• Satellite PRO A100 - failure of wireless connectivity

  Hello world

  I have a problem to connect to my router wireless from a Satellite PRO A100 XP pro with integrated Atheros Wlan. Any suggestions on how to proceed would be welcome.

  The laptop can see the wireless network and says it is connected, if I ask it to connect, but fails to get an IP by DHCP - leaving a 169. 254.x.y address and "limited connectivity or no network. I tried the button fix but to no avail. If I used a static IP address on the same subnet as the router and gateway ping request times out. Successful ping 127.0.0.1 and the IP address of the host.

  Another PC can connect to the wireless router.
  The firewall on the laptop is disabled.
  The wired LAN works well.
  I tried to connect to two different (the two Linksys) wireless routers without success.
  I used different encryption configurations, including none.

  Any thoughts on how to proceed?

  Have you tried to reboot your router and check the WLAN connectivity again?

• Virtual sound on Satellite Pro A100 problem

  Hello.

  I have the Satellite Pro A100 (PSAAC) "PSAACE - 00200DG 3"with Windows XP."
  I recently formatted my hard drive and run my Toshiba Recovery CD. Everything worked very well. As I downloaded the latest drivers for my computer including the Toshiba Virtual Sound drivers. After I deleted the old Virtual Sound driver and started installing new version of same message appears "Toshiba Virtual Sound can't stand your computer."
  Then I tried to install a later version of the same thing that was on the recovery CD and I would get the same message again. Moreover, after any new installation of Windows XP, Virtual Sound works OK. Please someone had the same problem and could you give me a solution.

  Thank you!!!

  Have you downloaded the right version? I mean the version for your model of laptop (PSAAC)?

• S-video on Satellite Pro A100 problem

  Hi, I recently bought a new satellite pro a100 with XP pre-installed-one of my main reasons to choose this as the price was the built-in s-video connector so I can get my screen up on my tv. However, I have not yet got it working and you'd be grateful for all the assistance.

  It is connected to my TV via a s-video cable, connected to an s-video/SCART adapter to work. Nothing is display on the screen and in the ATI displays the setting, control panel is the only option that is imparted to me. The other 2, including television are grayed out.

  Maybe something needs to be configured, but I have not found information of any use yet.

  Thank you

  Marcus

  Hello

  As far as I know avoid any problems if you want to connect the laptop to the TV. After connecting, please use the FN + F5 key combination and get on TV.

  It can happen that picture will be black and white, but it is because S-video in on television port is not enabled.

• Satellite Pro A100: Problem of posting Key

  Hello

  Last summer, we bought twenty Satellite Pro A100 computer laptop for use in our school. In the last six months, we had several problems with keys off keyboard. It is a great disappointment as it was at my suggestion that buy us Toshiba laptops. Is it possible that we can get this situation corrected? I think that the best approach would be to transfer all the missing keys on a laptop and then put it back, but if this is going to be a constant problem in the loss of keys, then I would prefer that another solution is found.

  I would appreciate an answer as soon as possible, because we are currently without the use of these machines.

  Thank you

  Hello Simon

  I read this forum for a long time because I use Toshiba laptops. To be honest, your story is really amazing. To untie me key cannot be done without a current and pull them up. Each unique key is set with small plastic hooks. I use the keyboard on my Satellite M70 (older than your A100) every day and quite extensively, but the keyboard is still in good condition.

  Please don't be crazy about me, but its use in school is also... How to say... in question. Are you sure that the students of your school correctly use laptops? In my opinion, you should contact the nearest authorized partner and attempt to clarify the situation.

• Satellite Pro A100-830 with 4 GB of memory but the BIOS tells me that I have only 3 GB

  I have a Satellite Pro A100-830 and I bought the maximum memory for what is 2x2gb, for a total of 4 GB in my world. When I put the DIMMs in themselves in a slot, the BIOS reports 2 GB. BIOS Bravo! When I put both together, I see only 3 GB in the bios!

