• Errors/problems with my brand-new Equium A200 15I (including video material)

  Hello

  I am treated to a new computer laptop last Saturday and only had for about 3 and a half days so far but I noticed a few things that I wasn't sure were errors/defects or if it was simply because its news, like the fact that sometimes I type with the keyboard and some letters do not appear on the screen , I think it's probably more to do with me not type or support pretty strongly on the keys rather than anything else, his is not so much now... the touchpad becomes a bit sticky too and he thinks I want to scroll up and down when I move the cursor does not scroll sometimes but I managed to make it work I think that most laptops have glitches like that and no doubt I could help fix it in calibrating the pad (?) touch I did have time to consider the issue and yet if... There are a few other things well and more disturbing than this morning I got an error of video material, so now im a little just worried or suspicious that it may be a real fault with him and would like to know if it is the case, if its something I can fix eventually (im no expert especially with the material, but I can always try to download and installation of updates / corrections and this kind of thing so she could solve the problems).

  The main thing that concerns me more, is that this morning a message suddenly come to the screen, warning me that there was an error in video material, last night, I clicked on a button, I think for load more information. and I took this perforated cap of it: -.

  I thought it may be useful to view the actual complete message rather try everything and paste the info., ok to be honest I've not noticed it allow you to copy to the Clipboard, but good (oops lol).

  I know there is a topic on a similar error, but I didn't want end-to-end on this discussion because I assume that it should be for this mistake of people who will be discussed, mine may be slightly different, I don't know... I followed the instructions given in this discussion and I checked the Device Manager and no material defects are appearing, btw it is said in the Manager of peripheral devices, graphics cards, it's a Mobile Intel 945 GM Express Chipset Family, I'm sure that all laptops A200 15I have the same card, but I thought I would just make it clear that. Incase that wasn't the right thing to check I also checked under "Audio, video and game controllers" (as the error says it was a video hardware error) where it lists the only as being "Realtek High Definition" Audio and I checked the properties, both under properties it says that the device works properly, without signs of defects...

  The thing is, I had read somewhere online that there is a problem with the graphics or video cards. I had read that they can be glitchy and sometimes break after a year. I also asked my father about it and we looked at it as a graphics card Intel that came with this laptop, which it is, and we counted that the Intel chips is as reliable as any other brand really... so I don't think there should be a problem, well that is there I have until September next for repair prior to the expiration of the warranty!

  What surprises or sort of worry, however, is that the error message was only introduced to me this morning. It dates from error, as having occurred at 19:53. I use it at night last, and infact, I went to take a shower and I put the laptop down before you go take a shower at around 19:35, I assumed that its ok just close the lid and it would automatically go into hibernate mode or something similar (?) im wondering if that had something to do with it as I 19:53 would have been about when I came back and lifted the lid/screen again to use the laptop again... I can only assume, given the time, he cites, is what caused the failure?

  It gives me the option to "update driver software" and "hardware change analysis" in the Device Manager, can I run both, or one of those who maybe? is this a common problem? should I worry at all etc...

  Any help is very appreciated, if more info. Please let me know and ill clarify what I can. Also in terms of whats installed, I have quite a few programs, for graphics, I have an old version of Paint Shop Pro, which I installed it yesterday morning, it seems to install fine, it is Jasc Paint Shop Pro 7, I have also some programs of converter (for files vid, 3GP and other things), scan antivirus AVG, Spybot Search & Destory DBPowerAmp, FTP Commander, Quicktime and Real Player, pretty basic stuff like that, nothing, just my old photos and vid files I transferred from my old laptop XP to it, in my documents... I don't have all the Senior Games motorized or complicated or anything else like that installed. Also at that time, indicates the video hardware error message, everything that was in progress when I got the cover down (or before putting the lid down) would have been Windows Live Messenger (although I'm pretty sure that I registered before putting the lid down) and an IE window , im pretty sure that's it, I was not working on anything just check the ' net...

  There are other things I noticed as I thought that maybe I should mention (?), something I've noticed he's doing is the screen goes blank and then back very quickly, a lot. I already asked about it a day or so there at that time, I realized he was only doing that before loading the "Windows needs your permission to continue" window/message, who apparently its supposed to do and something to with the computer to switch to display the normal desktop to the secure desktop, I kind of understand lol.
  So I think that's not something to worry about but I noticed during the lastday, that the screen seems to do it more, goes blank then back again, even if the authorization message does not appear.

  For example, this morning, when I first put on and am went to check out my home page, I clicked on a link at the bottom of the page or anywhere where to load another page into the site and display deleted for a while before coming back a second later with the requested page. Is this normal too? or an associated Vista glitch, or is it possible that there may be a small problem with the monitor? Incase of im guessing it can be more than one thing in Vista, but I thought I would ask here, I decided to not pay for any extra insurance/warranty extension because I am very careful with my items and take care of them and so I'm being careful to try to spot defects early, while they may be repairable under the basic warranty and what-not...

