• How to install XP in Satellite A300-1BI with Vista

  Hello

  A few days ago, I bought a Satellite A300-1BI with Windows Vista preinstalled. I don't like this OS and I want to degrade for Windows XP and also install my Ubuntu Linux distribution, but I cannot install lame of them because the hard disk appears as "not connected" on men to install XP and Ubuntu... It seems that the laptop is made ONLY for Vista and I think that it's... pathetic...

  Can someone help me? I tried to search for information on the web, forums, etc., but it seems I'm the only one with this problem.

  Thank you!

• Satellite P300-1 year - Touchpad problem with AC adapter / CC

  I have a laptop Satellite P300-1 year and from the beginning (two weeks)
  I have a touchpad problem: it will not immediately responsive and the pointer shakes when pressing the key. Very often, it freezes for only one or two seconds.

  It's VERY annoying. A USB mouse works perfectly.
  I tried to reinstall the drivers of the ALPS, tried Synaptics ones, just try Windows Vista drivers: no way.

  Now, I found the reason: this question is present only when the laptop is powered by the AC adapter / CC.
  With the battery, the touchpad is perfect.

  I contacted Toshiba Service and thay said that they do not change the AC adapter if I don't mean before a full system restore!
  Is it not more simple just try with a new adapter and then only, if the problem persists, try more drastic procedures?

  Anyone had this same problem?

  The point is that your laptop should be always verified using the Toshiba factory setting.
  Why? Because the ASP wants to make sure that this issue is not related to a software problem (compatibility problems with applications 3rd part). Software problems are not covered by the warranty.

  In addition the ASP will always recover the laptop before the verification of the pieces of equipment to malfunction. Therefore, you should always back up your data from the HARD disk until you send the laptop to check.

  I recommend you to reinstall the operating system using the Toshiba recover disc and then check if the problem appears.
  If yes you can contact ASP and could provide all the necessary details for only one technician.

  Good bye

• Satellite Pro P100 - Synaptics touchpad problem with Win 7

  Satellite Pro P100 with Synaptics Touchpad, was now running Vista, Win 7 64 bit.
  The original driver had an option "disable when the external pointing device connected.

  I installed a Synaptics Synaptics_v14_0_3_C_XP64_Vista64_Win7 driver - 64_Signed_default.exe that does not have this check box.

  It works fine except that sometimes the Microsoft Mouse becomes works all the seconds that she or the touchpad to fight everyone. I have to disable the touchpad.
  So the next time I turn. If I do so without a mouse, I can't use the touchpad until I plug the mouse, turn it back on, then disconnect the mouse.

  Thank you

  Hello

  Try to install the Synaptics drivers and Alps touchpad page pilot European Toshiba.
  Choose the touchpad Win 7 drivers out for a satellite L500 series.

  By the way; the touchpad can be enabled and disabled by using the FN + F9 button combination. It is not necessary to have all the options if FN + F9 works very well.

• Satellite A300 and Win7 - strange problem with card speakers\sound

  Hi all
  I work on one - A300-1MO with win 7 ultimate 32 bit

  In the last few days (since I installed the Bluetooth driver but I don't think that it's important), sound card and the speakers of the laptop, go to be dumb to be active, sometimes in large volume.

  It bothers me a lot because my computer is noises while I'm in classes (from apps running\web sites etc.). I've almost been hunted class several times because of this.

  I tried the sound card on the console of windows and the application of the sound card of inhibition, it doesn't help.

  I'd appreciate any help.

  Thanks a bunch
  Return on investment.

  Hello

  Have you tried to reinstall / update the sound card driver?
  I think that this should be the first step you should try.

  The laptop uses a Realtek audio chip.
  Visit the Realtek page to get the latest Realtek audio driver.
  Remove the old audio driver installed and after reboot new try the audio downloaded Realtek driver.

  Welcome & good luck

• Satellite A300-20 b - Touchpad does not work after BIOS update

  I've updated the BIOS on my Satellite A300-20 b latest version 2.00. Update succeeded, but when I rebooted system touchpad has stopped working.

  I tried to find the solution, resettled drivers (windows XP system). In the Windows Device Manager there is no problem with Synaptics PS/2 Port Touchpad, I see. Software Synaptics shows no problem I can enable and disable the touchpad, but it does not work for the touchpad. I tried Linux live CD and in this system does not work as good touchpad. I think there is problem in this version of the BIOS.

  Does anyone have the same problem?

  Hey Buddy,

  Have you tried to turn the touchpad on or off if you press FN + F9? Check this please!
  Also, try to load the default settings in the BIOS.

  What happens if you connect an external mouse to the laptop? It work?

  I can t imagine that the BIOS update causing this problem. If it doesn't work, you need to contact a service provider for help. They can check the touchpad and replace.

• Update BIOS on Satellite A300 disabled the touchpad in WinXP

  Hey

  I just installed XP on my A300, the installation went well, until I updated the BIOS to to 1.7. After that, the touchpad is irrespeonsive, which means that it is displayed in the Device Manager, but does not.

