• Problem with video card satellite A500-1GH (I think...)

  Hello

  I'm having a problem with my A500-1GH. Randomly the screen goes black and then recovers by showing a message "display driver stopped responding and was retrieved successfully." My graphics card is Nvidia GeForce 330. I read many things, but all reviews were old - since the beginning of the year and nobody has solved this problem then. Do you know if there is now a solution for this?

  The laptop is brand new (respectively the windows is brand new) and the drivers and bios are up-to-date.

  Thanks in advance :)

  Hello

  Yes, it is a known problem with the vga driver in this forum. Already, you said it yourself, nobody has solved this problem :( I can just recommend you try to install a vga from nvidia.com driver. In my case, I have NVIDIA Gt 230 M, driver update has solved.

  I don't know about other issues. There are always 'problems' with any upgrade. You weigh against the benefits. I know that you need more RAM. At least 4 GB, maybe more if you can. Don't forget that this system is produced at a time when most of the machines have + 8 GB RAM and when Apple said 'minimum' they really mean it.  I recently inherited a MacBook that has 2 GB of RAM and the Mavericks. When I checked the memory, the use of the system was using 1.95 GB = nothing to run applications!

• I'm having a problem with Windows7 Home Premium and WWII CFS joystick operation. I get a message saying that the controller has been changed. Microsoft offers a patch?

  I have problems with Windows7 Home Premium and WWII CFS joystick operation.  I get a message from gibberish, saying that the controller has been changed.  I tried to replace the file with a version of Windows XP .cfg and also tried to re-write the .cfg file.  Apparently, this version of Windows will not allow a file to be saved with an extension ".cfg", so it does not work either.  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  Thank you

• HP pavilion dv6-2150us: problems with the upgrade of processor for an i7-720qm on a hp pavilion dv6-2150us

  Hi all

  My friend recently bought an i7-720qm processor used to upgrade hp pavilion dv6 2 1 5 0 US and I

  summer giving a helping hand by making the upgrade.

  Since the 10 Windows running Google Chrome used up to 70% of the processing of an i3 - 330 m power

  processor, it seemed to be good upgrade to improve the performance of the laptop.

  We checked that the new i7 processor is compatible with the laptop (it is listed as supported by the)

  ( interview guide , page 108), and the seller assured us he tested the CPU on some different

  HP pavilion and it worked fine.

  But when I replaced the processor with the i7 processor i3 and tried to boot up the laptop, only the LED lights

  on the front and the setting of the power and volume buttons would light up periodically. The screen was black

  All the time.

  Thinking I might have made a mistake during the reassembly of the laptop I put the original i3 processor back in

  and it starts fine.

  I updated the BIOS of the F.1C version I found on the internet and once replaced the i3 with the i7 with the

  same results - display off, flashes periodically LEDs. The BIOS updated smoothly, and the correct version is displayed in the main menu of the BIOS.

  I am confused on what could be the problem with the upgrade, everything should work. Is there a BIOS update I have

  missed, or the problem elsewhere?

  Disassembly and reassembly are made with care, and we took care to avoid static electricity. All the rest

  on the laptop works well - I am writing this post on the laptop in question with the original i3 processor in place.

  Any help, advice or general guidelines as to what should be done would be really appreciated.

  Thank you for your attention.

  Hello:

  The problem is that if you look in Chapter 3 of the manual, pp 22-23, there are maps of separate used for the dual core and quad core processors system.

  In other words, you cannot install a quad core processor in a Board that originally had a dual core processor and vice versa.

• Problem with the upgrade to version 37.0.1 - update just "hangs".

  I am currently in Firefox 36.0.4 on a Windows 7 Pro computer. I tried twice to move to Firefox 37.0.1 WITHOUT success. Once the software is downloaded and start the upgrade, the upgrade appears just "hang" - nothing happens after 15 minutes, which is much too long to do the upgrade previous updates of Firefox have NEVER took this long and I never had any problem with prerequisites updated to Firefox! My Windows 7 has the latest Microsoft patches. I don't know why this is happening. Any suggestions? For now I give up trying to pass to the 37.0.1 version.

  He just go to www.getfirefox.com, download the new version and install it. All your data will be saved, but you will be running the most recent version.

• Problems with multitasking on Satellite Pro P200

  I am the owner of a new Satellite Pro P200.
  I use this laptop to use software such as photoshop, indesign, etc.

  * Now I have problems with multitasking! *
  It is not possible to run 3 programs at the same time.
  That I have to restart my laptop again and again.

  Does anyone know what is the problem?
  Can someone help me with this problem?

  For two weeks I have P200D. I use it for work and use different applications at the same time. So far, everything is OK and I am very satisfied. Maybe you should try to optimize the operating system:
  -remove all software, you do not need
  -disable the startup of unnecessary software of automatic startup (MSCONFIG)
  -customize the appearance
  -information on the open performance and Control Panel tools and use tasks on the left side to improve the performance of computer s

  P200 is powerful enough and must be able to manage with a few applications running at the same time.

• 3G modem internal with slot for Satellite A500-12W SIM?

