• Satellite Pro A200 failing to connect with iphone via wifi hotspot

  My apologies if I get some of the jargon wrong, but I'm pretty useless when you want IT emits.

  I have a Satellite Pro A200 and had problems connecting to various wifi connections.
  The computer could see the wifi connection and connect to it, but I wasn't able to connect to the internet.

  The question of the Office was arranged by our IT support guy (security settings on the new router we too complex for my PC or something like that), but he has not been able to solve the problem of not being able to connect to my iphone to use the 'hotspot' via the wifi function.

  Someone there knows a way to solve this, or is it a simple fact of the laptop is too old and really need to update?

  Thanks for any help that anyone is able to give.

  > Someone know a way to fix this or is it a simple fact of the laptop is too old and really need to update?

  This isn't a question of the age of the laptop
  As far as I know not that support all mobile operators
  You should first ask your mobile operator if you can use the tethering service.

  If this would be supported in my mobile operator, then connect the iphone to the laptop first
  So that you have two options: you can use the BT connection (in this case check if computer laptop also supports BT) or via a USB cable that came with the iPhone.

  (PS: as far I know to attach is supported by iOS3.0 and higher)

  After that the iphone was connected to the laptop, you must activate the tethering on iphone.
  Under settings of-> network, you should see the option internet tethering it must be enabled.
  Now you should be able to see that in the Network & Center sharing control panel.

• Satellite Pro A200 - shows only 3 GB instead of 4 GB of RAM

  Hello

  2 years ago I had a Satellite Pro A200 as a professional laptop and it works with XP SP2, later with SP3. With 2 GB, it shows 2 GB memory in Windows - and I know it's a Radeon 7500 with 256 MB memory graphics individual, and there is no shared memory.

  I upgraded to 4 GB, but Windows shows exactly 3 GB. BIOS shows 4 GB and ATI system monitor shows 4 GB. I know that 4 GB is not possible under XP 32-bit, only on Windows 2003 R2 32 bit or Vista - but on desktop systems, I've seen values between 3.3 and 3.7 GB.

  So, where's the memory? It looks like a bug - the chips of memory have two 2 GB I checked this. Because it's a company laptop I can not just switch to 64-bit XP :-(

  There's no option in the BIOS - first I thought that it is the graphics card, but mine has independent graphics with own memory so that the computer comes up with MB 2048 or 4096 after the upgrade.

  Shared memory would show about 1900 MB of RAM for the operating system as my private EEEpc.

  Hi shadowmaster_1,

  > I know that 4 GB is not possible under XP 32 bit
  Then why do you ask this question here if you already know? Moreover, it s not a limitation in XP, it s a material limitation on all 32-bit systems

  > only on Windows 2003 R2 32 bit or Vista
  And who says that Windows 2003 or Vista can use 4 GB? Okay, there's an update for Vista where 4 GB correct displayed in system properties, but that doesn't make no difference. Vista 32 bit peut t use all of 4GB, it s only cosmetic improvements! ;)

  > So where is memory?
  Memory is installed on your computer, but can t be used complelty with a 32 bit OS.

  At the end of the story: If you want to use 4 GB, you need to install a 64 bit OS. On all the 32 bit OS, you can use only upward to ~3.2GB RAM!

• Satellite Pro A200: There's a problem with my screen

  Hi all

  I wonder if anyone can help. Just got a Toshiba Satellite Pro A200, when I cleaned the screen, I noticed that in the Middle at the top (the part under the webcam) pushes a little and squeaks. It's not normal, I'm wrong?

  Help, please!
  Thanks in advance,
  David

  It's not easy to tell if it of normal or not in most of the cases the ASP must check the notebook and then the technician could decide if a part needs to be replaced

  I recommend you contact the ASP in your country and ask for details as well as a control of the laptop.

  Good luck

• Fanspeed went the Satellite Pro A200

  Hallo,

  the fan speed increases after bios update. I'm not the only one, but all others have the same problem or not? The fan runs every 30 seconds of high level, too strong. In addition, I went outside and again, the fan works every 30 seconds. SpeedFan said that two hearts are on 10 C. So why does the fan work? After checking the toshiba power management, I changed battery. But this view has not helped. The fan runs again every 30 seconds, but the fan speed does not detect a fun Temperation. The two nuclei of 30 c to surf and send. And another fact is that I want to use carrots for 2 GHz and not 800 Mhz (utility). Change cooling EIB defragmentation method and the intel utlity says 800 Mhz to 2 GHz! It seems that the method liminized toshiba carrots at 800 Mhz?

