Need Vista install order for Satellite A300-1HV

Hello, could anyone give me or point me to the Vista installation order for a A300-1HV (drivers and utils)
Many thanks.

I installed all drivers and apps as above, using latest versions for my particular hardware.
Regarding the Robson Drivers for the Intel AHCI - Advanced Host Controller Interface for the SATA disk:
With AHCI turned on in the BIOS I needed to extract Robson Package v1.5.0.1013 onto a USB key (the only version I could extract from exe), then use this when partitioning at the start of Vista install by clicking 'Load Driver' and browsing to the USB key and then the Driver folder.
NOTE: If you don't do this and AHCI is switched on in the BIOS then the installation will hang at the 'Completing Installation' stage.
Once Vista is installed and SP1 installed, when you install the Robson driver again from the list above you can use the latest version.
The latest TVAP v1.1.9 did not install and came up with a 'GetProfString is Failed' error, so I installed v1.1.4 ok.
Only one issue was the media buttons did not seem to work correctly. The following link fixed the left most 'dimmer' button and the 'media player' button. The rest, control buttons then worked as expected.

I installed Vista Home Premium first and then I had Vista SP1 on disk which I installed. Then rebooted after every driver and application install to make it clean as possible.
The entire process was done without internet connection, wireless was switched on but I never connected to my LAN. All drivers and apps were loaded from a USB key following Vista SP1 installation.
Next stage was to install AntiVirus and then connect to Internet and allow Vista to install all required updates.
There are 3 drivers that Microsoft is offering me. The first time I tried this installation I installed these and I started to get warning messages upon my WLAN connecting, but these disappeared when I disabled my LAN device.
I AM NOT INSTALLING THESE, I shall wait for updates from Toshiba. - If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
All functionality appears to work correctly.
(p.s. My Vista gets a 4.0 average in the Windows Experience Index. I can't remember the exact results but obviously 4.0 was the lowest and there were a few 5.x's in there)
Hope this may help someone.

Extended warranty for Satellite A300-15C

Hi
I am new here so sorry if I posted it under wrong thread.
I want to buy extended warranty for Satellite A300-15C (1+1 standard warranty) so I wanna ask which warranty package gives the longest protection for this model.
2+2 is the longest? ID: SE5054I-PDB.
Secondly, and more importantly, the laptop is more than 1 year old. When i was buying it, in retail store they told me that the extended warranty can be activated at any time, but now I see that there is this 30 days deadline policy. Is there any way how to overcome?
Thanks

Hello Pingo
You must understand that this forum is user-to-user forum and what you need is expert advice. So I recommend you to contact nearest Toshiba authorized service provider and order best extended warranty option.
At first you can visit Toshiba support page and pick up some info about warranty options.
The link is http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Peripherals & Services
On the same page under Support & Download > Find an ASP you can find address and phone number of your nearest ASP.

Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You must purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and
           terms apply.
Actually, you cannot download Snow Leopard. You downloaded a Snow Leopard updater.

Do anyone knows drivers installation order for Satellite A660-11M

Do anyone knows the drivers installation order for Satellite a660-11m?
I've got some issue installing Win 7 pro (wlan do not work properly,
freezing few minutes after laptop startup, unabling to run CHKDSK on C:).
Reading this forum it seems to me these aren't new issues for Toshiba users.

Hi, friends.
I've installed the the Flash Card Support Utility. In effect, now the function keys work. ;) <img class="emoticon" border="0" alt="" />
Unfortunately it seems that problems are hard to die. The Laptop, in fact, keeps freezing, tipically but not exclusively, after resuming from suspension due to lid closing. System can stucks during windows login or after a while that user is logged on.
During these days i've discovered that SPTD.exe x64 v.1.74 (Daemon Tools) and Nod32 x64 makes impossible launching chkdsk on %SystemDrive% (countdown stucked on 1 and hdd led blinked with very short ON state). However, even without installing those, it seems that one is not able to break the countdown (that windows shows before it starts chkdsk) pressing a key.
But maybe I should open a new topic for talcking about this.

Need to install Iphoto for 10.8.5.

