  • Satellite A100-1011E - how to extend the battery life

    Hello world

    I would like to ask you for advice. Given that I just bought this laptop, I would not my battery life shorten as soon as my old laptop. You plug the power cable when the battery is fully charged? Since I'm on cell regularly, 3 h battery is not enough for me. All do you advise me to take the battery out and use that? We hope to get all the valuable tips here. Thank you!

    Hi jimmytee,
    After the available studies, newsletters and my experience, there is no need to remove the battery if fully charged when working with AC plugged in. It is recommended only to tell - and recharge the battery once a month, not more. You should not work with AC plugged on and removed the battery.
    Furthermore, I'm fighting currently with the battery in a new unit. The battery itself was very fast discharge with the unit is turned off and removed ca connection. Now, the Toshiba service changed the battery. Will see how the situation will be after a few days.

  • Is satellite L500-14N - possible to see the battery life?

    Hello

    is it possible to show the life of the battery in percent and in hours and minutes in the taskbar? (Windows 7 64-bit)

    Energy saving does not support Windows 7, I think. Are there any other utility that can show battery info?

    Hello

    > not only in percentage battery life
    That s a feature! ;)

    The battery life on Vista and Windows 7 displayed in percent. If you want in hours and minutes too you must install an additional tool such as Notebook BatteryInfo. Use Google to find this program!

  • Satellite A300-148 how to increase the size of the graphics memory?

    Hello..

    I have satellite a300-148, I update my laptop RAM from 1 to 2 GB but the VRAM is always 128 MB. and in the toshiba site write this:

    ((Graphics Adapter:))
    Manufacturer: Intel
    type: Intel® GMA X 3100
    memory: up to 358 MB total graphics memory available with 2 GB of system memory
    memory type: shared))

    But my laptop no graphics card (intel GMA X 3100) is (mobile intel 965) how can I solve this problem?
    There are different between the two adapters? How to increase my laptop memory graphic size?

    Please help me...
    thanx

    Hello

    > How can I solve this problem?
    Problem? What is the problem?

    Take a look here on this page of the Toshiba hardware specification:
    [Satellite A300-148 | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=EU&com.broadvis ion.session.new = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 150445]

    Laptop supports the Intel® GM965 Express chipset but the graphics chip is Intel® GMA X 3100
    As you can see the type of memory is shared
    What does that mean?
    This means that this graphics card shares memory with the main memory. Everything is controlled automatically by the graphics driver.
    If the memory of the graphics card is required then graphic driver would assign memory automatically to GPU.

    I hope this helps...

    In any case, you must change the parameters of the webcam. If you move the mouse on the side of the life of the screen that the webcam menu should appear. Then click Properties and there you can change all settings, brightness, contrast, profiles, etc..
    Just a little more play these settings to find the best for you. ;)

  • Replacement of with SSD HD improves the battery life?

    MacBook Pro 13 "mid-2010.  My MBP is faking a bit slow compared with my Mac Pro 5.1 running an SSD as drive.  I have reviewed a SSD in the optical Bay Assembly or Assembly may be two SSD...

    How this may affect the life of the battery, is the original battery, I rarely use the MBP otherwise that plugged into the power, the count charge cycle is ~ 240.  If left for a week running but not connected, the MBP is run flat battery.

    Having two SSDS put more pressure on my battery or reduce his load? Whereas a Crutial 250 GB or two.

    A MBP will always run slower than a MacPro.

    SSD will affect the life of the battery for the better - less parts to be driven by the mobile battery

  • Goes on a trip - how to extend the battery life of my computer?

    So, I'm going on a trip soon on a bus and I want to be able to bring my computer, but it is running out of battery very fast. How can I save energy?

    You could:

    Looking out the window or talk to your neighbor instead of using the computer in the bus.

    Leave your computer at home.

    Buy a new battery.

    Take the power supply with you in case the bus has power ports for each or a few pairs of seats.

  • Satellite 5205-S505 - how to remove the battery with the damaged battery latch?

    I try to set aside my laptop (satellite 5205-s505) today. But I found that the release latch was damaged somehow. What can I do?

    My seriously damaged lcd. I have method to close the LCD to save energy (just use external moniter)?

    This battery is a very good question. I think you're the first person who asked it.
    If you cannot remove the only way is, I think, to disassemble the entire laptop and somehow free battery.

    When you use the external monitor, you have to use the FN + F5 key combination and switch to an external monitor only. Portable computer's LCD will be OFF.
    You can also check the Advanced display settings. Usually, you can also find settings to define where should be the office.

  • Satellite A300 - 25G, how to increase the flexibility of the volume knob?

    Is it possible to increase the sensitivity or responsiveness of the wheel of digital volume control on the front of the laptop?

    Front of the A300, I had another Toshiba laptop with an analog volume control wheel, which was much more comfortable to use. A tour would only serve across the entire volume. The a300 wheel must be returned several times to systematically reduce the volume.

    As it is digital, I imagine that there is some sort of driver control wheel, so we need a way to set the sensitivity of it. But I couldn't find anything myself.

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    > Is it possible to increase the sensitivity or responsiveness of the wheel of digital volume control on the front of the laptop?

    I doubt that this is possible I have a U400 and another laptop Satellite with the same volume wheel and didn t find settings that could increase the sensitivity of the volume wheel

    You can increase the volume in Control Panel-> sound-> playback and set the volume level separately.

    See you soon
