• Satellite A100-147: problem of Bluetooth with BT dongle for mobile devices

  I noticed the code BW on the underside of my lappy is slightly different, but the a, just do not know if it s compatible with its location in the code.

  Code ends with 15WBT/DS2/LM/W... This seems ok or am I Bluetooth less!

  Whatever it is, the strange thing is I ve it works ok in the past by a BT toggle was having taken in the usb port, no probs in the past using this with my cell phone, but on the purchase of a new (old we had stood on) one mini disc 'pilot', it came with comes up with "E:\ is not accessible" and my disc drive is ok! weird but my 1st rocking didn't come with a disk and the other the box "found the new device" came it was straight forward.

• Satellite A100-014 can't module of RAM PC2-4200 or PC2-4300

  Hello guys and girls,

  I have two modules of RAM memory installed on my toshiba a100-014. They are the two PC2-4200. However, CPU - Z which is a small software that helps out to discover what are the specifications of the hardware on your computer, says I have two PC2-4300. Isn't it funny?

  Why you think that CPU - Z does not recognize the RAM modules I have installed? Moreover, the machine works perfectly!

  Hello

  This software is not for me. I use Everest professional. It s also a hardware diagnostic application.
  But you the modules of RAM. Satellite A100-014 has been delivered with a module of 1 GB DDR2-533 (PA3411U-2M1G) and it s definitely a PC2-4300

• Satellite P300D - 12L - problem of microphone with Yahoo messenger and Skype

  Hi again!

  I use Windows Vista 64 SP2 and I have a problem with the microphone, if I use Yahoo messenger, Skype.
  If I want someone to talk to, no one can hear me, or I don't hear from him. There is no difference whether I use Internet or wireless cable. I get the message "wifi weak signal" or something.
  I have to mention the fact that, among all attempts made so far once worked, but just once. Im going to crazy. Can someone help me please?

  Thanks in advance

  Microphone internal generally on Toshiba laptops work correctly with different messengers, especially with Skype.
  I checked on several laptops and did not notice a single problem.

  So I guess there must be a problem with the audio settings.
  Did you install own OS or the Toshiba Recovery for 64-bit image?
  Audio driver is installed correctly?
  Have you tested with headphones?

• 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.
  See you soon

• Is Satellite A100-033 supports internal Microphone

  Hi all

  I recently bought a Satellite A100-033 (pre-installed with Windows Vista Home Basic Edition).

  The manual indicates the location of an internal microphone and there is a small slot on this place. However, attempts to use suggest that it does not work. External microphone works very well.

  Some A100 models do not appear to have an internal microphone (after a search through messages here). Can someone tell me if the A100-033 don't? Thank you.

  Kind regards

  Hello

  As already mentioned the series of laptops comes with different hardware specifications, and not every laptop supports the same features.
  Laptop Satellite A100-033 does not support the internal mic.
  It s is simply not available and you need to use externally.

  Have a nice day ;)

• Satellite A100-216: can I move Windows.old for drive external HARD

  Hello

  I got my satellite A100-216 almost 12 months, (and I'm pleassed with it, incidentally), and bought with XP, but she has the option (taken) to get the upgrade to Vista Home Premium.

  I have finally plucked courage to Vista and have a question.

  In the book, it says that the hard drive will be completely erased, and all must be safeguarded. OK - did this.
  It lights up during loading to say that only a full upgrade is possible and that the old windows will be stored in a folder called "Windows.old" even if the operating system will be unusable.
  There seemed no option but to agree with what is happening and lo and here is the record + Windows.old + is here, and it's * Gb * 6 in size!

  After saving everything, can I really keep this large amount of things on my HARD drive. I can move it on my external hard drive?

  The capacity of the HARD drive, (nominally 100 GB) but showing 93Gb shows 24,6 now used by Vista without other programs or drivers installed.

  If I remove this 6 GB, I'll have a more reasonable 75 GB to play with.

  The other option would have been to start on an OEM XP disk, opt for delete and re-create a primary partition and load Vista from there after the format. Would it be: r: work and B: use less space.

  If the 6 GB file is all that it would save, I'll just save it on my external HARD drive.

  Thanks :)

  Hi Dave,.

