Laptop Tecra 8000 - display with almost ZERO light

Hi all
I have a problem with the brightness settings for my Tecra 8000.
I lowered the brightness to the minimum values, but now I'm not able to down to a level that is "visible."

Thanks for any advice you might have... it's just frustrating!

Hello

Refer to the manuals of use s. You can find how to adjust the brightness of the display to a lower or higher level.

Also check the power sleep settings. On the Toshiba power extensions tab, you can find power schema Extension settings. Here, you can set different levels of brightness LCD.

Good bye

  • Tecra 8000: Display driver

    Hi all, I hope someone can help with my problem. I have a Tecra 8000 and just reformat and installed Windows 98 Second edition, the problem is that I have a small window in the middle of the screen with a black border completely round. I don't have the original disks that came with it and said that I need to install the display driver, as I can change the resolution, is does anyone know where I can download this driver from, or can someone provide me with it. I tried the download from toshiba site, but its not available.
    I also tried to change the resolution, but because there is only the installed base driver I can't change it. If anyone can help.
    Thank you

    Hello Mick

    The problem is that this device is not supported for W98SE and that is a reason why you can not find a driver on the Toshiba site. The graphics card in your unit is NeoMagic NM2200 (MagicMedia 256av).

    Please check on the net if you can find a driver on the site of producer of graphics card. There is no guarantee that it will work, but I'm sure that there should be no problem. Please also check the BIOS settings if there is an option called display stretching or something like that. If so he set to active.

  • Tecra 8000 - TV on WXP

    Does anyone know what I should do to make it work on the laptop Tecra 8000 TV connection output? I have Win XP OS installed.

    When I connect the video cable, the TV screen is all black. I can connect my desktop PC to TV the same way and it works. The laptop has Magic Media 256AV video card. I thought that maybe the problem was with the driver, but I can find them only for Win 98.
    Thanks for your help.

    AFAIK this Tecra older is not delivered with WXP which means that you use your own installation of the OS. In this case check the graphics card setting to activate the TV option.

    It seems that Toshiba doesn't support WXP for this device. Try to find the driver WXP on the card manufacturer download page.

  • Need info on RAM for a TECRA 8000

    I'm looking for a bit of RAM for my old laptop Tecra 8000 PII 300 model n PAT800E-B94A-GR.

    Can I use 256 MB or larger? What is important to look for? I have no much experience in computer hardware.

    Who has an idea?

    Thx for all the help of the Germany Thomas

    Hello

    I found some interesting info on this good old classic. Your Tecra can handle with max 256 MB of RAM. Tecra 8000 has two memory slots, and you can use two 128 MB modules.

    Module 128 MB compatible is with PA2062U part number.

  • Tecra 8000 - installation of update of the BIOS & XP or ME?

    I got the task of sorting of a s laptop Tecra 8000 a friend who is completely riddled with spyware and viruses. After killing most of the infections I backed up what I have to and decided the best course of action is a reconstruction of the BONE.

    I don't know what operating system to suggest that it installs. Will install and make ME use Win98 drivers or if this is not recommended (I have no experience with ME)?
    XP would be a better choice with its own pilots (reading the posts on here that SP2 causes slowdowns well)?
    Either the OS above with a Bios Update will be necessary? If so the update of the Bios from 9, 30-trad does not require a 500 MHz + processor? The Bios will tell me the CPU speed?
    I found information on how to install the updates to the Bios; I just check that I can install the 9.30 - trad on a Tecra 8000 with a processor more low spec?

    Thank you very much
    JBW

    I installed the trad 9.30 on my tecra 8000 233 mhz without problem. European downloads have the 500 mhz different bios updates voor and lower. The trad version is for lower versions.
    The American downloadsite have only 1 bios, the 9: 30 for all machines.
    It confused me, so I took the trad 9.30 which is safe for all machines under 500 mhz.

    Good luck... not to mention that I installed winxp pro on it and it runs smooth, I only dissabeld a large number of services that run in the background that wheren can't used to free the memory.

  • HARD on my Tecra 8000 P11 drive failure

    Hello

    I hope someone can help,
    I have an old tecra 8000 P11 and the HARD drive failed, I tried re starting from the cd but says disc hard is not recognized or does not. any ideas?
    Can someone point me in the direction of a compatible HARD drive replacement or original.

