• Satellite Pro U200 - external VGA monitor shows no output

  I bought this unit, such as used on ebay. It works fine except that the external VGA connection does not work. I'm on win 7 and I it does not recognize the external display properly and I can set it up as an expanded view. However the external display shows nothing. The external VGA display is fine because it works with other machines to laptop. I tried to use UBUNTU Live CD on this machine and tried to do the work of the external screen (and it also can recongize the external display and configure it) but there is no picture. I also connected the screen external vga port and then rebooted the machine, but still no picture. I tried to change the settings in the bios for both display, but all my actions point to a hardware failure.

  I don't know if it's a manufacturing defect? Do you know if this problem has been reported earlier for you. Y at - it a recall issued for this?
  Please advise I need to connect this external screen but am sure it's a fault of equipment with your device.

  Hey Buddy,

  Have you tried it with the factory settings? I mean the Windows preinstalled from Toshiba with all drivers and tools. If you have the Toshiba Recovery disk you boot from that disk and install Windows with all the drivers and tools.

  In addition, you can switch between internal and external monitor by using the FN + F5 key combination. It work?

• Satellite Pro A60: External monitor Shimmers

  I use an A60 Pro of the Satellite with a second screen (tft) as a dual display configuration. There is a very sensitive landscape shimmer that moves on the screen when viewing images or the dark backgrounds on the second monitor.

  I tried the monitor on another machine and it is very good, so I can assume there is a problem with the laptop or the ATI graphics card.

  If anyone can help me solve this problem, I would be very grateful, because it gives me a headache (literally!).

  Looks like you need to change the frequency (refresh rate) with the display settings screen. The internal monitor has a 60 Hz frequency (refresh rate), more external monitors are 80 Hz or 100 Hz. Now if you have the wrong settings of the external monitor will refresh at the same pace as internally, which gives a brilliant image. You must go to the display settings, select the 2nd monitor, goto advanced settings, and then monitor and change the refresh rate to say 100 Hz, try this.

  I hope your problem

• Satellite Pro L300 - external monitor has a yellow tint to the screen

  I have connected a new external monitor to my Sat Pro L300 and the monitor of the station has a strong tinge of yellow to the display.
  I have tried with other monitors and cables and they do the same screen that is yellow.

  Can anyone suggest what I can do, I tried to change all the color settings, but they don't get rid of the yellow tint.
  Thank you.

  Well, maybe this problem is related to the failure of hardware since will have to show common colors without changing the settings in the color settings in the graphics card Control Panel

  In my opinion this s hardware problem
  However, before I ask a technician for advice I recommend updated the BIOS and reinstall the graphics driver.

• Satellite Pro U200 - projector as external monitor

  I try to connect a projector as external monitor. I use a HDMI adapter, VGA, because the entry in the projector.

  If I use an old laptop, it works OK.
  If I use my Satellite Pro U200, Modelo PLUA1E-02301RSP, the display shows only the initial screen,

  I mean the landscape with the TOSHIBA logo, but it doesn't change.
  If, for example, I look at some photos as I have both monitors running, the portable computer I see the photo, but the projector doesn't change, it shows only the landscape and logo.

  What can I do?

  Thank you and best regards,

  Vicente

  I put t know if I understand you right but perhaps extended desktop enabled. You must disable this option in screen resolution settings.

  Can move you the open Office Windows laptops to the pic you is on the projector?

• Satellite Pro U200: Display Resolution changed to 1024 x 768, after sleep (Vista)

  I have some problems with my Satellite Pro U200 (WinVista, BIOS 3.50, Display Driver 7.14.10.1217).

  After the exit mode standby, the display shows the correct resoluion of 1280 x 800 for a second and then goes to 1024 x 768. It's very annoying.

  I tried to uninstall / reinstall the display driver, but it did not help.

  Does anyone have an idea?

  Well, I remember a similar problem happened on U200 with Windows XP and Windows XP MCE.
  The update of the graphics to the version 6.14.10.4543 driver has solved this strange switching

  Maybe the next update of the graphics card driver will clear this issue

• Satellite Pro U200 starts after some time it stops after 5 minutes

  Satellite Pro U200 stops after 5 minutes, then starts after some time. When she stops the
  blue screen say - stop: (0x0000008e, 0xaa846f58, 0xa9f29808, 0x00000000)

  Sysaudio.sys - address aa846f58 base at aa843000, datestamp 41107f1a

  Hello

  Believe me; It's not easy to say exactly why the BSOD appears.
  It usually happens because of a malfunction or severe software hardware fault.
  Have you used the operating system of the image of Toshiba?
  Message it says something about sysaudio.sys.
  This file is a system audio WDM filter processes and it s a part of the Windows operating system. It controls the material such as the printer or the graphics card at a lower level.

  Note: The virus uses these files as a camouflage. You should always use an anti virus application.

  In addition, you suggested that the laptop stops after 5 min.
  Well, this looks like an overheating problem. How did you use the laptop? You know that free space around the laptop is very important due to the circulation of air. Fans should also be free.

  I you use Notepad in the right position and it happen, so I recommend asking for help Toshiba service partner. They should check the laptop.

• Satellite Pro U200-> black screen after startup

  Hello

  It happens from time to time when I try to start my PLUA1E Satellite Pro U200-02802QS4, then I get a black screen even from the BIOS.
  What is wrong and how to fix this?

  BTW, I already have this BIOS version: P0044v370.exe installed.

