Satellite Pro A60: strange sound coming from speakers

Hello.

My brother has a Toshiba Satellite Pro A60 - my old laptop. However, it has a strange sound question. I wiped it a few months back, and the sound worked fine. However, after a week or two he suddenly started to sound like the speakers were blown out.

I made the assumption that stakeholders were indeed blown and connected to external speakers - but they made the same noise! I was wondering, this sounds like a card his fries, or a drivers/software error?

If it is a mistake to sound card, the sound card can be changed?

Hello

without changing the card its couldn t, it s on the motherboard and if you want to Exchange, you must exchange the motherboard together.

First question: did you always guaranteed on this machine?

Then my suggestion:

Back up the data on the machine, the recover with the recovery CD and then the noise should be gone. If not, and if you still have warranty on this machine, so it would be better to bring the machine to a service partner for a checkup of material.

Give some feedback if you have any additional questions.

Welcome them

  • Satellite P100-192: cracking sounds coming from the speaker when you use MSN

    Hello, I just bought this laptop p100-192. The speakers seem to mute (especially when there is an incoming message in MSN)
    Is anyone know why and a solution to this?

    Hello

    I studied in this forum for answers and it seems that the update of the audio driver will solve this problem.
    There is an update available (V3.11.0.51) driver that solve this crackling.

    But before installing the audio driver updated to at least the BIOS version 2.10 or higher must be installed on the laptop.
    Be careful. You must use the good BIOS and the correct procedure to update BIOS!

  • 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.

  • Satellite Pro A60-832: sometimes the OS starts without sound and modem

    Hello

    I have a problem with my Satellite Pro A60-832. Everything works perfectly, but sometimes my system starts without sound. When this happends, modem also does not work. After reboot, everything works well again. I integrate Windows XP Pro SP2, but the same thing was happening with the original Windows XP Pro SP1 provided in the Toshiba Recovery CD.
    Any ideas?

    Sorry for my bad English.

    As mentioned, a high temperature might be responsible for these drop-outs, but I n t think that there is a problem in your case.
    I think that the temperature cannot be very high immediately after the start of the laptop.

    In case I would recommend comparing the BIOS installed on the unit you with available on the Toshiba page BIOS.
    If there is a new version of the BIOS so you can try to update.
    But be sure you use the good BIOS and the proper procedure.

  • Upgrade memory from 256 to 512 MB on Satellite Pro A60

    Just want to confirm really what I got caught once before buying the bad memory. I read another thread, so am sure I'm ok with that.

    OK, the RAM, I need for the upgrade of the Satellite A60 Pro is:
    200-pin SODIMM, DDR PC2700 Unbuffered CL2.5 (Non - ECC)

    Maplin:
    http://www.Maplin.co.UK/search.aspx?criteria=A31CG&doy=24m12
    A31CG DDR 2700 512M SODIMM

    512MB 200-pin SODIMM, DDR PC2700 upgrade for the Toshiba Satellite Pro A60 Series notebook

    I don't think that 1GIG RAM is needed for my daughter :-)

    Note: On my main PC, I got defective Crutial Ballistix memory, but Crutial were very good replacing it for free.

    Thank you and a Merry Christmas and a happy new year to all of you on this forum.

    Ah, just another thing I'm not clear on.

    The NEW RAM replaces the existing, in other words I have remove the 256 and replace it with the 512? Reading the user manual, it is not clear and talks about expansion module. Probably, it would be obvious if I opened it to the top, but I'd rather not at this stage.

    Thank you

  • Satellite Pro A60 - Windows XP shows / use only a part of RAM available

    Hello guys!

    I am facing strange problems with one of my two A60s. I just upgraded two of them with 1024 MB of RAM the same. One works perfectly, but the other will show me only 410 MBs in Windows. The BIOS indicates the correct size. I changed the RAM from one to the other, but this strange error is always present. The version of the BIOS has been updated to 1.90 and has Windows XP SP2.

