Satellite A300 - Code atstart-up sound

Hello

I own a laptop Satellite A300 (6 years) which I think could be finally dead! When I switch on, I get 1 long and 2 short beeps and a black screen. There is no symbol 'pie' below the scroll key, but all other lights are working.

Is it finally time to buy a new laptop or can it be saved? It happened without warning

I think that the graphics card is dead. Usually a video card in mobile machinery can be fixed, and in such cases, entire motherboard must be exchanged.

To be honest, it's time for the new laptop computer.
But before you throw, you can try to buy model identical laptop on eBay with faulty display or anything else, but if the motherboard is OK you can share and be your machine again in life.
The A300 models are not more expensive and on eBay, you will find a lot of them. Just be sure he has the part number the same as your A300.

My A300 is the PSAG8E model.

  • How can satellite A300-1NO - I record sounds?

    Hello. I have a Satellite A300 1NO machine, but I don't know how to put my sound card, because I want to record all the sounds that play my sound card. For example, listen to internet radio, and record a track of her.

    I cannot set my microphone to record it and can't see any more. WaveOut or something else... How could I solve this problem? I have the 6.0.1.5599 of its driver.

    Hello

    If you want to record the sound that plays the sound card, you need another program. So it is not possible to record sound only with the audio driver.

    There are many programs that can do this. I have good experiences with no. 23 Recorder. Use Google to find out. Its freeware and easy to use.
    In addition, there are some programs that streams internet radio, and save as. But I n t use such a program, but Google can help you find one.

  • 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.

  • Satellite A300 - code 31 with Intel 4965AGN network adapter

    Need help with an error code 31 of fixation with my Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN network card. I restored the PC from scratch and installed the drivers, but still have the same problem. I also have a 6 AX88772A USB 2.0 Fast Etherner Adapter as part of a Toshiba port replicator that works very well. I spent the registry of all errors.

    Any advice on what I could do to finally solve this problem?

    Hello

    What drivers you have reinstalled exactly? Normally if the 31 error code appears in the Device Manager, it should be enough to reinstall the driver only. You can find it here:

    You can install the driver if you go into Device Manager and select the WLAN card. Right-click on it and select Update driver. Don t forget to choose the Advanced installation where you can choose the driver yourself.

  • Issue of satellite A300 - 15G Conexant - improved sound quality Audio

    Hello

    After that I got my HP Vista to Windows XP, I came across a very strange thing. There is no problem with drivers because they could be easily found on the TOSHIBA web site. After you have installed all the drivers, I mentioned that the overall sound quality is worse.

    When I started studying the issue, I came across an anomaly. When you open a file in Winamp and, without closing it, open a movie in Windows Media or any other video player, the sound improves a lot.

    The same phenomenon occurs with the modem. When you start the connection, or to be more precise, when the President of the modem lights... Here, the sound is still improving. I tried many things... like downloading the drivers of different sites and different versions and re - install.

    But nothing helped. There is no problems with Vista so I guess, it's a software problem. I googled a bit and found some more people who have the same thing.

    I hope someone can help me because of the use of the Harman\Kardon pregnant if they do not produce sound?...

    Hi guys

    I found this Conexant audio driver.

  • No Satellite A300-01:00 no sound

    Win XP SP3

    All the drivers on the official site. But the sound card driver was installed... He wrote: "it is impossible to find the device for this driver"...

    Because of what it can be?

    (I'm of the Russia... Don't abuse me for my English please)

    Hello!

    Did you try it with SP2? SP3 sometimes make problems then I would try it with the older SP.

    You have this problem if you run the installation file or if you install the driver manually in the Device Manager?

    And you can also try a BIOS update you will find on the Toshiba site.

  • Satellite A300 - how to set up WiFi draft N?

    Hi all new to the forum so Hello.

    My father just bought a Satellite A300 with Vista, which I'm trying to set up for him.
    I can't get the wireless to connect to 11n only 11g. I tried on both routers that I managed to connect my suburb to @ 11n.

    Under Advanced settings in the device, the option of Wireless Manager, it does not list 11n anywhere, it lists all of the combinations of 11A, 11b, and 11g but not 11n!

    Any help pointers appreciated!

