Satellite P200-123 with several questions

I bought this phone 2 weeks ago and nothing else with her problems, namely:

Its very slow (Edition Vista Home premium). My old PC is an Athlon 1.4 and was much faster.

He doesn't "remember" Settings - IE cannot find the external keyboard or mouse (usb) opportunities

Sometimes it won't open requests at least that the system is rebooted - IE iTunes

I had 5 BSOD

Event Viewer reads like a who's who of warnings or errors windows

It "hangs" regularly during the stop - more than 5 minutes? (I have to do it regularly to get applications to work) We know all how long it takes Vista to start and stop!

All updates have been applied both vista and toshiba

I have Kaspersky loaded - scans reveal nothing

Ad-aware loaded - no spyware

Just "responsible for normal programs - Office of adobe lightroom/CS3, etc..

If I'm having these problems after 2 weeks, what it will be like in a few months?

Let me know your thoughts before Monday as it is the date limit for a refund.

Are there laptops out there that are without problem?

Thanks in advance

Hello

Sorry my friend but for me slow Vista is certainly no problems for me. It is well known that Vista needs far more resources than Windows XP Home edition and runs slowly.

I remember how it started out with slow running WXP. Right now the laptops were shipped with 128 MB of RAM. WXP was usable, but very slowly.
What you can do is to increase the RAM to the maximum level, remove applications pre-installed, you need and configure OS as you want it to be.

On Itunes I can not say much, but that on various forums technical, there are a lot of complaints in this regard and also those who have written on this subject have different notebooks.

I don't really know how you set up your laptop, but I use Vista too and to stop cell must not exceed 1.5 min.

One last thing: I use Vista almost 5 months for my work and the activities of every day like Internet, Skype, Web conferencing, but I never noticed any BSOD.

    Laptop manufacturer is obliged to support the Broadcom DiagTool?
    What Broadcom support on this issue? Have you contacted their support?

    I mean they have to have the best experience with own products. It has probably been tested on different hardware platforms for mobile computing.

  • Satellite P200 - 123 No Post, but still the boots

    Hello

    Have a strange, my old Satellite P200-123 worked extremely hot (70 inactive more than 100 of the load) 2 years so he disassembled and replaced the thermal grease, fans and cleaned. Standard maintenance went well, (apart from the microphone plug disintegrate at the start, but I use headphones so not really a problem).

    First boot after the interview I noticed that the screen does not display anything until windows log in screen, no toshiba screen, no post messages, etc. At first, I thought it may have lack of an external port (VGA or HDMI) however I tried to connect to an external device and he still refuses to show anything until the windows log on screen.

    I stripped and repaired hundreds of laptops (it's my job) but never encountered this in 15 years of maintenance and repairs PC and laptop. System running Windows 7 (not like it should make a difference) and the used thermal grease was the new Artic MX-3 and served on the GPU, the CPU and the Northbridge (and before someone says you must use the compound of unfounded pressure of toshiba ceramics, stuff I've used here are better for this the toshiba recommended stuff, believe me). The system works well (now idling at 39 and 65 at full load), I guess that's not much of a problem, unless I need to reinstall or restore my machine for some reason, all the world has an idea on how to fix this?

    Very interesting, Jaster! :)

  • Graphics problems in World of Warcraft on Satellite P200-123

    I bought a Satellite P200-123 to surf the net, play and for general use. I have read many reviews and chose the p200-123 because of his good grades. I play wow on a daily basis. World of Warcraft was an extension called burning crusade that came out a couple of years. When the expansion of BC the grx will all mess. Its as if there is a new effect of grx etc which does not agree with the toshiba range drivers. I get lots of polygons on the screen after being in the Burning Crusade expansion. I thought the grx was defective, so I exchanged it. Once again when I get the new laptop at home it happened again. It is a driver problem that it happens to the expansion of the BC. Ive tested it on other games and everything works fine. I want to know is we're going to have a bad selection of drviers or will they get updated.

    http://I219.Photobucket.com/albums/cc215/maltonbranch/WoWScrnShot_033108_213654.jpg

    To solve this problem, I have to change the resolution, then back to the setting I use. problems with polygons etc seems to leave for 5 minutes then the pips apear. I thought he could heat or a damaged GPU. But getting a laptop brand new just to do it again shows me his non-defective material and a driver problem.

    Ive posted this on world of warcraft forums and aparantly its a problem with the ATI driver toshiba shut down. Bottom line, I want to know if the drivers will be updated and not just old ATI modded those of toshiba. I feel ripped off the coast. In all my years of owning PCs and laptops, I never felt so disappointed by a company in terms of software support.

    Hello

    I understand you completely, especially when you play with a few new engine that requires pilots who work quite at 100%.

    Maybe you should check some 3rd third-party drivers.

    This driver have been adjusted for mobile systems, so when you try these, your problem should go away and performance are expected to increase a little.

