Question on the disk anti-shock HARD on Equium A100-147

Don't Equium A100 - 147 HDD have the same shock of the A120 series?

Hello

Sorry, but the Equium A120 is unclear to me. Where did you find information on this laptop and HARD shock anti-mecanisme disc?

I found some info on the new feature called Toshiba EasyGuard.
Protection of hard drive (HDD) a feature of Toshiba EasyGuard is designed not to damage the hard drive and disks of data caused by the shock, fall or vibration.
This feature can be found in the device under the section manager system devices as driver of Toshiba HDD protection shock sensor.
But unfortunately, I don t find anything similar on the Equium A100

  • How to reset the disk volume quota hard C

    Original title: Win XP volume quota

    I'm a partitioning of a HARD drive with win XP service pack 3.

    How reset the disk volume quota hard C, I can not get access to quota controls?

    Size of the disk, it's all the 100 GB, I can see on C is 54 GB. you will need to access the other 50 GB.

    1. What do you mean by "unpartitioning" a disc?  If you mean that you remove some partitions on a physical disk in order to have more space in a remaining partition, you should know that you will not be able to extend the partition system (usually c :)), even if there is unallocated space on the disk unless you use a third-party disk management tool.  Windows XP cannot do with its native tools.

    2. are you sure you really want to use disk quotas?  It would be unusual in their homes.
    2B. which means you that you cannot 'access' to quota controls?  You see the tab "Quota"?  Are you logged on as a user who has privileges?

    3. where are you looking that see you C 54 GB but think you should see 100 GB?

  • Equium A100-147: I get an error during the recovery procedure

    Hi again,

    I had trouble with my equium a100-147.
    I tried a restore, but the disc is scratched so I phoned in ESL and it snet me a new recovery image.

    I tried the new recovery disk and am now errors when I boot the disk.

    error is

    "internal error crc file: \WINDOWS\$NtUninstallKB895200$\msdtctm.dl.

    any suggestions are welcome. get really annoyed with my machine as my warranty expired only one month

    Thank you

    Hmm... I studied a bit and it looks a bit like a malfunction of the partition.
    It would be desirable to boot from the original CD of Microsoft XP and to start the repair console.
    Then you could try these various commands which help to repair the boot manager, repair errors, locate bad sectors and recover readable information.

    -fixboot
    -fixmbr
    -bootcfg /rebuild
    -chkdsk /r

    If this does not help, you should erase the entire partitions and must format the HARD drive in NTFS file system. Then access the BIOS and set it to the default value.
    Once this procedure tries to start again on the new recovery CD!

    Good bye

  • Equium A100-147 replacement hard drive

    Hello

    I got a toshiba Equium A100-147 by a friend. The only problem is that it comes without a hard drive, because he still destroyed his old hdd to protect its personal and professional data.

    I saw in a local computer store a disk sata hard very good price for only? Â £38 it's a 160 GB w Digital Scorpio 5400 RPM 8 MB Cache S - ATA HDD laptop someone knows if it will work or this laptop does it work-specific hdd?

    Looking forward to any help you guys can give

    Hello

    Of course you need a compatible HARD drive.
    There are two different standards of HARD drive. SATA and IDE

    You need the HARD drive with the SATA interface. I think the original HARD drive was 100 GB.
    So a 120 GB and maybe a 160 GB SATA HDD should also be compatible.

    As far as I know the HARD drive slot was placed at the bottom of the unit and a screw secures the plastic cover.
    It of really not difficult to replace the HARD drive and I think that the details could be found in the user manual.

  • Equium A100-147-glitch-pop-crack if the sound is muted

    Hello.

    I have an Equium A100-147 with Vista home Premium SP1 and 1 GB of RAM.

    Recently I get a glitch-pop-crack from time to time even if the audio output is cut.
    Have no idea what could be the cause?
    I'm more or less certain that everything is up-to-date.

    Thanks in advance.

    I never heard a question also and now I can t say what's the reason for this. :(

    You have the same problem on external speakers?
    What operating system do you use?

    Perhaps you need to update the audio driver you can find on the Toshiba site:

  • Equium A100-147 - Native resolution on the external LCD display does not work

    Hello

    My Equium A100-147 has 1 VGA and 1 S-Video output, so I use the VGA output on an external LCD monitor with a native resolution of 1680x1050@60hz, but integrated graphics Intel 945 card doesn t give me the correct resolution to choose for this monitor, the closest is 1600 x 1200 and some weird widescreen resolutions other that make my monitor see the scaling an ugly picture.

    So I tested another external monitor with a native resolution of 1920 x 1200 resolution closest gave me Intel drivers is 1920 x 1080, even the installation of two drivers of monitors, remove and reinstall the driver and same formatting the machine and reinstall everything from scratch gave no different results.

    I have another laptop MSI Wind with the same graphic card built in and the same version of the pilot, and the laptop detects both the monitor and the good resolutions for them, this isn't a problem of Monitor driver.

    Seems to me that is a problem with the S-video output, which makes this mess, but there is no way to disable it in the BIOS or any other place in Device Manager I still seem.

    Can someone give me some advice for what can do?
    Thank you!

    Hello

    You cannot choose the preferred resolution because the graphics chip does not support this external resolution or the installed graphics driver is not contained in this resolution. The two cases are possible.

    If you want to know if your graphic chip supports this resolution and then take a look at the user manual and check it.

    If the chip of the graphics card would support this resolution and you will not be able to choose, then that would mean that the graphics driver does not support this resolution.

    But first he must find out what external resolutions are supported by the GPU.

