• Satellite Pro P - new LCD Inverter

  I've had my laptop for about 3 years now and last week, half lower of the screen flickered for a few seconds. I never thought much of it, but in recent days, the problem has become more noticeable. I did some research autour and this isn't a rare problem, across all the notebook manufacturers.

  I've been advised to connect an external monitor to see if it sparkles in sync with the laptop, if it isn't then it's probably a LCD Inverter fault.

  No one knows how many of them would cost here in the United Kingdom, or if they are all compatible?

  Best regards

  Gavin

  Hey,.

  The exact price depends on your model of laptop and screen. Different laptops have different hardware, so there is no common converter for all screens.

  An exact answer, you can get a provider of service authorized in your country. Guys have access to all Toshiba databases so they can tell you the part number and how much it would cost.

  If you have any other questions, just after again! :)

• My laptop Dell Inspiron 5100 has started incompatible.

  My laptop Dell Inspiron 5100 has started an on again off again behavior.  If I stopped and try to restart it (by switch or auto reboot), it does not restart.  I get a metal "beep" of the machine.   If I'm persistent and try several times with the button, it can restart, but not always.  I thought it might be the start / stop switch had become sensitive to heat or was dying, but even when it is completely cold, not connected to an external power supply and since 3 + hours, it will still manifest this strangeness.  Any suggestions?   I am running Windows XP Pro and McAfee on this system.  I realize that it is an older machine, but I really like XP, and want to continue to use this set up if possible.

• Dell Inspiron 620/Vostro 260 NO Bios for AHCI

  Dell Inspiron 620/Vostro 260 NO Bios for AHCI

  Interestingly, I couldn't even update the bios without the INTEL drivers.

  Check in the Device Manager, the machine uses the ATA drivers not AHCI drivers

  AND will not install the INTEL RST drivers.

  Why is this?

  

  I tried to upgrade to the version of the Bios A04, but this made no difference.

  

  I did some research and discovered that the chipset in this system, the H61, simply does not support AHCI or RAID. There is no way to activate for a reason. :(

  Wish I had known this. The value of this system really went down the tube if you intend to launch an SSD in there.

• Tecra M9 - reader of fingerprints and BIOS password

  Aloha
  I want to disable the fingerprint reader and bios password at startup of the computer.
  I already uninstalled upek protector suite ql 5.4.0.2934, but at the start, I'm still prompted to slide my finger.
  I've seen and followed the instructions in "toshiba passes: definition and suppression (BIOS passwords, supervisor and Windows)", but I still have to enter my password to start the computer.
  What should I do?
  Mahalo

  In the field "Enter new password" press only in order to remove the old drive HARD password... Repeat this in the field "confirmation"...
  Then he must change the password for HARD drive status to "unregistered".
  After that, save the BIOS changes and exit the BIOS.

• Difference between BIOS version 1.40 - win and BIOS 1.40 - trad

  What is the difference between version 1.40 - win and BIOS 1.40 - BIOS trad?

  Win version is the version that we can and must be installed when Windows is running. It runs as an application.

  Traditional version is the version that must be installed using the floppy or USB key.

  Interesting paper on updates to the BIOS, which you can find on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9502M10000R01.htm

• Satellite Pro U300: Low resolution on external LCD screen and a station

  I've got Satellite Pro U300 and LCD HP1907v and PA3542E-2PRP - docking station.

  When I connect external LCD for laptop - resolution is OK (1440 x 900). But when I connect the external LCD display in a docking station - the resolution is lower(), I can't change it, and I don't have some display options under Fn + F5 (that I had when I passed this lcd directly to the laptop).

  Help me find a solution, please!

  Yes. Latest Dynadock software must be installed.
  I checked the hardware specifications of the dynadock with DVI-d port and DVI supports a maximum external resolution UXGA (1,600 x 1,200) 24-bit.

• Satellite Pro A200 - need LCD bezel and cover

• Satellite P10 554: broken inverter and market

  Dear Group,

  in recent weeks, I have massive probs with my p10 554 (2 years +).
  The converter to display is broken and the display for the most part remains dark. No big problems so far, as the laptop is my secondary computer, not connected to a monitor. But: since this inverter quit working properly, I noticed, that the machine has problems starting...

  By pressing the button WE're now more often without any effect on the system, ways, it feeds on. DC current, battery and leds are working properly, the two are lit in green, the battery is fully charged and DC is good.

  I followed a little guide assistance procedures, but none of them has fixed the problem.

  Sometimes - I don't see any chronological rule in this behavior - the power on works, but when I pass the laptop turned off later, I couldn't immediately turn it back to the.

  Q: has the inverter broken some influence on the market, and if so, how can I bypass it? Or I have two problems here (a circuit feeding broke apart a broken inverter) and need to have some repair teacher.?

  Thanks for any advice,
  FIU

  Hello

  a broken inverter should not have any influence on turn on/off the laptop.
  This problem can have several causes. So I think the best way would be to leave the machine to be checked by a service technician.
  And by the way, you can only get a new inverter of a service partner.

