Satellite Pro 4330: Error code IDE #1 error

Hello
I got old satellite pro 4330 but I got the error code IDE #1 Error, what can I do? I need help please!
Thanx

Hi!
Yes, Markus77 is on the right track.
But, I would simply guess the CD-ROM drive is somehow out-of-order or broken, and that's why the Laptop has been available (hopefully not for sale for too many bucks ...)
One simple repair trial could be to open the Laptop and take the CD drive out of its bay and cable connector, clean them and place back carefully, and if lucky enough, it may wake-up for the BIOS, or maybe not ...
Best regards,
Pete V.

Satellite Pro A300D - Error message while watching DVDs

Hi There
I have a problem with my satellite Pro A300-140 running Vista 32-bit OS
Every time I try and watch a DVD I get an error message " Unable to output the video to an external device. Please check the external output setting after ending the application "-I am not trying to connect to anything - I just want to watch a movie !
Any ideas - I did read this was a known problem but I can't re-find the information ?
Thanks

Hi
You should try the new Realtek sound driver from the Realtek page:
http://www.realtek.com.tw/
Furthermore I recommend updating the Toshiba DVD player. It's placed on Toshiba European driver page.
Just one tip; Im using the VLC player. Its free software and very nice
It plays almost all video and audio formats google for VLC player!

DVD Drive not working Satellite Pro A100 - error Code 37

Hi
Anyone help on this?
I have an A-100 and the DVD drive has stopped working in XP. I've checked device manager and XP see's the drive but returns this error 'Windows cannot initialize the device driver for this hardware. (Code 37)'
I've also noticed that ASAPI.sys is not running in task manager.
I'm guessing this has got something to do with the problem.
I've tried reinstalling device drivers but this has made no difference. Any suggestions?

Hi
The error code 37 means the driver returned failure from its DriverEntry routine.
You could try to remove the driver from the device manager and after new reboot the OS should recognize the device drive and initialize the driver again.
If this does not help try this procedure:
Run REGEDIT and open up the following folders:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
-> SYSTEM
-> CurrentControlSet
-> Control
->Class
{4D36E965-E325 -11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
After clicking on {4D36E965-E325 -11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} you should see two settings on the right-hand side:
"Upperfilters"
"Lowerfilters"
Click on each of them, press DELETE and click YES.
Then reboot the notebook and check if it was useful.

Satellite Pro L - Error message when I try to play a music CD

When I try to play a music CD I get this error message >
+"The version of this file is not comparable with the version of Windows you're running. Check+
+your computer's systems information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit)+
+version of the program, and then contact the software publisher."+
It plays on my old XP 32 bit desktop but will not play on the Windows 7 64 bit laptop.
The CD is not a commercially made one but it is of importance to me.
Any ideas please?
Pete

When the CD is loaded and I go to play it via computer it shows a dead icon and it is not recognised.
Usually the icon shows details of the disc to be played but in this case it doesnt, when I right click to choose a player there are none available to choose from.

Satellite Pro A300 - error message box: Pwdbank - Abstract Error

Pro A300 notebook continually popped up error message box: Pwdbank - Abstract Error. Must kill pwdbank process to stop it.
Does anyone know what's the problem and how to fix it?
Thanks.

As far as I know the pwdbank.exe is a part of TrueSuite.
If you dont use fingerprint or this tool you can disable the automatic loading of this file.
Otherwise if you need this you should check the Toshiba website for an update:

Satellite Pro L300 - Error when installing Intel Storage Manager

I have downloaded all the drivers. One of them will not install for me. "Intel IMSM Driver SATA V8.0.0.1039 Windows XP 21.12 MB" for PSLB9A-02H002. It gives me an error "This comp does not meet the minimum requirments for installing the software".
Any solution for this. Thanks. Regards.

