No sound on P100-188 on Vista or Linux platforms

Sound only works on the XP library. I tried Ubuntu, SuSE, Mepis, Linux, Vista, zabaglione, with modifications, PC but no joy :-(

Running Ubuntu 7.04

Step by step help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello

so, which system you want to use? Linux? Vista?

In addition, how you tried to activate its "Linux"? Do you know which audio chipset is in your machine? If so, how have you tried to activate it? With alsa or OSS or compile directly into the kernel?

A little information would be REALLY useful because no one can pull anything off your information/description that you gave.

Be more specific and give some feedback
See you soon

  • Comment for Satellite P100-188 owners looking to buy Creative Audigy 2 ZS sound card

    I just bought a Creative Audigy 2 ZS sound card, which is excellent, much better than the piece of bad quality (in my opinion) of material that accompanies it. But I thought I'd find out other buyers from the perspective of this card that it heats up a fair bit. The problem is that the only warm place on the P100-188 (for me) was under the left Palm (maybe the graphics card is placed here) everywhere else was fine, the problem is that the PCMCIA socket is also in the same area, so when the sound card is used for heat in this area is considerably increased makes it uncomfortable typing for a while. I'm not too concerned, as I bought it mainly for games, and (for once) being left handed means that according to the means of the mouse will not rest my hand on the hot zone, but a right handed the person using the keys WASDX or similar for steering in FPS games the accumulation of heat in this area could be a problem.

    I just thought I'd let people know this potential on the side for another great product.

    Hello

    Thanks for your review. It s great know the advances and the disadvantages on each laptop.
    One of my notebooks is a Satellite A50 laptop and it also has a cooling fans that on the left side. For me its doesn't matter because I have a Mr. right-handed: D
    However, my other laptop support the fan on the right side and it's a little awkward for me but is no reason for me to not use this laptop.

  • Satalite P100-188: Sound Volume low quality and no energy saving.

    Hello
    I already owned the Satalite P30 - 110 and found the sound quality very good - so I chose to upgrade to the P100-188 as a logical step but at a higher price.

    I found that the quality of the sound on the P100-188 is far below and even quieter and more slender, almost seems like a cheap passive speakers for PC but stronger together.

    Is it likely that my new laptop is down or is it a normal question on the new model?
    If this is a normal problem, I regret the purchase as its is important to me.
    The Power Saver utility that I liked in the P30 is also omitted from the P100. Can you please tell me if Toshiba intend publishes a software update to provide what I want to leave the laptop running in different operating modes depending on how I want to use it for example (downloads, etc).

    Also how to adjust the brightness of the screen? It was a feature in the TPS Toshiba Power Saver.

    Hello

    As far as I know the Toshiba Power saver is installed on many laptops Toshiba, but not on everything!
    It seems that the Satellite P100-188 was delivered without the Toshiba power saver.
    In this case, Windows power management control power options.
    You can define and save also different eating patterns in the Windows power options.

    On the sound: it's not easy to tell if it s a normal question.
    First of all I recommend to check sound and audio devices and make sure that the volume is set at a higher level.

  • Satellite P100-188: where to find the Power Saver & Virtual Surround Sound

    Hello

    We know when or if Toshiba will allow us to download these utilities compatible with cell phones series P100-188? I've very disappointed with the sound quality compared to my satellite M45 I replaced this P100-188 (PSP3AE).

    I still don't see these utilities on the list tailored to this particular type of laptops. Can someone help me please?
    Thank you and Merry Christmas John

    Well, as far as I know some units of the P series are delivered without the energy saving and the virtual sound.
    I don t know why, but I guess that it s a kind of policy
    However, I don t think that Toshiba will design and develop the tools if the laptop has been delivered without these features.

    I remember from one of my friends bought a unit in a series of P a long time ago and this laptop has not also been bundled with Toshiba power saver.
    He had to use Windows power options instead of the energy saver.

  • Tips on sound crackling on the P100-188

    Hello

    If you have a P100-188 and meet crackles with the sounds of alert windows (you can check this by opening the sound volume on the taskbar and adjustment button continuously clicking on the volume), and to a lesser extent with music and other applications, it can be interesting to contact Toshiba. I sent an email to the technical service of Toshiba to [email protected] explaining the problem that I had and wonder they were aware of it, as one or two other people have experienced the same symptoms. They sent an email back asking me to contact the Toshiba global support on 0870 066 0191 Center to get more help and technical advice. On this operation a support assistant asked me to reinstall the audio drivers, I did without success, the crackling sound was always apparent, so I am now waiting for the mail to contact me to send my laptop in for repair of.

