• Built-in microphone problem Satellite L300D

  I got my satellite L300D (model # PSLC8C-06100F) on a year ago, and when I got to use Skype, he couldn't find a microphone.
  I assumed that, unlike my previous satellite the L300D just didn't come with a built-in microphone.

  However, a few weeks ago, I was on Skype and having problems with the headset I had plugged, and when I unplugged it I suddenly had great sound that passes through the built-in mic, I thought wasn't there!

  The problem is that I couldn't to find much - not to mention make it work again - since once.
  What happens here?
  I obviously HAVE a built-in microphone, but my computer or Skype can seem to find.

  If anyone can help out me on this, I would be very grateful!

  Hello

  If your Satellite L300D takes in charge the internal webcam then the internal microphone should be available also.
  Generally, the parameters of the internal microphone not found in the control panel-> sound-> the recording tab.
  Please check the settings there

  It would be also desirable to update the audio driver.

  Good luck

  As far as I know on the second partition of HARD drive folder HDDRecovery is saved recovery image. When you start the installation of (F8 at startup) HARD disk recovery partition recovery image D will be installed on the C partition. In this case the D partition is not deleted. C just partition will be formatted before installation of recovery image begins.
  Just use F8 option and go fix my computer. Just follow the on-screen menu and choose the software factory default recovery option.
  > 2 If the disc is defective, how do I re - install supplied OS (vista) for a new HARD drive?
  After reading this question, I see you didn't read the document s user manuals. You need to create a recovery media (DVD recovery) and this recovery DVD you can use for recovery image installation if there is a problem with the HARD drive or you want to install original recovery image on the new HARD drive.
  3 > unrelated meanings, can I upgrade to Windows 7 (clean install) 32 or 64 bit version?
  Of course you can do it. Please visit the download page of Toshiba on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp and check if all the drivers, tools and utilities are available here. Of course before doing this, create recovery DVDs.

  If you have any other questions you are welcome.

• Satellite L300D-135 - some keys stop working after a few minutes

  Satellite L300D-135 (PSLC8E-02P013EN) portable model, boot cold keyboard is fine. As things warm up the keys R and there stop responding as do 7890 keys. May be heat related.

  The keyboard has been replaced, old and new are doing the same thing, so it's more like a controller issue. Have flashed the latest BIOS as saw talk of the keyboard problems in one of the versions of the BIOS. The end user has been tolerated for a few months, but now, Dyslexic child needs to use the laptop and cannot deal with dead keys.

  Any ideas? Laptop is 2 weeks out of warranty and user end just asked me to take a peek, problem has been around for the warranty period.

  Phil

  Hi Phil

  Can you notice the question even if you connect an external keyboard or this only happens with an intern?

  I can t imagine it has something to do with the heat, but if you want you can clean your laptop using a jet of compressed air. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans.

  If this isn't the case, you must replace the entire keyboard. Normally it of not so expensive so Don t you worry not about it. You can also ask your ASP if they can repair as a gesture of goodwill.

• Satellite L300D-12u: power supply works not - is threre a guarantee?

  Hello.

  Today, I was surfing the Internet when suddenly my laptop says, is no longer on electricity.
  I touched the power supply and the connector that is immersed in the laptop was very hot (not the big case which becomes usually hot, only the connector).

  I tried several times to make it work again to take a new start or cool connector, but it still does not work.

  To make sure, that it is the question of food, I used the power supply of my mother, who is similar to mine, and then it worked.

  So my question: do I have a warranty on my power supply?
  I bought my laptop to 29.8.2008 in Germany and is a Satellite L300D - 12u.

  Thank you for all the answers!

  Hello

  Adapter is covered by warranty for laptop.
  So if laptops warranty is still valid your adapter should be covered by the warranty as well.

• Satellite L300D - TEMPRO alert reader D capacity WARNING

  I have a Satellite L300D. It has been little used, but I get TEMPRO alert that says that "data stored on drive D has reached 75 percent or more capacity: space 149,01 GB total disk and disk space GB 37.73.»