  I found this link on the Crucial site. http://www.crucial.com/kb/answer.asp?QID=4251

  Suggest page files, peripherals etc. occupy memory on your system at startup, before the operating system is used I guess. If you do not have the maximum memory installed, you should see the total memory. If you got the maximum memory installed, you will not see the memory used by page etc. files. Why would it be? Why you would see 2 GB if you have only 2 GB but then see 3 GB if you have 4 GB due to the system!

  Anyone can shed some light on this subject and be eligible or reject the information in this link. I need to replace the memory and/or the pc?

  Thank you

  Mark

  This is not a BIOS problem but a Windows.
  I found this info:
  Windows XP Professional 32-bit is limited to 4 GB of address space. If you have 4 GB of RAM installed, it won't show 4 GB in Windows. You will probably get what the size of your pagefile subtracted the 4 GB.

  Some of this address space is reserved for the hardware and the operating system... so you will never have access to the 4 GB maximum in any case. If you want access to 4 GB of RAM +... your best solution is to pick up XP Pro 64 - bit... but this will only work if your CPU P4 has EMT64. (64-bit)
  You can also try to turn on DEP if it is not already enabled... This will also allow EAP that can give you access to all 4 GB

  So finally a response:
  > Do I need to replace the memory and/or the pc
  -> No, everything is ok... you need not to change the hardware

• Satellite Pro A100 (PSAAC) with WIN XP - shutdown problem

  I have problems with my laptop stops not when I ask to do. The message that TSrsTRAYWND isn't closing arrives and I'm invited to manual closing. Even if I do this, the machine "blockages" and does not shut down. I tried the boot without failure and closure then - it does correctly, but then when I start normally and try to stop, it is up to the "hanging" again. The operating system and other programs are fully up-to-date.

  Can anyone suggest one solution, from other online for one, I see that others have the same problem, without a solution yet.

  In anticipation of your help, thank you!

  PS - I can't find any reference to the TSrsTRAYWND anywhere.

  Hello

  I tried on my laptop for a TSrsTRAYWND.exe file but I could t find anything. If you search for this file on the HARD drive you get a result?

  I think it has something to with the drivers/software that will be loaded on Windows start. You should try to disable all programs in msconfig-start up that you don't need online. Then try again.

  Sorry, but everything that s what I can say at the moment.

• Satellite Pro A300: Problem with Microsoft Security Essentials

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300 with XP SP3 and now deleted AVG Free and installed Microsoft Security Essentialls (MSE).

  The result is after installing MSE and begin my laptop cursor is stuck in the center of the screen and will not respond to the inputs of the mouse or the keyboard.

  In aid of F12 to get my startup options allowed me to try the Safe Mode and last known good Configuration etc but they all show the same functionality, IE freeze when the desktop appears. XP seems to be operating in the background, for example system clock stays on time, "notice" system if its wifi singal is removed etc.

  Just to make the day to try to do an OS reinstall pressing 0 to on has no effect - system just boots in XP - so I can't my recovery partition!

  I have now is not a HW problem as the /kbd cursor works if I boot into a non-windows system, for example UBUNTU CD

  Any suggestions welcome - such as can I download a recovery on antother PC CD and burn a recovery CD?

  Hello

  I have no idea what happened after installing Microsoft Security Essentials, but it seems that you are not able to access the files on the HARD drive
  I think you need to reinstall the operating system using HARD drive recovery.
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/Ann.jspa?annID=58

  But this would format the system partition :(

  In order to save the files from the HARD drive, I recommend using / boot from a bootable floppy from Win PE.
  Win PE (also called BartPE) is a thin window OS that is bootable CD and don t need to be installed on the HARD drive.

• Problem with wireless - Vista Network and Sharing Center does not recognize my connection!

