Satellite P100-257 - No sound after Win 7 installation

Need help...
I have Satellite P100-257, upgraded from XP to WIN 7. Now my sound device don't work.
I installed driver, but still nothing. In device properties says: device not installed.
However, when I run diagnostic, says that driver has problems and that problem will be fixed after reinstalling driver.
So, it keeps me in the loop all the time.
Tried download some drivers from net, even buy Toshiba Recovery Disk for my model (payed 15$ !!!! for gad's sake!!!!)...
Now, my knowledge here is limited, so any tips, suggestions, solutions are more than welcome!
Thanks!

Thanks m8!
Acctually, after 2 days cracking my head about it, I was this close to buying new machine :)
But, solution was acctually more simple than I thought...And felt so stupid after I finally figured it. Well, Win 7 is more similar to XP than it is to Vista, so I just run simple chec for XP sound drivers on Toshiba download support web site, and it came with one driver for this specific model: *sound-20071106151533.zip* driver. Just needed to check in driver properties for compatibility (XP service pack 3 mode) and simple install...That was it... Run smoothly on WIn 7.
Sometimes, only solution is the simplyest one :)
Thanks anyway!

Satellite P100-429 - No sound after Windows 7 installation

I have a Satellite P100-429 Purchased Nov 2006.
I have just upgraded from XP to Windows 7 and Office Pro Plus. All works well but there is no sound if I try to play a CD. I have done usual checks for Mute etc. but no Joy. In device manager a yellow triangle with exclamation mark within is against my sound device. C
an I download a new driver to solve problem or is it more complicated than that? Than you

Hello
For me it sounds like that you didnt install the sound driver for sound card
According the Toshiba website there is no 64bit sound driver available for Satellite P100 but I noticed that Satellite P300 supports Windows 7 64bit and has Conexant sound card too. Maybe this driver is working for you too.
Just search for Satellite P300 drivers and test the sound driver It should work! :)

Cannot install TEMPRO on a Satellite P100-488 error 1603 with Win installer

Hello,
I am writing this post as I have an issue to install the Tempro software on my Toshiba P100-488.
Indeed, on the first screen, I get an error message reading "installation stopped prematurely".
When I check in the events manager of Windows Vista, then I can see that error 1603 is there.
Can you help me please ?
Thanks in advance ! ;-)

Hi
I searched a little bit on the Microsoft page and found this knowledge base article:
+*You receive an "error 1603: A fatal error occurred during installation" error message when you try to install a Windows Installer package*+
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/834484
Microsoft article says that the error message appears because:
+- The folder that you are trying to install the Windows Installer package to is encrypted.+
+- The drive that contains the folder that you are trying to install the Windows Installer package to is accessed as a substitute drive.+
+- The SYSTEM account does not have Full Control permissions on the folder that you are trying to install the Windows Installer package to. You notice the error message because the Windows Installer service uses the SYSTEM account to install software.+
I recommend checking this document and try the workaround provided by Microsoft.
Maybe it helps
Good luck.

Satellite Pro U200 - No sound after Windows 7 installation

Hi,
I'm having a problem with the sound after installing Windows 7 on a Satelite Pro U200 (PLUA1E). No Win7 sound driver found on the Nordic driver website. Please help.

Hi buddy,
Have you already checked the Toshiba website itself?

I found a sound driver for Vista 32bit and the most Vista drivers also work on Windows 7 so its worth a try!!! :)

Satellite P100-192: crackling sound coming from speaker when using MSN

Hello, i have just bought this p100-192 laptop. The speakers seem to muffle ( especially whenever there is an incoming message in MSN )
Does anyone know why and a solution to it ????

Hi,
I own a Satellite P100-188 and the sound crackled in windows with driver 3.11.0.0 and BIOS 2.10, after sending the notebook back to Toshiba only for them to install driver version 3.11.0.51 I found that some sounds where not playing at all. I have come to the conclusion that the Conexant sound chip (or hardware) is just rubbish, for instance take the sound volume of the beep tone when hitting caps lock or num lock compared to the general volume, which, at full volume is barely audible!
I myself went back to using version 3.11.0.0 as I would rather have crackling sound than missing sounds. I'm considering purchasing a Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS PCMCIA sound card as I play games a lot on my notebook. If sound is important for you, you may want to consider it too.
An eaiser way to check your BIOS version is to click Start select Run... and enter this line in the dialog box
TInTouch.exe and hit enter.
Then switch to the Protect and Fix tab and left click PC diagnostic tool, it will list all the information on your notebook.
This is how I updated my BIOS, I downloaded the win update file and unzipped it, I then ran the Phoenix Winphlash program and entered a bios backup destination and browsed to the .wph file which was in the folder that the program unzipped to, I then followed the onscreen prompts and that was it, the machine re-booted with the new bios installed.

Windows 8 Upgrade on Satellite P100-160 - No Sound

Hello everyone.
I own a Satellite P100-160 {http://www.toshiba.co.uk/discontinued-products/satellite-p100-160/}
I decided to upgrade the machine from Windows Vista to Windows 8.
The machine works o.k. apart from the fact there is no longer any sound.
It seems that windows 8 does not have the correct sound drivers.
Can anyone help me out with a solution?
The laptop is in good working order, and apart from no sound.
Thanks
colesdav.

Hello, thanks for your replies so far.
Just in case anyone else out there has tried to move to Windows 8 on an older laptop I will tell you
What I have tried that did NOT work.

None of the above suggestions / drivers worked.
The drivers all did install but ... no sound from the Laptop.
I accept this is an old laptop but it is in mint condition.
Here is my solution to date.
I bought a Sound Blaster X-fi Go! Pro external USB Sound card from Maplin U.K. yesterday.
It works and the sound quality is great!
I am currently using an external speaker ... but I may try to install the USB sound card inside the
Laptop and see if I can rewire the speakers ...
Here is a link to the USB Card.

By the way I have managed to upgrade 3 of my 4 laptops from Windows Vista /7 to Windows 8.
Here is what worked with comments.
Toshiba Satellite P100-160 - Vista to Windows 8. Only problem = No sound Driver.
Toshiba Satellite L300D - Vista -> Windows 7 - Windows 8. No problems at all.
HP G62 - Windows 7 -> Windows 8. No problems seen yet.
The only machine I cannot upgrade is an HP Envy 15-1060ea due to notebook specific ATI Radeon 4830 Driver.

Satellite P100 (PSPA6A-028017) - Sound driver for Windows 7

Does anyone know what audio drivers to use for this model on Windows 7?
Device manager says "This device cannot start. (Code 10)"
Drivers listed for it are drmk.sys, hdaudio.sys, portcls.sys, sysfxui.dll and wmalfxgfxdsp.dll all of which are listed as "Microsoft" and "Windows 7 RTM"
Various instructions linked to various drivers (on the Toshiba site and elsewhere) none of which seemed to do anything.
None of the drivers on the Toshiba site for this model work.
Hardware was working just fine on XP before the Windows 7 upgrade.
Can anyone tell me what drivers to use for this chipset and/or what else to try?

Hi Jonathan Wilson,
I have checked the Toshiba Australian driver download page where your notebook model is listed and it seems that there are no Windows 7 drivers available at the moment :(
Theoretically you could also use the drivers from the European page, where you can get Windows 7 drivers for Satellite P100, model nr. PSPA6E.

Satellite Pro P100 (PSPA4E) - No Sound Following Win 7 Clean Install

Hello, A European friend really struggling and looking for help.
I have just clean installed Win 7 Home Premium (64 bit) on a Satellite Pro P100 (PSPA4E) which was purchased in November 2006. It was previously running XP and I never installed Vista though the laptop is badged Vista Capable) I followed the Win 7 bios/driver/software install order but I now have no sound at all. Everything that I have tried so far has failed to fix it.
The laptop has a Conexant based audio solution with harman kardon speakers. Win 7 has installed the following driver which reports the following info.
High Definition Audio Device (Microsoft Driver version 6.1.7601.17514 dated 11/19/2010) and Device status: This device cannot start. (Code 10)
Hardware IDs:
HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_5047&SUBSYS_1179FF31&REV_1000 HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_5047&SUBSYS_1179FF31
There is a second exclamation mark in Device Manager for a further unknown device / uninstalled driver (showing code 28) for a device with a Hardware ID of ACPI\SMCB000 but I do not know what this device is!
Does anyone have any suggestions on a fix for my sound issue?
Thanks!
Martyn

Any one have any thoughts on this issue?
I have failed to locate a working / compatible Windows 7 x64 driver for Conexant HD Audio!
Perhaps there isn't one?
Perhaps I need to try harder?!?
Perhaps the on board sound solution featuring Conexant HD Audio is simply ****** as on www.conexant.com they say manufacturers have TOLD them NOT to make drivers available (... to poor unfortunate users)!!!
I think that manufacturers need to step up to the plate and support / help their customers. I own 4 Satellite Pro laptops running Vista x32 and Windows 7 x64. This one cost me well over £1,200 so I don't want to hear or conclude that it is simply scrap! That would represent truly poor value for money - the kind of business case that would undermine my belief that Toshiba laptops are the best in the business.
Ditto Microsoft - the Windows 7 x64 Upgrade Advisor tool gave me the all clear to upgrade this system. All generally appears fine EXCEPT the lack of sound.
Having now been exposed to the experience of many other laptop owners set out in various forums etc, covering both Toshiba laptops and some other major brands, I have to conclude that the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor is flawed and that a successful upgrade is somewhat hit and miss affair. Beware!
That said, still hopeful that someone out there will be able to help me fix this issue?
Regards
Martyn
P.S. I can be reached by any Toshiba or Microsoft technical support guru looking to make a difference and help me out.

