• Question about video drivers Satellite P100-257

  Hello.
  Question about video driver. Version 14.25... Works (tells... 945 GM chipset); 14.27--works but with ocassional problems (tells... 945GM/GU); version 14,29... (said 945GM/GU) - does not work at all - black screen, but you can hear sounds which tells that XP does all right.

  Why that? And what is GU? Pilot info says it is for 945GM, pilot says he's for 945GM/GU.

  All kinds of three said they are for Mobile Intel 945 GM Express chipset. Who initially my machine have said there. In section "video card" my machine said no Intel - some Calg... - don't remember exactly the name.
  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  As much as I know Satellite P100-257 supports the graphics card Mobile Intel 945GM. The code name of Intel's GM Calistoga
  This is not the same thing as the chipset Intel 945GM/GU. Both are different and so the graphics drivers are not totally compatible!

  The Intel page provides some interesting info on these chipsets:
  Mobile Intel Express Chipset 945GM

  Unfortunately, I have not found anything on the 945GM/GU.

• Question about temperature internal Satellite A300 ND1

  Hello

  I have a question about the temperature of the standards it of ok for my laptop and what is the normal temperature and how can I keep it low?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  It's not easy to say what a normal temperature could be.
  The temperature is not always the same and it depends on the use of the laptop.
  Usually, the temperature would increase while gaming or running applications high performance. Why? Because all devices such as the CPU and GPU would focus the heat dissipation and this leads to a higher temperature.

  > How can I keep it low
  Very simply, you can keep still low level, but you can make sure there is enough free space around the laptop to ensure good air circulation.
  Also don t use the laptop on your knees etc in order do not obstruct cooling fans.

  It s also advised to clean the fans from time to time using the jet of compressed air. These sprays are really useful and could buy in the stores of different computers.

• Re: A few questions running on my Satellite A500

  First of all, I apologize for the terrible thread title. I couldn't come up with something better.

  For the last two weeks, my laptop started to have problems. Whenever I have block my computer while I have a page of internet explorer open, I get the message "not responding" for her after I opened the lock. Why is this?

  I also have a most frustrating problem. Whenever I type online, on Facebook or on a forum (like this one) keyboard seems down sometimes and blow up a letter from time to time. So I can not type quickly because some letter always appear on the screen even if I'm certain that I pressed the button.

  And the computer seems working slower these days. Before, when I clicked on a folder or the document immediately open Word. But now, it takes a few seconds.

  Are there problems with the laptop? Or my first two problems are caused by Internet Explorer?

  To be honest I don t understand this problem with internet explore. Have you noticed the same thing with other browsers?

  Typing question try to disable the touch pad using the FN + F9 key combination. Maybe you touch touchpad accidentally while typing. Check it out.

  Slow laptop Satellite laptop A500 is not the latest model cell phone, and I imagine that use you it for a while. I guess that your operating system must be optimized and cleaned.
  For these purposes, you can use different applications.

  If you need help with this let us know.

• A few questions about the feature Satellite A300D - 14 p

  I have the model Satellite A300D - 14 p a month. 2-year warranty. I have a few questions and ask for help and suggestions I have to do?

  * My quality of the camera * is VERY poor, with a lot of light on, I can get image quality generally ok. Inside, next to turned on the two options, night mode, or backlight compensation, I can hardly see my face, very dark and very bad quality. Second problem, it is a blue led light, it is annoying because half of the picture is always blue, somehow made light photo half which is always blue:(((j'ai utilisé modèle portable L300 série (moins cher que le mien) with the same device and that blue light, it works perfectly :()

  * Autonomy and start up Vista OS *? In little 1.5 hour energy saving mode? Surf train and nothing else... I asked Toshiba support here in Serbia in this respect and they told me that it is normal and measure the battery life (2,... h) by specifications, this is when my screen is off and computer do nothing? They also said that starting normal time for Vista OS is maybe more around 1.45 min?

  If I install win XP is it possible to get longer battery life?

  I have to go in service Toshiba or what?

  Thank you very much and sorry if I'm boring :)))

  Nikola

  Hay Nikola

  You are not boring at all and welcome to this forum.

