• How can I disable secure on my Satellite L500-1Z1 start?

  Hello!

  I need to install FreeBSD on my laptop. But I can't find in the BIOS how can I disable secure boot.
  Please, help me. How can I disable startup secure on my laptop?

  Thank you! Sorry for my English!

  Hello

  Satellite L500-1Z1 BIOS doesn't support secure boot.
  That's why starting secure isn't turned on or off and it should be possible to install any system.

• Satellite L500 - keyboard idle after the mode 'sleep'

  Satellite L500, Windows 7, keyboard become idle after waking up from his sleep. Restarting solves the problem.

  Help would be welcome please!

  Hey William,

  That s odd, but in my opinion you should try a BIOS update. BIOS version latest for your laptop, you can download from the Toshiba page:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

  But let me give you a little advice: update of the BIOS is always a bit risky so make sure that you are logged on as administrator. In addition, extract all the files from zip archive and close all programs running (also AntiVirus).

  By the way: you use pre-installed Windows 7 in Toshiba or did you do your own installation of Windows?

• Satellite L500 - keyboard arrows using problems creates letters and numbers

  New laptop, Windows 7, 4 GB RAM, etc.

  Just restored to the State of factory again, but nothing helped.

  Whenever I have use arrows etc., makes the letters and numbers coming up, not on every key shot but on say every second. The pad also tends to spit out the wrong numbers so intermittently, in word, excellent and other programs. The correct keyboard is selected. The arrow towards the low tends to do the to come as the right arrow brought a up arrow to the left is and the up arrow seems ok.

  I'm stumped, any ideas?
  Thank you

  Hi whatnani,

  If you have already restored the laptop back to factory settings and checked the correct keyboard layout the case is clear, your keyboard is faulty and should be replaced by a new one.

  Satellite L500 is a fairly new model, so it must be covered by the warranty. Simply contact an authorized service provider and ask that:

  Good luck! :)

• Satellite L500-(128) & start a Linux Live USB Stick

  Hello

  Can someone tell me if it is possible to boot from a USB stick (for example with Xubuntu 9.10 on it) on a new Satellite L500 (-128)?

  She has the necessary options USB - HDD it in the BIOS for this?

  The owners of any Satellite L500 there able to give accurate information? would be appreciated. I could do with the knowledge before you buy one.

  Thank you very much.

  Yes, the L500 can boot from USB Flash Drives. I believe that all 2008-2009 Toshiba laptops can boot from USB :)

• Satellite L500 - keyboard does not work

  Hello

  I have Vista L500 with a dead keyboard. This machine has not been abandoned or anything it is spilled on it. I plugged USB keyboard external that works. The laptop keyboard does not work. I flashed the BIOS, update drivers, held shift for 10 sec (read on another forum), reset computer, check the updates of Windows Vista and ran 3 checks of Virus.
  Everything is perfect, just no keyboard?

  What should I check? What is a motherboard problem?

  Thanks for any help :)

  Hello

  Can enter you the BIOS (F2 key) with internal keyboard?
  If it isn't the internal keyboard seems to be defective and must be replaced

  I don t think you can do more. I mean you've tried everything what is possible and if an external keyboard works the installation of the OS should be ok.

  The keyboard can be ordered and replaced from an authorized service provider. Do you know how to contact the guys?

• Satellite C660 keyboard issue typing

  I've been using a foldable keyboard and a remote keyboard and have had problems:

  1. characters not showing when the entries.
  2. jump to type position to another location usually outside the box that I type in the slider.
  3. repeat at the striking of the characters.
  4 actions ie backspace does not.

  These problems do not seem to occur in Gmail and do not move as I type this.
  The problems occurred up to now in Google Calendar and text doco-connection to a site.
  The problem occurred with edge keyboard once so I wonder if it's a malfunction or a virus.

  Any ideas?.

• Satellite L500-14Z starts to beep when it reaches 10% of battery

  Greetings,

  As I installed the sound card driver on my laptop, it always starts to beep when it reaches 10% battery in every 10 seconds. It is not a voice of Windows, but I tried to look for the sound controls and even the BIOS to disable this thing. It may be useful in some cases, but I really want to get rid of him or to use only if the screen is off and I do not see the level of battery charge.

  Overall, the question is, how do I disable or control the sound signal after the 10% battery level without uninstall the Realtek audio driver?

  Yours Sincerely,

  Fifty

  Hello

  You can disable it in:
  Start > Control Panel > Sound

  There, click the sounds tab in sound properties

  Choose in the small window called sound and critical battery alarm choose no sound.

  Apply the changes and restart the laptop.

• Satellite L500-1XC - why my keyboard is acting funny?

  I have a Satellite L500-1XC. I reinstall my OS (Windows 7 64-bit) using HARD drive recovery option. But after I did it I have problems with my keyboard.
  When I turn on my laptop and start windows, it just automatically starts typing random continuous letter when I'm even not touching my keyboard. (for example, when I open an empty Notepad file it comes automatically types random letters). I guess it's a software problem.
  So please be kind enough to give me a solution for this. :)

  Dylan

  Hello Dylan

  Please install new OS using the HDD recovery procedure. If the same thing will happen again it must relate to defective hardware keyboard.

  What software should give order to keyboard to act on this way?

• Re: Satellite L500-1XJ - changed keyboard

  Bought a Satellite L500 - 1XJ 32-bit with Windows 7 second hand from a friend.
  It worked perfectly until the Toshiba files were accidentally deleted.
  Cannot find it anywhere, so I guess they have been permanently deleted.

  I tried the restore without success.
  Also the keyboard is now mixed up IE for the @ I have to use shift 2 instead of travel "."

  What can I do?

  What Toshiba files do you mean exactly?
  Maybe Toshiba image files?

  With regard to the problem of keyboard layout:
  I guess that the language of the keyboard has been changed.

  Usually, you can add and change the keyboard language in:
  Panel-> clock, language and region-> region and language-> keyboards and languages-> change keyboards.

• Re: Satellite L500 - 19 X - start the Webcam with Windows application

  I lost my webcam on the Desktop Application.

  Can I bring back by accessing the Web camera Application / Program (86) / Toshiba / Web camera Application and clicking on the Web Camera Application .exe. But it do not reappear when I boot. I have the Auto Run has ticked.

  My laptop is the Satellite L500 - 19 X, Windows 7
  Thanks for any help.

  Hey William,

  Normally in the webcam software you choose whether the application should be started with Windows or not.
  Did you check that?

  In addition, you should check it in msconfig (start > run > msconfig). There you can find a list of all the programs that start up with Windows. Make sure that the software of the webcam is not disabled.

  In the worst cases, you need to reinstall the software, but it only takes a few minutes. ;)

  If external USB keyboard works properly, the problem of double letters is related to the breakdown of internal keyboard.
