Satellite A300-1PH - why I have to enter a password in the BIOS?
Hi all, how were u.
It's been 2 months since I bought the laptop Satellite A300-1PH. yesterday, the first time I tried to see my system BIOS by pressing F2, but it took entry in the BIOS password but I never put the password that I am very first open.
Can someone tell me what is the exact problem?
Hello!
Like Akuma said maybe the store you bought has defined a password
Or it's a laptop second hand the owner then has set a password and I forgot to remove it
However, a BIOS password can be removed from an authorized service provider. I'm sure they can help you.

Satellite A300-17N - t - it have port series and how to get there?
Hello
To help my studies in microcontrollers, I need serial port, but I did not on the Panel of my laptop. I know that some laptop models have one on their motherboards, but is not on the Panel. If satellite A300-17N is one of them I enjoy any help and instructions how to get manually.
Thanks in advance.
Hello
Satellite A300-17N doesn t have serial port and AFAIK no Satellite A300 was equipped with this port.
But I saw a few online shops, they listed an Express card that offers the serial port (RS232). I found one on Amazon:

Hi all
I just bought a Satellite A300 - 1MC (model No. PSAG8E-00W00TEN) and I am using the software Toshiba Assist, but its me asks for a password and I don't know what it is or where I can find it.
Any suggestions?
Also slightly off topic, the laptop contains buttons to control media player, is there anyway I can change to control iTunes?
See you soon
IanHave you tried to do an update of Toshiba Assist? A new version and all the other stuff from Toshiba which you can find here:

Maybe the update will solve the problem.On command buttons, I think you need to configure iTunes as standard Media Player and select all the files to iTunes playlist.

Why I have Photo and Photos open at the same time?
When what's going on? When you connect a camera or a card reader?
Or after the Mac is restarted?
If this occurs after startup, check system preferences > users and groups.
Select your account and open the connection. Deselect the applications you want to open at startup.
If this happens when you connect a camera, open the iPhoto preferences > general.
Set the preference "Connecting camera opens" to "no application".

Hello
I recently bought a Satellite A300-16I.
My problem with these media keys near the keys ON / OFF, it is that they always start Windows Media Player.
And because I rarely use this program I would set up, so that it would start Winamp.If anyone has any idea how it's dan I would really appreciate to hear from you.
Yours,
GahivelvelHello
I think that's not possible.
On my Toshiba laptop control buttons are preconfigured and the settings cannot be changed.I presume that it of the case even on your laptop.
What OS came preinstalled on your A300?
If you are using Windows XP, then you can view the tool called; Toshiba controls
It s in the control panel.Here you can configure the buttons; CD/DVD and lighting On / OFF

Wen I turn on, I can point to enter my password. I entered my password and the screen displays a symbol of shooting and seems to expect something to go. The mouse does not work and none of the keys work. I have WIFI in my house, but the system looks like it's waiting to connect. I waited for more than 10 minutes. The only thing I can do is press and hold the switch down for a few seconds until there is a power down. I then power back up and get my password again. I between it and the system is in place OK. It happens all the time. It all started about 2 weeks ago. I have not loaded all the apps since it worked normally. Also, if I am growing up and running and I doi a stop with a reboot, the system comes down and restarts and arrives at the passwword. Enter the password and I have hung up again.

How do you change the delay time on screen password so that I don't have to enter my username and password when I don't use the computer for several minutes?
It is a part of the screen saver settings.
Right-click on an empty area of your desktop, then click on 'Properties'-> Screensaver (tab)
Then change the number in the 'Wait' box to set the idle time before the screen saver starts.
You can uncheck the box "On Resume, protect by password" If you never want to enter a password on the resume.
Then press "OK" your way out.HTH,
