• What's new in BIOS 4.50 - Satellite P100-332

  Hi, one

  nyone know whats new features on the new BIOS for Satellite P100-332 4.50? Cause I try clicking on "Toshiba Bios information" and it just a loop back to the same web page... Is there anyone who knows what's new? or in a log file?

  I'm afraid that no one will be able to tell which changed in the BIOS because it seems that Toshiba does not provide details on the update of the BIOS and any change of
  I didn t find all the Web sites that could provide detailed information.

  However, if your laptop is running properly, you n don't need to update the BIOS

  I'm always that notice; never change a running system ;)

• Satellite P100-332: Upgrade HARD drive and 4 GB of RAM

  Hello

  I'm new to the forum...
  Well, I want to change 2 things on my Toshiba Satellite P100-332

  1. I have 2 GB of RAM at 533 mhz and I saw on Everest, as well as on the information that I put up. 4 GB RAM 667 mhz. If I want to ask if theres no limitation about to use a special brand of RAM? Or can I use any laptop RAM to 667 mhz? I buy 2 DIMM 2 GB 667, to stay with 4 GB RAM 667 mhz.

  2 - my laptop came with a 4200 RPM ATA hard drive and I want to know if I can change my hard drive to another as one with 7200 RPM SATA as a http://www.pcvonline.com/productDetails.aspx?prodID=7434 and I have not seen yet if the Board supports, but does anyone know if I can put one like this?

  Hello

  (1) the Satellite P100-332 RAM can be upgraded up to 4 GB and you can also use the modules of 667 Mhz because AFAIK the FSB supports 667 MHz also.
  But the fact is that Windows 32-bit (Vista and XP) would see only 3.2 GB due to the limitation of the 32 bit OS.

  (2) the laptop supports the SATA HDD controller and this is why you must use a SATA HDD. But usually it s no matter if the HDD SATA supports the 7200 RPM. In my opinion, you should be able to use these 7200 RPM HARD drive.

  Good bye

• Satellite P100-332: No OpenGL with Archicad 10

  Hello
  You could tell me when will be available drivers (vista) news for the 7900gs (I have the nVIDIA display driver v 9.7.4.8)
  because in archicad 10, when I left direct3D to OpenGl, freeze the screen.

  Thank you very much and sorry for my English.

  Hello

  I put t know when new Vista drivers are available for P100 but the Vista drivers for some A100 series have been already published. I think that it s a great sign and I think we should get the drivers in the next time

  By the way: on Toshiba Canada site you will also find the P100 series and there are some Vista drivers listed. There, you can also search and new graphics driver. Don t know if it is compatible with you series, but verification is free ;)

• Satellite P100-324 - GPU overheating due to fan does not work in the operating system

  Hello world.

  While trying to solve the problem of RAM of 4 GB ([this thread | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=28374&tstart=0]), I meet another weird thing - gpu overheating due to fan does not work in the operating system.

  Now, I restored the XP MCE using the Toshiba Recovery and I was VERY surprised to see that the problem still exists! As soon as loading the system GPU fan stops, and there is only tranquility. The application load is heavy on GPU and reaching 104 results by reducing its GPU and MEMORY clock values and NOT in the activation of the fan.

  The same thing happens in 64-bit gentoo. ACPI can be turned on or off, it is not serious, the GPU fan always dies as soon as the system load. In non-OS environments (bios, program of recovery, etc.) the fan works fine, GPU cooling from time to time.

  This problem occurs in versions of BIOS: 2.40, 4.00, 4.20.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated, since this laptop is my main working tool and I can't let go 14 days (service).

  I saw in your other thread that you have updated the BIOS and you have installed several different OS.

  Fact is that the BIOS v 4.2 package contains BIOS 32-bit and 64-bit OS.
  Your laptop has been preloaded with Win XP MCE 32 bit. Please use the 32-bit BIOS if the original XP MCE running on the laptop.

• Satellite P100-120 overheating running Linux Ubuntu 9.10

  Hello world

  I use Ubuntu 9.10 running on a laptop Toshiba Satellite P100-120; I have a problem of overheating and the fan never put to cool my laptop.
  Looking around, I found that several models of Toshiba Satellite have the same problem and I found that the only solution work seems to update the DSDT file by exploiting this feature on Linux kernels (kernel argument acpi = off is not a solution).

  The problem is that the current Linux kernel of Ubuntu distributions can't take no more (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/395239).
  Given that this problem seems to affect many models of Toshiba/people, I don't know that Toshiba has corrected it to a patch of BIOS; is there a reliable to tell me how I can find this patch?
  I think that we need a BIOS patch because I tried to read the DSDT and indeed it includes bugs (if compile you it with the compiler Intel as described, you can find them).

