• How to change videoram on Satellite Pro A120?

  Hello

  I own a Satellite Pro A120. The manual says that the A120 is abe to have a maximum of 128 MB videoram (shared memory). I have 512 MB internal memory.
  Now he does that less than 8 MB videoram.

  I can change it to e.g. 128/64? If so, how?
  I am not able to change it in the Bios (Version 3.40).

  Thanks in advance.

  From my experience, that is not possible you can not manually change the memory of graphics card everything is controlled by the software (graphics driver).
  This means that this driver assigns a certain amount of RAM main memory graphics so it s needed. If a higher graphics card memory is not required while the graphics driver will not assign memory to s shared graphics memory

  Once the LAN driver has been downloaded, you will need to decompress.

• How to remove the password of BIOS on Satellite Pro A120?

  I have a Satellite Pro with a system password, when I started, I asked Mr. password I was its power off for over a year now, because the number 9 key was stuck in position, so I couldn't even try to type a password.

  Two days ago, I've corrected the keyboard. Now the system will just to the point where it asks for a password but I don't know anymore, I tried more than 40 passwords I've used in my past.

  So I ve open. Removed the battery during the night. no use. I've read on this forum about the keydisk, parallel dongle. Don t have a parallel port, or floppy disk. I also read another post on this forum about a brand under the RAM that needs to be grounded and I found no such thing.

  can someone help me please? There must be a jumper on the motherboard as well.

  The system is a Toshiba Satellite Pro A120

  Hi Rob

  I know that you are so happy to pay for it. Friend of mine has paid 60 Euros for the removal of the BIOS password.
  Anyway, please believe me you can not do anything alone. Sascha is right when he wrote about the different ways for the removal of the password and your model has the worst. I mean it can't be deleted so easy.

  Your laptop uses a sort, I'll call him, code stimulus / response. Service must send a code specific to the seat and wait for the response code. If the code matches the code deleted challenge the BIOS password cvan.

  Thus, there is no way to be removed from your own.
  Sorry mate :(

• 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: Need all drivers and the easyguard for Win 7

  Hello!

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A120, that I bought in 2007 and I am very satisfied.
  It had Windows Vista professional, but I have recently installed Windows 7 and it is where my dilemmas has started.

  My touchpad is not working properly, its scrolling feature works, to be specified. I installed the latest driver for ALPS touch pad, but the problem remains.

  Then, when I checked the system, I noticed two devices listed and it says that there are no drivers installed for them. I can't know what devices are and where to find the drivers.
  They are here:
  1st: ACPI\TOS6208\2 & DABA3FF & 1 driver not installed!
  2nd: ACPI\TOS620A\2 & DABA3FF & 1 driver not installed!

  And my third problem is about the sets of Toshiba programs and public services.
  My laptop came with Toshiba Easyguard, with protection against theft and other programs of Toshiba, and now I've lost all. Is there a way I can get them?

  I must say that I have no intention to return in Windows Vista, if any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you all for your responses and help!

  Hello

  In my IMHO the additional features of touchpad and other devices don't work correctly because the installed drivers are not designed for Win 7 and are perhaps not fully compatible with Win 7.

  Who knows if drivers Win 7 would come out for series Sat A120 we will see
  At that time I didn t find Win 7 drivers specific for A120.

  But if there are some beta Windows 7 drivers on the US page:
  http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/home.jsp

  Maybe you are lucky and some drivers running on your A120.

• 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.

• 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
