Satellite A300D PSAKCE - Win 7 64bit driver problems

Sorry for my english - google translated
When toshiba plans to release drivers for Windows 7 64bit? I can not use properly my operating system, not to mention that "Toshiba recommends Windows 7", but offers no drivers for it.
The laptop is A300D PSAKCE. every month i go to service because it gives numerous defects.
Before that I was disappointed that the sound card on my new laptop has just Mic recording, no Line in, no Stereo Mix, and had to buy foreign.
What I can tell you is that you need to tighten not a little, much!

Hi
To be honest I also don’t know when Toshiba will release Windows 7 drivers for this notebook but I noticed that every day more and more drivers will be released. I can understand you that you want Windows 7 drivers as fast as possible but for some models it takes longer I think. I’m also waiting for some drivers…
I recommend checking the Toshiba page from time to time. Maybe they will be released in next days. Who knows? ?:|
By the way: Have you tried the Vista drivers? The most of them work on Windows 7 too. I can say this from my own experience.

Hi mate
Did you try to install the O2Micro Card Reader Controller driver v 3.25 for Windows Vista 32 Bit?
Usually this Vista driver should work with Win 7 as well!
The Toshiba European driver page provides this driver!
Try to install it!

Satellite 2800-400 sound card driver problem with XP-SP2

I have upgraded my Satellite 2800-400 to XP-SP2 and my sound card driver does aperently not work with SP2. I have downloaded the latest driver that I can find and that is 5.12.1.5245 from 2002, but this driver does not work together with the program Skype. I get a massage that the sound card driver does not suport SP2.
How can I solve this problem without deleting the SP2 upgrade.
Message was edited by: felixnorway

I have tried both drivers and the same problem ocurs.
After ecessive testing I have found out that everything/skype now works well for 1-2 hours. Then sudenly my compter does something (I do not now what, and I can not se that the computer does anything) and then sudenly Skype starts beeing blocked by SP2. At the same time (same minute) that Skype after 1-2 hours of perfec running sudenly is beeing blocked, my computer somehow have loaded a file named kernel32.dll for the second time. How i found out this is just a coinsidence, no errors indicates this file beeing involved and this is maybe normal. The file is located at C/Windows/system32/kernel32.dll. Do you know what my comuter does after this amount of time and why it loads this file for a second time. When I turn on my comuter the file is loaded and that is logical, but after 1-2 hours what is the logic for the computer to load it again. Is this something I can shutt off?
My computer runs perfect and smoth for 1-2 hours, then I beliwe the whole system32 is loaded again and this causes some kind of problen and makes the SP 2 kick in.
Any advice?

Satellite A30: Sound card & Chipset driver problem.

Hi all,
I'm about to get REALLY crazy!! I'd really appreciate if anyone can help me..
My story is:
I've lost all my recovery&driver CDs that were given to me in 2004 . But, I had to format my pc at this weekend due to many system reasons(bugs, unable to connect to net, etc).
My first step was I downloaded all kind of drivers for Satellite A30 from Toshiba site. And I got XP professional SP2 from my friend and installed it. But after finishing all the installations below is the result:
1) NO SOUND :(
2) Question marks on 2 items that are a)Multimedia Sound Controller and b)PCI Modem in Device Manager/Other Devices.
3) Chipset installation error message: Intel(R) Chipset installation utility requires chipset platform supported by the supporting operating system. Please read system requirements section in readme.txt for further info.
As far as I checked in forums my chipset was not properly installed, but, when I try yo install the Intel chipset 895PE (csutil-sa30-xp-5011015.zip) that I downloaded from download address http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com, it gives error message and some people tells to install drivers in a right order as, first install XP with SP1 and then install chipset utilitt, then install SP2 etc..But this seems to be not easy for me..
I can really repeat my FORMAT process again, but in which order..
thanks..

Hi,
Just to inform you that my problem was solved by itself :)
I've reformatted my laptop and installed the original XP Pro SP2 again by following the instructions.
Sound problem was solved automatically, no chipset utility installation required..
The sound problem was probably caused due to missing Microsoft KB835221 update for SP1, and KB888111 for SP2, which then was solved with the original latest XP..
Rgrds..

MOVED: Neo2 Platinum - Nforce 3 - Vista 64bit Driver Problems

This topic has been moved to Vista problems.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=108696.0

Hi Paul,
I think that there will be no problems - if you include a good PSU in the set up.
I would recommend to see what BIOS there is coming with the board - 1.9 or higher will recognise the X2 CPUs. If not strictly necessary, I would advice against flashing the BIOS of this board, unless - of course - you encounter specific problems. In that case I would flash an official BIOS (1.B) and not a beta, or modded BIOS.
At present the 4800 X2 is still quite expensive; the 4400 X2 is much better from a price/performance point-of-view ...
As far as RAM is concerned: why would you want to run 4GB of RAM? For normal programs/games, 1GB is more than sufficient and only with some of the newest games a noticeable increase in performance can be seen when 2GB is used in stead of 1GB. It is hard to imagine that adding 2 GB more will lead to an increase in performance. Instead it must be expected that you will loose performance (because of dropping to 333MHz, looser timings, etc.). I therefore recommend to go for 2GB of good quality RAM.
Hope this helps,
Hans

Win 7 32-64 bit drivers for Satellite A300D-17G PSAKCE

hello, everybody!
I've read previous topics regarding win 7 drivers for A300, though I'd like to consult on my own problem. I've got A300D.
Toshiba drivers page offers very limited list of drivers for Satellite A300D-17G PSAKCE.
http://ru.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=RU
Why?
Where shall I get the rest?
No matter for 32 or 64 bit. I'll be happy with any of them.
Thanx in advance!

