  Hello

  I assume that you have downloaded the zip package.
  Rename the package for example in "display driver" and then uncompress the package.
  Then go to the folder where the driver was decompressed and then launch the installation.

  Can you do this?

  TOSHIBA SATELLITE PRO A100

  Hello

  Your ad is not really useful.
  I mean that there is no detail about your problem
  You should first check if the laptop supports the wireless network card.
  This can be done in the Device Manager.

  Usually the WLan card must appear in Manager devices-> network adapters.
  If it s are not it is that the WLan card is not built in or the driver WLan is not installed. If the WLan driver is not installed then you should see yellow exclamation (or unknown device).

  But if the wireless network adapter is listed correctly then you should check if the WLan notebooks have been enabled. In order to activate the WLan you have to press FN + F8 and you put the switch on IT until the small LED flash.

  Finally, to configure the WiFi connection (right name WLan, encryption settings, etc...)

• Satellite Pro A100 - cannot install audio driver

  Hello

  Hope someone can help, I can't get an audio driver to work, I tried some different drivers now and none seem not to work.

  I tried all the drivers on the Toshiba driver download site with no luck. I always left with a yellow question mark in Device Manager. (Satellite Pro 100) During installation, the window I have instull MICROSOFT BUS DRIVER BEFORE this r audio (Realtek HDA for XP).

  Where can I get this driver (Appreicate if someone could point me in the right direction), or can someone give me another piece of useful advice?

  Appreciate any help

  Thank you.

  I think that this is a known issue.

  Sometimes it s useful to search the Microsoft Knowledge Base. There, I found these interesting documents:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/835221

  It is very important to install these patches before you install the driver.

• Satellite Pro P100: After installing OS costs some devices do not work

  Hello

  I have the laptop above.
  I formatted the hard drive to install a new copy of windows xp. I can't find any drivers!
  I downloaded everything from the support page but my finger print scanner does not work says it is not connected.

  My bluetooth cannot be found and in device manager and I got yellow question mark next to the ethernet controller and I have an unknown device with the yellow mark.

  Its doin my head in...

  Hello

  > I ve downloaded everything from the support page

  It seems that you have not downloaded any driver and utilities, or you have the drivers installed in the wrong order.
  Did you follow the guidelines in the installation instructions? Isn't it? Why not?

  If you install the drivers listed in the installation instructions, everything will work ;)

• Satellite Pro P300 - after Truesuite update I can't open protected files

  Hello
  Sorry for my bad English, but I came to Italy, and here we do not have any forum that can solve my problem.

  I have a Toshiba laptop pro P300 with fingerprint reader. I use fingerprints to log and protect certain files, simply out of curiosity, he seemed cool...: |
  The problem was born while I recently updated "truesuite access manager. Since I did the update I can not open protected files, I have not read that I have to remove the protection before the update (damn...), but these files are important to me and I have to reopen them.

  To solve the problem at all first I restore the system prior to the update to have the old version and open these files again, but my fingers are deleted and I can not create new prints because the pc said "could not open the sensor. I don't know what that means.
  I thought he needs some drivers, so I reinstalled truesuite Manager to access, several times, I reinstalled the BIOS, I did the scan of the drive and the diagnosis of toshiba, but the sensor still does not work.

  I think that if I can record a fingerprint with the old version of the program I will be protected able to open files again (and I will no longer protect them) because only the old version of the program knows how to decrypt these files, but I do not know how to enable the fingerprint sensor. Could someone help me, please?
  Thank you very much!

  The update of Truesuite comes WindowsUpdate? Or did you download the update from the Web from Toshiba site?

  You can use your backup password (usually its your Windows password) to access the files?

• Satellite Pro A100 - how to activate the shortcut keyboard-support on Vista?

  Hello. I've recently updated my satellite pro a100-828 to windows vista, and things work well to a large extent with two exceptions:

  1. I can't figure out how to activate the shortcut keyboard-support: media-keys to the left and the fn keys do nothing. There seems to be no shortcut keyboard-utility for windows vista in the drivers * tion. So what to do?
  2. the standby electricity utility is not available, which is good because of the power saver new vista. Except that I can't dim the screen, so the battery does not last me too long. How can I do this?

  Thanks in advance
  Best regards
  Christian

  Hello

  These problems can be solved in a few minutes. You only need the added package Toshiba. It contains the driver for the FN - key, Toshiba Power Saver and more useful tips.

• Cannot use wireless LAN with my Satellite Pro A100

  Toshiba Satellite Pro A100-830
  NETGEAR DG834G

  Can not use the Wi - Fi connection. When you use "Free Config" to find peripheral wireless the popup "this connection is controlled by other software. I don't know what that means and what software controls the connection. I have other laptop which is duly connected by wireless. I'm ok with wired connection.

  I don't know much about the technical aspects and therefore ask for help so any reader can.
  Thank you
  Kris

  > Can't use the Wi - Fi connection. When you use "Free Config" to find peripheral wireless the popup "this connection is controlled by other software.

  You may not use the ConfigFree for configuring Wlan but own Vista configuration options or the WLan configuration tool like Atheros Clint Utility or Intel ProSet utility. It depends on the WLan card which utility can be used.
  Card Intel-> Intel ProSet utility; Card Atheros WLan-> Atheros Clint Utility

  I guess the message + this connection is controlled by other software + appears because one of the above options controls the WLan.