  Hello

  This happens from time to time?
  This means that you can not reproduce this problem?

  Hmm that's not easy to say what the issue might be.
  Maybe the BIOS update will help you at the moment you can find BIOS 3, 7 victory on the European driver Toshiba page.
  If you have a lower BIOS version installed, then I recommend an update.

  It is also possible that this problem is related to some of the material; motherboard, screen, etc.
  In this case the part should be replaced but first of all it of necessary to know what part is affected and I think that the technician of the ASP for this

  What do you think???

• Graphic driver on Satellite Pro U200 (Vista Business 32 bit CZECH)

  I have two problems with my gfx driver.

  (1) for the recovery of the mode standby, the screen goes to 1024 x 768 instead of going back to 1280 x 800
  (2) for playback of Lineage 2, the game crashes to the desktop and I get the error message "display driver igfx stopped responding and was recovered. After Googling a bit, I found a new display driver for my Intel 945GM Express would solve the problem. So I downloaded the correct driver from intel.com but I can't install it. I get an error message saying "driver is not verified for this computer. Ask the manufacturer of the computer for the correct driver. So I went to the toshiba site and I downloaded the driver appropriate to go there (well, toshiba.com is not the last, intel.com has a more recent version). But when I tried to install it, I got the message that my computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installation! What does that mean?! I have read the readme file and my laptop has certainly meets the requirements, in addition to the driver, I downloaded to work for Satellite Pro U200, because I have entered all the necessary information to download the driver.

  If can please someone solve my problem? And if not, is it a toshiba support hotline or something where I can call?

  Yes, I agree entirely with snipe. In such situations, I do the following:

  Backup of my data-> recover my machine-> install the latest drivers and software including all the tools-> see what happens ;)
  And then work with the machine...

  I like computer systems...: D

• CPU in Satellite Pro U200 temperatures are too high

  Hello

  I'm a little confused / concerned about the temperature of my CPU (Intel T7200) in my Satellite Pro U200-199. The confusing thing is that the case temperature is generally higher than that of the junctions of the two nuclei, which is the opposite of how it should be.

  Everyone knows this?

  As well, the case temperature is higher at seems reasonable, even in basic use. Basic use of office applications takes the temperature to 49 c, and then everything above that (opening an application for example) increases the temperature has high degrees of the years 50 or 60. Under a larger load, temperature (T-box) goes up to 65 C.

  One of the consequences is that the fan is on most of the time.

  I would like to know if there is a problem with the measurement of the temperature T-box is measured correctly, or if the processor overheats. If the measure is a fault, then do nothing about this? Like changing the BIOS?

  I should mention that the computer is only a week and has a BIOS update.

  Any ideas or help greatly appreciated.

  David

  Hello

  The temperature of 50-60 degrees is not unusual. But I wonder how you measure this temperature or what tools or utilities did you use?

  Usually the CPU is not only responsible for the temperature inside the laptop.
  The graphics card and HARD drive also produce heat which increases the temperature of the laptop.

  Anyway, the computer supports protection against overheating. This protects the laptop and parts from overheating.
  If the temperature reaches a critical threshold the laptop would be automatically stops down
  but it seems that the laptop works properly so in my opinion that you should not be worried. ;)

• Satellite A200-1AX - External monitor reset

  I got my car and Acer monitor 20 inch and after a few minutes of use resets the monitor (becomes black and goes up to 1280 x 800).
  I tried on a different Satellite A200 with same works card (my brothers) like a charm, but when his hook on mine it keeps resetting. And also I see horizontal lines on the screen.

  My model is TOSHIBA Satellite A200-1AX (with a vga HD 2600 card).

  Hello

  You can disable the option in the power options of Vista to prevent mode standby when the lid is closed.

  > I got my self and Acer monitor 20 inch and after a few minutes of use resets the monitor (becomes black and goes up to 1280 x 800).
  However, reading this post I'm not sure if your external monitor goes black or the A200 display internal.
  Is what screen affected?

  Did you try a BIOS and update the display driver?
  If this is not the case, check this box!

  Unfortunately I don't have a solution to your problem, but it can also be a technical limitation. I'm also interesting to buy this docking station and I would like to know if there is the same problem with memory external HDD or USB sticks.

• No sound after installing Windows 7 on Satellite Pro U200

  Hello

  I just installed Windows 7 Professional on my Satellite Pro U200 10 p.

  Available for XP Pro.

  Sound has stopped working since the new facility (which fromatting the drive - no partition) and can not find a solution. The v6.10.1.6000 of SoundMAX Integrated Digittal HD Audio Driver is installed. I uninstalled and reinstalled several times, but this doesn't seem to be the right driver. I can't find info to tell me what the correct driver can be either. The Toshiba site is a little sparse on Windows 7 drivers for this model and gives no indication that the driver may be is.

  Windows 7 does not think that there is a problem and some reports that "this device works properly." in speaker properties > Configuration information dialog box. However not coming out, the speakers or the 3.5 mm jack

  Anyone got any ideas?

  Thank you

  James

  Hello

  Go to Device Manager and check what sound chip you have exactly:

  Use this statement:
  [How to identify an unknown device? | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=78]

  Then you should be able to find a good pilot.
  I also recommend remove/delete the sound card in Device Manager.
  Just select the audio remove card and press on, and then restart the laptop

  PS: Are you sure that the sound is not muted? Please check this too!
