  Hello, MatchWhat

  Are you always problems with your computer or run the system update readiness tool solves the problem?

  KB947821 is the tool of the system update, this isn't an update, it rather is a tool that will scan and fix of inconsistencies that may prevent the updates install correctly.

• Portege R700 - BIOS-update 2.20 - WIN does not work

  I have a Portege R700-172-PT311E-03201KGR
  It's a WIN 7 64 bit Machine.

  Current BIOS 1.70
  EC-current Version: 1.40

  For this machine, an update of the BIOS and IT's there.
  So I downloaded the "BIOS220_EC160.exe" update and tried to treat.

  The first message during the update process is: "it is necessary to update the BIOS and THIS.
  When I continue with "Run the update", I get the error message:
  "Error: preparation of updated failed.
  Given the image file is not compatible with this cimputer.

  There is no change in the material of the machine. The only problem I see is that we use McAfee Endpoint Encryption (V6.0.2.6) that could have some influence on the update of the BIOS.

  But I'm not sure.
  Does anyone have an ideas?

  Hello

  BIOS update is important to you?
  Do you have problems with the laptop?

  I have portable three-year-old BIOS was did not updated

  However, AFAIK the VAP (value added package) must be to get the updated BIOS updated. Also the firewalls and other security and antivirus preinstalled on the system software must be disabled before attempting to update the BIOS.

  1. as a first step the touchpad scrolling has worked well (with no driver installed) but then it works more... so I tried a driver but
  2. There is no driver for the touchpad (Alps) which is recognized as a compatible mouse PS
  BTW, uninstalling and reinstalling didn't work and I searched a lot on the web but found no solution.

  Appreciated advice, thank you.

  Simone

  Hello

  > I downloaded the drivers for VISTA 64 bit, is it safe to use?
  Yes, it s safe you can try to install the drivers for the touchpad for Vista in the worst case, you will get an error message that this driver is not compatible or will not work.

  But look man there is Win 7 Alps and Synaptics touchpad drivers for Win 7.
  The drivers were released for other series of laptop.
  Check the Satellite L500 area for example

  I have Win 7 64 bit drivers.
  Synaptics v14.0.11.0

• Portege R700 - cannot update the BIOS

  Hello
  I recently bought a Portege R700 19 M and I downloaded the latest BIOS version available in the Toshiba support page and when I run the .exe file, it does not work with this message: "the computer is not supported.
  And when I look in the HWSetup Toshiba tool, it does not display the BIOS version but some weird characters (letters not usual) so I can't find out which version is installed.
  Thank you for your help

  Hey Buddy,

  You update the BIOS to the version preinstalled Windows from Toshiba?
  Are you logged on as administrator when you try the update?

  To be honest I doubt a problem to update the BIOS because I found other threads where users report that BIOS update was successful.

• Portege R700 - how to replace the optical disk drive?

  Hello
  I would like to replace the optical disc drive (ODD) with a Solid State Drive (SSD) on my Portege R700.
  So my first question is: what is the way to remove the STRANGE?

  And my second question is: can I replace it with a Caddy drive HARD ICY BOX IB-AC642 or Akasa AK-OS2SSA-BK?
  Interface SATA caddy fits with the WEIRD interface?

  Thank you for your answer

  Hello

  It s really complicated because the STRANGE is placed inside and remove it you must remove all the screws that fix the bottom cover.

  I wouldn't, because you will lose the warranty.
  More I doubt you could get the second HDD to work in ODD Bay.
  I think that this is not supported
  Just the laptop s as Portege M400, M700, M750, Tecra M9, S3 or S4 with a select Bay slim support would treat the 2nd HDD instead of ODD.

• Portege R700 - how to clean the keyboard keys?

  Hello
  I have a Toshiba Portege R700 - and I spilled coke on a small part of the keyboard.
  Not surprisingly, the two or three keys are now "sticky."

  Is it as simple as access to the keyboard and the relevant keys of cleaning?
  Or is it not that simple?
  If I can do this, is there a pictorial guide on access to the keyboard?

  I'm reluctant to open first without consulting the tech manual.

  Thank you

  Hello

  In my opinion, you will not be able to clean it properly. Coke is full of sugar. It can be complicated, but you can try it.

  In the worst cases, you must exchange he keyboard.
  So what you need to do is to remove Cap key for each critical button. It is set with small farmers in plastic. Just take something like the credit card but more stabile, put under the key cap and try to remove it. Under the key CAP is little key mechanism. Try to clean it with a damp cloth. Be careful and clean without a lot of pressure.

  When you think it's OK place the key cap and press it very gently of course.

  You'll hear the clicking noise and the cp key should be up again.

  I hope that you will be able to make it work again.
  Please post comments.

• Portege R700: How turn off WLAN when the connection to the local network is available

  Hello

  I am the owner of Portege R700, with Windows 7 x 86.
  I want to find a way to disable WLAN automatically when I plug Ethernet.

