Portege R700 - 1 DL built in Webcam

Hello world

How can I access the built-in Webcam in my Portege R700 with third party software Polycom PVX, for example, in the control panel of this software, I can choose the webcam of toshiba as a video device, but it does not work (no image)

Thanks in advance for your help

Hello

To be honest, I've never heard of this problem, but if you want to use the webcam with external software such as Skype, you must first close the webcam software. Example of webcam starts with Windows and that you should close it before starting, it is a 3rd party program.

Check this box!

  • Portege R700 webcam goes dark in low light conditions

    Hello

    Since I bought my Toshiba Portege R700 about a year ago I had problems with my webcam. I looked in several forums but couldn't find an answer. My build in webcam has problems of adaptation in the light of the room.

    When the room is dimly lit camera turns almost black after a few seconds. It is interesting enough before the camera darkens, he manages to produce a picture is ok for a few seconds, which means that the camera is capable of producing an image ok in low light conditions.

    She has just problems adjusting the brightness in the room when it is poorly lit. I propose to toshiba update the software of the camera, since it is clearly a matter of software. And yes I've tried every single possible configuration for the camera! And Yes, I also reinstalled (several times) the camera driver.

    I know that the camera performs well in places that have good lighting and so I'm only interested in improving my performance of cameras when not much light is available.

    Thank you very much
    Clem

    Hi dude

    I understand that you would expect webcam great performance in poor light environment but I put t do you think it would be possible to get the good quality photo using the laptop is dark rooms.

    The material of these small internal cams is limited and you see the same issues with other devices like smartphones cameras that resemble the internal cams s notebook.

    In addition, the webcam software that is preinstalled on my laptop Toshiba supports the night mode option that allows you to improve the quality of the obscure image in the Middle but of course you will not get the same image quality if you want to use the cam in the luminous environment

  • Portege R700 - Malware with software pre-installed?

    I recently bought a Portege R700 - very well designed and built with an excellent specification. All is let down by the obnoxious behavior of collusion with Microsoft to send malicious software in the software loaded from Toshiba. It is absolutely inexcusable and unacceptable to load software that removes several times my IE8 homepage settings to replace it with MSN and the bling search engine. I hope I've stalked finally how to remove this MALWARE by editing the registry and delete the entries of thugs.

    (Especially from Toshiba) anyone know how I can ensure it is permanently deleted?

    Can someone give me a good reason why I should not report this behavior for the Commissioners of the European Union for violation of the antitrust settlement with Microsoft?

    I am completely disgusted.

    Hello

    To be honest, I never heard malware with software/OS preinstalled Toshiba or Microsoft.
    I m sure all software that will run are tested for the virus, malware, etc. so I put t think you have malicious software installed on your computer.

    I also use the version preinstalled Windows from Toshiba on my two laptops and all the settings, I've defined in IE8 or other programs have never changed.

    I recommend to install an antivirus program before going online.

  • Portege R700 - slow DVD burning

    all of a sudden for some reason any CD/DVD burn on my new Portege R700 has almost ground to stop. It worked fine initially, but now won't have high peaks of 1 MB/sec... it is a REAL pain...

    The problem occurs with both the DVD player built-in and a USB connected drive that has worked well for years, so there must be a problem with o/s or H/S any. am about to update the BIOS but with no real hope

    I did some research on Google and things seem to point to the IDE controller issues. I took some advice and remove / reinstall the controller, but to no avail...

    someone else has the same problem - or, more importantly, a solution please?

    not easy to say why it is burning so slow. have you tried burning with other discs and programs?

  • Portege R700-17Z - upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit

    Hello

    I currently have a Toshiba Portege R700-17Z.

    I want to increase the amount of RAM from 2 GB to 8 GB, and therefore I want to run 64-bit Windows. I was planning on running a clean reinstall, but 64-bit Windows built into this machine? Or I need a disk full?

    If I need a drive in its own right, any ideas on how to do it without an optical drive?

