• How to access the Satellite Pro 6100 wireless network card?

  I'm cleaning a Satellite Pro 6100 for a customer and noticed that it has built in wireless card (something they didn't know). However, I just can't work out how to access. I pushed the little switch on the side backwardsa and I rocked forward, Fn + F8 and everything else I can think. But nothing happens.

  I even found the Switch Device Network utility, but that is only to show the LAN card.

  Any ideas?

  First of all please check if Device Manager in the laptop has an integrated WiFi card. The switch WLan available on the website of the laptop does not. Laptops are delivered with different specifications, and the WLan card is optional.

  I think that the WLan card is not installed in your laptop and so you cannot use it.

• Signal not detected on Satellite Pro 6100 wireless

  I have two laptops Satellite Pro 6100, two of them are configured to automatically connect to our local wireless router which they both started.
  A computer is used by myself by my wife; bookmarks, email accounts and so on are different on every computer/hard drive.

  I have problems with one of the computers (mine) - the usual problem with multispindle connectors on the video boards and feeding, then I tried to use "his" computer with 'ma' machine's hard drive.

  His machine does not recognize our LAN with my hard drive installed. He came up with a new network found, but not a wireless network. Also, with this machine and my hard drive installed, can't the machine to search for wireless LANs, the icon does not appear. The switch is turned on for wireless signals and it works very well with his hard drive in it. The network is protected, and the two machines have the same id in them for connection which work fine in the original engine.

  I don't really understand this condition. Something in the bios? Something on my hard drive that is not recognized by the computer? the wrong phase of the Moon?
  Suggestions how to trouble shoot and fix this?

  Both machines are XP Pro on them, latest updates.

  Hello

  Also AFAIK, Satellite Pro 6100 was equipped with different Wlan cards so if use different HDD with different driver then the Wlan card could not be detected by Windows XP.

  Check if the wireless adapter is listed in the Device Manager and recognized correctly.

  Hello

  Basically, the WIFI connection can be configured using settings in Windows and it is not necessary to use a WLAN client software.

  Good bye

• Data satellite Pro 6100 wireless switch does not

  I just rebuilt my 6100 with xp professional, but now will not turn my switch wireless on! Which means that I can not get the Wi - Fi connection and I can't install the bluetooth drivers... anyone have any ideas?

  Hello

  What switch do you mean? Do you mean the switch on the side of the laptop or the FN F8 key combination?
  Usually after the operating system installation, you will need to install the WLan card driver and the FN keys to use the FN combination.
  Check Device Manager if the wireless network card is installed correctly.
  If you need drivers Toshiba then please visit the Toshiba driver page.

• Satellite Pro 6100 Wireless does not work after restoring from HARD drive

  After that restore disks for installing a new HD and use and to update XP sp2, the Wireless does not work and if the card is installed XP hangs then works in fits and starts. If the card not in place, not bad at all.

  Booting from a Linux CD, the card works perfectly! I assume that the driver is the problem. The wireless card is the original, an Agere MPC13A-20/R, with Toshiba p/n PA317U-1MPC.

  I have found some drivers Agere, but am not sure

  (1) if they are correct
  (2) how to install since the machine works in a way limited with the card in place.

  Any advice?

  Hello

  I checked the page of the pilot and the only available for Windows XP WLan driver is the driver of v.1.11.108 Agere.

  (1) just try to install this driver. If the driver is not correct or is not compatible, then windows will not install the driver and you will receive a notification. You just have to try

  (2) generally you may reinstall the driver from the Device Manager. Open network controller tree, and then you can reinstall the driver.

  But this is only possible if the windows started successfully

  PS: Have you checked the information of Microsoft Windows XP SP2 update on the page of the Toshiba driver.
  I discovered that you need to update several utilities if you have installed SP2 on this laptop.

• Satellite Pro 6100F Wireless Lan and WPA Suppot

  Hello
  I recently received this laptop and I try to configure the wifi on it and will have a bit of headache without.
  This allows me to enter the password in when it picks up my wifi router, but then refuses to connect.

  The unit only does support WEP and WPA - PSK not at all?

  If she doesn't support at all so I guess im going to have to unravel the network with WEP but id do not have to.
  The only other option I see is both mac address filtering, but I want to go down that road...

  Thanks in advance,
  Will be

  Hello

  I'm not 100% sure but I think the WLAN card in this specification must be able to handle the WEP WPA probably do not.

  What WLAN card is inside?

• New on Satellite Pro 6100 WLAN card installed, but can not be activated

  Hi, just replaced the internal Wireless LAN card on my laptop Satellite Pro 6100. Map of yesterday and today have the same problem: I can't turn them on. They are installed properly and supposed to run in what concerns the XP drivers, but does not detect wireless network andy saying it is "disabled".

  I tried upgrading to the latest version of BIOS
  I reinstalled the latest drivers
  Toshiba network device switch sees only the Intel Pro/100 VE wired, network card, but not the card the Intel Pro/Wireless 2200BG.
  Direct activation of the Wireles does not produce a said connection disable, enable, trying to connect, but it fails, as if he did not see the network.

  Past and present, wireless card fail to see any network.

  Martin

  Hello Martin

  This model of laptop is quite old and at that time 2200 card was not on the market. I can imagine that there is a compatibility issue.

  I think for older models of laptops, the best solution is the use of a faster but external solution in the form of PCMCIA or USB WLAN card. With the help of these cards you will not have compatibility issues.
  What do you think of this?

