Finally came to the point where she needed a reconstruction and thus kill in the xp disc has the downloaded set jolly I thought has all the drivers of the Tosh support site, but even when specifically install the driver wireless for this model, it does not seem to install as the rest of the drivers and I don't seem to be getting anywhere. I know that this laptop supports wireless as it worked to rebuild them.

  Hello

  Have you tried to install the WLan driver right?

  The Toshiba driver page provides Wlan drivers for Agere, Toshiba and Cisco Wlan cards.
  In my view, this problem is simply to choose wrong driver.

  At the bottom of the unit, you should find the tag that provides information about the integrated wireless network card.

  Take a look at the label and you should find the right card Wlan factory.

• Tecra 9100 - no wireless connection

  Can anyone help please?

  The wireless in the toolbar icon has a red x and will not let me connect even though I see my router.
  Can someone tell me how to solve this problem? I have Tecra 9100 with Windows XP SP3.
  Thank you

  Hello

  The icon in the toolbar with a red cross?

  Well buddy, have you checked if the WLan card is properly recognized in Device Manager?
  Usually a first step to clarify if the wireless card is ok or if something breaks down.
  In the device-> network card Manager, you should see the wireless network card.
  If there is a yellow exclamation point, then try to update the WLan driver.

  If the driver has been installed correctly and there is no yellow exclamation mark then the next step would be checking the settings of network connections.

  Check if the wireless network connection is enabled (Start button-> settings-> network connection)

• Tecra 9100 wireless network problem

  I'll have a chance by putting my Tecra 9100 with my home wireless network. The network seems to work very well. My other laptop connects to it without any problems and I can connect the Tecra with the ethernet cable. But the wireless connection, it cannot be successfully established by the Tecra.

  She claims to be connected, but he receives no package, and could get no internet connectivity. When I try to 'fix' the connection, it sits there for a while before telling me that the IP address may not be renewed.

  I managed to connect the Tecra to the network of the next door without penalty, which suggests that there is some kind of problem with our network interface. I tried to reproduce the exact settings from my other laptop, so I don't understand what the problem is.

  Any idea would be appreciated with gratitude!

  Hello

  It's really not easy to say what is happening here. The functionality of the laptop is ok and it's very confusing if it works with other local wireless networks.

  I recommend putting your access point to the factory without some specific parameters settings and try to connect it.

  Sorry, but I don? have another idea.

• Tecra 9100: Wireless / Bluetooth Switch

  I have the above and when I press Fn + F8 I get a message on the screen.

  "Wireless is disabled. Please activate the wireless communication switch. »

  When I try and install the Bluetooth stack drivers I get as much as the driver Bluetooth installation... screen and after a bit of activity of the HD, I get a pop-up message.

  "Couldn't turn on Bluetooth monitor. Please activate the Communication of wireless switch located on the side of the main unit. »

  I think that there is a problem with the switch on the front of the laptop. I that reason for my guess. Is - fixable. Can I fix it myself. Other ideas.

  Thank you

  Hmm, don t think that the switch is the reason for this notification message.
  Did you check if the laptop supports Wlan and BT maps?

  To my knowledge, the two cards (WLan & BT) are optional on this Tecra 9100!
  I think that you should first check this! Have a look in Device Manager

• Tecra 9100 cann't find the internal wireless card

  I have Tecra 9100. Recently he started to act strange. Sometimes (rarely), it cannot find its internal wireless card or / and hang (freeze). When I check the device manager card is simply not there. After the reboot, the map pops up sometimes, but not for long.
  I checked the event viewer, but the only Error Message is:
  Source: Service Control Manager
  Event ID: 7000
  Description: The OrangeWire USB enhanced host controller service could not start because of the following error: the specified driver is invalid.

  2 USB ports are working perfect. What is the link between that message and the internal wireless card?
  Any ideas how to fix? I'm with Windows XP SP2.
  Thank you.

  I put t think the WiFi problem could be related to the USB enhanced host controller service. I don t see a consistency

  You can try several steps; first try to install the latest driver WLan.
  Access card WLan (device-> Properties Manager) properties, and then clear the option to save energy.
  Additionally, you will find different option in the Advanced tab.
  I can t Advisor was 100% what options need to be changed because each wireless network card supports different function.

  Whatever the case the advice above will not help not I think there could be something wrong with the OS files or registry keys.
  In this case, it would be very interesting to know if the installation of clean operating system might help.

• Wireless LAN on Tecra 9100 evil: card not recognized or system crashes

  I have a little problem with my tecra 9100. When I want to use my wireless network, it works sometimes and sometimes the pc does not even see the map. but when it works for awhile, then the complete system crashes! and I have to reset the tecra. now I use an external wireless (3com) and features a large, but what can be the problem?

  Hello

  Without accurate control for laptop, we can just speculate what may be the problem. If sometimes the WLAN card is not visible to the system, I guess there is a contact problem and system has no contact to the card and card cannot be detected at all.