  I use the Home Visa software and my network and sharing Center does not recognize my connection but I can access the internet without any problem. Previously, I was using a wireless router Linksys with an old box of AT & T internet with no problems. The problems started after I updated my AT & T internet box that made obsolete the linksys router and now the network share does not connect. I just have the problem of getting the network and sharing device recognizing that I am actually connected to a wireless network. I can't use my printer or share files with other people. I can't get my wireless printer to work if I restart my computer and I have the documents I want printed already sent to the printer. My network and sharing Center also works very well for a few seconds when I start my computer then it turns off again.

• Satellite Pro L10 problem with Ports COM/Hyperterminal & Bluetooth

  Hello
  I have the following problems with the above machine:

  (1) I have attached an external series COM port to the machine. However, I can not connect to the COM Port using Hyperterminal.
  (2) I installed a Bluetooth USB adapter, but I can't view the protocol configuration.

  Each of the above works perfectly with another laptop that doesn't have a Bluetooth or even a network card.

  Everyone has experienced similar problems. I use WinXP SP2.

  Thank you

  MC

  Hello

  1, in which is the external COM port connected? Is detected in a straight path in Device Manager? What is the error msg to Hyperterminal?
  When connected via PCMCIA, try to change the settings for PCMCIA slot in the BIOS!

  2, try to reinstall the Toshiba Bluetooth stack! There may be some problems. The MS Bluetooth stack does not work properly with the Toshiba devices and one of the earlier Toshiba Bluetooth stack is not signed by Windows XP Service Pack 2!

• Satellite Pro C850 - problems with WiFi after Windows update 8.1

  Hello

  I was wondering if someone could give some advice on a problem I have.

  Had an adjustable C850 Pro for a few months and worked well on Windows 8.
  I myself am then harassed and intimidated by Microsoft Update in order to install Windows 8.1 and in a moment of weakness, I succumbed (got sick of the nagging).

  Since that time, my wifi is very intermittent; either I'm on another computer write this and the laptop is essentially not connected to the internet.

  For some reason any (although I didn't try it before), I can not connect via ethernet either, so I think it's probably the driver problems. (I also tried to connect the public wifi but fails).

  I tried to install the driver WiFi Toshiba 8.1 but that has not solved the problem.
  Then I noticed that I'm supposed to install a bunch of drivers in the order.

  Maximum setting to do it, but the first package (associated with bluetooth) said I have to remove the current driver... I try by "turning off", then "Uninstall" but 8.1 seems to re - install automatically and I don't know how to disable this option (I can try to delete the driver file, I guess, but I'm sure 8.1 covered too and will probably launch a drone to try me out ", if I do). *

  Any kind soul there suggestions on a way forward? Pls.

  I see in the instructions of Toshiba Windows Update 8.1 should I have uninstalled the drivers before the update, but there is not much I can do about it now. :(

  Hello

  > I don't see in the instructions of Toshiba Windows Update 8.1 should I have uninstalled the drivers before the update, but there is not much I can do about it now
  All your problems with the Windows 8.1 update related to the fact that you have not upgraded the Windows 8.1 system as recommended by Toshiba.

  Details:
  http://www.Toshiba.EU/innovation/generic/windows8_1-message/

  Solution?
  Back to Windows 8 (reset the system back to factory settings)
  Then, install all updates and patches for Windows 8 and follow along with the upgrade of system as described on the Toshiba Windows 8.1 upgrade page

  On the page of the Toshiba UE driver, you will find all the instruments that must be installed in the correct order and Windows 8.1 driver!

• Satellite Pro M40X-132: scalable wireless Lan?

  Hello

  I have a PC laptop Toshiba M40X-132. It doesn't have a wireless installed inside the adapter. It cable antenna for this card.

