Portege Z830 - effect of skin if on mains so touch the metal casing

Hello

If I use my Z830 with the power supply to the socket (220V) and I touch the case with my hands, I feel the "electricity" with my hands.

It s an effect of skin if a current flows through the metal.
Anyone have the same feeling.

If I remove the power supply and battery everything is fine.

Is it dangerous for the user?

Jürgen

Hello

This effect is noticeable using laptop computer that supports a metal case.
This effect is known to me and I also read in other threads on this topic:
For example:

You can use a three-pin power adapter. This would avoid this effect.

    I agree with Akuma, some Windows 7 drivers are compatible but many drivers Win 7 problems to Win 8.

    In addition, you should try to turn off the laptop, press Windows key + X and then choose stop.

    The point is that Win 8 be hybrid mode if you n t press Win + X key so that closing.

    Here's a tip:

  • Screen turns black and shuts off when wakes up Portege Z830 - 11M

    Hi all

    Anyone know what could be the reason for the screen goes black and turns off when the laptop wakes up?
    The laptop is Toshiba Portege Z830 - 11 M W7HP, purchased in September.

    The problem started shortly after I bought the laptop, but gradually began with a period of 1-2 seconds black screen whenever I tried to wake the portable computer of fashion 'sleep'. He didn't look like a regular part "blackout" of the wake-up process so I just tried to ignore it, but it started to happen more often recently. It got really worse after two months of use and the black screen two or three times until I'm at the login screen. The error was also difficult to re-create because it was random. Sometimes, the screen went black once sometimes twice or just blinked for a fraction of a second.

    Yesterday, I worked during the day and at night it turned really bad. The screen went black several times, whenever I went back to work after a short break.
    I changed the laptop off when I'm done, but when I turned back on it in the morning, the screen was just black. I tried to use the touchpad, but it is only the screen on the gray.

    Can anyone suggest what to do?

    So finally that cannot start the laptop is Hmm normal?
    It would be interesting to know if this help:
    -Battery adapter and ac removal
    -Press and hold power button do this for 30 sec
    -Then reconnect both sides.
    Turn on the laptop?

    If this is not good enough, you're in trouble I guess its hardware related issue and in this case you must service help

  • Portege Z830 - restoration and reconstruction

    I have a Portege Z830 who plays up!.

    I tried to load on the main drivers of function and a few other utilities toshiba to get the lit keyboard, IE helps high and low BRIGHTNESS keys. It did not work.

    Since then, my laptop takes centuries start, I can't use windows update, it crashes and he asks me my password but I can not enter as it crashes again.
    If I use windows troubleshooting tool, which weighs too much. And internet Explorer within the win8.1 does not even the bbc.

    I'm close enough to think that I have to do a full rebuild.

    My challenge is that it is installed with Windows 7 and I have upgraded to windows 8 and 8.1.

    My questions are:
    1. everyone knows what precedes and is there quick ways to solve the above problems.
    2. What is the best way to rebuild my laptop, I have to go back to windows 7 and then upgrade to windows 8 again?

    Ideas gratefully received, I'm ok, reconstruction not eager not to there because it takes forever to backup and restore, and I must be missing something. But I think its necessary.

    As far as I know that the Portege or Satellite Z830 series was not supported to win 8.1 by Toshiba because he did not appear in the Windows 8.1 compatibility matrix.

    This means also to win 8.1 drivers or software for this series isn't available and not downloadable. This could be the reason why you n t get some special features for laptop.

    From my point of view of a few you might try to fix the Win 8.1 preinstalled using the repair feature s own system. If this doesn t help, I'm afraid, you need to restore the system of m.

    Are you what is the best way to rebuild the laptop?
    Well, it depends on the operating system.

    The Portege Z830 was pre-installed with Win 7. In this case the use of the Toshiba recovery disc install Win 7 again.
    If you want to reuse 8.1 Win, you have two choices: either you would update the Win 7 system-> 8-> 8.1 Win Win
    Or you buy the Win 8.1 Microsoft license and install own 8.1 win on this laptop.

