BSOD on Equium M50-244 - error caused by ati2dvag.dll

OS Windows XP SP2, display ATI Radeon xpress 200m series.
Hi have a Equium M50-244 with a problem. Seems to work fine but suddenly goes to blue screen with message:
A problem has been detected has been shut down to prevent damage.
The problem seems to be caused by following file ati2dvag.dll
If this is the first time you have seen this stop screen restart computer if this screen appears again take these steps
The device driver got stuck in an infinite loop this usually indicates a problem with the device itself or with device driver programming the hardware incorrectly.
Please check with your hardware device vendor for any driver updates.

beginning dump of physical memory
Have tried updating drivers from Toshiba, ATI and omega this has made no difference.
Of course there could be a fault with chipset but diagnostics does not identify any problems. If I run windows in safe mode display is ok.
Other forums seem to report similar problems with this model and ATI chipset, but no-one seems to have solution. Can anyone help?

Hi
Check this thread http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=16605
By the way: the Internet is full with such discussions but the fact is that this happen on different desktops and laptops. It has nothing to do with YOUR notebook model directly.

  • WEP Encryption Key not remembered when restarting the Equium M50-244

    I am running an Equium M50-244 Laptop, with a BT Home Hub 7838 wireless router. Nearly everytime I power up this notebook it has no wireless connection. I therefore have to go into Control Panel, Network Connections, and get it to find a new connection.
    Then have to type in WEP Encryption Key number twice to get a new connection.
    This is obviously a lengthy procedure so I need to get the Laptop to recognise the Encryption Key and store it for the next time I power on.
    I am running Windows XP Home with Service Pack 2, and a Norton Anti Virus and Firewall.
    Any help would be much appreciated
    Peter

    Hello
    I agree with Louis. Your WLAN cards support WPA encryption and, if possible, you should use it.
    Anyway: for WLAN configuration try to use Windows settings and defined WEP password should be remembered for your WLAN. I have configured it on many different notebooks and after choosing the listed WLAN the password was already defined and only thing that must be done is to click on button Connect.

  • Equium M50-244: what upgrades are possible and worth to do?

    hi all, i have just got a EQUIUM M50-244, i got it yesterday from pc world, and im well please with it!
    but i was wondering if there are any worth while upgrades? is it possible to clock the cpu? im looking at more memory, is there a limit to what i can fit? also is a bigger hard drive possible? any thing else thats worth doing please let me know
    thanx, your friendly local snake

    Hi
    General its not possible to upgrade the CPU or the graphic card but you can upgrade the memory and the HDD on this notebook.
    You can upgrade the memory to max 2048MB memory (2x1024MB) and you can use a HDD with the 80GB maybe also 100GB.
    The supported memory modules are:
    DDR2-400/533 256MB (PA3389U-1M25)
    DDR2-400/533 512MB (PA3412U-1M51)
    DDR2-400/533 1GB (PA3411U-1M1G)
    Hope I could help.

  • Equium M50-244 - SM Bus Controller - any drivers available?

    Notebook bought with XP Home, but has been changed to run with XP Professional.
    Pulled down all the drivers I could find from the Tosh site, but in Device Manager under Other Devices is SM Bus controller marked with a ? and an exclamation mark.
    Any suggestion where I might find this driver(s).
    Is this part of the chipset? or is it some other device?

    Hi
    Equium M50-244 has a PSM59E-xxx part number.
    In this case you have to use the right driver.
    On the Toshiba page you will also find a installation instruction how to install the drivers.
    You have to follow this guideline.
    PS: Just for info XP pro uses the same drivers like XP home

  • Equium M50-244 has bluescreens and password was requested

    Hi all,
    I need your help here please, my wifes Equium M50-244 just froze after 15 min. I thought taking the battery out would fix the problem, only now when you turn on laptop I get blue screen and a request for password that was not supplyed with computer.
    Can anyone help before she beats the life out of me (shes big).