I need to install Iphoto for 10.8.5. Where can I download it? I'm willing to pay for it. I just don't know where to get it. Apple only has the version that works with Mavericks and I have had a bad experience with Mavericks and don't want to go near it. Thanks.

If the computer shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, not including Mac OS X Server, install it from the computer's original disks.
If the computer shipped with Mac OS X 10.7 or newer, go to the Mac App Store main page, click on Support under Quick Links, contact Apple, and see what they say.
If desired, buy an iLife 11 DVD from a source such as Amazon or eBay.

Satellite A300-1HV: Illumination button doesn't work

Hi Guys,
I recently bought a Satellite A300-1HV, and while in the store, the salesman showed me that it was possible to turn off the illumination behind the function/media buttons at the top of the keyboard. He seems to do this by simply pressing the first button (the mute button).
When I got the machine home I tried this several times, and it did in fact do as I expected (i.e. turned off the illumination). The manual describes the first button as the 'Mute or LED on/off' button. Later that night I tried the button again, but this time it acted like a mute button, and no longer turns off the illumination. Also, the second button (CD/DVD) no longer seems to function at all, although it does light up when pressed.
I've tried the Toshiba Assist software, and am able to turn off the illumination manually, but the 'Toshiba Button Support' seems to have no affect on either button. I assume that this would allow me to manually configure a program to run when I press one of the two buttons, but no matter what I ask it to run, it does nothing.
It's like there is some piece of software that should be running, driving the keys, that I do not have (or at least no longer have).
Any ideas?

Hi
You can turn this back on in BIOS.
You can access this menu by tapping the F2 key while turning the machine on.
Select the Advanced section and turn Illumination LED on.
Cheers

How to install XP in Satellite A300-1BI with Vista

Hi,
Few days ago I bought a Satellite A300-1BI with Windows Vista preinstalled. I don't like this OS and I want to degrade to Windows XP and install too my Ubuntu Linux distribution but I can't install no one from them because the hard disk appears as "not connected" on the XP and Ubuntu installation men... It seems like the laptop is made ONLY for Vista, and I think is... pathetic...
Someone can help me? I tried to search information on web, forums, etc, but it seems I'm the only one with this problem.
Thanks!

Sorry estemon but I cannot believe what you wrote here. This is most asked question in last one year and you can find so many threads here with the same question. In just one minute I found, for example, this one http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=35787
It is about Satellite Pro but the principle is the same.
Check please Satellite A category on this forum and you will find answer to your question.

Missing WinXP drivers for Satellite A300/A305

I bought a satellite a305-s6829 in US. I changed the OS to XP.
My problems re the following:
1) i have 3 devices that remain unknown and Toshiba USA has published incomplete XP drivers for this model.
I don't know which hardware are not functioning and have no idea how to identify them. At first I installed a program that's supposed to identify these unknown devices but it lists all the hardware in the laptop! So how am I supposed to know which ones are unknown.
The device list is long and it is kind of difficult to isolate the unknown devices.
2) I am unable to find the ACPI Common modules for Win XP for this model. Is there a compatible ACPI module for the A300/A305 from other models?
I am unable to install the other important utilities for the laptop since I don't have this, e.g. power management.
3) Ever since installing XP, I am experiencing BSOD.
I am not sure what's causing it. Maybe it is related to no. 2, i don't know. Has anyone else experienced this?
Can somebody help me with these issues?
Thanks
-yazunuri-

I had as of sept 12/2008 the same problem with a satellite A305, spent weeks finding drivers for XP, thought I had them all and installed the OS from 0, Everything worked great... at least I thought so. Then I noticed no "fn" keys working for turning down the brightness of the screen and preventing the system from draining the batteries, so looked for hours for the solution. Downloaded through the support page:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp
The drivers you are supposed to download for Windows XP are: common module, hotkey and zooming utility. Be careful there are two versions of hotkey available. Only one works so just try them, now I have amore decent way to switch between monitors, and controlling the brightness. When you turn off brightness goes back to the highest.... but it works, I can even suspend or hibernate my system.
I don't know why Toshiba keeps telling people that my system had not such a driver for win XP, the truth is, it is not the best but works, and besides all the "conspiracy" of laptop manufacturers pushing us into Vista and us trying to resist, we have to fight in order to keep alive XP waiting for the final successor of XP to be born. I am a Microsoft fan but... no comments about Vista anymore, just switch to XP and enjoy having your system ready (full of applications) in only 1 minute and 40 seconds, hibernate it in 20, have it back and ready in 35, and the list of fast speeds of XP goes on and on.... hope you can solve the problem is just a matter of time to spend in front of your laptop.
IT CAN BE DONE, do not ask TOSHIBA, they'll tell you cant.

