• Satellite A500 Win8 has encountered a problem during installation

  Hello
  Ive got a Satellite A500 and get at the end of the installation and its reversal to say he had a problem. Do you need to do something special?

  I looked on the site to support Toshiba win 8 and it does not show the Satellite A500 in one of the lists of supported or not supported for Win8 so because you did it gave me some hope.

  See you soon

  Hello

  Here you can find information on models of laptops that will make the Win 8 Toshiba Upgrade Wizard:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB2A03EU0000R01.htm

  Those notebooks of Win 7 will get Win 8 drivers.
  If your laptop is not mentioned in this list, then you will get no win 8 drivers.

  Of course, you can always install the 8 to win but you need find drivers manually in your own hand.

  Also check * Windows 8 Upgrade Guide *.

• Satellite A500-1HK hangs on StarCraft 2

  Hello

  I bought Satellite A500-1HK just two days ago and almost immediately install StarCraft 2 :)
  (This game was one of the reasons for me to buy this laptop and I decided that instead of a Sony Vaio one.)

  The first time, I was surprised (I had Satellite A200 - 1 M 5 before, and the comparison was really interesting.) But, unfortunately, a few seconds after I start playing the computer freezes, the image was distorted on the rectangles, and I couldn't do anything, no mouse, no keyboard. Then, continuously press the power button to turn off. After that nothing has changed - activated the PhysX, vertical sync, but nothing helped. Even when I look at the reruns - it freezes just after a few seconds, and at every reboot, or I have to force it to stop.

  And a few minutes ago is the same thing I downloaded files via FTP, no games or 3D graphics. And which really scared me :(

  I think the problem with the driver for the graphics card, but I'm not very good material. So, please, help me.

  Thanks in advance :)

  Hi pesho_h_k,

  I think that you simply update the display driver or there is an update (patch) for StarCraft 2 I n t know because I n t have this game and laptop.

  Simply visit the Web from Toshiba:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads

  Before installing newer display driver, remove the old version and restart the computer. After that, you can install the new display driver.

  In addition if you play games, it is also important that you use the latest version of DirectX.

• Satellite A500-1HK: some problems with ECO Utility, touchpad, GPU

  Hi all!

  I am facing some problems with my laptop A500-1HK AND I would like to have your opinion!

  last month, the eco Utility application cannot be activated from the special keyboard of the botton at the bottom of the keyboard, although Ihear special sound because its touch botton (so it works fine). I can activate only in the start menu and then the botton in the keyboard touch would become green.

  At the top of the touchpad (mouse), there is a botton that enable / disable the touchpad. It works again.

  A few times when I'm working, the screen turns black and then after 5-7 seconds, that it becomes normal with a message that nvidia GeForce GT 330Μ had stop working but now works well! (is it something serious?)

  On the taskbar, there is an icon with a yellow exclamation point indicating the function that intel RST does not work. What is c?

  Keep in mind I have install all the drivers to the latest version, but nothing has changed! I have windows 7 64 bit GR

  Thanks in advance!

  Go to-> programs and features Control Panel
  Here are looking for ECO Utility and uninstall this software and restart the laptop

  Then visit the Toshiba UE driver page and look for the ECO utility.
  Download the software and reinstall it.

  > A few times when I'm working, the screen turns black and then after 5-7 seconds, it becomes normal with a message that nvidia GeForce GT 330? a work stoppage, but now works fine! (is it something serious?)

  The same as the ECO utility. Uninstall the screen / graphic card driver
  Download the latest driver from the Toshiba page and install it

  > To the task bar, there is an icon with a yellow exclamation point indicating the function that intel RST does not work. What is c?

  TSRI means Intel Rapid Storage Manager. It contains the SATA driver for SATA HDD controller.
  In case this does not work, reinstall it again.

• Satellite A500-1E4 (PSAR9E) - noisy fan stops is never (BIOS version 1.60)

  Hello from the Czech Republic, I have also problem with noisy fan on my new Satellite A500-1E4 (PSAR9E) (i430M, GT330M) on 64-bit Windows 7 over Office Standard - see http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=46719&start=165&tstart=0.

  Today I have updated the bios to 1.60 (from 1.20) and there has been no change. When the laptop powered to the top of the adapter in all modes the fan is running at 60-70% (sometimes at 90% - my office is perhaps quieter :-(). What laptop power battery in normal fashion fan and high performance race to 60-70% (loud sound) and in the economy mode to 80% (very noisy). It's crazy that in economic mode produce more noise than mode high performance. The CPU temperature is cca. 37-43 C, GPU 48-57. Fans of course never stops and all it's standart office. No intensive work or games. I can't imagine in games.

  Can someone help me please, I'm really helpless. Or this fixes only bios 1.30 and next version not?

  Hey Buddy,

  I think that it of really difficult to say why this happens, but in my opinion you should provide more details about your operating system and drivers.
  Are you running the Toshiba factory settings or you have installed another OS?
  Fan sometimes high activity is due to a different display driver. Have you installed the latest display driver form Toshiba (NOT nvidia)?

  Old BIOS versions, you can get an authorized service provider

• Satellite A500 - 17 X - RAM upgrade problems

  Hello. I hope someone can help me with this one because it's driving crazy me!

  I recently bought a Satellite A500 17 X from a friend at work. As it has the standard 4 GB, I pulled out and 2x4gb bought to upgrade. The problem here is that the laptop is simply not start with any other RAM sticks in place. I spent over £50 and took the first set back as I thought he had a problem with them.

  The specifications of the sticks:

  PNY 4 GB
  DDR3 8500
  1066 MHz

  If someone can help me here, I would be very grateful!

  Thank you.

