Satellite S1800-921: USB - high tone sound appears

Hello

I have a Toshiba Satellite S1800-921 laptop.

Whenever I plug a device into one of the USB ports, this high pitch noise appears.

Then when I unplug a USB device, the noise disappears.

The noise is coming from the back of the laptop where are USB ports. The noise is very annoying because it's high ground.

I disabled the Ali PCI to device host controller USB in the Device Manager in Windows XP and which seems to stop the noise, but then I can't use all USB devices.

Someone has encountered this problem before and nobody knows a solution?

Any information would be most appreciated.

Thank you very much

Andrew

Hello

The noise does not appear if the USB devices are connected.
Well, I never heard talk about this show.
I know some different USB problem, but nothing on a high sound.

However maybe a Microsoft Update will change something.

    Hello

    In your case I would first update the chipset drivers. You can find it on the Toshiba site in * Archives *. In addition, you can update the BIOS too. Maybe this solves the problem with USB devices.

  • Need Driver USB for Satellite A30 921

    Need Driver USB for Satellite A30 921.
    I can't find.

    Please help me

    To be honest I really don't understand why you need the USB drivers?  :|

    Is it all the USB drivers are one included in the OS. It s no matter what operating system you have. Win XP or Vista.
    Operating systems use the own Microsoft USB drivers and installation of the USB driver is unnecessary. By the way; There is no 3rd party USB drivers ;)

    So now, it would be useful to know what operating system you have installed.
    If you are using XP then you should install SP2 and should update the operating system to the State.

    Furthermore, you shouldn't t forget to install the utility of chipsets Intel (pilot).
    You can find these drivers on the European driver Toshiba-> Sat A30 page area download.

    Hope that this information could help you get the USB port works again

  • I can't find a way to start Satellite A300 of USB

    Hello

    I have recently updated from a satellite A210 - 1 c 4 to a Satellite A300-1BZ.
    The satellite launched from USB without problem.

    How to set the A300 to boot from USB?

    To boot from a USB on this machine, you only have to set the stick in a slot USB, power of the machine upward and when the Toshiba logo appears, press F12.
    Then a menu similar to BACK appears when the USB can be selected to boot from.

  • Satellite A30 921 stops after 10 minutes

    I am the owner of a Satellite A30 921, but it stops after 10 minutes.
    I tried to change the settings for toshiba power management, but they will not work any ideas?

    The laptop turns off automatically without display of error messages?
    This can be caused by an overheating problem!

    How old is your laptop and you clean the cooling fans in the past?
    If this isn't the case, I recommend you this doing.

    To clean the fans, you can use the jet of compressed air that can be bought in most computer stores.
    The problem is that dust and debris inside of the laptop prevents cooling modules works properly, and so the temperature increases to a higher level. This leads to the farm automatically from the bottom.

    In my opinion, fans of cleaning might help with this problem.
    Good bye

    Seems that the laptop can not find the bootable source.
    This means that the HARD drive is malfunctioning or the boot sector is defective.

    By the way; have you tried to change the boot order in the BIOS?

  • Satellite 1800-921 material updates

    Hello

    My daughter received a Satellite 1800-921, but it needs to be updated.

    I need to allow him to become compatible wireless and also update the RAM.

    In addition, they are easy to do?

    Thank you

    The update of the RAM is possible. You can update for max max 1024 MB and these modules can be used:
    PC100 256 MB (PA3069U - 1 M 25)
    PC100 128 MB (PA3005U)
    PC100 64 MB (PA3004U)

    The situation with the WiFi network is a little different. The laptop does not support any card of minPCI of WLan and the internal upgrade isn't possible.
    But you can use a USB WiFi key or a PCMCIA Wlan card.

  • Satellite P100-257 enjoys High Definition Audio

    Hello.
    Tell me please: only P100 - and my P100-257 machines have in particular - HD audio? Specifications on this site tells that his 16-bit and Toshiba Bass Enhanced Sound System with SRS TruSurround XT technology. Tells me nothing about the HD audio. Card his (smart?) is Conexant

    I installed the new driver 3.11.0.50 (instead of 3.11.0.00 - if I'm not wrong) and it works. But 3.14... version gave no sound. Why that?
    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    I think that this Satellite P100-257 supports high definition audio.
    As mentioned that the laptop supports an audio chip Conexant CX20551-22 .
    This chip supports the Intel High Definition Audio specification 1.0 revision compatibility that supports a 16-bit stereo audio format.

    Regarding the audio driver. You must use one from the Toshiba page! They work for you!

  • Satellite M300 - left USB port does not work

    Hey,.

    I have a M300 Satellite, with a USB port on the right and the other on the left side. The one on the left has never worked with anything. Its never bothered me until now - I bought a portable HD and I need to connect it and a mouse at the same time...

    Interesting note though that when I put the laptop HD in the left USB port, the led lights, hard disk. The lappy himself made no sign he knows its there and I cannot access it, however...

    Any advice? Thank you very much!

    I guess, it is burning or something like that. You can buy a USB hub, it's a device that develops a single USB port into several so that there is more available ports to connect devices to a host system. It's not expensive and you connect many devices.

    Hello

    As far as I know the Satellite R630 supports USB 2.0
    Only a few models support USB 3.0, but this should be replaced in the future.
    Of my knowledge that the Portege R700 supports a docking connector which allows you to use a USB 3.0 controller.

    Seems that you have to wait a bit if you want a laptop with a USB 3.0
    But I think it's worse to wait because a maximum of 3 USB, 0-Port flow 2.5 times the speed of a USB 2.0 Port.

    Of course, you will need to connect a USB device to USB 3.0 to get this performance
