Satellite P100-221: problem with driver battery composite microsoft

Hello

I have problem with my satellite p100-221! A few days ago I had problems with my audio driver (audio conexant high definition), after starting it was indicates that the pilot of his failed to initialize, I reinstaleed this driver several times and at last it was working OK, but I noticed that windows does not see the battery.

The small cell in the status bar disappeared and I can not say for how long can I use laptop with battery. Laptop works as if it is connected to the AC. In the Device Manager appeared an exclamation on the battery composite microsoft.

I tried to renew the drivers but nothing. I deleted combatt.sys and cmbatt.sys in windows\system32\drivers but they appear again. I started in safe mode deleted, but after normal start, they do not appear. I also deleted them in Device Manager, and after start-up, this device did not and do not ask me to install the drivers.

What can I do?

Hello

I noticed that you did a lot of complex changes to your device. You deleted some files, update drivers, etc..
I guess that your operating system has been enough installed and worked properly.
Windows XP supports a system restore tool. This tool allows you to roll back the OS to the beginning.
In my opinion, you should try to use this option. Maybe he'll bring your laptop at the time where everything worked correctly.

  • Satellite P100-202: problems with screen again

    Hi all! I write about a problem with the screen of my Toshiba P100-202. I recently posted in the thread "Satellite P100-202: screen will freeze" and my current problem is actually quite similar to what is explained in the thread "Satellite P100-119: display no longer works. Here is my story, hoping someone can help me avoid having to send the computer to a technician:
    I decided after my previous problem, get my screen replaced. Everything seemed fine, except on the occaisonal instances, especially when I was using the "Internet Explorer" program, in which the screen sort of will re-start, IE. everything went black for a few seconds (music, etc. However would continue) then (boom) everything should reappear, sometimes in ultra - zoom for a second or two. The computer (OS = Windows 7) would report "problem with NVIDIA graphics driver", and then the operations would continue normally. This happened several times, but not often, and I was not too worried about it. Then, a few days before, I was using the latest release candidate of Internet Explorer 9 and the screen is blacked out and my music has continued and I thought 'OK, no problem' and then after a few seconds, and then the music stopped (and I thought ' uh - oh ') and then the blue screen of death.
    OK, don't panic, reboot, but of course there is no word of welcome, no nothing, just a blank screen, with the backlight still works created a worrisome greyish tint. And then suddenly the mouse appears, followed by the entire screen, so I unwisely rejected the incident. Ten minutes later, same thing and this time, not even the blue screen of death as consolement, just gray nothingness.
    A few days of rest, a dusting of battery, but no, even if I think the operating system works very well (caps lock light work and little purrs and snoring occur as usual), he has no doubt about the fact that the screen is not working.
    PS Sorry if my message is too long, and no, I don't have access to an external display!

    While I'm at it, someone is able to explain why a battery lasting 25 minutes can take several hours or even days to recharge?

    Unfortunately I can not offer a final solution or diagnosis, but I think you should test the functionality with the original recovery image (recovery DVD) you have with your laptop.

    Install the OS using this disc and test functionality. If the same thing happen over and over again there must be a hardware problem.
    If you need to bring the laptop to the service ask first how much cost repair. Maybe it will be too expensive and you can buy the new laptop instead of paying lots of money to repair this old model of laptop.

  • Satellite P100-347 - problem with the judgment during the game

    I have a problem with my (pspa6e) Satellite P100-347

    After about 10 minutes of play time with games like battlefield 2, the SIMS2 and so on... my pc stops...
    I knew it was close because of high gpu or cpu temp...

    I felt that my laptop was warm, but after playing for a while its normal...

    So I installed HWmonitor to check my gpu, CPU and disk hard temp...

    That's what I show:

    THRM: 61.C - 141.F

    CPU: core0\1 - two 64.C - 147.F

    GPU: turn 85 stable - 90.C
    This normal use... no games...

    HARD DRIVE: 39.C

    Something must be wrong! GPU temp is too high?
    I tried a fresh install of the OS...

    Thnx for all the help and answers!

    Hmm these times can be a little high.

    Most likely there is dust in the radiator. You can use compressed air to remove it. Or as a miracle solution, blow into the vents dust closes in contrast to air circulation.

