• Satellite A200-1FL: cooler starts and stops every minute only with battery

  Hello.

  I just bought an A200-1FL and I test these days. I noticed that the cooler starts and stops every minute about when I use it only with the battery.

  Disconnected from the power, even if I do not have too much, just browse the Internet. Is this normal?

  If I work with trendy food, the cooler makes no noise.

  Thank you.

  Hello David

  Do you also have it tested with different profiles in power options (balanced, power saver, high performance)?

  Your PC has shipped HD ALC888S. I scoured the Web and found someone who has exactly the same problem with audio built-in. Solved by updating the embedded HD codec. Update driver http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/ .

  Realtek posted the new driver 2.1 01/12/08 so it can do the trick.

• Windows Media Center is unable to output Dolby Digital/DTS via SPDIF... only stereo PCM is sent

  Hello

  I recently bought a desktop computer HP Pavilion with Vista Home Premium (64 bit) 5150t.  The PC comes with a TV tuner and it works well with Media Center except that it cannot output Dolby Digital (or the other program on the air with JJ or DVDs of films that have a DD) outside of my A / V receiver.

  My Board has Realtek HD Audio and I activated the digital (SPDIF) output in its program.  I put the "Properties" of the digital output in support of * TWO * DTS and Dolby Digital encoding.  When I press the 'Test' button for either format, outside A / V receiver correctly recognizes the format, so the problem is not with my receiver.

  Read forums and online help notes, I strongly suspect that the codec MPEG-2 by default for Windows Media Center is not configured correctly for cross DD or DTS - it somehow always stereo down-Mix before sending to SPDIF.  Could you tell me how to check and change codec setting?  Thank you!

  Hi Chow Ho.
   
  This problem occurs because the DirectShow component and audio decoder MPEG2 in Windows Vista does not correctly support DTS pass through S/PDIF or HDMI.
   
  To work around this problem, click to select the box Audio DTS and Dolby Digital check box in the SPDIF Out properties dialog box or the dialog box Properties of HDMI Out .

• Satellite A200 - hard drive not recognized

  Hello. Deploy a satellite A200.

  Original problem would not initialize only power light and hard drive light came on a second, nothing on the screen, not access to the parameters of F2. Reinstall memory, no go, deleted the test and drive hard and read disc hard ok in an external enclosure. With disk hard deleted computer will start after market boot disk and running program diagnosis ok. Can now access the settings of F2.

  Format external hard drive, reinstall and start with the startup disk, hard disk appears in the bios, the test runs diagnostic ok.
  Tried to install Windows XP and XP pro and windows twice starts to install and then comes up with an error saying there is no hard drive present, even if the Bios and a diagnostic boot disk at the same time recognize the hard drive.
  Tried another hard drive with the same problem, not recognized.

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  Have you tried to reinstall Windows using the Toshiba Recovery disk? Normally with this record everything should work fine because it s pre-tested and specifically designed for your laptop.
  Check this box!

  In the worst cases, your HARD drive is faulty and you need a new. The HARD drive seems to have random failures.

• Re: Satellite A200-1ZF how to run the Toshiba face recognition system

  Hello

  How can I use on my Satellite A200 Toshiba face recognition system?

  The only problem with this software is the program do not see my cam.
  I mean... he see cam, but when I try to save the new face in system then I can read something like "the webcam is currently used or there is problem with hardware.

  So I turn off the webcam toshiba utility, but nothing has changed.
  The hand of the webcam is running correctly. Her webcam Chicony as in the series of toshiba A300 same driver is the same (date, time, number, series)
  So if someone knows what could be wrong please answer...

  Thank you
  Good bye

  Hello

  I checked the download page for your laptop Satellite recognition tool and the face is not available, so I assume that you downloaded it for a different model of laptop.
  It is not so important, and I think it should work anyway.

  I have more Satellite P200 and he was also delivered without face recognition tool. I installed it anyway and it works perfectly. My laptop have factory settings and camera Assistant software is DISABLED.

  Your laptop is installed with the recovery image too?

  Try to remove the preinstalled face recognition software and remove the webcam in Device Manager, restart your laptop and try to install it again. It works on my laptop and I see no reason why it shouldn't work on your too.
  On this forum many people asked if this software can run on older models of laptops and a lot of people have confirmed that it works well.

