No Sound - Satellite M105-S3041 XP PRO SP3

Hi!
I recently ran into this particular laptop through a client who seemed to have gotten a bad virus.
I installed a legit copy of Windows XP PRO with SP3 Slipstreamed into the installer disk because I continued to get a STOP error before I could even get anywhere with the windows installation.
So now everything is running perfectly fine except there is no sound. I have installed all the correct drivers from the toshiba website. I have even run Driver Genius Professional to sort out the couple of yellow question/exclamation marks in the device manager.
The only question mark left in the device manager is "pci device."
When I go into control panel to pull up Sounds and Audio Devices everything is grayed out and says "No Audio Device."
The only thing I can think of that I haven't done is flashed the bios but wasn't sure if that could improve this situation so I thought I'd ask here for some advice. Any response is greatly appreciated.
Thank You in advance!

Interestingly enough I have really no option to uninstall audio drivers. In devince manager > Sound, video and game controllers I have these listed:
Audio Codecs
Legacy Audio Drivers
Legacy Video Capture Devices
Media Control Devices
Video Codecs
I did a search for Realtek and there is a folder in Program Files. If I click on Realtek Audio Control Panel, it will not load.
Soundman.exe was running in processes under the task manager but I did not recognize any other process related to audio or the realtek control panel.
Maybe suggesting a different audio driver would do the trick but at this point I'm not really sure what to do. I have never had any difficulties in the past 10 years installing audio drivers/devices... this should technically be easy [i.e. onboard card, using drivers directly off of toshibas website, etc etc]
The one thing I have not done is ask the client if they even had audio before the virus crashed the computer to see if it might be a hardware issue.

Safe to buy AC adaptors from Ebay for Satellite M105-s3041?

Hi,
I have just lost my ac-power adaptor for my Satellite M105-s3041 computer.
I want to get a replacement but I bought my computer in the US and am not sure a replacement would have a UK 3-pin plug.
Also similarly to another guy on here I wonder if it is safe to byuy adaptors from e-bay as I don't want to shell out so much money for a replacement adaptor.
Do any of you have experience with 2-bay replacements?
I also don't know which adaptor would be correct for my model,
Hope you can help,
Chris

For me it looks like the Satellite M105-s3041 is a US notebook series.
I checked the Toshiba US page and found this page:
[Satellite M105-S3041 Detailed Product Specification|http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_sc_outFrm.jsp?moid=1364114&rpn=PSMA0U&ct=DS&soi d=1420312]
You need a 15V - 5A AC Adapter with 50-60Hz frequency (Universal) input.
The PA2521U-2ACA Toshiba 90W Global AC Adapter would be compatible also...
You are asking if its safe to use an AC adaptor from Ebay;
Well, usually you should use the compatible and supported parts.
But I think you could also use another part but its important that an 3rd party AC adaptor would support the same specification like the Toshiba AC adaptor.
Then everything should work ok

DC Power Jack part number Satellite M105-S3041

Greetings,
My Toshiba laptop (M105-S3041) seems to be having a lot of problems with the power.
My OEM Power adapter broke and i bought a replacement (non OEM) from ebay.
That has been working fine till about a month ago I started having problems charging my laptop.
I believe the power adapter is working fine (as the light on the adapter lights up) and I may be having a problem with my power jack.
I have been searching for the model / part number for the DC Power jack without any luck. Would someone please help me out with the correct model/part number, where to buy and the approximate price for it?
Secondly, does anyone know if the power jack is plug 'n' play or does it need to be soldered into the mother board?
I have been pretty good at dis-assembling the laptop and putting it back together (except for one damn screw that does not agree to come off, I will probably saw that guy off).
Thank
Ajay

Hi
Im not quite sure but I think the DC-in socket is soldered to motherboard.
In such case it would be tricky procedure in order to replace this.
But it seems that you are not 100% sure that this part malfunctions.
It could be also the AC adaptor issue as you said, you bought an not original part.
Its just a suggestion but I would try to replace the AC adaptor with an Toshiba recommended one before trying to disassemble the notebook and to replace the DC-in socket.
PS: All parts can be ordered from local Toshiba ASP!

