• Satellite A200 - 1C0 - overheating and close

  Hello world:

  I ve got a Satellite A200 - 1C0 PSAE0E and since one month, it stops due to overheating (hybridized with hot CPU). The fact is that when I restart the computer to the BIOS screen, fan of the processor begins to work at a very high speed (to cool the CPU), but to start Windows to start the fan suddenly stops, and the fact is that the CPU is always at 78 degrees celsius.

  I tried updating the BIOS, reinstall windows recovery partition and all components, but it does not solve anything. Also tried to install Windows 7 and still nothing and windows Xp and still nothing. I Don t know what else to do. Help will be apreciated.

  Thank you very much.

  Hey,.

  To properly clean your cooling system, see this article from Toshiba:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD7A01ZZ000AR01.htm

  Another reason could be the old thermal grease and maybe, it must be renewed. If t, you can do it yourself, ask a technician for laptop help! :)

• Can satellite A200 - 14 d - I install Windows 7?

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A200 - 14 d and I think to install Windows 7 on it.
  I put 1 GB of additional RAM.

  Is it possible to install it?
  And if so where can I find the drivers for it?

  Hello

  Theoretically you can install Windows 7 Why not? What do you think about this?

  But in your case I would not install Windows 7 because it s only a beta version and can cause many problems. Moreover, I don't see a reason to install Windows 7. I am still using Windows XP and it s enough for me.

  Normally, you can download the drivers on the Toshiba site, but for a beta OS you won't find not all the drivers on the Web site. If you're searching on external sites as Intel find some.
  Good luck.

• Re: Satellite A200-237 ETA-6 with Windows XP

  Hi ppl,

  My name is Sibbe and I am from Holland and here again.
  A few months ago, I bought the Satellite A200-237, distributed initially with Windows Vista. I really enjoyed working with Vista, but everyone knows that Vista slows down your system. Also a lot of software and games do not work on Vista so I wanted to try if my laptop also works with Windows XP.
  So I installed Windows XP on my laptop, no drivers or software. After hours of searching on Google, I discovered that a lot of things that worked on my laptop with Vista don't work also on XP. For example:

  -FN button does not work on XP ((quand j'ai appuyé sur le bouton dans Vista, flashcards est apparu sur le dessus de mon écran) only the green light comes on but the F1 to F12 keys does not work)

  -Toshiba Power Saver ((en fait, cela ne fonctionne pas sur Vista mais c'était parce qu'il y avait beaucoup d'options dans les paramètres d'énergie de Vista) now, on XP, you need to install another program first before saving work?)

  In any case, is anyway how I can do these things work under XP. And, of course, would be nice if I could use the flash cards for the FN key, but I suppose Toshiba has never done those for XP.

  Data sheet:
  Intel Core 2 Duo T8100 2.09 GHz
  2 GB of RAM
  ATI Mobility Radeon HD2600 256 MB
  230Gb S - ATA HDD
  Windows XP SP2 (not yet fully updated)

  Thanks in advance!

  If you have installed XP on the Satellite A200 series you should not t forget to update the BIOS to the XP version.
  If you n t update the BIOS, then your FN buttons will not work even if the correct drivers are installed.

  So be careful and do not forget that the BIOS and other XP drivers designed for you, the series are installed correctly!

• Satellite A200 - need ACPI Driver for Windows XP Home edition?

  Hello!

  I have a Satellite A200-13U Notebook and installed WinXP top.
  I found all the drivers, but the ACPI driver is missing and I can't find it.

  Can someone help me please?

  At the moment there is no help. I'll tell you why. To resolve this problem, you need to install the 'password utility"or"Utility supervisor password". This issue is described on the document tracking http://support.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB7501W20006R01.htm descriebe Briefcase with Vista, but I presume that it is the same with Windows XP Home edition.

  So the problem is that this new A200, there is no Windows XP Home edition utility. For now A200 is not supported WXP.

  Update:
  Pilots should be available!

• Satellite A200 PSAECE - fan of Windows 7 (& BIOS)

  Dear community,

  I installed the latest version of BIOS Toshiba offers for Windows Vista (v.1.80 21/08/07) and I'm running on Windows 7 on a Satellite A200 PSAECE.

  The fan is very VERY strong. I've heard talk of a solution would be to return to a previous version of the BIOS but I can't find it anywhere.

