• Update BIOS 2.20 - WIN32 - Satellite A200 fan activity

  Hello

  I bought the Satellite A200 on February. So far, it was all right. I've recently updated my BIOS to 2.20 unfortunately. Now my fan runs constantly. I changed the graphics settings, stopped some unnecessary programs loaded during startup. Nothing is done, the fan works. Is this normal?

  Before updating the BIOS he made completely different. All started for a while with force almost complete and that gradually collapsed. Now, he is constantly working with the same speed, but never stops.

  Please help :(

  I imagine that the Toshiba engineers have changed some values in the BIOS settings. What you can try is to change the METHOD of COOLING in saving settings.

  You can find under > Panel control system & maintenance Power Startup Options? Select a settings change plan Plan to modify the Toshiba Power Saver V.xxx cooling method advanced power settings

• Screen cracked on Satellite A200-1Z3

  Hello..
  I live in amman-Jordan, I bought a laptop Satellite A200-1Z3, and the third day I found the cracked screen, I went to the store of toshiba in amman and asked me for a new, but have said it will follow the coast me $ 563,3 so I went home and searched the internet ((ebay)) I found a lot of screens and all around $ 140 , but the problem is I can't tell which model I need... and where I can find a good price in the USA... Please help me.

  + PS im living now in NY.

  As I'm not living in the United States I can't tell where you could get a good price on a new laptop screen. Think you could google stores a bit to find space.
  To know what screen you have, you may ask ASP or Toshiba store where you were already.

  But, if you could manage get a new screen for your computer, you will need to replace it with the damaged and I'm sure that's not as easy as the upgrade of RAM or HARD drive. Don't know how experienced you are in these things, but I'm not on my own, unless guarantee is lost if you do it yourself.

  It's expensive, but better that way then lose warranty or destroy something.

  What did you do that your screen has cracked anyway?

• Satellite A200-PSAE6E - FN key not working not not on Vista 32-bit

  Hi all

  I can't get the FN button to work, no matter how many times I reinstall the software of Toshiba, it doesn't seem to work!

  Anyone got a workaround?

  I use 2.40 BIOS and Vista 32 bit

  Hello

  By using the Vista operating system on laptop Satellite A200, the FN keys are controlled by Vista Flashcard Utility.
  This tool is a part of the added value Vista package and therefore this package needs to be reinstalled on your system!

  But before you start with the installation of VAP, the VAP installed older must be removed first.

• While the graphics of games download scrambled and freezes Satellite A200-1j0

  Hello

  I have a problem of great graphics with my laptop. Its a Satellite A200-1j0 with HD 2600 running vista 32 bit.
  When I start a game, only the graphics are scrambled and the nb freezes.

  I have been using the nb for casual games, since I bought it (1 year ago) without any problem.
  But a few days, a few games (hl2, far cry 2) started my freezing system rarely and at random times.
  Today, I've updated the drivers from the Toshiba site and it got worse.

  It happens now in almost all games, and, as soon as the graphics appear after loading screens.
  Windows will run without problems, however.

  Here are some pictures of the laptop when the graphics get scrambled

  Doesn't look good I agree with Akuma.
  Check if the BIOS and driver graphics card to day helps.
  If that does not solve the graphics problem then ASP support is necessary.

  I've updated my RAM memory on my laptop Thishiba Satellite A200 (from 2 GB to 4 GB) but unfortunately now I can't enter the BIOS. Automatically load the operating system (windows 7 64 bit).

  How can I solve my problem?

  P.S. The new RAM works perfectly and it is recognized by Windows 7.

  I don't know what you've done and why this happens, but what you can do is to check if the quick start option is enabled.
  Open Toshiba Assist > optimize > HWSetup > priority Boot and check the startup speed option it.
  Remember that it is set to Normal.

  Please, check and send comments.

• Bad BIOS installed on the Satellite A200

  I had one laptop Satellite A200 and I downloaded and installed an incorrect BIOS. Then I restarted my laptop and it is empty. I researched and downloaded many programs, but I don't have a USB floppy drive. I downloaded phlash16, created an autoexec.bat file and follow all directions I've read on different post of different Web sites.

  Can someone please help me to recover my BIOS using the virtual floppy drive to USB and can someone please give a process step by step on how to reflash the BIOS. My laptop is Toshiba Satellite A200. Please give me a BIOS for my laptop.

