• How to turn on a microphone on a Satellite Pro A120-161?

  Data sheet: Satellite Pro A120-161, already Win XP Pro, now Vista Business.

  The microphone works in Skype, etc. The sound is coming from a computer and record is fine (I can play stuff I recorded before).

  But I can't get the computer to play the sounds from the microphone in real time (as for karaoke). There is no table for the device called a micro mixer, I can not resolve, or reactivate it (it doesn't work in the two OS' are). He was made easily on the other laptop I've had...

  Any suggestions?

  Hello

  I'm sure that you use the external mic because according to the specifications of your Sat Pro anyone internal. I can't test it on my laptop but I'm sure that you will not be able to send sound to the speakers directly.

  Have you used an internal microphone or external on your previous laptop model?

• Satellite Pro A120 has network problems

  Mr President.

  I, Jayarajan.C.N, working as an Assistant Executive Engineer in the Kerala State Electricity Board, Kerala, India.
  We had a laptop brand Thoshiba (Satellite Pro A120 type; PTA83L-08L02N model number; SL.no. Y6131B1488H) as part of a package of type brand MD - 2000 Tesient relay.

  We use this laptop for other official purposes also. It works smoothly.

  But we were faced with the following problems:
  1. we could connect the computer laptop in Local Area Networking with other desktop computers and laptop. But we could not transmit or receive data from the other computer.

  2. we could connect us the laptop to the network in ad-hoc mode wireless and the laptop showed the link as 'excellent '. But as in the case of LAN, data may not be transferred or received.

  3. we tried to use dial-up modem to the laptop. But we do not have internet access. The error showed was 'busy line (error 676) '. In fact, the line was not busy.

  4. we checked to access internet using Reliance Netconnect USB modem after installing its software. He also failed in showing the "username & passwords are wrong in this area.

  5. I added an init string in the Toshiba modem commands: AT & FX1. But before that, I made a mistake. I installed the Client Services for Netware. After that, the connection mode was changed. But I don't know how to uninstall "client services for Netware". I selected the account control user - change the way users log on or off, I received the following message: "client for Netware has disabled the display of welcome and quick user agrees." To restore these features, you must uninstall client services for Netware. As I said before, I don't know how to uninstall the same. Now during log on, I have to use ctrl + alt + delete to log on.

  After you have added the string init AT & FX1, I have only seen the modem trying to catch the net until the "veryfying username and password. But he could not catch the net. Please note that I had installed the client services for Netware. I saw that the modem has been "connecting" even after a few minutes and I noticed the system reacted very slowly.

  In short, we cannot achieve any type of networking and by error logging has been changed...
  We ask your advice detailed without delay.
  Thanks in advance.

• Satellite Pro A120 (PSAC1E) - TV problem

  Hello
  My laptop "Satellite Pro A120 (PSAC1E)" computer does not connect to any type of TV (digital or analog). I tried many different kind of connections to SCART-VGA to VGA-HDMI. I think something is wrong with the VGA output because apparently the Intel graphic card supports the TV/monitor output as the software driver suggests. However, I can't connect the laptop to an external monitor rather easily and without hassle.
  Someone there has the same problem and if so, do you have a solution to this problem (everything!).

  Thank you

  KAV

  Hello

  As far as I know NOT ALL Satellite Pro A120 PSAC1E are equipped with the video output jack!
  I see you are using an external monitor connector!
  This port can ONLY be used with external display (screen) or a projector, but NOT with the TV!

  The TV can be connected to the s-video port that is not available!

  Hi all

  I'm new here so please be gentle!

  I have a Satellite Pro A120, model No. PSACOE - 037014EN and you want to increase the memory 512 MB present. I tried 2 different sets of memory 4 GB (2x2gb), but the machine does not start. I tried the different modules together and on their own but still no joy.

  Where I'm going wrong? This model will not take 2 GB memory modules?

  Any advice will be appreciated.

  Best regards

  Hello

  Before changing something about your hardware, please make sure that if the computer supports the new pieces of material and, therefore, you can also consult the user manual.

  Anyway, I checked this and this laptop can only be upgraded to 2 GB maximum. This means that you can use the module of 1 GB in each slot and * no * 2 GB in each slot.

  So please bring back the memory modules and buy 2x1GB. It will work.

