Satellite A30 very noisey with the deaf and the rattling noise!

26 months now, whenever I have record music or view a page on the internet with a lot of images I can hear the deaf allsorts and clicking on (sounds I think comes before the disk drive) I don't think that the computer is slower, but on a few occasions the thud happens and im convinced something inside will die and when his snap sounds like an internal part broke. all said that it doesn't always ALL ADVICE or HELP?

Hello

Like Stefan said, sounds begin because of certain activities of HARD drive. It is a normal question, but if sounds become stronger, then you should take care. It could be a HDD headcrash. So you should always back up your data and important files if you n t want to lose.

  • Very slow internet connection on Win 7 on SSD, but works very well with the OS on the HARD disk and the mode safe on SSD

    Original title: network very slow connection on the current installation of Windows?

    So my situation is that I have two disks (SSD and HDD) who both have a Windows installation.

    Because this SSD is an I got free and is in used condition, I left my copy of Windows 7 intact on my mechanical failure of the SSD drive.

    Now the question is, my internet connection is very, very poor, unless I run in safe mode, or the installation on my mechanical drive.

    I use a wired connection, and our connection at home is limited to 120/10 mbit/s, while I have 5/10 at the most.

    I tried to replace the LAN drivers of my motherboard (MSI FM2-A85XA-G43) using both the driver disc that was bundled with my motherboard, Device Manager and the official site of MSI, I also checked my entire system using Malwarebytes, which detected 7 threats and were abducted, nothing helps.

    I also tried the DNS which did nothing either of hot flashes. Now notice what computer of my brother is also connected and works well.

    Now as I type this, I discovered that my speed has suddenly got stable again out of the blue, but I'm skeptical it will remain, so I still want to ask what is / was going on here.

    Thank you for your time.

    Sorry for the late response here, I've been very busy with the developments in the last days and completely focused on it.

    More than a week has passed since the problem disappeared as if by magic, and so far I don't see the signs of what is going on again.

    I think that the problem has passed away now, but if it arises again I will probably update this.

    Thanks for all the suggestions and your time in this issue.

  • Satellite A30: HDD size after the recovery procedure and Defrag

    I have a Satellite A30 and just did a complete reinstall from the recovery of the product disks. My question relates to the amount of disk space hard should be resumed aftre reinstall it.
    My hard drive is 4.95 full GB according to the procedure that is much higher than I expected.

    Also, after reviewing the reader with Defragmenter I seem to have twice taken up training with Greens, unmovable files like Blue contiguous files. Unmovable files is there and if not how to I remove them?

    It's where I guess that extra hard disk space is lost when it is lost?

    Thank you

    Hello

    It's not easy to say exactly how much space should be taken after the recovery procedure.
    I have so much that I know on the recovery CD, you will find the whole operating system Windows XP, driver Toshiba and utilities as well as additional software like OneNote, WinDVD, etc.
    This additional software could take as much space on the disk outside the OS.

    Blue not moveable files belong to the Windows operating system, and as a result, the files are placed together.

  • Satellite C850 - found problems with the networking and the FN key

    Hey everybody,

    I work on a Satellite Toshiba C850, that my parents recently bought and spin in a certain number of questions.

    (1) wireless won't connect to my network. Have done the following: verified by connecting on two other computers, reset the router, the open network, reset the map, reinstalled the realtek drivers, checked the settings in the networking of Toshiba Utilities. End result is he's going to try, and fail. Wired LAN works fine.

    (2) FN key does not work. Have you checked the region and it is OK, have tried to use the Flash cards - no change, checked with the screen keyboard and can check the FN key does not register.

    I noticed that the first problem is common, but there are obvious positive results. If anyone can offer any assistance, I would appreciate it a lot.

    Before you begin to discuss your problems can you please tell us what OS you are using?
    Are you using the original OS that you got with your laptop? I mean original recovery image has been tested and works correctly, with the factory settings that all should especially the FN keys.

    1 / What do you mean with refusing? your WLAN is visible for your laptop?

    2 / if there is problem with the feature keys FN and you use Win7 try please reinstall extra package from Toshiba.

  • Satellite Pro C650D - problems with the audio and game controllers

    Hello

    I recently had problems with my microphone and speakers/headphones and game controllers.
    Sometimes the microphone stops working when on Skype, for example, but most of the time works fine, once again, when I restart the pc.

    Stakeholders sometimes still work when I connect headset.
    Some of the sounds are still coming through the speakers while some coming through the headphones.

    I have a usb game controller which also did not work everything properly.
    If I assign buttons in the program that they do not work in the game.

    All these devices are in Device Manager in a group that makes me think it's sort of annoying update doubtful that messes with them.

    Any body have similar problems or know what to do better?

    See you soon

    Hello

    Can you please send some details on the laptop model and the system you are using?

    With regard to the issue of sound/mic:
    > The microphone sometimes stops working when on Skype, for example, but most of the time works fine, once again, when I restart the pc.

    Are you talking about internal microphone or external? This only happens using Skype?
    In your case I would test the microphone using different applications to make sure that is not a Skype related issue.

    > Yet sometimes the speakers work when I connect headset.
    I recommend this thread:

    The user has had a similar problem, but this phenomenon was linked to the Realtek HD Audio Manager settings.
    She wrote:

    I put t think its problem of laptop in my opinion, you must make sure that the controller is compatible with the games you play and also recommended to check some info provided by the manufacturer of the game controller.

  • Re: Satellite A500 - need help with the FN key and Toshiba programs

    Hello

    The fn key Eco and other buttons specialized such as the one that opens Windows Media Player have stopped responding on my PSAM3A-03P00E A500 running Windows Vista. I can always change the brightness of the screen with the FN key, but no menu appears at the top of the screen.

