• A few questions about the feature Satellite A300D - 14 p

  I have the model Satellite A300D - 14 p a month. 2-year warranty. I have a few questions and ask for help and suggestions I have to do?

  * My quality of the camera * is VERY poor, with a lot of light on, I can get image quality generally ok. Inside, next to turned on the two options, night mode, or backlight compensation, I can hardly see my face, very dark and very bad quality. Second problem, it is a blue led light, it is annoying because half of the picture is always blue, somehow made light photo half which is always blue:(((j'ai utilisé modèle portable L300 série (moins cher que le mien) with the same device and that blue light, it works perfectly :()

  * Autonomy and start up Vista OS *? In little 1.5 hour energy saving mode? Surf train and nothing else... I asked Toshiba support here in Serbia in this respect and they told me that it is normal and measure the battery life (2,... h) by specifications, this is when my screen is off and computer do nothing? They also said that starting normal time for Vista OS is maybe more around 1.45 min?

  If I install win XP is it possible to get longer battery life?

  I have to go in service Toshiba or what?

  Thank you very much and sorry if I'm boring :)))

  Hay Nikola

  You are not boring at all and welcome to this forum.

  I don't know where to start. ;).

  I have Satellite A300-1LI in front of me and I use it about a month now. Startup time is very interesting theme and with a good configuration, you can optimize and make much shorter as with factory setting. Please read a very interesting thread about it under http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=134947
  Do the same with your Satellite and I hope that you will be satisfied.

  Battery operating time? I have to say that information about two hours are realistic and I can confirm that. The same thing on my Satellite. But to be honest for mobile computing, it's OK. I've changed several notebooks and just business laptop Tecra had to linger battery operation. What you can do is check the Toshiba support site and look for info on the more powerful battery. I don't know, but you can use the battery (Li-ion, 9 cell, 6000mAh).

  On cam, I can't say much. It works on my Satellite on OK and I am satisfied. OK quality is not the same as for integrated cam but good external webcams it's OK.
  If you are not satisfied with trying to speak with the nearest service or try to compare it with some other Satellite by your local dealer.

  If Nikola, if you have more questions please post again.

• A few questions about his, BIOS and drivers on Satellite P100

  Hello

  Just bought the Satellite P100-188, thought I'd go with a top brand machine, however, on commissioning I am a little concerned about the quality of the speakers who tend to sizzle and distort. If right or wrong I thought that Harman Kardon would deliver the goods. I tried the reset options in the Panel, but being a novice when it comes to search in the "engine room", I'm worried I have settle something important or worse clear settings. Can someone advise.

  NVidia also uncertain whether to update the drivers if early machine bought this week, I notice an update of the driver is available, the driver that is currently installed is version 8.3.2.0.

  Can anyone tell if the BIOS updates are also needed, once again an update 2.10 is shown available but with a WARNING of WTH UPDATE message. This sort of thing is far beyond my understanding of computers, so I would be grateful for anyone offering a perfect beginner tips.

  Hello

  The quality of the sound on the speakers depends on the design of laptops and laptop performance. As far as I know the speaker are a bit smaller than on multimedia laptops.
  If you want to change some of its settings Iwould recommend to go into the control panel and you should find the Manager Realtek HD sound effects. Here it is possible to change an option in the demo audio 3d.

  You also asked for a graphics card driver. You know that driver graphic Toshiba are not similar to the nVidia drivers. In addition the original nVidia drivers are not designed for the use of the laptop but for desktop PC.

  The update of the BIOS is not a simple thing. If you use bad BIOS or update procedure wrong so it is possible that you may damage the motherboard. So if the BIOS update is not necessary, you shouldn't t do.

• A few questions about the Satellite A100 PSAANE

  Hi friends,

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A 100 - PSAANE with Vista Home Basic preinstalled in it.
  Now, I have a few questions... I mention below: -.

  (1) if I want to format my laptop, I need a CD to install for Vista Home basic... then I don't have this Toshiba CD when I bought the laptop. So how do? question: How can I format it?

  (2) can I change my Vista Home Basic to windows XP? I think it's much faster than this one. is it advisable?

  (3) I have a GB of RAM in the laptop. Increase the RAM? I think that my laptop has become to slow down. is it advisable?

  (4) and on my screen, everytime I try to change my profile screen to windows Classic view, my screen begins to blink. and after a while, the screen turns off. So I can't change that. I put the color scheme of windows vista only. What to do about that?