  Another thing I noticed is that start with, when I pressed on and kept the 'FN' key, a variety of icons, black and white appeared on the screen that told me what F button (s) to use to make certain adjustments, there still is that when I try right now, but at other times, it does not show icons , no matter how long I hold down the "fn". That didn't matter because I can tell by the symbols on the keyboard press what buttons but its just inconsistent, is there a reason why sometimes the row of icons on the screen will appear when I press and hold the "FN" key and other times it doesn't show at all?

  Also sometimes if I move the slider to the right to the top of the screen, these icons loading as they always seem to be located at the top of the screen, but sometimes it's a problem, if im trying to click on something else and one of these icons rises instead... I'm sure that you can disable this option in sort , but I'd be worried that the icons do not always show when I press and hold the right Button (?) just try to be careful!

  I think that this post is long enough and I don't see what else I could possibly add to help, so I'll leave this here. I don't want to sound too paranoid, but thought it is better to talk about this kind of things incase someone recognizes these defects/errors and can recommend a way fast to resolve potential problems before they can develop into what whether it is worse... Thank you very much in advance for any help on any of these issues!

  (mods let me know if im wrong to include so many things in a subject, I fact kind of this quickly and I apologize if im breaking any rules, I don't want to, if possible please break this into a few different themes or I can do it, although ill be at work frm 2-21:00 today so maybe not back and able to check here until Thursday morning (October 4))

  Hey Isla

  Your message is really very, very long. I think it's too long to read twice ;) s

  . Regarding your questions on this laptop well. Looks like you have installed many applications and 3 third party programs. In such cases, it s not easy to say if these problems are software or hardware related. But I guess that its software.

  I checked your screenshot pic, but I've never seen this error message. But it looks like something wrong with the graphics driver. The message says something, live events of kernel
  The core services are required by other parts of the operating system as for example graphics card driver.

  In this case I recommend updating the graphics driver. According to you, this message an Intel GPU. So you can see the Intel page for the driver for the graphics chip compatible.

  With regard to the key issue of the FN;
  The Toshiba FlashCard utility controls the key features of the FN. I read in this forum that this application does not smoothly run and in some cases it causes some issues. The new update should solve the problems. You should check the Toshiba driver page. The utility of FlashCard is a part of the Toshiba value added package.

  So finally a tip more:
  You should always check the updates of Vista on the Microsoft page. This operating system is not perfect and Microsoft releases hotfixes and patches very often

  I hope that it would help a little.

  If necessary just ask for more information :)

• Equium A200 - problems with the CD/DVD-RW and Realtek HD driver

  I'm having some trouble with my Equium A200-1VO.

  First of all, I can't get the CD/DVD-RW to write any dics. The Player opens also from time to time.

  Secondl, I just downloaded and installed the latest driver Realtek HD audio, under the guidance of Toshiba, to see that when I plug my headphones the sound always comes out of my laptop speakers.

  Any help or thoughts?

  Thank you

  Now, he can be really problematic. If you use your own installation of the OS, no one can say with certainty what can be the problem. Each laptop manufacturer, including Toshiba, offer recovery image installation and in using the factory settings, everything should work well. These recovery images are tested and they offer all the hardware and software features.

  Maybe you should install Vista using recovery media supplied and check if all these problems are happening again. If yes then we can talk about the unusual and serious issues.

• Equium A200-1V0 - recovery on the new HARD drive problem

  Hello

  Hoping someone can help, I just mounted a new Toshiba 1 TB hard drive for my Equium A200-1V0, used the Vista came with the computer recovery disk, everything seems to be installed ok, but when you try to start, I get a message saying that Windows Vista is unable to run on this hardware. Any suggestion is appreciated.

  Thank you

  There must be a compatibility problem. Usually the hard drives up to 500 GB are not problematic for the old machines.
  If possible, try to install the version of the OS. When you can get Win7 32 bit would be great. Win7 32-bit is supported for your machine and in my view, it will work perfectly.

• Equium A200 - gel/boot/loader problem

  Hello

  I have an Equium A200-1V0 with what I see is a common problem on many forums I find via google, but I can't find any solution for it.

  1. the laptop does not (No bios screen) when the charger is connected.
  2. it will normally start with the charger connected. However, the battery, even if the rest in charge, will deplete once vista started well. When I plug the charger then it freezes.

  I use an authentic charger. Any ideas? Don't you think it's just the battery? Or y at - it something on the map at the origin of this problem?

  Hello

  I think that in the first stage, the charger must be tested.
  I read a few threads in various forums and a user had a similar problem and could solve this in replacement AC adapter.

  But of course it is no guarantee that it would be a solution, you will need to test this

• Fan on my Equium A200 makes strange noises

  Fan cooling on my Equium A200-1AC age of 2 months is a hell of a racket suddenly, would it be the bearings on the cooling fan goes all ready?

  Does anyone else have this problem? I really don't want to have to send it away for 2 weeks if I have to get it fixed

  Sorry, but I don't really know what you want to do if the service check is not an option. As John wrote, it is not the time to play with the one laptop. The laptop is brand new and with warranty valid. Maybe is the problem, not complicated and can be repaired very quickly.

• Problems with iTunes sync - Equium A200-1v0

  Hello

  wonder if someone could help with this?

