• Unable to connect to my router Belkin WLAN and Satellite A200 L300

  Hi all

  This is my first thread ever so please be gentle with me
  I have Satellite A200 2 years now and I am having some problems. All of a sudden I can not connect to my modem wireless (belkin).

  I see my two neighbors modems but not full mine force in the configfree radar
  I took my A200 to work and it can connect with no problem.
  I have a L300 also now the confusing part is that it will connect at home, work and can only see 1 of my neighbouring modems sometimes but mine is full forcibly in configfree radar

  I'm simply not see something like this would point to any problems with my modem but also no problem with the A200 as it will connect to the work.
  Any help would be appreciated
  Thank you

  First try to reboot your router.
  As I see WLAN works well on your Satellite A200 and I guess there is a problem with the WLAN settings.

  Restart your router and check the connectivity again.

• RAM upgrade and Satellite A200 - 19K graphic card memory:

  Hi all

  The Satellite A200 - 19K came with 1024 MB memory system. It's only 2 cards of memory of 512 MB or just 1 memory card 1024Mo in the system of the laptop? I would like to add another a 1024 MB of RAM, is that the slot more be available?

  The second question is on the graphics card from NVIDIA. The product specification mentions the graphics adapter as below...

  Manufacturer: NVIDIAî
  type: NVIDIAî Geforcea? ¢ GB 7300 supporting Turbocachea? ¢ technology
  memory: 64 MB dedicated VRAM (up to 335 MB of total available graphics memory using Turbocachea? ¢ technology with 2 GB of system memory)
  memory type: DDR video RAM (resp. video RAM DDR and DDR system memory combined)
  connected bus: PCI Express 16 x

  My question is, after upgrade from 1024 MB to 2048 MB system memory, is that the card NVIDIA GeForce will be automatic upgrade from 64 MB to 256 MB for graphics memory?

  TAHNKS A LOT!

  Hello
  >, It's only 2 cards of memory of 512 MB or just 1 memory card 1024Mo in the system of the laptop
  I think that the laptop came with a module of memory 1 GB and the second Bank should be free.

  Now something about the graphics card.
  Well, the graphics card GeForce Go 7300 supports own graphics memory 256 MB (no shared memory!)
  But it also allows a dedicated memory.
  This amount of memory is variable and depends on the available main memory.

  I think that everything runs automatically and you will not need to change the settings to assign this memory dedicated after main memory upgrade

• Windows XP and Satellite A200 PSAF5E

  I am trying to install windows XP on EQUIUM A200 PSAF5E, but I can't. I had followed the link:

  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?MessageID=107596

  and according to the instructions it looks very easy, but the link to download the drivers, download an EXE file instead the INF file. I can't create a new CD with NLite boot because I can not extract the INFs to compilate in a new CD.

  Someone knows how to do...

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Don t use all websites 3rd party SATA driver download.
  Either you need to download the European of Toshiba on-site or on the Intel site Intel Matrix Storage Manager directly.

  On the Toshiba page, you will find the Intel storage Manger under
  Computer laptop satellite - series Equium A Equium A200 (i.e. PSAE8) Storage Manager

  This package contains the INF files

• Issue of Satellite A200 - 1 GB PSAE6 Flashcards - serial number is invalid

  Hi all.

  I need help with something for my sore head... :D

  Today, I had to turn to the zone updates and to see a newer version for the Flashcard, so I donwloaded and install, but now start problems...

  at the start of the installation it says that need to uninstall the old version, then ok I accept, then restart and exec that the flashcards program installation, but now I get error "serial number is invalid '. I come here looking for a solution and read that I have to reinstall the VAP (I had installed the version of vap-20080109135106).

  Before the error windows if poster, a DOS window opens and closes automatically with this message from command line: "connected to the ROOT\CIMV2 namespace", while the error comes: S

  Again once I uninstall the VAP, restart, clean with ccleaner, reboot, reinstall the VAP, restart, install the most recent Flashcards... surprise and... again the same error... The serial number is not valid

  I tried all the steps once again and get the error more another time.

  For the third test, I just installed the VAP and seen that the included flashcards have been installed and working... but not so easy... they don't work when you press the combination FN + Fx only works if I move the mouse over them... exactly the only combinations of work are the FN + F10 & FN + F11.

  The FN key works, because as I said before the two combinations and the green light when you press ok blinks.

  So now I have a VAP flashcards who (not upgrading) works only with the mouse or touchpad click. If I press FN + something nothing happens (except the F10 F11 keys).

  Goin whats here? I am really frustrated with this happen.

  PS: I am sure that the version of updates are just pattées portable model...
  I also tried to install version olders flashcards and PPV that I had on a backup driver cd and nothing happens, the same situation and erros... (FSCC-20080307104403 & FSCC-20070809135810)

  Please I need something :D

  Please anyone who can help?

  Hello

  If you use SATA drivers then the SATA in the BIOS mode option must be on AHCI.
  If you n t use drivers SATA you will need to set compatible mode.

