• Satellite Pro A200-16YT - update wireless adapter card for 802.11n

  Satellite Pro A200-16YT (PSAE1E) with Windows XP Professional SP3 from the East.
  I tried to increase my existing 54 Mbps wireless network speed by replacing the Atheros AR5007-EG existing with 802.11n 802.11a/b/g more quick adapter.

  The Atheros driver is v9.2.0.439 (08/04/2011) it's later. I tried to install an Azurewave AR5BXB72 (Atheros AR5008) as a substitute, but without success. As well as trying the standard Windows wireless configuration, I used the Atheros Client Utility (ACU) which confirms that the card and the driver are installed and activated, but the radio does not, so no there is no association/connection to the wireless network!

  Reinstall the original AR5007 works without any problem. If someone experienced similar problems or can offer a solution, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

  Hello

  Not sure about this Wlan card but I read in the forum that some people had similar problems, allowing the new card Wlan.

  Check this thread for example:

  It seems that the problem is related to the assignment of the WLan card pins.

• The mouse no longer works on Satellite Pro A200-1F9 (on Windows and Linux)

  Hello. Suddenly, my USB mouse doesn't work on my satellite pro A200-1F9 laptop. I had this same problem on my Linux (Ubuntu Feisty) for the last week or two, but today was the first time that the mouse no longer works in Windows. Ideas for what's gone wrong? (If I boot Linux with the attached mouse, I get an error message when loading upward.) The mouse does not work it is logged at startup or I plug it later).

  Under Windows and Linux, the laptop still recognizes my external HD which also has a USB connection...

  Thanks, Shoko.

  In my opinion, you should test the USB feature. If you are 100% sure that the USB ports are working well check your mouse or try to use the other.

  Laptop mouse pad still works?

• Satellite Pro A300 PSAGDA-02000R CPU and graphics chipset mismatch

  can someone help me with the specifications of this laptop.

  When I look at the official brochure of toshiba for this product, he mentions that the Chipset of the CPU

  "Mobile Intel 965 PM Express Chipset.

  but the second video card says

  "Intel Graphics Media Accelerator GM45.

  Which is true, because what I read on the site of intel GMA X 3100 is used on the mobile 965 PM Express Chipset.

  Any help will be much appreciated.

  To be honest, this unit is not known to me, but I know that some other Satellite Pro A300 supports other chipsets.
  For example:

  SATELLITE PRO A300 PSAJ1E-005008BT supports the Intel GM965 chipset and graphics chip Intel GM965
  SATELLITE PRO A300 PSAJ5E - 001001GR is supported by the chipset Intel PM965 and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470
  SATELLITE PRO A300-1E7 PSAGDE-003003EN supports the Intel PM45 Express and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 Mobile Chipset
  SATELLITE PRO A300-1HF PSAG1E-00K00SIT supports Intel GM965 and Intel GM965 graphics chip as well.
  SATELLITE PRO A300-21 b PSAGDE-01S007A3 supports the Chipset Mobile Intel GM45 Express and ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470.

  As you can see there are many different laptops with hardware components completely different models
  I googled too, and it seems that the PSAGDA Satellite Pro A300-02000R supports the PM of Mobile Intel 965 Express chipset and graphics ATI Mobility Radion, HD 3650 with 512 MB + Intel Graphics Media Accelerator GM45.

• Satellite Pro A200 (PSAF4A) - HARD drive stops and the computer crashes

  Hello

  It's my first post in this forum, but certainly not my first issue

  I recently had to re - install Windows Vista on my laptop because I had an undetectable virus that attacked Windows and made him useless.
  Before that, I had many, many startup errors and windows crashes, but which were preventable or fixable. After the re - install, I noticed that windows stability was much better until recently.

  I have not changed the settings or anything what so ever on my computer laptop which could affect the performance somehow, but I have a new problem.

  If I have my computer running, performing tasks of base for a few hours I notice that performance and all of a sudden my computer completely stops responding.
  The disk shows no signs of life after this point, and his only solution is a "disruptive Shutdown.
  This appears in the reliability monitor and performance that all this, there is no input error, and nothing is done after.

  I also noticed if either windows defender or other my antivirus runs a system scan that my performance is reduced to the point where I can't run a simple task like opening an Explorer window. This also translates to total non-response. This never happened before a week ago and now it happens every time.

  These two started within the past few days and there is no clear reasoning behind it. My inactivity of the processor is always the same, no new processors added and no settings changed.

  This could be a problem with Windows, my HARD drive, my CPU or something worse?

  Is there a reason why is happening and is there a solution either of these problems?

  First of all, you reinstall Windows with the Toshiba recovery disc or disc of Microsoft?

  It's strange and not easy to say what's wrong, but in your case I would test the RAM and HARD drive.

  There are special tools to test the following:
  http://www.HitachiGST.com/HDD/support/download.htm#DFT
  http://Memtest86.com/

  On the two Web site, you can download a CD image. Burn it to a CD, start with him and then you can test parts.

  Good luck!

• Satellite Pro A200 PSAE7: Where to find the driver for Win XP ATI

  Hello

  Toshiba Satellite Pro A200 PSAE7, I bought and it is with Vista on early. I decided to upgrade (/ downgrade) it to XP, but there is problem with the driver for graphics (Radeon HD 2600 Series).

  I can't find anywhere ati drivers (in fact I found it on the site ati.amd.com, but on this forum that I read that Toshiba drivers are changed so that the Radeon is overheating) and I am wonderig if Vista that works under XP (I downloaded all the drivers but ati one)?

