i had recently upgrade memory from 2 to 4GB and from vista 32-bit to windows 7 ultimate 64-bit .I did this one week earlier.can this upgrade be the problem?

Yes,i have blue screens for 4 months now but only when i connect my toshiba with a 23" LG monitor.So,i tried to find ATI card new drivers but nothing.Also i speak with local toshiba here in Greece the only thing they said to me was to format the laptop.I did this but again nothing, once a week i had same problem and generally the performance of the combuter was very poor using alot of RAM and cpu and working in a very high temperature..But NEVER had problem without the monitor,except for high temp.
.So i added more RAM and got rid of vista with high hopes for better perfomance.Indeed everything is running better now.It is faster,cooler and can connect with my monitor withous problems.But i had my first bsod before 3 days with strange noises and
trembling screen .second was the day after and the last was yesterday withoun noises just a white screen with lines.

Re: Satellite A210-16F: Where to get newer driver for graphic card??

Hi!
I have a Satellite A210-16F laptop with a Ati Mobility Radeon HD 2600 graphic card...
After checking my device manager i found out that my graphic drivers are from 2007 which can't be good :S but for the life of me i can't find the right drivers anywhere... if you check out the screenshot, you will see that the drivers are from 2007 and after i click on "update driver" and then "search automatically for updated driver software" it never finds anything and tells me that my drivers are up-to-date :SS Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Oh, also, my OS is Vista Home Premium (32-bit)
Thank you!

One solution for your problem is, that if you upgraded your OS to Windows 7, there's a new driver for Mobility Radeon 2000 Series (Catalyst 9.6) on the ATI/AMD driver page(that one with the OS selector etc..). It's states however, that these drivers are for 7's beta releases only, but if you install them even on regular Win7 system, they're working fine and after a while an update for them appears in Windows update(It should update to Catalyst 9.7). I run them almost a week without a problem and it even resolved my Mass Effect 2 crashing issue.
One problem remains though that the driver is only for Win7(when you select Vista, it's really annoying: "Please contact your device driver manufacturer..." for you.).
It's truly more annoying than sad, that Toshiba, although in the Win7 supported laptop models list states that P200/A200 series are supported, the only thing supported after all seems to be a bluetooth module(since only that one got a new driver). So far there was no problem with an old display driver for 2600, but recently the new Mass Effect 2 crashes almost randomly during loading stages(with error log in computer management stating that the faulting module is ATI(anything here), and I only expect more such errors/problems with new games to come, because almost 2 years old drivers! So I think guys in Toshiba software engineering should really wake up.

Radeon HD 2600 issue - Satellite A210 notebook crashes ati2dvag

My pc freezes and crashes because of the ati driver i guess... it shows the screen below (link)
Anyone? Please help! :)

You can try omega drivers, they will work. But they won't fix the problem.
I have a satellite A210-16g with same graphic card and same problems, and it's starting to be frustrating. Ive searched for the solution, but it seems there isn't any, and Toshiba is keeping it quiet....lots of people have the same problem when they downgraded form vista to xp....
In my case 2 things happen:
Laptop freezes and sometimes there is BSOD (ati2dvag caused an inifitne loop problem etc.) mostly it just freezes and only thing to do is to turn off laptop, and again turn it on.
or picture goes weird like this:

http://s21.photobucket.com/albums/b294/indigo_lion/?action=view&current=21112008507.jpg
Pictures are taken with camera because in screenshots after restart, nothing is shown...everything is normal
And this happened 1day after new install of windows xp, now week after installation laptop started to freeze, twice today...
If any1 has a solution to this problem please post it...

