• Satellite P500/020 is too quiet

  I just bought a new Satellite P500 and at full volume, is not yet strong enough to watch a movie, unless I have use headphones.

  The audio output is also very poor, I have some external speakers that my old laptop will distort easily, this one wont.
  I tried to adjust all volume controls and play with dolby but it just seems to have a very low output.

  Could this be related to win7? I had to leave my old laptop when I want to listen to. Any suggestions?

  Hello

  I had a similar problem in Vista and Win7 and I need to check the sound settings and make sure that noise was going to the speakers rather than another device.

  Right click of its (speaker) icon on the toolbar and check that the playback device is correctly set to 'speakers' - Mine also says Conexant Pebble high definition Smart Audio Defalt Device.

  There is also a Volume Mixer here option to balance the sounds throughout the system for dfferent applications. Here I have also noticed that when you start a player or the browser you get a new option for its control so double check it when you start your movie.

  Good luck

• Satellite P500-190 stuck in a loop

  Well, I try to summarize what has happened so far.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite P500-190 has started acting as each task is too big for him, constantly showing disk hard loading, programs did not respond for a while... then I ran the reconverty tool, reset the c drive, the problem still there.

  I ran all the error detection of characteristics of pc, no hardware problems or software detected. So I installed malwarebytes anti-malware and ran a scan, it finds errors, but before I could act, the program froze again no response. Press ctrl alt del, black screen, no response... reboot. Now my dosent pc even trying to start windows, only error detection program and each restart goes like this, even after going through the program as it is said.
  I tried to get to the other menus of repair, but it says I must be logged in to do this.

  Any ideas how to continue?

  Hi bug

  Please reinstall the recovery image and boot OS without having to install additional stuff.
  Do not connect to the internet and check the functionality. Open some pre-installed apps and see if they will not work correctly.

  Play around with these factory settings and let us know if there is a problem.

• Satellite P500 boot nor OS install

  Hello & lead greetings to all friends of the Forum.

  Please, could someone kindly look into this problem for me.

  My laptop, a Toshiba Satellite P500 is defective. It will boot after post and as soon as it reaches the "Starting Windows" (WIN 7) logo splash, it freezes and it will stay like that for hours. I changed the hard drive, the memory modules, I tried to reinstall the operating system, I tried to boot with a Linux Live CD, Live USB and DVD USB, but all help drive does not. I changed the BIOS configuration, and then reset to default, again without success.

  Don't you think it's a fault of MB, CPU or GPU?

  And someone has a suggested method of remedy?
  I thank you all in advance and will be happy to help anyone!

  Thanks again!

  Hello

  You have already replaced the common areas like the HARD drive and memory.
  It was my first idea of memory or the HARD drive may be affected, but if you are sure that the new parts are ok, then the problem might be related to the motherboard.

  Usually if the CPU would be affected, then the POSITION could not be transmitted correctly.
  So it seems that this motherboard you could go wrong function which means that the fix will be really expensive since the new motherboard is one of the expensive laptop parts

  Hello

  The forum already contains these discussions where notebooks will freeze after 5 or 10 minutes of play. Have you read them?

  Now it s not easy to say what causes this problem but first of all you need to install the latest driver of Toshiba display. Don t use non-Toshiba drivers, as they can cause the overheating!

  Also make sure that you use the latest version of the BIOS and it s useful to clean the laptop time using a jet of compressed air.

• Satellite P500-1DX will not accept password

  Satellite P500-1DX - Windows 7.
  Not connected this morning no problem, return to work will not accept password.
  Had not implemented the password reset disk, but have one created from my old laptop which is vista OS.

  However, when I enter the P500 it runs the wizard and an error occurs.
  The laptop has perfectly to update Norton 360 on it is probably not a virus.

  All ideas

  Hello

  What password do you mean exactly?
  BIOS or Windows user password?

  If you're talking about BIOS password then I have some bad news for you; You cannot reset a unknown BIOS password. Only a Toshiba ASP technician may remove unknown BIOS password.
  But if you talk to windows user password, then you could reset/clear the password by the new installation of the operating system for this you can use a HARD drive recovery option.

  PS: I found this article on resetting a password account user in Vista or Windows 7. I did not try it, but some people on the net reported that the account password could be changed successfully

• Satellite P500 PSPG8E - buddies Bios 3 times - a long two short

  Hello

  This laptop supports Phoenix BIOS.
  You use a google for Phoenix beep codes for details on the meaning of the code.

  But in General; the code means that an error has been detected on the motherboard. The POST (power on self-test) cannot be passed.
  Theoretically, it may be a RAM issue, but it's just a suggestion.

• Installation of Windows 7 64 bit on a Satellite P500

  I bought the above system in August last year with 32-bit Windows 7 installed. I understand that it is not possible to upgrade and to a complete new installation. Is it necessary to format the hard drive first? Have backed up all my data (there was not a lot), but wonder if there is something else I need to know before you continue. Any help would be much appreciated.

