Recovery on a Satellite A100 (PSAA9) - Deleted partitions and XP Home not Pro

We recently had trouble with our laptop and decided to restore it back to manufacturer settings with the recovery Media CD. My son decided to do it and when he booted up the program he chose the Delete partitions option instead of overwrite.
Now it has completely formatted the HD removing the OS (Windows XP Pro).
When I bought the laptop it came with WXP Pro already installed and just has the Certification Sticker on the bottom of the laptop.
Is there anyway that I can receive a Windows XP Pro installation CD?

Generally all Satellite notebook models are delivered with WXP Home or Media Center Edition operating system. Toshiba has Satellite Pro series and under this name you can get WXP Pro operating system.
Can you tell us which model you have exactly A100-xxx?
If your notebook was in showroom by the dealer it is possible they have used own OS installation instead of delivered recovery media.

How to create a complete new image for Satellite A100 PSAA9E ?

My Satellite A100 PSAA9E is so incredible slow that I think the only option is to uninstall everything. Mean how can I restore my laptop to its original condition inlc. latest driver units.
best regards,
stef

Hi,
Before making a new installation you can clean your system using software like TuneUp utilities. it's shareware but you can use it free for a month. It cleans the registry, removes duplicated files, and...
If you want to restore to it's original condition, use recovery disks or Hdd recovery image (Pressing F8 on startup). If you didn't burn and hdd recovery image gone, you can order from Toshiba for money or get windows copy for installation (all the drivers you can find on Toshiba driver page)

Wrong nvidia drivers for Satellite A100 (PSAA9)

I downloaded nvidia drivers 97.45 but this driver recognizes my GeForce Go 7600 card as NVIDIA Quadro NVS 110M. Is there something wrong with the drivers?
At nvco.inf I found that there is only support for the latter card. What is happening?

I wrote here last week but nobody answer me. I have Satellite A100-PSAA9 and driver doesnt work on Windows Vista. It says "This driver compatible with Wista Vista" so I'm using Windows Vista Ultimate also Turkish language. I was thinking maybe problem is Turkish version but I see it is not.
I called Toshiba Turkey customer support but they said "We didnt test yet Vista driver, please bring your laptop here. Maybe we will report this Toshiba Europe and they will release new driver soon". I dont want to bring it anywhere, I want some solution.
NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600 doesnt work with Windows Vista Ultimate. Nvidia.com on web sites not release yet any GeForce Go Vista Driver. What does it mean?

Cannot record audio from wave on Satellite A100-PSAA9

Why I can not record realtime Audio Conference with the included RealTec Driver on my Toschiba A100?
Record Options given just, "Microphone-Line In-CD" but Wave is Missing, why?
I have another Notebook from Asus with RealTec Driver and there is it possible, on my Toshiba not, why?

Dear all,
I've read so many posts where people want to record music they hear on their Satellite Notebooks (either wave, or sounds from the internet) and it seems that cornelius solved the "realtec driver" problem - that doesn't meen that it's really a problem of realtec - (where there are only three mixer categories) quite well. But I tried a little - because I don't want to spend 30$ for a new driver and found a cheaper solution (finally I hope, it works at least on my Satellite A100-PSAA9).
What you need is:
first, a program that may record your sounds to mp3 or wave or whatever, I use No23Recorder - but there are lots of other programs working very well. Second you need to buy (mine cost 1) a jack plug (in german: Klinkenstecker) with one male and two female slots. Third, a stereo cable with one jack plug at each end of it (2)
Than you can start recording by putting the jack plug into the headphone slot of your Notebook; than putting the stereo cable into one of the female slots of the jack plug and the other one into the microphone slot of your Notebook. To listen to the things you want to record, put a headset into the free slot of the jack plug - and start recording ;-) !
So if you have enough money and you don't like a bit of cable salad, than I suggest you choose cornelius's way. If you are a poor student like me, perhaps you should try mine?
Cheers, Kat

Satellite A100 - Need 64bit drivers and tools for Windows 7

Hi,
I have W7 RTM from Technet, and I was install 64bit edition on my laptop "Satellite A100 (PSAA9)" I need 64bit drivers and 64bit utilities (Value Added Package,..) but I can not find them... 32bit Value Added package not work on 64bit (installation is rejected ) :/
Sorry, my english is very very bad
Thanks for any advice

Hello
I have checked the Toshiba website and there I cant find drivers and tools for 64bit OS. So I think Akuma is right you should 32bit OS on an old system like Satellite A100. The Toshiba website offers all drivers and tools for Vista 32bit and most of them should also work on Windows 7.
Alternative you can download the drivers and tools from another notebook model that is very similar to yours.
Just search a little bit. :)

An app continues to say "installing" when nothing is happening. It has been several hours now. It's only a book so should not take this long. I have tried deleting it and that did not work.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Does the app now use iCloud, do you use iCloud and do the two of you use the same account on iCloud?
Just a guess.

XD-bit (CPU feature) disabled/unavailable for Satellite A100-PSAA9

Last week I bought the notebook Toshiba Satellite A100-847 (Satellite A100-SPAA9) that has an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, model T7200.
According to Intel specifications this processor (like all Core and Core 2 processors) has the XD-bit feature, known in Windows as DEP. I had the unpleasant surprise to find out that this feature is
reported by Windows as unavailable (in hardware). I understood from the electronic manual on the recovery CD (which is an older edition than the printed manual that comes in the package) that I can make this feature
available (for some older Satellite models) but I couldn't find any option in my BIOS to do this (my BIOS is made by Phoenix, version 2.0).
I really want to know how can I make this feature available/active as my processor supports it and so does the operating system bought together with the laptop and more than that, this feature is something beneficial - especially designed for security reasons and supported by all modern processors and operating systems.
Do I have to wait for an updated BIOS to include this option (to activate the XD bit feature) or to have it automaticaly set as active/available (instead of disabled/unavailable)?
I am expecting a well documented response from somebody who knows what I am talking about.
Thank you very much.

