• Satellite Pro A300 PSAJ1E: Touchpad not recognized using Win XP SP2

  Hi all

  I just got a Satellite Pro A300 PSAJ1E, which is preloaded with Vista. It is also comes with a 'product' XP SP2 recovery CD I had to use because of some software work with Vista compatibility issues.

  Unfortunately, everything works well except the Touchpad, which is not recognized by XP at all (without entries, error or not, in the Device Manager).
  The "Recovery" of XP CD installed the drivers of the Alps and the Toshiba Touchpad utility (for turning on and outside), so it seems that it is supposed to work.

  It is activated in the BIOS (which I have also flashed to the latest version, just in case) and is enabled in the software. I also rebuilt the laptop using the "Recovery" CD (the touchpad is not also recognized by starting on the CD "Recovery" which I guess uses WinPE).

  It does not work on Vista, so it shouldn't be a hardware problem.

  Someone at - it ideas?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hey Buddy

  Well in your case I would recommend going to the Device Manager and remove the touchpad in the list of devices.

  Then visit the European driver Toshiba page, choose your model of laptop, Win XP OS and download the driver for the Alps Electric and Synaptics touchpad.

  Install both drivers, reboot the laptop and check if your touchpad will work correctly.

  Good luck

• 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 A300 sleep and extended functions does not properly

  I have a new satellite Pro A300 PSAJ1E - 01E00VIT, and I find this problem:

  Sometimes (not always: maybe it depends on which program is running) in trying to put the computer to sleep or into hibernation, it does not stop, but only stop the monitor (Panel), while the fan goes on and the power light is green. Of course, a lot of energy consumption of battery!

  Then there is no other way to take off the computer by pressing the power button for a long time... but this is not correct!
  NB: my computer is always connected to a local network, and generally there are some browser windows open when I put it in stand-by mode.

  How can I fix?
  jomurray

  You must update the BIOS and must always close the programs and applications that ruin on the laptop before activating the standby mode or hibernation would be.

  I found this solution in this forum, and according to some people here it has solved similar problems

  The webcam can be used with programs like Skype communication where you can make a video call. Of course, there are other messengers or programs they use the webcam.

• Shutdown on Satellite Pro A300 problem

  I flashed the Bios with the latest version, did not help my problem.
  After stopping the machine down, the slot voltage stays on, even if the disks hard etc. are off.

  If you hold down the power button on this point, the machine turns off completely, then you can start again.

  Also, when the machine is turned on, the power button is strangely.
  Sometimes a single press stops the machine, sometimes it restarts. Sometimes, he won't do anything

  Someone at - it an idea of that which is the cause, now that an update of the bios did not fix.

  See you soon,.

  Hello

  Looks like you would define the notebook in Hibernate or standby mode setting and would not shut down the Satellite Pro A300.

  Please note that the closed button Vista default settings are set to sleep.
  If you want to change the settings go to:
  -Control Panel > Power Options > change Plan settings
  -Click on advanced settings
  -Expand power buttons and lid. Then Expand the menu button start and change of sleep at the stop.

  "If the laptop has been on standby mode it is possible happens that it wakes up automatically because of some options activated as alarm clock on keyboard ' and 'Battery critical WakeUp' or 'wake on LAN '.

  Good bye

• Satellite Pro A300 freezes when on the internet

  Satellite Pro A300 freezes when on the internet & the only way to turn it off is to take out the battery. Bought new Dec 2010 & is under warranty - suggestions?

  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.

• 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.

• Satellite Pro A300: No volume indicator displays on the screen

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro A300 with a volume knob. When you change the volume to use, it works (even if this does not work as the starting system which is really annoying, especially when you turn it on every day in a library) However there are usually no witnesses screen to show at what level the volume is at. Once, I saw a display flag which seemed to be apart Toshiba Hot Key Utility but it disappeared again after a reboot.

  It is really impossible to do not be able to see at what level the volume is such that you change. Can someone help me out here? Brands goes for anyone who can help me unravel so volume level start!

• Satellite Pro A300 - overheating

  Hello

  It's been a year and a half I got my Satellite Pro A300. A week ago, it started overheating very badly. Low CPU usage, it maintains its normal temperature of 55 - 60 c (given the weather was hot).
  However, if I try to do something heavy CPU, lets the temperature of 100 ° C in a few minutes and the laptop stops. The fan works, except that it does not seem to generate as usual, as a powerful airflow which made me think it was clogged. I disassembled the laptop, but I couldn't get to the cooling unit because of three cables from the motherboard to the plastic shell, who of the White T, shaped connectors for the life of me I couldn't get out, even a little bit. I cleaned up what I could with compressed air and a little dust was allowed, however, the fan/radiator wasn't blocked at all.

  After put back together there no significant difference.
  I am sure that it is a new phenomenon that I did turn the machine much warmer weather in the worst conditions with loads CPU near 100% without any problems. I checked all the settings, just in case something has mitigated the fan, but the public electricity of standby service is set to "Maximum Performance".

  I appreciate the ideas and help, even a few tips on how to disconnect the cables from the motherboard.
  Thanks in advance.

  I imagine that there is a lot of dust inside and maybe is time for professional cleaning. You can contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help. The guy he takes apart the whole notebook and remove all dust placed between the vents.

  In any case, try to use your laptop with power management balanced which will reduce the performance of the processor, but your laptop will have enough power for normal operations.

  In General, I think that your laptop must be properly cleaned.

• Satellite Pro A300 - nasal sound if the WIFI is enabled

  School, I work has recently bought some A300s, but when they turn them on, all sounds are stuttering.

  This is the jingle of Windows startup, the CD and DVD, and programs installed on the computer laptop itself. The only way I can stop the sound problems is by disabling the wireless lan. I tried to uninstall and reinstall, update the driver, replace the driver, but all without success. The school network is wireless so disable the wireless LAN cards long isn't really an option.

  Anyone got any ideas?

  Hey xarkaltos,

  It would be interesting to know what OS you are using. I have too many Satellite Pro A300 and I can t t notice nasal sound if the WIFI is enabled. My A300 works pretty well and doesn't make strange sounds.

  Maybe you have installed another OS, if you restore the OS from Toshiba by using the recovery disc or HARD drive recovery option.
  Otherwise, follow the instructions posted by Al - eX.
