Satellite A110-137: serial USB 1.1 Cable does not work

My computer is Satellite A110-137 and the operating system is Windows XP Home Edition v 5.1 service pack 2. Language setting is the Finland.

I have a prolific USB driver cable RS232 2.0.0.26 version 1.1.

It does not at all. When I try to connect it to a package Kantronics KAM radio modem using Hyper Terminal there is an error COM3 message: ei voi games. Tarkista porttiasetukset. (COM3: cannot open.) Check the port settings).

The settings that I have are 9600 bps, 8 data bits, zero parity, 1 stop bit, hardware flow conrol. It's the same thing in device driver settings and the settings of the Hyper Terminal. It is 100% sure that the problem is somehow related to Toshiba or Windows XP as the same USB converter RS232 perfectly works and right the first time with for example Fujitsu ErgoPro have Windows 2000 (and it's a machine Pentioum 233, very old stuff indeed).

I can't get any help of Prolific, their home pages seem to be offline now.

Hello

I studied a little on the net and it seems that this converter RS232 USB 1.1 creates a virtual serial port (possibly the com 3)
As far as I know the built-in modem is using the same port.
Possibly there could be compatibility problems.

However, this is not a product of Toshiba and this is why I would recommend contacting support of the prolific.
I've been on the site and it of online.

  • Satellite A215 S4767 Chicony USB 2.0 camera does not work with Skype

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A215-S4767 with Vista Ultimate 32.

    When I open the camera program, it works well.
    I put the camera program is not at initial start-up of laptop.
    I start the laptop, Skype open and figure that the camera does not work and say to check what I've done.

    Yesterday, I had installed the Skype 5.5.0.114 version and the camera has functioned well, I upgraded Skype version 5.5.0.117 and the camera started not to work.

    Hello

    > Yesterday I had installed version Skype 5.5.0.114 and the camera has functioned well, I upgraded Skype version 5.5.0.117 and the camera started not to work.

    This means that it is not software for laptop problem or a webcam, but maybe it s Skype related issue.
    You should check if the webcam has been chosen correctly in Skype video settings.

    If this does not work, uninstall the 5.5.0.117 version of the system, reboot the laptop, clean the registry using CCleaner (freeware tool) and then after reboot again to install the 5.5.0.117 again if not check the 5.5.0.114 a version that worked correctly in the past.

    Hello, could someone help me?

    I upgraded my laptop Satellite A110 to Vista. Media button control does not work after upgrade to vista.

    Help, please...

    Hi guys

    You consider right. You must install the Vista Toshiba value added package.

    You must check your key for laptop specifications and then use the right file and drivers.

  • Satellite 1900-803: Hi-Speed USB 2.0 card does not work

    I have a portable satellite 1900-803. I recently bought and installed a Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Notebook Card, but it does not work. Manual of the card says that after the successful installation, I'd see a second 'USB bus controllers' heading which I did not. I even it was replaced by another one thinking that there could be some problems with the drivers, but it still does not work. whenever I plug in a device such as an mp3 player, a digital camera or a usb storage device, windows locks all of a sudden upward, won't move the cursor, the function ctrl-alt-del does not work and the worst of it, I can't turn off the machine!

    the map shows that it runs on any 32-bit location.

    I have the manual and the Device Manager to see if mine is a 32-bit, but I don't really know. This is probably the reason why it doesn't work? or is there another reason to make it work not? If this is the reason why, is there a way where I can upgrade my laptop's pc card slot to make it work?

    Help, please.

    I posted this question yesterday morning and did not get a single response. is it because it has to do with an older laptop? Please, someone, help...

    Hello

    Have you checked the Bios? I guess that the Bios Toshiba was preinstalled on your laptop. Am I wrong? There should be an option to change the PC Card controller mode.

    Here, you can change the mode of the automatic selection, CCIP compatible controller or card bus/16-bit.
    If the card supports 32-bit so you should use the 16-bit option.

    I think you should play a little with this option and possibly that the card will work.

  • Bluetooth/Hotspot tethering without cable does not work

    Hello world

    We have a weird put in place where Bluetooth does not (entirely).

    iPhone is last 9.3.3

    OSX is 10.11.4

    Setting up Personal Hotspot on the iPhone and then connecting via Wi - Fi laptop does not work. Error message "Unable to connect" standard and suggestion of using Wi - Fi diagnostics (also does not help).

    Go to Bluetooth prefs on OSX and the connection it does not work. Matching does not work, but we CAN see the iPhone. The WiFi scanner captures also the iPhone.

    If connect us the iPhone via the cable and then put in place a personal Hotspot, it does not.

    Surfing on the web, everything works. Disconnect the cable, and it stops again.

    I succeeded in pairing my iPhone to the laptop, so it seems apparent to another iPhone. I'm leaving work via cable uses a direct route via the cable which is a different connection method than live bluetooth signal?