  Commands to show bugs:
  sudo cat/proc/acpi/dsdt > dsdt.dat
  sudo iasl d dsdt.dat
  sudo iasl tcs - a.dsl

  In the case that Toshiba does not provide a patch, can someone suggest me the reasons (I know that Toshiba is not officially compatible with Linux, but today the Linux community should be accompanied by resellers of computers)?

  Thanks in advance

  > In the case Toshiba does not provide a patch...
  That of the problem. Toshiba doesn't support Linux, especially not for this model of laptop, so you have to search solution elsewhere.
  Support Linux costs money, and why do we have if the books are not delivered with Linux.

  In my opinion the best place to find solution or pickup a few tips useful and info is specialized Linux forums and communities.
  What Toshiba about Linux, you will find under:

  The other pilots graphics from NVidia or ATI are not supported and usually these drivers should be used due to the risk of overheating graphics.

• Satellite P100: BSOD nv4_disp infinite loop playing a game

  Hello

  I hope you can see my details of my profiling system, but in case you can't, here are the basic details:

  Satellite P100-113; 2x2.0GHz; 2 GB of memory; XP Pro SP3. Go 7600 256 MB - factory core/mem speed 350 / 400 MHz - no overclocking.
  Out of warranty: purchased as a plant-reclamation in 2006. No problem at all until this - great machine!

  I tried for 2 weeks to resolve the formidable 'in nv4_disp infinite loop' blue screen of the problem of death, which occurs when playing company of Heroes Opposing Fronts (COHOF). Original COH has always run without any problem.

  I think I tracked down what is happening. Using RivaTuner, I took a log of data GPU, both in the general use of Windows and by practicing a COHOF game. I had just downloaded a "fix" claimed this infinite loop problem; referenced in the nvidia forum.
  I think it was the only reason that the game did not plant this time, so that I could look at the newspaper. But this has not yet resolved the problem.

  What is clear, according to the journal of Riva, it's the GPU speeds are usually 0/0 on Windows. Then, every few minutes, he crawls up to something like 198/135, for only 10-20 seconds and then again. This, in my opinion, has always happened, because it is accompanied by a rapid acceleration of the fan and a "sigh" to air for a few seconds. The machine has always done since I bought it, and it is not a problem in normal conditions (i.e. not game) use.

  But here'w what happened in the game. After playing about 30 minutes (I noted earlier), the game suddenly stuttered horribly, so I thought it might be breaking. FPS increased from typical of 30-40 something like 0.5 to 2 FPS. And this continued for another 15 minutes (I went to play, with gritted teeth, in order to obtain good log data).

  Looking at the newspaper of Riva, what happened at that time was one of these speed GPU rampdowns: down 351/398 expected 198/198 - just for about 15 seconds, then go back to the top to 351/398. Given that the "infinite loop" error includes a description "device driver entered an infinite loop waiting for the material to answer", I am fairly certain that it is the cause of the infinite loop BSOD: If the GPU suddenly decides to run at reduced speed in half, under heavy load (COHOF has often been described as the ultimate stress-test system) , you expect this kind of error occurs. I suspect that this is the point to which I would have had a crash "infinite loop" - but perhaps the 'fix', I downloaded caught the ball and prevented the usual total crash.

  Temperature: absolutely perfect. I use a Zalman cooler under the machine. Riva reports temperatures GPU 51 c (idle), maxing out at a constant C 66-68 without crampons (load, COHOF). So, my driver unless (I tried 84.4 - later, Toshiba or 91.33, 156.13, 164 something laptopvideo2go.com) is a misinterpretation of the temperature data and imagine that the card needs to be rested (because the driver thinks, it's hitting the ceiling of 115 HP.), is not an overheating problem.

  The fact that go up and down this rise has always happen, even with the original drivers installed at the factory from Toshiba (the regular intermittent fan 'sighs') makes me think that this is part of Toshiba design for integration of the Go 7600 in this machine. Perhaps something of the power management, or to extend the life of the chip. (I have all the settings of power-mgmt software I can find the value "grass of the battery, give me performance", since I usually use the machine plugged).

  Now, it of very well under Windows, does not cause problems. But he won't. The GPU is ramping down, without apparent reason, while COHOF is throwing a huge workload on it.

