• Satellite A110-195 lan crashes

  Hello

  My satellite a110-195 crashes when I send files to another computer on the local network. There is nothing wrowng with another computer on the local network
  because I have also tested it with an a100-906 and works very well.
  I have hard drive formatted and reinstalled windows xp but the problem is still there.

  I use the latest version of the bios. Is a very strange problem.
  LAN works fine with my internet connection and the system crashes only when I transfer large files.
  About 800 MB of files.

  I think it's a software oriented.
  Looking forward to a response.

  Edit: a little more information. Laptop goes down ONLY when I send files and ONLY when I use the battery. I ordered a USB to lan card, to see what is happening. But it's a shame a laptop from a week to have such problems.
  Thank you
  Nick

  Hello

  This will only occur if the laptop is running with the power of the battery?
  HA I think I have an idea and a solution! ;)

  To me, it seems that the computer is on the LAN card feature to save power!

  You should just go to the Device Manager and select the properties of LAN card under network adapters!
  Here, you select the last tab called power management. Please disable the option called allow the computer to turn off this device to save power!

  Additional on the Advanced tab (I think that it s a second tab) you can activate the optimal performance of the option and disable the link down to save energy.

  Hope this helps dude :)

• Satellite A110-275 restarts after a stop on the current

  Hello

  After installing xp sp3 if I stop my laptop while on external power, it seems to stop and power off of the fine - then 5 seconds later, it restarts?

  If I turn off the external power (or pull the power cable on) if the machine is running on its battery - then stop - everything works fine. I have checked the event logs and see no error which would cause a reboot on shutdown. I disabled the reboot on system error switch and I turned off the wake of the bios on the options.

  I also looked in Device Manager and off anything that could wake the machine after his stop (only found the modem). I am at a loss - I don't see why external power would cause the works to restart but battery very well. Finally its possible this safe mode can also not working after installed sp3.

  If anyone has any ideas - I'd appreciate really them. It looks like there may be a newer bios available (I'm on V1.2) but I've seen a few posts cautioned against an updated bios windows at level - once again any info - very very welcome.

  System information:
  Toshiba Satellite - A110-275
  Windows XP pro - sp3

  > After installing xp sp3 so I stop my laptop while on external power, it seems to stop and power off of the fine - then 5 seconds later, it restarts?

  Have you noticed this problem before installing SP3?

  Its strange noises that this occurs only when the laptop is connected to the power adapter

  I searched in the forum for similar issues and in many cases enabled Wake up on LAN would cause a reboot.
  I know, you have this disabled in BIOS, but you should also check the LAN card properties in Device Manager.
  You will find an Advanced tab can disable this option too!

  Satellite A110-275 belongs to the series of PSAB0E.
  There is a new BIOS for PSAB0E series.

  BIOS v2.0 is OS independent. Means that he s created for Win XP and other OS.
  V5.40 BIOS is only for Vista OS.

  If you are using Win XP, then you should take the independent BIOS of the OS!

• Satellite A110-103 - 2 GB RAM - gaming performance optimization - SOLUTION

  Hello

  For those of you who have 2 GB of RAM installed on the laptop and want to play games like f.e.a.r.2 PROJECT ORIGIN, it's performance that I have tested on my Toshiba Satellite A110-103!

  If you want to add 2 GB of RAM or more to your laptop please read [this post and my experience with upgrades RAM | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=153005#153005]! It could help you save money!

  Before you install the 2 GB of RAM, I used to have a paging file 4096 defined in Windows for drive C.
  After that I installed the 2 GB of RAM, I wanted to play f.e.a.r.2 Project Origin on low heat.
  However, the game played horrible with low display rate. So I wanted to know if there is a way to disable virtual memory (swap file) and only use real RAM.

  Most of the discussions about the paging files disabling said it there is no way or point by doing this!
  Well, I decided to give it a try!

  I disabled the paging file to * start-> Control Panel - > system-> advanced-> performance-> settings-> advanced-> virtual memory - > Exchange-> no paging file *. I restarted my laptop and after the reboot in my case I could see the big difference in speed!

