  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.

  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 A500/026 No connection using LAN

  My Toshiba Satellite A500/026 is about a month and today I finally had the time to try to connect to the Internet. However, to plug the ethernet cable from my modem to the laptop, there is no Internet connection.

  I tried to connect the same cable on my Satellite Pro A300 and all right. If I'm missing something on my A500?

  Hello

  Are you sure that the internet connection is not blocked by a firewall or other security that is installed on your system software?
  Check it!

  In addition, you must check if the network card is working properly.
  The LAN driver must be installed and you should not see any yellow exclamation in device-> network cards Manager.

• 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 A500-1pj - no image on LCD TV via HDMI

  Hello world

  got a new Satellite A500-1pj and tried to connect it via HDMI with my Toshiba LCD TV 42XV635. Incredible, but it does not work.

  What is happening is that the TV detects the laptop and the screen goes black but no office or something else appears. If I go to extended or clone I got it on the screen of the laptop, but not yet on the TV. Already tried three different cables, disabled/enabled almost every setting on TV, I tried new drivers, different resolutions,...

  The only thing that works is to reduce the resolution to 1024 x 768, but even here the image is not that good (blue pixels across everything on dvd). So far, no response from the Toshiba support. Anyone here who has an idea?

  Thank you!

  Hi abra_xas,

  It s interesting but I can't find any information on your operating system, but it would be interesting to know because I m sure that it s just a software or driver problem. I also have Satellite A500 and often connect to my LCD TV, but I never had any problems with it.

  Usually if you connect two devices, use the FN + F5 key combination to switch between monitors.

  Is also important that you use a high quality HDMI cable and connect both devices to first before you switch them on (TV should be switched on first and select the right channel).

• Satellite A500 - 15 M: unable to connect to the TV with HDMI

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A500 - 15M. I recently tried to connect to my TV so I could watch certain shows online on my Hannspree Xv HD ready TV.
  The HDMI out does any record on the TV - the TV displays a message "not supported" and remains off (as if there is no signal) - display settings on the PC it does not recognize the TV... actually it [Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel] indicates that the TV/monitor settings are not supported.

  But I can connect via the VGA output - although I have to delete the display settings to 1024 x 768 to show on TV. In addition the display on the TV then is mainly pink and red, even if my pc display peak is most often blue. -start of the Toshiba screen displays on the TV, without any problems and one or twice the login screen was displayed too much, but then sometimes it isn't...
  I know that's not the VGA cable as I can connect to the TV with it on netbook advent my wife without any problem.
  Are there drivers, I need to update / download? Or I need to change the settings?
  How can I get my screen on my TV?

  Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

  Hello

  First, you must connect the two machines (laptop and TV via HDMI) when the two devices are turned off. After turn on the TV and the laptop.

  You must choose the HDMI on TV channel and should then use the FN + F5 key combination to switch the video output to the TV.

  If this does not help, try updating the graphics card driver.
  It seems that your laptop supports the Intel graphics chip. Therefore, you can see the Intel page for new drivers.

• Satellite A500 - modem broadband 3G does not connect to internet

  Hello

  Can someone please help
  I am from Ireland and have a modem broadband three where you plug in the USB, Broadband Mobile it is called.

  I downloaded the software ok but I can not connect to the internet, always says failed to connect, the modem worked well on another laptop.

  I am using windows 7 and my laptop is a Toshiba Satellite A500.

  Three told me to contact Toshiba as it is a problem with the laptop... What would be this,

  Be greatfull for help...

  Nigel

  Hello

  You said that the modem worked fine in another laptop. But the other laptop uses the Windows 7 operating system?

  I doubt s a cell phone number since you are using an external modem has nothing to do with the laptop.
  Maybe you have installed some kind of security software (firewall, etc.) which prevents the software of modem connection of the ISP (internet service provider).

  Please check the firewall settings!

