  The RAM slots are located at the rear of the Machine or below the keyboard?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Memory module compartment is placed at the bottom of the unit.
  You can remove the screw clean the lid in plastic and then you will be able to remove this cover and access locations of memory.

  AFAIK, you can upgrade the memory for max 8GB (2 x 4 GB), but it's not necessary you can upgrade to 4 GB RAM and it is more than enough

• Re: Tecra A10 - 12O - how to buy the 64-bit version of Vista?

  Hello!

  I bought Tecra A10 - 12O with 4 GB of ram.
  My Tecra shipped only with Windows Vista Business 32-bit so I can use only 3, 2 GB of memory.
  I got to know that Microsoft allows me to use the 64 bit instead of 32 bit version - legally.
  I have to buy 64 bit media much chipper as the new Vista box.

  Here is the link to the Polish Microsoft page where I could order 64-bit media [http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/1045/ordermedia/pl-pl/default.mspx], of course, if this page would accept my product key.

  Microsoft says I can get 64 bit Toshiba media.
  I can't find Toshiba Web information pages on how to get the media. Polish Toshibas service says that it is not possible.

  Does anyone know how to buy that media?

  concerning
  Tomek

  Hello

  If you want to use the Vista 64 bit OS, then you will need to buy a full license Vista 64-bit.
  The 32-bit Vista preinstalled on your laptop is only the OEM licenses and the serial key belongs to this operating system preinstalled.

• Tecra A10 - how to disable the fingerprint reader when it is docked

  Hello

  I use a Tecra A10 with a 2 Express Port Replicator.
  How can I disable the fingerprint reader when it is docked and still use it when undocked?

  Thanks for your help

  Hello

  As far as I know that something like this is not possible.
  Following this logic, it will be possible to have access to protected files when the laptop is on docking station.

  Either you use fingerprints or not.

• How to get to the settings, DATA from the old HARD drive to new Tecra A10

  My 'old' TECRA A2"refused to fly (fell on the desk)... Screen and grapfic external duty!
  But the HARD drive is still OK and works via an external USB HD adapter to my other PC.

  Can read all the files in the root directory,
  * can NOT read only password protected those *:
  means all files * DOCS and SETTINGS below *.

  My password old route was:
  PW to START WIN XP
  OUTLOOK 2003 via the backup.pst PW

  Bought a new A10 TECTRA...

  HOW can I get the form parameters of DATA etc., my old HDD via USB in my new TECRA A10?

  ANY Suggestion?

  Hello!

  As far as I know that you must add the Group everyone in the folder options. Right-click on the folder-online security-online advanced-online (effective) permissions
  There, you must add the user to the other laptop or for example all users. Then it should work.
  I had this problem for 1 or 2 years and it worked for me.

  A friend of mine told me that he was able to copy the data to a Linux system. You can start form a Linux boot CD/DVD, and then copy the data on the other PC.

• Tecra A10 - 1LP: Win 7 OS recovery after initially downgrading to XP Pro

  I have a Toshiba Tecra A10 - 1LP which we downgraded to Windows XP Pro using the recovery disk provided.
  However, we would now back the laptop to its original factory DEFAULT of Windows 7, but unfortunately I don't see how I can do this.

  We have no recovery disc for Windows 7 product and the suggestion of support to hit F8 at startup and select site fix your computer is not available.

  I need to order the relevant recovery for Windows 7 disk?

  Concerning

  Mark

  Hello

  I guess, the missing hard drive recovery image, it's why you can't restore factory settings hit F8. You have 2 options:

  1. as you mentioned, is on the agenda of Toshiba for the money:

  https://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

  2 copy of Windows (buy, borrow, download) and install it. Then, download and install the drivers for maintaining the proper installation order:

• Re: Tecra A10 - 11J - display rotates 90 degrees if I open a game

  Whenever I open a game, my screen rotates 90 degrees to the right. I have no ideea how to fix this problem.
  I have the graphics driver. My laptop is a Toshiba Tecra A10 - 11J.

  Please help me, I've read a lot about this but nothing useful.
  Thank you for your time.

  Your laptop uses Intel graphics card and pressing the combination of some keys you could rotate the screen to another position.

  As I m not wrong no you can use this key combination
  Turn to normal-> press CTRL + ALT + TOP of the buttons
  90 degree rotation->, press CTRL + ALT + LEFT.

  and so on.

  You can also check this in Control Panel-> Intel Graphic Media Accelerator

  I would like to know if you have a broken on those screen tecra A10, we could eliminate a screen from another similar machine that is faulty, but has an intact screen.

  In this regard, I had a look on the Tecra A10 screen cover but for the life of me can not establish how you would get the screen on the cover and also how to disassemble the lid of the machine, we'll install the screen.

  I would be very grateful if someone would kindly advise please in this case

  Hello

  You won't find that everything disassemble manuals on the pages of Toshiba.
  You can find manuals the user only for models of simple laptops that are provided for ordinary users.

  I guess you will need to search on the internet for some details how to disassemble the Tecra A10.
  Use google and search + Tecra A10 irisvista +.
  Then you should get a few hits on Tecra A10 disassembly

• Tecra A10 - dual boot XP and Windows 7

  Can I set up my Tecra A10 Windows 7 from dual boot with XP?