• Satellite Pro A120 battery problem

  Hi all

  I have a portable Satellite Pro A120 and is a battery problem a month ago.
  The battery is not new, but recently changed, 6 months ago.
  Until a few weeks ago, it lasted about 2 hours when full load, until this time
  suddenly dropped 30-40 minutes.
  In addition, sometimes the power of the laptop turns off when it's a few extra vibrations,
  for example, if I put it on a table without the maximum protection.
  In some cases, these, is not possible to turn on the laptop, unless I have remove the battery and put it back in place.

  I initially though that there was a problem with the battery or the battery contacts, but they seem ok.
  I tried to unload it in my laboratory of the company with a power resistance: resistance absorbed 1A continuously for more than 3 hours. As the specification 4400mAh battery, I would say that the battery is ok.

  Is it possible that I have a problem with the battery inside the pc management circuit?
  The battery stress test above seems to show that the charging process is ok. So the problem might be with
  the provision of monitor or battery power.
  Someone at - it experience of similar problems and maybe a solution.
  Or perhaps a work around? As excluding the battery monitoring and auto turn off

  Thanks in advance
  Concerning

  > Is it possible I have a problem with the battery inside the pc management circuit?
  Perhaps, but that's just a guess only a cellphone technician may provide an exactly the answer to this question.

  > Furthermore, sometimes the power of the laptop turns off when it's some additional vibration.
  for example, if I put it on a table without the maximum protection.
  In some cases, these, is not possible to turn on the laptop, unless I have remove the battery and put it back in place.

  It is very strange, I want to say if the contacts of the battery and the battery would be ok, this symptom shouldn't its sounds strange for me, so maybe that's the key why battery don't not lasts more than 30-40 min

  However, I think you should try a new battery before checking the motherboard.

• Installation problems after upgrade the HDD on Satellite Pro A120 (PSAC1E)

  Hello

  I've recently updated my Satellite Pro A120 with more memory and a larger hard drive. The memory I installed is 2 x 1 GB Module (DDR2-667) and the product number of the hard drive is MK2035GSS.

  My computer recognizes both of these upgradges, but since their installation I was able to install all applications (for example Norton Security etc) on my laptop - they seem to spend 1/2 to 3/4 of the way in which the installation process and then just quit smoking and become insensitive or an error message appears. I even tried to put the product recovery disc to try and erase everything and start over but even that does not load in entirely. Any ideas of what could be the cause? Also, I get messages of constant error on the screen and it blue screens and restarts frequently.

  If anyone has any ideas on what could be the cause, I would be extremely grateful for any help!

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  just a question, than to the manufacturer that are the memory modules? And similar modules? Or do you have that you have installed other modules later.
  We can exclude the HARD drive because it doesn´t HARD drive installed. they do not cause bluescreens or similar. In very rare cases, the disk HARD COULD cause errors, but then the pladder or BSOD´s must be REALLY damaged and in your case, the HARD drive is brand new.

  It might be, that memory modules are not compatible with your machine. To avoid these incompatibility issues, you must use the modules of well-known such as kingston and toshiba brands. (I'd rather kingston, they work like a charm in my A100 Sat :))

  Would appreciate comments on your part.

  See you soon

• Performance on a Satellite Pro A120-185 with Windows Vista problems

  Can someone help me with this.
  My laptop is a new Satellite Pro A120-185 with Windows Vista.

  I had my last configuration less portable, but you know what? He was faster!

  I'm supposed to have cetrino duo 2, 2 GHz and cach of 4 MB, FSB 667 MHz, RAM 1 GB, even though they are at 533 MHz, 100 GB 5400 RPM HARD drive / MIN.

  It is slow, not only starting, programs opening, plays something, the browser and even to copy from the CD to the hard drive sometimes give me time 4 days left!

  Clicking on something takes forever. What's wrong?
  Need less to say that with vista no and I mean none, of my devices are busy. Dongle Bluetooth, USB disk, printer, NAS, and and...

  Hey dude,

  Please don t forget that Vista has been installed on your laptop and the additional tools of Toshiba and the utilities that control many additional features!
  There is a huge difference between Vista and early Microsoft operating systems.

  The Vista eat computer resources and many devices old don t work or cannot be installed because the 3rd device manufacturers don t provide Vista drivers!

  In my opinion an upgrade to 2 GB ram would increases the performance of laptop.
  All programs and utilities could be loaded more quickly

• Prerequisites for the replacement of Windows XP for Satellite Pro A120-107

  I don't know that it will have been asked before, however...

