Satellite A100-998: several question mark in Device Manager

Hello.

I hope someone can help me. I recently bought a 2nd hand A100-998. When I boot it I have several '' mark points '' on various points: Ethernet controller, mass storage controller, network controller, sm bus controller and video controller (vga compatiable).

I also have a message once the machine starts who says: the ATI Control Panel could not initialize because no ATI driver is installed, or the ATI driver does not work correctly. The ATI Control Panel will now stop.

The computer also says its new hardware found (all the controller ethernet etc.) but
I have no disc driver for these and can't find.

I think the problem is that my restore disk on a windows XP Home Edition, and it seems that the system must be windows media edition. Y at - there someone out there who knows what I can do or any other solution to solve this problem.

Thank you.

Hi David

All this yellow question mark appear due to lack and not installed drivers.
You must install all the drivers compatible and available, and you will get rid of all these issues.

On the Toshiba driver page, you will find all drivers XP for PSAA9E A100. Your A100-998 is one of the PSAA9E series then visit the page of European driver of Toshiba and download all the available drivers and tools.

In addition, you should take a look in the installation instructions document. This document tells you the right installation order!
The order of installation of good pilots is important and necessary.

Good luck

  • Satellite A100 good question - point yellow question mark in Device Manager

    I have a Satellite A100, model PSAANC - 3605C. I reloaded Windows XP Professional on this subject recently, and now I am unable to get any sound (it worked before reloading). If I choose Start, accessories, entertainment, Volume, it tells me that there is no active mixers available. I tried to reload the chipset and different audio drivers, including the UAA driver, still no luck.

    In addition, in my device manager I have a PCI device that shows as not available (point), and I'm unable to load a driver for him. What Miss me? How can I get my sound back?

    > I recently rebooted Windows XP Professional on this topic, and now I am unable to get any sound (it worked before reloading)

    Hey mate I got exactly the same problem after installing Win XP.
    I could solve it.

    I updated Windows XP to the State. I installed SP3 because this package contains the necessary corrective measures.

    Important: The SP3 must be installed before the sound driver!
    If you have installed the audio driver, you must first remove it! This can be done in Device Manager

    I did it and it worked.

  • Satellite A100-1AI watch CD player but Device Manager shows the DVD player

    I own a Satellite A100-1AI and went from Vista to Windows XP?

    My DVD player has been discovered as a HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T20N but is only showing as a CD drive in my computer screen.

    Also Device Manager shows Mass Storage Controller and controller SM Bus as an unknown device (other).

    Since the switch from Vista to XP I have not adjusted my BIOS settings

    How can I make my DVD see CD and erase those unknown devices

    Thanks in advance

    Spon

    Just a question;
    You can read and burn CDs?

    Regarding the unknown devices:
    These devices are only compatible Vista and so there is no drivers for the mass storage controller.

    Check this box:

    + After the installation of Windows XP, there might be a yellow exclamation by a "PCI memory controller" or * mass storage controller * in Device Manager. +

    _Solution: _
    + This unit is probably the module of Robson former Turbo Memory. +
    + This hardware will only supported by Windows Vista. +
    + That is why there is no Windows XP drivers. +

  • Satellite A100-998: mono/stereo mix not available under Vista

    Windows Vista and the Microsoft default value "High definition Audio Device" driver (automatically selected and installed by Setup of Vista), no recording device is listed with the exception of the Microphone, Line In, CD Audio, as in this screenshot of the A100-998 in question:
    http://img230.imageshack.us/img230/1981/a100998jp6.PNG

    No new Mix or record Waveout options of the device, which means that you can not, for example, doesn't record audio stream on the Internet. I tried the latest drivers from Realtek HD Audio for Vista (30/11/2006 R1.52). No change. Is there a way/driver to enable this as in other Windows Vista machines.

    Is also the audio material in the A100-998 "Vista Premium Ready" with the specifications set out in the http://www.optimalsound.net/?

    It's the third disappointment. The first two were that he has not delivered with the announced NVIDIA GF7400 (came to the square with 7300) and the second is that the hard drive is 4200 RPM (instead of the advertised 5400).
    The third issue is the audio issue detailed above.