Satellite A30, Win XP Pro SP3 - modem won't work

Another issue with this A30 Satellite notebook
The built in modem doesn't work.
*Explanation:*
The driver is correct and downloaded from the Toshiba support site.
The modem is identified as 'Toshiba software modem amr' and is setted on com3 port.
When I click on 'diagnostic' and 'ask modem' (the right labels may be different, since my is an Italian win xp, I just translated the Italian labels), a window appears saying it's impossible to open the door (port) which the modem is connected to.
I have tried to change the modem com port to different numbers but the problem is the same.
I don't know whether the modem is an actual board connected in some way to the main board or is just built on the main board. If it would be the first case, I could change it ad see. btw, the mini pci slot is already occupied by the gigabyte Wi-Fi board, so the modem must be somewhere else.
It is strange, since I did at least 2 other win xp pro installations on this machine, always downloading and installing the proper drivers, and the modem never has worked.
Thanks
S.

Hi
This old Satellite A30 was offered with Windows XP Home Edition/Professional SP1 so maybe you should install WXP SP1 and then all other stuff following original installation order.

Satellite C660-1TN. Win XP Pro SP3. Driver of video card GF 315M

Laptop Satellite C660-1TN. Under the corporate standard it is necessary to work in Windows XP Pro SP3. The driver of video card NVIDIA GeForce 315M isn't established. Thanks

Your corporate standards are pretty old. It should be time for corporate update to new standards. ;)
Anyway, newest notebook models are not supported for old operating systems and newest notebook models are designed for newest operating system. Newest notebook models have newest hardware also designed for newest OS.
Problem is not Toshiba or WXP support. As far as I know even Microsoft doesnt support WXP anymore.
Check if NVIDIA supports WXP for GeForce 315M.

No Sound after Formatting the Pavilion A1519H to XP Pro SP3

Hi!
The original OS for Pavilion A1519H was XP Media Center Edi. 2005. I formatted the PC to XP Pro SP3, and I'm already aware for the procedures from HP sites. I already downloaded the drivers for XP Pro. After XP Pro, I also installed the Microsoft UAA High Definition Audio Driver as well as the Microsoft .NET Framework.
Then I installed the chipset and all the drivers. Everything seems OK except for the sound. The speaker icon and realtek sound icon was appearing in the tray. Mute is disable, volume ok, but still no sounds output. Once I plug in the green color audio connector to green output port of the PC (Back and Front), The Realtek sound manager detected but it shows not the green output port but blue input port connected.
Device manager properties shows all (including the Sound adapter) OK except for "other devices" unknown device shows.
But I'd already installed all the drivers and chipset properly.
Kindly help in these regards. Hope to hear from you soon.
Thank you and God bless.
Ochie Casi

Thank you for quick reply.
I'd been in this realtek download site and already downloaded the sound driver "WDM_R238" for XP.
As HP instructions, I must install first the Microsoft UAA HD Audio driver then follow by this Realtek driver.
It still same, sound icons is there, Windows Audio OK, Speaker/headphones had been changed, mute disable. But still I don't have a sound..
Is there anything I's missed in the process?
Thank you.
Ochie

