Satellite P100-347 - Can't install new VAP

When using the Flash Cards they always "mess up" i.e. blurring and basically they are unusauable. So I went on the toshiba website and downloaded the newest Value Added Package.
However, when I start the installation it says its already installed and I should remove in add/remove programs (control panel). However, it is nowhere to be seen in the list and ive also looked into it on ccleaner and advanced unistaller pro. There's no way I can remove the old one....therefore I cant install the new one!
Any ideas?

  • Satellite L650-1M0 - CAN'T install new display driver

    Hello!
    I have Toshiba Satellite L650-1M0 and i CAN'T install new drivers to my graphic card: Mobility Radeon HD 5650 from the AMD site. Why i cannot do it? I want to install the latest display drivers because i have problems with display mode. My laptop is set on 16:9 but some programs display in 4:3.
    Please give the latest drivers on the Toshiba site or tell me what should i do to download drivers from AMD site. I have Windows 7 64x ;).

    >Why i cannot do it?
    Im really wondering you are asking something like this. It is well known that support for mobile units (notebooks) is offered by notebook manufacturer and not by hardware manufacturer.
    Due to specific notebook design and limited cooling performance graphic card cannot be upgraded as on graphic cards designed for desktops. New driver means more performance. More performance means more heat and result can be graphic card damage or switch-offs because of critical hardware temperature.

  • Satellite A660-07U - Can't install new display driver

    When I first got my laptop it wouldn't even boot out the box! So I googled the way to get it up and running and it wouldn't install Windows 7 32bit, so I installed Windows 7 64bit and that worked.
    I am one of the users who is also having their laptop freeze on them constantly. I have done the Bios update and it is still doing it. So I decided to try updating the graphics drivers with the new ones from this website, but it seems they wont install. I got the Windows 7 64bit drivers first as I have Windows 7 64bit installed in my laptop. But it says it cant find the required hardware, I figured its because my laptop is not a 3D version, should that even matter?
    So I then tried the 32bit drivers and it says im using wrong system os for those drivers.
    So how about some drivers I can use?

    Hello
    > it didn't work out the box
    Why it didnt work? What problems you had exactly?
    > The X64 drivers for download will NOT work on my A660, says something about not the right hardware (which is where I got the 3D idea from)
    Well, in my opinion it has nothing to do with 3D support. If you can find new driver updates for Satellite A660 they should work because they are tested by Toshiba.
    As far as I know there is no A660 model with 3D support, thats only available on A665.
    Fact is that 32bit drivers never work on 64bit operating systems. So just forget this point.
    Satellite A660/07U seems to be an Australian model and belongs to PSAW3A series. On the Australian page there is only one display driver available for Windows 7 64bit
    What you can try is the display driver from European page where you can find a similar model PSAW3E:
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com
    On this page I could found two driver version: 260.51 and 189.58. As far as I know latter one works properly without freeze.
    > You could have just said you don't know the answer or are you always this condescending?
    You want some help or not? ;)
    I mean I also didnt know that you are still use the Windows 7 installation from Toshiba, you only wrote about new Windows 7 installation.
    Anyway, it was simple misunderstanding.

  • Re: Satellite P500-12F - Can't install new nVidia display driver

    Good evening,
    I am sorry for a stupid question, but I just do not know what to do. I have Satellite P500-12F.
    I wanted to download newer graphics drivers for the NVidia card, so I went to the NVidia website and downloaded a new driver, which is dated back to December 2009, instead of mine, which is of July 2009 However, when I try to install it, the system says that theya are no hardware which is compatible with the new driver.
    Could you tell me, what am I doing wrong? I could use any guidance as well. Thank you very much!

    I have deleted the pre-installed graphic driver, and tried to replace it with a newer driver from the NVidia site. The installation was not successful, and now, thanks to You, I know why. I have already went to the Toshiba site and downloaded the driver from HERE .
    I have installed it, and everything goes well, as it used to be. Could You tell me, is the driver which I have installed from the Toshiba site the newest one? And how often do they update this kind of laptop drivers?
    Thank You all for Your help, it is really valuable for me! :)

  • Satellite P100-347: Blue Leds - Can they be disabled/switched off?

    I have read several topics in the forum about the P100 Harman/Kardon Speaker Blue LEDs/lights. None have expressed a final answer about how to switch off the LEDs.
    I was wondering if any new update on this issue has occured. The last forum post about it was in February. Is it possible to switch off these annoying lights in the newer Satellite models? I would be willing to disconnect the leads if its an easy job.
    My laptop is the Satellite P100-347 (SPA6E)
    Thanks a lot

    Hi Dan
    Did you use the forum Advanced search???
    I dont think so!!!
    I used it and found several threads about this theme.
    I searched in the Satellite P section for blue light and find these postings:

  • Instant shutdown and reboot on Satellite P100-347

    My satellite P100-347 keeps shutting down instantly then restarting. Any solutions becuase its still new and very expensive for a replacement.