  If there is a chance to roll back the bios, please help me. Or if there is a guy from toshiba, so please tell the BIOS programmers! In addition, my olders toshibas allowes to control the speed of the fan by the bios or software (fanspeed), why does'nt the satellite pro A200? The fan is too strong tension and the offset of the Temperation is at bottom.

  Please another you experiences, even, you have no solution for the problem.

  Bye - Daniel

• Problems of the product on the Satellite Pro A200 recovery

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro A200. She runs very slowly and sometimes it crashes when I connect.
  Also the homepage was hacked and I tried several anti-spyware and they did not work.

  I have the product recovery disc, but the problem the DVD rom drive stopped working.
  The light is on, but it will not open unless you use the manual unlocking.
  I removed and checked the connections, but it seems okay.

  The CD-ROM/DVD-rom has disappeared from the Device Manager and does not come under the material.
  I tried the system restore, but it won't work.

  Is there anyway that you can use the product recovery software if you start from a USB?

  I tried to restart the computer and choose boot from CD, but it won't give me this option.
  I looked in the bios and only boot options it gives are hard disk, CD rom, land and FDD

  > Is there anyway that you can use the product recovery software if you start from a USB?

  No, this Toshiba recovery disc cannot be copied to USB flash memory and used for installing the OS. I'm afraid that it would work not m.

  But if you have a Microsoft Windows CD, you should be able to create a USB bootable flash stick. In internet, you will find lots of useful instructions step by step how create this bootable USB key.

  But boot from USB flash memory stick must be definitely possible since the BIOS supports bootable devices on:
  Drive floppy USB, HDD, ODD, Network (LAN), USB memory

• [Satellite Pro A200] - slow when problems of transfer and the warmth of the data.

  Hi people.

  I have a 1.5 years old Toshiba Satellite Pro A200 with 200 GB HARD drive standard. For some time, his behavior is just... weird.

  Sometimes the system slows down. She behaves just slow, it freezes frequently for a second when simple tasks such as entering the text. It; s busiest during intensive data transfers (e.g. copy files via FTP from my copy of the USB or LAN), but sometimes it happens even when no application other than Firefox does. It is not apparent, so I wonder - service it will take in terms of warranty (which means - is there a probability that you will say that everything is perfect and charge me for it?)
  The computer was once on the repair under warranty, they replaced the HARD drive with another. Is it possible that the other has problems as well (check S.M.A.R.T. discovers nothing). Or is it maybe faulty SATA controller?

  Another thing is the temperature. During the normal work (Internet, MS Word) two hearts runs at 60 * C. When the set temperature may exceed 90 * C and the computer sometimes shuts down. I guess the problem is dust accumulated inside the laptop but I do not see how can I clean.

  Go to the service of this kind of problems?

  Virus scanners can slow a system down considerably, what antivirus do you use?

  If you have a lot of programs installed, perhaps its time to back up your data and reinstall Windows. I do it myself every year since Windows tends to become bloated and slow after a while.

  With respect to the dust, you can Sauté using a can of compressed Air sprayed through the main entrance of air (when the system is off).
  Or if dust is really bad, you will need to send it to a Service provider authorized to do so and cleaned disassembled.

• Satellite Pro A200 - 26 minutes of normal time remaining?

  Hi all

  My laptop Satellite Pro A200 is a little over 1.5 years (or young: P) and I have a huge problem with the battery - it only lasts for a total of _26 minutes_ under "high performace" mode in Vista - other modes the power increase time to 5-7 minutes.

  I've tweated the system configuration for:
  -too few programs running at startup;
  d ' use as little memory in what concerns the graphics (as in the disabled vista themes and operations "fantasies" show window contents while dragging).
  -stay on the low light.

  The programs that run at startup are my anti virus (F-Secure) and ATI catalyst control.

  I also cleaned the registry conflicts and scan for viruses regularly.

  I used Ubuntu on this laptop as well and the battery life is not that much better, which leads me to the conclusion that the battery comes to an end.

  I was wondering if this duration of battery life (26 minutes max on high performace) is normal for a laptop after only 1.5 years? * (I don't remember how long it has lasted when I first bought).

  Also, I have a laptop from other manufacturer of 2 years and its battery lasts a minimum of 4 hours (on Windows XP).
  The two laptop batteries are 6 cells.

  Any suggestions on how to improve my battery life?

  Thanks in advance.