  Please help me friends. Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Here, a few questions about the number:

  (1) usually, you should get the Vista Toshiba Recovery DVD. If you didn t receive this DVD then you can order it here https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx or you could install the disc of Microsoft Vista.

  (2) of course, you can do this. I think that Win XP drivers can be downloaded from the Toshiba driver page.

  (3) Yes, you can upgrade the RAM. For more information, see your manual or search on this forum for similar topics

  (4) maybe it s associated with the graphics driver. Check if you can update. I would recommend additional check if you are using the latest version of the BIOS

• A few questions about the upgrade on Satellite A300-144

  Sorry for the typos, English is not my mother tongue.
  I want to ask some questions about the upgrade of a300-144.

  * Some info first.*

  CPU: T2370 ([http://ark.intel.com/products/34445/Intel-Pentium-Processor-T2370-1M-Cache-1_73-GHz-533-MHz-FSB]).
  Chipset: GM965 ([http://ark.intel.com/products/29821/Intel-82GM965-Graphics-and-Memory-Controller]).

  * Questions.*

  1. my frequency of laptop memory at 533 MHz, supports 667 MHz memory controller, memory modules can work at 667 MHz. Is - this because CPU FSB 533 MHz frequency and new processor at 667/800 MHz FSB will fix it or it is hardcoded in the BIOS?

  2 Intel said that the size of max memory for my chipset is 4 GB (2 x 2 GB), but Toshiba says that only 2 GB (2 x 1 GB), who is right?

  3 I know, taken of my CPU is μFCPGA-478 aka socket P, max FSB 800 MHz, max 35 W TDP, so T9500 ([http://ark.intel.com/products/33918/Intel-Core2-Duo-Processor-T9500-6M-Cache-2_60-GHz-800-MHz-FSB]) is a compatible processor or there are some limitations in the BIOS?

  > 1. My frequency of laptop memory at 533 MHz, supports 667 MHz memory controller, memory modules can work at 667 MHz. Is - this because CPU FSB 533 MHz frequency and new processor at 667/800 MHz FSB will fix it or it is hardcoded in the BIOS?

  The speed of the memory is related on the material. This means that the FSB is responsible for the limitation.
  If the FSB would allow support 667 MHz then the memory would also at this speed.

  > 2. Intel says that the size of max memory for my chipset is 4 GB (2 x 2 GB), but Toshiba says that only 2 GB (2 x 1 GB), who is right?
  The memory depends on the chipset. So if the chipset supports 4 GB of RAM, you should be capable of this move to 4 GB of RAM

  > 3. I know, my CPU is? FC-PGA-478 aka socket P, max FSB 800 MHz, max 35 W TDP, so T9500 (http://ark.intel.com/products/33918/Intel-Core2-Duo-Processor-T9500-6M-Cache-2_60-GHz-800-MHz-FSB) will be a compatible processor or there are some limitations in the BIOS?

  It might be possible that the new processor would be fully supported by the BIOS, but in most cases it should not be a problem if the chipset would support the new processor.
  But as far as I know the upgrade of the CPU is not supported by Toshiba or any other manufacturers of portable and its your own risk to run laptop with the new processor.

• Re: Several questions about the recovery of the Satellite L750 features

  I have several questions about the recovery of Satellite L750 features available to it. Any help and answers would be useful.

  (1) when I started the laptop first, he asked me to create a recovery CD incase I need to reinstall the operating system. But he also said that he built in the recovery partition, so therefore, I have to make a recovery cd or not?

  (2) will be the recovery CD is exactly the same as the recovery on the system partition?

  (3) is the partion of CD or recovery includes all the integrated software pre-installed with the laptop?

  (4) also in the device manage management it shows watch partion recovery but it is empty, is it true?

  (5) in the second partition (drive D) system, he has a record with what looks like the recovery of files and folders. Is it safe to move/remove it?

  Hello

  I'll try to provide answers:
  1 - to ensure that everything works perfectly you don t need these discs, but if something goes wrong with the HARD drive you will not be able to do anything. When you have the recovery DVDs, you will still be able to install the recovery image and once again the factory settings. So my advice to you is: create these discs as soon as possible. Use only on DVD-R media and buy products of high quality (TDK or Verbatim).
  2 - Yes.
  3 - Yes.
  4 - No. Don t be confused with this.
  5. in a first time create restore DVD, and later you can do what you want. I put t know which files mean you but don t touch anything before that of the recovery disks to be created.

