• Satellite A200-193 - installing an extra HARD drive

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A200-193 and I would like to install one additional go 160 HARD drive into the free location.
  The problem is that there is no SATA connector to this place (switch on the motherboard, not more).
  I know there are computer A200 laptop with a second HDD and my question is "if I go into an official TOSHIBA Service Center, it is possible to install a SATA connector in this free site, this is to allow the installation of additional HARD drive?

  If someone could help me on this point, it would be great.

  Thank you.

  Hi Mathieu

  I see that you are a bit confused ;)
  As you known t n, there are probably different Satellite A200 series a series helps the second HARD drive upgrade and some A200 series cannot be upgraded
  But the A200 series was equipped with the same laptop covers

  This means that you will find the second drive HARD on all mobile A200 Bay but the drive HARD (SATA) connectors don t exist on each series.
  It seems that your laptop cannot be upgraded with the second HARD disk because of the second missing HARD drive interface.

  I hope I can clarify this confusing question ;)

  Good bye

• Satellite A200-193 - update of the BIOS under Linux

  Hi all

  I have a 3 years old Toshiba Satellite A200 - 193 (PSAEC), purchased in France, it's apparently not released in the United States - or not under the reference of thos - because I can't find it in the database of the Toshiba bios. (I could post in a french forum, but there is no such support :-/)

  The bios is a Phoenix, v1.30. This bios is known to have a bug inside, preventing the unofficial OS and not patched like linux to properly treat the acpi (control of the fan in particular). The temperature is higher than it should be.

  I tried to update my bios to 1.80 through the en of the toshiba site, but I and draw attention to say "this bios should only be used with Vista.
  OK, so it's purely disgraceful given the specific instructions of OS have NOTHING to do inside of a bios, what are my options?

  Has anyone installed this BIOS? He end up by properly?

  Thank you very much

  Hey Buddy,

  Please don t get me wrong, but Toshiba doesn't provide any support for Linux. This means that you search yourself for drivers or solutions and that s why the BIOS update is only Windows Vista supported.

  This means that if you want to do this update, you must install the operating system preinstalled Toshiba, I think that in this case Vista. Then, you are able to update the BIOS.

• Satellite A200-1AE: Toshiba Disc Creator and DVD MovieFactory missing after update

  I've updated Toshiba Satellite A200-1AE from Vista Home to Vista Enterprise, but now I can't find TOSHIBA Disc Creator and DVD MovieFactory for TOSHIBA software.

  No idea how to get this software?

  Thanks, Bojan

  It seems that your Vista upgrade crashed the previous settings and therefore applications such as TOSHIBA Disc Creator and DVD Movie Factory has disappeared

  You search anywhere?

• Satellite U205: unable to write to DVDs

  Hello
  I recently bought a laptop Satellite U205. I can't write on any blank DVDs. The drive is a DVD optical drive and support writing on the blank DVD as well. I can read and copy DVDs on my drive hard, but not vice versa. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

  Hello

  It seems that your drive can read but not write DVD media.
  Are you sure that the installed driver should write (burn) on DVD s to 100%?

  This drive is installed in your laptop?
  Additional you should also know that every DVD burner is capable of burning each DVD.
  There is + and media. Some readers are able to manage only the media and others only the +

  In your case, I recommend you to check the disc for compatibility with the media

• Satellite A200: Not able to write DVD using Win XP

  Hello

  I have an A200 - 1 MB (PSAEO) that came with Vista home premium installed. After this downgrade to XP Professional, I am not able to write something on the DVD.

  Help, please. Model # for the DVD drive is TS-L632D.

  Help, please.

  Thank you

  James

  Hello

  I assume that you have installed all the drivers for the Toshiba driver page. You also update the BIOS to the XP version?
  You should do this if you have changed the operating system and if you use XP instead of Vista.

  May I ask how you try to burn data to a DVD disc?
  Are you using a 3rd party burning software?

  I use Nero and I m very pleased it burns different types of CDs and DVDs.

  Feedback would be appreciated.

• Re: Satellite A200-209 - Windows 7 cannot see DVD drive

  Hey

  Ive reinstalled my (new) PC from Windows 7 to Windows 7 and some time after I had this problem.

  My DVD drive is "unseenable" of Windows and it can not read any disks.

  I think its something about the drivers, but I can't find a driver for DVD: P

  THX.

  Optical disc drive is listed as unknown device in Device Manager?

• Satellite M30-604 will not write on DVD

  I've been sucessfully copy data to a CD with Nero in the past and decided to try to copy to a Verbatim 4 x certified DVD - RW and have no chance (says the 'negative' RW was compatible with Tosh). Tried in Nero but it gets stuck on "waiting for the drive to become ready". Tried Drag and Drop but it ask me to insert a disk.

