  I hope someone can help me with this, it makes me crazy.

  I can't get the sound to work on my Tecra 9100. The system does not recognize that there is a map of his present. When I try to install the drivers downloaded from the Toshiba site, installation is going through the motions and then at the end it turns out that this error message: caution, "was not installed. That's all. I tried to uninstall, restart, fully updated Windows, even by the restoration of the system from the CD that came with the laptop... nothing works! Argh!

  Hello

  You are 100% sure that the sound card is not faulty?

• Tecra 9100: reboot without end - media test failed

  Hello

  a friend of mine apperantely has some problems with its Tecra 9100 and he asked me if I could help him. Maybe some of you guys know what this could be... I'll post his original comments to e-mail on the situation:

  "When I start the computer it keeps restart indefinitely, it is not answered none of F8 and do not accept any CD I get into the BIOS and ask from CD, but without success.

  "I went into the BIOS and something and now he told me
  LAN adapter failed media test. Please check cable and reboot the system (cable only I plugged the Power one) I can't get out of this when it reboot. »

  I'll try to get my hands on him by phone today so I can get a better description of the problem. But maybe some of you know what could be the problem.

  Thank you
  Daniel

  Hi Daniel,.

  The message that appears during the startup process, which would indicate that is the boot sequence is incorrect and the laptop tries to start from a lan device, or there is a problem with access to a HARD drive or bootable CD.

  I first try to access the BIOS boot screen (press ESC as soon as appears the screen flash Toshiba) and check that the initial MESSAGE is successful, then access the BIOS (F2) Setup and carefully check all the settings to ensure they are compatible with the laptop.

  Finally, I would like to check the boot sequence so that CD-ROM followed by HARD drive as the first two points. (You can of course put HDD first, I prefer just CD first me).

• Hi speed USB via a Port Replicator advanced for a Tecra 9100?

  I have the same problem with a Tecra 9100 and upgrade to hi speed USB as a previous post where the proposed solution was to use a PCMCIA card.

  (see link: http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=24103)

  I had an idea, but I don't know if it will work and need some advice?

  Can you buy an Advanced Port Replicator that has Hi Speed USB 2.0 ports on it (like the PA3082U APR II that works with the Tecra 9100) instead of the PCMCIA card.

  If the docks of Port Replicator in the motherboard will it give you Hi Speed USB 2.0, or is the Tecra 9100 forced to USB 1.1 via hardware in the laptop itself and the Replicator will not help?

  Also if I go down the road of Port Replicator I need drivers for speed ports Hi of the Replicator to work on the Tecra 9100?

  Or to ask the question – what is the PCMIA USB 2.0 card in that advanced with HI Port Replicator speeed USB is not?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  the Tecra 9100 has NO usb 2.0 and it's a fact. Given that the Replicator has these USB ports 2.0 does not mean that your machine when it is docked to the Portrep, is able to manage USB 2.0 devices. The portrep, it's like a usb hub and behaves like. So if your machine doesn´t have it then that's it.

  And the explanation on the PCMCIA/Cardbus solution:
  The pcmcia card USB 2.0 Chipset, this is the reason why it IS a USB 2.0 device (roothub).

  I hope this was clear to you :)

  Just buy this card and you will have USB 2.0

• Tecra 9100: Jumpy cursor and scrolling are not smooth.

  Hello

  I have a problem with my Tecra 9100 that after moving my cursor for a few seconds, he rushes toward what direction I pointing me. It's very annoying. As well as this, when I the scrolling is not smooth at all, but as the slider, he "jumps." So when I try to scroll down a page that I have to be careful because he could jump right down! Thought I should also mention that drag Windows is too jumpy.

  I'm almost certain that these three problems are all related to each other.

  Before, my laptop was good with any of the above problems. It was until the error messages say "delayed write failed" popped up unexpectedly. Those errors, which I found to be associated with the hardrive does not properly.

  Optimisticly, I formatted C drive and put on a new installation of Windows to see if that would solve my problem. Surely, he would do?... Nope. How I download the driver of my laptop MouseWare comes with?... Still does not solve the problem.

  I run out of ideas and do not think that my problem will be solved by a software update. I think it's to do with my hardware (namely talk, hard drives). I have 2 hard drives. Either way, the error messages "delayed write failed" appears on both my hard drives.

  Answer please, thank you.

