• Satellite M300 - Webcam is either disabled or has not

  I tried to uninstall & reinstall the driver and software of webcam, however no still no chance. It's a M300-PSMD8A-03H00G running Vista 32-bit, with a built-in webcam and I get the error message is...
  "webcam is either disabled or has failed." Please check your webcam settings. »

  The only support for this model download is an update of the BIOS with no explanation of what she updates, patches or fixes. Which is pretty ordinary to say the least.

  There seems to be a lot of people having problems with Vista service pack 2 (SP2) that killed the WIFI, but since roll back to SP1, the WIFI now works again. The webcam stopped working around the same time that the installation of SP2, however cancellation has not resolved the problem of the webcam.

  Ideas, any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  What assistant webcam software you have reinstalled exactly? I ask this question because the Web from Toshiba site presents only an update of the BIOS for Vista.
  Theoretically the laptop webcam to another software should work also on yours. Check this box!

  By the way: the BIOS would be worth a try. If the driver webcam doesn t work for you, try update BIOS!

• 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 - 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?

  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.

  It is not easy to discuss these issues.

• Portege R700 - Touch Pad, ecoUtility and presentation of the key does not

  Hello

  I got a Portege R700 with Windows 7 64 bit.
  This machine starts very slowly after the log in user mode only.
  The system is waiting for 1 to 2 Minutes before you can work. In administrator mode erverything is fine and fast.

  Thus our directors thought it might be the Toshiba Software and a lot has been disabled or uninstalled.
  Because this did not help and because I thought that it migt be cause of Kaspersky, I started to reinstalled and update the software from Toshiba. Most of it works now. Shortcut keys does not work, then I start TfcRst.exe via autostart now, even he would somehow it would be better in 'systemecommencent '.

  But still some keys do not work. The Tablet touch power switch, just above the touch pad does not work.
  The Fn F9 works. And the two keys to the right upper corner (ecoUtility/off button and the presentation-Key) do not work. In all three major, I get a pop up saying "this function not taken in charge.

  Anyone has any idea of this?

  Thank you

  Solomon_de

  Hello

  Why you n t try to restore the operating system back to the same state until the administrator has removed or uninstalled the Toshiba Software?

  Generally speaking the VAP (value added package) controls the multimedia keys.
  Also the FN keys require the VAP and Flash memory card Support utility.

• Portege R700, Windows 7, mounted sudden fan/cpu, freeze and force stop

  Hello

  I have a persistent problem that starts to become annoying... Portege 700 running Windows 7. Normal use (office, WMP, IE anything heavy)

  No apparent reason (no new requests started for example), there is a sudden increase in the speed of the fan which should be max (looks it takes off) and I suspect use of the processor at the same time. And it's that it's not simply to stop (I left for awhile on occasion) and does not match an input (keyboard or mouse). The only 'solution' is to use the power button to force a shutdown. (And then I lose all cookies etc. when starting again).

  I did a lot of Googling on that. Thought it was WMP network sharing Service and has taken measures to see, but have recently disabled that service and still the problem occurs... (I checked that it is always disabled when just rebooted).

  I keep as 'clean' as I can (have AV installed, use ccleaner regularly etc etc) so would be surprised if a virus/worm, but am running a scan again just in case...

  This happens quite often be a pain - and I have no idea what is the cause, if any ideas gratefully received.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  I m no owner on the site Web of Toshiba Portege R700 but I found an article that describes EXACTLTY the same problem. High activity of its use and CPU fan, then it freezes :(
  Here is the link to this article:

• Portege R700 Finger Print Reader suddenly not recognized OS

  Hello

  I've been looking for a solution

  My R700 on Win7 worked perfectly using the finger print scanner. At any given time without cause the
  hardware (fingerprint reader to log on) was not recognized by the operating system more.

  -J' tried to remove the software, reinstalled driver
  -updated it and so on resulting material was not found.
  -J' even deleted all the entries in the register - no go.

  -Finger Print genuine software starts, but only to give an error that the FP-reader is not present.

  Is there a way to remove the fingerprint stored manually by removing the manually.

  The equipment works according to the support. (The machine has been send)
  However I don't want to re-setup of the entire machine (it is a work laptop) just to make it work?

  Intro step by step to achieve this or advice?

  I couldn't find a description on how to manually remove fingerprints (cause I suspect this is the problem) from the software to do this does not start.

  Any input would be appreciated.

  Best regards
  Julian

  If you do not see material unresolved fingerprints or devices in Device Manager, then the device is either disabled in the BIOS or the fingerprint sensor is defective or too loose or there is a spill of liquid causing corrosion.

• Portege R700 and Win 7 Update detects not SP1

  Hello

  I have a Portege R700-1E8 with Win7 Pro.
  WinUpdate detects no SP1, but it has detected the other updates and installed their (the SO is enabled).

  If I install SP1 manually (downloaded as iso from Microsoft Download site file) it seems to be installed without problems.
  Yet, I picked up the phone to the original state and tried to detect the windows updates again.

  There are many upgrades available, but without SP1 AND IE9.

  Any ideea?
  Thank you

  Costin

  Hello

  > If I install SP1 manually (downloaded as iso from Microsoft Download site file) it seems to be installed without problems.

  So where is the problem if you were able to install SP1 manually?
  I had also some problems to install the patches in the past, that I could not install patches after system reboot and disable a 3rd party firewall, I could install necessary updates who received automatically by Windows 7.

  However, SP1 can be installed manually and it should be possible to install other patches automatically, so in this case, I wouldn't be worried

• 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.
  
  Plug portable-mem from toshiba:

  • Standard: 4 (2 + 2) GB
  • Max Speicherausstattung: 8 GB
  • Technology: DDR3 RAM (1,066 MHz)

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

  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.

• 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.
