• Equium M50-216: reader of CD-Rom does not work

  Hi, I have owned my PC laptop toshiba equium m50-216 for 2 months. I haven't used the drive for about 3 weeks, but it worked very well. I went to use it today and it won't work.

  When I start an orange light flashes. Then that's it, it will not eject and if I manually eject and then put a record it is not recognized. Maybe I accidentally activated a safety lock or the somets? Thank you

• Equium M50-216: cannot save or use the microphone or "phone entries

  I have an Equium M50-216, with 1 GB of RAM & Centrino 1.7 GHz processor, running XP Home.

  Without apparent reason, I am suddenly unable to use my SKYPE USB ' phone to talk. Audio output is perfect, however.

  I also tried my helmet using the jack on the front of the laptop, with the same result.

  I downloaded and installed the latest driver for the sound card, which is a Realtek AC97. I tried the test equipment of Windows, but there is no evidence of entry he built in sound recorder, audio, or in windows.
  The device driver is properly enabled and reported no problems.

  Is it a hardware problem - as it seems card works OK for output?
  Is it a Windows problem - I can achieve a reformatting the drive & re-install of XP soon - it would help?

  Hello

  As far as I understand your problem, you are not able to use the external microphone. Am I wrong?
  You mean that it's a hardware problem, hmmm I n t think so.
  To me, it looks like a wrong setting

  Please check if the microphone is activated. This should be verified in the--> sound & audio devices Control Panel.
  On the volume tab, press the Advanced button.

  In the options settings, you can switch between the playback volume controls & record.
  Please check everything!

• Re: Equium M50-216 - lines across the screen

  Hi my Equium M50-216 has lines across the screen and low who go up and down the screen.
  There is no picture it s just white.

  If I plug it into an external monitor I get a fine display on the monitor is so the screen is defective or something else?
  I think that the inverter is ok because it of bright and not dull.

  See you soon

  I agree with Luke.

  If the image on the external monitor is ok then the graphics card should be ok.
  If an FL inverter would be defective then everything would be visible, but just a little more dark and as behind a fog

  In your case, it looks like a display problem

  I think you should ask a technician for replacement laptop

• Equium M50-216 - Question about the new facility

  Hello

  Recently rescued a laptop Equium M50 of my flat mate. Was a little out of adjustment. She said that I might have as could not get on the internet and it seems to be missing some vital files.

  Managed to get the wireless working again and little removed from the trash which was on it, but there are larger issues for example. Whatever it is USB I plug it will not install as there are no drivers on the HARD drive.

  I think that it probably needs to be formatted and have Windows XP Home Edition reinstalled but I did not all discs for her and do not want to spend hundreds of new software to purchase for it. Please let me know what are my best options.

  Best regards

  Ed

  > have Windows XP Home Edition reinstalled, but I did not all discs for her
  That s confusing you reinstalled Windows XP, but why you need the laptop drives? I mean if Windows XP is already reinstalled you can start with the installation of the driver. Everything can be downloaded on the official website of Toshiba:

  Your laptop is an older model so you should look for in * Archives *.

• Replacing the drive HARD on Equium M50-216

  Hello

  I'm looking into upgrading the hard drive in my M50-216, which currently has a MK4026GAX. The player that I am most interested is the MK8032GAX. Is this a suitable replacement, that is going to work?

  A few questions:

  1. I guess it's just a case of withdrawal of the current drive, mortising the new one and start using my Toshiba restore CD? This will reinstall the Norton junk as well?

  2. assuming I have remove the current without shape, i.e. I leave it as it is, I suppose that if I find the new drive does not work I'll be able to put the former back in and it will start like nothing happened? I'm not changing any other material.

  3. it will work as a trolley suitable for the old disk: http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/ProductInfo.asp?WebProductID=414030

  4. the most important question will be affecting my current standard warranty, or assign an extension of warranty if I choose to buy a more this year?

  Thank you
  Baillie

  Old disk HARD 40 GB MK4026GAX
  New disk HARD 80 GB MK8032GAX

  The BIOS should recognize up to 100 GB HARD drive

  1.) Yes it should market. Also, it should be possible to install Norton ghost image files
  2.) Yes, it should be possible to put the old HDD and start the laptop.
  (3.) if the new HARD drive supports the IDE interface, it should be possible to use it in the external USB case
  4.) No, the upgrade of the HARD drive should t has no effect on the guarantee

• Equium M50-216 - need info on the login screen

  I had no problem with the system before, but a week ago I started to experience display problems.

  Basically, the display freezes sometimes or behaves strangely - cutting, interference, etc. This is related to move the screen - fiddling with it puts things right.

