After that black screen and nothing more happens.

  Also, I tried to start Linux (Knoppix) CD. Same problem, at some stage, the system stops and doesn't do anything.

  Anyone has any idea how this problem could be solved?

  Thanks a lot for your answers in advance.

  Hello

  Have you tried to boot form CD recovery Toshiba or on the original CD of Microsoft?
  The recovery installation CD should generally work without any problem.
  In addition, if you want to retrieve the unit with the Toshiba Recovery CD you will get 2 modes. Standard and expert mode.

  I guess the message because there might be something wrong with the hardware or any device. I would recommend to enter the BIOS and check the settings. You can also try the options default and safe change.

  But first try to boot from the recovery CD.

  If you have the Toshiba recovery disc in the past, you can use it as part of the new HARD drive. The Toshiba Recovery disk would fix the laptop back to factory settings, which means that you have installed Windows system, Toshiba drivers and additional software.

  > I click on no and once it works again and the synaptics pointing device icon reappear in the taskbar. If I restart the laptop, it still does not work and I do the same things.
  Go to the page of the Toshiba UE driver and download the driver for the Synaptics touchpad. Install the touchpad driver and reboot the laptop. Usually, this should solve your problem.

  It's strange. Usually the BT should work if the BT stack has been installed correctly. Please note that you must activate the BT using the fn (FN + F8). This combination turns on and the WiFi also. So make sure you did it correctly.

• Satellite A100-147: problem of Bluetooth with BT dongle for mobile devices

  Hi guys, take it easy because this is my 1st post.

  I see there are some problems with BT and yes I am here with problems too!
  I recently had to reinstall XP PRO due to a virus, I ve installed all my drivers and even tried the recommended download links but nothing.
  When I load a BT2stack (tried different install x 64 etc.) installation driver, it came with small BT symbol in the taskbar, but when I clicked to toggle the box was just 'grey' and cannot be enabled.

  I noticed the code BW on the underside of my lappy is slightly different, but the a, just do not know if it s compatible with its location in the code.

  Code ends with 15WBT/DS2/LM/W... This seems ok or am I Bluetooth less!

  Whatever it is, the strange thing is I ve it works ok in the past by a BT toggle was having taken in the usb port, no probs in the past using this with my cell phone, but on the purchase of a new (old we had stood on) one mini disc 'pilot', it came with comes up with "E:\ is not accessible" and my disc drive is ok! weird but my 1st rocking didn't come with a disk and the other the box "found the new device" came it was straight forward.

  Axious even now I need this facility to work.

  Please, if anyone has a simple step-by-step tutorial for me to follow then that would be great. I m obviously missing something, but all leads come to a dying.

  see you soon... pete!

  PS. do not operate my FN + F8 but F1 etc seem to just put me on another page on this site?

  I confirm the information published by Blue2S.
  Satellite A100-147 was NOT equipped with the Bluetooth module!

  So you can not activate because there is NO BT!

  First sorry for my bad English. So the problem is my laptop has 4GB (2x2gb). I buy 1x4Go and I want to run with 6 GB. When I install my laptop (1x2Go/1x4Go) run in the bios write 6144 mb.

  But wen the bsod from windows... beginning some time the gel on the Welcome to windows and bsod screen.
  I tried evrerything run with 6 GB no success (once and show me the material 802 MB reserved after the next reboot bsod).

  Some time is running in Mode safe and write some use ram with linux Hardware Reserved.Under I have not problems: installed X 6 GB and no problem. A friend tells me that my shared video memory card to do conflict and cannot calculate the ram. Can I DISABLE my shared video card memory.

  The video card is not integrated.
  I'll give you all the information you will need...: «(want to just run this computer with 6 GB of ram... and no bsod...»

  I have test the ram. (NEW Corsair 1x4Go RAM) Memtest
  Don't test everything no problems with the hardware.
  Reinstall the windows (x 64) only.
  Stop the SuperFetch service.
  Install windows patches.
  I don't know what I'm doing more: "(.)"

  I thing if I disable the shared video (hypermemory) will fix the problem but how to disable? Have all of the options for this in the bios.

