Can I activate the NVidia optimus on Satellite A500-1pj technology

Hello

I bought the Satellite A500-1pj 2 weeks ago now, I've heard about the nvidia optimus technology,
Is it possible to activate the graphics card on my phone to use this feature?

Thank you

Hello

I had to goolge get more information on this NVidia optimus technology
+ NVIDIA Optimus technology automatically optimizes your battery life while retaining the graphics performance exceptional you wait, if you're watching a movie, surf the web or play a 3D game +.

I found this page from nVidia
http://www.nvidia.com/object/optimus_technology.html

It seems that it is a new feature and it of not available for all nVidia chips
AFAIK all laptops which would support such technology optimus would be marked with the label of NVidia optimus technology.

So he just says you can't enable this hardware feature must support this order to use this

  • How can I activate the WiFi mini-PCI satellite 1905-S301 card?

    Greetz! I have installed a network card wireless mini-PCI in option in my Toshiba Satellite 1905-s301 specifications and turned on the power switch. MS Windows XP Home SP2 Pro edition recognized hardware and install its drivers - there is no cross or question mark next to the Atheros AR5001X + Wireless Network Adapter in Device Manager. However the connection of wireless network manager tells me that there is no current wireless network card. When pressing Fn + F8 a window appears saying that there is no build-in wireless LAN.

    What should I do to activate my mini-PCI Wireless LAN card? If possible, send your suggestions to my email, please!

    Hello

    You must activate the WLan switch on the side of the laptop!
    Additional select the WLAN card properties and check under the Advanced tab.
    There should be an option called turn on/off the Radio. You will need to fix on.

    Hello

    Newbie here, just want to ask, are there at - there a driver/software for laptop Toshiba A500/02J disc.
    I just bought a new and its been not formatted, so no recovery partition where drivers would be.

    I searched the net looking for face recognization software, etc., but nothing works.
    There must be a drive to install there somewhere...

    Can someone help a newbie?

    Concerning
    Carl

    Hello

    The laptop has not been handed over with the recovery disk because there is a pre-installed tool called Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator.
    This software could create the recovery disk that allows the laptop to factory settings still.

    By the way; Satellite A500/02J is an Australian for Toshiba laptop model and drivers must be available on the Australian Toshiba page:

  • Dead by Satellite A500-1pj after involuntary Bios Update

    Hello world

    A friend of mine bought a new PC laptop toshiba Satellite A500-1pj a month ago. Windows 7 pro 64-bit pre-installed.
    Also preinstalled: support software toshiba who - correctly - configured search automatically and installs updates and critical fixes.

    Last Sunday this wonderful software recommended an update 'critical' to my friend - she's no expert but a user experienced who can make the difference between an update of the bios (and avoid this!) and a security patch, she agreed to download and install what she believed to be a security update.

    Sure, she gave permission to an update of the bios being installed. During the process of updating the machine froze completely. She waited for three hours and then pulled the plug. Guess what: the machine is now completely gone. Does not display without fan, simply nothing.

    Hotline support Toshiba told him that his cell two weeks old is not under warranty because this warranty does not cover software 'problems and the Bios updates are software upgrades.

    The company repair says a repair will very probably equal to buy a new laptop so here we are...

    My questions:

    (1) the laptop is a Satellite A500-1pj (PSAR9E-01M00QGR) fitted to a phoenix UEFI bios (bios toshiba/phoenix, 1.1.26 update tool is pretty radical - no warning at all! he tried to update me my computer dell laptop, lucky!).
    I found some posts on older machines that can be reflashed using a usb disk, hot spare bios back and a combination of keys (Fn + B or Fn + F...). is it possible to do this with a UEFI bios too?

    (2) anyone out there have the same problem?

    (3) any chance of toshiba help us with that issue and prevent others from making the same mistake to understand at least a warning in their bios updates?

    Thanks for your help!

    Tony

    > The company repair says a repair will very probably equal to buy a new laptop so here we are...
    I doubt that
    I think that the module ROM BIOS was flashed incorrectly (don't know why) and therefore you can not start the laptop.
    This can happen for different reasons, maybe that the update process was interrupted due to a process running in the background, etc.

    In order to solve this problem, the ROM module must be flashed again using a special crisis disk BIOS... that's all.

    The update of the BIOS is always a sensitive procedure but if everything was done correctly, then update the BIOS must successfully complete.

    I found this very interesting and useful to Toshiba and HowTo doc correctly updated the BIOS!

    It would be cool, but I don't think it was an aspect of the design. The back of my screen to the wall. The size and the quality of the image and the glass, I think, speaks for itself. The black Apple logo on finely designed aluminum case is very well see when switching from an office. We'll let the glowing Apple logos to Mac Air and MacBooks.

  • How can I activate the plugins?

    Hello

    I can not activate the plug-ins.

    Today, I had a problem with firefox using too much CPU resources. I restarted my browser in safe mode to see if addons are the cause. I also disabled all the plugins. After I found the defective addon, I inexplicable firefox in normal mode. There is unfortunately no way to activate plug-ins now.

    Whenever I have activate a plugin it shows as enabled in the plugin list. But the plugins are not loaded on sites requireing them (Mozilla plugincheck can not find plug-ins active either: https://www.mozilla.org/de/plugincheck/).

    Restart the browser did not help either. After each restart, all plugins are shown as invalid later.

    What way is there to activate the plugins?

    Thanks in advance

    You can delete the pluginreg.dat file in the Firefox profile folder and perhaps as well to reset addons.sqlite the plugin registry data bases.
