• Satellite A205-S4577 - does?

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A205 s4577 for over a year now, and there is, while I was using internet, 4 months she just closed. After that, he not turn since then. There is no lights or anything, I tried to charge it for hours. I remember that earlier that day that I dropped the laptop a bed of a carpet.

  I think that did a lot of damage, because if there was no damage he showed right away, wouldn't it?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I m not an expert in computer science, but to me it sounds like a hardware problem. I think you should contact a service provider for help. Technicians can check your laptop.

  I can t imagine that s just a software issue because it doesn t turn on. Maybe it's a problem of the motherboard or the power on/off switch

• Satellite A205-S4577 - multicolored mobile lines on screen

  I have an A205-S4577 (Vista) and have had problems with this laptop for about a year. I tried this last year of troubleshooting but has not had time to go in depth and had to buy another laptop in the meantime. I'm back to try and solve this problem, and in the meantime, I found that now the battery is dead and the laptop works only when it is plugged.

  In any case, the problem started all of a sudden, I would like to open a session, start and after a short period (approximately 5 minutes) my screen would disappear and I would get a bunch of colourful lines on the screen and would force power off of the machine. I was able to operate in all Modes of security. I found Toshiba and Applications recovery disks / drivers and today attempted to restart the whole machine. I was off to a good start and then "poof" these boring but nice lines appeared! EU force the machine to stop because lines prevents you from doing anything else. Now I can turn on only machine, will get the 'Security Mode' option, then when I select one, the laptop goes to never never land. I was able to boot the laptop using the recovery disks, obtained as a screen that asked a selection (missing to fast to see what was requested) and then the appararurent lines again. Any suggestions?

  Lines appear in all colors, sometimes green and blue, other times red and blue, not a constant model. Any suggestions will be appreciated. P.S. I already opened the laptop and cleaned the fans who have little dust! The machine is about 3 years old and more

  Hi nskmartinez,

  For me, it sounds like a hardware malfunction or the other of these lines are caused by the internal monitor or the graphics card itself. Way simpler to check that connects to an external monitor. If the same phenomenon occurs on external monitor its problem of graphics card and the motherboard needs to be replaced.

  If you need spare parts, you can contact a service provider authorized in your country. Guys are able to order all the parts of Toshiba. In addition, they can help allows you to replace the parts if you are not familiar with the disassembly of the laptop.

  Sorry for this standard more or less answer but here to user s only forum and if it s really a hardware malfunction you need professional help to get the spare parts and replace them. In addition, you have already tried the recovery disk that must be always and work and if not-online hardware problem.

  If the same symptoms would be visible outside monitors so it s GPU related problem I mean the graphics card could be affected and because the GPU is a part of the motherboard, then entire motherboard must be replaced so the tech service guy could be good

• Satellite A205-S5880 (PSAE3U) downgrade Vista to XP - does not detect HARD drive

  Hi all
  I got this hair loss situation, I had a satellite A205 - S5880 (PSAE3U) and decided to downgrade to XP, I got all ready drivers for XP (I have the EMEA support site and the wireless from a Czech website), I have my windows XP SP2 g CD and I get after loading everything Since the CD that my HD is not detected or not recognized and it tells me to make sure I have connected (I know I do).

  After doing a search of loong on the web, I discovered I have need the drivers (or something like that) to my HD which is a Hitachi HTS542520K9SA00 ATA Device (200 GB, 5400 RPM, SATA). My bios won't let me put my SATA to IDE (or something like that) also to update and nothing, please I need my Windows XP CD to read my HARD drive, and I can take care of the rest (at least I think so, otherwise I'll ask again: D).

  I also found that I can watch my motherboard chipset for motherboard for my HD controller, it ' s (i think) a toshiba ILHAM v1.00 or Intel Crestline - GM GM965.
  Maybe this info also works: Intel ICH8M

  Hello!

  You will find hundreds of discussions here in the forum about this, if you install Windows XP and Vista from a Microsoft disc and the HARD drive can't be detected... So he s strange to read these questions again and again.

  However, to install Windows, you need the SATA drivers or let's say the Intel Storage Manager package. It contains the driver you need. You can then create a new installation using nLite [www.nliteos.com]
  Or look you at this Toshiba document: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9401AN0000R01.htm

  Good bye

• Some problems with Satellite A205

  I bought a Satellite A205 at the end of March.
  It has been in the shop more than six weeks time I've owned it.

  The motherboard has been replaced twice, the LCD once and once the touchpad.
  Repairman told me that over $2000.00 were spent fixing the computer $900.00.

  Can someone tell me what is Toshiba lemon policy and when it was decided to not put more money into a warranty repair?

  Hello

  It's really sad story and I can really understand that you're frustrated.

  It seems like you're one of those who had some bad luck with the laptop. :(
  But I have a Sat A200 (it's similar to A205) and everything works fine. No problem until now... I'm lucky :D
  Anyway... the guarantee is valid and everything should be done for free... So relax and don't worry ;)

  To my knowledge, books are covered by the standard warranty for 12 months and if you sign up on the page of Toshiba notebook you will get an additional one year warranty. Of course, you can also buy warranty extensions but please do not ask me for more details... I think that everything can be found on the page of Toshiba...

• I can't ' t retrieve my Satellite A205-S5843

  Hi, my name is Marisa.

  I have a Satellite A205-S5843, I bought 4 months ago but it was broken and the motherboard was exchanged. Now I'm trying to system recovery using the recovery DVD and it say the DVD is not for this model that I find the correct recovery DVD.

  I don't know if the problem is because there is something wrong with the operating system, or it could be because he has another motherboard, and I can't use original recovery DVDs more.

  I hope someone can help me, because I don't know too much about, trying to solve but I m really new about that.
  Thank you so much everyone.

  Good bye

  Hello MArisa

  Your laptop is one year international warranty and it can be repaired around this time.

  The technicians of course forgot to update the DMI information. Without this information, the recovery image can not identify the laptop and can not be used.

  Then please contact again and ask for DMI update. They know what they need to do.

  Good luck!

• Need drivers Windows XP for Satellite A205-S5851

  Hello
  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A205-S5851 with Windows Vista Home Edition... I want to fresh install win xp. but I don't have driver CD. So I searched and found this link

  http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/modelContent.jsp?modelFilter=A205-S5851&RPN=PSAE3U&category=&selCategory=3&MOID=1998 593 & os = & ct = DL & selFamily = 1073768663

  but I couldn't find any video or sound, and lan drivers for xp... my question is, in any other place where I can get it? or a set of software driver required for this model Toshiba satellite A205-S5851, something like a pack of CD... UUST as the original CD but for XP. ?

  and... What are the key drivers that I need to do my best work laptop. like sound, video, chipset, lan, wireless lan. .. all others. ???

  Thank you

  Of course, your laptop model is not fully supported for Windows XP Home edition.
  Another place for drivers? There's no other place where you can find the drivers for your laptop model. You have the laptop model US and it will appear on American support page only.

  What you can do is compare the material on your laptops and trying to find the similar model, but fully taken WXP supported and use these drivers.
  If you do not find the only drivers so you won't find any plan because your laptop is not supported for Windows XP Home edition.

  Yes, for an optimal working, you driver touchpad, audio driver, chipset, LAN/WLAN driver, driver video driver. S, I think, the minimum on the drivers that must be installed for optimal work.

• Satellite A205-S5804 - blue screen after installing XP

Installation is finished and after it is done XP load and there is this blue screen that appears as a fraction of a second and I'm unable to read and then restart the PC. Very frustrating.

  Toshiba Satellite A205 - S5804

  Hey,.

  Do you also have problems with the Toshiba Recovery disk or the Windows XP disc?

  The problem is probably related to the drivers SATA may have installed XP correctly when you change the HARD drive in the BIOS from AHCI compatible?
