Satellite Pro L20 - Windows 7 - no sound

Hi ppl

New here... just installed windows 7 on Satellite pro L20 everything goes well no problem outside of having no noise looks that windows 7 doesn't like the old Toshiba laptops lol tried a range of drivers but still no luck...
Anyone know if there is a driver for windows 7? or I have to go back to Vista... shame 7 looks pretty good

Thanks for your comments

a soon J

> Does anyone know if there is a driver for windows 7
In my opinion you have Win 7 drivers on the Toshiba page for this oldie.
I found a FAQ from Toshiba on Win 7 support and Pro L20 is not there.

You should check your sound chip and do research on some pages of part 3 of the right driver Win 7

  • Driver LAN for Satellite Pro L20 Windows 2000

    I am looking for a local network (ethernet) drive to my Satellite Pro L20, who has Windows 2000 on it.
    I found one for WiFi, but not for the Ethernet (cable/CAT).

    Hello

    Well, you can t find all the LAN for Win2000 drivers on the Toshiba page because this unit has been delivered and tested with the Windows Xp operating system.
    However, I found the information that the appliance has a CL LAN Realtek 8100.
    In this case, I guess for visit the site Web of Realtek. You can find a compatible driver for this network adapter.

  • Need to reinstall windows, but does not have any CD - Satellite Pro L20

    Hi, I wanted to reinstall Windows XP home on my Satellite Pro L20, but do not have the software that my laptop came with (read the discs lost). I have a valid XP tone (like its stuck on the bottom of my laptop), but no disc so I tired using a copy of a cd of Windows XP home, which did not work, but let me go as far as the formatting of the hard drive.

    So now I use Ubuntu, but want to reinstall Windows. Have valid product key, but no software to reinstall.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    Christopher

    Valid key will not help you. This key belongs to the image recovery and copy included WXP he.
    If you have two options. Either you order original Toshiba recovery image or use Microsoft installations CD key which belongs to this copy. All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities that you can download at Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads.

    Good luck!

    Hi all!

    My problem is with a Satellite Pro L20.

    My hard drive broke so I replaced it. Now, when I try and install windows xp pro on the new hard drive, it does nothing. First of all, I put the disk it starts to load and say to support on enter to launch xp installation, R to repair windows or F2 to exit but when I press ENTER, nothing happens if I press R, it starts to look for windows in order to repair, but no windows system cannot be found because it s not been installed but know someone or have any good suggestions on how to get windows installed.

    Any information would be most appreciated.

    I could also just add that when the computer starts first and it s on the first boot of the bit with the Toshiba logo we have 2 options F2 and F12, none of them work when I press them and also when I pressed r in the window xp installation you should be able to type exit, and then enter to leave but some type of keys and some don't but be4 just broken hard drive it typed very well no problem, if it is the problem cos I can't press on enter how fist to solve the problem of keyboard?

    Thank you once more for the reading of my problem.

  • Reinstalled Windows XP now WLAN is not recognized - Satellite Pro L20

    I reinstalled Windows XP on my Satellite Pro L20.

    In Device Manager, I have a number of yellow question marks, which means that the operating system has not installed the drivers and therefore does not recognize the device.

    I downloaded the v5.3.0.35 Atheros Wireless Lan Driver Atheros dated 09/12/07 and tried to install these next to the 'Network controller' device, but nothing helped.

    Someone has an idea of what I might hurt or something else I could try? Sole purpose of the laptop is wireless connectivity, so I'm anxious to get this sort.

    Thank you very much for any assistance you can provide.

    Hello Thomas

    It will be interesting to know what L20 you exactly (L20 - xxx). It will be easier to identify what material is built into it.

    Anyway, as far as I know this laptop comes with operating system Windows XP Home edition and will be best solution to install using the supplied OS recovery media. The OS will be installed just after 20 minutes and all the hardware components are configured correctly.

    Of course, you install OS on your own. On the download page of Toshiba just follow instructions order facilities and avoid all the problems.

