• Unexpected restarts in Satellite P100 WXP MCE

  Satellite P100-342 - PSPA3E 10 months. From the beginning, the pc restarts unexpectedly during a working session every 5 minutes on. A full recovery does not solve the problem.

  The pc was sent 3 times to the Toshiba technical service: motherboard, memory of the graphics card and hard drive has been changed and bios and updated soft graphics card. After repairs things have improved a little bit and reboots happen about every hour.

  Restart is not at all when the computer works alone (download large file, reading movies etc..) without user intervention.

  Hello

  It's very strange question. Can you please tell me what is your typical work session? What applications you use especially when the system crashes?

• Satellite P100-347: blue screen at startup - unable to boot volume

  Recently, I left my 2 younger brothers playing NFS Carbon on my satellite P100-347, pre-installed with media center edition 2005, and now it fails to start.

  During the process of possibly starting a blue screen appears for about a second and then it shutsdown (I managed to make the words "unable to boot volume" on the basis of the blue screen).

  I tried to boot with a XP media center DVD but it gives me only a possibility of reinstalling the operating system with a cost of losing all my important data. Normally I would have picked up the system, but I don't want to lose my data.

  Can I do other than take it to a technician?

  Hello

  Well, for the most part the BSOD appears due to hardware problem or serious software.
  In your case, the software problem is possible

  Unfortunately, I think that the new installation of the OS is the best way to get the laptop works properly.
  Now, you want to know how to record data and the files well, I think that you should remove the laptop HARD drive and must try to connect the 2.5 HDD via external USB controller to another computer. Then you can save the files to the other HARD disk

  I think, now, you know that regular backups are important and necessary!

• 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

• Satellite P100-347 - DVD player is no longer visible in Windows XP MCE

  Hello. My DVD players seems to have disappeared from within Windows MCE running on my P100-347. BIOS can see it, it opens and closes without any problems and the light comes on as if the disc is read, but it is not considered by Windows as a disc.

  I installed the DVD - RAM drivers on the Toshiba site, but this did not a bit of difference. Any suggestions?

• Satellite P100-221: TV Out & Windows update

  Hey everybody,

  I have Satellite P100-221 and I have 2 problems:

  1. I connect my computer laptop to the TV using the S-video via the S-video port cable, then when I press Fn + F5 it gives me the entire options, including CRT, LCD/CRT, LCD/TV & TV then I select TV and nothing happened at one of the laptop screen and the TV screen. I tried several times and it does not work, if any body can help me in this matter and if there are actions should be made in the display properties, I would be much appreciated.

  2 - operating system laptop is Windows XP Media Center, and whenever I try to connect the windows update server it gives me an error update failure, someone has an idea of what is causing this problem, I would be grateful.

  Thank you...

  Hello

  You you properly connected portable TV and have you enabled the s-video on the TV?

  Have you checked if it s possible to switch to the TV via the Nvidia nView Desktop Manager?
  This option that you can find in the control panel. There must be an option to turn on the TV.
  You can also try to update the hotkey utility. The P100-221 is a series of PSPA6E. Do not forget that you are using the correct driver.

  But a question: have you used the Toshiba OS or have you installed the operating system from the Microsoft CD?

  I can t tell a lot about the failure of update. Maybe something wrong on the inputs of server or Microsoft registry on your device. Try to search the knowledge base Microsoft for similar problems.

• System recovery media is not delivered with my new Satellite P100

  Hello world.

  Two weeks ago, I bought my first laptop of Toshiba (P100-324). Before, I had many doubts about the facilities of Toshiba. Now I have to say that I am really very pleased with the quality of your product. The laptop itself is great and everything works fine.

  Except a problem: in the box, it there was only one disc: the CD entitled "Express Media Player Recovery CD. When I checked the database online of the Toshiba with my s/n, she showed a Windows recovery DVD in the package list. So I did what you guys recommend to: contacted * all * the FSA in Poland. Surprisingly, the quality of the customer service was not so good. Each of them told me as if there were no real DVD in the box, it MUST be a hidden partition on my HARD drive, and if I want to buy the CD/DVD with the operating system (I have a license/sticker OEM to use: XP MCE) I pay about 20 EUR

  Wow. A price of 20 EUROS for a single value of CD... 5 cents? (the media itself, not the software) In fact, when I was paying a lot of money for my laptop I expect something more in terms of customer service. But anyway, I'm just one customer, probably worth less than nothing to the FSA. So, after this long and boring, prologue here are my questions:

  (1) should there be another DVD in my Inbox that contains the Windows XP MCE OEM installation?

  (2) otherwise - y at - it technique uber-elite that Toshiba is using to hide the Windows recovery partition me? There are only 2 partitions on my HARD drive: one with 250 MB (which is IMHO far too small to contain all the windows + drivers) and one that fills the disk completely (~ 200 GB). Is there some magic bios that would display the partitions one another?