    Thank you very much!

    The first news on RAM upgrade: you're right. You can upgrade your Portege up to 8 GB and 4 GB compatible modules have part number PA3677U-1M4G.

    According to the specifications of the laptop your Portege shipped with WIN7 32 BIT PROFESSIONAL, but it is supported for Win7 64 bit. 64-bit drivers and tools specific to Toshiba and utility can be downloaded from the Toshiba download page.

    Now what is your decision? If you need assistance with installing the OS let us know.

  • Portege R700 - impossible to pass to Windows 10

    I have a Portege r700 with original Windows 7 OEM installation.

    Windows 7 is updated and program update Windows upgrade me to Windows 10 offer.

    The upgrade process begins very well, download & pre-configures all the stuff, and then finally ask me to reboot the system to continue with the upgrade.

    After a few seconds, the restart process is launched and load... the current Windows 7 system, saying that there was an error during the upgrade process.

    I did some tests; I'm also a fan of Linux, so I tried to boot the system with a LiveCD of my distributions preferred: after loading of the quick menu asking what I want to do (the liveCD boot, installation, diagnose, etc), it restarts... and show me again the quick menu (quick menu is GRUB, kernel functionality has not been loaded right now).

    I understand that 'something' (and I guess it's system restore Toshiba) let me start on something other than the original partition, preventing the upgrade of Windows 10.

    Any idea?

    I was offered the free update on my R700-12U and R930-1DK Toshibas--and did the updates without any problem. However, if I understand it right, the R700 is not on the list of evolutionary units, but it has worked very well on my own, from up-to-date W7.

  • Portege R700-19 t - new RAM-> start is no longer

    Hello together,

    so I bought two new RAM sticks for my old laptop
    Toshiba Portege R700-19 t

    But since I installed them, the machine does not start in an operating system more.
    The installed Windows 7 64 bit goes to a black screen before the windows at Startup logo (even in safe mode). And after a few seconds, the fans will quickly but nothing seems to happen.

    The next thing I tried was a (12.04) ubuntu live dvd. But it does not either. No error message or anything, just an automatic restart after a few seconds of black screen.

    The next thing was memtest86 + v4.20:
    It crashes immediately sometimes a black screen and sometimes at this http://i.imgur.com/eJqIyDp.jpg .
    I tested my new two sticks together and alone, still the same problem. The old ones that work perfectly and not crash of memtest.

    In the BIOS is the only thing on the memory and then it sees the correct "Total memory size 8192 MB.

    In my understanding of both new sticks should work well with my laptop, or am I missing something?

    concerning

    For me, the question is clear enough; the laptop does not start because of new RAM modules.

    The new RAM modules are not totally compatible, or the RAM modules are defective.

    I recommend you test an other modules; for example modules manufactured by Kingston.

  • How to reset the sensor of fingerprint on Portege R700-174?

    Hello!

    my "problem":

    on my portege (r700-174), I run a win7 (which was preinstalled on your laptop), a victory for 8.1. and for some is true the technical preview of win10

    all systems are protected by password and fingerprints.

    also the win10-test system (for test prints digital-utility in win10)

    now, I deleted an old generation of win10 and do a new install with the latest version

    Unfortunately I forgort to cancel the registration of the fingerprint I had entered with this old win10 - so now this finger cannot be used
    to be entered for the new win10 (or any other system)

    My question

    is it possible to reset it completely (clear all the fingerprints for all systems) the fingerprintscanner out of one of my systems running or to cancel the registration of the
    Fingerprints for this system, which does not exist anymore on my portege?

    Thanks for the tips

    Kurt

    The fingerprints are stored on the fingerprint sensor and you will need to follow the instructions of this Toshiba document to remove your scans of fingerprints.
    http://www.MyToshiba.com.au/support/items/FAQ/386

    In the case that this procedure does not work, only the Toshiba certified maintainer would be able to erase fingerprints users digital related privacy information on the fingerprint sensor fingerprint flash.

