  Hello

  Satellite 5105-S501 is a laptop computer to the United States.
  That's why you need to search for drivers on the Toshiba page we:
  http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/home.jsp?NAV=download

  On this page you can find the drivers for American books. Satellite 5105-S501 is an oldie and why you must choose the option Show all to display all models of laptops.

  Regarding the broken buttons:
  As far as I know it s not possible to buy only a single button. In most cases, you will need to replace the entire keyboard.
  But for more details, you should certainly ask the Toshiba ASP in your country.

  See you soon

• Impossible to use WLAN on my Satellite 5105-s501

  Hello

  I just bought this computer.

  I don't know if the 5105 s501 is the L series - I can't find any information anywhere, maybe someone could push me in the right direction.

  I can't get the wireless to work. I can connect to the internet via a cable, but nowhere in the control panel etc it says anything wireless. FN + f8 does nothing. The intel driver in Device Manager should say something wireless? There is a red light flashing when the wireless is turned on.

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  I have big problems with my 5105-S501

  The computer is totally screwed upward, with a little help from some virus evil. Well well, anyway; I thought it would be a good time to format the HD and reinstall the operating system.

  He liked the manual says, put the cd in recovery and applications started. When I choose install, I get the message "bad work". Even thought it was the cd that I got with the computer!

  Tried to format the hard drive manually in the comand prompt, did not work. The hard drive has been used and the computer could not force it out of use.

  Put a XP pro cd in the drive and tried to install that one. I have to choose to delete the current partition to format the HD, then I got the message "system unable to perform the operation requested on the selected partition. This partition contains files of temporary facility that is required to perform the instalation.

  Tried Fdisk, did not work. Same problem as above; the hard drive is in use, so forth and so!

  Hi Peter,.

  I found something that may be interesting for you:

  When you run the recovery cd you get the error message 'bad machine '.

  The CD of Builder/Restore Configuration looks for a specific string of the DMI
  who identifies the model of the computer you are using and compare it
  information on the CD. If these two do not match error
  'machine wrongly' occurs. Your authorized Service provider can Toshiba
  Difficulty an incorrect bios corrupted or empty using a special diagnosis
  tool to rewrite the DMI string.

  If you are certain that you have the correct Configuration generator.
  CD recovery for your computer, then go to your most loved
  Toshiba authorised service provider.

  Maybe he can help you.

• Satellite 5105-S501 keyboard problem

  After that I replaced my 40 GB hard drive with a 100 GB hard drive (the old frozen drive), I had a lot of problems with my keyboard.
  When I type, I find that the letters 'i' with tab back until a strange moment, the letter 'u' can tab forward, other letters will do other strange things.

  I tried to clean under the keys, but that has not worked. It is very frustrating. (While typing this, the cursor is passed to a word in the first sentence, jumped 3 characters to the left, but also jump at the beginning of the line, really weird).

  All ideas will be highly appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Have you installed the Toshiba Recovery CD?
  This problem appears before replacing the HARD drive?
  Maybe the new HARD drive with the large size has a bad influence on the keyboard.
  I read some messages in the forum, and it seems that sometimes, a new update of the BIOS might resolve these issues.
  Please make sure you use the good BIOS and the correct procedure to upgrade the BIOS.

  The other possibility is that you did something wrong when replacing the HARD drive.

• Satellite Pro U200 - incorrect checksum error (ROM (data block))

  Hello when I run my Satellite Pro U200 Toahiba
  I have an error

  Incorrect checksum (ROM (data block))
  PRESS ANY KEY TO CONTINUES.

  Pleas Help

  The most common cause for the mistakes of "Bad Checksum" is the CMOS battery on the motherboard failure.
  The battery may be empty or could have been dead. But it's really not easy to say exactly what's wrong!

  Therefore, I recommend first to access the BIOS and set it to default settings. Don t forget to save the changes.
  More you must connect to the AC adapter and should leave it plugged during on 24 hours to recharge the battery CMOS.

  Maybe it helps to get rid of this error message.
  If it doesn't help, then you should contact a technician for laptop!

• Satellite A100 BIOS update - BAD CHECKSUM

  I've just updated my BIOS to version 6.0 that TOSHIBA said > 26/11/07 "this Bios update adds functionality to your system: Satellite A100 Toshiba 6, 00 - WIN (PSAAN).»

  My original BIOS was 5.9
  My computer works fine A100-33 but when my computer restarts, showed it to the BLACK screen.

