Seeing white on Satellite Pro A200

The screen of my computer (Satellite Pro A200 - PSAE7) became white and will not normalize. This happens as soon as the boot. However, other processes are underway normally. Currently, I have to rely on an external monitor or LCD projector to allow me to continue my work.

What could be wrong and what can do?

Hey,.

> Currently I have to rely on an external monitor or LCD projector to allow me to continue my work.
This means that an external monitor works properly, no?

Well, there are two possible reasons: either the internal LCD screen is defective or LCD cable but the graphics card and the software are ok if everything works on an external monitor.

You see a picture if you move the internal screen a little? So, you can check if there is a bad connection. If you are familiar with the disassembly of the laptop, you can open Notepad and check the connection also.

An alternative you can also ask a maintainer approved assistance. Disassembly of the laptop is not a problem for guys so just get in contact with them. ;)

  • Operating system to load BIOS for Satellite Pro A200

    Hello

    I have a PSAE4E - 03300WEN Satellite Pro A200 with V5.30 BIOS and Windows 7 SP1 32 bit.
    I improved the T2330 CPU to T8100 and thought to update the BIOS for increased functionality.
    But in the Toshiba download page, I get the following 3 options:

    2.60 - WIN32 this Bios is only compatible for portable computers with Windows Vista! (32-bit only!)
    2.60 - WIN64 this Bios is only compatible for portable computers with Windows Vista! (64-bit only!)
    5, 60 - WIN this Bios is NOT compatible for notebook computers equipped with Windows Vista!

    And the question is...
    What about Windows 7? I should stick to V5.30 or go to a newer version? :-/

    See you soon!

    > I improved the T2330 CPU to T8100 and thought to update the BIOS for increased functionality.

    First of all laptop manufacturers (any manufacturer it is) don t support CPU updates.
    Of course, you can replace the CPU but it's your own risk.

    But what I mean is that updates of BIOS don't provide additional functionality or improves which would increase the functionality after upgrade CPU and this means that the BIOS update is not necessary to obtain better performance even after upgrade CPU.

    However, certain phrases on your BIOS question:
    5.60 BIOS seems to be released for portable computers running Win XP:

    Other versions of BIOS (v2.60 32-bit and 64-bit) are released for Vista systems I guess that this version should be compatible with Win 7 since its more similar to Vista to Win XP

    However, you changed the processor and consequently the hardware configuration is different now, I can't say for sure if the BIOS update would be the best option in this case

  • Satellite Pro A200 failing to connect with iphone via wifi hotspot

    My apologies if I get some of the jargon wrong, but I'm pretty useless when you want IT emits.

    I have a Satellite Pro A200 and had problems connecting to various wifi connections.
    The computer could see the wifi connection and connect to it, but I wasn't able to connect to the internet.

    The question of the Office was arranged by our IT support guy (security settings on the new router we too complex for my PC or something like that), but he has not been able to solve the problem of not being able to connect to my iphone to use the 'hotspot' via the wifi function.

    Someone there knows a way to solve this, or is it a simple fact of the laptop is too old and really need to update?

    Thanks for any help that anyone is able to give.

    > Someone know a way to fix this or is it a simple fact of the laptop is too old and really need to update?

    This isn't a question of the age of the laptop
    As far as I know not that support all mobile operators
    You should first ask your mobile operator if you can use the tethering service.

    If this would be supported in my mobile operator, then connect the iphone to the laptop first
    So that you have two options: you can use the BT connection (in this case check if computer laptop also supports BT) or via a USB cable that came with the iPhone.

    (PS: as far I know to attach is supported by iOS3.0 and higher)

    After that the iphone was connected to the laptop, you must activate the tethering on iphone.
    Under settings of-> network, you should see the option internet tethering it must be enabled.
    Now you should be able to see that in the Network & Center sharing control panel.

  • Satellite Pro A200 - Power LED lights in pink

    Hello world

    Lit up power has LED (2nd right) on my satellite pro A200 (PSAE4E-00T004EN) pink solid when it should be blue. It doesn't seem to be any other problems though, just the pink led.

    What it means and why it was on solid rose?

    I looked in the forum and all other Toshiba and technical sites that I can find, there is no mention of what I see in the manual either, and unfortunately I have not yet found an answer.
    I turned off, unplugged and rebooted, but no change.

    Thanks much for any help.
    RD

    As far as I know, satellite Pro A200 is older model laptop so I want to know is this Rose LED from the first day or what?

    As far as I know when the laptop is on which led should be blue, but when the laptop is in stand-by mode it flashes yellow or pink maybe on your laptop.

  • Satellite Pro A200 does not recognize the hard drive, XP Pro

    When I try and load XP Pro SP3 (32 bit) it will not install because it doesn't have SATA drivers. I downloaded the drivers and have an external floppy drive to install drivers by pressing F6. My question is the machine is listed as 64-bit and XP Pro is 32-bit. Choose the drivers ICH8M 32 or 64 bits. IE is the 32 or 64 bit on ICH8M see hardware or operating system.

  • Satellite Pro A200 cannot connect to the wireless network

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro A200 and Tuesday night I was able to connect to a wireless network. I received an update, rebooted and now it doesn t seem to work.

    I can see the wireless networks available via the Toshiba Radar but cannot connect to my usual wireless network.
    Also, the wireless network icon disappeared from my system tray and if I go to Control Panel/network connections, I can't even view available networks because there is no option to do so.

