Satellite Pro P100-465 Vista - video play back stutters, slows down

I'm at my wits end :-(
uninstalled drivers - re installed drivers - updated drivers (nvidia don't even list the 7600 Go graphics card for vista - used other site recommmened in this site) - changed screen resolution, changed screen bits depth, removed anti virus - plenty of system resources available yet on every single video file playback slows down and speeds up or stutters especially bad when i full screen.
Tried different video files and dvds, different codecs and players, vlc, media player classic, neros show time, WMP etc etc all are effected. Seems like others have had similar problems and thought maybe they had some more ideas to solve this one ??
Is there something i haven't tried ? please let me know... thanks for your help

I have found a thread about very similar issue.
Take a look here:

Satellite Pro P100-465: fans are noisy

Hello,
I have a P100-465 running XP Pro on it. I have had the laptop about 6mths now and the one thing I have noticed about this laptop is that it is SO noisy. When using the laptop the fans go on and off constantly....even if I am not doing anything resource hungry. is this normal? I understand that the machine is powerful but I can't believe this is normal.
I use to have a P25-S670 and the fans use to come on every now and then to keep the machine cool but this new laptop is INSANELY annoying. As I am typing this the fans go on and off every few seconds. It sounds like the fans RPM increases substantially but only for a second or two and then it drops down. In the BIOS I have even set the option to silent mode instead of performance mode but this hasn't made any difference. I am running all the latest drivers and firmware.
Can someone help please as this is driving me NUTS! ;-) Is there a way to control the fan speed/noise from within Windows? I remember on my P25 I could change the power options to silent mode and it made quite a big difference.

Hi mate,
did you already cleaned your cooling system? Maybe that could be the point since such small ventilation systems are susceptible to be clobbed with dust after a while of running.
A idea would be to give your machine to a technician and ask him to clean your machine and to put some new cooling grease on the CPU.
That should help and prevent your machine from overheating or excessive fan noise.
Cheers

Official release of XP and Vista drivers for Satellite Pro P100-465 PSPAEE

When will the drivers be available for both XP and Vista for the PSPAEE? Currently there are drivers for the PSPA4E some of which work, some not, on either operating system. Yes the laptop is preinstalled with the Vista Ugrade and the drivers work but two of the driver apps are blocked by Defender (NDSTRay / ConfigFree and VolControl). I could get no options to enable these (unclassified as yet from MS so they are locked out) I was told to disable Defender by tech-support!
I have tried a clean install of my own version of Vista Business and had driver problems with that as well.
I would like to run XP until Vista is, shall we say, more efficient but would like to use drivers specifically for it so a time-frame would be very useful.
I'd also like to know why there is a plug where a finger-scanner could go underneath the 0 of the number-pad, and a blocked-off lower PCMCIA (PCI-E?) port when neither of these are available as upgrade options? Did I miss those upgrade options or is this a case recycled from another model where they are available? If the latter then that's pretty cheap for a new machine :)

The Toshiba USA site offers comprehensive information on Vista upgrade and drivers for P100/105 machines which include similar ones to those released in the UK/Europe. If you want to be at the bleading edge of technology/take a chance see

Toshiba Satellite Pro P100-465 17" screen.

My Tosh has a vertical 30cm white band 90cm from the right hand side of the screen, the background is normal. If I use an external monitor the picture is ok. I have fitted a new screen, and it is just backlit, putting my old screen back the fault is the same, I’ve refitted the connections to the screen and p.c.b board by the LH hinge, no change. I sent the new screen back and they said it tested ok, so I suspect the wiring! Any other advice would be appreciated.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have recently bought and fitted a used/tested cable and inverter and the old screen work ok but still has the vertcal white band on the screen. External monitor fine.
Any ideas, but I still suspect the screen.

Toshiba drivers for WXP and VISTA fpr a Satellite Pro P100 - PSPAH

Hello.
I need help. I bought a Satellite pro P100 - PSPAH with Vista Premium Home edition as recovery version. Now I want to install a second OS like WXP on this notebook. The problem is that WXP didn't found 3 drivers. For Sound, LAN and a other device. Because of this I update my notebook with the latest chipset drivers, but the problem is still there. Vista has now problems with the drivers, too. I cannot find the special driver on the main page from toshiba.
mfg jens

Hi
I understand your problem At this time I prefer also the XP instead of the Vista OS.
The Vista needs simply too many notebook resources and all the applications and 3rd devices are not 100% supported by Vista.
But what to say dude seems you have to search for compatible drivers on chip manufacture sites.
Download and install a tool hardware diagnostic tool called Everest or similar one and try to find out what LAN and sound chips are used in your notebook!
Then you could search for the drivers on Intel, Realtek, etc.. pages
Do you know the Toshiba Canada driver site???
http://209.167.114.38/support/Download/ln_byModel.asp
There you will also find some Pro P100 series. Try these drivers. It's worth a try.

