Re: Satellite A500 - Digital Tuner DVB - T will not find channels

Hi all

I recently bought a Satellite A500-02J.

Im having problems trying to receive digital television with its built-in DTT tuner.
When setting up through Windows media player everything is ok and said that the tuner is fine and set up correctly. But when I search the channels he found nothing.

It scans and finds all available channels when I connect my antenna external antenna plug, but couldn't find anything with the integrated tuner.

I tried to update the tuner dvb - t by Device Manager, but again it is said the latest version of the driver is already installed and there is no problem with him.
It is very disappointing that this was one of the reasons why I decided to buy this model - I don't want to always have 10 metres of antenna cable hanging out of the computer.

Anyone have any suggestions or advice on how to fix this?

Luke.

DVB - T is available in your area?
Are you using the DVB - T antenna?

Maybe stupid questions but I just want to know what you're doing exactly.

  • the transfer will not find my user account

    My XP workstation has my profile with a dot in the name such as "user.systemname".

    Easy transfer will not find this user account.  I was trying to rename the profile, but the system won't let me not renaming the directory that I do not have enough permissions or something is in use.

    How can I get an easy transfer to recognize a profile with a dot in the name?

    Like Windows 7...

    Create a new user account and transfer your files and settings to the new account.

    See: http://fredcoulson.com/blog/fred/index.php/2007/08/15/renaming-your-windows-xp-user-account/

    Note: The easy transfer will not migrate type .dat and .tmp files

    J W Stuart: http://www.pagestart.com

    If that were the case, might as well the user simply copy the content of the personal folder under C:\Documents & Settings of an external hard drive.

    Question is the part of a domain user account? If so, that may be why he won't let you rename (without permission).

    If you are, I recommend the UN machine in the domain join then rename the account.

  • Satellite A500 - TV tuner not recognized after installing updates

    Recently, I ran a few updates (Windows 7) for Satellite A500 (PSARA9A). It has a built-in tuner & it worked fine until updated. Now when I go to watch television or check it comes up with "No tuner available to meet the demand for courses".

    I tried to install the new driver, but I can't tell if he does something. Device Manager me indicates that the latest drivers are installed, but it shows the yellow exclamation point.

    Can anyone suggest anything here?

    In my opinion you should try to roll back the OS to an earlier time using System Restore tool.
    This should be a quick and temporary solution.
    After this check the functionality. I put t know what settings do you use for Win updates installation but I suggest you turn off the automatic option.

    Later when you will be informed about available updates checking a little list and if a driver update is listed here don t install. Use the original Toshiba drivers only.

  • Satellite A500-1GL - service Intel RST does not

    Hi all

    Looks like I'll have a series of problems. I just noticed this message on my Satellite A500-1GL and I was wondering what this means and how do I solve it? When I clicked it, I got a pop up saying that he was trying to connect to the service, but nothing happened. I don't know the logo normally has a green but now has a yellow check! I tried a reboot, but it remains the same.

    Can someone explain what it is and what I need to do to fix it?

    Thanks a lot again
    Torti

    Hi torti,.

    I put also don't know much about it but I searched a bit using Google, and it seems that Intel RST means Intel Rapid Storage Manager for hard disks.

    If you Google, you will be advised to reinstall in page Intel or Toshiba.

    As you can see, Google can answer most of the questions. ;)

  • Satellite A500-148 turns on but does not start

    Hi all, I have a Satellite A500-148 from a friend who asked me to take a peek, it turns on, but does boot when I press the following power button occurs:
    -The power button and the charger are on and the hdd led only flashes once
    -The fan comes on for about 3 seconds
    -No image on the screen, I indicated a light against it, but there is really no image

    Tried to reset by pressing the button for 30 seconds without the changer is plugged.

    I disassembled it and noticed that this laptop has an external video card, so my question is, who's broken the video card or the motherboard.

    Thank you

    To be honest I don't understand this with an external video card. Can you describe how you mean exactly?
    In any case, on this virtual path, it is not easy to offer the exact diagnosis. You can try the little test and remove this external adapter, RAM and HARD disk, and try to start again.

    Ask your friend if he had something that may be responsible for this.

    One last thing: laptop stays in r might have turned off after a certain time?

  • Satellite A500-1EE (PSAR9E) media buttons are not lit in Fendora

    I installed Fedora 16 on my Toshiba Satellite A500-1EE, part number PSAR9E, in replacement of Windows 7. Most of the stuff works very well, fortunately, except that the media buttons (play/pause, volume up/down, etc.) are not enlightened. It's frustrating because I often work in low light and simply can not see the button, which forces me to turn on the light every time I want to change the volume or move to the next song in my MP3 player.

    The highlight was done with Windows 7 (running after starting Windows, but was extinguished during the boot process), so he's certainly not broken.

    I tried with 16-32 & 64 bit Fedora and dreamlike Ubuntu 32 bit and I can't seem to find a way to turn on the light of media buttons, leading me to suspect is a Linux question nationally.

    Is there a setting, tool or any other solution that would allow me to have my media buttons light on?

