Satellite A100 (PSAA9): Win7 + setting screen brightness problem

Hello

I installed Windows 7 64 bit on my toshiba A100 (psaa9) machine and I cannot change the screen brightness more.

It's always a maximum brightness. FN key doesn't work, and neigther Control Panel I can change the nvidia manually through the brightness. NVIDIA driver is 7.15.11.7967, which is installed automatically with windows.

In a similar http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=182780 wire
I have read suggestions on value-added package to install, but there is no package like that for my model.

How can I solve my problem?
Thank you

Hello

You must install VAP and Support of Flash Card Utility for the FN keys works!
Installation of VFR will not help you if you should not install Flash memory card Support utility.

As far as I know, these two tools are not phone specific, so you can choose the VAP and the published Flash card for example utility for Satellite L500!

I did it on my laptop and it worked fine!

  • 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.

  • Satellite A100 PSAA9A - how to reset fingerprints

    This is a "Satellite A100 PSAA9A-1L400F" and will not get beyond the "scan finger print" newspaper on the screen.
    The finger print scan is always feel like I scan my finger or ask me to enter the password.

    Someone please tell me can I reset, to bypass or disable this function? otherwise, I can't use the phone more.

    Thank you very much
    Mason

    Hello

    As you said; the fingerprint application for fingerprint or password.
    Generally if you have configured the footprint then you need to enter the password in case something would be wrong with the fingerprint reader.

    If you cannot use the fingerprint and don t know the password that you put everything in the fingerprints configuration then you can't do anything only the ASP can delete and remove the security.

    Therefore, you will need to contact a local technician to ASP and having to ask for help.

    Good bye

  • Issue of the upgrade to Vista - Satellite A100 (PSAA9)

    Hello.
    Well, I think to upgrade to windows vista from my laptop (Toshiba Satellite A100 (PSAA9)). I was researching (little) on the drivers and hardware compatibility with vista, and it seems that if I update now, I can't find major problems. Is this true?
    I ask because when I was looking for drivers for vista, I found many (and some of those that exist, I can't download them!) But even without a driver, vista will recognize and install drivers 'default' for the material of my laptop? Can someone answer this with some?
    My major concern is connectivity: lan and wireless! I'll be able to install the hardware drivers to operate these two things?

    Thank you very much to all those who somehow tries to help with these issues!
    Good bye.

    Hello

    I upgraded my and installed all the drivers from the card reader SD me just used for XP drivers and they worked very well. There are a lot of vista drivers now available for this model, although I am having trouble with the value added package to allow me to use the function keys and access keys.

    Apart from that, I had no other problems!

    Good luck... Let me know if value-added package that works for you, seems to be working for some but not for others.

    See you soon

  • Satellite A100 (PSAA9E) - where can I find new display drivers?

    Hello world
    I'm desperately looking for display drivers for my ATI Mobility Radeon X 1400 (Satellite A100 PSAA9E)

    Those who are on the Toshiba site was updated in 2007. And they are totally useless on most 3D applications!
    No idea where I could find these?

    Thanks in advance
    Nephi

    Hello!

    Normally you can find new drivers to display on the Toshiba site like you said, but I think that in this case, you can't do anything.

    I checked the site Web of ATI/AMD, and I can find more recent drivers for the Mobility Radeon X 1400.
    But it s on your own risk to use these drivers because they don t have a protection against overheating. The graphics card may be damaged.

    Either way, why you want to update the driver? You have some problems with the laptop (in games)?
    Sometimes it s useful to search for a patch or an update for the game and the OS.

  • How to create a new image complete for Satellite A100 PSAA9E?

    My Satellite A100 PSAA9E is so amazing slow, in my view, that the only option is to uninstall everything. I mean how do I restore my laptop to its original condition inlc. last units of driver.

