• Satellite A205-S4577 - does?

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A205 s4577 for over a year now, and there is, while I was using internet, 4 months she just closed. After that, he not turn since then. There is no lights or anything, I tried to charge it for hours. I remember that earlier that day that I dropped the laptop a bed of a carpet.

  I think that did a lot of damage, because if there was no damage he showed right away, wouldn't it?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I m not an expert in computer science, but to me it sounds like a hardware problem. I think you should contact a service provider for help. Technicians can check your laptop.

  I can t imagine that s just a software issue because it doesn t turn on. Maybe it's a problem of the motherboard or the power on/off switch

• Satellite Pro M30 Win 7 - webcam does not work on msn messenger

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite Pro M30 Modell Nr.: PSM35E and just changed to Windows 7. But put him Nvidia card NVIDIA GeForceTM FX Go5200 Grafik 64 MB of RAM is not working properly.

  I could find a Vista driver and installed, have Aero + photos on the desktop, but my webcam does not work on msn messenger and this is the only way for me to see my family.

  Can someone help me?

  Thanks for your help

  Hello

  I m a bit confused; you have some problems with the graphics card or with the webcam?

  I assume you mean on external webcam connected to the USB port? Right?
  What happens if you connect the webcam to the laptop? Can win 7 recognize the device? Have you installed additional drivers for this webcam?
  Most of the time it s necessary to do so because I think that it s not Plug & Play device.

• Satellite A205-S4577 - multicolored mobile lines on screen

  I have an A205-S4577 (Vista) and have had problems with this laptop for about a year. I tried this last year of troubleshooting but has not had time to go in depth and had to buy another laptop in the meantime. I'm back to try and solve this problem, and in the meantime, I found that now the battery is dead and the laptop works only when it is plugged.

  In any case, the problem started all of a sudden, I would like to open a session, start and after a short period (approximately 5 minutes) my screen would disappear and I would get a bunch of colourful lines on the screen and would force power off of the machine. I was able to operate in all Modes of security. I found Toshiba and Applications recovery disks / drivers and today attempted to restart the whole machine. I was off to a good start and then "poof" these boring but nice lines appeared! EU force the machine to stop because lines prevents you from doing anything else. Now I can turn on only machine, will get the 'Security Mode' option, then when I select one, the laptop goes to never never land. I was able to boot the laptop using the recovery disks, obtained as a screen that asked a selection (missing to fast to see what was requested) and then the appararurent lines again. Any suggestions?

  Lines appear in all colors, sometimes green and blue, other times red and blue, not a constant model. Any suggestions will be appreciated. P.S. I already opened the laptop and cleaned the fans who have little dust! The machine is about 3 years old and more

  Hi nskmartinez,

  For me, it sounds like a hardware malfunction or the other of these lines are caused by the internal monitor or the graphics card itself. Way simpler to check that connects to an external monitor. If the same phenomenon occurs on external monitor its problem of graphics card and the motherboard needs to be replaced.

  If you need spare parts, you can contact a service provider authorized in your country. Guys are able to order all the parts of Toshiba. In addition, they can help allows you to replace the parts if you are not familiar with the disassembly of the laptop.

  Sorry for this standard more or less answer but here to user s only forum and if it s really a hardware malfunction you need professional help to get the spare parts and replace them. In addition, you have already tried the recovery disk that must be always and work and if not-online hardware problem.

• Satellite C660 C660D - Webcam color or black and white?

  Hello

  I was just wondering if the web camera on the Satellite C660/C660D is color or black and white?
  If its color, how can I change the color?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Of course he came s color.
  It s a common webcam you have just black and white webcam photo?
  In your case I would recommend you the webcam software options.
  Start the camera Assistant software, and in properties, you can find the option called backlight Compensation. Check this option.
  Also in the Image tab, you will find some controls like: brightness, gamma, hue, saturation and sharpness. Play with these settings.

• Satellite A205-S4577 Motherboard upgrade

  I'm having the same problem as nskmartinez did in June 2011,

  My question is: If the motherboard has solved the problem or not, and I would like to change my motherboard in any case to a different Board which is faster.
  If it is possible as an i3, i5, P67 or the new x 68, if this no what I can do to upgrade the jury? I have Toshiba Satillete A205-S4577 part # V000108030 Intel 945 integrated motherboard.

  Hello

  Sorry, mate, but the upgrade of the motherboard is not possible due to the proportion of page layout.
  You can only use a motherboard that is output to a Satellite A200/A205 series.

  Ask for the replacement of CPU or the upgrade?

  Well, you can use the CPU that is supported by the chipset.
  If the chipset would support the new processor so you have a good chance to get this quick.