  No indication of how to proceed? Something must be done about it, cannot even bring the laptop to the cause of the library of people complain. (The fan was MUCH less noisy before...)

  Thank you!

  Hello

  Go to the Windows 7 power management and change the settings of the most friendly battery.
  There should also be an option that decrease the performance of the processor, and this could slow down the cooling performance.

• Satellite U840W-10J - noisy fan and the version of the bios

  Hello

  more top of the machine when you run tempro said new version of bios is available, the link to it is [Satellite U840W BIOS 6, 40 - WIN | http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_driver_details.jsp?service=EU&selCategory = 2 & selFamily = 2 & selSeries = 198 & selProduct = 7570 & selSh ortMod = null & language = 13 & selOS = 40 & selType = 4 & yearupl = DST & monthupload = & dayupload = & useDate = null & mode = all Machines & search = & action = search & macId = & country = all & selectedLanguage = 13 & type = 4 & page = 1 & ID = 84640 & DISO =-1 & driverLanguage = 42]

  But when I go to the bios, it says the version of bios is already 6.4 - which is strange since the release of this version of the bios date is 10/07/13. And I don't know that I don't have day of the bios for this version this month :)

  Why does say new version is available?
  Would be - that there's a newer version available, that only that it binds to an evil?
  Even if I download and try to install it, it says that this version of the rom is the same.

  Second question is noisy fan, most of the time is at very high speed (and because of the odd design, when the laptop is open, screen - which becomes really hot fan).
  Since no other laptop I used make these noises, if I really need to update for the bios? But which version?

  Health Monitor shows the 77% fan speed - and I'm not playing games or whatever it is, cpu is always below 10%, I m doing nothing, just a light browsing can turn up to such percentage. What I've noticed, is that it becomes this top still when HARD drive this is - like application installation, download updates, etc... I have download the latest drivers intel to drive HARD, all drivers are more recent. Or is it only noisy due to bad design (fan blowing on screen), and I can use it for heavy work and just have to ignore the noise of the fan?

  Last updated driver to trackpad kills finger double scroll btw, so, maybe you guys could solve the problem too? Since I had to go back to the old version.

  BTW, the machine is only two days old

  I think that you should not be confused on BIOS. Maybe there is a problem with Tempro. This process runs automatically and it is possible that there is a technical problem. If you have latest BIOS is OK so Don t you worry about this. Just continue to use your laptop and don t change anything.

  What about cooling fan? Cooling fan is controlled automatically and according to the temperature CPU cooling fan works more rapid or slower. When you play the games you need more performance, so use leverage plan high performance. For each day of activities, use the balanced power plan. It will reduce the CPU usage, but it will be good enough for low level activities. What you can try is to change the options for the method of cooling. You can find it in the advanced power options. It should reduce fan cooling and portable activity should run quietly.

  Play around with these options.

• Satellite A200 - BIOS update and fan activity

  Hello..

  I have the Satellite A200-1AH (PSAE6E). I have installed the version of the BIOS 2.10 update and electric fans started working out loud. I want to install v1.30 BIOS (the best for me) but I can't find it anywhere. Can you help me please?

  I noticed that Toshiba has updated versions of BIOS 4 times in 4 months. So does that mean? I want to have the mobile rear silencer

  I guess the Toshiba engineers have changed some values in the new BIOS update and thereby you have noticed this problem of fan. I think they have a few reasons for this.

  If you want to have the old version of the BIOS, you should try to contact authorized service provider in your country. They should have.

• Noisy fan with 10 Windows using Portege Z30 - B

  I have my Toshiba Portege Z-30 b for the last 7 months. He received with Windows 8 pro. installed, all played very well. I have upgraded to Windows 10 about 5 months ago, after the upgrade, the fan ran constantly at a high unacceptable noise. Toshiba service replaced the fan - no result. I have been informed by the service to install the utility 'eco' - done. No results. I was informed by the service don't upgrade to the latest version of the Bios - done, no results. The noise is there in case of station dock, here in the position "charge" and there when it is on battery. I seriously consider to sell and move to the Lenovo or Dell. Anyone has any advice?

  It is more than 1 year... and still no good solution.

• Satellite A200-1VP - Trackpad and the control volume

  Hello

  for the first time posting here so apologies in advance if I posted this topic in the wrong place or have not included all relevant information.