  • Portege R700-S1321 - cannot set the resolution of 1366 x 768

    I have exactly the same problem, as shown in:

    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=64809

    The resolution of the laptop to random times and intervals seems to support a maximum of 1280 x 700, which translates into a 2 inch black bar on the right side and the button start Windows 7 off the screen.

    Currently its stuck in the resolution of the screen and no matter what I may not make it back to normal 1366 x 768.

    External monitors very well with the laptop work.

    Its 2.20 BIOS execution that seems to me later.

    It seems that the intel driver must get some information that is incorrect.
    Research on different forums and using moninfo, I see that the internal display does not support EDID and settings appear to be set by the registry somehow.

    I also tried to make an EDID override by creating an inf file that is customized with Moninfo, but appears not to the question of the effect.

    I also tried to restore from the recovery many times discs without success.
    During the installation of windows occurs, the screen is fine.
    When Toshiba additional programs are added to the screen returns to the 1280 x 700.
    I suspect that what happens when the graphics driver intel is installed.

    If I boot the laptop in safe mode resolution is 1366 x 768, which seems to suggest that it is the driver who has a problem.

    Anyone else had this issue and understand how to fix it? I see also that intel do not support EDID override.

    Any idea is appreciated. Thank you.

    > If I boot the laptop in safe mode resolution is 1366 x 768, which seems to suggest that it is the driver who has a problem.

    I think you are on the right track, and I think that his untimely pilot.
    That's why I recommend you to uninstall the Intel graphics driver in Device Manager.

    PORTEGE R700-S1321 was equipped with the Intel® Core i5 - 520 M processor and this processor supports the Intel® HD graphics card

    The latest Intel HD driver can be downloaded directly from the page of Intel:
    [Driver for Intel Core with Intel HD Graphics processors | https://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Graphics& ProductLine = graphic + portable + pilots & ProductProduct = Intel % C2% AE + Core E2% 84% A2 + processors + with + Intel % 2 C % AE + HD + Graphics & ProdId = 3231 & LineId 1101 = & FamilyId = 39]

    I need to download the zip package.
    Then you can install the driver through Device Manager by using the Advanced installation procedure. This allows you to link directly to this zip package. Windows system would automatically take the driver. After restarting again you that would have settled the last drivers and you should change your resolution.

  • Cannot use 8 GB in Portege R700

    Hello

    I had 2 x 2 GB PC3 10600 ram in my R700 (i3) running Windows 7 x 64.

    I have a few sticks of 4 GB of ram, I wanted to update my laptop 8 GB total.

    I put in the memory which consists of:
    1 x 4 GB PC3 12800
    1 x 4 GB PC3 10600

    The laptop comes on the screen where it says "Starting Windows" and looks like it freezes before windows animation.

    If I try to use 1 x 4 GB (two speeds) and 1 x 2 GB, then Windows starts fine, but there is a problem when I use both the 4 GB sticks.

    I tested the ram with Memtest and they pass the tests.

    If I put the bars of 4 GB of RAM in a R840 (Windows 8.1 Pro), it starts very well.
    If I put the bars of 4 GB of RAM in a R700 (i5 running Windows 8.1 Pro), this also starts very well.

    If I try to put in the sticks of 2 x 4 GB of ram in the R700 i3 and trying to install Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 then happens to the screen that says "Windows is loading files" and the progress bar ends but then the screen goes all white and the fan runs but nothing else happens.

    I have 8 GB of ram in the R700 i3, so I don't know that it supports. The BIOS detects it has 8 GB of ram when I inserted them and the BIOS is updated to the latest version which is 2.20 iirc.

    Anyone can shed light on the problem?

    Hi Borito

    If the specification states that your model of laptop can handle with 8 GB of RAM, that we should not discuss this topic.
    By RAM upgrade is important to use 100% compatible and two modules of identical RAM (same specifications).
    I tested it on my machine using too much standard and a cheap RAM and my machine was dead. With two modules of identical RAM, everything is OK.

