Windows 7 on a Toshiba Tecra A2 PTA20A

Hello

Had serious problems with XP on my Toshiba, so I installed Windows 7 on there. It seems to work fine, but the wireless card does not appear in Device Manager.

How can I get wireless to work (Intel 2200BG I think) on Windows 7? And are there generic drivers, that I can use for the sound (or specific toshiba)

see you soon

Tecra A2 only is certainly not supported for Win7 and Toshiba does not have drivers for this model of laptop. You can try to test the functionality of WLAN card with Vista driver. The sound can be problematic. Test it with Vista driver too.

Generic drivers are not known to me, but you can try Googling arround check it out.

    Is there any problem in Device Manager with the modem? There is a yellow question mark? I'm not 100% sure but I think that you will always have this problem with test tone if the modem is not properly plugged into the phone line.

    Have you ever had some problems trying to make the connection to the internet provider?

  • Toshiba Tecra A3 - problem with Port Replikator III

    Hello

    I have a problem with a Toshiba Tecra A3 combined with a Port Replikator III. Both work very well together until you disconnect the laptop computer. After you start the Toshiba Tecra A3 without the Docking Station, everything is always ok. But when I anchor again and start it, Win XP is not able to display the logon session on the external monitor screen. All configurations, I did (for example only display on external monitor) with the mobile extension module are only available after login. But when I don't see the logon screen, I can't do that; (o). so, does anyone have a solution how can I use the external screen after the boot (without using the FN + F5) key.

    any help is much appreciated
    Thank you
    Mario

    Hello

    As far as I know logon window can be displayed on the primary monitor only. Computers laptop LCD is set to a primary, and it cannot be changed. As you can see this option is grayed out in display properties.

    Good bye

  • Toshiba Tecra M2 - very slow performance

    Hello

    During the last quarter of 2004, we invested on two Toshiba Tecra M2 with Windows XP SP2 and standard generation of Tosh.

    In addition, laptops are configured for our use and loaded with the following software:
    * MS Office 2003
    * Autocad 2002
    * Photoshop CS

    Configured for our use and now affected by a shift of noticeble during the task execution when:
    * opening closing documents MS Office 2003 Pro power switch of the network)
    * create opening files and of new designs/plot in Autocad 2002 (with the latest service packs and patches loaded)
    * loading Photoshop CS and various applications.

    Because of the date of purchase of these laptops, we were informed by our reseller, we cannot return these items. Now, we're certainly stuck with them, but I need to find a solution as to why they are slow in performance, fix it right and lie to my peers.

    Thanks for your time.

  • Toshiba Tecra 8000, monitor problem

    Hello

    I have a problem with my laptop Toshiba Tecra 8000, there is a green line with a width of 1 pixel on the screen of my laptop which does not disappear. the laptop is almost 2 years old. is there a possibility that it could be repaired? Thanks in advance,
    Mark Kuiper

    Hello

    interesting would be if the green line is permanently on the screen during startup or 'just' that Windows runs.

    But never mind, the laptop Tecra series three-year warranty.

    So in this case you can give it to a Toshiba repair for a control center upward.

    Hello

    First of all, you need to install the Chipset utility. Follow this link.

    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=it

    Once empty it first developed for laptop. Then Tecra. Tecra S series, then S1. Then XP operating system. Then click on search. Once this happens find the chipset utility and install it. Then, you can install any other drivers you need well enough in any order you want. But you must first install the Chipset utility. I hope this helps you and solve you this problem. Good day!

    Well, I do not recommend to install Windows 8 but earn 8.1
    The hardware requirements is very similar (for the most part the same), but win 8 is passed. So there s no need to start by winning 8.

    To use the win (Win 8) 8.1 you need computer / laptop support:

    Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster
    RAM: 1 gigabyte (GB) (32-bit) or 2 GB (64-bit)
    Free hard drive space: 16 GB (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)

  • Windows Update includes the Toshiba driver updates?

    Hello

    Windows Update includes the Toshiba driver updates?

    And if yes, do you know what drivers are included in Windows Update and that would be excluded?

    Thank you...

    Hello

    Microsoft and Toshiba updates are two different things.
    Toshiba drivers are offered by Toshiba, and these drivers are tested by Toshiba. Toshiba has developed a small tool called TEMPRO. This tool runs in the background and look for information on available updates.
    All updates of drivers, tools and utilities does not update automatically. It can be done by the owner of the laptop. TEMPRO just pick up info on the net and to inform the owner of the laptop.

    Microsoft updates are probably known to you. These updates are Microsoft and Toshiba has no influence on this.
    When you check the list of available updates may have included updates to the WLAN/LAN card, driver of the touchpad and device ACPI Toshiba x 64. This is defined as optional updates and cannot be updated.

    To be honest you should not update at all. For hardware use drivers provided by Toshiba only.

  • Toshiba Tecra 9000 noise

    Hi all

    I just bought the Toshiba Tecra 9000 Pentium 3 1 GHz, 256RAM of ebay. The problem is that after the start of some video applications or sometimes even opening new Web site which is in Macromedia Flash, I hear a strange noise, which I think is the hard drive. The sound is similar to the CDROM when you put there CD and he starts reading.

    Maybe someone has any suggestions about who and can help out me. Maybe I have not configured something right.

    Thank you in advance.

    Hi mimi,

    have you bought also the recovery and the tool & Utilities CD with the laptop? To exclude a software failure, you need to retrieve the laptop!

    If you do not, you should your system clea. Perhaps it is a program which read or write to the hard disk at high speed!
