Satellite A550 - 14K: VT virtualization seems to be disabled

Hello

I recently bought an A500 - 14K and intend to install Linux (fact) and use Xen Virtualization.

But it seems that the Xen Virtualization is not feasible: Virtualization intel VT is not enabled.

I used the "securable.exe" to check that and it shows hardware virtualization as "locked Off".

The processor (P7350) supported this feature...

My questions:
-Anyone know this limitation?
is there a BIOS update which should fix this?
(I found everything...)
My BIOS version is Phoenix SecureCore Setup Utility V1.20
-Toshiba plans to release this update of the BIOS?

Any help / answer, you will enjoy

I don't think that P7350 processor supports VT it seems that Intel has recently updated the incorrect specifications on their Web site.

Good reading this post on the Intel forum: http://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/virtualization-software-development/topic/60686/page/2/

  • Satellite A500 - 14K does support SSD drive?

    Hello everyone,

    I'm considering buying an SSD to replace the old hard isk of my Satellite A500 - 14K with an SSD.
    I have a question: it's going to be that simple:
    -excerpt from my old hard drive
    -Insert the SSD 2.5 "
    -use the recovery DVD to reinstall vista and w7

    Is this laptop * tatooed * which would prevent this kind of replacement?

    a s SSD not as expensive as it was a few years ago but it is still expensive and I don't want to buy an SSD that I can't use!

    Thanks for your answers,

    Olivier

    Hello

    In most cases is not a big problem for the SSD drive works correctly.
    I made these updates on my old Toshiba laptop and it worked normally.

    Sometimes, it would be possible that an SSD would not be recognized in the BIOS. Such compatibility problem could be linked to the SSD drive firmware, but it happens in very rare circumstances

  • Satellite L505 - 14K - cannot read Windows key label CoA

    Hello.

    I have a Satellite L505 - 14K on which I need to reinstall Windows 7 Home Premium, but Windows key on the label is unreadable. Could I get a replacement for it?

    Also I can not read the HARD drive Windows code because it has been formatted before that I get this laptop in my hands...
    Maybe I can get either a phone number or e-mail address to a branch of Toshiba Polish, so I could communicate with them in this case?

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello

    Toshiba doesn't provide the keys to series for windows systems. On the label, you'll find the serial OEM key but this key cannot be used for activation of the system.
    Toshiba offers a clean recovery image that already contains the active Windows System.

    This recovery disk can be ordered here:

  • Satellite L855 - 14K - random switching between power settings

    My Satellite L855 - 14K is used when it is plugged. The screen changes every seconds bright for dim - at the same time the logo in the taskbar switches to [plugged, load] to [xx % remaining] and the plug is removed from the logo. I changed the setting to [high-power] power and changed the setting to never reduce or turn off the screen and the brightness of the screen has been set to the maximum. There is always an obvious difference and it makes me crazy.

    The computer running Windows 7 Ultimate and has a 750 GB SSD, 16 GB of RAM, and software and BIOS are up-to-date. Battery and power have been exchanged with good known and the power supply is interrupted.

    Someone at - it ideas?

    Fred

    According to the specifications of the laptop your machine was delivered with Win8 64 bit. Have you noticed the same behavior with preinstalled OS original?
    Since when did you notice this strange "switching" between the power supply and the battery?

    To be honest, it's not easy to say with certainty what the problem is here, but I think that it cannot be software related issue. I can hardly imagine that software gets a sort of 'signal' of electronic power supply.

    The warranty is still valid?

  • New Satellite L855 - 14K is very slow

    Hi people - advice on this would be appreciated...

    I bought a Satellite L855 - 14K about 2 weeks ago and I am very disappointed to see that sometimes it's extremely slow. For example, enter my password on the screen of welcome to the ZoneAlarm and Avast icons appear in the system tray takes 5 min 45 sec.

    Launch of Chrome takes 1 min 15 sec.

    It takes 40 seconds to launch task manager.

    I did the following to see if I could find the problem...

    Complete system with Avast scan - no threats found.

    Scan on startup with Avast - no infected files.

    Check drive C for errors - no errors detected.

    Optimization and defragmentation - finished.

    Full scan of Malwarebytes - no malicious items.

    SUPERAntiSpyware full scan - found 169 cookies, which I removed.

    Looked at Toshiba PC Health Monitor and everything looked ok.

    Run A tool of diagnosis of Toshiba and everything this past.

    I manually checked the updates of Windows and found 5 optional updates are available, which I installed.

    I disabled a number of items in the startup list - this is what is currently on...

  • I can't use FF to connect to simple Web pages. A lot of pages javascript seems to be disabled. have deleted the C:/p/moz FF x 86 files and reinstalled. No change.

    I am running Firefox 24.0 with Windows 7. I can't use Firefox to connect to simple Web pages. When I try to use all the features of sites Web which include cookies of the browser does.
    Many functions JavaScript seems to be disabled, that many parts of Web pages do not work. I went to: Tools > Options and checked all the settings for something suspicious, it looked good.

    This happened a few months at least. I tried to remove Firefox yesterday, by deleting this file: C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox and then ran the Mozilla Firefox
    Installer and it did reinstall correctly, but the problem persists.

    I only use Firefox for browsing the web. I also use other browsers with my install W7: I use Opera, IE and chrome, they all work great. The only extensions that I use are the Manager session 0.8.0.8 and selector Group tab 0.1. My Silverlight, Shockwave, Acrobat, and Flash Player are all up to date. I use the default theme. I use all services.

    I don't know what else to do. Help, please.

    Alright. I checked the stuff you guys recommended on the preferences and profiles. I didn't know a lot of this stuff, I do now, that's really useful, thanks!