    Here is a solution I found, but it is not free (costs $US28.20) and requires users to manually switch the "playback devices" each time that they execute it:
    http://www.NCH.com.au/SoundTap/index.html
    Unlike other programs like Audacity which are based on the Waveout/Mono/Stereo Mix as their sound source (and so do not work in this case), NCH SoundTap installs its own virtual driver and is therefore able to record everything you hear through your speakers in Windows Vista without the need for Waveout/Mono/Stereo Mix. "All the sound elements are"typed"by a pilot virtual directly in the kernel, so the process is perfect digital quality."

    However, it would be better that Vista Realtek/Toshiba/Microsoft "High definition Audio Device" driver is updated to include the Waveout/Mono/Stereo Mix (under "recording devices"), so that programs that rely on it are broken. SoundTap can do on Vista means that it is not a hardware limitation.

    PS new Vista sound effects as Loudness equalization, Room Correction, Bass Management and Virtual Surround are already supported in the current drivers Vista (the driver from Realtek v1.52 and that by default by Microsoft) in Satellite A100-998.

  • Satellite A100-998: Touchpad acts crazy

    Hello

    I am now the proud owner of a Satellite A100-998, with Intel Dual-Core, 2 GB of RAM, pregnant harman/kardon and so on.
    Is a beautiful piece. However, would be much nicer if I had no problem from touchpad:

    Do you want to use the scroll bar on the right, in any application (Word, Excel, Mozilla, no matter), or you want to close the window by clicking the X. But then your system seems to "think" that you are working on the underlying window and it takes your window away and simply shows the underlying window. As if she had the wrong coordinates pointer/Mouse/touchpad! I tried everything with the two parameters dozend touchpad software allows, but does not. No matter what the setting.

    The distributor said that I would ask Toshiba, that he has never heard such odd performances.
    A Toshiba engineer looking in this forum and answer these questions?
    Or does anyone know what to do about it?

    David

    Sorry, but I think I have to disappoint you. To my knowledge there is no Toshiba technicians or engineers. This is a user forum.

    However, I would like to help you, but I've also never heard these dysfunctions of touchpad.
    This problem also happens when you use an external USB mouse?

    I don't know who exactly touchpad software you use, but on my laptop I can configure the easy touchpad properties.
    Please check if you did not select the tap again and hold to drag the option. Maybe it has a bad influence on the device.

    In addition, you can configure different tab area. Each tab on the touchpad can perform different actions. So check it!

    Also check the movement of the pointer and other like edge options request. There must be parameters that cause strange movements

  • Satellite A100-998 - support 2 GB RAM modules?

    Hello

    I'm looking to upgrade the memory of my laptop. The vehicle currently have 2x1GB modules in the expansion slots. The manual says it takes PC4200 200 pin memory, but does not specify if it will accept 2 GB sticks as this http://www.ebuyer.com/product/164911. It does not mention of the sticks of 256 MB, 512 MB and 1 GB.

    However, I see no reason why he would not support the higher capacity, if I wanted to move to 4-GB memory total. Can someone confirm that this will work? Thank you!

    Andrew

    Hi André,.

    According to the specs on the page of Toshiba, Satellite A100-998 supports 2-GB memory modules. This means that you can install the 2 GB of memory in each memory slot for a maximum capacity of 4 GB.

    For example, I recommend high-quality Kingston modules. I always buy Kingston modules for upgrade and never had any problems.

    I tried the drive with a music CD and it works very well and thinking the disc that came with the camera was defective, I tried in my desktop pc, and it installed without a problem.

    Anyone have any ideas why my portable drive is to play music CDs, but not to pick up the cd software...

  • Can not resize the partition on the Satellite A100-998

    Hello
    I am owner of toshiba satellite A100-998 with 200 GB hard drive. By default there is only 1 partition on the HARD drive when I try to resize this partition and create another 8 partition magic shows me error that it cannot write to the boot sector and it fails. I didn't install any software on this computer and it has the latest version of the bios.

    Ranish partition Manager displays the same error.
    I don't know what the problem is because I've done similar operations on multiple computers with all the problems.

    Thanks in advance for any suggestions

    Hello

    I also use the magic of 8 Partitions for creating and management of simple partitions on the HARD disk.
    But I wonder about the size of your HARD drive. As I know the Partitions Magic 8 does not support 200 GB HARD drive. I didn t to test but the partitions on the manufacturing site manual says it does not support.

    However, sometimes, I had similar problems with my 80 GB HARD drive. The simple solution was to defragment single partitions.

    I put t know if it will help you because of you HARD drive size, but you can try it.