  I noticed that it displays BAD CHECKSUM and suugested I select default BIOS but I * ignored this advice * that wanted this new Version of the BIOS.

  What means BAD CHECKSUM and what effects will have on my computer peformance please if any?

  Under the system information that is displayed for my BIOS Version/Date Phoenix Technologies LTD 6.00, 07/12/2007

  Name of the Microsoft OS? ® Windows Vista Home Basic

  Hello

  Don t worry if the message "bad checksum" will appear only once.

  'Bad checksum' means that the BIOS has been changed, rewritten or settings have been restored by default. Thus, whenever you save your bios settings, bios made a "checksum" to check the next time you start the settings were stored and all goes well. If something is wrong or has been changed, then the checksum stored since the last save a Don t match real new generated checksum.

  So if you make an update of the bios, all your settings will be modified logic - you get an error "Bad Checksum".

  Another reason for such "Bad Checksum" is an empty BIOS stack or a malfunction, so BIOS cannot keep it s settings and you will get every time you start the computer a message "Bad Checksum".

  Hello

  The real time clock battery (RTC) feeding the clock/calendar internal and the maintenance of the system configuration settings.
  This error can occur when a machine is left off for a long period of time and is the result of a depleted battery for RTC
  So first step you should try to charge this battery.

  The RTC battery, plug in the adapter and turn on the computer.
  Leave the machine for about 24 hours to ensure a full charge in the RTC battery. Please note that the RTC battery will not charge while the laptop is turned off, the adapter is connected or not.

  In the configuration screen of the BIOS press the [Home] key to restore the default values, and then press the [End] key to save and exit, and then press [Y] to confirm and reboot the system.
  Then set the date and time in Windows

  As long as Windows starts, you will see an error message about an "invalid system time." Go ahead and click 'OK' to clear the error dialog box.
  Open Control Panel, and open the command 'Date and time' by double-clicking its icon. Set the date and time, then click OK to save.

• Satellite 5105-S702 Touch ED error during the startup process

  When I start my Satellite 5105 - S702 laptop with the v8.4.0.24 of antivirus from Computer Associates (CA) software is turned on, I get the following at the end of the boot process error message:

  Error affected

  Recovery of the THotkey failed. "
  Part took place - TouchED.exe - (THotkeyFindProc)
  Function failed - FindWindow)
  Error code: 0 x 00031402, 0x00000002

  However, when I disable the CA antivirus software and restart the laptop, I don't get the error message.

  Thus, it would seem that the CA AntiVirus software causes this error message.

  Would be grateful if someone could give advice if they have this problem with this laptop model, or the Satellite 5105-S701, or European equivalent model 5100-603, and how they have rectified it.

  Thank you

  Hello

  I agree with you.
  In my view the installed (CA) anti-virus software is not fully compatible with the Toshiba Hotkey Utility or the software anti-virus doesn't recognize properly and can not handle.

  CA anti-virus does not for me but maybe you could set some parameters to ignore the Hotkey Utility from Toshiba.

  Maybe it helps if not I recommend you contact Computer Associates support team.

• Driver NVIDIA GeForce4 440 Go to Satellite 5105 - S901 display!

  Hi all
  I Toshiva Satellite 5105 - S901 and knows some proplems with running the latest games, perhaps because of the pretty old driver Nvidia GeForce4 440 Go display. Laptop was purchased in 2002, and since that time video-drivers were not updated.
  So, where can I get the?
  NVIDIA does not provide drivers for chipsets Go and send customers to the manufacturers. But on tosiba.com I found the drivers that have been placed there exactly in 2002. My laptop already has these.
  But where to get the new?
  I do not think that he in no heas driver-implementation to date was carried out by Toshiba for three years for Nvidia GeForce4 440 Go display driver.
  Well, need some advice.
  Sincerely your of
  Alex.
  P.S.:laptop has again good perfomance (P4 - 2 Hz, 2 GB of RAM, 64 MB video).

  Hi Alexis,.

  I had problems with my graphics card ATI Radeon runs is not one some games, so I contacted the guys at support of TDK who suggested I should use the latest drivers from http://www.omegadrivers.net/.

  Unfortunately I could not the ATI drivers to load on my laptop, but maybe you'll have better luck with the NVIDIA ones.

  I agree with you that it is a great shame that Toshiba don't do not update their graphics drivers.

  Kind regards
