Satellite Pro L20 running Vista has the formidable problem code 12

I try to get my L20 to use all cards PCMCIA with Vista, but I get the dreaded 12 code problem.
Y at - it a patch for this problem? I know some Toshiba must have a Vista BIOS works correctly, but there doesn't seem to be one for the L20.

P.S. cards will work perfectly under XP. Server 2008 also has the same problem.

You should maybe contact the card manufacturer and ask for help. They are responsible for the functionality of the card and not the manufacturer of the laptop.
They write clearly that it should work with Vista. So contact them and ask for help.
They should have enough experience with the configuration and the use of own products.

Also, I assume that they tested the functionality of the map before they we offered on the market.

    The Toshiba recovery disc can t be downloaded. If you want a new drive, you must contact an authorized service provider. Maybe they can order a new one for you.

    Alternative you take Microsoft Windows disk and install the operating system for this disk. After that, you can download all the drivers and tools on the Toshiba site. It takes a little longer and it s not so uncomfortable.

  • Satellite Pro L20 - I can identify the right recovery disk?

    Hi all

    I wonder if there is a way to identify what recovery CD or DVD came with a particular laptop model?

    I have a number of Toshiba laptops and it is that recently that I started to write a note that's CD/DVD with a machine.
    for example
    GMR400788EN0 goes with Satellite Pro A200 PSAE4E-03U017EN

    I'm trying to figure out which CD is going with a Satellite Pro L20, PSL25E-00800CEN

    Thank you
    Ian

    Hello

    Sorry, but I think that there is no way to identify which CD belongs to what laptop.
    If your laptop comes with the recovery disk it should be a CD label or so on it.

    Anyway, it shouldn't be a problem, and you should test if it s the right recovery disk.
    Or you have so many Toshiba laptops? ;)

  • Satellite Pro L20 - right button on the touchpad does not work

    I have a Sat Pro L20.
    When I press the right button on the touchpad, nothing happens. The left button works fine.
    I checked the properties of the mouse left button is set as the main click with the right button, defined as the secondary click.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Maybe the touchpad button has a physical malfunction.
    But first of all, you can try to reinstall the driver for the touchpad. Check if the resettlement will change something. But the truth; I don t think this will solve the problem. Anyway, try is free, you know.

    But if that does not help so I think you need to replace the touchpad.

  • Satellite Pro L20 - no sound from the front speakers

    I just bought the laptop L20. Everything works fine apart from the front speakers. I don't get all the sounds on their part. Sound works very well since the head phone jack. I ran that the Toshiba diagnostic test and has not made all the sounds either. In the volume control window each volume slider is up and the Mute check boxes are checked. The obvious problem only in the window volume control which is the "PC Speaker" section is grayed out and cannot be selected. I installed the latest version of BIOS and drivers audio Toshiba Web site but not joy. Am I missing something obvious here? Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello

    If the sound works fine through headphones so I guess we're all ok with the onboard sound.
    There may be a malfunction of the speaker. If the laptop is under warranty all replacements are performed free of charge.
    The speakers are not very expensive and you should ask the service to help him.

  • Card PCMCIA Avaya on a machine Satellite Pro 4320 - 31 to load the driver error code

    The machine works perfectly in all respects. Recently attempted to add an Avaya Silver wireless card to the system.

    Somehow the system has problems with the supplied driver. I have redownloaded the driver support site (now on version 7.62, the driver should support the card as a "Avaya Wireless PC Card".) I have to the latest driver available.

    Given that the machine works under Windows 2000, SP4 and all available patches, and yet didn't have questions about installing a card like this on a Windows 2000 computer before, I'm a little confused as to what may cause the problem.

    The card is detected properly, and the pilot is recognized. When installed the Device Manager still representing a yellow exclamation mark on the map of Avaya. When investigating this error shows that Windows 2000 cannot load the drivers on an error code 31.

    I found Code 31 made reference to possible support material that gives the questions. I turned my attention to the CardBus controller (ToPIC100 according to Device Manager). The version used is Microsoft, 20/06/2003, 5.00.2195.6717.