  Nice story, but the question is: you use the memory modules live compatible?
  In your long announce didn t post part number and manufacturer of your Ram for upgrade.

  Is that compatible RAMs will work perfectly and there is nothing you have to change, especially not some options of memory sharing that don t even exist.

  By the way:
  4 GB of RAM compatible have part number PA3670U-1M4G. Use this RAM and you won't have any problems, especially BSOD. BSOD is clear evidence that there is compatibility problem.

• 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,

  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

• Satellite A100: Mat * a DVD - RAM UJ - 841S will not play modern DVD

  It's weird, music CD's fine, game DVD and data DVDs no problem but if I want to watch a recent movie, my dvd drive is disabled. What a weird copy protection? I bought this partially to watch movies when the main TV set wasn't available and I feel ripped off the coast. Old DVDs are fine (the monster inc etc). Work on this late nights trying to see what is wrong. The DVD even work on my friends mac so I don't understand. He believes that it is a windows thing done on purpose.

  CD/DVD TEST (D:\) PLAYER MADE FAIL

  Could you tell us what films (title), you have a problem with?
  Perhaps you have trouble with the more recent Double-Layer (9 GB) DVD.

  Of course, it may be a copy protection, too cause some movies using a very unusual way to make sure that they play on a "locked region" disc.
  Using any software on your laptop that are able to "Rip" or "simulate" a DVD? If so, that the existence of such software could prevent the normal functioning of the specific movie titles

  Many films are also not not not to work on the readers of 'Region free '. These DVD movies check if your player is able to play a 'region' that is different than the current DVD that plays, and if they do, they will not start.

  Give us some comments over on that and perhaps we can find the reason for your question.

• Satellite A100 - no sound with Windows XP Pro SP3

  Hello

  I'm the reconstruction of a laptop Toshiba A100-PSAA9A-10U038 with a new installation of Windows XP Pro SP3.

  At this point, I have not all sounds (Yes, the volume is set to the top).

  As this is my first post I covered I hope that most of the bases as with SP3 and I installed all the updates available from Toshiba and Microsoft - well at least, I guess I have. I downloaded the latest updates from Realtek who advised in a general forum but no luck.

  Device Manager tells me that there are problems with a "PCI Device" and a "unknown device", and I assume that one of these two is the culprit.

  Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

  Hi mate

  I think that you have installed the driver of his evil.
  See this page:
  http://www.MyToshiba.com.au/support/notebooks/satellite/A100/psaa9a-10u038/download?OS=22

  you will find all of the Win XP drivers for this model of laptop.
  As you can see there are two different Realtek drivers:
  V Realtek Audio Driver 5.10.0.5253
  -Realtek ALC861 Audio Driver 5.10.0.5200

  To my knowledge, you have the Realtek HD audio Manager.
  But before install you the audio driver SP3 must be installed, it seems, that you did
  However, the most recent audio Realtek driver can be downloaded from the Realtek page directly.
  Select this check box, and then choose Manager Realtek HD audio for Win XP.

  Should work.

• Problem with RAM Pro 4600 - Original RAM is not compatible!

  Hi, first sorry for my English.

  I ve had some problems with original module Toshiba PA3069U-M 256 MB of RAM for my Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600.

  History: (# = number of RAM)

  #1 was delivered to the original box from Toshiba and works in the slot A and B without any problem, but was damaged after only 2 weeks (!) --> Distributor sent me a new: #4

  #2 has been delieverd by the same distributor (same tine as #1), but only in the bag to shield static orginal. The laptop shows that the RAM is incompatible in the slot A and B--> I return

  #3 was delivered by another distributor, a few days after #1 was also damaged in the original Toshiba box. It still works fine in both slots.

  #4 was delivered yesterday, but only in the original static shield bag. The laptop shows that RAM is not compatible in both slots.

  The RAM in the box and the RAM that in static shield bag are two RAM Toshiba original from the manufacturing, seems to be quite the same. But still those in the area of work others are incompatible even after a BIOS update.

  Someone had the sampe problem or can help me?

