Equium A110: Sound is gone - only system sound appears

Can anybody help???
I have a Toshiba Equium A110, my sound seems to have, well, gone...... I can hear system sounds, but nothing else, and the volume icon has disappeared from my tool bar.
I have done everything I can think of in the control panel, but all of the volume/sound control elements within the control panel are greyed out, so I can't re-instate my sound icon, or adjust volume, or anything!!
I have installed updates, and done just about everything as recommended in the help section, which was not very helpful!
I am a bit of a computer idiot, so if anybody can help, please keep it simple!!
Many, many thanks

Hello Las
If you have no much experience, try simply to roll back OS to earlier time. Maybe it will help to solve this problem. It is very easy to do:
Start > All programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore. Choose option Restore my computer to an earlier time. Please choose some bold date on the calendar and follow the instructions on the screen.

Why do only system databases appear?

When we try to set a New Protection, and choose an instance of our SQL Cluster, we only see the system databases, and not the databases we've created.
However, in other instances in the same cluster, we don't have this problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
David

Hi,
As previously outlined I would recommend ensuring the SQLServerWriter (Figure 1 below) is listed when
you run the command vssadmin list writers
from an elevated command prompt on the SQL-server node in the cluster that owns the DBs in question.
DPM relies on the VSS infrastructure to protect data. For SQL Protection we use the SQL VSS Writer, so if the SQLSeverWriter is not being listed when using the above
mentioned command we will need to figure out the cause of why SQLSeverWriter is not being listed if you find that it is not.
Also the below post may assist if you are facing issues with the SQLServerWriter not being listed.

Equium A110-276 DVD image and sound playback problems

A couple of months ago my Equium A110-276 stopped playing DVDs correctly.
The sound and images on the DVDs are slow, sometimes skip and are generally out of sync.
I downloaded the latest drivers however it didnt make any difference. If i stream a video from youtube for example the picture and sound are both fine.
Anyone think of anything I can do to fix it?!
Thanks
Siobhan

Hi
If the video stream looks ok then everything seems to be ok with the graphic card.
I think either there is something wrong with the CD/DVD driver or with the software itself.
I have investigated a little bit in this forum and found this thread regarding a very similar issue:

I removed my Windows 7 in boot camp...then i restart the imac the mac HD is gone only recovery hd left...what do I need to do to recover the mac hd?

Hi I just got out of this situation after two weeks of forums and have tried any kind of different solutions.
If you have no response using start-up keys and you can't choose your start-up disk when pressing "Option" here is what to do.
The problem in this situation is common to users that install Boot Camp and at one stage the installation fail, may be a bug in BootCamp or just our mistakes, it doesn't really matter here is the solution.....
If you can start Windows, or Start the installation dvd of Windows do it, when In windows you will need to install BootCamp windows Driver, if you try to use the Apple downloaded file, it will not work.
You need to find the zip file in internet I found it with Google.
When you have the file run a "cmd" window with Administrator privileges.
Navigate in the folder that you have decompressed and open the folder Drivers/Apple/ you will see the file BootCamp.msi or BootCamp64.msi, of course choose the one that correspond to your Windows System .... type the file name and hit enter .... the drivers will install .... but what we really want to be install is that little icon on the system tray (right bottom).
After we will restart windows that little icon will give you the chance to restart the computer in OS X.
If something during the BootCamp and Windows installation had corrupted your OS X installation, you will have to reinstall, but at least you will be able to do it now. ;-) It took me two weeks and lot of researches, it's an hour job. Have fun.

Equium A110: SVID to Composit - black and white output

I Have recently bought a Toshiba Equium A110 and i have been trying to out put to a tv
the problem is that svid to svid is fine and in colour however svid to composit (Which is what i need)is black and white i have tried all the settings to no avail i think it has something to do with the tv settings are set to 60hz in the properties but i cannot change them
i have uploaded the latest 945gm drivers which did not cure the problem has anyone got any ideas of what to try next.

S-Video devices send two types of signals down the cable, Chroma (Colour) and Luma (B&W). Your TV or video device must support both Chroma and Luma signals otherwise the picture will be only black and white. Using incorrect signal encoding such as NTSC on a PAL only TV will also result in black and white picture however most modern equipment should handle both.
For using S-Video singals on a TV with no Chroma support you will have to use an S-Video to Composite adaptor. This basically mixes the two signals from S-Video in the correct proportions and delivers CVBS / Composite output. I know for a fact Maplin sell them for around 4.99 but you might find it cheaper elsewhere.

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 A110-276 BIOS update for 32-bit Windows 7

Hello all, I'd like to update the BIOS on my Equium A110-276 and the two choices are 'OS Independent' and 'Windows Vista 32 Bit'. I have Windows 7 32-bit on this laptop. If I choose 'OS Independent' it warns me 'This Bios is NOT compatible for Notebooks with Windows Vista!!!' and if I choose 'Windows Vista 32 Bit' it reads 'This Bios is only compatible for Notebooks with Windows Vista!!!'
The exclamation marks are from Toshiba, not me ;)
So am I stuffed and need to stay with my current BIOS, or can I use the Windows Vista BIOS update?
Thanks to all who can help!