FingerPrint Sensor/Software not working right with Windows XP Pro SP3

Hi All,
I have a 3 month old Satellite Pro S300-S2504 (2.4 GHz CPU, 3 GB RAM, Bluetooth, firewire - was a custom build with most of the options I could get). The O/S installed was/is Vista Business. It came with a dowgrade XP Pro SP3 disc as well.
I bought a second hard drive - swapped it with the original and installed Windows XP Pro on it - having grown tired of Vista. I don't intend to keep both O/S's - but I didn't want to mess with what I had until I got XP working - and that's the reason I got the second hard drive for XP. Anyway, XP Pro is installed and working except the fingerprint sensor. As soon as I booted for the first time - with nothing but the factory everything installed, it prompted me to register fingers for the sensor. I tried but I got a database not found error followed by a sensor not working error. I got the latest updates for the fingerprint sensor, removed what I had - rebooted and installed the newer program - I got the same error. I then uninstalled the program again, went through the registry and removed all entries whose key had TrueSuite in it, rebooted and installed the latest version again - rebooted - and got the same errors. Looking in Device Manager, the sensor is working fine but once I try to register a finger and it fails, I then look in Device Manager and the sensor has a yellow error indicator. I used System Restore to go back to the original configuration and then tried the Fingerprint drivers/patches for Vista and for Windows 7. All of them installed but I got the same database not found error followed by the fingerprint sensor not working error.
I did end the program, then using Task Manager, I ran the Fingerprint utility as administrator - still got the same errors. I've completely reinstalled from the Windows XP restore CD four times trying to solve this and I can't get the fingerprint reader to register fingerprints - I always get that error.
I have a lot of graphic editing (movies) software as well as file conversion programs and a very stable version of Roxio Easy Media Creator that all works fine in Windows XP - but it all has problems running in Vista and I'm tired of the bugs that Vista seems have - and I want to use Windows XP Pro. I will try any suggestions. The fingerprint sensor and software works reliably in Vista. I even updated it and that went fine. I suspect there's a problem with the XP version of the software for my computer. I did notice that Toshiba doesn't sell the this model series with XP downgrade as an option anymore. I wonder if this is one of the reasons.
Anyway - I would very much appreciate help with this. Any ideas at all are welcome.
Thanks,
Dennis

Satellite Pro M10-S405
..a clean Win XP Pro install and it still doesnt work.There is a Win Xp key on the bottom of the laptop, but I cant seem to use it.
The Product Key that comes with the computer is useless to activate a retail installation. You would need to purchase a new one or convice Microsoft that an old one is no longer in use.
In the device manager it shows
Ethernet Controller
Multimedia Audio Controller
Network Controller
Unknown Device needing Drivers. I have searched and downloaded drivers and installed them but it still doest work.
Get the drivers from here.
Install the chipset utility first, followed by the display driver. Be sure to install the common modules prior to any Toshiba utilities, including power management.

Odd System Lock-Ups [XP-Pro SP3]

Something odd is happening, on my normally, and otherwise stable laptop with XP-Pro SP3.
I have observed that on Fridays, at about 11:30AM MST/USA, I get system lock-ups. Everything just freezes.
I have poured over Event Viewer, and nothing is getting launched at about that time. Really nothing in System, or Applications, from about boot-up, other than my Browser (Chrome). Not one Warning, or Error, and little real activity.
I cannot verify that this happens every Friday (do not remember it on Friday Jan. 13, for instance, but then the Adobe Forum Log-in went down), as I am often out of town. However, and based only on memory, this has now happened about 5 - 6 times, and always late in the morning, and on Fridays.
Normally, I only have my Browser open, though this time also had Windows Explorer minimized. During this AM, I had PrPro, PrE and Photoshop open at times, but none was open, when the lock-up happened.
I tend to suspect something is trying to update, but it's not showing in Event Viewer. A few times, there was a Norton Live Update Scan, but those were usually hours before. Those are not download/installs, as I have Live Update to full manual, and the same for all other such utilities.
Does anyone have any ideas, or perhaps a monitoring utility, that will gather data, better than Event Viewer?
TIA,
Hunt

hmm.... google.... i dont really trust google much....
i used to have something ( i use xp ) that basically I had total control over when to connect to isp etc and disconnect... but for life of me cant remember what it was. that was years ago.
now when i start computer it automatically ( partially this is due to isp of verizon ) connects and then gives me control of computer ( is part of boot and load process now ).
your prob seems to be some kinda scheduled thing is why i was thinking maybe turn stuff ' off ' that might be trying to update or something under the radar ( is part of the system more or less.. components ...)
this area
you wont see this related stuff in event viewer type listings ... and gets kinda complicated to me at least.