  .. and is possible to downgrade my Vista to XP Pro through Miscrosoft website (or something like that) or do I have to reinstall using my old copy (provided with the old Toshiba)?

  PS.
  Sory for my English

  PS2.
  Is it so important to install the drivers in good condition?

  What do you mean by; There is a problem with the driver ATI XO?

  The European driver Toshiba page provides all the necessary XP drivers and tools.
  The ATI GPU driver came out too!

  An important note; If you want to install XP on this Vista machine, you must update the BIOS to the XP compatible version!

  Regarding your question about the downgrade from Vista to XP Pro via Microsoft site;

  Short answer; No this is not possible!

• Seeing white on Satellite Pro A200

  The screen of my computer (Satellite Pro A200 - PSAE7) became white and will not normalize. This happens as soon as the boot. However, other processes are underway normally. Currently, I have to rely on an external monitor or LCD projector to allow me to continue my work.

  What could be wrong and what can do?

  Hey,.

  > Currently I have to rely on an external monitor or LCD projector to allow me to continue my work.
  This means that an external monitor works properly, no?

  Well, there are two possible reasons: either the internal LCD screen is defective or LCD cable but the graphics card and the software are ok if everything works on an external monitor.

  You see a picture if you move the internal screen a little? So, you can check if there is a bad connection. If you are familiar with the disassembly of the laptop, you can open Notepad and check the connection also.

  An alternative you can also ask a maintainer approved assistance. Disassembly of the laptop is not a problem for guys so just get in contact with them. ;)

• Additional SATA connector need for Satellite Pro A200

  Hello

  I own Satellite Pro A200 PC series laptop and I have room for additional hard drive. I don't have a different connector on the card but I see pins to add the connector.
  Same BIOS shows that there are two SATA ports. There is place for ssd 1.8 ". Anyone know what is the part No. This connector so that I can weld down another connector.

  Thanks in advance,

  Alen

  > I don't have a different connector on the card but I see pins to add the connector
  I assume you mean on the connector like this:

  [Pic 1 | http://www.newmodeus.com/dv9000/HPDV9000%20copy.jpg]
  [Photo 2 | http://www.newmodeus.com/dv9000/hd%20over%20dv9000%20caddy%20w%20arrows%20sml.jpg]

  In General if the second HARD drive Bay is equipped with a few pins where the connector could be connected, then you should be able to use additional HARD disk

  I think that the right connector can be ordered from Toshiba ASP or some online resellers of spare parts for laptop

• Satellite Pro A200-PSAE4E - what BIOS I need for the update and how?

  Please on A) the correct updated version needs to B) process

  (A) the machine came with Vista installed, but it has been ranked towards the bottom to XP works on Win2003/XP network.

  The current bios to V5.20 do update to 2.60 - win 32 (vista) or win 5.60

  (B) Toshiba FAQ - FAQ ref: TRO0000000b07 shows how to upgrade the bios unfortunately it does not list the satellite Pro A200 - then what is the procedure - thanks in advance.

  Hello!

  If you want to update the BIOS, you need version 5.60. Are the other version for Vista and 5,60 only one is for XP and if it s the right one for you.

  The BIOS update procedure is quite easy. The update is based on Windows, which means that you can update it on Windows. So to extract all files from zip archive and run the exe file. Then updated your BIOS.
  But before update you, close all programs running even your AntiVirus and firewall and connect the AC adapter.

  Good luck!

  Good bye

• Brightness, function keys, WinXP and Satellite Pro A200

  Hello

  I recently bought a Satellite Pro A200 (serial PSAE7E) with WIndows Vista and try to install Windows XP next.
  After hours of hunting for drivers (with moderate success) and try to install a XP in a privileged way (3rd partition main, 2nd is for Vista), I stopped.

  I am not able to get to work a function keys (keys, light, monitor, CPU frequency and wireless) XP. Under Vista, these keys only works when Toshiba Flash Cards application is running - when I turn this app, these keys are also unavailable (why?).

  I browsed a forum and found a few threads also wrote about this topics, update BIOS to version XP
  But I do not found answers to my questions:

  (* 1) * is a software (like FlashCards, but for XP) _Activer under XP system function keys? configuration: (Vista + XP + BIOS for Vista)

  (* 2) * if I install a BIOS XP version, what happens to my Vista system installed on my laptop? It stops stating, or function keys stop responding or even a different Components would be inaccessible?
  Someone has tested the configuration like this (Vista + XP + BIOS for XP)

  (* 3) * it is possible to Flash the BIOS to the version of Vista the XP version and still the version of Vista? (maybye I should Flash the BIOS before you start the system?)

  Currently I use the BIOS version 1.70 of Vista, Vista Toshiba Recovery DVD and XP SP2.

  Hi mate,

  long discussion, short answer:

  1. no it not there no software (no software officially released and taken in charge) that is available for XP on a Sat A200.

  2. your system will operate normally, only the behavior of the function keys on bios level will change. If you Flash the bios with the XP version that the function keys should be available under XP without any software.

  3 Yes, it s definitely possible to reflash the BIOS since many clients have machines with XP and want to use Vista (I never understand but hey..)

  I hope that every question has been answered.

  I will try to be very short with answers:

  2 this version of BIOS is available for days and it is possible that many people already tried. By the way: until Toshiba out something that is tested and verified.