    Can you please send the name of the exact model of your laptop Portege (R700-xxx) and I'll try to find the exact reference for 4 GB of RAM for this model of laptop.

  • Portege R700 - original recovery image re-failed installation

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Portege R700 for years.
    As I have already some difficulties, I did a reinstall it a few years since the recovery partition. Directly.

    But, a few days ago, I had some problems with my portege.
    HARD drive seems to be broken because it making the noise and was really, really, really,..., very slow.
    Yes, after you perform a backup of the data for hours and hours (remember, it was really, really slow), I run a complete reinstallation of "recovery partition". It seems to be good, but... never finished the process, with the same noise from HDD and slower HARD drive IO.

    OK, my own diadnostic: change the HARD drive.
    This done, and by using the recovery DVD Toshiba just bought (Yes cannot find the DVD of burn of factors), I have the same question.... The recovery process does not end even if im waiting for days...
    And I have the same HARD drive noise. With the new!

    In order to have an MSDN license, I installed a Win7 Pro 32 bit, but not the Toshiba one.

    And he is running for days without any problem!

    But I have to reinstall all the drivers and software supplied by Toshiba.

    Obviouly I prefer to find what exactly is the problem with this Portege and reinstall the version of Toshiba Windows 7 Pro.

    So, if someonre read the story until the question is: NO IDEA?
    How to do a HW diagnosed? How to identify the exact problem?

    Thanks for your help.

    Joel

    It is really strange. You bought brand new HARD drive or you use a old and used as a replacement?
    Have you used recovery disks in the past with success? I mean maybe it's the recovery disc a troublemaker.

  • Portege R700 - quick as lightning!

    Despite some reports of 'flaky' and similar operation, I decided to tear off my HARD drive and slap a SSD and W7 Pro 64 bit on my portege R700-184

    flippin heck its the thing to the top fast!

    I used a base of sandforce OCZ Vertex 2 120 GB drive and the Retail Media to install the 64-bit windows. It's with any other firmware or software update for the SSD or Laptop, so right on the box

    Before starting from cold to 95 seconds, down to 23 seconds on the SSD used! and he wakes up from his sleep in 4 seconds! VERY impressed!

    Similarly the 64-bit operating system has improved my WEI scores the CPU is 6.5 to 6.9, the RAM of 5.4 to 5.9 and obviously the SSD took a hard drive of 5.9 to a burning 7.4 :-)

    excellent upgrade in the embryonic stages, I will present long-term stable after that I have all my drivers and running upward and restore my files!

  • Portege R700 Wont close or install W7 SP1

    Hello

    I have a Portege R700 for a few months and then only a brilliant notebookI'm having some trouble that I can't find the answer to. I thought I would post the two they could possibly be interrelated.

    First of all, when I am running on battery only my computer usually off. It gets to the Windows stops screen and just hangs. After all of 10 minutes, I have generally give up and manually turn off the machine by holding the power button. This is my desktop computer, it is very rarely used on battery so I have not really worried about it but I want to fix. Also when I use my machine on port replicator, at the office, when I shut down my computer what it comes up with the screen that a program is not responding and force close. I find it strange because there is no program running in time (of course there is probably a background running program).

    The second problem I encounter is that I am trying to install Windows 7 SP1 via the full download of the Microsoft Web site, but when it comes to install the update I get the following error:

    ERROR_SXS_ASSEMBLY_MISSING (0 x 80073701)

    I did a search on the web for answers, but all of the patches described did not work. My only other option might be a complete reinstallation of Windows that I hated doing.

    If anyone has solutions that would be great.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Why you are not allowing Windows Update to install updates to the machine? This method usually solves 90% update install problems as the update manager download only the sections of service pack required for your installation/version/version of windows 7?

    How does closing? by pressing the power button or by using the windows menu Start button stop?

    When on the port replicator the error message said exactly? What is the name of the program?