  I received a Satellite Pro A120-107 XP. Because XP is not supported, I would like to upgrade to Windows 7, 8 or 8.1. Who should I go for?

  I think I need to improve my memory (currently 512 MB) at least 1 GB. Or should I go to 2 GB. Which would be better?

  And I need a BIOS upgrade? He is currently using vn 1.50 08/24/2006. If I do, what version?

  In your case, I'll try to install Win 7 on this good old classic.

  8.1 Win is the latest system from Microsoft but I'm afraid, you will have some problems with drivers m.

  Win 7 would be the best choice in this case

• Satellite Pro A120 - no power supply the AC adapter

  Hello

  I recently had some problems with powering the my Satellite PRO A120. Initially I was not getting any power to the laptop of my adapter. I bought a new card on ebay that seems to have solved the problem as my laptop turned on once more, even if I could use it only for a few minutes on the stand alone mode as it would drain completely after a few minutes. After a few weeks, the adapter has stopped working. This led me to believe that my battery might be the problem that caused the adapter switch defective.

  I then bought a battery of reco and tried to see how long he would stay on without the adapter - even once the laptop only lasted a few minutes before I die

  I can only use my laptop with a power adapter borrowed right now. The battery is the cause or is there an underlying problem with memory or the motherboard?

  It will be expensive to fix or should I try to buy a battery and the original power cord and see if it works

  Your opinions and comments would be greatly appreciated.

  > After a few weeks, the adapter has stopped working. This led me to believe that my battery might be the problem that caused the adapter switch defective.

  It is a nonsense. The battery does not affect the power adapter!
  The battery loses own performance during use of the laptop and sooner or later, the battery will discharge.
  This is nothing unusual happens to all batteries

  In your case, it could be a defective battery and AC adapter malfunction
  It is very rare that the two parties would begin to malfunction at the same time, but it possible s

  However, in my view the laptop must be tested using the new battery and AC adapter.

• Satellite Pro A120 hangs sometimes

  Hello

  I've had my Satellite Pro A120 for a little over a month now, and during that time, he has frozen maybe five or six times. This is the type of crash response system, which completely stops can be recovered by using the Task Manager to end the process, and the only cure is to turn off and on again. When this happened, the laptop did not turn all particularly demanding programs, maybe Word, iTunes, or Mozilla Firefox.

  This could be due to overheating? The Unit feels often hot to the touch around the vents on the left side, but not excessively hot. Is there a utility I could use to see if all the material is defective?

  I ran the Toshiba PC diagnostic tool, but it says the hard drive, processor and memory are all very well.

  Hello

  Well, it's not easy to say why it happened.
  Yes, your suggestion is good. Something like that could happen if the temperature is too high. But if the laptop overheats the operating system should stop the unit automatically without warning.
  However, to avoid overheating, don't forget that there is enough free space around the laptop for a good air circulation.

  But also the software problem could be a reason for any frizzing. Then the OS on my laptop s brother frisottés several times. I just installed the fresh WinXP and since then everything is ok.
  You should study a bit

• Re: Satellite Pro A120 - CD error appears

  I have problems with a laptop Satellite Pro A120. When the laptop is turned on it is possible to open the CD/DVD drive, so I know the drive functions.

  "However, when the laptop is turned on, the computer displays the screen"in touch with tomorrow TOSHIBA"for a long time, and then the screen goes black and the message CD ERROR" appears. Drive D and does not show on explore.

  I found the instructions to remove LowerFilters and UpperFilters of
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM CurrentControlSet/Control/Class/4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318.

  by running "regedit", but during the restart, the laptop the problem remains.

  I tried also tried to launch the "Product recovery" CD from an external hard drive, but restarting does not account for the CD, but, once restart is completed, it can be seen that it that the external drive was saved.

  When the computer is disconnected on "memory which cannot be read" message is displayed.

  I would be very grateful for a quick response.

  Hey,.

  To be honest, if the CD-ROM error message appears before Windows starts, there seems to be a hardware malfunction. So maybe the CD/DVD drive is not recognized correctly, and therefore the Toshiba screen appears for a long time.

  Remove the caps and lowerfilters won't help you, it is a software based only

  You should look for a new CD/DVD drive. As a result, you can ask a service provider authorized in your country. They can offer you a compatible player. :)

  See you soon
