• Equium L20-198: keyboard forgets to put the letters here and there

  My laptop Toshiba Equium L20-198 plays up. The keyboard sometimes seems to be a bit lazy and forgets to put the letters here and here. It seems to be worse when you type faster; is this a driver problem? If yes where can I update keyboard drivers?

  There seems to be none on the toshiba site. If it is not a driver issue - what is the problem?

  Any ideas anyone?

  Don t think that this issue was caused by a defective keyboard driver.
  I read some of the comments in this forum on similar keyboard problems on different laptops and especially BIOS update has solved a similar question.
  I recommend to check and compare the version of the BIOS of your laptop computer with the version on the Toshiba page.
  If it s a newer version then try to update the BIOS, but be careful!
  Don't forget to use the good BIOS and the proper procedure because wrong BIOS can damage the motherboard.

• Upgrade Equium L20-198

  Hello everyone, I am new to this forum and I have a question please.

  I have a laptop Equium L20 - 198 people aged but very useful, which becomes very, very slow. I think to double the RAM to 512 MB and installation of a drive Flash (SSD). Did anyone done this before? No idea if there is a compatible SSD available and where I could buy one?

  Thanks in advance.

  I don't have this model of laptop old but RAM upgrade is not a big deal. You can put an another 512 MB of RAM. Compatible RAM has PA3412U - 1 M 51 part number.

  In General, you can put 1 GB of RAM, because you can improve up to 2 GB of RAM. Unfortunately I do not know which RAM is compatible. It must be DDR2 400/533 MHz RAM.

  I have found no info on HARD drive upgrade. Is original HDD SATA or IDE?

• Equium L20-198: error 0271 check date and time settings.

  My apologies if this appears twice, I tried to change and I somehow lost my thread.

  Hi people.

  For awhile, I had problems with my laptop. Toshiba Equium L20-198.

  If I unplug the network at any time, when I re - connect and start the computer, I get two warnings.

  Date and time settings error 0271 check.

  WARNING 0251 system cmos checksum bad default configuration used

  About 6 months ago we replaced the CMOS battery, while we struggled to find a brand new ML1220EI2 Nickel hydrogen 3V 14mAh, we had to go for a "used" quality one.

  The problem persists and I now also get this message every time that I reboot rather put into hibernation.

  Yes, the computer is a little more than 5 years and hit a little, but it is absolutely perfect in all other ways - with one exception - the main battery is completely dead. If the network becomes disconnected, I make you stop in about 3 minutes. :(

  Is it possible that the CMOS battery charge the main battery and this is my problem? I did a little research on Google and found a similar question and an answer on a Dell forum where someone has stated that the CMOS takes his food on the main battery. Would this be the case with my Equium and could buy a new battery solve my problem? I obvioiusly don't want to spend £30 + for it will not help, any response would be appreciated.

  Thank you.

  > Is it possible that the CMOS battery charge the main battery and this is my problem?
  Well, the CMOS battery can be charged with AC adapter but the laptop must be turned on for about 18 to 20 hours.
  It s not I known if battery CMOS takes the power of the main battery
  Usually the CMOS battery should always charge in work and when the laptop is plugged in
  So, theoretically the main battery has no influence on the CMOS battery.

  I think it might be a mobo problem, I think this could be a reason for it

  By the way; in most cases the CMOS battery is not removable... so I wonder how did you repalce this CMOS battery...

• TOSHIBA Power Saver Equium L20-198

  Hello

  I have an Equium L20-198. When I click on the toshiba power saver icon in the Control Panel, it says "cannot open as the toshiba power saver does not work, go to power options, toshiba power saver, select power schema list box in page scheme of power." But toshiba power saver is already selected in the schema of power section. I'm confused.

  What is an ati graphics accelerator? It seems that every time I turn on my computer. It is said that an ati Graphics Accelerator can use a TV to my computer display. It is recommended to use a TV to display my computer, I'll have to make sure your TV display is enabled, if I do not use the TV to display my computer, I have disable for optimal performance (higher discount rate). What should I do?

  Post edited by: sa008

  Hello

  I wonder about your message
  Why?
  because the Toshiba Power Saver was not preinstalled on Equium L20.
  A Toshiba power saver doesn t exist for the L20 series!
  There is nothing on the page of the Toshiba driver too

  Therefore, the GST will not work on this laptop!

• Equium L20-198: Motorola ROKR as modem GPRS for laptop?

  Hi, can someone help me.
  I have paired my Motorola ROKR E1 with my Equium L20-198 with a Bluetooth dongle and now I would like to use the GPRS service for internet connection.
  I can do this, or what I need to use a modem connection?

  Also how can I prevent IE try to dialup connection when I use my LAN wireless at home?

  Thanks a lot for your help
  Shane

  Hello

  Dial-up connection will definitely work. I tried several times.

  This question is very strange for me, but if you open it and when producing Connect message or not click on connect and after that you can use with a LAN or WLAN connection. He never ask you this again once (in my case).

  Good bye

• Re: Equium L20-198 - in Device Manager unknown devices

  Hello
  I have a PSL2ZE Equium L20-198.

