Battery of Satellite U500 - 10L it unloads free 25% in 24 hours.

Hello guys,.

I bought a Toshiba Satellite U500 - 10L recently, I noticed that my battery discharges that it self in 25% throughout the night
with regard to the other forum that ive seen they said I have to disable WAKE on KEYBOARD, WAKE up LAN, USB SLEEP and CHARGE and later is HDMI-CEC,
but still problem is there.

Please can someone tell me what to do next?

Hello

Usually it s not uncommon is that a battery would lose about 4% of the power while it off s. But your battery loses about 25%, and it is strange

Check if your laptop uses the latest version of the BIOS and if a newer version is available then
Update.

Otherwise this could be a battery problem and you should get in touch with a local ASP.

  • Satellite U500 - 10L and password protection

    Greetings,

    I have Windows Vista (service pack 2) installed on my laptop Toshiba Satellite U500 - 10L (PSU5EE). Recently, I encountered a serious problem; Password Admin Windows is vulnerable through the Start Menu (hit F12 when you turn on the laptop) machine, I mean anyone with a USB/CD boot can crack the password.

    Now I would restrict access to the Start Menu - or remove the boot by USB/CD options in the Menu. I just installed the updated BIOS (2.5 WIN), but unfortunately the BIOS provides no options to restrict access to or to modify the Start Menu. I find it is a major breach of security, is their anyway to deal with this problem?

    I appreciate your quick response.

    Best regards, John

  • Satellite U500 - 10L - Windows must be activated

    Hello.

    I bought Satellite U500 - 10L of WATER and windows vista has been installed on it. After I bought the laptop by message 4 months appear telling me that windows is not original, and it must be enabled. I contact Microsoft but they told me to go to Toshiba and much in demand won't start and I tried to get into the series several times but refuse the windows.

    Now I need to know what I can do to fix that?

    Hello

    You use the preinstalled version of Vista or did you do your own installation? The key on the lower side belongs to the pre-installed Windows version and t can be used with other versions.

    If you are using the factory settings, this message shouldn't t appear. Did you install additional software or tools?
    You should try a system restore to an earlier point in this case. Maybe it helps

  • Satellite U500 - 10L - how to bring it back to factory settings?

    That if I don't have any of my Satellite U500 - 10L recovery disk and I need to format this laptop and bring it back to the factory settings and Windows? It is true that it is inside the laptop?
    Previously I formatted and installed windows 7, in this case is the recovery has been removed from this laptop!

    Thanks :)

    Hey Buddy,

    I think you didn't read the manual right? ;)

    Recovery procedure is very easy and you have two options: HDD recovery or recovery disk.

    HARD drive recovery can be used with the version preinstalled Windows only so if you have installed another version of Windows this option isn't available anymore. The exact procedure is described in the user manual, you need to enter the advanced Windows (key F8) boot menu and choose fix my computer. You will see a new window where you can choose the HARD drive recovery.

    The Toshiba recovery disc yourself using the preinstalled Media Creator Toshiba recovery must be created. That's why you have some blank DVDs and the tool will automatically create the discs. This disk can still be used to restore the original settings, independent what OS is installed, as well as on the new hard drives. If it still works because the HARD disk will be cleaned completely before installation.

    Now it s also too late for disk recovery, but you can order a copy here:

  • Satellite U500-120 or better battery?

    Hello

    I recently bought the Toshiba Satellite U500-120, but I'm disappointed with the low battery life. I would like to know if there are better batteries their compatible with my laptop?

    Hello

    I discovered that the U500-120 (not sure if all the models are equipped with the same battery) uses 3700mAh 6cell battery.
    It s a standard battery.

    I think that a stronger battery could be purchased too
    All ASP (partners) are usually able to order a compatible part (any part it is) of the head stock Toshiba

    I think you should just contact these guys and you would get the battery needed stronger and more

  • Satellite U500 - 11 C - power supply unit not detected

    Hello

    on my Satellite U500 - 11 C, the power supply is no longer recognizes (the rest green LED turns off when I plug)

    I tested my diet and it's OK

    I disassemble my laptop to check the connector and the power is OK of the external connector to the connector on the motherboard.

    with my battery, the computer works normally (but the battery is not more)

    You have an idea on how to solve this problem?
    What can I check?

    > Do you have an idea on how to fix this?
    If the battery and the mains adapter are ok, while a single problem can cause this: faulty motherboard.
    Maybe there is something wrong with the electronic power supply on the motherboard.

