Satellite A100-410 - no image on the internal display

Dear readers, (also strange that Toshiba sells also in the Netherlands, and I do not use the Dutch language)

I have a Toshiba Satellite A100-410
I have problems after one year only (after warranty) where to plug an external monitor.
The laptop displays not its own screen, without external screen is lighter, it starts but no picture.
I did it with Fn + F5 but nothing

Controlled parameters but no error detected.
It would be nice if someone could send an email with a url so that the old setting back.
It's a Windows XP MCE and the mechanic that all abducted and put Vista on.

At the beginning, a lot of problems, but it was under warranty and after that install on a clean disk Vista had no problem just no image on the notebook and which isn't difficult if you use him in the hospital.

So I hope that someone can send an email with a solution.

Thank you
Seggelinck

(> also strange that Toshiba sells also in the Netherlands, and I do not use the Dutch language)

Toshiba selling own products around the world... everyone here validate in the own language? Definitely bad idea...

However, your question;
Just to clarify your question; the internal screen does not work, but you can all see if you connect to the laptop to the external monitor. Is this good?

Well, I doubt that this could be a software issue... maybe the internal screen is defective.
What do you thing about this idea?

Usually, you should see the start screen for Toshiba at the beginning of the startup procedure. If this screen is not visible on the screen of the laptop computers, so I guess that this problem could be linked to the failure of the display.

  • Satellite A100 683: can I upgrade the internal card?

    Hello

    can someone tell me if it is possible to replace the original map (3945ABG) of the Satellite A100 683 by a new, n support card (4965AGN)?

    I would say that it should be possible since both are mini pci cards and I use Windows Vista (which is a system for the 4965AGN requirement), but it would be nice to have a confirmation before buying this card.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    What card do you mean exactly?
    Do you mean the LAN or WLan?

    I ask because I m not 100% sure what car say you, but to my knowledge only the WLan card is removable!
    As you say it s card miniPCI and especially two wires connect the card with the motherboard
    Both Brown and white cables connect the WLan antenna.

    However, theoretically, it should be possible to use another wireless network card but I see really no reason that these updates.
    If you have a Vista compatible driver for your card, then everything should work great.

    Good bye

  • Re: Satellite A100-410 cannot start Windows XP

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A100-410 and I can't start over (in safe mode ok). When starting, it shows the XP screen and after 10 seconds, the screen goes black. We have re-installed XP but no use. We checked again and assume that something is wrong with the video card drivers.

    So we checked for the last but no use. I can boot the laptop when the video card is uninstalled, so it takes to cause something weird.
    Or could it be that the card is broken?

    Hello.

    For sure your video card is ok, otherwise you may see white screen after switching on. The problem is in the driver problem. Have you downloaded the Toshiba site display driver?
    Maybe there is a conflict of driver. This site http://downloads.guru3d.com/downloadget.php?id=1655&file=7&evp=c14f9f3787877ee f9ef4b235b9146e96 stage
    Download and install. Then try to reinstall the display driver (if not work, do it in safe mode).

    If she's not always you help, do a search for a new iso Windows Xp but not Windows assembly (some guys like to change windows, deleting and adding some files, and then load it. Most of these modified versions are bad).

    That's all I can suggest now, sorry if does not work.

  • Satellite A100-590 PSAA9E freezes on the Toshiba start screen after BIOS update

    Hello.

    Yesterday, I made an update of the BIOS on my Satellite A100-590 PSAA9E 03Z00QGR with the appropriate flash:

    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_driver_details.jsp?service=EU&selCategory = 2 & selFamily = 2 & selSeries = 153 & selProduct = 624 & langua ge = 17 & selOS = 10 & selType = all & yearupload = & monthupload = & dayupload = & useDate = null & mode = userMachines & search = & action = search & macId = & country = all & selectedLanguag e = 17 & type = all & page = 1 & ID = 58477 & DISO =-1 & driverLanguage = 42

    BIOS - 20070709111839.zip

    After flashing, the machine restarted automatically, but unfortunately it keeps now suspended from Thoshiba welcome screen. Also by pressing F2 or F12 will not change anything. It seems that the BIOS is damaged.

    I saw that in the BIOS package are delivered the two files (s10gm590.rom and s10pm590.rom) flash. But just the execution of the BIOS590MP.exe SanAntonion10 a .vbs script starts decides which automatically selects and loads a flash file. Maybe she chose the wrong?

    What should I do now? Is there a way to restore the BIOS, or do I have to send my laptop?

    Thanks in advance

  • Satellite A100 PSAA8: How to order the Toshiba XP-> Vista upgrade CD

    Hello

    I just bought a Satellite A100 (psaa8)
    I found that a document indicates that I can move on to Vista and a link but it does not work.