  In the past, many people have been experimenting with the structure of HARD drive and partitions and later was surprised when installing disk recovery HARD has been damaged. Don t make the same mistake.

  If you have any other questions you are welcome.

• A few questions about the difference between the Satellite P70, L70, S70

  Hello, I have a lot of questions about the P70, L70, S70 series that come with a 1920 x 1080 panel.

  (1) what are the differences between the L70 and S70 series? With the exception of the RAM and HARD drive capacity, books seem pretty identical.

  (2) P70, L70, S70 doesn't support a 2nd HARD drive or it's just the P70 series that support?

  (3) all the three (P70, L70, S70 series) come with the same TFT panels?

  (4) of the above series, which supports mSata?

  (5) all the model of each series are delivered with support from mSata? For example, it could be that L70 - a - 13 m supports mSata is not the case of the L70-a-146?

  (6) all the foregoing, are delivered with a S - ATA II or III S - ATA interface?

  (7) who is the best of these series listed? I'm trying to understand what makes the big difference of S70 to P70 except for the envelope for example.

  Thank you in advance.

  > (1) what are the differences between the series L70 and S70? With the exception of the RAM and HARD drive capacity, books seem pretty identical.

  What models Sat L70 and S70 do you mean exactly? There are different L70-xxx-xxx and S70 models on the market that supports different hardware specifications.

  (> S70 2) P70, L70, support a 2nd drive HARD or is - it just the series P70 that support?
  As you can see in this [Sam P70 HDD replacement document, | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/CRU3903II0000R01.htm] the P70 series supports the 2nd drive Bay HARD, BUT even if there is a 2nd HARD drive Bay, this does not mean that you can use the 2nd HARD drive. In the case where the 2nd HARD drive Bay are equipped with HARD drive connector, you can use the 2nd HARD drive

  I also found the [Sam L70/S70 HDD replacement | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/CRU3703HG0000R01.htm] the document on the Toshiba page and there I see this 2nd HARD drive Bay is not available

  (> 3) all three (P70, L70, S70 series) come with the same TFT panels?
  See point 1). Different P70, L70, S70 models were equipped with different material parts.

  (> 4) of the series above, which takes in charge mSata?
  As far as I know that some P70 models are equipped with an mSATA SSD of 256 GB.

  (> 5) do all the model of each series are delivered with support mSata? For example, it could be that L70 - a - 13 m supports mSata is not the case of the L70-a-146?
  See point 4) not all models supports the same hardware specifications

  (> 6) all of the above, come with a S - ATA II or III S - ATA interface?
  I don t think that SATA III is supported. I guess it would be SATA II

  (> 7) which is the best of these series listed? I'm trying to understand what makes the big difference of S70 to P70 except for the envelope for example.
  Not easy to answer because there are too many models released in Europea.
  And not all models are available in each country. So I guess you will have to look for the models that have been released in your country.

• Recently bought a laptop computer; A few questions about the offer Upgrade to Windows 8

  I have a few questions about the Upgrade of Windows 8 offer for new computers.  I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite S855-S5268 of amazon.com, which came with Windows 7 Home Premium.  Toshiba already has a beta version of drivers and utilities for Windows 8 for the S855 on their Web site.

  (1) I bought my laptop in July of this year, and I've not yet registered for 8 Windows Upgrade offer with Microsoft.  Am I still eligible to receive the upgrade, if I sign up soon?
  (2) if I buy the upgrade through this offer, I'll be able to download an ISO file so I can burn the installation media, or do I need to upgrade to Windows 7?
  (3) if I will be able to burn the installation media, I'll be able to erase my hard drive and do a clean install of Windows 8 (which I'd rather do, I have a lot of backups of my data).  I am aware that I would probably need to provide my product key Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit OEM during the new installation, because it is an upgrade and not a full version; This isn't a big deal, because my Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit OEM product key is stuck at the bottom of my laptop.
  (4) my current copy of Windows 7 is activated by seeing my BIOS (I have a traditional BIOS, not a UEFI).  If I had to switch to Windows 8 and decide then I'd rather back in Windows 7, for example, a few months later, I'll be able to do that (I burned recovery of Windows 7 with the Toshiba utility disks, which I did), and Windows 7 will continue to activate by seeing my BIOS, even after the installation (and later remove) Windows 8?
  Thank you very much!

  (1) I bought my laptop in July of this year, and I've not yet registered for 8 Windows Upgrade offer with Microsoft.  Am I still eligible to receive the upgrade, if I sign up soon?

