Portege M500 screen flashes & sparkles

Hello

You have an idea why my Portege M500 laptop screen blinks and blinks after turning on?

There are also several vertical lines shaking (like waves) on the screen and the round to be normal in some 10-15 minutes. And then they start to tremble again and again.

Thank you very much.

Hello

> I think coz I can see the wave menu bar and can use the menu "disable."
You mean you can see everything on the screen of the laptops, but everything seems like behind a thick fog?
Is this right?

If Yes, then this might be a FL. inverter problem
But as Luke suggested if will not help you know what part is working badly because in all cases, the ASP must be contacted for a fix

  • Portege M500 - how to create recovery DVDs?

    Hi there :)

    I bought Toshiba Portege M500. Anyone know how to create a CD/DVD of recovery on this model?

    I installed the "recovery CD creator" but - I just can't create it. The only thing that came on the screen is: Qosmio Player recovery CD.

    On the help page - there are instructions to create the disk - but the options were not available to me. (i.e. the system recovery disc option)

    Help, please! I would really appreciate it!

    Sophie

    Hello

    Portege M500 was equipped with HARD drive recovery option?
    Did you find the information you need to create a recovery disk in the user's manual?

    Where did you find the "Toshiba recovery CD creator"?
    This tool has been pre-installed?

    I guess that there is no image on the HARD drive files that are needed to create the recovery disk Toshiba and so you can't create it.

  • iMac screen flashes black in Photoshop CC

    Hello

    I am posting this as well in CC Adobe and Apple forums as I do not know where the problem lies, but I would really appreciate this problem:

    I use Adobe apps on an iMac CC brand new (still in time to get the full refund). If you use Photoshop CC (2015.5) the entire screen (not only the Photoshop window) goes black for about half a second when any icon tool exceeding a certain size of pixel passes of the tool to the pointer icon icon or vice versa.

    This happens for example when the icon of the fate of the area of the image on the menus or the dashboard or window, or when it comes in and out of the right click menu change brush size. Any situation when running the tool pointer or pointer tool. It does not always happen, but it happens most of the time, maybe the type of pointer movement has something to do with it, well it happens with fast or slow transitions.

    The problem only occurs when the brush is superior to certain dimensions - never when it is less than the critical size. The critical size may vary depending on whether the Photoshop was opened for a while or just launched (I don't know too much about). There is also an interaction with the hardness of the tool.

    Thus, for example:

    On the blur to 0% hardness tool, the screen flashes black when will top 80 pixels-never less than size. 100% hardness, it flashes from 64 pixels. Same for the Brush tool, Eraser, etc. I think it happens with any appreciable tool (don't have not tried them all).

    I use a Wacom Intuos PS and the Magic Mouse from Apple. The problem occurs at the same time if they are both connected together or separately.

    The problem occurs even when Photoshop is the only application running.

    Please help, because it is almost unusable now.

    Specifications of the computer:

    iMac, retina 4 k, 21, 5-inch

    Processor: Intel Core i5 to 3.1 GHz

    Memory: 8 GB 1867 MHz DDR3

    Graphics card: Intel Pro Iris Graphics 6200 1536 MB

    The Photoshop memory usage is set to default values:

    4500MB (70% of available memory)

    4 levels of cache

    Tile size 1024K cache

    I just downloaded and tried the oldest version of Photoshop - CS6 - available through my driver's license and the problem is exactly the same, this is not limited to a particular version of the CC in Photoshop.

  • Hi, my screen flashes during playback of movies from Netflix

    Hi, my screen flashes during playback of movies from Netflix. It happens with other applications or when I play DVD. It begins in about 5 seconds in movies and it happens about every 4-5 seconds. The screen turns white for about a second, then it shows some horizontal lines, and it goes back to normal. And after a few seconds, he begins anew. I also noticed it always happen when I move my mouse during playback of a movie at Netflix.

    My PC is HP Pavilion 17 inch. I3 Haswel processor and Intel graphics card built-in. 8.1 to win

    I've updated all the drivers, but nothing helped.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    Dmitry

    Figured out. Change refresh rate of 60 Hz 40 Hz p p and it solved the problem.

    BTW, HP helpdesk is completely useless... He does not call them – at least their 'free' in India support is completely incompetent.

  • Portege M500 - electric shock on the front left corner

    Hello

    I use my Portege M500 more than 10 hours a day to write and read.

    What bothers me from time to time is a wake-up call that I get when my left wrist touch the corner front left.
    So, I feel the shock that is minor, though only in a very sensitive part. Bothers me.

    You give me an advise how to fix it?

    Thank you very much!!

    Hello

    I put t know what could cause this problem but I highly recommend contact the ASP in your country.
    I mean something like that should not happen and I think that the ASP technician must check the hardware

    Perhaps these small electric shocks are associated with the charge of static electricity... who knows?  :|

    In any case, you should get in touch with your local service partner in order to clarify this issue!

  • Control LCD screen flashes on and outside

    Hello
    I have a 6 yr old HP w15e LCD monitor, it is quite old. But recently, it's showing strange things. Whenever I turn on the power to the monitor with or without the CPU video input, continuous screen blinking on and outside (I think there are two seconds between the two slot and power off).
    I tried different power cables, but still screen flashing. So help me to record this thing.
    Thank you.