  I have trouble with the drivers provided by this site everytime I try to install the driver it stops telling me that the chipset is not supported by the program, so I have these unknown devices left to solve

  Ethernet controller
  modem PCI
  SM bs controller
  controller of SB
  VGA controller

  And even if it is a wireless switch (and it works IE turns the light on). I have no software or the details of the installed wireless (standard) whatever it is!
  Not there at - it no utility driver like all the drivers in one of toshiba!

  Thanks to anyone who repiles in advance as this is driving me crazy!

  Hello

  Do you have what OS installed on your Equium L20?

  Normally, you can download all the drivers on the Toshiba site. Did you check that?

  I had a similar error message if I tried to install a new driver from chipset, but it worked if I installed the driver in the Device Manager with the Advanced installation order.

• Equium l20-198: what battery model is compatible

  Having bought just an Equium l20 - 198 I'm horrified to find that the battery (2000 mAh) dies in less than an hour. It's quite desperate and it is almost impossible to get a decent job done use away from a power outlet.

  I have yet to find a 'battery' web site which mentions the Equium: Satellite, Tecra, Portege, Qosmio, Dynabook, but never Equium - why? I can't find any information on what other reasonable quality (> 4000 mAh) battery is compatible with this model.

  Any suggestions please?

  Hi Rockrat

  As you know that each laptop producer a lot of different series laptop. This is due to a different use. Portege and Tecra notebooks are the industry and these books are mostly bought by business people who need these notebooks to traverse. For these business line books, you will find different batteries. Laptops satellite and satellite are cheaper models for everyday use, and there is no need for batteries of large capacity.

  Other models like the Qosmio is multimedia unit and it is mainly used to connected devices home TV and other entertainment and it must be connected to the power adapter because of high energy consumption. I hope you understand this and in my opinion, this is the reason why you aren't able to find the battery high capacity for your computer satellite phone.

• Equium L20-198: Question about BIOS and output s-video

  I seem to have two problems with it and that's when I put the bios password on above it on the screen is rubbish, scrammble symbols. Also is it supposd to come with s-video output, but it is a black plastic in place place

  Hello

  I certainly know that the S-video port is not available on all models Equium L20. Please check the specifications of the laptop even though I think that your model should have S-video port. Please contact your local dealer and talk with them about it.

  Your device has a valid warranty and if you think that there is a technical problem, contact the Service partner and explain the problem. Please don t make some BIOS update experiences if you are not familiar with this procedure.

• Equium L20-197 to control the Volume

  HI peeps,

  I have a problem with my laptop Equium L20-197 of comrades. When it boots into windows, you get a warning message indicating the canoe access volume control. There is no volume control icon in the taskbar, and I also noticed that in the properties of the sound device and Audio, it says that there is no audio device.

  In the Manager devices, section controller audio, video, and game audio codec, audio drivers, legacy video capture, devices, legacy multimedia control devices and video codecs all say they work properly.

  I tried the fix windows help for no volume control which is to extend the control files of the disk volume to your Windows Setup incase windows, the file is damaged or missing.
  I tried a fresh install of windows.
  None of these helped with the same warning as the result every time.

  It is true that the audio chip on the motherboard is dead or is there maybe another solution to the problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks in adavance peeps :)

  You said you tried to reinstall fresh Windows operating system.
  So can ask now; have you used the Toshiba Recovery CD or did you use the original MS XP CD?

  I would have preferred using the Toshiba Recovery CD because all the necessary drivers, tools, and utilities are already preinstalled
  You can use the recovery CD to reset the phone to factory settings!
  The configuration should work without any serious problem!

  In my opinion, it's an easy way to set up the laptop. The whole process would take about 10 minutes.

• How to recover a database after you add a data since the last file backup.

  How to recover a database after you add a data file to a tablspace existing since the last user managed backup.
  
  PS: I am aware that the user managed backups are not used and RMAN is used these days.

  At the stage of the mount: select name from v$ datafile;
  The last entry indicates a file named /xxx/xxx/.../UNNAMEDXXX.dbf

  Now

  ALTER database create datafile ' / xxx/xxx/.../UNNAMEDXXX.dbf' as 'path_where_you_want_to_add_the_datafile ';

  The name of the data file must match the name that added in production

  This will create a data file to the required location.

  Once the file has been created, you can continue with recovery.

• Equium L20 - 198 expand the RAM

  Equium L20 daughter - 198 has the factory supplied 512 MB RAM installed 2rx16 PC2. I want to expand the memory to see if it improves performance with programs like MSN which seem to be grinding to a halt and freeze enough frequently.

• I can not burn anything on my Equium L20-198

  I had a big problem with my cd drive, as my laptop is still on warranty people from pc world took my phone to fix it now it reads all CDs except a clear. When I put cd with nothing on I got a message D: / is not accessible. incorrect function. When I treing to burn something there No recorder of message. In Device Manager, it reads my drive and works correctly. I n want to send my laptop for then for another week or two because they don know what they are doing I thing.

  Help

  Hi, when you say that it reads all CDs except clear I assume you mean money back CD?
  First, make sure you that you burn CD - r or CD - RW and DVD not the reason because it's XP does not directly support drag and drop files on the DVD player. To burn DVDs requires the use of the 3rd party software like Nero or the software provided by Toshiba on CD.
