Satellite A100 PSAA5A Windows does not recognize ethernet controller

Hello

I'm having a problem with a PSAA5A-01H00T A100 running Win XP sp2.
Windows does not recognize an ethernet controller, so the wireless NETWORK card does not work, even if the wired connection is.
I tried to install the latest WLAN drivers on the support site (two of them), does not. Windows insists that the correct drivers are not installed.

I suspect a hardware problem and I have the user on an external wireless NETWORK card, but I would appreciate any idea that you guys can provide.

Thank you.

Hi mate

What Ethernet controller is not recognized? WLan or LAN?
You have a few unknown devices in Device Manager?
If so, then a critical driver is missing, and so the controller is not recognized correctly.

You n t know what LAN or Wlan chip you have and what driver is needed?
Check this box:

  • Satellite L635-PSK04E - Windows does not recognize the HARD drive

    Hello

    Recently, my hard drive for my Toshiba Satellite L635 PSK04E was broken and I bought a Western Digital WD500LPVX to replace.

    I am trying to install Windows 7 on the laptop, but on installing Windows page size of the disc seems 0Go and there is a Windows message "the selected partition requires at least 8462 Mb of free space. Windows cannot be installed to this disk. Ensure that the control of the disk is activated in the BIOS menu.

    In the BIOS, the drive is detected as with the label (S2). (See attachment). Is this normal?

    I bought this as a SATA drive and thought that it would be compatible with my laptop (his recent hard drive is a SATA too).

    Now I'm afraid, that I bought a bad disc type that is not compatible with my laptop.
    But are not all compatible SATA drives? What is a drive problem?
    I couldn't find any Toshiba SATA drivers on their web page of drivers.

    Can you please help me what to do?

    To be honest HDD Exchange should not be a big problem. When you buy a 2.5 HDD with SATA connector should be recognized automatically and Windows installation should not be a problem. In general you can not do something wrong. Your dealer can help you with this also.

    Before continuing a matter of discussion for you: do you use the Microsoft installation disc or original recovery disk?

    One last thing: now when you need new drive hard best option should be upgraded with SSD. Disc SSD is much faster and using this disk, you can have the much faster machine with very short reaction time. If possible, send your new drive HARD back and buy SSDS.

    After a crash of the sudden family Vista system premium on a Toshiba Satellite A205 the system does not recognize the DVD CD - RW drive. Neither in Explorer, Device Manager, nor BIOS.

    Laptop is only a few months old.
    Have you tried the Toshiba check system - it ignores DVD disk check.
    Tried Windows Update - does not help.
    Tried registry fix - does not help.

    Cannot use the CD to reinstall all drivers - because it is not recognized.
    The DVD drive LED is on. If the disk looks ok physically.

    Does anyone have an idea what to do?

    Very strange what s
    Try this:

    Access the BIOS and set the default settings and save the changes.
    If it doesn't help then I put t see any other possibilities for contact ASP in your country for a CD/DVD drive control and possibly a replacement

    You said that the notebook is only several months old so I assume that the warranty is still valid and that's why everything has to be done for free

  • Why am I suddenly "USB not recognized, one of the devices USB has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize"

    Hi all. If anyone out there in Cyber Land can solve this problem for me so I've personally you will issue an eight-pack of ice-cold beer (or a bottle of wine for the ladies lol)...

    I'll try not to waffle too guys, so here's...

    Right my PC running Windows XP. I also have itunes installed on my PC (I have an iphone 4). Upward until yesterday my iphone and itunes were working well, (once I plugged my iphone in the itunes USB port recognised that my iphone was plugged and synchronization was fine etc.).

    But now when I plug my iphone to PC to sync with itunes, I get a pop up box on the lower right part of the screen that reads... "USB not recognized one of the USB devices has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize."

    After visiting about 5 different sites now "Ways to solve this problem", believe it or not, I still have the problem bloody! :(

    A site proposed shutdown PC and unplug it from the power supply, then plug it back start-up and back... this as did not work!
    The other they say that I should go to Device Manager, uninstall all the USBs then restart... it did not work either.
    Tried a system restore
    Tried to reinstall itunes

    When I check the names USB in Device Manager, there is one who reads unknown device. I am literally pulling what's left of my hair now. I tried to solve this problem for almost 2 days now and still no joy. That's why no matter what input you guys would be very appreciated. I'm no PC Wizard, so please, don't think you're patronizing me if you break down things step by step for me.

    Thank you comrades, cordially, Freddy frustrated. :)

    Another said I should go to Device Manager, uninstall all the USBs and restart.

    Usually, this works... but can be very dangerous, unless you have a PS/2 keyboard.

    I also assume that you have tried all other USB ports on the computer. tried a verified USB device (for example, a flash drive) in the USB usually when you plug in your iPhone. and I tried your iPhone in another computer (I know it's rare for an error message Windows really means what he says, but sometimes the material lacks).

    Is the charge of the iPhone when it is connected to the USB port (I don't think)?  This happened to me recently, but a reboot fixed it.  I guess that that happened to you.

    I guess that you don't see the error messages in Device Manager or you must declare them.

    You can uninstall all USB devices that do not exist as follows:

    • Open a command prompt window (start > run > cmd > OK)
    • Enter the following command and press enter

    Set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices = 1

    • Start the Device Manager by typing the following in the same command prompt window

    devmgmt.msc

    • In Device Manager, click the view menu and select "Show hidden devices".
    • You should see a category just after "Non-Plug and Play drivers" named "other devices."  Chances are that there will be a big exclamation yellow mark beside it.  When you expand the "other devices" you should see several non identified "USB devices."  Uninstall all this.
    • Reboot (with the iPhone NOT connected).
  • Windows does not recognize my card or my camera drive

    Windows does not recognize my sd card reader or my camera.   I have no problem with all the other devices such as printer, Mp3 player (all) external drives.

    Thank you

    Laurie.

    Hi Laurie,

    ·         Have you tried to connect the card reader on different USB ports on your computer?

    We will check if the following is useful.

    Method 1: Try to connect the flash drive to different USB ports on the computer and check if it helps.

    Method 2:

    Step 1: Try to reinstall the USB controllers and check if it helps.

    a. click the Start button and then right click on my computer. Click on properties.

    b. click on the Hardware tab, and then click Device Manager. Expand the Bus USB controllers section by clicking on the sign «+»

    c. each of the devices under the USB controller section uninstall by right-clicking on each one, then click on uninstall.

    d. close Device Manager, and then restart your computer. Windows XP re - automatically installs the USB controllers in your computer, so you don't have to do anything further. Your computer is now running properly USB devices.

    Step 2: Log on to the manufacturer's Web site and update the latest chipset drivers and other updates to the device driver.

    You don't say what to do with phone/mp3 player. If its something other than an iPhone, you'll probably need to install the drivers/software supplied with your phone.