  I don't know where to start. ;).

  I have Satellite A300-1LI in front of me and I use it about a month now. Startup time is very interesting theme and with a good configuration, you can optimize and make much shorter as with factory setting. Please read a very interesting thread about it under http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=134947
  Do the same with your Satellite and I hope that you will be satisfied.

  Battery operating time? I have to say that information about two hours are realistic and I can confirm that. The same thing on my Satellite. But to be honest for mobile computing, it's OK. I've changed several notebooks and just business laptop Tecra had to linger battery operation. What you can do is check the Toshiba support site and look for info on the more powerful battery. I don't know, but you can use the battery (Li-ion, 9 cell, 6000mAh).

  On cam, I can't say much. It works on my Satellite on OK and I am satisfied. OK quality is not the same as for integrated cam but good external webcams it's OK.
  If you are not satisfied with trying to speak with the nearest service or try to compare it with some other Satellite by your local dealer.

  If Nikola, if you have more questions please post again.

  Have you checked the manual for more information? I downloaded it on the Toshiba site because I have another model and I can find the following information on the LED power:
  + In normal operating mode, the power light is blue (depending on the model you have purchased). If the system is in Standby Mode, the LED flashes orange, while the light is off when the computer is turned off or in Hibernation mode. +

  I put t know if this information is useful for you, but if the laptop is connected with the adapter AC/DC battery will not be used.

  Hello

  I need to update the drivers to display on my Satellite A200-BB5. Vista is the operating system.

  I just bought a LCD of Samsung Syncmaster P2250 monitor and am unable to set the resolution properly configure it to work with my laptor snd. I get the following message shows that sense when I'm trying to set the resolution of the screen:

  "Cannot use the current graphics display driver. It was written for an earlier version of Windows and is no longer compatible with this version of Windows. The system has been started using the default VGA driver. »

  Any help with this would be appreciated. I don't know much about computers in general. Talked to a technician at work and it tells me that my drivers are probably unhinged and I should be able to find the updates online.

  Hello

  It seems that the Satellite A200-BB5 belongs to the Canadian series for Toshiba laptop.

• Satellite A500-040 - too noisy CPU fan

  My CPU fan runs too fast and too loud. The fan speed is still 73 percent. Although I have not used all the programs, the CPU fan speed is always 73%. Never speed is made once it has reached 73%. Even the CPU temperature is about 35%.
  I tried to do as a result of the actions:
  It solves not 1 updating bios/drivers-
  2 changing settings of the power plan does not solve
  3 cleaning cooling module does not solve

  Can someone help me?

  Unfortunately there is not much you can do about it. Cooling fan is controlled automatically. I put t know which options have the power that you have changed, but please try to change the option for cooling method. You can find it in the advanced power options > Toshiba power Saver saver > cooling method.
  Use the optimized battery option. This should reduce the activity of fan cooling.

• Question about BIOS for Satellite Pro A10 files

  Hello

  I have Toshiba Satellite Pro A10 and later yesterday, he won't, he past the TOSHIBA start screen and then black with a flashing cursor, it didn't leave me in advanced settings or the settings of the BIOS, a friend told me I need to Flash BIOS, I came across the site and found only a BIOS update and management told me to use the floppy drive , he said when I unzip the file I get an .exe file which I opened and it will give me three files, one for the CD ROM, one for the floppy drive and the third I don't remember, but it didn't happen, when I unzipped the files in a temporary folder, but I never had the files.

  I think I had to have it on my own laptop, and then it would be extracted properly, because my laptop does not work I can't do and even if I put the files on a disk, they are too big.

  Then...

  Where can I get the files from the BIOS that I can put on a floppy disk and then I can boot from that disk and it will fix the BIOS?

  Thank you

  Hello

  OK, follow these steps:

  Burn the file bios to CD on a CD, boot from it and update your bios. It's a simple and easy way. I Don t understand why it shouldn´t work, given that I ve updated my bios in the same way. I burned the image to CD and booted from this CD.

  Please answer perhaps you just made a mistake when you think to (I sometimes do too much, not often, but it happens..)  :)
