• Satellite A100 doesn't detect camcorder connected to the firewire port

  Recently, I upgraded my Satellite A100 for XP Pro SP3.
  In order to capture the video from my camcorder Canon I attached the camera to the 1394 port, but the computer does not detect my camera.

  I have changed the cable, restored the software factory default but the presist still problem.
  The camera works fine with another computer, which means that there is some setting or a hardware problem with 1394 port.

  Help, please.

  Hello

  Did you check device manager if the IEEE 1394 (firewire port States) bus host controller has been recognized correctly?
  Are there any yellow exclamation marks?

  Try this workaround:
  -in Device Manager, remove the IEEE 1394 bus host controller
  -restart the laptop
  -Wait that windows reinstalled this controller again
  -Connect the camera and turn it on.

  See you soon

  One question; have you noticed any problems with your operating system?
  I mean; is the computer laptop freezes or have you noticed some suddenly stops?
  These problems can be caused by a temperature inside the laptop and the laptop overheats.

  If the problems mentioned above don't appear, then the laptop doesn't overheat and I suppose that the temperature is not too high!
  I put t know if you have experience with laptop big or not, but there s nothing unusual that some areas of the laptop are much hotter than the others.
  Is what area of the laptop hot? Is there placed cooling modules?

  I have a satellite A100 (not sure the model, but the model is PSAA9A-00S00F)

  The sound does not work, but I haven't used the noise for about 7 or 8 months ago.
  Mute is not on, all volume controls are ok.
  There is only the internal speakers.
  I downloaded the current drivers.
  Running Windows XP Pro.
  I did the Windows updates that I can find and made the process of troubleshooting through Windows.
  I'm out of warranty so wouldn't send away to get looked at unless absolutely necessary due to cost.

  The CD/DVD drive is not read, but the sound is not related to this, because it will not healthy for web content.

  Someone at - it other suggestions of what could be the problem?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  You reinstall Windows or only the sound suddenly stopped working?
  And the sound card is in the Device Manager? There are some yellow exclamation points?

  Before installing the new drivers, you must remove the old drivers first. This means remove the older version of the driver and the software, and then restart the laptop. Use CCleaner to clean the registry and restart. After this installation, the latest driver from Toshiba Europe page.

• How to reinstall media player express on Satellite A100-683?

  For some stupid reason, I managed to format the partition that contains the media express the player.

  I really think that I have ever received a recovery cd or I lost it in a mather of seconds after I bought my Satellite A100-683 in 2006.

  Never the less: I want this program back so I called the technical assistance service. They have managed to tell me that they cannot provide me with a recovery disk because it contained the program note only Microsoft (and Microsoft does not allow redistribution more this program).

  My questions, subject that has been media express player and if they had any suggestions where to look for the software, went unanswered.

  So my question is:
  Can someone give me please with software that reinstalls express MediaPlayer in its Linux partition on the hard drive of my laptop?

  > I really think that I have ever received a recovery cd or I lost it in a mater of seconds after I bought my Satellite A100-683 in 2006.

  Have goggled a bit that has found that this laptop was certainly delivered with the Toshiba Recovery CD and the CD Express Media Player.
  So, I think that you lost!

  > I want this program to go back so I called the technical assistance service. They have managed to tell me that they can t give me a recovery disk because it contained the Microsoft program single note (and Microsoft doesn t allow a redistribution of this program).

  AFAIK the OneNote has been installed on the Toshiba Recovery CD but the Express Media Player has been on the external CD. So it should not be bundled with the software OneNote.

  > So my question is: can someone please provide me with a software that reinstalls express MediaPlayer in its Linux partition on the hard drive of my laptop?
  Unfortunately, I n t think someone can do the official Toshiba forum isn't a platform of Exchange software ;)

• 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)

• WLAN makes my Satellite A100 blow

  I have been using Satellite A100 for 2 years and never a problem before. I run it on Windows XP pro 2002 SP2.

  My WLAN drivers were Atheros. Last night, my cell phone was hang. When I rebooted it and now THAT WLAN will connect to the internet, it blocks my laptop, no key doesn't work, nothing. So I rebooted with WIFI off and reinstalled the other drivers that he used to hang my system. Now what happens is that I can turn on my WLAN only after that I waited for windows load on the system and then I put it and it works very well, if I restart my system with the map LAN switched on my system crashes after loading the operating system.

  Please help me. What I can do. I live my life on the internet then can't think of living with it. Please suggest something.

  Hello

  That s really strange boyfriend, but maybe you installed updates to Windows or something else and now the WLAN driver is not compatible.
  I think you should update the WLAN driver and you can find the latest version on the Toshiba WLAN Portal: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/

  I hope it's useful for you.