    Welcome and good luck

  • Satellite P200 - problem with the use of disk HARD original as external drive

    I've been pulling on my hair for a month now and could do with help

    I have a Satellite P200 series PC laptop and have recently updated from the 200 GB for a pair or 320 GB HARD drive. No problem

    The question I have is that the old drive of 200 GB system I am unable to use it in any other machine or according to and external storage device.
    The original secondary disc works fine few matter where I use it... (In my PS3 at the moment)

    When I install the orgional system drive in my laptop and rebuild windows it it still works 100%.
    Hance a good work of 200 GB of HARD drive.
    Take it out and serve in another machine of storage that it won't - boot all I get is cyclic redundancy errors

    I formatted, low level run endless disk tools
    WD test came back with diagnostics Test::Read 11 - cable sector error!

    Even as a drive on the original laptop is the same

    All ideas taken with gratitude that I don't want to lose a good 200 GB HARD drive

    Thank you very much
    Roger

    Hello!

    The external box is maybe defective, because you said that the HARD drive works in your laptop and the PS3 without problem.
    You can test the HARD drive in another external case?

    WD test unknown to me but I always use the Drive Fitness Test:
    http://www.HitachiGST.com/HDD/support/download.htm#DFT
    With the Drive Fitness Test, you can test your HARD drive. Download the CD image, burn it to a CD and boot from it. You can then the HARD drive.
    On the same site is a user's guide if you want to know more.

    Good bye

  • HD - DVD will not play on Satellite P200-123 unable to output to external device

    Hello

    Yesterday I bought a P200-123. One of the first things I tried after installation of Vista originally ran a HD-DVD. I know that the drive is fine as it works in my Xbox 360. Unfortunately, it has not worked with the software provided the HD-DVD player - the play icon will light up and then I get this error message:

    "Impossible for the release of the video on an external device. Please change your display keys of the device by pressing the Fn + F5 after the end of the application. »

    I don't have an external display connected to the laptop. I tried different discs but all gave me the same error. I then carried on the update of drivers and install a bunch of Windows updates. I tried several times the HD-DVD player in the countless updates and restarts but I still get the same error. Frustration, I bought PowerDVD Ultra. Who played the film for about a second before giving me an error:

    "Failed to initialize the display secure session - (error Code = 0122).

    The error dialog box goes on to say that the error can be caused by an incompatible graphics driver or even because I use a Setup dual monitor. The reference to two monitors is common to every player application so I wonder if the problem is in this area. I have not connected to a secondary screen but when I look at the standard windows display properties or the ATI Catalyst control center app dialog I see a disabled secondary monitor. I guess that's normal - there is no obvious way to remove the secondary display disabled.

    Can anyone help me to work the HD-DVD playback?

    Thank you

    Ian

    Have you tried updating the Toshiba HD DVD player?

    You can find the update in the Qosmio G40 section check it and try to run the update. Notes; Don t delete the old version of the laptop!

  • Re: Satellite P200-123 volume control wheel

    Is it a mechanical or software driven command?

    If I turn the wheeel 'up' the volume sometimes breaks down? It doesn't seem to be a 'stop' on the wheel.

    All tips are welcome

    Thank you

    Hello

    the volume control of the Satellite P200 is a software engine, so it has no physical stop like on older machines, which means that there are some disadvantages about the time to change the flight and the reaction control.
    Don t ask me why they have implemented this software wheel-driven, but each new series of machines there and it s predictable that they will stay with this technique...

    You work quietly with the steering wheel to avoid such phenomena as spin the wheel 'up', but the volume down.
    I have the same on my Tecra S5 and it drives me crazy sometimes, but I have to live with it...

  • Cannot retrieve the Satellite P200-123 - IMAGEX error message

    Hello

    I HAVE A LAPTOP TOSHIBA P200-123 AND I AM DOING A RECOVERY, BUT FOR SOME REASON, IT IS ABOUT 19 TO 26% AND THEN RETURNS WITH AN ERROR SAYING THAT IT COULD
    IS NOT APPLICABLE TO IMAGEX AND I'M AT A LOSE WHAT TO DO.

    IS THERE ANYONE WHO CAN HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM.

    Hello Erin

    It is not easy to say why this happens because this error message occurs for different issues.
    One thing can be the reason for this.

    If I well remember when you start the recovery option it must be key SETUP (next step after the confirmation of the language). Maybe you're trying to use installation option OS on the existing partition).
    I tested it a long time ago, and I can confirm that this will not work. What is happening is very strange.
    What is happening, it's a procedure facility trying to install the OS on partition WinRE (Vista). This partition is 1.5 GB only and after 20 or 30% facilities simply stops.
    Maybe you try to do this. I do not know.

    Try using the installation of recovery with the default settings. Don't change anything in the configuration option.
    Test if you please and let me know exactly what is happening.

  • Satellite P200-144 - DVD player question

    Hello

    Well, it's kind of a stupid question but anyway. When you press the button to eject CM how much distance it open because I do not know if mine comes out correctly.
    If you can post a sick photo would really appreciate

    Thank you

    Hello

    It is exactly 12 cm. Just enough space to accommodate a CD vertically. My laptop is a P200 - 10 c a clone of yours, but with a single HARD drive so I guess that this will apply for your to.

