• Satellite Pro A300 can not find USB devices

  Hello forum,.

  We have a customer who bought a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300 with us, but he gets a strange mistake about it.
  It connects to a hub 5port Sandberg USB 2.0 to one of the usb ports, the pc detects the hub, but when it connects a /Memory stick to the hub, nothing happens.
  the hub and the memory stick works on other PCs.

  I hope someone can help.

  Best regards

  Hello

  What happens if you connect the memory stick directly without this USB hub?
  I also had a USB hub, but these hubs are a little complicated and delicate USB specification allows a certain power and according to the devices that connect, you need to use an active USB hub, that means with external power supply.

  But normally, Satellite Pro A300 should have enough USB ports if it of needed, I would recommend a USB hub with 2 or 3 maximum ports

  Hello

  If you have always installed the Vista version that was bundled with the laptop, you can create a new disc of recovery again.
  Just launch the Toshiba recovery disc creator and create a new one that s all the!

  In addition, you can reinstall Vista if you use HARD drive recovery option. Therefore, you need to go into the advanced boot menu (F8) and select Repair my computer. Some files are loaded and then you can choose the Toshiba Recovery option.
  But this is only possible on the preinstalled Vista version.

  In the worst cases, to order a new drive Toshiba Recovery directly:

• Is satellite P875-L32 - possible to add a second HDD?

  I have a Toshiba Satellite P875 - 32L (PSPLFE-0C700RGR) which has 2 HDD / a MSATA SSD slot I would use now.

  My question is if they are enabled, or can be activated in some way to add storage capacity or an SSD for example a Crucial M4 MSATA SSD 256 GB. I asked the hotline and they didn t know. I wrote to the Austrian support and they didn t write again now I m really worried.

  I bought the Satellite as a model for my audio class. I chose for its storage capacity and will send it back if the slots are disabled, but I won´t think I mean after all Toshibas slogan runs innovation... and a slot for the disabled is exactly the opposite of innovation.

  I n t have this model of laptop, but every model can be improved with second HDD/SSD if square and the port are available.
  On the lower part there is only a single large enough coverage. When you remove it, you should see RAM and HARD drive. If it is necessary to drive HARD vacuum with SATA connector you can put there second HARD drive.

  You shouldn't be worried about anything whatsoever. Some models are extensible and others not.

• Satellite Pro A300 - can't get sound to work

  Hello

  I have an A300 (PSAGDA-01D00R), which I am issues with sound.

  When I first received it, he had Vista business and the sound wasn't working, so I installed XP but sound still does not work. I then decided on installing Windows 7 and still can't seem to get the sound to work.

  I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers, with no joy.

  Anyone has any ideas, Im starting to think that it might be afflicted a hardware problem.

  Hi alytech,

  What it means exactly, you can get t the operation?
  The sound card is correctly listed in the Device Manager?
  Where did you download the driver exactly?

  You wrote that Vista has been installed when you get it. Maybe the sound was only cut, so you can use the FN + ESC key combination.
  Try to also load default settings in the BIOS and test it with external speakers, please.

• Can I add a second HARD Satellite A200 - 10 X drive?

  Can I add a second HDD of my A200 - 10 X?

  Remove second HDD downstairs and check if the SATA connector is there. If there is no SATA connector for the second update of HARD drive with the second HARD disk cannot be done.

• Re: How can I add a second internal hard drive to a Satellite Pro P200?

  I have a Satellite Pro P200 with a single internal hard drive. There is a second Bay in the computer of another internal hard drive, but I couldn't find any information about it. There is enough space for a 2.5 "SATA but I do not see a connector.

  I contacted Toshiba Dutch customer service who said that it was official policy not to provide any information on a second internal drive. They also said that they would not provide parts to make it possible.

  Can anyone provide more information?

  Hello!

  I think that if there is no connector you cannot add a second HDD.
  It of Nice to have a second Bay, but it's nothing without a connector.

  Good bye

  Hello

  You have installed Win 7 but you didn t install some tools that controls the FN keys!

  You need to install the support card Flash Utility and added value package!
  You can find that both page European driver Toshiba Satellite L500 download area!

  PS: I think you should also check the BIOS settings. Some BIOS contains an option to toggle the wifi.

  In addition, go to-> properties Device Manager card Wlan-> Advanced tab
  Here, you can activate Wlan card too!

• I can't open Firefox on my Satellite Pro A300

  Satellite Pro A300 - Windows XP - I downloaded Firefox, but when I click to open it I get the icon of the hourglass for a while but eventualy it disappears and nothing happens. I use IExplorer without any problem, but I want to use Firefox as my preferred browser.

  Can anyone suggest a solution please?

  Hello

  > I downloaded Firefox, but when I click to open it I get the icon of the hourglass for a while but eventualy it disappears and nothing happens.
  This means t t, you can launch the installation of Firefox or open Firefox as Internet Explorer?

  As writes Timox I think you should contact the Mozilla Firefox support. Who knows why the program doesn't start

  By the way, and what you can try:
  Download and install Firefox once again, it is perhaps only a corrupt file s and make sure that no firewall and AntiVirus is blocking the installation.

  Good luck! :)

• How can I check if the Satellite Pro A300-1 GR drivers are up to date

  On the Toshiba driver European page you will always find the number pilot s versions and you can compare it with the s version of the driver installed on your laptop.

  In addition the [Toshiba Tempro | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/generic/TEMPO_RELEASE/] application keep you abreast of software updates and the latest Toshiba driver as soon as they come out on the European driver Toshiba page.

  But just a hint; If your laptop works without problem, then I would not change anything in the operating system. I'm always that notice; never change a running system ;)

• Re: Satellite Pro A300-1EA: can I use faster and bigger HARD drive?

  So this may seem like a stupid question, but if I intend to spend of the installed 160 GB 5400 RPM HDD of the Satellite Pro A300 1EA to a 7200 RPM drive HARD (do not know the ability yet) and I was wondering how to make recovery disks (downgrade from Vista professional and XP Professional) coming with the work of the laptop with the HARD disk that does not part of factory as drives for my understanding restore the system...

  The size of the drive HARD replacement has something to do with the thing?
  If the replacement HARD drive is also 160 GB system see the difference? And even if it was smaller or larger the system see the difference?

  I have not even bought the laptop but will soon and it is a little urgent.

  Computer thanks Fellows ahead! :)

  * Oh... It seems that this question has already been answered... a little research has ever killed forum person huh... but if someone has vital information about the issue... Please let me know! :)*

  Hello

  I think that he should t be a problem with an upgrade to a faster and bigger HARD drive.
  But before you switch the HARD disk, you must create the Toshiba Recovery DVD using the Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator.
  After the recovery disk has been created, you can move the hard drives.

  Best regards
