• Satellite L500 LCD replacement screen (PSLJ0A - 01 K 013)

  Hello

  I need to replace the LCD for my Satellite L500 PSLJ0A - 01 K 013, but I have trouble finding a LCD 15.6 "appropriate. I am trying to find online, but it seems that the Web sites that sell screens LCD do not have my laptop model. It will be the same for all the series L500?

  Thank you.

  > Will it be the same for all the series L500?
  I think so. If you compare your L500 with other models (different number of PSxxxx) the difference is available from hardware such as CPU, GPU, ability to drive HARD, perhaps, ports, but in general, the LCD is always the same.

• Satellite A500 - new LCD cable

  Hello

  My Satellite A500-13f laptop got his damaged cable lcd and now I need a new.

  When I went to tech support, they said they found itself without a reference number on this issue, and they need the number of the room as well as the model number to make me a new cable of the LCD.

  apparently even model laptops are sometimes with different lcd screens and so different video cables

  My laptop is the exact same in this [page | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?DISC_MODEL=0&ACTION=PRI NT_WITH_BACK & service = EU & PRODUCT_ID = 1070219]

  {color: #000000} so can you help me with the number please?
  {color}

  To be honest I don't understand the problem. Toshiba service can identify the right display and the cable for your laptop model. They can find this info in the Toshiba database so I put t understand why you need to find the part number for the service.
  > When I went to technical support
  Is - this Toshiba technical support?

• Satellite A500-1pj - no image on LCD TV via HDMI

  Hello world

  got a new Satellite A500-1pj and tried to connect it via HDMI with my Toshiba LCD TV 42XV635. Incredible, but it does not work.

  What is happening is that the TV detects the laptop and the screen goes black but no office or something else appears. If I go to extended or clone I got it on the screen of the laptop, but not yet on the TV. Already tried three different cables, disabled/enabled almost every setting on TV, I tried new drivers, different resolutions,...

  The only thing that works is to reduce the resolution to 1024 x 768, but even here the image is not that good (blue pixels across everything on dvd). So far, no response from the Toshiba support. Anyone here who has an idea?

  Thank you!

  Hi abra_xas,

  It s interesting but I can't find any information on your operating system, but it would be interesting to know because I m sure that it s just a software or driver problem. I also have Satellite A500 and often connect to my LCD TV, but I never had any problems with it.

  Usually if you connect two devices, use the FN + F5 key combination to switch between monitors.

  Is also important that you use a high quality HDMI cable and connect both devices to first before you switch them on (TV should be switched on first and select the right channel).

• Question on the screen LCD, Satellite A500-1F4

  Hello world.

  I intend to buy the new laptop and I saw the specs of the Satellite A500-1 F4 and Satellite L505-13W. I love the 16 "in A500 display but there is one thing is not clear, what do they mean on screen truebright? Compared to L505, he has LED HD display.

  In addition, what is much better video card? NVIDIA GE force or ATI Radeon? The A500 and L505 have the same capacity 1 GB graphics card, the difference of the brand.

  Thank you.

  I have very good experiences with ATI.

• Satellite A500-11U - bars on the screen

  I have a problem with my Satellite A500 11U display. All of a sudden it has stopped working, displaying bars on the screen. Can someone tell me what is the problem, I need to replace? I thought that I need to replace the video cable lcd, I don't think it's a software problem. Help, please

  I did 2 pictures of the screen, the second was made when I was watching a video on youtube.

  On this virtual path, it is not possible to say with certainty what the problem is, but I assume that the display may be defective.

  For testing purposes, you can connect external monitor to your laptop to see if everything is OK there.
  Anyway, what you need to do is contact the closest service Toshiba and let check your laptop.
  Warranty is still valid?

• Satellite A500 - 19 X - cannot activate Win7 installed on new SSD

  Hi guys,.

  my hard drive failed and I replaced it with a new solid state drive. I installed Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit sp1 and I used the product key I got for my old drive entered pre loaded when I bought the laptop. Unfortunately, what it won't validate. Microsoft is a key valid and contact Toshiba.
  Toshiba tell me that because she was pre loaded on my laptop will not work for my new drive.

  My laptop model is a toshiba Satellite A500-19 x help please

  Your laptop comes with Windows preinstalled, and this version has already been activated. The product key you have on the Microsoft sticker belongs to the original version of Windows and cannot be used for activation if you want to use the own version of Win. With the new laptop, you bought Windows and a valid license too.

  I don't know if you created the recovery DVDs as described in manuals s but if you use it for the installation of the OS. If you do not have this recovery DVDs that you have a problem.

