• The display is loose on my Portege R500 - how to tighten the hinges?

  The display is loose on my portege r500.

  Does anyone know how to tighten the hinges?

  Hello

  I think that this procedure is very delicate and in my opinion it s a job for a technician.
  I m don't know if you can tighten the hinges if necessary he s need to replace the old hinges

  Is it the hinges are hidden under the plastic around the screen frame.
  The LCD mask is fixed with screws I m but not quite sure how much could be three screws. They are hidden under the mask of small cushions.
  You will need to remove and the tightness of the extra mask.
  Then you can remove the LCD mask. The hinges should be visible now

  But there s more complicated as it may seem the R500 is a nice unit, and it would be a shame that you would damage the LCD screen. The LCD screen is an expensive part, and in my opinion it is worth to ask a professional for help

• Portege R500 - how to activate Vista backlight function?

  Hello

  I installed Vista Ultimate x 86 on my R500. To enable all the features that I have downloaded all the drivers from the Toshiba support pages - including value-added Pakage, who as far as I know should enable the backlight function. However, I was not able to turn on the backlight of the laptop features. If I press the button for backlight function nothing happens :-(

  Any ideas how to solve this problem?

  Kind regards

  Johannes

  Hello

  First of all he must know that sometimes it can happen that Toshiba VAP would not fully support Vista Ultimate.
  This means that some features unique VAP wouldn not like on preinstalled Vista Home Premium

  In any case, there are a few options that need to be verified;
  First go into the BIOS and check if the LED light is activated (some BIOSES contain this option). Second, you should check the Toshiba control utility buttons if LED lighting has been assigned to this button too.

  I m R500 not owner but I have are a U400 Sat and lighting such option in my Toshiba control utility.

• Portege R500 - how to replace the SSD?

  Hello

  1. I have trouble using the recovery CD. The computer to read the CD once and give me an error message that it cannot partition the SSD drive. Ask me to restart the PC. Then I insert the CD change once again, the sequence of boot on the CD, but now, the computer does not recognize the recovery CD. Now, the freezing of the PC after start.

  2. I have a legal windows vista CD I tried to install in the PC but I'm not a clean install because the computer does not read the CD

  3. I tried the CD in another computer. I insert the CD to reboot and the computer immediately went to the wizard of microsoft vista.

  4. I tested the CD rom and it works.

  5. I believe that the solid state SSD laptop drive has failed.

  I opened my laptop to check what I need to buy the brand SSD. However, is the first time that I change a SSD drive and I don't know where he is and how to replace. So, if someone can answer with the steps of how to do to replace the SSD I will appreciate it.

  Thank you
  Nils.

  Hello!

  In my opinion, it could also be a problem with the CD/DVD drive. I mean you have tried another drive and the computer laptop doesn t read this disc too.
  So for me it sounds like this drive is also defective.

  But as Akuma said you should also check the SATA Mode in the BIOS.

  I think the best way would be to contact you nearest ASP. They can check a defective hardware for laptop parts and Exchange. If your laptop is under warranty, repairs are free.
  The ASP s list that you can find here:

• XP Pro SP3 programs fax everything works except will not activate the modem.

  All the routines of fax machine worked correctly in the past, BUT without warning (which was checked and working properly) the modem is more will not activate when the fax software is responsible for sending the message.  I was not able to find hardware problems and even after removing and reinstalling the MS fax routines the modem will not activate.  Would appreciate any ideas about the solution.  Thank you.

  It is probably not the modem firmware, although it could be that the modem driver is corrupted.  In both cases, however, a visit to the site of the manufacturer of the modem is in order.

  Exactly how did you determine that the modem is working properly?
  Have you looked in the Device Manager?
  Have you used the 'button interrogate modem' tab of the property sheet for the modem ' Diagnostic'?
  Have you tested a data connection using HyperTerminal?  If you do not know the phone number of a "Bulletin Board" (apparently some of these still exist) or the IP address of a server telnet, just to open HyperTerminal and see if you can dial any phone other than the line number to which your modem is connected.

  Thank you for your understanding, PML.  I had used all of the tools you mentioned EXCEPT try another modem program!  HyperTerminal doesn't activate the modem, the feature has been confirmed.  I also had a problem with the new creation of file and folder (program installs, etc) setting not permissions to a level of total control of my identifying specifically used (Admin level) which, of course, can cause certain issused orders either by keyboard or input to fail (often with no indication of the cause of failure) program.  Realizing that this situation might be involved with the problem of the fax modem that I started to study the folders and files that are used by the routines of MS Fax.  A lot of the files/folders did not the permissions defined by giving total control of my ID so I adjusted the.  The modem is now triggered by the routine of fax!  Thanks for making me think a bit out of the box (at least my usual box) and providing the index (another modem using program to test the feature running) problems.

  Now if I can only figure out why (or what has changed in my system) which causes the folder/file creation process in Blons class "Admin" from my user and privileges not setting high enough!  GG
