Hi maestro2118,
Since when do you notice this behaviour and what operating system is installed?
Before you install or reinstall any driver, I would recommend removing the old driver first. Then restart your notebook and run CCleaner to remove old registry keys. One restart more and you can install newest webcam driver from Toshiba page.
Check this!!!

I start the computer the screen has blue vertical stripes and says that the Adobe Air application can not be found. Some of my programs don't run and say:
You: Error access violation at 0x0055F525. I reinstalled Adobe Air. No change. I went to the Adobe webside and they said to repair it with a program. I bought RegCure. Didn't change anything. What to do?

Hello cor-el, thanks for your reply. I changed my settings for downloads to desktop and it has appeared on there. When I double click I am asked which program I want to open file. I click firefox and another box "opening install" says I have chosen to open the file which is an application and do I want to save it. This is the only real option so I press save file. I get a box saying this is an executable file which may contain viruses - do you want to run. I press ok and the final box showing C drive file name and desktop appears stating application not found.
This happens the same whenever I try to install.
To my untrained eye the application is not being recognised as an application and I cannot work out how to get it to do that.
My plugin is still showing as out of date.
Is there anything you could suggest. Thanks for your time.

I am having issues related to storage and I believe this is causing my computer to slow down. "Other" files part is the major occupier(180 GB). I have done Omni disk and multiple other cleaning(iTunes-device, restart, etc), yet have not been able to empty

I am having issues related to storage and I believe this is causing my computer to slow down. "Other" files part is the major occupier(180 GB). I have done Omni disk and multiple other cleaning(iTunes-device, restart, etc), yet have not been able to empty any more space, nor to speed up my computer? Any suggestions?

Satellite A300-1MV slow boot up and slow running

I have recently bought an Satellite A300-1MV it runs vista,
I have the trial Mcafee running and the other pre-installed software that came on the laptop. My problem is that on boot up the computer seems to take a ridiculous amount of time to boot up, once past the vista orb it says please wait which lasts about a minute untill the password request appears.
I had a look in the problemreports in control panel and found that the toshiba tempro program was hanging on boot up so disabled it but didn't seem to have any effect, I also find that when for example you double click on a photo thumbnail to view it, it takes about 30 seconds to appear on the full screen allthough the window is shown on the start menu bar at the bottom allmost straight away.
I have defragged the hard drive, scandisk, memory checked, virus checked etc.. I compared it to a friends laptop dell that has less memory but same spec processor and vista and that appears to work 10 times faster.. any ideas?, I do wonder if its a toshiba program causing the problem.
I do though have a problem with acrobat reader opening of its own accord and telling me it can't read the file ( don't know what file)
I have uninstalled this and reinstalled but still have the same issue!...HELP!!!
Cheers

Hello
Very nice thread about slow start up you can find under http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=134947
To be honest I don't like McAfee and I have installed other antivirus application that needs much more resources. Please read this interesting thread and let me know what do you think about it.

Satellite A300 screen keeps jumping up and down

Hi,
What is on my screen keeps jumping up and down, any thoughts, is this a problem with video card in Satellite A300?

I have tried to install the display driver from the European website. During uninstallation I got a messgae to say failures occurred during uninstallation, and then during installation I got the message of Install package failure!
I have my external monitor now connected to laptop, but in personalising display settings, I cannot get my computer to recognise that I have two monitors now, as both keep coming up with number 1 (Multiple Monitors) on ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650, and they both have that degraded view, a bit like in safe mode.
So in checking of device manager under display adapters I have:
ATI Mobility Radeon HD3650
and under Sound, video and game controllers I have:
High Definition Audio Device
Realtek High Definition Audio
In this whole process I deleted a file that was previously here called
ATI HMD...
should I resinstall this?
So I'm not sure if the new display driver has been installed? help.