  TEST: I opened FEAR2 - Project Origin started playing and my character's movement, where much more receptive and lag-free! : D

  Conclusion: In my case disable virtual memory (swap file) really boosted my gaming experience! And I play on an ATI X200M with 256 MB shared memory card!
  Try this and if you get good results please post them here! I have

  Best regards

  Hi dude

  Thanks for this message
  Usually the pagefile should help you increase the performance of RAM
  USIN the page file, the data that must be stored in RAM would be transferred to the HARD disk and therefore a pieces of RAM would be free

  However, thank you for this return of experience and your comments!

• Update BIOS on Satellite A110-274

  I am using a Satellite A110-274 and running Win 7 32 bit successfully, but I wonder if I should update the Bios.

  * This BIOS *.
  The name of the BIOS: Ver 1.00 PARTTBL.
  SymBios Version: V1.30.
  Date: 20/07/2006.

  I know that Toshiba does not support older laptops running Windows 7, but as a person with little money I can't afford to buy another laptop, so I have to do.
  Please can someone help me. Thank you in advance.

  My advice to you is: do not change anything.
  If you have problems to run Win7 on this old machine, I think that you shouldn't change anything. I think that the BIOS update will bring benefits, so there is no reason to change anything.

• Satellite A110-179 CD/DVD does NOT READ

  I have a Satellite A110-179 and you have a problem with my CD/DVD Multi writer.
  The DVD drive light is constantly orange. It won't read any CD I already updated the BIOS.

  That's happened?

  Post edited by: ADMIN (grammar, removed the top casing)

  Hi Luis

  This can really be a problem with the hardware of the CD/DVD drive
  Maybe the ODD died and only replacement players will help you.

  But as Akuma already said, you must contact the ASP for and check.
  Guys should be able to provide clarification, perhaps there is a little chance for fixing without replacement.

  Good luck

• Battery not be chared on my Satellite A110-195

  Hello

  This is nikhil patel, of the India.

  I have satellite * A110-195 * notebook that's good my cousin to the United Kingdom.
  My problem is now _battery is not in charged_ and my laptop runs only on AC power.

  Please tell me why this is is has happened and what is the solution.
  And if there is demand for new battery where can I get it and at what cost in India.

  I live in _gujarat ahmedabad. _

  Hello

  First of all the people here in the forum can try to post some suggestions that may help you to solve different problems of portable but you shouldn't t wait you will get a good solution to 100%. I think you can understand that without putting hands on the laptop, we can offer only on the reasons why something happens

  To return to your question; in my view, you must first check if the battery is defective and if new battery might help.

  I checked the Toshiba page Options & accessories on the European site of Toshiba and found the batteries compatible with the Satellite A110-195;
  The batteries are;

  Battery (Li-ion, 4000mAh, 6 cells) PA3465U-1BRS
  Battery (Li-ion, 4300mAh, 8 cells) PA3457U-1BRS

• Satellite A110-275: more a low-memory graphics card after BIOS 1.30 update

  Hello

  I am the owner of:
  Satellite A110-275
  Part number: PSAB0E-00T00TEN
  graphics card intel gma 945 up to 128 MB.

  Recently, I updated the bios of 1.20 to 1.30 and after reboot, I lost 64 megabytes of 'graphics card capabilities.
  After bios update, my computer is much lower. Why? How can one get 128 MB of memory on my intel gma 945?

  also s it is possible to manually change a file and configure gma 945 capacities up to 256 MB? I have a lot of ram and I could use it for games, now I can use only 8 to 64 MB.

  Concerning
  Piter

  Hello Pit

  I posted my opinion that I don't think there could be a problem in your second topic.
  As far as I know the laptop came with graphics card Intel shared memory. 8-128 MB of memory could be chosen.

  To my knowledge the Intel driver graphics card automatically controls the value of memory sheared. If need more than MB of graphics card memory so it will be assigned automatically.

  PS: In my opinion it is not possible to select 256 MB because the hardware does not support.

• Player card on the satellite A110-252 issue

  Hi - I'm in a good spot of bother with my satellite A110-252, I bought at the end of the summer 2006. He executed a lot for all this time and I have taken good care of the machine.

  However, today, I fear I might have accidentally destroyed the machine. The laptop has a card reader all-in-one, located on the front, above the hard drive and next door the status lights. Next to the drive are the symbols of the cards SD, XD and Memory Stick from Sony. I assumed the reader would be my 4 GB Sony Memory Stick Duo, but too late, I realized that my memory stick has been among the most recent, smaller, and it is now stuck in the slot.

  Restart the computer, Windows fails to start (I'm typing this from my Linux partition, which I use in case of emergency), and when trying safe mode starts it crashes on 'getio.sys '. The light on the card reader flashes and flashes constantly when Windows tries to start. This suggests that the stick stuck is to interrupt the boot - the system tries to read the map, but because he crashes against the pins it screws to the top of the boot process.

  Is there a way to get around this? I could disable the card somehow, either via the software reader or physically? Any suggestion would be appreciated because I very strongly dependent on the my laptop Windows partition.

  Hello

  Check the BIOS settings and try to change the order of boot to HDD ODD FDD LAN or something like that.

  But why you n t contact the technician of laptop (ASP in your country) and request the removal of this card is not compatible?
  You should definitely do this.

• Satellite A110-293 Windows does not start at the top. Ntoskrnl. No recovery CD

  Help!

  Hello

  I presume that you can order only the latest Toshiba Vista recovery DVD using this from Toshiba Web site.

  If you need a recovery (Win XP) for this older satellite series CD, then you will need to contact the ASP (authorized service provider) in your country.

  However, you can use a Microsoft XP CD to the original address to repair or reinstall the operating system.

  By the way; have you tried to boot the operating system in safe mode by pressing the F8 key?
  Please check this box. Maybe it's possible.

• Satellite A110 battery does not & will not work if the battery is connected

  Hello

  I will try to regain control of the situation quite clearly.

  Product: Toshiba Satellite A110-149

  Works fine on AC adapter / CC (Eve just a summary of the problem but because of Gentoo Linux, this used to work under Windows XP)

  Original battery was dead. Not only there is no charge, but with this battery and the AC adapter absolutely nothing, not a single LED. No need to mention that I couldn't turn on the computer.

  Bought a new battery at Eforcity.com
  -Replace: PA3465U-1BRS | 10.8V | 6600mAh (71Wh)

  With this new battery and the AC adapter plugged in, I have the green power led and lighted orange recharge. But even after 8 hours and the computer off of the battery did not charge.
  If I try to turn on the computer with this new battery in and the AC adapter is plugged in it starts to run, but after awhile it stops automatically, no question weather I start or enter the BIOS.

  BIOS is Phoenix v1.50 and reset the default settings.
  Also, downloaded the last OS independent 1.70 - WIN (bios - 20090121162419.zip), but is there a way to update without Windows?

  I tried to just unplugged and press the power button several times (last test, I continued pressing more than 2 minutes for what counts)

  I have clean the contacts with alcohol.

  Would it be because of a fuse or capacitor I could replace myself or something?

  Any help would be grateful.

  Kind regards
  Charly

  Hello

  I'm not quite sure what happened to the laptop, but first of all you need to know that laptop m should feed and must run properly if the AC adapter is plugged.
  The isn t battery required to power the unit if the power adapter provides power for the laptop.

  So if ONLY the battery would be affected, the unit must always turn sector.

  This is why I think that its a serious hardware issue for example motherboard problem.

• Issue of satellite A110 - 195 Ram upgrade

  Magalie everyone I need to ask a critical question on my Toshiba laptop model name: satellite a110-195, nude model: psaboe.

  1. I'm a Ram with Buss 533 512 MB DDR2, if I changed it to Buss 667 2 GB of Ram it downgrade to 533 buss works well & not cuz disorders & being stable in my laptop or not?

  2 - What is the maximum Ram sizes & bus which can my laptop deals with it?

  Please review quickly because I have problems in Rams upgrades thx

  Post edited by: lover of matrix

  Hello

  Say the user manual on the upgrade of RAM?
  In general this info is always mentioned in the user manuals

  But generally, must be knowing that RAM upgrade depends on the chipset.
  The FSB (front side bus) chipset is important for the speed of the RAM.
  If the FSB supports only 533 Mhz then your RAM modules would go max with speed 533 Mhz and RAM modules support a faster speed; That is to say to 667 Mhz.

  If someone could tell me that I would be very happy.

  Hello

  I think the keyboard could be compatible, but I doubt the battery designed for Sat A110 would be compatible with the model A100.

  As far as I know the Satellite A100 supports the 9 cell, 6000mAh
  PA3478U-1BRS or 12 PA3400U-1BRS battery and the A110 supports PA3457U-1BRS Battery Pack Li-ion (4300mAh, 8 cells)