  When it blocks for laptop may be due to loss of contact on the map. In my view the contact on the motherboard must be verified by the service. If you don't want to just use the external solution and take advantage of the WLAN functionality.

• Tecra 9100 - Ethernet is declining

  Hello

  I have Toshiba Tecra 9100 that I used to connect my ps3 to wireless internet. For some reason my Tecra is down the Ethernet of the ps3, the strange thing is if I turn the laptop off the battery only there is no problem but as soon as I plug I save it starts to give up the connection again.

  Any body know what is the problem?

  Hello

  To be honest, I don't have a specific answer to your question, but maybe you should try to install the latest drivers LAN and WLAN. Also check the properties of the device and make sure that all power saving settings are defined to the maximum level.

  In Toshiba surveillance tool when the laptop is connected to the power supply running set everything up.
  Intel Speedstep option implemented.

  I hope this will help.

• Tecra 9100 ' NMI: channel check "BSOD".

  My laptop two years Tecra 9100 1.7 Mhz computer faithful began to get a very regular blue screen of death. This occurs only when it is running on battery power and the error message is:

  Hardware malfunction

  NMI: Channel check / IOCHECK.

  Does so within approximately 30 seconds 2 minutes of running on battery power.

  I was hoping that it was a problem with corruption of driver so I ve completely flattened the thing on day 1 with a full drive reinstall with 'the CD ROM product development' and the problem persists.

  The battery should t be worn, as I have little use, I even kept it out of the machine to avoid wear out that I almost never need to use the machine in a mobile context, i.e. There is a practically new battery! It's only in the past month (since I got wireless broadband) I used the battery at all.

  Just to remind the laptop is totally stable on the sector and never blue no screening while tension in this way. The problem occurs only when powered by a battery. I flashed the Bios up to v1.6 v1.5 with no effect. The problem occurs with a completely new install from the CD ROM recovery and also when it is fully configured with XP SP2 and all the XP2 post updates.

  Anyone any idea what's causing this error? Any diagnosis I could do?

  Thank you very much.

  Tony.

  Hi Tony

  Sorry, but I have bad news for you. This message occurs if there is a problem with the main Board. I can't say exactly what it can be, but I think that some piece of hardware is not recognized correctly.

  Contact the Service partner in your country and Tony let check the laptop.

• Tecra 9100 - W-LAN-Mini-PCI-card upgrade

  Hello everyone,

  I ve got a with the W-LAN-onboard Tecra 9100 working doesn´t.
  Instead of repairing the old W - Lan Mini-PCI-card I want to move to a new standard (802. 11 b / g with 108 Mbit/s max) Mini-PCI card.

  I prefer the mini Notebook-WLAN-Gigabyte GN-WIAG02 PCI adapter.

  Is it possible to chance the card built into the Gigabyte card?

  Hello

  It s nice that you want to upgrade your wireless mini-pci network card. But I suggest you rather a card with an Atheros chipset. The best choice is perhaps a card with a Chipset of Atheros 5005GS since I upgraded my Tecra 9100 with this card and it works like charm. (and not so expensive as other s cards)

  To swap the card, you must remove the plastic cover of the keyboard and unscrew the two screws in order to release the keyboard.
  After removing the keyboard, you will find an aluminum side cover left which is set with a special torx screws. The best would be to get these torx screwdriver to loosen this bolt and remove the cover.
  After removal, you will see the map with the cables that lead to the antenna. (One white and one black) Be very CAREFUL when remove the Connector cables, because if damage you one of the cable connectors there is no return since the cables are cables "Mini-coax" and cannot be "connected."

  I warn you, just do it if you're really sure and if you know what you're doing, because I won't take any responsibility if damage you something on your machine. Otherwise, I wish good luck and would appreciate some comments on your success.

  See you soon

• Tecra 9100 and compatibility with 32-bit/3, 3V PC Cards (PCMCIA)?

  I would like to increase the power of my WIFI.

  The internal card supports 802.11 a standard only.

  The Tecra 9100 Series is compatible with 32-bit/3, 3V-PCMCIA cards?

  Hello

  According to the specifications of the computer laptop Tecra 9100 is ready WLAN and can be upgraded with standard Wi - Fi 802. 11B. I have the same WLAN card on my Tecra M1 and I'm really happy. You can buy the Wireless (PA3189U-1MPC) recommended LAN card and like to be mobile. The transfer of data is OK and you don't need a better card for this good old classic.

  It is an old map and it won't be cheap. Check it out.

• Hi speed USB via a Port Replicator advanced for a Tecra 9100?

  I have the same problem with a Tecra 9100 and upgrade to hi speed USB as a previous post where the proposed solution was to use a PCMCIA card.

  (see link: http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=24103)

  I had an idea, but I don't know if it will work and need some advice?

