no display on screen

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Equium A100-147. When I turn, I see as the light of the maximum but there is no display on the screen.
  I read on a previous thread on a similar model that this has been fixed by resetting the computer.
  I understand there is a possibility that there is a problem with the motherboard, but I remain optimistic that a manual-reset would work.

  Is someone can you please tell me how this can be done?

  You can try this procedure simple and short;

  -Remove the battery from the laptop
  -disconnect 3rd external devices and adapter
  -leave the laptop for about 20-30 min
  -then reconnect battery and AC adapter

  If the portable fuel after this procedure, then your have a serious hardware problem and only the ASP can help you.

  I don t want to make a statement on the possible faults, because it of always hard to say what's wrong exactly, but it looks a bit like a motherboard problem.

• Equium A100-147 - Native resolution on the external LCD display does not work

  Hello

  My Equium A100-147 has 1 VGA and 1 S-Video output, so I use the VGA output on an external LCD monitor with a native resolution of 1680x1050@60hz, but integrated graphics Intel 945 card doesn t give me the correct resolution to choose for this monitor, the closest is 1600 x 1200 and some weird widescreen resolutions other that make my monitor see the scaling an ugly picture.

  So I tested another external monitor with a native resolution of 1920 x 1200 resolution closest gave me Intel drivers is 1920 x 1080, even the installation of two drivers of monitors, remove and reinstall the driver and same formatting the machine and reinstall everything from scratch gave no different results.

  I have another laptop MSI Wind with the same graphic card built in and the same version of the pilot, and the laptop detects both the monitor and the good resolutions for them, this isn't a problem of Monitor driver.

  Seems to me that is a problem with the S-video output, which makes this mess, but there is no way to disable it in the BIOS or any other place in Device Manager I still seem.

  Can someone give me some advice for what can do?
  Thank you!

  Hello

  You cannot choose the preferred resolution because the graphics chip does not support this external resolution or the installed graphics driver is not contained in this resolution. The two cases are possible.

  If you want to know if your graphic chip supports this resolution and then take a look at the user manual and check it.

  If the chip of the graphics card would support this resolution and you will not be able to choose, then that would mean that the graphics driver does not support this resolution.

  But first he must find out what external resolutions are supported by the GPU.
