Satellite A300 - SPDIF disabled after installing XP

Hello again.

After I downgrade my A300 from Vista to XP everythings works fine.
Just one problem. My SPDIF no longer works.

No red lights, no possibility of he chose in the acoustic Panel...
I have installed the Toshiba page sounddrivers.

Someone counsel? New drivers or do I need?

Hello

To my knowledge, the S/PDIF is certainly available on this laptop, and you should be able to use it

I recommend that you install the Realtek audio driver from the Realtek page!
There should be a more recent version

Also, please check if you are using the latest version of the BIOS.

  • Satellite A300-1IK - installation after Windows I can't use the multimedia keys

    I tried to clean my laptop, so I installed Windows7 64-bit using my code, but now that I also donwloaded all drivers, I still can't use easy media keys (as for Windows Media Player, or those who must play/stop music, ect..)

    No one knows how to fix this?

    Hi dilettafornasiero,

    I think you forgot to install Toshiba value added Package this package contains the driver for these buttons (lighted) media where you can start Windows media player, for example.

    You should check the Web from Toshiba site again and search for VAP also indicated for Satellite A300. Download and install the package and after I restarted the lighted buttons should start working.

  • Re: Satellite P - CD/DVD drive has been disabled after installing itunes 8

    * Help *! After installing itunes 8 my CD/DVD/RW Drive has been disabled.

    It's already happened and I've restored by removing the upper filters and lower in the Vista registry but itunes then told me "the registry settings used by the iTunes for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing." and I can't seem to burn anything from itunes.

    There, nobody how to restore CD/DVD/RW drive and retain full use of itunes please?

    Have you tried reinstalling iTunes?
    Reinstall the old iTunes, restart the computer and clean using CCleaner. Then, you can install the latest version of iTunes.

    If it doesn't work try to remove upper and lower filters again. Maybe you should do this after you have reinstalled iTunes.

    Finally and above all, this might be useful for you:

  • Satellite A300 - 1 5 - after freeze on Vista eve

    Hello!

    I sometimes have the problem after sleep. When I opened the laptop only can move mouse but can't open anything and Vista freeze. Must turn off the laptop and turns on again.
    I have the latest version of the BIOS.

    How to solve the problem?

    Hello

    I never had this problem on my Satellite A300, but this happens only in sleep or hibernation mode too?

    It's really hard to say why this happens but make sure that you have installed all the software fixes for Vista and maybe you should try to reinstall Vista using Toshiba recovery disc. Maybe an application of part 3 is originally this gel.

  • Satellite A300-1J1 - how to install 2nd HARD drive?

    Hello

    I bought a Satellite A300 and I see in the workbook loads it is possible to add a 2nd hard drive. So I bought one and when I opened the box of hard drive, I have not found a connector to connect to my hard drive. I think I have to install a SATA connector, but I have not found a way to proceed.

    Thank you

    PS: Excuse me if you find mistakes, I don't speak very well

    Hey,.

    If there is no second SATA connector on the motherboard it s not possible to install 2nd HARD drive because you can t add such a motherboard connector.

    As far as I remember there are other threads on A300 and 2nd drive HARD here in the forum and the point is that all A300 using the same case for laptop, but the mothers are different. So you can have a 2nd HARD drive Bay but not connector.

  • Satellite A300 - black screen after long race

  • Re: Satellite A300 PSAGCA: how to install Win XP as 2nd OS

    Hey any reader for the first time and shows for the first time.
    My comp is the Satellite A300 PSAGCA-02U010

    You 2 questions, hopefully someone can help me with.

    The issue of the first: like many people, I hate Vista.
    How can I run XP as a second OS that don't live my warranty?

    2. the volume level is not very strong (sound) when you watch a DVD etc. I tried different settings, and every time I do I have to restart to take effect, which is a pain that vista is slow to restart. I have downloaded the driver, but noticed that it is exactly the same as what is installed already :(

    See you soon

    > How can I use as a second OS XP who don't live my warranty?
    Installing programs or operating system would not avoid the warranty!
    You can install the Win XP as second OS without fear.

    But before install you anything, I would recommend the Toshiba recovery disc creation!