    As you probably know for this lighting feature Toshiba designed little tool, this piece of software is designed for the Windows operating system only.
    I also know that Toshiba doesn't support Linux, so there is none of these tools which runs on the Linux platform.

    Have you tried to check some Linux forums and pick up the experiences of other experts in Linux.

  • Satellite A500 - Vista and Windows 7 do not show remaining battery time

    This is the case even on my Satellite A210 with installed Win 7.
    In my view there s nothing wrong with that, but it is simply a property of Windows 7.
    The battery power is displayed in percent

    You can use an additional tool like BatteryBar 3.0 in order to display a time...

  • Satellite A500 - controls above the keyboard do not work

    I have a problem with the controls volume/dvd above the keyboard on my Satellite A500 - that they are turned on but when I touch them nothing happens. They worked when I got to the laptop, but I think that I might accidentally disabled can understand how to recover them, but I have!

    Hey Buddy,

    The controls above the keyboard are controlled by added value package. I think something has confused by VAP so that you can t use controls more.
    Usually if you reinstall VAP keys should work again

    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    That s the page where you can download.
    But before you install the latest version, remove the current one and restart the laptop. Then install the latest version of VAP.

  • Satellite Pro 2410 - Wireless card (Belkin) will not allow

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro. I think it's a 2410, the model is PS241E-5G7U9-EN. I also have a Belkin Wireless PSMCIA card, model No. FSd7010. For a long time * these worked perfectly.* the computer serves pretty well, and I received it as a gift.

    About 7-8 months, I had a catastrophic failure. I do not have the restore disc, so I had to do a format and a new install of XP Pro, and then I added drivers Toshiba etc. supplied with the PC, as I had this drive. I updated Windows SP3. The Belkin card took the latest downloaded drivers.

    First of all, I had huge problems to make the card work, due to all kinds of conflicts and other issues. Now, the card will work, BUT only when the machine has 100% power. As soon as this fall, or if the machine is cut off in any other way that a stop (Hibernate, or lid closed), the card Belkin turns off and will not allow all. It allows for a second, detects the networks, then turns off.

    Normally, I have to wait to be able to reach 100%, uninstall and reinstall. It is massively frustrating. I know that the PC is quite old, but it is a useful tool to the top and its primary function is Wi - Fi browsing. Anyone know how I can fix this problem? He worked before so it should again.

    Hello!

    You have installed the laptop with the Toshiba Recovery disk?
    You have the same problem with SP2?

    Try to test the PCMCIA card in a different cell. Maybe it's a problem of the PCMCIA card.

    Good bye

  • WIFI on my C850 Satellite can detect the network but will not connect

  • Satellite Pro L450D black screen and will not respond to any keys

    Hello

    My niece has used his Toshiba L450D for almost a year now and he really liked it, who was until last month. She turned on her laptop and when she presses the button of the mouse, the button cracked and he fell into the laptop.

    Now my brother contacted Toshiba and I was told because it is under warranty it might return for repair because it was a common fault. Then he he packed in loads of air bubbles and a box to make sure it was safe.

    A few weeks later he came back repaired but we were all shocked that the laptop was put in a very loose box and you could hear this rattling noise. When we turned on the battery was flat and we had a new boot menu.

    As she installed it Windows 7 laptop would boot directly into Windows 7, but now after the repair of the laptop shows a menu black screen with as follows:

    + Windows 7 +.
    + Recover Windows to Factory Settings [active EMS] +.

    So we started in Windows and everything went well, but now after 5 or 10 or even 20 minutes, laptop displays a black screen and will not respond to keys or mouse movement. There is nothing on the screen its just black.

    I started in SafeMode (which was more difficult with the new menu) and it does the same thing. I even managed to do a virus scan quick who took 3-4 minutes and was clean.

    I would like some advice on what my niece is very angry, and it's difficult to explain what is happening to a child in the primary school.

    Any help would be grateful.

    Hello

    Have you tried the option of HARD drive recovery?

    If this is not the case, try to set the notebook back to factory settings using HARD drive recovery.
    Turn on the device, press F12, choose repair my computer, then select Toshiba HDD recovery.

    I hope it will work!

  • Satellite P200-1EE: HD-DVD player will not work

    HD DVD will not work on my new laptop p200 1EE.
    I read some of the messages to similar problems, it takes hours to download updates of software, firmware etc.
    Configure without success.

    I just received my free HD DVD about 4 days ago and have complained to toshiba.
    I can't even drive coming on the screen as a HD DVD toshibas.

    I can't get the windows media player.
    I want to say that you buy a TV and dvd player and search around for parts to get it to work.
    Its ok, the upgrade of software to get additional features on the material, but to make it work even not.

    All of the suggestions.

    Hello

    Yes, I think I can help you.

    Please update the HD DVD from Toshiba and the firmware of readers!
    Two updates are on the European driver Toshiba page!
    That s all. There is no magic solution!

    HD DVD is a new technology and there are differences between the unique mediums. There are different standards, it seems that this was not known to you

    However, the update of the firmware and the HD - DVD Player update helps resolve this issue!
