Equium A110-233: Is there a built in microphone?

Hello,
Is there a built in microphone on this Tosh? It does not work!
Thanks!

Hi,
the Equium A110-233 doesn't have a built in microphone, just a port to connect an external one.

Equium A110-233 Broken laptop screen

Hi, I have an Equium A110-233, the screen is broken.
I have attached an external monitor and it displays when booting up until it gets to the Windows logon screen then it switches back to the laptop screen.
Is there any workaround known for this other than replacing the broken screen?

Hi!
Replacing the interal screen is a little bit tricky because you have to disassemble a lot of. You must remove many parts and screws and for this you should have a little bit experience with it.
An ASP can help you to do this and they can order such part and exchange it or you have a look on ebay.
Normally you can switch between the monitors with FN+F5.

How do I get an Equium A110-233 to recognise the network card under Linux?

Hi,
I've just bought an Equium A110-233. I partitioned the hard disk so I've got XP and Fedora Core 5 (FC5).
XP works fine when I plug in the network cable, but FC5 (or at least the Linux kernel) does not seem to be able to find and activate the network card.
The message I get is "8139too device eth0 does not seem to be present, delaying initialization". The 8139too module is in memory as is mii (which points to it).
Somehow I need to get Linux to detect that the card is there, but I just don't know how to do that. Can anyone help?
Thanks.

Hi
As far as I know the notebook has a integrated Realtek Network I/F Chip RL8100CL.
I think you should googol around for the compatible LAN driver for Linux which supports this chip.
Unfortunately, on the Toshiba page you will not find any drivers for any Linux distribution because Toshiba doesnt support this OS. ;(

Equium A110-233 stops using the WLan and fans work only 3 sec

I purchased an A110-233 20-09-06. It works fine for about 1 hour then it stops communicating via the wireless network, the connection status states it is still connected, sometimes but not always the Intel Pro config window states that the wireless is switched off and I should switch it on at the bottom of the window ( It is switched ON ).
I took it back to PC World expecting a replacement but I had to sit for an hour trying to replicate the fault, we could not get it to go wrong but I have since found out that it only does it when running on the mains.
The cooling fan only runs for 1 - 3 seconds at a time, is there any way to increase this time.
Any help would be appreciated
Bob

Hi
If you want to change the cooling module properties you have to do it in the Power saver settings.
You should know that the power saver uses different power modes. The notebook uses a different power mode if the AC adaptor was connected and another power mode if the notebook runs only with the battery.
In the Basic setup of the power saver you will be able to change the cooling method. This option controls the fan operating.
It is not easy to solve the WLAN communication issue. I mean there is no general solution. Additional its not easy to solve it because the issue doesnt occur always but only sometimes. Possibly the signal strength is sometimes lower and therefore the Intel WLan configuration software reports that the WLan is switched off.
Furthermore you should also check the Wlan card properties. You will find the properties in the device manager -> right click on the WLan card.
There you should select the Advanced tab.
You should find some interesting options like power saving (disable it) or signal strength (enable it).
Furthermore you could try to update the WLan driver. Possibly a new version is available.
By the way: You should also know that some 3rd party application could has a bad influence on the WLan communication.

Can ipod touch be used as a voice recorder? what about previous generations? is there a built-in microphone?

can ipod touch be used as voice recorder? what about previous generations? which generations have built in microphones?

4th gen has a microphone pin-hole on the back next to the camera.
2nd and 3rd gens allowed the use of an external microphone using a special headphone jack.
I do not think the 1st gen can accept a microphone, but I am unsure.

Equium A110-233 - I need select manually the boot device from menu

In the last few days when I turn on my laptop the Toshiba screen appears but I need to manually go in and select the boot device to start windows.
(Down the bottom the message 'Press F2 for set up. Entering boot device selection menu')
Why has this started and what can I do to get it to go straight into Windows XP like it used to?

After switching your notebook ON please use F12 button and you will be able to select the first bootable device.

Cannot play DVDs on Equium A110-233

I can play CD's and pc DVD rom games but it cant play normal DVD films. I get the following message
Playback failed due to a problem with the video subsystem. Lowering your screen resolution or color depth may fix the problem lowing message.
I have lowered all the settings as suggested and followed all the troubleshooter guides but still no luck. Im sure I have the latest drivers ect, so a bit lost!
Thanks for any ideas on how to fix.

Hi
I do not have such problems but maybe you should read this document for better understanding why this happen.
If your notebook is preinstalled with original recovery image you should be able to watch original DVD movies using preinstalled WinDVD player.