First of all, Ive started this topic hoping that I can obtain a technical and to the point response, regarding exactly what I have asked. I do not wish for this thread to become a technical glossary, because any user that has the slightest notion of using Google or Wikipedia can easily find out what XD-bit, DEP and PAE mean (and those who dont already know what these mean cannot help me).
I am compelled to repeat myself: my problem addresses the technical personnel, who really understand and know what I am talking about; it is not addressed to the average Joe who likes to hear himself talking, but not to the point.
Secondly, anyone can find out that the Intel T7200 processor has the XD-bit feature just by searching on the
Intel site: he will only have to type the words T7200 specifications into the search box; but anyway, here is the link youve asked me for:
http://processorfinder.intel.com/details.aspx?sspec=sl9sf
Thirdly, my system has to support the XD-bit feature because:
a) the operating system acquired together with the notebook is Windows XP SP2 Home Edition (so it is SP2 and yes it is in the PAE mode!)
b) the mainboard and the Intel 945PM chipset support this feature it is the standard Intel NAPA platform (and, just for the record, the only difference between this notebook and another notebook I own is just the processor, which is Core Duo simple -Yonah-, not Core 2 Duo -Merom- as this Toshiba notebook has; and the other notebook has the XD-bit feature enabled and Windows uses it)
Ive also tried to install Windows XP SP2 Professional and I used diagnostic and information programs (e.g. Sisoftware Sandra) but with the same result: I am reported that the processor does not have the XD-bit feature or this feature is deactivated.
Taking into account that Intel has blessed this processor model with the XD-bit feature and Toshiba has used at its turn the omnipotent Intel 945PM chipset which has nothing against the XD-bit feature mentioned above it results that this feature has been deactivated most likely by BIOS.
Ive started the topic [hoping that this forum is visited by Toshiba technicians in order to find out the problems their clients/users encounter and to act accordingly by offering them their support.
PS: I am not mad, not at all; I do appreciate the interest shown in my problem, but I do not wish to accept/encourage useless and pointless discussions.
If you wish, we can have other discussions on hardware topics but not on this thread in which I only hope to obtain the solution to my problem (solution that can come by a possible update of the actual version of the BIOS present on the site).

Need WXP drivers for Satellite A100 (PSAA9)

Hiya,
I've had to re-install Windows XP on my laptop. I don't have the Toshiba drivers CD though.
So I came here to get the drivers but I've no idea which driver goes with which hardware in my Device Manager.
Here's what I need the drivers for under Device Manager...
Ethernet Controller
Mass Storage Controller
Network Controller
PCI Device
PCI Device (again)
SM Bus Controller
Can anyone advise which specific driver I need for each?
Many thanks,

Special RAM brand for Satellite A100 (PSAA9)?

Hi,
I have a Satellite A100-504 (PSAA9) with only 1 GB RAM. CPUZ says it's a Hyundai HYMP512S64BP8-C4 PC2-4300 module.
I want to upgrade to 2 GB and was wondering whether I have to buy some special sort of RAM? Do I have to buy also Hyundai RAM or can that be a different brand? What about the specifications? Which RAM modules would be the best in combination with Vista and that Hyundai HYMP512S64BP8-C4 1 GB module?
Thank you for your help!
Bob

One more thing: you can of course buy the memory modules from different manufacturers but be sure you use high quality product. I can recommend you also Kingston memory modules.

What does the recovery CD contain - Satellite A100-847

Hello guys
I had a few questions about the recovery CD:
1- What does the recovery CD contain? and the other CD which is called Media something?
2- Does it have Windows in it? So I can format my PC using it? And from where can i find the product key (windows key)
3- What if i wanted to use the CD without formatting? etc. installing the softwares?
Sorry for asking too much but my laptop started disturbing me. Just for knowledge my Laptop is satellite A100-847

Hello
I will try to answer your question.
1 Recovery media contains recovery image. Recovery image is a kind of package that contains operating system, all necessary drivers, Toshiba tools and utilities and some additional software like WinDVD or Norton antivir application. Media something is not known to me. Maybe exact description can help.
2 Yes it has Windows OS. Yes you can format your notebook using it. You do not need product key. Just install it.
3 I do not know what you mean. The fact is that HDD will be formatted before you start recovery installation. Be sure all your important data are saved on some external device.
Bye

Satellite A100 (PSAA9): Win7 + screen brightness adjustment issue

Hi
I have installed Windows 7 64-bit on my toshiba A100 (psaa9) machine, and i cannot modify screen brightness anymore.

how can i fix my problem?
thanks

hi all,
thank you for reply!!!
ok, i tried to install VAP and Flash Card Utility for Satellite L500. first, installing Flash Card Utility i got invalid serial number error. i've read in forum that it might be due to inappropriate driver for my version on laptop or if i did not install VAP first. so, second, i tried to installed VAP, but i get value "Setup tvap error 0x8146045B" :(
according my display driver: it was nVidia driver automatically installed with win7. in fact there is no display driver for win7 64bit version on toshiba website... i guess i have more problems with display, as my secondary display blinks every time some system event like driver/program installation or usb device plugging-in or -out happens.
