Re: Microphone completely after installing XP on Satellite Pro P300

My father bought a Satellite Pro P300 that I went down to Windows XP by using the included CD/DVD.
Later, we found that the internal microphone is very quiet when we tried to use it.
We need to yell into the microphone to get any sound at all, more like sounds random blip. Type the microphone sounds more scratch.

All other sound effects are great. speakers work fine. We connected an external microphone to the mine in the laptop and video calls worked without problem, the problem is only with the internal mic.
I saw that someone else has the same problem in the forum (link: [http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=33844&tstart=0]), but it does not say how or if this problem has been resolved.

I would really appreciate if someone could give me the fix or a link to the fix to our problem other than plug in an external microphone.

Hello

Windows XP supports a microphone amplifier. Have you enabled it?

Go to control panel-> Audio & Sound Devices-> advance tab press Volume button

Optionally, select advanced controls

Then you should see the volume of the microphone. Please set it to a higher value.
In addition, press the advanced under the microphone button.

Here, you can mark the micro amp.

  • Unknown devices after installing Vista on Satellite Pro U200

    Yesterday, I installed vista ultimate, but unfortunately my U200 is not compatible with vista because the tile would make me believe.
    What does not work I have identified to date:
    -Speakers and headphone jack
    -Function keys
    -Fingerprint reader

    Almost any of the included toshiba software installs even after disabling "control of Application Security."

    Does anyone know where I can get the new drivers and software or when they become available?

    Otherwise really like Vista. It is very reactive and simplifies many tasks. This is very pretty too, but this isn't my priority.
    Any help gratefully received
    See you soon

    This might help others with similar problems. I was able to get evrything working except my shortcut keys.

    Hello

    The European driver Toshiba page provides two audio Conexant drivers for this model of laptop.
    + Driver sound + 4.36.10.0
    + Driver sound + 4.83.1.0

    I recommend the new version 4.83.1.0
    Uninstall the old driver first in the Device Manager.

    Restart the device and install the new downloaded drivers.

    Hope this helps to get better sound quality :)

  • Satellite Pro P300 - his axe with Win XP installed

    Starting with Satellite Pro P300 with VISTA everything was fine including the sound.

    For other reasons, I'm back to Win XP and noise started to sputter and example music was chopped.
    After you have installed the latest driver everything was going well again, at least for a few days.

    The same error came once again, starting with a chopped sound when starting Win XP. Reinstall the latest version of the driver does not help.

    Is anyone able to give me a hint?

    Thank you
    Benjamin

    Have you checked the sound settings in Windows? Maybe there's something wrong.

    You have installed the latest driver on the Toshiba site?

  • Satellite Pro P300 - what is the maximum RAM I can install?

    What is the maximum RAM you can install in the PSPCDA-01L00D Toshiba Satellite Pro P300?

    It is not listed in the specifications.

    Hello!

    It seems therefore that the laptop is already upgraded to the maximum RAM.

    I think that 4 GB of RAM should be sufficient for all applications on a laptop at the moment. :)

  • Satellite Pro P300 restarts a few minutes after the stop

    Hello

    I'm unable to download the update of the BIOS for a Toshiba Satellite Pro P300 PSPCDE (WIN 3.00), the reason being that I wonder a user name and password to download the file!

    The laptop has this annoying problem to revive a few minutes after the laptop has stopped, and that's why I want to update the BIOS to see if it suits him. Laptop is running XP Pro (downgraded from Vista).

    Ideas how I can get the update of the BIOS and will it solve the strange rebooting problem?

    Paul

    Where are you trying to download the BIOS?
    I always download my updates on the official website of Toshiba and if it doesn't work maybe you should wait a day.
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    To be honest, I doubt that the BIOS update will solve this problem. I often read about this problem and you can solve if you disable the wake on LAN function in the BIOS and Windows (properties of the wireless network card).

  • Satellite Pro P300-1F1 - how to install a second HDD?

    Hello

    I would like to install a second hard drive to my Satellite Pro P300-1F1.

    I would like to know if I need a "cellar" special to set the hard drive inside the Bay? Where could I get such a thing in Germany (near Cologne)?

    On the inside of the drive Bay cover HARD are four plastic pins that are so long that it is impossible to close the cover when a hard drive is built in.
    What I have to just shorten or do I need a new cover or pins work like a kind of attachment?

    Thank you very much for your help!

    Is there a connector from the HARD drive in the second span?

    If this isn't the case, then you can not install a HARD drive in any case. The second span is because he shares a common design with models that have a second HDD of the factory.

  • Satellite Pro P300 - install the graphics driver

    Hi all

    This is my last resort before I throw this laptop through the window - and it is a gift for someone for Christmas.

    I recently bought a Satellite Pro P300 - model PSPC1E-005008EN, 2 GB RAM, 17 "display and Intel GMA X 3100 video card.

    As a very experienced engineer, same one that makes me tear my hair out.

    When the bike video car is installed with the ATI drivers what we call, or drivers intel I get an error 12 code saying there are not enough resources to launch pilots.

    When I discovered the Device Manager with the hidden devices turned on that I have 2 video cards, 1 that works properly and 1 in the error state.

