Re: USB on Satellite A100 doest work.

Hi all!

I have a problem with my USB here too. I have a toshiba Satellite a100-635. I recently made some terribly wrong, and I had to take my laptop in a shop who fixed it. They had reset my laptop, and now I have a problem. My USB ports don't work at all, if I put something in, the laptop seems not to notice, so tried a few things but it still does not work. I tried to put many things into my USB but nothing works! I looked for my restore CD, but I couldn't find it!

Need help

Hello

> I looked for my restore CD, but I couldn't find it!
This stupid s because situation that it is advisable to recover the laptop with the Toshiba Recovery CD to check if it s only a software problem.

But maybe it helps;
-Disconnect all USB devices for laptop
-Access to Device Manager
-In order to enable Show hidden devices
-Expand USB controllers and remove hubs root USB and Device Manager USB host controller
-Reboot the laptop

After restarting again the operating system must install the USB drivers and the USB ports should be recognised again.

Please check also if the XP SP2 has been installed on your drunks.

  • BSOD crash to the device USB unplug - Satellite A100

    Hello world

    On my new Toshiba Satellite A100 laptop right out of the box (pre-installed Windows XP MCE), I installed a USB device (a Line 6 POD XT live guitar amp modeling unit). I used the latest drivers available. The instrument is duly recognized and properly installed. I can use it properly.

    Only when I unplug it, or simply turn off... bang! blue screen crash. There is no icon 'Remove hardware safely' available, since it is not a unit of storage memory. Also, it used to work just fine (plug/unplug) on my previous laptop satellite I just replaced.
    Something with media center edition?

    Thanks in advance for your messages.
    Please help me!

    Hello

    Don t think that it s something wrong with MCE, but you know; nothing is impossible.
    The blue screen of death appears mainly due to hardware failure or serious software compatibility issues.

    Try to update the BIOS. Maybe that changes anything.
    Alternatively, you can try to disable the function of the USB ports to save energy. You can do this in the properties of the USB port

    Additional I would recommend contacting the manufacturing of USB device support.
    Maybe these disorders are known for guys

    Hello

    Eventually the permit economy option on the USB port of food may be responsible for these issues. What do you think?
    In the device manage you could select the USB ports, and please check the properties.
    Nowhere, you should find a tab with the power save option. I recommend you to disable.

    On the Microsoft Knowledge base, I read some really useful article on USB with SP2 issues. Try to search in the page.

    PS: Have you installed all the drivers of Toshiba in the right order? I heard that the installation of the chipset might help.

  • Satellite A100: webcam works does not for windows live messenger on Vista

    I recently lost my picture when working for video calls in windows live messenger, the sound of two ways and I can see them, but no one can see me.
    I also bought an external webcam, and it does not work either.

    When I go to Device Manager it says that the two cams don't work properly.
    I tried to update the drivers but they are up-to-date.
    I wonder if it's a problem of Windows live or Toshiba.
    I use Windows Vista Home Premium and the new version of messenger.

    > I also bought an external webcam and it doesn t work either.
    > When I go to Device Manager it says that the two cams don't work properly

    For me, it looks like a windows system problem.
    Usually two webcams operate independently from each other and so I don t think that it is a webcam driver problem I think that it s windows or windows live messenger problem
    Maybe something confused keys registry or files may be some updates to update or similar

    In your case, I recommend you to uninstall the software of webcam software, internal external webcam and the windows live messenger.
    Then, you must clean the BONES and the registry tool like CCLeaner cleaning, for example. It the free tool.

    After this, reinstall the Chicony webcam software and test functionality without installation of windows live messenger.
    If the webcam will be functions then you could install the windows live messenger again.

  • How long is the battery on the Satellite A100-813 work time

    Hello
    Could you please tell me battery time of this model?
    For the moment I can use only for max 3 hours, is that correct?

    Hello

    your 'just 3 hours' are really long. I wonder what battery pack you have? The 9-cell 6000 mAh?

    First to answer your question: Yes it's okay, 3 hours are really good for your machine and if it s really your runtime, then I can confirm.

    The other thing is if you could tell me what battery pack you have. You should just take out the battery to the rear of your machine and write what is written on the sticker.

    Would be grateful. :)

  • Satellite A100 screen backlight works, but no display

    Just in the process of establishing a Satellite A100 that works very well through the connection of the external monitor but when switched over to using Fn + F5 LCD screen, the backlight turns on but there is no display at all, just a black screen lit.

    I suspect it is the screen that is past and not on the cord (have a screen on order) so will update here but I just thought that I would keep you updated on the progress.

