• Satellite A350-12J said to insert the DVD + "this is a system error.

  I recently bought a toshiba Satellite A350-12J...
  The computer tells you to insert the DVD + this is a system error...

  Please insert the DVD - disks to perform backup of the recovery disks.
  I hope it is of some help, I am now almost bald of pulling my hair!

  Hello

  You are not able to boot the system? Or what?
  What happens if you press F8 immediately after the laptop was turned on?
  You then see the start menu?

  If you can access the advanced boot menu, then you could try using the option called last good known Configuration (Advanced).

  If this will not help and you will not be able to restart the laptop then choose fix my computer-> Toshiba HDD recovery and reinstall the OS using the Toshiba HDD recovery option.

  See you soon

• Problems with the reader of CD/DVD on the Satellite A350-12j

  Hello

  I just bought my laptop, Toshiba Satellite A350-12j, two weeks ago and am generally happy with it, but I can't seem to read correctly the data DVD.

  When I try to play a DVD that I burned on my data desktop PC, the laptop starts to read, but takes very, very long time.
  When I try to copy the data on the DVD of my laptop, it takes forever (I tried once for 45 minutes and then abandoned) and after a while it starts to claim it can read most of the files on the DVD.
  It is not the data on the disks which raises problems, cause when I transfer those my desktop to my laptop computer on a Flash DRIVE instead of a DVD, files are copied immediately without problem.

  At first I thought it could be due to the DVDs themselves (I use TDK DVD + ROM), or perhaps that Vista was the culprit, but I tried the same exact discs on my friends laptop Medion also running Vista and it is having no problem whatsoever.

  Anyone have any ideas what could be the cause, or better yet, which could solve it?

  Thanks in advance!

  Hmm I think this could be a problem of DVD not entirely compatible.
  My laptop drive s couldn t read or write DVDs from different manufacturers.
  I tested a lot of disks and now I m using TDK DVD-R.

  But it of always different. Maybe your drive would not support this disc correctly, but another disk would be better supported

  I think you should test it simply. There are many manufacturers different drive don t give up buddy

• Satellite A350 - 12J Faliure of the BIOS after update.

  Hello world.

  I am owner of Toshiba Satellite A350-12J (it's the PSALME series). Recently I received the message in Toshiba Tempro, having said that I should update my BIOS, so I decided to do. I downloaded proprer version from the Toshiba site, which was 1.5 and follow the instructions to update (I want to mention here, this isn't my first update of the BIOS). After that update was done to my restarted laptop and does not start again. The screen is black all the time.

  When I try to turn the fan runs for a few seconds and then goes down, there is an activity in the USB and DVD devices but it's only for a few seconds and then more nothing.

  Oh, almost forgot that HARD drive also works. I read that in the Phoenix based BIOS there is that something called crisis recovery, so I tried, laptop starts in this mode (I can say, because in it is fan of fashion goes up to system and RPM max tries to boot from USB Floppy).

  I tried crisis Revovery in several combinations and during the process, it seems that it is flashing my BIOS (crisis recovery disk whith Floppy is read for about 2-3 minutes), but after I wait and give him time to reflash (10-15 minutes each time) for computer laptop stiil starts.

  I think that maybe this version of BIOS (1.5) is bad or something. Maybe Somone have original BIOS for this laptop, I would be very grateful for these BIOS or maybe someone has an idea of what is wrong there.

  In case someone has the original BIOS was kind enough to send me, here is my email:

  I ' sorry for my English, it is not my mother tongue.

  Hello

  > I have a Toshiba Satellite A350-12J (it's the PSALME series).
  It s NOT PSALME series but series PSALWE!

  > I decided to do. I downloaded the correct version of the Toshiba site, which was 1.5
  On the page of Toshiba Europe, I find the BIOS update version v2.10

  However, there is only one real solution;
  You should get in touch with ASP in your country in order to solve this problem.

  Hello

  Is it possible to change the action of he keys music on a Satellite A350-12J to open Itunes instead of Media Player?

