• Portege R600-11b - screen is very low

  Hello

  The screen on my Portege R600-11b disappeared suddenly extremely dim. There is no problem with him coming back to life after hibernation - but he remains coems back extremely dim. Light blinks until when I press the button in the upper right corner with a symbol of the Sun.

  I think I might need a FL inverter? Do you know how do I know which I need and instructions on how to fit it?

  Also I had problems with Windows 7 Professional turning very slowly. I'm assuming that the two problems are not related.

  Hope you can help, thanks.

  Hello

  I recommend connecting an external monitor.
  If the image on the external monitor would be perfect, then your internal screen or inverter maybe FL needs to be replaced.
  You ask how to check this?
  Well, I'm afraid of each part should be checked using another good part tested m.

  In your case I would ask a support specialist
  Guarantee is valid? If yes then I recommend to contact Toshiba service in your country.

• Portege R600-10 q keeps freezing after a short period of use

  Hi I have a Portege R600-10, q,

  It keeps freezing after a short period of use - although if I leave it for a few minutes, sometimes it can be useful.
  If it is turned on for long enough, it will display a blank screen and the fans will turn on very hard.

  I cleaned ports ventilation and re-glued the CPU, and it did not make a difference.

  I ran HDD and memory (mhdd/memtest) diagnostics, and they have all done.

  I reinstalled Windows (from the OEM disc) and I still see the same question.

  Anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem?
  Thank you

  Hello

  Have you noticed that when running special software or apps?

  I can tell you that a memtest does not always provide a good result
  Even if the memtest said there is no problem with memory, RAM modules could malfunction

  Otherwise, it may be a motherboard problem, but this is just speculation

• Portege R600 and Windows 7

  I installed Windows 7 (custom installation). Subsequently installed the Toshiba Setup program to load all the programs/drivers concerned. I have a problem with the screen, especially in Word 2003. That she will all suddenly, distort so that the words become faded/pointed/double, so that you can not read the display. A second open the document in Word will not be affected. Re-opening and closing the particular document clears the problem. The document is late and is not damaged.

  Also found that sometimes when start up or wake up from hibernation, the machine hangs and looks like the fan is working overtime.
  Nothing happen so unless I have a power to force down and restart.

  Finally, the wheel on my mouse (latest Windows 7 drivers installed) will not work to resize a screen of Word and will not work in the folders pane in Outlook 2003.

  Any thoughts?

  See you soon

  Strange! I installed Office 2003 on two laptops Toshiba with Win7 and everything is OK.
  Have you noticed some other display under your Portege R600 Win7 problems, for example in Internet Explorer or other applications running?

• Portege R600 - display problem device change Utility

  We started to use computers laptop Toshiba Portege R600 series on my place of work. 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 occurs when the laptop is not docked since the Replicator. After having similar problems with R500 series laptops, Toshiba following applications have been installed:

  (1) common modules (version 6.06.01)
  (2) controls Toshiba (version 3.31.3800)
  (3) button ON / OFF (version 2.5.1.0_IS115)
  (4) Toshiba utility (version 4.30.18)
  (5) Toshiba screen device change Utility (version 2.5.0.0)
  (6) Toshiba Hotkey utility for display device (version 3.4.5.5)
  (7) Toshiba Mobile extension 3 for XP (version 3.87.00)

  We now have the following symptoms:

  (1) detach, the "gear" icon appears and then the error "TOSHIBA Display Device change Utility is not installed correctly. Please install TOSHIBA screen utility unit of change. "
  (2) for the mooring of the laptop again, we get the "home" icon, and then the same error.
  (3) after that, the external monitor does not become active once again, until what you press Fn + F5.

  I have tried uninstalling / reinstalling the TOSHIBA screen device change utility. Have tried to remove the Mobile Extensions and install the software, tried a number of different things to make it work. Rebuilt 1 stop working and everything was installed in the order above without success. In fact, noted that during the installation of the TOSHIBA utility screen device Change the Setup screen starts and runs, but the window does not uninstall.

