• Satellite P10-873 - no sound after reinstalling windows device

  Satellite P10 873 PSP 16th:-not his Device
  Win XP-Home Edition SP2

  Everything was going well until a bad sector on the hard drive. I have Ran Chkdsk /r and re-installed windows.

  In Control Panel/System/Hardware/Device Manager it is a unknown device in the sound,.
  Section of video and games controllers which I think can be unit XT of SRS truesurround.
  also Realtek AC97 sound devices shown as correct and functional.

  Tried to load the audio drivers from the website of Toshiba (sound-s-p10-xp-510005490) and still no audio device

  available from the configuration/sounds and Audio devices Control Panel.
  Got the patch KB888111 from Microsoft and installed, still no luck.

  Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong please?

  Satellite P10 is old enough laptop model. I have very good experiences with P20. It's almost the same laptop, but a bit bigger. A friend of mine uses P10 for the job and we have installed WXP Pro using all the tricks of the Toshiba support page. The OS is installed two years ago, and the sound still works.

  If you can not get this to work, I recommend you remove all the important data for the D partition or save on an external device and make the clean OS install. It will be interesting to see if the problem persists.

  By the way: is a connected to your laptop satellite external game controller?
  An interesting solution, I found here.

• ATI Radeon Mobility Core/memory clock speeds - Satellite P10 873

  I have a portable Satellite P10 873 using 64 MB Radeon 9700 Mobility GPU, the base clock is set at 400 and 200 memory. The chip must be run to 450/260 so if anyone from Toshiba is reading this can you tell me if the cooling of the Gpu is sufficient for these speeds (judging by the traces of burning on my thighs could well be unlikely)?

  Is also the 64 MB expandable to 128 MB of VRAM?

  Hi Carmel

  First of all the graphics card is a small chip that attaches to the motherboard.
  The graphics card has no own cooling system. Only the CPU has a cooling fan.

  Toshiba recommends to use the graphic driver Toshiba because the drivers are changed and support an overheating protection. In this case the graphics driver controls the heat produced by the graphics card.
  In this case, it s undesirable to overclock the graphics card. If you want to overclock something so do it at your own RISK

• Satellite P10 873 LAN wireless connection

  Hi all

  I have a laptop Satellite P10 873. I just bought a Netgear DG834GT wireless modem/router and can not get completely connected to the internet via Tiscali (ISP).
  The problem manifests itself in what I can connect to the router and can even ping various sites on the net. But trying to connect to a site using MSIE I just get "unable to connect" rejection page
  In addition, using the CMD prompt, tempting a Telnet session to a web site on port 80 is rejected for example "80 www.bt.com.
  I put all the securities to a minimum without effect.
  I have another laptop that connects and works perfectly with the Netgear/Ticali Installer. I also identically configured MSIE on both machines without success.

  Anyone has any ideas what could be the cause?

  Thanks Mike

  Hello

  Well, do you have Devil WLan configurations?
  If you use the Windows settings you must activate it in the WLAN properties and if you are using a customer this option should be disabled.
  Also, check if the windows firewall is disabled. This option please the good state of market for the wireless card
  Sorry, I put t have other ideas.

  Good bye

• Satellite A660-18 freezes randomly

  My Satellite A660-18 freezes randomly especially when I play games or watch video.
  Also sometimes when I'm just passing the mouse. He is 1-2 times a week/2 weeks. When it happens the screen freezes but the audio on for a while and does not react to any keypress so I have to manually turn it works.

  I don't think it's a graphics card overheating issue, as happens sometimes in just a few minutes after I turn on my laptop and I use a cooler pad as well.

  Hello

  This sometimes happens, it means that you can't reproduce it, which means that it s really hard to tell what could cause this.
  Theoretically, it could be just a software problem. Perhaps only the registry is damaged.
  In this case, the new OS installation must be carried out.

  Of course it could be also related to memory: to test the RAM by using some tools such as mem86 + or similar.
  Also, make sure the HARD drive; for this, you can use the tool called Drive Fitness Test.

• Satellite P10 keeps freezing upwards

  Hi I need help, my Satellite P10 series keeps crashing in recent weeks. I run a defrag, and error checked the laptop. I also deleted many files to free up space and I'm not sure what to do.

  Most of the time it crashes, it just freezes, sometimes I let a time - in case it is just a moment 'normal' than laptops, but it's just frozen! I have to stop it, and of course I continue to lose data because of this!

  Can someone help me?

  Hello

  Maybe it's a problem of overheating of s. have you checked the cooling fans?
  If there is a dust or debris so the cooling vents don't work properly and can't cool the inside of the laptop.
  You can use a vacuum cleaner to clean the fans. Maybe it helps.

  Please let me know if it works.

  Best regards

• Satellite L450D keeps freezing randomly

  Hello

  I recently bought a L450D refurbished: Win 7 64 bit, 4 GB ram, 2.1 Ghz AMD dual core, it works much faster than my Toshiba 1 year anyway.

  The problem is, it keeps freezing randomly. When this happens the screen looks like the picture in the link, mouse and keyboard are completely insensitive, but I left it and the battery is flat it beep?

  

  So far I've only updated windows, it is the partition of Toshiba hard disk but f8 during the startup does not seem to do anything and when I tried to write the recovery disc it burned but said unable to end of file during the verification step.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated,
  Thank you

  Hello

  Mobile on the photo looks like a problem with a graphics chip.

  Maybe the laptop freezes because of the high temperature of the GPU. What do you think that?

