  Hello

  I am really lost, just tried to add, for almost every driver possibble to many other copanies, I'm looking for help here.

  If someone I also have this problem or have solved this problem, please give me a link or advice how to get this device works on Vista x 64.

  Kind regards

  Tom.

  Hello

  Seems that the 64 bit Vista drivers are not available for this new series of Satellite A300-15J PSAJ4E.

  But as far as I know the laptop supports a digital media card reader that has been integrated into another series of small notebook common Multiple.
  So why you n t try some card reader controller driver Vista 64 bit published BLAH IE Satellite A210 or another series.

  I recommend you test some drivers

  Good luck

• Satellite A300-15J: missing software sound like on Sat A100

  Hello

  I got my Toshiba Satellite A300-15J 2 days ago. My previous laptop was an A100.

  Miss me the sound software that had my previous laptop.
  There was a tray for the sound icon and I could right click and select if I use headphones or speakers to the laptop.

  I wonder if there is no need to distinguish between the headphones and speakers to laptop on this system? If there is, could be directed to a link to download the audio software for this model. This Windows Vista.

  Thank you for your time.
  Leon

  Hello

  I presume that your previous A100 has used a Realtek audio Manager.
  The A300 does not use and does not support the Realtek audio chip, but it supports the audio chip Conexant CX20561 and as I m not wrong there another sound feature.

  Check your control panel-> * Smart Audio *.
  You must meet certain useful configurations.

  Hello

  I have a laptop Satellite A300-15j.
  Is there no way to disable my Bell System?

  It's sound is very loud and annoying.
  I would have run a big mysql script with errors soon and my Bell system had become crazy.

  My cell phone sounded like an alarm and it was very awkward.

  If so you could turn off the sound in Control Panel-> sound-> last sounds tab

• Satellite P100: Can I connect two external monitor to the VGA & DVI port at the same time?

  Satellite P100 comes with two port external monitor. One VGA and one DVI. Can you have two external monitor works at the same time? Can you have two external monitor as well as your internal screen working at the same time (for a total of 3 screen at the same time?

  Here's what I confirm:

  Internal display + display DVI connector
  OR
  Internal display + screen VGA connector

  Is it possible to have:

  Display connector DVI + VGA connector display?

  OR

  Display connector DVI + VGA connector screen + internal display?

  As far as I know, this is not possible and you can use a DVI or VGA port.
  Output signal can be used only a single port for external monitor.

• Satellite A300-1J1 - webcam freezes

  My built in web camera freezes after 20 seconds of use (even no registration, just to be on) and then takes a few pictures every 10 to 40 seconds. It is never used to freeze so I was wondering maybe I needed to download new software, but I couldn't find anything.
  I checked all the system requirements and they are all filled.

  Help?

  Hello!

  To be honest I m wondering about this question. I have the Satellite A300 too and yesterday all night I used the camera for video calling my friend. I never had a problem and I was surprised of the image quality quite well.

  Regarding your problem, you should try to update the driver for the webcam that you can find on the Toshiba site:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > Download Driver

  But before installing the new version, you must remove the old one. Restart the computer and then install the latest version.

  I hope that helps! :)

• Satellite L30-149, only works with external monitor and VGA mode

  Satellite L30-149, Windows XP Home Edition

  Yesterday I did face the following problem:

  I swithched on my laptop but I have nothing on the screen. I tried to reboot several times, but it did not help. If I look very carefully, I see the logo of Intel (black text on white on the screen) but nothing else. The logo shows very low.

  I plugged on the external monitor. With that he gives a little more. The Intel logo with the instruction how to reach configuration etc. Then Windows logo but when it should ask the user, the external monitor going to sleep mode and nothing happens after that.

  And an external monitor, I managed to connect to Windows in safe mode and also in VGA mode. In VGA mode, I tried to change the resolution, after that I got black screen again and I had to start.

