Need ATI XP driver on Satellite Pro A200-15G

Hi,
I'm italian so my english will be not very well :)
I've installed XP on my toshiba Satellite Pro A200-15G.
I've searched the display driver for this model of notebook on this toshiba site, but i didn't find it.
Where i can find it?
Ah, another thing: i've installed xp without update bios for xp... is necessary to update it?
Last thing (for the buyers of a satellite/satellite pro a series): what is the autonomy of your notebook's battery (in various modes and in various SO)?
Thanks.
Bye

Hi,
if you need a display driver then go here:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp
or especially for ATI cards you can go here:
http://www.omegadrivers.net/
Regarding BIOS: yes, if you want some things on your machine working properly then update your BIOS to the XP version.
Hm, battery lifetime... should be about 1 1/2 to 2 hours
But I am not sure, it depends from so many things.

  • Cannot install the XP Modem driver for Satellite Pro A200

    I'm a local network admin for Newbold College. We have new A200 laptops and we need XP Pro on some of them. I have tried to install the modem driver as one of the last drivers downloaded from the european support site. I also tried to Canadian site as well.
    The driver install program doesn't seem to do anything. I tried to manually install the driver from one of Windows modem Agse/Toshiba software modem, but I have com port issues and I can't quire the modem.
    Can anyone help me please!!!!!!!

    Hi
    What to say; I have checked the Toshiba Europe driver page and found all necessary and important XP drivers for the Satellite Pro A200.
    Please note that the Toshiba European driver page provides XP drivers for 3 different Sat Pro A200 series!!! There is PSAE1, PSAE4 and PSAE7 series.
    Please choose the right one!!!!
    Furthermore you will find an installation instruction txt file on the Tosh page.
    In this file you will find a right and important installation driver order!!! Please follow these steps!!!
    I dont know exactly why you get the modem com port problems but I assume that a new XP and driver installation should solve this strange issue.
    Good luck

  • Satellite Pro A200 PSAE7: Where to get the ATI driver for Win XP

    Hi,
    I have bought Toshiba Satellite Pro A200 PSAE7 and it was with Vista on from the beginning. I decided to upgrade (/downgrade) it to XP but there's problem with driver to graphic card (Radeon HD 2600 Series).
    I can't find anywhere ati drivers (actually I found it on ati.amd.com site, but on this forum I read that Toshiba drivers are modified so that Radeon won't be overheating) and I'm wonderig if Vista ones will run on XP (I've downloaded all drivers but ati one)?
    ...and is it possible to downgrade my Vista to XP Pro through Miscrosoft site (or something like that) or do I have to reinstall it using my old copy (provided with old Toshiba)?
    Ps.
    Sory for my English
    Ps2.
    Is it so important to install drivers in proper order?

    > When trying to download driver from Toshiba web I get message:
    >"This software has not been officially tested and therefore must be at the users own risk."
    >I agree, but still can't download it.
    You have to switch the option to Accept!!! Then the button Download will be activated!!!
    >I found driver on ati site, but read somewhere that for Toshiba notebooks drivers are modified so that >graphic card won't overheat. Is that true? Or original drivers (of ati group) are as good as Toshiba ones?
    As mentioned in this forum, the original ATI or nVidia drivers are designed not for the notebook usage!!! The GPU drivers are designed for the graphic cards which are used in the desktop PCs!!! Such graphic cards are equipped with an own, big cooling module in order to prevent the hardware from overheating!!! The notebook GPUs dont support such huge cooling modules and therefore the drivers must control the performance and the temperature growth.

  • Satellite Pro A200 PSAFCA: Need Lan and display driver for XP

    Hey
    please help me!
    I have just installed XP on my new satalite pro, but i have had trouble with the drivers.
    At the moment I have installed most but from this site i can't seem to find a driver that will help my network card, nor my video NIVIDIA drive...
    any suggestions would be very valuable

    The Satellite Pro A200 PSAFCA is not known to me. I know only the Satellite Pro A200 PSAE1, PSAE4 and PSAE7. So could you please confirm your Pro A200 series?!
    If you cannot find the single XP drivers on the Toshiba page I would recommend checking the LAN and the graphic chip which is installed on the motherboard and use the XP drivers from the chip manufacture.
    If you need an graphic driver I would recommend using the drivers from the www.omegadrivers.net or www.laptopvideo2go.com site

