Problem webcam with satellite U300 - 151 Skype running

Please can someone help. I just bought a satellite U300 151 and have found that the web cam is not working. I use Skype for my video over ip and all I see is a black screen.

Someone at - it ideas.

I'm not a grumpy, so please keep the simple answers.

Thank you very much.

If you use the Vista operating system then a SP1 should fix this annoying problem.

I also found this Toshiba document:

[Integrated Webcam may not respond after wake computer from sleep state: 077 http://askiris.toshiba.com/ToshibaSupportSite/search.do;jsessionid=A42AE5A8B59DBDA1AB02F3FB5A11F? cmd = displayKC & docType = kc & externalId = 1924621xml & sliceId = & dialogid = 41219194 & stateId = 0% 200% 05 20412176]

Maybe it helps if yes, let me know

  • Satellite U300-151 plant of the standby or sleep mode extended when WIFI is turned on

    I have a new satellite U300-151. BIOS V3.80 and Intel version 11.5.0.32 wireless (which seems to be the latest driver). Vista SP1

    When return to work of the standby or hibernation mode laptop still crashes if the wireless switch is enabled.

    I am aware that it is an issue being discussed in a number of forums, but apart from references hopeful to SP1 and drivers, that I have not fallen on a solution. SP1 does not appear to have helped to solve my problem.

    All responses - thanks.

    My knowledge of the SP1 could makes some problems because not all drivers are compatible with the new Vista service package.

    The laptop goes down without installing SP1?

  • Satellite U300-151 - halftone color display

    Everyone,

    I bought a new Satellite U300-151 laptop w Vista 32 bit on board, installed the latest patches (display, bios, etc.) and at some point (unfortunately I can't say where it started) I came for a display problem.

    Namely, color settings are 32 bits of depth and it seems that is not enough colors so it starts to prevaricate objects and their production nickname big pixels.

    When I roll it back to 16-bit, the colors become smoother crapped but also because they are really different from the other screens I have.

    People on this thread of the forum say that it can be connected with the BIOS. I have just flashed the 3.9 most recent so if someone at - there a solution to my problem or just more old BIOS it would be very appreciated.

    Dear Petr

    Satellite U300 laptop is new model with, I think, guarantee valid and the best thing to do is to contact the service provider authorized in your country. They exchange defective hardware component (poster or graphics card).

    Please don't get me wrong, but I don't really see anything that you can do it alone.

    One last thing: if possible please test with external monitor. If the problem persists, the graphics card must be defective and the motherboard should be replaced.

  • Laptop with Satellite U300-153 wireless connectivity problem

    I bought a laptop model Toshiba Satellite U300-153. I liked the laptop for its impressive looks and simplicity. But I am facing a problem with its WiFi connectivity. It shows * LIMIT CONNECTIVIY * and cannot browse the Internet. It shows the APIPA ip address.

    Help me solve this problem. Without WiFi, I can't imagine a laptop...

    Thanks in advance

    There are a few general options that must be verified.
    First check if your WLan driver can be updated.
    Second, you must Access the properties of the Protocol TCP/IP of WLan and must check if all options are set for the automatic.

    Last but not least all firewall settings should be checked also. Most incorrect security settings might prevent the internet connection.

  • My experience with Satellite U300 after zapping Vista

    Hi all

    New to the forum but I would like to share my re-love of my laptop computer with you all.

    First of all, I'm a big fan of Toshiba.

    My wife has one and after several bad experiences with cheap laptop, I decided to splash out on a Qosmio, a few years ago. Absolutely brilliant. Very well build / design feature.

    However as I started to travel it has proved difficult to wear so I decided to buy a Toshiba Satellite U300. Look at the business, very good for the price.

    Only slight downside is feeling a little low cost keyboard, but other that it looked all good.

    Then I pulled up and all the problems started.

    1 slow at startup.
    2 would often freeze after the connection.
    3. slow to do anything whatsoever under Vista.
    4. install a 3 G modem that constantly froze.
    5. connection to a local network could cause it to freeze.
    6. constant blue screen of death.

    He referred to John Lewis and got a replacement.
    It was slightly better but still frozen a lot!

    I was very frustrated because I had ZERO problems with my Qosmio.

    I decided to skip Vista and see if my WinXP SP2 makes a difference, or if it was a hardware problem...

    Put XP on has proven difficult as the drive not recognized Toshiba help would have been appreciated on this but has managed to translate the Spanish site in forums and installed.

    WOW

    * What difference is not only my portable stable but it is fast! * do not play fast, but I can do most things with very little lag.

    * Large notebook * Toshiba Vista is more about it... Would have liked an option but the laptop with XP not Vista...

    Thanks for these useful information about you experience.
    I can confirm this too. The Vista operating system needs a lot of material resources as first OS it is XP.
    This is why all computers run slower with Vista as with XP but I think that it is nothing exceptional, due to the fact that Vista supports new features such as Aero, new photo and video files, Direct10X, etc.

  • Compatibility memory with Satellite U300-11V

    Will be 2x2gb DDR2 PC2-6400 800 mhz SO-DIMM nergjivani my Satellite U300-11V?

    Hello

    According to this site, you can use the DDR2 667 MHz (PC2-5300) 200 - PIN SODIMM barrettes.
    http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=31981&ft=m&St=3

    As far as I know there is only one difference between the PC2-5300 and module PC2-6400.
    Support of the PC2 - 5300 667 MHz and 800 Mhz PC2-6400.
    The U300 comes with 667 Mhz modules. If a module supports 667 Mhz and 800 Mhz on media other then the two modules will run at 667 Mhz.
    So if you want to use modules with full speed 800 mhz, then both modules must be 800 mhz.

    by the way; as I m not wrong supports FSB 800 mhz too

  • Problem starting with Satellite A210-183

    Hi to you all.