  Can you buy an Advanced Port Replicator that has Hi Speed USB 2.0 ports on it (like the PA3082U APR II that works with the Tecra 9100) instead of the PCMCIA card.

  If the docks of Port Replicator in the motherboard will it give you Hi Speed USB 2.0, or is the Tecra 9100 forced to USB 1.1 via hardware in the laptop itself and the Replicator will not help?

  Also if I go down the road of Port Replicator I need drivers for speed ports Hi of the Replicator to work on the Tecra 9100?

  Or to ask the question – what is the PCMIA USB 2.0 card in that advanced with HI Port Replicator speeed USB is not?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  the Tecra 9100 has NO usb 2.0 and it's a fact. Given that the Replicator has these USB ports 2.0 does not mean that your machine when it is docked to the Portrep, is able to manage USB 2.0 devices. The portrep, it's like a usb hub and behaves like. So if your machine doesn´t have it then that's it.

  And the explanation on the PCMCIA/Cardbus solution:
  The pcmcia card USB 2.0 Chipset, this is the reason why it IS a USB 2.0 device (roothub).

  I hope this was clear to you :)

  Just buy this card and you will have USB 2.0

• Tecra 9100 - unable to connect to the WLan access point

  Hello

  I have a Tecra T9100 with miniPCI WLan. I reinstalled XP Pro and all the drivers (downloaded from the Toshiba site) and I've always had a problem with Wifi:

  I can see all access point (in the windows control panel), but when I click on connect, I received a message that the access point is no more...
  He didn't ask me for the security settings?

  does anyone have an idea?

  Much thanks

  Leclere

  Hello

  To my knowledge the Tecra 9100 was equipped with the wireless LAN standard: 802. 11B mini card PCI ORiNOCO.

  You need to check if the WiFi signal is strong enough for a transmission correctly
  I think that the signal of WLan access points is not strong enough because of the distance.

• Tecra 9100: WiFi not detected by WIndows XP

  Hello! I have a Tecra 9100, which has just been reinstalled with a recovery disc and all Win XP updates and patches were made. And Toshiba questions have been corrected... BUT still my WiFi card is not found by the operating system. What could be the problem?
  My Bluetooh works all fine, and meets a power on/off, but it is there no reaction of the WiFi card. I also tried to replace the WiFi card with another, but still no action.
  Is there a "diet" only for the WiFi card that could be verified? Y other components that can be replaced? I have another computer I can take/switch components of...
  Edit: I also upgraded the BIOS to 1.60

  Hello

  The operating system recognizes the WLan card in Device Manager?
  I found information that the wireless card is an option on this unit.
  This means that there could be no wireless network card. But you suggested that you tried to install another card. Have you used one compatible?

  Moreover if you have installed the WLan card must be the 2 cables; White hand and the Brown cable to the

  Then, if everything has been installed correctly you can install WLan drivers.
  To detect the wireless network card, you need to activate the switch on the front side of the laptop, and then FN + F8.

• WLAN on Tecra 9100 - LED should go orange if the s/w keyboard shortcut NOT installed?

  I bought a Tecra 9100 that had been restored to XP SP1 and without good Toshiba utilities that most drivers seemed to be OK - for example screen OK but USB has been 1.1 until I added the Intel Chipset drivers.

  I can't get the WLAN card to work by sliding the switch (close microphone) - also, it does NOT appear in Device Manager. I spotted a post below (which was locked) where Pedro said WiFi hotkey software must be installed to make it work. Two questions:

  1 if the s/w keyboard shortcut IS NOT installed should always be able to mount the light Orange / appear in Device Manager
  2. is there an alternate download site because I tried 20 times in the last 15 hours at: http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/cmod-en-20070925121500.zip (for the common modules) and the site just seems to be 'dead' - nothing is received at all

  Thank you very much in advance - I want to become a happy member of Tosh' club... Cheers, Brian R.

  PS; The Tecra has a WiFi tag on the bottom and even a MAC address and I have not yet looked for nothing changed so much material.

  Pedro post follows:
  + Hello +.

  + Is the map original WLAN or you have upgraded on your own? What is with Device Manager, this is the card of wireless network which are listed there? +

  + For the use of WLAN, there are few requirements: +.
  + WLAN switch must not be broken or defective.
  + Wireless network card must be compatible one.
  + The WLAN antenna must be connected correctly.
  + Wireless network card must be installed properly (the right driver must be installed) +.
  + Wireless network card must be enabled in the Device Manager.
  + Wireless network card must be activated using the FN + F8 key combination (Wireless Hotkey V2.0.0.1 must be preinstalled) +.

  (1) first you should check if there is a yellow exclamation (unknown device) in device under network adapter Manager.
  If you find any unknown devices in the network adapter section then your laptop was not equipped with WLan minPCI card!
  The shortcut key has nothing to do with the WLan card status in Device Manager! The keyboard shortcut software only controls the function FN + F8.

  (2) don t know what you mean! The functions of link!
