  Hello

  Is it only happens using USB drive?
  Have you tried other disks USB, key USB flash or other USB devices?

  > I tried to check my RAM with memtest, but it restarts my pc once he starts the first tests.
  Hmm... It's strange...
  The problem of memory could be responsible for BSOD, but if this BSOD appears only using USB drive then I would recommend testing other external USB HDD.

  You should also try to update the driver from chipset since the chipset USB ports driver controls

• Satellite A500-1GH empty what is PCI accommodation with sign JGPS

  Almost a year ago, I bought a Toshiba Satellite A500-1GH.
  I can't say that I'm not satisfied with the computer or the company.

  The problems I had was the display problem (stops working for seconds) which was the problem of software (updated nVidia 8.16.11.8875) and with the HARD disk that works to stop but the company changed with a new one.

  Now, I wanted to spend the second module of memory from 2 GB to 4 GB so I can have 2 x 4 GB, but when I open the memory compartment, I saw an empty PCI home with JGPS sign beside them.
  Does anyone know what it is?

  And if so what is the part number?
  Thank you in advance.

  Hi mate

  AFAIK JGPS is a GPS connector.
  Perhaps this connector would be shared by 3G miniPCI card.
  AFAIK this Satellite A500-1GH not equipped with a 3G module and slot miniPCI is so empty.

  > And if so what is the part number?
  I don't know the part number, but all parts can be ordered from local Toshiba ASP.

• Satellite A500-1GH - SD slot is compatible with SDHC and SDXC?

  I have a Satellite A500-1GH with Windows 7 64 bit. I'm about to buy an SD card, and I was wondering if the SD card on the front of the laptop is compatible with SDHC cards and latest SDXC cards. If so, do I need to download some software or drivers for this type of SD cards to work?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hi xactxx,

  Normally you can answer this question yourself... What do you think?

  You only need the manual and you will find a list of supported SD and SDHC cards.
  It supports SDHC up to 16 GB cards.

  My laptop is the A500-1GH and I bought it 2 days ago...

• 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 :)

• Satellite A500-1GH - need drivers after installing Windows

  Hi all

  I am facing a strange problem when I am trying to format my laptop.

  I boot from dvd press the option to install windows 7 and then I get the following error message:

  "Required the reader driver CD/DVD is missinjg. If you have a driver disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now.

  "Note: If the Windows installation media is in the CD/DVD drive, you can remove safely for this step.

  Start with a search on the net, I discovered that the more possible case is that the OS needs the driver HARD drive controller to continue.
  Assuming that this was the case, I downloaded from the support page, the following drivers:

  Storage Manager
  Chipset utility
  Intel Management Engine Interface and
  Intel Matrix Storage Management Utility

  After that, I extracted the executable files of the specified packages files on my USB flash drive and inserted in my Toshiba Sattelite but once again, he can not find the correct driver and displays the message:

  "No device drivers were found. Make sure that the installation media contains the correct drivers, and then click OK. »

  Am I missing a driver or what? All the world is facing this problem?

  Thanks in advance for any answer and sorry for the mistakes with my English

• Satellite A500-1GH - TJ max for this CPU?

  Can someone tell me who is Tj Max for this CPU?

  I got different numbers in Aida and HwMonitor and I want to know which 1 is real (if one is; bouth programs have customization)?

  Hi Proday,

  What you hear with * Tj * for CPU?

  The laptop is equipped with a processor Intel Core i5 430M CPU. The maximum clock speed is 2.26 GHz and 2.53 GHz maximum turbo frequency. If you run programs with high utilization of the processor CPU will automatically be overclocked to 2.53 GHz that will give you a performance boost. This technology is called Intel Turbo Boost Technology.

• Satellite A500-1GH - what this laptop supports CPU load

  Hello everyone.

  Does anyone know which processor is supported for this laptop?
  I mean the exact models because I know what Intel I5 installed.

  Or maybe if you know the best processor that can be installed in this laptop.
  Are there documents for this laptop because I can not find the drivers in the toshiba site?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  The laptop supports the * Intel (R) Core i5-430 M * processor
  All details can be found on the page of Intel:
  http://www.Intel.com/consumer/products/processors/Corei5-specs.htm

  > Or maybe if you know the best processor that can be installed in this laptop.
  > Here are all the documents for this laptop because I can not find the drivers in the toshiba site?

  Usually the CPU upgrade not is not supported by Toshiba... but if you use the CPU of the same family of CPU (i5 - 520 M, i5 - 540 M), then you should have a good chance that the laptop would be compatible with this CPU... but I would not recommend these updates.

  Why?
  (1) you will not see any performance gain
  (2) you will lose the warranty

• Satellite A500 will not start - cannot access BIOS

  Hello

  This morning, I got my satellite a500-1GH. I activated the option "quick start" in the bios and can not enter the bios since the screen jump the "f2" for the parameters and f12 for the boot menu and I can't get into the bios.

  I tried press f2, as soon as I turn on the computer but it dosent get into the bios menu.

  And also the custom of the bone rises, the stack of the screen in 'bbs-hard disk... boot. "and it stay like that until I shut down the computer.

  Please help me here...
  Thank you!

  Hello

  To me it seems strange that you can not enter the Bios. I just suggest you plug the keyboard external usb and try to enter the Bios (maybe, for some reasons allowing the quick start, the laptop keyboard doesn't work pressing f2). Then try to remove the hard drive and check.

  I've no idea what to say, maybe other users will also suggest something.

• Some keys on the keyboard for Satellite A500-025 are strange

  My Toshiba Satellite A500-025 has a keyboard with strange symbols on it. The back key on the right side of the keyboard is also a vertical rectangular key with 2 keys between the key containing the semicolon and the return key which is too far.

  On other Toshiba keyboards I've seen in stores, the return key is a horizontal rectangular key with that one key between the semicolon and the return key. Anyone know why I have this strange configuration on my keyboard?

  Thank you

  To be honest I don't know on which keys you mean exactly, but I think you should consult your dealer and ask what it can be.
  If you want to discuss about it here please make the photo of your keyboard and mark them with red circle, what do you mean exactly.

  I don't know what other Toshiba keyboards you mean but fact is that the Satellite A500 is Toshiba the first laptop with screen 16 delivered with larger keyboard, including the numeric keypad.

• Re: Satellite A500 - cannot install on Vista x 64 VAP

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A500 L 00, 00 with Vista x 64. When I installed SP2 I had to disable all the services of the "msconfig", but when I turned back, the Fn key stopped working and some of the buttons touch too.
  So I tried to install the added value package, but when I run the Setup, the installer suddenly disappeared after one or two screens of ms - dos Black Watch.

  So I can't install it!
  Help, please!

  Hello

  Verify that all services in msconfig have been activated after the installation of VAP.
  Otherwise, you need a system restore that allowed the recovery of HARD drive and you need to restore the phone to factory settings.
