• Satellite A30: Compatibility Intel 2200BG miniPCI WLAN

  I installed an Intel 2200BG (Toshiba part No.G86C0000X310) Wifi card in my Satellite A30. I tried to load a number of different versions of Intel drivers, but whenever I activate the driver of that laptop computer crashes. I've seen other messages indicating that they got this card works by pin 11 and 13 with masking tape, I tried this.

  Has anyone else seen and solved my problem?

  Hi Andy

  Before that you purchased this card did you check compatibility with your model of laptop with the cards?

  By the way: all laptops A30 aren't ready WLAN. For example, A30 - 514 is WLAN ready and compatible Wireless LAN card is PA3212U-1MPC. Check it!

• Satellite A30 PSA30E - BIOS does not recognize the HARD drive

  Hi all
  I have a Satellite A30 (PSA30E) and I start the computer. When I enter the BIOS it does not recognize the hard drive.
  Does anyone no what I can do?
  Is it possible to restore the BIOS?

  Thank you

  Hello

  You replaced the HARD drive by a new one or the BIOS don't recognize the old HDD?

  Usually if the laptop is not able to start and that the BIOS does not see the old HDD then I guess that the HARD drive is faulty.
  If the BIOS doesn't recognize the inserted new HARD drive and then either you ve bought is not compatible, or the size of the HARD drive is just too big.

  Please provide more info. You see error messages?

• A30 and intel 2200BG miniPCI adapter

  Hello!
  I read the same topics on this forum but have not found an answer.
  I installed the wifi (intel 2200BG) adapter to my A30 all seams OK, but he says hardware switch off the switch is on, but the green light stays off and the Wireless does not work.

  I found a tip to cover the 11 and 13 pins, made all the following instruction, but nothing happened. It still does not work.

  Any tips?

  Hello

  I think the best way to solve the problem of card Wifi is t contact Service partner by phone!
  Maybe they can tell you what you did wrong!

  I searched Toshiba knowledge base, but I can't find anything about creating a Wifi card!

  Sorry!

• Satellite A30: Card sound & Chipset driver problem.

  Hi all
  I'm about to get REALLY crazy! I would really appreciate if someone can help me...

  My story is:
  I lost all my CD recovery & pilot who gave me in 2004. But I had to format my pc this weekend due to many reasons of system (bugs, unable to connect to the net, etc.).
  My first step was to Toshiba site, I downloaded all kinds of drivers for Satellite A30. And I had XP Professional SP2 from my friend and installed it. But after completing all the facilities below is the result:

  (1) NO. SOUND :(

  2 points to mark on the 2 points that are a) multimedia sound controller and b) PCI Modem in Device Manager / other devices.

  (3) Chipset installation error message: Chipset Intel (r) utility installation requires platform chipsets supported by the supported operating system. Read the section of the system requirements in the Readme.txt for more information.
  So far I checked the forums my chipset has not been installed correctly, but when I try yo install the Intel chipset 895PE (csutil-sa30-xp - 5011015.zip) I downloaded download address http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com, it gives the error message and some people says to install the drivers in good order as, first install XP with SP1, and then install utilitt chipset, and then install SP2 etc... But it seems not to be easy for me...

  Really, I can repeat my FORMAT again, but in what order process...
  Thank you...

  Hello

  Just to inform that my problem has been resolved in itself :)
  I reformatted my laptop and installed new computer the original XP Pro SP2 by following the instructions.

  His problem was solved automatically, no installation utility chipset required...
  The noise problem was probably caused by lack of update Microsoft KB835221 for SP1 and KB888111 for SP2, which then was resolved with the XP of more recent origin...

• Satellite A100-784 - Intel PRO Wireless 3945ABG off randomly

  Hello

  I have Toshiba Satellite A100-784 with Intel PRO Wireless 3945ABG wireless adapter.
  Today I was working with my friend on some project connected on his wifi sharing internet connection on Toshiba Satellite A100-510.
  After a while I lose the internet connection and I see that this blue icon is no longer in the test system.

  I try to use Toshiba ConfigFree but it was impossible to open, so I try to open the network connection of the control panel and after a period of time the network connection has been accessible and I saw that this network adapter is disabled. I try to activate three times but nothing.

  After rebooting, everything was ok and wireless adapter is turned on and ready to use for the next 10 or 15 minutes.
  First disable comes after two hours. I use Windows XP SP 2.