Thanks for the respond. I should start from the beginning. I am a bit tired already and thinking of installing vista which I don't want to do.
This is a laptop Satelite Pro L300, mod PSLB9A-02H002. I started installing XP on it by changing the BIOS to compability mode otherwise it would not read the XP disk. Installed XP with no problem wiping the hidden partition (if it was there). I downloaded all the drivers from this site for the correct model. The problem starts there. Laptop is freezing every so often, sometime it will boot into an empty screen etc. Just few moments ago a message came up:
"The device driver for the 'Intel(R), Wireless WiFi Link 5100' device is preventing the machine from entering standby. Please close all applications and try again. If the problem persists, you may need to update thid driver."
In addition I dont have an access to floppy ext. drive to follow the procedure mentioned above, I dont even know if this can be done after XP is installed.
The BIOS setting has to stay in "compatibility" option otherwise if its on "AHCI" it will not boot.
I would love to make it work with XP but it may not be possible. Any further help would be greatly appreciated.

Satellite Pro A10: Error loading drivers and other things

hi.
I have just bought a spare A10 from ebay. I already have an A10 and its the business. On Powering up the new A10, I have a message bubble from microsoft saying that it was unable to load the drivers for the cd recording software, please update the drivers. If I click on the bubble it tells me to update real player, roxio or some other recording software.
As I haven't put any on and there was none on there when bought. Its not broken, Its just annoying. Also when I right click anywhere on the desktop, in the coloum that appears, i get a link to a adult site, how can i get rid of this?
I would like to thank you for taking the time to read this and would be grateful if you could help.
Jack.

Hi Jack,
I suggest you check what is actually being started when you boot your new A10 using MSCONFIG. This will then let you stop those tasks which you do not want from being started up and should prevent your error message being displayed.
I also suggest you download and install a copy of AdAware from http://www.lavasoft.com (and possibly also SpyBot from http://www.spybot.info/en/download/index.html ) and do a full check of your new A10 to remove any nasties that may be lurking there.
It sounds as if the previous owner has removed some of the software that they had installed but have not fully cleaned up afterwards.
Finally, I personally use a freeware utility call CCleaner from http://www.ccleaner.com/ which is excellent at removing bits and pieces left over on my notebook. It needs to be treated with some caution because it is quite a powerful utility but it is very quick and thorough.
regards,

Satellite Pro P100 - ERROR: Setenv.ini file D:\Setenv.ini or X:\Tools\Seten

My laptop was booting up and i cancelled the boot by pressing holding the reset button as i was popping out. When i got back, the laptop would not boot as it kept on restarting when the windows xp screen showed up. So i decided to use the recovery disc but it would not re-install XP.
The message display is RECOUNPACK ERROR: The system cannot find the path specified. (3) -- HDD not ready?
Pls can you help, I'm quite good with computers but never encountered this problem.

Hi
To be honest this is a first time that Im reading about such issue
But I assume that your HDD and partitions are affected
I think the HDD should be formatted before using the recovery disk.
Of course the recovery disk should format the HDD too but I think this is a special case where the installation has not been finished and this might affect the new installation using recovery disk
Maybe you could use another disks like Win XP or Linux which could help you to format the HDD again and to erase all partitions from HDD.

Satellite Pro P300: Error after BT stack 8.00.02 installation WIN 7 32bit

I Upgraded my Satelite Pro P300 from Vista to Win7 Pro 32-bit.
The existing drivers and programs had (compatibility) issues with Win 7 whitch was indicated when installing Win 7 Pro 32bit.
So I download and instal this newest stack.
In the hardware devices there are 3 BT ports. But the software, (settings, communcations, etc) does not start..
by example: BtAssist.exe - runtime failure (dutch: toepassingsfout), Cannot correctly start this applicaton (0xc00000be, click Ok to exit).
Anyone any Ideas?
Every thing worked fine before installen Win 7.
Thanks already
Eric

Hi
Did you make a clean Win 7 installation or did you upgrade the Vista to Win 7?
I recommend a clean Win 7 installation. This is better because an upgrade from Vista to Win 7 could leave some junk on the HDD and some Vista tools/drivers would not be fully compatible with the Win 7 OS.
So make a clean Win 7 installation and then download and install the newest BT stack from this page:

Good luck

Satellite Pro M30 error in IEEE1394

Hello...
I think i have a problem whit the driver of IEEE1394
I can't find the drive at any part, and the cd of the drivers don't have that driver i don't no how resolve it, and the re-installation of the S.O. don't solve me the problem...
Anu trick?
Tank's a lot

