• The cut on my Satellite A300 and it works without a keyboard

  Hi guys,.
  I spilled half a glass of tea on my Toshiba Satellite A300. I dried quickly by opening and by blowing dry air into it. The laptop works very well with the keyboard removed but no way with the connected keyboard it will star bipping everywhere. A couple of questions here.

  (1) can I connect a keyboard external usb for awhile?
  (2) Technical Service charge me to replace the lid and the keyboard? Why the cover while plastic and metal? How is the coverage could be ruinned too? I understand the keyboard, but the cover? Give me a break.
  (3) private users can buy replacements of parts on the internet. Any address in Europe who trust someone? I pay 60 euros for the time of 5 minutes from the repairman to change its keyboard. I can do it by myself. It's not rocket science, and here a great site with instructions step by step.

  Thanks for any help, I'd really appreciate it.

  See you soon,.

  Maybe the cover is equipped with circuits attached to it? Maybe a touchpad or something like that.

  Did you ask to SAV why the lid needs to be changed?

• Satellite A300 PSAGQE - pilot after uprgading to Win 7 errors

  I have a 'Toshiba Satellite A300 PSAGQE' 2 days ago, I updated my Windows Vista to Windows 7.
  A lot of driver are ok and works without problems, but 3 drivers are makin wrong as I have noticed.

  These are;
  Toshiba Firmware link Driver ACPI\TOS1901
  Ricoh RL5C592 Memory Stick Bus Host adapt
  Ricoh SD/MMC Host Controller RL5C843

  my "FN" does not work and the lights do not go!

  I searched the internet for solutions together and saw many people having the same trouble. There are problems but no solutions...

  I hope that I can help to Chester for the problems here.

  Hi Yol_Gezer,

  To be honest, for me it doesn t sound like problems because you only need new drivers for your laptop, they are listed on the page of Toshiba:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

  You need to the card reader and driver Bluetooth I think.

  Regarding the FN and enlightenment, you must install Toshiba Value added Package. ;)

• Satellite A300-1MT: where to download for Win XP Toshiba face recognition

  Hello. I bought Satellite A300-1MT, but installed Windows Vista does not suit me.
  I am install Win XP. I found all the drivers on the toshiba web site. But cannot find Toshiba face recognition.
  Please advice me something!

  Hello

  I fear that you will not find this tool for Win XP m.
  It seems that this function can be used only under Win Vista OS.
  If page European driver of Toshiba does not provide these software for Windows XP, then you won't be able to find it on other sites

  So I see only one solution; back to Vista if you prefer to use!

• Satellite A300 - 1FC - Vista recovery without any pre-installed software

  Hello

  I bought an A300 - 1FC to German string sotres Saturn.
  It's a computer laptop nice until now the only thing that bothers me is the bunch of preinstalled software that is of no use to me.

  Is it possible to recover the plain windows only and then install all the required drivers
  and service packs manually. Or at least in a way that leaves out all the unnecessary software?

  If not I'm quite willing to downgrade - I don't like vista particularly well anyway but handset
  with the annoyment of the preinstalled software, it is certainly enough reason to get rid of him.

  Any help?

  See you soon

  Hello

  As you can see Toshiba, like all other manufacturers of portable, offers the recovery image. This recovery image contains all the necessary drivers, Toshiba has designed tools and utilities and also some additional software.

  You must understand that maybe 10% of people have knowledge of PC and they are able to configure the laptop only. I am glad that you are one of them, but you must know that this recovery image is designed for the installation of operating system simple and not complicated. There is no possibility to install clean Vista using this recovery media.

  Another way person doesn't force you to use each of them. All the unnecessary stuff, you can remove the system. Believe me I do the same thing. Your needs, you can optimize the operating system.

  Bye and good luck!

• Satellite L350 - compatibility vs AHCI mode

  I installed XP mode dual boot with Vista pre-installed on a Satellite L350-20J.

  Since I couldn't find the files needed for the process of F6 in the Matrix Storage Manager (in the section driver Toshiba L350 for XP, you get an EXE file) to use during the installation of xp in the BIOS, I changed the SATA AHCI setting in compatibility. The installation went well.

  Once XP has been installed, when I tried to run the Matrix Storage Manager driver, I got the message "this computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software. However, the chipset utility has been installed without a hitch.