    With regard to the sound:
    As far as I know the parameters which are changes in the player are not not in trouble. You must increase the volume of every time when you start the software again.
    But have you tested different actors? For example, VLC player is a simple and free tools.
    I recommend to test

  • Satellite A660 - slow start after installing Win7

    I have an A660. Satellite (model aus)

    I installed the 64 bit version of windows 7 and starting to take more than a minute. I was wonderign if I used a retail drive and used the serial number at the back of the computer laptop would it not be a better facility.
    Then, I would install just the stuff I need.

    Also, so I use a commercial version would drive recovery based HARD stop working? (because the commercial version may overweite some entries written in the section the drive boot HARD-now if I press 0 he goes to setup - if rerail version replaces this function would stop working?)

    Thanks heaps.

    Each Toshiba laptop comes with the Toshiba recovery image. This recovery image contains several specific Toshiba and utility tools that begin with OS and also some additional software.

    What you need now is the right configuration. With other words, you can remove the unnecessary software from the system and stop all applications, you need the startup list t.
    How to do this?
    Press WIN + R > write msconfig and confirm with OK. The system configuration will be open. Go to the Startup tab and clear the check box in front of app you n t need initially to the top.

    Of course, you can install a clean version of the OS, but for product activation, you can use the product key from the sticker. This license is for the version of Windows that you have with your laptop.
    HDD recovery works with the factory only settings. When you install the clean operating system, you will not be able to start. What you need to do is to create recovery DVDs after Toshiba s instruction how to do this.

    If you have any other questions please let us know.

  • New Satellite A300-14R frizzes in installing or using an application heavy

    Last week, I received my Toshiba Satellite A300-14R it al seems to work, but by installing or using a heavy application, the frozed just for laptop and I had to reset the computer. This happened a lot, then Saturday night, I installed Winrar or something while I was listening to music and it happened again, but I could not always reset the laptop so I took out the battery and the laptop could not resume. So I decided to send it to the dealer, he gave me a new.

    So, today, I received the new book, began installing new things and the forzed of the screen. I realized a picture with my phone to show what is happening on the screen.

    What should I do? I've updated everything in Vista.

    Sorry buddy but you're laptop computer real destroyer. ;)
    Of course, it's just a joke!

    Stand by. Such screen appears from the first second when you start your laptop?
    What happens if you install Vista using F8 and repair my computer in advanced startup parameters?
    The same thing again?

    Anyway, bring it back and ask for Exchange. This certainly isn't normal behavior.

  • Satellite A300 PSAGQE - pilot after uprgading to Win 7 errors

    I have a 'Toshiba Satellite A300 PSAGQE' 2 days ago, I updated my Windows Vista to Windows 7.
    A lot of driver are ok and works without problems, but 3 drivers are makin wrong as I have noticed.

    These are;
    Toshiba Firmware link Driver ACPI\TOS1901
    Ricoh RL5C592 Memory Stick Bus Host adapt
    Ricoh SD/MMC Host Controller RL5C843

    my "FN" does not work and the lights do not go!

    I searched the internet for solutions together and saw many people having the same trouble. There are problems but no solutions...

    I hope that I can help to Chester for the problems here.

    Hi Yol_Gezer,

    To be honest, for me it doesn t sound like problems because you only need new drivers for your laptop, they are listed on the page of Toshiba:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    You need to the card reader and driver Bluetooth I think.

    Regarding the FN and enlightenment, you must install Toshiba Value added Package. ;)

  • Can satellite A300 - 15 M - I install a second HDD?

    Hello.

    I have a SatelliteA300 - 15M. 2 years ago, I bought the laptop. I have the 250 GB hard drive that came with the laptop. Recently, I received my laptop in service of the local store. I noticed that there was an additional location to another hard drive. I saw a post that some of A300/A305 laptops have room for a second hard drive, but not the connectors.

    If someone has A300 - 15 M can they please tell me if I can install a second internal hard drive in my model? Is there a safe way to find if I can install a second hard drive?

    Hello

    > but no connectors.
    If the case is clear: If you don t have a second SATA connector, you can install a second HDD of the t.

    Also check the forum on these issues. The point is that a notebook series (e.g. Satellite A300) is always equipped with the same case, but the material is different. So not all models have the same features. ;)