    Back to the Atheros WLAN card. After you download the driver Atheros for Windows XP Home edition, open the folder INSTALL and run the setup.exe file. What happens when you do this?

  • Satellite Pro L20 goes wrong with i.f. audio Fast Track USB

    Hello!

    I used my Fast Track USB on new Toshiba Satellite L40 and I never had any problems with it. I could put a low latency and I did a few songs with him.

    Yesterday, I bought another laptop, thinking of recording studio at home. He used the Toshiba Satellite Pro L20. It does not work with my interface. When I listen to music on Winamp or anything on Fruity Loops, I hear strong clicks, pop, noise. They introduce samples, or they appear during playback, or after a sample is stopped.

    I noticed, drivers for Satellite Pro L20 are a problem. Its not supported by Toshiba more? The only chipset drivers are old, and you can download em only from site Web from Toshiba. The chipset is ATI Xpress 200 M. Its pilots are with the graphics card. Recently I noticed that you can download "ATI Catalyst Legacy Display Driver for Windows XP - card mother/IGP Drivers 9.11" and CRACK to make it possible to install on a mobile device like the L20. Yep it's funny, but its impossible to do otherwise!

    things that I have tried and they have still not help:
    replacement of drivers #, original were released in 2004. I installed the version.
    driver settings #, low latency, high latency
    # asio and different settings
    pluging # USB interface to another.
    # try what happens when I use the battery and when to use the adapter
    # update BIOS
    # off units such as wifi, card sound card on board
    # checked IRQ list

    persistent organic pollutants will always appear.

    my config:

    Toshiba Satellite Pro L20
    Win XP Home SP3
    Celeron M 1, 5 GHz
    896 MB of ram
    M - Audio Fast Track USB, drivers: 6.0.2

    Kind regards

    Initially, I wonder that you use old notebook L20 now. You have no more L40?

    You must understand that the Satellite Pro L20 is older model laptop and also not the best choice for such operations. This laptop is probably designed for simpler day-to-day operations such as the internet, e-mail, office, a little bit of multimedia and that s all the.

    I don't mean good old classic doesn't work with your external device, but you will be lucky if someone has the same external device and the same model of laptop and write about their own experiences.

    Do you use factory settings or you have installed the own operating system?

  • Satellite Pro L20 - recovery utility hangs and does not complete

    Hello.

    I've been running my L20 Pro Satellite for two years now, quite happy. Unfortunately, in the last 3 months, he began to misbehave. The startup time stretched to 5-10 minutes by that I mean time spent in "black" screen between the initials XP boot logo and the bright blue splash screen Windows. Playing sound/media crackled and stuttered badly through the loudspeaker. So, being reasonable technical, I've read various articles forum tried MSCONFIG tweaks here and there, removed all viruses etc... Nothing helps.

    I began to suspect a HARD drive problem. CHKDSK has not shown any errors. I finally resolved to back up my data and attempt a complete recovery. (Virgin!)

    Unfortunately, this is going to plan. medium 90% up to the end of the NVA Toshiba Recovery Utility 1.0.1.0 I think, started making subtle beeps and stopped on the 'X:\03596002 '. File of the GHS. The Green HARD-drive activity light has renounced his reassuring twinkling. Nothing.

    Any suggestions tips out there? I am currently in the State where he can not start (no NTLDR found).

    Help.

    Thank you.

  • Satellite Pro L20 - need keyboard driver

    Hello world

    Just need help to find a keyboard driver Toshiba Satellite Pro L20, I re-installed windows as my hard drive crashed and as was a second hand laptop he didn t come with recovery disks.
    I downloaded every other player wireless, screen, sound, touch pad batch but I really struggle to find a m keyboard driver.

    My laptop at the moment alone will keyboard type with the weird key, others do not work at all I use a plug to the keyboard for the time being, not very mobile.
    Any help would be appreciated most.

    Kind regards
    Dave

    Thank you to everyone who takes the time to read my problem.

    Akuma is right. You should not install driver for keyboard functionality. Used keyboard driver Microsoft standard included in the operating system Windows XP Home/Vista edition.
    So if some buttons do not work, there may be a problem with the keyboard itself and you need to replace.

