• Satellite L650-11R: I can not disable the WiFi using Fn + F8 module

  Hello!

  I have a rather strange problem: I can not disable the WiFi using Fn + F8 module.

  It happens after reinstalling Windows. I installed Windows 7 Pro SP1 x 64 (MSDNAA). I installed the driver Broadcom WLAN, then Toshiba Value added package and Bluetooth Stack from Toshiba Web site.

  When I press Fn + F8 there is only a Bluetooth icon, I can enable and disable. And there is no WiFi icon.
  Wireless network card is listed in the Device Manager, it works.

  Before you reinstall Windows, when I had used pre-installed Windows 7 HP, it worked correctly: there were three icons, I could turn off/turn on WiFi, BT and the two WiFi + BT by pressing Fn + F8.

  Does anyone have a problem like this?
  Can someone help me?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hmm generally the FN + F8 should switch on / off the Wlan correctly.
  Maybe the WLan driver must be installed again even if the wireless network adapter is already visible in Device Manager.
  Try it

  Welcome & good luck

  When I reach the menu and press the last option "restore windows to defautl" it just says: "If the files are damaged or corrupt, please use Witch of the cd provided with your computer..." This option is to press OK (not then like some said guides)... and brings back me to the original menu...

  I tried the "full pc recovery", but I get the message "theres no directory valid blah blah blah, insert the CD rigth and or a HARD drive or select the backup location ', but it won't let me select any other directory...

  I can not recommend the purchase of a toshiba from this point on... his purchase as a cat in a bag...

  Hi dude

  > I can not recommend the purchase of a toshiba from this point on... his purchase as a cat in a bag...
  I put t agree with you.

  First of all I m owner of the satellite A210 as well and my laptop work properly since the first day.

  My A210 was not equipped with HARD drive recovery option, but there was a tool preinstalled called creative recovery disk Toshiba that helps create the recovery disk.

  If you want to retrieve the laptop, you need to boot from the recovery disc and should follow the instructions on the screen. All that s!

  If you are not able to boot from the disc then your ODD (CD/DVD) drive may be defective.
  This means that you need to replace the ODD.

  But note; not all dimensions are compatible because different master/slave/c-salt settings
  And this isn't just a case for Toshiba laptop, but for all mobile phones from different manufacturers!
  Ratings slimline don t support no rider, but are controlled by the firmware software and, therefore, you should choose one compatible

  You can also read a user manual are enough details and information about the recovery process so well in most cases, reading allows you to get more information

• Satellite U305-S5127 - where can I activate the HDMI?

  I have Satellite U305-S5127 and I am trying to connect my laptop to the TV via d - sub to I just bought a hdmi cable. I can't get the image on the TV. I installed the HDMI Control Manager, but he always asks me to allow HDMI.

  Where do I active HDMI?

  Hi genije011,

  Hmm why you installed the HDMI Control Manager?
  According to your assignment, you use a (portable) D - SUB cable to HDMI (TV), right? That means your laptop doesn't have an HDMI port, so there is nothing that you can turn on HDMI on your computer.

  I have never this HDMI VGA cable but normally if you have connected the cable for the two devices, press FN + F5 to switch between monitors.

  If your TV is also equipped with a normal D - SUB port you should try it without adapter and D - SUB cable only.

  Hello

  Your description is a bit confusing.
  So here are my Tips how to connect the laptop for WiFi using the Vista operating system.

  First check if your WiFi is turned on. You must use the key FN + F8 to go tot eh card WLan and then turn on the WLan switch on the side of the laptop.

  According to your WiFi (Atheros or Intel) card I advise to use a WLan configuration as Atheros Client Utility or Intel ProSet Utility tool.

  You can use these tools to configure WLan. I use one of these tools and I can connect and configure the WiFi network very easily.

  If you want to use the Vista WLan own configuration options, can access the network locations and right click on the WiFi connection.
  Choose then rebuilt Waln connection or something like that.
  Then choose your WLan which has been configured on the router WLan and put the right encryption settings and you should be able to connect to you wirelessly.

• Satellite A500 - 03P: unable to connect to the WLan using Win 7 + event message

  Hi all

  I recently bought the Satellite A500 with the offer included Windows7 while he was available late October 09.

  So I had the Toshibe DVD for the upgrade and followed the steps and Visa home premium upgrade to Windows 7. Now I have two questions.

  (1) I get a system event Notification after start, talk to me about the system event log. The full message is below.

