• Satellite A300-1QD - start some time and memory errors won't test

  Hello

  I have some real problems with a brand new satellite A300 1QD.
  After update of Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit (Service Pack2) Vista unbootable. After the reboot of forst, it showed a message:

  File: \windows\system32\winload.exe
  Status: 0xc0000221
  Info: the file is corupt possibaly. the header checksum does not match the checksum calculated.

  AprΦs the dΘmarrage of the original CD Vista Home Premium or the Systembuilder OEM another error appeared:

  Error: 0xc000000f
  Missing or damaged \Windows\system32\winload.exe

  Does not even work by pressing F8 during startup. I have a chance to start even a repair because there is no option that I could choose.

  After a few resets the A300 seems to have some problems.
  A few times the display does not start, after the other it does not, start by hanging up during the automatic test etc.
  I have reset the BIOS by default Options, but it does not help.

  The A300 are one week. Am I allowed to remove a RAM bar without losing the warranty?
  I have read that sometimes it helps. I was able to do a memtest software vista. It is said that some hardware conflicts appeared.

  I am desprate, please help.

  EDIT:
  I did another test memory with linux 64 bit (openSUSE 11.1) and many erros occurred.
  What can I do now? The laptop is a present fpr my girlfriend Monday 15. Can I order other RAM and return that broke with a Numbor RMA or something?

  EDIT2:
  I recognized, that sometimes, when I start the laptop, the power led is the lightning to the top, but the satellite logo in the left corner remains dark.

  Oh, by the way, excuse my English, I hope that I can make myself clear enough that you can help me ^^

  I guess that you have solved this issue thank you for your comments mate!

• Satellite A300-1QD - how to restore Vista preinstalled?

  Hey,.

  I made a big mistake, two years ago. I installed windows 7 on my Satellite A300-1QD but on the laptop Windows Vista was installed and I have no recovery disk, but I have the original serialnumber of it.

  Are there opportunities to put Windows Vista on the laptop without buying a new version of Windows Vista?

  welcome them

  Hello

  If you don t have a recovery disk, you must order such a Toshiba drive directly to restore preinstalled Windows Vista with all the drivers and tools (factory settings):
  https://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

  But it s not free as far as I know it costs about 30 Euros.

  So I t understand why you didn't create the recovery disc yourself. Everything is mentioned in the user manual

• Satellite A300-1QD - two questions during the installation of windows XP or Vista

  Nice day
  Here's my problem:

  1. I just bought the Toshiba Satellite A300-1QD and since there is Vista based on it and I have Vista ultimate, I decided to install on the laptop.
  After I formatted deleated everything and I have the partition that I created a new.
  After that I installed Vista, now I'm at the point where it says complete installation and the blow bar is at about 2/3.
  My problem now is that it's now been 3 hours and nothing happens the dots next to the 'installation complete' is still occurring and disappearing.

  2 as the number one lasted so long I decided to install windows XP Professional, but when it loads after that I put the cd one has bluscreen place called chkdsk.

  What should I do now to get something on what works?

  Hello. I think that the partition table and boot loader are messed up and it's your problem. You can try to chek to find errors and format your HARD disk with a third parity tool and try to install windows again.

• Is impossible to recover the Satellite A300-1QD (VISTA)

  Hey I have a problem.

  I tried to restore my Toshiba Satellite A300-1QD parameters by pressing the F8 key.
  I followed every step correcrtly, but when it came to 99% the computer was off all of a sudden.

  I don't know why, but maybe the computer got overheated or something, but I've had enough battery life.
  Then I tried to turn it on again and it is said there may have been some damage and he said I should put a "a CD to install Windows" as a first step, step says that I should choose a language, and step 3 says I should click on REPAIR.
  HE DIDN'T THERE HAS NO OTHER OPTIONS.

  Then he said: if I do not have the CD, I must contact the producer.
  As I remember, I do not have any what CD with my Toshiba when I bought a year or two ago.
  All I have is a yellow mini CD that says DISK of DRIVER on it.

  Is anyone of you know if a recovery CD is shipped with Toshiba Satellite A300?
  And no one knows what I have to do because I think I don't have it?

  Thanks in advance.

  > I can remember, I don't have any CD with my Toshiba when I bought a year or two ago.