• Dolby Digital Audio output via HDMI on Satellite A200 cable?

  I don't see how to get a Dolby Digital signal on my laptop!

  I have a screen LCD HD 1080 p television. With the help of a cable HDMI from laptop to TV gives a beautiful image. I then use an optical link between TV and Surround amplifier... However the amp does not recognize the signal as a Dolby Digital signal.

  The record is not clear on issues of Audio. The Toshiba HD-DVD player shows Dolby Digital option and I guess that's out put down the HDMI cable? I hear through the TV speakers.

  Hints would be much appreciated.

  Hello

  To be honest I didn t know that there is Satellite A200 laptops with HDMI output. Can you please tell me what A200 you have (A200-xxx)? Are you really sure have an A200?

  Back to your problem: as far as I know the Digital Dolby audio can be sent if the laptop has S/PDIF port. You must also use an optical cable and connect laptop to your amp directly.

  What you do now is send the signal to the TV only. I don't really know if you can browse the Dolby signal to the amp.

• 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.

• No sound on the TV LCD Satellite A200 is connected via HDMI

  The problen is: I connect to laptop (A200) for LCD TV (Philips) by HDMI. The video is OK, but his stay on laptop not LCD TV.

  Maybe the problem is THAT HDMI 1.2 does support audio and video not together? Only 1.3?

  How can I get my slot of multimedia digital maps to work on my Satellite A200 laptop 1Ai?
  I tried inserting xD card and it won't read or find the driver software

  First: installed all the drivers and so on? It's really important. If you haven't already done so go on the toshiba driver download site and download them.

  Otherwise, follow these instructions:

  Go to your control panel and open the administrative tools. After their opening, go to services, then the service 'smart card '. Start and 'activate' service to make your card reader work.

• Re: Satellite A200-28 cannot read the SD card of the digital camera

  Hello

  I just tried to get my laptop Satellite A200-28 to read my camera, an SD card and it happens in the card reader, but nothing happens.

  To what extent do you have to press or on my desktop, is not go very far before the card starts to blink and it opens the contents of the card. But on my laptop nothing.
  Just, it lets you put the card in but does not seem to realize is there actually.

• Cannot send the Dolby Digital XP on Satellite P100-347

  The problem I have is that I can't get the Dolby Digital to send from my laptop to my amp, apart from the use of the library. I have the portable (Tosh P100-347) connected to my amp via a SPDIF cable.

  Basically, in Media Center, I am able to change the settings, so that the amp captures the Dolby Digital signal, during playback of a DVD from the laptop, however, I am unable to get this transmitted signal during playback (HDTV) videos that are stored on my laptop. I know they are encoded with dolby digital.

  Also, if I use another player media, such as media player and media player classic, I'm not able to get the signal digital dolby conveyed either.

  I took a quick glance and think I have changed what is necessary, but still can't find anyway to do. I would get this sort you like playing HDTV content from my laptop and also play the latest games in dolby digital when available.

  Help, please.

  Hello

• Satellite A200 - interfacing with Sky HD box, via the i.Link on my laptop.

  Satellite A200-1VP

  I'm trying to find away to check my laptop DVD, my disk drive hard SKY HD boxes, so I can copy the recorded programs from the HDD to DVD discs from the sky.

  But don't have a HDMI interface port, only the AVI & output VGA, which does not have a digital input, only the other signal output as we understand it.

  So I thought to using the port i.Link (IEEE 1394-a), as it was designed to send DVD date camcorder to the laptop to be registered? wouldn't the camcorder DVD send a digital signal, and if this is the case, shouldn't it work this way? Is there a device or cable on the market that I could use to make the possible interface to do this?

  I have watched cable, through the Internet but can't seem to find a HDMI / i.Link (IEEE 1394-a) lacking USB i.Link (IEEE 1394-a), but seem to be under the impression that the USB 2 is unable to deliver the date at a fast enough speed to make it work...

  Any ideas would help thanks.

  Why don't you talk with your local dealer and experts for this?
  If you do not have matching port on your laptop, you need another external solution.
