• Satellite Pro A10 PSA15E: Encryption WPA WLan is missing

  I reinstall a Satellite Pro A10 PSA15E-018PC-OF.
  The problem I have is to get the WPA available for the wireless network card.
  Do I did wrong.
  Reinstallation of XP SP2 full.
  Installed Toshiba drivers. I used the drivers Intel Pro set.

  There is nothing wrong! WiFi encryption type depends on the WLan card specifications and not the driver WLan.

  If the equipment (WLan card) does not support WPA encryption, then you will be not able to use it! The update of the driver won't help you!

  You need to replace the WLan card with another that supports WPA or you are going to buy additional WLan USB key that supports this encryption too.

• Satellite Pro A10 PSA15E: NO sound after installing Win XP

  Hello world

  I had to reinstall Win XP Home - which went well, however - now there is no sound and it says no audio device is installed. I tried to install the audio drivers on the Toshiba CD but they go as far as unpacking but then say "not installed" and Setup stops.

  I went to www. support. Toshiba.com and follow the menu to identify which drivers to download? but there are several possibilities for the
  Model A - 10 and I am not sure I have listed below models have.
  A10-S100, A10-S1001, A10-S127, A10-S128, A10-S129, A10-S1291, A10-S167, A10-S169, A10-S1691, A10 S177, A10-S178.

  I would be grateful for your advice.

  Thank you

  What you mean? On the European driver Toshiba page, you will find only one series Satellite Pro A10.
  Once again; Do you have a computer or a Sat Pro A10 laptop satellite A10?

  There is a driver of sound for a portable Pro A10. This is a version of audio driver Analog Devices 5.12.01.3542.
  If you are using XP SP2 please check the information provided on the page of the driver Tosh

• Satellite Pro A10 (PSA15E) - no card after replacing HARD drive wireless network

  Hello

  just a spare hard drive was fitted by an expert, all drivers and update of the BIOS installed on the site of Toshiba, but my wireless network card does not work.
  When I try to connect via a router it says that the card is disconnected?

  I went into Device Manager and of what follows is listed under devices Details ld:
  PCI\VEN_10B7 & DEV_6001 & SUBSYS_600110B7 & REV_01\5 & 36 D 029F7 & 0058F0

  Can someone please tell me which card is installed and where / how do get me to it.
  I don't understand how it can be unplugged?

  I use a 3com officeconnect wireless 11g PC Card which works fine until the hard drive failed.

  Help, please... I am due to go to the hospital Monday and I wish I could take it with me.

  Thank you

  Hello

  Sorry if I write this too late. :(

  He's old enough for laptop and I don't know with certainty what is the card inside, but all notebooks with wireless network inside card have a small stick of Wi - Fi at the bottom with number of WLAN card. Using this number in Google, you can identify the card.

  Anyway, there is not a lot of possibilities because on the Toshiba support page there are two WLAN drivers listed for your model of laptop. Try to install both of them. One of them must be good.

  Good luck!

• Satellite Pro A10 PSA15E: update BIOS to use 160 GB HARD drive

  Hello

  I recently bought a second had Toshiba A10 Pro model reference PSA15E-03U82-EN. I was not able to upgrade the disk hard the 40gig towards a 160gig that I have, but it seems that I need to have the original BIOS boot disk to do this.

  How do I keep it? Can I download it and create my own?

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  If I understand you just upgrade you the BIOS to be able to use the 160 GB HARD drive in your notebook

  Unfortunately, this is not possible. Of course, you can upgrade the BIOS, but this will not help using the 160HDD.
  The BIOS supports a simple limitation of HARD drive and update will not help.

  The laptop supports load 20 GB, 30 GB, 40 GB or 60 GB HARD drive. Maybe you can use also a 80 GB HARD drive but I think that the 160 GB is simply too.

  I hope I could give you clearly

• Help wireless with a necessary Satellite Pro A10

  Hello I just bought a Toshiba Satellite pro A10 psa15e-03u82-en of second hand and I'm having trouble with the wireless option. This computer is equipped with a built-in wireless card?
  The light on the switch doesn't switch on when on is selected and there is no wireless option in Device Manager.
  But if you go to the support page for driver download at the web site of Toshiba drivers for wireless utilities!
  Is the map or can it be mounted under a removable hatch on the base of the laptop?
  Any help will be greatly appreciated a lot

  Hello

  the problem is that wireless is delivered optionally with this machine. This means that the machine does MUST NOT have wireless but can be equipped or bought with the wireless option added.

  You can only do the following: you can get a mini-pci wireless card (I suggest atheros, gently work cards in almost all machines) or you take the PCMCIA wireless card, so Don t you have nothing to install ON your machine.

  In the case of a mini-pci card, you can improve your machine by removing a cover on the bottom (should be more on the front of the machine) and then put the card carefully into the slot. And CAREFULLY stick antenna that plugs into the connectors on the Board. They cable cannot be repaired if you damage one of them.

  It would be better to look for a technician and allow it to install the card. I think it should be much safer. ;)

• Satellite Pro A10 stops on specific opportunities

  Hello!

  I am owner of a satellite Pro A10 (PSA15E). It's hard drive stop working, the pc could not find. So I bought a new, a samsung with 160 GB, IDE, of course.

  Now when I was installing windows, in the part file copy, it just stopped. When I boot it says initialization file fails, then I guess it stops when it was to transfer this important part.

  If I run the cd again, it does not format or reinstall/repair request, it loads only some files and try to start windows and then stops.

  Now, this is where the tricky part comes in: the power led in turn, then again very fast when it stops. I do not use the battery (it is already dead too), and I use an universal AC, a give, 70W adapter. I tried formatting via a LiveCD Ubuntu, with no luck, because when I choose "Try Ubuntu" or "Install Ubuntu" it stops a little as he thought, and then when he is about to leave the menu and do something, it stops in place.

