Wireless causes to the satellite Pro 6100

Hi I have a pro 6100 and just recently, I replaced the card WiFi mini PCI card [PA3171U-1MPC] 802. 11 b with PA3236U-1MPC a / b combo. The site Web of Toshiba shows this combo Mini PCI card as being compatible with my model so compability shouldn't be a problem.

At the same time, when my PC has been upgraded, I also added a Bluetooth PA3121U-3BTM module to my PC.

Recently, I tried to connect via the wireless link and I could not do. I looked in my device manager and it has not shown that the new PCI Wireless card was recognized while previously it showed that Toshiba Mini PCI Wireless lan.

I can see now is that--

Area of personal network Bluetooth Toshiba
Intel(r) Pro/100 VE Network Connection
TRP Win Miniport
GlobalSpan USB ADSL Lan Modem

Bluetooth

Bluetooth RFBUS from Toshiba
Bluetooth RFHID from Toshiba
Toshiba Bluetooth RFCOMM
Bluetooth RFBNEP from Toshiba
I was wondering now that I have Bluetooth maybe causing this conflict?
Why is the Mini PCI card is not displayed in my device manager or go through what I wrote more high is this normal? The Mini PCI card has been attached by a computer technician and I have no doubt that it has been correctly mounted.
Thank you

I think I can solve my problem but I'm not entirely sure.

I went to the Toshiba site we and downloaded the drivers for the PCI Atheros cards {driver WiFi Atheros 802.11a/b/g with support Cisco/WPA for Windows XP / 2000 (v2.4.2.14, 11/11/2003; 3.72 M)} and now in my list I see Atheros AR5001X Mini PCI Wireless Network Adapter
I hope it is the right one?

I can now access the login box for the wireless, which is a promising sign. I can't test it at the moment because I do not have a router at your fingertips right now.

One last thing, when I press my button FN and F8 it does not bring the message that wireless is enabled. It is used for, but not now.
Anyone know why this might be?

  • The Satellite Pro 6000 motherboard is compatible with the satellite Pro 6100?

    Hello, need information about mainbord...
    Is the the same Satellite Pro 6000 and 6100 mainbord?

    Satellite Pro 6000 belongs to the PS600E series, and it supports the Celeron and PIII-M (Mobile) processor.

    The Satellite Pro 6100 belongs to the series of PS610E and supports the CPU P4 - M (Mobile).

    The two laptops are very similar so eventually Sat Pro 6000 motherboard could enter Satellite Pro 6100.

  • How to access the Satellite Pro 6100 wireless network card?

    I'm cleaning a Satellite Pro 6100 for a customer and noticed that it has built in wireless card (something they didn't know). However, I just can't work out how to access. I pushed the little switch on the side backwardsa and I rocked forward, Fn + F8 and everything else I can think. But nothing happens.

    I even found the Switch Device Network utility, but that is only to show the LAN card.

    Any ideas?

    First of all please check if Device Manager in the laptop has an integrated WiFi card. The switch WLan available on the website of the laptop does not. Laptops are delivered with different specifications, and the WLan card is optional.

    I think that the WLan card is not installed in your laptop and so you cannot use it.

  • LED flashing - need to know the Satellite Pro 6100 POST error codes

    When I tried to turn on my Satellite Pro 6100 laptop the Green DC in power light turned orange and started to blink.
    It flashes 5 times, then 3 times then repeats.

    I guess that this indicates a failure in the system, but where can I find what means this error code?

    Hello

    You can read the flashing code very easily short flashing means 0 long average 1.
    Then you read the complete code back.

    Finally, the error code must be converted into HEXADECIMAL value and then a technician of the laptop could know what means this value.

    The ASP in your country should provide details of the mentioned error.

  • How to install Windows XP Pro on W2k on the Satellite Pro 6100?

    Hello

    I brought a 2nd hand Satellite Pro, model version SP6100 (PS610E-029ZV-EN), P4 1.7 Ghz, 512 MB, 30 GB, with Windows 2000 Pro installed.

    I can't connect to my wireless router. The switch is in the correct position.
    I have been informed that there could be a conflict between wireless and Win2000 Pro installation. This is why I want to change my WinXP Pro using the key provided with the new laptop (dual operating system). However, I can't reformat using a WinXP Pro disc at first upward, the disc is ignored and Win2000 Pro. If I use the recovery cd (start with holding C and let go when it runs upward), something starts which I presume to be a sequence installation however seconds I see a reference to a (?) drive z, a brief exhibition of three rows of "invalid drive specification" and it still loads Win2000 Pro.

