Satellite A500 is itself automatically in the middle of the night.

I had two portable A500 12 months running Windows 7, all the updates automatically. Among the computers portable himself on switches in the middle of the night and has the user logon screen indicating in the morning. It does when it is connected to power and on battery (flat performance in the process). It will do so with the lid closed and fully closed by Windows the day before evening.

Cannot find any settings in Windows that causes this to happen. The problem has probably occurred since the purchase, but I have that for some time my wife had not been properly shut down it! Laughing out loud

Any suggestions most welcome.

Hello

Have you checked if the deactivation of the wakeup in the BIOS option would solve this?
Select this check box.
Disable the wake on LAN and wake-up other options here.

Don't forget to save the changes to the BIOS ;)

  • Satellite L850 begins to automatically open the display panel

    Hello world!

    I have a problem with the Toshiba System Settings program.
    I have to start with a brief explanation:

    I have the version Polish win 8.1, up to 8 victory day.
    I can't find the option that might make my L850 Satellite to turn on automatically after that I raise its coverage.
    It's really annoying.

    In the control panel (I guess that's how it is called in English versions of windows) in the power management section, there is no option.
    There is only 'choose the result of closing the lid' and I got it "shut down the computer.
    I have also the system quick start option is enabled.
    In the BIOS 'Panel open - Power On' is DISABLED.

    I remember that there are similliar option in the Toshiba system settings and before returning the system I have solved this problem in this way. But there is a problem with access to the Toshiba system setting.

    When I try to run it, I get notification "Proba sprawdzenia has? a zako administrator? Czy? a TR? niepowodzeniem', which means "the test to check the administrator password ends with failure" and there is only the OK button.

    Does anyone know how to fix the parameters of the Toshiba system? Reinstallation does not work.

    Thanks for any idea and I'm sorry for my bad English. I also don't know if I have it written in the right place. Didn't know which forum to choose: Tools & Utilities Toshiba, as if it was a problem with the control panel or the forum associated with the model of my laptop.

    I assume you mean the Panel open - Power On"feature
    https://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/FAQ1A037V0000R01.htm

    You said that you have improved the Win8 system to Win 8.1.

    Well, after such system upgraded its necessary to install the Toshiba tools and utilities Win 8.1 version too because the Win 8 isn't fully compatible with Win 8.1 system software.

    I guess the Toshiba software was not updated and this is the reason why the Toshiba system settings program does not work correctly.

  • Satellite A500 - unable to connect to the WLan

    I'd like someone to help me.

    Have recently bought a satellite A500.
    I'm new in the world of laptops so I'm wrong.
    I connected to a router via a modem, the two netgear, the news.

    Had the two config for my network. Works well as long as ethernet is connected to the router of computer.

    My wireless icon on the front of the laptop is orange.
    If this should be green as the router?

    Pressing FN f8 it tell me wireless is connected.
    When I remove the ethernet cable it tell me to fix the problem, I need to plug in the ethernet cable.
    But I want to go wireless, I'm sure I'm missing something.

    Rang netgear but after that my router and it is not connected to wireless technology they could help me more.
    I use windows7.

    Thanks to anyone who can help me.

    > My wireless icon on the front of the laptop is orange.
    > Should it be green as the router?

    The WLan led can only be ON or OFF. If the light comes on (any color) then it means that the Wlan switch is on!

    It seems that the WiFi is enabled. In this case, you will need to properly configure the WiFi network.
    You can use the own WLan settings in Windows or a Wlan configuration tool like Intel ProSet utility.

    First need choose the right SSID (wireless network name), right of encryption (WEP, WPA, etc.) and password encryption.
    Please note that all of these parameters should be the same on the router WLan and WLan configuration software!

    Please check if the firewall does not affect the connection to the internet as well!

    PS: make sure you use the latest version of the WLan driver
    Here you can find the drivers:

  • Satellite A500/A505 - some problems after the recovery process

    I recently used the my Satellite A500, A505 recovery partition to get rid of a particularly persistent virus after running several antivirus programs, all to nothing does not.

    Now the virus seems to have disappeared, but the computer doesn't seem to be in the State it was in immediately after its opening.

    Firstly, the resolution is such that the taskbar, menu start and the desktop icons are all much larger than normal.

    Secondly, it seems to be missing some graphics files enables it to play my games that I put on it from my backup (in other words, it is showing the bottom of the game screen and play music and SFX without showing the character sprites or the menu options).

    Thirdly, my Fn + F6/F7 does not allow me to adjust the brightness of the screen of the computer, the only way that I know how to adjust the brightness of a Toshiba laptop.

    EC who if anything, could I hurt in all this?
    What might be able to do to solve these problems?
    I don't have no internet right now, but I have a USB and eternal patience, so I can use another computer and transfer everything what you suggest on mine.

    Nevertheless, I prefer solutions that do not like it, if possible.

    Surely appreciated!

    To be honest I never heard of this issue.
    In my opinion you should try to make the installation of recovery one more time to check if the same problem occurs again.

