Problem connection or a virus on Satellite A300 - 1 MM

Laptop is Satellite A300 - 1 MM (Pentium T3200, GMA 4500 M, 250GB...) with x 32 preinstalled Vista Home Premium.
Initial problem seems to be the forgotten password. I tried to enter safe mode, but it stops a few seconds after loading driver crcdisk.sys
and continues to start in normal mode. I tried to rename pcmcia drivers as someone suggested, but no luck.

Then I tried to add admin to the login screen. I used the Vista installation DVD another to open the command in the recovery console
fast and use "net user administrator / Active: Yes". She showed no errors. I don't know if it's important, but "net user" listed
only administrator accounts and invited, unusual account that appears on the login screen.
This account is displayed as "USERNAME". (with), but the folder of the user on the system drive is "D:\users\username".

Then I tried with manual registry change in the recovery console. In HKEY_LocalMachine\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\Cur rentVersion\Winlogon\
I added the key SpecialAccounts and UserList and administrator key dword with the value 1.
No luck.
I noticed that after restarting, register forgot all the changes I made.
I also noticed that the Shell variable which should be explorer.exe is "cmd.exe /k start cmd.exe".
I Googled it and it turned out Win32:Sality virus.
I scanned all computer laptop with Kapersky disk but it reported no virus.
I can't restore C: settings because he asks for password which I don't have.
I also tried to recover password with OPH Crack, but showed "not found".

Hi Blacky,

Your ad is very technical and it seems that you understand how to use or install a computer. Sounds like a computer technician bit ;)

Anyway, if I understand your correct announcement, you forgot login password for your laptop. It's always a little awkward
But you must understand that there is no formal way to recover or reset. If this password n t be sure.

I never had this problem and I think that you won't find a lot of information here on this topic. I think that the only way is to use Google. I can see that there are a few interesting pages on the password reset. Just look for a little

But in the worst case, you will need to reinstall the laptop while using the Toshiba recovery disc. After that, you have back factory settings and you can use Notepad again. :)

Good luck!

    Reset you the router? Unplug the power connector on the router, wait 10 minutes and then plug it. Maybe it still works.

    Check the settings in the router and windows. All devices must use the same standards.
    Search on the Toshiba site, if you have the newest BIOS and check if the TCP/IP settings are on automatically and in the router.
    Try turning off the router MAC address filter.

  • Problems with the online games on Satellite A300

    I recently bought an A300 Toshy under Windows Vista Home Premium and it cannot find all the games to play online.
    I opened all the ports that are correct and I can connect to the internet fine, but I never see all the games in a hall online.
    I tried to cs: source, warcraft 3 and the 2 Team Fortress and none show all games when searching online.

    My guess is it's a network problem, but I have no idea what, anyone have any ideas?

    Hello!

    You have internet security software or firewall on your laptop installed? This could block the games so check that!
    Also, make sure that Windows Firewall doesn't block games.

    In addition, you should check if you have Service Pack 1 for Windows Vista installed.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Normally you n t need a driver for USB. On XP, Vista and Windows 7 the stick will be automatically installed and no driver is no longer necessary.

    Can you please tell us what OS you are using? This happens with the factory settings or you have installed another OS?
    You should try with the factory settings and update the chipset driver. You can find it on the Toshiba site. In addition, updating the BIOS could also be helpful.

  • Satellite A300 - lack of sleep/hibernate with connected LAN cable

    Hello

    I've owned a 1FZ A300 for a few weeks and unfortunately it did not go into sleep mode or hibernation while the ethernet cable from the router is plugged in, even with other programs stopped.

    (Previously, I used an other non-Toshiba notebook with no problem)

    I tried upgrading the BIOS as suggested in other threads, but it is newer that what is available on the Web site.

    Everyone knows about this problem?

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello Mike ;)

    I wonder what you do with your laptop. I have Satellite A300-1LI in front of me and standby/hibernation work correctly. Last week, I tested the portable functionality under Windows XP Home edition and I didn't notice any problems under Windows XP Home edition either.

    Now I have Vista (recovery image) once again and it works well. Can I use FN + F3, F4 with no problems.
    Please note that my Satellite A300 is permanently connected to the local network. I use it for my work.

    The question is: have you noticed that on the first day?

  • Satellite A300 - cannot access the Internet more

    I would like to re - open this thread because I am facing a similar problem.
    I have a Toshiba Satellite A300 and I installed Windwos 7 two months ago. Yesterday, his suddenly, my laptop could not access the internet more, but the wireless lan connection worked well.
    Until this malfunction appeared in the list of active connection, there was only one entrance, my network classified as "Home network" but now, instead, there are two entry, it is my network classified as "Home network", the other is a 'unidntified network', classified as 'Public network '.