  Hello

  I m a bit confused because I have too many Satellite P500 and, as far as I know, this laptop model comes with 64-bit only.
  Can you please tell us what P500 you exactly (P500-xxx)?

  You are right; before installation Win7 HDD needs to be formatted. If you have installed the OS in the past, I guess you know how it works.
  Associated with Toshiba here are two things you should know before starting with the installation of Win7 64 bit:
  # Create recovery with the original Toshiba image DVDs. This disk, you can use if you want to have the factory settings once again.
  # Drivers, tools and utilities must be installed in the proper installation order. If you ned some hep with it let us know.

• Satellite P500 - blue screen on webcam whenever I try to use Skype

  Whenever I try to use Skype all I get is a blue screen where my webcam should be. I checked to see if my webcam doesn't work at all, and all I get is the web cam iniliziation failed Please check device and restart.

  I tried this but nothing helped. I also tried to reinstall the camera and update the drivers. Still nothing.
  Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. I was told that if I update the BIOS it might be useful, but I also said that this could screw up the laptop completely...

  Brenton

  In front of me, I have Satellite P500 and I use it almost a year now. Since the first day I use it with Win7 preinstalled original and Skype.
  Up to now, I have strength to have one problem with cam or Skype. Everything works fine.

  Are you using the original pre-installed OS? Since when you noticed this problem?
  You can use cam with other applications?
  Cam is listed in Device Manager?

• Satellite P500 - noise varies and is too quiet

  Hello again,

  I had some problems with speakers this time.
  Since there are Harmon/Kardon speakers installed in the computer, the sound itself is fine.
  However, it is not.

  Sound is too quiet, even if I listen to music on the max volume.
  As well, I noticed the sound fluctuates all the time and there are crackling noises.
  All audio drivers are up to date, but they did not help.

  Could you please tell, what's the problem? Thank you!

  Perhaps what is its volume in the drive that you use low upgraded? Select this check box.

  Friend of mine has bought Satellite P500 last month. We have installed OS, created recovery discs and tested sound using Skype, Winamp, Windows Media Player and watch blu - ray discs.
  With the sound, everything seems to be OK.

• Re: Satellite P500 - 1 CG-conexant cx20583 driver for xp x 64 wanted

  Hello...

  I installed on my laptop (Satellite P500 - 1 CG) windows XP x 64 and already found almost all the drivers, but still, I can't find the right drivers for the sound, already downloaded on the web that some pilots who were supposed to be for XP x 64, but none of them do not work.

  Can anyone help?
  Sound card is conexant cx 20583

  Hello

  Unfortunately, there are no drivers for Windows XP 64-bit on the Toshiba driver page.
  As a solution, you should go to the provider's site to download or use programs like the genius of pilots to collect.
  Note that some drivers did not at all exist.

• Satellite P500-153 - computer freezes during absence after - min

  Hey mate,

  What additional software you have installed?
  Have you updated to the drivers and what OS you have installed?

  In this case, it's really hard to say what is the cause, so you should test with factory settings and see what happens.

  Hello

  The whole story is quite simple. Your laptop is shipped with the BT module and preinstalled Toshiba Bluetooth stack and Toshiba is responsible for the functionality of BT module with pre-installed software. It is tested and should work correctly.

  On that moment when you've taken the decision to use a third party software developed by another company, they should help you with support.
  You'll be really lucky if anyone here have the same model of laptop and use the same software but before you wait here I recommend you to check the BlueSoleil under http://www.bluesoleil.com/support/Default.aspx customer support

  They have the best experience with own products and I think also that they tested the feature on different hardware platforms.

• Re: Editing on Satellite P500-12F .mts files

  Hi, I have a question about the change. MTS files:

  My laptop is a Toshiba Satellite P500-12F / Core 2 Duo P8700 2.53GHz / RAM: 4 GB HD: 500 GB / BD - RE DL / 18.4 "/ Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit /"

  And I use Corel video studio pro X 3 to edit my SD videos and I was very happy with it until I tried to use the software to edit HD videos very short 2-4 minutes long that I got from a friend to test it before buying my HD camcorder.

  These videos are played on the laptop without problem using WMP or video studio pro x 3 in the preview window, the problem starts when I add another track of overlay to make modifications or any title or effects on the overlay track as I used to do with SD videos.

  If I do any sort of editing and try to see the changes in the preview window, the image moves very slowly, vibrates and the sound is broken, it seems that I'm editing a 24 hours of work not 2-4 minutes. clips.

  So I do not understand where is the lie of the problem, what is the spec of the laptop? What codecs do I need to install? Or the settings that I need to do?

  bye the way, if I decide to save the changes I made for the video it is so annoying to check during the preview/editing process, the final file plays great without problems and in HD quality.

  I wonder if someone can help me.

  Thank you

  Hello, Armelle

  Please don't get me wrong, but I do not understand the relationship between issue described and Toshiba laptop.
  Don't you think that it is the related issue of Toshiba or you should speak with the support of software manufacturer?

  This application can be installed on your laptop as part of the recovery image, but I don't think that Toshiba is responsible if you have a problem with a software feature.