Satellite A210 1AP - The display is not turning on

I had a problem about a mounth ago with my Toshiba Satellite A210-1AP, just once the display did not turn on. Computer was working, all lights were on. That light that shows reading from HDD was blinking, working as normal, but with display still turned off. So I turn it off, and next time I tried it was warking as usual, with display turned on, he asked if i want to start windows normaly, or in safe mode (like when it is restarted unnaturally). Then worked normaly for few days, then it happened again. At that time I couldn't go to the service (computer was on warranty, and how to prove that something happens sometimes if it do not happened there). So I continued to use it, and as time passes by the problem was more often. Then I decided to go to service.
Guy in the service said that the problem is motherboard, so he changed motherboard, and it took about month for him to do it, and then when I called he said me that it isn't working still. And maybe he has to change all parts, display, graphical card is maybe problem, that he didn't saw problem like that...
So my question is do you know what the problem could be? And the second question is can I demand from him, as it passed 30 days to give me new computer instead changeing all parts on it?
Thanks,
Nikola

Thanks for answers.
I have my notebook now back, but there is another question, you said that video card is on board on A210-1AP? Because tehnician said taht he ordered new one, after replacement of mother board...
I also doubt that he lied me with some more things, so I would like to know some things. Is there any toshiba policy that the broken parts have to be send back to toshiba? Because in law there is one paragraphf that sais that he have to give me back also broken parts.
And one more.
Do changed parts have extended waranty? For example I bougth laptor before 1,5 year, so he changed motherboard. Do the motherboard have waranty 2 more years or just half year as other non changed parts.
There is also paragraph about it in serbian law, but tehnician said that I don't have more waranty, and if it dies again (hopefuly not) that I can call inspection...

Question about memory upgrade on Satellite A210-127

I upgraded my memory form 2Gb (2x1 Gb) to 4Gb (2x2 Gb) with two Kingston memory modules KVR667D2S5/2G (PC2-5300 CL5).
For two weeks there were no problems but then I got blue screen every time when system boots reffering to I guss memory error.
I tried to replace memory with original Toshiba's modules but blue screen remains. I have conctacted the service and they say that
it may be memory incompatibility, virus or hard disk malfunction.
After few days of working on the solution I reinstal my laptop with Toshiba DVD and replace original memory. Now everything works fine.
I wonder is Kingston memory cause of my problem or somethig else?
Does anyone know is Kingston memory KVR667D2S5/2G 2Gb compatibile with Toshiba?

I've got an answer forom Kingston Customer Service Specialist:
Dear Mr. Sekovanic,
Thank you for your e-mail and for your interest in Kingston Technology.
Please note that the memory module with the part number KVR667D2S5-2G is a ValueRAM generic part, built to industry guidelines meeting the JEDEC standard. As they are not tested on any motherboard, we cannot guarantee compatibility of these modules with a specific system.
The branded memory module KTT667D2/2G is designed, manufactured and tested in a specific systems or system series, such as the Toshiba Satellite A210-127. Although the technical specifications are quite similar we do not recommend to use the ValueRAM module on a specific system as yours.
We trust that the above information will be of assistance to you. However, should you have further queries please do not hesitate to contact us.
so it's not compatibille.

How to connect external 24'' display to a Satellite A210?

I am using an lcd tv as an external display for my satellite a210, connected with a vga cable. But I cannot just use the external monitor, I can only use both at the same time. Also, the maximum analysis I can get by using them at the same time is 1280x800, because that's the laptop's highest analysis I guess. Are there any drivers I need to download or is it something I can't resolve?

Hi
Generally speaking you can switch between the devices using the FN + F5 key combination.
It should be possible to output the video signal on both devices (notebook & external screen) and only on external screen.
I think you should change the external screen resolution to a lower level
As mentioned above, the 24 supports high pixel rate and I would reduce this to the same like supported by notebook screen.
PS: you can also update the graphic card driver if an newer is available.

