Portege R500 Toshiba 19AV505D TV LCD connection

I want to connect my Portege R500 laptop to a Toshiba 19AV505D LCD TV.

I tried to use a HDMI VGA cable and change the screen resolution of 800 x 600 and 16-bit color, but it does not recognize the tv.
Any ideas?

Device manual says use a DVI cable to HDMI and I tried this first with a VGA Converter (as there is no socket DVI on the R500) but that didn't work either.
Would be a SCART to VGA cable work?

What VGA-> HDMI adapter are you using?

What version HDMI support?

Maybe the TV requires HDMI v1.2 or v1.3 (see user manual)

  • Portege R500 hangs / pauses during the connection through the LAN

    My Portege R500 is like that: when all using WIFI or 3G works fine but I would use LAN for best performance when he's at the office. As soon as the LAN cable is connected the machine starts making strange breaks for 1 to 2 seconds and I want to say break total, even the mouse pointer freezes on the screen. This happens every 5 to 10 seconds and stops immediately when you unplug the LAN.

    Someone at - it solution or an explanation for that? Hardware error? I have all the latest drivers from Toshiba, even the latest firmware for both the computer and the built-in 3G modem. No strange software or bad - one abnormal behavior is used, antivirus is Trend OfficeScan and standard Windows Firewall is used.

    Thanks in advance.

    You can test at home or elsewhere? It will be interesting if the same thing will happen if you connect your laptop to the router at home.

    Have you talked about this with your local administrator?
    What you can try is to update BIOS to see if this will change anything.

  • Portege R500 - Toshiba does sell OEM licenses for Windows 7

    Hello

    I have a Portege R500 with Windows XP.
    I have now installed a version of Windows 7 without activation to see if all the drivers are working (Windows 8 is not supported I know).

    Everything looks good and Windows tells me now as planned, it is not authentic and propose to buy the license, but when I go to MS it fails (it seems that MS sells not more Windows 7).

    Toshiba sells licenses for Windows 7 for a R500 OEM?

    It would be a shame to throw it away because of this.

    Thank you
    Markus

    All you can do is to order a Toshiba Recovery disk.
    The recovery disc contains exactly the same operating system that was preinstalled on the laptop on the first day of purchase.

    In your case, this means that you will get the recovery with Win XP OS disk.

    As Timox said: If you want to use the other system than Win XP, you must purchase the Microsoft operating system.

  • Portege R500 could not establish a connection using Novatel Mobilink

    I am unable to make a connection using the software of Novatel Mobilink on my new R500.

    I installed * XP * and installed the relevant downloads on the Toshiba site, i.e.
    Power RF 3 G v 1.0.1.8 control utility
    MobiLink 2.0.2.1.8 v
    Wireless Broadband Mobile v 3.0.0.3

    My SIM is detected OK. I created my profile and checked that my APN, username and password are correct. When I try to connect I get the Mobilink network connection manager * error 619 * saying that perhaps my profile settings are not correct.

    However, if I create a connection by modem with exactly the same settings that the connection works fine.
    The only difference is that I use windows dial up to start the connection rather than Mobilink.

    Put Vista on the laptop the Mobilink connection works fine as well, it seems that if you want to do with XP, so I think that there could be another driver or patch required.

    Anyone had similar problems using Mobilink to initiate the connection?

    Any ideas would be welcome?

    Hello

    I m not an expert in Mobilink network connection, but I goggled a bit and discovered that if this error 619 message you should do this:

    S ' ensure that the data card is inserted into the laptop.
    -Go to compose (i.e. start-> Control Panel-> network connections) network connections and delete the profile called 3 G connection.
    -Try and launch a data call via Mobilink software. It should work now and the 3G connection profile visible once more.

    The following are the possible causes of an error 619 _Other: _
    -Name (APN) access point is not correct (i.e. incorrect characters for example)
    - or not entered at all.
    -Wrong username and/or password used.
    -The used SIM card is not associated with the required AFN

  • Portege R500 - toggle the display of the laptop to LCD projector screen

    Hello - new here, urgent request. We have a meeting, and I use the Portege R500 for the first time with LCD projector which is also a Toshiba.

    How do the laptop screen display the projection screen? I thought it was function F5 (Fn + F5), but it does not work.

    Can anyone help?

