• Satellite A100-259 and PCMCIA card reader no longer works

  I have a Satellite A100-259, I've had for about a year with no problems... so far, the PCMCIA card slot reader seems to have stopped working.

  When I insert a card reader SD PCMCIA discover the laptop hardware as a "PCMCIA UNKNOWN_MANUFACTURE' and subsequently can not find the drivers for it. I tried a couple of different PCMCIA devices and get the same question every time, I checked also double the card reader works by trying it in PC laptop Toshiba-not to the woman.

  The PC is a XP/Vista installation start-up duel and I get the same question under each operating system. I also think that it may have started after I installed upgrading the BIOS to 2.20.

  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, b
  Kind regards.

  Try to access the BIOS and set the defaults.
  Don t forget to save the settings after the change.

  By the way; Are you trying to reinstall the PCMCIA driver?
  Go to the Device Manager and remove the PCMCIA computer location.
  Then restart the laptop and check if Windows detects and installs the removed slot.

  Good luck

• Re: Missing ms-bus control driver Win XP for Satellite A100-259

  Hey,.

  I looked around my driver missing for awhile now, but I can't seem to find anything on the toshiba download page.

  I need a ms-buscontroler driver for my laptop Toshiba Satellite A100-259, for Windows XP Pro.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  See you soon

  Hmmm. In my view, this could be a card reader device that needs a compatible driver.

  I didn t find anything in your area download, but in the series A100 PSAA8.

  There is a Flash Media Texas Instruments driver. Download and try to install it.

• Problem with the new installation of Windows XP on the Satellite A100-259

  Hi all!

  I have a problem with the fresh install WIN XP on Satellite A100-259 (PSAA2E).
  I already deleted the partition, formatted (NTFS) and tried to reinstall from recovery disk that initially provided with the laptop. But whenever I try to install a problem is detected (for the most part it's 'page in the nonpaged area failure').

  I also tried to install the OS directly from MS Windows XP Home Edition SP2 CD - the same problem.
  I checked the partition using PQ Magic and discovered that there are ' partition table error #110 ".» So, what I did:

  (1) delete partition-> create new partition-> format (NTFS)-> reinstall from recovery disk-> has not yet;
  (2) partition delete-> install WinXP CD original by create and format partition option-> has not yet;
  (3) delete the partition (using the magic of pq)-> create partition (using the magic of pq)-> format NTFS partition for win xp option-> check partition-OK no problems don't-> installation of original win XP CD-installation without changes-> option failed even once
  (4) delete the partition (pq magic)-> create partition (pq magic)-> format NTFS partition for win xp option-> check partition-OK, no problem-> installation of the recovery disc-> has not yet

  Whenever a different error is detected, so I can't identify the problem. I don't know what to do. Does anyone have any ideas?

  Hello

  Seems that there are some problems with the standards of the partitions.
  A friend of mine has tried to install the OS on the recovery CD on the laptop that has been formatted with Partitions Magic 8 and the installation failed.
  It was very strange

  Finally, we have formatted the whole HARD drive using the CD original Windows XP Pro.
  We did not remove the partition but simply kicked this CD and after the configuration process spent, we formatted the whole HARD disk and install XP without creating all the partitions.

• Satellite A100-259 slitters

  Hello

  I had my A100-259 for 3 and a half years, had no problems (apart from I got a flat battery a couple of years ago and have been using the power since).
  I turn it on get so far and then the power cuts just the led shuts off as if there is not being able to run to him.

  I unplug it and leave it for a while, and then when I connect power, the lights come on and I can turn on, but then he lost power again. I removed the battery and tried, but still happens.

  Any ideas / solutions greatly appreciated :)

  Hello

  Well, to me it sounds like that it s a hardware problem, maybe the card mother or something else.
  Just one question: you use original Toshiba AC/DC adapter or another?

  In your case I would contact an authorized service provider. Technicians should check your laptop and tell you what is the cause. I think it would be the best way to repair the laptop.

• Need drivers for Satellite A100-259 wireless

  Hello

  Had to reformat my computer laptop girls (A100-259 PSAA2) due to virus issues and am trying to rebuild. Close to there, but can't get the cordless drill to work. Nothing is displayed in the system tray when it is switched on (switch on the right a light). I guess that because I reinstalled XP I need to reinstall the wireless drivers but I can't find them on the toshiba web site (http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=UK). It only shows the Atheros management utility.

  Any advice would be very happy, especially since I'm pretty new to such things, and she lost the manual that came with the laptop.

  Thank you very much
  Norrie

  Hello!

  I put t know why no WLAN driver is available for this model A100 and Windows XP, but if you're looking for another model A100 (e.g. Satellite A100 PSAA8).

  Then, you will find a driver Atheros WLAN for XP and it should also work.

• Satellite A100-237: need some information and details

  All,

  While seeking to buy a new laptop, I was offered the Satellite A100-237. This laptop is T2400 / 80GB / 512MB with screen 15.4 "and ATI x 1600 video.

  I searched in the Toshiba Europe website but could not find any trace for this model. Only when I googled I found that this model is sold in South Africa.

