  • Satellite A300-20 b and cooling problem

    Hello

    I have Toshiba Satellite A300-20 b and I have a cooling problem. Since I have this laptop I ve been tracking the temperature of the CPU and found out I got the maximum temperature was about 80 c. The strange thing is that the cooler starts only when the CPU reaches this high temperature, if it isn't the cold remains off.

    Another weird thing is that once it is not blocking the cooler starts. It stops only if I restart or shut down the computer. Is this normal? Should I worry about something? Thank you very much for your answers.

    OS: Windows 7

    Have you noticed the same thing with the settings and Vista preinstalled laptop?

  • Satellite 1800-314: upgrade of memory and CPU

    Hello everyone,

    I'm interested in upgrading my old satellite 1800-314.
    Does anyone know the upgrade of the maximum for this machine processor?
    It does support only pc100 or pc133 memory modules?

    My idea is to upgrade from the origin to a Celeron 1.4 or even a Pentium III Coppermine Celeron 1.1 / Tualatin processor and add more 256 MB machine.

    Thanks in advance,

    André

    Hello Andrew

    Upgrading the CPU is not possible. The processors used in laptops are connected to the motherboard using a process called TCP (tape carrier package). It is a method of permanent connection and is used in the interest of miniaturization and heat dissipation.

    Expansion memory is not a problem. You can use PC100 256 MB (PA3069U - 1 M 25) memory module.

    Good bye

  • The HD upgrade and memory issues - Satellite P200D - 10 p

    Don't cancel the warranty if I upgrade the hard disk and the memory of my laptop?

    Also is there anyway to merge two partitions on my hard drive into one without having to reformat the whole disc? For some reason, the hard disk was split into two. The installation of Vista on a 73 GB and I have 74 GB free on another partition.

    I want to upgrade the memory from 2 GB to 4 GB. What are the compatible memory modules (I model P200D - 10 p)?

    Hello

    By reformatting the hard drive you really upgrade the HD and increasing memory is a fairly simple process, so you should not invalidate your warranty.

    However if you open any part of the laptop including the crypt of memory you should make sure what you are doing and can get compatible memory, preferably set in correspondence cards.

    The software you need to merge partitions on your hard drive while running Vista is "Paragon Partition Manager. Symantec Partition Magic does not work with Vista. You don't need to reformat your hard drive, but you'd be advised to backup your critical data before the merger. A word of warning before you do anything, if the second partion maintains records of resettlement for Vista if you encounter a failure, then after you merged the two partitions, the files will remain but the relocation will not work. This is because when you insert the disc to reinstall it will search that partition. A round way, that it is to make an image of your drive before you do anything, then you can always copy of backup image and reinstall your Vista back to the factory setting.

    If you have noticed that I posted above ask you about a memory problem because I also want 2 GB to 4 GB, but it won't have it.

    Hope this helps

  • Satellite A300-15E overheats and turns off automatically

    Hello

    I am trying to solve a strange problem with a Toshiba Satellite A300-15E.

    For me, it's like the laptop overheating CPU. but I accept all suggestions on this subject.

    My customer told me that the laptop is very hot and it runs about 20 minutes then turns off.
    I disassembled it and clean the dust, put the thermal paste on the CPU and VGA.
    After mounting it turns on again and it stops more than a minute.

    My question is where I hurt, what I can do to solve this problem.

    10 x a lot.

    Hello

    Did you use the right thermal grease for the CPU?
    The compatible thermal grease: BU1 FCR - AS A000018310 THERMAL GREASE

    Are you sure that the thermal (cooling module) assy working properly?
    Compatible part must has a role: THERMAL ASSY A000031620 SA5

    In your case I would test the memory too...

  • Satellite A300 - dvd, usb and card reader does not work

    Help needed please.

    Have a laptop Satellite A300, running vista.

    Until a few weeks ago everything good, then noticed the cd did you not recognized and disk in it. The card reader can't find anything on the card (and Yes, the card was full.)

    The usb scanner is recognized as an external memory card and the other usb port does not fuction.

    I have not installed or don't remember changing of settings or do whatever it is the habit.

    Any help or thoughts would be appreciated.

    Hello

    Your ad is very confused.
    > Until a few weeks ago everything good, then noticed the cd did you not recognized and disk in it.
    Well, there are several reasons for this; It would be possible that the inserted disc is not completely compatible. Try different drives from different manufacturers.
    It would also be possible that the STRANGE laser lens is dirty. In this case, you might clean using a cotton ball and alcohol tip. In my case it helped.

    > The card reader can't find anything on the card (and Yes, the card was full).
    Did you use a compatible card? The laptop runs these cards:
    8MB - 2 GB SD card
    SDHC - 4 GB card
    -16 MB - 2 GB xD Picture card
    Memory Stick - 8MB - 256MB
    Memory Stick Pro - 256 MB - 2 GB
    MultiMediaCard - 8 MB - 1 GB
    miniSD (with SD adapter) - 32 MB - 2 GB

    I recommend also to format the card and to copy files from computer, and then test this.
    You can also reinstall and update the driver for the card reader controller...