    My name is Costis and I have a starting problem with my laptop. The laptop runs Vista and it was bought in November 2007.

    I have the following message:

    "Windows has encountered a problem communicating with a device attached to the computer.

    Can you help me how to do?

    Thanks in advance,

    Hello

    What devices are connected to the machine? Some external HDD´s or DVD readers? Would be interesting to know because this error is caused mainly by external media/devices that are not properly connected to the laptop or a malfunction.

    I recommend to unplug everything from your machine and check if the error reappears. So I would suggest to backup all of your important data and retrieve the machine completely (maybe it s a related problem of the software).

    If that's not enough then come back and talk to us more this question.

  • Problem webcam with Skype and MSN messanger on Satellite A300

    Hello.

    Well. The Australia contacted Toshiba. and got some information.
    Well, the person I spoke to said that he would try to find the drivers on the European site of Toshiba, which he did. And he said to uninstall the software from my camera assist.
    So I did, downloaded the new version, to install it. But I always get problems, saying that windows vista family premium, a USB device, does not work and windows does not recognize it.
    And also, had a driver error, saying: open the driver software or reboot your computer.

    Went on the forums of Toshiba and cast an eye, did show on their, but could not seem to find answers, and done in the last week or two.
    I just want, use Skype and MSN messenger.
    But if I can't get these problems must be solved, then no interest to install, probably does not work and haven't tried this feature yet on my machine.

    One had similar problems with their Toshibas? and where do I go from here.
    Really, which extends from my head and don't know what to do?
    The guys said maybe to make a recovery disk, but really don't want to go that route.

    It would mean having to spend hours to reinstall everything, and I don't really have the time to do at the moment.
    Very busy at the moment. If anyone can offer any other suggestions or where do I go from here?

    Had this problem when I got out of the box and purchased from Harvey Norman, Burnie, Tasmania.
    Marvin has soon.

    PS: If someone help, pourraient they send me an email to [email protected], in Australia, if they have the same problem and how they got around that one. !

    What model Toshiba do you have?

    Are you sure that the USB device is the webcam? Have you checked the Device Manager?

  • Do not have "Toshiba HDD Recovery" on Satellite U300-151 with Vista

    I have problem with Vista - it became too slow so I want to get back to factory settings.

    I went through the process described in [http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm] and then, instead of "Toshiba HDD recovery" as a last option-, I have 'Restore the full Windows operating system' which is the last one after 'comand prompt. When I click on that I get another box with warning by saying "when you reinstall windows OS reformats the hard drive and all data will be lost" and "If the preinstalled files are damaged you can use the product recovery disc (which I don't have)" and there are no other or any button except OK which I click and it just brings back me to the list "System Recovery Option"...

    I have Toshiba recovery disc creator no - it was not pre-installed when I bought computer - even if I had all the other software from toshiba.

    And I know that I can buy the recovery disk, but I don't think that pay 30 dollars for something that I should have had with the computer: and my computer is still under warranty.

    Delivered using the recovery media, you will be able to install Vista.
    Recovery image contains all of the drivers, tools and utilities, and after the installation of clean operating system, you should not install some additional software.

    Bye and good luck!

  • Problem starting with Satellite C850-1FN

    Hi guys,.

    I have a portable Satellite C850-1FN which came with win 8. I want to install win 7 because I prefer to win 8. The problem is that I can not boot from the Cd/DVD drive or a usb bootable with win flash player 7. He always says no bootable media without any startup options, I choose from the menu of the bios. I even used an external cd/dvd drive, but still no boot disk and others not to mention that the internal hard drive.

    My Win 7 drive is ok, so is the USB bootable (tested on another machine).
    Any ideas?
    Thanks to the guys in advance.

  • Problem HDMI with Satellite C850-175

    Hello

    My problem is that recently I bought projector Optoma GT750, unfortunately it doesen't work with my HDMI throught C850-175 (OS Win7 Home Premium 64) port. I have tryied all drivers Intel and Toshiba available for chart (Intel HD Graphics) but no luck there.

    The more anoing thing is that HDMI works with HDMI all equipped with TV I have tryied but will not work with projector Optoma GT750. It seams to be no communication at all when you use HDMI between the two. Not even a wink, I tryied many various HDMI cables including designated 1. 4 gold plated a HDCP-no luck there too.

    First of all ask, when using VGA port for conecting these two there is no problem at all for this to work, but I would like to use HDMI I don't need additional cables for sound.

    I hope that above is detailed enough for any tech minded to be able to determine what the problem is.

    I googled the problem and can not find a solution at all.

    Someone at - it had similar problems or maybe someone knows what it prevents these two see each other through HDMI?

    Thanks in advance

    I think it will be not easy to say why all this happens.
    Usually when you are using the TV and use the HDMI key combination FN will be there (the unit is detected).
    The same option is available when the projector is connected?

  • Problems starting with Satellite P300 - 19K

    I have a portable Satellite P300 - 19K 1 month.

    Several times since I got it when I booted my system and got the password to logon windows my screen became a series of coloured horizontal lines and the Hung system completely. The only solution was to close by holding power button for 5 seconds. Screen start then on reboot that I would get in the trunk, but that did not work. Then, I learned that if I use the F8 key just I hit the power button I can get into a lot of upgraders and I was able to recover using the restore system but every time I lose a few programs that I need to reinstall.

    What has now happened 4 times in a month and becomes boring. I downloaded the latest display driver for the display of my card ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650, but when I went to install it I learned the version I have on board is the same and everything is beautiful.

    Someone had something similar or have a solution?

    Hello

    If this happens with own pre-installed Vista (factory settings), please contact the nearest service provider and ask for help.
    Please do not test with some additional drivers. It WILL work properly with the factory settings.