  My questions are:
  -What is the similar model sold in Europe?
  -Is this model a new or will be interrupted?
  -Is this compatible Vista model?
  -Is this compatible Merom (Core 2 duo) model? I know that other manufacturers offer instructions and BIOS update to upgrade Yonah for Merom.
  I couldn't find this information on the Toshiba web site.

  Your help is very appreciated.

  This model is also sold in Europe (or at least in the South-Eastern and Central Europe).
  It's a new model - April or in May 2006, I think.
  He has a capable 'Vista' sticker on this subject, so I guess he can run Vista.
  In principle the Intel 945 chipset can support the Core 2 Duo with a simple update of the BIOS. The question is whether the laptop manufacturers that will provide a new BIOS.

  The build quality is very good, the only weak point in my opinion is that it comes with only 512MB. 1 GB of RAM would have been a much better companion for the T2400 and X 1600.

• Satellite A100 - compatibility SSD drive and recommendations?

  Hello.
  I want to replace the original HARD drive in my Satellite A100-811 with an SSD.
  What are the parameters for search? I can just about any 2.5 "SATA II SSD on the market?
  Intel X 25 - M Mainstream SATA SSD 160 GB G2 is compatible?
  Are there recommendations for Toshiba?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  A100 controller SATA HDD support.
  Generally, it should be possible to use the laptop as part of a SATA SSD drive.
  But I also read that not all laptops can properly manage the SSD drive.
  In some cases the SSD update the firmware of the player might help.
  So I can't say with certainty that the new SSD will work properly and that the BIOS would properly recognize the SSD.
  I think you'll need to test the SSD drive
  You could order it on Amazon and could test, in the worst case you could send again
  I did it too with some RAM modules that didn t work in my notebook.

  Please post some details if these updates succeeded or not, it would be interesting to know if you can use it in your A100 because I would use a SSD drive too

  Please can someone help, its quite Important! = D

  On the European driver Toshiba page, you will find the Realtek Lan driver and driver Intel Lan.
  If Realtek doesn t work, then you need the Intel Lan driver.

  Is it so difficult?

• Satellite A100 - closed by itself and no longer starts

  Satellite A100 PSAA9A-10U038. Laptop shut down by itself, while in use. No BIOS upgrades or changes. No light no no list, no JOB.
  I tried the power adapter on another machine and works fine. Called Toshiba me adapter probably at fault, if I want to have the look will cost you $120.
  I think maybe the mother died? Any help would be appreciated.

• Satellite A100-225 keeps freezing and crashing with the new HARD drive

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite A100-225 with a 100 GB SATA Hitachi drive I int it that recently started showing bad sectors. Then I bought a Hitachi 320 GB SATA II drive to replace it. I tried the drive and it was recognized right away, so I didn't need to change the SATA speed. I ran the restore a disk installed newest. The problem I have is that the computer keeps freezing and crashing with the new drive. It takes a lot of time to load up when turned on and there is a noticeable to untermittant delay when you drag the cards around solo.

  I tried to run the Hitachi drive test and it comes back fine. I also tried to turn the SATA speed of the drive down from 300 to 150 via the firmware, and although I saw a slight improvement, it is still not right.

  I talked to Hitachi and they say that he could not be 100% compatible, so the problems. Someone at - it else sucessfully set up a replacement for this notebook drive and if so what make and model. Has anyone else had simular problems?

  Thank you

  Years ago, I've updated yet more former Satellite M70 with SATA HDD (270 GB if I m remembering well) and everything was fine.
  In my view upgrade with SATA HDD normal shouldn't be a problem. Do not SATA II because it will not work faster.

  I can't say for sure, but there must be a compatibility problem.

  Let's see if someone else had better luck with the upgrade of the disk on the Satellite A100.

  Have you checked this forum with advanced search option? Maybe you can find some old NET on upgrade the HDD on A100.

• Satellite A100 - 495 (PSAA9) - CPU and GPU upgrade

  Hi all

  I have a few questions.
  I have a Satellite A100-495 with 2 GB of Ram, Core2Duo 1.83 GHz (2 x; T5600) and an NVIDIA Geforce 7600go.
  I want to spend the CPU and the GPU. Is this possible?
  I don't want to do. I am looking for a store (if possible in Germany) that can do this.

  If its possible, what it costs? And what store can I speak?

  If this is not possible-> why? It is fixed; It getting too hot?

  What solution do I? I don't want to buy a new laptop.

  Kind regards
  Dave

  Update CPU and GPU on laptop computers is complicated enough or is not possible. At first, I must say that GPU is part of the motherboard and graphics card can not be upgraded at all.

  What about the CPU upgrade? Toshiba authorized service providers will not do that and the CPU upgrade is not supported. Few people on this forum have talked about CPU upgrade, but for me the risk is too high. All hardware components are adapted to the work well together and also to reduce the risk of damaging the material. The BIOS is also suitable for the specific hardware configuration. The values of the fans are also tested and there is no risk of overheating.

  Change CPU, you will get no more powerful laptop. Modern processors are powerful enough and a few MHz more won't do anymore difference. What you can do is to increase the RAM to the maximum level - 4 GB. That s all what you should do and your laptop runs a lot faster.

  Also be careful on the configuration of the operating system. This will also help make your laptop faster than before.

  By the way: for operations you need more power? What you want to do with your laptop?
