Question sleeping on all new Satellite Pro U500-1EX

Hi guys,.

I have a new Satellite Pro U500-1EX with Windows 7 64 bit.

The laptop is having some problems with its function of sleep. I wonder if others have had the same problem - and if anyone knows anything that can be done.

OK, there are two questions;
1. when the laptop enters sleep mode - it will come out it its own after a while. He goes to the login screen and wait about another hour before falling asleep. That's when it is plugged into the power - and no LAN.

2. when I close the lid to put the laptop into standby - and while on battery - after awhile he will supply any. Connect the power supply won't do anything - the power light not at all - which suggests that the laptop don't even note not be plugged. I have to then remove the battery and turn the computer on (thus losing all the data that I had when I put the computer to sleep!).

So, have you seen this issue with your satellite pro? This is something common and being ignored - or y at - it an easy solution for it?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Audette,

I have the Satellite U500 also but I can t notice any question about fashion 'sleep'. It works perfectly with an OS preinstalled Toshiba and the latest version of the BIOS. Then perhaps you need to update the BIOS as suggested Timox.

Before you begin the update, close all running programs (also, AntiVirus and firewall), make sure you are logged in as administrator and do not stop the computer being updated.

By the way: you use the preinstalled operating system from Toshiba?

  • All new Satellite Pro L300D crashes all the time

    Hello

    I'm a little base when it comes to laptops.
    I just bought this new L300D to ebuyer

    I started and I have an anti-virus etc. But without apparent reason, the computer crashes.
    The only way out is pressed the switch out. Everything is frozen.

    It will do about 2 times and then after restarting it seems to work ok.

    I got windows to its original by HARD drive recovery settings and it did make a difference.
    I am as I say not a computer wizz.

    Can someone tell me how I can stop it crashing, it's really annoying.

    Kind regards

    Hello

    Does this happen often?
    I mean that the Windows operating system could break sometimes without any serious reason, sometimes a software compatibility issue might be the reason why the OS freezes.

    But I have this problem would fall so I recommend you contact an ASP in your country. It could be related to defective material

    Your laptop is under warranty (we hope) then the warranty should cover all hardware issues

  • Satellite Pro U500-1DK - upgrade to Windows 7?

    Everyone has lowered the note a Satellite Pro U500-1DK for Windows 7 32-bit?

    If so, were all the drivers available?

    Hi jazzydog,

    I guess you want to do a downgrade to Windows 7 64 bit for Windows 7 32 bit. Right?
    Well, the question is why you make such a downgrade because 32-bit is more obsolete because it supports only 3 GB of RAM.

    Satellite Pro U500 belongs to the series of PSU9CE and are therefore no drivers on the official page of Toshiba. So in my opinion, you should always use 64-bit Windows.

  • Satellite Pro U500 - update the BIOS does not start on Windows 7

    Try to update BIOS on Satellite Pro U500 PSU9CA. The download site says there is a new version available, after that download and run the program nothing happens. You can see the Winflash process in the Task Manager but it never appears"". If this has yet been tested by Toshiba?

    There are no instructions, no readme or whatever it is.

    Did somebody get the BIOS update?

    Hi torana.

    As far as I know Toshiba always test their drivers or updates tools before they will be released and I have never had a problem with the new updates, so I think that the problem is lreated to your laptop, maybe something wrong with your installation.

    In General before you start the update of the BIOS you have to decompress all the files in archive zip and launch the update as an administrator.
    Also make sure that the value added package is installed and no firewall is not blocking the update program.

  • Satellite PRO U500 - LCD screen size is reduced

    Hi all,

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro U500 with one small problem, the size of the LCD screen is reduced. I have a white border to the right and down. The max resolution is 1024 x 768.
    The problem is visible also when I enter the BIOS, so I think that the problem is not Operting System drivers.
    Is there a solution to my problem? I have to send in the audience?

