Satellite Pro A300D-1DZ - external VGA issue

Hello

Someone else has had this problem where to connect an external monitor/projector to the external VGA port its does not work, just showing what looks like a very distorted picture, moving around the screen.
Tried new drivers, BIOS update, change VGA settings in the bios for LCD & RGB but with no joy, does not not in Windows or in the boot.

Is there something I am missing here or is the port on the laptop really defective?

See you soon

Gareth

Hello!

What operating system do you use?
You have installed the driver on the Toshiba site?

It's not easy to tell what is the reason for this, but have you tried another cable?
Did you test another monitor?

Good bye

  • 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 - how to get Vista drivers

    I bought a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300D laptop a few days ago.
    The first task was to wipe Vista Home Premium there and put professional Vista I needed to connect to a domain.

    I did this and then install the drivers from the Toshiba driver download pages.
    There were a lot of riders who have failed, but I managed to fix most of the problems aside when I display the laptop to a projector, I can start cutting the bottom of the external display only.

    In any case, I am now led to believe that there is recovery of HARD drive on the disk that could give me the right drivers that they have been installed at the arrival of the laptop.
    How can I get these out of the system on a disk for example so that I can resinstall?

    Thanks for your time.

    Hello

    > Anyway, I am now led to believe that there is recovery of HARD drive on the disk that could give me the right drivers that they have been installed at the arrival of the laptop. How can I get these out of the system on a disk for example so that I can reinstall?

    I think that this is not possible because the recovery of HARD drive contains only unique image files and you will not be able to get only the unique drivers of the recovery image.

    HARD drive recovery can be used to perform a new installation of operating system from the HARD disk (without using the disc).

    The European driver Toshiba page usually contains all drivers Vista compatible and necessary for your laptop model. So I doubt that your problem with the projector might have something to do with the Vista drivers.

  • Need help with the installation of Windows XP Home on my Satellite Pro A300-1DZ

    Hi all.

    I have a Satellite Pro A300-1DZ system unit, model no PSAG1E-OOFOO4EN (think they are 'o' and not '0', circle with slash through it) with WXP Pro.

    I recently contracted a virus inside and as he removed, however it is not good so I want to re - install Windows XP Home edition. I backed up the computer, I have a Windows XP Home SP2 Pro edition disk and I have my product key.
    I put the CD/DVD in BIOS to run 1 drive and tells me that I can boot from the CD, I press a button and it loads the CD, select the option where to install windows.

    BUT! I can t go further than what windows does not detect the HD said he s not now, or whatever.

    My question is this: Please can someone me step by step instructions on how to reinstall XP and a link to all the drivers I need to make it work?

    PLEEASE!

    It's simple on my PC, also, please keep in mind, I am best suited for working on cars, I'm not stupid, but my calloused hands search for computers a little more difficult than Motors please not in many computer technical terms.
    I myself am the slow education in the dark arts of computers. LOL :)

    PS. the laptop has a Vista Basic sticker on it, but it is certainly the XP pro operating system. :)

    Hi jeff

    Here's your solution:
    1. go to bios with F2 when you see the toshiba start screen.
    2. Select the arrow to the left using the "Advanced".
    3 press down until you get to "SATA Controller Mode".
    4 change, using F7/F8, Chang [AHCI] setting [compatibility].
    5. make sure the CD/DVD drive is the first to start and F10 save and exit. computer restart when you are prompted to "press any key" press a button and hey presto as before windows will start the installation, but this time you won't get windows you said:

    Set up did not find Ant hard disks installed on your computer.

    Make sure any drive HARD are powered on and properly connected to your computer and any hard disk related hardware configuration is correct. This may involve running a manufacturer-supplied diagnostic or Setup program.

    implementation cannot continue press f3 to goto hell... uh I mean leaving the installation

    And you can continue on your installation of Windows XP Home edition.

    Hope I helped many other jeff's in the same boat. XD

    Hi all. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I have a Satellite Pro L850 1DZ and my wifi guard fall then plugging himself. It does this to Uni, in my old House and the new. The router was changed when I moved. It can fall so im sitting next to the wireless router and when im in another room. There is not no more wireless phones. Any ideas?

    Thank you very much
    Rhys

    Does it happen with the AC adapter plugged in, or by using only the power of dough mode?

    In which case it would only happen by using battery power mode, I recommend to change the saving parameters as shown here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD12017W0001R01.htm

    Watch wireless adapter power saving Mode settings
    Also an update of the WLan driver would be recommended.

  • 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 A300-1DZ cannot find HDD after BIOS update

    Hello world

    I recently bought a Satellite Pro A300-1DZ flea market.
    Put a new copy of Windows xp family.
    I then install all the drivers necessary own site of Toshiba and the end of it, I thought that it is perhaps a good idea to update the bios?

    OH DEAR what a big mistake.

    Now the netbook won't start windows.
    So I thought it's ok, I'll just start from the begginning and reinstall windows again, but he tells me that it cannot find a hard drive on my netbook?

    aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I'm going crazy,
    Could someone tell me please how to fix this? Thanks x

    Hello

    I think the value of the option SATA AHCI and hence Windows XP mode cannot find the HARD drive.
    It's because of the SATA controller.
    You can set the SATA AHCI compatible mode mode mode and this will allow you to install Win XP on the laptop without the use of SATA drivers.

    So, you have two options if you want to install Win XP:

    -> AHCI mode, but you must include the SATA drivers
    Compatible mode-> Win XP installation possible without SATA drivers

  • 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. :)