Hi Paolo30
I've been having some problems with the fan, and before I bring it in for repair I wanted to try all options. It appears to be seated/connected fine, the area around it is clean, I've done all of the fan-related troubleshooting I can except the last option which is to re-flash the BIOS which a number of people have had success with (with regards to the fan).
The original OS is Windows XP so I'd have to recover it back to XP and then re-update to Windows 7 and I'd rather have surgery than do that again! If it's not in the cards then it's a trip to the repair shop, I reckon. Thanks for responding!

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

Hi guys
I cannot use lan on my tosiba equium A110 after it wake up from hibernation or standby. The lan icon is there bur internet wont work. Please help me out.

Please help me out .
Thanks

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.

Need mass storage controller for Equium A110-147

Hello. I have an Equium A110-147 running windows7 ultimate with 2g of ram and a 500 g hard drive.
In other devices in device manager I am informed that my mass storage controller drivers are not installed. When I try to update the drivers I am told the drivers cannot be found on my computer or on the web.
I would apreciate some help on this if possible please.

Hey,
If you dont post the vendor and device ID its hard to say what driver you need
Theoretically Mass Storage Controller could be related to internal card reader module. You can download it on official Toshiba website:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com
But I think you must search for Vista drivers because Equium A110 doesnt support Windows 7, only Vista.
And you must search in *Archive* on driver download page because its an older model. ;)

Equium A110-252 freezing in win 7

Hi I have a big big problem with my laptop which is Equium A110-252.
I installed win7 and I tried to install all the compatible drivers, only the ones that says win 7 x32, however my laptop keeps freezing at random times and I don't know why.
I didn't have this problem using win xp, could anyone plz help me, I really want win 7 to work because it is way faster than xp.
Plz help me

Hi!
I doubt that Windows 7 is faster then XP. I have also tried Windows 7 RTM and I must say its faster then Vista but in my opinion XP is still the most fast OS.
However, if your notebook freezes in Windows 7 you should use the preinstalled OS that I think is XP. I mean Windows 7 isnt on the market as yet and I doubt that pretty old Equium A110 will support Windows 7.
What you can do is to clean the notebook using compressed air spray because maybe its overheating.
But I think thats all what you can do.
Bye

Buzzing sound appeared again- hp pavilion ultrabook 14-b006sa

hp pavilion ultrabook 14-b006sa- windows 8
I ve tried the Troubleshooting tool in Windows 8,but there each speaker seems to work properly.
I have instablished the most recent Audio driver update from HP, 'IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver', as you had told me few months ago, but the problem still exists. i had followed as well the steps on the document 'No Sound from Speakers (Windows 8)' but did not help.
Please Help!!!!!!
Thank you

Hi kp161. I have reviewed your Previous Thread. If the basic troubleshooting has not produced a permanent resolution I will need more information. You mentioned that the buzzing sound appears from various sources. I want to use YouTube as our starting point. Find a video that you get the buzzing sound in, and note the time in the video where the sound occurs. If you play it again, does the buzz happen at the same point again? Does it happen through the speakers? Does it happen through headphones?
Let me know.

But in JAVA only system how data is stored ..? and how to access those table ..?
we need a report to develop which will have these data .
Interface name
Date & time of run
Key Data (if possible would like to see key data from the run, for example po number, material number, part number, idoc number would all be considered key data)
Pass/Fail flag
Error Message (only required if the run failed)
How & where to write code to develop this report ...?

Equium A110-276: Do I need to update BIOS when Vista was installed?

I do know where to post this...
"I have clean installation of Windows Vista on my Equium A110-276. Do I need to update the BIOS or not? Does Updating BIOS Compulsory/mandatory?

Hi
It seems Toshiba has published a special version of BIOS for Windows Vista.
If you want you can check it on the Toshiba driver page.
But if your Vista runs correctly on the notebook with previous BIOS version you dont need to update the BIOS.
I would recommend updating the BIOS if any strange operational behavior will appear.

Equium A110 - How to connect to PowerMac?

Hi,
I'm trying to connect a Equium A110 laptop (XP home edition) to a 7500/100 MHZ PowerMac (O/S 7.6.1) in order to get mainly photographic files off.
I need to be able to file share via a Cat5e Crossover Patch Cable, which I've been told should connect PC to PC, Mac to Mac and in this case Toshiba PC to Mac. Is that possible?
At some basic level the PC seems to see the Mac (in LAN boot - unless this stands for some Migration Authorization Code of some sort?) but I cannot get a physical connection that allows transfer of files. The original cable vendor and Belkin have been no help whatsoever!
I believe one computer should be made the server (the newer PC laptop?) and the Mac a Client?
I've had a lot of people saying, 'it should be possible'.
Am I missing any software or drivers in order to create this link successfully or have I missed activating a setting somewhere?
I have relaxed potentially conflicting software whilst trying to achieve this.
TIA.
JimJam

hi jimjam,
what do you expect from manufacturers if this is not a hardware problem?
you have to do your homework!
it's a problem that's related to the networking protocols...
what you need is a router + 2 lan cables or a crosslink cable, some time to read and patience...
smb or similar will do the job
file sharing rights are also required
if you are not experienced in network protocols use a usb harddisk to transfer the files
use a internet search with "smb file sharing mac windows"
i am sure the results give you some useful answers
btw: the apple support site has a howto exactly for this problem
so i wont copy and paste it here....
btw2: if you boot with dhcp enabled and choose netboot the bootprotocol will look for boot files on the connected computer...
this wont help you...

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