  My guess is that it is nothing more serious that a connection cable loose somewhere - because the problem does not spontaneously, but can be triggered if I move on the screen, open or close a little.

  Is there a simple way to get access to the cable connecting the Billboard of the graphics card (?)?

  Thank you very much

  Did you experience M50 laptop?
  I guess you don t have because you ask here in the forum. In this case you n t know exactly how do to disassemble the laptop and it is not very easy and very delicate!
  Using an order wrong can damage certain parts in the worst case that the display will not work.

  The warranty is valid? If yes then you shouldn't t try to disassemble the laptop by yourself, as this would negate the warranty.

  In addition, you are not 100% sure that the loose cable connection causes this problem. You guess that and in my opinion it s not enough to perform the disassembly laptop!

  I'll give you good advice; Contact a specialist of the laptop!

  In this case, you are on the right side

• Equium M50-216 wireless questions

  Hard drive reformatted a new weeks back.
  When the computer has restarted, no wireless network could be found.

  The problem seems to be the other portable wireless laptop in the household connect OK
  The wireless switch is in position 'works', but the orange light does not "lights".

  Is this a problem with the wireless driver?

  Someone at - it help him?

  Thank you

  Hello

  The wireless network card is recognized correctly in the Device Manager?
  If this isn't the case, then the WLan driver must be installed!

  Also, check if the WiFi network has been configured correctly.
  Means that you must check the type of encryption, password encryption, and firewall settings.

  Good luck

• Equium M50-216 - keyboard replacement

  Hi all

  my name is Michael and I have a question about a mobile phone 2nd hand, I bought in a charity shop, he has a problem with several of the keys that do not work. I guess that little liquid has been spilled on the keyboard.
  My question is: is it worth me trying to fix/replace the keyboard myself or take it to the local pc repair shop?

  Thanks in advance for any response

  Generally these replacements of equipment should be performed by authorized personnel, but on this old piece of hardware, you can try to do it alone, but of course on your own risk. ;)

  You have experience with this sort of thing?
  At first, I must say that the new keyboard, you can find it on eBay. It won't be so expensive.
  If you decide to do only let us know. We can help you with this.

• I need drivers for Equium M50-216

  Please help me.
  I have some problem to get my model drivers on your site. I upgraded my operating system to windows vista and the sound stops working.
  Please, what should I do?

  You can find the drivers in the ARCHIVE. So, to open the download page of Toshiba and under product type, select ARCHIVE. Problem is that your laptop is not supported for Vista, and you will not find driver sound it.

  I found the info your laptop has its Realtek ALC AC97 250 card.

  Try to find the Vista driver on the support page of Realtek. Please let me know if you have found it.

• Equium M50-216 - new HARD drive is not recognized

  After finding that my [laptop | http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=UK&DISC_MODEL=0 & ACTION = PRINT_WITH_BACK & com decided .do w .broadvision = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 113323] has a hard to die in the car, I went and bought a replacement for her. Originally, the laptop had a 40 GB IDE drive, and I thought that if I had to replace the drive, then I might as well have a higher capacity drive. So I bought a [hard drive 160 GB Samsung IDE | http://www.samsung.com/global/business/hdd/productmodel.do?type=62&subtype=67&model_cd=294#] eBay.

  Upon receipt and installation of the drive unit, I found that when I tried to open the BIOS, it would take some time to open (such as the boot device selection menu), and once it does, under the hard drive unit, it says 'none '. I tried to remove and to reinstall the drive, I have ensured that there are no jumpers on the drive and I also tried to install Ubuntu on it anyway, but the partitioning program shows nothing. If I insert the old drive, everything works fine

  As far as I know, the problem could arise because of two reasons; because I had swizzed on eBay, either because the BIOS of the laptop or the motherboard supports up to a certain capacity. I hope that it is not one of those who, as I bought this disc waited for some time for her due to slow mail and snow.

  Also, I don't know how to test a disc without having to buy some kind of adapter IDE for my main PC. Is there a way that this can be sorted?

  Edit: Considering an update of the BIOS, but struggles to find a way to do without the need to have a version of Windows there.

  Hello

  A long history but a short answer:
  Due to the IDE for your laptop, you are only able to use hard disks up to 128 GB s or let say 120 GB. The laptop has a limitation of LBA 28 bits and thus, you can use t hard drives up to a certain capacity (128 GB).

  By the way: peut t BIOS update to fix this. It s a limitation material so BIOS update will not work.

  You return the HARD drive and buy another one, e. g. 120 GB.
