Portege R700 - Installed Power Saver on Windows 7 64bit

Hi,
I was looking for a way to reduse fan noise on a Win7 Portege R700-174 and read to install "Power Saver" from the Toshiba support site.
Installation was OK, but I cannot use ist because Common Module is not installed. I get an error "Code: 0x2". I already understand that "Power Saver" and "Common Module" is not intended for windows 7. Why have I been able to install it anyway?
Now when I try to remove "Power Saver" i get yet another error and uninstall fails.
What can I do? Any help is appreciated!
Regards
Michael

Hey,
Toshiba Common Modules and Power Saver are designed for Windows XP only! This software isnt compatible to Vista and Windows 7. In this case you have to install Value Added Package.
Anyway, not its too late and you must remove the installed software. If you get an error while uninstalling I would recommend using CCleaner to remove the programs. CCleaner can also uninstall all software that you have installed and its freeware tool. Do a Google search to download it and try uninstalling the Toshiba tools again.
Check this!!!

Satellite A30 - Not able to install Power Saver on Windows XP Professional

Hello, i need help, i had to install win xp prof on my a30 but i cant install the power saver tool which i downloaded from this page. the tool is telling me "You can not install this version of Power Saver on your System", but its the lastest version for windows xp regarding this toshiba page. is the power saver tool only for windows xp home ?

Hi
No, the Powers saver should also works and run with Win XP Pro.
There is no difference. Every tool which works on XP Home is compatible with Win XP Pro too.
Did you receive the Tools and Utility CD? You could try to use this version

Cannot install power saver on new OS

Hi there,
I have problems with Toshiba Power Saver.
I have bought my Laptop in Austria with German windows. But I installed the english version and there came the problem. Everything worked except 2 utilities. I tried to install them from the recovery CD but they doesn't work.
So i installed Toshiba power saver but it didnt run. When i click on control panel and Toshiba power saver, comes the message:
"Cannot open because you dont have access rights to run Toshiba Power Saver" I am logged on as the administrator.
So I dont know. I tried to download them from internet but the problem still remains. In german XP media center edition everything works, but in my XP with SP2 no.

Hi Raymon
In my opinion you should post at first which notebook model you have exactly.
Anyway, for installation of single tools and utilities you can not use recovery CD because there is installations image. For single tools or utilities you can use Tools & Utilities CD or download them from download page.
If I am understood your posting right the Power saver is preinstalled on your unit but you can not use it. Because of that you must not try to install it again. Please be sure that you are logged in as administrator and not as user with limited permissions.
I have tested it on my unit and just if I am logged as limited user I can not start power saver. As administrator I can do what I want.

Tecra M10 - Can't uninstall or install Power Saver code 0x0

Hi folks,
on my new Tecra M10, after logging in I get a Fatal Error message "Toshiba Power Saver. Fatal error has ocured. This program will terminate. code 0x0.
I cannot install a new download of power saver until I UN-install the existing.
When I try to UN-install via Control panel, I get the same fatal error.

Hi
Friend of me had the same problem and he told me that it was possible to remove Toshiba Power Saver in safe mode. Therefore go in advanced boot menu and select safe mode. After this try removing Power Saver as normal.
Check this!
Furthermore you could try removing Power Saver using an additional tool like CCleaner. This is a very nice tool where you can remove programs and optimize the registry. I like this freeware program.

Power Saver re-install parameter error on Portege S100

I am trying to re-install the Power Saver utility on my Portege S100 (after removing it through Control Panel | Remove Programs).
I have downloaded the S100 WinXP version of Power Saver and unzipped it. When I run the setup.exe I get a stop error message saying "The parameter is incorrect". There is no apparent documentation with the download saying what parameter is required etc.
Has anyone seen this before and/or got a suggestion on how to re-install Power Saver successfully.
Thanks.

Thanks, and I'm sorry if I'm being dumb, but ...
... there isn't any information about installation on the driver page for the Power Saver. It says to check inside the zip file, which doesn't contain any such information either.
Also, I haven't uninstalled the Common module so I assume it is still there on my S100. I could download it and try to install it again over the top of the existing version but, without installation instructions, I don't know whether that would make things worse for all my existing Toshiba utilities even if it allowed Power Saver to reinstall correctly.
I guess I could uninstall all utilities and then reinstall ... but from what you say I would need to know the full list and correct sequence for this install.
Are you able to give me more explicit directions to the installation instructions.
Thanks for your help.

I cannot Install Toshiba Power Saver on my Satellite M45-S169 - Code: Ox7E

I cannot Install/reinstall/remove/run Toshiba power saver on my Satellite M45-S169. after I have reinstalled the system (now it is Windows XP Professional SP2). When I tried to open Power saver via control panel I got accessed denied and every time I reboot the system I get the error message:
Toshiba Power Save
A fatal error has occurred. This programme will be terminated.
Code: Ox7E
I cannot neither remove nor reinstall power saver. Can I try to run power saver for Windows XP SP2 applicable for other laptop models? I could not find the one for my model. Which one will fit? Any other solutions/advises to the problem?
Please, help
Thank you a lot, Oksana

Hi
First of all you have to known that this notebook was designed for the US market and all drivers, tools or any other Toshiba utilities should be used from the Toshiba US website.
http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_sc_home.jsp
Please ensure that you have already installed Toshiba ACPI Common Modules before you will continue with any further Toshiba software installation.
One important hint; the Toshiba power saver profile must be chosen in the Windows power options!!! Dont forget this!!!

