• Satellite P100-240: speakers do not work

  I have a Satellite P100-240 with built-in speakers. Recently the speakers worked intermittently with no control over the volume (the volume was extremely low). Now the speakers do not work at all, either from a cd or a sound system.

  Can you help me?

  Hello

  You must know that in such cases is really not possible to give a precise explanation. If the audio device is installed correctly and in Device Manager is not listed as problematic there must be a problem with the settings.

  First try to check all the sound settings and make sure that the mute box is not selected. Also check dial volume control. If everything is set to max level and no MUTE is ENABLED, please check the features that you use headphones.

  Please post the results.

• I need to find right laptop model-> similar to Satellite P100-240

  I have a Satellite P100-240.

  Q1 - my boss (a blind Lady) wants a model similar, but without the graphics power of the mine and a 15 "screen. Also, it must have a 102 keyboard keys.

  Is there such a model in the Satellite range?

  15.4 screen and keyboard 102?
  I m not 100% sure if this is possible.
  I know that several laptops but most laptops with screen 15.4 inches keyboard support the 86 emulation key/102.
  What about Satellite M40?

• Satellite P100-240: Media Center Edition - error 3

  I recently installed the Toshiba TV DVB, set up all channels and guides, then recorded a number of television programs.
  Unfortunately, when I have pulled up my Satellite P100-240 this morning to check the last recordings of nights, the Media Center told me that I had deleted all of my recordings.

  I tried to get the library going again without success.
  All I get is a window telling me that there may be essential audio and video files missing and he said that I should quote "error 3" when looking for support. ".
  I tried reinstalling the drivers, etc., but it just goes back to "error 3' anyone able to help?"

  It is a very strange question. To be honest I really don t know what happened with you Windows Media Center software.
  It s a program from Microsoft and my personal experience, sometimes inexplicable things

  What you could do is trying to roll back the BONE to this early time!
  Eventually a point system restore has been created and you can set the operating system on this point.

  I also recommend to check your recorded programs.
  Usually programs stored is located in the following folder:
  C:\Documents and Settings\ all TempSBE TV
  Maybe you could save these files.

• Windows not start successfully after updating BIOS on Satellite P100-240

  Hi all
  After you install a new version of BIOS my laptop wouldn't start windows xp properly.
  It just freezes in a screen black, I was able to go in safe mode, but then I reinstalled windows and now it's the same problem and I can't go in safe mode as I haven´t went through all the procedures of installation of windows.
  Please help me: I can reset the BIOS to my old?

  I use a satellite P100 - 240 (PSPA3E) and any help would be greatly appreciated.
  Thank you

  Hello

  What version of BIOS you have loaded? Version 4.20?

  Normally it shouldn´t do problems, especially after upgrading your BIOS. May I ask if the version of Windows installed on your machine you´d is on the media recovery or from scratch (from scratch means install with a genuine Windows CD and install the downloaded drivers)?

  If everything fails then send you the machine and let check the laptop on certain shortcomings of the BIOS.

• Satellite P100-240 audio problems

  Hello

  Y at - it software control panel Audio for this model? My friend M100 is a control software provided with the computer that has a wide range of variables to adjust sound its out put.
  On the other hand, nothing for this model except for standard windows volume set Panel. It just seems really strange what HD audio and no advanced to it control system. I tried searching on the web (for the SRS control or other stuff) and found nothing for this model.

  Another problem is that sometimes my audio quality is really bad, you can hear the sound Crackle not even at high volume, internal or external speaker. I tried to restore the couple machine time. Nothing has worked so far.

  my model is Satellite P100 - 240 PSPA3E. Windows MCE

  Please notify

  Concerning

  Laurent

  I guess you have an its installed realtek card. If so, then go to www.realtek.com.tw, download the latest driver for Realtek HD audio and install the driver after removing the sounddrivers of Toshiba.

  After that, you should also have a control panel that is accessible trough the "Control Panel".
  Here, you can set all the settings on your sound card.

  Welcome and good weekend

• Need drivers for Satellite P100-240

  HI I have a Satellite P100-240.

  I'm looking for drivers for this machine running MCE.
  In support, I can only find drivers for p100-PSPA0E / p100-PSPA3E / p100-PSPA6E
  are these the same drivers for my p100-240.
  Also made even the drivers for Vista on this series from Toshiba?

  Thank you
  Ozzy

  Hi Jonathan

  The laptop Satellite P100-240 is the series of PSPA3E-xxxx, so you have to use XP for PSPA3E P100 drivers.