    I am sure that the problem is in my laptop and not in the adsl router because:
    1 - other people to join my network wireless with normal internet access.
    2. the problem always occurs with other networks currently used by third parties to connect to the internet.
    3 - the problem always with cable connection

    Windows reports no error.

    Thanks in advance for any assistance.
    Andrea

    Hello Andrea,

    To me it seems that you don't have an Internet connection so you always connected to the router but if you can access Internet t. You should look in the router configuration to see if it s is connected correctly.

    Try also updating the firmware on your router and disable security features to test this situation.

    Last but not least, you should try too update the wireless adapter driver. It can be downloaded on the official page of Toshiba. :)

  • Satellite A300 PSAG4E - no sound when you plug an electric guitar

    Hello everyone!

    I have a very difficult problem. I've got model Satellite A300, PSAG4E its short no, with Windows XP SP3 installed.

    The point is that I need to plug in an electric guitar to my computer and once it is plugged in, RealTek HD sees him but produces, records or not distinguished any sound.

    Everything is on, then I'm afraid that this isn't my inattention which is to blame.

    In case someone already had such a problem with guitar or a microphone plugged into the laptop, please inform me how you managed to eliminate this kind of things.

    Thank you.

    On my laptop I have Realtek HD Audio Manager also, but there is no option for registration. When the external microphone is connected Manager I see info on Realtek audio devices reloading and the microphone is recognized correctly, but in my opinion this Manager has nothing to do with the record.

    For the record, you need other software. In Vista, you have small tool called recorder of sounds. I tested it on my laptop and the sound will be recorded correctly.
    Can you please test it too?

    The fact is the external device is recognized correctly, but I think for sound recording, you need additional software.

  • Satellite A300 power suddenly goes out during the race for hours

    Dear users of the Forum,

    I am facing a strange problem in operation.
    My laptop Satellite A300 is suddenly down power during the race for hours.
    It is auto off not exactly. Not the way windows stop, is rather like strength to off (as when I press on & power button to stop force).

    This happens automatically, starting again, the screen saying "windows does not stop properly, start windows normally" is apperanig.

    I suspected virus infection, I tried full scan with nod 32, essential microsoft, kaspesky - 1 by 1 (previous uninstall and install the new), but all the antivirus intremediately scan stopped due to this power off.

    Watch movie also stopped in the Middle, attempted to convert the movie file format also was arrested several times because of this problem of automatic disconnection.

    I tried to run only on the power (remove battery) and got the same result.

    can anyone identify the problem? can you please give me the solution?

    Hello

    I put t think it is s virus.
    En me it looks like overheating. Eventually the high internal temperature requires the laptop to close. This is done automatically to prevent the equipment from damage
    I'm not quite sure what could cause this exactly, but in most cases the dust inside the fans affects cooling performance and lead to a temperature higher than m.

    Higher temperatures could affect the RAM modules too, and perhaps that is the reason why some applications don't work properly.

    What to say; try to clean the cooling fans using a jet of compressed air and check out how the laptop would proceed

  • Satellite A300 1lW - installation of Windows 7 - any questions?

    Good morning/afternoon!

    I would like to install a new internal hard drive on my laptop and I want to put windows 7 on it.

    The problem is that it is the first time that I'm going to do this and I Don t really know what kind of functionality will be incompatible with this installation.

    -You can recommend me a version of windows 7 that may be suitable for this laptop?
    -What features will be disabled when I install windows 7 on my new hard drive?

    Thank you very much!

    Concerning

    Remy

    Hi mate

    To be honest I wonder about these questions.
    Windows 7 is fully supported and normally you should get no problems with Windows 7 running on Satellite A300.

    The Windows 7 drivers are available on the page of the Toshiba UE driver. T
    for this I put t expect serious problems.

    If you have any questions, feel free to ask the people here in the community. :)

  • Mute or LED on / off button question on Satellite A300 - 15 c

    Hello

    I have a similar problem. I have laptop Toshiba Satellite A300 - 15 c.

    Until recently, the multimedia keys worked fine. I have assigned an exe file to the second to the left key and been happy to use the power button lights and the dimmer.exe, but a few days ago the drive key stopped turning lights and acts rather as a key to turn off/turn on the sound. I checked the SCT and the key is always associated with the dimmer.exe. I even tried to associate the key with another function, but it remains just mutes / restores the sound the sound. You have an idea as to what could cause this problem and how can I solve this problem?

    And no, apart from updates to Vista randomly I have not installed anything new since before the key drive started acting weird...

    Hello!

    Value added package regulates these buttons and in this case, you must reinstall and use the latest version on the Toshiba site:

    As Garrett says you have to remove the old version first, restart, clean the system and then install the most recent drivers.
