• On Satellite A505-S6973 keyboard problems

  Goodday once again everyone,

  Can someone tell me if the built-in on my Satellite A505-S6973 keyboard has a backlight.
  I watch a lot of these new laptops and similar to mine, under the keyboard it is white and I don't know if that's how it's supposed to light. If so, can someone tell me.

  On the Toshiba U.S. support page I checked the specification for laptop computer and, of course, your laptop doesn t have this backlit keyboard.
  Just FYI: all illuminated keyboard have FN + Z option to turn on/off illumination.
  With other words symbol small keyboard will be on the Z key.

  This option, when the backlit keyboard is in the book is also available in Toshiba HWSetup tool.

• Satellite A505-S6973 - no sound from my laptop speakers

  I have an A505-S6973 and today I lost volume on my speakers. When I took my headphones, I hear, but without the headset is plugged in, I have no sound from my laptop speakers.

  I checked the Manager of devices for software problems but everything is erased, also, my volume is completely on.

  I tried a restore, but in vain, as I tried to uninstall and reinstall the extra value package but when you try to run the software after extraction it an error [0x8146045B] reports itself.

  This morning, everything seemed to work fine, the only thing I can think, I removed my places of sharing network of windows media.

  If that's the culprit can someone guide me on how I can re - install. In addition, value added package question, is there something that can be done, because the buttong enable/disable touchpad when press nothing happens, but if I use the function with F9 key it activates / deactivates.

  I really hope someone can help me, apparently, that it is an unlucky weekend for me.

• I have CS3 and the CS6 upgrade on my PC and want to load on my laptop for travel.  I can?

  I have CS3 and the CS6 upgrade on my PC and want to load on my laptop for travel.  I can?

  Yes, you are allowed to have applications installed on both machines.  The restriction being that the applications can be used at the same time on both machines.

  You don't need to install CS3 if you prefer do not.  You only need the serial number of this in order to get the active CS6.

• Satellite A505-S6973 - mute and eco utility buttons not respons

  Hello again everyone,

  I apologize for this but I have a question about my account record.

  I posted a question earlier where whenever I press the mute buttons and eco utility I get no answer (just a beep the button mute).

  I pressed the fn man icon and button support and I see it says I must register the button but I have no idea where I have to browse to find the application to fix to save it.

  I hope someone can help me, I searched through the forums and the last time I posted the question to the answer that I had did not work.

  If anyone can help with this question I would appreciate it very much.

  Hello

  If you want to use the ECO button, you must also install the ECO utility.
  In General, the multimedia keys on Toshiba are controlled by VAP (value added package).

  In your case, I recommend you to reinstall this VAP.

  > I pressed the fn man icon and button support and I see it says I must register the button but I have no idea where I have to browse to find the application to fix to save it.

  Usually, you have to choose the application (exe file) that you want to use under this button

• Satellite A505-S6017 (PSAT6U - 00L 001) - upgraded backlit keyboard?

  I have a new Satellite A505-S6017 who got water spilled on it, and now the keyboard is defective. Is it possible to upgrade to the backlit frames? MB connections will work and material can be configured?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  You are lucky, your laptop still works except keyboard after water spill. I work as an engineer at Hp computer service, and clients sometimes bring us computers completely dead after water, juice, coffee spill. Heh.

  Contact your Toshiba service center to solve the problem. but I do not know if the warranty covers the it. In Hp Centre of such situation is not covered. We do it just for the money.

  welcome them

• Games on Satellite A505-S6973

  Gods of colleagues toshiba, good night.

  I would like to know if it is possible to play games on my toshiba satellie A505-S6973. A colleague of mine has a dell studio xps and it can that disgusted me because if he can do it why not can I and we all know toshiba is better.

  Is there something I'm missing, I think it is the graphics card being an edge or is it just some games I can play.

  If so can someone please direct me as to the types of games I can run. Would be nice to play some call of duty and... For the moment I tried to run fifa 2011 and it starts good then begins to freeze during play. Had the phone since August of last year, so I don't know if it's just the BONE that gives a question, if yes, then I'll have to upgrade to 7 but I hope this isn't the case.

  Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

  I played COD2 and COD4 on the laptop models much older, so I think you can try to play the two of them on your laptop.

  Maybe you shouldn't play newer games, but I think that your Toshiba must manage with games that have maybe one or two years.
  You just need to test.

• Satellite L770D - 10 d - the processor upgrade

  I have SATELLITE L770D - 10 d with AMD A4 - 3300M and I would like to upgrade the processor to for example A8 - 3500M, since they have the same socket and TDP. I have the Toshiba support pages, but I couldn't find an answer.