    Any ideas?
    the FN/F8 will work?
    Help! Please, I beg you!

    Have you tried using System Restore and restore the operating system on time earlier?
    Maybe this will remove the update installed, and you can again use the WLAN.

  • Satellite PRO A200 power issue - will not start

    Toshiba Satellite PRO A200 (model PSAE4E-00U004EN)
    OS Vista Business (not that get us here!)

    OK, here's the problem: battery led (blue), AC disconnected. Turn on (absolutely no hard disk activity)

    See attached picture + 30 seconds of video...

    Image = http://i37.tinypic.com/2lv00ow.jpg
    7 MB video = http://tinypic.com/player.php?v=294ns6r&s=4

    Here's what I tried...

    Removing the battery
    Remove and put back in place the two sticks of RAM
    Withdrawal of one of the sticks of RAM, a start in (and vice versa)
    Withdrawal of the DVD player
    Hold the power button for 20 seconds to evacuate the residule power, then plug back
    Holding the Fn key and pressing the power button
    Holding the 0 key and pressing the power button
    Still nothing...

    I hope you guys can help out me? Tomorrow I'm going to disassemble the laptop, maybe there is a blocked fan and this is a heat issue? or otherwise perhaps the power button is somehow disconnected?

    I downloaded and printed the disassembly instructions
    (http://www.irisvista.com/tech/laptops/toshiba-satellite-a205/laptop-disassembly-1.htm)

    Please help me!

    Hello

    Looks like a serious problem.
    But for the first time, try this:

    -Remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter
    -Wait about 20-30 min
    -Reconnect the two parts and try to turn on the laptop

    If it is not possible to power the laptop then the problem must be related to a serious hardware problem and only the ASP would be able to help you and to see what's exactly wrong with the machine.

  • Windows 7 & Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE7)

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE7). I recently upgraded my laptop to
    Windows 7. Where can I download the drivers compatible with Windows 7?
    I already have the Web site check toshiba and I do not find anything.

    Thanks in advance

    I agree with sascha.
    I think that Win 7 drivers must be released in the near future, because Windows 7 drivers have been published for other series
    You can also visit the Toshiba page we obtain some drivers Win 7 for Sat A205 series.
    The A205 is very similar to A200.

  • Additional SATA connector need for Satellite Pro A200

    Hello

    I own Satellite Pro A200 PC series laptop and I have room for additional hard drive. I don't have a different connector on the card but I see pins to add the connector.
    Same BIOS shows that there are two SATA ports. There is place for ssd 1.8 ". Anyone know what is the part No. This connector so that I can weld down another connector.

    Thanks in advance,

    Alen

    > I don't have a different connector on the card but I see pins to add the connector
    I assume you mean on the connector like this:

    [Pic 1 | http://www.newmodeus.com/dv9000/HPDV9000%20copy.jpg]

    In General if the second HARD drive Bay is equipped with a few pins where the connector could be connected, then you should be able to use additional HARD disk

    I think that the right connector can be ordered from Toshiba ASP or some online resellers of spare parts for laptop

  • Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE4E) failure hard disk

    Hello

    My computer is Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE4E) purchased Oct 2007, running Vista 32 bit. He was always a bit skittish and prone to crashing. The first time I ever did a Windows Update it projected blue, so I restored and never updated since.

    The other day it started to emit beeps during startup, and while I could then get into, I think that the hard drive has failed, because now it runs very slow and crashes.

    Think the forum that this laptop could never be made to be stable and reliable?

    The hard drive is hard to change? I do it myself.

    There the drive hard replacement somewhere online instructions?

    Should what model of hard drive I install?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Replacing the HARD drive is not difficult.
    HARD drive Bay must be placed at the bottom of the unit.
    You should see the drive Bay HARD fixed with a screw cover.
    Remove the screws and you will see the HARD drive

    To remove the HARD drive, remove the connectors

  • Are XP drivers before buying the Satellite Pro A200

    Hello

    I am trying to take a decision on which laptop Toshiba buy. One of the things I want to do is load XP on a partition. I'm trying so to ensure that the model that I buy, has XP drivers available. I am looking at a number of Satellite Pro A200 and one or two of P200. The problem is - on the Toshiba site, you get in the drivers and you section A200, but it doesn't give you a model number, e.g. 1YY or 1EE. So, how can I know whether or not the model that I am looking to buy has drivers available.

    Also, drivers seem all to be there. For example, the drivers for the modem are available for a whole country, for Vista, but not for XP. But XP is available for most of the components. On some models, I don't see a driver for XP listed for the DVD player.

    Help, please! How can I make sure that I don't end up with the model where I can't load XP?

    Hello

    The European driver Toshiba page provides the drivers for the laptop only computer series and not for single units.
    This means that you should check the Satellite A200 series if you need no drivers (XP or Vista).
    If you need the serial number, then google for Satellite Pro A200 - 1YY and you should get several hits providing a PSAE4E-xxxxx number.

    > Please help! How can I make sure that I don't end up with the model where I can't load XP?
    Is that not all the XP drivers are available for all series of laptops.
    In the worst case, you will need to find the XP drivers XP drivers compatible chip manufacturing sites and 3 third-party sites.

    But in most cases, all current XP drivers are published on the page of the driver.