    Also Toshiba programs that are intended to be run at the start as PC Health Monitor are not auto start, even if they are enabled in the Configuration (msconfig) system.
    The Bluetooth Manager however initially runs upward.

    I have blue screen errors, but they are not a problem since I have updated the BIOS to 1.5 and uninstalled Zonealarms.

    See you soon

    Hello

    Try reinstalling the additional package of Toshiba. AFAIK, this utility is responsible for these functions.

  • Satellite A30 213: broken in the power supply pin

    I have so many problems with this.
    I'd rather put it in the trash than to fix it, but unfortunately I have important documents that I have not saved.

    Basically, the PIN into the Jack of the laptop is broken and I can't be able to my laptop and my battery is running out of power

    The battery is in the battery-compatible A30 - 213 in the A30 714?

    And someone has other solutions?

    Please answer as soon as possible

    Hello

    First of all a few words about the battery.
    If I m not wrong not the Satellite A30 213 uses the same battery as the A30-714.
    Therefore, you should be able to use the same battery in both units A30.

    With regard to the question on another solution.
    Well, there is only one real solution. The power supply needs to be replaced.
    I m not sure if it s only plugged or soldered on the map. However, I recommend you contact the ASP in your country for assistance.
    This should be always replaced by a mobile technician because the dismantling procedure is very delicate and difficult.

    Best regards and good luck

  • What can I do to make the Satellite A665-S6086 run with the new memory?

    I was able to update the BIOS for my Satellite A665-S6086 by updating 2.30 on CD burning. I have Windows 7 64 bit. I needed to update the BIOS, because I upgraded my RAM/memory of 2 GB (4 GB total) two cards two cards of 4 GB (8 GB total).

    My question now is when I start my computer with the new RAM/memory (two cards that are KTT-S3BS / 4G Kingston DDR3 1333 MHZ SODIMM SGL RANK), it freezes on the screen from Windows startup. Then when I hold the power button to shut it down and restart it, it wants to start using Windows repair but then crashes again. When I put in the memory of the old man and he start up, it starts the Windows repair and runs normally.

    What can I do to make my computer run with the new memory?

    I thank very you much in advance!

    What you can do?
    Buy an another RAM modules that are fully compatible with the laptop.
    It seems that you want to use the RAM modules which are not totally compatible and therefore the system hangs.

    By the way: the CPU that is used in this notebook runs the DDR3-800 and DDR3-1066
    RAM modules.
    http://Ark.Intel.com/products/49020

    I would not recommend to use the modules of DDR3-1333 but PA3677U-1M4G 4 GB DDR3-1066

  • Satellite A200-27R: help with the fn XP

    Hi all

    My new laptop is a 27R A200 PSAE3E-07H027EN
    I hate Vista so I downgraded to XP Professional.
    Everything seems fine, BUT I have problems with the Fn keys :-(
    Strange thing is that some are Fn + ESC, Fn + F1, Fn + F3 Fn + F4... but I can not change the brightness (Fn + F6, Fn + F7) and I can't toggle the touchpad (Fn + F9).

    I installed a few Toshiba Power Saver and it helped me to solve some brightness... but I need for the random variable during the day... for having solved the brightness is VERY frustrating... I really need your help, people.

    I don't need THAT these three combination Fn to work, I don't mind even to cancel the others...

    Help! Help! Help!

    P.S.: If you have a working driver, would you mind to send e-mail? Thank you!

    Hi Cristian

    I wonder why you didn't search first for the issues described in the first messages. :?|
    I remember this issue and I can certainly tell you that the solution was already posted here in the forum to a Satellite forum

    The solution is very simple; as described by SambaDeAmigo the version of the BIOS XP is needed to get all FN keys work.

    This will work for sure!
    Try it.

  • Satellite L750 - how scrolling with the touchpad?

    I have a Satellite L750 (my first laptop and first touchpad) running Windows 7. I put the mouse scrolling to 1 line at a time, but every time I place the pointer on the right scroll bar arrow down (and press the left button or press on) the screen pops so that the scroll bar is at the bottom. I want the screen to "inch" down slowly as if I was using a mouse wheel.

    Yes, I know that the answer is probably very simple, so those people who are itching to answer don't forget I'm a 'newbie' to touchpad.

    Concerning

    Hey,.

    You can scroll with the touchpad on the right side of it. Just move your finger upward or down on the right side of the touchpad and you can scroll with this gesture. It of not complicated and very easy.
    In addition, these basic operations are described in the user manual and I recommend reading. ;)

    If you are not familiar with the touch pad, you can also connect an external USB mouse (mouse even as on a desktop computer). These external mice are cheap and you don't need a driver for it. Just connect it to a USB port and it of ready to use :)

  • Satellite A30 - shuts down during the installation of recovery or FDISK

    I have a Satellite A30 and I wanted all off it delete and start from scratch.

    Turned back with disc 1 CD product recovery, started well I was prompted to insert disk 2, it does well to about 80% then erased screen, then got the message "invalid partition table". I tried again and same thing happened. Connected FDISK back and chose option 1. 'create a DOS Partition or logic back drive' and the laptop stops. I put the startup option for no network or HARD drive CD player. At startup without inserted discs, I get the following. PXE - E61 madia tset failure, check cable.
    PXE - m0f: exit PXE ROM then freezes.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    I'm not sure at 100%, but from your description, I think that HARD drive get in trouble.
    How pxe message shows that means laptop can not find device bootable and as last it will boot from LAN.

    If possible, try to get a new HARD drive and check if the recovery procedure completes successfully. Old IDE hard drives are not more expensive. To test you can also use a used purposes, but of course has no HDD vice.
