• Satellite Pro A300: How to create the recovery disk

  Hello
  I just bought a Satellite Pro A300 with Windows XP.
  I want to know how I can or if I need to create a recovery disk that will reset the machine to its original state.
  The information gives instuctions on how to proceed for the Vista machines, but not for XP.

  I know that I can recover from the hidden partition, but where this is not possible, I wish I could get CD or DVD.
  There is a recovery CD included product that says only: "MS Windows XP" so I guess that it does not include drivers or Toshiba Software?

  Any help appreciated,
  Thank you
  Mick

  Hello

  You have preinstalled software Toshiba TOSHIBA Recovery Disc Creator?

  Please check this box.
  Using the TOSHIBA Recovery Disc Creator you can create the recovery disk.

  But if your laptop was already pre-installed with Windows XP and then a Recovery CD or DVD must be included.

  Have you checked all of the items in the box?

• Satellite Pro A300: How to recover the Vista operating system

  My friend has a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300 it has a 4 GB of ram, but on Windows Xp shows only 3 GB
  I also want to put in place the back of the Vista, but I can't not insatall any operating system (only the Toshiba Xp dvd)
  (there is a HDD recovery folder on the C drive, I think it is the Vista that he owned before but a don't know how to install it)

  Ok. If the folder in HARD drive recovery then it should be possible to carry out a procedure for HARD drive recovery, remain on the second partition.

  First of all, start Notepad and press F8 immediately after that the laptop has been powered. Then choose the first option called fix my computer.
  A new window should open, and you should choose the last option called Toshiba HDD Recovery.
  Then follow the instructions on the screen.

  This should usually works if the folder of HARD disk recovery and partition has not changed or deleted.

  Check it out if it does not, you will need to order a Vista of Toshiba Recovery DVD:

• Satellite Pro A300 - how to install the webcam?

  I got my laptop via my uni so did amyn backup discs (especially not the webcam).

  Basically my laptop is a Trojan virus on my webcam, set it and I restarted my computer. It is then flashed up on reboot that I need to install my webcam but I don't have the disk and now I can't use my webcam! What should I do?

  PS I'm not a genius with computers so please be easy on me with the language.

  I have too many Satellite Pro A300 and it s not delivered with the Toshiba Recovery disk because you create such a floppy yourself. So start the Toshiba recovery disc creator, which is preinstalled on your laptop and you can create this disk. It contains a picture of the factory settings, and so you can restore the entire system every time.

• 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. :)

  Hello

  have you tried to update drivers Lan (wlan)? What browser do you use? I guess, the Internet explorer, try firefox or opera. Also, your computer may be infected with the virus, or blocked by the firewall. Have you installed software before it starts? Is this ok when you bought it? I ask you too, because you do not have a lot of information.
  It is especially the driver, software problem.

  Hello

  I need an advice. I just took a memory (Samsung) 1 GB of more old model Satellite A200 module and put it on my new model Satellite Pro A300. Here is the information about the SPD:

  _Original (which has been installed in the factory): _

  DIMM1: Kingston (2 GB DDR2-667 DDR2 SDRAM)

  According to the information provided was it a good or bad idea? I mean differences in the SPD and will this performance, stability, etc. ?

  Thanks a lot for your time!

  Hi xosman,

  According to the information that you have posted it seems that the other Satellite A200 module has the same specifications, so if your laptop works with this module it s no problem I think.

  Satellite A200 A300 using the same memory modules DDR2 so change the RAM is no problem.

• Satellite Pro A300 - How can I change the size of the partition?

  Hello
  My Satellite Pro A300 came with 2 different partitions, and I would like to change the size of the partitions (the data partition is too small).

  Which would affect the recovery tools? Is there proposed formulas?

  Thanks in advance,

  Andres

  What operating system do you use on your laptop?
  If you use Vista, this document could be useful for you:
  http://195.182.196.33/KB0/TSB7101OB0006R01.htm

  This should normally does not affect the recovery of HARD drive but make sure to burn the disc of recovery if you didn t it yet.

  If you have the recovery disk, you are on the safe side.

• Satellite Pro A300 - how to fix Storage Manager?

  I accidentally deleted Intel Matrix Storage Event Monitor from my list of startup., it's a good utility, since it will inform me on the hard drive problems.

  I tried to uninstall and then reinstall the package Intel Matrix Storage Manager (downloaded drivers from Toshiba Support), but I have not had any results, do not have this program at startup.

  Can you give any suggestions, how to completely uninstall this package, so that I could perform the new installation of the package?

• Satellite Pro A300-257 while flashing the BIOS

  Hello

  I have a dilemma. I recently installed windows 7 on my laptop of girlfriends who is a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300-257, everything went well until I tried to update the Bios. I followed all instructions on the toshiba site had to put the model number in to get good bios double checked and triple checked before running the program, but when I ran the system crashed to halfway through the closed system update and now it wont even boot lights are on cd player is ROAR a few stays on black screen.

  I read many forums and it seems im not the only one with this problem.
  I just got the phone to toshiba and they say im not covered because I does not you can call and go through it with them on the phone, even if at no time did he tell me to do that I followed the instructions of there Web site.
  I also confirmed with them that I used the correct bios but they say that they are unable to prove that and I can put in the wrong information that I did not.

  In my view, there is a program that will allow me to boot from the cd so I don't have to go out and buy a reader external floppy to Flash the bios, I think that his winflash. Unfortunately, all I can find is the executable program on there website which im guessing will not start work.
  Anyone know where I can find the prog to update the bios and the bios file so I can create a cd bootable to Flash the bios.

  Any help will be appreciated with gratitude

  Thank you very much

  Hi mate

  I m afraid there is no alternative to reflash the BIOS to the traditional version of BIOS who can start the BIOS updated using an external USB drive and the floppy disk.

  The European driver Toshiba page contains only the BIOS Win-based that can be updated when the windows operating system. The traditional BIOS is not available for download. Only authorized service partners have access to this version of BIOS and that's why I don t see any alternative as to get in touch with the guys and to ask for help.

• Satellite Pro A300 wrong interpret all THE CD/DVD

  Hello

  I need help!, I have a Satellite Pro A300 equipped with a multimode GSA - T50N (RT04), DVD player, but it does not work.

  The drive appears as DVD RW drive (e :))

  If I put a DVD or a CD player will not autorun and will, say something like 0 bytes free 645 MB (for example), when I right click on the drive icon and select Explorer, I get a message "prepare this blank disc.
  It doesn't matter what kind of media, I put in or even if its Blanck, formatted, a cd of music etc the size 0 bytes free of 645 (can be anything) is always different, but always appears the message "prepare this blank disc.

  How can I solve this that the laptop is totally useless without the player works correctly.

  Scott

  I had the same idea

  I recommend first of all remove all the system burning software.
  Go to Device Manager, and then remove the drive from CD/DVD to the list of devices. Then start the registry and go to completely remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters from the following registry key values:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  After that, restart the device and wait for the CD/DVD drive was recognized again
