Monitor (Suspecting software, no hardware isssue) IMG

Hello

I have two laptops Toshiba (Qosmio X 300, Satellite P100) and they give me both the same question: dim exceptionally screens. I tried the fn keys and the BIOS settings, but none of that seems to touch the screen.

I did some research on the subject, and when they hear unusually dull screen immediately many people believe it's a backlight broken, but I'll explain why I don't think that this is the case.

I got the Qosmio, approximately two weeks, settled with Windows Vista 64-bit.
This was not acceptable to my client, so I installed windows XP on it instead.
So the thing I want to mention here is that the screen was bright so only on Vista, then it was brilliant for about a week in XP, it's now suddenly dim, and no software seems to be able to adapt. (I tried the Nvidia settings, settings of power, Bios settings, FN keys) The shortened toshiba program is installed.

My Satellite P100 is also running Windows XP (sp2 or maybe 3) and with this one, there is a very similar issue. The screen is dull, he was brilliant, and no software seems to be able to influence it.

Here is my series:

Hello

What happens if you would go back to the Vista (pre-installed by Toshiba)?
Have you checked if the brightness of the screen could return to the normal level?
I think that you should do this because it s really strange question

I mean the brightness of the screen could be diminished and augmented by using the FN + F6 or FN + F7 keys. Screen brightness could change, too, if you would set another value in the Toshiba Power Saver. But as far as I know there is no drivers Win XP for Qosmio X 300 and so you can't use the energy for change of brightness screen saver.

But there are drivers XP for Satellite P100 then maybe you'd be able to use the FN key combination in order to increase the brightness of the display.

    Hi Anna_753,

    Usually, you would receive messages from any program if it is impossible to access the port.

    If you want to check if the port is accessible, then you will need to check the firewall settings.

    Hi Cynthia,.

    1 have you ever done any hardware or software changes to the PC?

    2. What is the brand and model of the PC?

    3. What is the full error you get when you try to evaluate the computer?

    Audit of the statues of the device in the Device Manager.
    a. click the Start button, type devmgmt.msc and press ENTER.
    b. check for any exclaimation mark and the status of the devices.

    Follow these methods.

    I suggest you to first run the resolution of performance problems.

    Method 1: Open the resolution of Performance problems

  • Black monitor and remains black - hardware or software issue?


    I have already suggested you.

    I never had to install a driver of monitor, video projector (Spotlight presentation), HDTV or LCD display. LCD screens are sometimes delivered with driver discs, but the views are also not Plug Play devices. This is why the operating system recognizes and installs the drivers as required.

  • Satellite A100 - configuration of the monitor without software

    I need help!

    I almost tried to configure my monitor, but I don't understand.
    I am a passionate photographer, that's why I need to make a configuration of my monitor to get best results when my photos are printed.

    Does anyone know how to change the color and contrast of my monitor?
    I know there is some kind of software to make it easier, but I don't have the money to purchase some.

    Is there no alternative to the configuration without any type of software?

    Thanks a lot for your help! :-)

  • My printing problem is related to software or hardware?

    This is an important distinction to make because, in general, they require two different courses of action.  You can save yourself a lot of time ensuring that you know what type of problem you are having.  Investigation on the front can allow you to focus on the exact problem.

    A printer that stops printing from the computer of treatment might have a hardware or software problem.  Software problems when a printer is not physically able to print will not lead to success.

    The order is important?

    Yes.  Any time, you cannot print, you must exclude the material first.  If you decide that you have the hardware and software problems, you must correct the firsthardware problem.

    How do you decide?

    Typical examples of hardware problems:

    • The printer (ordered the printer) status report or a photocopy out empty, low or poor quality.
    • Printer does not respond when trying to photocopy
    • Printer recognizes photocopy request, but no paper is pulled into the printer.
    • In general paper jams.  Sometimes, an update of the firmware can help them.
    • Unable to send a fax directly from the printer.
    • Some colors on paper, but not others.
    • Problems with the ADF Document (CAD) of the power supply.  Sometimes, an update of the firmware can help them.
    • Default alignment.

    Examples of software problems:

    • Unable to send a print job to the printer from the computer, but a copy can be made.
    • Impossible to send a fax from the computer, but a fax can be sent directly from the printer.
    • Can not sweep, but can make a photocopy.

  • Limitation of 200GB SDHC - this is a software or hardware limitation?

    I picked up a good deal of a recently SDHC card that works well for me - this is a card of 128GB.

    From the same provider, I can also get a card of 512 GB for a similar price.

    Issues related to the:

    (1) the limit of 200 GB on SDHC cards is a physical limitation or a software limitation? Are there opportunities for a future update to bring us beyond 200 GB on the Z5 range?

    (2) if the Z5 can't handle the 512 GB, that should be the case now, it would be possible to format such a card to 200 GB?

    See you soon.

    Hi @chrisdbarnett,

    Welcome to the community.

    As I understand it, the limitation is a combination of the two. On the software side of things the WBS format has limits, and on the hardware side, the devices have limited processing power and RAM.

    If you insert a 512 GB SD card in the Z5, theoretically (I have not personally tested) it should always be able to access the card, however, you will not be able to store more than 200 GB.

    Although it is possible to increase the theoretical limit with a firmware update, it is highly unlikely that it will do more that probably cause some performance issues with the phone.

  • Migration of the iscsi initiator software to hardware initiator on 2012 Hyper-v cluster.

    Hello

    We have 10 blades x M620 with Broadcom 10gig 57810 M1000e CMC card dedicated for iSCSI Equallogic PS 6110 San.

    Currently software used on cluster hyper-v Windows 2012 connect SAN PS6110 iscsi initiator.

    150 VMS are in production on 15 CSVs.

    We want to change the initiator of the software to the hardware on all our existing blades without CSV output.

    Is it possible on hyper-v cluster 2012 to have 5 blades with initiator software and remaining 5 blades with hardware initiator with same CSV cluster?

    If coexistence of initiator software and material as possible through hosting then I can apply this change a bit on our 10 blades without cluster downtime.

    Hello

    What version of FW EQL do you use?

    Yes, it is possible, however a couple of updates warn first.

    1.) install the latest firmware / boot code and driver for Broadcom cards.

    2.) put the node into maint mode then you can disconnect the SW iSCSI provenance and sign in using the HW iSCSI adapter.

    3.) do not try to do it with an active node / online.

    The advantage of the HW iSCSI adapter reduces the CPU Overload, if you are maxing out the CPU not now, do not expect a large increase in performance after HW iSCSI card.