• Satellite A100 (PSAA9A) and Vista DVD maker problem

  I just got windows ultimate on my laptop that I got about 2 and a half years and he says about this Windows Vista capable. So I have to drop out and everything but when I open something like Vista DVD maker, he says that my video card meets the minimum requirements.

  Check my driver and it says Standard VGA graphics card? Strange huh? So went on Notebook driver downloads > Satellite > A100 (PSAA9), but then he only gave me the opportunity to PSAA9E and I need A at the end.

  In any case I put t know whether or not that counts, but I downloaded the driver and check the update driver > Browse pilot, first of all it only let me not click Desktop and didn t let me inside the office even with submenu.

  So I just clicked next and guess what! After all that palaver he said the pilot has the last updated and doesn t need to be installed but it obviously hasn't t because it's model is something starting with 6 and the driver Vista I want download it something starting with 7, so I'm really stuck and really help.

  Thank you

  Hello

  At the bottom of the unit, you should find the name of detailed; something like Satellite A100 - xxx PSA.

  Could you please post this number and name?

  The A100 is certainly capable of Vista, but this does not mean that you can use all the features of Vista.
  My other laptop manufacturer is Vista capable, but for example the doesn t run Vista Aero due to the performance of the weak graphics card.

  Creating Windows DVD is available in Windows Vista Home Premium and Windows Vista Ultimate Edition, but some features may require advanced or additional hardware.

  Check this box:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/products/windowsvista/features/details/dvdmaker.mspx

  In any case, the graphics driver on the right must be installed to ensure that such feature Vista can run correctly.

• Problem WiFi Switch on my Satellite A100

  If I turn on my Satellite A100-999 with the Wi - Fi switch to 'on' position is UNABLE to connect to an available WLAN. But if I turn the switch off and then on again, works normally. If I'm going on my first pc and on the Welcome screen I turn on the Wi - Fi switch, it works ok, either.
  I know that other peoples always have the switch 'on' and the system when connect detect a WLAN.

  I need help to fix this problem
  Thank you and receive apologies for my bad English.
  Diego

  Is this a serious question for you?

  I don't know why the WLan doesn't automatically connect after that the laptop was turned on but eventually it s m for only the settings of the software.

  My laptop supports Intel WiFi card and so I can connect to the WLan using the Intel ProSet utility or the own XP settings.
  The Intel ProSet utility is a client application of WLan and it configures the WLan settings. Here, I chose my favorite Wireless Lan and together the settings always connect automatically to this key Wlan if available (or something like that) and it works fine

  I put t say you must use the Intel ProSet utility, but maybe you should test different options and different configuration settings.

  Anyway, as mentioned above, I put t think that it s really a serious problem and I could live with them.

• Cannot match Smartphone with Satellite A100 for ActiveSync

  Hi, on board.

  I can't use ActiveSync to sync my phone with the laptop; It seems that the twinning of 2 devices fails.
  With USB connection I can ActiveSync successfully.

  My devices are:
  * Toshiba Satellite A100 (PSAA9) with ActiveSync 4.2 and Toshiba Bluetooth Stack 4.20.01
  * HTC MTeor with Windows Mobile 5.0 SmartPhone

  I tried to follow the HowTo in:
  http://APS.toshiba-tro.de/Bluetooth/

  How-> ActiveSync via Bluetooth (TOSHIBA PC - smartphone with Windows Mobile 5)

  I find cela the opportunity to say that it is wrong that the HowTo is not in the English language.

  In any case, I followed him through until page 8, 18 statement, where the third picture shows the box in ActiveSync checked; my phone doesn't have this box: it has "Serial Port".
  I check "Serial Port" (also tried not to check...) and continue until the 21 statement. Well, it stops there; I don't understand that messagebox; in fact nothing happens, not in the laptop or the phone and they don't get matched.

  Found here a recent thread, asserting the need to define COM7 in the registry. I did it. Oddly enough, COM7 is not my LoalCOM server, but a customer LocalCOM; COM8 is the LocalCOM server.
  I tried also with COM8.

  I tried to remove Bluetooth Stack completely and reinstall (embedded version and latest version).
  I reinstall ActiveSync 4.2.
  I also tried with ActiveSync 4.5 BETA.

  Nothing worked for me.
  Help, please.

  Note: I have activesynced the same phone via bluetooth successfully with a HP laptop which has its own bluetooth software with, I think, virtual serial port driver of widdcomm.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  This Smartphone is not known to me, but I really put t know why you try to use BT between MTeor and laptop when connecting USB works. Using this connection, you can do whatever you want.

  BT on Smartphone is useful if you want to connect the small BT headset, but I don't see the reason to try this when the USB connection is working successfully.