    But as I said above: the drivers Win 8.1 and the software isn't available for this model

  • Portege Z830: I want to disable internal LCD and use only the external monitor

    I have a Toshiba Portege z830.
    I use my laptop in "Extended desktop", mode with an external monitor, which is the main display.
    In this mode, the two screens are still on, but I want the built-in LCD screen to be opened only when I use it.

    Is this possible?
    Thank you.

    Hello

    In my opinion, this is not possible.
    In extended mode, you use and display internal but extended and the long part is visible on the external monitor.
    In such a case its any that your external monitor is set as main display.

    If you want to use an external monitor only, you can only export the video signal on external monitor by pressing FN + F5

  • Portege Z830-M110 - need to make an ISO of my Windows 7 - How to file?

    Hello world

    Would you please let me know for the OEM to Windows 7 64 bit on my Portege Z830-M110, how can I make ISO file?
    I need to reinstall my Windows on a new SSD. I need to remove the current one and re-install WIndows again. I need to have the Windows CD that I don't have. My Windows is pre-installed on my Toshiba laptop that I bought in 2012-2013.

    I noticed that I can browse "Toshiba Media recovery Creator". I have the file on my laptop but it is not installed. I went through the drivers, but there is no software to download and install to make this option active. I noticed there is a download of the utility on the Australian website with 2.1.5.5109 version for PT225A - 00400G rather than my PT224E-01001YAR and I do not know if I have to install that!

    I see it on the table to display Toshiba Portege Z830-10N is not able to be upgraded to Windows 10 why is - this? The laptop is not that old, and the system is quite high spec as far as I know. I tried yesterday and it has been initialized to offshore, but without any reason. Can someone let me know why?

    I thank... Paul

    Have Z830.

    Recently upgraded to Win10 after invitation to Microsoft to improve the system. The process was smooth, but in the end got 5 unknown devices in the system, including Web camera. So goodbye video Skype.
    More functional keys work but only OSD system (windows) are displayed - don't know how power 3D modem for example.

    First impression of Win10 - no real advantage compared to Win7.
    If not find a solution for my problems in 1-2 months - will return to the registered system.

    Someone managed with 10 windows on Z830?

    Good luck

  • USB 3.0 issues with Portege Z830 & Renesas electronic drivers

    Hi all

    I have a Toshiba Portege Z830. Until today I have use any pendrive USB 3.0 external. I bought a Kingston HyperX, but when I try to use it, the port recognizes the drive, but disappears in a few seconds...

    Also when I use a port USB 2.0 back, it displays the unit, but it cannot read the contents of the USB drive.

    I checked in internet forums, and I see similar cases, but not a clear solution...

    More information:

    1. the disc works if I restart windows on SafeMode (Windows 7-64 bit)
    2. the disc works on other computers (without electronic drivers Renesas).

    I think it's a problem of Renesas electronic drivers, but I've updated, installed the modern version, power usb change, etc. but no solution...

    This ultrabook is an expensive appliance, as well as the USB key, and of course, this should be a solution...

    Thank you for your help

    Hello

    I downloaded the latest 2.1.28.0 USB 3.0 v driver available from the Toshiba UE driver page.
    The fichiers.ini (64 bit driver) contains information that this USB 3.0 host controller driver is developed by Renesas Electronics Corporation.

    I read a lot about the problems of USB 3.0 as part of different devices to USB 3.
    The questions are not related to a specific manufacturer for laptop or device in most of the cases it s a compatibility issue between the two devices, I think that's most of the time impossible to test all USB 3.0 flash drives, HARD drive, etc. with different controllers USB 3.0 for compatibility problems always seems

    I found a 3rd party page where you can find a few other drivers USB 3.0 of Renesas and NEC. But the use of these drivers is at your risk and perils do not know if they work properly.
    http://www.station-drivers.com/page/Renesas.htm

    I think you might have to force windows to use the specified driver, then first choose "Browse my computer dethrone" and then "Let me pick from a list of device drivers...". ». This must be done in the Device Manager.

  • Portege Z830 - Bios password change/remove

    You can delete it in the BIOS options directly or using Toshiba tool in Windows supervisor password utility.
