TECRA 9100 - loss of sound, WLAN, BT, and SD function

Hello

during the operation of a USB - HDD and mp3 player on my Tecra 9100, abruptly stopped, power to the WLAN-, Sound-, Bluetooth, SD - Card.
For example: no sound microphone, WLAN switch does not work, reports of Bluetooth: no power supply.

On this issue, I heard more often in some forums. My warranty has expired. Regular service is more expensive than a Tecra 9100 of second hand.

Can anyone give some advice? Which piece can be damaged, motherboard, I I/O-board?

It sounds really bad.
As far as I know there is only one Board and if something is wrong with a part of the motherboard only management as a whole must be replaced!
As you have already said this replacement is not very cheap, because the jury is one of the expansive laptop parts.

Without diagnostic tests, no one will be able to provide a just and final diagnosis.
That's why I recommend you contact a technician from laptop to a cheque

After these checks you can find out more details on the breakdown and could decide what you what to do; buy a second hand laptop or try to repair the old Tecra

Good luck

  • Tecra 9100 - loss of sound after Windows Update.

    I just got my hands on a 9100 second hand and have been re - install XP Pro. I was going well and had everything except the card SD not working after downloading all the drivers concerned off Toshiba site.

    Micorsofts update the site decided to download new drivers for the card his Yamaha, and now it says NO device.

    I reinstalled the drivers from the toshiba site, but despite everything I do, it still shows no device.

    Ive tried reinstalling the software Synth as well, but having said that I need to run the re-installation of synth program. But there is no directory on the drive for what Yamaha and no entry in the Add/Remove for yamaha synth window or in the start menu.

    I'm at a loss where to go then, short from once again and re-installing the OS to the top, and it's a good day's work.

    Is a cleanup utility exists then I can just redo the part of sound card?

    Help please. :-(

    Hello

    It seems that there is a problem with his Yamaha card driver after the installation of the Microsoft Windows XP SP2.

    Seems that you need to update the audio driver of Yamaha!

    After a short investigation, I found this site:

  • 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.

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.

    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.

  • Hi speed USB via a Port Replicator advanced for a Tecra 9100?

    I have the same problem with a Tecra 9100 and upgrade to hi speed USB as a previous post where the proposed solution was to use a PCMCIA card.

    (see link: http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=24103)

    I had an idea, but I don't know if it will work and need some advice?

    Can you buy an Advanced Port Replicator that has Hi Speed USB 2.0 ports on it (like the PA3082U APR II that works with the Tecra 9100) instead of the PCMCIA card.

    If the docks of Port Replicator in the motherboard will it give you Hi Speed USB 2.0, or is the Tecra 9100 forced to USB 1.1 via hardware in the laptop itself and the Replicator will not help?

    Also if I go down the road of Port Replicator I need drivers for speed ports Hi of the Replicator to work on the Tecra 9100?

    Or to ask the question – what is the PCMIA USB 2.0 card in that advanced with HI Port Replicator speeed USB is not?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    the Tecra 9100 has NO usb 2.0 and it's a fact. Given that the Replicator has these USB ports 2.0 does not mean that your machine when it is docked to the Portrep, is able to manage USB 2.0 devices. The portrep, it's like a usb hub and behaves like. So if your machine doesn´t have it then that's it.

    And the explanation on the PCMCIA/Cardbus solution:
    The pcmcia card USB 2.0 Chipset, this is the reason why it IS a USB 2.0 device (roothub).

    I hope this was clear to you :)

    Just buy this card and you will have USB 2.0

  • Tecra 9100: No sound and unknown device

    I have the laptop above and have recently flattened and reinstalled Windows XP pro. I have no sound, I have a speaker in my sys tray, Device Manager detects the card Intel (r) 82801 CA/Cam AC'97 Audio Controller, after I installed the RealTek AC 97 drivers. I plugged in the headphones to make sure that this is not not the speakers who have blown. But still no sound. All volumes are turned upward and the volume on the front wheel is set in the middle. In sounds and audio in the Control Panel, all volumes are increasing and the speakers are set to portable stereo speakers.

    Any ideas?

