Why my laptop Tosapins folder do not have a webcam driver, only got Chicony camera assistant software nia. In the toshiba website, I found Satellite M200 Vista: Webcam Driver dated 27/8/07 and camera assistant software driver for XP. So I only download the webcam driver (3 parts) dated 27/8/07 for Vista nia, right? Just now I went to Device manager, imaging devices, USB2.0 PC Camera and click on the Update driver and Search automatically for updated driver software. After few minutes, it pop up this message...
"The best driver software for your device is already installed. Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date. Chicony USB 2.0 camera"
I check the driver date is 9/1/07 but in the Toshiba website is 27/8/07. Is it advisable to download the 3 parts driver and manually install in my laptop? Thanks!

yup .... u can manually uninstall the orginal driver and then install the new one ...



and in the chicony camera software assistant software includes the drivers as well ...

Just installed the webcam driver. Initially it show "Graph failed to render" when I turn on the camera. I restart again the system, now no more error message. Hope everything is fine now.....

I visited the Toshiba website after seeing your post. They have Toshiba Value Added Package v1.1.3 upgrade for download as well.

I wonder what is in the new upgrades? I just wonder where they keep their documentation for the upgrades?

i saw that Toshiba also has a new Wifi driver for Vista issit good?

all intel wifi drivers r standard ... so i guess it doesnt make much of a difference ...

updating ur bios is also important as well ... for hardware better compatibility ...

I did installed this package last few days but seem no different compare with original one, can't notice any new software in the system FYI, when I try to installed one of the file, error appeared on the screen but I can't remember what is it liao so I just skipped this installation.

hi all, since this is the toshiba forum, don't know whether y'all mind answering this doubt that I have.
firstly, I intend to buy a new Toshiba notebook from the US. the notebook would come with 1 yr standard warranty i think. I think the warranty also covers internationally so I can bring it to the local service provider/repairer (Teledynamics) and get it repaired (in case the notebook breaks down). but what if I want to purchase extra warranty? do i get it from the sellers in the US or get it from Teledynamics? I think the extra warranty covers every notebook no matter where they were bought from, right?
hope somebody would enlighten me on this.

u have to check and see what does the international warranty covers ...

plus u cant buy an extended warranty for US models in teledynamics ...

they wont have the exact parts here ... if it warranty does cover in malaysia, its still gonna take sometime for repairs cos the mobo version in the US and here r different ...

i got a question out the A200-E530 price, wat i see the price is RM3799, anyway to find a cheaper price for this?

well, from what I read, the 1yr standard warranty covers internationally and covers repairs worldwide. I think you can take it to the local service provider and get it fixed. well, i think it's ok if its gonna some time to get it fixed, as long as its fixed. but, what I'm concerned is the period after the 1 yr standard warranty expires.

didn't know the US mobo and the version here is diff
why is that? is it because of the diff voltage?

I'm have own toshiba satellite A80. Toshiba lover also.. but unlucky is i get "rompak" on last 2 month in johor bharu... so now just own 1 toshiba thumdrive.. so i think i'm that not qualifi for join your club... but anyway, all dear brother and sister... Best wish to yours toshiba club..

last time a customer sent in a m35 US model ... took almost 2 months to get the mobo replaced ...