    I uninstalled the drivers, all the video cards software related and reinstalled all, or just the drivers and still no joy. I have a laptop that shows no model model of monitor or video card in display properties and the resolution doesn't go above 1024 x 768, and the image is so bright.

    Can anyone help?

    Hello!

    Your P300 has an Intel GM965 graphic card so I put t know why you want to install ATI drivers?

    I think the best way is to reinstall Windows with the Toshiba recovery disc.

    Or you try the graphics driver from Toshiba:

    Hello!

    It should be possible to install Vista 64-bit on the laptop but I could be that you will get not all drivers.
    For now, doesn t support and 64-bit drivers Toshiba offers but you can search on other sites:

    Here are some examples:

  • Satellite Pro P300 - impossible to activate the built-in microphone

    I bought a Satellite Pro P300 some 2 months and so far so good.

    It has a webcam which I really thought that I would have any use for it but now find that I have.

    The camera works fine but I cannot activate the built-in microphone.

    Can someone point me in the right direction please

    Hello

    You will need to start the webcam software if you want to use the internal microphone too.
    The point is that the internal MIC is connected with the internal webcam and webcam software handles both devices.
    Also check if the internal mic has been correctly enabled in the webcamsoftware

    In addition, I would recommend updating the audio driver.

    Best regards

  • Satellite Pro P300: Error after installation of battery 8.00.02 BT WIN 7 32-bit

    Hello

    You did a clean install of Windows 7, or you have upgraded the Vista to Win 7?

    I recommend a new installation of Windows 7. It's better, because an upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 could leave some junk on the HARD drive and some tools/drivers Vista is not compatible with Win 7 OS.

    So to do a clean install of Windows 7, then download and install the new BT stack from this page:

  • Cannot install recovery image on satellite Pro P300-1EX

    Hello.

    I have never had many problems with a single laptop in my lifetime of work. I'm almost ready to throw this thing out the window. I have a satellite pro p300-1EX.

    I wanted to do an install new os just to make things a bit faster for the customer, it was 8 hours ago.

    First, I installed a Home Windows OEM pre 32B version. Then I saw that the CD would not work.

    So, Okay - I'll bring back factory default:

    (1) there is no link repair starting and pressing F8
    (2) there is no HARD drive untilty when you press 0 - that does nothing
    (3) there is no recovery console, by putting in an OEM version of windows vista
    (4) I try to download recovery disk creator bloody software and get this - it does not work. It creates a shortcut to a file that's not here yet. TRDCLcher.exe, can you, im speechless.

    So now, I have to spend £30 of my own money by obtaining a disc sent to me? I don't think so.

    So, what can I please? It was a horrible experience. Nothing works. The recovery partition, I see is still in tact, it's just like the laptop doesn't recognize it. Instealing the OEM deleted all tools by default, but I can't NOT THE DOWNLOAD.

    Please, please help me.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Maybe it sounds stupid now, but this is simply.

    Here's my explanation of how it works:
    Almost 4 or 5 years Toshiba offers laptops without recovery DVD but with recovery image stored on the HARD drive. As much I know about former Satellite/Satellite Pro P300 recovery image was recorded on the second partition of HARD drive in the folder named HDDRecvery. This model laptop was shipped with Windows Vista.

    As you know original recovery image can be installed n in two ways:
    -You can use the recovery HARD drive installation method - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm
    -You can use the created recovery DVD disk

    HARD drive recovery facility can be made if the laptop has only factory settings. In this case in advanced startup options (F8), you will have the option to fix my computer. If the notebk has been installed with the version of the OS or any other operating system of this option won't be available more. Because of this Toshiba has preinstalled reminder with the message for owners of laptops create recovery DVDs.

    Your questions:
    > There is no link repair starting and pressing F8
    If this laptop doesn t have to factory settings it will not appear in the advanced startup options
    > There is no HARD drive untilty when you press 0 - that does nothing
    If you have European book this model with zero will not work. It only works with the United States and Austraian mobile.
    > There is no recovery console, by putting in an OEM version of windows vista
    I put t understand it. What happens when you start with the OEM version?
    > I am trying to download bloody recovery disc creator software
    If you have the European model of laptop, it can not be downloaded. This piece of software is included in the recovery image only.

    > So now I have to spend £30 of my own money by obtaining a disc sent to me
    I understand, but at least with the original recovery DVD you can install OS and all necessary things in an hour only.
    > The recovery partition, I see is still in tact, it's just like the laptop doesn't recognize it.
    Yes. Without factory settings you will not have access to these data.

    Follow these steps:
    -start your laptop and press F2 to enter the BIOS settings
    -set the BIOS to default settings and reboot the laptop
    -When the laptop reboots press F12 to get into the boot meny
    -When the boot menu appears on the screen put the original DVD of recovery in ODD
    -Choose the CD/DVD drive on the list and press ENTER
    This will force it's STRANGE to be the first boot device and you should see process on the loading screen. Click next or OK nothing change and wait for the recovery procedure starts.

    Please try it and let me know exactly what is happening.

    Symantec is a common cause of BSOD.


    I remove and replace it with Microsoft Security if you are using Windows 7 and if you win 8 or higher, use the built-in Defender.
