Portege A200 - Windows Update

Just got the unit and before going any further after the basic installation, wanted to updated windows updates.

But it simply crashes.

Nortan uninstalled, just in case but not luck. Can browse the web ok with no problems.

Even activated the automatic updates hoping it would work, but NO!

The recovery disc reinstalled the operating system, but it's the same thing.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello

First of all, you must restore the system with the recovery and after this installation CD, you can make updates. Automatic updates must be checked and as far as I know all Windows updates works automatically in the background.
If the system is clean and that the firewall is disabled, I can t believe that it of impossible to make updates.

Good bye

  • After loading Windows - crashes BSOD on Portege A200

    Portege A200 Windows XP;

    Before windows has finished loading a blue screen appears and the machine stops. Prior to that, the machine was intermittenlty off without apparent reason. The last thing I did before this happened has been updated to IE 7. Ran scandisk, but has not fixed anything.

    Can start in safe mode but impossible to uninstall IE7 in safe mode. The option selected to load windows last config that worked to option, but windows crashes before the end of loading. Restoration of the system to consider the return to January 08 but still the same problem.

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    In this case, I would recommend do you a clean installation of OS. As you can see that nothing done. I don't really know what you can try, but I really don't think that you will be able to do anything.

    Save all your data important and make the clean OS installation. I know it's quite radical solution but, believe me, one that suits.

  • Satellite A200 restarts continuously after Windows update

    Hey all,.

    The model Satellite A200 - 1 GB (PSAE6E) worked perfectly for two years now (with Vista 32-bit).
    Since running windows update yesterday and restart, the laptop summer stuck in a reboot loop, restart immediately after the 'POST' (the Toshiba logo, etc) screen with a flash of blue screen.
    Holding F8 to read the message, it says INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE (0x000007B)...
    Try to restore to a point before the blackout failed for an unknown reason (gave an error).
    Search in Google gave a possible cause - maybe the hard disk driver was changed by an incompatible type. There were some suggestions to turn off the AHCI in the bios, but it doesn't have this option.
    The bios was not updated since purchase (this is version 1.4), but I can't update because it seems that the only update provided by Toshiba requires windows.

    Someone has any idea how to fix the computer without having to reinstall windows? No matter what?

    Thanks in advance,
    Ofir

    Hello

    I doubt that it could be a hardware error (my personal opinion) but nothing is impossible, that you know
    The fact is that a BSOD can be caused by hardware error, but also a serious software problem
    In my opinion, something went wrong during the update

    If you are not able to boot the operating system even by using a safe mode then a new install of the OS would be the last chance to get this sort problem

    I think you should try a new installation to see if this could be a hardware problem because there is a small remnant of risk that this could be a hardware problem

  • Portege R500 - Vista does not SP1 using windows update

    I just got a new Portege R500.

    Do not specify the information of Windows Vista Service Pack 1, so I guess that's not?
    But the automatic windows update does not offer to install SP1.

    What I have to do it manually? How?

    The other question is: is it OK to do, or are there many problems with drivers after that.

    Please help out me.

    Hello

    First update of Windows is always desirable and SP1 is really necessary, because it fixes many bugs in Vista.

    One of the reasons why Windows Vista doesn't automatically update the SP1 version, is that SP1 can be installed.
    Check if SP1 has been installed. To do this follow these steps:

    1. Click Start, right-click computer and then click Properties.
    2. Windows Vista SP1 is installed, you will see a reference to Windows Vista SP1 is displayed at the bottom of the Windows edition section

    However, I found a useful document of Microsoft Knowledge that could help you to update SP1
    [Windows Vista Service Pack 1 is not available for installation from Windows Update and is not offered by automatic updates | http://support.microsoft.com/kb/948343]

  • Satellite A200-10W: I lost dual-mode Touchpad after Windows update

    I got a satellite A200-10W. The touchpad worked well at the beginning. Then, an update of windows has been installed and I lost dual mode on my touchpad.

    It is for me a normal function as a touchpad, but the mode button does not work. It lights, it do give me the button options, volume control does not work it did not scroll even in normal mode either.
    I reinstalled the drivers both synaptics and alps, but nothing helped.

    How can I ever use dual-mode again?

    Thanks for any help!

