USB devices not seen on Satellite Pro A60

Hello

I'm having a problem with my laptop Satellite Pro A60 running Windows XP Home: it is simply not to see all devices at all. Devices (USB, fan keys) are to be supplied with electricity, but I can find no trace of them on the computer anywhere. It is even not complain that they are not recognized - it's as if they were not there. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers of hub USB root/controllers, but that has not helped.

It is the latest in a string a glitches that can be helpful to know: a few weeks ago, the ATI Mobility Radeon 7000 IGP suddenly caused windows crash at boot time. I could just sort the problem by updating the bios and reinstall the ATI drivers (all toshiba). It is not of course the relevance, but after the bios update I also improved the 6 F-secure antivirus software. XX to 7.01.

Usually, I try to get as much as I can by reading these forums but I'm not a guru of computing and on this one, I'm out of ideas - because Windows is not identify any fault, I don't even know what to look for on google... Someone has an idea?

Thank you very much

Hmm, you said that you have already reinstalled the drivers of USB controllers/root hub.

But maybe you should try to make this again as a result of this procedure;
-Disconnect all USB devices
-go to the Device Manager and change the view to display hidden devices.
-Open the tree of the USB controller and remove all controllers.
-Restart the computer and wait until the OS has installed everything again.
-Then plug the USB devices to the USB ports for laptop

If this does not help, it would be desirable to recover the laptop with the Toshiba Recovery CD supplied.

Good luck

    Hello

    My experience is that USB port may stop working, but after phone restart works again. You can also try to remove the USB ports in the Device Manager, and after the scan for new hardware. The ports will be recognized and installed again.

    If there is no possible change hardware malfunction and you should contact the Service partner. I guess the unit is fairly new and warranty will cover all repair costs.

  • Satellite Pro A60 PL: message: USB device can run faster

    Hello!

    I have a problem with the USB 2.0 drivers in my Satellite Pro A60 PL. everytime when I connect the message apear theres USB 2.0 device this device can run faster. What can I do about it?

    Hi guys

    I received the same message. It s not an error but a balloon tip Windows.
    I didn't find the reason for this message because my phone supports USB 2.0 ports too and I also connected a USB 2.0 compatible device.

    I've tired to remove the Device Manager, the controllers and the USB hubs and updated the Win XP operating system to the last State. I've also updated the driver chipset but sometimes (not always) this message again using a disc HARD 2.5 USB.

    I read in some professional computer magazines that this message is normal and it might appears with some SATA external USB hard drives. So you can ignore it.
    It s nothing serious.

  • Re: Satellite Pro A60 - PCMCIA WLAN card does not question CardBus

    I received an A60 to upgrade for a friend and one of the necessary things is a wireless card.

    I got a 32-bit cardbus card but when I insert into the laptop, nothing happens. XP does not recognize, the oo lights do not come on the map.
    First I thought it was a faulty card but I tried other cards and get the same results and I reinstalled XP and all the drivers but nothing.

    I've seen other messages on the change of the mode in the BIOS, but there is no mention of the CardBus in the BIOS.
    The laptop uses the BIOS version 1.9. I just want to check is there something escapes me or the CardBus location just does not work?

    Hello

    Satellite Pro A60 was equipped with the 32-bit and 16-bit PCMCIA slot that supports PCMCIA card * Type-II * only!

    Have you used the * PCMCIA Type-II card?

    Perhaps you have used is not compatible PCMCIA card, you should check this first!

    You should also check the TV settings. You must choose the right channel.
    As in the previous announcement suggested, you can change the display device using the FN + F9 key combination.

    Hello

    Turn the laptop over and unscrew the cover on the ram. Then remove the ram and try to turn it on again. If it lights, put the piston inside the laptop and try again. It does not turn on? Then your ram is dead. If yes then you can replace, or have your asp replace it. If this does not resolve the problem, there is a small plastic cover that runs along the keyboard just above the keyboard. Take this off and then unscrew the fixing screws to the bottom of the keyboard. Under the keyboard, you may have a second RAM slot. If Yes, try to remove the RAM stick and turn. It work? If this isn't the case, you probably have a problem with the motherboard. If it lights fine, then you have found the issue and can replace or continue using it without the extra RAM. Hope this helps and have a nice day.