    Either this is an incredible coincidence or I am now trying to fix your wife's computer. Let me know if it is the former.
    Toshiba laptops have the facility to set a password to access the computer. Acording to the manual for this model, this can be done by running the Toshiba Password Utility software in Windows. The password gets stored on the CMOS chip that holds the BIOS data. The purpose of the Toshiba Password Utility is to deny a thief access to the computer but it is fraught with risk because of the difficulty in resetting the password if it is lost (or manifests spontaneously as in this case).
    In principle you can reset the CMOS and therefore remove the password but to do this you would need to disassemble the laptop to gain access to the motherboard in order to temporarily remove the small battery thereon. I have not been able to find instructions on how to disassembe this model.
    Toshiba Technical Support may be able to supply a password that will give you the chance to reset the access password. I'm not sure if you can reset it directly to null by this means but the Toshiba Password Utility will let you remove the password if you know what the password is. Catch 22 is that you have to convince Toshiba that you are the bona fide owner.
    Or you may need to return the computer to a Toshiba Service agent.
    Or on Ebay (US) you can buy a USB Password Removal Key. I think this is aimed more towards thieves than legitimate owners.

  • Equium A60-157: error caused by device driver

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to write my PhD thesis at the moment and am being hampered by my laptop! It keeps randomly bringing up the blue screen of death and then restarting; when it's all loaded up, I get a 'serious error' message that says 'error caused by device driver'. As far as I know, all the programs I have are compatible... I was advised to restore factory settings, which I did a few months ago. And I've had the BIOS update suitable for my computer. But it's still happening!!
    If it helps, the programs I use daily are Microsoft Word, Access and Powerpoint, Internet Explorer and MSN Messenger. I don't run any high spec games (only Minesweeper occasionally!)
    What can I do? Does anyone else have this problem? Any advice would be much appreciated, as these crashes are not helping my work!
    Thanks...

    Hi guys,
    I seem to have a similar problem. About a month ago I reinstalled windows using the product recovery cd and three days later I started getting a blue screen. But the error occurs only when shutting down (not always, I can`t see any pattern)- right before the shut down itself, windows has already logged off and settings are saved. The error code is 0x50 and the report says it is caused by an unknown device driver.
    The day that stop error started I installed an educational software (Leankey's) for which I used a virtual cd. But at the initial launch the program "freezed" and I had to close it and open it again, there wasn`t a problem. After that I tried to copy some files on a blank cd (without using any burning software) and it said that the device was not accessible.
    I tried disabling DMA but that didn`t help. In the event viewer I saw error messages that say the cdrom has a bad block. I`m not sure whether this has something to do with the stop error but they started at the same time. I can still burn cds with other software (nero). I tried to update the device driver but it didn`t help.
    Maybe I have to uninstall the driver first but from the device manager when I check the properties of the device (driver details) it uninstalls the device and the driver remains. Should I delete the driver files manually? I have checked all device drivers and they are all compatible. All installed software is digitally signed. (I immediately removed the Learnkey`s software but I think it has changed some dll...
    I will appreciate any suggestions.
    P.S. When I run the toshiba diagnostic tool it skips testing the cd/dvd but it doesn`t say why.

  • M50-244 XP Pro installation

    Just bought a M50-244 and want to install XP Pro on it. I have downloaded all the drivers listed on the support page but there are some on the installation list that aren't available for download - any idea where I get them from?
    The ones I need are:
    Atheros Client Utility
    DVD Player
    DLA
    RecordNow
    Sun Java Runtime Environment
    Power Management
    Cheers

    Hello
    Client utility must not be preinstalled because the WLAN connection can be configured using Windows settings. Power saver tool is available on Toshiba download page. Please check it for Equium M50-244 (PSM59E). There you will find power saver driver version 2.35.0.2.C and Power saver utility version 7.03.07C.
    Before you install them check Installations instructions document to see the right installations order.
    Bye and good luck!

