  You should know that it is not easy to provide an exactly fault diagnosis without putting his hands on her.
  What we can do is to provide some sort of suggestions

  So I think it could be a faulty battery, so first the battery should be checked.
  If problems still persist, then electronic power supply failure might be possible

  However, the equipment should be checked and this can be done by an ASP in your country
  It would be desirable to communicate with these guys and ask for help

  Good bye

• Satellite P100-286 - charge not completely even in stop...

  Hey all,.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite P100-286 and my problem is that when it s on and I plugged it load the light orange will be on indicating that the load and it will say connected load, but the battery life does not exceed 96%, yesterday he wouldn t go above 97%, and once again on the eve of 98% (lol) , the thing is when I have the laptop off and have supported (the witness orange still on indicate its charging) it will not load fully. When I turn on my laptop it is always 1% less than it was the last time I got it on as you can see by whats described above... I'm sorry for the long post, it of just quite difficult to explain.

  So can someone please help? Is it my battery what should replace is exhausting? Or is it something to do with the BIOS?
  Please help, thank you in advance for any response.

  Hello

  When the laptop is ON try to remove the battery and after a minute or two inside put once again. Please let me know what happens after that.
  To be honest, it is not easy to say why this happens exactly. I don't think THAT BIOS is responsible for this.

  Have you used the battery power intensively or your laptop worked mainly on feeding current?

• Can I use 2.1 speakers on my Satellite P100-286

• How to get 5.1 sound on Satellite P100-286

  I had to replace my old P100-347 of 2 months, because of cracks on the hinge. The only model they had available was the P100-286. It is almost identical, except one thing, that I was not informed until I got it home and so too late to resume.

  Basically, the P100-347 had a SPDIF port and the 286 (as far as I can see), does not work. So, what I want to know is, what kind of sound that I am able to get the decision-making helmet.

  I plugged my Dolby Digital amp, and everything seems to be able to get is 2 audio channels, when I would be able to get 5.1 channels... In fact, I would like to have SPDIF, but don't think it will happen.

  Can someone advise and give me some advice on solving this.

  Thanks in advance
  Steve

  On the Satellite P100-286 S/PDIF port is not available and if you want to have 5.1 surround sound you need to use an external solution connected to the USB port. Google around. You will find quite different products, that you can use with your laptop.

• Satellite P100-286: cannot change "Customization" options in the Panel

  Toshiba Satellite P100-286

  Hello guys!

  Can someone help to solve my problem? For some time, I am not able to change/enter in ma, for example: screensaver of personalization in Control Panel. I can use only 2 of 7 available in "Customization" options/links Could someone help me, please?

  "Customization" isn't the only one of all the icons I can't come. There is a bit more such as: keyboard, Mail, regional and Language Options etc. Looks like the links to each of them does not work for me! :(

  I don't want to go through reinstalling Windows Vista so any help to solve this problem will be greatly appreciated!

  Thank you very much!

  PS. one last thing, I tried to restore my system to the previous point, but I'm not able to do.

  Hello

  It is very strange to believe me, it's not easy to say why it happened and, therefore, we must study a little bit
  Did you install third-party applications on your laptop that could have a negative influence on the operating system?
  Have you changed the rights of account user or something like that?
  How about Antivirus applications? Always update you this software? Maybe it s a kind of virus

• Satellite P100-286 - upgrade to 4 GB of RAM but BIOS only reports 3 GB of RAM

  Hello, I would like to know if someone can help me...!

  I have a portable P100-286 Toshiba with the following specifications:

  Processor Intel Core 2 Duo processor T7200 - 2 x 2 GHz processor
  2 GB RAM (2 x 1048)
  NVIDIAÃ? GeForce Go 7900 (memory: 512 MB)
  Vista Home Premium 32-bit

  Full specifications here:
  http://UK.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/JSP/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=UK&DISC_MODEL=0 & highlightOption = 63188 & com decided .new = Yes .broadvision & PRODUCT_ID = 125204 #0

  According to this specification, the laptop can handle up to 4 GB of RAM:

  "Memory system: standard: 2 048 (1, 024 + 1, 024) MB, maximum of extension: 4 096 Mo, technology: DDR2 (533 MHz) RAM.

  I just upgraded using 2 x Corsair 2 GB of RAM Sodimm DDR2 667 MHz/PC2-5300. I understand that Vista 32 bit may not report all 4 GB of RAM (it is not, only 3 GB reports), but I understand that Vista Service Pack 1 can solve the problem.

  However... confusedly BIOS ALSO notes that 3 GB of RAM. Does anyone know why the BIOS is not seen all the 4 GB? I tried to read about it online, and some advocate a BIOS update. However, many people also say it would be extremely risky.

