Two problems with my laptop Satellite Pro

Hello

First of all, my DVD drive refuses to read DVD - he spits just them out after a while.

Second, my internet connection is de-energized regularly - only goes 'local'. I have to unplug the connection and then reconnect to make it work.

Hello

It will be interesting to know what model of laptop you have.

Anyway, after reading this description of problem a single sentence, it is not easy to tell a lot about the issue of the DVD.
Have you noticed the same problem using several original DVD movies?
Have you tried to clean the lens of STRANGE?

Connection? You write about WLAN connection, right?

  • Problems with multitasking on Satellite Pro P200

    I am the owner of a new Satellite Pro P200.
    I use this laptop to use software such as photoshop, indesign, etc.

    * Now I have problems with multitasking! *
    It is not possible to run 3 programs at the same time.
    That I have to restart my laptop again and again.

    Does anyone know what is the problem?
    Can someone help me with this problem?

    For two weeks I have P200D. I use it for work and use different applications at the same time. So far, everything is OK and I am very satisfied. Maybe you should try to optimize the operating system:
    -remove all software, you do not need
    -disable the startup of unnecessary software of automatic startup (MSCONFIG)
    -customize the appearance
    -information on the open performance and Control Panel tools and use tasks on the left side to improve the performance of computer s

    P200 is powerful enough and must be able to manage with a few applications running at the same time.

  • Strange problem with RAM on Satellite Pro A100

    I have a Satellite Pro A100 (not sure which...)
    It came with 2x256mb RAM, which are mounted. I noticed my laptop slow, so I checked what he says on the properties of the workstation - who said RAM 192Mo...

    Any idea what's going on?
    I had a peek inside, both are mounted securely, while the right push entirely? There is a small gap (about 1 / 2mm) so that is the little nick and real editing. -What is the cause? Or it's maybe faulty?

    Please help me!
    Thanks in advance,

    Diana

    According to the description of your problem, I guess one of the memory modules is not recognized by the system and the specified result 192 MB of Ram only tell me that your laptop has shared graphics memory card.

    Satellite Pro A100 is fairly new to laptop and, in my opinion, you should contact service. The guarantee must be valid and if everything is defective it will be replaced free of charge.

    If possible, tell us what Satellite Pro, you have exactly. This info you can find on the lower side of your laptop.

  • Can I use 22 "WIDESCREEN TFT with my laptop Satellite Pro?

    I currently use an external monitor standard 17 "TFT on my laptop Sat Pro. My laptop has a standard 15 "screen that I don't use.

    Can I upgrade my VGA monitor to a 22 "WIDESCREEN TFT monitor?
    Will be my Mobile Intel (r) 915GM/GMS, 910GML Express Chipset cope and use the entire screen?

    Thanks - Martin

    Hello

    You will be able to use the 22 "WIDESCREEN TFT monitor, but the question is whether you will be able to choose your favorite screen resolution?  :|
    If the doesn t graphics card driver supports the resolution you want to use, then you will not be able to choose and use it on the external monitor.

    Sometimes an update of the graphics driver (from Intel page) can help get these certain screen resolutions but does that mean doesn t a graphic driver update always helps.

  • Two problems with Vista on Satellite A20-S207

    Hello. I installed Vista on my A20-S207. So far so good except:

    (1) stop is veeeeery slow sleep and Hibernate seems to freeze the computer (output only is to disable manually)

    (2) video playback (any type) is extremelly slow. I couldn't find the Vista drivers for the video card (Trident CyberAladdin), so I use the old XP drivers.

    Anyone know how to solve these problems? Thank you!

    Hello

    As much I know Satellite A20 is aged about 4 years and absolutely not Vista capable. Because of this, you should be glad that you were able to install Vista on this laptop. I am very pleased to learn that you can use Vista.

    Please do not write on the problems. The problems described are not problems, but the result of old and not powerful enough hardware. All that s!

