Satellite Pro A300D-140 - graphic question

Hi all

I wonder if someone can help me. I'm having a lot of problems with my new laptop at the moment, and I'm now about to re - format and reinstall Windows.
The question is this: when you browse the Web site with pictures or embedded videos, display struggles to scroll to the bottom and is very 'jerky' and slow. This happens in two & Firefox Internet Explorer.
Its not just web browsers that have the problem, Word, Excel etc. all I have this problem. I produce a lot of documents and sometimes necessary, scroll through them - and performance when you scroll is a joke!

I contacted ATI and they have washed their hands of this issue and refuse to do something.
I tried the latest drivers, the drivers supplied with the laptop, restored to the latest drivers, made an update of the BIOS, chipset update firmware, update driver processor etc... and nothing has worked! Have really no idea on how to move forward from this.

Any ideas / suggestions would be greatly appreciated - or if someone needs additional information, I'll check this thread.

I am running Windows XP Pro SP3

Thank you
Dan Smith

I don't know if my advice can help, but you have the problem with the operating system preinstalled Toshiba?

You tried the latest drivers from Toshiba Web site or other sites?

As far as I know that the Satellite Pro A300D has Vista as an operating system. If you need to reinstall the operating system from the Toshiba recovery disc. There are all pilots understand.

  • Satellite Pro A300D - what is the model number for the keyboard?

    My husband managed to dislodge a key on my keyboard CAP and broke the clip white scissors that holds up on... (don't ask me how)

    He spoke of the authorized service center here in Norway and they sent us replacement scissors tongs (actually they sent an old non-functional keyboard), but the clips are of a different design to those on my laptop.

    I was wondering if anyone has an idea of the model/serial number of the keyboard used in the Satellite Pro A300D-151 (PSAK9E) so I can get the correct replacement part.

    I really don't want to have to replace the entire keyboard when it's just 1 scissor clips which is broken... the laptop is only 5 months old.

    Here are some pictures of the scissors clamp in question and where it attaches to the keyboard (sorry for quality)

    Thank you

    notsure

    Hello

    Boyfriend sorry but it is not possible to exchange a few individual keys on a keyboard, so in this case, you must replace the full keyboard. But normally, it shouldn't be so difficult.
    Either you exchange the keyboard yourself or you sent the laptop to the authorized service provider.

    The model number for the keyboard is not known to me but contact your ASP! They can order all the parts of Toshiba and they should know the right part number.

    Good bye

  • 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

  • Satellite Pro A300D - driver for multimedia audio controller

    Hello

    I have Toshiba Satellite pro A300D and someday the built in mic, built into the camera and the speakers stopped working.

    When I checked the Device Manager, I saw that the driver for the multimedia controller wasn't working so I uninstalled and went on the toshiba site for the installation of the new driver.
    When I watched the drivers to my computer, they have everything except this driver!

    Is there anyone who knows were I can find it?
    I use the computer to work with the music and I'll record some people soon and I really need to work!

    Best regards

    Hermann

    Hi Hemmi,

    Interesting to know is which operating system you have.
    Can you post this information?

    Generally, all the drivers are placed on the Toshiba driver download page. There is an audio driver for normal output audio (speakers) and the webcam software. The latter you must also for micro because it s a part of webcam.

  • Satellite Pro A300D - missing Dolby Sound Room under WXP

    Hello

    I need help.
    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300D - 161 and it had Windows Vista but he crashed and installed Windows XP Professional.
    The problem is that when I got Vista sound was with Dolby Sound Room and it sounded very good.

    But now, it's offal as an old PC... maby you know a kind of drivers that can help to increase the sound of my laptop?

    I assume that you have the correct driver installed and also requires that you install official Toshiba support page.
    You must understand that this laptop is designed for Vista and better performance in any aspect that you'll probably Vista. This laptop model is also supported for WXP but of course the drivers and utilities and additional tools do not offer in so many different settings as a software designed for Vista.
    Have you tried to change the sound quality using equalizer in players you use?