  I join this forumn in great frustration because I spent hours online looking for an answer.

  I run a Satellite A500-12W with a USB 3G modem, but I do not have this fragile thing that comes out of the computer and occupying one of the only 3 USB ports. Under the battery, there is a slot that says SIM, but it seems to be empty, because it cannot contain a SIM in place.

  I don't have a 3g internal modem, I have WIFI capabilities.
  Surely, it must be possible to buy a card that goes inside and works the same way as a USB modem?

  There is an empty slot next locations of memory which says 3 G/TV and something else, is that place and in that case, what should I buy?

  I am eternally grateful for any help, it frustrates me a lot. Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Satellite A500-12W does not support the 3G modem and was not equipped with an ability to use the sim card in order to connect to the internet.

  The point is that there are different A500 in the market with different hardware configurations.
  Perhaps the same notebook chassis has been used and, therefore, you can see this place to a sim card.

  However, I'm not sure if you will be able to update this device with a mini-PCI 3 G map... If something like that would be possible, so you can order this part of premises Toshiba ASP...

• Strange problem with ODD on Satellite A300

  I have a TOSHIBA SATELLITE A300-1EC, since a few days.

  Whenever I try to open a DVD or CD in the DVD drive, the disc is ejected.
  Please let me know the possible reasons. I have to approach the seller for repair because it is covered by the warranty or is der the possible ways I can try myself to use the CD / DVD-ROM, I mean as in checking the drivers etc.*

  Best regards Mathew

  Maybe you should offer the best explanation.

  Which player do you use?
  What happens when you put the DVD movie in the DVD player and close it?
  Usually, you should get the option to choose the player and after you click OK and film should start.
  You have any problem with original CD music and DVD movies or perhaps some self-made media?

• Problems with output TV satellite a50 492

  Hello
  I have a new a50-492 and everything works fine, everything except Tv-out :(
  i've got BIOS type PAL, my cable TV and tv-ports are not violated, I'm sure that it works fine on my desktop pc.
  I thought I was a BIOS problem and I upgraded from 1.20 to 1.30 but nothing :( I have no screen at all on tv :( I only see a small flash on the television screen when the laptop starts. Normally, it should show the typical home Toshiba screen on the bios, but nothing happens :(
  Could someone help me?
  Do not hesitate to write even on email - [email protected]
  Thanks a lot!

  Hello

  Your model has a S-VHS connector, better and easier to get color tv (but no sound) is to use a dongle inbetween the SCART and S-VHS cable, the dongle must be a computer--> SVHS--> SVHS<->RGB--> SCART-> TV,.

  As I mentioned you won't have any sound, but this can be picked up from the computer with a separate cable. Not worthy, I also have experience of PAL systems on the point above.

• PCMCIA.sys problem with Vista on Satellite M40 135

  Hello

  (Sorry for my English)
  I tried to install Windows Vista on my Satellite M40-135. (I added the 512 MB of RAM).

  But, like all users, I have the problem with pcmcia.sys. Vista starts successfully when I delete the pcmcia.sys file.
  But I have a problem: I have a PCMCIA TV and I could not use it without the pcmcia.sys file...

  So I was wondering if Toshiba will download the new drivers for Windows Vista... This laptop is 'Vista capable' according to Microsoft System requirements...

  Waiting for your help...

  Unfortunately, it seems that the snipe is right.
  Can the hardware specifications of this laptop allows you to install the Vista
  but it seems that Toshiba has decided to publish no Vista drivers for each series laptop.

  In order to check this document:

  Not seem that your laptop series is not part of the list

• Re: Problem with DVD in Satellite L655

  I recently bought a Satellite L655 with windows7 operating system. When I insert a DVD, it is not recognized as a DVD, but rather a CD... and also not autoplayed for this reason.

  I checked device drivers and it is not "yellow flag" and seems ok... but when I open 'my computer' icon, the optical drive is not listed in the removable drives like a DVD - RW, but rather 'CD Driver' label exists. I thought that the DVD drive driver is not installed and tried to find a driver for DVD RW but could not find. Then I removed the CD driver device drivers, restart the system and a CD driver is automatically installed immediately. but still no DVD is recognized.

  Toshiba Tempro program don't recommend any missing driver. What should I do?

  Thanks for the comments and useful links.

• Problem with keyboard on Satellite L500-128

  Hi all

  I'm having some problems with the keyboard on my Satellite L500-128 - essentially; 8, 9, i, o, k, l and comma and period keys do not work.

  All other keys are working perfectly fine (I use an external keyboard if people wonder!)

  I'm technically minded but I was wondering if its worth disassemble the laptop and have one eye or if someone has had this problem with this laptop before - or if someone has any ideas with what he could fix.

  I tried to do a reset of the laptop (battery and pressing power button) I reinstalled the operating system, but the keyboard still has problems in the BIOS too.

  Hello

  In my opinion and as suggested by Liam, it looks like a simple keyboard malfunction and to solve this problem, the keyboard needs to be replaced.

  The Toshiba service in your country partner could replace the defective
  Otherwise, you could try to replace it yourself, but if you are a beginner and if you have no experience, ask a support technician.