BIOS Update for Satellite A300/600

Hi all,
I have a Satellite A300/600 (PSAG4A-02600M), which I have just installed W7 x64 on (I did a clean install). I am upgrading the drivers as per the Toshiba website. I noticed there is a BIOS upgrade to version 1.8 - I am currently running version 1.5.
I have downloaded the update but when I try to run it I get the following message: "C:\Users\HELIF~1\AppData\Local\Temp\isc6632tmp\\i nsydeflash.exe could not be executed."
The PC is running fine at the moment, no major glitches - do I need V1.8? If so, how do I remedy this situation?
Other glitches so far in the upgrade process for me have been:
Every time I pressed the mute button W7 UAC popped up to ask me if I wanted to allow the Toshiba program to adjust a system setting. Fixed this issue by moving the ButtonSetting.ini file and making a registry change.
Loaded Windows Live Photo Gallery. When I inserted my XD card from my camera, W7 recognised it just fine, but WLPG could not see it. Therefore I am unable to import my photos off the card. Well, I can do it through W7 but WLPG gives you the options of fine tuning the import process which is what I'm after. Tried uninstalling/reinstalling WLPG after I'd installed all the drivers from Toshiba but it still won't recognise it. Still an issue.
Lastly, in relation to WLPG, I can't seem to download Image Composite Editor, whenever I try the link to the download (ftp or html), Firefox just displays a blank page with "waiting for research.microsoft.com". Trying to find an alternative site to download it off but no luck thus far.
That's it so far, any help would be appreciated.
Message was edited by: helifella - added one more issue...

Thanks for the advice. Won't be touching the BIOS any more.
Think I found a solution to the WLPG problem = Picasa! No, but seriously, I will try the Windows or Windows Live forums when I get the opportunity. I must say I did like the face recognition in Picasa, makes tagging people pretty easy. If only tags were more standardised like audio tags (okay, I know there are a few formats but they're pretty good) so when I imported the photos I had already tagged in WLPG they were recognised by Picasa - grr.
Anyway, thanks again, case closed.

Which driver to use for Satellite A300 - Latest one, by date or by version?

For my laptop (A300-1HV) I am looking at the driver downloads available.
There are many drivers which have a LATER modified date but LOWER version number.
Or if you like, an EARLIER modified date and HIGHER version number.
How do I decide which is the most up-to-date driver?
Thanks.

You can install your own operating system without problems. As you can see all necessary drivers, tools and utilities you can find on Toshiba support page.
To be honest I do not understand what confuses you so much. Usually there is one driver for each hardware component and just one version for each tool or utility.
If you have question about some specific driver or tool please let us know and we can try to help you.
Please install all stuff following installations order. If you cannot find it let us know.
Good luck!

I need some XP drivers for Satellite L350D-110 PSLE8E

Hello there.
I have now my brandnew Toshiba notebook. It comes only with VISTA, a very nice looking system.
But I want to use my notebook in our office too and then I need to install XP Professional.
XP is already installed, but i need some drivers to complete the system installation.
Here is screenshot from my hardware manager (hope it will work in this forum):
http://img443.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screengmhv9.jpg
Can anybody help me?
Or is there a chance to get a downgrade option from Toshiba?? Without a downgrade I cannot use my brandnew notebook.....

For the Satellite L350D and Windows XP there are all drivers available.
I think you forget to install two or more drivers.
Here you can download it:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com => Support & Downloads => Download Drivers
Search for your model and you will get a list of all drivers. Then you can compare which drivers you didnt install yet.
As Jeffrey said, I should be the AMD Processor Driver, Realtek driver and the card reader.
