• Tecra 9100: Media Test failure - check cable then turns off

  Hello

  I have a Tecra 9100 and I got it at low cost and hoping to make it work for my son to do his homework on but its got a problem.

  First he came without a hard drive (on order) then when I turn it on I get + media test check the cable failure then it stops.
  I ve disabled boot from LAN and set the default Bios and tried to boot from the CD drive that starts to install ok (I know he won t get far because I ve without HARD drive)

  But he died just completely sometimes in the beginning, sometimes at half way.

  One can shed some light on the subject.

  Thanks rob

  Maybe its overheating? Search for dust in the radiator. You can blow the dust using a can of compressed air.

  Also test the memory. You can get memtest www.memtest.org and put it on a floppy disk or a CD.

• Tecra 9100 - where to get extra RAM?

  OK, so I found Crucial.co.uk a very useful site to determine what RAM your system can work with. Please can someone clarify for me than if I buy a 256 MB of RAM from them that I will also be able to use 256 MB of RAM already installed. It will be 512 MB of RAM - perfect for me.

  And another thing, where can I find slot1 and slot2 and RAM is easy to install?

  Hello

  The Tecra 9100 can be improved up to 1024 MB.
  Two memory slots are available at the bottom of the unit and therefore, you can use the two modules, i.e. 2 x 256 MB or 2 x 512 MB.

  As said that banks of memory are placed at the bottom of the unit. I think that it s in the middle and the coverage is only fixed with a screw.
  Simply remove this screw and you will be able to open the lid and should see two slots

  A hint; You can find useful information in the user manual. This can be downloaded from the page of Tosh

• Tecra 9100: Sleep Mode is no longer enabled after closing the lid

  Hello

  First post here and not the smartest when it comes to computer skills...

  Have a Tecra 9100 about 4 years old, under XP Pro SP2.

  last 3 days whenever I close the lid of the laptop it won't STAND BY mode me leaving no option but to propel to the top and I get "SUMMARY FAILURE PRESS ANY KEY."... »

  I changed any settings whatsover and since then, I tried to access the Power Saver icon in Control Panel, but when I click on it nothing happens. I then click on a few of the Control Panel Power Options and I get the message "...". "a Microsoft power options and use the Toshiba power Saver saver" which obviously I can't access either!

  Is there any reason why closing the lid of my laptop is no longer 'Stand by' mode, basically going in OFF format only, it became a major drawback and don't know where to turn to.

  Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Reading your post I guess windows on own power options and doesn t use Toshiba power saver power profiles.

  Generally, the issue should be resolved by switch again to the Toshiba power saver in the-> power options control panel! But your announcement about turning the power on, it is not possible! It s very strange?  :|

  In this case, I recommend to remove the Toshiba installation energy saver. This can be done in the Add & Remove programs.

  So finally, check out the following steps:
  Remove the energy saver, restart the laptop, reinstall the Toshiba Common modules, reboot the laptop and install again the energy saver.

  After this procedure, the splash screen should work! By the way; the hibernation mode is disabled by default. If you want to use the Hibernate mode, you will need to enable it first!

• Tecra 9100 does not start in windows-black display

  Hi, just found this forum.
  I have problems with my old laptop Tecra 9100 that ive had since.
  I stopped last night, started this morning and now is no longer boots.
  It gets past the Toshiba screen and windows xp scroll bar screen seems in good condition.

  But then the screen turns black and does not go to the XP login screen.
  But windows does not work because if I press on enter newspapers in my profile (I hear the theme music for connection etc, and the HARD drive light is on, connect to windows...) It's just that I have no display at all?

  I also tried an external monitor, always the same, Windows XP, scroll screen still appears, but nothing else appears on the display.

  Any ideas? Hardware failure? (But the toshiba screen and 1 XP appears)? , Because the OS (even thought I can connect, although "blind")?

  Thank you

  It's strange... I put t think that there is a hardware problem because you can see the Toshiba start screen and like you say the Windows starts.

  My first thought was that your display is set to external monitor
  Looks like you have tested and nothing appears on the second screen?  :|
  Which is really strange.

  In any case after the laptop started try to use the key combination FN + F5 to switch to another screen, maybe it helps.

  You can also try booting in safe mode. Press the F8 key at the beginning.
  Then choose Safe mode.

• Tecra 9100 comes on intermittently and turns off after 10-15 seconds

  Referring to a Toshiba Tecra 9100, model No.: PT910E-602SF-FR

  The power button normally doesn't light up at all, even if sometimes it starts normally, starts to load windows, then always turns off after 5 to 15 seconds in any case.

  It always requires the batteries very well, but it won t turn on. I ve checked the ram, hard drive and I re - set the default bios - nothing prevents to cut if you can get it to turn on.

  Any ideas what could be the problem? Any help appreciated, it s the second time I had - the same problem the last time!

  Thank you

  Hey,.

  Have you already tried to clean the fan? Maybe a lot of dust blocking the fan for laptop can start t, and then turns off itself due to a higher temperature. It would be interesting to try to clean it.

  But in my opinion, you've done everything you can do, and it looks like a malfunction of the motherboard. If cleaning using fan doesn t I think the motherboard is faulty or something else. If you are familiar with the disassembly of the laptop, you can try to fix it yourself with second hand parts. Otherwise it s time for a new laptop I think

• Tecra 9100 - no audio device after XP Pro install

  The audio device does not appear after installation of xp pro sp2 on Tecra 9100.
  I tried allsorts to research on forums and websites.

  I found install them drivers on this site but used to my laptop.
  I need to locate the audio device before get drivers?
  I know this is a very old problem but I tried for 12 months with no result.

