Re: Satellite L300-1A8 - SATA and sound driver

I had to change SATA from AHCI to compatible, because I wanted to install Windows XP on my L300. Is there any way to install SATA driver under existing OS?
And one more problem. I cannot install the sound driver.
Installation passes ok, but after restarting there is no sound or even installed sound card in device manager, and there is still by the PCI device.
Need help as soon as possible

Yes, that was the problem.
If you install Windows XP and you hade set the SATA mode to AHCI, you must press F6 to load the drivers.
Download the drivers and copy it on an external FDD.
But there is an other option. You can use nLite: http://www.nliteos.com
nLite is a tool for pre-installationd Windows configuration an component removal at your choice. You can also integrate the SATA drivers, Service Packs, etc. So must not press F6 and not use an external FDD.
By the way, it's normal when your laptop is a little bit slower, because the SATA drivers are missing.

  • Satellite L300 does not have sound and modem is also not working

    I have this Toshiba Satellite L300 (PSLB8A--1F004) an Australian model which was working perfectly well until I changed the harddrive after it developed bad sectors.
    I have installed Win Vista Business.
    I have all the drivers (TOSAPINS folder) that came with the original harddrive but when I did installed the drivers by following the correct order. i.e chipset, display, common modules, audio, modem and all other drivers.
    There is still a little red x on the taskbar saying " No audio output device is installed" and also I noticed that the modem is not listed under device manager. I have also tried replacing a working modem card from a same model laptop but it is still not showing any signs of picking up the modem as well as sound driver.
    I made attemp to download drivers from mytoshiba.com.au under the exact model and OS and installed but to no avail the problem is still there.
    No sign of modem picked up and the little red x on taskbar still says " No audio output device is installed" and on device manager its not showing the audio or modem. there is also nothing in yellow exlamation marks and also I've tried to view hidden devices but still there is no sign.
    Is there any thing else that I've missed out that I can try again?
    WewakMaster

    No I dont have the vista service pack and the internet speed at my end is too slow to download it.
    So I have tried installing windows 7 but the problem still remains.
    I have now removed win7 and have installed WIndows XP SP3 but there is still no sign of audio so Im stuck with win XP SP3 and trying to find solutions now.
    I think the problem may have been caused when I upgrade the bios...and Im still looking for ways to downgrade the bios to its original bios to confirm this.

  • Satellite L300 - can headphone and speakers work simultaneously?

    I have a Satellite L300 with self-installed Windows XP (Realtek Sound Driver 5.10.0.5559 from Toshiba website).
    Plugging the headphones turns the speakers off. I want that speakers and headphones working simultaneously. What can I do? Thank you for help.
    Sincerely H. Reinhold

    Thank you for your answer.
    1. I think, it is not a "mechanism in the headphone jack", because if I plug the Headphone, the speakers turn off not immediately but a short time later. So I think it must be a software action.
    2. "But why do you want to have both of them working simultaneously?"
    I want to trigger an electronic control when a sound signal is starting and parallel I will hear the sound. If the headphone speaker switching would be a software action, I need no external speakers, as you have suggested. A change in the configuration is always the most elegant solution. That's why my asking.

  • Satellite Pro M30 - cannot install sound driver

    Hi
    I have a Satellite Pro M30 which usaed to work fine but I can no longer install sound card drivers on it.
    I THINK it has happened since we reinstalled windows XP Pro with SP2 but can not be certain.
    It is trying to install the Sigmatel AVC97 drivers and comes up with the following error.
    Invalid operating system parameter or this installer does not support this operating system
    Any suggestions as there seems to be only one sound driver for the SPM30 family.

    Nobody here have got a problems with sound driver installation just you
    So is this not strange for you???
    Either you did something wrong or its your windows XP issue.
    Please note that the Toshiba driver page provides also the Installation Instructions
    There you can find the right installation order!
    Install your OS again and follow this instruction in this doc!

  • Satellite L300 - after Win8 load DVD drive is not working

    I have just loaded Windows 8 on my Satellite L300. The DVD no longer works with an error message 39 it says the driver is corrupt. Also external attached DVD's are not recognised. I cannot find a driver to reload.
    Any suggestions.
    Regards

    Check this article:
    http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/bulletinDetail.jsp?pf=true&soid=3516888
    If the TOSHIBA Recovery Media Creator or TOSHIBA Disc Creator are installed on the HDD, there might be a issue between Win 8 and mentioned software
    So uninstall these tools, then restart your PC using the Power-->Restart option in Windows 8. Your CD/DVD should be accessible now.

  • Satellite L300 - Is overheating and shuts down

    I've just got my laptop back after getting it fixed (new HDD & BIOS/FW update according to the sheet that came with it). But now another problem has developed with the laptop overheating & auto shutting down a lot as a result.
    Is there any way to check that the fan is actually working inside as I think that it might not be?

    Hello
    Maybe you have to clean the notebook. What do you think about this?
    I have Satellite L300 too and I clean it every 3 months. Im wondering how much dust comes out if I clean it using compressed air spray. This is very nice to clean the notebook because I dont have to disassemble the notebook and it takes only few minutes.
    Compressed air spray you can buy from every computer shop so check this!!
    Last but not least did you install the correct BIOS for your L300? Because on the Toshiba driver download page you can choose between different L300 models.