  • Satellite Pro L20: Headphone port crackling noice at startup

    Hello

    I'm a uniform crackling noise that I've isolated to the headphone jack (green) of my Satellite Pro L20, who is just coming (2 days) for his first birthday, running XP Pro SP2 with all updates installed and no apparent driver problem.

    This noise occurs without any sound applications to startup and running, namely when you tilt the computer and Windows loads or when you get back to windows after hibernation. If I plug headphones in this port, of course, the sound is removed. All audio applications seems to work OK (for example Windows Sound, iTunes, Etc.) and so it's disconcerting.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you.

    Mikey UK.

    Hello

    During the operating system boot process Windows uses a standard, stored audio file on the HARD drive.
    This audio file can be disabled, or you can choose another.
    This can be done in the control panel-> sound and audio devices-> Audio tab

    Choose Start Windows box program of events and check if audio windows xp demarrage.wav the file plays without crackling noise.
    If crackling noise appears then I assume that this file is corrupted.

    You can also choose another file wav for this event or you can simply choose no and no sound will appear during the Windows startup process.

  • Beep on Satellite Pro L20

    You just bought a new Satellite Pro L20 PSL25E-00K00CEN, less than 12 days old. He had these recurring short beep (1-2 sec), perhaps that every 20 minutes then maybe every hour. But no notification of what the beep wasn't on. Laptop works on current electric.

    No external device connected or disconnected. None of the obvious reasons. Beeps occur if I'm working on the laptop or not.
    Would be very grateful if anyone has similar problems and solutions?

    I even turned off "sound and notification" of the Panel, but never stopped beeping!

    Hello

    I don't know what could be the noise.
    The fact is that the beep occurs during the computer laptop startup procedure. It is usually a beep code. But this should not appear in the operating system and if the unit is running.
    However, this seems very strange. Your laptop is fairly new and the warranty is valid. You should ask the Toshiba service partner for review. Maybe he knows more about this strange event.

    Please post again if you will get more information.

  • Satellite Pro - Slow start up and sound is messed up

    I had my * Toshiba Satellite Pro * with * Windows XP * for a good few years now. She has always worked like a gem and only gave me no problems until a few weeks ago.

    A few weeks ago I was downloading a program and with it the virus 'Antivir Solutions' very undesirable and unliked. I've done everything I can to get rid of this disaster (with the help of the support forums) and I think that I managed to get rid of it, but since my computer has not been the same.

    I had trouble downloading a PDF document, a few days ago and it froze so I tried to restart that caused the computer to have a hissing fit, remove my user account which meant I had to configure everything again from scratch. And, now, the computer takes a good 45 minutes from the moment you press the button "ON" when it is ready to start working. Not to mention, it takes a good 10 minutes every time you click on an icon for the program to start actually...

    I tried to defrag the system and you have tried to uninstall unused programs to speed up the computer, but it did not work.
    I also ran several anti-virus (e.g. Norton, AVG, Microsoft Security Essentials) to make sure that I don't have wicked not spoil me, but they come clean.

    May I also add the sound is messed up also. If I use the built-in speakers or external speakers, the sound is disjoint and broken. Like any video I have play.

    I don't know what to do.
    I can't really afford a new computer, but I need my computer to be reliable. I use my computer for 12 of the 24 hours a day...
    * What can I do? *

    Hi nicoletrist,

    I put t know what laptop you have exactly, but I think that the slow start Windows is caused due to viruses you have or had.
    A few years ago I also had a virus and it was causing a very slow start to the top, he did take up to 10 minutes until Windows has been loaded and the only solution to get rid of this used Toshiba recovery disc.

    I would like to recommend you. Use the Toshiba Recovery disk to restore to factory settings and save your data, because everything on the HARD drive will be erased.
    I'm sure after using the laptop recovery disk will work like a charm again! :)

    It s not very serious problem if you have lost the recovery CD. The partner of Toshiba service in your country offers all compatible devices and parts, also the CD.
    You can order the CD from this service partner.

    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.