  • Satellite Pro A200-1MI - Need driver for PCI memory controller

    I have the Toshiba Satellite Pro A200-1MI(PSAE7E) having a problem with PCI Memory Controller on my notebook.
    When I go to Device Manager it shows question mark in the tab Other Devices and when I go there, it's yellow ?(question mark) and !(exlamation mark) at PCI Memory Controller. I took and downloaded all the drivers from your site:
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU
    for XP but I am not sure what type of drivers do I have to install for PCI Memory Controller, is it bios driver or something else? I just need to know what to install to overcome that problem with my Device Manager and PCI Memory Controller.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hello akibono
    I presume you have installed clean WXP on your notebook and now you want to install all drivers, tools and utilities. Am I right about that?
    Anyway, after WXP installation you must install all drivers, tools and utilities in specific installations order. After doing this everything should be OK and every hardware component will be properly configured.
    Please install all stuff as follow:
    WXP
    Chipset driver
    Display driver
    Sound driver
    Modem driver
    Storage manager
    LAN driver
    Touchpad driver
    WLAN driver
    Toshiba Assist
    Flash Media driver
    Webcam driver
    Hardware setup
    Controls
    And so on
    I hope everything will be OK.

  • Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE4): DVD drive permanently blinking

    Hello,
    I have been using a Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE4) laptop for some time now without any major issues.
    My dvd drive (tsst crop TS-L632H) is no longer working for a few days now... More precisely, its LED is permanently orange blinking. Drivers are up to date. The eject button doesn't work either. No disc is inserted. The drive seems fine in the Windows device manager...
    If opened manually and if a disc is inserted in the drive, I can't see any data. Can't boot on the disc either.
    I'm running under Vista 32bit SP1 with the latest bios available on the toshiba website (2.40).
    Since I need to fix the frequently reported "black screen" issue before login prompt, using the windows installation disc
    Any help would be really appreciated.
    Thanks !

    Hi
    According to you page you are not able to boot from any CD or DVD, not even from the Toshiba Recovery CD.
    Am I right?
    To be honest, Ive no idea why such issue happened but in my opinion its related to the hardware malfunction and only the replacement could helps
    I dont know how old you notebook is but maybe the warranty is valid and you could replace it for free
    What do you think?

  • Satellite Pro A200 - Can't install Windows 7 due missing CD/DVD driver

    A message box saying: A required CD/DVD drive devise driver is missing. If you have a driver floppy disk, CD, DVD or USB flash drive, please insert it now.

    Best regards

    Hi Peter,
    Do you try an upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 at the moment? If yes please try a new and clean installation of Windows 7. Does this work?
    Another question: Is your CD/DVD drive working properly or is it listed with yellow exclamation mark in device manager?
    In your case I would try to remove the drive from device manager and restart the notebook. After this the drive will be recognized automatically.

  • Satellite Pro A200 - Hard Drive has lost half it's memory

    I have a toshiba Satellite Pro A200 running Vista. Vista came preloaded and I don't have any discs for it. I have had it since new (Sept 2007). The hard drive is split into drives. Recently my C drive has competely filled up and I now have no space left (55gigs gone) I store no data in this drive. All my media (music, photos, other files) is in my E drive. I have to run C Cleaner each time I boot up in order to have enough space to operate the computer. I also have to delete all but the most recent restore point in order to function.
    I am at my wits end and think I must have a virus or something. Is there a way to restore the computer to 'new'? I have all my files backed up on an external hard drive so I don't mind starting from scratch. Bearing in mind I have no install discs as Vista came pre-loaded.
    Can anyone help????? please!

    If you don't have any disc and if you didn't get any disc with your notebook that means your notebook was delivered with HDD recovery image and this image is saved on second HDD partition in folder called HDDRecovery.
    Recovery disc can be created using preinstalled Toshiba recovery disc creator. I don't know if you still have all this.
    The whole story with HDD is somehow strange to me. If your notebook has two partitions and partition C is full I am asking myself what is with second partition. It must be pretty empty.
    What is capacity of second HDD partition?
    What is free space on this second partition?
    You wrote about E drive. What is E drive?
    You must understand that nobody of us know what are you doing exactly, what programs are installed on your notebook. You wrote about no saving data on partition C. Maybe you are wrong about it. Maybe you download many torrents and they are saved somewhere on HDD. who knows?
    Do you have some friends with good PC knowledge? Try to find someone who can take a look onto preinstalled system and check what is going wrong there.

