• Satellite L20 - 101 - Sound driver causes blue screen

  1. my laptop is a Satellite L20-101. It worked fine until yesterday when I reinstalled the system (from recovery cd) after 3 years. I have updated the bios to version 1.70 (drawn from the toshiba site). Devices audio conexant could not be recognized, and if I run the installation of the latest audio drivers (sound-20080604145033), it fixes the problem, but when you restart the system and login as administrator I get a blue screen. Any help pls?

  2. given that the LAN card is working, there is a message for the installation of a driver for a network device!

  3. when the system starts up, I get an error 0 x 57 for toshiba power saver. Even when I reinstalled ver 7.03.02.I from toshiba Web site the problem remains.

  Thanks in advance

  Hi maxco,.

  About its pilot I n don't know why you're getting a blue screen with the latest version, but I advise to use the preinstalled version of Toshiba recovery disc. So try a point-to-point previous system restore.

  Driver LAN and Toshiba Power Saver, you can download from the official site. Relocation of these tools should work!

• Satellite L20-101: I think as 667 Mhz module runs only with 266 Mhz

  Hello

  I bought 2 x 1024Mo DDR2-RAM for my L20-101.
  First I tried 533 MHz, but the laptop does not work with them, so I bought the
  Version of 667 MHz.
  CPU - Z says that the FSB:DRAM - ratio is 1:2 If the two are in fact run with just 266 MHz.

  I've updated the BIOS with the latest version of the Toshiba-home page, but nothing has changed.

  So finally, my questions:
  1 perhaps CPU - Z is false (I don't think so...), are there any other good programms to check the parameters of memory?

  2. If the values in the program are correct: where can I change the value of the report? Is it possible to see more than a few settings in the BIOS or is it a rider?

  Thanks for your help

  Hello

  First of all it is important to mention that the Satellite L20-101 supports a FSB of 533 MHz.
  So the DDR2 400/533 256 MB (PA3389U - 1 M 25) and DDR2 400/533 memory modules 512 MB (PA3412U - 1 M 51) should work and are 100% compatible!

  If you use the module of 667 Mhz, it runs only at 533 Mhz due to the limitation of the front side bus.

  In addition, I think you have misunderstood something.
  Here are the modules DD2 and so the CPU - Z recognizes the speed of the modules as 266 MHz (2 x 266 = 532 Mhz)
  If everything seems to be ok!

  PS; You can also use the other tool called Everest home edition. It s a freeware and very useful to run a diagnosis system and equipment

• Satellite L20-101 - very low sound

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba laptop Satellite L20-101, Windows XP (Service Pack 3). Yesterday, the sound of my laptop started to play very very low.

  Drivers audio (conexant AC-link audio) seems to work fine, and I'm all set to maximum volume.
  It was sudden. One moment he was working well, and the next time I start it the sound was strangely low.

  I don't know if it's a hardware problem, or if she could we have resolved to restore the entire system with the recovery CD (I prefer not to do so).

  Any ideas? Any help?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I think you should check the sound volume using the headphones.
  If the headphones work correctly the problem might be related to internal speakers.

  But to be honest it is really not easy to say what causes this problem as I said can be faulty speaker but you should also check all possible settings and perhaps a new OS reinstall would also be a good idea.

  It would be useful to know if the sound issue would persist using the laptop with clean, factory setting.

• Satellite L20-101: Question on battery & BIOS password

  Dear Sir or Madam:

  I have a Toshiba laptop satellite L20-101, so can u please answer my questions below.

  Is it better for the battery life to always stay connected to an electrical outlet when possible, or charge the battery and then use it until it needs to be recharged again? I mean what is best for the life of the battery, and I need to know if stay connected to AC power affects the battery life.

  How can I set a password for the laptop not windows? Because when I enter BIOS setup and set a password for user and supervisor. He just ask me about this password when I try to login to Setup again, but it is still continuous to the windows boot without asking me about a password.

  What should I do?

  Kind regards

  Hello

  The fact is that you can charge/discharge the battery about 500 times.
  After this period, the battery will lose performance.
  More recent laptops and batteries use the latest technology of load.
  But I recommend to remove the battery, if you work on the DC for a long time.
  In this case, you can extend the life of the battery and the performance

  If you want to set the BIOS password and it should appear at the beginning, you must activate the password at startup option in the BIOS.

• Satellite L20-101: need drivers for videos, audio etc.

  I just reinstalled the operating system (win xp home) on a satellite L20-101 and I realized that I have no cd of drivers for the laptop. The following are marked with problems in hardware devices (Panel): Audio controller, modem, SM Bus controller, PCI controller, USB controller, and video controller. Anyone know what to do or where I can find these drivers? What I found on the toshiba site has not helped me.
  Thank you

  HI Dan,.

  Have you installed the operating system from the Toshiba CD/DVD or is it a complete installation on the Microsoft product CD?

  Kind regards

• Satellite L20-101: Question about memory PC2-4300 and PC2-4200 of mixture

  Hello

  I have Toshiba Satellite L20-101. He took 512 MB RAM (PC2-4300). Today, I added another module of RAM but this new module is PC2-4200. Is there something wrong with that? The two modules are DDR2 and 533 MHz and 512 MB.

