• Satellite Pro A60: Slow start

  I just did a clean install from the recovery disk hoping this may cure the problem of him take 10 minutes so that it starts on the desktop, but it always takes some time. I can now assume that I have a clean update, I only have the bare minimum installed and certainly not virus, spyware, malware or anything else, that does not in my view I had, but felt I had to go through this excersise anyway.

  Although he has only 256Meg of RAM it is always used to start much more quickly a few months back so I was wondering if Toshiba had driver updates that had addressed this issue? I looked in the driver downloads, but I can't say if what publishes the update made dealing with.

  Any advice would be much appreciated.

  Hello

  Maybe the performance is reduced to avoid overheating.
  Maybe you have to clean your cooling system.

  Either by the way, you should think of the memory upgrade. 256 MB is not really much.

• Satellite Pro A60: How to change the size of the AGP aperture?

  Hi people!

  I recently bought a laptop Satellite Pro A60 series.

  I also had an upgrade to 512 MB RAM module for it.

  Since then a few games that I try to launch slow area. (it wasn't before) I have increased the Frame Buffer, but wish to increase the AGP Aperture Size as well, but there is no option for this in the BIOS?

  Is there a fix that solves it?

  Hello

  Well, you said that the games run a bit slowly after upgrade memory.
  In this case, I guess that the graphics card is not really the problem.
  As far as I know if memory modules are not similar system could runs unstable.
  In addition, after the upgrade, you should try to install this new programs (games).

  Best regards

• Missing drivers for a Satellite Pro A60 PSA65E

  Hello

  Just to put the hand on this Satellite Pro A60 PSA65E - 01H00U8K.
  It was really slow and crashing regularly so I reinstalled windows XP by using a copy of XP I had round lie and the license key at the back of the laptop.
  I have not the original CD media provided with calculation, so I used the following link for the
  [PSA65E driver on the site of toshiba UK page | http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=UK&selCategory=8 & selFamily = 193 & selSeries = 239 & selProduct = 537 & selSho rtMod = 384 & language = 13 & selOS = 10 & selType = all & yearupl = DST & monthupload = & dayupload = & useDate = null & mode = all Machines & search = & action = search & macId = & country = 8 & pa ge 1 = & startPage = 1 & prevCl = true].

  I installed all the drivers and software on this page, but my device manager is always showing three elements as not installed:
  Network controller
  Modem PCI
  SM Bus controller

  Can anyone give me specific instructions as to where I could find the drivers for these items? Or that drivers on the driver page to attempt to reinstall!

  Thank you very much, Tom

  Hello

  SM BUS controller-> Flash Media Driver

  Network-> driver LAN or WLan controller is
  Note: there are various different manufacturers Intel, Atheros WLan drivers, etc.

  PCI modem-> you need driver modem.

  PS: don't forget that the SP3 of XP Win is installed too.

• How to reformat my Satellite Pro A60

  Hello world.

  I have a very old laptop (Satellite Pro A60) and have just started to use again (will have to buy a new one soon), but this 'thing' is incredibly slow. I want to just reformat the drive, but I am at a loss how to do. It was in fact the portable parents first if I do not have the original XP disc.

  How can I do this? Any help will be much appreciated.

  Thank you.

  If you wish to format HDD books, then you will need to use an operating system.

  Usually, the laptop came with the Toshiba Recovery CD.
  This recovery CD contains the OS, drivers, tools and additional software.

  You must simply boot from this CD (recovery CD) or Microsoft Windows CD and the operating system install.

  That s it!

• Satellite Pro A60-138 PSA65E - cannot boot from c WEIRD

  Hello
  I bought this laptop on ebay, with no cd or manual.

  Satellite Pro A60 GR
  MODEL PSA65E-01K032GR NUMBER

  Hard drive is formatted.
  I tried to install xp, because I start the laptop it just says: "control system.
  Then press [F1]. "If I press F1, it tries to read the cd and gives up after a few seconds.

  If there is no cd in the cd drive there simply nothing.
  I tried to start the bios menu but everything works,(F12,F8,del) key.

  Is there something I can do?
  installing drivers or anything like that?

  Hello

  In order to access the BIOS please press F2, then ESC.
  This should load the BIOS and you can change the boot order there.

  In addition, you can press F12 at the beginning.
  This will allow the menu on the screen where you can choose the STRANGE as a source of start-up.

