Slow reaction of the media on Win XP buttons - Satellite A300-1MX

Hello world

I bought a Satellite A300-1MX about 1 month ago. I had XP installed on it. I installed all the drivers, etc.

The multimedia keys, however, are a little slow in their reaction, meaning: I press one of them (e.g. READING), then it turns on and outside as normally (at full speed), but then he only PLAYS the song after maybe 3-4 seconds.

The problem is that I've lived twice more that these media buttons reacted very quickly (so normal speed), and only two times this happened was when, once I played a PC GAME, and once I was using another program.

So it was almost like they wud answer quickly only if traore to be little RAM used, or some processor used. Do not know well, that's my theory.

Maybe somebody has a solution for how to get the media buttons respond quickly (normally) and not only after 3-4 seconds.

PS: I use the windows media player for media buttons.

Thank you very much!!

Hello

It is not easy to say what the problem is here. In my view, it is also important that opinion may be different on the speed, how he should respond. I put t know what you mean with slow or fast, but if the player has already opened the music should start playing immediately.
When you press play and wait for the application to open can only takes a few seconds to start, and it is nothing unusual.

Another important point is preinstalled WXP. Have you noticed that normal speed with Vista preinstalled?

  • Captivate 5 - extremely slow reaction of the system for all actions

    I had 5 Captivate on my Windows XP Pro machine since July 2010.  I used heavily until March 2011, but it used VERY little since then (now Sept 2011).

    When I started yesterday at C5, it has been extremely slow in opening the application.  When I open a file I created in early 2011, stored on my C drive and less than 2 MB, it takes a few minutes to open the file.  Any action that I take in C5 takes MINUTES that the system to answer - if clicking on a slide to see in detail, by selecting an action, go to the next page, select an option in the menu bar - EACH action takes minutes to the point where even when I wanted to just remove some extraneous slides in a recent record It took me over an HOUR to do.  Curiously, she had no problem recording the actions of a site web - but put it up to C5 so that I can see and edit the file took minutes.

    What is happening and how to fix this?  Should I uninstall this version and reinstall?

    I also C5 on my MacBook Pro and it gives me problems now too - he actually told me that I had to re - install...

    Thank you!

  • A few questions after the downgrade of Win 7 on Satellite U940 - 11L

    Hello

    friend of mine bought the Toshiba Satellite U940 - 11L which had Windows 8 on it, due to some reasons that she wanted to have Windows 7 installed on it, which was pretty easy.

    Trouble came with the installation of the Symantec touchpad, after installing the drivers, it worked for about 10-15 minutes but then it stopped working.

    Tried to uninstall and install again but no luck, found a few discussions where it was suggested to remove all the devices, remove the battery and the power cord.

    Press the power button for 15 seconds and then power back on but still not lucky (I wasn't in the restoration of the default settings of the Bios I did not any change it outside disabling secure boot and replacing UEFI CSM that was needed to run win 7 on it).

    Tried about 4 different sources when it comes to the drivers but still does not work. I checked the Device Manager Dev but see no conflict, and it shows that the unit works fine but the problem persists. Please note that the drivers were specific to windows 7.

    Please if you have any suggestions we would greatly appriciate it.

    On another note, I'm not able to install the bluetooth it (HW ID shows as ACPI\TOS6205), I tried to install it several times but no luck because it always shows as unknown device in the dev Manager. The driver that I use is Bluetooth Filter Driver Package as info.

    Also, the computer is slower than it was with Windows 8, I suspect the reason for this is the fact that the installation of win 7 I accidentally erased part of the hybrid drive SSD (the size was 11.2 GB if I remember correctly, yes silly me...). I wasn't looking for a while on the net to see if there is a way to fix it but no luck so far.

    Thank you very much for your time and your suggestions!

    With regard to the question of the touchpad.
    To my knowledge, the touchpad should work even if the Synaptics touchpad driver has not been installed. Windows system contains own driver that control the touchpad and provide standard settings. Of course after installing the Synapatics driver, you should get a few more options and features more touchpad.

    I recommend you to download the driver for the touchpad from Synaptics driver page and install it again: http://www.synaptics.com/resources/drivers

    With regard to the problem of BT.
    The laptop supports WLan Intel (Intel Wireless-N 2230) card that supports BT connectivity. Bt driver filter pack is ONLY necessary if you laptop would use an Atheros WLan card or Realtek WLan card. For the Intel WLan modules such package of filter is NOT necessary. To get BT to work, you must install the battery Toshiba BT!

  • Question about the installation of Win XP on Satellite Pro P200

    Hello

    I have a lot of problems with Vista. First it took me a week to install my printer WiFi. (sollution: install local lpt1 as the printer, change port properties en gives a location network (computer/printername).)
    Last problem: vista give no right to copy my USB hd protable with xp files.

    Is there anyone with experience in the installation of win xp on this laptop. And is it possible to tell me the steps that you have been taken to do so.
    Are there concerns as none have some drivers, things that do not work or problems with sata hd.