  Great info. Thanks for sharing

• Tecra 9100 + external keyboard

  Hello
  I have a problem with a Tecra 9100. I want to use with a docking station and external mouse & keyboard.
  The keyboard does not work, if I put it in the docking station, but the mouse is not serious.
  I've changed some options in the bios, the keyboard works... after reboot it does not.
  so I always have to go into bios, first of all, if I want to use the keyboard. But strangely, that I don't change something in biso, just the join and the left, that works for keyboard.

  Get an idea what I could do?

  Hi paul

  It is very interesting. Can you please explain what needs to be changed in the BIOS settings?

• Wireless LAN on Tecra 9100 evil: card not recognized or system crashes

  I have a little problem with my tecra 9100. When I want to use my wireless network, it works sometimes and sometimes the pc does not even see the map. but when it works for awhile, then the complete system crashes! and I have to reset the tecra. now I use an external wireless (3com) and features a large, but what can be the problem?

  Hello

  Without accurate control for laptop, we can just speculate what may be the problem. If sometimes the WLAN card is not visible to the system, I guess there is a contact problem and system has no contact to the card and card cannot be detected at all.

  When it blocks for laptop may be due to loss of contact on the map. In my view the contact on the motherboard must be verified by the service. If you don't want to just use the external solution and take advantage of the WLAN functionality.

• Tecra 9100 - problem BIOS update/restore

  Hi all:

  A few days ago, I (declining misguidely) tried to update the BIOS on my Tecra 9100. Now on startup I get the message "BIOS (Block1) is damaged! (Call the repairman). Technician: Place the maintenance disk in the drive and press any key when ready "." I tried to restore the BIOS by following the instructions on the web page of the BIOS (traditional method using a USB FDD) driver - put on with the key immediately to the left of the SPACEBAR key leads to the message "ready for the update of the BIOS. Place the BIOS update floppy in the drive and press any key when you are ready to move forward. "The disk is regularly consulted and the laptop will beep every 10 seconds for a period of a few minutes. Then it stops, but should be repeated after any key is pressed. There is however, no change in the information in the form and no result just possible restart in the same error message on the BIOS damaged.

  Anyone can shed some light on what might be happening here? I'm afraid that I maybe should I follow a few instructions on the screen (as the instructions for the update of the BIOS suggest) that I do not see that the screen is not active? So I can't hit the correct answers when required. Should I really the military and its maintenance diskette? Is this disk available anywhere if I can do it myself?

  Any help or suggestions that anyone can give on this subject would be much appreciated - I don't want to go hunting a new motherboard unless it is absolutely necessary.

  Cheers, Chris.

  Hello Chris

  I am not a technician, but according to your assignment, I'm sure that your BIOS chip is damaged. I'm afraid of nothing that you can do everything alone. I recommend you call and explain the situation.

  I'm really skeptical you will find these special tools online.

• Tecra 9100 wireless network problem

  I'll have a chance by putting my Tecra 9100 with my home wireless network. The network seems to work very well. My other laptop connects to it without any problems and I can connect the Tecra with the ethernet cable. But the wireless connection, it cannot be successfully established by the Tecra.

  She claims to be connected, but he receives no package, and could get no internet connectivity. When I try to 'fix' the connection, it sits there for a while before telling me that the IP address may not be renewed.

  I managed to connect the Tecra to the network of the next door without penalty, which suggests that there is some kind of problem with our network interface. I tried to reproduce the exact settings from my other laptop, so I don't understand what the problem is.

  Any idea would be appreciated with gratitude!

  Hello

  It's really not easy to say what is happening here. The functionality of the laptop is ok and it's very confusing if it works with other local wireless networks.

  I recommend putting your access point to the factory without some specific parameters settings and try to connect it.

  Sorry, but I don? have another idea.

• Tecra 9100 - BIOS block 1 damaged and the update of the BIOS?

  Hello

  I have an old Tecra 9100 with years of quality service, and it is my first problem, but is a great, after a forced restart the display shows the message BIOS 1 damaged block. I tried to fix the BIOS upgrade to the latest version I found, the 1.6 one, but it is a version of Windows (to upgrade a Toshiba computer I think) and when I try to run it in another computer to generate a floppy and upgrade the BIOS drive, I can't, because a common message from modules of Toshiba.