    The noise problem was not bad and I contacted only Toshiba in order to know if they were aware of the problem and working on a solution, thinking it was driver related as it occurred when using the speakers and headphones. Now it seems that it is hardware related and only repaired by heart open syrgery.

    I hope this helps other P100-188 owners with the same problem.

    I tried to upgrade the Bios and audio drivers but still no sound.

    I have a P100-454 with Vista.

    Hello

    You said that you have installed the Vista still have you used the Toshiba Recovery DVD?
    If Yes, then the sound must be available, because the Toshiba disk contains all the necessary drivers!

    Satellite P100-454 belongs to the PSPADE series.
    It s a European series of notebook and the drivers are placed on the page of Toshiba Europe.
    There's a Conexant 4.8.0.0.12.14 audio driver
    Have you used this driver?

  • Re: Satellite P100-194 PSP6AE sound does not work under Vista 32 bit

    Hello world

    I got a nice Satellite P100 and configure Vista for a friend. I don't have the CD that came with the computer, so I installed those on the Toshiba site. I found out later that there is a proposed order of installations, and there is no chipset driver for Vista, so I used the XP one.
    As far as I got, everything works fine but the laptop remains silent. There is no sound from the speakers at all. Windows says it all was going well and there is a level moving in the sound mixer, but he remains silent.

    Does anyone have an idea what I could check or change? I would be very happy!

    Thanks in advance,
    Markus

    From my point of view, there is a hardware malfunction.
    Why? Because the sound through headphones. Therefore, it is not a software/driver problem.

    But what you could do is to check the audio playback device by default:
    Go to control panel of-> sound-> the Read tab
    Here the speakers should be peripheral activated and chosen as a default value.

  • Satellite P100-188 starts after the upgrade of the wireless network card

    I recenty installed a new Intel 5100 Series 512AN_MWW Mini PCI NIC in my Satellite P100 - 188 PSPA3E database.
    However, when it is installed, he refused to view and start.

    I'm sure (read the technical info) that these cards use the same interface.
    So why it won't work?
    Is an update of the BIOS to enable a feature. If so, could someone kludge one together please?

    I have the latest version of the BIOS installed 4.70 and am running Windows Vista.
    I am desperate for this that I already have a project N AP 2.0 and want to use it to its full capabilities.

    Cheers, Rob

    Hello

    If I understand your message you have improved the Interior card WLan Intel (Golan) Intel 3945ABG 802. 11a / g to Intel 5100 with project support.

    Boyfriend although it seems that you can't use the WLan draft N card in this laptop model.
    Seems such card is not compatible and cause interference.

    As I know the Draft N need of 3-wire antenna the antenna Satellite P100-188 supports 2 wires only and can be used with the 802.11 A, B or G standard.

  • Satellite P100-188: where to get a nVidia sticker?

    Hey everybody. I bought my Satellite P100-188 last Sunday and I must say he realizes a lot in terms of games and General all-around use.

    In any case, inside when you open the lid... I can see on the left, the badge sticker 'Core Duo', higher than is "Vista ready" sticker, but on the extreme right, there is a hack to help nothing stuck on it! If I am not mistaken, the Nvidia badge stickers belongs to this indenting.

    If anyone knows how I can do to get one? I keeps not working machine, but it seems a little weird.

    Thank you

    The first thing I do with a new computer is remove all the hardware popup stickers.
    But, I'm willing to accept offers from potential sponsors for $50 per square centimetre of the surface of "advertising."

  • Don't start by Satellite P100-188 - white screen

    Hi all! I have a PC laptop toshiba satellite p100-188 and I have a problem with it. This morning when I tried to turn it on it didn't work. The fans started the LEDs on, but there is no display. I tried to turn it on with the battery, I have changed the plug, but still the laptop does not start.

    Please someone help me, the laptop isn't even a month and it has barely been used. I even tried to connect the laptop to my desktop screen, but still no display. What can I do to overcome this problem.

  • A few questions on Satellite P100-188

    Hi, I have a few questions about my new machine I bought recently so please bare with me during their reading...

    (1) I already owned the P30-145 and the sound was superb. The P100-188 is supposed to have the HD + sound stronger. I don't think so... This thing is much quieter and more slender compared to my previous machine!

    (2) the Nvidia badge sticker is missing inside! Normally I would not be embarrassed, but there is a small indentation carved especially for her with nothing on it! - and so a strange look.

    (3) in the bios, there is an option to change the amount of "fan noise" makes the machine. I've set it to 'performance', which is the option to forget noise and go full steam ahead. However, the fan harldy lights! Every now and then, he gives a quick 2 second air burst.

