No noise in Equium A100

• Need a new fan of cooling for my old Equium A100-207

  Hi, I need a replacement fan for my Equium A100-207
  It started making a loud humming noise - it has only started to do today but has not let up since it was started.

  I took my laptop apart to see if I could sort by cleaning and fiddling with the fan, it has certainly had an effect - not as noisy or come all too often after shoveling a load of dust compacted, but noise is such that I can't really use it somewhere else than at home and only with headphones or high and loud music to muffle the noise can certainly go near a library with her!

  So I know how to replace ok, but no where can I buy a fan in the United Kingdom saw 2nd hand those on ebay, but don't touch them - could well be as bad! Another of those that I have seen that I can't be sure if they are the correct model, I put my laptop together again (typing this top).

  Ideally, I would like to purchase via Amazon that I have some good for here, but anywhere selling the good or one that will be enough is more than welcome. Or a way to sort the loud hum another that disable the fan altogether!

  Really appreciate all the help busy sending work so applications need to use my laptop for this and for job search.

  Thanks in advance.
  Mike.

  Hi Mike

  With laptops are quite complicated to find new hardware. Desktop you can find everywhere, but for laptops, it's quite complicated so you must try to find an online store where you can order parts of equipment for mobile units.

  As far as I know Amazon doesn't sell these parts.
  Best source for this is eBay. I bought several hardware components for my books there.

  By the way: do you have anything like thisneed?

• Equium A100-147 - sound devices do not work correctly

  I've owned an Equium A100-147 for only less than a year.

  The problem I have is that if I put pressure on the area around the left speaker (where is the VGA port) there is a substantial "cracking" / rattling noise. The right does not exhibit this problem.

  The other day with a same case design (model Satellite A), I got another PC Toshiba laptop and it seems to have a slightly stiffer construction quality.

  Is it worth getting it checked under warranty while I still have the warranty? Or am I just too picky?

  See you soon

  Interestingly enough, why you support on the area around the speakers. As far as I know the speakers are placed between the keyboard and display and keyboard there is no pressure to the speakers. Very strange method to test the functionality of the laptop! ;)

  In any case, you should contact the service because the speaker should be placed and fixed correctly.

• Rattling Equium A100-007

  I have an Equium A100-007 (there don't seem to be many positions directly related to this model) that I bought in April 2007. I'm running Ubuntu 7.10, which normally works very well. But, sometimes, I'm a clock strange clicking sound coming under the keyboard near the upper right speaker, when this happens, the system freezes and the only way I can back to work is to turn it off with the switch.

  I have not found something strange in the system logs and my sessions of firefox (and others) restorable after reboot without problem. It happens more or less at random, but is perhaps more likely when I download something, or watch a dvd, but it seems not directly related to have many applications running. It's happened a couple of times a week lately (but I have my laptop on almost all day every day), even if it has occurred previously. The temp runs between 45 - 51º C... I think it's a little warmer than before.

  I can't find anything on this problem in any thread. And I don't know if it's a hardware or OS problem.
  I would be very grateful for any advice on troubleshooting or resolution of this problem.

  It is not easy to say what the problem may be here on this forum, we can only speculate on the possible reasons for this. Try to do some tests to see what this trigger occurs. Try to play MP3 and see if the click comes from speaker directly (without optical drive running).

  Also try DVD movie playback, but without the sound to see if this clicking noise has something to do with optical drive running. Sorry, but it's really not easy to say what can be the problem. You can also ask for professional help and contact the nearest authorized service.

• Equium A100-337: poor performance Vista - should I upgrade to XP?

  I have a brand new Equium A100-337, which came with Vista as standard.

  No games work correctly (yes I tried the emulator). The noise is terrible and DVDs are almost inaudible. The firewall stops or crashes constantly. Now, I get the message that Toshiba flash cards do not work - I don't even know what they are!

  Is this normal?
  Installing XP would solve my problems?

  Hello

  What is a RAM upgrade. In line with this model of laptop comes with 512 MB of RAM. Very interesting, is that this graphics card is shared and use RAM for graphics operations. I imagine that the performance is not one that suits.

  This model laptop can handle with 4 GB of RAM and I recommend you increase the RAM with 1 extra GB module.

  I'm sure that the performance will be much better. 512 MB for me is certainly not enough. It is the same with Windows XP Home edition when the unit only has 256 MB of RAM.

  Good bye

• Equium A100-027: Audible 'slip' in his o/p when the SRS is enabled

  For users who use Band-In-A-Box, I found the accentuation of the sound (SRS) creates unacceptable noise (almost a "" hissing) when you use BB - and is especially noticeable at the intro to songs.
  Rendering of songs produce the same symptoms and I found that it is better to disable SRS on the Equium A100 027.
  The problem is not limited to the BB, but I noticed more in this application.

  Hello

  I don t use a Band-In-A-Box applications, but maybe this software isn't 100% compatible with Vista and the SRS service.
  Maybe the guys at support BB could provide more details and information

• The speakers click when the fan starts and stops Equium A100-147

  I recently bought the 100-147 satellite and noticed that a click comes from the speakers (or headphones or external speakers) when the fan starts up and even when the fan stops. Sometimes it s quite remarkable, other times not so remarkable.

  Everyone can hear that click? If it's normal, I can live with that, otherwise I will return it for repair. Any comment please?

