Satellite A50: Need the detailed specifications of the screen and DVD - RW

Hello

One of my friends had their murdered A50.
It suffered a blow hard with blunt when closed, which broke the screen and totally destroyed the hard drive.

This is probably beyond economic repair. However, I had a go at laptops before repair (mainly the Apple iBook - these have tiny parts and are quite difficult to maintain - the Toshiba looks easy).

I have two questions-

First, I removed the HARD drive and hooked it to an external monitor. The wireless appears to work, the charges of the battery and the system boots to the BIOS. I took the hard drive and it is writing off the coast, the data has been saved.

However, I can't get the DVD player to eject. I opened it with a paper clip, and it opens and closes fine manually. There don't seem to be getting no power anyway. Is this normal? It does not seem to have taken no external damage, it is easy to take the coverage of the case and take a look at the connectors.

Second, the screen is broken (just the glass, the rest of the top of the page looks very well). Anyone know what is the model of screen used in the A50? In addition, a source for this bit second hand would be great - pointers? (if this is allowed in the forum?)

See you soon,.

Hello

In my opinion the best way to order parts is to contact Toshiba service partner because it has detailed information on compatible parts. In addition, sometimes laptops come with different screens and if you want to be 100% sure what part is supported so ask the ASP.
However I found this site with a screen for an A50:
http://www.screentekinc.com/Toshiba__Satellite__A50--14.1_lcd_screen--(1024_x_768) _XGA.html

Well well about by car: in my opinion, the drive is broken and it should also be replaced.

Good bye

  • Satellite A500 - on the screen and the volume of media keys control the normal behavior

    Hello

    On my laptop Satellite A500, I have no screen 'volume bar' when I use the media keys of volume (located between the speakers). I find this odd, like many other phones that I use (including the Toshiba) have this feature. In addition, the volume bar between the - and + media symbols of the keys never lights upward.
    Could someone please confirm that those are normal behaviour? (Note that my Fn keys, utility eco work and so on).

  • Satellite U840T - mouse disappears on the right of the screen and down

    I have a problem with my Satellite U840T screen

    The mouse disappears on the right of the screen and the background in the black bars at the top and then the left side of the mouse cannot go to bars.

    In the display settings, everything is good, I think.

    Thank you for your help

    Hello

    I confused m.
    Your question isn't described very well.

    What do you mean exactly by: mouse disappears on the right of the screen and the background in the black bars at the top
    Do you mean the touchpad or the cursor?
    The laptop's touchpad supports the (multi-touch) gesture control feature, and this feature could be configured in the settings of the touchpad:
    + Control Panel-> mouse-> device-> settings settings tab.

    You will also find the option called shots of edge which opens the charms, app Switcher bar and toolbar Application simply by moving your finger between the edge of the touchpad to the centre.

    In this case the cursor is not visible.

    Hello

    According to my way of thinking, you want to export the file details of all your files on your HARD drive to an excel file or a txt file. If I'm right in this case, it is not possible to export the details of each & every file in the excel sheet.

    Hi inf24,

    It is difficult to say what is causing this problem, but such objects on the screen are normally associated with defective graphics card or wrong display drivers.
    I initially update the display driver, but only use the driver from Toshiba. Other drivers are not pre-tested and from my own experience, I can say that they could cause problems.
    Check this box!

    Regarding your CPU question I have no idea but if everything works at the moment it of pretty well! :)

    Greetings from the Germany and sorry for my bad English.

    Hello

    I think that it of difficult to say something about it, but I think that in this case, you can't do anything. The only chance is in touch with an authorized service provider because technicians can disassemble the laptop and check this box. If you disassemble the notebook you will lose you warranty so I n t this

    If you don't know where is the nearest ASP, you can search here:

    Simply contact the technicians. You will see that it s interesting to talk with them a little and they are friendly. ;)

  • Presenter PowerPoint on Mac mini mode displayed on the screen and the projector when using HDMI splitter

    We have a Mac mini connected to a screen and a projector via HDMI using a HDMI splitter.