    The other day, I was playing the new game 'fear' that works amazingly I would say. But STILL the fan doesn't seem to turn on a large part. I worry a little bit, I must say.

    If anyone has read the lot of this right, thank you. Also could you please answer if you had similar problems with yous P100s.

    Thank you

    Hello

    1. as far as I know this unit P100 speakers are placed under the keyboard.
    On other units, the speakers are placed above the keyboard. If you use the keyboard it of possible you hands cover the speakers. It is also possible that the volume of the speaker is a little lower because of the miniaturization of portable. However, you cannot compare different notebooks series because strains have another advantage than the other series.

    2 I read your first assignment on the missing sticker and I can t believe that such thing is a really a problem for your. I'm don't know if all the P100 was delivered with or without the sticker, but you can contact the dealer where you purchased this device and ask him a label. However, my laptop has not even a sticker, and it's not a problem for me.

    3 if the fan is set to performance so that means that CPU notebooks will run with a full performance, which is possible. In this case the CPU is going to produce a lot of heat and the cooling module must run with maximum performance to cool the CPU and decrease the temperature. If temperature decreases the arrested fan or run with low performance. It is a simple fact.

  • Satellite Pro P100-188: screen keeps blinking on and off at random intervals tension

    If anyone can help me with my computer so please PLEASE publish it because I have no idea of what is happening to her.

    I just bought a new laptop, a Toshiba Satellite Pro P100 - 188 Dual Core and I'm having a problem with it. Sometimes (not all the time) if the computer is plugged in or not, the screen flashes and repeatedly and then will slow down and its suspicious home.

    I have no idea what's wrong with it, I sent it to the store where I bought to be fixed and they just he sent to me, but the problem persisted. They say they have done tests on the machine and can't find anything wrong with it, but if that were the case, then it only would not have messed up again.

    What is just a software problem? The screen seems to flicker on and off at intervals irregular or not I'm in the middle of using it or not. All the drivers are the latest drivers and I admit now that I'm at my wits end.
    Any thoughts, anyone?

    Hello

    This seems very odd. However, you posted that this problem happens sometimes and not all the time.
    In my opinion I n t think that the software could be responsible for this issue.
    Perhaps one loses the connection cable? But believe me; It's not easy to say what's wrong without diagnostic tests.
    You have suggested that you have sent the unit to the store.

    I recommend you contact Toshiba service partner in your country. Technicians must check the laptop.

  • Satellite P100-188-CD/DVD drive disappear when install iTunes

    I have a P100-188 and when I install itunes (ver 7.7.11 I think) my D drive disappeared.
    If I check in the device manager that there is an error in there against the disc.

    The only way I can get back the player must do a system restore.
    Does anyone know the version of iTunes that I have to install to bypass this or the correct driver for the reader?
    The device has a drive HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GMA-4082N installed.

    Thank you very much

    James

    > "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close." The error signature shows that: AppName: itunes.exe Appver:8.0.0.35 Modname: unknown Modver:0.0.0.0 Offset: 00008200.

    I remember one of my friends had a similar question. The error always appears after the new installation of iTunes.
    He called me and I tried different things, I reinstalled the application, clean the OS, etc, but anything :( I was really desperate

    Finally, I decided to reinstall the OS to see if there could be something wrong with the Windows installed. And that was the key of the OS has been confused don t I know why, but after the new OS installation (it was a hard way) worked the iTunes

    If you can first try reinstalling iTunes, then clean the operating system using CCLeaner and then try again.
    If this can't help, then a new install of the OS may be necessary!

  • Satellite P100-188: Upgarded t2400 CPU - t2700

    Hey all,.

    my laptop a Toshiba Satellite P100-188 pspa3e or something, 1.8 duo core centrino t2400 to a yanoh of 2.3 t2700, I disassembled it me equipped with the new processor.

    I've been running it for a week, without any problems with the heat, the fan deos doesn't come not only the last time or anything like that, normal perfectley except faster.

    Anyone do deos I would recommend using the heat of grease on the processor and makesure you wipe off the old grease.

    Can I upgrade my ram too?

    First of all it information great s that you were able to upgrade the processor to a faster, BUT unfortunately; You warranty is no longer valid

    So if something goes wrong turn (in the future), then you will have to pay for the correction!
    If I would be so I wouldn't guarantee

    However, request you the upgrade of RAM?
    Yes, of course it is possible to upgrade the RAM s.

    You can upgrade the RAM to 4 GB max, but I think that is not necessary because the 32-bit Windows will recognize only 3GB due to the limitation of the 32 bit OS!

    Anyway, the compatible modules are: DDR2 667 MHz (PC2-5300) 200 - PIN SODIMM

    CU