  When you want to upgrade RM, it is important to use 100% compatible and also produces high quality.
  I ve checked specification and your laptop can be upgraded up to 8 GB of RAM. Compatible RAM of 4 GB modules have the PA3677U-1M4G part number.

  Order these Rams announced everything will be OK.

  By the way: best Rams offer Kingston so you can also check which modules you can buy for your laptop. Check it here.

• Satellite A500-1F4 and frequency memory problem

  Win7 gives SAMSUNG r.620 DDR2-800 * 6.2 POINT *.
  But it gives my laptops memory * only 5.9* which is DDR3

  So, I looked at the speed of RAM with everest program and get shocked... It says my ram turn frequency to * 73 mhz * (speed DDR). Laughing out loud...
  Update the BIOS to the latest version, but nothing has changed.

  This is ridiculous. What it means?

  I took the screenshot of everest, you can check it out here:

  http://www.zshare.NET/image/73963776a9b989a5/

  And your opinion is that Everest is an application more suitable for this kind of thing?
  You have the SAMSUNG r.620 DDR2-800 with your laptop?

  Strange thing is that all Satellite A500-1F4 I found were shipped with the DDR3 1066 MHz modules. How can you have DDR2 inside?

• Satellite A500: display driver & CD burning problem

  I have problems with the Nvidia Windows Kernel Mode Driver Version 187.98. I went back to Harvey Norman where I bought it and they said to update the driver. I got the update and it still happens. Sometimes more than 6 times within a few hours.

  Now I have problems burning photos on a disc.

  I really want to have this computer at the door and I have had for 3 months and have had nothing else into trouble with him.
  All Satellite A500 work like that

  > All Satellite A500 work like that
  I don t think so

  You must use the Toshiba graphics card driver in most cases that these drivers are pre-tested and should work correctly. BIOS should be also updated!

  > Now, I have a burning problem of the photos on a disc.
  You should check if the new CD/DVD firmware is available for your CD/DVD drive.
  You should look on the European driver Toshiba page. In addition to information, you will get a few details on the firmware available.

  If there is no firmware available, then you should test different CD and DVD from different manufacturers

• Satellite L500 - stop and a fan problem

  Hello.

  A few months my Toshiba Satellite L500-1 stops frequently due to overheating, which occurs when the intensive use of the laptop (for games, photomanipulation etc..). However, I don't know what I can do about it. I won't open my laptop, unless I am told to open my laptop computer to perform a specific task.

  Today, my cell phone off again. However, when I turn back I noticed that something happened with my fan. At this point, my laptop doesn't overheat not quickly as usual. Instead of 90 + % fanspeed there around 58-60% (depending on the Toshiba PC Health Monitor). However, I noticed that something happened with my fan. After that I noticed that the fan will sometimes be a trigger, that sounds once every 10 minutes when the laptop is under heavy use.

  What should I do now? It worries me, I'd be worried about it? Perhaps another user from Toshiba with a similar problem can give me support. I'd be happy.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what may be the problem.
  When you use your laptop do you use desktop space?
  Do you use it with power supply?

  What power profile do you use when laptop stops?
  Have you tried changing the settings of food or something else?

  Before you start using it intensively have you tried to terminate background processes, disconnect the devices, just to see if that will help?

• Satellite A500-1GL - card wireless adapter problem

  Hi all

  I had a problem with the card wireless on my laptop for months and have no idea how solve more.

  Basically, the wireless card seems to go through phases does not turn on. One day I can boot up my laptop and it works fine, then the next day it won't work. The wireless button on the front of the laptop is turned on but don't turn on the red light.

  In the past, I've managed to get over this by several reboots the laptop (until he decides to work) or reinstall flash, wireless etc. drivers card drivers. However, none of these things today seem to be making a difference.

  The worst, it's that there is no continuity with when it does not work and how it is fixed (sometimes reboot once fixes it, other times reinstall drivers fix it and so on).

  For this reason, I assumed that this may mean that there is some sort of hardware failure? But if I run the laptop in safe mode, the wireless still works without any problem.

  Someone has an idea what is happening?

  Any help would be appreciated,

  Liam

  Hello

  First of all I would like to know what system you are using and if you have tried to recover the laptop to factory settings in the past.

  The point is that these issues are mostly related software and could be solved by resetting the system.

  However, I think you know that the wireless network card can be turned on and off using the FN + F8 key combination.
  Have you tried this combination in the past?

  Second, you must check the WLan card status in Device Manager.
  The point is that problems of card driver WLan, Wlan card doesn't would be not listed correctly in Device Manager. So this should be the next step.

  Where the Wlan card is listed correctly, I assume that the driver is installed and working properly.

• Satellite L300-1 has 3 - recovery problem

  Hello

  I need help to use system restore.

  I have a Toshiba L300 1 to 3 wines. Vista.

  The system has fallen, lack of recovery tile. You plan repair through F8 initially went, everything was going according to the instructions, and all of a sudden, the computer shuts off after a few seconds to implement market and nothing.

  Nothing works, no, F8, 0 "and others.

  There is only F2 and F12. After pressing a button is only a signal and nothing works.
  Is there a chance to revive it, or is it better to give somewhere on the site?

  First of all: this is the English language community - please post in English!

  Now a few questions:
  Hard drive recognized by the BIOS (BIOS first page)?
  If this is not the case, the HARD drive is dead and you need to replace the HARD drive.
  After that, you will need to use the Toshiba Recovery disk to reinstall the system.

  If you n t have this disk, you will need to use the Microsoft Windows CD to install the operating system.
  The necessary drivers are available on site pilot Toshiba.

  By the way: these issues have been posted several times in this forum. Go into the nets of singles and read the recommendations.
