Satellite A100-197 has coloured lines down right

I think it's a problem of monitor like when I take a screenshot, they do not appear, but I could be wrong. They have been there for a while, in a first time, I did not really think much, but they annoy me a little. Each line is one pixel wide and short length to the bottom of my screen. They are of various colors with one or two gaps, gaps being slightly wider that the lines themselves, between the two. Any help appreciated.

Hello

If you want to know what's wrong, then connect the external monitor to the portable computer.
If the same failure will be seen on the external monitor, then chances are that your graphics card is defective.
If the same will not appear on the external monitor, then the internal display could be faulty.

However, the two are hardware problems and needs to be replaced.

In this case, follow the advice given by Marina and ask ASP for help!

Good luck

  • Games and graphics on the Satellite A100-197

    I have a portable satellite A100-197 and I have problems to read some games. Most of the games work very well, but I have problems to read games on Steam, as source of counterstrike and half-life 2.

    Before starting the game, I gives me an error message saying Steam does not recognize my graphics card, and when I go in the game there is no display, just a white screen. I am told by the error message I use ' Mobile Intel 945GM express chipset family "." I don't know hardly what to do, if there is something that I can download to fix this or if I have to buy a new graphics card.

    If this is the case, should what card I buy? I said I need a low profile card, is this the case? What is the best to buy a small budget? I know there are a number of issues, but someone could please help me! Thanks ;)

    Hello

    I also play counter strike and my practice of experience games flow needs always the latest graphics driver.
    Especially the laptop manufacturers do not provide the latest versions and to look at other sites for the most recent version.

    According to your message, the phone supports an Intel 945 GM graphics card.
    Visit the Intel website and download the new chipset / graphic driver for this card.

  • Satellite A100-545: noise intermittently slowing down the

    Satellite A100-545 when read no matter what audio work for example DVD CD or say Skype, MSM etc. sound intermittently slowing down for a few seconds then returns to normal, I downloaded the latest audio drivers.

    Hello

    Eventually it s only a matter of wrong setting.
    Toshiba virtual audio utility should be preinstalled on this laptop.
    Here, you can change some parameters such as the configuration of low frequency or high frequency sounds configuration

    I have sought similar questions in this forum and on the Satellite A100, sound problems has been resolved by updating the BIOS, then the audio driver.
    I don't know if this will help, but if the new version is available, you can try to update the BIOS of Mr. but do not forget to use the good BIOS because evil can damage the motherboard.

  • Recovery disk does not work for Satellite A100-197

    I'm working on an A100-197, which would not boot into normal Windows, but was able to start in safe mode.
    I used MSConfig to disable all startup and other services. Not good.
    I used the system restore. Not good.
    I have scanned for viruses, rootkits, etc. None found. Not good.
    I copied data to another hard drive in SafeMode with network and inserted the recovery DVDs.
    Through unpacking and got message saying to remove DVD - did this and system seems to freeze.
    Click the exit button and it restarts, but Windows froze (the movement stopped moving blobs). Tried safe mode
    but got a message saying that the installation of the system has not finished.
    Tried the recovery again, but this time I left the unpacking screen 100% of the overnight to see if
    He has nothing. There can be no. Click on exit and got the same as above.
    HDD formatted in partition magic and I tried again. Not good.
    Created 5 GB FAT32 partition and DVD files copied to the FAT32 partition. Tried to run the decompression program
    back. He refused to run in DOS mode.
    I think that connects the hard drive on another machine and RecoUnpack.exe a work PC running to
    unzip the files on the laptop HARD drive image, but this is crazy - the recovery disk is supposed to retrieve the
    System. What else can I try?

    GMC

    I would say that you have some serious hardware malfunction. Have you ever tried to check the RAM and the processor?
    In your case, I would try to run the UBCD4Win (www.ubcd4win.com) and superPI allows to see if the RAM is faulty.

    It could also be another component such as the motherboard or something on the motherboard (graphics, sound, some capacitors)

    It s just a suggestion, but you could really give my hint a chance. ;)
    I would also try another HARD drive in this machine, maybe the controller from your old HARD drive disappeared...

    Welcome and appreciate all comments

  • Re: Satellite A100-638 has a stuck key even when I unplug the keyboard.

    I have a Satellite A100-638 with a stuck tab button, up to now, I got around the problem by using a USB keyboard and keytweaking program.

    Unfortunately recently I got problems of coherence on the disk. I installed Win XP on and I can't do a consistency check due to the cancellation scans if no key is pressed. I tried to unplug the keyboard of the laptop motherboard, I think I made the success, but the Tab key always records as being pressed.

    The USB keyboard is fine and has no problem whatsoever.

    If someone could help, I'd appreciate it.

    Looks like the keyboard on the motherboard controller may be defective.