  • Equium A100-147 - bought the bad battery

    My Equium A100-147 is about 3 years now and won't hold its charge longer than 10 minutes so I bought a used one on eBay for a broken machine.
    The battery itself is quite new in terms of use-life, his laptop computer that failed!

    Been declared as Toshiba equium laptop battery but it is of course many variants.
    My battery model number is: PA3399U-2BRS 10.8V 4000mAh

    EBay battery model number is: PA3384U-1BRS 14.8V 4300mAh and nealy twice the size! (Could someone tell me models that suit so I can sell it on)

    My mistake!

    Pete has soon.

  • Satellite U405D-S2874: Question on the potential problem of hard disk

    Trying to fix a Satellite U405D-S2874 for a friend.
    As a first step, that it won't turn. Once I have re-seated hard drive, it turned on and starts very well.

    However, he still intermittently will not be powered from a power off State. I get a few indicators as power, load, etc., but at least I see Satellite logo light up, I know that it won't start/turn on fully and I get nothing on the screen.

    What is a problem with the hard drive, or the connection of drive hard, or...? I was wondering if we buy a new hard drive online, that will fix the problem.

    Thank you
    John

    > What is a problem with the hard drive, or the connection of drive hard, or...? I was wondering if we buy a new hard drive online, that will fix the problem

    I put t think that this problem could be linked to the defective HARD drive.
    Usually, the laptop must be able to turn on and the BIOS splash screen should be visible even if the HARD disk is defective.

    Moreover in most cases a message or underscore flashing appears on the screen if the HARD drive is malfunctioning

    However, it is possible to check the status of the HARD drive.
    Download the tool called Drive Fitness Test and test the HARD drive by using this software.
    If some errors would be detected, then you must replace the HARD drive.

    But if the HARD drive is ok, then I would recommend checking the RAM modules first.
    Test the laptop with a test module. Try the two slots.

    If it would not help you, then a motherboard must be verified but generally it is a work of a technician for laptop

  • Question about hard drive replacement on Equium A100-147

    My hard drive is only 60 GB with 2 GB of ram. Any body know if it is possible to upgrade the disk hard at, say 120 GB or more information on this model.
    If so where can she come from please?

    Hello

    I put t see any reasons why the 120 GB HARD drive should not work.
    The A100 series is a new series of laptop and controller HDD & BIOS should support these dimensions.

    But very important, is that you use a HARD disk with compatible interface and supported.
    As far as I know the laptop supports SATA HDD.

    Best regards and have a nice day ;)

  • New hard drive Equium A100, need drivers wireless

    Hello
    I just updated the hard drive to ny and xp instead of vista has added to my laptop.
    I cannot now connect to the internet (wireless option is not even showing as available in network connections) and next to the ethernet in devices, there is a yellow question mark and a mark of exclamtion beside him.

    I checked the drivers download page, but there is so much to choose from for download.

    Can someone tell me who I need?
    In addition, a link to the drivers for my sound card would be extremely useful as those who seem too gone too!

    I hope you can help!

    > I cannot now connect to the internet (wireless option is not even showing as available in network connections) and next to the ethernet in devices, there is a yellow question mark and a mark of exclamtion beside him.
    You certainly have the WLan driver.

    You will find all Wlan drivers:

    Sorry but there are a number of models of Equium A100 and therefore it s not possible to tell which driver WLan you have without knowing the model number.

  • The speakers click when the fan starts and stops Equium A100-147

    I recently bought the 100-147 satellite and noticed that a click comes from the speakers (or headphones or external speakers) when the fan starts up and even when the fan stops. Sometimes it s quite remarkable, other times not so remarkable.

    Everyone can hear that click? If it's normal, I can live with that, otherwise I will return it for repair. Any comment please?

    In addition, it seems slow at startup and shut down. Put into service takes 2 minutes and 35 seconds, and stop to 33 seconds. Is this normal bearing in mind, it is running MCE? I have loaded additional software such as Itunes, Nero, Office 2000, Photoshop 5.0 etc.

    Thank you for reading.

    Clicking noise when the fan starts or stops turning is not uncommon. On my satellite a similar sound will appear when the fans begin to turn or the HARD disk starts to spin.
    Then worry about don t, I think its OK.

    The start-up procedure can take several times when a lot of applications and software to load at the beginning. Equium A100 seems to be one of the newer laptops, and I assume that different applications Toshiba load at the beginning.
    Also an Antivirus applications could extend the startup procedure.

    You might try testing something. Disable the antivirus of loading at the beginning and check if the laptop will start faster.

    It s even with stops. All background processes that are run in the context of the operating system should be closed until the laptop shuts down completely.

  • Question about spec HDD on Equium A100-147

    I am considering buying an A100-147. Anyone know if the hard drive is SATA or IDE.

    I am also looking at the Satellite A100-207. It is more expensive to 70 pounds, but it has a larger drive (120 GB) SATA and a slightly faster processor (1.73 vs 1.6). First, is there really a difference between the satellite and Satellite channels other than the badge, quality of construction, for example? Secondly, I am likely to notice any practical difference between the two models? If this isn't the case, I'll save money!

    Thanks in advance

    Doug

    Hello

    In my opinion it's the right price for this device. If you check the specs the unit has Wide XGA TFT color of beautiful 15.4 TruBrite display "(1280 x 800), 120 GB of HARD drive." In any case before you buy the laptop please make sure what you want to do with it. If you like game then this device is perhaps not the best because of the shared memory graphics card. The unit has also a Bluetooth module or internal microphone.
    I put t know how is this important to you, but for that price you laptop very nice.

    Graham, if you think that this device has all that you need for the job go! ;)