  • Satellite L550 - Can't load sound driver in Win XP

    I bought a Satellite L550 with Vista preinstalled and want to use XP.
    I have loaded XP and have no sound device.
    I downloaded the Sound Driver TC40072000A.exe but when I execute it, it extracts and then does nothing.
    Maybe I need some other drivers loaded first?
    Please help, thanks,
    John

    Hi
    The notebook needs an Realtek HD sound driver.
    You can download such driver directly from the Realtek driver page.
    But before you would try to reinstall the sound driver, you will need to update the Win XP!
    All service packs SP2 and SP3 have to be installed!!!!
    This is very important since the SP3 contains necessary patches and fixes.
    After the SP3 installation you could follow with sound driver

  • Satellite A45-S1202.​..sound driver not working?

    Greetings.  I couldn't find this problem by browsing/searching the forum, so here I am:
    My laptop's sound works, but ONLY if I'm using the Imaging disc that came with the comp.  I've tried a copy of XP Professional w/ SP1...no sound, so I reinstalled the drivers, and it still didn't work.  Here's where it gets confusing: I've taken my laptop to a computer store and had XP Pro installed by them and everything worked fine.  The tech even included copies of all the drivers he installed, so I could do it myself.  I tried it again a few years later, and I didn't have sound.  I was fine with keeping it with the very basic version of XP that the thing came with, but in order to get the new version of iTunes, I needed SP2, and my new iPod needs SP3.  So, I install SP3 and yep, no sound again.  It looks like the newest sound driver for this computer is six years old (which means more it was a year old when I got the dang computer).  Any way to fix this? 

    Actually...it's fixed itself.  I don't understand, but hey!

  • Qosmio G10 Graphics and Sound driver installation

    Hi
    I have recently tried to reinstall my Toshiba Qosmio G10 after downloading all the latest drivers of the Toshiba site.
    Unfortunately I have had my motherboard and display replaced over the last 3 years (under Warranty) , which means all the hardware has changed from the original laptop I bought (now has Graphics card ,NVIDIA GeForce go 6600, new chipset, etc, as far as i remember).
    Does anyone have a system recovery cd or a place I can download the correct drivers for this laptop.
    I am a sys admin, and technical and have spent about 5 hours pulling out my hair trying to get the video and sound drivers working.

    Hi!
    It is pretty easy to get drivers for a Toshiba notebook.
    Did you search on Toshiba website?
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com => Support & Downloads => Download Drivers
    Search for Qosmio G10 and then you will find it.
    Bye

  • Stupid or smart? SATA and USB drive in RAID1

    Hi All,
    I would like to use the cubieboard as a fileserver. I would like to make a RAID1 setup of 2 hard drives, but the cubieboard only has 1 sata port.
    Is it possible to make a RAID1 array from a SATA hard drive together with an USB drive? Would the USB drive slow down the sata drive?
    Best regards,
    Cedric

    You can use the Get Image method and save it to .png (or .gif or .jpg):
    EDIT: Note that because of the way snippets work, the snippet included a control reference. You can simply create the method directly from the control by right-clicking and selecting Create -> Invoke Node -> Get Image.

  • Sata and ide drive troubles

    I tried searching on this, but didn't find what I was looking for.  If my sata drive is plugged in on it's own, everything boots fine, but when I hook up my ide drive, windows won't boot.  It goes through the Nvidia boot utility and tells me it can't find a boot disk.  Even if I go through and manually select the sata drive as the boot drive, it still doesn't work.  I've tried the ide drive on my primary channel with a cdrw on the secondary, and vice versa.  I know it will work, because it worked previously.  Had to format and reinstall and now it's a no go.  I've tried the sata on channels 1 and 3 with nothing different

    I must say I had similar problem.   While swapping IDE cables back and forth among different hdrives, the computer would not boot, would not even recognize the WD or Maxtor hard drive in any master/slave configuration.  In fact in the POST,  it would see my SATA Hitachi, but would refuse to boot from it.
    The solution was a new replacement IDE cable.  I guess, after several dozens of swaps, if not careful, some of the tiny cable strands in the IDE cable will be damaged permanently as a result of pulling on them while trying to connect/disconnect them.   The evidence of a damaged IDE cable is not apparent.  This happened to the red MSI supplied cable that came with my mobo.
    After struggling with this problem for a day, I did come up with the idea of just trying and replacing the cable, and voila - problem was solved, and puter booted up no problem.
    Hope that helps.

  • Can you have SATA and PATA drives at the same time?

    Right now I have 2 PATA drives hooked up to the board. Is it possible to hook up a SATA drive that will be a non-boot drive for just storage purposes?

    You can havepata disks + Sata, with sata as boot or not, you just need to update the Hard disk boot order in advanced bios settings.
    luck

  • [Satellite L645d-S4036] Grahical and Sound problems post-Win10 Upgrade

    Hello. Af ter upgrading to Win10, I suffered from two major issues. I rolled back to 7 until I can resolve them. 1) My sound was not working. My headset was fine, as it has it's own driver, but the Conexant sound was not functional. 2) My graphics were not working properly. If I tried to launch a game, the graphics would crash. Can anyone help me, maybe with more current drivers? Sound: Conexant CX20587 SmartAudio HD, Version 4.112.0.61 Graphics: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200, Version 8.970.100.1100 (I just updated this)

    This would be for the AMD card. http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/mobile?os=Windows+10+-+64 (if using 64bit Windows 10) http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/mobile?os=Windows+10+-+32 (if using 32bit Windows 10) For the audio, I believe there is an updated driver from driverscape, however, I don't have it so I cannot test it.
