Satellite Pro P105 - oar and Vista slow videos

Lately, my PC is bein very lag each time I watch a video and sometimes particularly slow to switch from one window to the other.

I had a GE 7900 NFORCE and 2 MB of ram T7200 intel core2 DUO, I ran antivirus and anti-spyware.
Everything seems fine but I can't possibly watch a video (I tried too many Windows video player and DVX) and sometimes even other applications become slower.

Everything worked well until 4 days ago.

There are perhaps too many background processes. Try to stop all unnecessary processes. When everything was OK when start checking all installed stuff. I think that some added demand make busy HARD disk and result is slow Vista.

  • New Satellite Pro U400-12y is very slow

    Just bought Satellite Pro U400-12y with Vista Business pre-installed (1 GB preinstalled memory).
    However, the startup is very slow and actually the computer seems to work in a time warp.

    Any ideas? Is there a fundamental problem?

    Yes, I have an idea.

    I think that the high amount of background processes affect the performance of laptops.
    He should know that the U400 supports many different features and these features are controlled by different applications.

    If you want you can start the msconfig and disable some unnecessary and unimportant process. Take a look in the Startup tab.

    In addition, I recommend to disable and remove the preinstalled software called Tempro.

    I did it on my system, and now it runs much faster

  • Satellite Pro P200-14W and WXP - no driver for PC memory controller

    I installed Windows XP on the Satellite Pro P200-14W and installed all the drivers I could find on the Web of Toshiba site following the instructions provided.

    I always have a controller memory PC that appear in hardware Manager who is not driver related to it.

    My main problem however is that at random intervals (sometimes when you pull the power cable) the defects of the screen and turns into a mess of the desktop computer and the computer must be restarted because it does more. I tried several types of graphics drivers, but this does not stop the problem.

    Any ideas on how to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated.

    If you have installed XP on this laptop Vista you must also update the BIOS to the version of Windows XP.
    Seems that at this time it s a 5.00Win version of the BIOS.

    To get rid of the yellow exclamation mark in Device Manager, you must install the
    Flash Media Driver. This is the driver for your bridge Media Slot. This slot allows you to insert an SD card, Memory Stick (Pro) or xD picture cards.

  • Re: Satellite Pro U300: critical battery Vista hibernate problem

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro U300 PSU31E and have problems with the critical level of batteries and hibernation since I got it.

    It comes with Vista Business

    Critical battery level is set at 2% - is the the strage thing if I hit Hibernate mode (via the power button or start > Hibernate) it have hibernated ok - even at 2% remaining battery. However if I leave it to do this automatically (via the action of critical battery and critical battery level Windows) he died just in hibernation - looks like it ran out of power. The only way I can operate automatically through Windows is by setting the battery level critical to 8% (he dies still in hibernation on what whether it is less than 8%).

    Normally you would just say ok the critical low level must be higher but one) why when I Hibernate manually less than 8% is working perefectly and b) put 8% loses me a good a few minutes! and (c) especially the computer or the battery do not think they are flat at 8% - then, the problem is that it allows you to restart. When the computer starts less than 8%, he has already missed his firm critical point 8% so then just down and down with no further action of the battery until it dies. My XP laptop would be closed, then the computer would know the battery is flat and do not allow a restart up to the critical load of 3%.

    What is one thing Vista or Toshiba?

    Probably not the battery I have 2 with exactly the same problem

    I have all the latest drivers for the power and Vista SP1 and latest version of the BIOS

    Thank you

    Hi David

    I think it s not a Vista problem or question Satellite U300.

    The point is that the OS Vista needs a lot of resources and more energy than the older Microsoft operating systems.

    Always is it that same laptop with pre-installed Win XP would be a lot more time using the power of the battery as with Vista OS.
    Vista is a monster and he eats all the material resources.

    This means that if you use the Vista operating system, you must set the parameters of critical battery at a higher level to make sure that your laptop (Vista OS) would end Hibernate process correctly.

    I think that the last 2% of the battery power is simply not enough to put the laptop into hibernation mode.

    So don't worry, relax and enjoy your beautiful baby ;)

  • Satellite Pro A120-185 - need Vista Recovery disk - never get a

    Hello, my trusty Satellite Pro C: is completely filled, and so I would wipe and do complete a new installation of Windows.

    It came with VISTA on it when I bought it several years ago.

    It's a Satellite Pro A120-185 and the operating system only disk I got with it was just something to 'upgrade' disc of Vista.
    I bought and paid for Windows Vista with the laptop, thus so I wouldn't have a license can I reinstall?

    Please note that I am an advanced PC user, I'm not looking for ways to reduce the space that my household is good and I uninstalled everything I do not use or need.

    I just want to be able to clean the laptop and reinstall Windows Vista... is it going to be possible? (I don't see why it shouldn't be because Vista came with the laptop!). Please tell me where I can get the windows disk since?

    Hi dude

    Read the other discussions on this topic even here in the forum.

    You didn t get this disk because you create the recovery disk using the Toshiba recovery disc Creator called pre-installed tool.
    This was mentioned in the manual as well!

    However, here you can order the recovery disk that you didn't create yourself.

    Hello

    I want to say clearly that portable computers technology design is not the same as on the desktop and if you have a good experience with desktop computers, you'll know that upgrading the graphics cards is not so problematic, but on laptops, the situation is very different.

    Laptops design and construction doesn't allow such flexibility for upgrades, upgrading the graphics card is not possible.

