Back-up on Satellite A505

Hello

First of all I am sorry for my English :-)
I have a problem with my Toshiba Satellite A505-s6979
My HARD drive shows that I have a free space of 13G 48g HARD drive and the sum of all the files is only 26 GB.
And... the HARD drive is full every day.

Is it a backup of calendar program?
How can I cancel it?

Please help me...

Hello

I've searched for the specifications on the Toshiba us pages because it of a model IS.
I did it because I was wondering about the size of the HARD disk
Now, it seems that the A505-s6979 was equipped with the SSD from 64 GB and 320 GB SATA HDD

I think that the Vista has been installed on this SSD hard drive and it also contains the hidden backup Vista partition.
The hidden partition is created automatically by Vista and is necessary for the restoration of the system, if something goes wrong.
I think that you can see if you go to the Vista disk management console.

  • Problems of wireless with my Satellite A505

    Hello people,

    I have a Satellite A505 which uses a Realtek RTL8191SE wireless network card. Recently, I had connectivity problems with my home router. This configuration used to work perfectly, but recently, I had a problem where I won't be able to connect to my router wireless access point. Reset the adapter does not solve the problem, or don't restart.

    I found that my router reboot solves the problem, I am able to login after the reboot of the router. I have not had this problem on any of the other devices or laptops in my house and never had this problem until last month. I tried to do a factory reset on my router in order to ensure that some recent changes in our setup of the router were not to blame, but the problem persists even with a clean slate.

    Ideas for what to do?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    >... and never had this problem until the last month or more
    Do you use WLAN driver from Toshiba support page?
    I ask this question because I noticed that under Win7 driver for this wireless network card is offered as optional update. Maybe this update is installed, and now you have this problem.
    If possible, try to roll back OS a few weeks back and check if the problem persists.

  • No sound with Satellite A505-S6960

    Hello

    Last week the sound went out on my Satellite A505-S6960 speakers and the headphone jack. I'm currently running Vista. Before that, the sound worked fine for the first 6 weeks. After you have reinstalled the following driver, the sound worked fine again:

    Driver: Realtek Audio Driver for Windows Vista (32 bit / 64 bit)
    Found here: http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/modelContent.jsp?ct=DL&os=&category=&moid=2346347& rpn = PSAP0U & modelFilter = A505-S6960 & SelCategorie = 3 & selFamily = 1073768663

    However, now, 3 days later the sound no longer works, and reinstalling the driver does not help this time. Someone knows what's the problem?

    Thank you.

    Have you tried the system restore option to roll back the OS to an earlier time when everything worked well?
    Maybe some update Microsoft has messed up sound.

  • Satellite A505-S6005: creating recovery discs power calibration error

    Hello

    just bought a satellite A505-S6005 and try to create recovery discs.
    I am using Dynex DVD - R.

    He created the 1st disk after the slightest mistake 2 times and when I started the 2nd drive continued to get again the message that is OE01BS-26 error Code - 2 said A 037303 power calibration area error occurred, check the disk for dirt or scratches.

    The disks are not scratched, and after going through 5-6 discs wonder if something is wrong with the optical drive & not the disks.

    Any help appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Hello

    I think it's a problem with your DVD media
    You are using incompatible disks!

    Try different DVD from different manufacturers.
    I m using the Verbatim or TDK DVD-R and my CD/DVD drive handles these discs without problem.

    Check it! I'm sure this will help you!

  • Satellite A505 breaks down

    This laptop has begun recently to close (as it would if I pressed the power button) for no apparent reason.
    I suspect that it is because it is overheating, but there were a couple times when he did it in a few minutes of starting with nothing else running.

    I play on it, that's its main purpose. I tried running the fan speed, but it does not detect the fans in the computer laptop, yet very useful because I can monitor the temperature of the GPU and carrots. Just to give more information, usually the GPU is at 45-47 degrees Celsius when I don't turn all games and times of the nuclei are at 55-60 degrees Celsius.

    When I run games, the GPU temperature climbs to about 80, and carrots are somewhere in the range of 85 to 95 degrees. The fan seems it works and I have a cooler pad that the laptop is on.
    Ideas for what might have caused this? The laptop is around the age of 8 months, and it's a Satellite A505, i7 processor clocked at 1.6 ghz, graphic card nvidia GeForce 330 m with 4 GB of RAM.

    Have you already tried to clean the radiator?
    If you are a player and use the laptop for games I can imagine there are a lot of dust inside.

  • Satellite A505 - where can I get display driver for XP?

    Hello

    I recently bought a Satellite A505-S6986 that has a NVIDIA GeForce GT 230 M graphics card. Unfortunately I have to downgrade my Windows7 XP OS for my work. I tried to download the drivers for the Geforce 200 m (and others) series manually, the automatic detection tool and read the countless forums without success.

    Can you please help me locate THE display drivers that will install successfully on my system? (I don't mind if they are legacy/old).

    Thanks for any help
    Chance

    Hello

    I think it might be a little difficult to get a display driver for XP and this graphics card. The fact is that Windows XP is old and the past. No support, there is more to the new laptops.

    I think the only option is the original nVidia Driver but these drivers are not pre-tested on your laptop and doesn t have protection against overheating. He could destroy your graphics card.

    In your case, I would like to install Windows 7. If you use the Ultimate edition is there a XP virtualization mode where you can run older applications.