  But are you able to boot from another CD?
  The CD/DVD drive is unable to read the disc, and therefore the boot process fails

  You could also burn this disc Win XP on another CD and could use the new disk to the start I did with my old laptop because the CD/DVD drive didn't read the old CD.

• Memory should what upgrade I buy for my Satellite Pro A60?

  Hi, I have a Satellite Pro A60 PSA65E, who currently has 192 MB of RAM and 2.8 GHz Celeron processor.

  My problem came when I tried to install Adobe Creative Suite 2 on it, but it would not allow me to do so because he needed 384 MB of RAM to run it. I was wondering if someone could tell me what RAM upgrade is compatible with my machine and if it inserted in another port or if I have to get out the old and replace?

  Thank you
  Donald

  Hello

  your laptop is 256 MB internal memory, I'm not sure why it shows only 192 MB. This internal memory can be replaced only by a technician. But you also have a currently unused memory slot, in which you can place a maximum of 1024 MB of RAM.

  Here are the modules from Toshiba lets you:
  PC2700 256 MB (PA3311U - 1 M 25)
  PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51)
  1024MO PC2700 (PA3313U-1M1G)

• Question about the use of the Satellite Pro A60 fan

  Hello

  I intend to get a Satellite Pro A60 and I was wondering how much the fan turns on.

  Could someone comment if the fan turns on when the machine is totally inactive, and how he lights up when the machine is used for word processing and surfing the web?

  For example, when using normally does the fan turn on 1/10th of the time, or 1/2 time etc.?

  Thanks in advance,
  Pete.

  Hello

  Sorry I can't give you specific information about the cooling fan. A60 is known to me. It's a very nice laptop. Cooling vent is in reverse I am a pretty that there is no background noise.

  If you make the decision to buy it, look at what the capacity of the HARD drive is too high and that the DVD-ROM can burn a lot of different formats (DVD Super Multi drive).

  Have lots of fun with it.

• Satellite Pro A60: what RAM should I take?

  Hello.
  I have a Satellite Pro A60 P4 532, with the following:
  3.06 GHz/XP Pro/256 MB/40 GB/15TFT/DVD-CDRW/LAN/WiFi

  I want to add memory (256 MB).
  On the web site of Toshiba, they lead me to the PA3127U - 1 M 25 (DDR PC2100), but I see that for almost similar laptops they offer the PA3311U - 1 M 25 (PC2700 DDR)

  * 256 MB DDR PC2100 (PA3127U - 1 M 25)
  -P4 532 (3.06 GHz) / XP Pro/256 MB/40 GB/15TFT/DVD-CDRW/LAN/WiFi
  -Celeron D335 (2.8 GHz) / XP Home/256 MB/40 GB/15TFT/CD-RW/DVD-LAN

  * 256 MB DDR PC2700 (PA3311U - 1 M 25)
  -P4 532 (3.06 GHz) / XP Pro/256 MB/40 GB/15TFT/DVD-CDRW/LAN
  -P4 532 (3.06 GHz) / XP Pro/512 MB/60 GB/15TFT/DVD-R/RW/LAN
  -Celeron D335 (2.8 GHz) / XP Pro/256 MB/40 GB/15TFT/CD-RW/DVD-LAN

  Can I take the PC2700?
  Not for the best performance, but it is cheaper!

  In addition, it is the same problem with 512 MB...

  Thank you

  Hello

  Yes, you can take PA3311U - 1 M 25 (PC2700 DDR).

• Satellite Pro A60 and Port Replicator

  I JUST BOUGHT A SATELLITE PRO A60 AND USB2 PORT REPLICATOR. WHEN I ATTACH MY LASERJET 1100 AND PRINT A TEST PAGE IT PRINTS WELL BUT IF I PRINT A WORD DOCUMENT IT RELEASED FOR EXAMPLE GOGGLEDYGOOK. CAN YOU HELP ME?

  Hello

  I understand your problem in this way.

  You have connected the printer via Port Replicator ports for the A60 SatPro.

  Œuvres driver and so on correctly because the test page can be printed. But when you want to print from Word the printer isn't or what do you mean by "GOGGLEDYGOOK".

  Could you describe a little more detailly and give us some more information like Toshiba shipped OS or MS based installation, Service Pack installed, the name of the printer and so on...

  When you want to validate this information, it would be easier to help you!