Satellite A210 - How to use muldimedia buttons with other than Media Player

Hi,
is it really not possible to use the Multimedia Buttons (Play, Pause, FF) on the top of my notebook for another application than the Windows Media Player?
Is there any reason for this? I would like to control Winamp with this buttons.
It seems quite sensless to restrict the acces to ONE application of HUNDREDS available, an then this one is the Media Player which is not used by the most people.
I have the Satellite A210 Notbook.
Can you tell my how to control my winamp with this buttons?
Greetings from Robert

Hello Robert
Unfortunately there is no solution at the moment. If you check this forum you can find several very interesting threads about multimedia buttons and Winamp player. The fact is that some people have found solution for older notebook models running WXP. Winamp has offered plugin that must be installed.
Now we have new situation. Your notebook runs newest Vista OS and I didnt find any plugin that can help. Problem is that your notebook is designed for Windows Vista and preinstalled OS contains all necessary plugins for running Windows media player as a part of preinstalled operating system.
It is no kind of restriction. With preinstalled OS you can do what you want and if you can find a way to change it do this. You know very well that there are hundreds of different players on the market. You cannot expect that Toshiba take a time and create a plugins for all of them and satisfy the customers all over the world.

Vista can not detect my graphic card ATI HD2600 on Satellite A210-128

Hallo,
Can someone help me with this issue?
I have a Toshiba Satellite A210-128 laptop with vista separately on DVD, but it seems that the dvd is damaged and I can not use it any more.
I have installed on my laptop a brand new Vista from the original DVD that Im using it on my desktop, but the problem is that vista can not detect my graphic card hd2600.
So Im stuck...... I tried to install the ati driver from the Toshiba update site but I get a error because ccc can not detect a graphic card ?????/
What to do????
It is something special with the DVD that i have from Toshiba ?????
Thank you very much.

The whole issue is really mysterious. In my opinion there are two options;
Either your have used and tried to install a wrong graphic driver or there is something wrong with your GPU chip.
Are you 100% that you tired an right graphic driver from the Toshiba European driver page?
If yes, then I recommend contacting the ASP in your country because this could be really an hardware issue.
Furthermore I found you second posting in other thread
http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=142621#142621
and I think more and more that this must be an graphic card issue.

Satellite A210-19T: Win 8 Beta is a nightmare but I can't get Vista back.

Hi,
I could really do with some help.
I was one of the fools that decided to try Windows 8 a few months back only to find that I cannot seem to reverse it and now my laptop is virtually useless to me.
I can't seem to find a reboot disc but I'm not even that sure I received one in the first place.
From what I've read online, Toshiba put everything on a partition and you access it by pressing a shortcut when the machine loads up.
I've tried that but the new Wonderful Windows 8 won't let me access it, should it even be there in the first place.
I've got a valid machine with a valid serial etc. I just want the old OS back ASAP.
I put my serial in on the support page and this is what it says I have:
Satellite A210-19T
Part Number : PSAFGE-03V011EN
Key Features
- AMD Athlon X2 Dual-Core Processor TK-57
- Genuine Windows Vista Home Premium Edition
- DVD Super Multi (Double Layer) drive
- 2,048 (1,024 + 1,024) MB
- 15.4 " WXGA TFT display 1,280 x 800
Please help me get my laptop back to it's previous state.
Thanks in advance.

> From what I've read online, Toshiba put everything on a partition and you access it by pressing a shortcut when the machine loads up.
Thats right but you will have access to this partition with factory settings only. Problem is that after own OS version you will not be able to start HDD recovery installation anymore.
> I've got a valid machine with a valid serial etc. I just want the old OS back ASAP.
Correct, but this valid serial belongs to OS that you got with your notebook. In Toshiba users manuals is clearly described how notebook owner should create recovery DVD and have back-up of original recovery image. Using this disc you can install recovery image anytime you want.
If you dont have it there are two possibilities only:
-to order new one from https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx (it will not be for free)
-to install own OS (you cannot use serial from the sticker)
Sorry but it is a bit complicated now.

