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 A300-1GT - Error message when starting webcam

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300-1GT. The problem is that the camera does not work. When I start software it writes that I should restart camera or computer. I'm having Windows 7 and I serched the internet for solutions but I find just a discusions with the same problem without solutions.
    Sory for may bad English.

    Hi
    The cam is not listed in device manager; neither as unknown device nor as USB device?
    Well, I read here in the forum that internal webcam is connected to the USB controller on the motherboard and sometimes the connection is loose and therefore the cam cannot be recognized by system.
    I think in such case the notebook needs to be disassembled and the connection should be checked. But this seems to be a job for technicians

  • Satellite Pro A300D - Error message while watching DVDs

    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 ?

    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!

  • Satellite Pro A300 PSAGDE re-booting when plugged in

    I have had this laptop put away for a while as I couldn't work through this problem, but I'm having another try.
    The laptop is a Satellite Pro A300 PSAGDE.
    The problem I am haiving is that the laptop would re-boot whenever I connect the PSU, but not when using a live CD (Ubuntu).
    I would like to try and flash a replacement BIOS to see if that will solve the problem.
    Unfortunately the software needed to flash the BIOS requires the laptop to be plugged in.
    Is there any way around this problem?
    Can I fool the software into thinking it is plugged in?
    Is there a way I can revert/repair the BIOS in any other way as obviously the problem hasn't always been there.
    Thanks

    So once again: notebook runs fine using battery power but reboot always (in the loop????) when AC adaptor is connected. But using Live CD the notebook runs ok even if the AC adaptor is connected.
    Right???
    >> I think it may be a BIOS issue because the laptop will run without an issue when booting a live cd, even when it is plugged in.
    If the unit runs ok using Live CD, then this means that this cannot be BIOS issue because BIOS does not depend on installed system.
    Therefore in my opinion its definitely not a BIOS problem.
    I think you should firstly disable the automatic reboot when an system crashes Win 7 is configured to restart immediately when a BSOD happens and this happens too fast to see the error I think you mean this by automatic reboot
    Disable this by following way:
    1)Control Panel -> System & Security -> System -> click the Advanced system settings
    2)Locate the Startup and Recovery section near the bottom of the window and click Settings button.
    3)In the Startup and Recovery window, uncheck the check box next to Automatically restart.
    4)Now click OK and restart the unit
    In my opinion the system crashed and therefore the notebook reboots

  • Satellite Pro A300: cam picture appears which has been taken 6 months ago

    Hello everybody,
    I have a problem with my Camera Assistant Software. I'm using a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300.
    I used once my camera for taking pictures and now after 6 moths I wanted to take a picture again, but it appears the last picture taken 6 months ago. I uninstalled and than reinstalled the software and the same problem occurs. I tried to change some of the settings and this didn't help too.
    I would be very thankful, if someone could help me!!!

    Hey Dr. Lamp,
    I think this could be the same problem, but I can't find this "screen cover" in the settings and effects of my camera.
    All the other suggestions I have tried (removing the picture, reinstall and so on).
    Maybe you can help me to find this function for my Camera Assistant Software version 1.7.
    Thank you!

  • Satellite Pro A300 can not find USB devices

    Hello forum,
    we have a costumer who has bought a Toshiba Satelite Pro A300 from us, but he gets a strange error on it.
    he connects a Sandberg USB 2.0 5port Hub to one of the usb ports, the pc finds the hub, but when he connects a memory stick to the hub nothing happens.
    the hub and memory stick works on others pc's.
    hope somebody can help.
    best regards
    John Bork
    DANBIT A/S

    Hi
    What happens if you connect the memory stick directly without this USB hub?
    I had also an USB hub but these hubs are a little bit complicated and tricky The USB specifications allows a certain power and depending on the devices that you connect you have to use an active USB hub, that means with external power supply.
    But normally Satellite Pro A300 should have enough USB ports If its necessary I would recommend an USB hub with 2 or 3 ports maximum

  • Re: Satellite Pro A300-1EA - Difficulties in BIOS update

    Hi there,
    I attempted to update BIOS on my new Satellite Pro A300-1EA (PSAG9E-001001EN) as prompted by Tempro, from version 1.50 to 1.90. The system froze completely during BIOS flash, after waiting for 1 hr, I decided to turn off the power and pray for the best. Thank heavens, everything still works, but the BIOS is still v1.50, not been updated. I have now read so many posts on the forum regarding blotched BIOS update and am now very cautious regarding undergoing any BIOS updates at all.
    My questions are: Are there any issues regarding this particular update and/or with the InsydeFlash facility? Are BIOS updates all generally so tricky that they best be avoided? What are the alternative ways to update BIOS, hopefully less dangerous? Also, could there be any potential damage to my laptop related to this miscarried BIOS flash that I should be aware of?
    Many thanks indeed!
    Monsteress

    You can feel you lucky, buddy! :)
    Im surprised that your ROM module is not damaged or something else. In most cases this happens if the computer freezes during the update.
    Let me give you a word of advice. You should only update the BIOS if its necessary or you have problems/issues with the notebook. You can ignore the messages from TEMPRO if your system runs properly. For example I never update the BIOS if my notebook runs perfect Never touch a running system ;)
    Otherwise follow the tips posted by Akuma Before you update the BIOS close all running programs, disable AntiVirus and Firewall and connect the AC/DC adaptor.
    On my Satellite U400 I have updated the BIOS without problems.