  The problem is that I have to restart my computer everytime where I lose internet connection (WiFi is turned off automatically).
  Everything is blocked its very hard to access the settings of network or toshiba configfree

  Thank you

  Try this:

  Update the BIOS of the laptop
  Update driver Intel Wireless LAN
  Use static IP addresses, instead of dynamic (DHCP)
  Temporarily disable your firewall software
  Update the Firmware on your Access Point

• Satellite A100-495 - Intel 3945abg wireless network card cannot find wifi networks

  Greetings,

  I have some problems with networks wireless on my laptop Satellite A100-495.

  The problem is: my wireless adapter (intel / pro 3945abg) doesn't seem to find wireless networks. If I portable place very close to my router wireless (such as 1 m) - connection can be established. If I move away (~ 5 m)-no connection or 'very bad' quality and constantly broken. Other notebooks I've tried still have "very good" quality at the same range.

  This happens with other routers as well. And I can not any sign of wi - fi in my Uni (my colleagues have no problem with their machines).

  I tried to play up with some parameters. Reinstalled adapter. Downloaded the latest drivers. Nothing helps.

  A tip? Thank you in advance.

  Hello

  Something like that happened to me a long time ago.
  I used the Wlan configuration option to own Windows. For several months, I use the Intel Proset configuration utility to establish the WiFi connection!
  It works!

  In addition, I have disabled the power Wlan option in the Wlan card properties save and adjust the intensity of the signal at top. I remember, in the advanced properties, you can find the 802.11 option preamble. The value is Long and short on my laptop.

  Hey dude... Check it out.

• No power to Satellite A30 PSA30E

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A30 (part No. = PSA30E-00E5-EN) laptop and recently when plugged in, the battery is not, in fact he tell Chargers.

  When the laptop is turned off, if you plug the battery icon orange lights and charges of battery, but when you start the laptop to halfway through start orange icon battery turns off and the battery won't charge.

  If you start the laptop just using the battery once it is in place and ongoing enforcement if you plug the nothing happening for example the battery charge orange icon does not illuminate.

  The power is always on the laptop the screen stays on its setting of intensity, but the laptop turns off when the battery runs down to 0%.

  I removed the battery and tried power the laptop just using the power grid, but the laptop does not turn on.

  I got a new power adapter and it does not solve the problem and I even bought a new battery for your laptop but the problem still exists

  The only thing I found on the internet is that the connector where the connector plug AC power adapter will has known problems, but I can't find anyone who has a solution on how to fix it.

  Any ideas how to solve all the other ideas what wrong?

  > I have a new power adapter and it does not solve the problem and I even bought a new battery for your laptop but the problem still exists

  If the new battery and new AC adapter didn't solve this problem, then I think his untimely motherboard.
  Eventually it s power supply electronic malfunction or a similar problem.

  I doubt that you can remedy. In this case (in the worst case) the motherboard needs to be replaced and it would be a costly affair.

  What to say to boyfriend. I think that you could get in touch with the local ASP in order to test the motherboard or related parts.
  Then you should get more details abut the question and what parts are affected.

• Satellite A30 PSA30E - battery won't charge

  If it is the battery which batteries would be compatible with my laptop to replace and how do 2nd hand/battery cost these days for my laptop?

  My battery model number = PA3250U-1BRS
  K000002280

  I found a battery on a site that resembles a Toshiba Satellite A35 (don't remember if it's A30 or Pro A30) - looking at the Toshiba Satellite A35, it's the same as my Toshiba Satellite A30 it would be compatible?

  Thanks for your time...

  Hello

  Eventually it s a battery but problem is just a suggestion.
  I do not recommend buying a second hand battery because second hand battery will discharge a lot faster.
  In my opinion, you should buy a new one.

  I googled a little bit for PA3250U-1BRS and found a few deals online, it seems that you can get it for 50-60 euros

  Regarding the battery A35.
  I think that it should be compatible with your laptop. The A35 is a Toshiba US series (A30 is the European model) and it of very similar to A30.

• Satellite A30: For those inventive keyboard problem

  Hello

  My problem is that I spilled juice on my Satellite A30. Since MN then. keys on the keyboard do not respond. I think it has to do with the fact that the juice having disappeared left a sort of insulation under the buttons. I wonder if anyone can advise me on the following:

  1. How can I remove the keyboard off Satellite A30? The manual does not give an indication on it.

  2. is it possible to remove faulty buttons, clean the surface below them and put back them without any problem? I heard that once removed laptop keyboard buttons cannot be placed back correctly.

  3 should. what solution I use to clean the remains of juice? My only idea is to use some sort of soapy solution.

  4 wouldn't be allright just to put the keyboard without removing faulty buttons in a solution and keep it for a while until all the juice remains are taken away? The keyboard let completely dry and replace in place? Or, maybe there is a way to disassemble the keyboard in order to break the circuit so that it can be cleaned without worries?

  I hope you people help me get through this question cause I don't want to spend a fortune on a new keyboard, as people in the service center possibly won't bother to clean up my keybard and will just get away with ordering a new.

  OK, thanks for your ideas and consideration.

  Hello

  If the buttons just does not have the "n" and am ' ones, then you may be able to clean adequately without the need to disassemble your A30.

  First, you need to remove the covered buttons involved. To do this gently prising upward from the bottom edge of each button (use the SPACEBAR as a rest for a small flat blade so that you can lift buttons up. Once the keys are deleted (not to lose) you will be able to see the cantilever spring mechanism that makes electrical contact when you press it. Carefully clean the area with a small cotton swab (or even a small brush) and a lot of alcohol isoproyl (or an electrical contact, cleaning solution). I hope that this will restore the normal operation of the keys.

  To replace the top key locate top edge first and lower aid in position and apply progressive pressure the bottom of the key top until your feel/hear a 'click '.

  If all else fails, then you need to replace the keyboard, but fortunately, they are not too expensive (about £65 I remember well).

  Good luck

• Satellite M60 with Intel PRO Wireless 2200BG - no stable connection possible

  Hi, it is not possible to obtain a good connection with the Intel card and the latest driver from the homepage of Intel, even with all the other drivers, it is not possible. The Forums are filled with problems connecting with this card! I need a solution. Game online (World of Warcraft) is not possible because the ping (Laency) is 5000ms, and server kicks all the time, with other laptops without problems.

  Why!
  When I turn off energy-driver settings, it gets easier, but still terrible connection. Intel or Toshiba do something! Tried already weeks solve this problem with all the possible drivers and settings in Windows XP SP2.
  Other users of the Intel card have the same problems.

  Hello, Robert

  You are absolutely right on this Intel WLAN card. I checked some books forum and many other users have similar problems with different laptops (different producers but the same map).

  I noticed that this card make a trouble with different routers. A friend of mine has Satellite M40 with the same card and has no problem with the Netgear router, but with my Belkin one drops the connection permanently. We did the test with US Robotics router and the connection was not good enough.

  Unfortunately, there is nothing to see. The only solution is to swap the WLAN card and built the other one (Agere or Toshiba one).

  Good luck!

• Satellite A30 (PSA30E - 1896C-EN) what wireless card

  Hi all
  Having rebiult my A30, with your help, I'm looking to install a wireless card. The user manual says: "Mini-PCI card. But does not specify the size (and yet some providers seem to have different sizes for the mini-PCI). Furthermore, by reading the existing threads, they seem to suggest keeping an eye on "n" standard (forthcoming).

  Can you describe the key points that I have to watch out for when buying this wireless card for this laptop, please?

  With gratitude, Robin

  > User manual says: "Mini-PCI card. But does not specify the size (and yet some providers seem to have different sizes for the mini-PCI).

  Mini-PCI slot is a standard interface supported by all hardware manufacturers.
  There are no sizes different mini-PCI! There could be a mini-PCI or PCI slot.
  However, the user above posted a WLan card reference number. I recommend googoling for this issue in order to find the right wireless network card.

• Wireless driver does not work on Satellite A30-PSA30E

  All the ideas that is suitable for the above model driver, I downloaded about 5 drivers wireless on the site, but none seems not to work.

  What do you mean with the driver does not work?

  Do you have an error message or what?

  Have you checked if your laptop supports a minPCI wireless network card?

  If your mobile phone does not support an internal WLan card then you will not be able to install the WLan card driver :) very simple

• A30 and Intel 2200BG working now with Scotch!

  I searched and read and did not believe what I read, but with the help of a little Scotch tape on terminals 11 and 13, I'm running.
  3 weeks I have fought this, support Intel only responded once to tell me to download the latest version of SW, which I had already said, I've had.
  By mistake, I was under the impression that the assignment of pins for Mini PCI cards had been agreed and that it was the norm. What is rocking the boat Toshiba or Intel? My first impression is Intel as a search for "2200BG" throws up a lot of problems and not all models of Toshiba.
  However, I suggest anyone who has problems with the Mini PCI 2200BG card try first the fuse high-tech method of tape adhesive tape.
  BTW the wireless switch or fn + F8 still does not work.

  Hi Alison

  The fact is that this Intel card is part of the Centrino concept and many laptop producers use this to own units. A few days ago that I've que j' ai ete been I electronic store and I looked into many notebooks (various manufacturers) and almost all device manager have this card.

  The fact is that the producers of the laptop cannot do much. In my opinion, Intel should test and verify the functionality first. If you visit the Intel download page there are a lot of new drivers for this card and I believe that trying to Intel to make it better. We'll see.
