• Satellite A200 - fan works too

  Hello

  I will present my problem briefly to you in the hope that I can find a solution.

  I work with recording music. My Satellite A200 can handle the processor high and all the rest. I'm really very happy.

  But the fan works just too well even when CPU is not used much. I installed The Ultimate Troubleshooter (excellent software) in order to eliminate unnecessary software or process. My RAM is 73% free, low 0-10% CPU and my fan speed is measured at 47 degrees Celsius. My hard drive is 33 degrees Celsius. Very low.

  The boring bit, is that my fan is behaving intermittently, but even when nothing is really happening, and the temperature is still very low. I have another laptop to compare to, which is quiet and peaceful in the other corner of the room and only takes action when I activate several operations at once. I wish my Satellite to behave in a similar way.

  I cleaned the fans today, and a lot of dust came out. But still the fan curve. I tried to take control using SpeedFan 4.43, but it does not work. I don't see anywhere in the BIOS how I could control the speed of the fan.

  I need to find a solution, ideally one that doesn't involve buying a new fan, or disassemble the computer. Since the temperature is right at all times, I guess it's just the BIOS programming for constant speed activity that must change. Any suggestions? It would be appreciated.

  All the best, Shlomi.

  How did you do that? Did you follow the instructions?
  How to clean a Toshiba laptop cooling system?

  There are different reasons for activity high fan and dust that blocks the fan, the thermal paste should be renewed, etc..

  Fact is that the fan will be controlled automatically to protect the equipment from overheating. What you can do is chancing the cooling method in Windows power management. I put t know what operating system you use but on Vista and Windows 7, open the power management options, change the parameters of the plan, cooling method. You can change between maximum performance and battery optimized. I would recommend setting the optimised battery.

  Also, check the BIOS version. If you have an older version, probably thermal management has been changed with a new version of the BIOS. Update the BIOS that you find on the official website of Toshiba.

  Finally, and especially if your laptop probably has a few years, that the thermal compound must be renewed. This is why I would contact an authorized service provider that will apply the correct thermal grease and also the laptop must be disassembled. Not so easy

• Re: Satellite A200 Touchpad work scroll dosnt after installing Win 7

  Hello

  You must install a compatible touchpad driver.
  Choose the Satellite L500 on the European driver Toshiba page.
  Here you will find 2 touchpad Win 7 drivers; Alps Electric and Synaptics.

  Both must be installed!

• Satellite A200: Recovery work does not correctly

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba A200 and attempted to retrieve the default settings using the provided Toshiba CD recovery. I can't make it work...

  Initially, the recovery seems to work very well, and it copies the files from the first recovery CD (1of2). Then, I get a message "Please insert next media and press OK to continue" and the drawer opens. When I insert the second CD (2of2), he turns as if you're trying to read, then opens the tray and again gives the message "Please insert next media and press OK to continue.

  I thought maybe it was a doubtful CD2, but trying to retrieve from the hard drive partition without using the CD (i.e. by pressing 0 at the start and following instructions for out-of-box state) I get the same message. Surely if I get back from the HARD drive so that I would not insert any media?

  I have tried several times and get the same message. In addition, sometimes after inserting CD2, I get the message "error copy of file or folder.» Cannot copy PREINST001: data error (cyclic redundancy check). »

  I would be eternally grateful for any help on this one!

  Euan.

  Believe me a virus cannot affect the recovery procedure.

  First the HARD disk will be formatted before the OS will be installed and that would wipe out the virus from the HARD drive.

  Second, a virus cannot affect any 3rd party, no writable media

  It is therefore something different

• Satellite A200 keyboard works not properly

  I had my Toshiba since last May and have always had a problem with typing capital Mr. every time I do it and it happened I typed may, it moves all the following letters anywhere in the previous text. Touch typist I find it particularly annoying as it's often two or three paragraphs before I noticed it happened. It is very very annoying because I have to type a lot slower that I normally would alos.

  Someone else has experienced this specific problem? If so, what can you do to solve it? I tried to use a test version of Windows 7, but also other types of software am so confident enough, it is not a software problem.

  Looks like you need a new keyboard. Go to a SPA and ask for a quote.

• Built in web cam stopped working - Satellite A200

  The webcam integrated on my Satellite A200 stopped working yesterday and I don t know why. I have not recently installed new software, but it is not recognized when I use Skype or any other program. When you try to use the camera, an error says no camera is recognized or it's off.

  I uninstalled the driver and reinstalled several times but it didn't help.
  Please, does anyone have any ideas? (Vista OS).

  Hello

  Sorry, but it is not easy to say what the problem is here. I recommend you to roll back OS to an earlier time using System Restore tool. I'm sure that you'll be able to reuse cam.

  I cam on P200 and use it with Skype without any problem. I really hopr you will be able to solve this problem.

  Good luck!

• Driver for Chicony USB 2.0 cam does not work on the Satellite A200

• Satellite A200 - denying power to the top

  Hi, we have a Satellite A200 that worked very well until the last time we it turned off (from the start menu). Now he simply refuses to be able to save - seeing power line turn on once it's in, but that's all.

  Any tips?

  Thank you

  Joseph

  I have a tip for you, but I m not very good if it will work.
  However, it s worth a try.

  First, remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter.
  Then, you need to wait some time (1 hour).

  Then connect the power adapter to the computer (try it with & without the battery)
  Crossed their fingers and try to turn on the machine.

  Good luck

• Satellite A200 - USB Ports stopped working

  Hallo, I am DESPERATE for help, please.

  I have a Toshiba laptop Satellite A200 series with 32-bit Windows.

  My USB ports give me major problems.

  I use a USB Internet Modem on multiple computers and it works fine on all computers, including Toshiba.

  A month earlier, Internet USB would suddenly and constantly disconnect itself from the Internet, when I use it in the USB one. When I use USB port two, he recorded no more. The port does not have the device.

  Two USB ports work well when used by other USB products.

  I had always used Internet USB into the USB port, with a cooling for my laptop fan, USB 2 port. Now, when I insert the cooling fan, USB Internet disconnects and will not register, at least I have remove fan, remove and reinsert the USB Internet.

  I did the following:

  1. start an anti-virus
  2 uninstall, re-install and update all the drivers for the USB, chipset famlies, Internet Modem ports, EVERYTHING.
  3. I checked with my Internet provider, the problem lies in my PC, not them.

  I don't know what to do, I'm tired.

  Help, please!

  Now, when I insert the cooling fan, USB Internet disconnects and will not register, at least I have remove fan, remove and reinsert the USB Internet.

  I think that it is a problem of USB power.

  The USB 2.0 port provides 500mA, and in some cases more than USB ports can be connected to the same power supply to the motherboard.
  In case the USB device connected (in your case fan) would need more than 500 ma, it could be that other USB devices do not work correctly.
  I recommend you go to Device Manager and select the properties of USB controller.

  The last "Power Management" tab contains the option to turn off the device to save power.
  This option should NOT be checked. It should be disabled.

  Check it out.

  Hello, Mona

  It is not easy to say what the problem is here, but to have good working OS with all Toshiba tools and utilities, it is important to install all the stuff the order of good facilities. Visit the Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads and choose your model of laptop PSAE3E and check the document Instructions of facilities.

  Simply install (available on the download page) all listed stuff in order exact facilities.
  After having done that, everything should work well.

  Just a question: what do you mean with volume with the Fn key? Do you hear the silent box with FN + ESC?

• Some keys no longer work on Satellite A200-196 after Windows 7 update

  Hi all, I've just upgraded computer laptop of my partner (a Toshiba Satellite A200-196) to Windows 7 after you initially install Windows XP on it (it came with Vista).

  After the XP update, I noticed that some keys were not working. I don't remember the process that I used to solve the problem, but the difficulty that I did, and they were all soon works perfectly. So this is a software problem and not material. I think he might have something to do with the FN key - but I can't be sure.

  Now, I just upgraded the same machine and I have exactly the same problem. Keys that don't work are Backspace, O, P, F, H, K and L.

  Can anyone help please? I tried to reinstall Win7 and the problem is still there.

  Thank you very much

  Andy

  > The keys that don't work are Backspace, O, P, F, H, K and L.

  These keys have nothing to do with the missing software.
  Indeed, the function key (FN key) needs a Toshiba utility particular installation / software to make it work, but the keys Backspace, O, P, F, H, K and L are common keys on the keyboard that don t need no special software.

  That's why I think that the problem is hardware related: simple keyboard malfunction.
  I guess that all of these keys work correctly if you sign in and use the external USB keyboard.

• Built in camera Chicony USB no longer works on laptop Satellite A200

  All of a sudden, the built-in in my laptop Satellite A200 Chicony USB webcam has stopped working - it was going very well about 6 weeks ago, but now it's as if he has actually disappeared from the laptop. The camera does not even on devices such as equipment manager - there is no single category of imaging devices (unless I am also connected to our printer/scanner). It is also not displayed in 'scanners and cameras' folder in the control panel. But the software (Toshiba Camera Assistant software) is still there. Weird.

  When I start the computer first, or at other times try to start the camera, an error message appears that says:
  * "webcam driver open fail. Restart the computer or the camera. "

  Before you tell me to download and reinstall the drivers, let me tell you what I "ve tried so far:"
  1 restart the computer (obviously)
  2 downloaded the driver for my model on this site and variously has tried to repair, replace and finally uninstalled and reinstalled the. IT IS NOT THE DRIVER!
  3 unplugged my wireless USB mouse and restart the computer (I read on another thread that it sometimes interferes with the camera)
  4 tried to get the computer looking for new hardware - he couldn't find it.
  5 tried a system restore, where it was linked to a recent update - I tried this using three different restore points system, and none of them could not be completed.

  Help! necessary technical assistance
  Thank you

  All that you have done is just.

  In all this history it's strange this webcam is not listed in Device Manager.
  In my opinion, you should do a final test to check the operation of the equipment, if you want to install the OS by using recovery DVDs.

  With own factory and OS preinstalled settings, you can check the operation of the equipment and see if the cam will work or not.
  If the problem will be the same I'm almost sure it's related to the faulty webcam.

• What thermal paste works well for Satellite A200?

  Hello

  I have the problem of heat for months. I have tried serval OCZ Freeze extreme conductivity compound thermal times there worked in the first week. But the second week, it became worse and worse until the laptop could not start. Someone has suggestions thermal in which the brand name paste works fine for Satellite A200?

  Thanks in advance,

  Hello

  I didn't change the thermal paste on my laptop Toshiba still but on my desktop computer, I use Arctic Cooling MX-3. I also read some tests on the Internet on the thermal fat and MX - 3 is still a better. Grease thermal OCZ is also good but the Arctic Cooling surpasses the OCZ.

  In addition, it is also important to clean the surface of the heatsink and processor. So, I can recommend the ArctiClean cleaning kit. Use Google to find some online shops where you can buy it. If you can ensure that all of the old thermal grease is removed properly.

  Good bye

  I think you mean the FN keys; Well, you need to install the VAP (value added package) and Flash memory card Support utility. Both can be selected from the Satellite L500 series too. I ve the same specifications and downloaded the drivers that have been released for L500.