  I tried to reinstall the Toshiba DVD-RAM driver (but I have no idea if this is what I need), unchecked the "enable CD writing on this drive" in the properties of the D drive, but so far without success. My laptop has a DVD-R/RW drive which I guess, allows me to copy data on DVD. Any help greatly appreciated, I don't know what else to do!

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  as a first step, you need to uninstall one of the burning software and try to burn a DVD again!
  Then you need to update your Nero, it may be that you are using an older version that is not able to burn DVDs with your car!
  A firmwareupdate of your player is also helpful! You can download it from http://www.toshiba-europe.com/storage/index.asp?nav=HOM&page=HOM&frame=home

  Hello world

  as many of you did, I also lost my DVD ROM icon in the box of the computer and then I read the post on the forum and discover that there is a function of regedit. I read the related articles like [http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/929461/en-us]
  but the problem is that there isn't any section UPPERFILTERS or LOWERFILTERS in my registry list.

  There is a picture of the situation that I get it by the print screen function, but I can't put a picture I guess if I can describe it only sorry.

  I'll double check the shaft extension. Can you help me on my problem where make a mistake?
  Thank you for your support

  Hello

  I had this problem too and the removal of the upper and lower filters helped.
  Here are the steps how I managed this issue;
  -Remove the drive from Device Manager CD/DVD
  -remove the filters above and below to the following registry key:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
  (in addition, you can check this MS knowledge base article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/270008/en-us)
  -restart the computer and wait for Windows has recognized again the STRANGE.

• Cannot start Recovery on my Satellite A200-1N5

  I need help please

  I can't do the recovery of my Satellite A200-1N5.
  When the recovery DVDs starts is a message says that windows couldn't start .a recent hardware or software change might be the cause (and then I followed the instructions but no change coming)

  Best regards

  Thank you.

  Hello

  In my opinion recovery didn't start at all. Please, start your laptop and press the F12 key. Keep it down for a few seconds and the start menu appears. Choose the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER.

  If all goes well you'll hear running the CD/DVD drive and the activity on the screen.

• Problem creating the disk hard recovery Satellite A200 + touch pad

  So I lent my laptop to my daughter until she could get enough to buy a PC.
  Well, I got it back that only she has installed a bunch of stuff to the point where it is blowing on vista even after than my attempts to clean I decided to start the laptop using the creation of recovery disk came with the laptop.

  But now, I used about 8 dvd discs, trying to create a good drive but I restart fr. with the disc in... nothing happens. I'm trying to spend directly in vista... and he says can not read the disc. I've recreated the disc several times and the same result and well, it was the only type of restore disc that came with the laptop]

  Also as I've gotten at the time when I use the touchpad my cursor is jumping around, is that fixable?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Sorry, but something must be wrong in your post. As far as I know Satellite A200 comes with original Toshiba Recovery DVD. You should not create anything. New laptops like A300 do NOT come with DVD recovery and each laptop user, it should only create, but not with Toshiba Disc Creator. For this Toshiba application offers another tool. The name is Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator. It is not the same tool. So you have probably original Toshiba drive.

  So if you have it please use this recovery DVD as described in this thread:

• Satellite A200 PSAF0A - cannot use the DVD writer / reader more

  Hello
  Anyone has any advice on this?

  Laptop: Satellite A200, PSAF0A
  Require: DVD burner / player sofware.

  My hard drive died last week, so a techno guy installed a new and reinstalled the OS (Vista)... everything works fine. But don't have Toshiba Utilities for the use of the DVD burner / player more. Where is it? I downloaded the player to DVD from Toshiba, but it does not work. It doesn't do anything. Media player plays sound but no video.

  The software that I used to play DVDs accompanying the package when I bought it; InterVideo WinDVD I remember well.
  I downloadeded V 8, but it does not work either. I need Codecs etc, right?

  Looked at Toshiba Europe site for the DVD player, but I think it's the same DVD s/w that I have already downloaded.
  But there is no download of my model, PSAF0A (Satellite A200) in all cases.

  I do not have the CD - they are comfortable in another country! (Unless, of course, my nephew is using them as a frisbee that could well be the case). Help!

  It seems that Toshiba do not publish the DVD software on the site... maybe its due to the issues of the region / license?

  Try AVS DVD Player (its free).
  If you need a MPEG2 codec, install ffdshow

  The two are in http://www.free-codecs.com

• Re: Satellite A200 - DVD player can read but cannot write

  Hello

  Some time ago my DVD writter has stopped working. I have Windows 7 with the latest toshiba drivers.

  The DVD is very good playback of the inserted cd/dvd, the unit is OK in Device Manager, but when you write a DVD it fails somewhere over 50% with "unknown error."

  I tried Nero and standard windows app.

  What do you recommend?

  Hello

  Did you test different DVD from different manufacturers?
  I had a similar problem in the past and since I use TDK R DVDs and CDs and these discs work correctly.

  I also recommend cleaning the DVD player with alkohole laser lens and the tip of the batting.