Satellite A300 - Different sound in PSAJ4E and PSAG8E

I have two Toshiba Satellite A300. One is A300-15K (PSAJ4E) and has Conexant driver instaled. Second is A300-20E (PSAG8E) and has Realtek Semiconductor Corporation driver.
The sound comming from harman/kardon in the first is beautiful and in the second much worse. I tried to install Conexant drive in the second Toshiba but it doesn't work. I tried sound setup but without positive result. My system in both Toshibas is Vista 32 bit. Are there any possibilites to improve the quality of sound in the second Toshiba?
Thanks

>The sound comming from harman/kardon in the first is beautiful and in the second much worse.
Satellite A300-20E support HARMAN/KARDON speakers and Realtek sound chip.
The Satellite A300-15K supports HARMAN/KARDON speakers as well but it supports Conexant sound chip instead of Realtek sound chip.
The Realtek HD audio manager is installed on notebooks with Realtek sound chip and can be found in control panel.
There are different settings which could improve the sound quality.
The Conexant sound chip does not support such HD audio manager and I think this might be the reason for the different sound.

Satellite A300-146 - CD/DVD read and write issue

I have Toshiba Satellite A300-146, Model no : PSAJ0E, 1GB RAM, Intel Dual core 1.87 processor, Mobile Intel(R) 965 chipset family
I'm using windows7 RC version.
My DVD recorder is not working properly.
*1) Not reading 700 mb CD and not reading most DVDs.*
Few months ago, It read sony DVDs, read all CDs and dint read some local DVDs. Now it is not reading sony DVD and and all the CDs I used. But reads local DVDs..
*2) Some times it may write DVDs but most of the time its not writing DVDs. Nero 7 showing 100% but the DVD is not written anything.*
I'm using Vista drivers for my Window 7 OS...
3.Should I install windows 7 drivers..?
4.Is there any specific drivers for DVD drive.?
Experts or those who recovered from the same problem. Please Help me.
thanks in advance.

Hi
Maybe your CD/DVD drive is getting faulty... What do you think?
But before you think about a new drive you should remove the upper- and lowerfilters in registry. You can follow the workaround from Microsoft:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060
Make also sure that the lens from CD/DVD drive is clean. You can use a microfiber cloth to clean it. This cloth doesnt scratch the lens.
Check this!!!
Last but not least there are no special drivers for CD/DVD drive. Its a part of Windows and cant be updated.

Satellite A300-129 - Sound is muted and icon does not respond

Dear all,
I am trying to switch on the sound of my Satellite A300-129 after I had muted it a couple of days ago, but the icon does not respond.
When I click on the right mouse button, I can go to sounds etc., but "Open volume mixer" does not respond either. I have also tried to restart the laptop a couple of times, but that did not help.
What can I do? Your help will be much appreciated.
Heleen

>How do I do that safely without risking losing sound forever?
LOL You will not lose anything for ever. :D in worst case you will have to reinstall the OS using the Toshiba recovery disk.
Access the device manager -> mark the sound card -> use delete button -> reboot the notebook
After new reboot the sound driver should reinstall again and should detect the sound card.

Satellite L450 - Webcam picture is grainy and dark

I dont know if its the web cam on this model is not very good but the web cam is extremely grainy and dark. I have tried all usual playing about with settings but nothing improves the image i.e.,grainy lack of any colour and just generally really poor and the laptop is brand new.
If anyone has a good clear picture please let me know seems a shame because I am happy with the rest of the system.
Thank you in advance

Satellite A300-1AK don't start after update Win Vista

Hello everyone, hope someone can help me
I have a toshiba notebook with a view, I got the bright idea to do an update since a long time that was not updated at the end. I restarted the update as required nb. and then nothing!
The practice turn on the screen toshiba nb out and then the screen stays black, the hard disk does not read it, I tried to put the recovery disk and start it on the drive but nothing, to put the dvd but no operating system, does not read anything...
What happened?? Possible that an update is this damage? The problem and as I said before that I can not act in any way ...!!!
-I can not access the computer in Safe Mode
-always black screen and does not load the hard disk
-I upgraded because I had just reset the notebook with the recovery DVD, so the reader was working, once the update is complete restart of windows I went out this black screen, where I noticed that does not read the hard disk. ..
thanks for all the support and suggestions.
Please send me more 'procedure to execute
Francesco

