• Satellite A100 - 386 (PSAA9E) - support button

  Hello

  I would like to learn more about the special keyboard keys. I have 4 large buttons on the left side of my keyboard, maybe 6 under: "(internet, cd/dvd, lecture/pause, stop, retour en arrière/avant)."

  I would like to know everything about them: where are they in the control panel? How the Support Button works? How to record TBS are used?

  In fact, I would like to make them a job I want: I don't understand why I have 6 button, but only 2 (internet, cd/dvd) in the software 'button '.
  (of course, nothing happens whatever I set up in support of the key). Another thing: I have a strange Y instead, if the \ in the path of the Support Button. Is this really?

  My hardware: Satellite A100-386 (psaa9e)
  My software: Windows Visa Ultimate b 32

  Hello

  I can understand that you are so curious, but unfortunately no one will be able to give specific answers to your questions. I just write my opinion about it. I hope that you will agree with my opinion.

  In any case all these buttons are designed to make notebook easy and also more comfortable to use. As you can see there are two buttons that you can use to start an application and others are designed for a multimedia application.

  To be honest your sentence
  > I do not understand why I have 6 button, but only 2 (internet, cd/dvd) in the software 'button '.
  completely confused me. If you see 4 buttons are for multimedia I don't understand why you can't understand that. You can use them with EMP, WMP, and WinDVD.

  Exact explanation, how it works, you can find in s operating manuals. Maybe you can tell us how you want to configure all these buttons.

• Satellite A100-386 - HDD upgrade question

  Hello everyone and happy new year.

  First of all, sorry for my bad English.

  I bought a Satellite A100-386 a few years and I'm really happy, but my hard drive has failed.
  So, I wanted to know if I could put a 2.5 "SATA II disk, like this.

  http://www.materiel.NET/Disque-Dur/Hitachi-Travelstar-5k500-b-s-ATA-II-250-go-8-mo-48900.html

  because when I see the characteristics of the satellite, they mention a hard drive with only S - ATA.
  Y at - it compatibility?

  Thank you answer :)

  Bye bye

  Hello

  Yes, I think that this should be possible.
  The A100 supports hard drives SATA controller, and theoretically, you can use any HARD SATA 2.5 drive.

• Satellite A100-386: no internet access after the new XP installation

  Hi everyvody!

  I can do it myself, so I ask for your help!

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A100-386 with windows XP MCE.

  I recently had a virus, so I formatted my drive. I don't have the installation CD with me, so I install XP.
  I have two disc on my computer with the system and the other with the documents.
  Then I install ALL the drivers I could find on the Toshiba site for my computer.
  This means that the PSAA9E. The problem is that I have no internet! I don't understand why.

  When I look in computer management, I have no ethernet, controller mass storage controller and network controller.
  I have zone alarm as a firewall and an antivirus avast!

  I disabled avast to be sure that he's not in it but no result...
  In Thoshiba drivers there is also something to update the BIOS.
  I did it but I didn't change. I hope the problem here not there...

  It will be really nice to help me ^^

  Hello

  I think that you just have not installed the right driver LAN and WLan driver

  As much as I know this laptop supports Intel Pro 100 Lan and WiFi Intel 3945ABG card card

  Please visit the European driver Toshiba page again and download the compatible network driver and the driver WLan.
  Unpack the packages, then install it.

  Finally check again if the LAN and WLan cards were recognized in the Device Manager in network adapters.

  Good bye

• Satellite A100-386 - how to upgrade the BIOS?

  Hello

  I wanted just to update my old Satellite A100-386 with 4 GB of RAM (2x2gb Crucial) instead of 1 GB, as I am now running Windows7 Pro 64 bit instead of the original XP 32.

  I read that I had to upgrade the BIOS as mine is v2.00. So, I downloaded the last of them.
  It seems to be an automatic upgrade of BIOS (S10V600.exe) as mentioned on the site Web of Toshiba.
  But when hit the .exe, I have a box of error message saying:
  "LOADPEDRV. "EXE: could not start the service.

  My question is: do I have to be 32-bit OS to run the upgrade of the automatic BIOS or is it possible to Flash the BIOS with a Windows7 64 bit OS run?

  Thanks a lot for all answer as I found no 'how to' in search on this forum.

  Best regards
  François

  Hi FPSim,

  Who said that you need to update the BIOS to upgrade RAM? The maximum RAM capacity depends on the motherboard and chipset and not BIOS.

  Official website of Toshiba, I have seen that the model supports 4 GB of RAM so the BIOS update is not necessary. Increase the RAM and everything is ok.

• Graphics card on the Satellite A100-386 maybe replaced/implemented to date?

  Hi all

  Probably having heat with my satellite a100 problem, I ran to the point were the remains of dark screen and no boot at all!
  Everything has been cleaned inside the dust thermal paste applied on the three places needed.

  A few months ago, I put 2 RAM to 2 GB to she thrust a little: he was fine until a few days with moment stops after an hour or so at the end of the great: do not start with no beep, nothing except the fan and the power led.

  Open it, I saw the thing near the fan which could be the video card, which seems to be removable, quite rare is it not?

  If that's really remplaceable, I need to find the exact same, card nvidia geforce Go 7300 Tc, say on the card, or is there the possibility to put a better card?

  As far as I know, it does not reserve an establishing a removable part so can in any way with the other parts of the computer to change (compatibility), unless it is for reasons of cost...

  Thanks for help

  AFAIK GPU is not extensible and on some model GPU is not fixed on the motherboard and can be exchanged. If you want to replace it than just with the same if one only, you will be able to buy a.

  >.. no more boot with no beep, nothing except the fan and the power led.
  That is a little strange that there is no sound signal. To me, it sounds like a BIOS problem.

• Satellite A100-811 - maximum memory capacity

  I have an old A100-811 Satellite with Windows XP SP3. It has 1 GB of memory (2 x 512). I want to improve the memory. What should I do?

  1. put another memory of 2 GB so the total is 2.5 GB (will I get in trouble for using two types of 512 MB and 2 GB memory?)

  2 put 2 x 1 GB total 2 GB (for better styling?)

  3. put 2 x 2 GB. But will I have the 4 GB memory full or only 3 GB because of the limitations of memory Win Xp?

  Do I need a BIOS update for this?

  Thanks in advance for any info!

  Hi skga100,

  The maximum capacity of RAM in Satellite A100-811 is 4 GB. This means that you can install 2 GB in each slot.

  Usually for Windows XP 2 GB is enough but I want to upgrade to Vista or Windows 7, you should think about 3 or 4 GB

  In your case, I would buy a 2GB memory module. If you are on the safe side.
  Why? If you want to install Vista or Windows 7 later, you can buy a second memory module and keep your 2 GB module. Who s the easiest way. :)

  And no, upgrading the BIOS is not necessary.

• Satellite A100-233 - what memory I need?

  Hello

  I have the Satellite A100-233 and I want to increase its memory. The question is, if my card MOM, can I put DDR2 memory with 667 MHZ speed or I use only 533 MHZ?

  Thank you

  Hello

  It according to your chipset you ;)

  If you want to just buy a second memory module, I'd be the same module as the first. So that you know its module is compatible with the laptop and normally two identical modules must be used in the book to avoid problems of incompatibility.

  But as far as I know A100-233 can handle up to 667 MHz modules. If the first module runs with 533 MHz, the second module will work also on 533 MHz. This means that the modules are compatible downgrade.

• Satellite A100-294: what memory should I buy

  I have (only) 512 MB of RAM and I need to upgrade. Should what memory I buy? What models, which could be found on the market, I could choose? And do I have to have the same memory, for example. 512 + 512 MB or 1 GB + 1 GB (or even the same producer?) for best performance, working properly, or something? [Please help me, I need to upgrade as soon as POSSIBLE and I could not afford any possible error:]

  The laptop is Satellite A100-294

  Hello

  I hope that I will receive some reward you points because I think I can provide useful answers ;)
  The laptop seems to be the DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200 - PIN SODIMM fragmented into several modules.
  You can use these modules from different manufacturers, but in my opinion it s better to buy a module of brand instead of module without name due to the better performance

  This site provides a few compatible Kingston modules for Satellite A100-294
  http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=24854&ft=m&St=3

  You can also mix the modules; I mean, you could use 512 + 1024 or 1024 + 1024 or 512 + 512. All these options are possible

  Best regards

• Satellite A100-626 - maximum memory supported?

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A100-626 with 2 GB of RAM.

  As indicated in the record of this model:
  standard: 1 024 (512 + 512) MB
  maximum extension: 4 096 MB
  technology: DDR2 RAM (533 MHz)
  expansion module sizes: 256, 512, 1 024 MB

  It is said that it can go up to 4 GB, but only shows module sizes up to 1 Gb. (maybe 2 GB modules did not exist at the time).
  Anyone know or tested if it is possible to install 2 2 GB modules or 1 module 4 GB to achieve the maximum of 4 GB extension?
  Also, it supports up to 800 MHz of frequency? If not, what is the maximum?
  And finally, DDR3 works on this model?

  Thanks in advance for the answers.

  Hello

  I found this Toshiba product page:
  [Satellite A100-626 | http://pt.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=PT&DISC_MODEL=0 & ACTION = PRINT_WITH_BACK & BV_UseBVCookie = Yes & PRODUCT _ID = 119571]

  It s a Portuguese Toshiba page because I believe that this model of laptop is designed for the Portuguese market.
  You will find information that it of possible to upgrade the RAM to 4 GB (2 x 2 GB RAM).

  But note; the 32-bit operating system will not be able to use the full 4 GB of RAM.
  Just the 6 bit OS can use and recognize all of the 4 GB

  > Also, is it supports up to 800 MHz of frequency?
  It depends on the chipset. If the chipset allows that the then the memory at 800 Mhz would go to 800 Mhz otherwise they would be pointing down.

  > And finally, DDR3 works on this model?
  No, as much as I know just the DDR2 modules are supprted.

• Satellite A100 - adding RAM memory

  I use the Satellite A100-599 noetbook with memory-1 GB - 533 Mhz, the system supports upgrade memory up to 4 GB.

  I need to add another 2 GB of ram, but I found it only with 667 Mhz, the question is I can it add ram 2 GB - 667 MHz for 1 GB - 533 MHZ existing ram.
  Kind regards

  You can do this, but the 2 GB 667 MHz module will only work at 533 Mhz.
  The slower module would lock the module more quickly and would allows the module to operate only at 533 MHz

• Disconnections every 3 minutes - Satellite A100-386

  Hello!
  I have a very annoying pb... is the wifi connection is disconnected every 3 minutes about... I use a card intel pro wireless 3945 and there seems to be a pb with some routers, as I rarely connect pbs. I updated the driver, but it has not changed anything, so I was wondering if there is a specific configuration that could avoid disconnections?
  Meny thanks for any help

  Please do not be angry on me, but I really hate the validations where is posted not info on the laptop model and operating system preinstalled. What you think about this? Are these really not relevant Info for your problem?

  In any case, these instability WLAN problems are mostly solved by combination of driver and BIOS update. You have the latest version of the BIOS?
