Satellite P300 - mouse gel and ATIKMDAG error - resolved

If it helps someone...

I had a problem with my Satellite P300... The mouse used to freeze from time to time for 3-4 seconds each time which was very annoying... and I used to occasionally get an error atikmdag.
I searched the forums, but I couldn't find a definitive answer to my problem.

Ultimately, here's what I did:

I've updated the two anf BIOS ATI drivers and Vista (mine is homefamily premium 32). It seems that this has helped solve the problem ATIKMDAG. But I still had my mouse freeze from time to time. Someone told me I should try updating my audio drivers (Connexant) which I did and it worked. No more 'gel '.

This means that these problems ATIKMDAG or mouse are not hardware issues because I was told first by technical services...

Concerning

Thank you very much for this report.
As you know on the Internet you can find various forums where a lot of people are saying about error ATIKMDAG but offered solutions are different and will not help everyone. I'm glad to hear that your problems are solved.

I have the Satellite P300 in front of me and I'm happy with it. After a year now, I still the original image of recovery preinstalled on it (of course changed a bit) and it runs great.

Just a question: do you have maybe picked up info on the new Satellite P500? Great laptop with screen 18. I think that this will be my next. It you please?

  • Satellite P300 keep gel

    Toshiba Satellite P300 kept freezing and Windows install did not work; then backed up all the files via the safemode, restored with factory settings but no 2nd partition.

    Everything went well with the new facility until went to IE, about 10th window IE it froze again, but Windows install at least worked. If hard, close, back to safe mode, restore factory again - same thing.
    I have no restore disks.

    Any suggestions please?

    Hmmm... I read your ad several times but I still don t understand your problem.

    Satellite P300 has been bundled with Windows Vista and the recovery image is recorded on the second partition of HARD drive in the folder called HDDRecovery. You can install this image if you start Notepad with F8 and use repair my computer option. Recovery image will be installed, but the second HARD disk partition will remain unchanged.

    So there is no clear statement about this recovery image installation in your ad.
    Recovery image is installed correctly in the end?

    I put t understand what you do safe mode. Safe mode has nothing to do with the recovery option.
    I also put t understand your problem with IE. Can you please explain the problem a bit detailed?

  • Satellite P300 - vertical red and white lines on the screen

    Hello

    Red and small white vertical lines ' pixels may 2 each) are appearing on almost all of my screen. Sometimes, if the background is grey or white (for example a box on a web page), the display is normal on this particular area and the lines are everywhere around. This is the second time that this has happened. The last time, it disappeared after a few days. My computer is a Satellite P300.

    What can I do?

    Thanks for your help.

    I understand this correctly?
    This problem appears on all screens: internal and 2 display attached external monitor?

    Well, in my opinion, this means that the graphics card may be affected. :(

    I see on many sites that the graphics card is out. I would like to change the graphics card. Is it possible? Where can I buy a new graphics card? How can I disassemble the Toshiba P300?

    > I would like to change the graphics card. Is it possible? Where can I buy a new graphics card? How can I disassemble the Toshiba P300?
    Unfortunately it's the worst thing that can happen with laptop. In general the GPU cannot be replaced and when something like this happens all motherboard needs to be replaced.

    You can try to use Google and check if you can find something but it is unclear to me that you can buy a graphics card in some online stores. Maybe on ebay and without warranty.

    All this is quite complicated.

  • Satellite P300: - 0701 usb over current error on the splash screen for the hc port

    Hey there,

    Yesterday I woke up and I started my laptop, and it gave me this error at startup:
    0701 usb over current on hc port
    0701 usb over current on hc port
    I had the possibility to press f1 to continue and f12 to get into the bios.

    When I press f1, that my laptop will not start, it brings me to the BIOS anyway. Then when I restart, the screen turns black and does nothing.
    Now I does not solve the screen doing nothing problem by removing the battery and replacing the battery, but I still have these USB errors.

    I also noticed that before that there is this problem, my laptop does not recognize a storage device, not even my blackberry. He acknowledged, however, my mouse and keyboard (since they are not storage devices).

    Can someone help me? Thank you!

  • Satellite P300-220 - gel in-game, or sometimes in windows

    Hi, I have a problem with my laptop for a few weeks.

    When I play a game, my laptop freezes after 10 minutes or more, sometimes I can play for hours. But when it freezes U must use the power button to stop it. Sometimes it restarts by itself, but it is rare. When it restarts, sometimes the screen stays black and I can't do a thing, then it's off again. I have to wait to be able to start again properly.

    I already check the memory with memtest and everything is clear, I also try a large number of drivers for video cards, but the results are always the same.

    After the first time I've had this gel I'm trying to install Windows 7 to see what happened and he left. I also try Windows XP also unsuccessfully.