  I have trouble to synchronize my Toshiba Equium A200-1v0 with my iphone in itunes.
  The laptop worked well with an ipod for years are, however, have no joy with the iphone.

  Someone suggested that my drivers may need to be updated.
  How can I find the specific drivers needed?
  Anyone else had a similar problem with itunes?

  Thank you

  Why do you want to update the driver for laptop?
  This has nothing to do with the laptop.
  I guess that this is related to the Apple software and I recommend to reinstall this kind of things together.

  I had also some problems with the iTunes software. I put like that, but I need to synchronize the files with my iphone and I had to reinstall it many times to make it work.

• Equium A200; How to order the recovery CD

  When I buy my Equium A200 computer in October/November of this year (2007), I was surprised to not find DVD/CD recovery with the package.
  I contacted the store where I bought the computer from and they said they would be arange to be sent to me.

  They say now that the CD is not their problem.
  What the problem is then it. Contact the Toshiba ASP?

  For me it s very strange that the Toshiba Recovery CD was not shipped with the laptop.
  Usually the recovery CD should always be supplied with the device.

  Anyway, the ASP (authorized service provider) may sell the right recovery CD/DVDs. Contact the guys in your country and ask for the CD compatible and right.

  Good luck

• Equium A200-15i - loss of internet connection

  Hello!

  I have a really strange problem with my Equium A200-15i. My computer loses the connection with the internet very often.

  Connectivity shows that I am connected to the LAN or WLAN (if I use an ethernet cable). However, I am not connected to the internet. The network said "connected" icon, but everytime I open IE, the display shows 'page not available', my email client and communicators do not work as well.

  I checked all the wireless and ethernet settings and they are ok. Ive has run the diagnostics - ok. Device Manager indicates NICs (lan and wlan) are working properly. Router (BT HUB) is ok, there are more than two computers with it and they work perfectly (another computer laptop workes on wireless and PC is connected with the cable), so the problem is with my Toshiba only. Also, I say that we had a differenf router before and everything was good.

  When I restart my laptop it is internet connection but not for long. After a few reboots even who stops to help and I get the message "connected to the unidentified network, limmited to access" or sth like that. Then I restart the router security settings, fix it again and put the new settings into my laptop. This may help, but not for long... After a few days or a few hours sometimes everything again.

  Anyone, please help. I'm really, really confused :(:(

  Hello

  Please talk to WLAN and LAN connectivity separately? As a first step, it will be interesting to know what is with LAN connectivity. If you disable WLAN you are able to use permanent LAN connectivity?

  In most cases people have problems with WIFI but not so often with LAN connectivity because of that as a first step, that I just want to know if the local network works well. I have 3 laptops connected to my router and have never noticed any problem with the connection to the local network. I must say that I have the PPPOE settings. All of the TCP/IP parameters are set automatically to.

• Equium A200-1V0 - just freezes very often

  I have a problem with my Toshiba Equium A200-1V0. It freezes just very often to watch movies, browse the net or just listening to music and it makes a strange noise like when winamp freezes, but the music is still playing.
  I have windows 7.

  What can I do? SRY for my English

  Hi eidrian88,

  I think that it of difficult to say something because it can be everything... I want to say that no one knows what you have installed exactly so it could be a software or a hardware problem.

  In my opinion the best way to identify the exact problem is reinstall with the Toshiba recovery disc. It will restore software factory with all the drivers and tools. If these settings are pre-tested and should work correctly.

  Otherwise it might be a hardware malfunction and an authorized service provider can verify this.

• Equium A200 - windows requires a driver for Microsoft ISATAP Adapter

  Hello

  I am a complete newbie at this forum and came looking for help. I recently bought an Equium A200 laptop computer with Vista preinstalled.

  Lately when I start the computer and log in to Windows, I get a message that windows requires a driver for an unknown device and ask for permission to connect to the internet to find the driver concerned. When I click on this option, I get a message saying that the computer has found the driver but has encountered an error trying to install "Microsoft ISA TAP adapter".

  What is it and why should we need for installation? I thought it was quite strange. Any ideas people?

  Any help will be much appreciated.

• Noisy hard drive Equium A200-1V0

  I recently bought an Equium A200-1V0 with Vista installed.
  I got it two weeks, I have barely any software, but HDD is impregnated with a really annoying crackling sound.

  It is not only during startup, even for the simplest of programs, such as word, brands of hard drive of my laptop this incessant crackling noise.
  I thought that the laptops are supposed to be quiet.

  Is - this usual?

  > I thought laptops are supposed to be quiet.
  ;) not. You can't say that all laptops must be altogether. As you know there are a lot of series of laptops that is designed for the different areas of work.
  For example: professional laptops are quite little, and don t support the high performance devices like for example graphics card to play games, but a X 200 was desigened to the game and it is much noisier because of high performance devices.

  However, to the noisy HARD drive
  I have 2 different laptops. Drives my M40 of Sam makes strange noises, but it works very well, so in my case I would exclude a hardware problem

  But who knows, maybe you HDD starts I have malfunction would recommend shows the additional HARD drive activities and to safeguard important data.
