Satellite A100-487: game does not work correctly

My son has a 487 A100, running on Windows XP. I recently bought him a game and it loads fine. The game played for about 15 minutes and close that back to my desktop screen and gives an option to send an error report.

It has 1 GB of RAM so I am a little confused, this could be a graphic problem?
Can someone advise me and point me in the right direction. any help appreciated

It will be interesting to know what kind of game you bought for your son. It's really not easy to say what can be the problem. You will find an error report in the event viewer?

  • Satellite A100-049: games does not work well

    I bought this new laptop the other day and it came with vista home premium. Everything is perfect, except that it's terrible to run the games! Some in such a way that my old laptop with sis650 chipset and 256 MB of ram was better.

    Im running games aren't anything special, and I used to record videos from my amiga emulator which is impossible to do with this laptop. Even when I play a game on well below the graphics settings good I'll choppyness and stuttering.

    I've heard about how nvidia drivers are with vista but I found no drivers and none seem to make one difference other than that I get more options in the control panel. Searched and tried most of the things I can think off. _.

    The specs are-
    Intel (r) core (TM) 2 CPU T5500 @ 1.66GHz 1.67 GHz processor
    2024MB of RAM
    NVIDIA GeForce Go 7300

    Any ideas?

    Hello

    I m not surprised. I think that many older applications are not 100% compatible with Vista and I think that the drivers are also worthy of improvement.
    I put t see many possibilities.
    Either you wait for all the patches for vista or you'll change to XP.

  • My Phlinxtogo game does not work correctly

    Original title: "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Pogo Games\Phlinx Go\PhlinxToGo.exe" __My Phlinxtogo game does not work correctly ".

    \Pogo Games\Phlinx to Go\PhlinxToGo.exe

    Hello
     
    1. what operating system is installed on your computer?
    2. What is the exact error message you get?
    3. what happens when you try to run the game?
    4. has been the work of game much earlier?
     
    There is currently no information on the compatibility of Phlinxtogo with Windows 7.
     
    However, you can perform two or three steps and check if it helps.
     
    Step 1:
     
    Once the Phlinxtogo game is downloaded, right click on the .exe file and run as administrator.
     
    Step 2:
     
    If this does not help, run the game in Windows compatibility mode and check.
     
    If none of the suggestions work, I'm afraid you must contact the manufacturer of game for a better support.

  • Satellite A100: Recovery DVD does not work

    I want to restore my Toshiba Satellite A100 laptop to its original factory condition, but the DVD that comes with the package of recovery does not work...

    I have load to start computer press F12, and it starts on the DVD. It says "Loading RAMDISK Image", after which I am told by Toshiba customer service there should be options to clean up the hard drive or restore Windows XP.

    However, after VIRTUAL disk, I see a cursor on a black screen, and then the laptop off and restarts. After the connection, NO CHANGES made...

    What is the problem with that? How can I really use this recovery DVD?
    Someone help me please.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    The recovery procedure is not difficult.
    Just try to boot from the recovery CD or DVD and follow the Guide on the screen line.

    Your problem is very strange. You have created all the partitions on the HARD drive?
    I put really t know why your recovery CD doesn't work properly, but I think you should try to completely format the disk (also partitions), then try to boot from the recovery CD.

    Don't forget that the laptop is in the boot mode. (don t mix the standby or hibernation mode)

  • Satellite A30 - CD-ROM does not work correctly

    My CD ROM is not working properly because the drivers corrupt. I tried uninstalling etc. How to load new drivers or even reformat from the recovery disk when the CD-ROM drive does not work?

    I agree with Maurice. If the drive can read a recovery media or any other bootable media there must be a hardware problem and I assume that the optical disk drive is defective.

  • New keyboard on Satellite L500 - 19 X does not work correctly

    Hello

    About a month ago, I spilled pepsi on my laptop and had sent for repair. I came home today and he had a new keyboard installed, among other things. But the new keyboard does not work properly.

    A bunch of key type is close to letters instead. For example, type 'a' gives 'aq1', 'b' gives 'bgt '. It seems to type the letters vertically above. Some work very well.

    Is the new defective keyboard, or is it need calibrated or something? My laptop model is L500-19 X.
    Thank you.

    My advice: don't waste your time on the forum waiting for help. How do give you the right answer to your questions?
    I have only one answer to your question: no, keyboard doesn t need to be calibrated.
    Contact the service provider as soon as possible and ask for help.

  • Satellite P30: Energy saving does not work correctly

    Hello
    I have a Toshiba Satellite P30 (with Windows XP) and I have problems with my energy saving mode. When I use it for games and other applications of high power, it gets really hot on the edge of the moitor and stops.

    Is it for the last month or two. Before that, it was absolutelly no problem. I checked the file TPSTrace and got this error message:
    A fatal error has occurred. The program will end. Code: 0x0 rental: MainFrm.cpp (1317)

    I do not know what to do with it and how to solve the problem. Any ideas?

