• Satellite Pro A200 failing to connect with iphone via wifi hotspot

  My apologies if I get some of the jargon wrong, but I'm pretty useless when you want IT emits.

  I have a Satellite Pro A200 and had problems connecting to various wifi connections.
  The computer could see the wifi connection and connect to it, but I wasn't able to connect to the internet.

  The question of the Office was arranged by our IT support guy (security settings on the new router we too complex for my PC or something like that), but he has not been able to solve the problem of not being able to connect to my iphone to use the 'hotspot' via the wifi function.

  Someone there knows a way to solve this, or is it a simple fact of the laptop is too old and really need to update?

  Thanks for any help that anyone is able to give.

  > Someone know a way to fix this or is it a simple fact of the laptop is too old and really need to update?

  This isn't a question of the age of the laptop
  As far as I know not that support all mobile operators
  You should first ask your mobile operator if you can use the tethering service.

  If this would be supported in my mobile operator, then connect the iphone to the laptop first
  So that you have two options: you can use the BT connection (in this case check if computer laptop also supports BT) or via a USB cable that came with the iPhone.

  (PS: as far I know to attach is supported by iOS3.0 and higher)

  After that the iphone was connected to the laptop, you must activate the tethering on iphone.
  Under settings of-> network, you should see the option internet tethering it must be enabled.
  Now you should be able to see that in the Network & Center sharing control panel.

• Satellite Pro A200 failed to start

  Hi guys,.

  Need for emergency assistance.
  Computer laptop Satellite Pro A200 tension regarding the Toshiba password logon, then the cursor freezes the upper left corner, it won't get into F8 configurations.
  This unit is 3 months old Satellite Pro A200 XP Pro.

  Used cell phone Sunday noon and set a system restore before installing a few applications. I can get to the Bios.
  I also used the disc of recovery as a last resort. I'm on vacation a week today and if all goes well with the laptop.

  You said you used the recovery CD? Well, I guess that you were not able to boot from them. Or I m wrong?

  Usually, you should try to boot from the CD bootable recovery CD, Win XP/Vista CD or CD of Linux. This could allows to check if a hardware problem exists.

  If you want to boot from the CD, I would recommend pressing the C key immediately after starting the laptop. This should allow booting from the CD/DVD drive.
  However, you can also try the F12 key. This allows the Boot Manager where you could choose the STRANGE.

  Good bye

• Satellite Pro A200 - Supervisor Password Setup Utility fails

  Hello

  I own a Satellite Pro A200-PSAE7E and a license to retail for Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit Edition (with SP1) is installed.

  Before installing Vista, I have updated the BIOS to the latest version available on the Toshiba site (http://it.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/vista_drivers.jsp?service=IT).
  BIOS version is now 2.20 - WIN32

  After the installation of the operating system, I started to install different drivers and utilities to download them from the Toshiba site.

  When I try to install the "utility supervisor password" Setup fails with a box of message that says "serial number is not valid.
  Same problem with a different Installer: "utility of Support Flash Cards.

  Someone knows how to solve this problem and what serial number is not valid?

  Thanks in advance,

  Hello Hana

  If someone has to take care of the warning, it's Microsoft. They offer something new and they know with certainty that he could have different negative influence on the operating system running well.

  Toshiba may just try to react and change has tools and utilities, but it's not easy. you will see that soon or later Toshiba will offer updates for all non-working stuff. The same is with WXP SP2.

  By the way: interesting Toshiba on Vista SP1 - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB84026M0000R01.htm article

• Satellite Pro A200: RIS installation fails - BSOD

  Hello

  Someone has already tried to use RIS for laptops Satellite Pro A200 ETA-1 image. I'm getting a BSOD which I think is due to a bad driver (downloaded from the Toshiba site).

  Also, can someone tell me where I can find a telephone number for technical support (UK), they seem reluctant to make available on their web site.

  Concerning
  Paul

  Hello

  satellite Pro A200 has the controller Intel AHCI-build. It is not included in Windows XP. You will get a bluescreen 0x0000007B proving that XP cannot identify the controller and has no driver for it.
  Here is a brief description of how add that driver to your RIS installation:

  1 copy all the single files from the Storage Manager Intel ICH - 8 M 32 - Bit floppy in your directory$ $oem $ \Textmode.
  If this directory exists you must change your txtsetup.oem file and add/extract the AHCI driver of the file txtsetup.oem of the F6 floppy in it (do not overwrite the txtsetup.oem file in this case!).
  If this directory does not exist, you can use the supplied txtsetup.oem file numodified.
  Download the floppy F6 Storage Manager here: http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/stormng-20070827133046.zip

  2. change your Winnt.sif file (or what you named your answer file) and add or change the following sections:

  [MassStorageDrivers]
  "Intel(r) 82801HEM/HBM SATA AHCI Controller (Mobile ICH8M-E/M)" = oem

  [OEMBootFiles]
  iaAhci.cat
  iaAhci.inf
  iastor.cat
  iastor.inf
  iastor.sys
  License.txt
  Readme.txt
  Txtsetup.OEM