  My question is about a Satellite A200-1VP I bought recently from a friend. Model number PSAE6E-08D02YEN. The laptop has been completely annihilated and installed Windows 7 Ultimate before being redeemed.

  This seems to have brought the track pad and volume control to stop working.
  Are there drivers available that I could try to help to solve this problem?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  I checked on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp Toshiba download page, and as I can see it, your machine is fully supported for Win7 32 bit, so you need to do is install all available drivers, tools and utilities.

  What version of operating system are you using (32 or 64 bit)?
  You have installed all the drivers?

• Satellite A200 - 23K - Excel and Word has stopped working

  Hello!

  I have a problem on my Toshiba Satellite A200 - 23 k. I installed windows 7 and office 2010. I have a problem whenever I try to run excel or word it stop working. It shows who has stopped working the window.

  Maybe someone had the same problem and knows a solution? Thank you in advance. Waiting for answer

  Hey Buddy,

  As far as I know Office 2010 isn't on the market yet and he s only available beta version.

  You must choose an official version of the office such as Office 2007 or 2003. Both versions work well and most of the problems he's already resolved.

• Re: Question on Satellite A200-1SX fan

  Hey everybody.
  I recently bought a Satellite A200-1SX and I noticed that the fan is running constantly for about 5 seconds then turns off.
  Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening? Is this normal? Is there a software that can help me?

  Thanks to a bouquet.

  Hi mate,

  already tried a BIOS update? It would probably help, but I can't promise you...
  To download the latest version of the BIOS on the Toshiba site just go here-> http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/jsp/home.do?service=EU&from=http%3A//www.toshiba-europe.com/

  and join the drivers download section is you just have to go to "Support and downloads"-> 'Support Home Page'-> ' download - download drivers ' and choose your machine and the desired driver/tool. (In your case the BIOS updated)

  Another option would be to modify the powersaver, so that the won´t FAN turn all the time. You can keep your machine much quieter by choosing parameters of performance lower (I think that the low performance shouldn´t be recognizable during 'normal' work) which translates (or should) in less than rotation of the FAN.

  Just check it out by clicking on 'Toshiba Powersaver' in the 'Control Panel'.

• 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 A200-17O - how to restore Windows to the factory settings?

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A200-17O. I want to restore Windows Vista to factory settings, I did not need to backup all the files. I don't have the product recovery CD. When I press F8 and click on the "Repair" option, it will give me all the options, but when I click on the option to completely recover the system (the one on the bottom), it will simply open a window telling me to back up my data, then theres a button 'OK', and when I click that, the window will simply close and return to the menu options. All I want is to return Vista to factory settings.

  Thank you for your help.

  Hello

  Yes, normally you can restore your computer laptop initial configuration using disk HARD recovery option. Therefore, you must follow the instructions here:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD1303440001R01.htm

  If it doesn't work, you need to use the Toshiba recovery disc. If your computer laptop didn t come with such a recovery disk you create yourself using recovery preinstalled creator tool. This is mentioned in your user manual, have you checked it?

  Therefore, you need a few blank DVDs. I recommend the DVD-R from Verbatim or TDK. Many users here have a good experience with these brands.

  If you have any other questions, just after again! ;)

• Satellite A200 - freeze occasionally and fade to the white of the screen

  I have a satellite A200, bought new last year. Sometimes the computer crashes, the screen starts fading to white and darker horizontal and vertical lines appear on the screen. I pressed the power switch until it turns off so I can restart, but after the reboot, it works fine. Initially this has happened only rarely, but it's starting to happen more and more lately.

  It happens very suddenly and it makes no difference, what I'm doing at the time. Sometimes it does just after the market. Does anyone know why he could do that? I'm not very technically savvy, so I would appreciate if you could explain it to me in a way I could understand :)

  I heard of some people having the same problem and can be caused by faulty wiring in the monitor. If this is the problem is it likely to be covered by warrantly?

  Post edited by: Charlie Llama

  You also have this problem on an external monitor? If this isn't the case, it sounds like a problem internal monitor and I think that it should be replaced.

  If your laptop is still under warranty the repair should be free for you. So in your case I would contact the nearest ASP that you can find on the Toshiba site:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported downloads & => find an authorized service provider

  Good luck!