Cannot Print in Acrobat Pro 9.4.2 (XP Pro SP3), but Other Apps Can

I am unable to print PDFs on my workstation unless I drag them from a Windows Explorer session and drop them on an open printer window (Start, Printers and Faxes, double-click on printer to open window). I have Acrobat 9 Professional (ver. 9.4.2) running under Windows XP Pro (SP3). I cannot print a PDF from within Acrobat or from within a browser window. I have done a "repair install" on Acrobat and rebooted. When I try to print from within Acrobat or a browser window, I do not receive any form of error message. There is no indication of any problem. If I have the printer window open window (Start, Printers and Faxes, double-click on printer to open window) and I try to print from Acrobat or a browser, I never see anything appear in the window, even briefly. If I drag a PDF from Windows Explorer and drop it in the printer window, the document name appears briefly in the window and the document prints.
I have double checked my printer settings from within Acrobat to make sure that it is not "printing to file." The correct printer *is* selected.
I've tried printing to different printers in the office. I've even tried printing to the "virtual printer" which is a front-end to our fax server. No dice. If I monitor the printers folder (which lists every printer that my workstation can print to currently), the "documents" column (which shows the number of documents in the queue to be printed) never changes from zero.
The fact that I can drag a PDF from Windows Explorer and drop it on a printer and get it to print really puzzles me, since I thought that this was only possible if either Acrobat Pro (or other paid version) or Acrobat Reader was installed. That is, I thought that Windows XP cannot print a PDF unless some sort of PDF reader (Acrobat, Nitro, etc.) is installed. Then again, I may be mistaken. *IF* indeed Windows XP doesn't know how to print a PDF without help from a PDF reader of some sort (Acrobat Reader, Nitro, etc.), then how is it that I can drag, drop and print, but I can't print from within Acrobat Pro itself? Meanwhile, all other apps print just fine to any given printer.
FYI... this question has languished for two weeks with no solution at experts-exchange.com. I've never stumped them before. I've never waited more than 24 hours for an answer there before, and usually a solution takes just an hour or two. This suggests to me that my situation is quite rare. Can anyone get me on track?

New Found Hardware Wizard on Windows XP Pro SP3

hi, can anyone help???
had iphone connecting fine on desktop with Vista, I rebooted yesterday with XP Pro SP3 (fed up with Vista hogging all memory)
Installed and opened itunes and connected iphone and got a "new found hardware wizard" that attempted to find device drivers to no avail, iphone will light up with a yellow ! in device manager for as long as the phone is switched on, as soon as it goes to standby the device manager loses it.
Have tried various USB ports (all 2.0) and have succesfully opened other USB devices plug and play including my ipod video, but for some reason XP pro sp3 and iphone 3G dont want to talk????
Any suggestions?

Make sure you have the latest iTunes version installed, but at least 7.7. Better yet, reinstall 7.7.1 to be on the safe side.
Also make sure your XP installation is fully patched with the latest fixes for SP3.
If that does not help, consider reinstalling XP, but only SP2, which seems to have no issue with iphone 3G.
XP SP3 tends to be a bit troublesome with certain hardware combinations, but it's a bit hard to say what exactly makes it act up.

Anti-virus software on Windows XP pro sp3 with Virtual PC

Hi,
I'm running Virtual PC 7.0.3 with Windows XP pro Sp3 on eMac. Has anyone found the need to run a anti-virus software etc as part of the Windows system? Or will the firewall on the broadband router modem be sufficient protection?
Many thanks.

Thanks for the reply.
Any recommendations on AV software?
I tried installing a free version of AVG AV but the install would not complete, I ended the process after 1.5 hours.