  • Equium M50 will not recognise the LAN port - error: Network Cable unplugged

    I own a Toshiba Equium M50 and have problems with the Marvell Yukon 88E8036 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller.
    I used to connect via an 'ADDON' Modem/ADSL Switch and had no problems. I then replaced the ADDON with a 'NETGEAR' DG834G ADSL Modem/Router to gain the wireless port, and since then my machine will not recognise the LAN port. <error: Network Cable unplugged>.
    I know that the cables are OK as I used them with other laptops and had no trouble. I can also plug in a PCI card to connect without any problems. It looks to me as if the Marvell Yukon 88E8036 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller has a problem with the netgear Modem/Router.
    Anyone out there with a similar experience and some advice/suggestions?
    PLEASE

    Hi
    For me it doesnt show like a LAN card problem but your router is a problem.
    Check the device manager if the LAN card was properly recognized. If there are no yellow exclamation marks so everything is ok!
    You can try to delete the LAN card from the device manager and after new reboot install the LAN driver again.
    The issue has stared after installing or connecting the new Netgear modem router.
    Therefore I would recommend to checking firstly the settings or to update the firmware on this router.
    I have found additionally these useful websites

  • Equium M50: Have no windows recovery CD?

    I have recently purchased a Toshiba Equium M50 laptop computer and have been given no windows XP Home recovery CD's in the event of ever having to re-boot the system. I assumed at the time that I would be able to make my own copy from the hard drive but this doesn't seem possible or if it is I'm not sure how to do it.
    I've been told that Toshiba should supplt these. Is this true? If so, how do I go about getting these CD's sent to me? Your help would be greatly appreciated.

    Toshiba do not supply Windows XP install CDs only a Product Recovery CD/DVD in the event of an unrecoverable error. This is because the disc has all the required drivers and software pre-installed and finely configured. It also avoids the nagging issues regarding software licensing and activation. I can understand your need to have a boot CD but I would recommend you create something like BartPE instead. - http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder
    In the event of a problem BartPE will provide you with a Windows XP working environment that boots directly from the CD-ROM. Not only that it also fully supports networking and external USB flash/hard drive drives perfect for backing up important data.

  • Equium M50-164 - Touchpad problem if AC/DC adaptor is connected

    Hi
    Can anyone help? My Toshiba Equium M50-164 has an intermittent problem with the touchpad. Sometimes its fine, other times the cursor will jump around the screen uncontrollably then just lock up, the problem goes away when I remove the power cable and returns when it is reconnected.
    Other times it is fine with the power cable connected, this suggests possibly the power supply is causing a problem to me, but I was hoping someone with more experience could give me some advice.
    Thanks in advance.
    lbansal

    Hi
    Are you using an original Toshiba AC/DC adaptor or one from a 3rd party manufacture?
    Its not easy to say what the reason is, it could be a problem of AC/DC adaptor or mainboard.
    I think the best way is you contact the nearest authorized service provider. Go to them with the notebook and AC/DC adaptor and ask a technician for help. They can check the notebook and hardware.
    Good luck! :)

  • Error in crawl log "Error while crawling LOB contents. ( Error caused by exception: Microsoft.BusinessData.Infrastructure.BdcException The shim execution failed unexpectedly - The method or operation is not implemented..; SearchID "

    Hi 
    I get the following error in my crawl logs
    "Error while crawling LOB contents. ( Error caused by exception: Microsoft.BusinessData.Infrastructure.BdcException The shim execution failed unexpectedly - The method or operation is not implemented..; SearchID "
    Because of this i suspect, the search results are not including those aspx pages marked as "Hide physical urls from search".
    This error is not available in the another environment where the aspx pages are coming in the results.
    Thanks
    Joe

    Hi Joe,
    Greetings!
    Reset the index and re-crawl. That usually clears it
    If you are using NTLM authentication, then make sure that you specified the PassThrough authentication for crawling
    Probably you need to debug the BDC code that underlies the external content types.

  • Getting Error - Cause: Status of the batch is not 'Completed' in OIM 11g R2 during Trusted Recon

    Hi All
    I am new to OIM 11g R2. I am trying to create custom connector for trusted recon. The case is to migrate the users from 10g to 11g R2. The recon event is created but it is in Event Recieved status and when I re-evaluate the event, its giving error - Cause: Status of the batch is not 'Completed'.
    I saw in some posts to change the recon batch size parameter to 0 and restart the server. I have done that but still I am facing the same issue.
    There is no child data in the attribute mapping and user login is set as key.
    Any inputs are welcome on how to get rid of this error.