Satellite U300 - 11y - No sound after installing win XP, SP3 rc1

Finally got my U300 working with XP, but I can't get the sound working. Appropriate drivers are installed, but nothing. The hardware was working under Vista, so this seems to be a driver problem. I think the realtek installer for somereason doesn't completely finish the configuration.
I followed advice as given on
http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=99567 but no luck.
Getting pretty nervous now, as I need sound for Skype in my business.
Thanks guys,
Tim

Hi!
I had the same problem when trying to install XP on my U300. I now regetfully deleted the files I used, which is a shame - I did not know others had similar problems.
However, if my m serves me right, the second patch suggested by Pedro (KB835221) is the correct one.
The first one is the theoretical fix for HD audio, but SP3 RC1 will not allow its installation, since it thinks the patch is older than the service pack itself.
The second patch appears to be the same thing, but modified for SP3 to accept it.
The second patch should work, and after installing it, you should be able to install the sound drivers normally.
Hope this works for you!

Satellite P35-S6112 - No sound after Windows 7 installation

I installed Windows 7 on this Satellite P35-S6112 with a Realtek AC97 sound card in it. The card and drivers are working but there is no volume. I can hear sound with a headset very faint. I have uninstalled, reinstalled, attempted update but I have the current drivers installed.
Troubleshooting has been done and system reports no issues. I am in desparate need of help here as my daughter needs this for her college as her other notebook is in the shop. Any help is greatly appreciated!!

I have checked US support page and this old notebook is not supported for WIN7 so Im glad to hear you have installed Win7 successfully.
If the sound card driver is installed properly I dont understand what do you mean with there is no volume. Can you use speakers symbol in task bar and change speakers sound level?
Click also on speakers symbol and open Playback devices. Can you set Speakers to be default device?
Which OS have you used before Win7 installation? Have you noticed the same problem?

Satellite Pro A10: No sound after upgrade to Win XP Home SP2

Hi,
Just used the recovery discs on my Sat Pro A10, no problem with sound, and then upgraded XP Home to SP2, no sound.
From what I have read elsewhere, this is a problem, and there doesn't appear to be an answer. I have spent hours searching for updated drivers to no avail.
I have also contacted Toshiba support, after much huffing, and puffing they pointed me to the following driver, 5.12.01.3542, which is the same as the one I already installed, and does not work.
Surely there must be something out there that works.

Install the newest available sound driver fro this sound chip and perform the all the Windows updates available on the Microsoft page!
Update simply the whole OS!!!

Note; possibly you have to reboot the notebook and have to connect to this site several times to get all the available patches.

Satellite M60-BK3: Cannot get sound after Vista installation

Hi,
I've installed Windows Vista Ultimate Edition (32bits) on my Toshiba Satellite M60-BK3, but I can't get any sound either the correct video settings. I've searched on the internet and it seems that this Satellite family is not supported to be upgraded to Windows Vista :S
Does anyone have any idea of how can I get these drivers in order to make my laptop work fine with Vista??
Thank you.
Rodrigo

Hi
This Satellite M60-BK3 model is not known to me. Where did you purchase it???
Try to install a hardware diagnostic tool to find out what sound chip and graphic card this notebook supports.
Then you could download the drivers from part manufacturer site.

Satellite A200-20H - No sound after Windows 7 installation

Hey Guys.
I have just bought this computer from a mate, and I have decided to install Windows 7 on the machine. Everything seemed to work brilliant, until I wanted to try and play some sound. There is no sound what so ever on the laptop, all the sliders are at max, I have tried pushing FN+ESC whit no difference. I have tried reinstalling and updating soundcard driver, no luck either.
I found a "soloution" which said I should install Value Added package, and then run an app, which should unmute the PC, no luck there either..
So I am starting to run out of ideas?
So I am hopeing one of you clever guys in here has a soloution.
If you need any info from the computer, just ask for them and i will reply whit them as soon as possible.
Big thanks in advance
Kim Jensen

Well thx for the soloution, well an attempt to a soloution as the sound is still missing.. I did a total reinstall again.. I installed the Value pack as the article told me, and i ran the sound utillity program.. Still there is no sound..
I have just tried putting some headphones in the computer, to see if sound would come out of those. That didn work either...
Any ohter good ideas? =)

1) instal the soun driver from the driver package given in toshibas support site
2) go to control panel->system->hardware tab->device manager
there you should see a monitor like icon with a yellow warning sign "PCI device"
3) try updating drivers for this device selecting from the list hihg definition audio.. it should get working, at least it did for me!

Satellite A120: No sound after Vista installation

Hi,
I've been handed a second laptop by work - so am unsure if the sound ever worked but..
1) I've installed Vista Business Edition
2) No sound from either the headphone jack or speakers
3) No errors in the Windows Device Manager
- ReInstalled the Realtek drivers from the tosh drivers site
- <still no sound>
Ran windows update
- <still no sound>
- When playing a sound file the graphic equaliser appears normally - i.e. bouncing up and down with the beat
Now out of ideas!!
Thanks in advance!

Hi buddy
I think I know what the problem could be.
The sound must be put as high as possible before install of Vista!
Furthermore you should check if the sound was not muted runig the previous OS!
This could affect the sound on the new installed Vista OS!!!
I have searched a little bit on the different Toshiba websites and in the knowledge central and found this useful article regarding the sound issues running Vista OS
[Sound Utility to Turn Mute Off |http://support.toshiba.com/support/viewContentDetail?contentId=1671893&pf=true]
I would appreciate some feedback from you
