Satellite P200 1EE - can this output to 1080p via HDMI?

HI
My first post on this forum.
I recently bought this notebook and have connected it to my LCD TV at home. However, I can't seem to get 1080p via HDMI only 1080i (my TV is capable of accepting 1080p through HDMI). Anyone know if this is possible? (I have updated the latest display drivers from Toshiba).
Also whilst watching movies, I am noticing a lot of grain/noise on the notebook screen. Is this normal or is it a defect? I was watching Transformers HD DVD last night and could see loads of noise not only during dark scenes but generally throughout the film.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Shak.

Hi Shak.
It helps that you've ensured your LCD tv supports 1080p. For this resolution you have to check in your graphic card driver catalyst a needed option. Open that control center and look for dvi settings and uncheck the "reduce dvi frequenzy on high resolution displays" option. 1080p should work now.
For the grainy/noisy thing with the Transformers HD-DVD. I don't think it is a defect or something like that. Just put in another movie and see if the picture quality is better or not. Quality differs from movie to movie.
Check it out and give me a quick answer if it worked.
Regards,
Joey

Satellite P200-1EE - Can I get a Blu-Ray drive for it?

At last, Toshiba have joined the BDA!!!!!!
Does any one know if or when they will release a Blu-Ray drive to replace the HD-DVD drives in a P200-1EE?
I know this post may be little premature but I have felt betrayed ever since buying the laptop and 3 weeks later Toshiba dropping the HD-DVD format.

Hi!
I dont know when Toshiba will release a Bluray drive that you can buy to exchange it with your HD-DVD drive.
But maybe a drive from another manufacture will also work on your notebook. In your case I would go to the nearest computer shop and ask for such a drive. Maybe you can test it in the shop if it works because not all drives are compatible with all notebooks (e. g. pin assignment).
Good luck!

Satellite P200-1EE Can I install a 2nd hard disk in the spare bay?

First of all, hi everyone!
I have the above model laptop, and it has a spare disk bay. There are pin connectors at one end, but it does not seem like the drive will fit. It's like there is a component missing - like the connector slot housing for the 1st drive. I have bought a 500GB drive, and have tried seeing whether it would fit. The 1st drive has a metal caddy attached, and that did not work either.
Is it possible to fit a 2nd drive to this model? If so, what would I need to do it?
Thanks!
Andy

Hi
If you have a connector in second HDD bay you can add a second HDD. But you will need such a metal caddy as on the first HDD. Therefore you can contact an authorized service provider because you can get all spare parts from them.
On the Toshiba website is a list of all ASPs, check this!!!

Satellite P200-1EE - Can't get camera to start

After plunging through the forums I notice a lot of people have been having problems with their built in web cams.
Before the camera was just moody, turning on and off stating other applications had locked usage (when they werent even on, not even in background tasks) but it stopped working.
I managed to uninstall the camera driver and download the Vista version of the website. The software seems to have installed fine but when you start the software it says "turn camera on" and even by pressing the hot keys I cant get the camera to start, just the software with a grey screen.
I checked device manager and its no use.
Help please! I dont want to have to go out and buy a new camera.

Hi!
I have two Toshiba laptops and no problems with the webcam. Both webcams work fine and without problems.
Did you download the driver from the Toshiba website?

Maybe a BIOS could also solve the problem.
Have you installed the notebook with the Toshiba recovery disk or Microsoft disk?
Bye

Satellite P200-1EE - Hard disk not found if I try to install XP

Hi and I have a problem.
I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite P200-1EE series laptop running (of all things) Vista and nothing but problems ever since so im trying to install XP professional and overwrite Vista.
But whenever I try to install it says "hard disk not found..... unable to access"
I've heard of problems like this before something like a "software block protocol"
Any suggestions?

Hi!
Why you dont search in the forum before you start a new topic?
I mean you will hundreds of threads about this issue here in the forum and you will find the solution of your problem in few minutes.
Well, the reason for this is because you need the SATA drivers before you can install Windows XP. As far as I know your notebook is equipped with an Intel chipset and so you need the Intel Storage Manager. You can integrate the drivers using an external FDD or nLite [www.nliteos.com]. Furthermore this document could be useful for you:

Does Satellite P200-1EE has BT built-in?

