  Hi mate

  First, you will need to update the BIOS to the current state.
  To do this, see European driver of Toshiba.

  Then update the WLan driver;
  Here you can find the latest version:

  I recommend also using a tool like Intel ProSet WLan configuration for example.
  Rest your WLan router and check if the WiFi network is not hidden.
  Delete all settings of encryption, but only for the test!

  Activate the WLan using FN + F8 and use that locates the switch next to the laptop.

  If the test is successful, then you can activate the security on the router WLan

• Satellite P100-387: how reintall Windows XP Media Center Edition

  Hello

  I work with P100-387. Today, I realized, that there is a problem with the new upgrades for windows and update for Office 2007. I'm not able to open Word. Excel is workin, Power Point also. Opening remarks, the remains of screen splash long (about 3-4 minutes), the menu is being loaded, but when I try to click on something... does not.
  I tried to delete some KB, but nothing helped. I have downloade also all the updates for Office 2007 - still does not.

  If the last option is to reinstall Windows. Please tell me how to do?

  I tried using the recovery disk, but I scare: there is that my HARD drive will be formatted in a single partition of message (for the time being, I have 4, and I want to do all the time with all the data). My goal is to format only C: (the system) and install the fresh news or Windows XP MCE.

  Please give a solution, how to solve this problem.

  Best regards

  > I tried using the recovery disk, but I scare: there is that my HARD drive will be formatted in a single partition of message

  Well generally it of true the recovery CD would be to format the whole HARD drive and erase all partitions and set the laptop to factory settings.

  But the question is; what recovery CD Toshiba do you have? I presume that it is the new version of the recovery CD because the laptop Satellite P100-387 is not very old.

  You can choose between the Standard recovery mode and Expert mode?
  Using the expert mode you should be able to choose the partition where the operating system would be installed.

  But if it is not able to choose between these two recovery modes, then I guess you have the new recovery called RECO CD and there is no other choice than to format the whole HARD drive. In this case, the backup of the data would be desirable

  Of course, you can use the original CD of Microsoft. Using this CD, you will be able to install the OS on the single partition without format the whole HARD disk.

  Best regards

• I can't install the drivers on the Satellite P100-387

  When you install the drivers on a laptop computer error message Satellite P100-387.
  The operating system has been installed from the disk.

  You can then write in Russian?

  I don t understand Russian and in this forum you can post ONLY in English! So please respect it!

  On your screenshot, I see that you tried to install a driver from nVidia.
  You have to use and install the graphics drivers from the Toshiba page!
  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.

• Can satellite P100-387 - I use a solid state drive?

  Is it possible to change the disk hard original toshiba satellite P100-387 with new SSD. i.e.: Kingston SSDNow V-Series 128 GB?

  Hello

  Hmm generally, it shouldn't be a problem since the P100 supports a SATA HDD controller.
  To be honest I n t have an SSD and I can't say that an SSD can work properly, but theoretically it should not be a problem because the BIOS shouldn't differences between a common SATA HDD or SSD SATA.

• Fingerprints and the remote control supported on Satellite P100-387

  P100-387 has a fingerprint and the remote? Please, someone answer me.
  Thank you.

  Hello

  To my knowledge, the Satellite P100-387 does not support the fingerprint reader and is not supplied with the remote control.
  But you're right.
  The fingerprints and the remote control are optional and some laptops in the P100 series support fingerprint reader and are delivered with command remotely.

• Satellite P100 - 387 CPU fan works like crazy

  Hi all
  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite P100-387. I bought it with 2 friends. The same model.

  The problem exists only in 2 of the 3 laptops. It looks like this. When I start the machine everything is ok. While windows starts cpu cooler (or video card cooler if it exists) starts to work. If the fan starts to work the low speed at the highest. And did it for 5 - 10 times. Then a few minutes break and again. It's really noisy. It seems that when you insert a CD or a DVD.

  It goes like this also when windows is started. No high consumption of CPU, the fan works like crazy. Start at full speed for 2-3 seconds, then for 1 second and still the same.

  Everyone has the same 'characteristic '?
  What is this Toshiba Power Saver software works with p100-387?

  Hello

  I P100-109 close to me and I noticed the same thing. There is no difference between preinstalled WXP or Vista and because of this, I assume that this is a normal behavior. I know it's sometimes troubling, but unfortunately you have to live with it.

• Squeak inside the Satellite P100-387

  I updated the BIOS in my laptop P100-387, to version 3.30 (from probably 2.20). After that, I hear a silent scream, especially on the left side of the laptop. The intensity of squeak has changed when I run glxgear (in linux with opengl support) and resize the window. The grinding is not audible when the window is maximized.

