Satellite Pro 2100: to use the multimedia key

• Satellite A300-1tim: - issue of the multimedia keys

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A300-1tim: PSAGCE-08X00GPL.
  After reinstalling Windows (Vista 32 bit), everything was fine until the moment when I wanted to turn off the backlight touch multimedia keys, those just above the keyboard (above the F1 to F12 keys).

  Mute, play/pause, stop and change of tracks in Windows Media Player buttons worked very well, except the second button - turning on WMP (but it was flashing after pressing).

  Some time ago, I had these configured buttons in a way the first person (currently silent) turned to the large backlit, second one - a shot on Winamp.

  I installed the package of added value and Toshiba Assist. Now, in Toshiba Assist, after choosing "Toshiba buttons" I only empty fields.
  When I chose to browse and dir: TBS try to choose any function (e.g. drive - disable backlit) it appears in the path and Description sections, I can type something in Option, but nothing appears in the section last but the most important: button name, has nothing to choose, blind fields on the list.

  Of course after you press the register there is no response when I press any button.
  Maybe someone has seen something like that?

  HWSetup I can turn back-lit, but this is not the point, I would do it with a single button as before.
  Value added package 1.1.19 installed with FeatureSelect.ini 1.1.14 (common failure of Toshiba) also chcked v. 1.1.14 (two versions available)
  BIOS 2.20
  Toshiba Assist 2.01.04

  Checked the registry and saw that I have all the keys in the registry:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Toshiba\TBS\DefaultSet ting\
  I don't want to dirty it so I did not change anything

  BTW, sory for my English: bravohelen:

• Satellite A300-1IK - installation after Windows I can't use the multimedia keys

  I tried to clean my laptop, so I installed Windows7 64-bit using my code, but now that I also donwloaded all drivers, I still can't use easy media keys (as for Windows Media Player, or those who must play/stop music, ect..)

  No one knows how to fix this?

  Hi dilettafornasiero,

  I think you forgot to install Toshiba value added Package this package contains the driver for these buttons (lighted) media where you can start Windows media player, for example.

  You should check the Web from Toshiba site again and search for VAP also indicated for Satellite A300. Download and install the package and after I restarted the lighted buttons should start working.

  Check this box!

• Satellite A300D-205 - tools for the multimedia keys

  Hi guys.

  I installed windows XP for my Toshiba Satellite A300D-205 and all devices to work perfect except the media touch buttons. It works with Vista, but it does not work with XP.

  Can you give me some ideas (or tools) how to operate?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Are you kidding me? You can download all drivers & tools on the Toshiba site:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

  As far as I know that you have need of the common Modules, Hotkey Utility, Touchpad on / off and utility for multimedia and the FN keys.

  But I m wondering that you want to use Windows XP. It's the past, and now the best OS is Windows 7. Have you tested it yet?

• Satellite Pro L300 - cannot use the 4 GB memory full

  My laptop is Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 model: PSLBDE-003005AR

  I upgrade my memory to 4 GB using 2x2gb PC2-5300 667 Mhz memory. When I installed the memory and I turn on my laptop the installation always pop up. When I removed the 2 GB of memory to do only 2 GB I spend on my laptop and it works.

  I am using windows Vista premium 32-bit edition. I wonder why I do not work with 4 GB of memory. I installed the memory correctly, but it does not work to 4 GB.

  > Laptop is a Satellite Pro L300 PSLB1A - 01 L 019. Lists of the Toshiba Site the maximum memory 2 GB spec however sheets provided with the laptop shows a maximum of 4 GB of RAM.

  This chipset uses this device?
  There are different L300 with different chipsets and different hardware components.
  Some L300 would be able to support 4 GB and some are limited to 2 GB of RAM.

  So if Toshiba says 2 GB are max so it's good and you will not be able to use 4 GB of RAM.

• Satellite C660-155 - cannot use the FN keys

  You must install the Support TOSHIBA Flash Cards and then Toshiba value added package utility.

  By the way: If you want to use clean OS installation you need to install many other drivers, tools and utilities that must be installed on the right the order of installation.

• Need to find the cmos on Satellite Pro 2100 battery

  I have a laptop that is not keep date/time settings and I need to identify the laptop to find the correct instructions to take apart.

  The brand is a Satellite Pro SP2100, model PS210E006P9-EN number, but I can't find this brand/model on the Toshiba site. The closest I can find is Satellite 2400-103, part number: PS240 - T 014, 1, that seems identical.

  I tried to use the identify tool of Toshiba to detect what is the laptop, but that fails to provide results.

  I also need to find out what food is for this unit as the current is defective and exposed wires.

  The adapter of current with her is PA3201U-1ACA, the problem is that this card has another card on the end to fit the power plug to the back of the laptop. The connector at the end of PA3201U is too thin to fit.

  Hello

  This laptop is very old and the name of this machine is: Satellite Pro 2100 PS210E

  > I have a laptop that is not keep date/time settings and I need to identify the laptop to find the correct instructions to take apart.