    Best regards
    Stef

    Hello

    Before performing a new installation, you can clean your system using a software like TuneUp utilities. This is shareware, but you can use it for free for a month. It cleans up the registry, removes matched files, and...
    If you want to restore their original state, use recovery discs or hard drive recovery image (by pressing F8 at startup). If you burn and missing hard drive recovery image, you can order from Toshiba for money or get a copy of windows for installation (all drivers you will find on the page of the Toshiba driver)

  • Re: How to create a partition for instant recovery on Satellite A100 PSAA9E

    .. .This can be a difficult issue but I wil give it a shot...

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A100 PSAA9E and a defined recovery disk.
    In the recovery for the operating system (win xp MCE) disk there are two iso: PEbase.iso and the HDbase.iso.
    After some snooping in the Northeast, I discovered what an enivorment of preinstallation and installation (sysprep) prepared.

    Now I wonder if it can be so simple place the image .tpa from the recovery disk in partition and install it whit a pe that works directly from this partition.

    The only real obstacle is that there is some .inf and .sif PES statically to the installation partition, which can be useful to know what has changed from the original version of xp MCE.

    I know that the question is not easy but I hope that in the expertise of the admins

    Hello

    > Now I m wondering if it can be so simple place the image .tpa of recovery in a disk partition and install it whit a pe that works directly from this partition.

    I doubt that it will work to be honest, I've never tested so I can't say exactly if it will work or not but in my opinion it is not possible

    New laptop model are equipped in HARD drive recovery option, but this recovery works completely different. There is an additional menu that allows to start the HDD recovery procedure.

    Your laptop supports the recovery disk and that disk must be used to retrieve the laptop.

    By the way; I have a Norton Ghost utility. I create my own image using this tool and placed it on the second partition. If something goes wrong with my OS I can restore the entire system using the shadow and the filename of the image to the other partition.

  • Satellite A100 PSAA9A - can read DVD BUT not CD with Windows XP

    I use a satellite A100 PSAA9A computer laptop and I started having trouble with the CD/DVD drive. It was working fine until yesterday when he decided not read no matter what CD I get the message asking me to insert a disc, when there is a CD in the drive. It still reads DVD good.
    I don't know if he has anything to do with the download of the updates of Windows XP because the troubl seems to start after I did.
    Is there somewhere in the creation for the player who controls this? Also when I run the troubleshooting test it always ignores the test of this drive.
    I'd appreciate any help.
    See you soon

    Optical drives, DVDS, has some different faces to work with CD and DVD, but objective and optics are the same. He had arrived, when in one two heads become a dust or something else. I thing that you must visit the Service and your disk cleanup. But do not use a cleaning disc!
    PS. Windows updates, as and OS, are not issues.
    Make sure it's easy - attempt to start bootCD (not BootDVD) with anyone by pressing F12 at startup. If the running machine - it's Windows, if not - DVD player.

    Nice day

    I upgraded my Satellite A100-232 yesterday to Windows 7 32 bit. The installation went according to plan and installed everything perfectly. My problem I encounter is that the screen only covers 75% of the screen. The resolution is 800 x 600 and I changed it to 1024 x 768. Does the screen a little bigger, but still no connection in the entire screen.

    Can someone please help with this problem?

    Thanks in advance

  • Satellite U840-10V - screen brightness problem

    Hello
    I own a U840-10V laptop and I have a little problem with my screen brightness from the first day I got it.
    The fn keys work correctly. When I press the button Fn + F2 or F3 I see small panel brightness adjustment, but values 1,2,3,5,6 and 7 (except 4) seem to have the same level of brightness (the 4th is darker).

    (I had problems with my backlit keyboard as well, but when I reset the defaults in the bios it worked perfect...)

    so is that what someone knows how can I fix?

    I reinstalled the PVAT to a newer version which was suitable for my laptop and windows7 - 64 bit, on the toshiba support site, but I haven't worked out.

    so if anyone can help me I would love...

    Thank you...

    > I have a little problem with my screen brightness from the first day I got it.
    Which is really strange.
    It works correctly when you change the brightness level in the plan directly to settings?
