  Maybe you need a DVD decoder:

• No software DVD player with my new Satellite Pro P200

  Just bought a new Satellite Pro P200 and, to my surprise and dismay, it has software player DVD No. inside? I downloaded the DVD drive on the official download here, but Vista abandoned the facility saying that I can not install the application. Have you tried to configure it as a Admin, but the same message is given running.

  Suggestions as to how I can get the software to run movies DVD on the new laptop computer would be most appreciated.

  The laptop is model is PSPB7E, it has Vista Business installed and has a HD-DVD drive installed.

  Would apprecate a response early to what I already plan to return this item, demanding a full refund since it seems that it does NOT use a software which SHOULD run (IE. Compatible versions of some software XP will simply not installed because Vista blocks!).

  Kamshot - discouraged by the new culture of 'Vista '!

  Hi Kam

  As far as I know every Toshiba laptop comes with pre-installed software allows you to watch DVD movies. It is a part of the standard installation and the application is called WinDVD.

  According to the specifications of the laptop, your laptop has no HD DVD player, just DVD-Super Multi (+ r DL). Because of this there is no HD DVD player.

• Satellite Pro P200: Cannot play Age of Empires, because DirectDraw

  I just replaced my old laptop (a ps210e) with a 15th Satellite Pro P200.

  I can't my old age of Empires II game to run--the error message is "cannot initialize the graphics system. Make sure that your video card and driver are compatible with DirectDraw. »

  Google told me that there is utility to run to test this called dxdiag and I ran it and it says allowed to DirectDraw acceleration (as well as many other things).

  So, what should I do to get the Age of Empires to run?

  Moreover, is this an official forum of Toshiba to get technical support, or simply a community of user group? I couldn't find anything on the Web of Toshiba UK site actually contact the Toshiba direct technical support.

  Thank you

  Stand by. Have you Vista preinstalled Satellite Pro P200? Did you check the minimum system requirements for Age of Empires?

• Can I downgrade my Satellite Pro P200 for Windows XP?

  Hello

  I bought my Satellite Pro P200 (PSPB7E) a week ago and I love it. I have an unused XP license, so I would like to downgrade.

  Is this problem? I don't see xp for a Chicony webcam drivers or the HD-DVD player.
  I'd really appreciate some feedback. There must be someone out there who has tried to do.

  Thank you in advance!

  Hello

  Of course you can downgrade the satellite Pro P200 for Windows XP.

  When installing XP, you need to install the Intel Storage Manager. It is a SATA driver that is needed to activate the HARD disk.

  Regarding the webcam driver.
  I checked the page European driver of Toshiba and the Chicony webcam driver is certainly available.

  The HD DVD driver is not necessary because the Windows XP must use an own ODD driver.

• Satellite Pro P200-HD: how to use it with Win XP

  Recently, I received the new Satellite Pro P200 HD of Getech. I asked Getech to change the XP operating system because my University will not support Vista. I was told that some features are lost with XP, such as the hot key utility and I agreed to go ahead.

  However, I was not informed that the sound is scratchy and the video will behave as if I play a scratched CD.
  It is true with windows sounds as well. I was not able to enjoy the music or video. I have all the drivers updated and the new Bios XP released recently has been updated.

  Please does anyone know someone using this model with XP as an operating system with the sound and video works properly?
  This would mean that I was sold a laptop with a defective sound equipment and should get a replacement because I had this problem from day one.

  Thanks for the help in advance.

• Satellite Pro P200 - 1KE Vista loses contact with the second internal HARD drive

  Vista Business SP2. I have a Satellite Pro P200-1KE, with two 160 GB drives: a Hitachi configured as C: (operating system, programs, etc.) and E: (data, other programs). The second is a Toshiba MK1637GSX. This little about it and nothing of any importance and is normally configured as d. Unfortunately this hard drive has now become invisible to Vista, although it is still recognized by BIOS and Device Manager. In managing computer does not appear in the list in the upper pane, it comes without a letter from reader below. I have tried everything I know to get recognized, including the following:
  (In no particular order):

  * Remove computer - managed, reset as a single Volume: it always fails
  * Reformat to NTFS using Linux GParted or utility disk Linux (via a USB stick with Linux ice Peppermint on that nerd), sometimes combined with the restoration of the system - it works, but only for a single session. She always disappears again when you restart
  * Remove the driver from Device Manager and pointing plug-and-play with Windows System 32 and Windows Update - which seems to return the driver - but does not recognized disk, unfortunately
  * Meanwhile, throughout all this, Vista insists on finding a driver for "unknown device" that she sometimes found and (allegedly) installs and sometimes find one fails to install.

  Bah!

  Anyone know anything else I can try - preferably without having to reinstall the entire operating system, or run the risk of using Toshiba Hardware Setup that does not seem to come with all the instructions and enigmatic, who wonder if I want to delete stuff 'selected', without showing me what kind of things I am alleged to have selected for removal!

  Best

  If this second HDD is not so important to try to start the original installation disk Microsoft (Vista or Win7) to see if the second HDD will be recognized for the installation procedure.
  You can also try to install Win7 on this second HDD to see if the installation is correctly finalized. Later, you can check if you can start the second HARD drive preinstalled OS.