  Can anyone tell what it is and I can do something to free disk space.
  I tried to find "Disk D" on the laptop without success-it is not mentioned in the backup/restore windows.
  Thank you very much

  In my opinion there is no reason to panic. This is just information and you must not take it so seriously. Continue to use the free space on the D partition. When the disk is full, you must find new option for backing up the data.
  For this application, you can buy external HARD drive and move all your important data to make the free space on the HARD drive for the use of every day.
  That's all!

  TEMPRO is application that runs in the background and informs the user about available updates or situation on your laptop. To be honest I don't use it at all because I know when the HARD drive is filled or not. I have Tempro removed from the system.

  My laptop works well and stable. So it works well I have need of updates.

  This drive letter and other parameters can just confuse you.
  Simply continue to use your laptop and be happy with it.

• Black screen on Satellite L300D

  Hello

  Yesterday afternoon I went on my laptop but the screen was black, it seemed to the power upward but always because I could see the lights flash like the battery, power & HDD. I ve tried to take the battery and back, press and hold the power button for 30 seconds +, but nothing seems to work. What else could I try? My laptop is a Toshiba Satellite L300D.

  Thanks for any help :)

  It may be a problem with one of your memory modules, if you have two memory cards in your laptop try just using one at a time, but if you have only one then you need to test with another.

• Satellite L300D - Webcam error messages

  I am running Vista 32 bit on a Satellite L300D.

  I have recurring problems with built in webcam Chicony. Basically, frequently, it stops working (I only use it with Skype), me gives error messages but more commonly "cannot start video. Try closing other programs that may use your webcam... ». A reboot of my laptop it fixes usually but only temporarily.
  I downloaded the drivers and the software Camera Utility on the Toshiba site, but it has not solved the problem.

  Anyone out there that can suggest a solution, I would be very grateful.

  Thank you.

  Hey,.

  What the webcam driver you have installed, and you removed the old one? You must remove the old driver of the webcam first before installing a newer version. Before installing a newer driver also make sure that all the old driver registry keys are deleted. Therefore, you can use a registry cleaner like CCleaner.

  Compare the driver webcam with a newer version of other laptops. Like Akuma written you can download it from a laptop model more recent and this driver should also work on your model correctly.

• Satellite L300D-11V - after the installation of new, I have a few questions

  I had an accident important a few weeks ago, that came out the main partition on my hard drive (even if the other partition appears to be very well) and I installed Windows XP Pro on a new hard drive to install Windows 7 in the near future.

  I found some drivers which I burned on disc, and install them on my new drive hard but now I have problems with her laptop in some areas:

  -I can't the USB ports to work at all even though I thought I installed the proper drivers.
  -I can't access Internet via WiFi even if the Ethernet connection works fine and I thought I had installed the correct drivers.
  -The Touchpad works very slowly and in some cases, it takes an age to click on something like an 'X' button to close the software or anything else...

  Can someone tell me how I can solve these problems as well as to get my laptop fully operational with Windows XP Pro.

  Your Satellite L300D PSLC0E models is. I checked the Toshiba download page and your laptop is not supported for Windows XP Home edition operating system.
  Toshiba doesn't offer any driver tested for your laptop model.

  You have installed not supported OS and now you want to have all the hardware components work perfectly. How? Someone needs to find the drivers for you or what?

  It will be best for you to use Vista supported, you got as a recovery image. To install Win7 is good idea and I can imagine your cell phone will be supported and all necessary drivers will be available in the future.

  I'll do the same thing with my A300.

• Satellite L300D-11 a - reader problem DVD and blue screen

  Hello

  I'm going out of my mind: o.

  My Satellite L300D-11 has been delivered with a Windows Vista Home Premium, but I recently did a clean installation of Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.

  Since then, I have had problems with 'Blue error screen' come randomly. Bought and installed a registry clean program, but that did not fix the problem. Anyone else with this problem - and a possible solution.