    So I really need help because I can not find a solution.

    PS: Sorry for my English I'm french.

    Hello

    What display driver is installed now?
    Make sure that you use the latest Toshiba display driver.

    In addition, it would be interesting to know with the factory settings. The same error occurs if you install the laptop using the Toshiba Recovery disk?

    Also make sure that this dust isn't blocking the cooling fan. You can use the jet of compressed air to clean!

    In the worst cases, you will need to contact a service provider authorized-online hardware problem.

  • Satellite Pro 6100 gel and close

    Hello
    I just bought a second hand 6100 and after about an hour of use it stops, I guess its overheating as about 10 minutes later, I can restart

    I also have the RTC message that seems to be very popular

    Can someone let me know how to check the radiator & Fan and if the cmos recharges its free if I can get the laptop to continue to operate for long enough

    any help would be appreciated

    See you soon

    Hi Andy,.

    Overheating is a common problem with most laptops and can usually be resolved by using an interior hose of the vacuum cleaner on the grids of aspiration air for a few seconds. This effectively pulls the dust and debris out of the heatsink through fans. It also avoids having to disassemble the radiator that is usually attached to the CPU thermal paste.

    Regarding your RTC battery, this will normally rechanrge once the main battery is fully charged. I suggest that you leave the device attached to the power supply for at least 12 hours after the main battery is fully charged. This shopuld be sure the RTC battery is also fully loaded. It is always possible that the RTC battery began to fail in this case, it must be replaced.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite P300 - 220 (PSPCCE) and express card FireWire

    I have problems with an IRQ that is shared between the firewire (IEEE1394) and ati mobility radeon 4600. (the IRQ used by both devices is 16)
    Sharing this make my firestudio presonus (external FireWire sound card) problems when playing music on my DAO.

    I would buy an Express card for this problem, but I have to be sure that it won't be the same IRQ (16) than the other firewire connection.

    If you use such a card please check wich IRQ is used when it is connected on the laptop.
    You can see with Device Manager.

    Thank you very much.

    toskidus

    Hello

    The Windows operating system controls and assigns automaticity all remedies to all controllers!
    In my case the SD host controller and the graphics card share the same IRQ 16 and there is NO conflict.
    So I doubt that your problem is related to the same IRQ which is used by firewire and graphics card.

    Sorry, but that's all I can suggest about your question

  • MS Home and Student on Satellite P300 - 1-9

    Hi all

    Just bought a Toshiba Satellite P300 - 1 9 and it has Microsoft Works installed. When you open one of the programs works Office home and Student 2007, which is not normally included in Works. There is nothing to say or indicate that it is a trial version and you need the key usual 25-digit.

    Where can I find this or can anyone confirm if this is a trial version or not? Also installed, separate works, is a 60 day trial of Office 2007 which explicitly states that it is a trial.

    Thank you

    cheven.

    Hi mate

    To be honest I m a bit confused.

    Firstly MS Works is MS Works and MS Office MS Office.

    The two programs are different and not the same thing.

    Œuvres of MS should be the full version but the MS Office is only the trial version and can not be activated and converted to the full version!

  • Satellite P300-1 year - Touchpad problem with AC adapter / CC

    I have a laptop Satellite P300-1 year and from the beginning (two weeks)
    I have a touchpad problem: it will not immediately responsive and the pointer shakes when pressing the key. Very often, it freezes for only one or two seconds.

    It's VERY annoying. A USB mouse works perfectly.
    I tried to reinstall the drivers of the ALPS, tried Synaptics ones, just try Windows Vista drivers: no way.

    Now, I found the reason: this question is present only when the laptop is powered by the AC adapter / CC.
    With the battery, the touchpad is perfect.

    I contacted Toshiba Service and thay said that they do not change the AC adapter if I don't mean before a full system restore!
    Is it not more simple just try with a new adapter and then only, if the problem persists, try more drastic procedures?

    Anyone had this same problem?

    > I contacted Toshiba Service and thay said that they do not change the AC adapter if I don't mean before a full system restore! Is it not more simple just try with a new adapter and then only, if the problem persists, try more drastic procedures?

    The point is that your laptop should be always verified using the Toshiba factory setting.
    Why? Because the ASP wants to make sure that this issue is not related to a software problem (compatibility problems with applications 3rd part). Software problems are not covered by the warranty.

    In addition the ASP will always recover the laptop before the verification of the pieces of equipment to malfunction. Therefore, you should always back up your data from the HARD disk until you send the laptop to check.

    I recommend you to reinstall the operating system using the Toshiba recover disc and then check if the problem appears.
    If yes you can contact ASP and could provide all the necessary details for only one technician.

    Good bye