  Here's a great description how to add SATA drivers

• Increases the speed of the fan and freeze of windows 7 on my Satellite A200

  I am using Toshiba Satellite A200-24 of (PSAE3E) for 3 years now. It came pre-installed with Vista. Last year, I went to Winows 7 Ultimate. Everything was fine.

  4 months ago I switched to Windows 7 Enterprise n. hated not see Windows Media Player in it. Now the problem is, during the video online streaming (not always the case), my fan speed arise, so do its sound, and my hard drive gets real busy. 10 seconds later, my window is frozen. In fact, its not responding because of the excessive use of hard drive.

  I have read many articles on the internet, many users of toshiba is facing the same problem when using Windows 7. But I could not find a solution to this.

  This problem started about 3 months ago, and then for sometimes, he stopped himself. now, he has started 3 weeks ago. If anyone can help me on this issue, I'm more than grateful.

  Here are my specs:

  Windows 7 Enterprise n Service rate 1
  1.73 dual core
  RAM 3 GB
  75 + 75 GB hard drive partitions

  I guess the CPU usage goes to 100% and result is freezing. Can you identify the background processes that may be responsible for this?
  > I have read many articles on the internet, many users of toshiba is facing the same problem when using Windows 7. But I could not find a solution to this.
  Your opinion is too general. Lot of Toshiba users have many different problems with Windows7. My laptop also comes with Vista for a year I use Win7 32 bit and everything works perfectly.
  > This problem started 3 months ago...
  What complicated the situation as a whole. What have you done 3 months ago? Have you changed some settings, installed additional software that may be responsible for this?

  Unfortunately, it is not easy to help them in this situation.

• Satellite A200 - 1 m 8 slower when you use Power Saver and AC adapter

  HIII

  I have a toshiba Satellite A200 - 1 m 8. Windows XP Pro Sp3

  When the pc is running on AC adapter / normal CC it works correctly and quickly, and when I unplug the adapter and run the pc on battery, that it doesn't...

  But here the problem arises when I reconnect the adapter again (the normal supply battery power switching) the speed of the computer goes down.
  It becomes more annoying and slow navigation, menu programs start running, etc...

  It is very sensitive... not a bit...
  I tried to change the controller to the built-in in windows power management and tests of the same case...
  The speed of the computer works properly...

  I guess the problem is with Toshiba PowerSaver.
  Version is: Toshiba PowerSaver 7.03.07.C

  Concerning

  Hello

  I m not quite sure what could be the reasons for this problem but as far as I know, you can assign the different parameters of basic installation of Power Saver, which could affect the performance of the laptops.
  For example; Control method of the CPU, the processing speed of the CPU, cooling method.

  Please check what power profile was chosen after that the AC adapter is plugged in and if necessary modify some parameters mentioned above.

• While the graphics of games download scrambled and freezes Satellite A200-1j0

  Hello

  I have a problem of great graphics with my laptop. Its a Satellite A200-1j0 with HD 2600 running vista 32 bit.
  When I start a game, only the graphics are scrambled and the nb freezes.

  I have been using the nb for casual games, since I bought it (1 year ago) without any problem.
  But a few days, a few games (hl2, far cry 2) started my freezing system rarely and at random times.
  Today, I've updated the drivers from the Toshiba site and it got worse.

  It happens now in almost all games, and, as soon as the graphics appear after loading screens.
  Windows will run without problems, however.

  Here are some pictures of the laptop when the graphics get scrambled

  http://I487.Photobucket.com/albums/rr237/doomlover_gr/DSC00104.jpg

  Doesn't look good I agree with Akuma.
  Check if the BIOS and driver graphics card to day helps.
  If that does not solve the graphics problem then ASP support is necessary.

• Update BIOS issue and on Satellite A200-1z3 FN key

  Dear all,

  Satellite A200-1z3

  I have the same problem as many of you already described here. After downgrading from Win XP, I discovered this part of the features enabled by the FN key don't work, for example FN + F2 FN + F6, FN + F7, FN + F8, FN + F9, FN + F12, FN + 1, FN + 2, FN + TAB.

  I read in this forum and found that you can solve this problem be reinstall BIOS. When I tried to download BIOS on site it requires Pass and Login which I don't have. If you have any suggestions to download it from there?

  If not, how I can activate keboard light FN + F2 and the scroll Lock FN + F9 without button FN button.

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  > When I tried to download BIOS on site requires Login and Pass that I n t I.
  Did you use the right page of the Toshiba driver?
  You story sounds strange for me because I have visited the Toshiba European page and choose your model. Satellite A200-1z3 PSAE3E.

  And I was able to download the BIOS 5, 60 - WIN.

  Then maybe you should try again I'm sure it'll work!

• Satellite A200 - freeze occasionally and fade to the white of the screen

  I have a satellite A200, bought new last year. Sometimes the computer crashes, the screen starts fading to white and darker horizontal and vertical lines appear on the screen. I pressed the power switch until it turns off so I can restart, but after the reboot, it works fine. Initially this has happened only rarely, but it's starting to happen more and more lately.

