• Satellite A100 - 784 buzzing noise coming from the display

  I hear a hum from the screen while I'm running my new Satellite A100-784. When the brightness of the display is set to the highest level the noise is higher. Any suggestions?
  Thank you

  Hello

  looks like a hardware failure. Maybe a faulty display ups or something similar. I suggest you:

  Bring your machine to an authorized local ASP. They must correct this mistake and replace defective parts of your laptop.
  Here´s a link to find a few ASP in your area:

• Satellite A100-523: I do not mean the bottom during audio playback

  Hey!

  I don't think it's a very BIG problem, but I like my music with a lot of down. When I play in my a100-523, who said in specifications that it has a sound card with basamplifier, but where the the bottom? I can not here all down at all.

  When I turn the music just the speakers more hard not along the bottom. It has as a maximum on the low level or something. Anyone has the same problem?

  thx for all answers.

  Hello

  I've already answered the similar question here in the forum in this thread:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=18703

  In any case, the Toshiba Virtual sound utility has been pre-installed on this laptop. Am I wrong?
  This utility controls certain audio functions.
  There you can change and set the audio settings for example: level trueBass.
  I think you should open this utility and if you n t know the simple options to use the help of this utility. (You have to press F1 to launch the help document)

  PS: If you have connected the laptop to stereo and use the stereo settings you should try to disable the virtual sound utility on the laptop.

• Satellite A100-036 - disturbing noise from power supply

  Hello!

  I use Satellite A100-036. Lately, I've noticed a whistling top-height standard adapter Toshiba coming, sort of some fluorescent lamps do, only much quieter.

  Yet, the adapter is on the table near the laptop, is disturbing. The character changes with the activity of the laptop (as the disk in use).

  Should I be worried, or is it OK?
  As I remember, there was no this sound when I bought it (2 years ago).

  Thank you!

  My adapter was defective. The cable broke and similar high-pitch whistles was so noticeable.
  I replaced the adapter because as Akuma said already this device uses high voltage and shouldn't t serve if she s defective!

• Unlocking on Satellite A100 BIOS

  Hello
  Anyone able to confirm the official and non-official line regarding it have a unlocked locked BIOS. Have a Toshiba Satellite A100 523 model: PSAA2E-01D00JEN

  Are the BIOS USB unlocking devices listed on ebay any use?

  Best regards

  HI Martin,

  Officially, the only way to get your BIOS password reset must take your laptop to authorized service center which will need to verify your ownership of notebook before feflashing of the BIOS.

  Unofficialy there are various "devices" that claim to reset or bypass the password of the BIOS so that you can access the BIOS Setup panels and also the operating system. You will find instructions for making these devices (involving generally taken cross-wiring and old parallel port) If you search Google for "BIOS Password Reset".

  I know that on some laptops, but are not guaranteed to work on all of them, especially models later these devices.

  Kind regards

• Satellite A100 PSAARE: Toshiba Power Saver + graphics card noise

  Hello

  Is there another URL where I can get a version update of Toshiba Power Saver for my computer drivers laptop Satellite A100 PSAARE other than the home page?

  It seems that it is not determinative of CPU fan (he always keep at maximum speed).

  Also, I noticed the graphics (GeForce 7600) too loud.

  If the monitor is off I can't hear it (just the CPU fan), but as soon as I started working it is audible and as a continuous beep kid.

  Is there a (software/hardware) fix for this?

  Kind regards.

  Hello

  The European driver of Toshiba page is one place where you can get the drivers and tools for your European Satellite A100 PSAARE model.
  This time it s a v7.03.07.I Power Saver for Windows Vista!

  But I must say that I see no problem of software on your laptop.
  Cooling modules and fans have to run with higher performance to make sure that your hardware components may be cooled properly.

  Maybe a cooling module cleaning might help to improve the internal cooling and noise reduction.
  From time to time, I clean my fans for laptop using compressed air stream and the fans are running more silent.

