• Re: Portege R500-11 with SSD: I want to install Win XP

  Sorry if this is a common question, but I haven't had no luck with the research.

  I have a Portege R500-11 pair with SSD and I want their downgrade to XP. (speed issues)

  First question. Is it possible or are there problems?

  Second: I guess I have to install the SSD driver, with nlite or F6 during installation of the victory, but which is the correct driver? Can someone give me the exact link, please?

  Is this? Intel Storage Manager.

  Thanks for your help and sorry again if it is a question of RTFM.
  Good bye

• Portege R700 - problem with fingerprints to connect on Win7

  I have problems with my new Portege R700 with fingerprint reader to log on Win 7 acount.

  I have digital fingerprints installation to the system via the Toshiba fingerprint utility. Several times I can wake up the Portege of sleep or turn it on, fingerprints from the BIOS is accepted, after which appears logon screen in Win7 and in some cases, I'm able to connect automatically to this account. In some cases just system is pending, it is not possible to login with the password. I restart phone, sometimes more than once.

  You can help someone? I have already several times removed, Setup still traces of fingers, I updated the utility and the new driver fingerprint - nothing does not.

  Hello Vava

  Are you using the original recovery image Toshiba (operating system) that you got with your laptop?

• Portege R500 - stop with AuthenTec software installed

  I have a problem with R500 (PPR50E-06W011PL). I plug it nine January 4th, 2010.

  In the order indicated in the manual, installed XP Pro and then all the drivers (lates available versions). I very quickly realized shutdown problems (sometimes with blue screen for less than a second) upon awakening from hibernation or same screen saver. It is in almost every second awakening. After reading all the info, I found this forum I decided to uninstall the AuthenTec fingerprint software. Since that time my R500 has never shutdowned itself and you must know that I Hibernate it several times every day. However, this isn't a solution because fingerprintreader software should work fine without cause OS problems.

  Has anyone met with such a problem? If so, it has been resolved? How?

  A installed WXP using Toshiba recovery facilities disk or your own version of Windows XP Home edition?

• Portege R500 - compatibility with Intel SSD 320 160 GB

  I installed an Intel 320 160 GB SSD in my Portege R500 (PPR50E).
  However, the BIOS does not detect the new drive. I updated the BIOS to the 1.60WIN version, the most recent that I found, but the drive is still not detected.

  Is there a possible solution? Or I need to take the drive?
  Thanks for any help

  It must be a problem of compatibility so I don't think you can force Portege to recognize this SSD.
  I'm afraid there is nothing you can do about m.

• Portege M400 problem with virtualization

  I have problem with VT in BIOS VT is enabled, but Windows 7 do not. I instaled XPmode, but when I try to start I get connect this virtualization is disable. I don't know what I do mus.

  Hello

  What CPU you have in your Portege M400?

  Virtualization is a function of the motherboard (BIOS) * and * processor type. The fact is that not all processors are dematerialising and then you should check the specification on the first Intel page.

  Check this box!

• Portege M700 - problem with Dynadock

  I can not change the resolution on a screen connected Dynadock and cannot save the display settings of all - how to fix this?

  I have a Portege M700 running Vista Professional SP1 - mainly the machine is used as a desktop replacement, connected to a screen Viewsonic 19 "wide through the Dynadock DVI - when it is connected so I have the laptop screen is off and use only the Viewsonic at a resolution of 1440 x 900. I had been bothered by the fact that whenever the resumption of the screensaver, the resolution would drop down to some lower State (I was not able to identify the dimensions he thought he was using but probably 1280 x 800, the default resolution of the internal display).

  I tried to solve this problem with the technical support level 3 without success. I thought I was smart and try to install the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator Driver update that is located on the Intel Web site (if you're just trying to install this software, Vista won't let you, but if you unzip it and manually update the drivers it works). This resulted in the connected screen Dynadock is off completely - no signal! So I uninstalled the drivers, reinstalled the drivers Intel original, but now, I have no the ability to adjust the resolution on the Dynadock login screen - and it is defaulting to something that's not going to (too broad and not high enough)!

  I lived several cycles to uninstall and reinstall the drivers for the graphics card (Mobile Intel 965 chipset) and the Dynadock; I updated the drivers Dynadock with the latest download from the website of DisplayLink, tried all sorts of drivers for the monitors associated with DisplayLink, tried several restorations system (which have all failed, which was also quite disturbing but less than an immediate concern), etc. Through all this, there is absolutely no way to choose the correct resolution of the screen through the display properties (my choices are 800 x 600, 1024 x 768 and 1280 x 800), and even simply activate an additional screen translates to nothing happens - the new settings do not stay after hitting "Accept" or "OK". I thought that I had licked when I realized that I had to uncheck "Extend to this monitor box office" to screen internal laptop - indeed I was then able to choose 1440 x 900 for the Viewsonic and everything was good, but everything came back after reboot. Of course, now when I try to repeat, I am unable to uncheck this box not more for the internal screen (well, actually, I can uncheck, but when I hit "apply" or "OK" it simply gets selected again).