  When I went back the setting of "compatibility" to AHCI in the BIOS, it may that the system does not start properly. It would direct me to screen multiple choice for safe mode, etc.

  How can I get SATA mode at this point?

  You can't do that. If you switch to AHCI mode, you must reinstall WXP.
  Simple switch will not work.

  I tested it on my Satellite A300. I installed Windows XP Home edition in compatibility mode. With AHCI mode, I got blue screen every time when I tried to start Windows XP Home edition.

• Satellite A300-1MC (PSAG8E) - get Bluetooth to work

  Hello

  I just bought a toshiba satellite a300-1mc and cannot get the bluetooth to work on it. ???

  The box says it has built in bluetooth, but even when I reinstall the bluetooth stack he will not recognize the built-in bluetooth device, it just says: connect a bluetooth device and press ok or cancel the installation? I can't take this wise because it only picks up the built-in bluetooth device?

  I checked the hardware Manager and can not still find something to do with bluetooth

  Any help would be very appreciated that I could really do with the bluetooth on my laptop.

  The box say it has bluetooth, it's why I can't work on why I can't make it work

  I'm not sure that if I deleted something... when I first got this laptop, it took about 5 minutes to start so I disabled a startup programs load... but I do not remember stop bluetooth... and I checked to see if I disabled something.

  HELP me please lol

  Rolex is right. I ve checked the specifications specification and Satellite A300-1MC is delivered without BT module. :(

• Satellite P100: How to activate the AHCI mode?

  As all you know, some laptops P100 series are equipped with a controller Intel 82801GBM SATA natively supports the AHCI and with a Fujitsu HDD which takes in charge the NCQ.

  However, the disc is forced in compatibility mode, and therefore the NCQ is disabled, resulting in a loss of performance (which is certainly necessary that laptop hard drives are generally slower than those of office).

  Unfortunately, there is no option in the BIOS which activates the AHCI mode and no tool like HWUtility that can twist that (although it wouldn't work). As far as I know, newer laptops support AHCI mode and there is also an option in the BIOS to enable it.

  Is it possible to activate the AHCI mode in our laptops beloved and make the most of our hard drives?

  Hello

  Do you think that the AHCI is disabled?
  You can run the Intel Chipset ID utility to determine if the ICH7DH SATA controller is already running in AHCI or not.

  However, I studied a little more on other forums that are a little more specific and find this:
  Activate the AHCI on Intel chipsets, without having to reinstall Windows 2000/XP

  and

  But you know, everything you make are at your own risk!

• Is it possible to move my SSD in AHCI mode without having to reinstall Windows 7?

  Before installing Windows 7, I entered the BIOS and changed my AHCI Mode IDE SDS for a reason any and I forgot to switch back. Now, I want to put in AHCI mode because it says online that AHCI mode could improve SDD/HDD performance considerably, compared to IDE mode. However, if the mode is enabled in AHCI mode, my Windows 7 will not able to start, so I continue to choose the IDE for my SDS mode.

  Is it possible to move my SSD in AHCI mode without having to reinstall Windows 7? Or is it really useful to change the return method? I have no hard drives except an SSD in my computer.

  See how you go with the options below-

  Be sure that set you the BIOS to AHCI again on restart.

  HI :)

  I have a little problem. I forgot to burn a recovery on the CD disc.
  I know that there is a special partition on my hard drive with Vista.

  How can I get there. How can I reinstall my windows as at a time of trees?

  Thank you very much

  I'm waiting for a good feedback!
  Concerning
  longplej2

  My laptop is Toshiba Satellite A300 :)

  you said that:

  Do you mean that you want to use HARD drive recovery option?
  If yes then you must press the F8 laptop computer powered on.
  Then choose fix my computer.
  Then a new window will open, here you have to choose the last option called Toshiba Recovery.

  BUT I want to completely remove vista and install once more of my Special partiction with vista on my toshiba as at first, when you're editing vista on toshiba

  HOW CAN I DO?
  Thank you very much!

  longplej!

  First of all, you should not open two threads on the same topic!

  Second, the procedure posted in the other thread and this ad above describes how to install the second HARD drive partition Vista!

  Once again;
  Press F8, choose repair my computer, choose Toshiba recovery of new open window and follow the instructions on the screen.

  After this procedure, you will get the laptop as on the first day of purchase!