  I've updated the Vista on my old Satellite phone and the Vista operating system works correctly I do not have any special drivers for Vista. I installed the Vista Intel Wlan driver only because the former was not recognized.

  I think that you should have no problems with Vista running, but if you will need Vista drivers you must wait. At the moment I put t found any

• Need for a disk to boot flash BIOS for Satellite P100-240

  I need to Flash my Satellite P100-240 on a bootable CD.
  The BIOS only I can find on this site must be run from windows.
  I have seen BIOS 4.40 for P100 on another Toshiba sites, for example:

  http://askiris.Toshiba.com/ToshibaSupportSite/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=2115 524xml & sliceId = & dialogid = 56504155 & stateId = 0% 200% 56506013 20

  But do not know if it is appropriate for P100-240.
  They seem to be named completely differently. Not sure if that's a thing based country.

  The BIOS in the mentioned link will be allowed to run on my p100-240?

  Your laptop is NOT American series but the European series and you must use the BIOS from the European driver Toshiba page!
  The incorrect BIOS may damage the BIOS ROM of portable module! And this would lead to the point where you wouldn t be able to boot the machine!
  This is why you should ALWAYS use the BIOS designed for this series of laptop!

  In addition, you won't find updates of the traditional BIOS on Toshiba page!
  There are only updates to the BIOS windows-based and you can update ONLY run under windows.

  If the notebook WHAT BIOS s cannot be updated to the Windows operating system, then you must contact the Toshiba technician and must ask for help!

  That's all you can do

• Can I put the Satellite P100-240 with internal fingerprint reader

  I have a Satellite P100-240.
  Although he did not come equipped with material to print finger scanning, it has clogged the hole in the box where he would go.
  So I wonder, can I get the hardware scanning separately and adapt it to the laptop?

  I don't see any option for the material to be sold separately on the Tosh site and I'm not even sure who makes the hardware for them so I can source it independently.

  Can we offer here advice or information on this operation?

  Hello

  You are right. Some P100 units support the fingerprint, and some units have been delivered without this feature.
  As I m not wrong not these fingerprints can be upgraded

  But to be 100% sure you should ask the local ASP (authorized service provider) for details.
  But in my opinion you can not put the laptop with fingerprint reader.

  Good bye

• Satellite P100-240 includes the numeric keypad, and HD Audio and HD video

  Hello

  I will soon buy a Toshiba Satellite P100-240 of LaptopsDirect with a memory upgrade. It says on the site Web of Toshiba, the P100 is not HD Audio and HD video and it also States that it does not include the numeric keypad. Is - this ture? The processor is good on this machine, I mean like a Core 2 Duo.

  It also comes with Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005, is it possible for me to get a buyout of Toshiba site upgrade

  I highly appreciate your replys
  Thank you
  Machanic

  Hello

  > Is the processor good on this machine, I mean like a Core 2 Duo

  The CPU is not better than Core 2 Due because he s successor to core Duo.
  Intel Core Duo processor T2400 1.83 GHz Yonah works on this laptop.
  You can check the detailed specifications of this CPU Intel page.

  In addition the unit supports audio chip type high-definition Intel Conexant CX20551-22.
  I put t know what you mean by HD video.
  Do you mean the HD player? The portable player is a simple DVD Super Multi drive (+/-R Double Layer) and it does not play any DVD HD

  You can also check this Toshiba page for more details:

• Satellite P100-240 only works with ACPI disabled

  Hello

  I recently bought a second hand P100-240.
  For a day, it worked very well, and I tested it with sisoft sandra, 3dmark, many games etc.
  All played well, and it was not overheating and really powerful.

  Then a day later, he just got started while I was using it. On reboot, it will reach point just sign into windows XP Media Center edition and then cut. Even in safe mode, exaclty the same thing would happen.
  I left it for a few hours, in which case it was overheated, but the same thing happened when I retested.

  I tried the live cd Knoppix, and initially it would turn off at halfway by starting.
  Then I tried to run the Knoppix with a "acpi = off" option and it starts very well!.

  Also, I have tried many BACK start-up based utils and these well everything worked.
  I tested the disk, the cpu (stress and burn in tests), memory (memtest). All tools ran fine and all tested ok (and the machine does not idle)

  I tried to install a copy of windows XP alongside XP MCE, but that on the installation screen lists the existing partitions, and the machine would just power off.

  So try the Knoppix ACPI thing, I tried to install Windows XP without ACPI (i.e. a STANDARD pc), and he got through the fine installation. Now, I have a fully functional laptop again and can play all the games etc like before. Everything I have disappeared are ACPI some associates of power options.

  Now, what I want to know, is this ACPI issue a collateral or the related issue of the BIOS?