  All this comes after I spent weeks trying to get this machine to work with the port replicator, which also did not work - a problem that appears to be from an incompatibility with Vista display card drivers and the port replicator (would have been nice if it sales had told me that when I bought the thing, but I digress...)

  In any case, it seems, as it is a Vista problem, I've seen this question asked of other portable devices vista and displaylink other advice, but I know it's possible to have a working reasonably OK solution since I've had one before I went and it messed up trying to work perfectly. Serves me right for spend 3 k $ on a machine and expected that it works as described, I guess. If anyone has any ideas... my next step is probably a downgrade to XP Pro, and then if that does not work, I'm tempted to break into pieces. Or, if someone's figured out how to get the port replicator to work with a M700 Vista, which is actually a better option for me...

  Hello Tony

  It's a very long story, but I use Portege M700 with Dynadock DVI (PA3542Y1PRP) and have no problem at all. After reading your ad I tried changing all the display options and I didn t notice something strange. It works well.

  Read your ad I see you tried to install different things and I wonder not to have so many problems. The best solution for you is to install the new OS using recovery image. Do the clean install of OS and install later Dynadock Utility 2.3 c. be careful while installation is running and do not interrupt the procedure of facilities. Make sure that all software components are installed correctly.

  When you start installation Dynadock Utility Dynacock can not be connected. When you see the window where you will be asked to connect Audio device USB connect the Dynadock to the USB port of your favorite. I use the USB port on the back.

  I use the external display to monitor LCD 22 with a resolution of 1680 x 1050. In the settings screen is display number three and when I click on it I can set the resolution to the maximum level (native resolution). The image is perfect.

  I tried the same as you:
  -Set the external display as primary monitor (for computer laptop LCD was OFF)
  -J' have enabled screen saver and tested several times, but the resolution is always the same no changes at all the
  -With these settings, I rebooted the phone several times as well as the resolution was still the same no problem at all

  After reboot, I can see the image on the notebook LCD only, to the point where I have to write the password that I can see the same image on laptop LCD and external monitor. A few seconds later, the image is switched on external monitor only and it is the same thing you want to have. The resolution is the same again (native resolution). No change at all and all seems OK.

  At the end I've switched back to the LCD display only. It is also interesting to procedure. As a first step, you click on display number one and activate extended desktop. After that, you will be able to use the option to change the primary monitor. A little strange to me, but OK.

  So everything works well for me and for you I only see an option. Reinstall Vista, install new utility Dynadock (new installations) and test again.
  One last thing: do not connect Dynadock on different USB ports. Use always the same.

  Bye and good luck!

• Portege R700 - problems with video playback with resolution more 360 p

  I have this problem of video playback on the first day. While for example on YouTube, video resolution than 360 freeze while the sound is ok.

  I contacted Toshiba whereby I had a linke for the bios and latest drivers. After the upgrade question persists. Sometimes I get a green screen by watching the video flash as well. I guess it's a hardware graphics card problem. Any ideas? Thank you! (Portege R700 19 L, win7 pro 64)

  I have some pre-sales questions on laptop nice R500 - 11 K.
  I want to install XP pro on this machine. The device is delivered withou XP Recovery CD. (model 11A C)
  There are beautiful collection for R500 XP drivers so I can install XP manually.

  NES http://eu.Computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=eu&mode=allMachi & action = search & teddProduct = 747

  Model K 11 has another installed UMTS/HSDPA/EDGE/GPRS module unlike models. Great!

  What about drivers for this module?
  There is not any UMTS/HSDPA/EDGE/GPRS modem drivers listed in the list of drivers for Vista or XP or device.

  So the question is, if I want to install XP, where can I find the driver for 3G module manually?
  Is the component of another driver driver?
  -Does anyone know the name and the type of this module 3G? In my view, the module is provided by aint Toshiba of the seller.

  Anyone have any experience with XP on R500 11 K?

  Thank you

  Hmm, you're right.
  The pilot of the 3G is not available on the Toshiba page

  Seems that the driver has been downloaded not however the Portégé R500 was delivered with a * Novatel MSM6275 card * ThreeG (Qualcomm should be manufacturing the chip) and if you want, you could try to download the driver of the 3rd site part.

• Portege R100: Problems with CD/DVD Lacie USB 2.0 drive

  Hello everyone, this is my first post here.
  I'll most likely be a regular here I come to buy a R100.