  THX Braumeister

  Hello

  This seems very strange! The PA3069U-M 256 MB Ram Modules must adapt and work! So it may be that no work modules were damaged by sending by mail just packed in Toshiba box modules that work!

  Goodbye, TOK

• Satellite A100-784: Replacement of RAM 533 =>> 677 MHZ

  Hello

  IM wondering if I can replace my old ram (2 x 512 533 MHZ) a 2 x 1024 but with 677 frequency?
  And here is my question. 677 MHZ is supported on my SATELLITE A100 784 or not?

  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Best regards
  marin_s

  Hello

  Please use the search function because this topic has already been discussed.

  What CPU do you have? If your processor supports a FSB up to 667 Mhz and the RAM should be able to do the same. So if you install RAM with a 667 Mhz front bus and you have a processor that can handle this then you will get some benefits of upgrading memory 667 MHz.

  I recommend you to download * "CPU - Z" * and check your FSB. Then install the new memory and check again. If the FSB RAM then triggers your CPU supports the new FSB.

  A good choice for the RAM would be Kingston... ;)

• Satellite A100 (PSAARA) - upgrade of RAM possible?

  Hello

  Just wondering if I could update my current ram in my laptop Satellite A100 and if so how?

  He is currently a Satellite A100 (PSAARA) with 2 GB of RAM.

  Processor: Intel (r) core (TM) 2 CPU T5200 @ 1.60 GHZ 1.60 GHz

  Running Vista 32 bit.

  What type of RAM upgrade I could on this system? And what code PIN?
  And I know that this may be a shot in the water, but is it possible to update the graphics card at all?

  Sorry am new on this... no idea what I'm doing, so if you could help I would appreciate it!

  Thank you

  > And I know that this may be a shot in the water, but is it possible to update the graphics card at all?
  No, the graphics card can not be upgraded

  > It's currently a Satellite A100 (PSAARA) with 2 GB of RAM. What type of RAM upgrade I could on this system? And what code PIN?

  I think modules laptop use the DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200-PIN SODIMM, but AFAIK the 2 GB of RAM is max and this would mean that it of not possible to upgrade to 4 GB or more

  But to be 100% sure, you should consult your user manual.

• Satellite A100 - 376 PSAARE with Vista: PC Diagnostic displays a white screen

  Model: PSAARE-03501CTP (Satellite A100-376 with Vista Home Premium)

  PC diagnosis (ver 4.00.00) tests worked well even after the update for Value Added Package 1.0.25. This week, I reinstalled the system with the recovery CD and later updated the PPV of the original 1.0.10 for updating version 1.0.25 just as I did before.

  Now the 'Basic Information' tab always displays information as before but the "Diagnostic Tool" tab is empty and nothing can be put to the test.

  I saw another forum of discussion of Toshiba on this same problem without solution. I really expect to have a different answer to "reinstall the system with the recovery CD!

  Thank you

  Fernando

  Hello

  in this case, you unfortunately wait until toshiba releases a new PPV for this computer because there are times that a software update can have benefits and errors. It s all the same with as developers of software to the Japan and who is not only with toshiba.

  On the other side: why do you need the tool of "diagnosis"? I have 5 machines from toshiba, one of them has more than 7 years and I´d never used this tool.
  I use tools well real as the "Ultimate Boot CD" or "UBCD4Win" which have even better tools and software to check your hardware on errors. And they are free. :)

  See you soon

• Satellite A100: 2 GB of RAM installed, but Windows displays only 1.99 GB

  Hello everyone again

  I've recently updated the ram in my A100-583 from 1 GB to 2 GB.
  However, although the computer does not seem to run much faster, when I look at the properties of the system in the main general tab, it's only show that there is 1.99 GB it is a problem with the Ram, or is it just a glich with the System Properties window.

  All other system checks indicate that there are 2 GB in the comp... The ram I installed is corsair ddr2 sodimm 667 mhz/pc25300.
  {Any help with this will be appreciated thanks in advance: 8}

  I don t think that it is a problem of memory modules (RAM live).
  What is the BIOS reports?

  Still that memory could be shared with the GPU (graphics card), and the windows OS also uses some of the memory

  Don t you worry and there is everything ok ;)
