Satellite A100-259 (PSAA2E) WIFI problem

Hi, I'm living for a few months in Paris, and I purchased a monthly subscription to a Wi - Fi network I get from the street somewhere (http://www.ozoneparis.net). Everything has been working well for 2-3 weeks, but a few days ago it stopped working. I am able to find the network, and I can connect. But when I type in an address in my browser, then it passes some time do nothing and told me then I probably typed in the wrong URL, or should I check my settings (the progress bar jumps to y the average rest for a while and then I get the error screen). I have not changed the settings, so this seems weird (I always use those I found here: http://www.ozoneparis.net/parametres.html). The last thing I did was a bit torrent software (which worked fine before), I left it on overnight, and then in the morning nothing worked.

The strange thing is that LAN cable works fine (it is what I use now, at a friend's House), and I + can + use the Wi - Fi in the park nearby. But not Wi - Fi, I get in my apartment.

Deactivation and activation of the connection don't work; Uninstall and reinstall the wireless card don't work; roll back the driver; I tried a bios update and the updated driver, did not work.

I am running Windows XP, with an Atheros AR5005G Wireless Network Adapter.

Help?
I can't wait to put it back in to a repair shop, because my French is not very good, and I need the internet kind of MOMENT for an assignment, I'm working on.
Thanks for any help!

Ah, nevermind. It turned out to be a general failure on the network, so nothing was wrong with my computer. Thanks anyway!

  • 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 ".ยป 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 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

    It won't let me either start from a cd or usb... I press F12 to choose to boot from the cd or usb, but it's still request the password unknown... is there a solution?

    Please answer it is essential!
    Thank you very much...

    > the problem is that I downloaded toshiba HW setup and I accidentally put a password...

    That s funny because the BIOS password or contractor may be reset by an authorized service provider.
    The BIOS password is a high security option that can not easily be reset.
    Then ONLY ASP can remove a UNKNOWN password.

  • Satellite A100 - 510 PSAA2E cannot start - nothing on the screen

    Hello

    I had Satellite A100-510 (PSAA2E) since May 2006.
    2 weeks before, when I tried to switch the fans started spinning and the LED lit and after about 2 seconds, it restarts without showing anything on the screen.

    There is also no beeps or anything.

    I tried almost everything: remove the hard drive, screen, wireless card, dvd player, change the RAM between the slots...
    It makes no difference if.

    So I think it's a problem of memory or the motherboard is dead, what do you think?

    > So I think it's a problem of memory or the motherboard is dead, what do you think?
    Yes, the mentioned parts could cause this problem

    But it would be the worst case and you must contact the Toshiba ASP for more details

    Before that you would get in contact with ASP, I recommend you try this:

    -Remove the battery, disconnect the adapter.
    -Wait 30-60 minutes
    -Bring the two parties together and try to turn on 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

    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.

Windows XP can detect whenever I have insert a memory stick on it but doesn't have the driver software.

    Toshiba Satellite A100-507
    Model: PSAA2E - 013009GR

    I don't know which driver you tried to install, but for USB, you will not find any driver. For the use of the USB ports, you will need to install the Chipset driver.

    Sorry, but it's really not easy to say what the problem is here. If you have a recovery CD try to make the new installation of the OS. If this is insufficient, it may be hardware problem.

  • 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.

  • Satellite A100-920 - Audio driver problem - Win XP Pro

    Hi all

    I'm having a problem with audio driver. I can't seem to find one that works anywhere, I looked at several forums and the Toshiba site for drivers without success. I basically hit a wall, so I hope someone can provide a working solution. :)

    Audio device:
    Feature: 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller
    Manufacturer: Intel

    (Information retrieved using a Ubuntu 9.04 Live CD)

    Although a windows system it labels as "Realtek High Definition Audio Controller"? (I'm not an expert with the drivers, so maybe this is a stupid question...) :)

    The computer is a Toshiba Satellite A100-920 (PSAA9E) Windows XP Professional.

    I spent hours trying to solve this problem, so I hope this is the last mile. :) Thanks to anyone with suggestions.

    Best regards

  • Satellite A100-803 - Vista recovery problem

    Hello

    I upgraded the RAM and HDD on a Satellite A100-803 and when I restore Windows Vista from the recovery disk process is going very well, but after restarting windows says that "Windows Setup could not set up Windows on this s material.

    I think that the problem is listed here.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2466753/en-us.

    But the problem is that I can't change the RAID setting in the BIOS, and during the installation of recovery, I'm not able to add the additional drivers needed.
    The new drive is a WD 500 GB driver (WD5000BPVT)

    How can I solve this problem?
    Thanks in advance
    Pau

    Hello

    First I put t think its BIOS problem.
    The laptop doesn't support RAID.

    I think the problem is the size of your new HARD drive. Upgrade of the disk HARD 500 GB and its larger than the original HARD drive equipped in A100.

    The point is that a recovery disk automatically creates the partitions on the HARD disk, but due to the size of the disk HARD the size of the partitions would be different also.
    I think that you won't have the same problems to install Vista or Win 7 using the Microsoft disk

  • Satellite A100 - Flash memory card problem

    Dear Forumleden,

    Mechanic national rule also tried and we don't get the screen of the gang.
    My question is if anyone has had this problem.

  • Satellite A100-206 supervisor password problem

    Hello

    We have a Satellite A100-206 at the office.

    A colleague trying to protect the laptop set the user password in the bios.
    I do not exactly know what she does but at startup is asked for a password.

    Then she ask me to remove the password so I typed the password, management of the bios and clear the user password.
    But it is, I also noticed that the supervisor password was already defined but not selectable (gray color).

    In any case, I've saved and restart.
    The problem is that now the OS start without asking for a password, but I can't enter the bios because it asks for a password and is not that of the colleague don't forget to have it fixed.

    Why can't I get more into the bios of th as a user?
    I also find the hwsetup in windows re set the password of the user as shown in the manual, but this software is not present.

    Best regards
    Diego

    Hello

    I put t know which operating system you have, but I think that Akuma is right. If you start HWsetup you can also access the BIOS using this tool and remove or set a supervisor password.

    You can remove the password in HWsetup?