    Hi there,
    it seems your machine is overheating and then it makes a shutdown because of hardware security reasons.
    You said it happened when playing NFS carbon, this is a good sign for a heat problem of cpu/vga.
    I suggest you to clean your fan and your cooling system, because when its clobbed with dust the system can not be properly cooled and it has to shutdown to prevent severe damage to your precious hardware. Just take a can with compressed air and clean your cooling system (but be gently, otherwise you will damage the fan which transport the air which is heated from cpu/vga)
    Just a question: which drivers are installed for your vga? Do you have the original toshiba display drivers? If not, then the problem is self explaining because the timings of the original drivers from nvidia/ati are not suitable for mobile computers.

  • Satellite P100-347: Blue screen appears on start up - unable to boot volume

    Recently I left my 2 younger brothers playing NFS Carbon on my satellite P100-347, preinstalled with media centre 2005 edition, and now it fails to startup.
    During the startup process eventually a blue screen is displayed for about a second and then it shutsdown (I manged to make out the words "unable to boot volume" from the blue screen).
    I tried booting with an XP media centre DVD but it only gives me an option of reinstalling the OS with a price of losing all my very important data. Normally I would have recovered the system but I don't want to lose my data.
    Is there anything i can do other than taking it to a technician?

    Hi
    Well, mostly the BSOD appears due to a hardware problem or serious software issue.
    In your case the software problem is possible
    Unfortunately, I think the new OS installation is the best way to get the notebook running correctly.
    Now you want to know how to save the data and files well, I think you should remove the HDD from notebook and should try to connect the 2.5 HDD via external USB controller to another computer. Then you could save the files on the other HDD
    I think, now you know that the regular backups are important and necessary!!!!

  • DVD drive does not burn/erase rewritables - Satellite P100-347

    Hello,
    I have purchased a Toshiba Satellite p100-347 PSPA6E laptop. It has a DVD Burner with model number: HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GMA-4082N (firmware pt06). It has capabilities to burn all types of dvds (please see example using dvdino: http://tinyurl.com/2hbpqv ).
    However, i cannot rewrite on my Maxell dvd+rw (1.4x speed) dvd. everytime i go to a software application to erase a dvd i've written on, it says format not recognised. For example Nero says "This disc is not rewritable and therefore cannot be erased. Please insert a rewritable disc".
    The disc is rewritable because it says on the cover and also it burns on my friends rewritable dvd burner :(
    Please can someone help :( i am really stuck and it would be much apreciated
    Jas

    Hello all,
    thank you for your replies. Still no luck wth DLA :(. i installed DLA and i get the message 'write-once media such as CD-R or DVD-R is not supported by DLA' even though the dvd is a MAXELL Dvd+RW.
    Now here is the strange part. I just borrowed a friends dvd external rewriter which burns the maxell dvd i have been using... it seems like that does not work on my laptop either now and works fine on my friends computer. perhaps it is not the dvd burner that is the problem but some setting on my pc. can someone please help :(.

  • Satellite P100-347 - nVidia drivers up to date?

    Can Toshiba support please fix some up to date vista drivers for:
    Satellite P100-347...(pspa6e)
    this should be up to date at Toshiba`s homepage, because the drivers on
    nvidia.com don`t work on my Toshiba notebook....
    Thnx

    It is well known that drivers downloaded from graphic card manufacturers support pages cannot be installed on mobile computers. Every notebook manufacturer must be sure that display driver will work well on specific notebook model and will not force graphic card to run on maximum level.
    I hope you can understand why notebook manufacturers do this.
    Anyway you can just hope that your message will be read by Toshiba support department. ;)

  • How to find exact motherboard model for Satellite P100-347?

    Hello,
    I am hoping someone could help me. I am looking for a new motherboard for my toshiba laptop as it needs replaced.
    I own a pspa6e-03302cen Satellite P100-347 laptop and have not been able to find this board online anywhere. Although I have found two suppliers of many p100 motherboards they use alternate model numbers in which I cannot find anywhere in my documentation or on the actual computer. The model numbers they use are something like A000008350 or a number starting with k. I am pretty sure the supplier i have found has the motherboard i would need but i would need a list of all the alternate part numbers for my laptop or someway of finding the exact numbers. Any help on this matter is appreciated..
    Thanks

    To be honest I really do not believe someone here can offer you such info. As you know this info is for internal use and you can try to get this info from authorized service provider in your country. Sorry but I do not see better solution, except to wait here and hope someone can help.
    Good luck!