  This is because toshiba usually does not support updates to their laptops and if they do its own risk

  the only way to know if it works is to screw open the laptop and see if the cpu is not soldered to the motherboard
  If that's your out of luck and the custom then able to switch on the cpu

  If not then u check if the motherboard support is the same as the new A8 - 3500 m

  If it's the same thing then u go to the step following and demand for the bios - mods.com if your BIOS has the required firmware for this cpu

  then IF that is okey then you will be able to replace the cpu

  remind u this will require you to disassemble almost all computer laptop and high risk damage to your product if it is not done right
  so, if you don't have any COMPUTER knowledge id suggest u not not for this

  This time did so with L500-1ZP, which came with an i3 330 m and upgraded to an i7 620 m still solid

• Satellite A100 - memory and hard drive upgrade

  Hi guys,.

  I have a Satellite A100-158 of the model code PSAA9E-01700VPT. It came with a 80 GB HDD at 5400 RPM S.M.A.R.T. and 1 GB of RAM DDR2 (533 MHz).

  I think that my computer slows to a crawl because maybe I thought the hard drive being old and low memory for recent programs and therefore upgrade the hard drive and memory.

  A Western Digital Scorpio Black 320 GB 7200 RPM 16 MB 2.5 inch would fit? According to them, it's running at 7200 RPM with the energy consumption of a drive 5400 RPM (marketing simply bad maybe).

  And a memory card Kingston 2 GB DDR2 800 MHz working? It has a higher frequency than my current ram, but then I guess he can withdraw maximum permitted by the motherboard? I guess that's 533 Mhz as my module memory factory. I can also buy a module 2 GB of the same manufacturer exact DDR 2 as well but 667 MHz instead... still higher than my current memory module.

  Thanks much for the tips... I hope that this will bring my A100 more in standards without going to a new laptop :)

  Hello

  Generally, a HARD drive with more RPM isn't a problem, but he needs a little more power and product more heat, but it should work.
  It s based on your application that you are running. For normal use, 5400 RPM should be ok.

  The modules of RAM with higher specifications are also no problem because it s downgrade compatible for lower speed (533 MHz).
  Kingston is always recommendable, I've never had a problem with these modules. :)

• Satellite P300-156 - and the button Return give the same values

  Hello

  I have a satellite P300-156, and it has a numeric keypad.
  I have problems because the Enter key and the Return key give the same values. I believe that it is incorrect.
  Can anyone help.

  Key on the numeric keypad should give an input it does.
  the Enter key on the main keyboard should give a carriage return value, but it gives an input value.

  Usually this does not cause a problem, but with software like photo shop that makes the distinction between a carriage return and a hard fall it does not work.

  Can someone help me please

  Thank you

  Hello

  To my eyes the entry and return keys are the same keys that provides the same functionality.
  I really put t know why you believe that there is something not right

  By the way; Check if you are using the latest version of the BIOS!

• Satellite L750 charging and the question of the random stop

  Hi all

  Recently I had problems with my laptop Satellite load.

  The laptop is running Win7 64 bit and is a Satellite L750 PSK2YA - 0LN028

  Now the problem is not that his load not but that he chooses to charge and no fees when he wants to. With the laptop plugged into current alternative to a real charger Toshiba (3.96 tested A 19.48V) the laptop charge for a minute or so normally with the animated icon (moving) in the set by saying "plugged in, load. Then all of a sudden the animation stops in the status bar, but it still says "plugged in, charging" 2 lights on the front of the laptop flashes orange simultaniusly (power and battery NOT AC led) and the computer will decide to drain itself of the battery, then stop without warning (with connected AC).

  This will happen under simple highload AND webbrowsing. My dough said Toshiba PC health integrated program is 'good' and that CPU Temp is not more 70% and the fan works as it should. When I remove and reconnect the AC adapter it will stop blinking and start to load for a minute and then start all over again.

  I tried to remove and reinstall the battery Module controller via Device Manager and Reset BIOS by disconnecting all power and hold for 30 seconds, these two methods do not fix my problem.

  The computer still works on AC if the battery is removed and the only devices I plugged in a USB mouse that is NOT plugged into the slot of the USB3.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated or if someone knows what that flashing lights twin mean on a table of errors, or something (because I can't find the online error codes). It's my first laptop and I bought this one thinking that I could do most of my stuff a desk would be, but it's just been a nightmare...

  Thanks in advance, if you need more info let me know.

  Please do so in order to clarify the issue.

  I recommend you test another, a good pile of work.
  Not quite sure if he s really make a battery but in all cases of problems of load, the battery should be checked as well as another adapter.
