• Stream video slowdown and going out of sync on Satellite P100 - 434 Vista

  I have a Satellite P100-434 pre-loaded with Windows Vista and WinDVD. During playback of DVD video, the video stream slows and goes badly synchronized with audio after a short period of normal play.

  The video then jumps and will be back in sync for a short time before going off again. I found references to this on a general search of the web with the only offer the solution of reloading with XP.

  I confirmed that with Windows XP Home edition, the problem does not occur, and with Vista it always happens with PowerDVD v7 good than not as pronounced. I would like suggestions as to the cause and possible solutions.

  Well, what to say seems the Vista itself or the drivers are responsible for this problem!
  As you already suggested the use of the Win XP operating system would be simpler!

  Anyway, the laptop uses the nVIDIA GeForce Go7600 FX card. Then first try to update the graphics driver and check a few improvements!
  Try to use the drivers from the site omegadrivers.net

  In addition I recommend you disable the acoustic silencer maybe it would help

• Satellite P100 and connect to my Netgear router wnr834b

  Hello

  I have a Satellite P100-429 with the intel pro wireless 3945abg.

  Basically, everything is turned on, but I have questions.
  I can only connect to the router if its position on the floor, standing upward, to an outside wall and between dispay wooden unit and a phone wooden stands with a cordless phone digital idect x 1.

  If I have the router a couple of inches, it loses its connection, then it is impossible to connect to new weird ey.

  The driver in the wireless Pro is 10.1.0.13, not sure if I should update the driver.

  When I do a search of wireless signals in the area, my router is trying to contact it says unable to contact I update and then it disappears and takes several upgrades to appear sometimes just restart the ISST makes the router appear but still won't connect unless it is in a position, that I told you about.

  p.s. the channel on the router is 3.

  I'm in the United Kingdom

  Hello

  It seems not to be a problem of laptop, but to me it looks like a range of WLan problem.
  However, try disabling the saving on the wireless network card. You can find it in the WLan card properties.
  Further consult the Intel site for update driver and use the Intel Proset utility to configure Wlan.
  Could also test the performance of Wlan without using encryption of Wlan.

  You know, it's not easy to tell exactly what could be the problem. We need to look a little

• Satellite P100-188: how to perform the procedure for recovery of the product?

  Hello

  I just had a bit of trouble to install a piece of software that, in the end I could settle with a system restore. This process was worried at the time that I could not get the software uninstalled properly (I had to download a program from the machine to uninstall!)

  At one point, I considered the restoration of my laptop Satellite P100-188 with the product recovery disc, the thing is I never did this before and I was wondering if someone could tell me the best sequence for later use.

  I have a standard Windows Media Center Edition OS, a recovery disk of the product, a disk Express Media Player and a CD of Drivers and tools that I created when I got the laptop.

  I have a feeling telling to restore Express Media Player before Windows, is does that mean that I have to insert this disc, install Express Media Player, then insert recovery disk product to install Windows?

  The Express Media Player disc formats the drive? It's not clear to me and I don't want to run into problems when I finally don't have to reinstall my operating system.

  I searched this forum to see if this information was already posted and could not find all the relevant information, all I can find are problems with the help of recovery and lack of discs discs.

  If it has been posted before could you provide me a link and I'm sorry again calls for data.

  Hello Gary

  If you want to have own OS preinstalled, the best solution is to use supplied recovery media. If the Express media player works well the leave it as it is and use the recovery DVDs only for clean operating system installation. All that s!

  Tools and Utilities CD can be used if you need to reinstall Toshiba designed tools or if you want to install your own operating system by using the facilities of Microsoft CD. If you have any other questions please post again.

• Satellite P100-437, Vista and Geforce Go 7900GS

  Recently, I bought the laptop P100-437. It was very expensive and was bought for playing games.
  Before buying, I watched if someone had problems with it and I can't find anything even on this forum so I decided to buy it.

  It seemed like a good choice.
  Unfortunately, after a few hours, when I'm lance 3d mark I noticed something is wrong.
  Display driver was bad, so I tried to change it.

  I only have a few days, until I ive this laptop back shop in Exchange for a few others. Probably not Toshiba and any Nvidia graphics card.

  Laptop was purchased with Vista32bit.
  Problem is low 3d performance caused by graphic slow downs almot every 4 s to which fps drop-down drastickly.

  Thanks for your comments.

  Sometimes it s really funny to read "probably not Toshiba and any Nvidia graphics card. About the manufacturer of the graphics card, you have no choices.
  There are JUST Nvidia and ATI, and I promise you, that they have almost the same problems in the mobile sector.

  Won´t resolve you whatever it is avoiding a brand, and it does not matter if I say Toshiba, Big Apple, Nvidia, ATI, etc...
  Rather to deal with your problem and Don t cry around. Maybe your problem is easy to solve, and you just need the key to the resolution.

