Satellite A200-1AX: very grainy videos after Win 7 installation

Hello.

I have a toshiba Satellite A200-1ax and uses it for Vista when I got it.
I've got rid of the operating system and to install XP, thous install BIOS update for XP.
I recently installed Win7 and everything is good. The only problem I have is with video files.

Everything I look at is very grainy.
I installed codecs and the catalyst for Win7 beta and the thing got a little better. Always rasterized.
But the HD video files don't work at all. It's the same as having a video card that does not support HD.
Audio shopping before the video.

I have not changed anything with the BIOS.

The problem may be there? Can I update the BIOS for vista?

Windows 7 is not official on the market it s still in version beta and I think it contains many bugs at the moment
It would be really interesting to know if the same videos will work perfectly with win XP or Vista.

  • Re: Satellite A200-1AX does not start after the BIOS update

    Hi all!

    I wanted to install XP on a Satellite A200-1AX.
    So I tried to update the Bios to the version that supports supported XP.

    When I tried to install it, crashed Vista and now the laptop won't even turn on.

    When I keep the power button pressed, the whistling fan but nothing happens.
    I think the BIOS is gone or corrupted.

    What should I do?
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    > When I keep the power button pressed, the whistling fan but nothing happens. I think the BIOS is gone or corrupted. What should I do?

    What to say to boyfriend. It seems that something was wrong during the process of updating the BIOS maybe the BIOS was not written correctly and the ROM module must be flashed again with the help of a special procedure and the tool.

    In this case, you can do anything you will need to contact the ASP in your country for a fix!

    Don t waste time and ask a technician for assistance.

    Good luck and best regards

  • Satellite A200-1AX (PSAE6) NTLDR missing after backup retoring

    Hello my computer toshiba laptop A200-1AX (PSAE6) it came with Vista pre installed but I installed windows xp on it.
    Everything went well and I used acronis true image 11 home to perform a backup.

    Yesterday I tried to change my driver letter, and he told me that I can not change the letter.
    Then when I rebooted after awhile my windows would be stuck on the Welcome screen... then I tried to restore the backup with acronis bootable media... after the restore is completed and tried to boot, I have ntldr missing :(

    What has gone wrong? Can I register my cell phone from another format?

    Don t think that it would be able to solve this problem without reinstallation of the OS.

    Read some reviews on the missing NTLDR to error and one of the guys here in the forum found a solution to unlock the HARD drive and install XP:

  • Satellite A200-1AX (PSAE6E) - S-Video picture black, white and rolling

    I purhcased my A200 Satellite on my last trip abroad when I was away from the USA.

    Recently I tried to play a movie via s-video on my Sony TV purchased USA. The image is black and white and hilly. I have updated, updated and done everything possible for computers and readers. I tried an another Toshiba identical to mine, but was bought in the USA. It worked fine and all colors.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Hello

    I had the same problem a few months ago, and the reason was an S-video cable defective. As far as I know it was a very good cable too and I went to the store of the computer purchased a high-quality S-video cable. It was a little more expensive, but it works perfectly!
    Check it!

    In addition, you should check the output signal from the S-video port and the input on your TV mode. If you use NTSC, you have to set this mode, otherwise use the PAL mode.

  • Satellite A200-1AX: card reader SD and BT do not work after installing Win XP

    Hello

    About a year and a half, I bought my laptop Toshiba Satellite A200-1AX and I'm very happy with it.
    It had Vista on it. For this OS, my SD slot worked, but I don't know the bluetooth because I don't use it.

    Some time passed and I removed Vista and now I have Windows XP with sp3.
    All right, but the SD slot does not work. Bluetooth does not work as well and it is not listed in Device Manager.
    I tried Toshiba Bluetooth stack, and when the installation reaches the driver part it does not move.

    Here's a screenshot of my device manager:
    [http://img22.imageshack.us/my.php?image=devicem.jpg]

    Those with question marks is not supported by XP as I know, correct me if I'm wrong.

    Hello

    Satellite A200-1AX belongs to the PSAE6E series.
    It s equipped with BT module so after installing battery BT BT should work correctly, you need to activate using the FN + F8 keys.

    Regarding the housing of card reader SD;
    You must install the Flash Media Driver for Texas Instruments. This is the driver for the Bridge Media Slot. This slot allows you to insert an SD card, Memory Stick (Pro) or xD picture cards.

    By the way; the BIOS must be updated after the installation of Win XP. There is a version of BIOS (5, 60-WIN right now) that is specially designed for Win XP

  • Satellite A200-1AX: Win7 has very limited screen resolution

    ?:| Can someone help me please?

