• Satellite M45: High grade noise via USB

  I plugged a USB Bluetooth device, when I disconnect it there is a hiss high, which stops when the hard drive is running. The only way to stop it constantly is to keep the key bluetooth connected, which is annoying at the same time. Any suggestions? Thank you, Nick

  Hello Nick

  As far as I know if you want to remove an external component, you must use option called Safely Remove Hardware. Please try to use it and check if there is the same situation.

• Satellite L500 - high-pitched noise when the USB port is in use

  I have a Satellite L500-1ZP, aged from 1 month. When I connect a usb key or other device in my usb port, the laptop generates a high-pitched noise.
  The sound is not strong, strong but enough to irritate me.
  When I disconnect a device, the sound disappears.
  The sound is also there when I disconnect my laptop to the grid form.

  This is a common problem and can it be resolved?

  To be honest I don't think that this is a common problem. Is that what you found more threads with the same description of problem?
  The same happens when you use the available USB ports?
  You can locate where this noise is coming from? Maybe the speakers?

• Satellite A100-920 - Audio driver problem - Win XP Pro

  Hi all

  I'm having a problem with audio driver. I can't seem to find one that works anywhere, I looked at several forums and the Toshiba site for drivers without success. I basically hit a wall, so I hope someone can provide a working solution. :)

  Audio device:
  Feature: 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller
  Manufacturer: Intel

  (Information retrieved using a Ubuntu 9.04 Live CD)

  Although a windows system it labels as "Realtek High Definition Audio Controller"? (I'm not an expert with the drivers, so maybe this is a stupid question...) :)

  The computer is a Toshiba Satellite A100-920 (PSAA9E) Windows XP Professional.

  I spent hours trying to solve this problem, so I hope this is the last mile. :) Thanks to anyone with suggestions.

  Best regards
  Alan

  You use Windows XP Home with SP2 or SP3?

• Satellite A100-803 - Vista recovery problem

  Hello

  I upgraded the RAM and HDD on a Satellite A100-803 and when I restore Windows Vista from the recovery disk process is going very well, but after restarting windows says that "Windows Setup could not set up Windows on this s material.

  I think that the problem is listed here.
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2466753/en-us.

  But the problem is that I can't change the RAID setting in the BIOS, and during the installation of recovery, I'm not able to add the additional drivers needed.
  The new drive is a WD 500 GB driver (WD5000BPVT)

  How can I solve this problem?
  Thanks in advance
  Pau

  Hello

  First I put t think its BIOS problem.
  The laptop doesn't support RAID.

  I think the problem is the size of your new HARD drive. Upgrade of the disk HARD 500 GB and its larger than the original HARD drive equipped in A100.

  The point is that a recovery disk automatically creates the partitions on the HARD disk, but due to the size of the disk HARD the size of the partitions would be different also.
  I think that you won't have the same problems to install Vista or Win 7 using the Microsoft disk

• Satellite A100-495: strange starting problems & freezes

  Hey guys.

  I recently got my Satellite A100-495 back from repair - it had a power problem (no led was flashing and it does not start of course). They told me that the motherboard has been renewed.

  Now, I have the following two issues:

  (1) it freezes suddenly sometimes in windows after 1-2 hours of operation without problems and I have to hold the power button for a few seconds restart

  (2) I press the power on button, LEDS are underway but the screen remains black, sometimes becomes gray, hard drive makes noise, fans going on but it just does not start, do not show anything. After some tests, I have to start but once again crashes after a couple hours of functioning properly.

  Can someone tell me what is the problem here?

  Bad memory (RAM) can cause this.

  If you can get it to start, test the memory with Memtest on a bootable CD. www.memtest.org

  Otherwise, try the combination of the different memory card. If you have 2 sticks of memory, try with one stick, then try the other stick, try different locations.
  Often the memory pins can oxidize and cause problems. To clean the pins, use a pencil eraser/rubber and rub the pins of module memory.
  Be careful when you handle the memory, you can zap easily memory with static electricity. To make sure that you are connected to the earth when the memory handling.

• 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 A100-206 supervisor password problem

  Hello

  We have a Satellite A100-206 at the office.

  A colleague trying to protect the laptop set the user password in the bios.
  I do not exactly know what she does but at startup is asked for a password.

  Then she ask me to remove the password so I typed the password, management of the bios and clear the user password.
  But it is, I also noticed that the supervisor password was already defined but not selectable (gray color).

  In any case, I've saved and restart.
  The problem is that now the OS start without asking for a password, but I can't enter the bios because it asks for a password and is not that of the colleague don't forget to have it fixed.

  Why can't I get more into the bios of th as a user?
  I also find the hwsetup in windows re set the password of the user as shown in the manual, but this software is not present.

  Best regards
  Diego

  Hello

  I put t know which operating system you have, but I think that Akuma is right. If you start HWsetup you can also access the BIOS using this tool and remove or set a supervisor password.

  You can remove the password in HWsetup?

• Satellite A100: I am not able to use the keys FN - common module error

  HY,

  I have a toshiba satellite A100 series and I have a problem:
  I'm not able to use the fn functions (for example fn + f9 to turn off the touchpad or fn + f3 to the eve and so on...) and I got an error concerning "common module.

  A dialog box told me that the common module is closed...
  Someone knows this problem?

  I'm sorry for English...

  Thank you

  Hello

  I put t know why this error message and why the common modules stopped working, but to my knowledge, the common modules are needed to run and use the FN keys for example.

  So here is my advice;
  Go to Toshiba's European diver page, choose the common law modules, download, unzip, and reinstall it again!

  After restarting again the FN keys should work again.

  Best regards and good luck

• Satellite A100-225 - charging battery problem

  Hi people,

  My Satellite A100-225 can't hold the charge when running. If I use processor heavy applications, the battery will drain in about half an hour and recharge only when the cover is closed (standby mode) or the laptop is turned off.

  When the exhausted battery and the laptop turns off, I have to remove the battery, press the on/off switch, replace the battery, then let it charge for a while before I can use it again.

  The laptop will power any if I remove the battery and the runoff of current alternative.

  I tried a spare battery, but exactly the same thing happens.
  I also updated the Bios with the latest version (6).
  Laptop runs Windows XP Home Edition.
  Laptop is out of warranty.

  Anyone have any ideas?

  See you soon
  Steve

  Looks like a hardware problem. I mean, if your battery runs out when the machine is connected to the pit of the wall adapter (this is what I did not understand), so something in the subsystem of your laptop power goes down.

  Have you ever sent the machine to a partner of service authorized or is the machine still under warranty?

• 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!

• Satellite A100-635: is it possible to use the DDR2-667 RAM

  I have a portable satellite a100-635 with 1024 MB of RAM DDR2-533. Is it possible to use the DDR2-667 RAM modules instead of 533 in this model? Thank you.

  P.S. I doubt because all portable satellite I've seen so far have been equipped with 533 modules by default. Still the chipset supports officially the DDR2-667 (Intel 945GM) modules.

  Hello

  I'm not 100% sure, but as the site says that it won't work, I think you can trust them, and it does not work.
  But if you want to try it, please post the result here.

  Good bye