  If there is no success I put t think it is Toshiba related question and also try to contact HTC support. They know more about the own products.

  Good luck!

I've used this for some time until recently all 3 USB ports are suddenly does not work, I must have done something terribly wrong without my knowledge. Windows XP can detect whenever I have insert a memory stick on it but doesn't have the driver software. I tried to download a driver from a link in a previous thread on this site but cannot install it. Any suggestions? Pleeeeeease help... Thank you...

  I don't know which driver you tried to install, but for USB, you will not find any driver. For the use of the USB ports, you will need to install the Chipset driver.

  Sorry, but it's really not easy to say what the problem is here. If you have a recovery CD try to make the new installation of the OS. If this is insufficient, it may be hardware problem.

• Satellite A100-847: how to set 1680 x 1050 on external screen?

  Hello

  I have a problem.

  My laptop Satellite A100 - 847 PSA9E 2 GB of RAM, nvidia 7600 Go 256 MB.
  I also have external 22' SyncMaster 226BW WSXGA 1680 x 1050

  The problem is that with the original driver (84.68) I can not set the resolution to 1680 x 1050, but I know that the video card supports. I tried the www.laptopvideo2go.com drivers but still those who do not work perfectly.

  Can someone tell me what to do?
  Perhaps the BIOS update can fix this problem? Or maybe another solution?

  Please help :(

  According to the specification of the graphics card (in combination with the preinstalled display driver) doesn't support resolution 1680 x 1050. Supported resolution is 1600 x 1200.

  If yiou can't find solution as a result of this web page, I really don't know what you can do. This page a little better. There must be detailed how change resolution modes.

• Satellite A100-201 touchpad problems

  I searched through the forums and many people have had problems with the touchpad, but nobody seems to have quite the same problem, as I have! If this has been asked to answer also my apologies, but I can't!

  I have a Satellite A100-201 with a 'Tablet' (as described by the technique of the Toshiba product - no mention if it comes to Synaptics or Alps, or anything else, is not that it would mean anything for me anyway. It is certainly NOT a dual pad that turns on with the blue buttons, etc.)

  Have had the laptop for over a year, and I got it all the time I have a problem where 'sometimes' function on the touchpad scroll bar doesn't work, all on his own. Sometimes I turn on the computer and it works fine, sometimes not. The same goes for the service where you tap the top right of the button and the narrowings of the active window (don't know what this is called). There seems to be no reason for this, I find the scrolling feature really useful. The rest of the touchpad functions works very well.

  I don't know if it's to do with drivers as I am not computer-oriented (I can use one for day to day stuff, but that's all) or upgrades of windows as no one else mentioned on another thread.

  If anyone has any idea how I can:

  (a) turn back ON the scrolling feature and

  (b) set it so it is permanently under voltage I would be really grateful!

  Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  do you have challenged yourself with synaptics/Alps touchpad Control Center / (whateveryourtouchpadsmanufactureris) and checked the settings?

  As far as I know are these touchpads really complicated when you use them, but * more * usable after setting the key to touch about the sensitivity options, etc...
  You can configure almost the entire touchpad area to adapt to your needs...

  Please, check the settings and make sure that your keyboard is configured correctly.

  Hello

  I don't really know what you're talking about. Your laptop model is listed for a long time and I do not understand where you found this satellite 3000.

  Go to http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp and choose your model of laptop with good description. All that s!

  Sorry, but I don't think there is a problem with professionalism, but only with you and the way you're looking for info on the web page.

• Satellite A100-159 and Motorola Bluetooth Headset HS815

  Hello
  I can not connect the headset bluetooth Motorola HS815 portable satellite A100-159.
  I disable MS bluetooth and installed the latest Toshiba Bluetooth Stack V4.00.36.
  It's my internal bluetooth device from toshiba:
  077B = "internal Bluetooth CSR (19.2) v2.0 EDR.

  (1) I turn on the headset HS815
  (2) the Bluetooth manager sees a device, opening a pop-up windows where says "authentication failed", indicates the MAC ADDRESS of the helmet and ask me for the PIN.
  (3) I type in the PIN code "0000" default, but nothing happens!
  the HS815 is not connected,
  the Bluetooth Manager doesn't list any any device.

  It is:
  This Motorola HS815 headset is compatible with the bluetooth Satellite A100-159 card?

  Thanks a million in advance
  Filippo

  The error message indicates that something was wrong during the pairing process.
  This is silly, but important questions.
  Are you sure you have connected your headset and no other in the range? Really, the PIN is "0000" and you tyed in properly (maybe caps lock was on to your keyboard and something else has in fact been registered)?
  Delete all pairing if it exists, and then try again.