  Can someone give me some ideas as to what I can do to the BIOS then it recognizes all the 4 GB of RAM?

  Thank you very much!

  You're not 100% good. The 32-bit Windows OS cannot use the entire 4 GB due to the limitation of the 32-bit operating system. After the installation of Vista SP1 will display full 4GB but it will still use only 3 GB.
  To use all of the 4 GB, different components like CPU, BIOS, OS and chipset must support this. If one of these doesn't support 4GB while the laptop components will use only 3 GB.

  Update the BIOS

  People are right. The update of the BIOS must help to recognize the 4 GB in the BIOS.
  But it s also good that the update of the BIOS is risky.
  If you want to use a bad BIOS or bad procedure to update the BIOS that can damage the ROM. module

• Satellite Pro A40 - Video RAM

  Hello!
  I had an A40 used in the business to work outside the office. So far so good. Upgraded to 512 MB. Is it interesting to upgrade the graphics memory? System show 496 MB of RAM. This means that only 16 MB used for graphics. This figure shows 64 MB of RAM. What is true? And if I can pass the graphics memory to 32 MB for example - is it important? And how? How to enter the BIOS to change anything?
  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  as far as I know that your computer has a graphics card with 16 MB of video memory. This will automatically using the memory up to 64 MB additional system, if necessary.
  It is not possible to update the video RAM.

• Satellite P100-286 - how to get the Lan 1 Gbps with Vista speed

  Many critics say the latest range of P100 with Vista installed Gigabit Ethernet support.
  However, I have a P100-286 card Intel (r) PRO/100, which only seems to support 100 base.
  Can anyone suggest a way to get 1 Gbps on this laptop on LAN?

  Hello Allister

  Maybe I'm wrong, but in my opinion, you must wait for official Vista drivers, install them and after making this check the mobile functionality of any computer.

  Hello

  Is this original delivered by car or did you upgrade?
  By the way: as far as I know if you use the original recovery with original configuration hardware delivered media, everything should work well. If you change something about yourself, it is possible that something is wrong. Usually, for DVD player, it is not necessary to install a special driver and because of that, I'm a little confused why this message occurs at the beginning upward.

  Please give us more info on this drive.

• Satellite P100-286 - vertical on the screen restart and constant lines

  I got this P100-286 with Nvidia Geforce Go 7900 GS and recently the laptop started to freeze options even with vertical lines on the screen tried recovery cd tried to re - install and after installation, that he started to do the same. I have read similar problems in the forum and this is a common problem with Toshiba? I have spend £1500 on this and it is only 3 years old. My friends have older laptops of this almost 6 years old and in good working condition.
  Y at - it a suggestion for this problem or a solution? The heat on the basis of the laptop is really hot and it's like that for centuries.

  Any help is really appreciated after spending so much like to last longer or it is a problem of reliability with the Toshiba brand.

  Hi vns.

  Hmm strange. I have ever read on these issues here in the forum with Satellite P100. Friend of me has the same model and it s still does work correctly, no problems at all.

  Do you have the same vertical lines on a screen? If so, it is certainly associated with the internal graphics card and not watch.
  By the way: you have the same problem in the BIOS or just Windows?

  With regard to the heat on the underside: I think that it s time to clean it and remove dust. You can do this using the jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans. That's why it of not necessary to disassemble your laptop.

• Satellite P100-286: cannot use Bluetooth after installing XP

  I have a portable P100-286 Satellite with bluetooth. It used to work OK but since I re-installed Windows XP SP2 I can't use bluetooth.
  There is nothing in the control panel and nothing in the hardware Manager that mentions the bluetooth.

  I installed al the latest drivers and BIOS updates and still nothing.

  Does anyone have any ideas why I don't see bluetooth?

  I think that you didn't install the driver BT properly and didn t activate BT

  First download the pile of BT since this Toshiba BT Portal:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/Bluetooth/

  BT installation restart the laptop and turn it on by using the FN + F8 key combination!

  Hope that this will enable BT again

• Satellite P100: Memory Stick Duo Pro with MSD adapter is not recognized

  When I insert the CSDP in my Satellite P100-473-multi card reader - Vista preinstalled - (using an adapter MSD), the removable media is listed in the Solution Explorer, but the card cannot be read.
  With a 32 MB card, he pointed out that the card needs to be formatted first... but correct data are inside and must be visible.
  With 1 GB card, it reports that card is first inserted...

  Did anyone experienced this problem?

  Hello

  Have you checked the user manual you?
  Take a look at Chapter 8!
  There is information that the card reader is supported only SD; MMC; MS; Cards MS Pro and xD.

  As you can see that it supports the Memory Stick Pro, but not the Memory Stick Pro DUO!