  • Two problems with my Satellite Pro A200

    Hello

    I just bought a laptop Satellite Pro A200 of lamia with windows Vista.
    I found I can't connect to the internet or install hardware such as cameras or printers. The installation of the system software, but the actual hardware does not work. at first, I thought that it was not compatible, but I wonder if USB ports work correctly supposed that no matter what I connect to the top, cameras, printers, mp3 pc can't find the element even if it is automatically install advice?

    Also, I am trying to connect this pc to my existing internet connection on a desktop computer. Any advice on how to do it because nothing seems to work. Cable and wireless and the laptop has an internal modem.
    Thank you

    Indeed some older hardware options are not compatible with Vista. But if the 3rd party software supports Vista will not be problem using these devices.
    You know that Vista is a new OS and Microsoft releases patches and fixes regularly very important.

    I noticed this last fix that resolves to many USB issued under Vista:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/941600/en-us

    I recommend the update to the Vista from time to time to fix some bugs in the OS

    > Also, I am trying to connect this pc to my existing internet connection on a desktop computer. Any advice on how to do it because nothing seems to work. Cable and wireless and the laptop has an internal modem.

    As you say your laptop is capable WLan so why you n t use the Wlan?

  • Two problems with my Satellite L50D-B - 17 K

    Hi all

    I have two problems with my new laptop (L50D-B - 17 K). I installed Windows 7 64 bit:

    1 - USB 3.0 ports (right) does not work after the installation of the USB driver available in the Web of Support from Toshiba site.
    An unknown device appears in Device Manager: "other devices - Bus USB controllers.

    Where is the valid driver for USB 2.0 ports?

    -Runs normally - USB 2.0 (left side)

    2. I can't adjust brightness of the display using fn + F2/F3.

    When I press fn + [f2 f3] setting icon appears at the top of the screen but the brightness does not (not more not less), always the same brightness.

    Also, I installed display and keyboard drivers support Web site available at Toshiba.

    Thanks in advance.

    Kind regards
    Jesus.

    Hello

    The USB 3.0 AMD driver is necessary and required to get the USB 3.0 ports to work.
    The driver can be found on the page of the Toshiba UE driver (I assume that you have installed this driver):

    To get USB 2.0 ports work, you must install the AMD chipset driver (... it's part of the package of display driver)

    Regarding the brightness function key:
    You must install the VAP (value added package) in order to use the FN keys.
    Of course, the display driver must be installed too (as suggested above)

  • Unable to start my laptop Satellite Pro - orange flashing

    I can't boot my laptop Satellite Pro.
    I have an orange light flashes. I tried to remove the battery and hold the power button, but it did not work...

    Help

    I agree with Liam.
    The indicator flashes as a serious hardware problem was detected.
    What you could do is remove the RAM modules and test the device with the new test modules but I guess that is not RAM problem but something wrong with the motherboard.

  • Webcam black when you use MSN on laptop Satellite Pro

    Guys... My cam built into my laptop Satellite Pro seems to work fine when I open... But when I use it with MSN Messenger its always dark... I want to say if I put it on the mood of night that would work with the cam software, but not with MSN.

    What should I do!

    Help please

    If you use MSN the webcam software shouldn't t be started and should not work!
    Disable the webcam software in msconfig. The webcam software should not start automatically when you start the laptop.
    Also, the MSN shouldn't t load. Also disable in msconfig.

  • Problem with keyboard on Satellite L500-128

    Hi all

    I'm having some problems with the keyboard on my Satellite L500-128 - essentially; 8, 9, i, o, k, l and comma and period keys do not work.

    All other keys are working perfectly fine (I use an external keyboard if people wonder!)

    I'm technically minded but I was wondering if its worth disassemble the laptop and have one eye or if someone has had this problem with this laptop before - or if someone has any ideas with what he could fix.

    I tried to do a reset of the laptop (battery and pressing power button) I reinstalled the operating system, but the keyboard still has problems in the BIOS too.

    Hello

    In my opinion and as suggested by Liam, it looks like a simple keyboard malfunction and to solve this problem, the keyboard needs to be replaced.

    The Toshiba service in your country partner could replace the defective
    Otherwise, you could try to replace it yourself, but if you are a beginner and if you have no experience, ask a support technician.