    It works fine for most applications, but during presentations PowerPoint, presenter is displayed on the monitor and the projector.

    When I disconnected the mini Mac's HDMI cable and put it in a MacBook, the presenter appeared on the MacBook screen (as it should) and only the slide appears on the screen and on the projection screen.

    Of course if we have to use the MacBook for presentations instead of the Mac mini, you would need to have seen the presenter on both the screen and on the screen of the MacBook.

    In the Mac mini display preferences there is no button to "Gather Windows" when the Mac mini is attached to the screen and the projector via HDMI splitter is a tab "setting."

    But these two things appear on the MacBook when it is connected.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!

  • U100: Videos simultaneously on the screen and external beamer?

    Hello booklet users,.

    I don't have such a beautiful unit yet, but I think to get a. I guess I won't have too many problems with the screen and a small keyboard that I use a MDA Pro and I am very satisfied with the even smaller keyboard.

    But before you buy a Libretto U100 I really want to know if the book is able to show a video, which is included in a Power-Point presentation on the screen of the booklet as well as on a projector at the same time. Because this is not the case with my real Satellite phone, where I can run Power-Point presentations on both devices, but as soon as I start a video in the presentation, that it will only appear on my screen of Satellite.

    Thanks for sharing your experience,

    Walter

    Hello

    Usually on the satellite units, it should be possible to change the display devices with the FN + F5 key combination. So you can change the output to extern monitor/Beamer, TV, extended desktop display or you can clone display (laptop + monitor or laptop + TV).
    I put t know if you tried but check these possibilities.

    AFAIK the Libretto U100 also supports this utility and it should be possible to change the extended or video projector monitor output.

I live in the United Kingdom, so I tried signing up to them to choose the computer before the computer is out of warranty.

    Whenever I register, it says sorry, an unexpected error has occurred, please try again later. I have tried at least 20 times since yesterday and it doesn't seem to work. I have them even called and they told me, the service is stopped and will be fixed this morning but yet nothing works.

    Any solution?

    Hello

    If you want to contact Toshiba service partner in your country then why you don't call them?
    Toshiba page you will find the database with all service providers in the world.

    I don't think that you need to register something apart from the serial number of your laptop. But in my opinion this could also be done at the point of service.

  • Vista Home Premium boots with black bands on the sides of the screen and features limited after d/l-ing Windows updates

    Hello

    My Dell Inspiron 530 has recently started having problems starting. When I turn it on regularly, Windows Vista Home Premium starts with black bands on each side of the screen and your desktop extended / enlarged which does not display the start menu or the taskbar. I can navigate in the Panel, but when I click on the resolution of the screen, nothing happens and I'm unable to change the screen resolution. When I use CTRL and the mouse scroll wheel, I can reduce the size of the desktop icon, but the taskbar, nor start menu appears on the screen. I noticed that I can't start programs when the computer is in this State as well.

    I think that this problem started after I downloaded a game from 3 updates of Windows, but I do not know what updates they were.

    I am able to start safe mode and the office fills the screen normally. I don't know what steps I can take mode without fail to solve the problem of normal startup, however.

    Please let me know I you a glimpse into this situation because it is extremely frustrating. Thank you very much for your help!

    Hello

    Microsoft gives sometimes you updates for the 3rd party hardware: graphics, network cards, etc.

    You should only get the latest drivers for them to real hardware manufacturer's website, as Microsoft normally does nor those have the most recent drivers available as Microsoft relies of the 3rd party hardware Manufactuer to provide.

    But unfortunately, the only way to know which is the update of the problem is to install them one by one, until you find the 'wrong' for your installation.

    You can do a system restore to get back until it has been installed (which is NOT the best way to remove an update) or follow this method:

    'Remove an update'

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/remove-an-update

    I just reproduced the effect you mentioned.   I thought I was circled. Hahahaha,

    What you need to do is on your homescreen put 2 fingers apart on the screen and drag your fingers together.   The opposite for Zoom.   When you do this, you can make the icons of normal size.

    Then, from there, you will be able to get the settings and turn off magnification mode.