  And now, my big problem. My CD and DVD drive crazy me; (o) it's a rug * a DVD-RAM UJ-850 s ATA and my internet research I found that many carpet * an owners have had the same or similar problems. My drive won't regonize or CD play/play. DVD with videos or programs, I can play. CD burning is not possible and DVD burning is sometimes work and other times not.

  I have read on different patches is displayed - also here on the Toshiba - not of the suggested solutions forum works for me - the new solutions I could try.

  Seriously think about buying a USB external DVD drive - but can be it someone please tell me why Toshiba does not get their B fingers * and find a solution as it sews Sony did it.

  I look forward to any reply; (o))

  Someone told me about this quote - "does not it was easier - works on getting smart! I need your help to get smart; (o))

  Hello

  I understand that it was ok with your laptop before installing Windows 7. It is so related to hardware problem software. Can you tell if it was original iso of windows 7 or the Assembly. Have you installed all the drivers for the Toshiba driver page and the maintenance of the right installation order? What burning software do use?

  Have you done this procedure mentioned in this forum:

  Go to Device Manager and remove the drive from the list of devices CD/DVD.
  Then access the registry and delete the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  Reboot the laptop and wait for the CD/DVD drive would appear once again

• Satellite L300D-11V: taken power moves a bit

  Hello

  I recently bought a new Toshiba Satellite L300D-11V of curries.
  The laptop is great apart from the power jack on the side of the laptop that may move a little when it is plugged into the laptop.

  I took the thing to the shop only to hear the Director tell me that the display model of the laptop even did the same.
  The laptop works very well and starts too thin.
  I just wanted to know if someone else L300D-11V did the same thing.

  I also wanted to know if anyone had any complaints or positive things on the laptop.

  Hello

  Unfortunately I n t have the L300 and I can't say much on the subject, but on my laptop the DC port doesn t pass. He fixed s and I think that it would be advisable to contact the ASP in your country. The technician must check to ensure that there is no hardware problem.

  I think that you should do this because you warranty is still valid and all can be fixed and replaced for free. the warranty covers this.

  Best regards and greetings mate.

• Satellite L300D-10 q - how much does a repair?

  Can anyone who has had a similar problem please let me know about how much a repair would cost for the following laptop.
  Toshiba Satellite L300D-10 q

  He started to extinguish itself, then new, then we noticed that the fan is not working could be overheating and plugging himself out of serious damage. Now, it will not be achieved even the post.

  Thanks for your help.

  Hey Ferret76,

  I think that no one can tell how much a repair for this laptop costs. It is based on spare parts and the working time of the technician. There are a few spare parts of many different available for every laptop and so no one can answer this question at the moment. You should speak with a technician. They can check the laptop and give you an estimate for repair.

  But before going to an ASP you need to clean the laptop. Maybe dust blocking the fan and so it s overheated and shut down. I also clean my laptop. I do it every 4 months and follow these instructions: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD7A01ZZ000AR01.htm

  Good luck! :)

• Satellite P20 - beeps at startup after cleaning the keyboard

  Hey!

  I have a Satellite P20, which is strange. I have cleaned the keyboard (deleted, took apart and cleaned all the keys) but when I boot up to now (I have connected the keyboard) it will * beep beep * beep beep beep beep * on me (sounds like one of those things in the hospital). If I wait for some time, it ends by starts XP but then some keys (5%) did not respond (S and arrow down to name a few).

  I tried to start with the keyboard disconnected and that works like a charm.

  Then it is the keyboard that is defective? (I'd rather not buy a new one just to have the same problem) or is it keyboard connector or hurt (I have unplug and connected the keyboard several times)

  I am very grateful for any help or advice I can get.

  Best regards

  / Martin

  It is strange, but maybe the keyboard is defective, as you say.
  Or you don t have the keyboard connected to mainboad correctly. Check again.

  Maybe a key is always pushed and get the beeps. Select this check box.