    Hello @shan678,

    I understand that your w15e HP LCD monitor continues to blink off and off and you seek help to fix. I provided you with a few steps, you can try below:

    Step 1. Unplug the power cord at the back of the screen and the wall
    Step 2. Press and hold the power button for at least a minute
    Step 3. Plug the power cable in the monitor, and then to the wall outlet (not a power bar or surge protector)
    Step 4. Press the Menu button on the monitor
    Step 5. Navigate to the factory reset option and select

    If the steps above did not resolve your issue, you can try the monitor on a computer or other device to see if the problem persists. If not I think it would be preferable that you contact HP Support for service options.

    Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Portege Z20T: Screen gets scratched by almost anything

    Ciao!

    I own a Portege Z20T B - 10 c which is a pretty nice machine, but has an embarrassing flaw: the screen is scratched by virtually any contact. For example, I can't use the "pen of emergency" for the touch input or write on the screen, because it causes scratches. In addition, the screen has already collected a series of scratches shaping the contour of the touchpad, is supposed to be produced when the laptop is closed. So you can't really use the laptop, how it should be used, and I fear that a few months from now, the screen will be filled with stripes.

    While I'm waiting for my laptop store decide whether a case of warranty or not, I wonder if anyone of you has this template and it has encountered the same problem?

    See you soon,.
    Stefan

    I have exactly the same problem. I only use the machine since July and already it's enough damage. Basically, the screen is rubbing against the dock and I the footprint in the sketch of the touchpad. I fear that they will soon be damaging the images captured by the camera since the outline of the Tablet are right on the lens.


    Toshiba is reluctant to fix it so far and I've included the response of my rep account below. Frankly, I was shocked because it is such a costly computer and the cause of the problem seems so obvious. I was also disappointed that they do not consider this thread to assess my case since it is the first result when one Googles 'portege striped screen.

    Hello Eric,

    I sent to your email with pictures of your computer laptop scratches to the screen. They responded by saying that the stripes are not due to a manufacturing defect, and there has not been an another other touchscreens Z20t reports get scratches like that on the screen, so there is nothing they can do to replace it. Our Customer Service Manager will usually just make the call to replace him, if the laptop is with the first 90 days, which is 2 and a half months after the normal return policy. He was not able to get permission to replace it.

    I'm glad that you were able to get this phone back operational. Please keep this practical Business Technical Support number for future needs, that I hope that you don't always have to use it in the future. Please give me a call if you have any other questions in the future.

  • Portege M500: Game "Sims 3" disc authentication error is displayed

    Hello

    I have a laptop Portege M500, which meets all the conditions for the new Sims 3 game.

    I was able to install the game without a problem, but when I try to play a 'disc authentication error' message appears.

    It seems that there is a problem with this game on Toshiba laptops, especially those with Mat * one material.

    My laptop has a CARPET * a DVD-RAM UJ-842.

    Please can someone help?

    Hello

    I doubt that there is something wrong with s for laptop hardware.
    I goggled for the message: authentication failure drive and in most cases, the error appears in the Sims 3 game.

    You use an original Sims 3 game? Or it s just a copy?

    I read a few details on the various pages and looks like the error appears with a pirate copy of movies or games...

  • Satellite M300 - screen flashes white

    Toshiba Satellite M300 on 18 months old (using Windows 7). Display has had intermittent problems. Screen flashes to a white screen. Now if the lid is moved while he was working, "white" screen completely and returns to normal when returned to 'the sweet spot '!

    Have not yet tried another monitor. Driver is up-to-date. Assuming that maybe it's a "bad connection". Use turned off with the closure of the lid that changed tonight.

    Any ideas? :)

    Hi KezRev,

    Theoretically, it could be a problem of connecting cable or internal problem display but you should test another monitor first. Just connect an external monitor to check the image here.

    If the external monitor works properly it s the LCD cable internal or visualize a malfunction. So, contact a service provider and allow technicians to check your laptop. They can fix this problem and order new parts. :)

  • Portege M500 - hard drive 320 GB expandable

    Hello. could advise you. I have a portege M500 with 80 GB HARD drive.
    It is expandable to 320GB SATA? Thank you.

    Hello

    Given that the SATA controller has no real limit on the size of HARD drive, I'd say it's possible.
    As far as I know the laptop supports version 2.5 (S - ATA) (ATA - 6) 5 400 tr/min. 9.5 mm hard drives
    You can also use hard drives with different speeds.

    This should be ok.

  • Portege R500 screen problem

    My Portege R500 screen is a light quite leak in the edges and it is impossible to display anything on the sides.
    It is very difficult to watch videos. Black is dark gray.

    Can I have a defective unit?
    Is it possible to fix this screen to warranty service?

    How is your R500 screen?

    Hello

    I'm not quite sure of what could be the problem exactly. There may be something wrong with the FL inverter, but it is my personal suggestion.
    To get a detailed fault diagnosis audit specifications would be necessary.

    > Is it possible to fix this screen to warranty service?
    If you warranty is valid that everything should be done for free just contact the ASP in your country and ask for later handling.

    The technician of the authorized service provider should be able to provide more details and should help you.

    Good luck