    Thank you

    Chrisp

    Hello

    This is an older unit and it is not easy to give you accurate information but I found one that can be useful for you. Obviously, Tecra 8000 comes with different HARD drive capacities and the largest is 14FR. I don? t know which one you have now, but you should not use the HARD drive with too much capacity because it won't be recognized without doubt. I recommend you check eBay because there you can buy an and it won't cost much.

  • Need help installing a Tecra 8000 wireless

    I just bought the wife an old laptop tecra 8000 and like to run wifi on it, I bought a d-link router and a d-link usb adapter, but he said I would impose a usb high speed and it n, t, raise the router a pcmia card would work better, also can anyone suggest a modem/router and card that works on it, any help is appreciated...

    Hello

    The Tecra 8000 supports only USB 1.1 standard.
    Are high speed USB 2.0 ports
    Many USB devices are designed only for USB 2.0 and I guess that your USB WLan adapter also supports the 2.0 standard.

    The PCMCIA should work better. There is no standard limitations as on the USB ports.

  • Tecra 8000: Cannot start - Message "Insert disc in the drive system" lights

    I have a Tecra 8000, I've not used for about two months. Now when I try to start the "Disk system to insert in the drive" message on the display. I tried three disks in the system, but they have not been accepted and the same message appears. I visited in the 'setup' and changed priorities and tried to floppy, CD-ROM, HARD disk drive, and the same message every time. Is it possible that the internal battery "backup" is completely flat?

    Hello

    Well, I'm not sure about your suggestion of the bios battery. Usually, you will see an error massage low battery BIOS or CMOS battery low.
    Well, but if the battery is low, so all settings are disabled and the BIOS can't save the changes.
    It's not easy to say what the problem is. If there is something wrong with the material if you ask ASP for help.

  • Tecra 8000: No memory available to connect with area map PC

    I have a Tecra 8000 running Win98 SE and use a card PCMCIA 3Com for my Internet connection. I was troubleshooting my computer on another issue and in the process disabled Cardbus PCMCIA Toshiba ToPIC controllers. After you have enabled these again once I am more able to communicate with the PC card and so unable to connect to the Internet.

    Card troubleshooting agent PC States: "Windows is not able to identify or use the inserted PC card device because there is no available memory area to connect with this device. You need to do an area memory available before this device can be used. Check the CONFIGURATION of your computer. A memory manager that is excluding the regions of superior memory between A000 and FFFF in the SYS file '.

    My Cardbus controllers are defined as follows:
    1 memory range - 0c 000000 - 0C000FFF
    2 memory range - 001000 0c - 0C001FFF

    My PC Card (PCMCIA) properties are as follows:

    When I run the Diagnostics on the Modem does not respond to the exception of the following:

    "' Open Comm: cannot open port"

    Any help or advice will be appreciated.

    Have you tried to uninstall the Cardbus drivers? Not sure about the location in Win98 (in XP it is in Device Manager), go to "PCMCIA adapters" and uninstall all entries in controller.

    Reboot and Win98 will perform his routine "new hardware found". This is going to re - install drivers and with a bit of luck should solve your problem.

  • Tecra 8000 with Win2k - how to start in DOS?

    What I want to do is to create an image of the current operating system partition with Ghost 2003 BACK utility loaded on a CD instead of a floppy.

    I have an old Tecra 8000 borrowed my gal friend. It has Win2k Pro installed.
    After d/ing a pdf of the manual, it seems he came originally with Win98 installed.
    The manual says to use the diskette "Companion" to enter the BACK.
    The diskette only d/l that I can find is for Win 98/Win98se.

    So, my questions:
    1. the diskette of Win98 works with Win2k?
    2. preferably, how can I open a CD with BACK before the start of the OS?
    I can't enter startup. But this does not allow me to access the CD-ROM drive.

    I hope it's an easy process that I am too blind to see.
    THX

    Two weeks ago, that I created the image using a program Norton Ghost 2003.
    I created a CD image and Ghost was asked to create a floppy disk back.
    I've never used this disc because I don t have a floppy drive, but I guess you can use this disk to boot from them and access to the ghost CD.