• Cannot connect to WPA with Satellite Pro 6100

  Hello

  I have problems connecting to the secure WPA using a Satellite Pro 6100 companies network. I know from Google search the default drivers for the wireless card on the 6100 must be upgraded to WPA compatible. It's a Toshiba Wireless LAN mini PCI Card, and I've already upgraded to the version of the driver 7.82.0.550.
  Even with what I believe to be the correct configuration, this still does not connect to the wireless network. I did in the past, so I know it works, but I do not remember how I fixed it. Anyone know if I missed something?
  Thank you

• Satellite Pro 6100 cannot start - message PXE - E61 and PXE - MOF

  My dad just bought me a satellite pro 6100 for United off ebay and when I turn it on the toshiba screen comes up, followed by: PXE - E61 and PXE - MOF. as I am a total blank computer I have not a clue what to do! any ideas...? :)

  Hello Naomi

  Don t worry, it sounds not very badly. I think that you will solve this problem by changing some settings in the BIOS. ;)

  To my knowledge, this message appears when the LAN option has been fixed at the beginning of the boot order. So solve this problem to get into the BIOS (ESC and F1) and then change the order of Boot CD Drive drive HARD etc...
  Please set the LAN at the end.

• Satellite Pro 6100: cannot get into the BIOS and does not start

  I have a portable Satellite pro 6100, en I was trying to boot from an external USB hard drive. When I activated the second hard drive option in the BIOS it has stopped booting all in all, I can't even get into the BIOS Setup more. All I get is "In touch with tomorrow TOSHIBA" screen with the icons to select the method of priming preferred manually after it's just blank screen with a cursor blinking in the upper left.

  Press ESC or F8 before to turn usually results in fast beeps sounds.
  Press tilde (~) before turn is reflected in the remaining space screen (not even the home toshiba screen appears) and slow Zens sounds.

  Apart from that I can't really do nothing at all.
  I tried to reset the BIOS by disconnecting the battery CMOS/RTC (hoewever, we call it) of the motherboard for a while with no results.

  Turn on/off without the results of HD internal in a white screen with an ERROR 'IDE #0.
  I can always stop by pressing the power button, you don't have to bother on the external hard drive it past I don't even want it works more.

  Suggestions?

  Hello

  I agree with Graeme. Your HARD drive is probably faulty. Sorry, but I don't think that you will be able to use the external HARD drive. The option in the BIOS is not for EXTERNAL HARD drive is just, I guess, for disk HARD placed in select Bay.

• Satellite Pro 6100 cannot get my GyroTransport new 'air mouse' to work

  Satellite Pro 6100 running XP Professional with SP3 and all updates as of 10/24/08.
  BAUGHT a new mouse made by Gyration GyroTransport air, but it won't work on my laptop.
  Tried in several other computers with the same OS and it works very well. In fact as a teacher, I recommend one of these brilliant sound devices.

  I tried all settings via the control panel and can not work on why it won't work.
  The laptop recognizes the name of it when its plugged in but the States, he has a problem. The dongle USB/receiver with a memory stick with some additional software on this subject, but the laptop does not regognise the memorystick at all. He acknowledges that other memory stick no problem.
  That technician school COMPUTER looked at it and can't get by either.

  It is usually on the spot.
  Any body out there of suggestions?

  This mouse works on some laptops newer with USB 2.0 ports?

  One last thing: If you use some additional hardware to help apply the manufacturer's support. Computer laptop manufacturer doesn't provide support for certain third party materials.

• Satellite Pro 6100 has no Wlan

  Installed xp on a Satellite Pro 6100 and it has no wireless network adapter in the Device Manager to all, and it does not appear in "Found new hardware" or whatever it is.
  I downloaded the drivers, but I can't put anywhere.

  Remember that the wireless card is an option on this laptop.
  This means that some Pro 6100 was delivered with the WLan card and some does not support the minPCI wireless network card!

  If the WLan card is not listed in the Manager of devices (or as unknown under network adapters device) then the laptop was not equipped of the WLan card and so you cannot use the WLan.

• Satellite Pro 6100 - how to change the date and time in the BIOS

  Hello

  I received a satellite pro 6100 that had not been used for some time. Windows does not work then he reinstalled with the good drive.

  When I try and windows 'enable', I get the error 32777 and the laptop is unable to connect with the activation servers that a google leads to believe me that the date and time are incorrect in the bios.

  I know that Press esc to access the bios but there is no option to change the date and time in there. I put the date / the correct time in windows, but this does not seem to synchronize with the bios. I've updated to the latest version of the bios, but this is not enough.

  How can I change or update the time in the bios?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I doubt this time and date setting BIOS does affect Windows activation time Windows doesn t affect it in my opinion. There must be another reason for this problem.
  You can activate Windows by phone?

  Normally the date and time in the BIOS can change you if you mark the date or time, and then press on + or - to change this. Sometimes you have to press PageDown/to the top according to the model of BIOS or laptop.
  Usually in the configuration of the BIOS you will find a brief info how changing the values.

• Satellite Pro 6100 - code beep at startup

  Hi all

  Just picked up a 6100 Pro of the Satellite with a few problems.

  It lights up, he pointed out the HARD drive and I can hear the disk activity. However, the screen remains blank and a single beep can be learned after 20 sec. White screen, as I understand it, is probably the issue of Council power raging in the SP6xxx series. However, the beep I do not understand.

  I know that 2 beeps or 3 beeps is incompatibility of memory but no one knows which denotes the beep?

  Hey Buddy,

  To be honest it's not easy to say what the cause of the problem because it could be everything and Satellite Pro 6100 is old enough for laptop.

  You have two memory modules RAM? If so remove a module. Always try a module only at the same time and test it in the slot of RAM A and B. A module is may be defective or a slot.

  If this is not the case, there seems to be a problem with the motherboard or the CPU itself. If you can exchange these things, try it yourself as a repair would be too expensive for this good old classic I think.
  Second hand spare parts you can get it on eBay s worth a try! ;)