  The first thing is, each manufacturer can say: it is a cell phone game. But my experience in the last years, wasn't that laptops just above $4000 are perhaps good for games, because
  the technique of these machines above $ 4,000 is the same thing that in my office which is really top-of-the-cream, but costs only 1900-2400 dollars (including my screen 22 '')
  I just want to show you what is really a dear. Don t be disappointed with your machine. You will be disappointed with EACH manufacturer, when you think that buy you
  a laptop that is a heavy game machine. NO GO!
  It is surely games that you can play, but don t expect too MUCH. And the other side is the drivers. Where you´ve have downloaded the drivers you mentioned?
  Probably on the toshiba site. The people here in the forum are mostly download sites like omegadrivers (http://www.omegadrivers.net/) which are good for mobile gamers.

  Then Vista... UH Oh, when I hear "I play games on vista", then everything in my brain begins to turn. When will be inadvertent DIG IT OUT! that Vista is EATING RESOURCES such as H * LL!
  Please, before you start writing here, install XP on your machine and get lucky, because vista on this machine is not good. Not good performance and very stressful moments, when you try
  to play some games and you notice "Hey, something is probably wrong".

  OK, the third thing is: check what applications are running. Close as many useless and unnecessary applications as you can, because of delays on a computer system... maybe some software which is
  everything slows down.
  I Don t want to be shocking, but it makes me really frustrating to read comments like these, while people DON'T want TO use this thing in their head.

  At the beginning I have speaked like you, but after awhile, I started to inform myself and now I can probably give you some answers.
  So, lets give me some information and we will solve your problem together. :)

  Many greetings

• Satellite U400 and Vista - Apple iTunes installed error message

  Hello

  Have you installed the right graphics card driver?
  The Sat A300-1GN belongs to the PSAGCE series.
  I checked the page of the Toshiba driver and there are two pilots;
  I think that you should choose the ATI driver 8.477 display because this driver supports the Mobility Radeon HD 34xx/36xx chips.

  Other base system devices could be Bridge Media slot (for SD cards), touchpad, HDMI Control Manager.

  I didn't find these drivers 64-bit on Toshiba page. Maybe you should choose some drivers for Vista 32 bit

• Satellite P200D and Vista x 64 drivers

  Hello

  I recently added to my satellite P200D - 11L 4 GB of ram.
  Because the 32 bit OS does not recognize 4 GB of ram, I decided to move to 64-bit hoping that Toshiba is promoting Vista and, of course, the spread of 64-bit systems.

  I am very disappointed that I can't install toshiba value added package and for this reason many of my laptops features are not available. In addition to that my laptop goes down so I put it to sleep.

  I searched the forum and I found on this Bios is responsible for value package and that the Bios is the reason for the error message I get every time.

  I tried to update my Bios only to find out that it is not yet being updated by Toshiba to support 64-bit VAP.
  My point is: will they make it work finally? They promise things just before buy you but the support of the software stops after a few months of the release of the laptop. Especially for the P220D series.

  Anyone know anything?
  help please.

  Hello

  Bit Vista x 64 for the Satellite P200D - 11 L drivers are available on the European driver Toshiba page.
  Also the logical device of value added 64-bit was released.

  But the 64-bit VAP contains only the DLL file.
  It is a dll which is needed to get all the features of the Toshiba tools works. You must replace the old file of the 32-bit dll with this new 64-bit dll file.

  I put t know why the BIOS is not available for 64-bit Vista maybe he will be released in the near future.

  Good bye

• Satellite A300 - and Vista recovery Question

  I bought a Satellite A300 a few days previously, it automatically installed Vista without CD when I opened it.
  Is it joint to come with a vista CD/DVD or I need to burn a Toshiba Recovery disk?

  Pkozerski is right. Toshiba offers no support for recovery with new laptop models and this media must be created using the preinstalled recovery Toshiba creator tool.

  To do this I advise you to use high quality in DVD-R format media. My favorite is TDK or Verbatim.
  If you change anything in the future on your laptop, you'll be able to find your laptop using recovery image stored on the second partition.

  If you need instructions specific to how make it please let me know.

• Port replicator does not work with Satellite P100-160 & Vista

  I just bought a Toshiba duplicator (part number: PX1173U-1PRP) but it does not work with the o/s Vista pre-installed on my P100-160. Can someone tell me where to find the Vista drivers for this device?

  It seems that the standard driver is not compatible with Vista and so you will need a new from the Toshiba page.
  You must remove the old driver and then install the new version.

  Good luck

• Problem with Satellite A300 and Vista 64 bit

  I just bought a Toshiba Satellite A300-1CO model: PSAJ4E-03R015PT, which came with an impressive 4 GB of ram device.
  I knew with Vista 32-bit, only 3 GB would be available, but since I got a license of Vista 64 bit I care, came home and installed it.
  When I looked up the drivers on the toshiba site, no drivers for Vista 64 bit drivers were available!
  I have now 4 GB or RAM available and I also have problems with face recognition software, microfone, sound card, card reader and a few other things.

  I searched the websites manufactors drivers and I managed to get some of these things barely usable, I don't think that it is a SD solution.
  Other laptop brands are made available long drivers for vista 64 bit some of them even for XP 64 bit!

