Satellite A105-S4284: cracking audio and HiFi

Hello

I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A105-s4284. When I play the audio files (wma, mp3, wav), the sound sometimes produced a noise of cracking (scraping) and its VERY VERY annoying, people who share this problem know how disturbing this is, especially when you pay 1,100 euros for a processor core duo with 1 GB ram notebook (what you thought it would be perfect for use).

Is it a hardware problem or something wrong with the drivers? This also occurs with the os preinstalled windows xp media center edition, as well as with xp professional and windows vista.

I took it for repair, but the guys just reinstalled dvds and returned it to me, as it was, I guess it was too hard for them to hear the noise.

In any case, I am VERY disappointed and now I want to just fix this problem...
Help, please!

Your 105 satellite was designed for the American market and you must always install the software from the US site!
http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/Su/su_sc_home.jsp

Check if the update of the BIOS and the driver for sound card will help you.
1. bios update then 2. audio driver update

But before you start the update of the BIOS; be sure you use the good BIOS and the proper procedure.
The incorrect BIOS may damage the motherboard!

  • Error e/s on the insertion of a DVD video disc - Satellite A105-S4284

    My mother bought a Satellite A105-S4284 during a stay in the States. DVD - RAM UJ - 841S with her drive is set to 1 in the region for DVD playback, I want to get it on region 2. I told myself I have 4 changes left, but I am unable to change it. He asked a zone 2 DVD to be inserted and I have administrator privileges - the two conditions are met, but it refuses to work. I then tried to see if she could read the disc at all, however try to access it from the browser I get an IO error. I checked the disc with a variety of drives, CD-ROM, CD Audio, the Toshiba installation/config DVD etc. all read fine, but not DVD-video. I deleted the DVD RAM driver, sought of firmware updates (cannot find a suitable) and updates of pilot (impossible to find).

    I can't work on why he dislikes the video DVD (I tried a lot of discs), even tried with the Media Express Player playback. Because it reads all other formats of discs, it seems unlikely to be a hardware problem, so I think it's a problem with the firmware, but like I said I couldn't find one.

    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Kind regards

    BTW happy Christmas

    Hello

    Do you have the drive to region 2 now?
    This might be a reason for the exploration of DVD-related issues.
    It would be very interesting to know if it of possible to explore this DVD on the other computer.
    Additional I think lots of original DVDs is safe and supports some kind of encryption and, therefore, it s not able to open it with Solution Explorer.

    I put t know why you were not able to change the area by car, but perhaps this has something to do with the operating system installed.
    Have you tried to install a new OS from an original CD of Microsoft, and then change the region on the drive?

    I have a laptop N5030 Windows 7. I can only start my system in safe mode with network and I have no audio and Hifi.  Help!

    Hello. Maybe it's a software or a hardware failure, then run the diagnosis of ePSA on hardware. It is normal to have no audio in safe mode.

    I had a similar problem a few months ago due to the failure of one of my modules of RAM.

  • Re: Satellite A105-S2194 a audio driver missing or corrupt

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A105-S2194 that somehow lost its audio driver. He worked week last and then this week his party.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled as the help and support on the computer Center said to do, but to no avail.

    I have also re-uploaded the driver on the Toshiba site and he says always "No. Audio Driver" or pop up this error message "Windows cannot load the driver for this hardware device. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39) ».

    I have no idea why I can't get the sound to work.
    It says downloading, but when I go back it shows an error.

    Anyone with a few useful insite would be much appreciated.

    Thanks in advance :)

    Hello

    I don't have any idea of what windows operating system you have, but it is a series of Toshiba laptops, we and the necessary drivers are located on the Toshiba U.S. page.
    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/home.jsp

    Here you can download the latest version of the driver.

    In addition, I recommend the deletion of the soundcard from the Device Manager and restart the laptop. If the audio driver has previously been installed correctly then the Windows operating system should recognize the sound card again and the sound should work.

    PS: If you are using Win XP then you need to install SP3 * _avant_ * you need to install the sound card driver

  • Satellite A105-S4284 does support Windows Vista?

    A105-S4284 does support windows vista? or the drivers are not yet ready? Is vista capable PC, I know, but several times I tried to install vista RC1 and it hangs up in the middle of the installation:(s'il vous plaît aidez_moi.)

    Thank you

    If it s a laptop capable of vista then I see no reason why the laptop doesn't have to support Windows Vista.
    It of a fact that, this time no Vista drivers are available on the Toshiba page. (I put t found any)
    I guess we will be able to download the drivers in the next few weeks.

    PS: I installed the RC2 release of my camera and it works without any additional driver. Only the wifi card does not work, but I can live with them

    Hello

    Have you tried to update the drivers of USB port?

    You should try this;
    -Disconnect all USB devices the USB ports.
    -Go to the Device Manager and remove all the USB root hub and all USB host controllers.
    -Restart the laptop

    After this procedure, the Windows operating system should recognize and should install the USB ports again. After restarting again you must connect only USB devices and must verify if they will work properly!

    Usually if the drive cannot read media either material works badly or the CD / DVD is not compatible and taken in charge.

    But we hope that the equipment is not damaged.

  • ENERGY SAVING does not work! Satellite A105

    Please read very carefully, as I tried to make it as detailed as possible. I had this problem before, and when I installed the new BIOS driver, it fixed itself. I'm not so lucky this time. Also, please AVOID recommending to use my recovery CD, because I know, it is possible to solve this problem without it, and the restore CD is the easy/practical answer on how to solve this problem.

