• Satellite A100-253 - question on the display, the sound and LAN drivers

  After getting a fresh installation (windows XP) on my Satellite A100-253, I thought that I needed the latest drivers. Apperently the drivers from the Toshiba site are obsolete or do any work.
  Here are my problems:

  -Display drivers is not installed at all. Instead, I installed the Catalyst drivers from another site but the resolution will not go higher then 1280 * 800, where my screen works better @ 1280 * 1024. Where can I get decent display drivers so I can put a normal resolution?
  -J' downloaded audio drivers on the Toshiba site but the sound is worse then it was. Where can I get the best drivers?
  -LAN (no WIFI) drivers on the Toshiba site seem to only have a uninstall.exe. Where can I get for my local network actual installation files?

  Thanks for the help in advance.

  Hello!

  1. drivers you can get on the site of Toshiba or live production.
  Where did you download the drivers?
  Maybe a BIOS update will solve the problem.

  2. it of the same as point 1; Toshiba or directly to manufacturing.
  But don t forget a notebook is not an entertainment system, and if you want high quality sound you need external speakers.

  3. this package contains the actual installation files, but you must install them manually. This may make you in the device, right click on LAN card Manager and update the driver.

  Good bye

• Satellite A100-906: Express player media use the reinstallation of the operating system

  Hello

  I use a Toshiba Satellite A100-906. I did NOT know about what express Media Player recovery cd's and I've never used it. But now I want to know what's the point of use.

  In any case I had to format my laptop and I have used the recovery cd. So now I've read that if I want to run the express media player I must first of all, insert the express media player cd stop button of my laptop and then use cd/dvd to start it.

  The problem is that I find in win xp with a Windows Media Player. Something go wrong with the format (using the recovery cd)? I had to first install the express media player? and then format and reinstall xp?

  If that's the problem, I, at this stage, to be able to install express media player without losing my data? I expect an answer. I hope you'll forgive my ignorance :).

  Best regards
  Harris

  P.S. when I boot from the media player recovery cd express I get three options 1) crash installation 2) uninstall 3) delete all partitions. So did I express media player installed?

  Hello

  So you're a bit confused. Am I wrong?
  If you want to start the Express media player you n t need to insert the CD of express media player!
  Express media player must be installed on the HARD drive!

  You have recovered the laptop with your recovery CD Toshiba but didn't install the Express media player since the EMP CD!
  This is false.

  Usually the Media Express Recovery CD drive must be run before performing the recovery from the recovery DVD-ROM products.
  Cannot install the Express media player after using the Toshiba Recovery CD!

  So first to run the CD of Express media player and then run the restore CD!

  If you wish, you can consult this useful document of Toshiba providing education

• Satellite A100-920 - Audio driver problem - Win XP Pro

  Hi all

  I'm having a problem with audio driver. I can't seem to find one that works anywhere, I looked at several forums and the Toshiba site for drivers without success. I basically hit a wall, so I hope someone can provide a working solution. :)

  Audio device:
  Feature: 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller
  Manufacturer: Intel

  (Information retrieved using a Ubuntu 9.04 Live CD)

  Although a windows system it labels as "Realtek High Definition Audio Controller"? (I'm not an expert with the drivers, so maybe this is a stupid question...) :)

  The computer is a Toshiba Satellite A100-920 (PSAA9E) Windows XP Professional.

  I spent hours trying to solve this problem, so I hope this is the last mile. :) Thanks to anyone with suggestions.

  Best regards
  Alan

  You use Windows XP Home with SP2 or SP3?

• Satellite A100-803 - Vista recovery problem

  Hello

  I upgraded the RAM and HDD on a Satellite A100-803 and when I restore Windows Vista from the recovery disk process is going very well, but after restarting windows says that "Windows Setup could not set up Windows on this s material.

  I think that the problem is listed here.
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2466753/en-us.

  But the problem is that I can't change the RAID setting in the BIOS, and during the installation of recovery, I'm not able to add the additional drivers needed.
  The new drive is a WD 500 GB driver (WD5000BPVT)

  How can I solve this problem?
  Thanks in advance
  Pau

  Hello

  First I put t think its BIOS problem.
  The laptop doesn't support RAID.

  I think the problem is the size of your new HARD drive. Upgrade of the disk HARD 500 GB and its larger than the original HARD drive equipped in A100.

  The point is that a recovery disk automatically creates the partitions on the HARD disk, but due to the size of the disk HARD the size of the partitions would be different also.
  I think that you won't have the same problems to install Vista or Win 7 using the Microsoft disk

• Satellite A100-206 supervisor password problem

  Hello

  We have a Satellite A100-206 at the office.

