Cannot connect by Satellite Pro projector if more than 3-4 m cable

We have several laptops - and we have never had any problems that they might know an external projector.
The length of the cable is normally around 10 m.

Our Toshiba Satellite Pro laptops can only connect to an external projector if the cable length is less than 3 to 4 meters.

What shall we do?

Hello

> Our Toshiba Satellite Pro laptops can only connect to an external projector if the cable length is less than 3 to 4 meters.
It seems that the video signal is too weak and he cannot reach the appliance connected to the end of the cable.

I found this info useful on this page that explains this behavior:

+ A normal PC, notebook or tablet PC VGA signal is not designed to operate on long cable runs. +
+ You can find only one kind of PC or laptop will work with a long cable to projector, and another type of PC or laptop may not work. +
+ However, this does not mean that the second computer is down. +

_Solution: _
The VGA signal must be amplified before it can be sent to the bottom of a long cable. These symptoms are all indicative of weak signal problems (or bad wiring).
You should always use an amplifier VGA (active), Terminal VGA box (active) or a switching VGA (active) unit when you use along the VGA cables

Good bye

  • Cannot connect the Satellite Pro L series to TV

    Hello

    I have trouble displaying to an external source (LCD TV). There is no display when I connect to the TV. When I press Fn + F5 the only option available is the LCD cell phone IE. I checked on the driver settings and there is no option to select the parameters for a secondary/external monitor.

    Does anyone know what I need to do so that I can display to an external source?

    I use the connection of 15 pins with an adapter to convert video connection - is it ok or should I use the S-video connection on the back of my laptop?

    Any help would be appreciated

    Hello

    This TV option does not appear because you have connected the TV to the wrong place.
    The TV device must be connected to the laptop s-video port via compatible and s-video cable supported!

    Then, you can use FN + F5 to switch the display to the TV set.
    Please note: sometimes the s-video channel must be enabled on the TV!

  • How to connect by Satellite Pro A300-1LW to TV - only monitors VGA port available

    I want to connect my Satellite Pro A300 1LW to the TV to watch DVDs and videos on the internet.
    There is only a single VGA output.

    I have this connected to the input VGA on TV (Sony Bravia LCD TV) and it displays the start-up screens such as the BIOS, Windows startup screen password but fails when the user login screen.

    The television then shows a message indicating "signal not supported.
    Adjust the PC output '.

    1 x DC-in
    1 x external monitor (this is the port that I use)
    1 x RJ-11

    Have you tested when laptop is not connected and that Vista is fully charged?
    I mean start your laptop and wait for Vista to be fully charged. Cannot connect to the TV, then use the FN + F5 key combination to have the image on the TV.

    It works correctly?

  • How to connect the Satellite Pro P100 to Hifi

    I've got Satellite Pro P100. How to connect this laptop to stereo
    It's probably easy, but what I can say... Call me stupid.

    I have head that comes out of the headphone jack, it connects to my friendly hifi.
    Ill be there is a unpleasant hissing in the background. Trying to hook up my boys in head mp3 player, and that works very well.

    Any chance of some help... Thank you

    Hello

    To my knowledge, you can connect the satellite Pro P100 to HiFi only via a cable 2 RCA Audio Y adapter. To my knowledge the laptop doesn't support the S/PDIF audio output so you only to use an analog audio port.

    You can also buy a stereo adapter with 2 x cinch sockets to connect the laptop to the stereo. This card can be plugged into the headset jack

    Check this box:
    Stereo adapter

    I think you should visit the nearest dealer of portable. It can show you the right and taken in charge of cables and adapters.

  • Loss of wireless connection on Satellite Pro L10

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro L10, with wireless capabilities built-in. I recently bought an ADSL Modem Belkin Wireless G Router. My desktop PC can connect to the internet via cable and cannot therefore have my laptop. However, when I connect to the internet via wireless connection my laptop sometimes everything stops. This isn't something to signal that I'm only about 2 feet from the router, and it is not that I can't connect to the internet, as I am on this at the moment. Is that in a few minutes, the connection will be lost and I can't seem to find what I can do about it.

    The other problem is that when I click the icon at the bottom right of the screen, the "Wireless network connection" window opens. Here, it shows the wireless network I'm trying to connect and it shows with a strong signal, but it is almost always said not 'connected '. He said never 'connected', even when I am connected to the net and surf away!

    Anyone has any ideas at all?

    It sounds a little to the Wireless LAN card is unable to obtain a valid IP address.
    These interruptions may occur for different reasons.
    But especially the new version of the driver Wlan and/or Bios should help resolve these interruptions.

    What card Wlan do you use?
    If you are using the Intel Wlan card you can also visit the Intel Web site to download the most recent version of the WLan driver.
    Please also compare the BIOS version available on the Tosh site with the version preinstalled on your laptop.

    Wlan card properties contain some useful options that could improve the quality of the connection. Energy saving options should also be required to check other functions in the tab advanced and disabled.

  • Cannot start my Satellite Pro C70-A-159

    Hello

    My laptop Satellite Pro is only a few months, all of a sudden it stopped. And it does not turn.
    No display after you press the power button. Machine is fully charged. Charger is fine. Machine fell still warm after passing on. Is - this problem of fan?

    I bought from the United Kingdom. But currently now out of the country. May claim the guarantee. Is it possible to get the international warranty?
    Thank you

    Unplug the power plug, remove the battery and press the power button for 20 seconds. After having done that connect the power supply only and try to restart your laptop.

    What happens when you do this?
    Is there a reaction?

    This may be a virus, because the new installation of the OS would erase the entire HARD disk and you'd get a clean OS.
    Maybe it's a hardware problem if it would be a HDD issue then you cannot start the operating system of the s. You would only see an error message that OS has not been found.

    You can check in the BIOS if the HARD drive is recognized, otherwise will need you a new HARD drive.

    The new laptops Toshiba are not equipped with recovery DVDs!
    There's a reminder installed on the laptop and it says that you must create a disk recovery first!

  • Cannot exceed on Satellite Pro L450D-12 X BIOS password screen

    A friend gave me a laptop to watch. His windows password was not recognized. She asked me to perform a password reset. I tried to get into the BIOS to change the boot order and requested a password. My friend doesn't know the BIOS password.

    Than trying to get into the BIOS, whenever I start the laptop, it always goes to BIOS password entry screen. How to start windows log on screen and he asks me the bypass BIOS password?

    The laptop model is satellite pro L450D - 12 X

    > How to start the windows log on screen and he asks me the bypass BIOS password?
    BIOS password is very important security feature and you cannot bypass so simply.
    To be honest, to discuss this topic on the public forum is pretty crazy, isn't it?

    Each notebook stolen with BIOS password would be easy to start and data would be not protected at all.

    It is unwise to chat about it. In any case, BIOS password can be removed by only authorized personnel, so contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and they will help you with this.