  Hi Pawel,

  In principle, there is no problem with the mixture of slightly different types of RAM modules, but normally the total RAM will run at the speed of the slowest module. When your notebook detects the right amount of RAM from two sticks then it don't will don't... no problem.

  Hello

  I didn t find exactly the information concerning this oldie but I found some nice details about Sam 2455.
  It of very similar to the European Sat 2450-xxx but the 2455 Sat is an American model.

  Compatible WiFi cards are:

  PA3273U-1MPC Wireless LAN Card 802 Kit. 11a / b (Atheros)

  I think that the miniPCI Wlan Card slot is hidden somewhere under the keyboard.
  So to access this slots the keyboard must be removed first.
  Usually it of fixed by 2 screws that are hidden under the plastic thinking.

  PS: the WLan miniPCI card must be connected to the WLan antenna.
  There are two wires (black and white). A white cable normally goes to the HAND and a black at the entrance to THE

• How to use on the Satellite 2430-101 S-Video port?

  Hi all!

  I don't know if I'm in the right section... I have a second hand S Satellite 2430-101 and use Microsoft Windows XP. Unfortunately I can't use the s-video output, because I do not know, how should be done. Quite simply, do not attach the s-video cable to the TV worked. What do I need to enable something in Notepad? Thank you in advance

  Hello

  As Nicky said if the unit is pre-installed with recovery CD, you can use the FN + F5 key combination and switch to the external display or TV. Check also display properties > settings > advanced > nView. Control the clone and device settings option. Under device settings, you can find the device selection option.

  Good bye

• Satellite L20-101: can't see my WLan access point

  Hello world

  I have a L20-101. It worked well until we change our AP with 802n Apple AP again. I can see any other network, but I can't see mine.
  Any idea?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Yes, I have an idea ;) How about you change the WLan card?
  Seems that the new access point is not compatible with the wireless network for laptop card.
  Maybe the minPCI wireless network card does not support the standard wireless access point.

  What do you think?

• Satellite L20 - 101-, the fan won't turn on when starting.

  Hello!

  I found that the fan on my L20 lights during startup (for the first few seconds). All started about 3 weeks ago. Sometimes it can be sometimes not. Than you think. Can be a serious problem? Perhaps it is caused by a weather? In the BIOS I chose "performance" mode

  L20 - 101, Pentium M (1.73), Intel GMA915, 1 GB of RAM

  ;)

  Hello

  I don t think that this could be a serious problem!
  Usually, the fan starts to turn if a temperature level has been reached.
  The temperature inside the laptop depends on the use of the laptop

  You can also consult the laptop for dust and debris fans. Dust inside the laptop may have a bad influence on cooling performance

  But do not worry, everything seems to be ok ;)

• Impossible to use WLan on Satellite A10 PSA10A

  Hello. I can't get my wifi working. I look in Device Manager and that you have no c no matter what wireless network connection.

  does anyone know if

  Toshiba Satellite A10
  Model PSA10A-3V1KK number
  Serial number: 54059282

  even had a built-in wireless network card.

  There is nothing in the pc card slot. When I turn the communication wireless turn on, the light is not on.

  Hello

  The WLan card is not available or only as an option on some laptops Satellite A10.
  This means that the laptop has been delivered without WLan minPCI card but it could be possible to improve it with the internal wireless Mini-PCI network card!

  Due to your description, I assume that your laptop is ready WLan but the card is not installed, and therefore you cannot connect to any wireless LAN.

  Install the good minPCI card Wlan on this laptop and you will be able to use the WLan ;)

  Wireless network cards compatible minPCI are:
  PA3212U-4MPC (Agere 802. 11b)
  -PA3273U-2MPC (802. 11a / b).

• Cannot use WLAN on Satellite P100 when encryption is enabled

  My new P100-240 connects to the internet via my router Belkin MIMO cable and wireless without problem if I enable WEP security. If I enable security either 64 or 128-bit, then while the router connects to the laptop I can't access the internet, using the repair option does not work either!

  So now when you use the wireless installation to use no security on my network, or else I am unable to browse the internet. It is not ideal because you never know who wish to give use a connection high speed free wireless!

  Hello

  In this case the WLan driver update should solve these problems.
  My brother could not connect to the internet using the WiFi network at home.
  The signal from the router was strong enough, but IE did not show all Web sites.

  I updated the driver and it was the turn of magic ;)

  Hey

  I bought satellite L30-105 PSL33E today and installed Windows XP on it. But now I have this problem that he won't? t install the wireless adapter. In Device Manager, I have an Ethernet card but I can not install. I tried to use all the drivers on this side, but nothing has worked. Any suggestions?

  Hello

  do you know what wireless adapter do you have? And you are sure that you have a card installed wireless (sorry for the stupid question)?

  It would be useful to know what wireless chipset is on your installed wifi card, then we can find the suitable driver for your wireless card.

  Would appreciate some comments that we can solve this issue.

• The screen is empty, my used to start Satellite

  I was in the middle of a game, when my screen went to a gray striped screen and my computer would not respond. I turned off and restarted and the screen then began to Flash the screen scratched, and now he won't answer when it is turned. Power light is on, but the screen is black.

  What should I do?

  For me his situation clear: the bulk of material s notebook (perhaps graphics card or motherboard) has started to malfunction.
  I guess that the replacement of parts only would help you get the laptop running again.
  I think that the technician should check the laptop first to understand what part is the troublemaker.