    OK, so I just installed the new BIOS software, and now my TOSHIBA Power Saver won't work. I use a Satellite A105-S4284 on Windows XP SP2. When I start the computer, I get this message:

    TPSODDCtl.exe - Ordinal not found
    The 21 ordinal not found in dynamic link TPSMainCtl.dll library.
    Ok

    I know that this refers to the power of Eve, but I don't know what to do about this.

    In addition, I searched other forums on this issue. When I open the control panel and switch to Classic view, TOSHIBA Power Saver icon is there. I double click on it, and I get this message:

    Cannot open, as "TOSHIBA Power Saver" is not running.
    In order to run it, please open "Power Options" in the Control Panel, then choose "TOSHIBA Power Saver" in the list box "Power schemes" on Page "power schemes".
    Ok

    I open power options, and toshiba power sleep mode is already selected. I tried to apply another and switching back, but this did not help.

    I tried to reinstall both the power of Eve AND the common modules on the site of TOSHIBA drivers, and which did not help. I tried to uninstall the energy saver all together, and I get this error message:

    Cannot locate the Setup log 'C:\Program Toshiba Saver\uninst.isu. Uninstallation will not continue.

    I opened the saving folder in the location above, and there are two files: TPSTrace (a plain text file) and TPwrSetup. $$$ (Note: the ' $' are not mistakes, that's what he said). The plain text file contains this message:

    A fatal error has occurred. The program will end. Code: 0x45A location: TPSDel.cpp (230)

    Help, please! Thanks in advance for all time!

    Looks like something in your system is really messed up. Because you won´t be advised to recover your machine, so I can't give you any suspicion because that would REALLY be the one and the only option to solve this problem.

    If some software Toshiba uninstall NOT etc then it won´t repair itself, or it can be sorted out by re-installled or force too install apps...
    Maybe you make you a few remarks and then save your files in order to recover your machine?

    Would be the best method. Otherwise: good luck!

  • Satellite A105-S361 without recovery DVDs

    Hi all

    I recently bought a Satellite A105-S361 and now I have discovered that I do not have the recovery DVD and I don't have the possibility to recreate the DVD recovery my HD was formatted once.

    How can I solve this problem?

    Thanks in advance,

    Claudio...

    Hello

    I don't know where you come from, but AFAIK the Satellite A105-S361 was designed and delivered to the United States. It seems that this laptop is an American unit.
    Generally, it is possible to order recovery at the Toshiba service partner media but I don't know about the U.S. market.
    But I think you should ask the AEP from Toshiba in your country for these media. In my opinion, it should be possible to order this CD.

  • Cracked screen and faulty USB ports on Satellite A105-S1014

    On my Satellite A105-S1014 screen is cracked and needs to be replaced. How much cost could replace the screen?

    In addition, my phone and USB ports do not work properly. This problem arise well before that I accidentally cracked the screen. Some times when I turn first of all the computer, USB port and telephone ports work for awhile and then after a period of time ranging from a few minutes to several hours, they badly run simultaneously and the computer says that what is in the USB port does not work and that there is no dial tone in the phone port that I use to access dial-up. At the beginning, I don't have this problem with the Toshiba laptop, but it arises after about three months.

    My warranty has expired. How much it could cost to solve the problem of the phone and USB ports?

    Hey Buddy,
    I can't tell you how much would it cost to fix these two things, but I can tell you that you buy rather a new machine because the display and motherboard are the most expensive parts in your machine. Since your ports USB and your RJ11 (phone port) don't work anymore and this stuff is on the motherboard, I guess you have to swap the motherboard, too.

    I suggest you to sell your machine @ ebay and buy another. It would be too expensive to fix your machine. Believe me, I had a case of simiar and parts cost more then buy a new machine that was more recent and better performance.

    Just my opinion and just a thought for you... :)

  • Satellite A105-S4064 - need drivers XP for LAN, video, Audio

    Hello

    I recently had to do a clean install of my Satellite A105-S4064 and have had problems to get the right drivers for it.

    On the Toshiba site, it lists only 4 drivers for XP for my model, even if that's what it came installed with. The video driver list and sound do not yet work for me.

    I need drivers for the modem, LAN, video, Audio, please.

    Any help would be a great help!

    Thank you

    Ken

    Hello

    On the page of the Toshiba driver we you can find the right driver for XP graphics card.
    At the moment the page provides a display driver nVidia GeForce (v83.02, 19/01/2006)

    I also found a driver of his right. It s a Realtek audio driver.
    If you need a more recent version, then I recommend to visit the site Web of Realtek and download the newest one.

    But note; the XP SP2 operating system needs and before install you the audio driver you must first install the Microsoft Hotfixes; KB888111 and KB835221
    After the installation of these two patches, you can follow with another audio driver installation.

    It also seems that this notebook would support an Intel PRO/100 VE Network Connection - 10/100 Base-TX Lan card
    So, you can visit the Intel page to get the right Win XP driver for this Lan chip.

    Good bye

  • Satellite C660 - 1 DR - impossible to install the audio and video driver

    Any help is great.

    Hey Buddy,

    What operating system you have installed on your C660? Have you installed the latest Service Pack before you begin with the installation of the driver?

    Generally, all the drivers for your laptop can be downloaded here:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    If you have installed all the drivers, no yellow exclamation point shouldn't be in Device Manager. Did you check that?