  In my opinion, there are two options: either you're going to pay for the new license or you order original recovery disk ad original recovery image on your laptop.

• Can I switch to i5 or i7 Core 2 Duo on the Satellite A500-PSAM3A

  Hey there.

  I wondered if I would be able to change the cpu on my computer of my 2.10 Ghz Intel core 2 duo processor i5 or i7 and wanted to know if I could, because I heard all that stuff about requiring a special chipset or a new card mother for something like that.

  Oh Yes... my laptop model is Toshiba Satellite A500-PSAM3A-04000E

  So as I said, I would appreciate an answer as soon as possible.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Have a look here:
  + Is it possible to upgrade the CPU or GPU of a Toshiba laptop? +
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

  _Why an Exchange must / can not be done: _

  No significant performance will be won (-> price vs performance comparison)

  It is unclear if the new processor is compatible to the system board. Integrated chipsets can take charge of their technical specifications a wide range of processors, but this does not mean that all types of CPU can be used in a mobile system, since integrated cooling systems are designed individually for each set of model in order to ensure the optimal operation of the machine. An incorrect CPU can cause the system to overheat and damage the internal system components.

  In most cases, the BIOS does not work with the replaced CPU which causes a malfunction of the machine. The BIOS needs to be rewritten after each Exchange of a CPU that can only be done by an authorized Toshiba service partner.

  The immediate revocation of the warranty will apply if the part of the core component have been modified by the customer. This also applies when the machine was not disassembled by a certified Toshiba technician.

• Satellite A500-1EJ - charger makes buzzing noise

  Hello world

  I have a Satellite A500-1EJ. A few months ago the original laptop computer charger died on me, so I bought a Spanish new from Amazon.
  Also, I bought a new battery and they worked perfectly until last week. Of fact changer this buzzing when it is connected (same as previous). As the charger and the battery are original I have tried to find a way to get a replacement but can't find anything on cell phone chargers.

  Could you please help me with this? Amazon said I need to contact the manufacturer of the product.

• Re: Satellite A500 - Windows key no function

  Hello

  Since a few weeks my Windows key to use with the letters as the 'R' or 'X' does not work. The only windows key does not work too! I reinstall fron the original whole disk fab and 2 drivers as an answer on the forum, but nothing works clearly!
  Help, please

  Setting up Satellite A500 with Windows 7 Home

  Any solution?

  Hey,.

  > I have reinstall fron the original whole disk fab and 2 drivers as an answer on the forum, but nothing works clearly!
  What is original fab?
  You have exactly? Have you used the original Toshiba Recovery disk?

  Well, I think that if a unique key doesn t work it is not much what you can expect exchanging the keyboard because the individual keys are not replaceable.

  What you can try is to test the situation with an external keyboard. You can use the Windows key correctly?
  If yes the internal keyboard is faulty and should be replaced to an authorized service they can order spare parts Toshiba.

• Satellite A500 - crackling sounds and blue screen

  Hey everybody.

  I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite A500-19w about 4 days ago (today it is Sunday, March 7, 2010).

  I had the sounds of crackling of my speakers which have been mentioned so many times in the forums, no real solution.
  I also experienced the crash of the blue screen, that's already happened 7 times while I was not strongly using my newly buy laptop.
  I'm not looking for a repair or a replacement, because I find it quite unacceptable to have to think about the errors, faults & fixes as much as the laptop is brand new.

  What I want is a refund, but I'm not sure on how to do it.

  I know that Toshiba has some sort of refund policy, but if someone can tell me exactly how it works, because I want to get rid of my laptop as soon as possible (I will not buy any more portable Toshiba, especially since I had some similar problems with my Qosmio f30).
  If someone can give me some guidance, because I don't want to be mocked or used and cheated out of refund.
  I bought my Toshiba in the Middle East (perhaps refund policies are different here).
  Thank you.

  Hi mihran.

  If you want to pay off your laptop, you should talk with your computer store where you bought it. Only the can repay your laptop and not Toshiba directly.
  Of course it is also depending on the country where you life, but normally you can pay within 14 days I think. So in your case I speak with the seller or give them a call. They explain how to do this.