  This happens on windows and linux. The State of the battery makes a difference.

  I would like to know if there is a Posibility to damage the material. Also, I would like to know if you plan to perform another a BIOS update. If this isn't the case, then where can I find the original version of the BIOS (I forgot to backup)?

  I don't want to send my laptop in the service of the technique, because I can't stay without a computer for 1 month or more.

  Hi Peter

  At first, I just want to say that if you write these questions to Toshiba, you're on the wrong place here. This is a user forum and no place where you can talk directly with Toshiba.

  It is not easy to discuss some strange noises because here on the forum, no one can imagine how it sounds and the best solution is to contact the service and deal with this issue. Of course there is possibility of damaging the material, but here on the forum person cannot confirm with certainty.

  One last thing on BIOS. There is just the latest version of the BIOS available on download from Toshiba site, and you will not be able to find an old. Speak with the service. They can help you and maybe all this ca be repaired in a few days. Please do not panic, make a call!

• 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.

  Hi Qazam

  How did you test the remote control?
  What do you mean who does not? Some functions does not work or a complete remote control cannot be used?

  I read the user manual and it seems that the remote will work under Windows mode with WinDVD or Express Media player, and Windows Media Player when the laptop was not started in the Windows operating system.

• Satellite P100-160 - system does not boot

  Hi all

  I was hoping someone may be able to help me with a problem I have with my Satellite P100-160.
  I was using it the other night without power connected when my battery ran out and he stopped.
  When I reconnected the power and it works I got the usual message asking if I wanted to start as normal I did.
  To do this i Gets the icon in the lower right corner telling me the system was trying to install a new mass storage device driver.

  He couldn't find it and I haven't added or removed something in my system.
  When I stopped and went to the re - start the next time, I received a message on the start screen in the sense of:
  error
  conflict of resources - controllers USB bus pci motherboard bus: 0a, device: function 04:01

  error
  resource conflict - controller mass storage of the pci on motherboard bus: 0a, device 04 function 02

  error
  resources - bus pci motherboard conflict: 0a, device: 04, function 03

  Press F1 to resume F2 to Setup

  I cannot go into the installer, but if I take the system just hangs and stop all the hard disk activity. I have managed to do successfully start once but no more, can't get into safe mode or anything. When I have it at my local computer store the guy he looked the error and said: it's broken, the motherboard has gone and there is nothing I can do with it. Im very disappointed that the laptop is only 2 years old and I would have thought that it would last longer than that.

  So my question s are the right guys, it's broken or is there something that can be done with it? If it is broken I can access the contents of my hard drive with another laptop (the guy from the store said something on to using a hard disk enclosure and use it as an external hard drive?)

  Thanks in advance for any advice

  Hello

  It seems that the motherboard is affected
  In the message error - bus motherboard pci resource conflict: 0a, device: 04, function 03 the motherboard is mentioned, so everything looks like motherboard failure.
  But to be 100% sure you should ask the authorized Toshiba service provider of the opinion.

  Good luck

• Satellite M50 bridge-126 slot not available, why?

  A few months ago in the brochure of the satellite m50 - 126 it was specified that he was available a slot multibridge for sd cards memory sticks etc etc. I bought recently athat model a week ago and the multibridge slot is not available on my laptop. Why?

  Hello Alessio

  I understand you, but I checked your information and I find that Bridge Media Slot is optional and unfortunately you bought the device without it.

  You won't believe me, but sometimes it is according to the country where the laptop will be offered.

  Good bye

• Satellite Pro A200-PSAE7E is not grateful USB Sennheiser Headset

  Can someone let me know why my toshiba Satellite Pro A200 - PSAE7E is not auto recognition USB Sennheiser headphones?

  What do you mean with grateful self their? As far I know Sennheiser those with USB connection built into the sound card, and therefore, you will need to install the drivers.

  Sennheisers as well, but with normal stereo jack and not the USB ones. You may edit the specific model name.
  And to check if your system is your helmet in any case, go to control panel - system - device manager and see if something changes, when you plug in your headphones.

• Satellite P100-387: are what compatible GPU

  Can someone answer my question, pls, is it compatible with any GPU with the toshiba p100-387 out of NVidia 7600 go?
  I'll be really grateful if someone told me the answer =)

  Unfortunately buddy
  The replacement of the GPU or the upgrade is not possible if something goes wrong with the graphics card, then the whole motherboard must be replaced.
  In most cases, the GPU is soldered on the motherboard and cannot be deleted.

  See you soon