  I would like to know how long take to Toshiba do official drivers available for vista 64 bit on their Web site.

  Best regards, Pedro P.

  I was looking for 64-bit drivers for my laptop, but since this is a new model, the drivers were not yet available. I checked a few weeks later and they were no longer available.

  Just wait awhile, they should be available soon.

• Question about Satellite L40 and Vista 32 bit

  Hey all, I have the following problem.
  I have Satellite L40 series 2 PC and tried to install vista ultimate 32 bit, and they freeze only on the process of "complete installation."
  I read in some other forums and found it is not only my problem. I tried with 64 bit ultimate, it's all OK. It may be, the main problem is that it is not possible to install VISTA 32 bit.
  I only ultimate now, so my question is if anyone knows or installed to another type of Vista 32 bit on these series?

  Thanks before

  As far as I know that all new models of Toshiba laptops come with Vista 32 bit. Satellite L40 is offered in three different models, and each one also comes with 32-bit operating system. If you have the recovery DVDs with your laptop is Vista 32 - bit OS. I assume it must be the Home Premium version.

  I don't have a model L, but my model works well on Vista Ultimate.

• Strange battery and/or AC on Satellite M30x and Vista behavior

  Hi all!

  I have Windows Vista and laptop M30X on board. Since a few days ago something strange was going on.
  Sometimes (can not know when) system is suddenly goes to the battery. Sometimes the two LEDs of AC and battery are flashing (rappid on and outside) and sometimes one battery LED going off (whithout flashing). When I remove and replace taking AC, everything goes back to normal for a while.

  I checked the Jack - nothing happens when you move (so I think that's not bad taking question). Battery works also very well (on 2-2, 20 h under Vista).

  Anyone has idea what is happening? It would be Vista ACPI question? He must check on another system, but it is quite difficult to reinstall all things repeatedly.

  How I tested AC power, battery, and other stuff to find out what is happening? And most importantly - how to reach or where to set?

  --
  Will be happy for all help!
  V

  PS. just he curled for any race day - nothing has past. So I guess, this problem is only when the laptop is moved (eg. organize, towers and woking on it). I think it means that electronics and OS are good, the question must be somewhere on the cable or / and socket - am I good?

  Hello

  > Could it be Vista ACPI question? He must check on another system, but it is quite difficult to reinstall all things repeatedly.
  I don t think that this problem has something to do with the software or installed Vista.

  I think it sounds more like an electronic power supply malfunction.
  You should check the pins of the battery and if the AC adapter cable is not broken.

  If the output voltage of the adapter is abnormal or if power outages, AC flashes orange.
  In your case the two LED flashes orange and so I think that it s a hardware failure.

• Satellite M40 and Vista display resolution - can not play not directly

  Hi guys

  I installed vista ultimate on my M40.
  After that, I installed chip driver ATI mobility 600 x is(with 64 MB of memory) for Vista.
  I had also installed the driver ATI catalyst 7.4, 8.2.

  But I do not get the full resolution of my ATI card IE 1200 * 800.
  It gives me 1024 * 768, whereby the text and icons become fat and ugly.

  I tried so many times to change his resolution of 1200 * 800, but the system it goes to 1024 * 768.

  When I checked the ATI graphics card settings there is an option of 3d acceleration or a material that is not installed by the driver (and it shows the MESSAGE that your current driver does not support hardware acceleration settings).

  Please someone make me know how I can get THE driver for these parameters.

  Thank you

  Hello

  For me it s a clear case.
  You have installed software design of the card is not just one or does not support the graphics hardware for laptop!

  Where did you download the ATI drivers?
  I found this statement on the ATI page:

  All pilot and technical support for the products Mobility Radeon is provided by the original manufacturer of the notebook or laptop. The drivers that are available for download at ati.amd.com are for office products only! To download Windows Vista Mobility Radeon drivers or updated driver for your laptop or notebook computer product, please visit the website of the manufacturer of your laptop or notebook computer.

  Thus, it seems that the drivers are designed for office use only and error message sayingcurrent driver doesn't support hardware acceleration settings notseems so!

• Re: Satellite P100-194 PSP6AE sound does not work under Vista 32 bit

  Hello world

  I got a nice Satellite P100 and configure Vista for a friend. I don't have the CD that came with the computer, so I installed those on the Toshiba site. I found out later that there is a proposed order of installations, and there is no chipset driver for Vista, so I used the XP one.
  As far as I got, everything works fine but the laptop remains silent. There is no sound from the speakers at all. Windows says it all was going well and there is a level moving in the sound mixer, but he remains silent.

  Does anyone have an idea what I could check or change? I would be very happy!

  Thanks in advance,
  Markus

  From my point of view, there is a hardware malfunction.
  Why? Because the sound through headphones. Therefore, it is not a software/driver problem.

  But what you could do is to check the audio playback device by default:
  Go to control panel of-> sound-> the Read tab
  Here the speakers should be peripheral activated and chosen as a default value.