    Are you sure this isn't a driver/software problem? Have you recently installed a USB mouse?

    Can someone tell me, is it my laptop or not has an internal microphone?

  • Satellite A100-912 has a few screen problems

    Hello

    I have the Satellite A100-912 with WXP and up to today, there is no problem.

    I don't know what happened, but a few hours ago, screen started flashing and colors have been mixed.
    I tried to install the new drivers, but it did not help so I hope that someone here could tell me if I can fix it somehow or its some hw question...

    Thank you

    Hello

    It is very important to know if this problem is caused by faulty material or because of software. To be 100% sure I recommend you to use a few methods.

    First try to connect the external monitor to your laptop and please check if the same thing happen on the external monitor. If so the reason may be the faulty graphics card. Otherwise, you can also install OS using recovery delivered DVDs. After doing this you will have factory again and the good drivers will be installed. If the problem persists, it may really be due to faulty hardware (graphics card or screen).

    Sorry, but it's really not easy to say with certainty what the problem is here. Please do not wait too long and if the guarantee is valid that the technicians check your laptop. The warranty will cover all repair costs.

    Good luck!

  • Re: Satellite A100 - display has turned to the high side down

    my screen turned upside on my Toshiba A100 lap top
    How can I fix back to normal? brijoy1i

    Hi brijoy1,

    I agree with Akuma.

    I think that the easiest is when you check the properties of the display driver. In all drivers, you can change the orientation of the screen, so it should be no problem to get rid of it. ;)

  • Satellite A100: WLAN not working after 'down' grading from Vista to XP

    Hello

    I have a laptop A100 with system of operating pre-installed Vista. Vista was so slow that I decided to remove it and install XP SP2 OEM.

    Everything seems to work fine except Networking (WiFi). The only carte_reseau that I can see in the material form is a 1394 adapter, no wireless adapter.
    I tried to download all the XP drivers on the Toshiba site (using my mobile office), but it did not help.
    Can anyone help?

    Hello

    As already suggested that you need to check if the unknown device has been listed in the device under network adapters Manager.

    If there is an unknown device, you need to install the RIGHT WLan driver.

  • Satellite A100-011 has stopped working - battery light flashes

    Hello!

    My phone has recently stopped working.
    No warning before, just don't flat line... :(

    When I try to turn it on, the third fire left (the batery light) starts to Flash.

    I guess what I'm trying to find, that's if the problem is with the AC adapter or should I wait for something worse.

    Can someone tell me, please?
    Thank you very much
    J.

    Hi guys

    Usually if the laptop won't turn on properly then a hardware problem was detected.

    In many cases workaround posted by Feliks (remove the battery and adapter, wait 30 minutes, reconnect the two parts and try to power upward) could contribute to power the laptop but if this workaround doesn't help then a help from a technician of the ASP is necessary and indispensable.

    From my own experience press any additional buttons will not help you so I think that question is related to a hardware problem that should be checked by ASP.

    Good luck

  • Satellite A100 - screen has stopped working

    Hello

    yesterday in vista, he said that he detected an external monitor, even if I never used any external monitor to my laptop. In display properties, he said I had several monitors and in Device Manager it says that I had a pnp and a monitor not Plug-and-Play...

    The screen has stopped working after a reboot. I see nothing on the screen during the loading process indicating normally the toshiba and the vista loading screen. But once vista has started (the sound still works), the screen works again.

    This has me worried and I reinstalled vista from the cd, but now the screen never... never.
    But I know that vista has been correctly installed that after what he asked, can I still use alt + f4 and enter to stop.

    Well, I can't even make troubleshooting procedures on my own that never, the screen now works. -.-
    Does anyone have experience with this?

    Hello

    I've never heard of such question it s so very interesting to hear about this issue. Given that you never connected an external monitor, it must be something else...
    Did you ever done some update the BIOS on this machine?

    Maybe, if you have some, this could be the problem. Otherwise, I have a work around (it could be useful):

    Remove the AC adapter and the battery from the machine and leave the machine for some time (1-2 hours). Then, start the machine and check if it works.

    If this isn't the case, then you must send your machine to the service since it could be a serious hardware problem (I mean if you really reinstalled vista and problems persist after the reinstallation, then it IS definitely a hardware problem).

    You can also try some update BIOS if it is not already done...

  • Satellite A100-756 has finger print reader and remote control?

    My notebook there finger print id? The manual says it's but I can't and also it is supposed to be a remote with it but I've not seen a.

    Does anyone have any ideas?

    I'm sure that the textbooks said that these options are available on some models. If your laptop was original packed in and you have not found remote in the box of the situation is clearer: remote is not available for your model.

    In any case, I found info on the remote control to A100-756 and there is advice: remote controller not available.