  I tried the Fn + F9 key and after a long driver Hunt, I decided to re - install Windows XP, to locate where the problem was.

  I also tried resetting the BIOS by default, but once again, without a bit of luck.

  The touchpad still does not work.

  Is there a possibility to downgrade the BIOS?

  Hello Johan

  Can you please tell me what Satellite A300 you exactly (A300-xxx)?
  What model is your laptop?
  Almost all cell phones of the A300 are WXP supported and I can not imagine that the update of the BIOS can kill touchpad. It's very strange.

• Satellite A300 - new battery compatibility problem

  Hello

  My apologies if this question is in the wrong part of the forum but I need help with a problem of battery for my Toshiba laptop.

  I have a Satellite A300 and did it for about 4 years.
  Battery recently not to organize free and put this up to age so I ordered a new online.
  My previous battery had issue PA3534U-1BRS DC 10.8V and 4000 mAh and my new battery PA3534U-1BRS DC 10.8V and 4000 mAh.

  The problem is that the computer does not seem to like it.
  If I put the battery and connect the power adapter red battery icon will show and stay for about 5 minutes before you start to Flash.
  When I turn on the computer and log on to the computer displays "battery not detected" in the battery in the tool bar icon.
  I couldn't so far to charge the battery.

  What I am doing wrong? Any ideas on how I can get around this?

  Any help gratefully received

  Thank you

  Hello

  First of all there are no many things that must be done if you replace the battery.
  The new battery should be automatically recognized by laptop and the Windows System.
  If it s not the case, then the battery is not completely compatible or malfunctioning.

  There are several batteries on the market; origin and original parts parts
  I recommend buying an original Toshiba Toshiba service block in your country.
  In this case, you can be sure that you bought a fair and good share for your laptop to 100%.

  Recently, I had to use my recovery disk and restored my laptop to factory settings. Almost everything is back is the way has been, except for a small problem.

  The WiFi does not work. It is on, but when I go to connect to the wireless family network, it tells me to insert a cable.

  I install the drivers of Realtech and still not get the case.

  Thank you in advance.

  Your wireless network is not visible to your laptop satellite?

• Satellite A300-1BZ with Vista - Port Com disappeared

  Hello world.

  My first time and I'm a bit of a dunce with technical stuff, so please be gentle with me!

  A300-1BZ with Vista.

  Some time ago I installed "CarSoft V.83" (diagnosis engine) of CD on my laptop. He asked me to check the com port.
  I looked in Device Manager and in the list that I saw "port com 4". OK, we'll go with that then. Everything worked well and I was luckily away talking to my car.

  Yesterday I went to use it for the second time and he says there is an error with the com port and 'check' the com-port.
  So, I got the Device Manager to the top and there is no mention of any com ports in the list! It is the last time I looked, and now he's disappeared!

  I was at a loss what to do, I uninstalled the CarSoft, then re-intsalled once again. Received the same error message.
  Went to Device Manager. Still no com port 4 from the list, or anything that pertains to a com-port.

  I don't know how or if I can get it back.

  Help, please!

  Hi mate

  First of all there is no COM port. The com port that you could see in the Device Manager has been a virtual port created by the software of the car.

  What to say
  I recommend to remove the software of the car of the first installation.
  Then download the CCleaner and clean registry and system entries.
  Restart the computer, and then rerun the CCleaner
  After that, install the software in the car again

  Maybe it helps

• Satellite A300: Win 7 touchpad double click does not

  Hello, recently I have installed Win 7 and double click on the touchpad is not responding. I have to use the left button. I reinstalled the drivers in different times, but the problem still persists. I use A300. When I go into the Device Manager settings all looks normally - device works correctly. Is there a "connection" between Win 7 - VAP - synaptic? In the I have a wireless mouse and it works very well :). Any idea?

  Hello

  You need to check if the double click, double touch is enabled in the properties of touchpad!
  Please go to control panel-> mouse-> device-> settings (or properties?) settings
  Here, you will get a lot of options on the touchpad.
  There you should find the option associated with double-click

  Good bye

• Re: Satellite A300 of start-up problems and time

  Hello everyone,

  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A 300, and I have some problems with it.

  Problem is when I leave my computer (without external energy source) the time resets 2007, after several hours about (could be 6 hrs)., and computer quite often begins immediately after that I push the power button.

  I don't know the cause of the problem, because the battery is OK., computer running long on battery.

  I think the problem is in an internal battery in the CMOS, but I don't know if there is in portable computers.

  Suggestions will be highly appreciated!

  Kind regards
  Osman

  Hello

  > The problem is when I leave my computer (without external energy source) the time resets 2007, after several hours about (could be 6 hrs)., and computer quite often begins immediately after that I push the power button.
  Which is strange, I want to say the CMOS battery should not unload even the main battery is not empty as it s really strange to happen after 6 hours of non-use...

  What you can do is to let the laptop connected to the AC adapter for over 24 hours
  During this period the laptop should be lit!
  Then you can check the operation of the CMOS battery and if this behavior will always be

  If Yes, then you will need to contact a local ASP. Maybe the CMOS or the motherboard needs to be replaced