Need info about HDD adaptor and Vista utilities installation on Equium A110

I own an Equium A110-233 (PSAB2E), and I recently upgraded to Vista after installing 2GB of RAM. However, I found myself a little short of hard drive space and treated myself to a new 120GB HDD. However, it seems that the computer has an edge connector interface, as does the existing Hitachi TravelStar HDD - it doesn't look like there's an adaptor plug on the drive. Does anyone know where I can get an adaptor for my "traditional" 40-pin hard drive?
After installing Vista and reflashing my BIOS, I reiinstalled ConfigFree and the Value Added Package (amongst other drivers). However, running ConfigFree always leads to a crash with the BSOD ID "NO_MORE_IRC_STACK_LOCATIONS".
As for the VAP, I wanted it mainly for Power Saver. However, searching for it gives only "Power Saver Help".
Can anyone give me any pointers here? Thanks.

Hi,
did you know that you have a serial-ata drive in your machine which is not compatible to the IDE standard (40 pin)? You wont get an adaptor from 40 pin to serial ATA, because SATA is a completely different technology to IDE.
You will have to return the harddrive you purchased and buy a serial-ata drive, which will fit in your machine.
A little idea from my side regarding your BSOD:
Download the powersaver and the configfree for vista from the internet (this is a good address: http://209.167.114.38/support/Download/ln_byModel.asp) and reistall that stuff, maybe it helps.

Equium A110 - Booting into BIOS

Hi all
I have recently come across a problem with my *Equium A110-233* laptop. This laptop was lying in a cupboard for a year or so after a friend of a friend plugged a digital camera into it to transfer pics whereapon the laptop promptly shut down. It was an instant power off as i have been told. The laptop would not boot up again after that, in fact it showed no response at all.
Now, i pulled it out of the cupboard and plugged in the power cord to have a dip and see if i got lucky. To my amazement it booted after a little charging. I re - formated and re-installed windows XP with SP3. The laptop booted up for two days without any problems but, has now stopped behaving.
The problem i am having is as follows : When powering up the laptop posts, but then goes straight into the bios everytime. It did this a few times on and off and i thought nothing of it as it would eventualy load windows XP after rebooting. But now it simply refuses to do anything other than go straight into the bois on power up.
I updated/ flashed the bios after installing XP innitialy. I have no clue as to what the problem may be. Below is what i have checked so far:
Ram - Checked and working properly.
HDD - Working properly.
Battery - Delivers power when off of AC.
AC power delivers power as indicator light is glowing on laptop.
Any ideas would be gratefully accepted.
Thanks.

Hmm maybe the RCT/BIOS battery is empty ?:|
This could be possible because the notebook was not used for a longer time.
In order to recharge the BISO battery the notebook should be connected to AC adaptor and should be powered up. The battery should charge for about 24hours.
Of course it could be an motherboard issue this would explain the pervious issues

I am trying to record using this microphone and can't pick up any sound.
Any help as to how to do this?
Thank you.

if there are built-in mic there should be a mic holes under the FN key on the keyboard.
Have you activated the internal mic from control panel->sound-> recording device?

Equium A110: Cannot use LAN after wake up from hibernation or standby

Hi
Did you try to refresh the connection? Something similar happens on my notebook but not with LAN but with WLan. If you right click on the small lan icon you will see the option repair. Check it.
Have found also this possibility. I dont know if it will help but try it.
1. go to [Start] -> [Control Panel] -> select [System]
2. On system properties dialog box select [Hardware] tab -> click [Device manager]
3. On Device manager dialog box select [Networking adapters] -> double click [Intel(R) PRO/100 VE Network Connection]
4. Go to [Advanced] tab -> select [Wake On Settings] property -> Select [Wake on Magic & Directed]
5. Press [OK] to close the dialog box.

Built-in microphone not working on Equium A300D

I have Toshiba Equium A300D 13X with vista 32-bit, I cant get the built in microphone to work.
All the speakers and the webcam seem to work and I have tried to update the drivers from this website but nothing fixes the mic problems.
Can you help?

Hi
Why are you sure that the internal microphone does not work?
How did you test this?
The internal microphone belongs to the internal webcam.
You can increase the mic volume in webcam software settings.
Start webcam software -> settings -> audio tab
There you should increase the mic volume to max.
The option Audio Device should contain something like Microphone (Conexant High definition). Audio Compressor -> No compress

Equium A110-240 need new keyboard replacement

Hey.
As the title says I have an Equium A110-240 laptop with a broken keyboard. A few weeks ago about 1/3 of the keys stopped working at the same time. The error is probably in the hardware and I've reinstalled the keyboard drivers and updated BIOS just in case.
The laptop is a few years old and its warranty has expired so no help there.
I've tried checking the individual keys and removing the keyboard to check for a bad connection. No luck.
The rest of the laptop is in working condition and suits my needs just fine so I'm not exactly keen on buying a new one just yet, at least not before trying to fix the keyboard.
What I think I need is a new keyboard, but I can't find this exact keyboard on google.
There's quite a few Toshiba keyboards on ebay but none for my laptop.
I'm guessing other toshiba keyboards would work fine, provided they have the same connector cable, but would they physically fit?

Hi, You should be able to get a suitable keyboard. Check the following website and see if the part number matches your existing one.