    Hello

    Very strange I didn't noticed any problem with the touchpad after the windows update.
    I have updated my windows and then lost the sound. After restarting again I ran the update and the Øresund back

    But if you, it seems that the MS updates could be a bad influence on the functions of touchpad.

    Have you chosen the touchpad drivers just for the PSAECE series?
    The Synaptics Touch Pad driver to set the properties and the touch pad control functions.
    And the Alps Electric Touch Pad Driver allows you to set the properties and functions of mouse control.

    Perhaps you need to configure the settings again after the new installation of drivers touchpad?  :|

    But have you tried to update to Windows Vista again? Sometimes, you have to restart the laptop to get all the necessary updates that will fix the problems.

    In a value of the case, recover the laptop and does not perform the updates of windows

  • Portege A200 - Freeze or crash itself

    Hello world

    I had a problem with my Portege A200 to a crash on the HARD drive for the gel.

Therefore, it is always random gel costs new window XP and also sentive on the network when the network card then it is freeze or crash himself.

    An idea for solving the problems there?

    Thank you
    Jonathan

    Hi Jonathan,.

    If this happens always after using the Toshiba recovery disc, it seems to be a hardware malfunction or something else because the recovery disc can restore the factory settings.

    Maybe your laptop is overheating so you clean with a jet of compressed air. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans. In addition it s not necessary to disassemble the laptop.

    Stupid question maybe now but why do you want to update the BIOS on this, I think, fairly new laptop model?

    Hi ccm

    In my opinion, the HARD drive should run pretty quiet. You can still hear sounds, but they should not be strong. If the unit is a new brand, you must contact the partner in your country, and they can check if there are a few HARD drive malfunction. If it is necessary to change something, the warranty will cover all costs.

    Hi stan

    Sorry, but you should be smart enough to know that this kind of information is not for advertising. On this way, each stolen unit can be started. The best solution is to contact the Service partner and they can remove the password.

  • Portege R600 - cannot update the BIOS using Win server 2008

    Hi all.

    Pls help...

    I tried to update my bios to the new version, but I can't.

    I just downloaded bios update of the toshiba site for portage r600 for my model number (bios update 1.80 - winner), I unzip the zip, run the exe, but error popup came:

    Package for the TOSHIBA BIOS ver.3.2.9
    Unsupported product type is installed.
    Package BIOS BIOS Version: Ver.1.80
    Current BIOS version: Ver.1.40

    So my question is what am I doing wrong? I'm trying to update my bios from windows.

    is my version of windows: windows server 2008 Enterprise Edition x 64 SP1 (don't ask why, I just have to run Server 2008)

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Your OS windows seems not to be the Windows which was preinstalled on your Portege
    You cannot update the BIOS by using the windows server 2008 Enterprise Edition x 64

    You will need to put the system which has been pre-installed by Toshiba

  • Portege A200 - cannot boot from the recovery disc

    Hi, I have a Portege A200 and an original unused Toshiba Recovery CD.

    When I go to recover, the DVD drive just turns and turns and nothing happens. I have tried different methods of booting with the disk to like, by pressing the C key, select boot from CD/DVD or just turn it on with the DVD in the drive. Same problem, the disc turns right away.

    I also checked the drivers TOshiba download page and let down when I found out that there are several drivers for the same thing, like the 3 drivers LAN! Which should I use? Also, I can confirm that the CD/DVD drive works fine because I already loaded windows XP, no problem.

    Any suggestion is appreciated.

    Kieran99.

    Hey Kieran99,

    I also think that s is not a problem of the CD/DVD drive. If it turns over and over again once he recognizes a disc but it can t be read correctly.

    Regarding your question about drivers I think that it of fairly easy. I can recommend the vendor and device ID in Device Manager. With these identification numbers, you can search on this website http://www.pcidatabase.com/ to determine the LAN controller. All that s! :)

    In addition, you can check the ID s in Device Manager, if you click the LAN card properties > Details > PCI\VEN_xxxx & DEV_xxxx

  • Re: Vista SP1 - cannot see in "windows update".

    Hello

    you just bought Satellite A200 (PSAE6) and when I look at the updates, I don't see anything on vista SP1. I can do, or there is no need to download SP1?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I agree with Jason. Sooner or later, you will see that SP1 listed in Windows update Center.
    To install SP1, you must use the automatic update of Windows because the size is much smaller.