  My only guess, is that this laptop doesn't want me more :(

  I could really use some help, I just spent some 50 on a HARD drive for him and he is the only laptop that I have. I don't think that it is a question of temperature because it stops just at specific times, on some specific choices. If I just let it hang there in the menu (the Ubuntu live CD one) it is not closed. Only when I want him to go further.

  Any help/response is greatly appreciated, and if I take a little too much time to respond is because I don't have access to internet at work now.

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  Theoretically, this could be an overheating problem as Akuma wrote. Therefore, you must clean your laptop using a jet of compressed air. This could blow the dust from the cooling fans and can improve the cooling of the laptop.

  In addition, it would be interesting to know what happens if you run Toshiba Recovery disk recovery facility this work?

• Satellite Pro A10 - Wifi problem with router ZyXEL

  Hello

  I recently acquired a Satellite Pro A10 (PSA15E - 0115Q - EN) off the coast of the friend. It doesn't have a wireless card installed, but I managed to take of a Lucent MPC13A-20 that was installed without any problem, and it is recognized as a Toshiba Wireless LAN Mini PCI Card. However, despite the computer being able to read my neighbors wifi (next door and in the apartment on the floor), he refuses to acknowledge my router, even if I'm in the same room. My router is a ZyXEL P-660HW-T1 v2 which works very well (I tested it with another laptop).

  Can someone please help!

  Thanks in advance,
  Fred

  Hello!

  Make sure your router is using a WiFi standard that supports your card. If you use 802.11n you should drop down to 802.11 g for the tests.

  In addition, you should check the channel of your wireless network card. It should be the same as the router.

• Satellite Pro A10 - SP2 or 3 slows the performance of XP?

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro A10 PSA15E that, over the years, had become very slow.

  Recently, I upgraded it's RAM from 256 to the maximum of 1 GB to try to speed things up, but it did not help.

  Then I reformatted the hard drive and reloaded the system using the Toshiba recovery disks. It worked well and the system performance has been excellent. However, with online safety in mind, I loaded the Windows SP2 (to go then to SP3) and it took the system back to where I started - very, very slow, in fact pretty much unusable.

  Does anyone know if Toshiba compatible SP2 and SP3 on this laptop model?

  If yes how install them without killing performance?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello!

  According to me, SP2 or SP3 is supported on this Toshiba laptop because two Service Packs are contains important security updates and I think that's not the problem.

  If you install SP2 or SP3 you also get the center of security and better Windows Firewall. Maybe you should disable these two services given that the slowdown in the performance of the system (I always disable the two services).
  Just go to start-run-services.msc online online and disable both services and set the startup type to disabled.

  Good bye

• Satellite Pro A10 - but cannot work on what model it is?

  Hi, I am a beginner, but hey!

  I have an old, very old, but perfectly functional Toshiba Satellite Pro. It was purchased in October 2003. On the underside, he says it is a "Satellite Pro A10", but we can also read on the part number that reads 'PSA15E-02VPC-EN.

  What is an A10 or A15. As ever, it's what model is it, when I visit the download page online for pilots, there re a number of different models, I can't work on which it is my pc?

  There are eleven models A10 A10-S100 to A10-S178 and eight models A15-A15-S127 to A15-S1692.

  So this could be one of the 19 models? Any help much appreciated.

  P.S. I have formatted the hard drive, installed a clean copy of Windows XP, so now I need drivers.

  Hello

  According to your post, you have a series of Satellite Pro A10 PSA15E

  The drivers are located on the page of the European driver Toshiba;
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com

  But the laptop is old, then you must check the box Archive to get the drivers for this series. In product type choose Archive simple and then point to Satellite Pro A10 PSA15E ;)

• Satellite Pro A10 - no wireless network card are not not in Device Manager

  On the front of this laptop is a wireless switch - this switch is set on, Windows XP Pro can't find any wireless device - Windows Device Manager shows not all adater wireless. You can advice please - what do I need to install driver - this laptop supports wireless?

  Thank you very much

  Owen

  Hello

  Usually, if you have a laptop wireless switch should have a wireless LAN card too. In your case I would try to install the driver. Then the WLAn card should appear correctly in Device Manager:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

  If that doesn t work, you can try a BIOS update.

  Are you running the factory settings or you have installed your own version of Windows?

• How to install the adapter wireless network in Satellite Pro A10

  I'm trying to set up a wireless connection with my Satellite Pro A10. I thought it was active wireless, but when I switch the wireless switch, no light comes on and there is no card listed under network adapters wireless (so I guess not).

  Is it easy to install a wireless adapter (i.e. can I do it myself or I must be done by a professional)? Can anyone recommend what card I should by (or any other that I should avoid)?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  According to the specification of the specifications your A10 Pro Satellite is WLAN ready. In notebook specification it has listed two compatible WIFI cards:
  PA3212U-4MPC (Agere 802. 11b) and PA3273U-2MPC (802. 11a / b).

  I don't really know if you can use some faster wireless network cards with the g standard. You may be lucky and someone will post here results update WLAN card.

  I'm not sure 100% where the WLAN slot is placed but check it please under the lid placed close to the battery.

• Wireless Lan Card for Satellite Pro A10

  My Satellite Pro A10 never had a map of network wireless installed when new. I really want to add - it now to the machine in order to prolong his life, what kind of card need me?

  Hi robermd,

  If you are Satellite A10 was never equipped with wireless network card, you need to check if it s equipped of two antenna cables WLAN before you buy a wireless network card. The antennas are behind the plastic screen and usually under the keyboard you can find.

  If you n t have such WLAN cables you can t install a wireless network card.