  Hello

  According to the manual and my own experience, I can say that's not possible. You can only start Media Player or DVD Toshiba.

  But I've created an interesting thread here in the forum. User DeKHaN founded Microsoft software to configure these illuminated buttons:

• Chicony webcame is not working on the Satellite A350-12j and Win 7 64 bit

  Hello

  I always get different errors as
  "graphics make it fail."
  "the device is locked by another program.
  etc...

  I tried many things and watch them on a lot of messages, but nothing does. I installed a lot of drivers and programs to solve, but nothing works.
  at first the camera was ok but now nothing seems to help and the camera is broken...

  Can you help me??

  The user Symbian wrote that her webcam works fine! He used the software/driver for the Toshiba page as well

  Since the Skype reports an unknown error too, I guess that this whole thing has noting to do with the webcam software, but with your Windows 7 installed!

  Seems a registry keys, files or all what it might be, are confused upward!
  In your case, I would try a new installation! Install Win 7 and the Toshiba drivers/software.
  Then test the webcam.

  Don t install any 3rd party software before you would test the webcam!

• Satellite A350-12J: what BIOS should I use

  Hi all...

  don't know what bios download, can't see vids, audio only... (avi file)...

  Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

  Hello

  Why you n t know what BIOS is compatible?
  Where is the problem?

  Satellite A350-12J seems to belong to the PSALWE series. The number should be placed at the bottom of the unit.

  If you choose this model number on the European driver Toshiba page then you would get the BIOS and all the necessary Vista drivers for this device.
  The page provides the BIOS for vista 32-bit and 64-bit. If the Vista is 32 bit OS then take the BIOS for 32 bit

  But to be honest, I always put t know what problem is your ad is very short all not really useful

• Satellite A350-12j - cannot turn off light Mediabuttons

  Hello

  I bought a Toshiba Satellite A350-12j, and I think it's a fantastic phone!

  2 days ago after about 3 months of use, it began to slow down, so a friend of start me 'Cleansing' of my laptop. (Some progs antispyware, CCcleaner, defragmentation, run..) and it also took some start programs op in the MSCONFIG.

  After this cleaning, we installed AION and it runs great, computer is fast, once again, all good. Until last night, when I was ready to put the buttons of media and the Strip-light little above the touchpad and the Toshiba brand out, so my battery would last longer, it has stopped working.

  Whenever I press the icon to boot, only this icon turns off and then the lightning is reactivated. It sounds like a stupid problem, but it lowers decreases your battery. Now, I checked back on in the MSCONFIG and already ran a repair of the system, but nothing seems to help...

  Can someone help me with this stupid problem please :)

  Friend, Niels

  -Sorry for my bad English, I'm from Belgium-

  Hello Niels

  Open it please help Toshiba > Optimize > Toshiba hardware settings.
  If I remember well there must be tab on lighting and the option toggle.
  Check please if it will works.

  You can also try is to remove preinstalled value-added package and after restarting the laptop installed the latest version, you can find on the Toshiba support page.
  I'm sure that you'll be able to control the new lighting option.

• Re: A few questions with the Satellite A350-12J

  My father-in-law's cell phone is the Satellite 350 and I think there 12j after his name.

  We re-installed Vista 32 bit the other day and he said that some things do not work as they should.

  First of all, if he presses the FN key, and say the s, the brightness, it works but he used to have a small dock type thing will appear at the top of the screen with icons of FN button. The other don t FN keys work well as the permutation of switch monitor.

  Second keys soft touch media don t work as turning off the lights behind them or bring up media player.

  We have evidence and tried to install the value pack but he said during the installation that he was withdrawing the package so it must have already been installed. After having re-installed, there is no difference. I can't find any program or whatever it is in the Panel for her.
  Also, I tried the same thing to the hardware configuration. Once again, it seems telling herself it was there and uninstall. Yet once I re-installed but t still can't find anything for him anywhere for me to change any settings or anything like that.