  I created a partition on the HARD drive. When I try to start my load of CIP 2 ser XP I can almost the first Setup screen then bomb out with a message saying to continue would be detrimental to my installation of Windows 7.

  Any ideas. Bobg

  Hello

  Of course, you can do a system dual boot with both operating systems. But before you change anything on the HARD drive partitions you create the Toshiba Recovery disk if you didn t it yet. With this record, you can restore the factory settings every time.

  Generally if you have installed Windows 7 first of all you need to create a new partition for Windows XP. You can install XP on this partition and you need to change the boot sector using EasyBCD or another tool.

  In your case, I would ask Google you'll find hundreds of tutorials how to make a system dual-boot. ;)

• Boot Linux on Tecra A10 SD

  Hi, I have a fairly new Tecra A10 running Vista. I would use a SD card (SDHC, ideally) to boot Ubuntu/XUbuntu.

  I can do the Linux work from a USB startup key, but can't seem to work on the SD card. the methods that I used for the USB (taken from the site PenLinux) do not seem to transfer.

  At the start of the machine, I use F12 and try the option to boot disk/SD or USB port, or causes my boot SD card.

  I guess I have to do something with the "SD Boot Utility" to force the card to look like a floppy disk. But I don't have the slightest idea how to do it.

  Any thoughts?

  ; Nigel.

  I am wanting to do exactly the same thing with a nice shiny new Portege R500. I installed 'successfully' Ubuntu 8.10 on my 8 GB SDHC card (it has detected, partitioned correctly etc.). I put the bootstrapper on the map, I thought it would be able to see that, as partition bootable, but it did not work at all.

  I considered if I have to install the bootloader on the physical hard disk, but do not know if it will help (i.e. put something in pointing to/dev/mmcsd hd0 (or whatever it was called).

  Assistance (we two) would be greatly appreciated! I'm sure that it's possible it's I have to be. I also had same experience, that Linux would boot 100% AOK off a USB key, but it would just do nothing on the SD card.

  Thanks in advance.

• Tecra A10 - pad touch and the keys do not work on Windows 7 x 64

  We have recently done a new install of Windows 7 x 64 on a Toshiba Tecra A10.
  The operating system has taken over most of the drivers, we had to install drivers for the card reader ourselves.

  Our problem is that the touchpad and the buttons work at all.
  The driver displayed in devices such as manager being installed, but that's all. I even installed the control panel of the Alps (Vista x 64) which works very well.
  Have tried the settings "stick and touchpad are automatically invalidated" when you use an external USB mouse, all to nothing done.

  The equipment worked perfectly okay with Windows 7 32 bit installed.

  Is there a fix here?

  Hello

  Maybe it of just a driver issue, I checked the downloads available for Tecra A10 on page of Toshiba and Windows 7 32 bit there is a newer driver available for Windows 7 64 bits do not (no driver). If you use the Vista 64 bit driver

  What you can do is to test the driver for the touchpad for Tecra A11. There is a version more recent for Windows 7 64 bit of Alps Electric so correct. Touchpad driver is not linked so I sure it will also work on your model of m.

  Take a look at the Web of Toshiba Tecra A11 driver site:

• Tecra A10 - 104 finger print driver for windows 7

  Hello

  I just installed Windows 7 on my laptop (* Toshiba Tecra A10-104 *)
  It seems that everything works well except the following drivers:

  1 - fingerprint Sensor

  2 PCI Simple Communications Controller

  Can someone help me?

  How to help?
  Either you can find the drivers on the Toshiba download page or not.
  According to this document - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9902P50000R01.htm - Toshiba Tecra A10 will be supported Win7.
  This means that all Win7 will be available. If you can't find them, I assume that they will be released soon.

  That's all that I can say about it.

• Tecra A10 - no sound using Win XP

  Hi all
  I have some problems with the sound of my Toshiba Tecra A10. I have already installed the Audio from Realtek driver and I see the little speaker symbol down on the right side, too.

  But I don't hear anything. The Device Manager has a yellow question mark on "Modem Device on High Definition Bus" Audio.

  I installed the Driver Modem Agere Systems, but nothing happened.

  Can someone help me and give me a link for this driver I need.
  I use Windows XP.

  Details of the material:

  HDAUDIO\FUNC_02 & VEN_11C1 & DEV_1040 & SUBSYS_11790001 & REV_1002\4 & 9E9AEC4 & 0 & 0101

  Kind regards

  > I use Windows XP.

  OK, although similar questions I with Win XP on other laptops with new HD audio from Realtek.
  The point is that you have SP2 and SP3!

  The SP2 and SP3 provides important patches and fixes for the HD audio
  Then firstly uninstall the Realtek audio driver.
  Then install the SP2 and SP3.
  Then go to Device Manager and remove the marked devices of yellow exclamation.
  Reboot the laptop.
  Now Win XP should find a new audio device and should ask the driver.
  No, you must install the audio driver from Realtek.
  Reboot once more and now the sound should works fine
