  Hello

  I'm a newbie, which has probably asked bin before so if You ' l excuse me, I have a satellite pro A300 - 1 h 2.

  I got the volume of unmountable boot blue screen, then tried to adapt to a new samsung drive. I put in my windows disc it will load all the drivers, then says that there is no hard drive?
  In the bios, it recognizes it?

  Thanks if anyone can help

  Hello

  The problem is that your laptop supports the SATA HDD controller but the system OS does not contain the SATA drivers
  You can assign in the compatible SATA mode BIOS.
  This allows you to install the operating system without installation of the SATA drivers.

• 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

• Satellite L670 - after Win 8 upgrade WIFI does not work properly

  Afteer upgrade to Win 8, the WiFi of my Satellite L670-128 has stopped working properly.

  The connection only works some time, usually only a few seconds before the connection is lost.
  After a few seconds or minutes the connection is restored, just soon to be lost again.

  Cannot download large files or even to see larger photos on normal web pages. Is there any Win8 driver for Broadcom coming 802.11n network card, or should I throw one 2.5 year old computer in the trash?

  Buy a usb-wlan card is not an option, as wireless mice is already "permanently" reserving one of the three usb ports and wlan card it would be just to the left...

  To my knowledge this L670 series isn t Win 8 taken in charge and this means that there is no special Win 8 drivers for this device, so I put t think you will find an another Win 8 driver for this WLan card.

  But do you really want to throw this laptop in the trash just because the wifi does not work properly running Win 8?
  The device was working properly under Win 7?

  I would recommend running a few Wlan test.
  For example; Disable wireless encryption on your router and Wifi connectivity with the open network do that just for testing purposes, perhaps you will need to change the type of encryption to test.

• Satellite Pro L20 - recovery utility hangs and does not complete

  Hello.

  I've been running my L20 Pro Satellite for two years now, quite happy. Unfortunately, in the last 3 months, he began to misbehave. The startup time stretched to 5-10 minutes by that I mean time spent in "black" screen between the initials XP boot logo and the bright blue splash screen Windows. Playing sound/media crackled and stuttered badly through the loudspeaker. So, being reasonable technical, I've read various articles forum tried MSCONFIG tweaks here and there, removed all viruses etc... Nothing helps.

  I began to suspect a HARD drive problem. CHKDSK has not shown any errors. I finally resolved to back up my data and attempt a complete recovery. (Virgin!)

  Unfortunately, this is going to plan. medium 90% up to the end of the NVA Toshiba Recovery Utility 1.0.1.0 I think, started making subtle beeps and stopped on the 'X:\03596002 '. File of the GHS. The Green HARD-drive activity light has renounced his reassuring twinkling. Nothing.

  Any suggestions tips out there? I am currently in the State where he can not start (no NTLDR found).

  Help.

  Thank you.

• Satellite Pro A300D - reinstalled XP - now its does not work

  Recently, I had a virus on my laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro A300D-14O, which meant that I had to take it to get reinstalled Windows.
  This tech guy who I gave it to a do.

  However, now, the sound does not seem to work properly.
  The volume on the laptop wheel itself does nothing.
  I tried to open Control Panel to check the sounds and audio devices, but I could not change anything in the boxes.

  I tried to download a driver from toshiba Web site was updated, but I thought that it could not find the device driver support.

  Can anyone help?

  Hello

  You must install the Win XP SP3!
  This package must be installed BEFORE installing the audio driver.

  Install SP3
  Then remove the audio driver (already installed) system
  Go to Device Manager and remove the sound chip of the list of devices
  Restart the device
  Now reinstall the sound card driver.

  Should work as it worked in my case as well

• Re: Satellite Pro A100 PSAA3E: after XP installation does not work

  Hello

  I recently bought a psaa3e Satellite Pro A100.
  I formatted and installed Win XP. Everything works except the sound.
  In Device Manager its shows a PCI device problem.