  You didn t get the recovery disk because there was an option to create the recovery disk clean you had to read the user manual
  The preinstalled tool called Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator can create a recovery disk
  Now it s too late you are not able to boot the system

  In this case, you must order the recovery disk;
  Here you can do;

  Hello

  It sounds like this dust is in the heat sink and your laptop should be cleaned using the jet of compressed air. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans. You can get air to each computer dealer normally stream.

  I clean my cell phone every 3-4 months and I m always asked how much dust out. I think that s important to clean but it only takes a few minutes. :)

• Satellite A300 - touchpad & keyboard issues

  I have the same problem that a lot of people is faced with (PSAG8E - 05J00TEN Toshiba Satellite A300 - 21H). I'm sure that the touchpad is not disabled.
  Clean installation of Windows VISTA - touchpad & keyboard half the time not work half the time. I'm sure this isn't a driver problem (if it doesn't not Device Manager said was a problem with the device..). I already tried 5 different drivers...
  I am faced with the question since I bought it... I thought that there could be problem with OS, today I installed UBANTU but face question (Mouse pad stops after some time) with this OS too... I'm sure that its hardware problem not with OS or any driver...

  Please can someone is there any solution for this...

  I have Satellite A300-1LI and it is also PASG8E but I n t notice a keyboard or touchpad problem. At the beginning I used it with the original image of Vista, but about a year now, I use Windows XP Home edition and Win7 as dual-boot. No problem at all.

  If you have noticed this strange problem from day one, why you didn t contacted Toshiba service and asked for help?
  I can imagine there is a hardware problem but I put t know what you want to do all alone on this subject. want to trade you the keyboard or the touchpad only.

  Replacement of keyboard is not a big problem but the touchpad...

• Satellite A300-1QD - "Bluetooth Stack for Windows by Toshiba" will not be installed

  Hello

  My system: Vista 64 Home Premium

  I already have the option for bluetooth devices in my Systemcontroll, but no device is shown.
  So I downloaded official Toshiba Bluetooth stack. At first, it seems that everything is fine, but after the second window, when RFBUS is installed and shown in the popup system that it is redy for use, the installation will stop. I don't know what to do? If I cancel the installer at this point, the installer said that the installation has been successfully and I should restart my system. Done, but no device.

  If I install the Bluetooth monitor too, I can connect to my mobile phone.

  Do I need the monitor? What is my fault on the battery Installation?

  If you are using an external Bluetooth USB adapter that is not Toshiba, then use the Bluetooth software supplied by the product.

  Do you use an internal Bluetooth module or a USB Bluetooth Toshiba adapter then I recommend the following?
  -Remove the "Bluetooth Monitor" software.
  -Remove the Toshiba Bluetooth stack.
  -Version of stack Bluetooth download the x 64 of the last battery Bluetooth.
  -Install the battery Toshiba Bluetooth. Make sure that you do not cancel any window during the installation. Be patient.
  -Do not use the Bluetooth Control Panel icon. It is still available, but you can not always use.
  -To start the battery Bluetooth just double click on the Bluetooth system tray icon or run it by double-clicking
  Start-> programs-> Toshiba-> Bluetooth-> Bluetooth settings

• Satellite A300-1QD needs too long to start

  Hi all!

  I'm sorry first of all, my English is very bad - but I hope you can help me.

  I have owned my laptop with Win XP-Home Edition and I have performance problems.
  As a first step that the hard drive has been changed because they said, it is the problem.

  Now, I need the NB for work or school.
  It's so slow that he needs about 5 minutes to start.
  I checked the hard drive and the RAM with a special test program an everything is OK.

  My friend told me, I should look on a chipset-trials-of program on the toshiba site. I can't find someone.

  Maybe someone in this forum knows about this problem.

  Thank you much for the help!

  Hello

  You are currently using Windows XP or other OS?

  I think it's just a software problem and should apply to performance tweaks to make Windows faster.
  First, you must remove all unnecessary software, such as trial versions or more. Check-online Add/Remove programs from the control panel.
  After that, clean the registry of Windows using CCleaner.
  In addition, turn off all programs that you start n t need in msconfig (start-run-msconfig online online).
  Last but not least to defragment your HARD drive.

  Here in the forum, there are some very interesting discussions on how to make Windows faster. If you use the forum search to find the discussions he s really useful!

  What could be the problem and how can I solve it?