  Issues related to the:
  1. How can I disable this behavior ramp - at least temporarily to play COHOF? I've never heard of a GPU accelerates its speed goes up and down depending on the load, so I doubt it's problem of nVidia.
  2. can I get an updated driver for this machine? The most recent is 84.4.0. Of course, it is possible to download drivers from laptopvideo2go.com modded-, but I suspect that these pilots to leave out some specific Toshiba 'magical' that manages the specific details of this card in this machine. (p. ex. or SpeedFan and Riva can detect any fans in my system, which suggests that Toshiba took control of the fan "under the hood" somehow).
  3. where can I get an update BIOS/firmware for the Go 7600? You can find anything on the net, apart from that!

  Looks like I need to take this with a hardcore of Toshiba tech (I don't know if Toshiba supports log on this forum); But if someone reads this and has a time "click - I know that this", please post some ideas as to what I can do.

  Hey Buddy

  It seems that this Toshiba forum is only a user forum, and it seems there are only Toshiba users here and not technicians.

  In any case if I understand you problem described in your long ad, the graphic issue appears only this specific game (company of Heroes Opposing Fronts).

  In my opinion, the graphics driver is not fully compatible with this game or your game does not support the nVidia Driver
  So it s not a problem with the laptops hardware, but compatibility issues between the two parties game<->graphics driver software

  I think a graphics driver update (if available) might help.

  Here are my responses regarding the points:

  (1) as I said above, I think that the graphics driver update might help to
  (2) according to my experience, all the latest drivers graphics (and other drivers) are published on the Toshiba driver website
  (3) you can find only a Toshiba BIOS on the Toshiba driver page. BIOS or firmware update graphic card is unknown to me and to be honest I don t think it would exist.

  See you soon

• Satellite P100-307 - massive heat problem, keypad heater

  Had my Satellite P100-307 for almost two years now and it's a good and useful media-notebook, but it never HOT side left keyboard, especially games.

  But in recent weeks, the keyboard is pretty HOT and I don't know why! Because I6vgt ´m using only low level applications.

  I did a full restore to clean any virus or other malware, but it continues to get hot, as if I where in the highest graphics modes, the games, but just I m using IE7 and a LateX editor for the creation of PDF Documents - that s nothing for a dual-core processor! Kaspersky 7.0 has been throtteld down, as far as the security is allwoing it.

  So why it s heat like that in 30 to 60 Minutes. He has never done this before, I m sure.

  It s so hot, it's quite unpleasant to work with her, because placing even the heel of your hand next to the touchpad makes my hand sweating!

  Would be grateful for any comment or advice,

  Greetings

  Looks like the laptop is overheated, it is a common problem with laptops that are used in a dusty environment (a room with carpet, for example).

  Buy compressed air in a box and spray it in the vents to remove dust.

• No sound on a Satellite P100-324 using don't Win 7 64 bit

  Hi all

  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite P100 - 324.
  I installed Win 7 64 bit on this computer and I have problem with sound now.

  My sound does not work. I tried to install a driver but without result.
  I tried to download the driver from realtek but it was the same thing.

  Do you know how I can run on this PC?

  Thanks for your advice

  Hello

  Satellite P100-324 belongs to the series of PSPA6E.
  The European driver Toshiba page asserts that Realtek audio driver should be compatible.
  But the Realtek audio driver Toshiba on page is released for Win 7 32 bit, not 64-bit.

  I recommend the driver on the Realtek page. There you should find one that suits.

  You can also check the Dev ID and could find the compatible driver for internet.

  I would replace the internal hard drive to a larger size, but I don't know who is compatible.
  Here is a link to dabs where they have 5 hard drives, but not sure if they will work.

  Would be nice to get some tips on this thanks.

  Hello

  I downloaded the user manual for this laptop from the Toshiba page and it says that you can use the 160 GB HARD drive.
  I think that he n t be a problem to use a bigger like 200 HDD or 250 GB.

  Sat P100 supports a SATA HDD controller and you should therefore use the HARD drive 2.5 SATA.

• Satellite P100-463 and Intel VT

  HY

  I have a Satellite P100-463 laptop (model Nr. PSPA6E-03N01CGR), with Bios Version 2.7. Intel VT (virtualization) is disabled and Toshiba said there is no way to enable it.

  One of my friends has almost the same model P100-354 (model Nr. PSPA6E-03H01FGR), but with BIOS Version 2.4 and on this laptop VT works. Tool Intel said that :-)

  2 laptops have similar hardware (354 has a 2 GHz cpu, but VT should work on both).
  So, I do not understand that...? ! ? This is the Version of the BIOS? Is it possible to downgrade my BIOS.

  Thank you

  The point is not all processors support Intel virtualization technology.
  If the processor supports VT BIOS must contain this ON / OFF option.

  But if the BIOS does not support it ON / OFF option you should check the European driver Toshiba page and should update the BIOS!

  Then the power button VT should reappear.