  • Qosmio G20-123 with two questions (WIFI AND ELECTROSTATIC)

    I BOUGHT THE QOSMIO G20-123 ON 30 OCTOBER 2005, FRANCE.
    IT'S THE SECOND QOSMIO I (I BOUGHT THE FIRST QOSMIO G10-126 OF FRANCE IN JANUARY 2005 AND IT WORKS PERFECTLY FINE). NEEDLESS TO SAY THAT I ONLY BUY TOSHIBA BRAND FOR MY LAPTOP SINCE THE YEAR 2000.

    UNFORTUNATELY, THIS NEW QOSMIO G20-123 HAS TWO PROBLEMS.
    I WILL ADDRESS THE TWO ISSUES AND THE RESPONSE THAT I RECEIVED FROM TOSHIBA LEBANON (WHERE I LIVE) I HAD THE EXPERIENCE AND THEY HAVE VERY GOOD TECHNICIANS AND SERVICE.

    FIRST PROBLEM: WIFI CONNECTION
    I HAVE THE APPLE AIRPORT EXPRESS AS ACCESS POINT, WHEN I CONNECT THE QOSMIO WIRELESS ACCESS point IT STARTS WITH a SPEED OF 54 Mbps THEN IT COMES down to 1 Mbits/S.i. HAVE to PRESS THE BUTTON REPAIR so that the speed is up to 54 Mbps, and then a few minutes later, it comes down again once at 1 Mbps.
    SO FAR I HAVE NO RESPONSE FROM TOSHIBA ON HOW TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.

    SECOND PROBLEM: FIELD ELECTROSTATIC AROUND THE SCREEN

    WHEN I TOUCH THE METAL OF THE LCD FRAME, THERE IS A LOAD ELECTROSTATIC, FLUCTUATING TENSION ALL AROUND.
    IT SEEMS THAT IT LACKS A PLUG OF EARTH (EARTH) SOMEWHERE... I'VE EVER SEEN AN ADAPTER TOSHIBA WITH A SHEET CONTAINING 3 HEADS (EARTH).
    SO FAR THIS PROBLEM TOO HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED.
    ALSO AS I MENTIONED HIGHER, MY OLD QOSMIO G10-126, WHICH IS PLACED NEXT TO EACH OTHER, USING THE SAME ACCESS POINT AND THE SAME ELECTRICITY INTAKE, AND IT WORKS PERFECTLY WELL WITHOUT THESE PROBLEMS. WHAT SOMEONE HAS THESE PROBLEMS?
    CAN YOU HELP ME SOLVE THEM?

    Thank you

  • Satellite P200-123 - grx upgrade is possible?

    Is it possible to update my grx HD 2600 card or any other part of the laptop? I know it is possible to put more memory in it, but I was hoping to upgrade the grx card in the near future.

    Thank you very much.

    No, it s impossible given that almost everything is (except memory) is soldered on the motherboard of your machine. Which means that if you want more graphics performance you need to buy a machine with a more powerful graphics chip.

    That's all

  • Satellite P200-123 2 GB SD card is not recognized

    Hello

    When I put a 2 GB standard (* NOT * HCSD) SD card in the built-in player, it is not recognized, the sd card is not in the Device Manager, or anywhere.

    I updated the driver "SD Utilities" and I also tried updating Vista with a fix, but it says I already have a later version installed.

    However, the 1 GB SD cards work always in the drive?

    Any help would be much appreciated :D

    BTW, my OS is Vista 32 bit

    The 2 GB card works in other PC?

    Maybe its defective or needs formatting.

  • Satellite P200-157: Atheros AR5006EG WLan - AES encryption in question WPA

    Hello, sorry for my English.

    I bought a SATELLITE P200-157 with VISTA OEM 2 months, since I can't use WPA with Atheros AR5006EG AES encryption.

    The LAN does not work because three other computers are connected in wifi on the same router. With the Toshiba pc, I just can be connected to the WLAN key if my router WEP or WPA - PSK TKIP. in WPA - PSK AES/CCMP or TKIP + AES it does not work.
    When the SATELLITE is unable to connect to the WIFI network, it return when connecting try 'Abnormally long network connection' = connection too long and after vista let me choose between a diagnosis of the problem or borrowed from another ESSID.

    Did I missed something let work AES encryption? Thank you for helping me, I have no idea to solve this problem.

    Hello

    As far as I know all this (encryption) WLAN settings must operate if the material and the pre-installed driver supports all this. I'm afraid that in your case, he can't do it because the wireless network card and all modes of AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) encryption option are not supported.

  • Satellite P200 - no integrated noise "subwoofer".

    Hello!
    I have a Toshiba Satellite P200-1FM with a high "subwoofer". At least the manual says theres is one and its supposed to be at the bottom of the laptop. I can see it and it looks like the picture in the manual. I tried it prick with a toothpick (of course) just to make sure that theres a speaker it and not just plastic. There is some flex in it and it sure sounds like a speaker when I poke him. However, my problem is theres no noise coming from him.

    I tried both Vista and XP, and several different drivers without success. Anyone got any ideas? Anyone got the same laptop as I do? Your "subwoofer" work? The other speakers work fine, btw.

    Help, please!

    How do you know that your Satellite P200 subwoofer integrated?
