PC crashing with TOSHIBA USB Hybrid Tv Tuner

I have recentlly bought a USB tv tuner hybrid Toshiba. I have connected the device to my laptop before installing the software (which must have read the manual...). However, after the cancellation of the device installation wizard I installed the software and plugged the unit... the BONE has found the new device with the following notification of the ball: "USB tv tuner hybrid found (without firmware)" and a moment later my pc crashed with a blue screen and then stop. I tried to re install the software, update the software (savvy tv 2.0) and nothing happened. My laptop kept crashing the same way... I called Toshiba technicians, suggest that i uograde firmware of the laptop... (? maybe they mean the motherboard BIOS? who knows...?).

The laptop is not a Toshiba. However, it meets the minimum requirements. My OS is Windows XP SP2, my graphics card is ATI Mobility Radeon 1600 and my USB ports work fine with everything. I use an external display instead of the laptop screen (don't know if its relevant...)

Any help is welcome because I am this close to return to the where I bought this product and request a refund.

Thank you.

Hello

I have USB DVB - T TV tuner and I checked with WXP and Vista. Works well. I don't know what operating system you are using, but maybe you need to download the latest version 2.0 of the Toshiba download page.

    Hello Luca

    Please don't be crazy about me, but you have to understand that maybe it's not possible to use the material in any desired combination. This product is designed for all the cell phones (not only for units with WMCE. Because of this manufacturer is it comes with own software.

    As you can see, it also works with WMCE and also digital. In my opinion it's the big thing. By the Way: AFAIK WMCE supports analog and digital TV by use of the antenna). Try Please also check some support WMCE or even forum WMCE site.

  • Problem with Toshiba USB DVB - T TV tuner

    Hello

    My Toshiba USB DVB - T TV tuner worked perfectly for the last year when I was in Italy. Now, I'm in France and when I run the Auto search, I find not all channels. I uninstalled Savvy TV and downloaded the new version of the site Web of Toshiba and installed Savvy TV again. Then just after opening it, I see the names of all the Italian channels, I used to watch (although now I can't watch them, only I can see the name of the channels).

    Hello

    I have old Toshiba USB TV DVB tuner PX1211E-1TVD and I used it in recent years with WXP only (also of old Savvy TV software.
    Now I have Vista preinstalled Satellite P200 and I now use it with Vista.

    When you put the USB in USB port Vista tuner will detect the new hardware, but won't be able to install it correctly. I can't remember how it worked but Vista offered me the opportunity to search for drivers online. I clicked on OK and after that short time Vista gave me a link to download driver. After several minutes, I was able to download and install the Vista driver.

    After reboot, I installed the Savvy TV software and TV tuner is now recognized correctly.

    I can watch DVB TV now.

    Why you can t find a driver? What do you think could be the reason for this? Is it really so strange?

    Let me give you a little tip: Windows 7 is not yet on the market and so there is no drivers for Windows 7 available. All that s!

    Resolve a problem with a USB driver

    You have received this message because your universal serial (USB) bus driver caused a stop error, also known as a blue screen error. This error means that the computer has stopped abruptly to protect against potential corruption of data or loss.

    What is a driver?

    A driver is software that allows your computer to communicate with hardware or devices. Without drivers, the hardware you connect to your computer (for example, a video card or a webcam) may not work properly.

    Steps to work around this problem

    Warning
    These measures are intended to solve a specific problem, but could do so by temporarily disabling or removing some features on your computer.

    1. Try to remove newly added USB devices

      If this issue occurs after adding a USB hub or other USB device, consider removing to see if the problem goes away. If this resolves the problem, contact the manufacturer of the device for the updates or other recommendations.

    2. Do not disconnect USB devices while the computer is to stop or go to sleep

    This problem is known to occur when USB devices are disconnected when the computer is trying to stop or switch mode to 'sleep'. This is common with cell phones, especially those with a docking station, as docking station can act as a USB hub. The frequency of this problem could be reduced by allowing your computer to completely close or completely in sleep mode before detached from its docking station or unplug it or the docking station USB devices.

    If you know which USB device is causing the problem

    It may be possible to prevent the Blue error screen by choosing the option remove the device safely in the Notification area, before putting your computer into sleep or Hibernate mode.

    1. In the system tray, click the icon to remove the device , select the USB device that you think that the origin of the problem and then click OK.

    2. Do not physically remove the USB device.

    3. Perform the action which resulted in the Blue error screen, so that was taken the functioning of your computer after the mode standby, hibernation, or, in the case of laptops, close the laptop computer or place it in a docking station.

      1. If the Blue error screen persists, it is likely that the problem is with another USB device. Try this procedure using other USB devices until you find that at the origin of the problem.

  • If the Blue error screen disappeared, you have probably identified the device causing the problem. Contact the manufacturer of the device for more information on how to solve this problem, or use the option to remove the device safely to work around him.

  • Note
    Depending on the manufacturer and model, some USB devices will become available automatically when you resume using your computer. Others will require that first disconnect you physically and then plug back in front, they will be recognized by the computer. Check the system tray to see if the USB device that you removed safely become available when you started to use your computer again. If she did not become available automatically, then physically unplug it and then plug it in again.

    This is the screen it gives me. Help, please! If problem fixed, will BE AWARDED!

  • How to make Toshiba USB 250 GB HARD drive read-only?

    Hello

    I just plug a Toshiba USB 250g external hard drive to replace all the sticks of memory, I've been using.

    I'll use this external hard drive to copy files to other computers and I would like to know how to make the drive read-only.

    Moreover, all the other tips to protect the disc would be extremely welcome.

    I use a Dell with Windows 7 laptop.

    Thank you very much

    Dougal

    I don't know what HARD drive you have exactly, but I know that Toshiba offers a software protection with external hard drives.
    Did you check manuals? Is something like that provided with your HARD drive?

    Maybe you need to use some third party software part for the protection of files on the HARD drive. Google all over the place.

  • Problem with disconnecting USB 3.0 HDTB110EK3BA

    Hello

    have a problem that my Toshiba HDTB110EK3BA 1 TB disconnect USB 3.0. The drive to disconnect after 5-10 Minutes.
    USB 2.0 I have no problem.

    Any proposed solution.

    Running W7 64-bit system

    Best regards
    Duce4711

    Your Toshiba external HARD drive HDTB110EK3BA supports the USB 3.0 standard and should work just fine in USB 3.0 port.

    But as you say; the HARD drive works fine in USB 2.0.
    That's why I think that there is a problem with the HARD drive but with the USB 3.0 port.

    Maybe the USB 3.0 driver should be updated?
    In some cases, windows would have turned off the USB devices connected in order to safe.

    This setting can be disabled by:
    Device Manager-> USB game controllers, sounds-> USB hub / properties-> tab power management controller

    Option: leave the device connected to a safe food supply system should always be disabled.