    Do you have any suggestions or ideas? Is there an easy way to put the management of RAM in Windows?

    Thank you in advance!

    Ralf

    It s very strange.
    I found that an additional Satellite Pro A60 info has been delivered with a different hardware configuration.
    Some A60 Pro comes with an internal memory of 512 MB and others with only 256 MB internal memory.
    In addition, the internal memory modules cannot be deleted and there is only one slot for memory upgrade.

    But I put t know why the OS shows only 410 MB

    Oh, I forgot to mention that the graphics card, also use the part of the main memory and, therefore, the operating system of shared memory could indicates a value of different memory.

  • During BIOS update by Satellite Pro A60 went down and did not start

    Hi all

    I have a Satellite Pro A60 and I've updated the bios. To halfway the update, my laptop came down and started Hasna´t since. It only give a couple of beeps (trying to tell me the bios is damaged, I guess) and turns off again.

    Tried to start with (~) key pressed (a tip I received from a friend), but without success.

    I live in a country where there is no available Toshiba dealer and I rather not ship the laptop for repair.

    Does anyone know how to fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    This doesn't sound good.
    If during the POST, the BIOS detects a problem, it will normally display an error message visual on the monitor explaining what the problem is. However, if a problem is detected before it initializes BIOS video card or a video card is not present or not detected then BIOS will play through the Speaker beeps to let you know there is a problem.
    Depending on the type of BIOS you have the BIOS can play beeps in a specific pattern to indicate what the problem is, or emits the signal even a few times indicating the problem.

    In your case, it is possible to s you used a bad BIOS or bad BIOS procedure. Both can damage the motherboard.
    To avoid such damage and mistakes, Toshiba published FAQ document.
    How to upgrade the BIOS on most of the units!

    That you should read before making updates to the BIOS!
    Unfortunately, I n t think that you can fix yourself. I think you should ask to help ASP.

  • Satellite Pro A60 does not

    When I start my Satellite Pro A60 I get the Toshiba screen, then it goes to a white screen and nothing else happens. I tried to remove the battery, disconnect it from the socket without success.

    I turned on the laptop and you press F12, but nothing happens, occasionally strange after the Toshiba screen, there will be a black screen with the words "Checking boot CD-rom" in the upper left corner and then nothing happens.

    Does anyone have any suggestions? If so could you please email me at [email protected]
    Thank you

    Hello

    Check please if the HARD drive is recognized correctly. Enter the BIOS settings and see if the HARD drive is listed there.

    You can also try to set the BIOS to the default settings and try using recovery media to see if the recovery procedure starts correctly (if the HARD drive is recognized properly).

  • 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)

    Good bye

  • 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!

  • Satellite Pro A60 Wireless connection problem

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro A60 which was connected to our main office using a Linksys Home Wireless - G USB adapt to I can share files and also connect to our connection broadband. The main office is connected directly to a G from Linksys home wireless gateway. It worked fine then for no reason (no settings have been changed or installed software) the laptop does not connect to the desktop or the internet. The software Linksys says that it is connected to the access point, but the internet cannot be found. Even if he says that it is connected I can't get to the desktop.

    I tried to set up a dial-up connection independent for updating drivers etc, but after the normal dial tones, he says that it cannot connect to the remote computer.

    We tried everything that we think would be grateful for any ideas. Please speak slowly and distinctly also even if I know a little technical jargon computers is a language that I'm not still commonly!

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    It's really not easy to say what can be the problem. In my opinion, you must remove all the settings and adapter WLAN Device Manager. Restart the unit, reinstall the wireless card and make a WLAN configuration again.

    In my opinion, it is very important to know if the WIFI network of the device works correctly, and if you are able to share files between the laptop and our main office. If it works properly again check the settings on our front door.

    One is the problem with Notepad or another device. If someone of your friends has a WIFI at home, you can try to check the laptop WIFI functionality. On this way, you can be sure that if the problem is caused by your Satellite Pro.

    If you find a solution please let me know what the problem is.

    Good luck!
