1st i also feel so but after some tweaking Vista, it does run beautifully. Only the loading time longer.. with same program installed, XP take 1 min to load in OS while Vista take 2½min.

Erm.. Vista RoX tongue.gif
*
who can deny that vista is the future ... but anyway ... the hardwares r getting better too these days so with better hardwares and more tweaks on the way ... vista is the only way to go within these few years ...

hahaha ...

i would upgrade to vista when

thumbup.gif the next service pack that is out ...

it sure looks and feel pretty ...

Yeah, sometimes I have this problem also...it show camera locked by another application...dunno which program that cause this problem. I have to restart the laptop then only is ok....Anyone got any idea?
*
nope ... its vista ... if u downgrade to xp there is no such problems ...

wait till toshiba comes out with an update for the webcam software ...

the demo units i have on display at my place also have these problem sometimes ...

there is a new webcam driver on the toshiba website ...

hi guys.. Im considering an old Toshiba Portege A100 (not to be confused with Satellite A100)

For around RM1800 issit worth it?
*
nope ... not worth it ... the portege a100 is quite old already ...

but if u r looking for something small and basic then its ok ...

that model has 3 years warranty originally ...

but make sure everything is fine ... the mobo for that model is not cheap man ...

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 ...

thumbup.gif

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

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 ...

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.  smile.gif
*
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 ...

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  blink.gif
why is that? is it because of the diff voltage?
*
yup ... its the voltage ... as US uses 110V and here its 220V - 240V

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

wow, thanks for the info!! but is it advisable to disable the system restore function ? how much space will be saved from there ?

i check the norton installer only took up 200Mb...not much, should i keep it until i wanto instal new Anti Virus? rclxub.gif
*
the system restore function eats up ur hdd space from time to time ... so i guess disabling it is the best ... u got ur recovery anyway ... and always back up ur data to a 3rd party media ... like portable hdd or dvd ...

uninstall norton lar ... its crap bro ...
