Satellite P10 554: broken inverter and market
Dear Group,
in recent weeks, I have massive probs with my p10 554 (2 years +).
The converter to display is broken and the display for the most part remains dark. No big problems so far, as the laptop is my secondary computer, not connected to a monitor. But: since this inverter quit working properly, I noticed, that the machine has problems starting...
By pressing the button WE're now more often without any effect on the system, ways, it feeds on. DC current, battery and leds are working properly, the two are lit in green, the battery is fully charged and DC is good.
I followed a little guide assistance procedures, but none of them has fixed the problem.
Sometimes - I don't see any chronological rule in this behavior - the power on works, but when I pass the laptop turned off later, I couldn't immediately turn it back to the.
Q: has the inverter broken some influence on the market, and if so, how can I bypass it? Or I have two problems here (a circuit feeding broke apart a broken inverter) and need to have some repair teacher.?
Thanks for any advice,
FIU
Hello
a broken inverter should not have any influence on turn on/off the laptop.
This problem can have several causes. So I think the best way would be to leave the machine to be checked by a service technician.
And by the way, you can only get a new inverter of a service partner.
Good bye

Hello
From your description, I think your device overheat and go down because he cannot be cooled properly. P 10 satellite is older and it's time to clean up. You can't imagine how much dust inside the unit you will find.
I put t know how are you familiar with this, but if you have no experience don t do it alone.

Satellite P10 554 LAN wireless connection
Hello people,
I have a laptop Satellite P10 554. I'm not able to get the wireless LAN. I have a Netgear wireless modem and a Netgear USB wireless "receiver". I have configured the entire setup and switched 'on' switch wireless on the left side of the laptop. Nothing happened. The light on the left side on the laptop that shows the availability of the wireless network never radiated.
I have installed and inserted into the mobile network.
Please advise on how should I proceed to get the wireless LAN working.
Thank you in advance.
MatelHello
As far as I know that the Wireless LAN is optional on this unit. This means that the appliance has been delivered without wireless card, but it s can put the card in the laptop.
Are you sure that your device has a wireless card? You can check in the Device Manager. In addition, must be on the wireless network by using the switch on the side of the laptop and the key combination FN + F8.Please check these options.
Good bye

Windows 7 on Satellite P10 554, need drivers
Hello
I installed a new Windows 7 on my Satellite P10 554.
Now I can not find some drivers for my device, in particular for the USB device,
who stands out, if I use an external hard drive.
In addition, I got an error code 28 for the base systemdevice (to 2 PCI bus) and
the performances of "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor', who is not the driver ACPI/CMP0101
compatible with W7.
What else can I do?Thanks for the reply
Hallo Lupi
I had Satellite P10 for the year 2003. So please don't get me wrong, but you have 6 years book, designed for Windows XP Home edition and now you ask you cannot find drivers for Win7.
What you can do? Nothing. This oldie is not supported for Win7.
Use the operating system that is supported and to be happy. If you want to use a more recent software I think it's time for the most recent material. ;)Satellite P10 is also really nice and absolutely reliable laptop.

Satellite P10 - 554 dvd - ram does not work
I got a Satellite P10 554, and as I said above the RAM does not work.
It should be a software problem, because if I reinstall the drivers it works a few minutes (it did until now yesterday it stopped completely)
It is impossible to install the new drivers or update a firmware somehow
(pilot: after rebooting, the old drivers are loaded again (but I uninstalled them))
(firmware update: I still got the message: invalid drive to update f/w)I hope that someone of you can help me ;)
Hello
What did you mean with the work of t car doesn?
You are not able to burn or read the media?The error message says it all. I think you re not able to update the firmware because the firmware is not supported on this drive.
Try to remove the drive from Device Manager, and then shut down the laptop.
Usually after restarting again the operating system should recognize the drive again.
If this does not help, you can try to remove the drive from the laptop. Turn on the unit, then go into windows. The reader should disappear. Then stop and reset the drive in the notebook. After this procedure the laptop must load the firmware again.It will be useful.

Satellite P10 554 does not start
Hello!
First of all, sorry for my bad English
The problem:
I installed windows XP Professional on my Satellite P10 554.
I bought it on ebay and the seller said that everything goes well with this laptop and the tests when I turn on the laptop saying the same thing.But after installing XP, it does not start!
It is the boot screen with the blue line that moves. This line moves a little, that it stop and that all the time and nothing happens!
I tried the same thing with XP home, and windows 2000, but it has the same problem!
I really need this phone. I hope someone can help me!Christian
> I bought it on eBay and the seller said that if everything goes well with this laptop and the tests when I turn on the laptop saying the same thing.
You said that the test says it of ok. How did you test it?
> It's the boot screen with the blue line that moves.
You mean the OS bar which moves while loads the OS. Am I wrong?
Hmm, if you have tested the laptop with Win XP and W2K then I guess that you have installed the two OS on this laptop and it was possible to install it?
Am I wrong?Sorry to say but if the laptop is unable to load the operating system the hardware would be a malfunction.
I think you should first check the memory modules, then the HARD drive. Maybe one of the modules does not work correctly or some bad sectors can cause the problem. -
Satellite P10 - Windows XP (SP3) and the use of the library
My Satellite P10 is vintage 2003 and Windows Media Center onboard.
Recently, when you try to log in to use the new possibilities of TV capture which are installed in line I was in charge I needed to upgrade to Windows Media Player 11 (or higher) to be able to watch these TV programs.After you download WM11 and try to load, I get the error message "you have Windows Media Center 2005 or later version to run WM11.
Someone else I have a problem and can I do (apart from dumping my P10 and purchase of a Mac (which is what my son told me to do!).)
Hello
Depending on your message, your laptop uses Windows Win XP MCE
Looks like you are using the old version which is 2003The providing of WMP11 error message says that you need the most recent version; 2005.
I think you simply update the Windows media Center.
For this, you can see this Microsoft Web site: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/updates/mediacenter.msp

Problem update satellite P10 554 to XP Pro
Hello
got the P10 554, with Windows XP Home Edition. Since I have my own copy of XP Pro and need additional components, which are NOT part of the home ed., I tried to update.
Works fine until the point where it says "Starting Windows". The progress bar runs out, the screen goes black and not more disk access hard and CD.
Everyone runs into that as well, or is there a solution for this problem?
Thanks in advance,

Satellite P10 554 turns off, can't start again, but the lights still burning
My P10 554 stops after a few minutes. After that, I can't restart, but led lights are always on fire. When I'm waiting for a few minutes or a few hours, then I can restart my laptop once again, but it spans about one or two minutes and then stops himself again...
I thought about a problem with the fan or something like that, but why the led still is on fire after stopping? What can I do?
If the AC adapter is plugged in to the computer some LEDS are usually on. For example the battery LED lights up green when it s fully charged.
However, it s not usual that the laptop stops after several minutes of race and for me it certainly looks like a hardware failure.The problem is just a common user like me and you is not usually able to fix or to locate the fault. You certainly need a help of a technician with a lot more experience.
The guys from the ASP can run diagnostic tests and are able to find out what's wrong on the Board. -
Satellite P10 554 problem intel wireless 2200BG
Hello
I ve got a P10-554 and tried to install a mini-PCI Intel 2200BG card. the driver is correct installed but the work of won´t-hardware switch. I have could´t turn on the wireless card.
in another P10 554 a 2100 b card work very well.
Anyone know why?
Hello
It is possible that new generation cards cannot be activated by a wireless switch. I'm not sure that f happens only with Intel adapters. Please check in Device Manager if the card is recognized and installed correctly. If so try to establish a wireless connection.
I'm sure it should work correctly.

Questions about Satellite P10 554
Hello
I have 2 questions about my P10-554. I read on this forum but can't find anything that helps out me.
First of all:
When I try to turn the unit off after working, using even the closing of xp function or the power button, windows normally quit, but when it needs to turn off just reboot again. If I repeat the closing down directly after this restart, normally it turns off.
This problem occur only when I use the power supply in battery mode.
I can't say that to me...Second:
I have a mini PCI Wlan card for my unit, works very well, but I wonder if it is possible to get the Wlan switch switch work whith it? Or is it only possible whith some special maps? It is not so important, but it would be nice to know if there is a trick or something to get the switch used.Best regards
GabbagandalfHello
Regarding your first question;
I'm a bit confused of m are sure you n t use the restart option?
I never noticed anything like that on my laptopUsually, if I use the Shut down option, I can choose between standby, hibernation, restart and shutdown. If I use the stop that the laptop turns off as it should.
Maybe it's time to s for a reinstallation of the OS?On the second question.
The switch on the left side for laptop was designed and developed to pass on the WLan card antenna.
Usually, you should be able to use this switch and to toggle WLan card functionalityDon t understand why it should not work? :|

Satellite P10 554: what does "removable devices" on average of start menu?
Hello
My DVD burner does not work, so I have no chance to install Windows XP from the recovery disks. I tried to boot from external DVD writer, but the device is not recognized. Similarly a bootable USB key.
That means Toshiba with "removable devices"? Or I made a mistake?
Thanks for your replies.
Best regards
FrankAs far as I know Satellite P10 and P20 have removable optical drive. You can remove the CD/DVD drive and put it inside the floppy drive and use it as first boot device.

Satellite P10 554 Display driver
I use my laptop to produce movies from privat with a program called Studio of Pinnacle. Until Version 9 it worked well. Now on the latest version 10 inside monitor see the didn t movies of my camera. When you start the program, I get a note that the display driver NVIDIA GEforce FX Go5600 must be updated. The Toshiba 4.4.8.5 driver version is installed.
Is there a higher update available and where I can download this?Concerning
HansjurgenHello
Sorry, but Toshiba does not provide a new display driver for the P10. But you can look for a more recent laptop with the same graphics card, maybe he has a newer driver that will work in the P10. Or you can use the driver from the nVidia website, but be careful, it is not designed for laptops and can cause overheating.
