Satellite A300 - Error if I extract downloaded VAP

There seems to be a problem with the latest VAP (1.2.28) for A300-models for Windows 7 x64. I want to unzip the package but winrar gives me an error regarding the TC20043200A.exe file. It seems the file is broken or something.
Anybody else facing this problem??

Hi mate
Did you try to use the WinZip?
Try it!
I have downloaded this file and was able to unzip it using the *WinZip.*
But using WinRAR I got the same error
Possibly there is something wrong with the package however WinZip works fine!

Re: Satellite A300 - Error loading operating system

Hi, I have a laptop satellite a300 and when I boot the system I get an error message 'Error loading operating system' - if some kind poster can help me on this matter it would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Do the BIOS recognize the HDD? Check this in BIOS.
Can you boot in safe mode?
If you can go in the advanced boot menu, choose repair my computer and select the Toshiba recovery option. This procedure reinstalls the OS.
This feature is only available with a preinstall Windows Vista. If you have Windows XP, you must use the CD.

Satellite A300-1N9 - Where can I download Windows 7 drivers and tools?

Welcome
At the outset I want to thank you for any help or steer me to an idea about the drivers for this model, for a moment I will describe what exactly it.
I bought this laptop with Vista I got him a CD with the system and on this record were already drivers and add-ons to your laptop or other cool things such as Toshiba drivers for camera, Bluetooth, Synaptics, dvd software, and a program or driver I do not know exactly what it is, but such a cool thing that allows you to set the lights on the whole panel, including a laptop with the word "Satellite". Everything fits nicely, but only with Vista that I got on the board from Toshiba.
Now, I went on Windows 7 As for the fundamental drivers that have them from the manufacturer Toshiba eg driver webcam or mouse. But the more I depend on these great things that I had under Vista, even though that panel backlighting laptop.
Does anyone have any idea on this that all additives in the CD that I got, where it is Vista, you can somehow extract these extras, or is a site where you can download it all, or a list of these additives to Win match 7
Thanks in advance again for any help.
Yours

Hi
First of all you can download all drivers and tools from the Toshiba website:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
For the illumination buttons and illuminated Satellite you have to install Toshiba Value Added Package. It activates also all functions on the FN keys.
As far as I know the illumination can also be turned on/off in BIOS. Check this!!!
The webcam driver is also listed on the Toshiba page and touchpad driver to enable virtual scrolling.
I hope I could help you a little bit! :)

Help...

It sounds to me like your Internal Hard Drive is failing.
I recommend you buy a new one, that is a good candidate for replacing the old one, but install it in an External enclosure and Install a fresh Mac OS X on it from the DVD. You can boot your Mac from any attached drive.
The new System can be used to get some work done, check your emails, and takes the pressure off resolving this immediately. You can also attempt to salvage files off the old drive if needed.
Once things seem to be working, then move the new drive inside the computer. Failures at this point may be due to bad cable, which has been a problem in some of these MacBooks.
Use security erase, write Zeroes, one pass, to re-write every block on the old drive. Any block discovered to be bad will be replaced with spares the drive holds in reserve for this purpose. If more than 10 blocks are pared on one pass, "Initialization Failed!" will be the result. Although you can try the erase again, there is some question whether you want to trust this drive with your precious data.

Satellite A300 PSAGQE - Driver errors after uprgading to Win 7

I have "Toshiba Satellite A300 PSAGQE" 2 days ago I updated my Windows Vista to Windows 7.
Many Driver are ok and working without trouble but 3 drivers are makin trouble as I have noticed.
This are;
Toshiba Firmware Linkage Driver ACPI\TOS1901
Ricoh RL5C592 Memory Stick Bus Host Adapter
Ricoh RL5C843 SD/MMC Host Controller
my "FN" is not working and the LED lights are not going on!!!
I searched the whole internet for solutions and saw many people having the same trouble. There are problems but non solutions...
I hope I can fiend help for this problmes here.

