• The touchpad buttons collide on Satellite A210 - 10 c

  Hello sweet people.

  I just bought a Satellite A210-10 c - that generally surprised me pleasantly because of good performance, sound and others. BUT: The buttons on the touchpad seem to rest loosely on their spring/clip - what would be the right term for this. This makes the right button gently collide when you type (without being too rough with the buttons ;-)).

  It seems, however, that the question (I HATE such noises) may disappear after some time of use, leaving just a general trend of the touchpad area vibrate very slightly when dealt too harshly.

  It's just the way things are a budget like this book? Similar experiences and a prognosis on how things will evolve?

  Well, this is perhaps a silly question, but I still HATE rattle ;-)

  Thank you

  Hello

  seems to be a problem related to the design. So if it s just disturbing and not interrupt with your work computer, you must accept it. I hate the fans on my laptop too, they are sometimes too strong for my review.
  But the problem is, everyone has it s own subjective sense of things, and it doesn't have to be a defect of the thing we use.

  Maybe you can do the following to give your mind some peace: go to the store where purchased you´ve and try another model. Tell the salesperson you want to check something, then maybe something could be wrong with your machine. If another machine has the same "rattle" then personally 'lost' you´ve and you have the possibility to buy a keyboard and external mouse (or at least an external mouse) or get the machine and buy another model that does not "rattle". If no "rattle" appears on another machine, then you have the guarantee that you can use! :)

• Two questions with Satellite A210-1ap

  Hi, I'm from Turkey.

  My English isn't good. I think I can explain my problem.

  I have Windows XP Home edition system. I have implemented all the drivers of Windows XP Home edition for my laptop.

  But I can t set up Power Saver' and ' Modules common "(et touche d'accès rapide)."»

  Standby power error is * A Fatal error has occurred. This program will be terminated.*
  * code: 0x6A6 *.
  * Location: TPSDel.cpp (332) *.

  And my laptop is too hot.

  What can I do?

  Hello

  Satellite A210-1AP belongs to the PSAELE series.
  I checked the page of the Toshiba driver and surprise, surprise

  Toshiba Power saver and the common modules are NOT available for Win XP!

  So the answer is simple; the error message appears because you did NOT use compatible software, programs!

  Don t install the Toshiba Power saver and the common module if they are not designed for you notebook series!

• Mute or LED on / off button question on Satellite A300 - 15 c

  Hello

  I have a similar problem. I have laptop Toshiba Satellite A300 - 15 c.

  Until recently, the multimedia keys worked fine. I have assigned an exe file to the second to the left key and been happy to use the power button lights and the dimmer.exe, but a few days ago the drive key stopped turning lights and acts rather as a key to turn off/turn on the sound. I checked the SCT and the key is always associated with the dimmer.exe. I even tried to associate the key with another function, but it remains just mutes / restores the sound the sound. You have an idea as to what could cause this problem and how can I solve this problem?

  And no, apart from updates to Vista randomly I have not installed anything new since before the key drive started acting weird...

  Hello!

  Value added package regulates these buttons and in this case, you must reinstall and use the latest version on the Toshiba site:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

  As Garrett says you have to remove the old version first, restart, clean the system and then install the most recent drivers.
  I started this thread and I think it might be useful to you, because the user Raver posted a nice workaround and you should try this also:

• Satellite A210 - how to use the muldimedia with other than Media Player buttons

  Hello

  is it really not possible to use media keys (Play, Pause, FF) on top of my laptop for an application other than Windows Media Player?
  Is there a reason for this? I would like to control Winamp with this button.

  It seems quite sensless to restrict access to a SINGLE application of HUNDREDS available, a then it is the multimedia player that is not used by most people.

  I have the Satellite A210 Notbook.

  Can you tell my how to control my winamp with these buttons?

  Greetings from Robert

  Hello, Robert

  Unfortunately, there is no solution at the moment. If you check this forum, you will find several very interesting discussions on the multimedia buttons and Winamp player. The fact is that some people have found the solution for older models of laptops running Windows XP Home edition. Winamp has offered the plugin must be installed.

  We now have the new situation. Your laptop is running latest Vista OS and I didn t find any plugin that can help. Problem is that your laptop is designed for Windows Vista preinstalled OS contains all the necessary plugins for Windows media player running under the operating system preinstalled.

