• Satellite A60-122 - does boot and the screen has lines on it

  Hello!

  I have a Toshiba A60-122 PSA60E model. Pentium 4 HT. 1 GB of memory, 80 GB hard drive. BIOS 1.7.

  The problem is that it hangs on until the Windows XP logo appears, then the choice of Windows is displayed, I try safe mode, but does not work either.
  And then decided to have a specific format but still the same problem, and even the recovery CD does not either.
  I noticed that the screen has lines on the subject. Toshiba Logo appear when booting, you can see the columns of the row.

  Can someone help with my problem? Any idea?
  And by the way, I want to update my bios to 1.9, but the problem is that I can't find the traditional BIOS update on initialize to top.

  Thank you.

  Do you have these lines of the screen on an external monitor too or only on the screen LCD internal?
  It sounds like a hardware problem, but if you can determine if it s a LCD or motherboard problem. Check it!

  And by the way, what do you mean if you say that it doesn't work? You can see something on the screen and you get a BSOD?

  Maybe the problem is with the motherboard or HARD drive. You can test the HARD drive by using the Drive Fitness Test (Google is your friend).

• Error on the screen and blue ati2dvag.dll - Satellite A60-122

  Hello
  I have problems with the ati device driver. I have ati mobility radeon 7000 igp and it keeps send me errors. Either the monitor turns blue, warning of the problem caused by ati2dvag.dll and said it caused a loop infinit or resolution of the screen turns into 16 bits and the mouse becomes very slow.
  When I send the error report, tells using windows to look for a driver updated in windows update, but there is not.
  I also noticed that the laptop overheats and sometimes, especially when I look at DVD turns off by itself. I don't know if these problems are related in some way, but they are certainly my only issues with my laptop.
  Thank you

  Try to connect the external monitor, and please use the FN + F5 keyboard shortcut.
  Maybe you'll be able to see something on the screen.
  If this isn't the case, using ASP is therefore absolutely essential.

• Microsoft Bluetooth Mouse with my Satellite A60-122 issue

  Hi there;
  I'm a new user in this forum and this is my situation:

  I bought a Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer with a USB Bluetooth adapter. When I plug the Bluetooth adapter to one of my four USB ports, bluetooth connection seems fine. However, I can't work with my new mouse. I have try all this on a Mac computer and mouse everything goes perfectly. I have not yet installed the driver! I don't know what is happening. I had installed the driver several times and it seems OK. DC when I search the mouse over the icon of bluetooth device, I see him there. However, the mouse does not work and when I open again the icon of bluetooth device, I can't see the connection bluetooth mouse more.

  My question was already posted by Sorin11 (08.12.05), and I would like to know if today, hopefully there is a solution to this problem of bluetooth.

  Thank you
  Antonio

  Hello

  Well, the Satellite A60-122 has no Bluetooth. In this case, you will need to use the 3rd Bluetooth driver and the device.
  In addition, the Mac has a completely different operating system and you can not compare the two devices.
  Unfortunately, I can't give you a correct answer, why this problem occurs. You should check if you are using the correct drivers. You should especially drivers for Windows OS.
  In my opinion, you should ask the manufacturers of the ItelliMouse for the support.

• Satellite A60-122: screen does not work - rest black

  Hello!!

  Can someone help me please on a screen problem? I have a Toshiba Satellite A60-122 and when I turn it on the screen does not work. It remains black as if the power of the laptop was turned off. I tried to connect the laptop to an external monitor, but it still does not work. I have no more ideas of what can do to make it work.

  I already told to format the pc with the cd of restoration but without an image, it is impossible to do anything...
  Thank you

  Isabel

  Hello Isabel

  I'm not an expert, but if there is no image on LCD internal display and the external monitor, I assume that there is a problem with the graphics card. I think you should contact the customer Service of your country partner and let check the device.

  I also hope that the warranty is still valid and if something needs to be replaced they will do it for free.

  Bye and let us know if you have more information about it.

• Satellite A60-122: Matsu will be * a work of drive UJ-820 s with Vista OS

  Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor proudces the following about the Matsu report * a DVD-RAM UJ-820 s Super MULTI Drive on my laptop Toshiba Satellite A60-122:

  Model: CD-ROM unit
  Manufacturer: (Standard CD-ROM units)
  Measures to be taken: after the installation of Windows Vista, this feature will not work. To get the latest driver, go to the website of the manufacturer of the device or contact your dealer.

  Anyone tried this drive with Microsoft Windows Vista?
  Is it true that the drive does not at all with Microsoft Windows Vista?

  If so, how can I fix?
  Thank you.

  Hello

  I n t have A60, but I can't believe this. Side using the standard Microsoft driver and I really don't see any reason why your ODD shouldn't work.

  Why you test it n t? Back up all your data and install the version of 30 days to see how it can manage your laptop with Windows Vista. I did it with my Satellite M70 well that my laptop has no Vista capable sticker.