  Usually the CMOS battery can be charged. You must connect the power adapter and the laptop must be powered for about 12-14 hours.

• Need administrator rights for the Intel on Satellite Pro 2100 speed step

  Hello
  I have a Satellite PRO 2100 (Pentium 4 1.9 GHz).
  I have a problem with the function of the Intel speed step, which reduces the speed of the processor at 1.2 GHz. But I have a problem: I can do this, if I use an administrator account...
  After starting, if I connect with a simple user account, the Intel speed step works... and the speed of the cpu remains at 1.9 GHz.
  So I would like to use this function with a simple user account, how do I do it please?

  Thanks for your help :)

  Hello

  As far as I know that this application is not shipped with the image of Toshiba and it s not made not part of the image.
  But I put t see any big problems. You will need to change your account administrator rights. In this case, you will need to ask someone the admin right to edit your account.

  The other possibility is to change the law for this software. There can be changes as by admin. What you can change in the Security tab in the program properties. Full control must be set to all.

  Then, it should be possible to use this application with your account.

• A few questions regarding the hardware upgrade and the games on Satellite Pro 2100

  Hey,.

  I thought that posting this here because it's more about the lines for the games I could think on another topic.

  I'll get to the point... Basically, I bought a laptop from a guy that my friend knew. He barely used this laptop and didn't know anything about computers, and he tried to avoid as much as possible. So he got rid of this laptop for me for real cheap.

  Now I got it, I had expected either of two things with the laptop.

  (1) what I'll use it so I can sit in his bed and travel a little bit while having files, movies, music and internet access. (it wasn't my main idea)

  Or

  (2) it allows to play video games on it, or to update, so I have a better chance to do so.

  I was hoping to get for video games, mainly for my brother to use because his computer is lagging a lot while playing world of Warcraft. I was hoping that this notebook would give him a better experience for a while.

  But as I was installing the game on this, I noticed that the disk space is low, so I'm going to buy an external hard drive, so I can send files between the PC and the laptop, and I got an error message saying that the RAM was under "minimum requirements" for WoW.

  So I know that I got to level it with something big, but I know not what, so I'm not quite sure that this laptop will run the game at a decent rate. So I thought that I turn to a computer forum and ask.

  It's my laptop;
  [Satellite Pro 2100 PS210E | http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=UK&BV_UseBVCook = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 45659 ie]

  This laptop will do the job don't you think?
  Or it will be better for simpler things, or less if I had the ram to 1gig?

  I don't know much on the laptop, and I'm not really willing to spend too much on fixing, if it's just a change of the ram, then it wouldn't cost much for than to upgrade around 1gig.

  Hello

  First of all, I must say that this notebook belongs to an older series laptop.
  It was equipped with the 1.8 Celeron CPU, 256 MB RAM, 20 GB or 30 GB HARD drive and a 16MB graphics card internal.

  What you can do is upgrade the RAM up to 1 GB (2 x 512 MB) and the HARD drive. But I think that the maximum size of HARD drive that would be recognized by the BIOS is 120 GB.
  I think that the laptop supports one IDE controller and it limited because of the 28-bit LBA HARD drive size.

  So finally, it is important to mention that you can not pass the graphics card because it s soldered onto the motherboard. Upgrading the CPU is not possible or very difficult.

  I come to the conclusion that you will not be able to play games of new generation on this machine. The hardware specs are maybe too low a few simple games would run on this laptop but I'm sure that other newer games will not run smoothly.

• Satellite Pro 2100: How do I order the recovery CD

  Hi all...

  I tried to use the search function to find the answer to this, but so far, I've been unable to.
  I just had my laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro 2100 old friends, but the HARD drive is full of stuff I would never like games and old family photos that he told me to just delete.

  Unfortunately he hasn't his recovery disk and I tried to enter the serial number in the disk drive service replacing and he says he's too old...

  Anyone know where I can get one from?

  Hello

  Hmm... the Satellite Pro 2100 is the old series of laptop and I doubt it could be possible to order the CD from recovery for this unit. But to achieve this, I recommend contacting the local Toshiba ASP for some details.

  Another possibility to install the O on this old could be the use of the original CD of Microsoft Windows. After the installation of the own XP operating system you could visit the page of European disc of Toshiba and could download the necessary drivers.

  You can find the drivers in the ARCHHIVE region.

• Satellite Pro 2100 two cables behind the screen

  Hi, first post so be gentle with me please.

  I have a Satellite Pro Satellite Pro 2100 and the hinges are shot, so I bought a 2100 piece to Exchange.
  Everything was ok except that I have two sons that I can't find a place to plug in. A black white and they are attached to the small square gold Ribbons that are glued to each top corner at the back of the screen. The other ends have little, but when I stripped the laptop they were in bulk and I do not see where they are going.

  However, the laptop works fine without them.
  Can anyone help please?

  All laptops with WLAN have this. WLAN antenna is placed behind the screen and these two wires must be connected to the WLAN antenna.

  If your laptop doesn't have WLAN card put just the cables aside and everything will be OK.