Satellite P200- Power Saver in XP not working

Hello,
I have decided to make another thread so that more questions can be answered. Right so I installed Power Saver Driver and then a reboot and then I install Power Saver but when I try to access it from Control Panel I get a message saying "CANNOT open because you do not have access right to use "TOSHIBA Power Saver". Now when I go to the SYs32 directory and look for Toshiba Power Saver related files I find a file called TPSBattM and when I try to run that I get a "A Fatal error has occurred, Code: 0x2".
I have tried re-installing and removing but it still isnt working. Does anybody have a fix for this since this problem has been bugging me on older laptop ever since and TOSHIBA still haven't sorted it out.
I can't seem to find the Common Modules for the Satellite P200-144. If somebody could find them then it should start working again.
Thanks and please somebody try to help me.

Portege R700-17Z - Upgrading to Windows 7 64bit

Hi,
I currently have a Toshiba Portege R700-17Z.
I want to increase the amount of RAM from 2GB to 8GB, and as a result I want to run Windows 64 bit. I was planning on running a clean reinstall, but is 64 bit Windows built into this machine? Or will I need a separate disk?
If I need a separate disk, any ideas on how to do this without an optical drive?
Many thanks!

At first info about RAM upgrade: You are right. You can upgrade your Portege up to 8GB and compatible 4GB modules have part number PA3677U-1M4G.
According notebook specification your Portege was delivered with WIN7 32BIT PROFESSIONAL but it is supported for Win7 64bit. 64bit drivers and Toshiba specific tools and utilities can be downloaded from Toshiba download page.
What is your decision now? If you need some assistance with OS installation let us know.

Hi
You are absolutely right. Common modules is a kind of basic application who must be installed first. All other Toshiba tools should be installed after. The functionality of Power saver utility depends also on installed common modules.
Unfortunately I can not give you any kind of advice but in case that there is some error message the best solution is to remove and install the Power saver again. Check also Toshiba download page. Maybe you can find a newer version.
Bye

Portege R700 - fonts in main window of AuthenTec Truesuite has changed

Hello,
I have pre-installed on my Toshiba Portege R700 AuthenTec Truesuite version 3.0.1.149. After couple of days of good performance the font from the main window has changed becoming impossible to read. Probably I change some settings in Windows and also this font changed because for sure I did not change anything in your application. Having in mind that my OS is Windows XP Professional, SP3, pelse be so kind and help me with a solution to revert to standard fonts.
I have deinstalled application, cleaned registries, reinstalled application from software package downloaded from Toshiba site,
thank you,
Best regards,
Cristian

Can you please tell me which language do you use?
The whole story is somehow strange. I use Toshiba notebooks almost 10 years, have installed different stuff numerous times but I never saw something like this.

WXP Sound Driver install problems on Portege R700

Hello
Have installed Windows XP on a new Portege R700 PT310E. Have managed to reinstall all the other drivers but cannot for the life of me get the sound drivers installed. Installed the sound drivers from the website but still no audio device is detected. The unknown device in device manager is showing as VEN 8086 DEV 3B56 but theres not really any useful info on the PCI database.
Any suggestions on how I can sort. Cost me a few frustrating hours today !!
Cheers

Do you have XP Service Pack 3 installed?
You must have SP3 installed for the HD Audio drivers to work properly. SP3 added low level HD Audio support.

Error when installing Toshiba Tools and Power Saver

Hi,
I have a Satellite A100-771 and installed Windows XP Professional with SP2.
Afterwards I installed all drivers. After that I wanted to install the Toshiba Utilities and have got an error message : "Toshiba common Module not found! This setup will terminate."
Furthermore I tried to install the Power Saver Tool, which is more important as the uilities I think. And here I have got the error message: "A fatal error has occurred. This program will be terminated. Code:0x7E"
I am not sure what I can do else. I also installed the hotfixes for Windows which are on the ToolCD from Toshiba. But the problem is still there.
The difference between both errors is that the installation of the utilities setup stop before finishing installation. On the Power Safer installation, it finished on 100% and terminate the setup or the program after the installation.
May somebody can help me.
Eathen

There is a specific order that the Toshiba utilities and drivers have to be loaded in. This list is on the Toshiba download page, and the common modules is one the first utilities that has to be loaded for the others to work

Hi
I assume you are speaking about the fonts in the Internet Explorer window.
Right?
Please check the option View in the menubar. Zoom should be set to 100% and Textsize should be set to medium.
Furthermore you can check the settings in control panel -> display -> Appearance tab
There you will find option called Font size. In my case its set to Normal.
Try it out.