  I think I need the pci to install before my sound card is recognized.
  I could be wrong and often am installed all drivers I could find on this site for my laptop.
  Any suggestions please, its driving me crazy.

  brgds

  The solution is simple.
  After installing Xp, you must install all the service packs. SP2 is important.
  In addition, you will need to upgrade the XP to the last State. All fixes and patches must be installed also.
  The * KB888111 * and * KB835221 hotfix * must be installed before installing the audio driver.

  After installing the hotfix, restart the computer, and then reinstall the audio driver!

  Good luck

• Satellite Pro A60: TV S-VHS on does not work

  I have a Satellite Pro a60 and I'm pulling out my S-VHS to function... This does not work very well.

  I connected all the cables right and right click on the desktop, again choose preferences, then on Preferences, but I can't find anything on the transmission of the video signal.

  I have not though as the configuration standard of Toshiba, but that shouldn't matter. I'm running WinXP SE, but the drivers for my card ATI is about two years old and I can not find a suitable one anywhere, this is the problem, or should I program utility ATI?

  Best regards!

  Hello

  You should also check the TV settings. You must choose the right channel.
  As in the previous announcement suggested, you can change the display device using the FN + F9 key combination.
  If you want to play the DVD with the WinDVD player for example if you first need to change the output of the TV and then start the WinDVD.

• Satellite Pro L300-1FL - WLAN network adapter does not exist

  Model: Satellite Pro L300-1FL (PSLB9E)
  Operating system: XP Pro SP2
  Wireless card: PA3616u-1mpc (atheros AR5007)

  the laptop came with pre-installed vista, everything worked very well (including wireless), although a little slowly, but decided to downgrade to xp. integrated SATA drivers into my xp with nlite installation disc. XP installed fine. visited the toshiba support site and downloaded all the drivers for xp and install.

  Despite the installation of the wireless driver there is still no present in the wireless network card device driver. It is an "unknown" device listed, which I think is the wireless card.

  at first I was not sure what card appeared so systematically installed that all options of wlan of the toshiba download page [intel/atheros/realtek], none has worked. little more digging autour and discovery was a then reinstalled atheros atheros wlan client on the toshiba site. still did not work. found a update atheros ar5007 driver installed, still no joy.

  forward wireless switch is on [the orange light] and has been throughout the process. have you tried enabling / disabling fn + F8, which doesn't do anything.

  I think I read somewhere (having read much too many post on this over the last few days!) that update the BIOS to version 2.4 can solve the problem. However the version offered for my model by the toshiba page BIOS update is 2.1 (which I've updated when you install all drivers in xp) and I'm not that eager to update the BIOS to a version that is not supported by toshiba, because I have no idea how fix an incorrect BIOS prevents starting the computer.

  When you look at the BIOS option "wake we wireless" is grayed out and not selectable. There is no other network without wire/related parameters. This might infer that the BIOS does not recognize the card wireless for some reason any. whereas he should have before, I started to lose its time, as worked it fine under vista wireless. so I think that upgrading the BIOS might have broken, although I can't be sure that I've updated the BIOS until I realize that the without wire did not work under XP, so it could have been broken before the BIOS update. Does this sound plausible? also, I have no idea how if is take to solve this - you can downgrade the BIOS?

  any help greatly appreciated - have been pulling on my hair for 2 days now and there is only so much googling, you can do before find yourself you constantly re - visiting the same sites over and over again!

  Thank you

  worried that he may have been conflict for different drivers wlan I had initially installed, so have done a complete re - format and re-installation of xp. Install the drivers, including the wlan driver atheros. but still no adapter wlan in Device Manager.

  the unknown device in the other section of the Device Manager is listed as an ethernet controller; However glancing upward from the PCI/VEN # (C & DEV_001C 168) on the basis of data from the provider PCI identifies that this is indeed the atheros card.