    Of course this is only my personal opinion, but I put t see any other reason for that

  • Satellite U500 memory leak - 18 p

    I have PSU8CE 18 p Satellite U500 with preinstalled Windows7 Home Premium x 64 with 4 GB RAM. When I start mode safe then memory not sunk. When I start it in Normal mode then nonpaged kernel memory develops up to 3011 MB (~ 4 days running).

    I downloaded poolmon.exe and Crescent pool tag found: "AmlH" (ACPI AMLI Pooltags). In safe mode, this pool has 1 single allocation unit. In Normal Mode ~ every 73 seconds he returned new unit. Size of each unit is 524288 bytes.

    Then I downloaded and installed "Windows Performance Toolkit" and run xperf.exe and xperfview.exe according to

    I restored windows to State factory but still present memory leak.

    Memory leaks are a common error in programming.
    leak memory occurs when a computer program consumes memory, but is unable to release it in the operating system.

    In your case, it would be necessary to know what application or process that runs in the background do
    This can be very long process you would need to install a system of fees will need to check the memory leak after each installation of driver or another application

  • Satellite U500/00 x PSU5EA - second partition disappeared

    Hey...

    I have the Toshiba Satellite U500-00 x his Australian machine... This is the second time it happened...
    I have two partition one is for Windows Vista and other where I put the data... before suddenly two weeks less than one second my other dissapeard in car and when I saw him in my Comp-> Manage.

    She gave free space for this player and when I allocated space for a player, it was empty, but later I was positive to bring the data back with 80% recovery software...

    Now, yesterday happened the same thing and this time the software recovery isn't yet able to return data only 10% data are back and even some files of them are corrupted...

    can we know what is the reason to go by car?

    Hello

    To be honest I have never heard of this show something like that's never happened to me and I didn t read all other threads like this.

    Usually the partition should not be affected by installed applications.
    In my opinion, this issue may be related to a HARD disk problem
    The partition was perhaps not created correctly partition table has been damage.

    However, I think you need to format the HARD drive again and it must recover in order to recreate the partitions.
    Maybe this could helps avoid the problems of the others.

  • Re: Satellite U500 - 18K - where is the bag and the driver on the CD?

    I just bought this laptop yesterday and when I read the manual book its has said that the package includes the bag and the driver on the CD but I had none of them, only the laptop and the power cable.

    When I ask the man to store, he says, it's all... no other. Where can I ask questions about it? Or is it a common thing?

    Hello

    Can you please tell us what page you found this information? This does not to me you get a bag and the driver on the CD with Notepad.
    Can also explain what you mean with CD driver?

    I checked the manual of my Satellite U500 and it shows the following information about the material delivered in package:
    + Toshiba Satellite U500 laptop PC +.
    + Universal AC adapter power cord + and
    + Battery (is preinstalled on the computer).
    + Cleaning cloth (is included with some models).

  • The GMA 4500 can be activated on Satellite U500 - 115 (PSU5EE)?

    Hello

    I own the U500-115 PSU5EE for about a week now. Today, I looked again on the Toshiba site and I noticed that the U500-115 uses the Intel GM45 Express chipset, see here: http://de.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/product/Satellite-U500-115/1070387/toshibaShop/false/

    http://www.Intel.com/CD/products/services/EMEA/DEU/chipsets/398739.htm
    Intel says that this chipset has a device integrated video GMA 4500MHD.

    I have not seen the GMA 4500 in the Device Manager and I have not found a possibility to active it. Everest Ultimate says there is an Intel GMA 4500MHD built in and it is disabled.

    So, can be activated and used instead the 4570 to save energy while being on the battery?

    If it s not active, then from a good reason. The manufacturer doesn't have to trigger specific in a chipset functions, even if the manufacturer of the chipset says it is applied.

    BUT: If there is a powersaving option that switches between graphics cards, then you won´t have influence on that because this will be controlled automatically by the system and the drivers.

    Hope I could help... :)

  • WLAN and LAN on Satellite U500 connectivity issues

    I have a Satellite U500 laptop, the problem is that I have never connected to the internet, even if the modem works well in other devices such as mobile.
    I'm trying to connect to the internet automatically and manually. It s always saying limited connectivity or local only.
    I ve checked the driver for my wireless and LAN cards and everything works correctly. Then I plugged as the hub of LAN or Ethernet cable, sound correctly connect the laptop to the modem, but I checked the free config or a physician any link is in x.

    I followed the steps but it s not solved my problem.
    I hope someone can give me an advice.

    Somehow it seems to me that you have a problem with your router.
    Restart your router, and then try again.