  In addition, it seems slow at startup and shut down. Put into service takes 2 minutes and 35 seconds, and stop to 33 seconds. Is this normal bearing in mind, it is running MCE? I have loaded additional software such as Itunes, Nero, Office 2000, Photoshop 5.0 etc.

  Thank you for reading.

  Clicking noise when the fan starts or stops turning is not uncommon. On my satellite a similar sound will appear when the fans begin to turn or the HARD disk starts to spin.
  Then worry about don t, I think its OK.

  The start-up procedure can take several times when a lot of applications and software to load at the beginning. Equium A100 seems to be one of the newer laptops, and I assume that different applications Toshiba load at the beginning.
  Also an Antivirus applications could extend the startup procedure.

  You might try testing something. Disable the antivirus of loading at the beginning and check if the laptop will start faster.

  It s even with stops. All background processes that are run in the context of the operating system should be closed until the laptop shuts down completely.

• Where is the recovery for Equium A100 disc?

  My laptop has completely screwed up and I was going to do a full reinstall by using the restore disk provided when I bought my laptop. However, I can't find anywhere and I was wondering if there is anyway that I can get a replacement?

  I have an Equium A100 running on Windows XP. I bought it in November 2006 PC world.

  Any ideas greatly appreciated.

  You can order the necessary recovery discs with the service provider authorized in your country.

  On the page of European support of Toshiba, you link to the global database of ASP where you could choose the nearest ASP.

• Upgrading RAM and HDD on Equium A100-027

  Hello

  I have an Equim A100-027 and I already upgraded the two 512 MB to 2 GB 2 memory chips which is the maximum I can get?

  I've also already installed a hard drive over a 350GB one, but I'm looking to install a high - what is the maximum size that I could install? I guess that there must be a limit, but I was hoping that 750 GB to 1 TB would be OK.

  I appreciate all the answers - thanks in advance.

  Hello

  I'm afraid that 2 GB RAM ist the value of memory as possible which is supported by Equium A100-027 Mr. I have this chipset limitation.

  Upgrading the HARD drive must be possible from the controller SATA isn't limited to a certain size.
  That's why I think that 750Go should be possible

  Please share the news with us after finishing these updates.

• Equium A100-063 - keyboard is not recognized

  Hi all

  I have a Toshiba Equium A100-063 (PSAAQE-00G006IT).
  The keyboard does not work, the usb keyboard does not work even in the bios.
  I disassembled the PC and unplugged the keyboard but does not work (even in bios).
  I formatted the PC and even the on-screen keyboard does not make me see the letters on the buttons.
  I searched on all sites of the Toshiba driver or bios update for this but found nothing.

  Can you help me?

  It is not easy getting started with comments. As you know on this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is here.
  If the keyboard does not work you must replace it with a new one.

  When you say that the keyboard is not recognized even in the BIOS doesn't mean that the keyboard is not recognized in Windows?
  External keyboard is connected with a USB cable?

• Equium A100-147 would not start

  Equium A100-147 would not start. Only the lights next to the CapsLock F10 F11 keys are on. When the switch is pushed the lights disappear back only after about 15 seconds.

  Help, please.

  Disconnect the power adapter and remove the battery. After doing this press the power for 30 seconds. Wait a few moments, connect the power adapter only and try to start your laptop.

  What happens when you do this?

• Re: Need to WXP for Equium A100 ethernet controller

  I reloaded Xp which solved a problem of sound. Now, I can't connect to internet because I don't have the driver for ethernet controller. I spent several hours trying to find this driver but my search always ends up in a dead end.

  Toshiba does not list the driver on the download page, and I don't know what to do. Any ideas guys?

  There are three models of Equium A100. Please post model number short and we can check it for you.
  Otherwise, check out the download page of Toshiba on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp and I m you can find here.

• Re: Very bad sound on Equium A100

  Hello. I have an Equium A100 with sound problems. The best I can describe it, but it sounds like a Dalek.
  I am running Xp pro. I uninstalled and re installed the driver several times in the hope that would sort, but that did not work.
  Anyone got any ideas?

  Thanks in advance.

  Before starting to discuss your problem please post what model of laptop you have exactly (A100-xxx) and what operating system you use.

  By the way: this A100 is old enough and, if I m remembering well, some of them were shipped with Windows XP Media Center Edition. I assume that with original preinstalled OS sound must be OK. Can you confirm this?

  Try to clean the laser lens with a cotton ball and alcohol tip.
  In my case it helped to solve a similar problem with an optical disk drive.

  But be careful when doing this!

• Equium A100 - 02L PSAAQE - cannot find drivers

  Trying to find drivers for Equium A100 - 02L (PSAAQE-00P00KAV) on behalf of a friend.
  To be honest, who does not much chance of finding any where in or on websites of Toshiba!

  Reported problem is the error message indicating "igfx display driver recovered" to appear. Suspect that the problem lies with the graphic display so driver trying to find the latest version for this laptop. * If someone can tell me exact link so I can download I be grateful.*

  I personally can't find something for Equium A100 Series. All Toshiba seems to recognize A300 etc. I tried making via the serial number (47247514 (Q), but this is not also recognized by Toshiba. I know mobile is discontinued, but would be drivers expected to be for her.

  Here is the link for the driver page
