• Satellite A200 (PSAFCA) does not work after BIOS update triying

  Hello

  I was hoping if someone could help me pls.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A200 (PSAFCA).
  Recently, I tried the bios update and while I flashed the bios I forgot to plug the laptop into the current and the battery was flat at half way through the flashing.

  Thus the laptop now won't post when I turn on and all I get is a white screen.
  I was wondering if someone could pls advise me on how I can get the old bios back or even a method of flashing it if I put the bios back in so I can at least get a message to display on the screen.

  Any help that you provide would be greatly appreciated as I am at a loss.

  Thanking you in advance

  Well buddy, the cell must always be connected to the mains during the execution of an update of the BIOS! This is very important!
  Now it looks like the update of BIOS didn't t run and finish correctly and the ROM module seems to be flashed incorrectly.

  Unfortunately, there is no other solution to communicate with ASP guys and ask for help! They should be able to help you.

  But note; in the worst cases, the ROM module is unfortunate and the motherboard needs to be replaced.

  Good luck

• Satellite A200 PSAFCA-01H00J upgraded to 4 GB of RAM but can see only 3 GB

  Hello

  * UPGRADE RAM PROBLEMS *.

  I just upgraded my laptop from 2 GB to 4 GB of RAM, * but cannot access the 3 GB *.
  I checked all the documents, and he indicates that the laptop should be expandable to 4 GB of RAM.

  Oddly enough, the site of [mytoshiba.com.au | http://mytoshiba.com.au] does not list my exact model under "abandoned" (as if it never existed!). Although there are a number of similar models according to [http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/web/resource/pdf/discontinued-models/notebooks/satellite/satellite_a200_psafca-01k00j.pdf]

  _OTHER WINDOWS7 64 BIT PROBLEMS_

  I also added a larger HARD drive (the original HARD drive wasn't @ ~ 19 months-) as well as a fresh install of Win7 Ultimate (64-bit).

  I have the Toshiba site and updated 64-bit drivers as much as possible, including the BIOS to Mw10M520.ROM using winphlash64 downloaded on the net, the included winphlash (32 bit) of toshiba did not work as I have already installed Win7 (64).

  Incidentally, I always have problems with "Toshiba Password Utility monitoring" and the software "Driver Bluetooth software" provided by Toshiba to [http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/notebooks/satellite/a200/psafca-01h00j/download] - in the absence of "* Win7 64 * ' drivers I used the ' * Vista 64 *" drivers. Is this a problem?

  According to my system info:

  My CPU is * Intel(R) Core (TM) 2 CPU T7400 @ 2.16 GHz 2.16Ghz*

• Satellite A200 PSAFCA - serial number incorrect installation system tools

  Hello

  I have a model of Satellite A200 PSAFCA that I recently reinstalled Vista Ultimate on.

  I downloaded all the drivers the most recent & utilities Toshiba NZ (country of purchase), but the following utilities do not settle due a message "invalid serial number":

  * Toshiba Hardware Setup Utility *.
  * Toshiba Flash Cards Support utility *.
  * Speech from Toshiba System *.

  Any suggestions?

  Hello!

  A friend of mine has a similar problem with an incorrect serial number message. The reason was the laptop has been maintained before and technicians forgot to put the DMI information. Has returned to the authorized service provider and technicians has defined the right DMI information. After this no problems!

  For the Satellite A200 PSAFCA you can find all the drivers and tools the Australian Toshiba site:

  Akuma has already said that the added value package must be installed first!

• Satellite Pro 4600, I can hear a beep

  When I use my Satellite Pro 4600 to record and playback, I can hear a beep. How can I stop this?

  Yes, this can happen when you use a Satellite Pro 4600 to record sound via Microsoft Sound Recorder. A beep low but regular (and irritating) occur during playback. You are using Windows 98 to Windows 2000 or?

• Can satellite A200 (PSAFCA) - I upgrade the GPU?

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A200. PSAFCA-01K00J. It is the system bought in Australia around mid-2007. There are currently a processor Nvidia GeForce Go 7300 intslalled on the system graphics.

  Preliminary investigation which leads me to believe, there are limited options of upgrade for the laptop, but there seems to be a number of anomalies to lead me to think the upgrade may be at hand. For example.

  In my user manual, he described my gpu in the following way:

  model lnVidia GeForce Go 7300:
  128 MB external VGA DDR2 RAM (depending on the model you have purchased).

  The external Word I think fact now refers to the interface type. As some A200 Intel 258 MB marked as integrated Gpu (and I'm the average current integrated without possibility of upgrade). This offers as well the nVidia is not integrated and leads me to believe it's connection MXM and so editable / extensible.

  Another thing to back up this idea is software Nvidia located in the control panel includes a section on system information and she calls the PCI express X 16 bus. If I'm not mistaken refers to a normal PCIe - certainly editable location. However being a laptop they might have it Mobile and so Mobile PCI Express Module and I'm back to MXM with ability to upgrade.

  This is confirmed if he please, and are there toshiba fans that could lead me to a card apropriate - perhaps off the coast of the Nvidia tray or even a chance for a toshiba laptop later. at least 256 MB or better 512.

  I have ike using this laptop, never had a problem. just be to hang out, and given that I would not buy a new car every time that I ran out of gas, I don't want to buy a new computer, when I am more then happy with the one I have for all other functions.

  Thank you

  Hello!

  In my opinion it's not possible to change the graphics card. As far as I know the graphics chip is soldered on the motherboard.

  In addition, if the graphics card would be exchangeable I think than the motherboard or BIOS will not support the new graphics card. The point is that laptops are not favourable so upgrade as a desktop PC.

  Check this Toshiba document and think about it:

• Satellite A200 - install display driver

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A200 (PSAF6A 02Q01N) which has recently crashed after a Windows Vista downlaod. I managed to make a recovery disc and run it again, but now the resolution of the monitor is only available in 1024 x 768 or 800 x 600. That is why the screen is all tense and the resolution is terrible. I tell myself that I need to download and install a new driver and I think I found it. The firs ATI Display Driver listed on this page

  http://www.MyToshiba.com.au/support/notebooks/satellite/A200/psaf6a-02q01n/download?OS=15

  I downloaded it and guess I must run the installation of the BIN directory Manager. Can anyone confirm that it is correct?

  Thanks in advance,

  VIC

  Stand by. If I understand you right, you have this resolution problem after installation of operating system using original disk recovery facilities.
  I understood you right?

• Satellite A200 PSAFCA does NOT start

  Here's the story.

  I got this laptop Australian (A200 PSAFCA) that came with Vista, but like everyone else I can't stand Vista so I removed it.
  Tried to install XP and to my surprise XP installation has actually detected the hard drive and it reformatted no problem.
  Then starts copying files and the premiere it reboot restarts very well and then it crashes on start "TOSHIBA" logo screen then restarts automatically and goes on and on...

  There is not much I can do in the BIOS, and yes it detects the HARD drive in there.

  I'm so bored and even tried to install Vista on the lappy and omg... it won't detect the hard drive even for the installation program.

  WHATS WITH THAT! This is the first laptop I ever tried to format and I never thought it will be ridiculously difficult.
  Can anyone shed light on what I might try? I'm out of ideas.

  P.s anyone knows if re-formatting computers laptop Toshiba is out of scope of the warranty?
  Thank you guys.

  Hello

  I had similar problem with my Satellite A200. Enter the BIOS settings and the default value. Reboot the laptop and again use the CD of Windows XP Home edition installations.

• Satellite A200 - black screen of death

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite A200 PSAFCA-01K00J model. This model, I bought Harvey Norman in Australia, but I can't find any registration on the web site of current Toshiba or abandoned. This sux because I am looking for any bios updates available to address a recent black screen problem.

