Question about POWERPLAY status on Satellite A100-192

I have an Satellite A100-192 notebook with Mobility Radeon X1600 card.
In POWERPLAY Status it always shown as the adapter is "plugged in", also when I use the laptop with battery and the current profile is "Optimal Performance".
So what is the problem?

Hi
I see on the picture that the Power Play in not enabled.
In my opinion you can use either the Toshiba power saver or the ATI power play options.
The same happens with Windows own power options. This options are disabled and dont work if the Toshiba power saver is installed on the OS.
Ok, this is only my opinion and if you want you can test it.

  • DVD drive model name of Satellite A100-192

    what is exact model name of dvd drive on satellite a100-192?
    can you please check it from device manager?

    Try to download the user manual for this notebook.
    The user manual you will find on the Toshiba page.
    There you will find the drives which are delivered with the Satellite A100.
    But you have to consider that it depends on the notebook which drive is installed.
    The GMA-4082N should be a Hitachi-LG Data storage DVD super Mulit +-R Double layer

  • Fn Key does not work in Vista on a Satellite A100-192

    After Vista Installation Fn Key don't work.
    HotKey Utility and other tools are installed (in recommended order), but when Vista start appears Error message: "Start HotKey Utility failed".
    All other device is working.

    Hello Kat
    I have the same notebook. It is Satellite A100-504 delivered with WXP. It is different number (504) but the same hardware configuration and number PSAA9E. I have preinstalled Vista last week successfully and everything works fine.
    Do you use Toshiba Vista upgrade installations DVD or you have own Vista DVD?
    Anyway, I have installed clean Vista OS (using Microsoft installations CD). After doing this I have visited Toshiba download page and at first downloaded document called Installations Instructions.
    Please do the same and install all listed stuff in the listed order. That is very important. After doing this Vista should run well and also all Toshiba designed tools and utilities.
    BTW: power saver utility is not like before under WXP. Now notebook uses Vista power settings.

  • Satellite A100-192 (PSAA9E) FN+F8 key not working after updating BT driver

    I've just download the update for the Bluetooth driver "blt-mon-20071009150856" and install the "BtMon2Inst_v212" driver on my A100-192 (PSAA9E). after the installation of "Toshiba Bluetooth 4" driver the BT works fine.
    BUT I can't use the wireless key (FN+F8) anymore to switch between Bluetooth and the Wireless device. I can disable/enable them only from the control panel or the ConfigFree utility.
    Any idea how to bring the FN key back to life?
    tnx.

    >I have just check a strange thing - when the WLAN switch is off, if I press the FN+F8 it >DOES respond and telling me that "Wireless communication is disabled, Please turn on >the wireless communication switch" all the other FN keys works.
    Described issue is definitely not strange. It is logic that you can not switch between WLAN/BT if the hardware is disabled. This function is the same for years and the same happen on all older notebooks.
    I have two notebooks and both with WLAN/BT and if the WLAN driver and BT stack are preinstalled properly there should not be any problems. If the WLAN switch is set to ON you should be able to use both devices. Check also options in ConfigFree

  • Question about HDD upgrade on Satellite M40X-184?

    Hello
    I want to ask if there is an option to insert a new hdd in my toshiba. As far as I know there is no official support for this??
    There is an access to the place where the disk is placed on the side of notebook. S
    o my question is
    1. is it possible to place a new disk (faster and bigger)
    2. is it possible without loosing warranty
    3. what disks do you suggest
    Thanks Szczepaan

    Hello Hinni
    Unfortunately there is no public document about that and those information has Toshiba service partner or some independent PC and notebook service specialized for upgrade.
    I can just tell you that Toshiba directly dont support hardware upgrade and I have noticed that hardware upgrade is cuts into three areas:
    - user upgrade (memory)
    - dealer upgrade (HDD)
    - service upgrade (WLAN card, BT module)
    If you want to exchange the HDD alone take old out and notice all data on the sticker and talk with your local dealer if you want to buy the same but with more capacity. You can test new one and if there is some problem (not recognized by system) you can send it back any time.

  • Question about CPU upgrade for Satellite A30-104?