Need Vista 64-bit drivers for Satellite Pro P100

Hello,
I have one question about Drivers for Vista 64bit version. I have a notebook Satellite Pro P100 and search in the drivers catalogue and find only a BIOS update for 64-bit systems.
But where can I find the Hardware drivers for 64-bit versions?
Regards
Mischa

The 4 GB RAM issue is a known issue at the toshiba helpdesk (yes I had it and called) it's due to a problem programming the BIOS to handle more then 3GB.
As for your drivers I can tell you in advance you can find everything except SD Card driver and the microphone jack in plug support driver.
I'm sorry I forgot where I found those but the rest is out there (you can also try installing 32-bit version for the most).
Ow and the BIOS - update for 64 bit doesn't work for me so don't count on it to much lol

Webcam video plays back super fast speed

hi, does anyone know about this: when i record video from my creative Live! Cam Video IM Pro, the play back is like twice the speed of real life. like a video speeded up. it was working fine on my previous computer, which was windos xp, and i upgraded to a newer computer with windows vista 64 bit, and now the video play back is too fast. i also tried viewing the video on other viewers like windows media and VLC, still too fast.

Hi David,
I think we may be able to say more if you can tell us more about the rest of your code. What sort of structures are you using, and where are you dropping your AVI Capture code in? Is the video sped up on your front panel or when you play the resulting file?
You should post the larger piece of code if possible.

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?

P.S. I can be reached by any Toshiba or Microsoft technical support guru looking to make a difference and help me out.

Satellite Pro P100 - Synaptics touchpad issue using Win 7

Satellite Pro P100 with Synaptics touch pad, was running Vista, now Win 7 64 bit.
The original driver had an option "disable when external pointing device connected".
I have installed a driver from Synaptics Synaptics_v14_0_3_C_XP64_Vista64_Win7-64_Signed_default.exe which does not have this check box.
It works fine except that sometimes the Microsoft Mouse turns off and on every few seconds as it or the touchpad fight each. I have to disable the touchpad.
Then next time I turn on. If I do so without a mouse, I cannot use the touchpad, until i plug in the mouse, reactivate, then unplug the mouse.
Thanks

Sorry, but this problem is reccurring more frequently (like every 2 or 3 days). The driver you recommend does not have the "disable touchpad when external mouse connected", nor does the Fn+F9 button work. Both touchpad and mouse are active at the same time with the result that the mouse becomes active, inactive, active, inactive every few seconds, and is that happens the secondary monitor goes blank (which is normal when new drivers are being installed, such as for an unrecognised flash drive). Thanks.

Satellite Pro P100 PSPAEA - Irritating Fan Noise

Hi,
I have a Satellite Pro P100 PSPAEA and it honestly must be the most irritating laptop I have ever owned.
The problem is the cooling fan that has a tendancy to spin up to maximum regularly, sit there for a couple of seconds then spin down.
Rather than just increasing in speed to cool it kinda roars for a second or two then reduces speed. It can do this like every 15 seconds or so and is driving me nuts especially in a quiet room. I am running Windows Vista and the latest V4.4 BIOS. I am ready to kick this thing out the door and never buy Toshiba again.
But before I do this does anyone know of a solution?
Thanks

Updating the driver does seem to have fixed the probem.
Thank you very much!
Now if only I could get VT working the laptops stay of execution could last significantly longer!
I do recommend installing a 7200rpm drive for this particular model. The one Toshiba ships with it is appallingly slow (what were they thinking).

Two external LCD on Satellite Pro P100-324

Hello friends
I have Satellite Pro P100-324 with GeForce Go 7900 GS graphic card. I need to work with two external LCD displays. One primary and second as secondary in DualView. But this is not working under Windows XP SP2. In Vista Home Basic it works normally. Is there any chance to work on this notebook on Windows XP with two external monitors sith DualView mode?
Thanks.

Wait a moment. You will say that you can make running two external displays connected to your Satellite P100?
Can you please tell me how you have connected both of them and how you can switch to both external displays?
As far as I know it is possible to use just one external display, but two at the same time

Hi Michel,
Many thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately I have tried your suggested approach
probably 20 times or more with around 8 different drivers. So far none have fully
installed and fixed the issue.
Perhaps 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?!?

Satellite Pro P100 - Can't connect to Internet via LAN

I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro P100. Model No SPSA4A-005002
I used my recovery disk and wiped my computer, because of a virus and now I cant connect to the internet via cable but my wireless internet works perfectly.
Its completely dead there are no lights at the back of the laptop from where I plug the cable in.

Hi
Is your LAN card recognized properly in device manager?
In your case I would try updating the LAN driver. You can get the latest version here:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
Furthermore you check the BIOS version. The latest version should be installed and load the default settings there.
In worst case its a hardware problem and you have to exchange the whole mainboard :(

How to connect the Satellite Pro P100 to Hifi

I've got Satellite Pro P100. How to connect this notebook to HiFI
This is probably easy, but what can i say... just call me stupid.
I've got the lead that goes out of the headphone jack, it links up to my hifi nice.
Trouble being, there's a nasty hiss in the background. Tried plugging my boys mp3 player into the lead, and that works fine.
Any chance of some help... thanks

Hi
In my knowledge you can connect the Sat Pro P100 to HiFi only via a 2-RCA Audio Y cable adapter. In my knowledge the notebook does not support the S/PDIF audio out so you will be able only to use an analog sound port.
You could also buy a stereo adapter with 2x cinch jacks to connect the notebook to the Hifi. Such adapter can be plugged into the headphone jack
Check this:
stereo adapter
I think you should visit the nearest notebook dealer. He can show you the right and supported cables and adapters.
