No sound on Toshiba laptop with XP Home

I recently reinstalled XP Home Edition on a laptop Toshiba Satellite A55-S326.  Everything works great except that I have no sound.  In Device Manager, it shows that Realtek AC97 needs drivers installed/updated to date.  Whenever I try to do that, it happens almost at the end, I get a BSOD but not long enough to read, then the computer restarts.  I worked on this problem for the 3rd day now.  Nothing seems to help.

Hi Gcarterh,

You can try to perform the updates of windows and are looking for the latest audio drivers.

You can read the following article and check.

  • the touchpad on my toshiba laptop with windows vista is disable and I don't know who to make it work again

    the touchpad on my toshiba laptop with windows vista is disable, and I don't know who to make it work again.

    Hello

    Toshiba has also map of keys which allow easy adjustment of the TouchPad. See support for Toshiba
    and Forums. The key shortcut for the TouchPad, if they are responsible in the Fn + F9 or see the key card
    So usually loaded at the top of the screen.

    There is also usually a TouchPad control utility that loads in the Notification area next to the clock
    at the bottom right.

    Toshiba downloads - access your model.
    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/home.jsp?NAV=download

    Toshiba forums - good source of info from others who have the same system or similar
    http://laptopforums.Toshiba.com/

    Check with the manufacturer of system support, documentation in line, or forums as there probably
    are shortcut keys that enable and disable the touchpad functions.

    Also check the control - Mouse - touchpad settings panel.

    You can also try this:

    Panel of configuration manager devices - mouse and pointing devices - Double click on the touch pad-
    The driver tab - click on Update Driver (which is may not make anything like MS is far behind certifying)
    (drivers), now right CLICK on the touchpad and UNINSTALL.

    Then go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers except the category itself (all in).
    RESET

    This will refresh the driver for the TouchPad and battery USB. This does not prevent the touchpad
    of work.

    Here is the similar procedure in XP, Vista is the same, except that we need to clear the specific
    device if present.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310575

    Then go to the website of the manufacturer of system (Toshiba downloads - access your model - listed above)
    and get the latest touchpad drivers.

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put it-click on - RUN AS ADMIN.

    I hope this helps.

  • I have a laptop with Vista Home Premium installed. My plan is to install Win 7 and then move on to Win 10.

    Original title: Vista to Win 7 to win 10

    I have a laptop with Vista Home Premium installed.  My plan is to install Win 7 and then move on to Win 10.  I have a new full version of Windows 7 Pro SP1 with an activation key.  I have experience update to Win 10 of Win 7, but worry about the installation of Win 7 over Vista.  I guess I have to do a clean install.  There is no problem to meet the minimum requirements of 10.  Can someone give me some advice on the start-up of the conversion of Win 7?  Just insert the disk?  Everything has been backed up and it's ready to go!  Thank you.

    Since the family migration to Windows Vista Premium to Windows 7 Professional it will install a clean place, why not simply use your Windows 7 Professional product key to perform a custom Windows 10 Pro install from the go?

    I don't see the need to bother installing Windows 7 Professional.

    Hi, I just bought a PC C50 toshiba laptop with windows 10. Is not not a geek, I would like to ask if someone can tell me

    If it is easy to remove 10 OS and restarting the laptop with my windows disc windows 7, the reason why I want to do is

    because I have aready have a desk top running 7, but it is to the top at the moment and could use the laptop backup

    You must ask your win-10 computer make this question

    They would have made drivers for this machine for win - 7

    Your only option is to return it and ask for a unit that has win 7 drivers.

  • I have a Toshiba laptop with Windows 7 Professional 64 bit installed and would like to change to Windows 7 32 bit. How can I do this?

    I have a Toshiba laptop with Windows 7 Professional 64 bit installed and would like to change to Windows 7 32 bit.  How can I do this?

    Original title: Harold

    Usually this is impossible on computers with Windows 7.  In almost all cases, you need to go to the store, buy Windows 7 32-bit and use the CD to install it on your computer.  This also requires the deletion of your system, you will need to reinstall all your programs and settings.

  • How to reinstall Vista on PC Toshiba laptop with new hard drive?

    Hard drive from my Toshiba laptop of sisters died as well as its internal fan and she asked me to fix it, well I got a new hard drive and replaced the dead with a new internal fan and works perfectly fine with a Linux Live CD. However, she had previously Vista Home Premium installed on it, and there was no installation CD, just 2 recovery discs. Now, I was wondering where I could get an iso image of vista UNACTIVATED so I can use his legitimate product for her key. (I also have a week to achieve and I repair to other computers as well, which are not a problem, so time is of the essence)

    Also, I have no money and can't afford to get a Best Buy installation CD, as the operating system has already been installed on the laptop/OEM computer. If that would be legal so getting an online and burning a black CD and use it to get Vista on this new hard drive of his?

    In addition, I know how to install its drivers, and upgrade from SP1 to SP2 via Windows Update Manager, all I need is a vista installation CD Home premium to get his computer upward and execution of how she wants to.

    There are 2 microsoft dvd vista a 32-bit and one for 64-bit operating system

    most of the computers unless asked when bought normally come with the version of vista 32 bit

  • Cloning of Toshiba laptops with sysprep

    Hello

    We have a lot of different brands and models of laptops and have a sysprep image that we use for all of them and so far had no other problem that have to update the drivers after the laptop has been photographed.

    That is until we started to buy Toshiba laptops!

    After that we photographed the laptop it blue screens with either

    PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA

    Stop: 0 x 00000050 (0xF0000223, 0 x 0, 00000002 00000000, 0x806BAF76)

    or a

    STOP 0x0000007B

    Even after the repair of the image it blue screens.