  (3) otherwise - is it possible to "produce" somehow a windows recovery DVD? I mean, on my c: drive is CMPNENTS, I386, directories VALUEADD I somehow recognizes Windows installation CD. However, when I try to use nLite on the root of c: (or the i386 directory), it indicates that not all the installation files are present.

  (4) and finally - how do I reinstall my Windows XP MCE?

  I really, really need to have an option to reinstall my operating system. It would be a shame for Toshiba that I had to buy another copy of Windows XP Home edition oem (and scratch the key oem sticker).

  Hello Tomasz

  First of all, I am very pleased to hear that you are satisfied with your new P100. Right now I use the older Satellite M70 with ATI graphics card, but I think buying Satellite P100. Satellite P100 has long been on the market and I hope that very soon, Toshiba P100 successor. Maybe something like P200 and I think I'll wait a few months see what happens in the future.

  Back to your question:
  As far as I know recovery DVD should be bundled with the new and original packaged product. On your laptop, it is also preinstalled Express Media Player. It's a small application based on Linux that allows you to watch DVD movies or listen to audio CDs without booting the operating system. It is preinstalled on small partition unallocated. Express Media Player using supplied restore CD you can install it anywhere, anytime. As I said recovery DVD should be supplied with your laptop. But in this whole one thing confused me: autour Googling, I discovered that the Satellite P100-324 is available in Germany and Austria. Because of this I really don't know how you could buy this product in Poland? Have you branch new or perhaps as some showroom products.
  Please give some info about it.

  Maybe is my view too long but I wanted to just tell you one thing. May be pretty important thing: many users mix of Toshiba service and authorized partners. Each authorized service partner is not directly Toshiba. All these partners are independent companies that have contracts with Toshiba (and very often with other laptop manufacturers) and they repair laptops. Please note that they operate as independent businesses and create prices on its own (free market). If there is a communication problem you cannot say: bad or bad service from Toshiba. Yes, in a certain way, they represent Toshiba but if personal service is not qualified or hostile he really has nothing to do with Toshiba himself.

  They are also right on self-created recovery DVD Toshiba a few notebook models are supplied without the recovery DVDs and the user must create one. But it is absolutely not the case with your P100. For most computers business notebooks have this option as Portege and Tecra.

  Dear Tomasz at the end it is not easy to say what you need to do. If you have a portable German perhaps it is best to order the DVD of recovery on your tongue. He's still irritated when you have additional costs but 20 euros is not a lot of money. Fill in your new toy and enjoy your life.

  Bye and good luck!

• Satellite P100 - 347 (PSPA6) and Conexant audio problem in Windows 7 64 bit

  He is a [old problem | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=175972#175972] which seems to have affected many people.

  Conexant HD Audio (hardware id: HDAUDIO\FUNC_01 & VEN_14F1 & DEV_5047 & SUBSYS_1179FF31 & REV_1000)

  There has been no official driver published this work in Windows 7 64 bit. It works fine in 32-bit, windows 7, and using different drivers from other sources + partial + fix can be found.

  Using these drivers:

  [Audio 4.8.0.0 | http://209.167.114.38/support/Download/files_downloads/pspa1c/vista/Audio4.8.0.0.zip]
  [sp35683 | ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp35501-36000/sp35683.exe]

  and some of the advice [here | http://laptopforums.toshiba.com/t5/Windows-7/Windows-7-64-bit-drivers-for-P100-P105-Users/m-p/67516], it is possible to get the proper functioning, but * only * when using the S/PDIF (HD) audio output. When the S/PDIF cable is removed the internal speakers make noise for a fraction of a second, then silence.

  I tried everything and this issue has been around for months and months, but no perfect solution seems to exist. I was wondering if there is a way to update the drivers of the HD Audio Controller, integrated in Windows 7. Or maybe a hack that allows the internal speakers continue to work (they work for one second!)

  Please, any help on this would be greatly appreciated

• 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: No CD Windows Vista but only the recovery CD

  Hi, I recently bought a toshiba satellite P100, but it does not seem to have fitted with a disc of Windows Vista, only the preinstalled Vista.

  The laptop works fine for now, but I'm a little worried that if something is wrong in the future, I will have no way to reinstall the OS.

  The laptop came with a recovery disk, and I don't know if Vista is included on this?

  If it isn't in any way I can make a copy of vista installed on my HARD drive?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Don t worry, you don t need to make a copy of your HARD disk, since you already have a vista on your recovery media.

  If you have problems with your system and you want to re - install, then backup all your data on an external, put the recovery in your CD/DVD drive, boot from it and then just 'recover' or 'reinstall' your system. The recovery process works automatically and you will have an installation "factory-like" after recovering from your machine.

  Hope, I could explain it... ;)