    Best regards, Steve

    What is the exact model of your Satellite A300 code?

    And are you really sure that your Satellite A300 supports draft N? Did you check that?
    The fact is that not all Satellite A300 supports the new draft N speed.

    To me that sounds like it's your laptop doesn't support draft N and if that were the case, you should try to update the driver WLAN from your laptop.
    You can find it on the page of Toshiba.

    Hello

    The sound card is listed in the Manager device correctly or yellow exclamation? You may need to reinstall the audio driver with the newest one of the Toshiba page.

    Also make sure that its isn t cut. You can deal with it, if you press FN + ESC.

    By the way: you can use the restore feature of the system to the last known good configuration. Then, you should have all the settings before Tempro update.

  • Satellite A300 - sometimes no sound

    Hi people,

    I had a Satellite A300 with built-in speakers. From time to time, it happens that the left one does not work properly. It doesn't come any sound out of it. Next time, when I start the computer laptop new averything's alright. I have already installed the new drivers for the sound card. But without success. I should mention that the headphone connector is working properly.
    My question is: what can I do? The warranty time has not yet expired. Should I send it for repair?

    Thank you

    Marcus

    Hi Marcus,

    It seems that the internal speakers should be replaced. I mean if external speakers or headphones are working, the only reason could be the internal speakers.

    So in your case I would call a service provider authorized cost a repair. I guess this internal speakers should be expensive, but just ask for it. I think that the technicians can make you a good offer! :)

  • Satellite A300 PSAG4E - no sound when you plug an electric guitar

    Hello everyone!

    I have a very difficult problem. I've got model Satellite A300, PSAG4E its short no, with Windows XP SP3 installed.

    The point is that I need to plug in an electric guitar to my computer and once it is plugged in, RealTek HD sees him but produces, records or not distinguished any sound.

    Everything is on, then I'm afraid that this isn't my inattention which is to blame.

    In case someone already had such a problem with guitar or a microphone plugged into the laptop, please inform me how you managed to eliminate this kind of things.

    Thank you.

    On my laptop I have Realtek HD Audio Manager also, but there is no option for registration. When the external microphone is connected Manager I see info on Realtek audio devices reloading and the microphone is recognized correctly, but in my opinion this Manager has nothing to do with the record.

    For the record, you need other software. In Vista, you have small tool called recorder of sounds. I tested it on my laptop and the sound will be recorded correctly.
    Can you please test it too?

    The fact is the external device is recognized correctly, but I think for sound recording, you need additional software.

  • Poor quality of the sound after XP or Vista upgrade on the Satellite A300 - 15 d

    Hello

    Please I need your help.

    I have my Satellite A300 - 15 d and I had a problem with my sound.
    When I upgraded to Vista ultimate or go back to XP my sound becomes very bad quality and I have tried to update drivers and utilities but no way and finally I come to Vista Home who came into the recovery.

    I hate it and I need a solution.

    Please answer

    Hello

    What exactly do you mean by "bad sound quality?"
    He is too weak or what?

    A300 - 15 d seems to belong to the series of PSAJ4E.
    Conexant for Win XP and vista audio driver is available on the European driver Toshiba page.

    I have the same sound chip in my book and the sound is ok... I also noticed that I have a SmartAudio in Control Panel.
    This seems to be an additional tool to improve the sound quality.

  • Satellite A300 Vista - no sound

    Hello

    The sound then has full on my Satellite A300 on Control Panel etc. Playback, no sound, off headset nothing anyway.
    I went on the sound, hardware and Control Panel. On the first section, somehow I wiped the image of Realtek and the image of the speaker.

    I downloaded the Realtek, but cannot reload, or the logo of the speaker?
    What should I do to get that back?

    What caused the problem in the first place?
    Could he have put a SKYPE phone on it?

    Hello

    I must say that your post is really confusing.
    I put t know how someone could erase the image of Realtek and the image of the speaker.

    But I'll try to help you.
    I think you need to access the Device Manager first and should remove your sound card in the list of devices.
    Reboot the laptop and after new restart try reinstalling the audio driver that you downloaded from the European driver Toshiba page.

    Usually, this should contribute to renew the sound card driver and retrieve the sound!