    I have a SCREEN RESOLUTION (1280 x 800) after that I went to w7, before I can get about 1600 x 1280 when I was in very limited vista. I lost my vista recovery disk so I decided to go with w7, but after that I did some installations/updates to update for all my drivers again my screen resolution gives me the size 1280 x 800 maximum.
    Anyone? Please? I need your suggestions...

    -J' have a Satellite A200 1AX (recently moved from vista to w7)
    -Screen: 15.4 "
    -My graphics card is ATI Mobility Radeon HD2600.
    -I just downloaded the latest driver from ATI.

    Please tell me what I'll do.
    Thanks in advance guys...: D
    Jeje

    > Until I can get around 1600 x 1280 when I was in vista
    I can't believe that why?
    Because the screen internal 15.4 "WIDE XGA supports a maximum resolution of 1280 x 800.
    Max which is possible on the internal display, and as a result, you will not be able to choose a higher resolution on the internal display.

    The resolution of the external display may be higher but not the resolution of the screen internal.

  • Satellite A200-1ax: could not get the BT working on Win XP

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba laptop satellite a200-1ax. I installed Windows XP sp2.
    My problem is that I can't get the bluetooth work. I have installed a Toshiba bluetooth driver and nothing. When I try to install the bluetooth stack Toshiba the instalation stops at the driver part and won't. I tried, and left for more than 2 hours and it was not moving.

    When I opened my device manager there is no place where a bluetooth connection is mentioned. In the bluetooth of the 5 information system services where collapsed and to manual start. I tried to start manually services.msc, but there was no available bluetooth service.

    You have to add that I have 3 elements in with question marks Device Manager:
    1. mass storage controller
    2. feature modem on high definition audio bus
    3 PCI memory controller.

    If anyone can help with the problem of bluetooth, or three missing drivers, please do :)

    Hello

    The Bluetooth should work!
    The laptop supports the BT module, and I think that you have not properly installed.

    Firstly don mix t the monitor BT with BT stack. You need the BT stack!
    I think that you should remove the software BT OS and after that new reboot should try to reinstall again.

    Then you must enable BT using the Fn + F8 key to complete the configuration of BT!

    Other devices such as PCI memory controller and mass storage controller. Are not supported by Windows XP and therefore there is no drivers!

    Hello

    The drivers of Toshiba laptops are a bit different and not the same thing as the drivers from the manufacturer of the graphics card.
    The original ATI drivers are made for office use and not for mobile use. Drivers Toshiba takes supported thermal protection that allows to control the performance of gpu and the dissipation of the heat.
    If you want to use a page ATI driver then your GPU could create more heat as usual which leads to the unexpected shutdown.

    I installed Win 7 on my A210. I didn't install the driver of ATI graphics card because the Win 7 automatically recognizes the graphics chip.
    After installation, I went to the Device Manager. Then, I chose the graphics chip and looked for the driver automatically. Windows has found the right driver and installed this
    Since the unit works perfectly with Win 7

  • Satellite A200 PSAF3A - ccreen goes black after installing the graphics driver

    Hello.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A200 which has the video adapter Mobile Intel (r) 965 Express Chipset Family (256 MB).

    I bought my computer in Australia and is the SATELLITE A200 (PSAF3A-08202D) with Windows XP.
    The computer began to be very slow, and since I had a lot of programs that I wanted more I restored it to the out of the box.

    The problem is that the screen went black after the windows logo. He worked only in safe mode. I deleted the drivers of graphics cards and it works but without a graphics card.

    Now, I can't play games or watch movies.
    Whenever I try to install the driver, no matter if its from the cd that came with the computer, the toshiba Web page or the Web site intel it still restarts black screen.

    I tried to disable the adapter instead of uninstall. When I enable it, she accepts and he will say his work but just with screen resolution of 640 x 480.

    If I try to put it above it is always black.
    Can someone help me?

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    First of all, you should visit this Australian page from Toshiba:
    http://www.ISD.Toshiba.com.au
    You will find all the drivers for this model of laptop.

    I checked and found that there is a BIOS v2.5.
    Check if the BIOS needs to be updated (if the older BIOS is installed)

    In addition, there is a display driver v14.29.1.4833 and chipset driver v8.2.0.1012
    Install it!

    Last but not least the Win XP should be updated to the latest state!

  • Re: Satellite A200-1AX - black and delay image display

    My Satellite A200-1AX is 3 weeks old and its LCD screen has been replaced by Toshiba Center here, to the Kuwait due to defects.
    After placing the new LCD screen I notice that whenever I'm turning on and off the device, a black picture delay appears slowly and disapperaing.