  • Satellite P100-487: problem with audio drivers for Windows XP Home 3.11.0.51 - entered

    Hello

    I have problem with this audio drivers 3.11.0.51. The problem is that the output works perfectly but there is no entry.

    When can I expect from the good work on Toshiba support drivers?

    My way to have entry and exit works well is: first install 3.11.0.51 drivers from Toshiba site to install Support Intel 3.14.0.50 and do not restart after the installation. It's hard because every time when I restart the PC I have to for this making begin.

    Anyone have the same problem and found another job drivers?

    Thank you

    HI Supportneeded,

    You gave me the trick with the driver to resolve the problem in the next restart.
    And I replied to your thread Thursday evening at 20:30. Ask you Toshiba phone when we can expect new drivers. (I have a Satego P100-10F) I added a complaint of litte that Toshiba should also support a 'old' OS like XP. And after that at 21:00 the detachment was completely absent.

    Anyway, I tested some drivers of other manufacturers and other Chipsetdrivers, still the same problem.
    the sound with this material does not work on XP due to a rather bad.

    Of course, toshiba brings out a new driver that will feature at the end of February, but now it is March and I see nothing. (stop: a new driver for Windows Vista is online since yesterday)
    I had it installed on xp and the sound is completely down. Whether in - or output.

    you already called toshiba support when they expect our problems?

    Greetings

  • Satellite P100-221: Question about the version of the graphics driver

    Hello

    I have the Satellite P100-221 (PSPA6E-013010RU).
    There is a new update for nVidia 7900GS card driver available (8.4.0.0, 27/07/06) in the Russian section of www.toshiba.com.

    But the number is still 8.4.0.0, as it was before.
    Do you mean the driver has not been modified too much, or is it a new revision?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Satellite P100 is a very recent laptop right now and the drivers have to be to date. In this case, I think that the drivers on the Toshiba page are even similar on your laptop. The date indicates only the version on the page.

    Anyway, you should always check the numbers of versions of drivers and compare until you install it on the device.
    Maybe the drivers are preinstalled and you don't need to reinstall the same version.

  • Satellite P100-221 NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 TV-Out problem

    Hi, I have Toshiba Satellite P100-221, with NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GS, it has a tv (S-video) output, I had cable & connected & nothing appears on television, & when I go to advanced settings & see the video card options, I found that nothing related to the modification of the display to the TV or anything...
    When I looked in the manual, I found all the explanation based on NVIDIA GeForce Go 7500 :(
    I also tried Fn + F5 & choose the TV also, nothing happens, knowing also that the cable I got one side S-video, & the other side completely normal video in cable
    Help, please
    & thx a lot

    Post edited by: gak_7

    Hello

    First, you must connect the laptop with Palm of TV s-video cable. Then, go to the TV with the FN + F5 key combination. Select TV and LCD.
    Then you must enable the feature s-video on the TV (consult the manual of your TV). Without activating the s-video on the TV, you will not be able to see something.
    This should work on NVIDIA GeForce Go 7500 and 7900!

  • Problems with the battery / Satellite A100 - 151 (PSAA9)

    Hello!

    My Toshiba laptop 3/4 years, has had problems with the battery. Battery does not charge properly and to start windows, the laptop down even when the battery is at 70%. Normal use without AC is not possible. The first 3 months, the laptop worked well with no battery problems.

    I hope to get help for my problem.

    Greetings

    Sebastian

    Hi Sebastian

    Maybe is the problem on the battery itself. Without a lot of discussion, I recommend you contact the Service partner in your country. I hope you will get free new battery due to valid warranty.

  • Satellite P100-221: FN key combinations do not work properly

    Hello

    I have the satellite p100-221 with pre-installed Win XP MCE. After a week of using my computer, a problem with the function keys blue appeared. FN - f1, fn - f2 and all the other fn keys combinations do not work properly. They seem to work, I can change the brightness, switch the touchpad on and out and so on, but no icon on the Info screen appears. While pressing the combination of function keys, the icons on the screen shows the time. How can I solve this problem? Is it software or hardware related?

    Thanks for any help.

    Hello

    I put t think that this question is related to the material.
    I recommend the update of the Hotkey utility.
    On the page of the Toshiba driver I found two different versions:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU

    Your device is Satellite P100-221, then I guess the extra number must be PSPA6E.
    Do not forget that you are using the correct drivers for this device.