• Satellite A100-998: speakers make noise when it is on current alternative

  Hello, I have a
  Satellite A100-998
  Part number: PSAA9E-0PP044EN

  My speakers make a horrible noise slope high when the laptop is plugged into AC power, but not on battery power. It happens through my integrated sound card, my soundblaster card external as well as the headphones on both ports, and they have all the latest drivers anyway, so the problem is elsewhere. Noise appears on the windows out vague, i.e. all inhibition does not, nothing 'generates' sound as a program that runs in the background.

  Can anyone help? Here is a link to the noise, I recorded with helmet attached to the microphone port, it's quite quiet, you may increase your speakers to hear it. Link: [http://rapidshare.com/files/114859161/noise.mp3.html]

  I guess it's a kind of interference, but I'm a software guy, I don't know about these sorts of things.

  Thank you
  Andy

  I doubt that the software could cause this kind of thing, looks like it could be a problem of ground or a component of the motherboard.

  I take it to a service center and get them at a glance.

• Low noise Satellite A100-998

  Hello

  I bought a satellite A100-998 with Harman/Kardon speakers, even if the computer laptop screen at the store had a remarkably high compared to other brands, the machine I bought product a very low sound, although the dial at the front is turned to the maximum & all software orders are set to high? A

  NY suggestions? We advised me to update the audio driver, would this help (but why a laptop bought a few days ago would need to update its drivers?) and I need to update the Bios also, pls help as the low noise is upsetting to me much (not what I expected at all).

  Hello

  I think that the volume on the laptops is a matter of opinion.
  It is really not easy to tell if it s a bad or normal setting.
  Why do you offer that the sound is low? Compare you the sound properties with other laptops?

  Anyway, perhaps you're using really bad setting and only a switching of some controls would increase the sound quality.
  AFAIK the Realtek HD Sound Effect Manager has been installed on this laptop. You should find it in the control panel.

  Here, you can try to change some settings. Wave volume, volume of the CD, everything is possible.

• Satellite A100-545: noise intermittently slowing down the

  Satellite A100-545 when read no matter what audio work for example DVD CD or say Skype, MSM etc. sound intermittently slowing down for a few seconds then returns to normal, I downloaded the latest audio drivers.

  Hello

  Eventually it s only a matter of wrong setting.
  Toshiba virtual audio utility should be preinstalled on this laptop.
  Here, you can change some parameters such as the configuration of low frequency or high frequency sounds configuration

  I have sought similar questions in this forum and on the Satellite A100, sound problems has been resolved by updating the BIOS, then the audio driver.
  I don't know if this will help, but if the new version is available, you can try to update the BIOS of Mr. but do not forget to use the good BIOS because evil can damage the motherboard.

• Satellite A500 - rattling noise

  Hey guys,.

  I ve bought my A500 a month ago and since I got it, there is a small click on the right side, then where is the Num-Lock button.
  I Don t think it s HARD drive because it is not a permanent by clicking, it's like * click * seconds later * click * and so on...
  I heard that NHC (Notebook Hardware Control) should solve the problem, but I have windows 7 64 bit and the NHC doesn´t work under this version.
  So guys do you have an idea what I can do to stop it by clicking on? :)

  Sorry for my English but I m from Germany ;)

  Hello

  > I Don t think it s HARD drive because it is not one clicking permanent, its similar in a few seconds click and so on

  As I know, only the hard drive can make rattling noise in laptop computers.

  > I ve bought my A500 about a month ago

  Do not wait and go to AEP (SAV) which you can find here:

• Satellite A100-599 noise in Vista seems to be distorted and cracked

  The sound on my Satellite A100-599 seems to be very distorted and cracked.
  The problem seems to be new, it happens on the screen of welcome in windows vista and in some applications and games

  Also, it does not appear if you connect the headphones?
  If you can hear also cracked and distorted sound through the headphones, the problem may be related to software or the sound card problem.

  In the first step, I recommend you remove the old driver and install a new one from the Toshiba page.
  If this does not help, try to clean the registry and system files, use applications freeware called CCleaner.
  This program is great and can repair your system and registry

  If you see any improvements after these two procedures, I recommend reinstall the OS from the Toshiba restore CD.
  But please don t forget to create a backup of your data and private files because a new installation will format the HARD drive.