   

  Yes, the registration period is between June 2, 2012 to January 31, 2013.

  (2) if I buy the upgrade through this offer, I'll be able to download an ISO file so I can burn the installation media, or do I need to upgrade to Windows 7?

   

  Yes, the Upgrade Wizard of Windows 8 will allow you to create a bootable DVD or you can grab the ESD file and save it.

  (3) if I will be able to burn the installation media, I'll be able to erase my hard drive and do a clean install of Windows 8 (which I'd rather do, I have a lot of backups of my data).  I am aware that I would probably need to provide my product key Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit OEM during the new installation, because it is an upgrade and not a full version; This isn't a big deal, because my Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit OEM product key is stuck at the bottom of my laptop.

   

  Yes and there are better ways to reinstall Windows 8 without using the installation disc, you can use the reset and refresh.

   

   

  These steps will take you through refreshing your PC:

  · Press the Windows key + C on your keyboard to show the charms (if you use a touch screen: touch the right edge of your screen and drag your finger to the left)

  · Click settings

  · Click change PC settings

  · Click general in the left column

  · Under refresh your PC without affecting your files, click Start

  Then follow the instructions that will be provided on-screen to cool your PC.

  (4) my current copy of Windows 7 is activated by seeing my BIOS (I have a traditional BIOS, not a UEFI).  If I had to switch to Windows 8 and decide then I'd rather back in Windows 7, for example, a few months later, I'll be able to do that (I burned recovery of Windows 7 with the Toshiba utility disks, which I did), and Windows 7 will continue to activate by seeing my BIOS, even after the installation (and later remove) Windows 8?
   
  As long as you have a recovery disk which you should create or use the construction in the recovery partition, Yes, it will self activate.

• Question about the interruptions and priming

  Hello

  I had a few questions about the startup and interruptions in a virtualized environment

  Assuming that, plenty of virtualization (no material assistance to virtualization of memory ).

  1 initialization: in an ordinary PC, the boot process starts with the BIOS, to expansion ROM, back to the BIOS and MBR secondary boot record, then grub (is it) and finally the operating system. In a virtualized environment with VMM running directly on top of hardware (Native VMM), how is the initialization of the different process, as I understand it takes BIOS-> Expansion ROM - > BIOS-MBR-> other record secondary-> VMM-> OS--> applications >. Am I right on that?

  2 breaks: VMM examines the source interruptions prior to the interruption, so in a multicore environment, assuming a 2 processor core, how the VMM decides on the kernel for which the interruption in intended, prior to shipment of the interruption. Interruptions are tag ID, said core ID?

  Thanks in advance

Am I right on that?

  It is simplistic but essentially correct.  A metaphor would be a little better thinking that the hypervisor/vmm is an operating system, except that the process on this operating system are requests or comments OSes.  If the BIOS-> OPROM-> BIOS-> MBR-> hypervisor-> init process of the hypervisor-> reviews of fork () s operating systems.  This can become blurred by the design choices (for example Xen/Hyper-V init start a coded parent hard partition that makes hypercalls privileged to fork() guest OSes; ESXi init runs a very limited subset of applications directly on the hypervisor and ESX Classic is somewhere between these approaches).

  There is a subtle distinction between "hypervisor" and "www."  The "hypervisor" is the operating system of single root (e.g. ESX) who interacts directly with the hardware and has access to everything; a hypervisor is not to be used to run virtual machines.  When we talk about a "hypervisor", the tendency is to describe something which is a BONE (although usually a minimal OS designed only to run virtual machines).  The "www" is the layer that allows a virtual machine run: it provides the interposition, virtualization and emulation services and can be plural (for example a vmm by guest operating system).  Architecture of VMware deal with these two separate components, while most other virtualization platforms merge the two.

  Strictly speaking, the interruption is not transmitted to a guest operating system - receives the hypervisor (or rather the VMM it transmits to the hypervisor), the hypervisor drivers interpret the interruption (for example reading package of NIC, I/O process of HBA, the timer tick completion), then after a new appropriate break in the guest OS.

• Question about the recovery partition

  Hello.

  I have a question about the recovery of HARD drive partition.

  If I do the operation to clear the hard disk option in the wizard it will remove * all * or it will keep my partition recovery in this way I can come back later. I want to know because I would like to put on a different OS.

  I know he said he would, but caution in the PDF, I found it says that on a normal recovery too (that he would remove each partition) and I'm a little confused about how the recovery actually worked.