  But let me give you a little advice: regarding your problems with the crackling sound and blue screen I recommend that you contact an authorized service provider or ask a new A500 (this should be possible if you have only 4 days). Generally, I can say that a friend of mine has Satellite A500 and he is quite satisfied with her. This laptop has a great design equipped with new material for a good price. :)

• Re: Audio crackles on Satellite A500 (PSAR3A - 01 K 002)

  Bought a new Satellite A500 last year and have had many problems, here's a quick run down:

  1 will play not with Win7 64-bit, compatible blue screens pointing to the graphics card driver. Tried every update in the Sun, nothing helps, also tried a full system restore with no luck... finally gave up and moved for Win 7 32 bit and stability seems reasonable.

  2. audio crackles with 64 and 32 bit versions of win 7, once again have tried every update under the Sun, including BIOS and full system restore with no luck. Audio is really shocking and it is worth noting that it is not just the speakers, when I use a headset (and joking around, I had plugged a top of the range $300 pair) it still crackles like nothing else.

  3. fell hardware WIFI switch...! ??? Also note that this laptop was not the biggest of any ill treatment and hase has spent most of it is time sitting on a desk at home and not be mobile (which incidentally is therefore what laptops are designed for should be able to handle)

  4. Webcam not centered, he did on my right shoulder looking into no. mans land making it quite impossible to use and type at the same time.

  Where I am now... Well I took it to Portacom (west Perth) under warranty that I do not advise anyone to do as disassembled for replacement of the webcam, they were pretty useless, and they were pretty rude about it too.

  They said they tested the audio with intensively music with headphones too and can't find anything wrong with that, but yet it still crackles away murdering all my favorite music.

  They said that the WIFI hardware switch was caused by abuse, but there is no sign of violence.

  They do not have check the blue screen with windows 64-bit issue because I had long since given up that at this time.

  I was always a fan of Toshi and that's why I insisted we do a when I upgraded, but it seems he build quality has suffered a little since I finally bought a. I don't think I'll go to another ever again, this machine is wound very badly and has a huge impression cheap on this subject. Even more if you need any technical support, warranty or not, don't bother with Portacom. As I said they are rude and not much help at all really.

  Hey, man

  You are right, the A500 series have problems and the most annoying is audio crackles. I bought my round 4 monts ago and hoped that Toshiba should fix bugs of cracking, but it is still exists. I tried all Bios upgrade, reinstalling the driver, registry settings, but still no solution. As I see it, Toshiba is not care we or am I wrong? They have placed the same driver display simply by changing date you output. As for me, I don't often listen to music on my knees, using a portable mp3 player which fortunately not crackling.
  But anyway, I love this model. He has a good design, assemblage of powerful and high quality. I hope they fix some bugs in the future

• Satellite A500-14i - ATI CCC entry is missing

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A500 - 14l with a mobility radeon HD4650.

  I have replace Vista by Windows 7 in September 2009 (thanks to msdnaa), installed the latest driver I found. A few months pass, I decided to update my graphics driver. As you can see, there is no updated driver for Windows 764-bit for my laptop model psam3e.
  http://Fr.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=FR give me the ati 8.563.1.5 or 8.634.1 driver

  I tried the catalyst 10.7 (8.753) to use the acceleration of the ITA with vlc 1.1.1 so I cheat, I claim that my laptop was a L670-psk3ee to get a 8.712.2.1 version of catalyst.
  That works very well, and it's the only way I found to get a 'almost' updated driver. Then, I installed the Hydravision game.amd.com site (because it is not included in the driver from toshiba).
  Now, entrance to the CCC in the right click is absent, and the hydravision tab is missing in the CCC too. I never see this problem before, so if someone has an idea...

  Thank you in advance.

  PS:
  * With the help of Windows 7 64 bit and day, except ati driver because of politics of toshiba.
  * ccc means Catalyst Control Center. the shortcut in "all programs" works very well.
  * Hydravision is a useful tool to manage the multi desktop and display. As there is no entry in the CCC I can't set it up, but the multi-Bureau exe works very well also.

  Everything works fine on my computer (laptop), so I think that the problem came from driver Toshiba (as AMD cannot provide a generic because of the specific feature added by toshiba, like monitoring the temperature & cie). I'm so interesting in the ability to add CCC on the shortcut menu and add the Hydravision tab to the CCC.
  PS 2: I already uninstall - registry clean - reinstall the driver Ati & hydravision, it does not work.

  Hey,.

  You can t use AMD drivers directly because they are designed only for cards of office. There is no mobile driver that works with a graphics card for laptop. I think that's the reason why the CCC entry is missing.
  Please remove this driver and install the official version of the Web from Toshiba site.

  But a point would be interesting to know:
  Why you trying to update the display driver? If everything is working properly, no update is necessary! :)

• 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.