  I don't have the laptop with me good that now it is at home, but I think I got it.

  All ideas welcome.

  Each Toshiba laptop comes with the pre-installed operating system and the old A350 will be delivered with Vista, so I would like to know if it is possible for you to use this original picture of the recovery.
  Have your father in law created recovery DVD such as recommended by Toshiba?

  I guess you are trying to install the version of Vista clean, right?

• Re: Satellite C650D-12J - recovery of missing HARD disk image

  I have a Satellite C650D-12J with Windows 7 home premium 64-bit. For some reason, she came back to 32-bit. Everything I need on the computer was backed up. I tried to do a complete system restore by pressing F8 and followed the instructions.

  The response I get is that the recovery of HARD drive file is missing. I looked at the partition of the D drive on the computer, there is nothing there. I have also no internet access then uses a machine to friends of this post.

  Is it possible download drive HARD copy on my laptop and recover the laptop of the software?
  If so, how do the hand on the software and use it?
  Please be nice to me I'm old enough and I have enough trouble understanding basic use to much technical jargon.

  Thanks much for any help you can give.

  Hello

  I ve checked specification for your laptop and it says that your laptop has been delivered with the 64-bit version only.
  > For some reason, she came back to 32-bit.
  Something like this is NOT possible. You can have the 32-bit version only if a 32-bit version using Microsoft OS installation (clean OS install). Best evidence missing original 64-bit recovery image.

  > The response I get is that the HARD drive recovery file is missing.
  Where you can see this message?

• Can satellite A350 - I change the size of the partition?

  Hello

  When I bought my Satellite A350 I noticed that she was divided into 2 discs, 1 C: drive called Vista who had 149GB and the other player called E: data which has 147 GB with 141 GB of free space that contains a folder named HDDRecovery giving a total of about 300 GB.

  What I would like to make which I do not know if it is possible, unless I send it away is the following: unpartition 2 readers is 1 disk, partition it then again in 2 discs but this time Vista C: drive to have 250GB while the other drive E: data with the recovery of 50 GB. I have the recovery disks as well. Do you know if it is possible to do what I want without having to send in the manufacture? And if so, how?

  I also run Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1.

  See you soon

  Hello

  Hmmm. You can try to reduce the second partition in disk management.

  You can find it in the control panel. You will find the link to the System Maintenance and then click Administrative Tools to open the Administrative Tools folder. Click computer management to open the computer management window. You'll find disk management.

  As I said above, you could try to shrink, first of all, the second partition, and then could attempt to add the free space on the first partition. But to be honest, I doubt that this would be possible because the free space would be located behind the second partition and you can't add it to the first partition C.

  Anyway, check it and play around maybe it will be possible
  But note; You should have the recovery disk created because there is always a small risk that you would confuse the hard drive.

• Satellite A350 - lines on the screen

  Hi all

  About 6 months ago I bought a Satellite A350. Had no probs at all until there is about 2 weeks where a really faint horizontal line would appear running on the screen, about halfway to the top. Then a few days ago the bottom all the half of the screen went sort of grey with very thin vertical lines... half still apparently normal superior.

  Anyone know what this could be? Any help would be appreciated

  Hello

  > Anyone know what this could be?
  In my opinion, the case is clear: the internal display seems to be defective and must be replaced or have you tried an external monitor? If the external monitor works properly, you need a new internal view.

  An authorized service provider can help you share and order a new one. On the Toshiba page, you can search the nearest ASP.

• Satellite P100 - cannot get the CD/DVD writer to work under WXP Pro

  Hello

  I recently updated my Satellite P100 - 188 (PSPA3E) to run Windows XP Pro SP2.

  I can't have the CD/DVD writer to work well. I looked on the downloads page, but there seems to be nothing. It reads the CD/dvd, but allow me to write to them. If I put a blank CD in nothing happens.

  Someone has ideas how to get this working again?

  Thanks in advance...

  Kind regards

  Hi Matt
