• Satellite Pro A300 - for Windows 7 power management strategy

  Hi all

  I have the following on my Satellite Pro A300 problem:

  My laptop fan works continuously, which means almost always turn. I cleaned the entire cooling with compressed air, so it is not clean, no problem with that. The reason is that in browsers when Adobe Flash Player runs, it loads the CPU and the GPU, so that the fan trying to cool the system.

  Now I ask you, is there any solution to fix this? I mean even to reduce the GPU clock speed when I do not use the graphics intensive applications.

  I use Google Chrome as default browser and the Windows 7 OS 32 bit.

  Thank you in advance.

  Hey Buddy,

  If an application load the CPU and the GPU it s normal behavior that the fan rotates and probably on top level so it s high usage. So don t you worry because everything is normal. The fan protects the equipment from overheating.

  What you can do is updated Google Chrome and Flash Player. Also try to use the most recent version, they also contain security updates.

  Last but not least, you can change the cooling method in the power management Windows (change the power plan settings). If you have installed Toshiba Value added Package, you can choose between optimized battery and a maximum Performance. Select optimized battery and fan activity will be less.

• 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 access the installation of Vista hidden partition?

  AHOY!

  I have a Satellite Pro A300 PSAGDA 2000R

  It had Windows Vista installed when I got it, but after a while, had to reformat, so I did, (I want to reformat my computer every 6-12 months on average), it came only with XP disks even if he got a serial number for Vista on the underside of the laptop so I installed XP. That was about 2-3 reformats there now.

  However, so that finding drivers I've seen mention of a hidden partition to reinstall Vista (which I hope it is 64-bit) and tried to do this several times but unfortunately it does not work, I guess that maybe what XP installation I can accidentally deleted or something? (Thought they had in fact on some solid state memory which could not be written more or something.)

  * Is there a way I can access it, take another that won't cost a ridiculous amount (for example download) or a nice person enough to create an image to download on a site or something that I can download file sharing? *

  I have also a spare copy of Vista (and a bit of XP) on the drive, none of them will work?

  + Another thing which I am interested in is can I get any of the preview of Windows 8 OS that will run on this laptop? Apparently it improved performance on Vista and W7 would be convenient for running on a laptop, and I have also heard say it is possible to upgrade to the full version of the preview or W7 for a minimal cost and would probably be much cheaper than other methods if possible. +

  And I'm actually quite handy with computers, so don't be afraid to throw big words at me,

  (Tried the methods found on the manual on page 3-8 ([link: http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/computers/satellite/pro/a300/psagda-02000r/download?os=22]).)

  I have European A300 and I believe that the principle on the rest of the same models.
  A300 was offered with Vista preinstalled but without recovery disc Vista. Image that contains the operating system, drivers, tools and utilities for recovery has been saved on the HARD drive and with book factory owner was able to begin the installation of HARD drive recovery. It works with the factory only settings.

  With preinstalled Toshiba laptop recovery disk creator owners have been able to create the recovery disk that can be used if the disk HARD recovery doesn't work anymore.
  If you don t have access to this image saved on HARD drive recovery, you must use the recovery disc. If you don t have the disc that you have a problem. Recovery image can not be downloaded. All you can download are the unique rivers, tools and utilities that you can use if you install a clean version of the OS (operating system).
  On the European models, recovery image was recorded on the second partition of HARD drive in the folder called HDDrecovery.

  Anyway, A300 works with Win7 32 bit. I installed it on my machine and I m very happy with it.
  > Another thing which I am interested in is can I get any of the preview of Windows 8 OS that will run on this laptop?
  I put t know who should give you this overview, but the fact is that you get it from Toshiba. You should check if you can get it in another way.

  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:
  http://www.optimization-world.com/IMG/prod/3_5_mm_rca_audio.jpg

  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. :)

• Satellite Pro A10 - how to restore power management

  I'm running a little used by Satellite Pro A10 as a substitute for a sick office and trying to improve performance after the installation of some essential software.
  It seems you accidentally disable the Toshiba power management function - when I click the icon on the Toshiba Console there is no response.

  Power management seems to retain its previous setting, however, and I find myself with no control otherwise.

  Any advice on how to restore this function on the Console?

  You can also try to use the system restore utility to set the operating system to the point of time at the beginning!
  Maybe it will work

• Satellite Pro A300: How do I go back to XP, Vista Business

  I saw absolutely no instruction on how to do it. In other words, how downgrade to XP?
  The A300 came with recovery disc 1 and 2 (who say "Windows XP Professional").

  If I boot from disk 1, I get two options:

  b. computer to recover in "out of area" State.
  or
  b. erase everything on the hard drive.

  There is no possibility to change OS to winXP. What to do (b) before I can go back to XP?

  It should be easy to do. A few simple steps would be great.

  Thank you

  If the recovery disc says "Windows XP", then all you need to do is the boot CD and choose "out of the box. This will wipe the HARD drive and install XP.

  Remember that this will wipe Vista. If you want to go back to Vista, you must create Vista recovery discs first. Should be a "Create a Recovery disk" icon on the desktop under Vista.

• How to restore my Satellite Pro A300?

  I had to replace the hard drive on my laptop Satellite Pro A300. Before that, I did a complete backup of computer with Windows complete PC Backup. Now I want to restore all of the backup computer, but I have this problem:
  When the computer restarts I press F8 and select Repair my computer, and in the System Recovery Options, I click on the Windows complete PC Restore. Then, the window for the selection of available backups. When I click on the next button, I get the following message:
  «To restore your computer, Windows needs to format the drive running Windows recovery environment on.» Start your computer from a Windows or a recovery disc install disc to try again".

  I don't have a Windows installation disc. When I start my computer from the key to the rescue disk, and then press F8 in boot option advanced, I don't see you option to fix my computer.

  How to restore my computer anyone know?

  I don't know what is really happening in your computer, but it is a little difficult to restore without Windows installation disc. On another computer, you can download and install Acronis true image and activate it. Acronis, there is an option, the backup copy of Windows convert to Acronis backup. Convert you. Then, create a rescue bootable Acronis Disk support. Converted Acronis backup, you can place them on dvd disc discs or burn flash usb. Insert, Acronos boot media, navigate to the backup and restore. \

  It's a bit difficult to explain everything, but in your case, it is best to get copy of windows and do a clean install

• Satellite Pro A300-28R - how to enable virtualization in the BIOS?

  I tried to enable the setting of virtualization in the BIOS and the setting is disabled and I was unable to change the setting to activate. I have flashed the BIOS to the new version, and now how to enable virtualization has completely disappeared.
  The laptop model is Satellite Pro A300-28R with Windows 7 Professional and BIOS version 2.10.

  How do I enable virtualization setting so I can run Windows Virtual PC mode to run compatible programs XP?

  Hello

  Did you check the specifications of your laptop first?

  The fact is that the processor must support this virtualization and according to the Web of Toshiba site, your laptop is equipped with processor Core 2 Duo T5870.
  I checked this on the page of Intel CPU and virtualization isn't supported. That means t, you can use this feature!