  Hi vanja

  It is really strange and I also put t know why TEMRPO doesn't work properly. Have you tried with Internet Explorer?
  Maybe you should also update TEMPRO. You can download the latest version on the Toshiba site:

  But do you need TEMRPO? I uninstalled TEMPRO because I don t need. I only update something if it of necessary. ;)

• Satellite A300 - issue Downgrade from Vista to XP

  Hi all...
  IM intending to get rid of my windows Vista SP2 (32 bit) and XP SP3 (32 bit). My laptop is: [Satellite A300 - 1 G 5 | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=EU&com.broadvis ion.session.new = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 1055589].

  Now, I studied the topic before posting. When the first time I tried to install XP laptop does not recognize the CD of the OS and I failed. Later, I found a topic suggesting through the BIOS and change the HHD of ACHI to compatibility mode, so I did and it works but I have not installed yet. I have a few question reclassification process.

  1. once I have install the XP, can I put the AHCI mode? gives me a better performance (I really don't know what is ACHI!)
  2. this void my warranty?
  3. If I had a problem, the XP installation failed for some reason any and no OS on my laptop, will still be able to use the recovery DVDs to restore my laptop?
  4. now, the issue of the pilots. Here: [list of drivers Vista | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU] and here: [list of Drivers XP | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU], the question as follows:

  (A) some drivers exist in the list of drivers Vista but does NOT exist in XP driver list; as: DVD player, facial recognition, supervisor password, driver of the SRT, tiles for the mobility and WPS Library Center. What should I do?

  (B) is there a specific order to install drivers? as a driver for a device must exist before a driver to avoid conflicts or overwrite files?

  (C) there are several drivers for the same device, how to choose one? example: the Wireless Lan Driver has several companies (Realtek Semiconductor Corporation, Atheros and Intel); which I will use?

  5. is it true that Vista is better than XP mobility? will (consumption and the heat of power management) XP my laptop do suffer from heat because the laptop is already packed with vista? I mean, they tried what OS fits perfectly on the machine, unless Toshiba push just Vista people because Microsoft needs that... lol

  ----------------------------------------------------------------

  Hope that my questions are clear, I had something else to ask, its a matter of opinion. are there advantages of Vista on XP? I use my laptop for some games and make some 3Ds MAX, which both require a lot of RAM, Vista eats up to 1 GB of my RAM, so that XP barely fill half a GB of RAM, that is my main concern when I decided to go for XP. I'd like to hear your opinions and experience life...

  Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  In my opinion there is no great reason to change to Windows XP Home edition OS. Optimize Vista can also run well and stable on your laptop. I was very skeptical on Vista but now after a year of use I can work very well with it. Soon we will again have Win7 and it should work much better than Vista.

  My point of view is in a hurry and do not always return to comfortable. Of course, you can do what you want and your decision is quite legitimate. I imagine that you will get better performance under Windows XP Home edition for all activities, that you do every day.

  I must also say that you did the right thing to pick up some info before you start the installation of Windows XP Home edition. On this forum, you can find a lot of interesting and useful discussions.

  Back to your questions:
  1 n ° best performance, you'll have under ACHI.

  # 2 you can install what you want.

  3 Yes, but only the DVD. F8 option no longer works and the image on the second partition will be useless.

  4
  At the drivers, tools and utilities are not the same for Vista new and old WXP. Install available stuff. It is not enough.
  B - generally YES. If you need help with this let know us.
  C you know what WLAN card is in your laptop. Check Device Manager under Vista.

  5 I didn't noticed any difference. Toshiba installs Windows XP Home edition for years and has good experience with this. You can use great Toshiba power saver tool in Windows XP Home edition and optimise energy consumption, cooling method and performance. In Vista, you can do the same.

• Extended warranty for the Satellite A300 - 15 c

  Hello
  I'm new here so sorry if I posted it in the wrong thread.

  I want to buy a warranty extended for Satellite A300 - 15 c (1 + 1 standard warranty) if I want to ask which package of guarantee gives the longer protection for this model.
  2 + 2 is the longest? ID: SE5054I-PDB.

  Secondly and more importantly, the laptop is more than 1 year old. When I bought it, in the store they told me that the extended warranty can be activated at any time, but now I see that he has this policy for 30 days. Y at - there no way how to overcome?
  Thank you
