  Is it posible to thath I missed something... Bluetooth, wireless, sound, games, camera, mic, etc., everything works...

  Thanks in advance guys (or girls);...

  Hello

  Have you installed the right graphics card driver?
  The Sat A300-1GN belongs to the PSAGCE series.
  I checked the page of the Toshiba driver and there are two pilots;
  I think that you should choose the ATI driver 8.477 display because this driver supports the Mobility Radeon HD 34xx/36xx chips.

  Other base system devices could be Bridge Media slot (for SD cards), touchpad, HDMI Control Manager.

  I didn't find these drivers 64-bit on Toshiba page. Maybe you should choose some drivers for Vista 32 bit

• Question about Satellite L40 and Vista 32 bit

  Hey all, I have the following problem.
  I have Satellite L40 series 2 PC and tried to install vista ultimate 32 bit, and they freeze only on the process of "complete installation."
  I read in some other forums and found it is not only my problem. I tried with 64 bit ultimate, it's all OK. It may be, the main problem is that it is not possible to install VISTA 32 bit.
  I only ultimate now, so my question is if anyone knows or installed to another type of Vista 32 bit on these series?

  Thanks before

  As far as I know that all new models of Toshiba laptops come with Vista 32 bit. Satellite L40 is offered in three different models, and each one also comes with 32-bit operating system. If you have the recovery DVDs with your laptop is Vista 32 - bit OS. I assume it must be the Home Premium version.

  I don't have a model L, but my model works well on Vista Ultimate.

• Satellite A100 - update BIOS problem with phlashnt.sys and Vista 64

  I downloaded the upgrade of BIOS (file S10V600.exe) for my Toshiba Satellite A100-437 (PSAA8). When I try to launch it I get the answer:
  "Unable to load driver.
  ... \PHLASHNT. SYS
  ...
  This driver has been blocked form load.
  Error code: 1275 "
  (I rolled points instead of less interesting part of this message.

  My system is Vista Business 64 - bit SP1.

  I turned off User Account Control (in fact it the first thing I did after installing Vista ;)).
  And just to be safe, I also tried to right click on the S10V600.exe file and choose "Run as Administrator".
  I was using the admin account.

  Nothing did. Always the same window with the above message appeared.

  Any help would be appreciated!

  Concerning

  Maybe it's because you have installed Vista 64-bit?

  You may need to use XP or Vista 32 bit update of the BIOS.

• Problems with Satellite A300 - 1GC XP install - CD does not?

  Hello

  I have a few looks to round in various forums and found no answer to everything.

  I have the Satellite A300-1GC and had (from last night) vista on it. As caused Vista
  a lot of problems with different programs, I decided to get rid of him.

  The problem is now--if I stick my XP installation CD it it bed "press any key to boot from CD".
  Do that and then nothing happens. The CD read head stops going back and forward
  but nothing happens at all. Not even the beginning of the blue installation screen.

  Any ideas where this comes from?

  The CD-rom can also be run in AHCI mode (can a CD player what do I do?) and requires drivers?
  I have tried various CD XP - neither work. The last one I had was with SP3 and build in February 2009 so quite recent.

  Clues?

  See you soon
  Tobimaster

  Hello

  In your case the question has nothing to do with the SATA mode (AHCI mode or Compatible) but it looks like the CD/DVD drive cannot handle the Win XP disc
  Why? Who knows

  Always is it that the CD cannot be read and so the installation can not get.

  Try to copy this disc by using another computer and then you can try using the disc copied on order to install Win XP.

  Just FYI: I use TDK (CD and DVD) r discs... I am very satisfied

• Satellite A300 - and Vista recovery Question

  I bought a Satellite A300 a few days previously, it automatically installed Vista without CD when I opened it.
  Is it joint to come with a vista CD/DVD or I need to burn a Toshiba Recovery disk?

  Pkozerski is right. Toshiba offers no support for recovery with new laptop models and this media must be created using the preinstalled recovery Toshiba creator tool.

  To do this I advise you to use high quality in DVD-R format media. My favorite is TDK or Verbatim.
  If you change anything in the future on your laptop, you'll be able to find your laptop using recovery image stored on the second partition.

  If you need instructions specific to how make it please let me know.

• Re: Two questions on Satellite A300 and Win7 32 bit

  Hello

  I have a satellite A300 PSAJ4E windows 7 32 bit.
  I installed all the drivers to Toshiba support, but I have 2 problems.
  the first is that sometimes my screan does not open while the laptop is open and functioning. I know that his work because when I plug another screen his everything is ok.
  the other problem is that I have an unknown device (ACPI\TOS6205)

  Can someone help me?

  Thank you

  > the first is that sometimes my screan does not open while the laptop is open and functioning properly
  It is still problematic to discuss problems that sometimes occur. When this happens you can see Toshiba welcome screen or hear sounds of windows?
  > another DIF, is that I have an unknown device (ACPI\TOS6205)
  I think that you need to install the bluetooth drivers.