    So far, we had to build a new image for each laptop model Toshiba and then image.

    Any ideas on how I can get my sysprep image to work?

    Hi crystalreef,

    Hmm different laptops have different hardware, so I don't think you can use a single image for all mobile phones. Each computer or laptop model requires the image clean s with own drivers and isn't compatible with other models.

    You can install Windows Toshiba Recovery disk?

  • Toshiba laptops with ACPI error during the installation of Windows Vista Beta 2

    Many people including myself try to run Windows Vista along side XP on our Toshiba laptops, so that we can feel comfortable when buying vista. We expect no assistance phone premium. We would just like to know what the problem and hopefully provide technical information so Toshiba that would help their preperation for when Toshiba laptops are sold with Vista and hopefully solve this problem.

    Please people who want to try it either could leave a message on this forum or you can also find a group of enthusiasts to:
    Microsoft.public.Windows.Vista.hardware_devices under the heading of Tosh Satellite.

    We have so far put a lot of time and effort to gather all the information we have so far and would like to get to the bottom of this issue.

    Hello

    I don't know what you expect.
    The name of the Vista says it all: Vista Beta 2 version - this is a beta version. It is not official on the market with many bugs.
    Perhaps his works on desktop computers, but as you know laptops are different.
    I think that we must wait for a version of the end and the drivers of Toshiba.
    So you can be sure that this OS is supported and work properly on your laptop

  • I want to buy Toshiba laptop with Ubuntu and windows

    I want to buy a new laptop.
    I don't want to pay 300 quid for yet another stupid Windows (if they are just a version properly, people don't need to keep buying new... oh wait... they make more money...).

    Others don't offer laptops with Ubuntu (and not windows).

    I find myself here, and Toshiba appear also does not provide laptops without windows.
    Why? Why Toshiba offer laptops with pre-installed Ubuntu with no windows?

    I use Ubuntu for 3 years, and altogether, he transformed my daily calculation. No more bloody virus, not 5 minutes log-ins/closures, no more program - crashing down the entire system. It is faster, safer, more flexible and * free *.

    But because Toshiba do not appear to offer it, they can't get my habit (I'm in Ireland, so Toshiba options open to me may be different in other countries).

    Hello

    First of all it s a forum from user to user and you get no response from Toshiba here in the forum.

    But as much as I know that Toshiba laptops are not delivered with the distributions Linux.
    Of course, you can install Linux if you want, but laptops are delivered with the Windows operating system. As far as I know with win 7 64 bit and 32 bit OS.

  • What is a cheapest Toshiba laptop with PXE in the Bios with the XP support

    I am a reseller of Toshiba.
    A client asked me this question, and I was hoping someone here could help me answer:

    > What is the cheapest Toshiba laptop which has PXE in the bios with XPP?

    Customer is downgraded to XPP, looking for a low cost which will always start LAN laptop. Good that now they buy the L300 and indicated they are not PXE bios. Any ideas to what series of portable Tosh they must migrate?

    Thank you
    -Alan

    Hello

    PXE means that you might be able to boot from a local network.
    AFAIK all laptop Toshiba supports this option.

    But most laptops are pre-installed with Win Vista and delivered with Win Vista.
    Some professional laptops come with a second disc that allows to downgrade the laptop to Win XP.
    But these professional laptops are not cheap.

  • Can I use another PC Toshiba laptop with DVD/CD to install the software on NB200?

    I'll keep with Toshiba and just got a laptop - NB200 - 11 H. Can I use the DVD/CD on another PC reader Toshiba laptop to connect with the new book of loading the software on CD? I have access to a series of Satellite P35 and a much older Satellite S2800-500.
    Thank you very much for the thoughts and ideas - it seems exaggerated to buy an external DVD/CD drive.
    Kind regards
    Laurie

    Yes! On the laptop with DVD/CD player 'Right click' on the DVD drive in "My Computer" and go to the properties and enable sharing. Make sure your 2 computers are on the same network. On the NB200 in the 'My Computer' in address bar type \\yourcomputersname(the one with the dvd), and then open the folder called example. "D" assuming that your dvd drive is the D drive.

    Hope this has helped.

  • Acer Aspire laptop with Vista Home Basic Edition does not, System Restore does not, sfc, find corrupt files but do not repair. Need help!

    Hi, I have an Acer laptop Aspire with Vista Home Basic Edition that came pre-installed, so no records only the disk hard drive partition.

    I turned on my laptop today and it starts but the loading bar of stalls at the black screen with "(c) Microsoft Corporation" and dragging green. The slide bar will continue to drag, but nothing else happens which means that I understand even as much as the login screen. I rebooted and tried Windows recovery, but the only remedy to what he suggests is a restoration of the system, which does not have any point, I try to restore it.

    To remedy this, I have connected in safe mode and ran the SFC command prompt. It scans my system and told to find corrupted files, but he can't heal some. This is where my knowledge limit runs out. I don't know how to fix the files that the SFC cannot. (Also I created a journal using the findstr command prompt and checked but it say anywhere that it was unable to fix it so I'm not even sure how to identify corrupted files)

    As it's an Acer laptop, Aspire I'll try their eRecovery tool to return my computer to factory settings, but it won't work in safe mode, and as I said I can not connect normally. I tried alt and F10 at the initial boot screen when I turn on, it loads the windows files and shows the Acer "Please wait a moment" screen and then nothing happens again.

    I can't afford to get it fixed, and there is no chance I can get a new laptop. Any ideas/help? Thank you.