• Satellite A500 - 1 GB - copy dialog crashes on the eSATA connection

  Hello

  I have trouble when using my Samsung storyboard (1.5 TB, eSata/USB 2.0) with the Satellite A500 - 1 GB (Windows 7 64-bit):

  (a) when you use the connector eSata (preferred):
  The drive is recognized by the system, and I can read the directory information. But I cannot copy or play the disc. The copy dialog box freezes quickly and cannot be terminated easily.

  (b) when you use the USB connector:
  It is also recognized by the system, but copy and read operations take ages - I have tried to make a backup of the system, but cancelled after 5 hours.

  The drive works fine with another PC (also Windows 7 x 64), so the drive itself should be ok.

  I've updated satellite drivers today (BIOS, chipset and responsible storage), but this did not improve the situation at all.

  The question is probably, due to the 150 versus Protocol SATA 300 SATA? A500 - 1 GB does support SATA 300 (SATA 2) or just SATA 150 (1 SATA)? Is there a specific SATA driver (Intel?) I might give a try? Where could I check who is currently SATA-used protocol?

  Or do you have other clues on how I could solve this problem?

  Best regards
  Waschlappen

  Hello

  Theoretically, your external hard drive eSATA connection could be defective so have you tested the USB connection only on your other PC or eSATA too?
  In addition, you should test another cable, I had a USB cable, did the same problem and after Exchange of cable, everything was ok.

  There is no special driver for it on the eSATA connection. I think that it s part of the chipset driver for reinstall the chipset driver could also be helpful.

• Satellite A500/031 to TV via the HDMI screen shows connection pink

  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
  EVVY

  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?

• Satellite A500 - 03P: unable to connect to the WLan using Win 7 + event message

  Hi all

  I recently bought the Satellite A500 with the offer included Windows7 while he was available late October 09.

  So I had the Toshibe DVD for the upgrade and followed the steps and Visa home premium upgrade to Windows 7. Now I have two questions.

  (1) I get a system event Notification after start, talk to me about the system event log. The full message is below.

  Unable to connect to a windows service
  Windows could not connect to the System Event Notification service. This problem prevents limited users to logon to the system. As an administrator, you can view the system event log to see why the service failed

  (2) I was able to use this laptop for the internet before the upgrade, both via a USB wireless drive as well to the office via a DSL modem.
  Now I can't access the internet after the upgarde of Windows 7!

  For example the Optus dial-up box pop up appears commandeLorsque I click on 'connect', it does not connect.

  Can anyone help please?

  Thank you
  C I

  Hey Buddy,

  (1) did you check the Configuration of the Service for this service? The Boot System Event Notification Service type must always be set to automatic. This service is absolutely necessary for Windows and shouldn't t be disabled or set to manual startup type.
  Check it!

  (2) to be honest I never heard on the internet BEFORE, but normally, it should also be possible to access the Internet with Windows 7.
  Make sure that the WLAN or LAN card is installed properly and check the TCP/IP settings. If you are missing some driver you can get on the page of Toshiba.

• Satellite A500 - battery light flashes when connected to the power supply

  Win 7 Satellite A500 PSAM3A-03P00E.

  Battery light flashes when connected to the power supply (intermittent fault), when I disconnect the sector and reconnect the flashing stops and battery (high capacity) continues to receive.

  Also, when battery light blinks the keyboard backlight stays on when it should white and if the backlight is turned off and the battery light starts to blink the keyboard backlight turns on, all other functions seem to work well.

  Charges of battery and the wedges load properly (when the battery flashes).

  Hello

  Have you noticed this problem since the first day of purchase?
  Theoretically, it could be possible that your battery begins to malfunction
  On the other hand, an electrical problem could also be possible

  However, try this:
  Remove the battery and the AC adapter. Then press and hold button power 30 sec long.
  Then insert the battery and plug AC adapter still does that help?

  By the way: this is the BIOS updated? If this isn't the case, perform an update.