• Problem with drive HARD and Vista install

  Hi all

  A few weeks ago, my Dell Inspiron laptop computer started to freeze. I could boot ok and my desktop wallpaper and icons were all there, but I couldn't run or open anything. I did the Bios tests and my Vista installation disc and told me there was a problem with my hard drive. I wiped it and tried to reinstall vista and that I could see it wasn't working because it took hours and then seems to have stopped again during installation. So I bought a new one and tried to install Vista. everything was going well until it is restarts a second time and I got a black screen with a mouse pointer icon. I had to reinstall it running for about 4 hours, at least an hour of that time which was all that was going on and the hard disk wasn't spinning.

  How long on avg would take to install Vista, if it is running normally?

  is there anything else that might be a problem that would not appear in the repair of Vista or Bios diagnostics?

  Any advice would help a lot.

  If the new hard drive does not work, then the problem is on the motherboard. Your description of symptoms indicates a power supply or motherboard failure. Contact Dell technical support for repair or replacement. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  Hi Madril,

  Thanks for posting this question in the Microsoft Community.

  Could you give us little answers so that we can have a better understanding of the issue?

  1. you are trying to boot Vista on Windows 7? If this is the case, I suggest that it will not work.

  2 you both fill the operating system installed?

  I would like to inform you that when you start in Windows Vista or Windows 7 regardless of the drive, they can be installed, Windows display readers primaries than C. Drive C is always reserved for Windows. That's why Windows it will show that the C drive.

  If the dual boot works fine, you don't have to worry about what.

  You can also format the hard drive, create two different partitions and then start Vista in a drive and Windows 7 in another. You can also go through the article on multiboot and check if it helps.

  Hope this helps and provide us more information if you need more assistance. We will be happy to help you.

• Problems with Satellite A300-1 b 0 cooling: fan does not stop

  Hello users,.

  I m new on Linux and Ubuntu, I installed ubuntu 8.10 last week;
  All things are ok, ok start menu because I have XP, network ethernet connection and wireless, updates ok, ok packages!
  just one thing that make me "' it's my laptop fan, I explain:
  He turned on since I have connection ubuntu and it will be off only when that I disconnect "shutt down" my laptop, so it never stops until the

  the use of ubuntu, because with xp there start but if the processor is cold it is stop! and restart and etc...

  So if anyone has an idea, you are WELCOME!

  and I have the patched with the latest bios of the toshiba site
  Date of the bios 07 2008 v3.7 blistering

  > The use of Ubuntu, because with XP there start but if the processor is cold it is stop! and restart and etc...
  If I understand correctly using the Win XP the fan does not always with some breaks. Is this good?

  This isn't a problem but a friend feature.
  As you know the GPU creates a lot of heat.

  This is why it is important that the fan is way on and to cool the GPU or CPU if the temperature reached and some point.
  I put t know what temperature must be reached, but it cannot be too high due to overheating problems.

  Second graphics driver Toshiba control the performance of GPU and the dissipation of the heat too. If the temperature rises to a critical level (applications executing heavy performance) the diver decreases performance to ensure that the heat dissipation would come down.

  But this happens only if the cooling module will not be able to cool the internal temperature.

• media sharing problem - with 2 routers and vista?

    someone at - it ideas why does not the sharing of multimedia files. PS3 works well when playing online and I share on multimedia. using vista and the network sharing Center, I have all of sharing and discovery on (cept password protection)

    Thank you

  If you use a router as a wireless access point, make sure 1) you have disabled DHCP; and (2) it is on the same subnet as the first router (which will do DHCP). For example, if the #1 router is 192.168.1.1, then the #2 router (wireless access point) must be something like 192.168.1.245. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• Satellite Pro C650D - problems with the audio and game controllers

  Hello

  I recently had problems with my microphone and speakers/headphones and game controllers.
  Sometimes the microphone stops working when on Skype, for example, but most of the time works fine, once again, when I restart the pc.

  Stakeholders sometimes still work when I connect headset.
  Some of the sounds are still coming through the speakers while some coming through the headphones.

  I have a usb game controller which also did not work everything properly.
  If I assign buttons in the program that they do not work in the game.

  All these devices are in Device Manager in a group that makes me think it's sort of annoying update doubtful that messes with them.

  Any body have similar problems or know what to do better?

  See you soon
  Laurin

  Hello

  Can you please send some details on the laptop model and the system you are using?

  With regard to the issue of sound/mic:
  > The microphone sometimes stops working when on Skype, for example, but most of the time works fine, once again, when I restart the pc.

  Are you talking about internal microphone or external? This only happens using Skype?
  In your case I would test the microphone using different applications to make sure that is not a Skype related issue.

  > Yet sometimes the speakers work when I connect headset.
  I recommend this thread:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=65295

  The user has had a similar problem, but this phenomenon was linked to the Realtek HD Audio Manager settings.
  She wrote:
  + In the upper right corner, there is a small yellow folder called "Connector settings" in my version. +
  + There, finally I could re-enable the setting "enable popup dialog box, when the unit is plugged. +

  + So now when I plug an external speaker or headphones, it appears, and I select the option "helmet" (instead of "line-in"), and then the sound only through the headphones/ext.speaker.+

  Regarding the game controller:
  > I have a usb game controller which also did not work everything properly.
  > If I attribute buttons in the program, they do not work in the game.
  I put t think its problem of laptop in my opinion, you must make sure that the controller is compatible with the games you play and also recommended to check some info provided by the manufacturer of the game controller.
