• Tecra 9100 - help to choose RAM

  It comes to earlier put that on for some reason any got locked and marked "assumed answered", when in fact it wasn't.

  Eldorado reported me to the answer of Markus77. Thank you, but Markus77 or Eldorado say they tried the modules that listed there and actually pushed them to work in a Tecra 9100. The link in the response of Markus77 only points to one of the many similar provider sites I've seen, who say that the 2x512MB modules are supported. The point is, Lewislite had tried about 5 different brands/replacements and none of them were all-purpose, that they either slow his system or it could not start at all.

  I asked, because I want to upgrade my current 512 MB too, if someone had actually he managed successfully on a Tecra 9100, or if it is one of those rare instances of a model with a motherboard that is insufficient to hold over the limit prescribed by the manufacturer, which for the 9100 by Toshiba 512 MB of cache. Maybe because most of the laptops will accept 2x512MB, suppliers assume just the 9100 will do too and so offer them to anyone willing to buy them. But has anyone actually done and got to work?

  The fact that Toshiba are 512 MB modules is not in itself a response, because they could be directed to other models. The fact remains that Toshiba say the maximum the 9100 is 512 MB, and Lewislite tried 5 different modules to try to go beyond that and found that none of them would be.

  Then, everybody in fact successful to do a better job Tecra 9100 with more than 512 MB or have memory suppliers are mistaken for this model?

  Had a look at the detailed Tecra 9100 here: http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/home.jsp?nav=Download

  It shows that Kingston 512 MB KTT3614/512 RAM is compatible. I am assuming that you can run Modules 2 x 512 MB.

  Make sure you use PC2100 DDR memory. PC2700 should work, but there may be a compatibility issue.

• Problems of its Tecra 9100

  I recently bought two used Tecra 9100 (guarantee is expired, unfortunately) and they are both in great shape. I couldn't be happier with them, but alas, the sound came out on one. I checked through all the General solutions, Device Manager, reinstall drivers, purchase new sound card on eBay, test with a sound card in the other system of work...

  I tested the drive with a 16 MB SD card and a 1 GB card, of which none were detected (even though I updated the driver for that also).

  Installing the driver for the card his Yamaha returns a warning message telling me that "the driver has been installed not."

  I cleaned all contacts with alcohol and q-tips several times.

  There is no device not recognized in Device Manager.
  The OS is a new installation.
  The BIOS is updated to the latest version (ver 1.60).

  If there is someone tha can you please help me to diagnose more this problem I would be very grateful.
  Thanks to a bouquet.

  Hello

  According to your link that you have posted, the detachment was answered.
  The noise problem was caused by the installation of SP1.

  In addition, the SD card slot supports are not all sizes of SD card.

• WLAN on Tecra 9100 - LED should go orange if the s/w keyboard shortcut NOT installed?

  I bought a Tecra 9100 that had been restored to XP SP1 and without good Toshiba utilities that most drivers seemed to be OK - for example screen OK but USB has been 1.1 until I added the Intel Chipset drivers.

  I can't get the WLAN card to work by sliding the switch (close microphone) - also, it does NOT appear in Device Manager. I spotted a post below (which was locked) where Pedro said WiFi hotkey software must be installed to make it work. Two questions:

  1 if the s/w keyboard shortcut IS NOT installed should always be able to mount the light Orange / appear in Device Manager
  2. is there an alternate download site because I tried 20 times in the last 15 hours at: http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/cmod-en-20070925121500.zip (for the common modules) and the site just seems to be 'dead' - nothing is received at all

  Thank you very much in advance - I want to become a happy member of Tosh' club... Cheers, Brian R.

  PS; The Tecra has a WiFi tag on the bottom and even a MAC address and I have not yet looked for nothing changed so much material.

  Pedro post follows:
  + Hello +.

  + Is the map original WLAN or you have upgraded on your own? What is with Device Manager, this is the card of wireless network which are listed there? +

  + For the use of WLAN, there are few requirements: +.
  + WLAN switch must not be broken or defective.
  + Wireless network card must be compatible one.
  + The WLAN antenna must be connected correctly.
  + Wireless network card must be installed properly (the right driver must be installed) +.
  + Wireless network card must be enabled in the Device Manager.
  + Wireless network card must be activated using the FN + F8 key combination (Wireless Hotkey V2.0.0.1 must be preinstalled) +.

