  If so, this would mean that the adapter is OK.

• Re: Satellite A500-1 - slow after blue screen

  Hi all

  I've owned a Satellite A500-1 in a year with no problems at all until a few days ago. When it tuning on it gave me a blue screen of death, and after 10 seconds, it turned blue, so I couldn't read error.

  I noticed reduced performance since it happened. Especially when you play games or movies HD, the picture and sound will freeze every few seconds. This happens in Windows 7 and Ubuntu. I did a new install of both, but the problem persists.

  I scanned the hard drive and memory errors, but it wasn't everything. Cant someone give me some advice, please?

  Thank you

  Hello

  > This happens in Windows 7 and Ubuntu. I did a new install of both, but the problem persists.
  This would mean that the problem is hardware-related and operating system installation seems to be ok, but it could be anything and it s is not easy to say what part is affected.

  Some parts, you can check yourself like RAM and HARD drive.

  http://www.HitachiGST.com/HDD/support/download.htm#DFT
  With the Drive Fitness Test, you can test your HARD drive. Download the CD image, burn it to a CD and boot from it. Then you can test the HARD drive.
  On the same site is a user's guide if you want to know more.

  http://Memtest86.com/
  Memtest86 is a diagnostic tool to check the RAM. Here, you can also download a CD image.
  It s easy to use. Run the test of 3-4 hours and then you will see if the RAM has some errors.

  If both tests cannot find an error, it must be another problem as the motherboard or the CPU. For such a diagnosis, you must contact an authorized service provider. They can help you get rid of this problem. You can find a complete list of the guys here:

• Satellite A500-1GL - slow WiFi

  Bought a Satellite A500-1GL, because he promised performance a few weeks ago and I was disappointed.
  Lasts longer the laptop much longer than children should start up, but this isn't the painful question, I had struggled to trouble.
  When connected to the router it downloads to 9,46 Mb/s but I bought a laptop for mobile convenience.
  When there is wireless download speed gives a very painful 0.09 Mb/s.
  Here's what I've tried so far.

  Seller told me it was a problem of Internet Explorer and download Firefox.
  It took nearly an hour and has not made a difference.
  I disabled the virus checking and firewall individually and collectively and no help.

  Was told to change the channel on the router, I've done and no difference.

  Then said that if I changed the TX auto at 100% power level the problem should be solved.
  Download but always at the same painful level.

  Laptop of the child works very well exactly in the same places in the House, at 9 more Mbps, where my brand new Toshiba crawls to 0.09, or sometimes 0.10 MB/s.

  I also tried to turn all devices wireless into house arrest, but it did not help.

  Can someone help me please. I'm at my wits end and regretting spending so much money on this «high-performance notebook»

  Oh, I'm on Windows 7, have updated the Realtek RTL8191SE Wireless LAN 802.11n PCI-E NIC and am ready for the hills.

  Help! ................................please!

  Have now updated the WLAN and the BIOS (?) but still not good.
  A lot of reading of problems like that of machines Toshiba.
  Really thought it was a good brand.
  Blood pressure is very high.
  I guess I'll be back tomorrow and get my money back.
  Not suitable for use, it was sold.

• Satellite A500-134 fan problem

  Hello!

  I recently bought a laptop Toshiba A500-134, and I have two problems with that.
  First of all, the largest: fans will always practically. Currently, the temperature is the following (I checked with Everest):
  CPU: 37
  CPU 1 core: 36 c
  CPU core 2: 36 c
  DispIO GPU: 46C
  MemIO GPU: 44 c
  The laptop temperature: 34 c

  The speed of the fans (utility Toshiba): 73% and sometimes more (and this is waaay out loud)
  Is this normal? Tried another (same type) for laptop and seems he did the same things. He doesn't do anything, that the Vista desktop are running, and the fans are still ongoing.

  The second problem is a high tone sound from speakers. In my view, the processor to affect it. When I change the portable powersaving mode, the sound is silent, or it disappears.

  Hey Buddy

  To be honest I n t see a problem with the temperature of your fan or your laptop.
  CPU and GPU temperature appears to be low and there s nothing unusual.

  Cooling performance modules can be changed in Vista's power management:

• Satellite A500 - display driver stopped responding

  Hello

  3 weeks ago, I bought a brand new Toshiba A500. I post here because I found no useful solution.
  Here are the specs:

  Processor: intel core i3 M330 2.13 GHz
  Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M (1024 MB)
  Hard drive: MJA2320BH G2 (320 GB, 5400 RPM, SATA-II)
  RAM: 2 X 2 GB DDR3 - 1066 DDR3 SDRAM (7-7-7-20 @ 533 MHz) (6-6-6-18 @ 457 MHz)
  Audio: Realtek ALC272 @ Intel Ibex Peak PCH
  System: Windows 7 64-bit, made at Toshiba

  The question is: random situations, the screen is in turn black for a few seconds, then the message is pop up saying "display driver stopped responding and has recovered - display driver NVIDIA Kernel Mode Driver, Version 187.98 stopped responding and has successfully recovered" It happens several times a day.

  Display driver sometimes can not be recovered and the system hangs and must be reset. Problem occur on the first day after five minutes of use (when it was not install anything without OS).

  Problem always occurs during normal operation with applications (MS office, firefox, etc.). It's completely random - there are no two the same situations - so when I look at youtube on full screen hd movies it crashes several times, but when I restart the OS and to play the same movie, it works properly.

  Causes of demand, this problem is called TDR (timeout detection and recovery).
  This application GPU reset when get failed for 2 sec. But in a register of Windows7 have entered controlled this application.

  Since I tried following solutions:
  -Updated BIOS.
  -System of resettlement;
  -Display driver update to version 197.16;
  -Check the temperature on the graphics card (when the problem occurs on the graphics card temperature does not exceed 47deg and 36deg processor);
  -Java Update (old version of can of Java causes some device problems);
  -Updated adobe (even Java);
  -Disable aero;
  -Updates of Windows 7;
  -Disable audio (realtek card);

  None of them works.

  The problem occurs during the games (i.ex. The Witcher). I can play 8 hours and nothing weird happens.
  I noticed that this problem occurs also during opening some applications or enter new tasks (when demand for energy is growing rapidly).

  I'm asking this is a driver problem or should I return the laptop to the service.
  I suspect that the problem may be large difference of voltage on the graphics card but I can not verified that.

  If anyone has experience this problem, I'd appreciate any help.

  Hello

  I had the same problem with my A500-1dn equipped GT 230 M, the message, the display driver stopped responding. I've updated the video card driver from nvidia.com 3 weeks ago and since that time, it ' s gone (hopefully forever).

  When I pressed the power button the camera and light led light power which ends of the AC adapter / light turned on and at the end a dry stop the laptop with the power and the orange light battery light on. Orange light battery led was off after 6-8 sec.

  I tried again and again and the same thing is happening

• Satellite A500 - how to connect to the TV?

  I would like to connect my Satellite A500-134 to a CRT TV. The output ports are D - SUB and HDMI. Ports of entry on my TV are RCA and SCART.
  Is it possible to watch movies on the TV?

  Thanks for your reply.

  Hello!

  If you want to connect this laptop to a TV, then use an adapter, e. g. D - SUB to RCA.
  Here's a picture I want to say: [D - SUB to RCA | http://www.gainbery.com/Product/Adaptor/vga%20to%20rca.jpg]

  On my Satellite L300 I use such a D - SUB to RCA adapter and it works without any problem. I am very satisfied with this solution.