    We have removed the Bluetooth of OSX preferences > no change.

    Reset us the iOS network settings > no change.

    Any ideas?

  • Satellite Pro A120: my Ghost image created new does not work

    fokes, all the ideas that we are stuck and as normal phone support fate with a cracker of a response... "it seams Ghost is too recent." and unsupported. "

    have a master machine installed and the installer under windows xp pro and about 60 bits of software school, smartboard and network settings. preparation time was about 2 days, so don't want to do the other 11 manually...

    I took the image via the network and then sent to a new machine, and bingo, he sits on the bios screen, now enter the detailed checks so I can see what the bios checks the hard drive is fine and its just hanging somewhere on the wick between bios and where the hard drive takes over.

    OK test 2, take the hard drive of the machine master and make a ghost of disk to disk to a new machine, image ends fine, replace the hard drive in the machine, try to start new machine, bingo same problem lies just to the bios.

    After each test, the machine master fine boots.
    have you tried the main hard drive in two new machines, its fine
    have reinstalled xp pro cd on two hard drives, it must be installed fine
    running spinrite all 3 disks that are very well
    Ghost does not all problems with the master drive
    have tried a fixboot and fixmbr chkdsk on the new machines after they have been imaged, still no start

    This is the first time we had a problem with the ghosts of the machines of tosh in 7 years, (copied about 50 machines so far this year, as some of this model) just woundering if they changed something in the batch or the version of the bios?

    Hello

    I can't give you a precise answer why your new created Ghost image does not work, but I found this Toshiba useful knowledge base article

    Norton Ghost 8.0 BACK tool is not put on the road correctly if you try to make an image of your drive or partition.
    http://support.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB5400Z20008R01.htm

    and

    Norton Ghost 8.0 or 8.2 BACK tool is not put up properly on machines with S - ATA if you try to make an image of your drive or partition
    http://support.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB6801JL0006R01.htm

    Maybe your allowed some ghost image parameters that are not supported by satellite Pro A100 or missing some drivers SATA or IDE!

    It seems in any case, there is nothing wrong with the Toshiba laptop. All functions using the Toshiba Recovery CD. Created your new image is not 100% good!

  • Satellite L650-12 q - recovery of Windows 7 does not work

    Hello

    I have Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit) edition in my laptop Toshiba Satellite (L650-12 q) and after a new start the Windows stopped working. I have a recovery disk that does not load (I'm done with the pointer in a blank screen) and the drive to install windows 7 would not work either (same thing). Safe mode no longer works.

    This probably means that the partition has a problem I'm wrong? -J' used Ubuntu Live CD, which confirmed that c:\ cannot be mounted while d:\ can.

    The problem however is double: a) I'm not sure that aspect of my data is accessible or not (I can't check) and b) I can't reinstall Windows, as Windows 7 installation process does not work.

    Any ideas please on what to do next? I want to access the partition, have searched on the internet (even tried with a Windows 98/XP boot disk), but had no chance that the partition is written in a newer way, which is not detected by them...

    Thank you in advance.

    > I have a recovery disk that was not loaded (I'm done with the pointer in a blank screen)...
    Do you use it for the first time?

    In any case, try to start the recovery disk, follow these steps:
    -Launch the laptop model and when you see the Toshiba screen home press F12 repeatedly to enter the boot options
    -When the boot menu appears to place the recovery disc into the optical disc drive
    -in the menu choose the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER
    ODD must start recovery disc playback.

    What happens when you do this?

    You can download drivers Toshiba from here: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    There is however no driver XP for the L300D. But I found a LAN driver for XP wireless that would work.

    Select:
    Laptop
    Satellite Pro
    Satellite Pro L series
    Satellite Pro L300

    Download and install
    -Wireless Lan Driver Realtek Semiconductor Corporation Windows XP 6.1116.1226.2007

    If this does not work, you can have an Atheros Wireless LAN card. If this is the case, look at the other models for an Atheros Wireless LAN Driver XP.

  • Satellite A100-499 - function for the WiFi button does not work

    Hello, I have a Toshiba Satellite A100 - 499 PSAA9E.

    I formatted my laptop and installed XP with SP3. I downloaded and installed the drivers (in the right order) for this OS of the toshiba - Europe.com and everything is going well except Fn + F8. It is assumed that this combination has toggle Wifi & Bluetooth. When I switch side 'off' position and I press the keys, appears a message saying that I should switch to position 'on' but when I switch lateral position 'on' and I press Fn + F8 it does nothing.

    If I want to disable the wi - fi I have to do it with other methods: the function key does not work correctly.

    Any clue?
    Thanks for the advice (and sorry for my English).

    When the WLAN switch is on orange LED is also on?
    You can scan area available networks?
    Have you tried to use the WLAN without using FN + F8?
