Satellite Pro A100 is not recognized any amount of RAM

Hello

I have a Satellite Pro A100 and I just bought 1 GB of additional memory. There are two locations, each with a capacity of 1 GB.
When I put the new memory into the slot and the old 512 MB original memory in slot B and the computer says it is 1 GB.

I have them two-way round so that the 512 MB is has the 1 GB in B. Now the computer says that there is 512 MB.
Is there anything I can do to work B slot? I have the latest version of the BIOS update.

Thanks in advance.

Hello

> original 512K of Ram also works in A slot, but not in the housing B.
This looks like your slot B is defective, mate :(

I think that, in this case, you can't. You can swap the card mother but that s all.

  • Satellite Pro A100 will not start!

    Hello

    I am having trouble with a Tosh. Satellite Pro A100 (model: PSAACE).

    The laptop was acting kinda funny for the last week (turned off on its own, saying that it is running on battery when pluged) then today he has decided to power off on it's own and does not restart.

    Having checked it of get out the power supply, have tried with and without the etcetc... This battery with no luck...

    When I press the power button the only thing that happens is the symble of battery next to her light flashed orange 11 times (same lengtht flashed

    Hello

    > When I press the power button, the only thing that happens is light with the symbol of the pile beside it flashed orange 11 times (same length flashes each time).

    Hmm I think that it s a hardware problem. I would say that this s a motherboard problem.
    Is the motherboard provides and flashing, error code.
    This only happens if a serious hardware problem has been detected

    Unfortunately, only the ASP can read this code and may know what this code means but certainly must be a hardware problem.

    In this case an ASP is your last resort.

  • Re: Satellite Pro A40 - has not found any connection WLAN in range

    I have problem with my laptop. I have Toshiba Satellite Pro A40 [model N°-PSA45E-001YMFS] with Microsoft Windows XP SP3 and I wanted to add a WiFi atheros (atheros 5005g) ar58mb5 map and an having problem.
    I have instaled lastes drivers for it. I see in drevice Manager and seems to work fine but when I try to look for other wirless shows that this text "found no wireless networks in range.

    First question: this model of laptop is possible to have this part?
    Second: Will it work?

    Sorry for my possible mistakes with this post but my English isn't correctly. Plese give me a quick answer for her.

    null

    Hey,.

    As far as I know a few Satellite Pro A40 were available with WLAN connectivity and other models not so theoretically WLAN works with Satellite Pro A40.

    You have installed the card WLAN, you connect the two antenna WLAN (black and white) cables to the WLAN card?
    Or you didn t these antenna cables?

  • Satellite Pro A100: Battery not charging

    Hello

    I wonder if anyone can help. I have the laptop above and just before the warranty run out, I had a problem with the power cable because it would not require the laptop and would also make a funny type of sparking sound.

    I sent it to Toshiba who could not find any problem with him (he did only occasionally - usually after using it for an hour or two) and the laptop returned me which worked well.

    Shortly after the warranty missed, I had another problem with the power. The laptop battery is dead and the power cable would not charge the battery at all. When the laptop is connected or not connected, the only light I get when you press the power button is the orange flashing light telling me that the battery has no charge.

    So I bought a new power cable thinking it would fix the problem, to find that this was not the case and the laptop would not even charge.

    I Dove and bought a new battery hoping that was what was causing the problem, only discover that even once the battery was not at fault either.

    If someone had a similar problem or know someone how / repair shop what to do to solve this problem without having to spend a fortune on take it to a PC? After calling trick a couple where I live, they said they would only do what I did - change battery and charger - and if that did not fix then told me to buy a new laptop.

    Help, please!

    Hello

    Sorry for this news but this question looks very bad.
    First of all my first thought was a battery defective, but according to your message, we can exclude this possibility

    Everything looks like a malfunction of the card mother:(bien sûr ce n'est qu'une suggestion, mais si l'adaptateur est ok et la nouvelle batterie doesn t trop puis une panne de carte mère est possible.)

    I think that there is not much to do. First, you must be 100% sure of the breakdown. Verification of the laptop is so necessary and inevitable to see what's exactly wrong.
    That's why I really would recommend contacting an ASP and ask for details and additional handling.

    But be aware that the exchange of the mobo is a costly affair because the motherboard is one of the parts expensive notebooks. Lets hope you n t need to replace it

    Good luck

  • Satellite Pro 6100: disk not recognized HARD - error IDE #0

    I just replaced a failed HARD drive from MK4019GAX in my 6100 Pro of the Satellite with a MK4026GAX and have tried to install XP Home. I can't recognize the hard drive of the computer.

    When I boot, I get a message ERROR IDE #0 before installing Windows, then a message saying that all third party SCSI drivers should be installed first. (I'm starting with the Windows disk in the drive) then when it is at the end of the installation process a message saying that "put in place did not any hard drives installed in your computer.

    If I boot without the Windows I'm getting PXE - E61 Media test failure.

    When I go into the BIOS ACPI BIOS version 1.90, under devices "Mode HDD = used (s) ' I can't get in to change and there is nowhere else that seems related to the hard drive (apart from the boot priority section).

    I read on a forum somewhere that there could be problems getting the BIOS to recognize a new HARD drive.