• XP installation LAUGH on 32 Satellite Pro A200 laptop via computer

  Hello

  Can anyone help? I try to install 32 laptops (Satellite Pro A200) through Services of Installation Windows 2003 Server remotely. I had problems with network cards and now have these working by adding pilots in a $OEM$, $1, drivers, network card and record the thought that it might be easy to use the same solution to install the drivers for the SATA controller. How wrong could I be! I'm now pulling my hair out. The machines have the drivers installed in the same way ($ $OEM$ etc.) in a directory marked sata. I used the drivers from the Intel - extracts on floppy disk and copied from there site. Whenever I try to recreate the image, I get the same error "Windows does not detect hard drives" and it drives me crazy! I edited risstnrd.sif, textsetup.oem etc etc nothing works.

  I found a link on the German Toshiba site to download the drivers in this situation, but the link is quite slow, I tried to download these drivers now three different places (3 different accounts of ADSL) and each begins at about 36 k per second then decreases until bytes per second and then fails. (It's only a 21 MB file!)

  If someone managed to deploy these laptops via RIS? If so can you please let me know how you got it done and what drivers you used?

  Thank you very much

  Hello Mark

  I think LAUGH installation complicated theme and I'm really skeptical anyone will be able to help you. If you have time, try using the advanced search and check the RIS results as search terms.

  Otherwise, you can create your own recovery DVDs and use it for the installation of the OS. For the recovery procedure, you need 20 minutes.

• Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE4E) failure hard disk

  Hello

  My computer is Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE4E) purchased Oct 2007, running Vista 32 bit. He was always a bit skittish and prone to crashing. The first time I ever did a Windows Update it projected blue, so I restored and never updated since.

  The other day it started to emit beeps during startup, and while I could then get into, I think that the hard drive has failed, because now it runs very slow and crashes.

  Think the forum that this laptop could never be made to be stable and reliable?

  The hard drive is hard to change? I do it myself.

  There the drive hard replacement somewhere online instructions?

  Should what model of hard drive I install?

  Thank you

  RAID

  Hello

  Replacing the HARD drive is not difficult.
  HARD drive Bay must be placed at the bottom of the unit.
  You should see the drive Bay HARD fixed with a screw cover.
  Remove the screws and you will see the HARD drive

  To remove the HARD drive, remove the connectors

  But note; Be always careful and don't use force!

• No AHCI in the BIOS in Satellite Pro A200

  I just installed an ssd and would like to change the bios to ahci utility but it is not an area that I am able to do this. the computer is a Toshiba Satellite Pro A200 (psfa1a-003002).

  I have to update the BIOS? Where can I get the update and how can I update?

  As I know the BIOS update does not offer some additional options. Please check the settings of the BIOS again. In the BIOS options there SATA advanced option and there you can change between compatibility and AHCI mode.

  I have it on my P200. It is almost identical machine but 17 and your model 15.

• Where to find info on the Satellite Pro A200 PSAF0A

  I have an A200 Satellite (Pro), number PSAF0A - 03M 019 and so far have NOT had the chance to get the info on the site of Toshiba on this machine, it seems lost as Toshiba is concerned.

  When you use the menu support it rejects serial number or part of the bottom of the machine and there is NO option for the part number in the drop-down list.

  I don't have drivers that I've sorted myself but, I would like to know what BIOS version it is supposed to take, he had originally version 1.20 but my client upgraded to 5.20 and there is no setting in the BIOS to enable the AHCI.

  All I want to do is find some info on this machine, but I didn't do anything but run into dead ends with so-called support Toshiba. Any help I can get would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  > I don't need drivers, I sorted it myself, but I would like to know what BIOS version it is supposed to take.

  The newest BIOS is on the page of the Toshiba driver so take a look here
  But no one version of BIOS for Satellite Pro A200 or other A200 series contain the AHCI / compatible mode.
  The controller is still on AHCI. This can be on that other series laptop.

• Operating system to load BIOS for Satellite Pro A200

  Hello

  I have a PSAE4E - 03300WEN Satellite Pro A200 with V5.30 BIOS and Windows 7 SP1 32 bit.
  I improved the T2330 CPU to T8100 and thought to update the BIOS for increased functionality.
  But in the Toshiba download page, I get the following 3 options:

  2.60 - WIN32 this Bios is only compatible for portable computers with Windows Vista! (32-bit only!)
  2.60 - WIN64 this Bios is only compatible for portable computers with Windows Vista! (64-bit only!)
  5, 60 - WIN this Bios is NOT compatible for notebook computers equipped with Windows Vista!

  And the question is...
  What about Windows 7? I should stick to V5.30 or go to a newer version? :-/

  See you soon!

  > I improved the T2330 CPU to T8100 and thought to update the BIOS for increased functionality.

  First of all laptop manufacturers (any manufacturer it is) don t support CPU updates.
  Of course, you can replace the CPU but it's your own risk.

