• Satellite Pro A120 - does not start with 4 GB of memory

  Hi all

  I'm new here so please be gentle!

  I have a Satellite Pro A120, model No. PSACOE - 037014EN and you want to increase the memory 512 MB present. I tried 2 different sets of memory 4 GB (2x2gb), but the machine does not start. I tried the different modules together and on their own but still no joy.

  Where I'm going wrong? This model will not take 2 GB memory modules?

  Any advice will be appreciated.

  Best regards

  Dr. Feelgood

  Hello

  Before changing something about your hardware, please make sure that if the computer supports the new pieces of material and, therefore, you can also consult the user manual.

  Anyway, I checked this and this laptop can only be upgraded to 2 GB maximum. This means that you can use the module of 1 GB in each slot and * no * 2 GB in each slot.

  So please bring back the memory modules and buy 2x1GB. It will work.

• Satellite Pro A120: Reset password disk HARD known through the BIOS

  Satellite Pro A120SE
  HARD drive password is known - no problem.
  According to Toshiba, the HARD drive password can be reset in the BIOS.

  By following the instructions in the documentation, a new password is entered, but a 'beep' is returned and it is clear that the password has not been changed.
  A support call was placed about 2 months there with the dealer who couldn't solve the problem. The dealer contacted Toshiba support helpdesk who told them that HARD drive password reset should be possible and they had no explanation or solution.

  Any help is greatly appreciated.
  Thank you very much

  Hello

  As much as I know the HARD drive password cannot be removed or reset.

• Satellite Pro A120: the cursor moves on the outskirts after coming out of standby

  I've upgraded to the latest version of the BIOS (3.30). Cannot find the touchpad in Device Manager, so can't see how to update the driver. Two identical machines, both have the same problem.

  Can anyone help?

  Hello

  The touchpad settings you will not find in Device Manager but in control-> mouse-> advanced Panel

  The Toshiba driver page provides various series Pro A120. If you want to download the driver for the touchpad from Toshiba page please first consult your serial number of the laptop to identify the good series

• Re: Satellite Pro A120: cannot select an option on the recovery disk

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A120, which has recently been faced with the "alert: System protection failure! "password:" problem that it turned up on some BIOS password unknown on its own in the middle of normal operation.

  I got that fixed local Toshiba ASP.
  But now, when I was about to reinstall the Windows cos she had slow, the possibility that the recovery media normally give to just format the first partition become invalid.

  In the settings dialog box, the option is always there but it cannot be selected by clicking on it (from the color of the background showing this option not valid currently)... which means that the only selection (selected by default) is format all of the 38 GB... I don't want to do.

  Someone knows what is wrong and how can I solve this problem.

  I assume that you are using Windows XP and the restore CD also contains the XP operating system.
  It s also interesting if this option has worked in the past?  :|

  However, it s really mysterious that the solution cannot be executed and unfortunately I do not know why it happened

  In the worst case, you'll have to back up data from the HARD drive and format the whole HARD drive :(

• Re: Satellite Pro A120-189 - RAM who do I take for the upgrade?

  Hello everyone

  I want to upgrade the RAM for my Satellite Pro A120-189, model number PSACIE-05V021EN, as the laptop is quite slow (I use Vista 32 bit business).
  I was wondering what is the maximum RAM for my laptop, and how compatible RAM module I might add (for now, I have 1 GB of RAM).

  Thank you in advance for your help!

  Hello

  I checked the specification of your laptop on the Toshiba page and this laptop can be upgraded to 4 GB of RAM. This is why you must use two modules of 2 GB with DDR2 (533 MHz) technology.

  You can get new RAM to each computer store or authorized service provider. I have good experiences with high-quality Kingston modules.

• Satellite Pro A120 - clock system is slow

  Hi all,

  Since a few days on my Satellite Pro A120 Windows XP system clock is slow (the data are correct).
  Usually I realize it after turning on the laptop, sometimes even when the operating system is woking! I tried all types of virus/malware/spyware scan, system restore point. I guess the problem is the used battery from the RTC. Is it possible even if the data is correct?

  Thanks in advance

  Marco

  > Sice a few days on my Satellite Pro A120 Windows XP system clock is slow (the data are correct).

  I'm afraid I n t m understand what you mean by system clock is slow.
  The BIOS clock shows incorrect data or time?

  Have you tried to change the time in the BIOS and then to check the time in Windows XP?

  Do this!

• Cannot install driver Intel 7.14.10.1227 on Satellite Pro A120

  Hello

  I have a problem with the upgrade of my Satellite Pro A120 PSAC1 - 10l with Windows Vista Professional on this topic. I want to install the display driver Intels 7.14.10.1227 I downloaded the Toshibas site. It was written that this driver is my gm945 chipset.

  When I try to lunch the installation it says that: my computer does not respond with the minimum req for the installation of the software. Even in the Readme file, it is said that it is for my computer. Help me with this!

  You are right. The Satellite Pro A120 PSAC1E seems to be equipped with the Intel 945 GM Express Chipset graphics card chipsets.

  I checked the page of the Toshiba driver and found another; Intel 7.14.10.1147 driver version.

  Please check if this version can be installed correctly on your system.

• Praise for Toshiba - I own a Satellite Pro A120 model: PSAC1A - 00K 005

  Hi all

  Here's a bunch of praise from a proud Australian customer!

  I currently own a Satellite Pro A120 (model: PSAC1A - K 00, 005) Windows XP Professional... I do not have an ounce of trouble with this computer and not have it to a Toshiba service center in the almost three years I've owned it so far! This computer received training from me at the moment and never gave me any major problems!

  The only problem I had (and it wasn't linked computer) was that my modem to broadband wireless gave the soul and I had to have a professional appearance of home - COMPUTER problem is the modem! I had previously updated a week before and it overloaded for sodomy and he said, "I don't want to play more!" and stopped working! This then cost me $ 299 for a new modem and on the reverse a new first a loser who has been blamed by my ISP and I went back and got a new free! What prompted my parents to go out and buy a Satellite A300 (unknown model yet!) so that they can use it in their business!

  Toshiba, you are to be congratulated on a great product and I will buy only a portable Toshiba in the future!