  Is any kind of restriction. With preinstalled operating system you can do what you want and if you can find a way to change it for that. You know very well that there are hundreds of different players in the market. You can't wait for Toshiba take a time and create a plugins for each other and satisfy customers around the world.

• Re: Satellite A210-19 WinXP SP3 Card Reader/Buletooth question f

  Hello.
  I have laptop Satellite A210-19 f and I can't read any card in my player card on WinXp SP3.
  Utils installed SD and card reader controller.
  It does not work. Also my bluetooth does not work too. After installing bluetooth monitor noething happened.

  Any suggestions?

  _Regarding SD card problem: _
  Go to Device Manager, remove the SD card reader, restart the laptop and reinstall the driver from SD card.
  The problem could be that XP drivers are not released for the A200 PSAELE series.

  In this case, you will need to use the Flash Media Driver of Texas Instruments, which was released for other series.

  _Regarding the problem of Bluetooth: _
  BT monitor is not the driver!
  You need the battery Bluetooth!

  This morning at the College, I started my laptop (satellite A210)
  After entering the password started... after 5 seconds, I got a blue screen SHORT (3 seconds)... This can happen 5 times...
  then I was really p * ssed - I booted in safe mode... do you have a system recovery (in German "systemwiederherstellung")
  After doing that my laptop has begun... but now begins the horor

  1 Explorer.exe crash so that start up - so I have to start explorer.exe mauel with the Task Manager
  2. with this also sidebar, bar SCROLLING-option AND the menu upwards on the screen... you know... the one you get with the pointer on... then it appears and you can select things like brightness, volume or energysafeoptions...
  3. opening a folder takes almost 1 minute to show its files... (totally slow!)

  I ran TuneUp2008, O & O Defrag 10-Prof. and also ESET NOD32 Antivirus with the new definition (found nothing).

  ... Yes... what to do now? ... I don't know how to start programs from the point 2. and 3. ! Please tell me how!

  Yours sincerely Nico

  What should do?
  Take the recovery CD in the CD/DVD drive and try to restore the operating system from the Toshiba Recovery CD.
  After reinstalling the laptop should run correctly if it is not a hardware problem is possible.

• Question about 1.70 - victory on Satellite A210-19 bios

  Hi all
  I have satellite A210 - 19A and I found a new victory in version 1.70 of the bios on toshiba website. Is it written somewhere of what precisely it fixed? I ve got BIOS version 1.50 now and my pc works well so I don't know if it's good to install it. I fear some strange things could happen and I know that I can't go back return old bios, or what I can?

  Unfortunately, Toshiba doesn't publish details on the improvements in the BIOS.

  But buddy note; If your laptop works properly without worries, then a BIOS update is not necessary. You should know that an update of the BIOS is always risky. Wrong or bad BIOS update procedure could damage the ROM. module
  That is why a BIOS update must be done ONLY as a last resort!

• Question about XP and drivers for Satellite A210 - 11 p

  Just bought this laptop and I am very happy with it except one thing, yes the dreaded word of Vista again.
  I was wondering if Toshiba offers all the required XP drivers and if someone has installed XP on this laptop and not had any problems.
  Thanks in advance for any help or suggestion.

  Hello

  To my knowledge, the Satellite A210 - 11 p belongs to the PSAEL series.
  I found only some common XP drivers on the Europe of Toshiba page.
  For example Wireless Lan driver, display or Bluetooth Stack driver.
  Other drivers are not available and it seems it won't be freed in the future

  But I discovered that some devices are the same that on the A200 PSAEL try the drivers in this series and maybe they will work, but this is only a suggestion and I have really not 100% sure the drivers are compatible.
  Just try everything

• Satellite A210 - question about the battery life

  I have a problem: my laptop works only 1 hour of unplugged to electricity, so my battery died after working of 55minutes (I mean I look at the pictures or typing in WORD). Is this normal? How long is the average battery life?
  My model is SATELLITE A210/1AP (4000mAh) (my laptop is new; I bought it a week ago)
  Please write how much your maximum battery work.

  It is not easy to discuss this topic. With similar activity, I can use my Satellite A200, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. I don't know how you're using your laptop, but I recommend you to use all the power settings that can make the life of the battery a little longer.

  Check the method of cooling, power profile, reduce the brightness of the display and turn off WIFI if you do not use and so on.

  You must also understand that Vista needs far more resources than Windows XP Home edition and the life of the battery under Vista is not identical with Windows XP Home edition.