    Hi Thomas

    It is not easy to give you an accurate diagnosis, but in my opinion your laptop isn't hot because of the energy savings. Satellite P30 is pretty old laptop and maybe you should clean your laptop.

    Have you done this before?

    This error seems to be serious and what you can do is to remove the preinstalled energy saver and after restarting try installing it again.

    Just FYI: Watch tool is very useful, but certainly not so important and your system can function very well without it. Because of this, I presume that portable hot is because of dust inside. With more CPU and activity hardware graphics card will be hot and must be cooled properly. If the cooling rack does not clean this cannot happen. Initially, notebook will be hot, but one day she is probably turned off without any warning.

    In the first trial step to clean your laptop and remove all the dust under cooling grill.

  • Satellite A100: Crossover Cable does not work

    I have a laptop TOSIHBA SATELLITE A100
    I tried to connect my laptop to another computer by Cable Crossover
    and he wasn't wotking, the sign (X) appeared to me as if the cable was not plugged.

    Note that (when I put my cable DSL ' it works well on the net)
    to know that I tried this cable with the other compuers, and it worked fine.

    Hello

    Strange?  :|
    I think that it s certainly not a physical LAN port problem because as you have already said the ADSL cable works fine.

    You have the right settings TCP/IP to connect to the other computer?
    Both computers must be in the same workgroup. In addition, you must set the IP fix, the subnet mask and the gateway!

    Also, try to remove the map LAN device manager and restart the laptop.
    After the new reboot the OS must load the required drivers and should recognize the card even once.

    Good luck

  • Satellite A100-596 - RAM does not work in location B

    After meeting with the blue screen of death, my A100-596 was out of service for some time. I decided to give it a last violin and had it work. I removed one of the modules of 512 MB ram and it works fine.

    The problem is that if I put the RAM module the computer starts not (the same problem that he had). I used a program called CPUZ and it recognizes the RAM in two slots (if I insert the other when the computer started upward).

    Why CPUZ recognizes the RAM, but windows does not start with it inserted or even to recognize.

    I've played around with the RAM modules. Two of them work in the A slot but neither location B. The maximum extension of my motherboard is 2 GB, it means that I can't put a 2 GB module in one of the slots?

    It seems strange that CPUZ fortunately sees the RAM in slot B, but windows does not start with it in.

    Help, please.

    > If I insert the other when the computer started upward
    Really pass the RAM if the computer was started? Laughing out loud
    I think that this is not a good idea. An upgrade of RAM should be done only if the computer or portable computer is turned off.

    I put t understand why can CPU - Z can recognize the RAM but Windows not? To run CPU - Z, you must start Windows before.

    However, I think that if both modules n t work in location B the slot is faulty.
    Also if you can upgrade the laptop to 2 GB not using a module with 2 GB of memory. Use two modules with 1 GB for each module.

  • Satellite A100: internal microphone does not work

    Well well, my type cell phone (or so it is said) is a Satellite A100, I have everything (I think) works fine, but it is only when I try to use my built-in mic phone the problem starts, it won't work!

    It is said there is a built-in microphone, but the bar will not move as he cannot hear my voice, even when I'm screaming! I tried on msn thinking it was a small problem, but he said that had heard no noise!

    It worked fine when I plugged my microphone in my webcam installed, but the problem is now, my older brother was and broken than microphone and I wanted that my only integrated to work but is not!

    He said that the microphone is a Realtek audio HD with SRS, so I need to know if anyone can help me with this? Please?

    Hello

    Could you post a detailed laptop Satellite A100-xxx name?
    It would be very interesting to know if the laptop supports an internal microphone or not.

    To my knowledge, some of the A100 don t support the internal mic and that is why you should use the external mic

  • Re: Satellite A100 - product key does not work on Vista installation

    Hey,.

    I'm paid to reinstall Windows Vista and all the drivers on a Toshiba Satellite A100 and it doesn't have a Vista disc, but I used guggle 1.6 to get the product key. That I reinstalled Vista Home Premium Grand with my copy of what I bought.

    But now when I try to enter the product key, it says its already in service and I get an error message.

    What should I do?

    Hello!

    The product key on the underside of the laptop is an OEM key and belongs to the preinstalled OEM version. This means that you can t use this key with a normal Vista installation disc that you can buy on the internet or in a store of the computer.

    If you want to install Vista you should a disk recovery Toshiba or a disc of Microsoft with the corresponding product key.

    You can order a Toshiba Toshiba recovery disc directly:

  • Satellite U200: DVD - ROM does not work correctly

    DVD - ROM not working. After the fire of two optical drive DVD - RW, loss of ability to burn and can read only CD with difficulties of the sum. It is not possible to recovery operating system.

    Look like lost laser precise positioning device and can no longer read high-density data on DVD, but on the sum of CD singing can be found with difficulty.

    Your description sounds like a reader lens problem.
    Probably the lens can not calibrate in the right position, and that's why the drive can't handle DVD media.

    Bad news buddy this problem is not repairable with updates. Above all it s a hardware problem and the drive should be replaced!

    I would recommend contact the ASP which is responsible for you country to organise a replacement.