  • Satellite P100-221: want to know some more info

    Hello
    I am interested in toshiba p100-221 and I also like the Qosmio F30-112

    I heard that toshiba used parts cheap in their laptops to reduce the price. Is this true?

    I see people complaining about the keyboard on the p100-221 problem. Is it possible to get rid of this problem?

    I am facing problem to decide which laptop to buy. What people do you propose? I'll be back for the Qosmio F30 or the Satellite P100-221?

    Please help me with this and give me some suggesstion with appropriate patterns

    Hello

    As far as I know Toshiba use own coins in notebooks with a very good quality.
    I think that the parts are produced in different countries such as the Philippines or Taiwan or China to reduce costs. But all manufacturers do. The products are developed and produced abroad.
    You asked for on the P100 keyboard problems. I read a few topics, and it seems that the update of the BIOS will solve this problem.

    However, if you n t know what laptop you want to buy then I recommend you check the properties of the laptop. How do use you the laptop? You want a portable laptop for a trip or you want a laptop that you use only at home as a desktop PC? Do you want a laptop for gaming or just for office work?
    These issues are important and you need to deliberate what laptop you will buy.

    The two laptops are really nice with a good performance.

  • Satellite P100-221: TV Out & Windows update

    Hey everybody,

    I have Satellite P100-221 and I have 2 problems:

    1. I connect my computer laptop to the TV using the S-video via the S-video port cable, then when I press Fn + F5 it gives me the entire options, including CRT, LCD/CRT, LCD/TV & TV then I select TV and nothing happened at one of the laptop screen and the TV screen. I tried several times and it does not work, if any body can help me in this matter and if there are actions should be made in the display properties, I would be much appreciated.

    2 - operating system laptop is Windows XP Media Center, and whenever I try to connect the windows update server it gives me an error update failure, someone has an idea of what is causing this problem, I would be grateful.

    Thank you...

    Hello

    You you properly connected portable TV and have you enabled the s-video on the TV?

    Have you checked if it s possible to switch to the TV via the Nvidia nView Desktop Manager?
    This option that you can find in the control panel. There must be an option to turn on the TV.
    You can also try to update the hotkey utility. The P100-221 is a series of PSPA6E. Do not forget that you are using the correct driver.

    But a question: have you used the Toshiba OS or have you installed the operating system from the Microsoft CD?

    I can t tell a lot about the failure of update. Maybe something wrong on the inputs of server or Microsoft registry on your device. Try to search the knowledge base Microsoft for similar problems.

    I put t living in London and I m also not England but I can't believe that you're not able to buy this laptop in London.
    You will find in London without a doubt a laptop store. Am I wrong?

  • Satellite U400 - 10L: problem with the start-up & reboot

    Hello

    Well I don't like much about the touchpad overheating but I have a problem. When I restart this mobo instead of activate after a reboot it stays black without any reaction only lower diods, dvd - rom and the display flashes (can't hear fan or hard drive).

    If I press the power button / stop all the icons of diod (ac, pwr, hdd bat) shine up just for a second and new (can't hear the fan hard drive or cpu) computer does not turn on. All this happened only when AC cable is connected to the power if I use just notebook power source battery boots and restart without problems.

    If I remove battery completely from the laptop, once more, I get the same symptoms (cannot start). And the saddest part of this story is the fact that I got brand new Toshiba U400 10 L to the seller and got a new.
    It has the exact same problem.
    As you all probably understand im crazy because in the last two days, I tried really everything, including the BIOS without flashing and the success.

    Well im not sure whats going on, but this could be the problem with the battery or a bad contact?
    Any ideas?
    I would return it back?

    Thanks much for the reply

    Hello

    The behavior of your laptop is really strange and I suppose it might be bound only to a hardware problem.

    A friend of mine couldn't t start the laptop connected to the AC adapter the power adapter is faulty. It was only possible to start Notepad using the battery, and only if the battery was not completely empty.

    I put t know if your AC adapter failures but the authorized service provider should definitely check out the laptop and accessory for laptop (AC adapter).

    Then call the ASP in your country and ask the technicians for later handling.