    Can someone advise how (or if!) Can I reformat?

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    See you soon.

    Eventually it s a bad boot command but most often it after pressing the C button the laptop should boot from the CD.
    You said something done drive and I think that the start of the player has been activated, but the drive is not able to read the media.
    For me, this looks like a disk failure.

    By the way: check in Manager device if your laptop has installed the wireless network card. In my view, that cannot connect to the router WLan because the map has not been installed. The WLan switch is available because the wireless network card is optional for this laptop. You know?

  • The best energy savings for the Satellite Pro 6100 for me?

    My method of cooling is always set to maximum performance in power savings settings and my Intel SpeedStep Technology is set to Perfomance. I read on the net that the cooling method should be set to SP and SS Intel technology must be set to auto, but I'm not sure about this. I guess I'd like some clarification on this.

    I leave my laptop on for quite long periods. What do you think is the best energy savings for me to use?

    Thank you

    Hi Rachel,

    Options to save energy of your choice will depend largely using mains or battery power.

    To use AC I should leave things as you have now, which is a maximum cooling Performance and graphics.

    For use of the battery I set the Intel on automatic and lower cooling affecting something which you give an adequate return, but this will depend very much the type of applications that you are running.

    Kind regards

  • Install the new hard drive on Satellite Pro 6100

    Hello

    I have the Satellite Pro 6100 and the hard drive has failed. Bought a new hard drive but have no idea where to begin to install it. Also, I have the product key for windows xp pro, but don't have a disc. Is there a way to get around get one, or someone has any ideas please?

    Thank you

    Michelle

    Hmmmm... It's very strange that you n t have idea how to start. Throughout history, there are only two options:
    -for the installation of an operating system you can use the original Toshiba Recovery disk that came with this laptop. If you n t have it then
    -use the Microsoft installation for the installation of the OS disc. All the drivers, tools and utilities must be installed Additionally one by one. Each of them you can find on Toshiba download page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads

    Please note: the product key at the bottom belongs to original recovery image so you probably won't be able to use it for the activation of the operating system.

    Since my laptop for some reason stop (explained in my last post), I read messages from others who are similar to my problem and some of the responses that they was that they must clean the cooling with a vacuum (vacuum) module.

    So I was wondering how to clean it and where is it? (I m not an expert on computers)

    Hello
    I am not owner of a Satellite Pro 6100 but I saw this laptop on several pictures and it seems that the fans are placed at the rear near the CC.
    If you try to vacuum dust and debris from these grids of fans.

    Hello

    I put t really understand your problem

    The European driver from Toshiba site provides all the important and necessary drivers for the Satellite Pro 6100.

    I assume you mean on the XP drivers
    Install all.

    In a first step, I recommend the installation of the common Module Chip Set Utility, display driver and then continue with the rest

    If you have installed SP2 please check the "Microsoft Windows XP SP2 update information" because some tools need to be updated.

  • [u] [b] Satellite pro 6100 + external projector problems [/ b] [/ u]

    Dear friends,

    I am trying to solve this problem:

    When I connect to the satellite Pro 6100 a 3rd party bCool XG1 DLP projector (a very good) I can see everything fine except DVD.

    I better explain: I can see the movies on the screen of the laptop, but nothing on the wall...

    Notice that I can look at these files directly on the screen, but on the wall...:
    MPEG files (Quick time Yes, but not WinmediaPlayer);
    AVI files (Quick time Yes, but not WinmediaPlayer);
    MOV files (Quick time Yes, but not WinmediaPlayer);

    DVD: (With Intervideo Windvd) Ok on the screen, but no output from the projector.

    Note that if I use the small window mode, the projector output image is correct except inside the window that is displayed in black (but is OK on the screen of the laptop).

    Who can help me?

    Thanks in advance.

    Stefano

    Hi Stefanohf,

    When you pass the output mode you have with keys FN and F5?

    also what settigs are set in the display driver? Right click on desktop, properties and parameters.

    go to advanced and nView. There should be active clone!

    Try this!

  • Re: Satellite Pro 6100: can I use RAM PC3200 modules

    Hello

    I looked on the specification for this laptop and it does not have to go on 1gig, on the site of crucial, it says to use pc2700,

    But the laptop would always fully work with PC3200 (400 MHz) in it?

    Also the laptop actually supported on 1gig?

    Thank you

    As much as I know the Satellite Pro 6100 supports a FSB 400 MHz.
    So, theoretically, you can use the modules supporting 400 Mhz too.

    It is important that you use the modules DDR SODIMM 200 pin.
    The Mhz may be different.
