Portege R500:XP drivers for 3 G module?

Hello
(Sorry for the crosspost, this issue is already in the 3G forum, but this one is maybe a little more cluttered...)

I'm struggling with a R500, equipped of the 3G module, on which I have installed XP SP2 from scratch: I downloaded the Vista drivers for the 3 G module, which seem to settle fine and then installed the SW. MobiLink but when I run it, the SIM card is seen very well, but then I get "The Radio is off", so this is not...
Problem drivers?

Any idea?
Another strange thing is that the wireless keyboard shortcut does not work.
Thank you

Hello

For the moment you will find 3G driver for Windows XP for R500 in the web.
Try this, but it's a bit complicated:
-Remove the 3G Vista driver (device a modem and four com ports) in Device Manager. It is best to remove the files according to the oemXX.inf in the \windows\inf directory, too.
-Download the M400 pilot 3G http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/3gdrv-20070810123322.zip
-Install the driver installation program. You will have 2 com unknown devices after installation because M400 has an older Novatel 3G module as R500.
-Remove the old pilot 3 g Vista and use this driver for the two unknown com 3G devices.
Now everthing works with Windows XP.

The other thing is the reason why your wireless keyboard shortcut does not work.
1. you have the right wireless hotkey utility? You must install the one WITH 3 G included. If not download it from http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/wlkey-en-20070905152817.zip M400, remove the old and install this version. It wil work well.
2. you must add the PnP ID of your wireless network card to the switchable devices list in the registry of wireless keyboard shortcut. You can do this in two ways. The easiest way is to download the network driver wireless toshiba website http://www.toshiba-tro.de/tools/updates/intel-wlan/wlan-intel-3495-4965-v111116-xp-2k.zip. In the download, there is an IMDGInst.reg regfile. Add the contents of your registry. Immediately after inserting the FN + F8 works.

If you have any questions please post them here.

    Hello

    I doubt that you can get 64-bit drivers for Windows XP for this laptop from the Toshiba driver page.
    I didn t find drivers for Windows XP 64 bits for Toshiba laptops.
    Why? I think the Win XP 64 bit was not so popular like Win XP 32 bit and most of the applications have been designed for XP 32 bit OS.

    If install you XP 64-bit on this computer, you will have to look in the various 3rd party Web sites for the compatible drivers

    Hello world

    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

    Marek

    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.

    Good luck

  • Where can I find XP x 64 drivers for Portege R500 - hotkey / power management?

    Where can I find the downloads that will enable the power management or hotkey support for my Portege R500?

    I already installed the drivers for everything except the fingerprint reader (do not want), tpm (really envy) and hdd (tos620a) motion sensor (not embarrassed at this time). Most of the drivers are recent original sites of the seller or, in the absence of those, leaving Toshiba 64-bit Vista download areas.

    Everything else works generally: wifi, graphics & chipset, sound, lan, bluetooth stack, cardbus, card reader, etc.

    However, after doing this, are the following questions:

    FN keys do not work for suspend to ram, suspend-to-disk, * screen * brightness *-essential to extend the life. FN keys for digital/Board pad, rocker of external surveillance * work

    Dedicated toggle backlight button does nothing

    However, in order to get the lifetime of battery beyond ~2.5 hours and closest alongside 7.1 hours, I need to turn things down / stop occasionally. What software can help and where I can get, as it runs on Windows XP x 64 edition?

    Note:

    I tried packages of 32-bit xp which provides Toshiba, they do not seem to work on x 64. The package 'chopsticks' requires 'cmod', but 'cmod' gives this error:

    Installation of Modules common TOSHIBA
    Not an ACPI machine. Cannot install TOSHIBA ACPI peripheral logic.
    Ok

    I tried the 32-bit xp package called 'pwrsav '; It installs a bad help link in my Start menu and adds a few exes, tpsmain and tpsoddctl, to my automatically starts. These 32-bit executables left immediately after execution.

    I tried to install packages of 64-bit Vista from Toshiba hotkeys / common modules / power management, but the only one of the three I can find via toshiba.co.uk is the common modules, and unfortunately this zip file contains only .inf, .cat and .sys files, no program installation.

    Motivation:
    I use a new installation at the same time because the default installation of Vista is unusable (900 MB of memory used on a fresh startup desktop, disk divided into several partitions, trial, adware and with broken software at left and right)
    I use x 64 because I am software engineer the next product needs to work on x 64, and this new laptop was a likely first candidate

    Hello

    Bad news first :(

    The European driver Toshiba page provides the drivers for XP 32 bit and Vista (32-bit & 64-bit).
    I did find all the drivers for XP 64-bit OS.

    As much as I know XP 64-bit drivers is not exist for one of the series of Toshiba laptops.

    Now a new better ;)

    I found a tool called display Tuner.
    It offers convenient access to the monitor settings, such as brightness, contrast, color settings.

    Perhaps this is an option for you.
    Google a bit

    Hello

    On the Toshiba download page, there are 37 drivers Windows XP Home for Portege R500. In my opinion, you can try to install Windows XP Home edition and use available drivers.

    Hello Ad

    I imagine that you are a little confused about missing drivers, but actually, you should install only the stuff offered on the Toshiba download page.

    Please, do it and test drive optical with a burning software like Nero and you will see that everything works correctly.

    One more thing about this document Instructions of facilities: this list is the same as the use for creating Toshiba recovery image. Recovery image contains many more things that you can find on the download page. I don't want to explain now why is it and for WXP feature on Portege R500 is not so important.

    Important for you is to download all the stuff and install it following this order facilities.

    All that s!

    One last thing: I have heard that Toshiba will create DVDs from Windows XP Home edition for professional laptops recovery. I'm sure you can order this DVD of Windows XP Home edition. Try to contact the partner of service allowed in your country and ask if they can order one for you.

  • Portege R500: Card reader SD and ODD do not work - drivers needed

    I have laptop portege R500, product number: PPR50E-04X04WCE.

    last year, I changed the operating system and installed windows 7.
    Since then, I can't use the dvd drive or the sd card reader.
    And the control panel it apears two unknown devices, but I can´t find the controllers for these.

    What can I do to fix this?

    I assume you found unknown devices in Device Manager.
    Check it please http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=78
    Here you can find instructions how to identify the unknown devices.

    I checked the Toshiba download under http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp page and your Portege is listed there, but under the option ARCHIVE. It is supported for Win7 so there is no problem to install all the drivers available.

  • 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.