  The first time this has happened that I was able to reboot after removing the battery/cut the current to several times before its good. The next day, after an attempted works to install Kaspersky Anti-virus update the same problem... Power disconnected, removed, deleted drums (replacing the cylinder one and then the other to check the faulty ram memory cards) of ram and hard drive and then bled off residual tension with start button. Through this process several times before finally successful. I had to pass by it a few times since after restarts automatic windows updates, etc. I extracted the procedure to manually reset the bios by jumping it, but it's something I want to avoid doing this until I've exhausted all other options.

  Toshiba Satellite A200
  Model - PSAFCA-01K00J
  O/s - Vista
  Hard Drive - 160GB with 50 GB of free space remaining.
  System 32 with proccesors core duo. (intel)
  Bios Version/Date-phoenix Technology Ltd 5.20, 25/10/2007
  SMBIOS Version - 2.4

  Any idea of sourcing on the last correct bios or any other input gratefully appreciate it... :)

  > Black Screen Of Death
  What happen exactly when you start your laptop?

  By the way: I ve checked the download from Toshiba on http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/download page and can not find this old model of laptop. I don't understand that Toshiba to THE is some archives for old models like on the page of European support.

  Anyway, I don't think that BIOS is the reason for this behavior.

• Driver DVD WinXP for Satellite A200

  Please help people dear forum,

  I am running XP on Satellite A200.
  I went to the place on the net to download the driver for xp dvd.

  The DVD for Vista 64-bit driver is available.
  But I do not know if it is good to use on XP (32).

  Well...
  Just install the DVD for Vista 64 driver (for 32 sound not available) and my DVD player is still not visible.
  And I guess that moderators work for toshiba, so it's fair to wonder:
  Specific no reason why the DVD for XP driver is not available? Or a more frightening question: XP still supported by Toshiba?

  Very interested in fellow computer useful to receive the DVD for XP driver first.
  And also very interested in the Toshiba answer on my question about the XP support.

  Greetz,
  Nano

  Hello

  > The DVD for Vista 64-bit driver is available. But I do not know if it is good to use on XP (32).
  Sorry, but I didn t find the CD/DVD drivers. or for Vista 64-bit, 32-bit or XP.
  Could you please tell me this driver?
  Perhaps you are which means the DVD player?

  Anyway, the fact is that there are drivers for CD/DVD don t players. Microsoft operating systems (Vista, XP) are already equipped with these drivers and generally you n t need to install third-party drivers 3rd! The STRANGE should be recognized automatically by one of the OS.

  PS: To my knowledge, this is a user forum and I don t think you can find someone from Toshiba here anyway, the XP is certainly supported by Toshiba because the XP drivers are available on the page of the driver. So I see no serious reasons why XP should t be supported. You know

• Satellite A200 reporting screens not correctable hardware problem blue

  My model Satellite A200 PSAFCA-01H00J is blue screening and reporting of a non correctable hardware problem. I disconnected all devices, including the mouse.

  All tests of memory and the device driver may report any problems. I unplugged and reinsert the two memory chips.

  There has been no hardware or changes to software other than Windows to auto update.

  This machine runs on Vista SP1. I dug the following message: Root cause found Bugcheck 124 unknown parameters 0x0, 0x95f7c3f0, 0xb2000040, 0 x 800. MSDN Info for this can be found at

  Anyone know where I should look for this hardware problem?

  If you remove the second module of RAM is still blue screen?

• Question about the Satellite A200 bios password removal

  Hello.
  I own a Satellite A200 - 1 KB which has a password on startup and I would like to delete the password.
  I tried to get into the bios setup but I can't turn it off from there and I tried holding the ESC and hold left SHIFT to start but didn't work as well.

  If someone could help woul be great...

  Hello

  Unfortunately you won´t get here of secret advice on the deletion of bios passwords because the passwords were intended to protect a computer from unauthorized access. Thus, the password for the BIOS of your laptop is more often sunk that leads to the only solution:

  Contact an authorized service partner and let the button remove the password. But don't forget that you will be charged since the removal of the password of the BIOS is not covered by the warranty. Each manufacturer made this way, otherwise it would be easy to steal a machine, ask someone from a forum, and then use the stolen computer.

  You know what I mean? Here´s a link to find the closest available ASP in your country:
