Satellite A200 start Age of Empires

Hello world

My daughter has a Sat A200 1.8 GHz 3052 available RAM, installed Direct X 10, more older version 9 to run older games. Under Vista Home Premium with an ATI Radeon Graphics Processor 0 chip x 9581 (Mobility Radeon HD) 2600.

I get an error at the launch of Age of Empires II and I have the chart cannot initialize and check the compatibility of card and the video driver with Direct Draw.

I did, Direct sampling is enabled, the ATI driver has been updated, windows also updates and the game still gives me the same message.

Do you have a registry clean after using the game of the demo, which also did not work.

I got this game on two other laptops, a new Compaq and a 12 months, as well as old Acer laptop on my fully equipped acer desktop computer to vista. The only problem I have is with the Compaq laptop screen resolution should be set back to normal after the games, but it works very well. I don't know why the Toshiba Satellite is to give so much trouble.

Can someone enlighten me? Please...

Hello

> the ATI driver has been updated
And what ATI drivers you have installed exactly? Since the site of Toshiba or other drivers?

AFAIK for Age of Empires II are some fixes available. Have you installed them? As far as I know you can download on the Microsoft Web site.

You can also try starting the game in compatibility mode. That's why I choose Windows XP.

  • Re: Satellite A200 - start with BSOD

    Hello.

    I have a Satellite A200 which I had for about 18 months. I recently installed a burning software and as soon as it was completed a blue screen was displayed telling me the computer had been shut down to prevent damage.

    It then restarts automatically and I try to log on, but after about 15 seconds, it goes the same blue screen and reboots again. I tried booting in safe mode but that doesn t help.

    I m not really competent computer so I m not sure how to proceed.

    If you have any advice really id appreciate it.

    I think that if you can also boot into safe mode, you need to reinstall Windows. He s strange if your computer only shows BSOD after installing the burning software, but however, I think that there is no other way.
    Do you have what burning software installed?
    Maybe it s a virus and is not a problem of the burning software.

    So to use the recovery disk and reinstall Windows. The HARD disk is reformatted completely then backup your data first if you can put the HARD drive in an external enclosure.

  • Satellite A200 - STARTING problems, freezes on the connection of the power adapter

    My 3 YO A200 (PSAF3A-08202D has developed a problem with starting.
    I can start on battery power with WINDOWS VISTA BUSINESS (after 10 attempts, but freezes immediately when the power adapter is plugged in.)
    Display sometimes boots wide-screen, but mostly freezes before windows welcome.

    When running, the battery produces about 1 to 2 hours before a complete evacuation.
    When executing a battery, computer freezes when I plug Charger AC/DC immediately and going with my A100 charger as an alternative.

    Initial problem was a faulty hard drive and super hot air flow due to fluff the cooling block fan.
    Tech replaced original 120G HDD with 500 G and reloaded at the factory. works well for 3 months, then started with the same problems so conclude original disk HARD was just a secondary issue.

    So maybe fixed I overheated components on the motherboard. Reset of data cards initially fixed a problem starting but is gradually degraded.

    Reading through the forums seems that there is a huge amount of these laptops with similar issues. Is this a design flaw, like my other Satellite A100 is solid as a rock. All forums, which suggests resetting the cpu is running slow or be disconnected seem to be temporary repairs. Boot in safe mode and reset the default settings have no effect.

    A suggestion that a capacitor is at fault seems to be the fix is valid but which involves specialized tools is not available locally. Local agent of Harvey Norman for Toshiba are best part of unnecessary because they can send in Australia from Toshiba. Machine has been close to $2000 and is now worth Zip.

    I am unable to do anything with this machine, as all the ways of upgrading or resetting calls for AC power available and running.

    I'm about to do radical things and hope that this forum can enlighten us.

    Hi Mickaël

    You might be right. It seems that the motherboard is affected.
    Don't know why but higher temperature can still affect the internal parts.
    The temperature may increase if cooling fans n t working correctly. For example dust or debris leads to a higher temperature because cooling air cannot circulate properly.

    I have to clean my laptop's cooling grilles from time to time using a jet of compressed air. This allows to keep the temperature at the lower level.
    Of course the internal temperature is not always a reason for portable computers hardware malfunction equipment can begin to malfunction as always in an other products too: TVs, cars, game consoles

    I bought an extended warranty for my laptop, also for my LCD TV mercy always if a high-end product begin to malfunction and in the case of a warranty claim, the fault can be fixed free of charge.

  • Satellite A200 starts - PXE error message

    Hello

    I have a Sat A200 woo.
    The problem started when my phone froze when I download something and I turned it off using the power button.
    But now when I turn it on it comes up with this execution environment (pxe) boot before and continues to say that the media are missing and check the cable?

    Can someone tell me how to fix it

    Thank you

    Hello

    You mean this message?

    + PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable.
    + PXE - M0F: exit Intel Boot Agent. +

    This means that the operating system is not found possibly the HARD drive is dead, or the operating system has not been installed correctly.

    I recommend to check first if the HARD drive is seen in the BIOS. If it isn't then you should replace the HARD drive and should reinstall the operating system.

  • Satellite A200 starts more (Vista preinstalled)

    Hello

    Turned on my laptop today. Has passed the screen toshiba but then nothing. Did the following:

    1 switched OFF and hit the function (2) button on the screen Tosihiba.
    2. restore default - Save and Exit values.

    Then switched on again and now I get a double beep and a cautionary: 0251 checksum of CMOS bad - default configuration system used.

    Is there anyway that I can get the thing to boot. I saved most of my data and I did the recovery disks, but there are a couple of files stiil there that I would have.

    The laptop came with Vista pre-installed. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    This problem can be the cause of various reasons. Maybe is CMOS battery fault or weak.
    What you can try is to connect your laptop to the power supply and leave at least 24 hours. Now battery CMOS will be loaded and then try to check if the laptop starts properly.

    If this message will be shown again and again I fear, you need professional help of Mr. contact Toshiba service and ask for help. I imagine that they will replace the CMOS battery.

    By the way:

  • Satellite A200 - eblib.dll is not designed to run on windows

    My laptop Satellite A200 started giving me warnings saying * eblib.*dll is not designed to run on windows or it contains an error.
    The file has been deleted with combofix c:\programdata\xp.

    I need this file?

    I checked with McAfee and Alvira antivirus plus several spyware and the laptop seems to be clean.
    I had the same problem with odbc32.dll. Replaced by a copy from another computer vista laptop successfully.
    This file is needed?

    The only info I have found says he is Compal Electronics, but does not say what he does or what component it uses.
    Could someone send me a copy of this file, please!

    Help
    Thank you

    Hello

    I discovered that eblib.dll belongs to EBLib of COMPAL ELECTRONIC dynamic links library.
    To be honest I have never heard of this software on Toshiba laptops so I think you can remove or uninstall the system.
    Also clean the registry with CCleaner several times

  • Satellite A200 crashing when moved or when the CPU usage is too high

    Well so recently my Toshiba Satellite A200 started crashing everytime I have to pick up the laptop or run any processes taking the CPU up to 100% usage.

    This means essentially no rendering 3D games and no Photoshop or current iTunes running at the same time, etc. Here are the best even if it happens only when the laptop is plugged and not when only battery power. I tried to use another AC adapter, and I cleaned the hard drive for a new installation of Windows 7 that never solved the problem. I even went so far as to update the BIOS.

    I am not quite determined that he is just a hardware problem, but I was wondering if anyone had suggestions about which party can act up on me. As I said still works like a dream when running on battery power.

    > Here is the kicker if this happens only when the laptop is plugged and not when only battery power.

    The energy saving switch to another profile, using the AC adapter.
    Maybe you can try to change the speed of treatment at a lower level and could increase the cooling method parameters in the energy saving profile when the AC adapter is in use.

    Otherwise, it could be a hardware problem and in this case, you will need a help of ASP.

  • Troubleshooting with wireless - got a Satellite A200

    Well if someone could help me somehow, I'd greatly appreciate it.

    I have a Satellite A200 started just now sent me problems with the wireless connection. I'm not that great with computers but I know how to follow instructions and the basics quite well. I changed my router recently, its new with Netgear and that now I had problem with the wireless connection. Main computer works fine, USB wi - fi Flash drive works fine on another computer. Only the problem with my Toshiba. It identifies my address with full signal. I put the network key, it starts the connection, it starts acquiring network address and it fails.

    Then it starts to get into this loop, trying and failing. I went into network connections, try to fix it. He begins to repair and it does not work too.

    Am I missing something? I don't know where to start. I tried everything that was suggested under Configfree. But I still can't be the source of the problem.
    Any ideas? Thank you, in advance.

    > I tried to remove the security password and I am able to connect but as soon as I put it on, it's back to the same model?

    In my view, the case is clear, it seems that the WiFi encryption or password is wrong. If the router uses only 802.11 G then you must assign the card settings Wlan 802.11 G too!
    In addition, you must use exactly the same type of encryption (WPE, WPA, WPA2, etc.) for the router and wireless network card!

    PS: Don't forget that WLan driver is up to date...
    Here you can find the latest WLan Atheros, Intel and Realtek WLan drivers

  • Satellite A200 - is something overheating?

    Hello

    I use Vista on an A200-TH7

    About a week, the fan on my Satellite A200 started to turn very hard, and Windows to hang on a minute later. I cleaned the radiator and the fan, but the problem was still there, so I decided to restore the laptop to factory settings, but that didn't help either. However after update my Intel chipset drivers, the laptop ran fine for about a day, but today the fan has started to act up again. It's much better that before, since Windows does not crash, but the noisy fan always worry. Is something overheating?

    I put the laptop to sleep for 5 minutes after the fan started to turn very hard, and he was fine after I took over, which leads me to think its overheating, but I can't be sure. CPU usage was<10%, and="" speedfan="" said="" the="" cpu="" temperatures="" were="" around="" 52c="" (it's="" usally="" around="" 46c="" when="" i'm="" idle="" or="" browsing).="" i'm="" also="" using="" a="" laptop="">

    Any help would be appreciated ~

    Hello

    This strange s boyfriend but maybe the fan is broken and doesn't work correctly. Perhaps, it must be replaced.

    In addition, I think that the thermal grease should be renewed between the heatsink and the CPU. This brings a cooling performance too.

    In my opinion the best way would be if you ask a technician for help laptop. They can check the materials and renew the thermal grease.

  • Don't play age of Empires 3 on the Satellite A200-1DN

    Hello
    I have a Satellite A200-1dn with 1.5 GB of ram and an intel gma 950 / 945gm express chipset family.
    The problem is that the age of empires 3 requires a minimum of 64 MB of video ram. Mine is 32 MB.
    I've heard from the dvmt (dynamic video memory technology) and I was wondering is anyone know how to change it to the max?
    I heard that you can change CMOS, anyone know how to acess cmos? My bios version is 1.30. max dvmt may go up to 224 MB of video ram, that would be great.

    Please answer soon, thx

    Hello

    Generally, a user must read the MANUAL before asking these questions. But while you already here I can tell you how to access:

    Press F2 right after the power of the machine (when you see the toshiba logo) whereas there should be the option you want / need.

    Did you already check if you have the latest version of the bios installed? It would be a good idea to do so:

  • 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.
