  Hi there everyone,

  I bought the Satellite A200-13O and I found in the forum Jayjay says:

  Bq. "the laptop can be upgraded up to 4 GB (2 x 2 GB). But the Windows operating system will not recognize the full 4 GB. He acknowledged only 3 GB due to the limitation of the 32 bit OS': 0

  Q1 - is saving 1 GB of RAM cause any problem, when is not used?

  Q2 - can spare 1 GB waiting in my book up is 32-bit upgrade to 64-bit?

  Q3-How can I upgrade CPU 32-bit to 64-bit?

  And just need to confirm a report of R2D2 on notice the guy with A200 - 14 d that have 'problem with RAM', which is similar to my confusion-

  Bq. "... The laptop was equipped 667 Mhz modules, but the FSB supports 533 Mhz max. That's why the modules run max with the speed of 533 Mhz (dual channel)... »

  Q4 - can I install 2 x 2 GB DDR2 667 MHz PC2 - 5300 SO - DIMM despite FSB run just 533 MHz?

  T1 NO.
  Q2 Yes

• Protective Keybord for Satellite A200-13o

  Hello world
  I'm Dimitris in Athens, Greece, and this is the first time that I use this Forum.
  I bought a Satellite A200-13o and I'm looking for a keyboard protector to avoid damage caused by spills possible drink etc.
  I refer to these silicone protectors which fit exactly on each specific keyboard and are washable.
  I looked on the internet and there is a certain protectors of this kind for Toshiba laptops, but I couldn't find one for the A200-13o.

  The Canada Toshiba offers protection for the A200 series but model (following the designation of A200) numbers are different in North America and I don't know the correlation of the European models with the those North America.
  You can check the protector of the keyboard said to
  Link: [http://www.toshiba.ca/web/product.grp?lg=en§ion=1&group=2&product=7571&p art = 7090 #spectop]

  Any ideas on where I can find such a product, or if the 'Canadian' is good for my laptop?

  Thank you very much for your time

  Hello

  There is not much difference between the Canadian and European models.
  I suppose that the serial number and some internal devices. But the proportions of the keyboard must be the same!

  So in my opinion, you can feel free to use the silicone protector designed for a Canadian A200 series.

• Satellite A200-13O (PSAE0E) image seems a bit distorted

  * Good day! *

  I [Toshiba Satellite A200-13O | 27514 http://ru.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=RU&PRODUCT_ID=1 & DISC_MODEL = 1]
  * Reference: PSAE0E-00Y019RU *.

  After some time of use I'm dealing with a large number of problems with the motherboard.
  Now, it's been fixed 2 or 3 times and something bad again.

  During the start-up and nothing loading appear on-screen until load and displays the Windows desktop.
  Photo looks a bit distorted (especially fonts and icons, its flattened) and the whole picture is very distorted.
  Have you tried reinstalling the drivers for the chipset and display drivers - nothing happened.
  It seems to me that something happened with the graphics card (Intel® GMA 950).

  So, I * 2 questions: *
  1 is anyone facing the same problems? How to solve it?
  2 maybe someone know the * motherboard number * of the exact model laptop to replace.

  * I appreciate any assistance. Thank you in advance to help.*
  P.S.: OS - Windows XP Pro SP2

  Have you noticed the same thing on the external monitor?
  If Yes, then a graphics chip can be affected in such a case, the whole motherboard has to be replaced because the GPU seems to be part of the motherboard.

  > 2. Maybe someone knows the reference number of the exact model of laptop motherboard to replace.
  In my opinion, the replacement of the motherboard is very costly affair usually, you have to spend 200-350 for a new or second hand and in my opinion motherboard it s too

  If this would be my computer, I sell this unit (ebay, etc) and offered to buy a new unit under warranty
  By the way: new motherboard can be ordered from local Toshiba ASP.

• Satellite A200-13O: 320 HDD will work?

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A200-13O and I wonder such propulsion will work with it:
  Seagate Momentus 7200.3 320 (7200 16 MB, Serial ATA/300, G-Force)
  If not, what are the spec max to a hard drive for my laptop model?

  Hello

  I think that he should t be a problem using this HARD drive in your laptop A200.
  The A200 has been equipped with SATA HDD too.

  But as far as I know it's a SATA (SATA/150) HARD drive. You HDD seems to be a SATA II HDD (SATA/300), but the controller is compatible to the bottom and must be able to handle this HARD drive.

• Satellite A200 - Intel Pro Wireless 3945 fall

  Hello
  I have a problem with my laptop Satellite A200 (with Vista Home Premium 32 bit) where the Intel Pro Wireless connection keeps itself turning off after several minutes or several hours of use.

  In network connections, the wireless connection is shown as people with reduced mobility. When I try to enable it, it will say something like "Enable already ongoing attempt". And he's never coming back. However, wireless orange light is always on the cell phone all the time. The only way to reactivate the wireless connection, is to restart the system.

  I know this is a very common problem, I see the same problem among other threads on this forum.

  After a short search on Google, and I see that many other people have the same problem too, particularly with Dell laptops. Forum sites there 2 in particular, that have the most information on this topic, I found:

  http://www.vistaforums.com/Forum/Topic4198-45-1.aspx
  http://thevistaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=9834

  These are the things that I tried to resolve this problem:
  (I got all the drivers from the site http://www.toshiba.co.nz, that I got this laptop from NZ and the specific laptop model number is PSAFCA A200)

  -Updated the BIOS with the latest version.
  In fact, I think that updated the BIOS could be the cause of this problem wireless, or in part. Because a few months back, the laptop kept cutting itself no reason apparent, perhaps once or twice a week. So I've updated the BIOS, which actually fixed the random stops, but since then, I've known this wireless problem. Coincidence maybe.

  -Upgrade to the latest driver for the wireless network.
  I tried a various number of drivers. Later off the coast of http://www.toshiba.co.nz, http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/, http://www.intel.com. None of them have worked.
  For the moment, I use the older driver comes preinstalled with Vista.
  Intel Pro wireless 3945ABG (Microsoft) was sometimes since 2006. And surprisingly, this one works best. Drop-outs are not as frequent as more recent drivers, but the problem still happens.
  With this new drivers (dated from 2007), I find that it turns off several times a day. Once or twice an hour.
  With the former, once every two hours.
  That's what I feel, it is probably coincidence.

  -Update of Windows Vista with service pack 1.

  -Updated the firmware on my router. It is a DLink G604T. However, I doubt that it is one router problem, my other laptop running fine without any abandonment wireless.

  -Power WLAN disabled economic option.
  Under power settings, select the setting of maximum performance.

  -Set lowest roaming aggressiveness, even tried with highest.

  -On the "Power Management" tab in the properties for Intel Pro Wireless 3945ABG Network connection, tried to activate and deactivate the option "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".

  -Done a full virus/spyware scan.

  -Uninstalled the software Toshiba Wireless Zero Configuration.

  I think I've tried just about everything that I can, so I'm here pretty much as a last resort.
  I hope someone can help me solve this problem.
  It was so annoying since many months now! It's not fun to have to restart the laptop all the time.

  Thank you.

  I see that you have tired most of the things that I would say too
  You said that WLan works better using the old driver Wlan MS if it s really a WLan driver problem

  But what said
  I searched a bit in the MS knowledge base and found this article:
  + Several problems occur on a Windows Vista-based computer when you work in a wireless network environment.
  http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB; EN-US; 932063

  Check it out.

  But a friend of mine had a similar problem of Wlan and nothing helped, he did a update BIOS, set the Wlan driver, etc.. nothing!

  Finlay, he changed WiFi channels.
  He chose the other channel on the router and wireless network and since then the Wlan card works well...

  Maybe it s worth a try!

• Satellite A200 - loses the battery, switch off the power

  I have a relatively old Satellite A200, yet almost all inside is new except the battery. The battery has a very short life, but that's because its old. Recently the computer started to suddenly lose the battery, so the charge light stays on, the battery light turns off and the battery icon said "plugged in, not charging." However, the computer still work on battery power. If I see it at the time, then by removing and replacing the charger repeatedly, I can start it load again, but if I am not it switches off without warning. Since the battery life is now less than a minute which often.

  I don't think that the problem is with the charger because it always shows the charger is plugged in, and when the computer is off the battery light is always on when it is plugged. I had a problem with the power connector, but if the motherboard was recently replaced so I don't think that's it either.

  If someone could help it would save me a lot of frustration, thank you.

  Hello

  At first, I must say that you should not be frustrated. Problems with consumer products are normal, and each of us has problems with laptops, televisions or other electronic product.

  Let's see what you can do about it.
  Your description is OK, but what I want to know is follow:
  When you remove the battery can work on your laptop with no problems (start work, cut)?

  I also think that the battery is too old and I presume it's troublemaker in the history. It is not easy to explain what behavior flashing if you have a defective hardware or old coin inside.

  Maybe, you need to buy the replacement of the battery and check the features for laptop and the battery, just to see if everything will be OK again. If you will be faced with the same problem again then we can discuss what may be the problem.
  In my opinion only a reason for this could be electronic power supply.

• Satellite L40-18 X - wireless switch does not work

  Hello

  I installed Windows 7 on Satellite L40 - 18 x, PSL48E, the installation seems correct. After installation I noticed that the wireless switch on/off (power) switch does not. The wireless network is working except the functionality of switch.

  It worked on Windows Vista. I installed all the up-to-date drivers for the network card wireless, including atheros, configfree, chipset drivers, but no effect.

  Please can someone tell me the possibole solution?

  Hello

  I agree with resident.
  The Wlan switch on the side of the laptop has all the drivers and it works independently of the installed software!

  The FN + F8 key combination that allows the WLan should work on if install you value added package.

  You should also check if the WLan card is set on IT in Device Manager-> properties-> Advanced tab WLan card.

• Satellite A200 - 13O - lose 3mm of the monitor

  Hello.

  I have an A200-13O and lately I saw something weird. There is a part of the lcd screen that appears to be unusable, is not only on Windows, but even when starting (when the toshiba logo appears).

  I'm referring to a black vertical space about 3 mm of width, which occupies the left side of the screen (from top to bottom). He is not breaking up the image into two parts or something similar, or the view seems truncated. It's just a gap of 3mm between the left edge of the screen and the edge which the visible part begins. I hope my description can help.

  Is this a harware failure? Could it be due to use?

  Thanks in advance for your answer.

  PS1. I'm using the latest drivers intel GMA 945.
  PS2. It is not a problem of window function.

  Hello

  In my opinion it's nothing serious and I don't think that this could be a problem!
  On my laptop the 2mm (maybe 3mm) black box appears around the screen.

  Anyway, please go to the Intel GMA Mobile driver that is located in the control panel (switch to Classic view) Vista
  In the Intel GMA Mobile driver please select the display settings and check image format options.
  Maybe you will find an option that could help resolve this small frame!

  Chipset driver you can get on the Intel Web site

  The WLAN driver I found on the Toshiba site so download and install it.

  The speech system could be integrated into the audio driver.
  But download and install all the drivers and the system will work.