  Unable to connect to a windows service
  Windows could not connect to the System Event Notification service. This problem prevents limited users to logon to the system. As an administrator, you can view the system event log to see why the service failed

  (2) I was able to use this laptop for the internet before the upgrade, both via a USB wireless drive as well to the office via a DSL modem.
  Now I can't access the internet after the upgarde of Windows 7!

  For example the Optus dial-up box pop up appears commandeLorsque I click on 'connect', it does not connect.

  Can anyone help please?

  Thank you
  C I

  Hey Buddy,

  (1) did you check the Configuration of the Service for this service? The Boot System Event Notification Service type must always be set to automatic. This service is absolutely necessary for Windows and shouldn't t be disabled or set to manual startup type.
  Check it!

  (2) to be honest I never heard on the internet BEFORE, but normally, it should also be possible to access the Internet with Windows 7.
  Make sure that the WLAN or LAN card is installed properly and check the TCP/IP settings. If you are missing some driver you can get on the page of Toshiba.

• Portege R700-14f - impossible to activate the WLan

  I want to set the standard windows 7 OS on the laptop (PT310E-R700-14f)
  I have problems to get Fn + F8.
  It won't let me turn off or turn on the bluetooth.

  Now I think the problem is with the driver of the wireless (broadcom) adapter

  The prepared image on toshiba has the Broadcom driver driver version: 5.60.48.42

  in the download section, I can only find the version of the driver:

  Broadcom Wireless LAN Driver Windows 7 (32/64) 5.60.48.35

  Best regards

  Hello

  Well, if the Wlan driver is not installed, then you won't be able to activate the WLan using FN + F8
  This means that you will install driver WLan.

  I recommend the WLan card. Install a diagnosis like Everest home Edition tool that will help you to get the WLan card details.

  All the drivers are located here:

• How can I activate the WiFi mini-PCI satellite 1905-S301 card?

  Greetz! I have installed a network card wireless mini-PCI in option in my Toshiba Satellite 1905-s301 specifications and turned on the power switch. MS Windows XP Home SP2 Pro edition recognized hardware and install its drivers - there is no cross or question mark next to the Atheros AR5001X + Wireless Network Adapter in Device Manager. However the connection of wireless network manager tells me that there is no current wireless network card. When pressing Fn + F8 a window appears saying that there is no build-in wireless LAN.

  What should I do to activate my mini-PCI Wireless LAN card? If possible, send your suggestions to my email, please!

  Hello

  You must activate the WLan switch on the side of the laptop!
  Additional select the WLAN card properties and check under the Advanced tab.
  There should be an option called turn on/off the Radio. You will need to fix on.

• Satellite A100-529: How can I enable the wireless network adapter

  Hi all!

  I'm new here, but I want to know how can I activate the wireless network device. On my Toshiba Satellite A100-529 keyboard is a Fn key that must be pressed with the F8 key to turn on the wireless network device. I did, but it does not work.

  What can I do to turn on my wireless device?
  Thank you!

  You are right. The FN + F8 key combination should be used to switch to the WLan card.

  But look, man. Have you checked if your laptop supports wireless network card?
  I think it does not support the minPCI wireless network card and the card does not exist!

  That's why the WLan card cannot be activated :) you know ;)

• Can I activate the Apple logo lit on the back of my 30 inch Apple display?

  Can I activate the Apple logo lit on the back of my 30 inch Apple display?

  It would be cool to see!

  It would be cool, but I don't think it was an aspect of the design. The back of my screen to the wall. The size and the quality of the image and the glass, I think, speaks for itself. The black Apple logo on finely designed aluminum case is very well see when switching from an office. We'll let the glowing Apple logos to Mac Air and MacBooks.

  Bravo!

• How can I activate the plugins?

  Hello

  I can not activate the plug-ins.

  Today, I had a problem with firefox using too much CPU resources. I restarted my browser in safe mode to see if addons are the cause. I also disabled all the plugins. After I found the defective addon, I inexplicable firefox in normal mode. There is unfortunately no way to activate plug-ins now.

  Whenever I have activate a plugin it shows as enabled in the plugin list. But the plugins are not loaded on sites requireing them (Mozilla plugincheck can not find plug-ins active either: https://www.mozilla.org/de/plugincheck/).

  Restart the browser did not help either. After each restart, all plugins are shown as invalid later.

  What way is there to activate the plugins?

  Thanks in advance

  You can delete the pluginreg.dat file in the Firefox profile folder and perhaps as well to reset addons.sqlite the plugin registry data bases.
