Tecra 8100: Video-playing DVDs only with jerking / glisten under W2K

I can't play a normal DVD on my Tecra 8100 (P3 600 MHz, 256 MB RAM, Windows 2000 with SP4)
without convulsions. Already have try to copy the image of the DVD on the HARD drive and play directly from the
HDD - same result. Therefore, it is NOT a problem with the DVD drive, may be a problem
with the S3 S3 Savage/MX VGA-Cardinal display driver integrated V installed 5.12.1.7002.
Tested with PowerDVD 6 and VLC media player. Any special DVD playback software for the
8100 available? Please help, try several hours to solve this problem, already
talk with toshiba customer service!

Hello

Well, the Tecra 8100 is not a high-performance notebook and maybe it is not generally possible to watch DVDs jerking-free s.

But I think you should check several parameters before we abandon ;)
In order to check if DMA and not PIO mode is available and updated on the IDE controllers.

Check if you have installed the latest version of DirectX.
You said that you are using the latest version of the graphics driver. Well perhaps you will check this site:

Also check if the installation of some codex will help you:

  • Tecra 8100 - CPU max, DVD - ROM and BIOS update issues

    1. I have a 500 MHz processor on my 8100. I would like to upgrade to maximum capacity. I think it's 800 MHz since it is the highest, the series went to.
    But if it's 800 MHz, any Mobile PIII on this frequency do? Or should I check for special settings of the processor?

    2. I don't have a floppy, or ways to get drive one. And I'm not going to ebay one just for an update of the BIOS. Any ideas? A bootable CD with the files will do?

    3. What is the location of the DVD-ROM and what alternative models can I use? The 8200 went up to 8 x DVD - RW. Could I go further?

    Thank you. I hope that my post is OK like this instead of three different positions.

    1 take a look at the other Tecra 8100 models to determine which processors are compatible.

    2. I don't think that would work a bootable CD, you must follow a special procedure to update the BIOS and requires a floppy drive. If there is a version of Windows, you must use that instead.

    3 upgrade the DVD player can be difficult because you must use the correct master/slave settings, and it must have the same design of the façade of the original.

    Personally, I'm selling the laptop and buy a second hand faster one. It can work out to be cheaper.

  • Tecra 8100 white plus-ecran only starts

    I have a Tecra 8100 (disc hard 12 GB 700 MHz, 256 MB of memory) running Windows XP and Win 98 dual-boot. It was OK for ages but suddenly developed the following fault. Any help to heal would be great. When you turn it on, normally, the screen remains blank, the hard drive is ringing and the lights are on, on the front panel. No keyboard entries do start/start etc.

    When you press the off button, sometimes it'll just off as usual, at other times it will be bleep 30 times, then stop. Keep the power off button will require cutting as it should. Sometimes, lights up the screen and you can start up to Windows XP/WIN 98 etc but the PC freezes on the way to start, or when he gets there, you can't do more with it when this happens.

    The CMOS battery is down to 2.77 volts instead of the 3 volts, it should be, I took out memory, tried both sticks of memory in slots and nothing makes no difference. I think that it is an intermittent fault, but it's a common fault, like others on another site to help describe EXACTLY the same symptoms.

    I'm on an iMac, OS X 10.6.8 Intel Core i7 2.93 GHz, 8 GB of memory.

    I try to use the First CS5 (full version), which I am new to edit a raw video that was shot. Import the file (.mov files 590,1 MB) by double clicking, then I drag this file into the window of the observer.

    I click on the play button and the first time it plays for about a second, then at any time after that, he plays at the best prices. If I hold down the right arrow key it plays but it is extremely rough.

    I looked for solutions (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/642962?tstart=0) and I found a suggestion of update my drivers by a software update, after a reboot, what has not worked. Then I found a suggestion to try to reproduce the problem even after log you in as User Root , but I still have the same question as the User Root.

    I tried to do my editing in Final Cut Express and it worked fine, but because it's Express is a little limiting. I thought about a version of first full pro would be better.

    Is there anyone else out there with the other suggestions?