  This seems to be a driver problem with those from Toshiba, but I'm not sure. Someone at - it suggestions regarding this? The drivers that I use are on the site of Toshiba Australia (even if they are the same drivers found on the main website of Toshiba). The link below.

• Portege R600 - do I need for Windows 7?

  Hey there. I have a Toshiba Portege R600, my first laptop, and I'm in love.

  I'm angry against Vista Business, but also, I get angry to Windows XP. I would like to give a whirl to Windows 7 since I heard good things about her.
  I now burn a recovery disk as I type. What else do I need? On the desktop, there is a folder called "Applications and drivers TOSHIBA" so I guess I have to save those on a USB and load them onto Windows 7. What if drivers? There is so much and I don't want too many applications, the cluster disk.

  Tips for a first time the laptop computer user?

  > Windows 7 a whirlwind since I heard good things about her.
  I've never heard of Windows 7 good things still
  I think you forget that Windows 7 is only at the stage of beta or as far as I know already a Release Candidate but it s not a final version. So that means it may have a few problems and the pilot in charge is not as good as on Vista or XP.

  However, if you need the Windows 7 drivers you must search on external Web sites for pilots, but sometimes the drivers for Vista also works on Windows 7.
  Check it!

• Portege R600 - 13 X - how to reinstall the operating system on the new HARD drive?

  Hello

  I inherited a Portege R600 - 13 X of my colleague, who hit and killed the hard drive. I installed a new hard drive, but you don't have operating system installation diskettes as he said that the computer has not come with any. To make things even more difficult, I believe that the optical drive may not work. My old R500 had a dead optical drive and after I replaced it (he has not yet worked) I was told it is perhaps something to do with the ribbon cable, which piggy back off the coast of the SD card reader, then to the motherboard.

  Anyway, is it possible for me to install Win 7 Professional (I have the original windows key) from a USB flash drive? Or y at - it a specific OS recovery/reinstallation disk that I can download Toshiba?

  Any advice would be very welcome
  Thank you

  I have a Portege R600, and he has been a formidable workaholic, although now showing its age with newer software.

  I think these machines came with pre-installed Vista and your friend must have created a set of recovery discs when they got off the machine.

  Toshiba did release a drive to upgrade when Windows 7 is released which was available to the buyer within the free upgrade period you. You may be able to find a disk, but you will need the Win7 license to go with it.

  If not, your only option is likely to be to buy a disk and license. Of course, you can find the specific Toshiba drivers are missing. If you think about it, it's extremely unlikely that you will be able to locate what is essentially a free Windows 7 download install disc.

  Without an optical drive, you need to use an external USB drive and the BIOS to boot from that first force.

  I hope that you have succeeded.

• Re: Portege R600 - upgrade to hybrid SSD + Win7

  The R600-4201 is _For far_ the best laptop computer I have ever owned or even seen, and I intend to keep it for as long as possible. I just bought a Seagate Momentus XT hybrid hard drive (SSD + magnetic) and Windows 7 Ultimate edition.

  To support installation hardware and the operating system switching from XP to W7, I will have redundant (more local cloud) perfect backups of data files to e-mail, data files, passwords, etc.

  Can anyone here guide me more access to specific Toshiba updates, drivers, BIOS, etc., should be done? Further guidance or advice will be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you!!!

  I think that this portable 2-book with the new operating system and hard drive will challenge anything on the market today. With radio offshore and with the Transflective screen, I get more of * WORK SIX HOURS * at the park or at the beach - there just isn't any better than that.

  Hi dude

  Thanks for the comments on the Portege R600.
  I like this laptop. I wish that I would have enough money to buy this toy, but I have a u400. It of also great computer laptop not too big... the size of the screen is perfect because I travel a lot

  The Portege R600 supports up to 2 GB SD cards and SDHC cards up to 16 GB.

• Portege R600 and Webcam in Skype functionality

  Hello!

