Satellite A100-812: low CPU scores

My A100-812 had serious problems.
First of all, it doesn't seem to work without notebook cooler.

But the reason why I'm here, it's that my Core Duo T2250 score only 3.4 of Vista Basic.
According to a developer who is too low for this type and he suggests that it is a production error.

I've already updated my BIOS and CPU drivers.

Which is more expensive
Ralph

Hello

Why do you think the Vista partition is too low?

The Intel Dual - Core Mobile Processor T2250 supports 1733 MHz and 533 MHz FSB. But it does not support virtualization technology.
I have a similar CPU that work with 1.7 Ghz (~ 1700 Mhz) and I've got a 3.6 Vista experience. This isn't a big difference

But I wonder about this comment;
> First of all, it doesn't seem to work without a laptop cooler.

What do you mean exactly? Do you mean that your laptop is overheating?

In this case, I assume that the CPU does not work with maximum performance to avoid a higher internal temperature
In your case, I would check if the cooling modules are not blocked and so dust and debris preventing the cooling fans.

  • Touchpad does not work on the Satellite A100-812

    Hello, I just bought a Toshiba Satellite A100-812 (C. Duo, 2 GB RAM, GF 7600, Vista Premium). I disabled the synaptics driver in msconfig. After a while, I turned on the driver but Touchpad still does not work. All the fn buttons work correctly (turning brightenswith FN + F6 or FN + F7 etc.) but FN + F9 (turning the Touchpad) does not always work.
    Help, please.

    ([email protected])

    Hello

    you did a reinstallation of the driver? I think that if you have disabled it with msconfig, it should work after reactivation and otherwise, to remove this driver and install it
    Once again. (So the touchpad) driver should be available after reinstalling and restarting Windows.

    Would be recognizing a few comments if it worked. :)

  • Does support PCI Satellite A100-812 (PSAAR) standard MXM slot

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A100-812 at the moment and I was wondering if the PCI-e slot is 1 on the mxm standarts.

    And if so, could it be replaced by another graphics card, say a 8600M GT?

    Hi Marien

    The Satellite A100 does not support the MXM (Mobile PCI Express Module) interface and the graphics card or upgrade replacement is certainly not possible!
    The graphics card is fixed and welded on the map and you can not delete it!

    If you want you can use the advanced search option forum and could search for similar topics to this topic.
    But I guess that you will always find the same info that is; GPU upgrade is not possible

    Best regards and have a nice day!

  • Satellite A100-812 - drivers for Windows 7 64 bit?

    I have a Satellite A100-812 with Vista 32 bit. I want to do a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit (I have now 4 GB of RAM). I looked, and there is no update available BIOS after 2007. I searched drivers 64-bit Windows 7 and cannot find Windows 7 32-bit drivers for this laptop, but there are Vista64 bit drivers available.

    I'll be able to install the 64 bit version of Windows 7?

    As I know many Vista drivers are compatible with win 7. Thus, it is worthy to try it. :)

  • Satellite A100-784 (PSAANE) - CPU is 100% most of the time

    Hello

    I have this Toshiba Satellite A100-784 and it has Vista Home Basic as the operating system. The CPU is at 100% most of the time, and I don't know what to do more (I've eliminated all unnecessary programs that might have a background process). Sill, form 100% of the CPU, the core load takes 40 to 60% most of the time.
    I thought to install XP to make it work, but after reading the forum is not that simple, due to the fact that the HARD drive can be SATA.

    Can you help me with this situation? I can hardly work on this laptop and I think to change the brand if I don't find a solution to this, even Toshiba is my favorite.
    Thanks for your time answering this problem.

    Kind regards!

    All you have done is just, but you must understand that no one knows here Setup OS and what you've done in the past.
    If you are not satisfied with the way in which your laptop is now running the best thing you can do is to back up all your important data and install Vista using delivered Toshiba Recovery CD/DVDs.

    After doing this you will own preinstalled OS and everything should be OK again.

  • Satellite A100 - 495 (PSAA9) - CPU and GPU upgrade

    Hi all

    I have a few questions.
    I have a Satellite A100-495 with 2 GB of Ram, Core2Duo 1.83 GHz (2 x; T5600) and an NVIDIA Geforce 7600go.
    I want to spend the CPU and the GPU. Is this possible?
    I don't want to do. I am looking for a store (if possible in Germany) that can do this.

    If its possible, what it costs? And what store can I speak?

    If this is not possible-> why? It is fixed; It getting too hot?

    What solution do I? I don't want to buy a new laptop.

    Kind regards
    Dave

    Update CPU and GPU on laptop computers is complicated enough or is not possible. At first, I must say that GPU is part of the motherboard and graphics card can not be upgraded at all.

    What about the CPU upgrade? Toshiba authorized service providers will not do that and the CPU upgrade is not supported. Few people on this forum have talked about CPU upgrade, but for me the risk is too high. All hardware components are adapted to the work well together and also to reduce the risk of damaging the material. The BIOS is also suitable for the specific hardware configuration. The values of the fans are also tested and there is no risk of overheating.

    Change CPU, you will get no more powerful laptop. Modern processors are powerful enough and a few MHz more won't do anymore difference. What you can do is to increase the RAM to the maximum level - 4 GB. That s all what you should do and your laptop runs a lot faster.

    Also be careful on the configuration of the operating system. This will also help make your laptop faster than before.

    By the way: for operations you need more power? What you want to do with your laptop?