• Satellite Pro A100 PSAASE: error Power Saver and LAN? After downgrade to XP

  Hello
  I have a toshiba satellite pro A100-psaase!
  I could not find this model on the toshiba site, so I chose the A100-psaas software.

  The laptop came with windows vista. I have it downgraded to windows xp, has chosen the psaas model so that I can download the drivers.

  I have 2 problems: the first is the eve of power software, it does not work. Start windows every time I get an error in the energy saver. I can not uninstall.

  My second problem is, that a windows pop who found a network controller and I can't find any software or driver for it. So in Device Manager, an exclamation point on the icon of the network controller.

  The funny thing is that I have internet and all.
  I can't find a solution to these two problems
  Thanks again

  Hello

  You have chosen the correct unit. The satellite Pro A100 PSAASE is the same model as PSAAS.
  I put t know why the power gain error appears, but for most of these errors occur because the tools and utilities have been installed in the wrong order!
  Seems that the installation instruction has been placed on the page of the driver Tosh! Read and follow the installation guide lines! Proper installation is important and necessary.

  The LAN drivers are also published on the page! There are 2 different versions. Try them both!
  The laptop supports a Lan Intel Ekron-R 82562GZ chip. Compatible drivers, you can also find on the Intel page!

  Good day

• Satellite Pro A100-622 can not read the card SD and Memory Stick with Windows Explorer

  I have a Satellite Pro A100-622 running MS Vista Home Basic Edition. I tried to use the card reader integrated with SD and Memory Stick card but cannot view the contents using Windows Explorer.

  In both cases, the laptop recognizes the card and try to install new hardware. Unable to do so, he asks the drive of the software provided with the cards. Any software not provided with a card and I cannot find drivers to make the drive work.

  The only application that I can find on the laptop that is associated with the player is a module of SD formatting, but I don't want to format the card (s) I want to just read the current content of them and add files.

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  You can download the drivers (and especially in your case for the sd-card-reader) here:

  http://PC-support.Toshiba-Europe.com/Vista/

  and here

  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

  So the other point is the service of the SD card must be enabled in the start menu-> Control Panel (change to Classic view)-> Administration-> Services-> Chip card (at this point, you must activate the service and configure it to start at windows startup).

  If you have any other questions, just ask. ;)

  Good bye

• Re: Satellite Pro A100 PSAA3E: after XP installation does not work

  Hello

  I recently bought a psaa3e Satellite Pro A100.
  I formatted and installed Win XP. Everything works except the sound.
  In Device Manager its shows a PCI device problem.

  I think I need the pci to install before my sound card is recognized.
  I could be wrong and often am installed all drivers I could find on this site for my laptop.
  Any suggestions please, its driving me crazy.

  spadger

  The solution is simple.
  After installing Xp, you must install all the service packs. SP2 is important.
  In addition, you will need to upgrade the XP to the last State. All fixes and patches must be installed also.
  The * KB888111 * and * KB835221 hotfix * must be installed before installing the audio driver.

  After installing the hotfix, restart the computer, and then reinstall the audio driver!

  Good luck

• Satellite Pro A100 - where can I find the driver for ethernet controller?

  I recently changed my OS from Vista to XP and I'm not able to find a driver for the ethernet controller in my Satellite Pro A100 PSAAPE.

  Anyone know where I can get this driver from?

  Thank you!

  > I had already checked and cannot see the pilot
  I don't believe that. I checked the Toshiba download page, and you can see two LAN drivers for your model laptop.
  Install the latest version 9.2.24 and I think everything will be OK.

• Satellite Pro A100 - no restore CD - can I use the key to Toshiba?

  Hi all

  I bought quite old friend Satellite Pro A100 laptop and lost windows XP Pro CD,
  I have the product key.

  Can I get Windows xp pro eng cd somewhere and install it on my laptop with my cd key?

  Thanks for your help

  Hello

  The serial key you found at the bottom of the device belongs to the Windows OS preinstalled Toshiba and touches it s an OEM that will NOT work with the other disks in Windows XP.

  This means that if you want to install Windows XP on this notebook then you buy the Toshiba recovery disc again the ASP in your country or you will take an original Microsoft Win XP disc and will use this disk and the key that belongs to this Win XP OS.

  You have these two options.

• Satellite Pro A100 - can I exchange the CPU?

  Hello world

  I have a Satellite Pro A100-198 with a core duo processor. I would like to replace the processor of a Satellite Pro A100 830, which is Core2Duo in the Pro A100-198. They both have the same chipset-expected-they be any problem with that? This would increase the clock speed of 1.66 GHz to 2.0 GHz. They all have two Intel 945 PM Express chipset.

  I just upgraded from XP to Windows 7 32 bit and the performance score is 3.4. My BIOS version is 1.9 and I see there is an upgrade to win all the version 6, but I can't find the BIOS version history - it is better to upgrade. For the moment, I'll see if there are problems.

  Thanks in advance Mick

  Hi Mick,

  As far as I know the two books belongs to the PSAACE series. Can you confirm this? You can find this information on the underside of the laptop.

  Normally if the books belong to the same series, it should be possible to exchange the CPU. They use the same hardware, so you can exchange.

  But don t forget this isn't supported CPU upgrade. If you have the warranty you will lose it. Other s CPU are pre-tested not on your laptop.