  A colleague trying to protect the laptop set the user password in the bios.
  I do not exactly know what she does but at startup is asked for a password.

  Then she ask me to remove the password so I typed the password, management of the bios and clear the user password.
  But it is, I also noticed that the supervisor password was already defined but not selectable (gray color).

  In any case, I've saved and restart.
  The problem is that now the OS start without asking for a password, but I can't enter the bios because it asks for a password and is not that of the colleague don't forget to have it fixed.

  Why can't I get more into the bios of th as a user?
  I also find the hwsetup in windows re set the password of the user as shown in the manual, but this software is not present.

  Best regards
  Diego

  Hello

  I put t know which operating system you have, but I think that Akuma is right. If you start HWsetup you can also access the BIOS using this tool and remove or set a supervisor password.

  You can remove the password in HWsetup?

• Satellite A100-225 - charging battery problem

  Hi people,

  My Satellite A100-225 can't hold the charge when running. If I use processor heavy applications, the battery will drain in about half an hour and recharge only when the cover is closed (standby mode) or the laptop is turned off.

  When the exhausted battery and the laptop turns off, I have to remove the battery, press the on/off switch, replace the battery, then let it charge for a while before I can use it again.

  The laptop will power any if I remove the battery and the runoff of current alternative.

  I tried a spare battery, but exactly the same thing happens.
  I also updated the Bios with the latest version (6).
  Laptop runs Windows XP Home Edition.
  Laptop is out of warranty.

  Anyone have any ideas?

  See you soon
  Steve

  Looks like a hardware problem. I mean, if your battery runs out when the machine is connected to the pit of the wall adapter (this is what I did not understand), so something in the subsystem of your laptop power goes down.

  Have you ever sent the machine to a partner of service authorized or is the machine still under warranty?

• Satellite A100-495: strange starting problems & freezes

  Hey guys.

  I recently got my Satellite A100-495 back from repair - it had a power problem (no led was flashing and it does not start of course). They told me that the motherboard has been renewed.

  Now, I have the following two issues:

  (1) it freezes suddenly sometimes in windows after 1-2 hours of operation without problems and I have to hold the power button for a few seconds restart

  (2) I press the power on button, LEDS are underway but the screen remains black, sometimes becomes gray, hard drive makes noise, fans going on but it just does not start, do not show anything. After some tests, I have to start but once again crashes after a couple hours of functioning properly.

  Can someone tell me what is the problem here?

  Bad memory (RAM) can cause this.

  If you can get it to start, test the memory with Memtest on a bootable CD. www.memtest.org

  Otherwise, try the combination of the different memory card. If you have 2 sticks of memory, try with one stick, then try the other stick, try different locations.
  Often the memory pins can oxidize and cause problems. To clean the pins, use a pencil eraser/rubber and rub the pins of module memory.
  Be careful when you handle the memory, you can zap easily memory with static electricity. To make sure that you are connected to the earth when the memory handling.

• Satellite A100 heating and fan problem

  Hello

  I will try to describe my problem in detail because I so hope that it might help!

  I have a 5 years A100-011, Nvidia 7600 Go satellite. Recently, I fixed a display problem that I used to, however, this time (two weeks ago) him comes from the computer laptop back from the workshop with this heating problem. Which is the first time! The problem is the fan.

  When I start the PC, the fan works like it ti be long, maximum for 3-4 seconds. After that the fan barely works! According to me, the air coming out but very very low! less than how it is used for years! I came back to the same place, I corrected the PC. They checked and claim his fine and work! So, I give it a shot and tried the PC.

  Unconsciously, there is problem. Because the temperature of the GPU that has the problem, idling about reaching 60 c (SpeedFan) and goes high (65-67) while surfing the net! And using this way too much for internet!

  What makes it even worst fan always at the same speed very slow! The speed can increase little when he reached 67c!

  In this way, I can not use any high performance program, because the PC becomes more heated then stop.

  Note: I tried the following:
  1-BIOS (latest version) no available fan control
  2 power settings does nothing and there is no option of cooling method
  3 - fan control software. Unfortunately, nothing has worked

  I don't really know what the problem is! Given that the fan works but not all the time and why the GPU gets hot without doing something really serious! What is a cleaning problem? If so, why the fan does not reach its maximum speed at this temperature. !

  I hope I am fine help and answer here!
  PLS help!
  Thank you

  I agree with the user Notepad Akuma is 5 years old and I think that there is a lot of dust and debris inside the cooling modules that prevent fans from running correctly.
  Air can circulate properly and therefore the temperature rises
  So what to do?

  You can use a jet of compressed air to remove dust from the fans that I'm doing this regularly and it helps to clean the fans