  Any help appreciated.

  WOW!
  You are still using the good old classic? Surely she s or it was a nice laptop but maybe it's time for something faster? ;)

  Back to your question;
  On the European driver Toshiba page, you can find drivers Tecra 9100.
  You should look in the Archive (in product type click Archive instead of the laptop)

  There are two audio drivers for Win XP.
  She s Yamaha audio driver version
  -5.12.01.3141
  -6.13.10.2152

  I guess the 6.13.10.2152 is a more recent who is available and I think that you should use it!

  Hello

  I have an old Tecra 9100 with years of quality service, and it is my first problem, but is a great, after a forced restart the display shows the message BIOS 1 damaged block. I tried to fix the BIOS upgrade to the latest version I found, the 1.6 one, but it is a version of Windows (to upgrade a Toshiba computer I think) and when I try to run it in another computer to generate a floppy and upgrade the BIOS drive, I can't, because a common message from modules of Toshiba.

  Its there any floppy BIOS image - archive I can download to perform the BIOS update the BIOS?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  All you can find is stuff on the Toshiba support page. I don't know where you live, but try to contact nearest Toshiba authorized maintainer.
  They have access to the database of Toshiba and they can get it for you. Call and ask for help. I'm sure they will help you fix this BIOS.

• Tecra 9100: Try to install updadet driver for card his Yamaha AC - XG

  Hi all

  I got a Tecra 9100 and like many others I had problems after installing SP2.

  I tried to install the sound card with the driver downloaded from the toshiba support page:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/FAQ.jsp?service=EU&FID=TRO0000001b59

  but I get a windows pop saying that the file yacxg.sys is missing.
  Once the installation is complete and the sound card is not installed.

  Is there anyone who can help me?

  Thank you
  Joazinho

  The fact is that the driver listed in the FAQ from Toshiba is for SP1 and NOT for SP2

  I think you should google a bit and should look for if you find an audio driver that is compatible with the Service Pack 2 update

  Yamaha already provides the fixed driver.

  yacxg.sys 6.13.10.2152 with software synthesizer

  yacxgc.sys 6.13.10.3152 free software synthesizer

• Tecra 9100 - BONES recovered but still no sound

  Hello world

  I still have problems with the sound on my m T9100 and it seems that other people have the same.

  I bought the laptop with dead mobo then had another to replace and not laid out fresh installation of XP Pro Sp3 and its place and running problem, but no sound.
  After reading the other discussions on the topic, I used my Toshiba Recovery discs and all is well but still no sound.

  I tried to update the drivers for the card his Yamaha but still not good. So I got another sound card and knowing that he s a good.
  I mounted it but guess what no sound, at the moment its running Xp pro but I n t updated all the service packs.

  If I used the recovery disks surely it should work because the way you would a obtained again! I m lost now and don t know what to do.

  If I uninstall Yamaha altogether and restart I get found new hardware audio controller. Can I get found new Yamaha sound device, and then get Yamaha didn't install and could not function.

  Ideas please fly

  Hello

  The problem is that your Yamaha sound card driver does not support the SP1 or SP2.

  You said that you have installed XP Pro and Sp3.
  SP3 can be installed ONLY if SP2 has been installed too so the reason why you n her t get is clear; compatibility issue between the Member States of service packs and pilot of his Yamaha.

  Please see the page of the European driver Toshiba. In the Archive-> Tecra-Tecra-Tecra 9100 > 9xxxx-> driver sound >, you will find two different its XP drivers.

  Try to update!

• Major problems of its Tecra 9100

  I hope someone can help me with this, it makes me crazy.

  I can't get the sound to work on my Tecra 9100. The system does not recognize that there is a map of his present. When I try to install the drivers downloaded from the Toshiba site, installation is going through the motions and then at the end it turns out that this error message: caution, "was not installed. That's all. I tried to uninstall, restart, fully updated Windows, even by the restoration of the system from the CD that came with the laptop... nothing works! Argh!

• Tecra 9100: Headset does not work

  My Tecra 9100, headphone connector does not work. Do the good internal speaker. If I plug in headphones or external speakers, the interns are being extinguished, but external devices, I don't hear anything.

  My sound card is generally, I thought that there could be a chance to solve the problem simply say - and reconnect wire/Council of the front-end connectors to the sound card... but I never did any technichal stuff in a Tecra, so it would be nice if someone could give me feedback where and how to open it, and if it's still a chance to solve my problem.

  Hello

  If you can hear the sound from the internal speakers as well as the sound card works correctly.
  In your case I recommend you first check the audio settings in the audio and audio devices you can find in the control panel.
  Check all THE audio controllers.

• How to use the CD of diagnosis of the engineer for Tecra 9100

  Anyone who has used the engineer Tecra CD diagnostic for the 9100 (or any other model if they are similar)? I was able to acquire the CD and have been able to recover part of the diagnostics to run tests starting at BACK 6.22 and the tests directly to the release of the CD. There is probably a "correct" way to use this CD but I have no documentation.

  Specifically, I'm trying to diagnose his painful card problem - it is not recognized by Windows and I can't install the Yamaha riders. I basically JUST replaced on this laptop and still no sound.

  All in ALL, I mean: two mothers (upper/lower case); map its (three different cards!); CPU - what else is one that can be connected to the sound?

  Anyway, if anyone can give some guidance on the diagnostic use of the engineer Tecra 9100 CD it would be greatly appreciated.

  no_bones

  Where did you get this CD of engineers?
  I m scared but in my opinion these CDs are not intended for common use of the user and, therefore, you will not find many people who has experience with those CD.

  But it would be very interesting to know how to get this CD