  Test just to see if this problem is related to Vista only.

• Satellite Pro P200: Cannot install Server 2003 - parity memory error

  I have a Satellite Pro P200 and to the work required to install Windows 2003 server on it, but all I get is an error message:

  -Hardware malfunction

  Call your provider of support material

  NMI: Parity check / memory parity error

  -The system is shut down

  I checked the memory and everything seems OK. Vista runs very well on it, and all memory is recognized. I tried different flavors of Server 2003, although all I need is standard edition. Anyone who has met this problem, or someone has any suspicion as to how I can get it operational.

  So, how tested the RAM? With Memtest? Or Prime95?

  I read in many forums that people work servers (no laptop...) SERVERS) that correctly work 1 year with ECC memory, then windows 2003 server gives the same error message you have.

  I mean if Vista works flawlessly and you checked as you say the RAM while there could be a mismatch which must not be for lack of toshibas.
  Maybe you should try a linux ubuntu server edition, which works great on almost * ALL * systems, even on systems with faulty CPU/memory (Ok, ok, not 100%, but it works, I got this case :))

  So, maybe you can try to exchange the RAM, but if you're still the same error then ask microsoft or try another P200, if they are available.

  Sorry dude, but I Don t have a lot of ideas in your situation :/

• 2nd hard drive in Satellite Pro P200

  Hello world

  I have a Satellite Pro P200.
  Anyone know where I can get an advance and a shopping cart to install a 2nd hard drive?

  As far as I know your laptop can be improved with the second HARD disk if the SATA connector is available.
  When you remove the HARD drive to the second HDD can you see it or not?

  I have the Satellite P200D with place for second HARD drive, but there is no connector HDD SATA upgrade is not possible.

• Satellite Pro P200 - 17 c: Win XP won't load - installation of the SATA driver

  Hello

  I have a satellite pro p200 - 17 c I've had good years, allways worked without any problem.

  Last week when I booted the laptop, windows won't load and I find myself safe mode selection screen. No options whatsoever me to windows loading, I tried F8 and still nothing.

  I tried the restore cd that reimagee the drive but I get the same thing, I tried a new hard drive, once again the same.

  But if I try to load windows from an OEM to install that software does not because it is a sata drive and there is no floppy drive. I have an external floppy drive I use, but it is not known now.

  Any ideas or suggestions?

  Hello

  Go to BIOS and set it to default settings.

  In this case the SATA mode must be on AHCI. In this case the SATA drivers are required to install the Windows operating system. But as much as I know that Windows 7 already contains the SATA drivers if usually you don t had to add SATA drivers while OS installation the installation program.

  However, here is a nice HowTo document that helps you add SATA drivers for Win XP installation disc.

• SSD upgrade for Satellite Pro P200 (PSPB7A-01000J) - possible?

  Hello world

  I had a Satellite Pro P200 for 3 years and more. It came with Vista Business pre-installed, but I have successfully installed Windows 7 a few months ago.

  A few months ago, I replaced the C drive in my office with a Solid State Drive and now he sings - program start and loading of the system is much faster than before.

  Now I'm wondering if the SSD upgrade even could be done to my trusty P200 and if yes, what brand/model of SSD could be better. It should be 128 GB or 256 GB maybe.

  Anyone else been in this way? The results? Pitfalls?

  All responses appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Greg.

  Hello

  I think that it should be possible.
  You must use a SATA SSD drive since the laptop supports the SATA controller.
  To be honest, I never tried to upgrade the laptop with a SSD but SSD is not very different from the HARD drive and normally should not be a problem.
  In some cases, an update of the firmware of SSD may be necessary but usually these firmware updates should be available on the SSD drive manufacturer support page.

• Failure of the BIOS - Satellite Pro P200 - 16 c

  I installed Windows 7 64 bit on a laptop Satellite Pro P200 today. I then tried flashing the BIOS through windows with program Flash BIOS on Toshiba driver download page. I used the program flash for Vista because none is available for Windows 7. The program started and took a backup of my old version of BIOS and then Flash the BIOS. Then after a while an error occurred saying that this operating system was not supported.

  Alright. I restarted the computer and he was going to access the BIOS to see if the new version was done to install or not. But I can't access the BIOS now since the TI of suddenly password protected. I tried Google known standard Phoenix BIOS passwords, but they do not work. Now I've mistyped the password if often the computer won't let me even start without entering a correct password.

  How can I reset the BIOS? Should I open the laptop and remove the CMOS battery? Which will work?

  Help, please...

  Hello

  You used not compatible BIOS and it seems that module ROM BIOS was not flashed properly.
  Unfortunately, there is nothing to do but to contact the ASP of Toshiba in your country,
  Guys could remove the password and can reflash the BIOS using a traditional disk BIOS version and the crisis.

  > How can I reset the BIOS? Should I open the laptop and remove the CMOS battery? Which will work?
  No, remove the CMOS battery would not help because as far as I know that the CMOS battery is not removable on laptops just ASP can clear the BIOS password.