  I tried to enable the following setting:

  "Device Manager", "Network Adaptaters", "Broadcom 802.11n", 'Advanced', 'Disable on cable connection' = enable. "

  But it does not work. Do you have another idea for me?

  Thank you in advance.

  Hello

  I think that to do this automatically, you should not use certain software/tools for part 3.
  Looks like applications BridgeChecker or protective Wireless does this job very well.

  Check that a feedback would be appreciated.

• Portege R700 - why no 64 don't bit OS?

  Something I'm not quite suite.
  I like the look of and the weight of the portege but doesn't understand why I can't buy one in the United Kingdom with the 64-bit windows professionals.

  I mean 32-bit should only be able to treat up to 3 to 3.5 GB.
  They are sold with up to 4 and all the ads suggest that they can be expanded up to 8 GB.
  Or can anyone direct me to someone to sell with the 64-bit operating system.

  Hmm the Portégé R700 - 106 has been delivered with preinstalled WIN7 64 BIT PROFESSIONAL and in addition you would get Win XP DVD.

  But this can depand on R700 laptop model...

• Updating Win 7 32 Bit to Win 7 64 bit with the same product key

  Hey,.

  I bought a laptop computer where is installed Win 7 Pro 32 Bit. Now, I want to install Win 7 pro 64 bits with the same product key. I have the required software. Is this possible?

  Yes, you can use the same product key to install and activate the 64-bit version.

  You will need to do a clean install, there is no place on the way to upgrade Windows 7 32 bit to 64 bit.

  Using the disk of 64-bit Windows 7, install Windows 7 Windows Easy Transfer Utility from the DVD (to find it, simply navigate to x:\support\migwiz, "x:" is the name of your hard drive. (In this case, you will see a collection of files, the important"that you must search for and double-click is 'migsetup'.) run it and create a DAMP (Windows Easy Transfer file), if you have an external hard drive, you can access it later when you perform a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit disk so you can stored there.

  Once you have done this, just do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit disc. In Windows 7 64 bit disk, start Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the applications needed.

  http://www.notebooks.com/2009/10/07/using-Windows-easy-transfer-in-Windows-7/

  Boot from the DVD 64 bit Windows 7

  Click Install now

  Accept the license agreement

  When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

  Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

  You will receive the following warning:

  The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

  (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

  The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

  Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

  You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

• updating Win 7 32 bit to Win 7 64 bit with output formatting of HARD drive?

  For some reason any my Panasonic Toughbook came with Win 7 Pro 32-bit. The material is prepared according to manufacturer 64-bit. Who could ever think about buying the PC like this (quad CPU, 8 GB of RAM etc) is preloaded with 32-bit? In any case, I talked to people from panasonic, they say, it is not necessary to wipe the HARD drive to upgrade to 64 - bit. and sent the links to the drivers to install and procedures how to. The qUESTIONs ARE! Is it still possible? All programs and apps will work after installation? I'll be able to access the windows after upgrade. If I do a backup of files and settings in 32 bits can restore 64-bit so only the lost data? If not successful can I use same license key 32-bit here to install Win 7 Pro 64 bit. Has it been done before?

  Thank you for all the input

  As the computer was supposed to be provided with 32-bit Windows and 8 GB of RAM their technical knowledge should be considered as somewhat suspect. 32-bit Windows can access up to 3.2 GB (approx.) of RAM, it should be 4 GB, but for technical reasons, it can not, 8 GB would be useless.

  According to the original age of the computer, it only used to be quite true 64 bit software so if a computer has 4 GB of RAM or less, there was little interest in installing Windows x 64. Windows 7 x 64 increases the required minimum memory of 1 GB 2 GB same 4 GB of RAM is questionable, to get an advantage, that it should be more.

  I suspect the specifications of basic material for the system was such that the image of the master has x 32 and nobody at Panasonic said that if they offered an option for 8 GB they needed to provide a revised image.

  Normally OEM software provided as 32-bit or 64-bit, you don't get together in the peloton to the difference in detail so there may be a limitation as to what technique you can install. Then of course there is the problem of knowing where you are going to get the operating system. If the recovery of Panasonic's 32-bit all you have. Unless Panasonic brings that put you with a recovery disc 64-bit, you will need to provide your own license. You obviously have a case if they provided the spec of 8 GB to request a package of them FOC, but I doubt if they will respect.

• Portege R700 - how to upgrade the BIOS?

  Hello

  I'm trying to update the BIOS of my R700 computers with a command line on Windows 7 (x 86 edition french).
  I am using the version of the BIOS is P007Bv170_EC73V140.

  I downloaded the bios - 20101112151130.zip official website of Toshiba. In the zip file, there is no statement (no file Readme.txt or other help... files).

  Is there a way to upgrade in silent mode in the BIOS?
  Thank you for your help,

  Vincent

  Hey,.

  You need to run the exe file you will find in archive zip you downloaded. After this update the BIOS will start.

  But before this update, unzip all files and close all running programs. Also, make sure that you are logged on as administrator.