    It is a common problem for this model, or is the new hard drive may be defective?
    Is there a workaround or a solution?

    If all requested assistance right.

    DM

    Hello

    This error message indicates that the HARD disk drive was not properly acknowledged. The fact is that this unit uses a regular IDE (ATA-5) interface and the new HARD drive is supported by this interface.
    In this case, I assume that the HARD drive has not been installed correctly. Try to remove the HARD drive and check the connections.
    The other possibility is that the HARD disk controller is dead.
    In this case, the service partner must check the laptop.

  • New HDD on Satellite Pro L10 is not recognized correctly

    Hello

    I changed my old hard drive (60 GB) with one of 160 GB, but my laptop does not recognize this size. It gives me only 127 GB. I updated my BIOS and update Windows XP SP3 home edition
    I also tried with partition magic. The curious thing is that sometimes, it happens that partition magic sees the 160 GB, I can extend the size of 127 to 160 GB and I can create an additional partition (drive D) of say 40GB.

    When I copy data from this partition I get an error and stops just my laptop.
    After the restart, he says that he cannot find an operating system.

    Can someone help me please?
    Thank you

    Hello

    I'm afraid there is not much to do. Entire HARD disk capacity knows correctly or you must accept that the BIOS can't handle with this HARD drive. This model of laptop is almost 4 years and I can imagine that there is a limitation in the BIOS.

    Maybe you should be happy with 120 GB of HARD drive. And the 160 GB one, you can use as external HARD drive.

    One more thing: have you noticed any functionality problems after installing SP3?

    Hello!

    You have the same problem, if it is start with battery or AC/DC adapter?

    In the worst cases, you need help from the ASP. The technician must check your laptop to make sure that the part or parts are defective.

  • Bluetooth is not recognized on Satellite Pro A100

    I have a Satellite Pro A100 828 running Win XP Pro.

    He is supposed to have integrated bluetooth but when I install the bluetooth stack, a message appears saying peripheral usb has malfunctioned and is not recognized by windows.

    In Device Manager, it is listed as an unknown device.
    I tried different versions of the bluetooth stack, but the same message still appears.

    Is there a software fix for this or does this mean that my hardware is defective? Would be grateful for any advice.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    where downloaded battery Bluetooth? And another question: do you have bluetooth never work properly? It would be interesting.
    Try another might be to download a Linux Live-CD and to check if the problem is perhaps more a hardware related issue.

    So, if you need an alternative download source then try this address:

  • Upgrade of RAM in my Satellite Pro A100 (PSAA3E) was not recognized.

    I have a Pro A100 (PSAA3E) with only 512 MB of RAM.

    I added another identical stick but only 1 has been recognized.
    Each stick is recognised individually in each slot, but never as a 1 GB together. Thus, the two sticks are ok and two slots are okay!

    How can I remedy so that both are recognized?

    Did you use one that is recommended by Toshiba?
    Seems the two modules aren't compatible together hmmm seems very strange.

    How you did upgrade the memory?
    You must disconnect all cables and remove the battery. Then install the memory modules and enter the BIOS. There, you should check if the memory has been increased and set the default BIOS. Don t forget to safe settings!

    Good luck

  • 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. ;)

  • 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.

    brgds

    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!

  • Carpet * a DVD-RAM UJ - 841S does not recognize movie DVD on Satellite Pro A100

    I have a portable Satellite Pro A100-PSAAPE.

    Initially the played DVD movies very well, but now it does not recognize DVD movie at all.

    The drive itself is recognized and works very well with recovery DVD and CD-ROM.

    Phone support: they had me reinstall the driver and boot from the recovery DVD. This does not solve the problem. They then said to do a system restore. Tried, but it seems that the previous restorations of system are in themselves unsuccessful and the restoration of the system that has worked has not solved the problem.

    MediaPlayer and Intervideo WinDVD seem to work well, but do not find the DVD in the drive.

    They advise now reinstall me to factory setting, but don't want to build the laptop up to scratch etc, so I'm hoping that there may always be a solution.

    Can anyone help please?

    Thank you

    Best wishes

    Hello

    You understand that you must specify if it is a hardware or software problem.
    Unfortunately, you can find this secret only using recovery DVD (CD).
    Toshiba recovery installation will define the laptop back to the factory settings. In this case you may find whether or not the CD/DVD device is defective.

    If the player will not play the DVD after the reinstallation of the operating system, then chances are that it is a CD/DVD drive error.

  • Satellite Pro A100 - recovery disc creator does not exist!

    Can anyone help! My laptop works fine, but I wanted to create a bootdisk problems.

    But Toshiba Assist > Protect & Fix > does not give me an option to create a startup disk.
    Should this with this model?

    I have the recovery disk Toshiba that came with the computer, but were warned NOT to test, otherwise it can actually cause me problems!
    Any ideas?

    Satellite Pro A100-302
    Part number: PSAACE-008002EN

    This option is not available on this model of laptop. Because of this, Toshiba offers recovery DVDs which can be used for the installation of operating system.

    > I have the recovery disk Toshiba that came with the computer, but were warned NOT to test, otherwise it can actually cause me problems!
    This info can only come from people who don't know what they are talking about. Please ask this person what he exactly meant, and I will offer you the good explanation on the recovery procedure if you want to.