  • Re: Tecra A10 Fingerprint reader works only with IE 8

    I had different user names and passwords stored on several Web sites.
    IE7, I could use the fingerprint reader to enter the user name and passwords for those sites.

    Because Windows update installed IE8, the fingerprint system does not work in internet explore - it works normally for all other programs and logon.

    I figured out it must be something security in IE8, but cannot work out how to re - activate the fingerprint software in IE8.

    This question has been posted sever times here in the forum and it related to the question of the compatibility between the old handler access to fingerprint Truesuite, IE8 and Firefox 3
    As far as I know the most recent Truesuite access manager software v3.0 or higher should solve this problem.

  • Windows Media Player will only play a sound with no video .avi and .mov

    I started having a problem where the Windows Media Player will only play the audio portion of my .avi and .mov video files.

    These files were created by my FlipCam or my Sony Handycam.

    I never had problems until recently and think that it is due to some kind of Windows Update.

    Both my computer and my wife's computer had the same problem and we are both using Windows XP Home Edition.

    I apologize if this topic already on this forum.

    Thanks for any help and advice.

    CoDec = compressor decompressor.
    A program is used to compress the file. You then need to unpack the file to play, you need the codec used to compress the file to decompress it on your pc.
    You need DVD playing software installed to power the mpeg codec, or you can buy a codec to just run in media player.
    AVI is a wrapper and may well contain more than 800 different file types, it has 800 different codecs!  Thus, to read an avi file, you should know what codec was used to do and have that installed on your pc to read.
    DV.avi is made with the dv codec, divx.avi is made with the divx codec.
    Of course, that manufacturers make their codecs, you must make sure you have the latest being, to be able to read files made with it, so everything just because you downloaded the codec divx 12 months ago does not mean it will play files created with codecs of today!

    I hope this explains it is ok for you.

    It surprises me that you say that you have downloaded all the updates of altest, but are still running wmp9, where we are now on WMP11 for XP and 12 for win7.

    I would update my WMP version first.

    Here is a page that will tell you that the codecs are on your pc and who has access to WMP 11.
    http://www.myvideoproblems.com/tutorials/HowToFindCodecs.html

    Here is a page that will tell you how to know what codec was used to create the file that you are trying to watch and also if you have the right codec for it
    http://www.myvideoproblems.com/tutorials/AVIcodec.html

    It is generally accepted that the codec packs adding is a bad idea, so if you need a codec to read a certain file, google it's manufacturer and just install the one you need.

    I would work just on the pc at the same time when you found what the problem is, you can fix on the other 2.

    Need more help with this, just ask.

  • Crack speakers and buzz only with online video. In charge of the music and sound of the DVD fine

    I have a HP 15-r011dx laptop with windows 8.1 when on youtube or videos CNN, the speakers carack and pop. The ads CNN play before the story are very good as a DVD or my music loaded. I relly don't want to reinstall. I've had the computer for 3 weeks and I don't know if she was there from the beginning. I have updated all of HP, including the BIOS and tried another browser and adjusted the volume levels. Windows has made updates.

    Hello

    I have some other ideas, but it becomes more an environmental issue. Something (I couldn't say what) is causing interference with the audio. As this occurs only with online video/music and not anything ran computer laptop or DVD directly, this indicates that it would be something to do with the Internet.

    There might be questions about Internet bad signals via wireless or bad connections to Web sites. You have problems with streaming?

    You can also try to connect to your network with an Ethernet cable, to test. The question is perhaps more wireless streaming. Again, this could indicate some sort of interference.
    You can also test your router with the nearby. If you notice the problem disappears in some places but is apparent or worse in others. Check to see what's around, other devices may cause the buzz.

    Have you noticed problems in streaming video and audio on other capable network devices (iPhone, Desktop, etc.).

    The last possibility, again it goes back to poor/bad Internet could be the router itself. If it is older, then it might 'go. '

    I know nothing of the above are direct troubleshooting suggestions for the laptop, but two doing exactly the same thing is very rare. More often then not it is and indication that "something else" happening. The idea and the tests above could help determine what exactly will.

    I would like to know how it all happens.
    Thank you.
