Satellite A300 - built into the camera hangs

Salvation;

I have a problem on my laptop, built-in camera. After opening, using Yahoo messenger (webcam) or by Assistant camera camera software, in a few seconds, it crashes.
I tried to check if the pilot does not work, he said that there was last updated. I also try to uninstall and re - install, same problem
Which is wrong with this device? I just bought this laptop last month and gives me a problem. Can someone help me out here?

Model: Satellite A300
Part number: PSAG8E-05J00TEN
Serial No.: 29452151Q

Thank you!

Hello

I have Satellite A300 too and use cam with Skype. It works perfectly. I tested it with ICQ
Have you tested the feature cam with another application?

Also try disabling software pre-installed to Webcam Assistant (usually started automatically with Vista) and check the functionality with Yahoo.

    and first of all, as you can see - Acer only provides drivers for this model of laptop for windows 8, which is crazy because for ex I am running windows 7 on it or what do I do if I want to downgrade to windows XP, how to get drivers for my laptop?

    So my web cam driver was automatically installed with windows, BUT there is a problem.

    My camera only works with Skype and Firefox/Chrome.

    Skype recognizes it normally:

    but no other software can find and use the camera.

    webcam7 even after choosing the webcam as a source gives just a black screen:

    In addition to this, the windows software standard that normally comes with the windows called Camera - does not exist.

    The camera appears under devices.

    I tried to uninstall the driver. Install a new one. I tried everything I could find online, and nothing seems to work.

    It's almost a new laptop and it's crazy that I can't use such a common feature as the webcam.

    I'll send the same message to the customer of the Acers and see what is going, they say, but I reached a wall and do not know which can then do?

    You must install the required application that came with the webcam, if you don't have that, download and install from the manufacturer's website.
    Once done, open webcam application, you will find "capture photo" option, click it to capture, by default it saves the image in pictures.

  • Satellite A300-1J1 - after the installation of Kaspersky, the camera does not work

    Since the installation of Kaspersky internet security, my webcam does not work, message appears at windows startup, saying: he needs to be reinstalled. How can I do this?

    Also any idea if the sims 3 is likely to work well on this laptop?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello!

    Reinstall the webcam driver should be easy enough. You only have to download the driver for the webcam on Toshiba driver download page:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    If you have downloaded the new version, you can delete the old version in Add/Remove Programs, restart the computer, and then install the new version.

    Regarding the SIMS3, you should check the system requirements for the game first. This is a fairly new game, and the Satellite A300 is not the best gaming laptop so I think that the laptop is not fast enough for this game.

    Login as an administrator.

    Double-click Control Panel / Device Manager - Imaging - writing down of the brand and model of camera.
    on this subject and on the tab of the driver is version. Now, click on update drivers (who are unable to do anything as MS
    is far behind the pilots of certification). RIGHT click on the camera - UNINSTALL - REBOOT - it
    will update the driver stack.

    Now, go to the system manufacturer's website and download the latest driver for the camera and the other related camera
    software (if not more recent get the same).

    Download - SAVE - go to them and RIGHT CLICK - RUN AS ADMIN - reboot after each driver.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    Then let windows updates on however prevent loading of drivers who are often older than the

    Hi smarjit1,

    Have you tried different SD cards or just this one SD card? The SD card is probably the problem, what do you think?

    In addition, I would like to try an update card reader driver. The most recent driver, you can download on the official website of Toshiba:

  • Satellite A300 stops when the power adapter cable

    Hi people

    When I connect the power cable for my toshiba satellite a300, it stops immediately. I can use it on battery normally without any problems.
    When I boot in safe mode, it works fine without any problems with the AC adapter plugged into the laptop.
    Operating system is Windows Vista
    What is the reason? What can I do to fix this?

    Thank you

    Can you use it for laptop with AC power only when the battery is removed?
    If so, boot up your laptop and when the operating system is loaded to put battery inside, wait a few minutes and disconnect the power supply.
    Plug it in again and let us know if the same thing will happen again.

  • Satellite A300 windows on the grid does not

    Hello.