Hi Yol_Gezer,
To be honest for me it doesnt sound like problems because you need only new drivers for your notebook they are listed on the Toshiba page:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
You need the card reader and Bluetooth driver I think.
Regarding the FN and illumination You should install Toshiba Value Added Package. ;)

CD/DVD drive does not work - error code 39 on Satellite A300

Good evening.
I've encountered a problem with my Satellite A300.
I can't get the disk drive to function.
Device manager says the driver is current. But also says it is corrupt "code 39".
I have tried downloading new drivers from Toshibas website but they all come up as code 39 unable to install. The first I noticed it was last night when I was installing Norton 360. I had the cd it worked once then nothing.
Has anyone ran across this before?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi
I had the same issue and I found a solution here in the forum.
The problem is that your Windows registry is muddled up.
You should firstly access the device manager and should remove the CD/DVD drive from the device list.
Secondly you have to start the registry and have to remove the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters values completely from the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
Finally reboot the notebook and test the CD/DVD drive again!

Satellite A300-276 - nvraid.sys error on Windows start

Good evening,
I am recently trying to install Windows 7 in my Satellite A300-276. I actually install it but when I want to start it apears a message saying:
"Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix (...)"
and then, in the same page:
"File:\Windows\system32\Drivers\nvraid.sys"
"Status:0xc0000098"
"Info: Windows failed to load because a critical system driver is missing, or corrupt"
Could someone help me with this?
Thank you very much.
Best regards,

I have installed Win7 32bit on my Satellite A300-1LI and on P300D successfully and it runs perfectly.
I don't have time to read the whole thread but what I sugesst you is to install Win7 32bit again and all other stuff following my installations order. It worked for me so I think it should be ok for you too.
Here we go:
Satellite A300 (PSAG8E) and clean Win7
-Win7
-chipset driver
-storage manager
-display driver
-sound driver
-modem driver
-supervisor utility
-infrared
-patches
-configfree
-VAP
-toshiba hardware setup
-HDMI control
-WLAN driver
Everything runs well but some Win7 drivers were missing so I have installed follow Vista stuff.
Added Vista stuff:
-Toshiba assist - work properly
-Card reader - installed properly
-Webcam driver for A500 - tested with Skype - work properly.
-Synaptics driver

Satellite A300-24z - VAP - buttons illumination doesn't work properly

Sorry about my English.
I have notebook Satellite A300-24z, Model number PSAG8E and Vista 32 bit.
I try to setup this driver and keys up the numbers are not having light.
I try to do this 3 times and still is not working.
Can somebody help me?

To be honest I don't know what do you mean with format the windows with the folder of drivres by mistake.
Can you use these buttons? Do they work?
Do you have problem with illumination only?
Open Toshiba Assist (shortcut is on desktop) and go to optimize. I think there you can find option to start Toshiba hardware settings. if I am remembering well there is tab called illumination or so. Check if this option is enabled or disabled there.
Check also BIOS settings. In advanced option you can also find settings for ON/OFF illumination.

looking froward for ur help ..
thanks ..

I have very good experiences with Satellite A300 and Win7 installation. No problems at all.
As I can see on Toshiba download page your notebook model is fully supported for Win7 and all you must do is to install all Toshiba stuff in right installations order.
My installations order is:
-Win7 Home Premium (clean installation)
-chipset driver
-storage manager
-display driver
-sound driver
-modem driver
-supervisor utility
-infrared
-patches
-configfree
-VAP
-toshiba hardware setup
-HDMI control
-WLAN driver
Everything works well but missing some drivers
Added Vista stuff:
-Toshiba assist - work properly
-Card reader - installed properly
-Webcam driver for A500 - tested with Skype - work properly.
-Synaptics driver
I really don't know what you are doing wrong. Maybe some background processes block regular start-up.
I recommend you to try again and make it easy step-by-step following my list and let me know on which stage you will be faced with described issue.