    Hello,
    My Satellite A30-104 has recently come to the end of its warranty, and having had to open up the heatsink for cleaning and seeing that the CPU was accessible, I wonder if there is any (likely) scope for upgrading it.
    The processor is a Celeron (Northwood) 2.6GHz. I'm not looking for more grunt, I'd prefer a lower-power chip, though the much larger L2 cache of a Pentium 4 is also desirable. I'd be very grateful if anyone could advise whether any upgrades are likely available, and if so which chips would be appropriate? If I can give any more useful spec information, please ask.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, thanks for the reply -- and sorry it went ignored so long, it turns out I hadn't configured my email watches correctly :(
    I appreciate that it's really a job for a technician, and I don't want to brick a perfectly good computer, but I think its EOL is not far off anyway so I'm prepared to be a little more invasive than before.
    I know that I can get at the CPU, and I know the basic precautions for physically tampering with PC internals.
    What I'm first of all concerned about is this: if I replace the CPU, and it doesn't function with the laptop, can this damage other parts of the system such that it'd no longer work by replacing the original?
    The Celeron puts out a great deal of heat (all the time) but isn't it fair to assume that a P4-M will be less hot?

  • Question about new BIOS on Satellite L20-182

    Hi :)
    I've got one question: may I install new BIOS 2.20 on my Satellite L20-182 model no. PSL2XE?
    If I can't, why users PSL2X can do this? Are there so many differences on both models?
    Greetings and sorry for my English - I'n not the best :)

    Hi,
    just for explanation: the bios you mentioned is the right bios for the machine. Toshiba is not writing the full model number since there is a range of model numbers of the same model, so dont worry, they are not different. Maybe the last digit but this is not important for you.
    Why I am knowing this? Because many manufacturers are doing this and I was many times confused when updating bioses from another manufacturer...

  • Question about EMCTL status dbconsole

    Good morning,
    I am using Windows XP SP2 and 11gR1. I have an installation with 2 homes, db_1 is home to DBCASID and OCP11GSID, db_2 is home to ORCLSID. All are the same Oracle version, namely, 11gR1.
    I have set the EM services to start manually. I initially started the service for ORCLSID then stopped it and, started the service for DBCASID which started uneventfully. The services were started and stopped using EMCTL by setting the ORACLE_SID to the proper values, in addition, since those instances are in different homes, I switched the PATH as necessary to point to their respective homes.
    When I issue the commands:
    E:\Oracle\app\Private\product\11.1.0\db_1\BIN>set oracle_sid=dbcasid
    E:\Oracle\app\Private\product\11.1.0\db_1\BIN>emctl status dbconsole

    Copyright (c) 1996, 2007 Oracle Corporation.  All rights reserved.
    https://OrahostB.john.local:5500/em/console/aboutApplication
    Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g is not running.It reports the service as not running. Windows shows the service is running and in addition to that I have successfully started EM for the instance and used it to browse the state of various elements that make up the database.
    As I type this, the address in IE that I am currently looking at is:
    https://orahostb.john.local:5500/em/console/database/storage/tablespace?target=dbca&type=oracle_database&pageName=/database/storage/tablespace/showSegments&cancelURL=/em/console/database/storage/tablespace%3Foname%3DEXAMPLE%26event%3Dview%26otype%3DTABLESPACE%26target%3Ddbca%26type%3Doracle_database&oname=EXAMPLE&otype=TABLESPACE&processId2=1284272607223which proves the service is running and fully functional.
    The question is: Why is emctl reporting the service as not running when it is most definitely running ? Any ideas ?
    Thank you for your help,
    John.

    Dear 440bx - 11gR2,
    I had the same problem and the enterprise manager is running. The agent is not running on your situation but the enterprise manager itself is running.
    When you type emctl start dbconsole it keeps printing dots (.) and saying the dbconsole can not be started. Actually the dbconsole is started but the agent is not.
    Please type;
    emctl status dbconsoleHere is my output (enterprise manager is running);

  • Question about LCD screen on Satellite A500-1F4

    Hi everyone.
    I am planning to purchase new laptop and I've seen the specs of Satellite A500-1 F4 and Satellite L505-13W. I like the 16" screen in A500 but there is one thing not clear, what do they mean about truebright display? Compared to L505, it has HD LED display.
    Also, what is much better video card? NVIDIA GE force or the ATI Radeon? Both the A500 and L505 have the same 1GB video card capacity, the difference in the brand.
    Thank you.

    You see, it's like with Cpu from Intel and Amd. Some users say that Intel is better, when others are Amd.

  • Question about memory expansion on Satellite A80-117

    I have a question regarding the memory compatibility.
    (The A8-117 is a 1.6 GHz Centrino (Pentuin M processor 730) with 533 MHz FSB, and 2 MB of 2nd level cache, Intel® 915GM Express chipset)
    At the moment i have 1 chip of 512MB (333MHz, CL 2.5) installed. I plan to upgrade to 1.5 or 2GB. So what bothers me is: can I install a 533MHz DDR2 modules on this laptop (in that case the old 333MHz one goes out)?
    At the official Toshiba site only 333MHz DDR are provided, while the 915GM express chipset allowes it.
    If 533 is not possible i guess i'll just buy additional 1GB of 333MHz DDR.
    Thanks in advance!
    Bostjan

    Hello
    At first I want to say that is always recommended to use compatible and tested RAM modules. On this way you will be sure it will work well and without any problems.
    According the notebook specification you can upgrade RAM to 2GB max and compatible modules are: PC2700 512MB (PA3312U-2M51) and PC2700 1024MB (PA3313U-2M1G).
    You can use faster RAM modules but for me it is really not necessary. The notebook specification is 333MHz bus speed and faster modules will not help that notebook runs faster. It is better to buy 2 x PA3313U-2M1G and you will have no problem and notebook will runs much much faster than before.