  Please email me [email protected]

  Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you.

  Hi mate

• Require BIOS 1.8 for Satellite A200 - 13M (PSAE6) - fan activity

  Hi you all,.

  I've recently updated my Satellite A200 - 13 M (PSAE6) with 2, 20 - Win Vista bios.
  I have a higher activity of the fan and therefore, much more noise!
  The fan now comes 47-48 ° C, which is lower than earlier (~ 50 ° C).

  I would go back to the previous version of bios that proved be smoother!
  Could someone help me get the version 1, 8 - Win vista.

  What are the main changes from v1.8 v2.2 except the most aggressive fan control?

  Kind regards.

  Maxim

  Hi, Maxim

  In my opinion, the cooling modules run more strong and faster to prevent the internal hardware for example the GPU and the CPU from overheating.
  To me, it seems that fan chart that is stored in the BIOS has been updated and this is why the propellers rotate faster for the reason mentioned above

  The driver Toshiba offer page only the most recent BIOS updates BIOS old versions are not available on the site and I think you need to contact your ASP local for a BIOS more soon.

  Unfortunately, I put t see any other opportunities to get an older version BISO, different for you notebook series.

  First be sure that the AHCI is enabled in the BIOS.
  In addition, the Intel Storage Manager controls the AHCI so you should integrate the AHCI driver to CD Win XP as described here:

• Updated BIOS (Insyde H20) BACK - Satellite A300-24 X

  Hello

  I bought the laptop Toshiba Satellite A300 - 24 X WITHOUT an operating system preinstalled.

  I'm using Linux and I want to update my BIOS to version 1.8 and 1.9 through a utility BACK/FreeDOS.

  The main problem is that the BIOS flash utility runs only on Windows OS.

  Why Toshiba does not provide the utility flash BACK for those who have bought a laptop without Windows operating system and want to or need to upgrade the BIOS without buy/install the Windows operating system only for these purposes?

  Is it possible to update my BIOS (Insyde H2O) with some flashing BACK?

  Kind regards
  Zarko

  Hello

  You can update the BIOS by using the diskette, but you would need an update of the traditional BIOS.
  But the fact is that ONLY focused on the victory of BIOS is available on the Toshiba page and it can be updated only the execution of a Windows operating system.

  But as far as I know the local ASP (certified partner) in your country could update the BIOS by using a floppy disk.

  So, if you need updated BIOS to day and don t have installed the Microsoft Windows operating system then you will need to contact the guys ASP.

  Good bye

• Questions about the discs of recovery and partitioning Satellite A200-QH0

  I bought a model of Satellite A200-QH0 in Australia and due to the lack of forums in our country, I would like to ask a few questions here if that's ok.

  The book contains 3 partitions - partition "EISA Configuration" of 1.6 GB, the great partition of the BONE and the recovery partition. So I did the recovery DVD? s using the Recovery Disc Creator tool, as we are not provided with a real disk. But I would like to know what will make these records? My questions:

  1. they really will return that disc hard back to the _exactly_ how he was including the partition layout and software pre-installed?
  2 will be the recovery DVD works even if the disk has been repartioned? I would like to divide the system partition to give space for the files of data etc. But this extra partition will stop the recovery procedure works correctly?

  Please understand that I'm not interested in reformatting the entire disk. I want to just split the partition from the OS. But in case I need to replace the disk in the future or something, I would like to know how to close to 'original', these disks will make me, no matter what I do on the disc?

  Thank you
  Dave

  Hello

  I m not 100% sure how recovery works on the Australian laptops computers Toshiba, but I presume that the restore CD contains the image of Toshiba with the operating system Windows, drivers, tools and utilities.
  I think that if you want to use the recovery CD then the whole HARD drive will be formatted and all partitions will be erased.

  I think that the recovery partition is not created using the recovery CD because the CD of restoration has already been created for the recovery partition is no longer necessary

  I think I can help you
  This is a known issue for me I m an owner of a series of Satellite A and from time to time I m here in the forum and I read the interesting discussions

  I found an answer to your problems, it seems that there are two versions of the BIOS;
  A version of Win XP and one for the Vista operating system.

  If you use the Win XP on your laptop you must update the BIOS to the XP version. This will help to solve the problem with the FN keys

  Someone here in the forum posted this solution and I think it should help you too.

  Best regards and have a nice day ;)