    > The usb scanner is recognized as an external memory card
    Can't believe that you must use a scanner software (must be provided with the scanner) and have to test this unit. By the way; for the most part a scanner driver must be installed in order to use this

  • Satellite A300-1ED - upgrade CPU of PDC to C2D

    Hi all
    Small question. I still have six months toshiba warranty on my A300-1ED. laptop is very good. Never fail. But it lacks performance so I want to upgrade my PDC T2390 to some C2D processor.
    Tell me what model of C2D my A300-1ED runs (card mother and bios)? T7500? T5750? Frequency FSB? 667 or 800?

    Someone at - he do it before?

    Thanks for all the tips!

    Hello

    First of all, you will lose the warranty if you would disassemble the laptop!
    This should be clear to you.

    Then there is no guarantee that your laptop would go well and stable after this upgrade the CPU.
    I m thinking about issues of compatibility between the processor and BIOS since the BIOS was pretested with the other processors.

    However, I have read some threads here on the CPU upgrade and some users do that
    Seems that some laptops run without any big problems after upgrade CPU, but I think it's not consistent for all series

    As you can see, Cpu and Gpu upgrade is not a good idea. Even if your motherboard can handle it but the Bios is not pre-tested for her. In any case, you must contact the Asp (SAV), they can tell exactly whether it is supported or not.

  • Satellite A300-1AL - keyboard and touchpad issues after change of OS

    Hello

    I'm looking for suggestions or ideas how to deal with the problem of keyboard and the touchpad, which occurred just after I installed the new operating system. I changed from Windows Vista to Windows 7 and my keyboard and touchpad become inactive after a few minutes of starting the system. It is not serious if I write something or not, the unit works for a short time, then turn off automatically. I tried to find updates the driver but failed to come through what might be the solution. It is difficult to work with the screen keyboard so I hope that you will be able to help me.

    Thank you in advance,

    I have Satellite A300-1LI and I installed clean Win7 32-bit using the Microsoft installation disc and all devices are working properly including the keyboard and the touchpad.

    Have you installed Win7 upgrade or clean the Win7 version?
    Have you used Microsoft installation CD?
    In General, keyboard and touchpad must work without any additional driver.

    Now I use Windows7 trial version... I can install all drivers of vista, including the driver of the webcam... I can't open the camera assistant software. If I opened, it says 'Webcam driver open fail. "Please restart camera or computer. However, I can open webcam on yahoo messenger...

    How can I open the software assistant camera...?

    Help me..

    Don't think it's really a problem?
    I doubt that this is because Windows 7 is only a trial version and it is not a version of the end.

    Toshiba is not compatible Windows 7 beta and so you should do a downgrade to Vista or XP. Then your problem should be solved.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite A300 - USB port and fingerprints issue

    Hello

    I'm starting this thread that I have problems with my fingerprint reader and my USB port.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A300-C01 laoptop. It was purchased in September of last year. I have not used it much except for the first week I had it, I've been away (Overseas), and I didn't take my laptop with me (I took a former I). There is no chance that the laptop has been used so that I was absent because I live alone and that the cell phone was simply sitting in the computer room.

    I started using it again about 3 weeks. Around a week ago, I noticed a pop-up (bottom left of the screen) telling me that a USB port had problems. I put my FlashDrive on the first USB port and at first, it was not recognized. I tried with another flash drive I have and who has been recognized. However, every time I start the computer I get who pop up telling me that there is a problem with the USB port.

    I also met a problem with the fingerprint reader. A pop up appears in the lower left side of the screen and say that the fingerprint reader was having problems. Happened since then that the problem with my USB port began to appear. About an hour ago, I checked the Device Manager and the fingerprints fingerprints/biometrics scanner does not appear in Device Manager.

    Has anyone else had this type of problem?

    What did you do to solve it?

    I would appreciate comments that I have no other choice at this time until Monday when the Toshiba support is available (they are available Monday to Friday).

    Thanks in advance,

    Deanne.

    First of all, you should try to update the chipset drivers and software of fingerprint. The two you can find on the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    If it doesn't work you should try to update the BIOS. Check the Toshiba site for an update.

    In the worst case, you must reinstall the laptop with the Toshiba recovery disc. So you can make sure if it s a hardware issue or not.

    What should I do because you know that even if I can't get into the windows to uninstall this driver.

    Any way to do during windows startup?

    Hello

    Why you installed a driver for external keyboard? I've never heard of such drivers

    Anyway, you should try to start in safe mode and then you are able to remove driver external keyboard to the list of software. After I restarted in normal mode, the keyboard and the touchpad should work properly again.