  • Question about memory upgrade on Satellite A210-127

    I upgraded my memory form 2Gb (2x1 Gb) to 4Gb (2x2 Gb) with two Kingston memory modules KVR667D2S5/2G (PC2-5300 CL5).
    For two weeks there were no problems but then I got blue screen every time when system boots reffering to I guss memory error.
    I tried to replace memory with original Toshiba's modules but blue screen remains. I have conctacted the service and they say that
    it may be memory incompatibility, virus or hard disk malfunction.
    After few days of working on the solution I reinstal my laptop with Toshiba DVD and replace original memory. Now everything works fine.
    I wonder is Kingston memory cause of my problem or somethig else?
    Does anyone know is Kingston memory KVR667D2S5/2G 2Gb compatibile with Toshiba?

    I've got an answer forom Kingston Customer Service Specialist:
    Dear Mr. Sekovanic,
    Thank you for your e-mail and for your interest in Kingston Technology.
    Please note that the memory module with the part number KVR667D2S5-2G is a ValueRAM generic part, built to industry guidelines meeting the JEDEC standard. As they are not tested on any motherboard, we cannot guarantee compatibility of these modules with a specific system.
    The branded memory module KTT667D2/2G is designed, manufactured and tested in a specific systems or system series, such as the Toshiba Satellite A210-127. Although the technical specifications are quite similar we do not recommend to use the ValueRAM module on a specific system as yours.
    We trust that the above information will be of assistance to you. However, should you have further queries please do not hesitate to contact us.
    so it's not compatibille.

  • Question about memory upgrade on Satellite 2140 (PS241C-2PW9XP)

    I wanna upgrade my memory up to 1gb and i have a pc3200 533 stick.
    I am wondering if it would be ok or do i specifically need pc2700?
    Thanx :)

    Hi
    Do you mean the Satellite 2410 or the 2140?!
    I ask it because the Satellite 2140 supports the 144-Pin PC100 SODIMM memory modules!!!
    http://www.orcalogic.co.uk/asp/prodtype.asp?prodtype=5523&ft=m&st=3
    and
    Satellite 2410 supports 200-Pin PC2100/PC2700 DDR SODIMM memory modules
    http://www.orcalogic.co.uk/asp/prodtype.asp?prodtype=6080&ft=m&st=3
    I would use the memory modules recommended by Toshiba because in such case you can be 100% sure that the notebook will run stable and properly!!!

  • Re: Question about RAM expansion on Satellite M60

    *RAM extention*:
    What kind of memory should I buy if I want to extend it from 512MB to *2GB* or more for
    *Satellite M60*-182 under Windows XP Home Editon with Service Pack 2
    I mean: frequency, symbol, producer etc. to work properly?
    oczkim

    Hi,
    your machine can be upgraded to a maximum main memory capacity of 2GB, which means:
    to expand the memory to the maximum limit what the machine is able to, you must put 2x 1GB DDR2 S0DIMM modules with a frequency of 533Mhz in both slots of your machine.
    I would suggest you the following brands: Toshiba, Kingston, OCZ

  • Drive is not reading any discs on my Satellite A100-192

    Hi,
    today i wanted to watch a dvd movie, i've inserted the disc into the drive and waited for an autostart to play...nut nothing happened.
    Drive LED is on all the time and i can't access the drive in windows. I've tried with several original dvd discs and one blank cd /i've got nothing else in here/.
    What could cause this problem?
    I've tried it in Windows XP and Vista Beta 2 :/
    Best regards,
    Krystian

    Hi
    One question: Did you use the Toshiba recovery CD? If not, please check if this issue appears on the Toshiba image.
    If you dont get any auto start messages after DVD inserting into the drive so I would firstly check the settings.
    Please make a right click on to the drive icon. Then please select the AutoPlay tab.
    There you can choose the dvd movie and select an action. Otherwise you can enable the option prompt me each time to choose an action
    If this doesnt help so you can also try to remove the drive from the device manager. After this procedure please reboot the unit. The OS should recognize the drive again. Then try to play DVDs again