    I have the Satellite A300 - 1LI running WXP and the sound is OK. The key is that the sound is strong. ;)

  • Re: Satellite Pro A300D-161 - I want to upgrade the RAM to 4 GB

    Hello, I want to upgrade my RAM from 2 GB to 4 GB.

    The laptop box, said the other: 2 GB DDR2 800 Mhz, but when I check the CPU - Z it says 400 Mhz

    http://img140.imageshack.us/i/cpuz1.PNG/
    http://img267.imageshack.us/i/cpuz2.PNG/

    The website of toshiba says also 800 Mhz, so wich 1 I need to buy?
    1 x 2 GB DDR2 - 400 Mhz
    or
    2 x 2 GB DDR2 - 800 Mhz

    Also, I wonder when I switch to 4 GB, the amount of memory will be dedicated to my video card?

    Thank you

    Hello

    CPU - Z is definitely wrong! Satellite Pro A300D-161 needs DDR2-800 MHz to upgrade according to the specs on the Toshiba site.
    If the information on the laptop box is correct.

    More video RAM will be assigned automatically and with 4 GB of RAM you will get more memory video too.

    Good bye

  • Satellite Pro A300D - where can I get driver ceiling microphone?

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300D. I upgraded to Windows 7 from Vista, but lost my Toshiba built in software while doing so. I can access my webcam via applications such as Skype, but my microphone no longer works.

    Where can I find the driver for the webcam/microphone software that I had before the upgrade?

    Hi PyroTails,

    The built-in mic is part of the webcam, which means that you need to download the driver for the webcam that you can get here:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    After installation, it should be possible to use the internal mic. :)

  • Satellite Pro A300D heats and turns off

    Satellite Pro A300D gets very hot and sometimes it turns off by itself. He did this recently.

    What could be the problem?

    Hello

    Usually, the notebooks of cooling modules should be good enough to ensure that the laptop could be cooled properly.
    It s not necessary to use a cooling means.

    In most cases, these cooling States blow air.
    This can be problematic, because internal notebooks cooling fans blow hot air too.

    I think you need to make sure there is enough free space around the laptop and should not use the device in his bed, sofa or on the lap. Use the laptop on the table and I think that this should help to avoid overheating more far.

    See you soon

  • Satellite Pro A300D - black & white photo via S-video

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro A300D. After months of work perfectly, it now gives me a black & white image on my screen extended through my S Video Jack, although my laptop screen is in color.

    I checked all the wires and they are fine. Did I miss something?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I had the same problem on my laptop satellite. I connected the laptop to my TV using an S-video cable and the image was just black & white.

    After reading here in the forum, I founded that I should try another cable. So I went to my local computer store and bought a high quality cable. I plugged the laptop once again on TV and everything was fine! :)

    And don t forget you check the settings of the TV in the display driver. If you have an NTSC TV, you will need to use this mode, otherwise the PAL mode.

  • Re: Satellite Pro A300D - firmware for the DVD player?

    Hello

    I recently got a nice new Satellite Pro A300D of my work and was just my typical thing to go through the update of their efforts. However, when you try to update the firmware of the DVD drive for my particular model (PSAK9E-00C003EN), I realized that the firmware he suggested was wrong. After watching on my pc, I discovered that my drive is Pioneer DVD - RW DVRTD08A (1.50), but I can't find information anywhere on the net about the updates of the firmware (or the existence of this drive at all!). Could someone point me in the direction of some information and firmware more recent if it exists?

    Thanks for any info that someone has!

    Willybob

    Satellite Pro A300D was equipped of various CD/DVD players.
    On the Toshiba driver page, you can find an update of the firmware that came out for a CD/DVD drive that was not installed in your laptop and so you can not install this update.

    If you are unable to find an update of the firmware of your CD/DVD drive, then an update doesn't exist and is not necessary!