  • Satellite A505-S6995 - Audio MP3s fading in and out of play

    Hello

    I had audio problems with this laptop since I bought it, first with the Crackle of the sounds, then I did the update of the bios that seemed to help, but now there are all sorts of problems with his awkward with Windows Media Player.

However, if I use windows media 12 (last updated edition) Player, the audio volume seems to fade in and out and its a little wobbly and certainly enough for you drive crazy. This is strange, because if you go directly to the music folder and click on the mp3 even, it seems, there is a sort of plugin to make an audio preview and it seems to use windows media player (it does not open, but they way the icon looks like just seems to indicate that he) no audio no issues at all. I tried different mp3s with the same question. It is not hard I crank my system. It also happens with headphones and speakers. There is no audio problem with netflix audio, streaming, on demand, etc. I will continue to look and see if I forget something, but I have yet to find solutions.

  • Satellite A505 - change standard user instead of administrator

    Hello

    I recently bought a Satellite A505-S6005. Windows 7 is already installed on the laptop.

    The problem I encounter is that I'm a standard user. I'm not the administrator. I would like to change that, so I'll be able to change or install programs.
    The problem came earlier, but the difference is that I don't have the windows 7 CD to start Setup again and choose administrator instead of the standard user.
    Thank you very much for your help!

    Hi ManiakRe,

    In my opinion it of not necessary to reinstall Windows. You can change user permissions in your control panel of the active administrator account set. Then you can use this account, but normally you shouldn't t use an account with permissions to administrator if you surf the Internet.

    Also take a look on Google. There are enough pages they describe how to change user permissions.

  • Can satellite A505 - I configure media buttons?

    Hi all:

    I have a question: is it possible to configure multimedia LED buttons "Play/Pause", "RW" and "FF" of my Satellite A505-S6965 to run a program?

    I know it's possible to do it with the 'eco', the buttons "mute" using the program "Support of Toshiba Button" and the "quick start", but this program offers no option to configure the three buttons that I mentioned above.

    If someone could help, I appreciate it very much, because I don't know where else research...

    Thanks in advance.

    Hey Buddy,

    You're already good. You can only configure the media buttons that you can find in the list of Toshiba button support.

    But for game, RW, FF, etc keys it of not possible to configure them. You can use them in Windows Media Player for example. That s as comfortable! :)

  • On Satellite A505-S6973 keyboard problems

    Goodday once again everyone,

    Can someone tell me if the built-in on my Satellite A505-S6973 keyboard has a backlight.
    I watch a lot of these new laptops and similar to mine, under the keyboard it is white and I don't know if that's how it's supposed to light. If so, can someone tell me.

    On the Toshiba U.S. support page I checked the specification for laptop computer and, of course, your laptop doesn t have this backlit keyboard.
    Just FYI: all illuminated keyboard have FN + Z option to turn on/off illumination.
    With other words symbol small keyboard will be on the Z key.

    This option, when the backlit keyboard is in the book is also available in Toshiba HWSetup tool.

    Hello

    You are lucky, your laptop still works except keyboard after water spill. I work as an engineer at Hp computer service, and clients sometimes bring us computers completely dead after water, juice, coffee spill. Heh.

    Contact your Toshiba service center to solve the problem. but I do not know if the warranty covers the it. In Hp Centre of such situation is not covered. We do it just for the money.

  • Satellite A505-s6970: Toshiba Service Station does not work on Windows 7

    Hey guys I need your help,

    I installed windows 7 ultimate on my toshiba Satellite A505 s6970 and I downloaded all the drivers from http://www.csd.toshiba.com/ and I installed all.

    When I open the Device Manager, 3 devices are not installed (Base-2 system device / / 1-Unknown device).
    Then I installed toshiba service station (Windows Vista / 7 32-64 bit because my windows is 64) it will search for and automatically download all necessary devices, but it does not work on windows 7, it worked perfectly in windows vista.

    Also the eco utility does not work, and the media touch buttons work just fine, but without giving that voice tone.

    Thanks for your help

    Hello

    To be honest I have no experience with this tool.
    I m using Tempro.

    However, I guess that Toshiba service station was not tested and not designed for Win 7 at the moment.
    You may need to wait for the next update that works correctly with Windows 7.

    You must understand that the Windows 7 drivers have been released in Beta version, it would mean that the final version would be released in the near future
    In my opinion, you should take a look from time to time on the Toshiba page we.
    I noticed that each new day pilot is released and released.

    Hello

    According to some security sites this exe file is required for essential applications to work properly and the necessary system process should not be disabled.
    So it of a part of the windows system and one of the reasons of this problem could be that an essential part of Windows is damaged.
    Another reason: your antivirus has deleted regsvr.exe because your system might be infected by a malicious program.

    However, usually the new installation should work.
    You can use a CCleaner and might clean the registry to remove all traces of free software Config

    Hello!

    I didn't install Windows 7 on my Satellite A500 again but I've done a clean install of too. The only difference is that it is Vista not Windows 7.

    I mean, it's the same as Akuma. You will find on the site of Toshiba Eco Utility. I even checked the Toshiba page we and I can't find the Eco utility. It s is only available for Vista at the moment but you should try it because most of the drivers are also works on Windows 7. It s worth a try!