  Im running 4.40 BIOS, which is the latest BIOS for the p100-240 (PSPA3E).

  Is there a previous BIOS, which is perhaps more stable and will work around this ACPI problem? But the confusion is how all it worked well for a day and a half at the start?

  Any thoughts would be helpful.

  Hello

  In my opinion, the laptop is closed due to a higher internal temperature!
  The point is that the laptop supports protection against overheating and sensors (ACPI Advanced Configuration and Power Management Interface) who would yell at the bottom of the unit automatically to prevent damage.

  You said that this happens all by playing a few games. This heavy application leads to higher heat dissipation and therefore the temperature rises.
  I think that you should first check your cooling modules if they are not clogged with dust and debris. A compressed air jet pourrait helps get rid of the dust.

  Second, you must use the graphics drivers from Toshiba because such driver was designed for the use of the laptop and controls the heat dissipation the GPU too.

• Satellite A660 Win7 - power management system action center is missing driver

  I replaced the battery on my laptop Toshiba A660-15J and a few months, is back with the battery high capacity and now Action Center 7 win keeps popping up with the message that I need to download and install the missing driver for power management system.

  The power supply has been replaced not at all, nothing has changed, except for the battery.

  Costs of light on the functions of the laptop, as it did before the battery change.
  It turns on and is red and after a few hours, it becomes white and the battery level shows that it is 100%

  The problem is that this center of windows 7 says that missing one driver ACER? -> WTF?

  The link to download it from DOES NOT

  It seems odd that the link that windows provides its on a site of acer, but since part´s manufacturers other´s manufacturers use it does not at all surprise me.

  I want just the clarification and confirmation of what I have to do here, and why to toshiba Service does not show this update?

  I read that the BIOS update can fix this, however there is NO bios update for my laptop.
  I have also contacted MICRO$ OFT but I'm still waiting for a response from them.

  I also read other messages on various toshiba forums that relate to this same problem, but they used to say that the model is not supported by toshiba in this country...

  I clicked on the link on this forum directly on the site of Toshiba Australia, so please do not tell me that my model is not supported on this forum of Toshiba Europe!

  The exact message:
  Download and install the driver for your power management system
  Your power management system is missing a driver.
  To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
  Press or click on to download the driver of the A + c + e + r society Web site
  Download and extract the driver files
  Type and click on save or save as, and then save the file to your desktop. If you can t choose where to save the file, you will need to find and copy it to your desktop. When you download files, most of the web browsers save them in the folder to download on your computer.

  > I replaced the battery on my laptop Toshiba A660-15J and a few months, is back with the battery high capacity and now Action Center 7 win keeps popping up with the message that I need to download and install the missing driver for power management system.

  Maybe that's the problem. The new battery is fully compatible?
  Satellite A660/15J is an Australian mobile phone model.
  Here, I found some accessories for this model:
  http://www.MyToshiba.com.au/products/computers/satellite/A660/psaw3a-15j06t/accessories

  Compatible battery are:
  Toshiba battery (12 cells / 9000mAh / Li-ion / 10.8V) PA3819U-1BRS

• Loose on Satellite P100-240 DC-In Jack

  I just noticed that my new Toshiba P100-240 laptoop has quite a 'loose' DC in socket - is not to lose in making decision, but the actual shooting itself.

  While she viewed etc and I don't miss the power or anything, I was wondering if this is normal, or if the plug must be rigid without movement.

  P100-240 users can let me know if their is the same?

  Post edited by: 2002standardmat

  Hello

  I put t know if this appears on another unit P100, but something similar happens on my laptop's brother.
  The power jack on the laptop was lost.
  It was a new laptop so I was recommended to contact the service.
  The technician said that the screw is just a little loose and therefore the vacillee DC Jack.

  Possibly it of identical on your laptop, but I think that it s not terrible.

• Need of Windows Vista on Satellite M30X Toshiba power management tools

  Hi all

  recently switched to Windows Vista with my Satellite M30X.
  Unfortunately I can't manage my power options, because Windows doesn't let me do for the original use Toshiba machine tools to the place, but those with my laptop, I received are not compatible with Vista.
  There are no files available in this category on the download from Toshiba site.

  Do you have any ideas where to get these tools? Toshiba, or something different, but still compatible with Toshiba and Vista?
  Or at least how do to enable advanced power management options in Windows?

  Thank you very much for all the advice!
  Martin

  Hello

  Toshiba Power saver for Vista is not out for Satellite M30X, and it seems that you use clean Vista power options.
  But to be honest, clean Vista power options aren't bad and can be configured easily.

  Best regards