    Thank you

    Luke

    Hello

    It's a difficult topic-> XP on Vista machines.

    First: Yes, you can install XP on it because all the important factors are available (VGA, SATA, wireless, XP BIOS, BLUETOOTH) and that should be enough.

    Because your computer has a BIOS for Vista (I guess there a) Please install the BIOS XP first and then start the installation of XP. In the case that your HARD drive is not recognized then you need to install the SATA driver during the installation of windows XP. The procedure is described in the statement of the Satellite L40-> XP installation, so if you want to install and problems SATA (HDD, not during the XP installation), you must check the installation instructions for Windows XP for a SATELLITE L40!

    If you have additional questions, I recommend allows you to place your question here before doing something that may stop your nerves later. :)

  • Can I back up my files on the partition of 'E' of my Satellite A300-1EC

    I bought a new laptop Satellite A300-1EC.
    I managed to complete the full installation of the system.

    When I check my drive I don't find that two drives 'C' and 'E '.
    Drive C is for the operating system, and 'E' is the data with a record HDD1 disk.

    Now if I want to save my normal files like in word, excel etc... that is the drive to back up my files.

    Savings in 'E' will affect the operation of computers.

    best regards to all

    Hello

    I assume that the E partition contains data that are necessary to start the Toshiba HDD recover.

    I think you could save your files on the partition E too, but you shouldn't change t or t should remove all the files and data that already exist on the E partition.

  • Tecra Z50-A-11 q - slow start after the installation of Win 8.1

  • Express the Media Player (EMP) recovery disk - satellite P105-S6024

    I have a problem with my on my new machine satellite P105-6024 express Media Player software.

    As I bought it, everything works fine. But then, I did the partitions on my HARD drive and I instaled all the software recovery disc. And everything looks earlier and work properly but Express Media Center. It seems that it is not installed. I found the special Express Media Player restore disk but I don't know how to use it. (I am a novice complite). As I knew EMP is a linux-like software and it is not visible in Windows. And I know that there was a small special partition dedicated to this application. This partition has been deleted. And I'm not sure that it is possible to install EMP once more on my laptop. How can I use the EMP recovery disk? If I just run in the windows environment I see just a few files - but their execution, nothing is happen. I'd appreciate a small manual.

    Hello

    I found this on the web:

    Installation Guide step by step for Express Media Player and Windows XP Recovery on two partitions in Expert mode:

    (1) all DATA on HARD drive will BE DESTROYED IRREVERSABLY (it's serious!)
    (2) install Express Media Player:
    Boot from the recovery Express Media Player CD
    --> use [delete all Partitions] (can be on the left side of the menu for older versions of reader).
    THIS ERASES THE ENTIRE HARD DRIVE!
    (3) boot with the Windows XP Recovery CD, go to expert mode and exit the "TOSHIBA Recovery Tool" (version OEM Ghost) using menuitem "Quit."
    (4) you can use fdisk.exe or gdisk.exe - I'll show the syntax here gdisk
    (its easier to describe and there are a lot of descriptions for FDISK on the net)
    (5) now, we create two partitions (size of 50%: 50%-playersize).
    --> At the DOS prompt, type:
    Gdisk 1 /cre /pri /sz:50%-> creates a primary partition 1
    Gdisk 1 /cre /ext-> creates an extended partition 2
    Gdisk 1/log /cre-> creates a 2nd logical partition
    Gdisk 1/p:1-> partionion set 1 active /act
    (6) now reboot with Windows XP Recovery CD, go to expert mode
    (7) menu use: Local\Partition\From Image, choose image GHO menu
    (8) there should only be ONE partition available source:
    1 primary DiskLoad NTFS 07...-> pick this one!
    (9) Select destination disk (there are also only one)
    1 basic...-> pick this one!
    (10) now you need to choose the destination partition - there should be three to choose!
    (11) select:
    1 primary 0C Fat32 without name...-->! BE SURE TO CHOOSE THIS ONE!
    (12) to confirm that you want to write on this partition
    "(13)" TOSHIBA Recovery Tool "is unpack and install the operating system
    (14) subsequently Windows XP and Media Player Express are installed

    Hope this will help you. Good luck!

  • Eats CPU - Win XP on Satellite A300 - SATA HDD slow

    Hello

    I just got a brand new A300-1The for my work.

    Because we need to install XP and not Vista, I formatted the beast.

    After a long afternoon chasing all the drivers, it seems that I always have problems.
    When I initiate a transfer of files between the two discs or from the local network, cpu load goes up at abnormal rates (50%-70%).

    I suspect that there is a problem with the disk controller
    Now, to make the installation work, I had to go into the BIOS and set the controller SATA to "compatibility".

    Could be the source?

    Thanks in advance

    OH and BTW: I tried to install the disk on the Toshiba site manager, but he says that my computer does not have the system requirements

    Hello

    I don t think that your HARD drive would be responsible for the higher CPU usage.
    What you could do is to start the Task Manager while file transfer and could check what process or application stresses the CPU.

    I think that this is a possibility to find out what causes this high CPU usage.