    Hello

    Yes, you must use the FN + F5 to switch to the external monitor or external projector, etc.
    You must first connect the laptop with a projector, while both devices are turned off.
    After connecting the projector you could power the laptop.

    Then try to switch to external projector using the FN + F5 key combination

  • Toshiba Portege R500 - external display display problem

    At my work, we have a number of series laptops Toshiba Portege R500. All laptops are home in a Toshiba Slim Port Replicator II. Laptops are all running a version of Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 2 applied (and of course a few customization business).

    The problem is with the display on the external monitor. The laptop starts according to the normal and connects to the fine. The Fn + F5 key and so we can switch between the external LCD screen and the laptop monitor. We can also extend the desktop on the external monitor without problem.

    The problem is that when the disconnection of the laptop computer to the port replicator, when the laptop is brought back, the display of the external monitor does not display anything. The monitor receives a signal that we don't get errors about "cable disconnected" etc. By bike by Fn + F5, the monitor will go to sleep (as the adjustment is only to be on the laptop screen). By pressing Fn + F5 again, the monitor seems to wake up but there is no display on the external monitor.

    The only resolution we have found because so far, it's to stop & restart the laptop and the external screen works again. However detach and the problem occurs again.

    Thought this might be a driver problem or a problem of Toshiba Utilities, so have updated the drivers accordingly. The drivers installed by default are the Intel 945 Express 6.14.10.4837 driver version. I tried to update the drivers for the next version (using drivers from the Web from Toshiba site) and changes to the version of the driver 6.14.10.4631. I also tried the Intel driver version 14324.

    I also installed the Toshiba screen utilities and shortcut keys to see if this may have an effect, but unfortunately not. I also tried to change the BIOS settings for the display of 'Automatic Selection' to LCD + CRT RGB, and once again it has no effect. I also tried several configurations in the "display settings" does not.

    Is this just a design problem? Is anyway to fix that?

    Hello

    I Portege R500 in front of me with the same port replicator and 21 "Toshiba TFT display (connected to the DVI port on the Port Replicator).

    Please open "Toshiba Mobile Extension" utility (you can find it in Control Panel), then click on the second tab > change of display service.
    If please activate this service and choose your preferred display output.

    I tested it 10 minutes ago and it works perfectly.

    Good bye

  • Re: Backlight LCD rest not work on Portege R500

    Well, I'll explane you my problem, I have a Portege R500 NoteBook. Yesterday, when I was working with my laptop, I had to move, and something strange happened. The LCD has started on and off, and then the light remained off the coast. When I push the backlight button to turn it on, the light gets on only one second and then automatically go down again.
    I think that the button is disabled or something like that.

    Please, can you help me?

    Kind regards.

    When the light is off, you see something on the screen and computer office or else plans?

    And backlight button do you mean? I assume that, if this happens sporadically, only the subsystem of LCD or maybe something around the screen has some hardware poorly run and should be checked by an authorized service provider.

    I would like to learn more about your problem, then maybe we can proobably exclude some hardware for error...

    If not, you should check on the Mainpage Toshiba for the support home page and search for the next provider of services available in your country.

  • Portege R500: unable to connect the remote DVI monitor via Dynadock

    Hello

    I just connected Dynadock (DVI) with my Portege R500. The cell would be supported - according to Toshiba - but my experience confirms that Dynadock is not able to access the DVI ports. This implies, that Dynadock is nothing more than the USB HUB.

    My setup: Vista 32 company b (CZE edition), the latest patches, Toshiba R500.

    Software: latest dynadock software 2.3 c.

    Symptom: I can't connect to the remote DVI monitor via the dynadock, there are only two external panels with 800 x 600, but Vista does not allow me to choose.

    More information: software Dynadock requires to run without Microsoft Defender, otherwise it blocks the service: DisplayLinkService; file:C:\Program Files\DisplayLink base Software\DisplayLinkService.exe
    If you turn off the MSDef, the "error 2738" message appears when you connect the dynadock and when Vista tries to install a missing drivers for you.
    Yes, I know the VBS question and the problem is not caused by VisualBasic - VBS "Hello World" runs.

    If you think always, Toshiba Dynadock is compatible with Toshiba R500, then press Fn + F5 and look at your logs and you should find something like:
    In English: igfxext.exe throws an exception 0xc000000d, offset 0x0000f9f8.