  Thank you.

  Hey Buddy,

  To be honest I n don't know what you mean exactly with this option to erase.

  In General, Toshiba Recovery disk will wipe your entire HDD to restore factory settings correctly. This means that if you start from that disk and follow the instructions on the screen, everything will be removed.

  In addition, the recovery disk doesn t create a recovery partition. It is not available. Disk copy just the files on the second partition in folder HDDrecovery to start an installation of HARD drive recovery.

• Question about the new Yoga 10 HD +.

  Hello

  A few questions about the new Yoga 10 HD + that I hope you can answer.

  I bought the former model, last year. Love the design and long battery life, but a few major questions made me return.

  • Somewhere that I've read that it can not read NTFS on USB so I guess that's the same thing with a NTFS formatted microSD card?
  • Can it read exFAT formatted microSD cards?
  • Anyone who has questions about the audio via bluetooth?
    (I know that BT is not exactly High End HiFi but the old 10 Yoga for some obscure reason - most likely a driver problem which nobody cared to fix - rang * very * worst with visibly distortion while both my phone and a Tablet noname cheap I have zero about fidelity - any of my devices bluetooth audio) I tried aptX or not)

  So to avoid buying it back it also I really I would like to see if I can get my questions answered before buy you.

  While I love the form factor and long term issues above are only two Mayor dealbreakers for me. Bad audio quality = no joy listen to spotify, local etc. MP3s. not of NTFS or exFAT = some great movies.

  My old noname android Tablet really could use an upgrade so I'm really curious it may be, or I should watch the competition and will be form factor and battery LIFE.

  Thanks in advance.

  EDIT:

  If it does not support NTFS or exFAT on microSD card have someone at - he tried ext3 or ext4?

  I mean with Linux Android root, it should be a no-brainer to support at least when it comes to royalties unlike NTFS or exFAT where it * might * have some trouble with Microsoft.

  I used a USB through a USB OTG cable. NTFS or exFAT have been recognized by the Tablet PC. FAT32 is seems to be the preference.

• Just a quick question about the appearance of the cluster

  Hello, this is Matthew, just a quick question about the appearance of the cluster

  Is there anyway to rearrange the order of the elements? I know cutting automatic resizing, I could move the items by hand. But if I use the cluster somewhere else, I have to move the items again...

  What I want is of the order of "Mx My Mz Ax Ay Az Temp voltage CS".

  Is there a quicker way to deal with?

  THz so much!

  You can right-click the border of the cluster and choose "arrange control cluster...". "The user interface is not as intuitive as it could be, but it will allow you to reorder items. If you use the cluster in several places, you should make the cluster in a type definition and replace all current uses of the latter with the type definition, so that they all match. They will also update automatically when you make changes to the type definition. Otherwise, you could have a situation where you have multiple groups with the same data types, but with elements in a different order, and your data will be getting a new denominated, when wire you the whole clusters. The data will be in the same order, but given that the item labels are in a different order, you can't get the data you want, when ungroup you by name.

• A few questions about the use of data and Cliq

  I have the cliq, however I chose to not get 3G (so I bought full fare). So I have a few questions about the phone and the use of 3G / 2 G/Edge:

  1 - is possible to disable completely the 2G / 3 G/Edge? I know you can switch between them, but are anyway just tell the phone to stop using them altogether since I'm not subbed to the service?

  2. when the update takes place, I guess we'll have to reconnect motoblur and etc, but if I don't have 3 G will I have motoblur connection problems after the update? Or he keeps the latest wifi settings so that it would connect to wifi to connect. When I first got my phone it was not a problem b/c I had 3G for the first month.

  I hope that makes sense, thanks!

  To stop all the data, I would like to download an application called APNDroid. He cut them all down. When you log on to blur you have 3G or WIFI doe this without getting a timeout error. During the process of setting up your Blur account, you can press the menu button and set up your wifi to work, this will connect you to Blur and your phone will be connected to the blur. If I were you I would be rethinking to do a data plan since you are really losing out on most of your main features of phones. It's your choice, however.

• Is it a good place to ask questions about the slow s Tablet touchscreen response?

  Is it a good place to ask questions about the slow s Tablet touchscreen response?

  You experience slow response on normal s tablet, the first gen one or the Xperia s tablet, a new.

  If you experience a slow response, it may be because you use too many apps at the time and slowing down of your tablet. How long it lasts?