  Now I wonder if I could do something (update of drivers, etc.) or should I go to the store where I bought the laptop and ask them to fix it. This look like a problem covered by the warranty?

  --
  Upgrade to this message (what happened after that I wrote the above text).

  I turned on the laptop again. I thing the lightning from the room is now better because I noticed that the laptop seems to work (almost) correctly. Windows starts normally, I can faintly see the desktop. This seems to be a problem in the background ligthning. FnF7 does not change the situation.

  This sentence is very interesting.
  Sounds like a question of FL-ups!

  It is a small part behind the screen and control the backlight of the screens.
  Usually, this part is not very expensive and the replacement is not complicated to a technician for laptop.

  If your warranty is valid, then everything should be done for free.
  Try to contact the ASP in your country and ask for later handling.

• Satellite A300-1GC random freeze

  Hello

  my laptop (Satellite A300-1GC) worked very well for many years. But then last year he startet freeze randomly.

  What I mean with gel: I can't do anything, the mouse and the button are not, nothing on the screen moves (stop animations etc.). The only way to restart the computer is pressing the power on button for a few seconds.

  First of all I thought to a software problem, perhaps caused by an update windows (windows 7 Professional).

  The problem appeared different situations (programming, surfing the web,...), but often directly after starting the computer. Sometimes even in the login screen. I disabled all the startup process automatic antivirus, software, etc., but the problem remains.

  I never had the problem in safe mode (don't know if that's the correct word, in German, it is 'abgesicherter Modus'), but I don't use it very much, as a test.

  Then I installed linux mint on a separate partition. At first glance, it seems that the problem does not occur there. But after a few days: same problem. Random freezes, often after the start, but also at any time thereafter.

  I have not found any information related to the problem in the newspapers, in windows or Linux.

  So now I think it's a hardware problem, as it took place in windows (even at the login screen) and linux.
  I checked the disc with windows chkdisk and memory with memtest86 +. No error was found.

  You have an idea, what could be the reason for the gel? You need more info?

  Thank you very much

  Laptop could start freeze due to a higher internal temperature.
  After a long period of use fans and the vents may be blocked by dust.
  Dust prevents the fan is working properly and therefore the temperature could increase that may affect the functionality of the laptop.

  Try to clean the grates and remove the dust using a jet of compressed air.
  It is perhaps the best way to get rid of dust

  Another reason for this gel could be the memory problem
  It seems that you have already checked the laptop for the problems of RAM running the memtest86 + but even if this tool has said there is no problem of RAM, memory dysfunction might be possible. Of course it's only suggestion

  I think that you don't have a choice but to check each possibility: new installation of the OS, fan cleaning, maybe new HARD drive?

  Everything is possible

• Satellite M30-S309 - certain proportions on external monitor not right

  Hello world.

  I have a Satellite M30-S309 that I just started to use it with an external monitor: a 191EW9 of Philips, which has a maximum resolution of 1368 x 768. The built-in monitor is 16 "; the new external monitor is 18.5 ".
  The computer has the driver for the new monitor, but with a few photos of the proportions are obviously not right.

  Anyone know of any way to solve this problem? Or it's an old computer like this all simply not up to handle this type of monitor?

  A solution would be much appreciated.

  Hello

  Can you please explain what you mean with certain proportions are not suitable?
  You can choose the native screen resolution of the external display or use another resolution of the screen?

  To me that sounds like this, you use a wrong setting. On the screen you can change the width, height and to this day. You should check these options.

• Satellite A200-1BJ - no display on external monitor

  Hello

  I have a display problem with my laptop, which is:

  When I connect my computer to an external display (projector - data show - using the rgb or s-video cable), the contents of my computer are not displayed.
  I used F5, Catalyst Control Center, but without success.
  When I connect it with a TV using s-video, I get the message "no signal".
  I think of the existence of the other devices, but the content is not sent to the external display.