How to uninstall the program "Utilities" from the Satellite A210

How can I unistall the program "Utilities" from the Satellite A210. In the control panel I can uninstall the program "Value Added Package" but not "Utilities".
With the A210 I can't work with the FN keys and on a German Toshiba help website I have found this information:
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB0402UR0000R01DE.htm
So I will try this sequence of installation:
- Chipset Utility
- Display Driver
- Toshiba Value Added Package V1.2.40
- Flash Cards Support Utility for Satellite L500 (see this thread why I want it to do):
http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=46135&tstart=7
- Toshiba-Utilities V1.0.25.5C
and probably
- Hardware Setup V2.00.09
I hope the FN keys will work after this sequence of installation.
John

Hi again John
So here a little bit theory:
After clean OS you must install all necessary drivers and Toshiba tools and utilities. Just when everything is installed properly you will have well working operating system. Problem is that you cannot install all this in some alphabetical sequence but following right installation order.
I don't have Satellite A210 and cannot offer you exact installation order but it must be something like this one:
-Win7
-chipset driver
-storage manager
-display driver
-sound driver
-modem driver
-LAN/WLAN driver
-supervisor utility
-Synaptics touchpad driver
-Card reader
-Webcam driver
-patches
-configfree
-VAP
-Toshiba hardware setup
-HDMI control
-WLAN driver
-Toshiba assist
Please note
VAP is package with follow applications:
- Toshiba Components Common Driver
- Toshiba Utilities
- Toshiba PC Diagnostic Tool
- Toshiba Power Saver
- Toshiba Button Support
- Toshiba Zooming Utility
- Toshiba Flash cards
As far as I know you cannot remove one single application. What I always do is to remove whole VAP and after notebook restart I start VAP installation again but not as standard installation. I use custom installation. There you can choose which application should be installed and which not.
To be honest I have very good experience with Win7 installation and if everything is installed properly you should be able to use flash cards with FN button.

Satellite A210 - Screen turs off after the Windows startup screen

Satellite A210
ATI Mobility Radeon HD2600
Where can I get some old drivers for the ATI Mobility Radeon HD2600, which I can install without starting windows?

> Where can I get some old drivers for the ATI Mobility Radeon HD2600, which I can install without starting windows?
Please dont understand me wrong but I think you are on the wrong way.
Device drivers (graphic card, LAN, etc.) have to be installed within running system (i.e: Windows OS, etc)
Im sure; driver isnt the problem if nothing is visible on the screen.
First of all I would recommend you to connect the notebook to an external screen/monitor just to check if something would be visible on the 2nd display.
But just one question: did you try to boot the notebook using a bootable disk (windows installation disk, Toshiba recovery disk or similar???).
Maybe the Windows system is muddled up and therefore you are not able to boot up the system? In my opinion you should test this option.

Display goes off and comes back only when Satellite A210 is restarted

Hi,
Satellite A210 displays goes off now and then and comes back only when the machine is restarted.
Usual runtime runtime 30 or 45 mins
Please advice
# Is this a hardware problem or software?
# Does some one else faced same problem do advice?
Machine is year and a half old runs windows vista basic that comes with it.
I have reinstalled the display adapter drivers also the problem remains same

Hello
Have you tested an external monitor on the notebook?
If the external monitor works fine it seems to be an internal display issue and must be replaced.
Are you running the factory settings on your notebook or have you installed your own Windows version? Before you go to an authorized service provider you should restore the factory settings to determine if its a hardware or software problem. With the factory settings all should work properly and if not in my opinion its a hardware problem.

Satellite A210-13f - Which laptop cooler pad do you recommend?

Hi everyone,
Ive had a Satellite A210-13f notebook for a year. \
Right now Im looking for a cooler for it.
Ive noticed my laptop has a fan underneath and Im wondering if all laptop coolers (thermal take, cooling master...) are appropriate for it.
Also i would like one which you can settle on your lap and as silent as possible.
Thx very much!!!

Ive got a A210 with AMD CPU and it doesnt overheat.
Of course I notice a warm air from a notebook side after a long time of usage but this is nothing unusual.
Very important is that you would use the notebook on the table.
Furthermore there should be enough free space around the notebook to ensure a properly air circulation and the cooling grilles should be free!!
From time to time I clean my ventilators using a compressed air spray. This helps to get rid of dust and debris.
Follow these guidelines and your notebook shouldnt overheat.
