Satellite A100-02 b PSAAR: trick to be able to save for the multi monitor users

Hi, people

I always use an external as extension of office monitor when I connect my Tosh to AC.
And I just found out, when I plug it all and go truly mobile, the graphics card still provides a signal to the VGA Port for the then nonexistent extern monitor.

On my Satellite A100-02 b (PSAAR) that consumes about 2 Watts, which means about 10% of the duration of battery life, which is about 20 minutes!
So, if everyone did the same thing
-Place a link on your desktop or startmenu to 'C:\Windows\System32\control.exe desk.cpl"to have quick access to the settings of the monitor
-turn off the monitor 2
- and enjoy longer battery life!

It's on my Vista, I don't know how XP performs...
Welcome, Matz

Hello

Thanks for the very useful info.
I think it could be very useful for everyone who uses batteries very often.

Good bye

  • Satellite A100 - 01 L (PSAAR): XP sound driver need

    Hello

    I need a sound driver for my laptop. It is a 01 L A100 (PSAAR). For PSAAR are just Vista drivers online... but I need one for XP... I tried all PSAA9 audio drivers... but they don't work! :(

    I don't know why... I hope toshiba will publish drivers for PSAAR for XP soon, too... anyone know what driver would work? (Sorry for my English... I am from the Germany)

    Hello

    The laptop uses a Realtek ALC861 audio chip.
    Therefore, take a look on the realtek site and download the driver that supports this chip!

    But it's very strange. Satellite A100 PSAA9E series uses the same sound chip and driver XP it works also on your laptop.

    A tip: If the sound card has been recognized in the Device Manager, the driver is OK. In this case, you will need to check the volume and controls.

  • Satellite A100-529 and new HARD drive

    I bought a new HARD drive: Samsung HM320JI (320 GB/SATA/5400 RPM / 8 M I)
    When I turn on my laptop, it loads as 60%, and then it crashes. Why? It is not compatible?

    Satellite A100-529
    PSAA2e-01J00ZG3
    BIOS: 2.30

    What should I do?
    I formatted my new HDD using my desktop PC

    I don't understand what you mean with these 60%. 60% of what?

    In my opinion the new HARD drive should work fine with your Satellite A100.
    As Alex has already written fair use facilities for the installation of the OS recovery disk and I think everything should be OK.

  • Satellite A100-590 - cannot install the display driver for Win7

    I installed Win7 on my Satellite A100-590 (PSAA9E-03Z00QGR) today. Everything works fine except for the display drivers.
    I downloaded the drivers win7/32 bit here: [here | http://at.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=AT&BV_UseBVCook = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 115970 ie] but when I try to install, extract the files and then nothing happens.

    Does anyone else have this problem or even better a solution? all other drivers will work on this laptop?

    Edit: the graphics card is an ATI Mobility Radeon X 1600

    Extract the files in a new folder created. Open it and use setup.exe.
    What happens when you start it manually using setup.exe?

    Alternatively, you can try to start the installation in the Bin folder.

  • Satellite A100-979: cannot find Vista 64 bit driver for Toshiba buttons

    Hello!

    I have a problem to find a driver for the multimedia keys on my Satellite A100-979(6 easy keys). I have Windows Vista 64-bit and this computer laptop should be vista capable. Can someone help me? Maybe you have an idea to solve this problem.

    > this laptop should be able to vista

    Of course, it s Vista capable. You installed Vista on the Satellite A100-979 and it works.

    You ask drivers for the 64 bit version of Vista? Well, unfortunately, but there is nothing to see!
    It should be common that Toshiba does not all 64-bit drivers. or for XP for Vista. :(

  • Need to buy a new battery for a satellite A100 - don't know which!

    Hello

    My Satellite A100 laptop battery is dead... He has for the last year showed signs of life slowly reduce.
    But I can't for the life of understand me which battery to buy on the section of devices of websites of Toshiba under Power Options.
    All Advisor, welcome.

    Also my laptop has started to become extraordinarily hot - who would have something to do with the life of the battery is reduced?