    Has anyone else had this error?

    Steve

    Hello Steve

    The fact is that your laptop is a malfunction of the equipment, and it must be fixed by replacement. To ask if anyone has had this fault won't help you a lot. You need to fix it anyway.

    My question is: might want to fix you alone?

    It will be really interesting to know where you're trying to connect the USB mouse. Can you send description of mouse models please?

    [http://i39.tinypic.com/rw4f8p.jpg]

    Hello

    You should try to remove the devices that they are marked with a yellow exclamation point. Start Notepad, and then install the latest drivers from the Toshiba site.

    If the virus has destroyed an important system files that it s is no longer possible to install a driver and you need to reinstall Windows using the Toshiba recovery disc.

    Did you create the Toshiba Recovery disk? You can do this with the Toshiba recovery disc creator, which is preinstalled on your laptop. Maybe you are able to do this at the moment.
    In addition, you reinstall Windows using the recovery of HARD drive option. So go to the advanced boot menu and select Repair my computer. Some Windows files will be loaded and then you can choose the Toshiba Recovery option and follow the instructions on the screen.

    If you can t create the recovery disk, you must order a new Toshiba directly:

  • Satellite A100-062 - USB mouse does not work

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A100-062.

    I've never been able to get a USB mouse to work with her.
    The OS is Vista Home Premium, whenever I have plug in a USB mouse, the operating system detects a device has been connected to the USB port, but eventually the message material has not installed successfully.

    So I have to rely on the touchpad, the problem seems to be limited to mice only, I've successfully used a USB webcam without incident.
    I tried several USB mouse with the machine exclude a problem with my original mouse.

    Has anyone else had similar problems?

    Thank you

    > So I have to rely on the touchpad, the problem seems to be limited to the mouse only, I have successfully used a USB webcam without incident.
    Looks like a problem with the USB mouse and not with the laptop or with USB ports
    I would recommend testing different mouse and using the other.

  • Satellite A100 - wireless/network not working not

    Hi all I'm new here and even though I think I know a little about PC I seem to forget that I have learned.

    I have a lappy Satellite A100, which was connected to a home network wireless and worked very well. After travel further using another wireless USB device, I would return home put on wireless and connection obtained immediately.

    On a recent trip to Bali, I discovered that there are free hot spots wireless everywhere, however I had problems with the connection on trying to connect and could hang, past my expertise so went to a guy who has tinkered with Lappy I wss then you connect wherever I went, great, until the return to the House.

    Put on wireless and cannot connect, I tried everything and had to resort to a cable connection.

    I noticed when you use Toshiba cordless tool it is to see the connection to the router, but stops to Lappy with!

    It has been considered a clean install, but this seems drastic.

    * Help please *.

    Using XP or Vista?

    Try this:

    (1) what a reception/interference problem? Try moving the laptop or a Wifi access Point

    (2) download and install the latest wireless drivers from the Web from Toshiba site

    (3) try to disable the Windows Firewall or your 3rd party firewall

    (4) use static IP addresses, instead of using the DHCP (dynamic IP address)

    (5) update the Firmware of your Wifi access Point. (download from the manufacturer's website)

  • Problem with the USB ports, coast and Bluetooth in Satellite A100-237

    Hello, I own a laptop Satellite A100-237 and I have an annoying problem for quite a while now. The two USB ports in the side as well as the Bluetooth device will not work. What is the bluetooth device is it is simply not recognized by the system, as if it wasn't there (it is said the installation of the driver too) while any device I connect to USB ports side does not work either.
    The other two USB ports in the back work very well.

    Hello

    Maybe this two ports are really defective, and there is not much to say. You will get your laptop for repair, or you live with it and use the other two USB ports. Sorry, but I see your ad as a report short and not as some to ask for help.

    Bye and good luck!

  • Satellite A100-289: after 5.1 Bios Update powerfault on usb device

    Hey, I have trouble after you install the Bios Version 5.1 on a Satellite A100-289.

    First: there is NO external USB device connected!
    After the awakening of the laptop Sleepmode , I received a message in Windows XP the a power fault has been detected on one of the USB devices. A dialog box opens and I can "reset" the device.

    This only happens after that the laptop is awake in sleepmode, perhaps to Hibernate, but not when the laptop starts. It seems that everything works well, but this post makes me nervous.

    Can someone tell me, what is going in this box?

    What about Mirko

    Hello

    5.1 BIOS was designed for Vista but it should (or it works) also with XP!

    However, you could try updating the BIOS with the other BIOS version that is operating system independent
    or / and you can try to disable the power save option for USB ports in Device Manager.