    I have a Satellite A300 only recently begun to close without warning. I first thought this may be a virus problem, but after the execution of various virus programs I excluded it as likely a cause. Thinking that the problem can be caused by a recently installed program, I did a restore of the system without result. The problem got worse for a few weeks, and after a lot of tests and trials, I now have the following problem:. The laptop runs without problem on the farm, but if I plug my adapter, it stops a few seconds. It will run on the network in SafeMode for hours, but if I try to start it with hands attached, it will go beyond the start of Toshiba for the "bars" screen and then stop. The battery is charged, but only when the laptop is turned off.

    I have already spend a lop of time on it and have tried different adapters to exclude the possibility that it may be defective. I also disassembled the unit and clean the fans, etc.

    After reading some suggestions on different forums, I'm now trying to upgrade the bios (there is one available for this model), but have now run into a brick wall. I continue to receive various error messages when I try to update the bios. 1 insyde flash can't load the driver... He told me to run as administrator (I am), and the suggestion that it is for me, it's that I can't upgrade the Bios on battery... BUT that's all that I can run. The only time that it is running on the electric network is in safe mode, and then it won't let me upgrade the Bios. Help Help Help. The laptop is about to become landfill. The only thing I haven't done is reset to the factory setting. Suggestions for my bios problem please...

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    In my opinion the update of the BIOS would not help you to solve this power off of the issue.
    Even if the BIOS is not updated, the laptop must turn off not with the AC adapter.

    To be honest, I think the problem might have something to do with the motherboard.

    Usually laptops would be shut down automatically due to a higher temperature, but in your case, I doubt its problem of temperature from the laptop stops immediately start the operating system.

    Back to BIOS update issue:
    As far as I know, the adapter must be connected in order to update the BIOS. In SafeMode it s not possible to update the BIOS.

    I not quite sure if faulty RAM could bring this maybe not RAM problem, but of course, you can try to start the device using a module of RAM only Mr. you test the two Rams in each slot.

    However, if anything would help him, the technician should run some diagnostics to determine the cause.

  • Satellite A300 - I lost the recovery partition

    I have satellite a300 with pre loaded Vista Home premium OS, for some reason, I had to format the entire disk and I lost my operating system recovery partition.

    Can someone help me get my operating system partition?
    I had checked with service centers, they said that I can use the BONES of similar model recovery partition.

    So I ask everyone if someone can give me the score of the OS, I would be grateful to them.

    Please contact me at [email protected]

    Hello!

    I think that you do not understand something wrong.
    On Toshiba laptops, there is no recovery partition, they have HDDrecovery folder that contains factory settings.
    I have a recovery partition you want to say is a feature of Windows Vista, not a Toshiba.
    Here is a useful link to it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WinRE

    HARD drive recovery file is stored on the second partition of the laptop. You can use the disk HARD recovery function if you go into the advanced boot menu, choose repair my computer and select the recovery Toshiba HDD feature.
    But I think it's too late now

    Burn you the Toshiba Recovery disk? Normally, you can burn the original image which is stored in the file on a DVD HARD drive recovery using the Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator. Therefore, you always get a popup that you must do this or message do not forget.

    If you don't l t this and you want the Toshiba recovery disc you must order a new one. You can do so here: https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

    I hope I could help you. Do you have more questions?

    Good bye

  • Satellite A300 - after installing the Vista SP1 no longer start

    Hello

    I brought my Satellite A300 friends tonight to upgrade Vista to Windows 7.

    The disc of Windows 7 told me before he could upgrade the Vista would need a service pack 1, so I started to install the service pack and when he went to restart mode then it spent in step 2 restart and all of a sudden the screen went black and a load of a number appeared and it goes no further the system frozed.

    Problem now is that Windows does not start and it will not work in safe mode and I'm afraid that all my friends photo and files are now gone.

    I'm empty!

    Can anyone help?

    Hello

    Now, what happens if you try to start Windows? You get an error message or something else?

    Normally before you install something like a Service Pack or Windows 7 you must back up all the files first and this must be done at any time normally ;)
    I think you can only recover data if you put the HARD drive into an external HARD drive enclosure. Then, you can save the data on another computer.

    After that, you can do a clean Windows 7 or alternative facility. install Vista using Toshiba recovery disc, then Windows 7.