    So can you please help me with this, I got bored of XP.

    I read that some members ordered a free vista CD.
    Can you tell me how to order and it is good or bad?

    Hello

    Remember that this offer is limited by the date! I think you're too late dude!
    But why you're bored? The XP is the OS really friendly and fully compatible with all 3rd party devices!
    Vista needs a lot more use as XP and runs slower than XP. If you want to play games on your laptop, I would recommend staying with XP! All games run faster under OS XP!

    You know the Vista Customization Pack? This allows you to use XP but it looks like a Vista.
    You know, the whole images, icons, etc. will transform the look of Vista.

    It s nice and for people who wants to change the old XP style new style Vista ;)

    > but when I installed the second RAM after the BIOS Windows screen accept 2 GB of RAM.
    This means that you install RAM modules while the laptop is running?
    I m wondering your laptop still works. Normally, you could destroy the whole motherboard and the module.

    Anyway, to me it sounds like that your laptop isn't compatible with the memory modules vive. What modules do you have exactly?
    I have good experiences with the Kingston modules.

    Hello

    I don't know if I understand your question, but you want to connect two laptops via the WLan. Am I wrong?
    Well, this type of network connection is called Ad hoc.

    Choose Start-> settings-> network connections, and then click the local network connection you want to share. On the left side of the screen under the management of the network, click on "change settings of this connection. Under the Advanced tab, under Internet connection sharing, check the box "allow other users of the network to connect through this computer's Internet connection".
    There is also a check box to allow other users to enable or disable the Internet connection, if you are so inclined. If your network doesn? t need to access to the Internet, you can skip this paragraph.

    The host system must also be configured with an Ad Hoc network connection and a Set Service identify (SSID). Right-click on the wireless icon in the system tray and choose "view wireless networks". Do NOT yet connect to any wireless network that could appear in the box. Click the Advanced button. This will bring up the Properties window of wireless with the wireless networks tab at the front. Click the Advanced Options button at the bottom right of this tab, select the option "networks from computer to computer (ad hoc) only". Make sure that the box "Auto connects to the non preferred networks" is NOT checked. Click the close (once) button to return to the wireless network tab.
    Under preferred network, click Add. You now need a SSID for this machine, which is actually the name it will use to announce themselves to the other members of the ad hoc wireless network.

  • Satellite A100 is locked because of the fingerprint BIOS & user password

    Hi all

    I have my A100 to my work, recognition of the TouchChip fingerprint a year ago. On initial installation, I recorded my fingerprint of the windows interface.
    Six months ago I had to reinstall windows XP due to infection by the virus that is not repairable. I have installed Windows XP Home edition and downloaded all the drivers and additional software from Toshiba's site.

    I him didn't record again my fingerprints, and I have NOT activated the TouchChip software this time. My problem was only an annoying message at the time the sign that said «you have not saved your fingerprint again...» "and that's it.
    After a 2 week out of town trip (My A100 was locked in my office, and powered OFF - no connection to the sector) at first start, software TouchChip is back from the dead!

    Screen 'TouchChip Bios Extension' appeared after plugging, and my finger is required to load WXP!
    When connecting user WXP dialogue the additional message "you have not saved your fingerprint again... is always here, but I cannot start the machine without my fingerprint." After some digging later in PowerProtector (?) I found an option that says 'enable or disable the use of fingerprints for system and user password BIOS' or something like that.

    I turn this off, and the machine asked to reboot. It was the last time I saw the office.
    After reboot, the system asks password. BUT I DID NOT PUT ANY SYSTEM OR USER PASSWORD!
    Is this possible?
    I did something wrong?
    What is the solution?
    I'm locked out; I don't know why and how the BIOS is locked with a password (so I can't unlock it).
    Please someone help.

    Best regards, Georgios

    I don't know what exactly A100 computer laptop you have, but it seems that the laptop came with the Vista operating system preinstalled.

    You have installed XP and drivers XP only from the Toshiba page.
    But from my understanding, the BIOS should be updated too! The Satellite A100 series supports a special XP BIOS version. If the BIOS was not updated the laptop might not run correctly.

    I don't know if it could have a negative influence on the fingerprint, but nothing is impossible!
    However, the fact is that the BIOS asks for the password. If you don't know this, you need to remove the other... and this can be done by a service provider authorized in your country.

    Request assistance from technicians and explain the whole story! Maybe they will remove the password for free!

    Bye and good luck

  • Satellite A100-049 stops loading at the Windows loading screen

    It seems that the title has been changed from the one I posted, nothing wrong with that, but it is no longer accurate. It keeps loading the Windows loading screen, it freezes "before" that date. The Toshiba Logo POST screen, very first, you see when you turn on the laptop.