  It happens very suddenly and it makes no difference, what I'm doing at the time. Sometimes it does just after the market. Does anyone know why he could do that? I'm not very technically savvy, so I would appreciate if you could explain it to me in a way I could understand :)

  I heard of some people having the same problem and can be caused by faulty wiring in the monitor. If this is the problem is it likely to be covered by warrantly?

  Post edited by: Charlie Llama

  You also have this problem on an external monitor? If this isn't the case, it sounds like a problem internal monitor and I think that it should be replaced.

  If your laptop is still under warranty the repair should be free for you. So in your case I would contact the nearest ASP that you can find on the Toshiba site:

  Good luck!

• Satellite A200 freezes / restarts randomly on startup

  Hello

  I have Toshiba Satellite A200, Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 6.0.6002.
  Intel (r) Core (TM) 2 Duo CPU T5450 at 1.66 GHz
  Video ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2400 version = 8.380.0.0
  Audio version of Realtek High Definition Audio = 6.0.1.5406
  Network Marvell Yukon 88E8055 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller version = 10.0.4.3
  Intel (r) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection version = 11.5.0.32

  For the two weeks... my laptop randomly freezes / restarts... especially when it is started for the first time in the day OR after being in standby / hibernation of State for a few hours.
  Sometimes it gets stuck before we get to the login screen... sometimes shortly after... no certain activity seems to be related to this gel. And it's not freezing all the time... sometimes it restarts too. No blue screen.

  No new software installed, except regular updates of windows. No conflict in the device driver. I checked the website of toshiba for the latest drivers. BIOS had a newer version... So I installed which (2.5). But the problem has not disappeared.

  When the computer reboots, it works fine... I'm not able to find something to worry about in the event viewer. Start logging also came not to the top with a few errors. I also disabled the option restart automatically.

  Windows partition was low on space... only 6 GB left of allotted 40 GB... so I thought to backup and install from scratch... do that... all the updates that are installed during the next days... but my laptop is back to the same State. One thing I notice, is that now it takes longer after starting (and then restart) to connect to the wireless router. But this isn't a problem.

  Microsoft Fix It didn't help either... am looking for help to identify the cause and resolve it.

  Is there a conflict somewhere which surfaces while system is booting high / shortly after startup?

  Thank you in advance.

  > How we can say is that there is nothing wrong with the equipment? What else can a check?
  The new installation of the operating system has not helped. Right?
  So for me it looks like hardware related issue.
  I think the disk HARD or RAM (memory)

  The HARD drive can be easily verified. Download the drive diagnostic tool called HARD: Drive Fitness Test
  It s freeware tool and it allows you to scan the HARD drive and get details on possible malfunction.

  The diagnosis of RAM can be done easily. Of course, there are tools like memtest86 + and similar, but in my experience the results of the analysis are not always 100% right
  So, in that these cases it s always a good idea to test the laptop using new tested s RAM

  Hello

  It looks like a common problem with Vista.
  I read a lot of reviews and articles in various computer magazines on the Vista and gambling problems
  Several weeks ago, Microsoft released a patch that fixes some issues with the support of Multi GPU on Vista. This is useful for users who use the computer gamer with 2 GPU
  http://support.Microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3ben-us%3B936710

  Also, Microsoft has released patch which solves the problems with the use of virtual address space. It is a reason why some games crashed or didn't flow normally.

  Use of the virtual address in Windows games development space
  http://support.Microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3ben-us%3B940105&x=11&y=9

  I hope that helps!

  PS: on this page you will find an interesting discussion about the game on Vista OS
  078 http://www.Computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&articleId=9011 & pageNumber = 1

  I think that the new Vista Service Pack 1 will solve most of the new Vista bugs now the SP1 Beta is available.
  The final version should be out next month.

• Satellite A200-1SM is slow after installing Vista

  Hello.

  I have a problem with my Satellite A200-1sm computer.
  Yesterday I installed Alcohol 120% program and something happened.
  My computer stoped working and a restart and blue screen.

  After that, I installed the Windows Vista again and installed the driver.
  My processor is slow (before this happened was 3.8 after 4.6 and 4.5 memory after 2.7) and my memory is slow.

  Help

  Hello

  I installed the tool Alcohol 120% a few months ago too and as far as I know this software creates virtual drives and you can emulate max 31 readers.

  I m not 100% sure, but maybe this could be the reason for your BSOD issues possibly the software isn't 100% compatible with vista OS.

  However, after installation since the laptop recovery CD uses the factory settings and should work fine. I don t think that your laptop works done slower, is that Toshiba picture (from recovery CD) contains a large number of programs that regulates the functions of the laptop and run in the background of the OS. These processes need resources from the laptop, and so the Vista experience index may change.

  This is why I am 100% sure that your laptop is ok.

  You should visit the Websites of Microsoft and should read a little about this index, and how it works.

  Good bye