    You have created recovery disks?
    If Yes use recovery disks for recovery image installation.

  • Satellite A500 - icon Volume missing from the taskbar

    My volume icon disappeared from the taskbar (Satellite A500 / Windows 7). When I right click on properties to display the 'enable or disable system icons', the volume icon is there, but can not change off to on as the 'stop' is grayed out.

    Someone at - it indexes?

    Hello

    Maybe your card its isn't recognized properly. Have you checked for yellow exclamation marks Device Manager?
    Maybe the audio driver. You can find the latest version on the Toshiba site.

    Normally you can toggle the icon of volume if you in Control Panel > sounds and Audio devices.
    Check it!

    Hello

    I have connected my laptop Satellite A500/031 to my Grundig LCD TV, however the image shown on the TV screen has a pink background and color pink. The situation is clear with a good resolution, with the exception of the rose. Other devices that I have connected with the same HDMI cable in the same ports on the TV work OK, it's just the laptop.
    Hoping someone can help.

    Thank you

    Hey Buddy,

    Have you tried another HDMI cable? If this is not you should do this and choose a cable of high quality for a good image quality.

    Also try to reset display driver settings as Akuma has suggested. In addition, you can also update your display driver. The latest version, you can always get on the official website of Toshiba.

    Have you noticed this problem on another TV too?

    Kind regards
    Vivek

  • Satellite A500-1EE - where to find the 32-bit drivers for Windows 7?

    Welcome!

    I have the Satellite A500-1EE with the 64 bit version of Windows 7 and I need to install the 32-bit version of this system. Is this possible?

    Because I can not find the drivers for 32 bit.

    Hi tosipaw,

    Of course, it is possible and you can install what you want on your laptop, but I put t understand why you want to change to 64-bit to 32-bit OS.
    What are the reasons for that?

    Normally everything can be downloaded here:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    Your model belongs to the series of PSAR9E and so only drivers 64-bit available.

    If you are looking for all models A500 (without PSAR9E), you will find a large number of drivers Vista 32 bit. Maybe they work and it s worth a try! :)

    You must press the button on / off LED, which is part of the multimedia buttons of Toshiba. This button must be placed in the line where the other buttons such as play, pause, volume up and down are placed.

    So the light must be turned on. Then, you can set the backlight on the keyboard to Auto.
    Then the keyboard would hit any key.
    When you use FN + (keyboard sign (Z)), keyboard backlight turns off / Alternatively

  • 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.

  • Satellite A500-10F - HDD protection freezes the machine

    I did a clean install of Windows 7 Professional 64 bit on my Satelite A500-10F. It does seem however to all the drivers for it.

    There is a problem with the HARD drive protection. When she is supposed to trigger the whole machine freezes and I have to turn it off manually. Are there drivers available for this? If yes where can I find them? What else can I use until these become available? Hope there is a solution to the problem of easily available with windows 7...

    Hello

    Satellite A500-10F seems to belong to the series of PSAM3E and the Win 7 64 bit drivers are available on the page of the European driver Toshiba for this model of laptop.

    There is also a HDD Protection Utility v2.2.0.2 for Win 7 64 bit.
    I recommend to remove the old HDD Protection Utility, then clean OS using CCleaner for example and after new reboot you might reinstall the software again.

  • Satellite A500-15N: could not find the network adapter XP driver

    Hello world

    I just blown away vista on my new A500-15N and installed XP + SP2.
    The installation went well but I have some problems with some devices does not.

    They are: 3 x of the device Base, 1 x Ethernet, 1 x network controller controller system, 2 x PCI device, 1 x controller Bus SM, 1 unknown device x and 1 x video controller (VGA Compatible).

    I thought that I would be able to load network card drivers in order to allow access to the internet and then be able to download everything, either automatically, or manually. But I can't have any network card to load drivers!

    After loading some on the Toshiba web site, it makes no difference.
    I deleted and then to detect automatically the network card in Device Manager, but I can't find any drivers installed to run.

    Anyone know what I can do to fix this, or any other issue?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Do you need the card network LAN driver Wlan or both pilots?
    As far as I know the piece of LAN card is Realtek (1 Gbps) and the Intel 5100AGN WLAN.

    The WLan driver can be found here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/?page=downloads
    Intel PRO/Wireless 3945, 4965, 5100, 5300

    The driver LAN on the Realtek page:
    http://www.Realtek.com.tw/

    You can consult the page of the European driver Toshiba. Other series of laptops use the same Realtek LAN card and the driver should work too.

    Hi all

    I use Satelite A500-02J, but when I plug in external speakers, my internal speakers still work, how do I disable it?

    Hey,.

    Normally the internal speakers will be cut automatically if you connect headphones or external speakers. At least on my laptop it of the case

    Hmm I put t know what OS you have installed, but you should check the audio settings. Generally you can cut off the internal speakers if you have connected an external.

    Alternative, I recommend that you update the audio driver. You can find the latest version on the official website of Toshiba.