    Appearantly it is a newer driver (5.1.2600.0) but I failed to bring one downloaded. Seems that it is only available through Windows Update, which does not show the update as being available for the machine.

    Then... Anyone know how to get the map Avaya Wireless Silver active PCMCIA on a Satellite Pro 4320? I need a newer driver, or can not be done at all?

  • Satellite Pro L20: Adapter WLan has stopped working and will not allow

    Hello

    I have a L20 Pro Satalite, which works very well. However, just before Christmas 2006, the adapter wireless (Atheros AR5005G) has stopped working.

    Windows XP Pro SP2 can see the adapter and network connections shows as being activated, but he sees not all networks.

    The Atheros Client Utility says that the adapter pases troubleshooting TI test diagnosis up to the Radio, when he says that the Radio is disabled and must be enabled in the Client utility.

    'Excellent!', I thought: opening the utility forward. Looked in the Action menu to find "turn on the Radio" is greyed out!

    Help!

    Any help is very welcome.

    See you soon,.

    Barry Smith.

    Is there a hardware option to enable and disable your wireless network card? (switch)
    You upgrade your Wlan driver recently? (If Yes, maybe with the wrong driver?)

    I had a similar problem once and resolved through driver updates... want to give it a try?

    You can download the driver generic Atheros (Version 5.0.0.107) available here:

    Hello

    The first error message said nothing; He only says that something is wrong on the HARD drive.
    Why you n t pres the button Don t ask me once again this problem?
    It seems the message again using this option?

    On the second picture, I see that your Intel Matrix Storage Manager has not been installed on your Vista 64 bit OS.

    On the European driver Toshiba page, you will find the 64 bit Vista drivers. Please download the Intel Robson Package from this site and install it. Robson package includes Intel Matrix Storage Management Utility for the management of your local storage space.

  • Satellite Pro L20 - replacing the screen

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro L20 and it has a cracked screen.

    Can I put any brand screen inside? Or should it be a special type?

    It's a 15-inch screen, so as long as I don't have the same size, it should go all right in I guess.

    Any help would be good.

    Hello

    I'm no technician but and I don't know if all the screens have a universal connector. So if possible try to visualize for laptop L20 to ensure the connector will be the right one.
    On eBay you can find many parts for Toshiba laptop, so check it out. With a little luck, you can find cheap display there.

  • Satellite Pro L20 - CPU / battery upgrade

    Hi all

    I have a L20 the Satellite with the Celeron 360 Pro. I have seen that you can get another satellite pro L20s running Pentium m 730 1.6GHZ CPU. I was wondering if it was possible to upgrade the processor in this machine. The power of thermal design of the Celeron is 21W which is slightly lower than that of the Pentium-M 27W, but should not running too hot as it has speedstep, the only problem is that the Pentium versions seem to have Intel graphics and the Celeron have ATI x 200, it's a different motherboard or the same?

    If anyone knows if the upgrade is possible can you please post and let me know. Thank you!
    Also, I noticed there is a battery 4300mAh who would last longer 200mAh battery I have, it works on 14.8V where as mine is 14.4V would this work in my laptop, im assuming that it should?

    Maybe this thread will help you to get more information on the upgrade of CPU:

    I found the part number of the battery (8 cell, 4300mAh): PA3420U-1BRS Toshiba Option European and accessories site and it s certainly consistent with Sat L20 and Satellite Pro L20

    Hello

    Also try switching to the external device settings Intel. You can find it under Advanced display settings. I also recommend you to reinstall the TOSHIBA utilities. I'm not 100% sure but it may be responsible for the function FN + F5.

    Also check Toshiba HWSetup under the view tab. Activate LCD + analog RGB option.

  • Satellite Pro L20 charge query

    Hi, have a Satellite Pro L20. LED on the front of the laptop shows full battery (LED is green), "feed icon" on the screen shows the battery with virtually no load (16%), unit said "Recharge" but "%" battery does not increase.
    When I remove the charger, battery falls '&' as the battery discharges. All clever people out there with any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hey,.

    If you already tried different batteries, it appears to be a malfunction of the loading/control unit on the motherboard itself.

    I think this case you can do anything and you need professional help of an authorized service provider. Guys can check your laptop and solve this problem.