  Good bye

• Satellite Pro A100 - CD/DVD drive is not listed in the Manager of peripherals and BIOS

  Can Hi anyone tell me what is wrong with this laptop?

  The problem is im using my DVD - ROM drive and it stops working. I went into Device Manager and it wasn't there and it was not in my list of drives. I went and checked the BIOS, it is not listed there either and the BIOS pick up all get them is check the cable or the conection.

  Would be grateful if some knows what happened or if my hard drive is gone.

  Thank you

  Hello

  If the CD/DVD drive is not listed in the Device Manager and BIOS, it seems to be defective and must be replaced.
  What do you think about this?

  You can exchange the car yourself. Check for a compatible CD/DVD Player user manual or go to an authorized service provider. Technicians can order a new drive to swap.

  Sorry, but if the drive is not listed in the BIOS seems to be defective.

  Good bye

• CD/DVD drive, it is not supported by Windows XP and Bios

  I bought a new Mat * un Panasonic cd/dvd player.
  It only works on Windows 2000, it is not supported by Windows XP and Bios, so I can't start with.

  Could you please provide some information about yourself (name) for laptop?
  Did you buy this player or that player supplied with the notebook?

  If the player is not berecognised by the BIOS, then in my opinion, the drive supports bad master / slave / parameters c - salt.
  You should know that not all drives are compatible.

  Cannot change settings as the dose of disc supports not no rider, but only the firmware.

• 10 Windows and BIOS OEM different keys product key

  Recently, I upgraded my Lenovo Windows Windows 8.1 10 PC. For Windows PC 8.1 windows OS product key is embedded in the BIOS. After the upgrade the OS of Windows 10 of Windows 8.1, I compared the product key Windows 10 and BIOS OEM key and what I have discovered, is that the two are different. I expect that the two keys will be the same. Can someone tell me why the keys are different? What kind of question? Contact Microsoft for the same thing?

  They must be different. You have upgraded a system 8.1 Windows system Windows 10. As part of this process, a new key for Windows 10 is generated and assigned to your system. This is as expected and by design. No need to contact Microsoft.

• Satellite P200 (PSPB6E) - screen LCD cleaning and new display drivers

  I have P200 almost 2 years (which means the end of a guarantee for me soon) and after about a year, bad pixels began to appear. I do not know exactly if all (it's more than 10 now) are in fact the bad pixels. Compared to other laptops Toshiba, I have always had lower edge of the frame of the screen a little loose (so he leans a little after I push in the middle of it and a lot of dust and dirt continues to fall below) and there was a time where I have even a piece of hair between the transparent cover of the lcd screen and the Panel itself (after a certain time it fell under the bezel by itself).

  I would like to ask, if it is possible to remove the transparent cover of the screen so I can clean from inside?

  I want to avoid a scenario, when a service provider told me that there is an insufficient number (according to the ISO standard) bad pixels for repair under warranty, so all that waiting to get the laptop to and return service was actually for nothing.

  Also, is there somewhere a new VGA driver for this laptop? There Radeon HD2600 and the latest driver download from Toshiba site is July 22, 2008. I also tried ATI.com but it's as if HD2600 was no model ATI. The standard Catalyst drivers for versions of office do not work and there is no HD2600 specialized drivers, except those of Toshiba. I think that this will become a problem even more acute when Windows Seven will be put in place and with a lot of users is no longer manufactured portable (and many of them ignored Vista if their material has enabled), will seriously consider trying the new OS and there is no VGA compatible driver for her, because some Toshiba forgets to update them and ATI seems that they don't care.

  Thanks in advance for any help with these.

  Hello!

  To be honest right now I n do what cover you average, but normally it s not necessary to clean the LCD from the inside.
  Also it of a bit more difficult to remove the cover plastic around the LCD and you really must pay attention to not destroy as this plastic is very sensitive.
  In my opinion the best way would be if you go to an ASP. For the moment, your laptop is still under warranty so that you should use to get a free repair of laptop. With more than 10 pixels dead, you should get a new view.

  On the Toshiba site, you can find the nearest authorized service provider:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported downloads & => find an authorized service provider

  On the display driver: why do you need a new? I always use the drivers of Toshiba and never had a problem.
  What you can do is to get a cell phone which is equipped with the same graphic card. Maybe on other cell phones, a newer driver has been released yet.

  Good bye

• mouse control, LCD Brightness and sound volume

  Hi, I am designing a VI that allows people with disabilities (with no hands) to use the PC-control with the mouse, the brightness of the LCD screen and the sound volume through several sensors. I found how to do to control the mouse but still cannot find how to control the brightness (using setdevicegammaramp) or volume (using waveoutsetvolume). can someone help me with these two functions please?

  Try the attached VI. I don't know if it will work for your configuration, since other factors are involved in the brightness setting, such as the controls of the monitor and video card settings.