    Thank you for the help

    It is really strange, especially if you see the same thing in the BIOS settings?
    Since when did you notice this behavior?
    Do you use pre-installed OS original you got with your laptop?

    Have you done something that may be responsible for the issue described?

    I U500 and default display resolution is 1280 X 800 t, so I understand why you have 1024 X 768 on your U500.

  • Satellite Pro U500 - multi-boot with Win 7 and Win XP

    Good gentlemen,

    Please help me with this query I have.

    I just bought a Satellite Pro U500 with Windows 7 installed. I also have a TOSHIBA Windows XP product supplied with the laptop recovery DVDs. Was told I could downgrade to XP with the DVD.

    I want to install Win XP in addition to the existing installation of Windows 7 on a different partition, I intend to create.
    Can I create a create a separate partition and then use the recovery TOSHIBA Windows XP product DVD to install Win XP on it?

    Am just worried I might spoil the on the laptop's recovery partition?

    Basically, I want to be able to run the current Windows 7 and Win XP on my machine and want to know the best way to do it without damaging the existing TOSHIBA recovery partitions.

    I want to use the recovery DVDs TOSHIBA Windows XP product to install XP on a new partition with windows 7 OS.

    Thank you

    Hi-band,
    + downgrade to xp + means that you are not allowed to use your win7 installation any longer...

    ask problem "dual-boot":
    burn a DVD restore *, choose from the start menu

    After that, you can choose partition wich you like "sacrifice" for xp and install it...
    XP can't 'see' the install of win7, but you need a Boot Manager to boot both systems (xp is crushing the win7 boot code)

    or you go the other way:
    installation of xp and then install win7
    This has the advantage that win7 offers you the ability to boot xp from the bootmenu.
    in both options, you lose the hard drive recovery!

  • Ubuntu 9.10 on Satellite Pro U500

    Hi all

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro U500 1EQ PSU83E (I think this is a special edition for the school).

    I tried to install Ubuntu 9.10 but the wireless LAN card is not recognized.

    If there is no native Linux driver, I think that I try to install Windows by Ndiswrapper player.
    The problem is that I can't know who is the manufacturer/model for Wi - Fi card.
    Is there someone who knows what model of card Wi - Fi is installed?

    Many thanks and best regards.

    Please

  • New Satellite Pro A200 does not charge

    I have a new Satellite Pro A200, I've had for about a week. Initially he was charging fine, now it won t load and I have to run to the network it all the time. For the first few seconds after lighting it seems to be loading it then does nothing.

    Can anyone suggest what could be the problem? Or should I return it?

    Thanks in advance,

    Hello cat

    Before you start to speculate on potential problems I recommend you contact your dealer as soon as possible. The laptop is new and everything should work fine. The behavior described is certainly not normal and may be that something is faulty.

    Please contact your dealer and explain the situation.

  • No software DVD player with my new Satellite Pro P200

    Just bought a new Satellite Pro P200 and, to my surprise and dismay, it has software player DVD No. inside? I downloaded the DVD drive on the official download here, but Vista abandoned the facility saying that I can not install the application. Have you tried to configure it as a Admin, but the same message is given running.

    Suggestions as to how I can get the software to run movies DVD on the new laptop computer would be most appreciated.

    The laptop is model is PSPB7E, it has Vista Business installed and has a HD-DVD drive installed.

    Would apprecate a response early to what I already plan to return this item, demanding a full refund since it seems that it does NOT use a software which SHOULD run (IE. Compatible versions of some software XP will simply not installed because Vista blocks!).

    Kamshot - discouraged by the new culture of 'Vista '!

    Hi Kam

    As far as I know every Toshiba laptop comes with pre-installed software allows you to watch DVD movies. It is a part of the standard installation and the application is called WinDVD.

    According to the specifications of the laptop, your laptop has no HD DVD player, just DVD-Super Multi (+ r DL). Because of this there is no HD DVD player.