  But what I mean is that updates of BIOS don't provide additional functionality or improves which would increase the functionality after upgrade CPU and this means that the BIOS update is not necessary to obtain better performance even after upgrade CPU.

  However, certain phrases on your BIOS question:
  5.60 BIOS seems to be released for portable computers running Win XP:

  Other versions of BIOS (v2.60 32-bit and 64-bit) are released for Vista systems I guess that this version should be compatible with Win 7 since its more similar to Vista to Win XP

  However, you changed the processor and consequently the hardware configuration is different now, I can't say for sure if the BIOS update would be the best option in this case

• Matte screen disappeared on Satellite Pro A200

  I have a Satellite Pro A200 which works fine on an external monitor, but is very dull on the laptop monitor.
  Anyone knows if it's backlit and if the lights are replaceable, or do I need a new screen?

  FN + F5/F6 does nothing. Correct brightness with the software works on the external monitor, but not on the laptop.

  Thank you

  RickC

  > Is - anyone knows if it's backlit and if the lights are replaceable, or do I need a new screen?

  It could be a FL. inverter problem In the worst cases the problem internal display, but at this point, I suppose that it s inverter malfunction only an FL.

  Recommend trying to replace the FL inverter first, since this part is much less expensive than a screen.

  I assume you are using the 64-bit version, right?

• Satellite Pro A200 - hard drive has lost half it's memory

  I have a toshiba Satellite Pro A200 on Vista. Vista came preloaded and I not all disks for it. I got it from the new (Sept 2007). The hard disk is divided into units. Recently my C drive has filled competely and I now no space left (went 55gigs) I store some data in this drive. All my multimedia elements (music, photos, and other files) is in my E drive. I have to run C Cleaner whenever I start in order to have enough space for the operation of the computer. I also remove all but the last restore point in order to function.

  I am at my wits end and think I must have a virus or something. Is there a way to restore the computer to the 'new '? I have all my files backed up on an external hard drive, so I don't mind from scratch. Not keeping in mind I have no install discs as Vista came preloaded.

  Can anyone help? Please, I beg you!

  Hello

  If you don't have a recovery disk, you can order from Toshiba for the money. Otherwise, you can get copy of Windows and installed with the drivers of Toshiba (http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp)
  Then, you mentioned that hard drive has lost half it's memory, tell you if it was ok before but not available? Please check disk management, utility of the Panel. What is shown here?

• Satellite Pro A200 - shows only 3 GB instead of 4 GB of RAM

  Hello

  2 years ago I had a Satellite Pro A200 as a professional laptop and it works with XP SP2, later with SP3. With 2 GB, it shows 2 GB memory in Windows - and I know it's a Radeon 7500 with 256 MB memory graphics individual, and there is no shared memory.

  I upgraded to 4 GB, but Windows shows exactly 3 GB. BIOS shows 4 GB and ATI system monitor shows 4 GB. I know that 4 GB is not possible under XP 32-bit, only on Windows 2003 R2 32 bit or Vista - but on desktop systems, I've seen values between 3.3 and 3.7 GB.

  So, where's the memory? It looks like a bug - the chips of memory have two 2 GB I checked this. Because it's a company laptop I can not just switch to 64-bit XP :-(

  There's no option in the BIOS - first I thought that it is the graphics card, but mine has independent graphics with own memory so that the computer comes up with MB 2048 or 4096 after the upgrade.

  Shared memory would show about 1900 MB of RAM for the operating system as my private EEEpc.

  Hi shadowmaster_1,

  > I know that 4 GB is not possible under XP 32 bit
  Then why do you ask this question here if you already know? Moreover, it s not a limitation in XP, it s a material limitation on all 32-bit systems

  > only on Windows 2003 R2 32 bit or Vista
  And who says that Windows 2003 or Vista can use 4 GB? Okay, there's an update for Vista where 4 GB correct displayed in system properties, but that doesn't make no difference. Vista 32 bit peut t use all of 4GB, it s only cosmetic improvements! ;)

  > So where is memory?
  Memory is installed on your computer, but can t be used complelty with a 32 bit OS.

  At the end of the story: If you want to use 4 GB, you need to install a 64 bit OS. On all the 32 bit OS, you can use only upward to ~3.2GB RAM!

• How to restore settings orginal Satellite Pro A200?

  Hiya people

  I'm new to this thing, but if anyone can help me with my problem, I would be very grateful.
  I have a satellite pro A200 which is about 2.5 years and is now running really slow and I was just wondering if it can be restored to its original default? But isn't any recovery disk that I saw on the web that if you hold the zero button while turning on the computer you get the recovery of HARD drive, but for some reason page any, that this does not happen, I also tried several thing but no seams to work.

  If anyone out there can help me I would be very grateful

  Thank you

  What you have found on the web is not relevant for all models of Toshiba laptops.
  I can't say with certainty, but most A200 notebook recovery DVDs has been in the area.

  Anyway, first tell us the exact laptop model name and model number.