    Can you please tell me if this is normal in appearance as the technician in the Toshiba Service Center told me?

    is there a problem with the installation of the new LCD?
    I find this thing as an abnormal display when booting and the shutdown of Unity State.

    Hope that give you sometimes meet me and best regards.

    Hello

    It very difficult to understand how this question is similar to s

    But to be honest I didn't noticed any delay return image on my laptop
    If I boot the laptop, the Toshiba start screen appears and then after several seconds the notebook starts the Windows operating system. The screen immediately goes from black to blue (windows form). The same phenomenon occurs during the closing procedure

    This issue is perhaps something to do with the first replacement of the screen, but this is just a suggestion

  • Satellite A200-1AX - External monitor reset

    Hello

    You can disable the option in the power options of Vista to prevent mode standby when the lid is closed.

    > I got my self and Acer monitor 20 inch and after a few minutes of use resets the monitor (becomes black and goes up to 1280 x 800).
    However, reading this post I'm not sure if your external monitor goes black or the A200 display internal.
    Is what screen affected?

    Did you try a BIOS and update the display driver?

  • Drop in severe performance on extended usage - Satellite A200-1AX

    Hello world
    I have problems with my Satellite A200 about long (3-4 + hrs) periods of use.

    After this period, the machine knows performance progressive, starting from piercing screams while playing sounds to complete unable to play videos or music, run the processor intensive software and so on. Also, the laptop seems to overheat a little beyond this period. In addition, while experiencing problems and try to improve the performance by closing unnecessary programs, I am unable to do it normally / the level of Task Manager (they are somehow insensitive to menu dialogue Vista or 3rd party software for killing processes).

    The problem started to appear after about 1 month because using Recovery Kit of products due to corrupted 7 days ago. DLL (it worked fine for the month).

    I also ran several software spies/virus checks (by ZoneAlarm/AVG/AdAware) no available, registry cleaning carried out, checked Vista and driver updates. However, the problem persists.

    What should I do to solve the problem? Everyone knows these declines in performance, before?

    It's very strange, and it is not easy to say why this can happen. Nobody knows what you do with your laptop to us or which applications you use for every day use. I use the Satellite A200 to my work and I use it more than 8 hours a day.

    My work is on the Internet, write emails and the intensive use of IE7 and Opera at the same time. All the time works Internet radio on WinAMP and time to copy different files from our corporate network. Everything works and you don't believe me, laptop is not yet hot.

    Please do not forget that your laptop is placed correctly on the table. Maybe you can put two CD boxes under the rear of your laptop to make the greatest distance between the party office and bottom of your laptop. Make sure that nothing is blocking the cooling fans and your laptop can be cooled properly.

    Disable the autostart for all applications, you do not need for your work. I don't know if there's anything you need, so many applications for virus/spyware controls. I guess that all programs soon or later, one of them got in the way with each other.

    It can be so many things, but no one here will be able to say with certainty what the problem is here.

  • Re: Satellite A200-1BQ, does not not after the screen saver

    Hi, I have a Satellite A200, 32-bit Windows 7 OS. When you use the screensaver to the PC stop responding. Have to spend because no response.

    If you have a report some problem send it please.

    Hello

    This means that Windows 7 hangs and does not answer only when the screen saver has been activated?
    Have you noticed the same problem with Win XP or Win Vista?

    If not then this behavior of the laptop could be related only to Win 7 and I think that it might be caused by the graphic card driver

    Remove the graphics driver that you have installed and test the screen saver using the common windows driver 7

    It would be interesting to know what is happening

  • Satellite A200 - PSAF6A Vista: HDMI video resolution problem

    Hello

    Bought a Toshiba Satellite A200 recently, with a HD2600. Because I can't find an APA Help Forum, I hope someone can help me here.

    I have the following problem.
    I use another manufacturer AL2216W (the only available driver is for XP, which I installed it on Vista Ultimate without any problems) widescreen 22'.

    The monitor is capable of displaying 1680 x 1050 (60 Hz). If I connect it to the analog port of the laptop, I can select the resolution and it works very well.

    If I connect it to (via a DVI - D to HDMI Cable adapter) HDMI port on my laptop, the highest resolution is only 1440 x 900. I already installed the drivers several times, but it does not show the resolution 1680 in digital mode.

    The strange thing is that the monitor is correctly identified with the resolution to 1680 x 1050.

    I use the extended view option, since I want to use both screens.

    Thank you

    What do you think of technical requirements?
    Maybe the graphics card does not offer this resolution for HDMI port. I don't think you can solve this problem with the latest driver from Toshiba. I know that you want to have the digital signal, but if nothing works try to use this adapter.