  > Satellite Pro A200 laptop computer is a little over 1.5 years and I have a huge problem with the battery - it only lasts for a total of 26 minutes in "high performace" mode in Vista

  Battery working time depends on different factors:

  If parts of different hardware such as CPU, GPU, HDD, ODD, display perform better performance then dramatically decreases your battery work time
  In addition, if you lose a stronger battery (9 or 12 cells cell) then you should be abele run Notepad a lot more time using the battery power.
  In addition, the battery loses the own performance systematically and after a long period of use, you will need to replace the battery.

  However, if you wish, you can check the Vista Power Options to increase the working time of battery:
  Here's a nice article:

  How to manage Windows Vista power management features
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD84026Q0000R01.htm

  But in the worst case you will need a new, stronger battery

• Satellite Pro A200 - baterry does not load

  I have a new Toshiba Satellite Pro A200 lappy for about three months, the purchase of the France. Everything was OK until now, when loading baterry remains at 50% and wants to pay more.

  Anyone can have an ideea about this strange?

  Hello

  My first idea is a dysfunction of the accumulator.
  The problem described sounds like something wrong with the battery

  So what to do?  :|

  The battery is covered under warranty for 12 months. So a replacement has to be done for free.
  Contact the service provider allowed in your country and ask for verification of the battery.

  Maybe guys will send you a new battery immediately for a check.
  Then don t waste time and call the ASP.

  Good luck

• Two problems with my Satellite Pro A200

  Hello

  I just bought a laptop Satellite Pro A200 of lamia with windows Vista.
  I found I can't connect to the internet or install hardware such as cameras or printers. The installation of the system software, but the actual hardware does not work. at first, I thought that it was not compatible, but I wonder if USB ports work correctly supposed that no matter what I connect to the top, cameras, printers, mp3 pc can't find the element even if it is automatically install advice?

  Also, I am trying to connect this pc to my existing internet connection on a desktop computer. Any advice on how to do it because nothing seems to work. Cable and wireless and the laptop has an internal modem.
  Thank you

  Indeed some older hardware options are not compatible with Vista. But if the 3rd party software supports Vista will not be problem using these devices.
  You know that Vista is a new OS and Microsoft releases patches and fixes regularly very important.

  I noticed this last fix that resolves to many USB issued under Vista:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/941600/en-us

  I recommend the update to the Vista from time to time to fix some bugs in the OS

  As you say your laptop is capable WLan so why you n t use the Wlan?

• The mouse no longer works on Satellite Pro A200-1F9 (on Windows and Linux)

  Hello. Suddenly, my USB mouse doesn't work on my satellite pro A200-1F9 laptop. I had this same problem on my Linux (Ubuntu Feisty) for the last week or two, but today was the first time that the mouse no longer works in Windows. Ideas for what's gone wrong? (If I boot Linux with the attached mouse, I get an error message when loading upward.) The mouse does not work it is logged at startup or I plug it later).

  Under Windows and Linux, the laptop still recognizes my external HD which also has a USB connection...

  Thanks, Shoko.

  In my opinion, you should test the USB feature. If you are 100% sure that the USB ports are working well check your mouse or try to use the other.

  Laptop mouse pad still works?

• Satellite Pro A200: Recovery using a ghost network boot disk

  Hi all

  Need to ghost several satellite pro a200 machines using a ghost network boot disk. When I use disk ghost provided by the ghost boot Wizard and no boot on PC back I get the message 'No Fast Ethernet PCI Adapter Found!' Serious internal error! (hardware works fine under XP/Vista)

  I tried to boot from CD, Mem Stick and USB floppy with the drivers of toshiba and realtek without success, research on google seem to point to there needing to be a driver to interface with the cardbus / PCMCIA adapter - if it IS the case can anyone shed light on the fate of a pilot and how I could continue on this?

• Satellite Pro A200-PSAE4E - WLan speed falls steadily

  Hello

  Anyone know what is causing my laptop to lose wifi on a regular basis? It's a Satellite Pro A200-PSAE4E running on XP. I bought the new laptop in February and it came with Vista loaded but the wifi kept stalling and was Advisor to swap to XP, because it was more stable.

  When wifi is filed, the WiFi connection icon disappears completely from the sys tray as if it never existed even if the wifi witness just under the lower edge remains lit. Research in the network connection in Control Panel of the wifi is not listed.
  I have to shut down the laptop and restart so that I can continue to work online.

  I downloaded the latest driver for the Atheros AR5007EG and I rang Toshiba support.

  Someone at - it ideas - I am disappointed by the performance of the WLan.

  Hello

  Usually this problem could be solved in BIOS and WLan driver update!
  A friend of mine had a similar problem and after that driver WLan will update the WiFi connection is stable.

  Good bye