  • Module of RAM not recognized on my Satellite Pro A60

    Hello
    I have a Satellite Pro A60 and recently bought a RAM of 512 MB memory upgrade.
    I have fitted on the correct port, however, there does not appear to be be achnoledged as being there.
    Can someone help me?

    [Edited by: admin August 31 05 19:02]

    Hi Robert,.

    I guess your A60 has two RAM ports, then I suggest that Exchange you the two RAM modules autour to check if the port rather than the modules itself that is the source of the problem.

    I hope that you took of anti-static precautions before manipulating the new RAM module. They are easily damaged by a discharge of static electricity.

  • Satellite Pro A60 does not recognize DVD-R blank disc

    Can anyone help?

    I've tried several brands of DVD - R, but also blank discs DVD + R on my Satellite Pro A60, but very few of them are even recognized.

    Pioneer DV - RW DVR - K13A is supposed to work correctly when I check the Properties tab.

    I tried to watch upodates but frmwre - na .zip was not allowed to work, the D drive was not considered appropriate...

    Help, please!

    Thank you

    Hello

    What exactly do you mean? Is the drive does not support content or there is problem if you want to burn data on DVD-R media?

    Can you please explain this a little more carefully?

    Just FYI: I use the empty media TDK almost 5 years and I can say that TDK is very good for this kind of things.

  • During BIOS update by Satellite Pro A60 went down and did not start

    Hi all

    I have a Satellite Pro A60 and I've updated the bios. To halfway the update, my laptop came down and started Hasna´t since. It only give a couple of beeps (trying to tell me the bios is damaged, I guess) and turns off again.

    Tried to start with (~) key pressed (a tip I received from a friend), but without success.

    I live in a country where there is no available Toshiba dealer and I rather not ship the laptop for repair.

    Does anyone know how to fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    This doesn't sound good.
    If during the POST, the BIOS detects a problem, it will normally display an error message visual on the monitor explaining what the problem is. However, if a problem is detected before it initializes BIOS video card or a video card is not present or not detected then BIOS will play through the Speaker beeps to let you know there is a problem.
    Depending on the type of BIOS you have the BIOS can play beeps in a specific pattern to indicate what the problem is, or emits the signal even a few times indicating the problem.

    In your case, it is possible to s you used a bad BIOS or bad BIOS procedure. Both can damage the motherboard.
    To avoid such damage and mistakes, Toshiba published FAQ document.
    How to upgrade the BIOS on most of the units!

    That you should read before making updates to the BIOS!
    Unfortunately, I n t think that you can fix yourself. I think you should ask to help ASP.

  • Satellite Pro A60 does not supply power to the top

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro A60 and when I turn on the machine, the lights come on and the fan whirls for about 5 seconds and then the machine just turns off again.

    No matter if I have the battery or HARD drive in or not, the same phenomenon occurs.
    I guess it's problem of CPU or power supply Board, but I don't know.
    Is there anyone else who has had this problem and if so how is it resolved?

    Any help would be appreciated very with gratitude that I am out of warranty and need the laptop when you work from home.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I guess it can be a single processor or card mother related issue.
    If there is something wrong with the power supply for laptop card then the cell phone would not turn on, even for 5 sec.

    But it's only my personal suggestion to make sure what's exactly wrong check specifications should be necessary.

    So I think that a laptop computer technician should check it out.

  • Satellite Pro A60 does not

    When I start my Satellite Pro A60 I get the Toshiba screen, then it goes to a white screen and nothing else happens. I tried to remove the battery, disconnect it from the socket without success.

    I turned on the laptop and you press F12, but nothing happens, occasionally strange after the Toshiba screen, there will be a black screen with the words "Checking boot CD-rom" in the upper left corner and then nothing happens.

    Does anyone have any suggestions? If so could you please email me at [email protected]
    Thank you

    Hello

    Check please if the HARD drive is recognized correctly. Enter the BIOS settings and see if the HARD drive is listed there.

    You can also try to set the BIOS to the default settings and try using recovery media to see if the recovery procedure starts correctly (if the HARD drive is recognized properly).