  This means that it is not a hardware/BIOS problem as I previously suspected. XP can 'see' the device, but for some reason, the driver won't work. Hmm

  someone at - it had a similar problem? is it just a matter of finding the "correct" driver

  Thank you

• Satellite Pro S500-139 - FN + F9 key does not have to turn off the touchpad

  Hello

  I use a Satellite Pro S500-139 and am having problems with my F9 key. When I tap my palm touches the mouse and send the cursor somewhere else on the page. I reinstalled the ALPS pointing device and now have access to the Advanced setting that I was not able to get.

  Although I can set the sensitivity etc. I would really be able to use the shortcut to disable the mouse momentarily while typing. My keyboard shows that, if I press fn and F9 the i should be able to disable the mouse but the function does not work. F9 all other functions seem to work.

  Do you know if there is a solution to this?

  I am running windows 7 pro 32-bit service pack 1.

  What you can try is to reinstall extra package from Toshiba.

• Satellite A305-S6858 win XP video driver does not

  I recently bought a Satellite A305-S6858 in the States and I went down the Edition Vista Home premium preinstalled
  for Win XP 32 sp 3. I had several problems to lift the computer up and running. After reading several posts
  on various forums, I managed to install the OS, but I still cannot use the Intel video driver.
  After the installation of those available on the toshiba site I still have in the Device Manager under the node for the video card
  2 entries for 965 Chipset Mobile with an exclamation point.
  I recently discovered that not having is not the video driver installed the operating system does not allow Stanby and Hibernate power options.
  If someone has stumbled in the same issue?
  Thank you

  You must install the basic drivers first.

  Try to install the driver for the Chipset Intel first, then the display driver.

• Satellite Pro U400 - sound of the wheel does not work anymore

  The wheel of sound control in my Satellite Pro U400 works not properly since last month.

  Now, I have to use the volume bar in Vista to adjust properly. When I try to lower the volume by turning the wheel, as I did before, he constantly increases the volume after reducing to a few percent. If I flip it is very very slow, sometimes it decreases the volume a little, but other times it increases. Also when I'm in a word processor, turn the wheel to the right input 'c' character ' on the screen.
  There is no problem when I try to increase the volume, it does its job.

  Do you think it is related to hardware or can it be a problem of driver or something. Is there a solution?

  Thank you

• Satellite Pro L10 - FN + F5 view command does not work

  When I attach my Satellite Pro to an external CRT, LCD monitor or projector, I get the same problem each end every time.

  the Fn + F key to toggle the display of control does not work.

  When I start the laptop with the attached external display device, everything is fine, and the display is exclusively channeled in the external display. but as soon as windows has started, the display switches to the screen of the laptop, and there is no way to make it back.

  y at - it an update for this problem, or another solution I know not?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Seems to be a simple software problem.
  I put t know how long you OS runs on the laptop, but maybe some files registry entries are corrupted and therefore the FN key does not work as it should.

• Satellite Pro L20-212 - USB 2.0 does not work

  Hello

  I own a * Satellite Pro L20-212 *, * Windows XP (SP2) is installed, but USB2.0 does not work *. I see nothing on USB 2.0 in the Devicemanager and the speed of the USB 2.0 devices attached is at the level of the USB 1.1.

  I don't know what information is needed to help me with this problem as it should normally work on my laptop (and I know that the laptop has USB 2.0 ports).

  What I have to install a special driver to use USB2.0 or is there any software on my laptop that I need to activate?

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  Did you install the image on the Toshiba Recovery CD? This image contains the Windows operating system, Toshiba drivers and additional utilities. After installation, everything should work fine, and also the USB ports should work also.

  The USP ports, you can find in Device Manager in the serial BUS controller universal section. Open the tree and check if there is some yellow exclamation points.
  Then try to remove the Device Manager, the controllers and the USB hub and restart the laptop. After restarting again the OS should recognize USB controllers deleted again.

  I hope that this accelerated procedure will help you.

  Greetings