  • On my Satellite P100-347 cooling fan runs all the time

    Hi,
    I think I might have a problem with fan on my Satellite P100-347. It seems to be continually working at all times and is a lot louder than when I purchased the computer. Initially it used to just switch off and on when required, I think this might now be wrong.
    Please help.

    Hi Beata
    I agree with Sanremo suggestions; its not known to me how old your notebook is but from time to time its necessary to clean the cooling fans. The dust and debris inside the notebook could prevent the cooling modules from properly working!
    The properly fresh air circulation is also very important. Be sure that there is enough free space around the notebook. Do not use the notebook on the knees or in the bed. In such case the notebook cannot be cooled in the right way and the high temperature can damage some parts like GPU on the board.
    But if you think there is an serious hardware problem you should contact the authorized service provider in your country.
    Good luck and greetings to Poland ;)

  • Satellite P100-347 - problem with shutdown during gameplay

    i have a problem with my Satellite P100-347(pspa6e)
    After about 10 minutes playtime with games like battlefield 2, the SIMS2 and so on.. my pc shuts down...
    I suspected it was shutting down because of high gpu or cpu temp...
    i could feel that my notebook was hot, but after playing for a while its normal...
    so i installed HWmonitor to check my gpu,cpu and hdd temp...
    this is what i shows:
    THRM: 61.C - 141.F
    CPU: core0\1 - both 64.C - 147.F
    GPU: runs at stable 85 - 90.C
    this at normal use...not games....
    HDD: 39.C
    Something has to be wrong!! gpu temp has to be too high?!?
    i have tried a fresh OS install....
    thnx for all answers and help!

    Hello
    I agree with Akuma. The fact is that suddenly shutdowns are mostly caused by too high temperature and shutdown is actually reaction for ??hardware protection??.
    So what you should do is to clean up the cooling grill.
    There is just one problem: if this should be done properly the notebook must be disassembled. So the question is how you want to do this?
    At the moment, try to place your notebook on higher position, maybe on 4 books to make more distance between the notebook and the desk. I just hope the air circulation will be better and you will be able to play a little bit longer. Please test it and let us know what will happen.

  • Satellite X200-245 can i install a second HDD

    on satellite X200-245 : can i install a second hard drive ?
    is it possible ?
    There is a place for it but no sata connection on the mother board where can i find this connector

    No you cannot install the second HDD because there is no HDD connector which would allows to connect the HDD to the mobo.
    And No, its not possible to upgrade the mobo with such connector.
    The X200 has the two HDD bays because some X200 support 2 HDDs and some dont support it.
    Your X200 doesnt support 2 HDD

  • How can I install new windows on NB200-10z without a CD drive?

    Hi,
    I have a mini laptop "Toshiba nb200-10z" and it doesnt startup anymore.
    I would like to do a recovery, but it also doesnt work.
    I know there is a shortcut like press the 0 button when the laptop is starting up.
    With this shortcut you can start the recovery to reset the software.
    But when I press the 0 button it gives me an error.
    So I think the recovery drive/partition is lost.
    How can I install new windows on this minilaptop without a CD drive?

    I have found a much easier way to install Windows 7 from a USB Flash drive. Unlike other methods where you have to write complicated commands, this method can be completed even by those who have very little computer background.
    The whole process takes only two steps, run UNetbootin, load the Windows 7 ISO file, and finally restart your computer.
    Before you begin, you will require the following:
    USB Flash Drive (4GB minimum)
    Windows 7 ISO Image file
    UNetbootin
    Note: If UNetbootin doesnt work, try out the Microsofts official tool called Windows 7 USB/DVD Tool.
    Now insert the USB drive, run UNetbootin, and select Disk Image as ISO. Browse your local drive for Windows 7 ISO that you downloaded and click Open. Now Select Type as USB and choose the drive. Once done, it will look like a bit similar to the screenshot shown below.
    Click OK and it will begin extracting all installation files to the USB drive. The whole process will take some time (10-15 minutes), so have patience.
    Once the installation is complete, reboot your computer. Now while your system is starting up press the appropriate button (usually F1, F2, F12, ESC, Backspace, or Escape) to bring up Bios Boot Menu.
    Change the startup order to boot USB by default, usually you will have to press F6 to move the selected USB device on top. Once done, save changes and restart the system.
