Satellite Pro A60: TEAC DV-W24E combo drive cannot be accepted.

I understand this drive must be compatible with the A60. What should I do so that it can be recognized by the system? After having removed the existing dvd rom and inserted the drive super multi, I conclude that although it lights it does not appear in 'my computer' or in Device Manager. "Find new hardware" also produces no result.

Any help appreciated, thanks...

Hello

The BIOS recognizes the drive?
If this isn't the case, so I guess that the reader isn't compatible due to bad csel/slave/master settings.
In this case, I would recommend ordering the compatible reader

    Hello

    I think the disk replacement procedure is very similar to replacements on other laptops.
    To remove the STRANGE bay module follow these steps:

    1. turn the computer.
    2. remove the black binding screws.
    3 turn the computer over and open the display.
    4. push the module bay ODD.

    All that s. It s not achieved with a screw.

  • Satellite Pro A60: Break guard ATI display driver

    I've had my Sat A60 laptop pro for about a year now.
    I had a few problems with it since I got it, but the main problem is to occur in the last 6-7 months.

    The ATI display driver guard break and in order to make it work, I have to restart the system. This has been a problem persisting for some time and it is now quite irriating. He does the most embarrassing times as when I watch a DVD or listen to a CD.

    Sometimes, when I put the computer in mode standby, the screen doesn't even start again and the screen remains blank. In order to sort this point I have to turn off the laptop and then restart it. The main problem that I put this down to an overheating, as it can become quite hot when I use it.

    So, I know how to fix this problem, simply by turning off the dust from the fans. But if there is no alternative to this help please.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    For most overheating occurs because of the dirt and dust inside the cooling modules. Fans may not work properly and can not turn with a maximum return.
    I think you should check the fans. I think that the best way to clean the fans is to use the hose of vacuum cleaner against the fan grids.

    About the display: in your case I would recommend you first update the display driver. Additional if the operating system is running for some time on the laptop then maybe a new installation of OS form the Toshiba CD recovery would help.

  • Need latest driver for ATI Radeon 7000 igp - Satellite Pro A60 mobility

    Please let me know which ati driver to d/l for my laptop satellite pro a60 en please.

    How can I find out what bios version I have installed and which is the latest relevant version for me and windows xp.

    Many thanks steve

    Hi Steven,

    You can access the last display on the web site of Toshiba driver. Just click on the tab Support & downloads (Download Files) and then enter the details of your laptop. You can select all drivers or just the display drivers.

    You can find out what version of BIOS you have by entering the BIOS during the initial power on the process. Just press the ESC key when the TOSHIBA logo appears, and then press F2 to enter the BIOS configuration panels. Make sure you do not make changes to the BIOS settings unless you really want to. :-) As with the details of the driver, you can access the latest version of the BIOS for notebook on the Web from Toshiba-> Support site @ downloads-> update your BIOS, then just enter the details of your laptop.

    Kind regards

  • 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.

  • 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.

    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...

  • Satellite Pro A60: On startup graphics card problem

    Just got a Satellite Pro A60.
    Whenever it starts it stops and then restarts. It then works perfectly OK, even if restart you. But then if you start it once it is shut down for a few hours it crashes at startup upward again?
    Windows error report accusing the graphics driver ATI Radeon 7000 (see report below), but I've updated the graphics driver and still get the same problem.

    Hi Barry,.

    I'd be inclined to return your laptop to an authorized Service Agent Toshiba. The OEM software should not require all the updated drivers at this early stage of his life, and the unit will be well within its warranty period.

    The closer your repairman details can be found on the Toshiba site.

    It restarts and goes through toshiba screen and on the screen of windows xp... then a blue screen that says please wait while windows prepares to start... then on windows xp with a saying of hourglass professional screen, please wait. Nothing else happens.

    It does nothing else, we left it for 3 hours today and it didn't go past this screen.

    Everyone knows it or can give me some tips on how to make the laptop still works?

    I installed windows and the Toshiba Recovery many times and I didn't noticed this problem on any of my books.
    I remember that once my Windows installation operating system has failed. I put t know why
    But I just formatted my HARD disk, erase all partitions and started the installation again! The procedure is completed successfully and portable started in the Win XP operating system.

    You must understand you problem could be linked to the software only or the operation of the equipment (HARD drive?)

    One question; have you used the recovery CD Toshiba compatible? I read repeatedly on similar problems, and finally the wrong recovery CD was the reason for start-up/installation problems.

    Make sure that sue you the good CD and then I would recommend repeat the installation of the OS.