• Satellite A300D-15B webcam does not - black screen

  Hi, I would appreciate the help. I have a new L300D-15 ter and we have problems with the webcam. It's less than a week. We use MSN a lot and noticed that sometimes the webcam has become black while on a video call - when I say black you could see us like shadows of contour. Once we waved our hands on the webcam and it seemed to come back to life, but othertimes we had to stop the video call and re - call to retrieve the image of the webcam.

  We phoned to Toshiba and reinstalled the driver but it seems to have done worse. When we opened the independent software for the cam us are visible for a second and then black. We tried on MSN it happened once but we could clearly be seen after a few seconds, and he remained on for the duration of our short call. This has happened on and off on the power supply.

  Some ideas would be appreciated.

  Have you tried looking at its properties?

  There are options here, you can activate night mode so you can see yourself when you use your camera.

  hope this will help... :)

• Satellite A300-V01 - webcam does not work with msn

  Hi all

  I was wondering if there was someone out there who could help me...

  I recently bought an A300/V01 and try to use the web camm for it, but whenever I open it on his own (not with msn or any other program), it freezes and will not work, and when I try to send my web cam on msn it tells me that there is no connected webcam.
  I'm pretty computer illiterate so iv tried to fix it myself but sadly failed.

  so, if there is someone out there who knows how to fix it would be great if you could help...

  Thanks xoxo

  Go to the Toshiba website and to update the camera/Webcam driver.

  Also try closing/leave the camera software help.

  You should also install Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1), if it is not installed.

  And to ensure that upgrade to the latest version of MSN Messenger.

• Satellite P300-1CN - error message when download of MSN messenger

  I recently updated my Satellite P300 - 1CN PSPCCE to Windows 7, after this everything seems to work ok but if I try to download msn messenger is comes up with an error saying the file may be corrupted hr: 0x8007000d.

  I am not the most technical of the world, but would like to know what I need to do on this issue!

  Help please!

  Hi Brian,.

  I think that it of really difficult to tell why you get an error when you download MSN messenger.
  Where do you download the Messenger? You should try MSN or Microsoft page.

  This will happen if you click on download or start the downloaded file?

  Have you noticed this behavior with other downloads too?

• Satellite A205-s4577 - horizontal lines on the screen

  I have satellite a 205-s4577.
  There are horizontal white lines on the screen as soon as I start it... it hangs at any point n that get these lines.
  It is also sometimes black or white background just black n.,.
  I contacted the service customer and update the drivers but nothing helped...

  It works on the mode safe and bios...
  This problem is very common when using ac power supply...
  But it works fine on battery only on first boot it hangs, then works correctly
  A center of service-tech said motherboard disappeared, without it seein juice by the description of the problem...

  Please suggest a solution... m a urgent need for assistance

  Well, I guess this also appears on the external monitor too
  Did you check that?
  Please do

  If the same symptoms would be visible outside monitors so it s GPU related problem I mean the graphics card could be affected and because the GPU is a part of the motherboard, then entire motherboard must be replaced so the tech service guy could be good

• Satellite P200-RT3 - the screen turns black during the Vista installation

  Laptop worked very very slow for a while (everything worked very well - just very very slow), so I decided to restart costs after the support of all my data to the top and make the factory since HARD drive restore.

  The recovery is going very well and then after restarting Vista and is preparing to launch for the first time (prob trying to load the graphical interface of Windows), display dies - black towers with some artifacts along the top of the screen. Restart in Save Mode does nothing once it is in mode safe is it says that "Windows is unable to complete the installation in mode safe process - please restart." Restart normally translates into artifacts, like LKG configuration.

  Think something went wrong, I did the whole process again with the same result...

  Thinking the recovery partition is buggered, I grabbed a Vista Home Premium disk and installed from there... same result.

  Think display Vista drivers are buggered, I installed XP Home to rule out the possibility of a crystal display liquid buggered... XP installed fine.

  Try the recovery again... no luck.

  Hello

  Just FYI: you can create a recovery disc yourself. You know about it?
  You must only start the Toshiba recovery disc creator, which is preinstalled on your laptop. You can find it on start > programs > TOSHIBA.

  The Toshiba Recovery disk contains an image of the factory settings and it s identical to option HARD drive recovery but the drive erases the entire HARD disk.
  In my opinion, the disk is very useful, because if your drive HARD get faulty and you need a new one you can restore the settings from the factory with this disc.

  Anyway, if you have a problem during the installation of recovery, you should go to an authorized service provider. It could be a hardware malfunction, because a mistake shouldn't t normally appear due recovery facility.