  Have you noticed a higher temperature?

  If Yes, try to clean the cooling fans using a jet of compressed air you should also try an update of the display.

• Satellite P10 873: power supply and CPU Overload

  I have the laptop of P10 - 873 for 4 months.
  The problem is that it turns off when it is connected to an electrical outlet.
  I can only work using the battery. When the battery goes out I normally load (with the laptop turned off) and then I use the notebook only with the battery again.
  If I connect it to AC power turns off after 3 minutes!

  I checked the CPU usage when connected to the AC and it seems that the CPU is too important (from 65 to 98% - where it stops!) without running applications other than the process required for the laptop to operate.

  I sent the laptop to TOSHIBA and they returned saying that they have updated the BIOS.
  Unfortunately, the problem was not fixed!

  Do you have any suggestions?

  Hello christina123.

  Sylvain is right. It is not a problem with the bios.
  I think it's a problem with the motherboard.

  Good bye

• Unable to connect satellite P10 - 873 to 802.11 Wlan N Router

  I can't get my P10 873 to work with my 802.11n router.
  The current Protocol inside this laptop's 802.11 g.

  In my view, there is a way to reconfigure the settings, but my knowledge is lacking in this area.
  Everybody out there is able to offer advice, or do I need a new laptop computer?

  Hello

  You can't connect the laptop via a WLAN router 802.11 N because the card wifi does not support this standard WLan!

  As you mentioned the wireless network adapter supports 802.11 G and it's different from 802.11 N

  Therefore, change the Wlan standard in the configuration of the router for 802.11 G in order to connect to the laptop wireless.

  See you soon

• Satellite P300 - 161 freeze randomly.

  Hi all

  I have some problem with my Satellite P300-161.
  He is running on MS Vista and I get random freezing with the computer laptop everything.

  By freezing, I hear every application that runs past to the mode "not responding" and it freezes for about 10 seconds, then after 10 seconds or so everything will return to normal. HOWEVER, sometimes in frozen mode, I can thaw the laptop while hitting / drawing the space next to the touchpad... I know it's bad, but it's the best way to solve this problem.

  Is there anyone who knows why it freezes like that? Internal hardware problem? This component is under the area as I type?

  Oh I should add also that when he is in frozen mode, there is this very very slight hum from the laptop, that noise disappears as soon as the laptop stops freezing.

  Thanks in advance.

  PS. I uninstalled the operating system more twice if the OS is not the problem as I know.

  Why create the son second on the same topic?
  I think that you should not create different threads and should follow your first discussion:

• Annoying beep of Satellite P10 873

  Hi, im this annoying beep intermittently from my toshiba, ive had more than 3 years and over the last 3 months or so this started beep to sound.

  It looks like a number being pressed on a pad of phone, very loud sound and the most annoying numbering and occurs randomly.

  Some days I don't hear it at all.
  I searched on through all the settings for modems, and system sounds.

  Control Panel and programs to no result and ive heard when nothing is connected to the pc to avoid externel gadgets

  Also I searched this problem a few times and there is no apparent answer, my supermulti drive cannot read CD more but it can burn, it is said that every cd I put in that is a blank CD - r, it reads the dvd but cannot burn DVDs and it will not read ram dvd more all solutions outside a new drive?

  It looks like a serious hardware issue... you spilled some liquid top? Such a sound comes from a key that is pressed constantly, this may also occur when keys are stuck because of some dirt in the keyboard or liquid that has dried and is today a sort of 'super-key-glue' that allows keys get stuck.

  Did you notice that some keys are "suspended"?
  Regarding your disk: have you ever tried a few updated firmware? And this is surely more interesting: what programs burning or cd player for the applications you have installed?

• Satellite P10 873 cannot read SD cards > 1 GB?

  Cannot find a driver more recent for Secure Digital host controller so left with a problem of my laptop just hung when I insert a 2 GB SD in there. Anyone know a solution to this problem or do I just use the USB drive instead of the built-in slot?

  Cheers: o).

  I think that the old models with the internal sd card reader are not able to read larger SD cards.
  My old Satellite does not read 1 GB SD cards ;( I just bought an external USB card reader and it works like a dream
  These devices are cheap and very easy

  PS: I put t know if it will work, but you can try to install a driver of SD host control card of a new series of laptop.

• SD slot no longer works on my Satellite P10 873

  Hello.

  Tried to update the driver for the SD slot to read my 2 GB card and now it won't even read a 128 MB card correctly. The directory structure looks ok but Explorer crashes just with IO errors.

  Tried uninstall the SDA controller driver and install again but not look (although he says it's working properly).

  Tried to install the driver from the download section, but under IDE channels v2.04 SD memory card, the Device Manager indicates that it could not start (code 10) although I don't remember be installed before anyway. Just the controller driver is not enough?

  I hope someone can give me some clue!

  TIA

  The controller driver SD memory must be installed first.
  After the SD - mem controller driver is installed, you can install the SD memory card driver.
  In my view, the error code 10 appears because you tried to install the memory card driver, but the driver control host has not been installed.

  On the Toshiba page I found only a SD for W2k, not WinXP host controller.
  How have you used the card with Windows XP before the update of the host controller?

  Format you the SD card with another device?
  Have you tried to format the card 128 MB with SD card formatting utility?
  Check it!

  If this does not help, you can try to remove the control from the SD card from the Device Manager.
  Then restart the device and try to reinstall the driver of original host control.
  Control another laptop drivers for driver control compatible host SD for WinXP