  • WXP WLAN Driver installation on Satellite Pro A200

    Hello,
    I installed Windows XP SP2 for a customer on Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE7E) and installed after is talked to the German support hotline every driver like in the test-instal.txt but I don't get the Atheros WLAN card work.
    It is an ar5bxb72 from Atheros, but no way.
    I get every driver in that list working with the hardware but not the WLAN-card although I installed it like in the list.
    Anybody got a hint for me?
    Greets
    Marco

    Hi dude
    Are you sure the notebook was equipped with the Atheros WLan card? According to some information which I found in the internet, this notebook was delivered with Intel or Atheros WLan card!
    I have checked the Toshiba page provides an Intel WLan drivers and Atheros Wireless Lan Client Manager. The Wireless Lan Client Manager is not the driver but only the tool which helps you configure your wireless network card and gives you more configuration options than the windows embedded configuration functions.
    I would recommend downloading the WLan driver from this Toshiba WLan portal:
    http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/
    By the way; if you use XP on this Vista preinstalled notebook then you will have to update the BIOS to the XP version too!
    Greetings ;)

  • Satellite Pro A200-1MN correct sata contoller needed for xp install

    hi
    i thought i had the correct file for my xp install on my floppy but the windows install still can't see my hard drive
    i don't have the recovery media hence this problem
    Satellite Pro A200-1MN
    PSAE4E-01R00WEN
    i have it as 82801 sata ahci controller and ich8m storage controller 2850
    it doesn't seem to like them though, can anyone help?

    Usually this option you can find in advanced BIOS options and you can choose between AHCI and compatibility. Option is SATA controller mode.
    Anyway, it is better to install OS with AHCI mode and have full HDD performance.
    Download storage manager and there you will find folder called F6flpy.
    There you will find ICH8M_32bit folder with WXP sata driver.
    When you start WXP installation use F6 button to load SATA driver. After doing this HDD will be recognized properly and you will be able to continue WXP installation.

  • Satellite Pro A200-PSAE7: Blue Screen error - ati2dvag infitive loop

    > I've got Satellite Pro A200-PSAE7 with ATI HD2600 Mobility Radeon. I've downgraded to XP SP2. I get blue screen saying that ati2dvag went infitive loop quite constantly. Any solution to this?
    Usually the BSOD appears due to the serious software issue or hardware malfunction.
    In my opinion its a software (driver) issue.
    I presume the BSOD appears why playing some games in most cases the graphic driver must be updated.
    If the XP driver from the Toshiba page will not help you could try the graphic drivers from the www.omegadrivers.net site. The 3rd party drivers should run on your notebook. But note; 3rd party drivers can be used only at your own risk!
    > Why standard display drivers from ati.com do not work? (While on my friends laptop with also hd2600 mobility radeon works fine).
    The original ATI drivers cannot be installed on a easy way because such drivers dont support an overheating protection. The Toshiba GPU drivers are a little bit modified and support an overheating protection. Such protection is necessary and important because the notebook graphic cards are not equipped with huge cooling module like the GPUs on for the desktop PCs.
    The temperature increases on the notebooks much faster and therefore the graphic driver have to control the GPU performance to decrease the internal temperature.
    Therefore its always advisable and recommended to use the Toshiba drivers ;)

  • "Common module" missing for XP on Satellite Pro A200

    Hello everyone,
    I received my Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE7) laptop with a Vista OS.
    I have made a fresh & clean XP installation on it using the Toshiba's installation instructions document.
    Everything is working fine except my Fn+F6 Fn+F7 Fn+F8 hotkeys for Wireless and screen brightness.
    I have made a few search over the internet and I found that page :
    - http://support.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB7401VB0003R01.htm
    Looks like that I need to setup "common module" installer in order to make work those hotkeys.
    But the problem is that the "common module" is not available on the driver page for XP ....
    If I change the OS type to Vista there is "Value Added Package" available but it's not compatible on XP ...
    I tried to download and setup a "common module" for Sat Pro A120 model but i got an "TVALZ" error during the installation ....
    Did Toshiba support forget to put online a "common module" installer for XP for Sat Pro A200 ??
    How can I make work my Fn+F6 Fn+F7 Fn+F8 hotkeys ?
    Any help will be really appreciated !
    Thanks,

    Hello darkmatterman,
    First of all thanks for you reply and for your tips about the Bios version (Vista vs XP).
    The first day I received my laptop on Vista OS, I already made a Bios update "the Vista compatible one". So my Bios is v1.70 actually.
    I will try monday morning to update the latest XP compatible Bios version which is v5.20...
    Do you know if it's possible to apply the latest XP bios upgrade on a bios which was already been upgraded with a Vista compatible version ?
    And if the XP comptabile Bios upgrade works, do you think that I will need to setup my fresh XP again (with all Toshiba drivers & utils setup order...) ?
    Regards,
    Can