  The Windows.old folder is a backup of your files/folders/settings of your XP system etc.

  It is automatically created during the process of update for Vista and is designed as a quick way to return to the earlier version of the operating system if you need to do. \obviously its value will decrease over time, once you start using Vista, because different files will become obsolete with the use.

  The normal procedure is to remove these backup files "shadow", once you are happy that Vista is not working properly and there is an option to do it for you in the utiliy Vista disk cleanup.

• Satellite A100 683: can I upgrade the internal card?

  Hello

  can someone tell me if it is possible to replace the original map (3945ABG) of the Satellite A100 683 by a new, n support card (4965AGN)?

  I would say that it should be possible since both are mini pci cards and I use Windows Vista (which is a system for the 4965AGN requirement), but it would be nice to have a confirmation before buying this card.

  Thanks in advance.

  Wouter

  Hello

  What card do you mean exactly?
  Do you mean the LAN or WLan?

  I ask because I m not 100% sure what car say you, but to my knowledge only the WLan card is removable!
  As you say it s card miniPCI and especially two wires connect the card with the motherboard
  Both Brown and white cables connect the WLan antenna.

  However, theoretically, it should be possible to use another wireless network card but I see really no reason that these updates.
  If you have a Vista compatible driver for your card, then everything should work great.

  Good bye

• Satellite A100-756: where the microphone?

  Hello.
  I just bought this computer (Satellite A100-756) 2 days ago, and in the manual it says he built into the microphone, but I can't find it.
  I was trying to voice chat on MSN messenger, but the other person couldn't hear a thing.
  I have this light manually? If the answer is "Yes", if you please tell me how to do it.

  Thanks for your help.

  Hello

  I checked the features of this unit, and according to some descriptions internal microphone is NOT available. There is a mic jack. Here, you can connect the external microphone.

  It is possible that some units of this series support and are delivered with the internal mic, but not the Satellite A100-756's.

  For most operating instructions describes all the features on the series of the laptop. But not all units support all features.

• Satellite A100 - ODD can't read Win7 installation CD

  I have a pro satellite and the satellite a100. I bought a disc of microsoft to replace XP with windows 7 on the a100.

  The a100 dvd player will not recognize the drive of w7 but he reads audio and video discs very well.

  The satellite pro recognizes the drive of w7 so I think there may be a problem with the dvd-a100 player or its parameters. Can anyone help please?

  Hello

  There is nothing wrong with the settings because there is no special parameters to read a disc.
  If the optical drive does not read the disc, then the disc or the CD/DVD drive isn't OK.

  As the disc works in relation to another optical disc drive, I suppose that the s drive laser lens can not handle support for Windows 7.

  According to my experience of the issues may appear due to the dirty laser lens.
  I recommend you to clean the laser lens using cotton tip and liquid alcohol.

  In many cases, this work around simply helped to get the drive recognized again.

• Satellite A100-233: can I use the WiFi for the Peer to Peer network?

  Hello

  Hello

  I don't know if I understand your question, but you want to connect two laptops via the WLan. Am I wrong?
  Well, this type of network connection is called Ad hoc.

  Choose Start-> settings-> network connections, and then click the local network connection you want to share. On the left side of the screen under the management of the network, click on "change settings of this connection. Under the Advanced tab, under Internet connection sharing, check the box "allow other users of the network to connect through this computer's Internet connection".
  There is also a check box to allow other users to enable or disable the Internet connection, if you are so inclined. If your network doesn? t need to access to the Internet, you can skip this paragraph.

  The host system must also be configured with an Ad Hoc network connection and a Set Service identify (SSID). Right-click on the wireless icon in the system tray and choose "view wireless networks". Do NOT yet connect to any wireless network that could appear in the box. Click the Advanced button. This will bring up the Properties window of wireless with the wireless networks tab at the front. Click the Advanced Options button at the bottom right of this tab, select the option "networks from computer to computer (ad hoc) only". Make sure that the box "Auto connects to the non preferred networks" is NOT checked. Click the close (once) button to return to the wireless network tab.
  Under preferred network, click Add. You now need a SSID for this machine, which is actually the name it will use to announce themselves to the other members of the ad hoc wireless network.