Everything depands on drivers what you really need...
You should check the device manager.
If there are some unknown devices then use the workaround in the HowTo in order to find such driver.
To be honest there are no many different devices.
WLan, Bluetooth, touchpad are not notebooks specific
Wlan driver can be downloaded from here:
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/
Also Toshiba tools like VAP (value added package) Flash Card support utility and similar can be installed on different notebook models
So I dont think that this is little extreme

Satellite A300D-15B PSAKCE - USB message appears if BT is enabled

Sorry if I'm one of those annoying people who has been posted something that's already been posted.
A couple of weeks ago, my laptop a Satellite A300D-15B series (PSAKCE 00K0DEN) kept coming up with a msg - "USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED" - when nothing was plugged into any of the USB ports (anything I subsequently plugged in any of them works fine).
Today, I was wanting to use bluetooth with my phone. The icon is red and blue as opposed to the white and blue combination it usually has when ready to send files. On opening the 'add new connection' menu, a msg popped up saying "Bluetooth not ready". On the options menu, running a diagnostics reveals this msg: "Check communication with Bluetooth device: Fail".
I disabled Bluetooth and noticed that I stopped getting the USB message too - and on enabling Bluetooth, the message would keep cropping up, indicating that there would be a link between them.
I am a complete technology noob and I have no idea how to fix this, or even grasp what the problem is to start with, and most internet sites that seem helpful also seem full of jargon I can't understand!
I really hope someone can help based on my minimal information, and thanks in advance.

Hi,
a possible fix maybe to uninstall all your USB devices in Device Manager (under Windows XP, I don't know the compartment name under other MS operating systems).
It helped me, when I was using a usb hub and switched the devices on it's ports very often. After some time, some of the devices stopped being recognized by the system and I got the "unrecognized device plugged in" message instead.
The uninstallation of the USB components also removes any profiles that Windows created for a particular device (at least that was the explanation that I've found somewhere in the Internet).
If this doesn't help (Windows should reinstall all the drivers after you -> restart your computer), try maybe to uninstall the BlueTooth devices the same way. Write if you have any progress / solution for/with the problem.

Satellite A300D-15B - Upgrade from Windows 7 32bit to 64bit?

I've added an extra 4GB of memory to my Satellite A300D-15B (PSAKCE). When I try to run the Windows 7 64bit upgrade it fails with a blue screen.
Is it possible to upgrade this model to 64 bit Windows 7?

Hi ronchennells,
Theoretically it should be possible to upgrade to Windows 7 64bit You can do/install everything what you want but the important point is drivers
On the official Toshiba website there are no Windows 7 64bit drivers but you can try the Vista 64bit drivers. Normally they are compatible
Generally speaking its not necessary to upgrade to 4GB RAM or more for using Windows 7 64bit. You can also use the 64bit version with 2GB only.
What happens if you start the upgrade with original memory module only?

Display driver for Satellite A300D doesn't work

So Ive reinstalled my Windows Vista, but graphic driver (downloaded from official website) dont works. I downloaded drivers from similar website...same problem....Vista, XP...no function.
Help me someone please (and dont recommend me other systems, like Linux etc... ;-) Thanks!!!

Hi
The Toshiba ATI graphic card driver from the Toshiba European drive page works!
I dont know what you did and what notebook you have but usually there are different A300D series and you should firstly ensure that you have chosen the right series in the driver download form before you would download any drivers!!
After you have downloaded the driver, unzip it and then execute the setup file.

Compatible DVD Drive problem on Satellite U200

I am over in Iraq and my commander's cd drive quit on the Satellite U200 laptop. The drive that was in there was UJDA765 which cannot burn DVD's. The problem with that drive is it quit seeing DVD's and the CD part only worked sometime and then it made noise.
I looked for a compatible DVD burner to replace it with and found UJ-822B. Several sites said it was compatible and I found people that say they were using it. Can anyone tell me if it really is? I already had the drive shipped here. Is there something that I need to do to get the laptop to see it? It does not show up in the hardware section, but it has power and opens and closes correctly. I have moved to the point of considering flashing the bios, I have done that many times but do not see any benefit as the changes in the new BIOS.
If I was wrong, can someone tell me a DVD burner that is compatible?

Thanks Barrie,
I ordered the 765 and installed it, however now I am getting the pxe driver error on bootup and the drive is not found. I checked the in the bios and saw no problems, I did change the order of bootup and that did not resolve the problem as I found that recommended on several sites.
I removed the battery and checked the connections but the plug it plugs into is soldered to the board so that is not a problem. The old drive had a cd/dvd (755 model), it is still found but only the CD works, the dvd does not.
I thought about replacing the laser on the drive itself, but now that I have the new drive and it still is not working I am not sure. I am going to replace the bios with the newest version but other than that I think this laptop is just shot.

Driver Problems on Satellite A205-S4777

My Satellite A205-S4777 is showing a problem with the network adaptor and the mass storage controller.
Can anyone provide a link to a driver download to it?
I have tried the automatically search for software but cant find it.

Hi mate,
since your machine is from USA, you should refer to the american drivers download site: http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_sc_home.jsp
Please search there for the drivers you need because you wont find any drivers on the european sites.

Driver problems with Windows Professional XP 64bit Edition

Well, after looking around the forum here I found an answer that works! I wish I could remember who to give credit too though. I installed the latest Vista drivers and I got static all the time. I tried another members suggestion of disabling the X-Fi device in the Device manager every time I log off and then enable the X-Fi the next time I log in. I have great sound as long as I do that. Also, for connecting to a home system I am using the DTS-60, $00 on this website, but it works well if you havea DTS decoder. I am using the X-Fi extreme Music edition. Good Luck, hopefully another driver is on the way.