  • Why does Satellite Pro A300 not start when the power button is pressed?

    Suddenly my new Satellite Pro A300 will not start correctly when the power button is pressed. The situation is this: When I press the power button the Toshiba opening picture (Leading Innovation) appears and disappers quickly. Then there is a black screen for about 30 seconds. Then there is a rectangular frame with the text Microsoft Corporation underneath. And nothing happens however long I wait.
    In order to get on with the starting proces I then shut down the computer by pressing down the power button until the computer stops. ("The hard way to shut down")
    Now I press the power button shortly to turn on the computer. Then the computer starts normally with the Toshiba opening picture and after a few seconds I am asked to open the computer in safe mode or in normal mode. I now choose to open in normal mode and the computer opens normally and is ready to work.
    What shall I do to get a normal start procedure?

    When notebook starts normally (after choosing normal mode) shut down your notebook properly using START > Shut down option. Next start should be normal.
    When the OS is switched down on irregular way you will be always asked how to start it again (safe or normal mode).
    The same happen on my Satellite A300.

  • Satellite Pro A300 crashes with blank screen

    I have a Satellite Pro A300, AMD CPU, ATI graphics, Vista.
    The system worked fine for a year but a few months ago it started crashing, the screen went blank, not blue, anything running, like music, stopped. This can happen after several hours or minutes, or even whilst it is re-booting. All my software is up-to-date, both from Microsoft and Toshiba. I have rebuilt my system from scratch and the symptoms came back.
    At first I thought this might be a heat problem but I have monitored this but I don't think this is it. It has crashed seconds after leaving sleep mode when it has not had a chance to warm up.
    Anybody got any ideas?
    Simon

    Hi buddy,
    Theoretically it could be an overheating problem so the screen went blank due built in overheat protection...
    You should try to clean your notebook using compressed air spray. This could blow out the dust from the cooling ventilators and therefore its not necessary to disassemble the notebook.
    In your case I would recommend reading this article:

  • Re: Satellite Pro A300 - DVD drawer does not open most of the time

    I have a Satellite Pro A300-1NH laptop. The DVD drawer does not open most of the time. Occasionally it does, but most of the time it does not.
    Sometimes if I manage to get a DVD/CD into the drawer to burn something to, the burn works.
    Most of the time the computer does not recognise that there is a disc there, and then I can't open the drawer again to get it out.
    Can anyone tell a novice what I need to do to sort this out please?

    Have you noticed this when you try to open drawer using eject button in the drawer itself?
    Almost every player has integrated eject button. Can the drawer be opened using this eject button?

  • Satellite Pro A300 - I get the "Windows search" if I left click any folder

    I have just purchased a Satellite Pro A300 and downgraded it to Windows XP SP3.
    When I left-click any folder icon on my hard drive I get the 'Windows Search' window displayed instead of opening the folder. When I right-click any folder icon, the first item in the menu (bolded) is 'Search'.
    How can I change the order of these menu items so as 'Open' is the first item?
    Can I remove (Control Panel-Add or Remove Programs) the Windows Search facility without affecting any software I have loaded?
    Is having the Windows Search facility installed the likely cause of my problem?
    Thanks,
    Murray

    Have just solved my own problem:
    1. The order of items in the shortcut menu for Folders can be changed by updating the actions for specified file types in the Folder Options Menu. Select +Folder Options+ from the +Tools+ menu of any folder, select +File Types+ and scroll down to *Folder*. Click *Advanced* then click *New* and add *Open* with *Explorer* as the program to use. Click *OK* and *Close* and bingo! Appears the order of the short-cut menu in XP is Open before search, but in XP Pro is Search followed by Open/Explore.
    2. The Windows Search utility can be safely removed despite the warning issued - the Microsoft website indicates the warning is simply a generic warning and it is highly unlikely that removal will affect any software installed since the Search utility was loaded.
    3. The Windows Search utility was NOT the cause of this problem.
    Trust this might save others the hours of research I had to do to find this solution ...

  • Satellite Pro A300-1DZ does not find HDD after BIOS update

    Hi everyone,
    I have recently purchased a secondhand Satellite Pro A300 1DZ.
    Put a fresh copy of Windows xp home on it.
    I then went on to install all the drivers needed from Toshiba's own site and at the end of this I thought it may be a good idea to update the bios????
    OH DEAR what a big mistake.
    Now the netbook will NOT start windows.
    So I thought thats ok I will just start from the begginning and reinstall windows again, but it is telling me it cannot find a hard disk on my netbook?
    aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I am going crazy,
    Could someone please tell me how to fix this? Thank you x

    Hi
    I think the option SATA mode has been set to AHCI and therefore the Windows XP cannot find the HDD.
    This is because of the SATA controller.
    You can set the SATA mode from AHCI mode to compatible mode and this will allows you to install the Win XP on the notebook without the usage of SATA drivers.
    So, youve got two options if you want to install Win XP:
    AHCI mode -> but you have to include SATA drivers
    Compatible mode -> Win XP installation possible without the SATA drivers

  • Satellite Pro A300 - FN Key not working with xp downgrade

    I have just purchased a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300 and downgraded the o/s to XP.
    There is a problem with the FN key on the keyboard, it does not function. I dont know if this has something to do with the xp downgrade?
    Any ideas please?

    If you have downgraded to Windows XP with the Microsoft disk you must install the Toshiba utilities and Hotkey Utility.
    This is necessary for the FN keys in Windows XP so check the Toshiba website for these utilities:
