• Re: Satellite A60-106 - deleting characters when you type

  Hi, hoping someone here can help me...

  Toshiba Satellite A60 106 running Windows XP missing characters when I type. If I type very slowly every key works fine. Many letters are removed to normal typing speed. This happens in all applications and does not load. The key repeat rate is also slower that we should (I know how to define it, the problem is not with the setting but with the fact that the setting is not honored or recognized correctly).

  Virus/spyware scanner reports clean. The problem started all of a sudden for no apparent reason and does not seem to be associated with any hardware or software changes. Tried to start in safe mode, try to disable all non-essential progams services started via msconfg but to no avail. problem still there.

  Laptop has historically suffered badly from overheating, but this problem is not related of course it's the same thing that the machine is hot or cold.

  Any ideas?

  Have you installed drivers for a keyboard or an external mouse? (for example, Logitech or Microsoft)

  If you boot into MSDOS, it always falls of characters? You can download a boot BACK on www.bootdisk.com disk

  What BIOS version? You have the latest version?

• No wireless - Satellite A60-106

  Hello
  I model Satellite A60-106, and I was wondering if a wireless connection is enabled on the laptop, because it doesn't seem to work when I go to a WiFi active area.

  Thank you

  Hello Kwana

  I'm not 100% sure but I think that your device has a wireless card. Please check in Device Manager if the wireless adapter is listed under network adapters. If the unit comes with a wireless card on the down side there must be a label of the card wireless with identification of the card.

• Why CD - RW are not recognized on my A60 106

  I got an A60-106, had for about 6 months and still I can't recognize cd - rw which is empty media. It just does not, even if the player according to the manual says he should (uj-811 t).
  Cd - rw discs are fine as I checked in another computer. I have no problem with the cd - r or any other media.
  Can someone shed light on why this is?

  Hi Gordon,.

  Only what you can do is to test with different CD-RW´s. try again with another producer of CD. I had the same problem with a few CDs at low prices-RW´s.

• Satellite A60-106: cannot open Microsoft Office 2003

  I have Satellite A60 - 106 laptop with windows XP Home pre-installed. After the recent failure of windows, I used the toshiba product recovery DVD. I managed to download other software like microsoft following works, note, Norton antivirus on CD. But Microsoft Student and teacher edition 2003 CD does not open in my CD/DVD drive.

  It makes normal CD to access the noice after insertion, but is not accessible. By pressing "run" displays the error as not accessible D:\, i/o device error.
  The same CD (microsoft 2003) opens with other computers.
  So, where's the flaw and how to rectify?

  I tried all sorts of advice through the web.

  Can someone help me please?

  Hello

  For me, it looks like a hardware failure. The error indicates that the drive is not able to read from the Microsoft CD-ROM.
  There must be something wrong with the lens of the drive and therefore the lens cannot read the CD drive is not accessible!
  Maybe after cleaning the lens you can use this CD.

• Satellite A60 - 106 - SHIFT keys do not work

  Hello

  I have a laptop A60-106 Satellie. For some reason or work shift pressed.
  I even reinstalled XP and all the utilities Toshiba etc...
  Any ideas please?

  Antony

  It's really not easy to say what is wrong, but you should test an external keyboard because the keyboard internal or let the shift keys are defective.

  Have you installed your portable computer with the recovery disc or Microsoft? It is important to use the Toshiba Recovery disk to ensure that all the necessary drivers and tools are installed.

• Satellite A60-106: ATI graphics card driver update

  I have a laptop Satellite A60-106 and I was told to update my driver graphics ATI Mobility Radeon 7000 IGP, otherwise I won't be able to view the photos taken from the video.

  I'm unable to locate these updates on the Toshiba site. Nobody knows where and how I can get this update?

  Hello

  I don't know if I understood your question right, but you are not able to look at images from your video camera to Mr. I'm wrong?
  I put t think that the graphics driver has something to do with this action.

  What applications did you use? How did you exactly connected the external device? Did you get any error messages?

  Just for the info: I used last time on my laptop the driver from the Omega.net Web site. But on the Toshiba site I found a news that Toshiba recommended to use only the Toshiba drivers graphics and different drivers, you can install it at your own risk!

• A60-106: is it possible to upgrade the DVD/CD-RW combo

  Hello. Anyone know if it is possible to upgrade the DVD/CD-RW combo on my A60-106? There is nothing wrong with the origonal, but DVD write speeds also have multiplied since I my A60. I burn a lot of discs, and any increase in speed would be a major asset. If the upgrade is possible, am I limited to real Tosh or is there any of the third-party available-based jobbies. My current drive is a Pioneer DVR-K13A.

  Thanks in advance.

  Brian

  Hi Brian,.

  You can certainly replace your optical drive with a new. You will need to ensure that the new disk is the same size as the original (i.e. its physical dimensions), and uses the same connectivity as your original (master, slave, or Cable Select). This last point can be problematic, because very few third-party resellers list actually what setting of their readers.

  As for the actual burn speed, you can see that other factors will affect this. you will find many posts in these forums related to the low burning rate.

  Good luck

• Satellite A60-106: Question about updating the BIOS and the BIOS Flash

  Fact the BIOS Flash update the BIOS or that requires a different file. I've updated a Satellite A60 BIOS to 1.9 but am not sure if cela flashed the BIOS as well.

  If this isn't the case, where I could get a file to Flash BIOS for satellite A60-106?

  Hello

  Sorry, but you question is a bit confusing.
  The update of the BIOS flashing the ROM module I put t know which version is installed before upgrading the BIOS, but if after the upgrade, a new version of the BIOS appears then the procedure was a success.

  The good BIOS and how to upgrade the BIOS information you will find on the page of Toshiba.

• Satellite A60-106 does not start

  Can anyone help? When I turn on my A60 106 it happens with a text screen that says Windows (XP) will not start and a few basic instructions. There are 5 options listed - Safe Mode - Safe Mode with network - safe mode with command prompt - known last good configuration - and start Windows normally. None of them work, computer goes to the Windows XP logo normally then flashes to the toshiba logo, after what the power seems to cut and it is up to the text with the options screen. Which if left constantly looping. All the ideas!

  Hey Warren,

  Whenever I encountered this behavior it is always caused by a defective hard drive. Indeed the system cannot be loaded because the required files can be read from the HD.

  You can try to re - install your recovery CD system in the hope that it is just the files that have been corrupted, but if this also fails then a new HD will be required.

  Hello

  In this case, it is not easy to say why this is happening and what can be the problem. For me, it's like something wrong with the contacts of the power button.
  But I can give you a precise answer.
  I put t know if your warranty is valid but if yes, then you should ask to help ASP. You shouldn't t open Notepad because you will lose the warranty.

• Need CD recovery WIN XP Pro Sat A60

  I need to re build my A60, but lost the recovery CD number 2, where I can download the CD recovery set.

  Thank you

  Simon

  Hi Simon,.

  Sorry, it is not possible to download the recovery CD. You can get to a Toshiba service partner, and you will have to pay for it.

  Alternatively, you can rebuild the system, if you have an original CD of Win XP. The rest is on the CD tools & utilities can be downloaded.