Satellite A300 PSAG4A music keys not working

Hi,
I am new to this forum and actually Toshiba related problems in general. :P
I own a Toshiba Satellite A300-PSAG4A laptop running on 32-bit Vista. A few days ago, the Harman/Kardon illumination music keys on it suddenly stopped working. When I'm not using my laptop, I usually put it into Sleep mode and normally wake it up using these touch keys - however for some reason they randomly stopped lighting up and responding.
I tried the usual - rebooting the laptop and frantically testing the buttons but of course they are not responding. The keys and the laptop in itself have served very well up until now an I can't think of any reason why this is happening now.
I'm not super-computer savvy however I have done a bit of reading on the topic of these keys and wanted to try reinstalling the Toshiba Value Added Package method - however I could not find the TVAP file anywhere on my laptop.
Additionally, Toshiba does not seem to offer support for my laptop series (A300-PSAG4A); their download section only caters to the ST series. Please correct me if I'm wrong - I could be searching right or whatever.
I performed a System Health Report to check if it's a driver-related issue and it came up with the following :
Two error messages stating that "The device driver for Base System Device has not been installed" and one stating that "The device driver for #UNKNOWN# has not been installed.
I don't know what any of those mean or if they are relevant to my problem.
Please help?

> Surely they do that I think you searched on a wrong page the A300 PSAG4A seems to be a Toshiba Australian series and therefore you should check Toshiba AU driver page.

Hi, thanks so much! That was really helpful, I didn't know Toshiba has separate sites for different continents. I live in New Zealand, so that'd be why it's an Australian series.
However I mentioned earlier that I can't find the VAP file anywhere on my computer. I have since done additional reading up the subject and learned that the package also enables the FN keys - which don't seem to be working at all. I'm pretty sure my laptop doesn't have the file on it (it is second-hand so the previous owner might have uninstalled it) unless there is some special way of searching for it? Where would it normally be located?

Satellite A300 (PSAG8E) - Hardware problems after installing win7 ultimate

Hello and good day,
I've installed win7 ultimate a few days ago and windows managed to recognize most of my hardware accept my build in mic and camera and another component I am not sure about what it is (Windows update automatically downloaded the sound and graphics driver for me).
My questions are - where can find the remaining drivers and where can I get the preinstalled Toshiba tools and software? (The driver site in the Toshiba support page does not include those drivers and software)
Thank you very much
Roi Ben Simon

Hi
I have Satellite A300 (PSAG8E) too and installed Win7 Home premium and everything works perfect.
At first I must say that I don't know where you have searched drivers and Toshiba tools and utilities because all stuff is downloadable on Toshiba support & download page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com
It is logic that mic will not work if you didn't installed proper driver. Install drivers alone and not using Microsoft update. What you need are real and tested drivers and not some free drivers from internet.
Go to Toshiba download page and install all stuff following this installations order:
-Win7
-chipset driver
-storage manager
-display driver
-sound driver
-modem driver
-supervisor utility
-infrared
-patches
-configfree
-VAP
-toshiba hardware setup
-HDMI control
-WLAN driver
Everything works well but missing some drivers
Added Vista stuff:
-Toshiba assist - work properly
-Card reader - installed properly
-Webcam driver for A500 - tested with Skype - work properly.
-Synaptics driver

Satellite A300-1IK - Can't update Vista

Hello
I recently reset my Satellite A300 to its defaults using the HDDRecovery utility. The OS now is Vista Home Premium SP1, but I am not able to update vista drivers or get the upgrade to SP2, so I am struck with my default SP1.
I tried to install upgrades with auto updater, or by manually checking for updates under "Windows Update " options. I got no results with the first method (planned updates dont start at all), while with the second method when i click the "look for updates" button it tells me "unable to check for new updates; ERROR CODE 80072EFE".
So I tried to download official microsoft executable update packages from their download area, but they all fail at installing.
What am I supposed to do?
Thanks in advance, Alessandro

Hi caiusteblack,
> So I tried to download official microsoft executable update packages from their download area, but they all fail at installing.
What update pack you have downloaded?
Generally speaking if SP1 is already installed you can start with SP2 installation for Vista but SP1 must be installed firstly. SP2 can be downloaded on official Microsoft website (not Windows Update). Download SP2 and start the installation and check what happens.