  I tried to get the camera working on the Portege R600 within Skype.

  I got it in the past, but he stopped and now I just get a black screen when I load the video in the settings. I tried specifying the default camera and also the chicony usb 2.0 camera two identical results of both. I updated to the latest version, earlier and removed and he readded in Device Manager. No luck.

  Any ideas? Running fully patched Vista 32 bit

  Hello

  I'm not very well why this happens, but I see that you use the Skype of m.
  Some people have reported some problems with the webcam and 3rd party software like MS messenger and Skype for example. Both applications use the webcam also.

  I think there could be a problem with software compatibility between the software/driver preinstalled webcam and the Skype/MS Messenger

  You said that too that everything has worked in the past, as well, that would be really interesting to know if the problem would be persists using the laptop with the factory settings Toshiba and without a Skype or other additional software installation.

  Good bye

  If the display does not support preferred resolution for you, then you will not be able to select this

• Portege R600 - how to use the external monitor on the docking automatically

  Hi - I just got a new Portege; R600-102. It's a great machine - very light and fast.

  I connect to a Slim port replicator to the office and I wish I could anchor and automatically use the external monitor without opening the laptop. Can someone point me in the right direction on how to do it? This process has worked well on my recently retired Dell X 300.

  More precisely:
  # I have the laptop closed Portégé and standby mode
  # I anchor in the Slim Port Replicator (SPR)
  # I press the button 'on' on the SPR
  # I see the message "recovery windows" and the bars of the countdown on the external monitor. (So I know it's connected and you can see the external monitor)
  # The laptop turns on but use the laptop screen (private) LCD
  # I have to open it and manually tell it 'out to watch.
  What can be automatically?

  Thanks for the tips.

• CPU hit 100% + screen flickering/flashing

  Hi people, I wanted to help with a problem, that I started having recently!

  My CPU seems to be hitting 100% on 5secs or until this particular file with .mp4 files charges completely upwards (when I access .mp4 files), but when I convert them, the screen just flashes / flickers, before the end of conversion.
  I installed need for speed undercover on my laptop 2 months back, ive played and now I try to play the screen flickers once, twice, and soon, it minimizes that I start to play the game, when I click on the tab again he'll come for about a minute of my time to game and then same problem once again It loads well, only sometimes when it loads what's going on, but most of the time is when I start to play the game, because I can't just play this game either, until I get this fixed a problem.

  The system remains calm, but the success of CPU 100% and then the problem starts.

  What could be the problem?

  I would be grateful for any help.

  Thank you

  For you advise adequately requires more information, if you please.

  1. which model Qosmio & OS?
  2. Toshiba provided video drivers or if not from what source?
  3. can you connect an externalmonitor and describe what is happening?
  4. what happens if you run the application conversion 640 x 480?

  It; s a case of trying to diagnose the card video driver or guilty TFT.

• Portege R600-13Z - flickering picture on external monitor

  Hi support them!

  I own an ASUS VW224 VGA monitor and a Portege R600 13Z. Is the native resolution of 1680 x 1050 and directly on VGA cable (do not know if there is a docking station). GPU driver date is 31.03.2010 version 8.15.10.2104 (newest I think).

  The problem is that the screen is blinking. The darker the area displayed the strongest flicker is perceived. It's a "horizontal flicker", like the horizontal lines are pursuing each other up and down the screen. It is very annoying.

  Since the laptop screen itself or the monitor with another computer ASUS show any flickers, I think that the problem is rooted in the described configuration interaction. I can set different settings on the monitor itself. Related to the problem could be 50 and 54 of Phase clock.

  Windows tells me in config monitor refresh rate is 60. However, refresh rates and clock can be set to the same without change.

  The meaning of phase I don't know.
  Any ideas to solve the problem?

  See you soon!

  I think that it comes to the grounding of s.
  Please check if the flicker would be available using the battery power.

  I've been reading about such symptoms on external monitors.
  In most cases the use of the power supply cable 3 cord would solve this problem.