  I am having trouble with an external hard drive that I bought especially for the R100,
  It's a Lacie CD / DVD burner, model number: 300819EK.

  This unit can be powered by AC or by using the two usb ports.
  I use two usb ports.

  The R100 recognizes the Lacie, and in the Device Manager list, the drive is then
  in the list, but he is listed as a drive of Toshiba.
  I'm assuming that this disc of Toshiba external hard drive, you could buy for use
  with the R100.

  The Lacie drive works, but it seems preloaded the R100 CD / DVD
  pilots are contradictory in some way and is made using the player very touched and don't miss.
  He often gets 20% about a facility, then crashes.

  Is there a spare driver I can download that I can replace the toshiba
  drivers with?

  As if by having the Lacie 100% functional means there is obviously a
  How to overcome the problems.

  Hope you girls and guys can shed some light on this for me.
  Thank you.

  Hello, Larry

  You will be very happy if someone will be able to give you some explanations in this regard. I can tell you more: the fact is that this model is created and tested to work with Toshiba compatible external devices. Because of this, Toshiba built in all the necessary drivers in the operating system preinstalled. It should help the installation and also drive fast and quick recognition.

  This does not mean that you MUST use discs from Toshiba. Of course you can use what you want, but the only problem can be when you try to install the OS. Toshiba recovery image contains drivers for Toshiba drives and recovery procedure will work without any problem because the external sides will be immediately recognized.

  I recommend to visit the Lacie support page and check if you can find some driver it. Toshiba has nothing to do with it, if you use a third party product.

  Often, he gets 20% approximately of a plant then crashes sorry but I t did not understand what you mean with it and what you mean with 20%. Second part of your ad is very confusing and I really don t know what you mean.

• Portege R500 (PPR50E) speaker does not mute when headphones plugged

  Hello

  The problem is the 'secret' doesnot portable speaker when I connect the headphones. The audio is coming from headphones and speakers of the laptop. It is verymuch irritating when you do voice chat. Is there a solution for this problem?

  Thanks in advance,

• Portege R500 and Toshiba optical Tilt-Wheel Mouse

  Hello

  I have a problem with my Portege R500 combined with my Toshiba optical Tilt-Wheel Mouse. I use Win XP Pro SP2.

  When using the laptop will cut the mouse. If I plug the mouse into a different USB port, I can use the mouse for a while, but it does not stop.

  Then the same problem, but a reconnection to another work of doesn´t of USB port.
  I use the original Microsoft win xp driver.

  Hoody Bye

  Have you received the special XP driver with this mouse?
  If Yes, then install it.

  But to my knowledge it s common USB mouse that needs to use a plug n play

  Then maybe you should check the USB settings.

  Go to Device Manager and open the USB bus controller tree
  Here, you must mark the unique USB root hubs and select Properties.

  In the Management tab to disable the function allow the computer to turn off this device

  In addition I recommend upgrading the XP to the last State. I want to say that all fixes and patches must be installed!

  Good luck

• Portege R500 - all chances of getting a kit of renovation of 3G (UMTS/HSDPA)

  I just bought my Toshiba R500 here in Germany about three weeks ago. A few days ago, I received information that Toshiba will soon offer the R500 with integrated UMTS/HSDPA modem.
  Even more surprising: the price seems to be the same, there is no price increase.

  So, I just bought a R500 with 64 GB of SSD three weeks ago and he is already OLD. I've always wanted the R500 with integrated 3G but my dealer told me that there is no information that Toshiba will offer such a product. Of course, I can still use my 3G Express card with a PCMCIA card, but to be honest, it seems silly to have that thing sticking out of the R500.

  Now, here's my question, because I am sure that other customers are too affected: is wise and customer Toshiba kind enough to offer some kind of kit of renovation of the 3gs for the R500? I know that there is space, including for the reader of card SIM, but if Toshiba does not offer a kit of renovation, any modification may void the warranty and it can also do not work as it should.

  Chances to get a 3G (UMTS/HSDPA) renovation for the R500 kit any time soon? I love my R500 but without integrated 3G, it truly annoys from time to time (btw: the s.cks Word is censored, funny).

  Retro Kit 3G? : D

  Hey Buddy AFAIK the 3G card must be connected to the motherboard, and if someone wants to upgrade the small Portege R500, thin with this card you will need to disassemble the whole laptop.
  This would void the warranty.

  I m not sure if it of possible to modernize the R500 with such card but if yes, then you should contact the ASP in your county for such a procedure.

  I have already seen that the Portege R500 equipped with module 3G / UMTS (3.6 Mbps) high-speed.
  Maybe it's better to sell your R500 and buy a new one with the card 3G s? ;)

  Best regards