This is going to sound like a really stupid question ( coming from someone who used to work in the I.T. industry ) ....
I have seen a lot of mention about '*Bluetooth*' functionality, but *how do i know for certain if my 'lappy' has it*, _*or*_ better still *if it has ever been setup* for it
( I have a *Satellite P200-1EE* - if that makes any difference ) ??

im in I.T is well. unfortunately on the box it shows the blutooth sign... it doesnt have bluetooth capabilities. if you need bluetooth you can get attachable usb sticks which come with the software required to make your computer bluetooth accessable. good luck.

Satellite P200-10O: Can't send emails using Vista Windows Mail

Can any one help.
I have a Satellite P200-10O, with Vista installed. In Win Mail i have set up my email accounts as normal.
When i open Win Mail i can click send and receive and it searches for new messages, this can be repeated as often as you like. However when i create a new message and click send it stops working. The message goes into the outbox, if i open it in the outbox and click send, nothing happens, after a while of trying every thing freezes up. If i then close the program and re open it will send the message but then sometimes the send and receive doesn't work until you close and re open. Also the message counters do not up date.
I have tried everything i can think of, Vista forum, ISP, Toshiba. So far no joy although i will be getting back in touch with Toshiba again. Message is set to send immediatley.
No virus or firewall is being used.
Cheers

Hi buddy,
why are you making yourself such problems?? Why dont you use Mozilla Thunderbird which is faster, reliable and has better functions then this Vista Mail thingy??
I use Thunderbird now for some years and I love it. Its better than outlook and has so many functions which make the work a lot easier.
If I were you I would check the following link a thinkabout:

Sound and graphics drivers for Satellite P200-1EE and Windows XP

Hello all,
I just bought a new Sattelite P200-1EE. I had it downgraded to Windows XP Service Pack 2. from Vista.
I have two problems:
1. I cannot find the graphics driver for the ATI Radeon Mobility HD2600 for Windows XP. When I hit the link,
I get an "could not connect to remote server".
2. I cannot get the sound driver to work. In fact, I can't even see the sound card. Ishel there something else I need to install?
Thanks for any help

Regarding the point;
1) It looks like a driver server issue possibly the guys maintain the server. I would recommend checking this in next few days.
2) First of all you have to update the XP to the latest state. All available MS hotfixes for XP must be installed. Very important are these patches; KB888111 and KB835221. You have to install these patches before the sound driver installation.
Best regards

Can audio output be simultaneous from HDMI and headphone jack?

I need to be able to output both hdmi and analog audio out of the headphone jack at the same time. Can this be done? Currently, it makes me choose one or the other and won't let me choose both.

As is no. There are some audio rerouting apps out there that could perhaps help, but I am not versed in using them.
Look into AU Lab and JackOSX.

How to get sound output to TV via HDMI on my Equium

I've connected to TV via HDMI to view downloaded BBC content.
How can I get the sound?

Hi Misterg,
Normally if your notebook connect to TV the sound will automatically switched to TV as the picture. If I connect the notebook to TV I always have sound without changing some settings.
If not you have to set the Digital output device as default device. I have made a screenshot of this:

K9AGM2-FIH 1080p via HDMI

Hello,
I have baught the K9AGM2-FIH (MS-7237 Version 1.0) to connect it via HDMI to my Samsug LE37M86BD Both are supporting 1080p.
When I choose at catalyst controlcenter 1920x1080p (progressive mode) the resulition is only 1920x1080i (interlaced mode). I recognize it at the onscreen display of the TV and the flickering when I'm scrolling and on menue soft appearance.
How do I get the progressive mode enabled!
Thanks
Oliver
PS: 760p is working at progressive mode.
PS2: I have tried the CCC from the deliverd CD, from the MSI Hompage and the most recent (31.5.07) from ATI. Every time the same result interlaced mode only.

Wirruna,
It will be jumpy because the resolution is too high. Your using integrated VGA don't forget.
this is cleary a driver issue
did the default windows driver work at 1920x1080?
what about posting a support request at http://ati.com/support
http://support.ati.com/ics/support/KBList.asp?folderID=10578
AMD 690G series clearly says "Supports a maximum resolution of 2048x1536 @ 32bpp"
meybe try PowerStrip, get that to 1920x1080 @ 50hz

Satellite P200-1EE: HD-DVD issue: Unable to output video to external device

I know this subject has been brought up before but after searching the web on and off for months now I still can't find a solution that works for me.
The problem occurs when trying to use the Toshiba HD-DVD Player to play HD-DVD discs. The program starts but after reading the disc it displays the message +"Unable to output the video to an external device. Please check the external output setting after ending the application."+ and will not play the movie. I'm not sure when this problem first started happening as I went a couple of months without using the HD-DVD feature but I know my laptop was capable of playing the DVD's on both the laptop's display and through the HDMI cable when I first got it just under a year ago.
Toshiba's website mentions this problem and suggests updating the Realtek Audio drivers but I've updated several times now and there has been no change. I've also updated the HD-DVD Player software, also to no avail. The problem is the same regardless of how I try to output the video and occurs on any HD-DVD disc.
I've read that PowerDVD may be a better choice for playing HD-DVD's but I'm rather reluctant to spend the money when it might not work so unless someone can guarantee this as a solution I don't think I'll be trying it.
If anyone could suggest a solution that I haven't yet tried I'd be very grateful.

>The program starts but after reading the disc it displays the message "Unable to output the video to an external device. Please check the external output setting after ending the application." and will not play the movie.
Today is your lucky day mate ;) I found a solution!
Here in this thread you can find a link to a Toshiba doc which describes what is going wrong and what you have to do to solve this annoying issue;

HD-DVD won't play on Satellite P200-123 Unable to output to external device

Hi,
I bought a P200-123 yesterday. One of the first things I tried after the Vista installation initially completed was running an HD-DVD. I know the disc is fine as it works in my Xbox 360. Unfortunately, it didn't work with the supplied HD-DVD player software - the play icon lights up and then I get this error message:
"Unable to output the video to an external device. Please switch your display device by pressing the Fn + F5 keys after ending the application."
I don't have an external display connected to the laptop. I tried different discs but all gave me the same error. I then carried on updating drivers and installing a bunch of Windows updates. I repeatedly tried the HD-DVD player throughout the countless updates and reboots but I always get the same error. Out of frustration I bought PowerDVD Ultra. That plays the movie for about one second before giving me an error:
"Cannot initialize secure display session - (Error Code = 0122)"
The error dialog goes on to say that the error could be caused by an incompatible graphics driver or beccause I'm using a dual-monitor setup. The reference to dual monitors is common to each player application so I'm wondering if the problem is in that area. I haven't connected a secondary display but when I look at the standard Windows display properties dialog or the ATI Catalyst control center app I can see a disabled secondary display. I'm assuming that's normal - there's no obvious way to remove the disabled secondary display.
Can anyone help me get HD-DVD playback working?
Thanks,
Ian

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, I downloaded that and tried it yesterday but it didn't help :-(
I noticed that a couple of other unrelated things stopped working after the last batch of Windows and Toshiba updates - for example, the Event Viewer snapin wouldn't load and the built-in .NET Framework 2.0 installation appeared to be corrupt until I ran sfc to repair it. I was getting pretty sick of the whole thing so I took the drastic step of nuking the C: drive and installing Vista Ultimate from my own retail DVD.
One hour later I have a working Vista Ultimate installation and, interestingly, I installed the Toshiba HD-DVD player and it now works!!!
It was a pretty drastic method to get it working - and not everyone is going to have a retail copy of Vista just lying around - but at the moment everything looks good. I still don't understand the original root cause (or which software update messed up Event Viewer/.NET Framework) but I guess it's kind of a solution...

Satellite P200-1EE not able to wacht videos in fullscreen on youtube

Hi guys,
Im confused as i have a brand new p200-iee for xmas and try to watch a video on youtube or for example bbci player but i either get just a black screen with sound or black and white diagonal screen with sound, i have dropped my resolution down from 1440x900 through all settings but no help?
DVD's play full screen fine, and i have d/l the newest flash player as i think this is the common link between sites
any help muchly appreciated!!!!
cheers
will

I do agree with it most likely to be a software issue, although when you watch vids from youtube are you straming them or do you download them. I can stream them in its small size but when i want the fullscreen option that's where this problem occurs.
This is the same for the bbc site, i have the latest flash player installed so my next step is codecs, but i would have thought u would need them for streaming??

Satellite P200-1EE - is the Data (E:) drive physically seperate from C:?

Want to format and re-install everything on the laptop as it's playing up during operation. However need to confirm if the drives are actually seperate and not virtual, so I know to backup on an external drive instead of losing everything!
Thanks for your advice people!

I agree with Barrie. When you use the Toshiba recovery disk, the HDD will be formatted and you will lose your data.
If you use a Microsoft Disk, you can choose on which partition the OS (operating system) should be installed. So must not backup your data.
By the way, I save my data additional on an external HDD.