  • Satellite A100-163 low wireless signal

    I just bought a Satellite A100-163, and while wireless, it works to the full 54 members of Parliament he said that the signal is very weak. My old 2430 402, who is sitting beside her said the signal is very strong and I have recently set up a satellite Pro A100 Botc on the same desktop and who received a signal strong. The router, a Voyager 2100 is only 5 feet away. Any thoughts anyone

    Post edited by: billthefire

    Hello

    The WLan signal depends on many factors. But maybe we can solve your problem with changing some settings in the WLan card properties.
    Go to Device Manager and enter the properties of card Wlan (right click)
    You will find a power management tab. The power save option should be disabled.

    In addition, you can check another option in the properties. I think it should also be something such as a scope of the WiFi signal. Sorry, I can t remember the full name.

    However check it out.

  • Output TV does not work properly with my new Satellite A100-812

    Hey everybody,
    A little, I have a problem with my new laptop if not satisfactory.
    The only thing that does not work (except some progs) in Vista is out of my tv.

    After many hours spent trawling the net, I came across different solutions, but none worked.
    The A100-812 has a geforce Go7600 who has taken TV svhs.
    First, I tried to connect to my tv through my old cinch cable. It took me 2 days before I gave up and bought a new svhs cable. Cable that works now and after a hell of a lot of attachment,

    I finally have a working tv. Except that its black and white. I used the click right-> NVIDIA Control Panel and changed the signal. I live in the Netherlands, where B/PAL is the standard. But even in trying all the different types of signals I don't get any color.

    Someone else has had this problem and solved? I downloaded the nvidia latestet drivers and I'm desperate, I bought the laptop to make it work!
    Any suggestion is more than welcome.
    See you soon,.
    Retriever

    Hello

    the problem is that the nvidia drivers are still not final. I have an A100 and desktop system and two systems have problems with tv output. It s Yes, probably a clear driver problem.
    After many surveys, I found many comments in the forum of nvidia, where users are desperate and angry about this issue.
    Thus, the only choice is to change XP up to what nvidia will release some drivers work... that s my way.

    Cheers to a disappointed user nvidia

  • Satellite A100-259: low noise level

    I just bought an A100-259. that seems to have the reading levels of low level on all sounds. I turned all maximum devices but the level is still not sufficient on the speakers. The earphones are about right.
    Any ideas?

    Hello

    I found the details of the A100 and there should be installed virtual sound application.
    I recommend you to check the parameters in this application.
    Play around with these settings and try to change it.

    In addition you will also find a reltek affect his manager in the control panel.
    Here, you can also change the audio settings which are responsible for the sound quality of the speaker.

  • Satellite A100-192 - high CPU temperature

    Hello

    I have this laptop for several months. Up to now, cpu temp was about 63 degrees Celsius at the Summit. Since a few days temp is 63 maximum idle and 73 when... the game worms 2!
    What could go wrong?

    There is nothing that would drain my cpu, nothing has changed, the CPU has a good air circulation.
    I don't know what to do. When I play the need for speed: carbon, the game freezes and hungs after awhile.

    Help, please.

    Hello

    You know that each device preinstalled in the notebook produced heat.
    Sometimes more operating devices with maximum performance. The devices run with maximum when performance performance heavyweight like games runs on the laptop.

    On my laptop Toshiba power saver determines the method of cooling and the processing speed of the CPU. I think that this is also preinstalled on your laptop. Therefore, you should first check these options.

    Second Toshiba graphics driver must be installed on the laptop and not any other because the Toshiba has the driver supports protection against overheating. This driver controls the performance of the graphics card. If the temperature rises to a higher level if the driver decreases the performance of the graphics card.

    Last but not least, you should check your module cooling fans. Sometimes the dust and debris keep the laptop cooling properly.
    You must also have sufficient free space around the laptop for cool air circulation.

  • Satellite A100 - very low speaker volume

    Hello

    Recently, the volume of my speaker has been very low - barely audible.
    The speakers are Realtek High definition.

    The volume is set at 100%. I checked the properties of reading, recording and sounds and they all work very well.
    The problem occurs if I play CDs, videos online or applications such as RealPlayer - anything really.

    Any advice would be much appreciated.

    Thank you

    Gary

    Hello

    I guess you are which means that the sound card (it s Realtek High definition) and not speakers ;)
    However, have you checked the settings in the control panel-> Manager Realtek HD?

    Do it! There are a lot of different parameters that control the quality of the sound and there you can assign different audio effects

    I think you should check this certainly!

  • Satellite A100-812: screen brightness does not not & screen turns off after a while

    Some power management features do not work after a bios update (5.90).
    The display brightness can be changed in the power manager, or the top menu system. In the power manager, the cursor can be moved, but the brightness is not set. Toshiba menu system appears to hang on trying to change the brightness with F6 - F7 and won't move the cursor.

    In addition, the screen does not turn off after the set amount of minutes in the power manager.

    What is going on? How can this be repaired?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Some questions; Why you have updated the BIOS?
    Are you sure you used the right BIOS?

    In my opinion you shouldn't t to update anything if the laptop works properly!

    However, try to access the BIOS, set the default settings and save the settings before exiting the BIOS.
    If this does not help, I would pick up the laptop with the Toshiba Recovery CD.

    Good bye

  • Need driver for the DVD-ROM in my Satellite A100-812

    Who can help me with the driver for the DVD-ROM in my notebook? It's a rug * a UJ-850 s. These days he asks that whenever you load a disc (CD or DVD) if I want it to be formatted. All that s what it does. I tried to find the driver for peut-t, but I find on the Web. Can someone help me solve this problem?
    Thank you

    Hendrik

    There is no such thing as a pilot for ODD (optical disc drive). It uses the standard Microsoft driver. Try please remove the disc from the Device Manager, then restart the laptop. After reboot the ODD will be detected and installed it again. Check please if the problem persists.

    If yes I recommend you to install the driver for DVD-RAM (DVDForm Utility). You can find it on the download page of Toshiba. I use the 3.0.9.0a version. and it works perfectly.