  Its there any floppy BIOS image - archive I can download to perform the BIOS update the BIOS?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  All you can find is stuff on the Toshiba support page. I don't know where you live, but try to contact nearest Toshiba authorized maintainer.
  They have access to the database of Toshiba and they can get it for you. Call and ask for help. I'm sure they will help you fix this BIOS.

• Customer password-Toshiba Tecra 9100 Setup

  Hello:

  I have an old Tecra 9100 and I need to access the configuration, I wrote to Toshiba Spain provide data on my computer and from there I was forwarded to a different email client and atencionn the truth is that, after nearly two months now, however, no one has contacted me!

  On the page to access this forum is reported that if the user is logged on the Club, among other things, will receive the password if necessary.

  I am really very disappointed with the service that it provides to its customers and Toshiba but I am about to buy a new one, I have serious doubts have emerged whether he should opt for a Toshiba.

  If anyone can help me write in Spanish, my post is [email protected] address

  Saludos,

  Rafa

  Hello Siegen

  I am very interested to understand your problem and try to help but I really didn t understand your problem. Of course, my English isn't the best, but I hope you can clearly explain what you want to know about this old notebook.

  BIOS password has this oldie and now, you don't have access to it now?
  Is your laptop or you bought one?
  Here you can ask what you want and I'm sure that you can chat with other owners of Toshiba laptops on your problems.

  I have two of them and I am very satisfied. Support and customer service are on the high level. So I'm really interested about your problem and the reasons why you think that the service is not good for you.
  I mean, for each question, there must be a logical explanation.

  I am quite often here and you want to discuss with other people. If the last comment on the propaganda is somewhat strange to me.

• Tecra 9100 - BONES recovered but still no sound

  Hello world

  I still have problems with the sound on my m T9100 and it seems that other people have the same.

  I bought the laptop with dead mobo then had another to replace and not laid out fresh installation of XP Pro Sp3 and its place and running problem, but no sound.
  After reading the other discussions on the topic, I used my Toshiba Recovery discs and all is well but still no sound.

  I tried to update the drivers for the card his Yamaha but still not good. So I got another sound card and knowing that he s a good.
  I mounted it but guess what no sound, at the moment its running Xp pro but I n t updated all the service packs.

  If I used the recovery disks surely it should work because the way you would a obtained again! I m lost now and don t know what to do.

  If I uninstall Yamaha altogether and restart I get found new hardware audio controller. Can I get found new Yamaha sound device, and then get Yamaha didn't install and could not function.

  Ideas please fly

  Hello

  The problem is that your Yamaha sound card driver does not support the SP1 or SP2.

  You said that you have installed XP Pro and Sp3.
  SP3 can be installed ONLY if SP2 has been installed too so the reason why you n her t get is clear; compatibility issue between the Member States of service packs and pilot of his Yamaha.

  Please see the page of the European driver Toshiba. In the Archive-> Tecra-Tecra-Tecra 9100 > 9xxxx-> driver sound >, you will find two different its XP drivers.

  Try to update!

• Tecra 9100: Media Test failure - check cable then turns off

  Hello

  I have a Tecra 9100 and I got it at low cost and hoping to make it work for my son to do his homework on but its got a problem.

  First he came without a hard drive (on order) then when I turn it on I get + media test check the cable failure then it stops.
  I ve disabled boot from LAN and set the default Bios and tried to boot from the CD drive that starts to install ok (I know he won t get far because I ve without HARD drive)

  But he died just completely sometimes in the beginning, sometimes at half way.

  One can shed some light on the subject.

  Thanks rob

  Maybe its overheating? Search for dust in the radiator. You can blow the dust using a can of compressed air.

  Also test the memory. You can get memtest www.memtest.org and put it on a floppy disk or a CD.

• Tecra 9100: Get general i/o failure at startup

  Hello.
  No one knows where, in England, I can buy a card of e/s for a Tecra 9100. Get general i/o failure at startup. Reconstruction has not changed this message.
  See you soon

  It might not b advice to u this problem. Something similar happened to me some time ago when I lent my laptop to my neighbor's daughter. No matter what I did it just would not start. I even updated the BIOS etc nothing works. In the end, I discovered that it was because someone had to drink n eat everywhere on the keyboard. I took part, the keys to clean the base (u should try this step first), it still does not work, ultimately a kind person has donated an old keyboard of its storeroom Office (not hard to replace just delete the band). After replacing...

  It started beautifully...

  Let us know if this info is helpful.