  • Satellite Pro A300 - 1DZ PSAG1E Vista - cannot get WLan to work

    I have the Satellite Pro A300-1DZ with Vista.
    I can't get the wirless to work. I saw this thread and downloaded the driver wlan as above.

    How is it installed well?

    Thanx

    Your Satellite Pro A300-1DZ belongs to the series of PSAG1E and this series was equipped with Realtek 802.11(b/g) 13ch-RTL8187B WLan card!

    You must use a card Realtek WLan driver.

    But just a question; The WLan driver should already be preinstalled. Have you activated the WLan first before attempting to connect the router toe?

  • Satellite Pro A300 - WiFi is 50% slower on XP on Vista

    I noticed that the WiFi transfer is slower on Windows XP Pro with Vista original installed on the same machine.

    I tested the issue on Toshiba Satellite Pro A300-1NT - what is possible or my Toshiba is not work propely?

    Hello!

    You may notice a different speed of connection in XP or do you think it is 50% slower?

    I think the drivers are different so in your case, I would try the latest XP driver from the Toshiba page:

    What type of wireless LAN using? New project of N or e. g. 802.11 g?

  • Satellite Pro 2100 is really really slow running

    I have a satellite pro 2100 I killed a friend.
    He said his brother gave him and that he had no idea what was wrong because he didn't have a chance to watch it.

    I put windows xp pro top and used the bottom of the laptop pro license key.

    but the laptop is really really slow.
    It may take up to 5 minutes for nothing I click to open up.

    the strange thing is the laptop works fine in safe mode, can open things like I should.

    but in normal windows mode, it slows down to a crawl and even crashes.

    I have trie all to my knowledge.
    I even uninstalled and turn off the graphics drive that I thought that he maybe, but he always does.

    I tried multiple copies different from xp pro and even tried a copy of vista, but still the same.

    He had 2 different lots of tried in ram, 2 sticks was new aswel. I tried 3 different hard drives and still the same.

    My thoughts are that the integrated graphics card is exhausted.

    can anyone else confirm this? Certainly this isn't a software issue because I tried a few different copies of xp and vista. IM about to bin it now.

    > anyone can confirm this?
    Don t think someone could confirm everything that is related to a malfunction of the equipment.
    Here in the forum, we can talk about problems and makers of disorders, but no one will be able to say with certainty what's going wrong here.

    First laptop computer is an oldie.
    The Mobile Intel Pentium 4 CPU, isn t a up to date CPU and in my opinion, that don't expect too much performance.

    I put t know how this camera supports memory but everything below 1 GB of Ram would be good enough to the smooth running of the laptop.

    However, given that the unit works much faster saving mode, I guess there must be a hardware related problem.

  • Satellite Pro A10 - SP2 or 3 slows the performance of XP?

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro A10 PSA15E that, over the years, had become very slow.

    Recently, I upgraded it's RAM from 256 to the maximum of 1 GB to try to speed things up, but it did not help.

    Then I reformatted the hard drive and reloaded the system using the Toshiba recovery disks. It worked well and the system performance has been excellent. However, with online safety in mind, I loaded the Windows SP2 (to go then to SP3) and it took the system back to where I started - very, very slow, in fact pretty much unusable.

    Does anyone know if Toshiba compatible SP2 and SP3 on this laptop model?

    If yes how install them without killing performance?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello!

    According to me, SP2 or SP3 is supported on this Toshiba laptop because two Service Packs are contains important security updates and I think that's not the problem.

    If you install SP2 or SP3 you also get the center of security and better Windows Firewall. Maybe you should disable these two services given that the slowdown in the performance of the system (I always disable the two services).
    Just go to start-run-services.msc online online and disable both services and set the startup type to disabled.

  • Satellite Pro A120 - clock system is slow

    Hi all,

    Since a few days on my Satellite Pro A120 Windows XP system clock is slow (the data are correct).
    Usually I realize it after turning on the laptop, sometimes even when the operating system is woking! I tried all types of virus/malware/spyware scan, system restore point. I guess the problem is the used battery from the RTC. Is it possible even if the data is correct?

    Thanks in advance

    Marco

    > Sice a few days on my Satellite Pro A120 Windows XP system clock is slow (the data are correct).

    I'm afraid I n t m understand what you mean by system clock is slow.
    The BIOS clock shows incorrect data or time?

    Have you tried to change the time in the BIOS and then to check the time in Windows XP?

    Do this!

  • Satellite Pro P100 - screen and sound problems after upgrade to Windows 7

    Hi all

    I got my Satellite Pro P100 (model number is PSPAEE-00C006EN and the second digit of the serial number is '7') upgraded from Vista to Windows 7, and since then, some bugs seem to have had place - can someone help me on the following:

    -L' screen DIMS increments, irrespective of the fact that I have saved my power settings to stay on FULL (battery or sector)

    -No sound. Once or twice, the sound card worked and settings to say this works correctly (and you can see the movement of the graphic equalizer).
    In terms of PC knowledge, I would be 5/10 (so not a dummy, but certainly not a pro! and we tried a lot of the more obvious things)

    Thank you all

    Hello

    1.) if the screen dim option doesn't properly work, I recommend you to reinstall Toshiba Value added Package. This package controls these functions, the keys FN and others. Visit the Toshiba page for an update!

    2.) did you check if the sound is muted if the equalizer work? In addition you can also try to update the audio driver might it work ;)