  I don't know what the problem is. I need to use my computer and the screen using a projector for my presentations, which is very common.
  The problem is that he used to work, then suddenly it stopped display on external displays.
  I could not understand the problem, then I thought that the settings have been changed accidentally.
  So I formatted my computer back to the factory setting, but my attempt failed and it still does not display on the external monitor.

  My computer specs:
  -Toshiba Satellite A200-1BJ
  -Processor: Intel Core2 Duo
  -OS: Windows Vista editions Home Premium
  -Graphics card: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600

  Does anyone know the solution?

  Thanks in advance.

  In your case I would update the BIOS and the display driver. The two you can find on the Toshiba site:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

  Have you tried different cables? Maybe it s faulty or too long.

  Also, be sure to use a rate of resolution and refresh supported for the external monitor display. You can change that in Catalyst Control Center.

  one last thing, my laptop is often BSoD after the awakening of fashion 'sleep'... and it restarts automatically so I can't collect a lot of information... but the windows solutions Center says something about the driver ATI... but I have the driver from toshiba Web site, do not know if there is a way to fix this problem as well.

  looking for postponed for your help...

  Thank you...

  I have very good experiences with Satellite A300 and Win7 installation. No problem at all.
  I can see on the download page of Toshiba that your model of laptop is fully supported for Win7 and everything you need to do is install all the stuff of Toshiba in order of good facilities.

  My order of facilities is:
  -Win7 Home Premium (new installation)
  -chipset driver
  -Storage Manager
  -display driver
  -driver sound
  -modem driver
  -utility supervisor
  -infrared
  -patches
  -configfree
  -VAP
  Hardware - toshiba
  Control - HDMI
  -WLAN driver

  Everything works well but lacks some drivers

  Added Vista tips:
  Toshiba - help - working properly
  -Card reader - installed correctly
  -Webcam driver for A500 - tested with Skype - works correctly.
  Driver - Synaptics

  I don't really know what you're doing wrong. Maybe some background process block put into regular service.
  I recommend to try again and make easy step by step following my list and let me know what stage you will be faced with the issue described.

• Satellite A215-S7414 - no signal on external monitor

  I have the model A215-S7414 and the LCD screen is broken,
  So now I have a 2nd moniter "run the image" for my laptop

  The image is available by loading microsoft and F2, F8, F12 logos
  However, to start the laptop I always had disable driver signature enforcement to get to the point where I can access Windows

  I hear the laptop that windows has loaded, but the moniter automatically stops and says 'no signal '.
  the monitor is an Emachine E19T6W

  I ran a start-up repair, don't know if it's relevant, but he says
  "unspecified system configuration changes may have caused the problem.

  so, if you please help me.
  I would gladly appreciate it willingly

  Hi mate

  The only option that could be useful in your case is the use of the FN + F5 key combination.
  If this key combination function, you should be able to switch the video output to an external monitor.

  But if the FN + F5 combination doesn't function then I put t see no other workaround to the release of the video on the external monitor, how do you want to change something if you n t see anything on the screen?

• Satellite A135-S4467 - LCD is dim - external monitor is fine

  I can see my desktop if I shine a screen have screen LCD flashlight and if I plug an external monitor everything works fine.
  Programs and everything works I just can not see the screen on the LCD screen.

  I am new to this so if someone can tell me what to check and how to check and fix if possible he greatly appreciated wioyuld.

  If anyone has had the probklem and what have you to do? Where can I find a repair manual or tips and tricks online.
  My warrentry is 2 weeks out of date.

  Thank you in advance.

  > I can see my desktop if I shine a flashlight on the screen LCD and if I plug an external monitor everything works fine.

  This problem resembles a failure of inverter FL.
  The FL inverter is part hidden somewhere close to the screen.
  It controls the backlight of the display.

  I think that this part needs to be replaced.

  In your case, I recommend you contact the ASP in your country. Why?
  Because first of all, you can order these parts to the authorized service partner and second guys could be very useful and may disassemble the laptop and replace the part.