• Satellite A500-19U - games crashes after 3 Min then only connected to the power adapter

  Heys guys. I got my new Satellite A500-19U and install it on some games like COD4, Batman, Assasin Creed and many

  All of these games crashes & freezes after 3-5 Min & gimmea the screen black or white and everything happens while pluging adapter to recharge. When you use the battery, it crashes too, but it takes a long time. Some time, he said (the display driver not responding) & sometimes the screen black or white. The only way to recover the laptop is ALT + CTRL + DELETE and kill the game processes.

  The only one that works such fine bit is Battlefield Bad Company 2. Then I change the DirectX (setting.ini) of car in DirectX9.

  SP please any help on this matter. I think it's a video driver or a Windows 7 problem. And the specifications are:

  Processor: Inter Core 2 Due P7450 2.13 GHz
  RAM: 4 GB DDR3
  VGA: Nvidia Geforce G210M [with the driver from Toshiba Site]
  OS: Windows 7 64-bit

  SRY 4 my English: $

  Hi Storm2005,

  A 64-bit Windows 7 preinstalled on this notebook or install it yourself?

  In my opinion, you should check the cooling options in Windows power management. Make sure that it s set for maximum Performance. This means that your laptop will be cooled as much as possible.

  I put t know how long you have this laptop already but maybe that cleaning is also an option.

• Satellite A500 - switch WLAN and the FN keys does not turn the wireless

  I have currently problems try to activate the connection Wireless on my laptop. My laptop model is a satellite A500 PSAR9A O2J001. My laptop's physical wireless switch does not work and neither my Fn keys don't work (none of my function keys work not at all). It was awhile I saw an orange light next to my mobile switch indicating it was on, but one day, it's just off. Since then, I was not able to reactivate it after a lot of searching on Google, and this place is my last resort after doing so many things.

  Any help or comments would be appreciated, I am very desperate to solve this problem for studies.

  Your description is OK but rather general isn't easy to say with certainty what the problem is here.
  Is the card properly installed wireless (Device Manager)?
  FN keys work in general? You can use other keys FN + Fx? You see flash cards when you press the FN key? If so what options you see when you use FN + F8 (WLAN I think)?

  When you move position WLAN communication works and use the FN + F8 to what exactly happens?

• Satellite A500 - slower with videos on Windows 7

  Hi, I desperately need advice, I am 78 years old and going into the wall.

  My Satellite A500 / 03P was bought with preinstalled Vista and worked fine. My particular interest is the functioning and the creation of video clips from training for other seniors, like video purchased has worked, stutter free. I took the offer to upgrade to Windows 7 and bought the upgrade, things went quickly downhill since. Installing Windows 7 became crazy during the installation, I have to take the computer to a maintenance shop. He was returned with Windows 7 installed, but has been considerably slower with videos run from the hard drive stuttering, worse still, my connection Internet ADSL2 running about 1.25 m bits per second.

  After a while I got to service man and $ 200 later was provided with a dual boot hard drive, Windows 7 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 7. The system is practically unusable for video. I downloaded and installed all the 32 and 64-bit drivers provided by Toshiba but had to give up the 64-bit completely as unusable. I tried to install another copy of Vista Ultimate, bought for my old desktop PC, but could not get Internet to work, either directly or via the WIFI on the laptop.

  I tried to run the Toshiba on the 32-bit Windows 7, but the laptop is too slow, that even my email creeps to e-mail readere. Any advice would be most appreciated that my pension will not bear the costs of local peoples. Should I buy the Toshiba original disks and return to 'ex factory Vistor State' or what.

  Concerning
  LeslieB

  Hi Leslie,.

  I m really wondering why your A500 has so many problems with Windows 7. From my own experience I can say it s really great and better than Vista OS. I use 1.5 years now and everything is working a lot on it.

  In any case, did you check if all devices are properly installed in Device Manager and if there is no yellow exclamation?
  When you watch videos, have you selected the power profile high performance in Windows?

  > Should I buy the Toshiba original disks and return to 'ex factory Vistor State' or what.
  That would be an option, Yes.
  You don t have the Toshiba Recovery disk? If this isn't the case, you can get it from a provider of service authorized in your country.