  On the site where the specifications are listed, I see that the computer is "scalable wireless lan. If you want to check, here is the link: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/selected_product_option.jsp?service=EU&PRODUCT_ID= 104069 & DISC_MODEL = 0

  I opened my computer and noticed that there are no slot mini pci installed. However, I found the place on the motherboard that is generally used to install such a slot with a certain set of 15-20 minutes with a weld. :) I know I'm losing my warranty by doing this, but I think it would be better to take the risk that, in order to exploit external PCMCIA or USB devices all the time.

  So, I have a slot mini pci I bought in a store for electronic components. The place for the installation of such a location are tinned on the motherboard. I think cleaning of Tin from there and then set the slot I.

  The big question is the following: suppose that I managed to solder correctly such a slot on the motherboard. It will work or not? I mean, the slot is just the thing that does not exist, or there is some other components and electronic parts which are now absent and doing this slot work?

  Thank you for your advice. I'm really confused.

  Good day! :)

  Hello Stefan

  I really put t understand you not at all. First I put t really believe someone make these experiences and you will be very happy if someone has this kind of experience.

  And if it works, how you want to install the WiFi antenna? You want to dismantle the entire screen to do this and to do it properly? Believe me that it is a bad idea.

  The USB wireless costs about 25 euros and in 10 minutes, you can configure and use the WLAN.

  Please think about this one more time.

  Good luck!

• Satellite Pro C650D - problems with the audio and game controllers

  Hello

  I recently had problems with my microphone and speakers/headphones and game controllers.
  Sometimes the microphone stops working when on Skype, for example, but most of the time works fine, once again, when I restart the pc.

  Stakeholders sometimes still work when I connect headset.
  Some of the sounds are still coming through the speakers while some coming through the headphones.

  I have a usb game controller which also did not work everything properly.
  If I assign buttons in the program that they do not work in the game.

  All these devices are in Device Manager in a group that makes me think it's sort of annoying update doubtful that messes with them.

  Any body have similar problems or know what to do better?

  See you soon
  Laurin

  Hello

  Can you please send some details on the laptop model and the system you are using?

  With regard to the issue of sound/mic:
  > The microphone sometimes stops working when on Skype, for example, but most of the time works fine, once again, when I restart the pc.

  Are you talking about internal microphone or external? This only happens using Skype?
  In your case I would test the microphone using different applications to make sure that is not a Skype related issue.

  > Yet sometimes the speakers work when I connect headset.
  I recommend this thread:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=65295

  The user has had a similar problem, but this phenomenon was linked to the Realtek HD Audio Manager settings.
  She wrote:
  + In the upper right corner, there is a small yellow folder called "Connector settings" in my version. +
  + There, finally I could re-enable the setting "enable popup dialog box, when the unit is plugged. +

  + So now when I plug an external speaker or headphones, it appears, and I select the option "helmet" (instead of "line-in"), and then the sound only through the headphones/ext.speaker.+

  Regarding the game controller:
  > I have a usb game controller which also did not work everything properly.
  > If I attribute buttons in the program, they do not work in the game.
  I put t think its problem of laptop in my opinion, you must make sure that the controller is compatible with the games you play and also recommended to check some info provided by the manufacturer of the game controller.

• Satellite Pro P300 - problem with volume control

  Hello

  I have a problem with my volume control. He worked for the first two months of use value, but now refuses to lower the sound.
  He sort of stutters and actually transforms the sound upward when you turn, he 'left' to drop.

  I markets DEAMS it is a digital control and therefore is not a point 'end' like other laptops. I also noticed others are experieicing this problem.

  Is there a solution to this problem? I don't really like having to manually click on the volume control in the status bar on the window in order to be able to turn the laptop down. Maybe someone can help me?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  In your case, I recommend reinstalling the audio driver and controls (with Win XP) Toshiba or Toshiba VAP (if Vista is installed).
  In addition, you should check if the BIOS can be updated too.

  Sorry for this suggestion, but in my opinion that the question must be related software and the fact is that driver sound and the VAP multimedia button controls and the sound card.

  It of certainly worth a try