Hi,
do you have the Toshiba OEM OS runing (Toshiba Recovery CD) or did you setup a own OS (Full XP version)?
Also it would nice to know if the IEEE1394 port worked in the past or as the case may be directly after bought the notebook?
Did you checked the the IEEE1394 entry at the Device Manager? Try to reinstall the driver (I think it's a windows standard driver)!
Bye sammy

IDE #1 Error on Satellite Pro A10

Hi, My Satellite Pro A10 laptop displays IDE #1 Error everytime I attempt to put it on. That message is all I get, although it is displayed for a short time- the laptop always comes back to that message, it attempts to load the screen just go's blanbk and then that message comes up everytime! I was wondering if anyone could explain what this means and how do i fix it?
thank you
david

Hi
This is very strange that this error message appears and you have not changed the drive.
Did you try to 'flash' the drive or to install any firmware or update the BIOS?
I ask it because I can't believe that this error message appears without any reasons.
Like Jack and Silas say, this error appears because of no compatibility of the drive.
The unit was delivered with compatible drive and should works. I assume the BIOS cannot recognize the drive at this time because it's dead.
In my opinion you have to replace the drive. (try to check it it's possibel to install/to boot Toshiba recovery CD)
Ps: Just for info: I have read in the net that sometimes it's possible to flash the drive with any illegal software to change the master/slave settings but this is not advisable. But I have never tried it.
I have also read in the forum that if this error message appears every time and it's not possible to use the drive and the BIOS cannot recognize this device so the connection of pin 45 and 47 could solve this issue sometimes.

Hi
>I tried to repair the Winsock using Microsofts articles with no luck
I assume you are meaning this MS knowledge base article:
[How to determine and to recover from Winsock2 corruption in Windows Server 2003, in Windows XP, and in Windows Vista|http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811259]
Well, I searched a little bit around and found out that the solution described on 811259 article doesnt help in all cases
So searched on 3rd party website and someone has suggested to try this advice.
Its also from Microsoft:
*[How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) in Windows XP|http://support.microsoft.com/kb/299357 ]*
So check it out maybe it helps
If not, then you might be forced to reinstall your OS because the repair option is not included in the Toshiba recovery CD ;(

Satellite Pro A210 DVD Drive not working - error code 39

Hi All
My Satellite Pro A210 dvd drive is not loading.
When I looked into it it showed an error code 39.
I tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it but it's still not working.
Any ideas?

Hi
From my knowledge the error message 39 appears if the CD/DVD drive is not visible in the My Computer.
You can try this workaround:
Go to device manager and delete the CD/DVD drive from the device list.
Then go to registry (regedit) and remove the upper and lower filters from the key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\ Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
Then reboot the unit and test it again
I think this should help!

Satellite Pro A10 - IDE 1# Error on boot up

HI there, i have a Satellite pro A10 and all has been working fine for the last few years until now.
A few days ago i started getting an error reading cd's / dvd's invalid disc format yet the discs work fine on every other pc.
Today i am getting IDE#1 error on boot up... the laptop is still standard from when i got it off the shelf. thinking the drive may have died due to wear and tear i replaced the drive with a working drive and i still get the same error. I have removed the ODD altogether and its still coming up.
I have also updated the bios from usb floppy which was successful. and the best part of all this. the dvd rom that came with the laptop works fine in my other tosh a10!!!!!!
Anyone got any ideas. i don really want to replace the main board if i can help it. this is the only issue with the laptop.
thx in advance people.

Hello James
IDE 1# Error is typical when ODD is not accepted by the system. The reason for that can be defective drive or usage of non-compatible drives. The fact is that every drive can not be used with every notebook model because of different pin assignment.
In your case it is really strange that drive work on other A10 but not on this one. Because of that I presume there is maybe some problem with connectors. I am afraid there is not much to do. You can try to check them and see if they are clean and not oxidized.
Sorry but we can only speculate what the problem can be but, like you know, only intensive test can give you more answers.
Good luck and pleas let us know if you will find out what the problem is.