Hmm you mean you cannot see anything? Neither the red Toshiba Splash Screen?
What to say sounds not good.
But try this short workaround:
Disconnect the AC adaptor, remove the battery. Leave the notebook for some time disconnected from both parts I would wait some hours
Then connect both parts and try to power up
Good luck

Mac does not transfer data from external hard drive when first set up and isn't listed on migration assistant

I've just had a new hard drive in my MacBook, luckily I had backed up everything on my external hard drive.
I've just got home and my MacBook set up as a new one and asked me if I wanted to transfer my old data from an external device. I clicked this option, and a box appeared with me to choose my device so I plugged it in and nothing. It was not listed so I couldn't continue. I clicked go back to continue without transferring any data and tried to use migration assistant. I plugged in my external HD again and it was recognised on the desktop with me being able to open it and see my old document, folders and iTunes etc.
I went on to migration assistant and that came up with much the same choice as the first time so I chose the option again to transfer information from my "other device" again there was an empty box so I cannot choose my device.
I then thought maybe I would need to install snow leopard again as when I got the computer back it was only running leopard and when I previously backed up my mac it was running snow leopard.
So I've now got in my snow leopard disk and put in my password to install leopard and it's not installing!
I'm very frustrated and now it's too late to call apple!
Any help would be appreciated. I don't want to go back to the store again as its 30 miles away!
Thankyou
Vicki

Thanks for the quick reply, Kappy. I did use Carbon Copy Cloner. When I returned the cloned data to the new hard drive I tried starting the computer and I got the logo and the spinning gear. It did not go any further. I also tried starting in safe mode and it would not go to safe mode. I have other bootable volumes on the external drive that I cloned the data to. When I tried migration assistant it would not list the volume that I cloned from the failed hard drive. I can see the users desk top, documents, pictures from the cloned drive.

Firefox needs to close and I can't load Firefox until I close it or reboot. Firefox appears not to be running and is not listed when I press "Ctrl-alt-delete."

Message says that Firefox needs to close. It does not appear to be running even when the "Taskmaster" (Ctrl-alt-delete) is displayed. The message says to close Firefox or reboot my computer. It happens constantly, even though I have closed Firefox, already. It appears to happen most often when I reach a page that refuses to respond to any mouse clicks, although, I can close the page (x). I, then, I cannot open Firefox until I reboot.

Serial number isn't listed under Devices

I recently had 3 ipods stolen. When I to to Preferences / Devices to locate the serial numbers, two of them aren't listed (a new classic and a 5th gen nano). They are both synced with this account! Where can I get these numbers? I need them before they hit the pawn shops.
FYI, my 2nd gen touch and my 6th gen nano ARE listed.

I don't believe you can. iTunes does not store the serial number of iPod classics. You should keep the box from the iPod.

Satellite A300 1lW - Windows 7 installation - any issues?

Good Morning/afternoon!
I would like to install a new intern hard drive on my laptop and I want to put also windows 7 on it.
The issue is that it is the first time I will do this manipulation and I dont really know what sort of functionality will be incompatible with this installation.
- Can you recommand me a windows 7 version which can be suitable for this laptop?
- Which functionality will be deactivated when I will install windows 7 on my new hard drive?
Thanks a lot!
Regards
Remy

I use Win7 32bit on my Satellite A300. It works perfectly and all Toshiba specific functions are there.
Here is the list how I have installed all stuff on my Satellite A300 (PSAG8E):
-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 some drivers are missing
Added Vista stuff:
-Toshiba assist - work properly
-Card reader - installed properly
-Webcam driver for A500 - tested with Skype - work properly.
-Synaptics driver
Win7 works much better and faster as original Vista.