    Concerning
    RAM

    You can find the model number of your battery and buy the same model. My Toshiba A100-383 battery has this model number: PA3399U-2BRS, I don't know if yours has this number too.

    The heat is a big problem for Li - ion batteries. In any case, you should check if your laptop temperature is abnormal (maybe a fan does not work or it is dirty) because it can affect other components.

  • Additional package for Satellite A100-003

    I have a Satellite A100-003 and I just installed vista 64-bit, which is the correct for toshiba value added package, because I get an error at the end of the installation. Thank you

    First of all the buddy I wonder about your first message.
    You said;
    > I just installed vista 64-bit, which is the correct version for Toshiba package extra

    I visited the Toshiba European page and I didn t find drivers for Vista 64 bit and VAP for Satellite A100 - 003 PSAARE.

    Because of this, I DON T wonder that you receive error messages.
    The error messages appear because you use wrong and NOT compatible software.

    You have updated the BIOS?
    OK, this grand but the BIOS is designed for Vista 32 bit and not 64 bit.
    So it s no matter if the BIOS has been updated or not.

    So he just said; Don t install the VAP for Vista 32 bit on 64 bit Vista version

    The problem:

    The HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GMA-4082N is NOT working property behind Vista, so for this reason, I would like to put Windows XP, why!

    Because after a few writings with the Vista DVD player 'kill' pilots and the DVD is unusable and tryes all to return to the job comes with message INCOMPATIBLE VERSION of the stupid Vista drivers.
    So the solution is to use the recovery DVDs Toshiba who cannot back up user files and folders!

    So when we get the Windows Vista and the machine is ready for work that we can use it for another 3-7 on DVD and BOOOM's written we need to repeat the same procedure, because Vista is not detect the DVD drive?

    Now how to put back the good Windows XP or Linux can be?
    When we look in the forum, we find the only solution that can help us:

    "Look at the bottom of your laptop for PSAAxxxx letters." If it's PSAANE, then the drivers are for the PSAA8xx model, as for the PSAARE model, it has PSAA9xx... Try it, it works for me. It has the same arhitecture. »

    HD sound does NOT work

    ... so when I search several forums including Russian, Spanish and English I found (I thing) a solution.
    So, I'll share my knowledge with you!
    After downloading and installing all the drivers and updates for the appropriate model go and download a drivers for:

    Atheros AR5006EG Wireless Network adapt - Installation and search for the Windows Update *.

  • Satellite A100-003: Question about RAM and recording model number

    Dear Sir/Madam,

    1. the first problem is that I bought the notebook of Toshiba Satellite A100-003 model. But when I tried to save the European web site of Toshiba with my serial number it says Satellite A100-011. I do not understand what it means that. But I do not know my phone model A100-003-PSAARE-0470257Z. The serial number of my laptop is: 17739127G

    2. Another problem is the European website of Toshiba and Turkey Toshiba official site (http://www.toshibatr.com/notebook_filter.asp?ktg=A100) says Rams are 533 MHz "2 048 (1, 024 + 1, 024) MB of RAM DDR2 (533 MHz)"but mine is at 266 MHz. "

    http://img510.imageshack.us/my.php?image=satellitea100003xg4.jpg

    I was wondering in Toshiba laptops of the Turkey has problems or handed in state something? I sent e-mail to the web site of Toshiba Turkey but they don't send me emails or information.

    Thank you for helping me,
    Halin

    Hello

    First of all your registration number is not a 'problem '. Maybe it s just a small mistake in their database. When I registered my P200 registration reported me another type as mine was, but after a call to the hotline of toshiba told me, that my machine is listed correctly in the database.
    Don t worry, register just she.

    With regard to the RAM:

    Do you know why's called it 'DDR' ram? That means 'RAM memory' and the goal is to double the frontsidebus.

    In your case, that means: the REAL AND PHYSICAL frontsidebus is 266 Mhz, but because the flow is double you have a 533 MHz frontsidebus (532, 34.Mhz).
    CPU - Z and WCPUID are simply display the physical clock of the RAM, but the frontsidebus double the signal and then you pure and authentic to 533 MHZ.

    I hope I could explain something to you. ;)

    Have a nice weekend