• Satellite A60-122 turns off immediately

  Hi there, my 2.5 year satellite SA60-122 turns off no aparent reason.
  Sometimes after 10 minutes and sometimes after 3 hours.

  Why o why?

  Does anyone have an idea?

  Thnx a lot.

  Hello

  you are somewhat familiar with computers? If not, I suggest you bring your machine to a local service partner (http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_gaspLocator.jsp?subs=tais)
  If Yes, then firstly make a few hardwaretests. You can make them with tools like "Memtest86" for memory or "Prime95" for CPU and RAM.
  This software is on a windows live cd for computer-maintenance as the UBCD4Win (Ultimate Boot CD for Windows) which contains a lot of useful tools and diagnostic programs.
  Here´s a link:
  www.UBCD4Win.com

  Other means can be:
  Clean the CPU fan, try to remove the RAM (maybe), maybe the power adapter is defective or maybe the battery.
  It s a little more difficult to find these things, but often it s really good to use this live-cd-system and check the system.

  So, try it (or not :)) and give some information about what happened, maybe to give more detailed information about the behavior of the machine.)

• Satellite A200-1FL: cooler starts and stops every minute only with battery

  Hello.

  I just bought an A200-1FL and I test these days. I noticed that the cooler starts and stops every minute about when I use it only with the battery.

  Disconnected from the power, even if I do not have too much, just browse the Internet. Is this normal?

  If I work with trendy food, the cooler makes no noise.

  Thank you.

  Hello David

  Do you also have it tested with different profiles in power options (balanced, power saver, high performance)?

• Satellite A60-122: end of production?

  I really want to know when this laptop is at the stop in production. I need to know this, because I would buy an A60-122, but still need some time to get the money to buy it. Issue 2: is there a book (from Toshiba of course) which is comparible or better then the A60-122 in this price category.

  Thank you

  Hello

  in my opinion only Toshiba can directly tell you when production of this laptop has stopped, but when the production is stopped mobile phone dealer has a number of movies xxx in stock. In the end, watch, when production is complete if you can find a special offer at google!

  But if you will not get these Toshiba laptop will send you an other models which are faster for the same price!

  2:
  You can go to http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com - produced and look around!
  You can also go to http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com and choose your country!

  There is also the possibility to see the price!

  For mine, I can say that the A50 is a beautiful machine (Centrino or Celeron M, Intel Extreme graphics and 512 MB of RAM).
  Also the Satellite Pro A40 with a 3.06 P4, Intel 852GM 64 MB, 256 MB of RAM and a 40 GB HARD drive.

  But in my opinion, you must choose your laptop for your own because only you know what you want! :-)

• Satellite A60-155 - powers on and then stops

  Hey guys,.

  I hope someone can help me with a problem with my old Toshiba Satellite A60 - 155.

  Recently, I sold my laptop on EBay, which worked perfectly at the time. When the buyer received the laptop, they found that is more things would turn out.
  Now that I got the laptop and actually like it buyer said that he will not start.

  When you press the power button the laptop seems to power on all the fans seem to turn, but the screen remains blank and after a few seconds it will turn off. I tried to remove the hard drive, battery and memory, and it didn't seem to help.

  I noticed that the power button is not lit blue as it should, in my opinion.
  I wonder if it has been damaged during transport, as it worked perfectly when I modified it used?

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  This problem can refer to different material defects
  First the RAM may be damage
  One of my friends had a faulty RAM module and the laptop could light up or the air conditioner stops immediately after pressing the power button.
  The new RAM modules to solve this

  In your case the CPU or the motherboard might be affected too
  As you can see, it of not possible to say what part failures! You may need to visit a few technicians who could test the appliance and parts

• Satellite A60 - do not start after power supply fault!

  Hello

  I know it's a long shot, but here's the situation!
  I had a Toshiba Satellite A60 PSA60E for repair.

  He had the power plug inserted into the back of the case of the break taking, damaging U4 and hit 3 resistors.

  I have now replaced the socket, transplanted the resitors counsel doner and welded in a new IC (U4).

  Now when I turn on I get the LED illuminating as expected (Inc. that blue on the power button) but nothing on the screen, no fan, no disk buzzing etc away.

  Ideally, I would like to try subing cpu etc but don't have any alternative to play with.

  If any ideas whatelse could be wrong on that?

  Not sure I want to risk the cost of a new motherboard (that they is availible) or that it would be interesting to the replacement of the machine.

  Look forward to some good advice
  Thanks Jon

  Hi Jon

  Unfortunately, I n t think that someone here in the forum will give you a precise answer and provide the solution it seems that it s a motherboard problem.
  As you know that the computer motherboards are complex parts with many electronic details.
  It of impossible to say what could be the problem on the Board without any detailed controls.

  To my knowledge, card repair mother is not so easy and expensive so you should not pay for the repairs, but buy a new Board of Directors which is covered by the warranty or second hand board which is much cheaper
