• Satellite Pro A300 - how to get the sound on the TV with VGA cable?

  Hello world

  I have a real problem connecting my Satellite Pro A300 to my Samsung HDTV.
  The video works fine - I used a VGA connection on the laptop and the TV.

  The problem I have is healthy.
  I want the sound either also come from the TV. I tried a jack of 3.5 m from the headphone jack of the laptop to a red and white connection RCA audio on the TV, but it doesn't seem to work.

  Does anyone have any ideas or advice?
  I need of additional drivers, etc., or do some settings need to be changed etc etc.

  Hello

  Normally, to use the 3.5 mm jack plug in the headphones, you need an adapter cable.
  At one end, it has a 3.5 mm jack and the other side to connect red and white audio RCA connections.
  Here is an example of what I mean:

  I m using such an adapter without any problem. You n t need an additional driver, or something more. It's the same as if you were using a helmet. :)

• Satellite Pro A120: How can I identify the disk - bar codes?

  I had my hard drive stolen at work with all the things my company on... The person was taken, but the police want to show me its mine, everyone in my office has the same confidential files.

  My question is: among the labels of codes bars on my hard drive... is one that would connect to my computer?
  Or is there something that can be sound from my computer?

  The computer is a satellite pro A120

  Thanks in advance

  I must say that the previous user has the right idea. If you use the password to protect your operating system, it may be the best evidence for you.

• Satellite Pro A120: How do I remove the CD/DVD drive

  I have 2 main problems and doesn't seem to completely open the case.
  Does anyone know how to remove the dvd - rom?

  But my mainproblem is swith power Ribbon (blue) has come off the motherboard. But as I can't open completely the case im with tweezers for trying to recconect.

  Does not seem to want to go.
  Is there a clip into the connector on the motherboard or is it just push in? A picture or a diagram would be helpful.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  One question; Why are you doing this?
  I mean why you want to open the notebook?
  Always it is that Satellite Pro A120 is not an old notebook and I presume that the guarantee is valid.
  If you remove the lid of the laptop, you will lose the warranty!

  The removal of CD/DVD is very easy.
  Usually, it is fixed with a screw located at the bottom of the unit. You have to remove first, and then he should be able to take off from the STRANGE.

• 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 cannot start when the printer is connected

  Hi I have a brand new Toshiba Satellite Pro A120 but I'm having a very strange problem.

  I installed my printer - Epson Stylus Photo R300, but now the laptop will not start if the printer is on. When I turn it on the Toshiba screen comes ok, then the Windows XP screen comes with the black background when the blue bar to cross to load Windows but its all disappear and the laptop just hangs and will not!

  However, if you turn the printer off and turn the laptop it starts up fine!

  Its really the printer which is the cause as its only when I turned it on.

  It's never caused this problem with my old PC using Windows XP too.

  Any help with a resolution would be greatly appreicated.

  Thank you

  Adam.

  How to disconnect the printer during the boot process? ;)

• Satellite Pro A120: Need to update the BIOS after upgrade CPU

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A120 and I need to update the bios of a change in cpu cause.
  The laptop works very well, but for some reason any with the new processor fan runs always full.

  A lot, I searched but found nothing.
  The model number is PSAC1E-0QL04CG3 of ideas where I can find the bios?

  THX in advance,
  John

  Hello

  First of all: update BIOS doesn t help you.
  Why do you think that BIOS update should help reduce the activity of fan?

  I guess that your new processor is faster. Right?
  So it offers more performance and this leads to higher heat dissipation... so finally the CPU must be cooled and this can be done only if the cooling module would turn faster you agree with me?

  By the way: the update of the BIOS is on the page of the Toshiba UE driver. Since the satellite Pro A120 is very old series, you will need to search for drivers in area Archive (Type of product-> Archive)

• Satellite Pro A120 - fan run all the time

  OK, so this is a strange...

  I have a satellite Pro A120. It works with the fan on all the time and sometimes goes on a mayor go slowly (which I think can be reduced to overheating).

  Operating system is Ubuntu and I installed the tool of sensors that tell me about the minute the temperature is 100 degrees c and the next one is 16!

  I suspect that it is perhaps that the heat sink is full of fluff, but I can't find a guide step by step to dismantle the machine, clean it and put it back together again.

  Can anyone help with ideas or resources?

  Thank you very much

  Nathan

  Hello

  You do not need to disassemble the unit to clean the fans.
  You can use a jet of compressed air which helps to remove dust.
  I did it several times and it helped!

  Try it!

• Satellite Pro A120 - Maximum capacity of the HARD drive?

  HI - new here. I have a:

  Toshiba Satellite Pro A120
  Model PSAC1E-04H00VEN number

  It's less hard drive. I have a 160 GB spare hard drive but when I try to install this using the recovery disc, the operation simply sticks on the "Please wait..." message. ». The specification for the A120, I noted that it supports drives of 40 to 120 GB. Which is strictly true and so why can't I just install this 160 GB drive?

  Thank you.

  Hi Lapitup,

  Usually the 160 GB should be no problem because the laptop supports the SATA interface and there is no limit of ability so that you can install each HARD drive.

  Be interesting to know what HARD drive you have installed exactly and if you tested on another computer because the HARD drive itself could be the problem and not on the computer. If the disc is defective recovery disc can t be installed so that you get an error message.

• Satellite Pro A120: How to set a resolution of 1440 x 900 or 1680 x 1050 on external monitor

  Hello

  I'm considering buying an external to use with my Satellite Pro A120 monitor. The laptop has a Mobile Intel 945GM chipset and it doesn't seem as if I can choose the resolution that I would need a widescreen (1440 x 900 or 1680 x 1050), with its menu of graphic properties.

  Is it possible to put one of these resolutions so that I could use an external display, or is simply not an option?

  The drivers supplied with the monitor would be likely to help him?

  Hello Thom

  Unfortunately when you have factory settings you probably won't be able to use these resolutions. I put t know if it's because of preinstalled driver or limitation technique graphics card.

  You can try to install the driver from the manufacturer of the graphics card and see if it will work (Intel or ATI). Just testing everything.