  (1) first you should check if there is a yellow exclamation (unknown device) in device under network adapter Manager.
  If you find any unknown devices in the network adapter section then your laptop was not equipped with WLan minPCI card!
  The shortcut key has nothing to do with the WLan card status in Device Manager! The keyboard shortcut software only controls the function FN + F8.

  (2) don t know what you mean! The functions of link!

• 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 Siegen

  I am very interested to understand your problem and try to help but I really didn t understand your problem. Of course, my English isn't the best, but I hope you can clearly explain what you want to know about this old notebook.

  BIOS password has this oldie and now, you don't have access to it now?
  Is your laptop or you bought one?
  Here you can ask what you want and I'm sure that you can chat with other owners of Toshiba laptops on your problems.

  I have two of them and I am very satisfied. Support and customer service are on the high level. So I'm really interested about your problem and the reasons why you think that the service is not good for you.
  I mean, for each question, there must be a logical explanation.

  I am quite often here and you want to discuss with other people. If the last comment on the propaganda is somewhat strange to me.

• Tecra 9100 - error IDE with new drive

  I want to use a burner DVD UJ - 820B on my Tecra 9100, BIOS-Version 1.6.
  If I change the UJ-820, I have IDE #1 error in the Bootscreen, and the device is not recognized.

  No tool or the update for this problem?

  A #1 IDE error normally if a wrong settings or connection together.
  So I think that the disc is not compatible with the laptop.

  Look in your user manual and choose a drive that is listed in the manual. Not every drive is compatible with any laptop.

• Re: Cannot update BIOS of 1.5 to 1.6 on Tecra 9100 T

  I have problems with the update the BIOS of my Tecra 9100. The current version is 1.5, and I want to update 1.6, so that the DVD-RAM UJ-820 does work.

  I tried to do with the windows tool in the Zip file (error message: user lacks administrative privileges) and with the startup disk (error message: unknown chipset).

  What can I do next?

  Hello

  You are right. On the support page Toshiba 1.60 update is available for the old Tecra 9100. As I see that one option is available WIN. This means that you must do under Windows running. If the option with the startup disk can be done at all.

  Start your Windows, download update (910078v160.exe) and extract it to the desktop. Close all running applications and run the exe file. That s it!

• Re: Tecra 9100 - new HARD drive is not detected

  I have a Toshiba Harddisk provide a Tecra 9100. Checking the BIOS it shows "Enhanced IDE", but you are trying to boot from the disc does not work HARD. Even trying to install a new operating system present, that the HARD drive is not detected.
  From the laptop is also very long.
  Any idea?

  Your new HARD drive is larger than 120 GB? The HARD disk controller supports the 28-bit LBA and large drives as 120 GB will not be recognized by the BIOS.

  What you mean with Enhanced IDE? The BIOS recognizes the new HARD drive with model number?

• 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.

• Tecra 9100 - required accupoint driver for XP

  I need a MS XP driver for the accupoint of my new (used) Tecra 9100. Or at least I think, because the accupoint does not work and there is no configuration on the menus of the mouse tab.

  On the driver download page http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU I don't know which is the "driver type", I have to choose.
  Can someone help me?

  Thank you

  There is no available accupoint driver for Tecra 9100 and Windows XP.

  I searched on the Web from Toshiba site too and I looked in the installation instructions, but there is no driver available.

  Sorry, but it's done.

• Tecra 9100 stopped after one hour of work

  I bought a Tecra 9100 and he stopped after an hour of work or less like frozen.
  Using the keyboard or the mouse to restart did not work.
  I have to use the power button to shut down and restart after stop down.
  I tried to reinstall windows xp and change the ram, but still the same problem.

  Thank you very much!!

  Hello

  How long have you used the laptop?
  Eventually the temperature inside the laptop could be responsible for these issues of freezing. A similar problem occurred on my laptop. He frisottés due to overheating.
  I just cleaned the fans and cooling grids modules with the vacuum cleaner and the problem disappeared.

  I think you should also check the cooling modules and try to clean it carefully.