    I look forward to the comments, advice etc. If you are able to transmit this bug report to a responsible engineer, do please.

    Hello Leo

    As far as I know, Toshiba has not designed for laptops models own only Dynadock and it can be used on every laptop or fixed. Because of this, I think that this statement about model of care is not so important for this problem.

    Toshiba provides devices and software. To connect using the USB port, and these ports must each computer or laptop. I hope that you have installed the software by following the on-screen instructions (device of should not be connected to the start-up of the plant).

    Is your Portege docked the host or you have connected Dynadock directly in Portege s USB port?

  • Portege R500: Cannot restore Vista using Toshiba recovery disks

    I downgraded Vista to XP loaded factory.
    However, I would now like to restore back to Vista.

    I have disc 1 & 2 ' product Recovery DVD-Rom; Portege R500 disks.
    They are also marked "Windows Vista Business (SSD/PATA)" has been provided by Toshiba.

    I don't know how to use these discs to restore my operating system to Windows Vista. When I insert disc 1 and after loading some files, a message "cannot read the file source or disk - Preinst2.SWM" and I can not go any further.

    An instruction step by step would be greatly appreciated

    I wonder why you receive two recovery disks. As far as I know Toshiba Vista Recovery image is stored on a DVD.
    Perhaps you have received two CD

    In any case, have you tried to boot from the second disk? I mean the second recovery CD?

    Usually, recovery is not very sensitive. You must boot from the disc and should follow the instructions on the screen.

    The error cannot read from the source file or disk - Preinst2.SWM looks like a little to the Conference on disarmament would not readable or the CD/DVD drive would not read the disc properly.

  • Portege R500 - can only connect to unprotected WLAN

    Hello everyone

    My Portege R500 (win XP pro 32) has something very strange.
    It is absolute no problems to access any unprotected WIFI, but with the gateway D - Link DI-524 in WPA - PSK / WPA2-PSK channel 6 mode.
    He faults the IP assignment many times (from 30 min to 1 hour or more), before receiving access to the local network.

    Gaeway reports: dissociated [MAC ADDRESS] with no WPA retey

    The R500 is configured exactly as all other laptops. No other laptop not a WLAN access problem, even during failures R500.

    Often the WLAN will detect R500 with the maximum power level, and after a few minutes later without WLAN is available.

    I think that there is a driver problem with WXPpro in authentication procedure:
    The WiFi network is the Intel 4965AGN
    The driver is the ver.11.1.1.16 of NETw4x32.sys

    Help me please...

    Try:

    Update the BIOS
    Update the LAN and wireless drivers
    Disable your firewall
    Use the static IP instead of DHCP
    Update the Firmware on your DLink.
    Manually configure the wireless connection, instead of by selecting it in the list and clicking "connect".

  • Portege R500 - Flashcard Toshiba has stopped working

    Hello

    I get this error "Toshiba Flashcard has stopped working and will be closed" when I start my laptop Portege R500.
    What is the cause?

    I'm running Vista and my PC continues to run even if it does.

    See you soon,.
    Elty

    Hello

    It's not easy to say what causes this problem.
    In most cases to other parts of the software may affect the functionality of different applications.
    For example, my flash card stopped working after Vista ran some updates.

    I simply removed the old VAP (value added package) of the system.
    I cleaned the registry and the system using CCleaner (free tool) and reinstalled again the VAP.

    Now everything works fine.

    I think you should try the same too.
    Remove the VAP and installed as the new VAP downloaded from the page of European driver of Toshiba.

  • Toshiba Portege R500 - can I download WinDVD?

    Hello

    I have install Vista on my R500, but not with the Vista DVD included for PC Toshiba.
    I have install Vista from original VISTA DVD, ultimate version and my problem is, I want an InterVideo WinDVD for TOSHIBA.
    Is possible download this program from any place of toshiba?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I checked the Web from Toshiba site and if you are looking for Portege R500 you will find WinDVD in download section. But if you read the details for this download you will find the following information:
    > Make sure that the system has been updated for Windows Vista SP1 and loaded with "InterVideo WinDVD for TOSHIBA.

    That means on the download European driver of Toshiba page that you can find an update.

    If you need another player to watch DVDs. I prefer VLC media player. It s freeware and can play most audio and video files. A great player and I never had any problems with it.
    It s worth a try! ;)

  • 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