    I have a unknown devices in Device Manager States location is a system compatible ACPI Microsoft from what I see on Google it's something to do with the battery. Once again any ideas?

    Thank you

    I know that your laptop. It s a Tecra 9100 and this laptop supports a Yamaha YMF753 - stereo 16-bit Sound Blaster Pro compatible sound card.

    The problem is the XP SP1 or SP2. The audio driver of Yamaha does not support SP1.
    Seems that you need to update the audio driver.

  • The editable Tecra 9100 sound card?

    Can someone tell me if the sound card on the Tecra 9100 is editable? And if so, where to find a new. And how to open the laptop in order to proceed to the place of the sound card.
    Thank you, Peter (of Germany)

    Hello

    I think the Tecra 9100 uses a stand-alone sound table
    Yamaha YMF753 - 16-stereo sound blaster pro compatible system (WAVE und MIDI) bits
    It could be removed and replaced without replacing the entire motherboard, but that part can be ordered from the Toshiba service partner.
    But it looks like you don't have many experiences from these exchanges of witch.

    So I recommend you to contact a technician for these replacements.

  • No sound on my Tecra 9100

    Hello

    I have a 9100 used Tecra since 1 year 1/2. Works well, but 3 months work doesn t sound more. I put t know if I made any specific. I use Windows XP Prof. SP2 (but I used the same when it worked). The sound card is recognized by the operating system and it starts working again but not sound with the speakers and no sound with headset also.

    It worked once, and I think that there should be a solution. And I also think that there is no problem with the IO card because the operating system recognizes the soundcard. But maybe I think too :-)

    There is only one solution, you will update the driver that supports the MS or you will remove him the MS service packs of the system.
    I prefer the first solution ;)

  • Tecra 9100 and compatibility with 32-bit/3, 3V PC Cards (PCMCIA)?

    I would like to increase the power of my WIFI.

    The internal card supports 802.11 a standard only.

    The Tecra 9100 Series is compatible with 32-bit/3, 3V-PCMCIA cards?

    Hello

    According to the specifications of the computer laptop Tecra 9100 is ready WLAN and can be upgraded with standard Wi - Fi 802. 11B. I have the same WLAN card on my Tecra M1 and I'm really happy. You can buy the Wireless (PA3189U-1MPC) recommended LAN card and like to be mobile. The transfer of data is OK and you don't need a better card for this good old classic.

    It is an old map and it won't be cheap. Check it out.

  • Tecra 9100: After the installation of the DVB - T USB no sound could be heard

    I tried to install a USB DVB - T. After that you could hear no sound. When I have on my PC, I could fix this out the sound card and put the new one. Y at - it an option to do it with my Tecra 9100?

    All audio drivers are reported as ok. The 'Geraetestatus' element is reported as ok.
    But the 'Geraeteverwendung' element is not available = gray. (I'm not an English word for this).

    Hello

    No, on laptops you can't physically remove the sound card
    But you can try to remove (uninstall) the sound from the device manager card!

    After restarting again the operating system should recognize the card even once and you could reinstall the new version (if available) of the sound driver.

    Try your luck ;)

  • Tecra 9100 - unable to connect to the WLan access point

    Hello

    I have a Tecra T9100 with miniPCI WLan. I reinstalled XP Pro and all the drivers (downloaded from the Toshiba site) and I've always had a problem with Wifi:

    I can see all access point (in the windows control panel), but when I click on connect, I received a message that the access point is no more...
    He didn't ask me for the security settings?

    does anyone have an idea?

    Much thanks

    Leclere

    Hello

    To my knowledge the Tecra 9100 was equipped with the wireless LAN standard: 802. 11B mini card PCI ORiNOCO.

    You need to check if the WiFi signal is strong enough for a transmission correctly
    I think that the signal of WLan access points is not strong enough because of the distance.

  • 54 MBit WLAN for Tecra 9100?

    Hello

    I guess you need a WLan card with a 802.11 G standard.
    I don't know if you can use a network card local minPCI 802.11 G as far as I know the laptop was configured with a and B standard.
    You can ask the Toshiba service partner in your country if there is a compatible Wlan G card and supported for this device.
    If this isn't the case, then you can also use a key USB Wlan with 802. 11 G.

  • 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!