    I checked the help > information on troubleshooting and I went there to reset Firefox. Which caused the browser working properly again, so I guess I was wrong earlier when I said that it "broke the program."

    I looked at the data I'm in sync. I started the browser synchronization again. This time I unchecked individual boxes, starting with preferences, then I synchronized and looked to see if the problem is back. It turns out that what he was doing was data "bookmarks".

    I guess that the only thing left to do is clear my sync data.

  • Satellite L755-11j - cooling fan seems to have stopped working

    Hello

    I have the model Satellite L755-11j and I'm really happy with it, strong, fast and reliable, I have only one problem: my cooling fan seems to have stopped working.

    I don't know if it's a hardware or software (BIOS is set to dynamic switch, and in the power management is set to 'Active') delivers, because I come from Croatia, diagnostic PC is incredibly overpriced here and I can replace the fan on my own.

    I want to just make sure I don't buy new cooling fan and my problem persists. Install speedfan and Toshiba PC health monitor only confirmed what I suspected, my laptop gets hot.

    I bought the external cooling fan to help keep the temperature of my laptop down, but with the coming of the summer that I really want to solve this problem.

    To be honest, it is not easy to help you with this. Is that cooling fan works automatically and there is not a special option where you can control. Only thing you can change is the cooling method option that you can find in the advanced power options > Toshiba power saver.

    Check it please what option is set to on. Of course on this virtual path, it is not easy to tell if the cooling fan is defective or not.
    It works or not? Can you notice hot air flow when you put your hand on the cooling grill placed on the left side of your laptop?

  • Satellite L650-1PF Display driver seems to be corrupted on the ftp site

    Hello

    I have a Satellite L650-1PF model and had to reinstall Win7 (64-bit version) because of a disk error.
    I tried to find the driver to correct display for this model and got the following file: * display - 20110110152358.zip *.
    It is an ATI, version 8.723.2, date of last modification: 01/14/11, see details below.

    After you download it, I tried to install it, but still received the following erros message: ' archive has unknown format or it is corrupted. "
    I tried unzip it with WinRAR and Total Commander as well on the 2 computers but without success, so for me it seems to be that the original on the OFFICIAL server file is really corrupted.
    Who can I report this and ask to update this file?

  • Satellite A200-13O (PSAE0E) image seems a bit distorted

    * Good day! *

    * Reference: PSAE0E-00Y019RU *.

    After some time of use I'm dealing with a large number of problems with the motherboard.
    Now, it's been fixed 2 or 3 times and something bad again.

    During the start-up and nothing loading appear on-screen until load and displays the Windows desktop.
    Photo looks a bit distorted (especially fonts and icons, its flattened) and the whole picture is very distorted.
    Have you tried reinstalling the drivers for the chipset and display drivers - nothing happened.
    It seems to me that something happened with the graphics card (Intel® GMA 950).

    So, I * 2 questions: *
    1 is anyone facing the same problems? How to solve it?
    2 maybe someone know the * motherboard number * of the exact model laptop to replace.

    * I appreciate any assistance. Thank you in advance to help.*
    P.S.: OS - Windows XP Pro SP2

    Have you noticed the same thing on the external monitor?
    If Yes, then a graphics chip can be affected in such a case, the whole motherboard has to be replaced because the GPU seems to be part of the motherboard.

    > 2. Maybe someone knows the reference number of the exact model of laptop motherboard to replace.
    In my opinion, the replacement of the motherboard is very costly affair usually, you have to spend 200-350 for a new or second hand and in my opinion motherboard it s too

    If this would be my computer, I sell this unit (ebay, etc) and offered to buy a new unit under warranty
    By the way: new motherboard can be ordered from local Toshiba ASP.

  • How to turn on Satellite A100-847 Intel virtualization technology?

    Is it possible to activate on A100-847 Intel virtualization technology?
    I try to run the VMWare Server to host the 64 bit OS, but it tells me that the VT CPU (T7200) capable but VT is not enabled.
    Is there a reason not to enable this feature of processor?
    It goes the same for the execute bit.

    AFAIK virtualization option, if it is available, you can find in the BIOS settings. I'm not 100% sure, but this option is not available by Satellite A100.

    As you know, it depends on CPU used in the unit (virtualization must be installed in the processor). My Qosmio has this option on the first page in the BIOS settings. I'm no expert of processor, but just to compare, my unit has Intel Core 2 Duo (Merom) processor T7400.

  • Satellite U300 - 14K (PSU30E) - what is the WLAN and other materials?

    What is the HW wlan in the machine? Machine pre-installed Vista (32 bit). The data sheet does not specify the HW very well.

    Device Manager says PRO/wireless 3945ABG Golan [HEIGHTS], but the download wlan driver has no driver for it. Ago realtec drivers atheros and intel, but the page intel does not list U300. Toshiba wlan page has the driver.

    There was also a network interface "isatap" (pilot: tunnel.sys).
    What is c? It did not work.

    How about the battery Bluetooth?
    The more pages of Bluetooth (http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/index.php?page=download) has some drivers. Is the new one (6.40.02) the right one?

    It also has Phoenix Trusted Core BIOS. Is it possible to go further in the BIOS settings, such as enabling/disabling HW?
    Now it is mainly the password and setting of start command interface.

    Hello

    You are right. Wireless laptop card is 3945ABG Intel Intel (Golan Heights) and the driver can be downloaded from http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/?page=downloads
    I can see version 12.2.0.11.3 is available for download.
    Driver free download driver for Vista and with exe files extract it to a folder. Look later check this file and go to the Vista32Drv folder.

    Drivers are there and install them manually with WLAN Properties > install new drivers.
    This method works?

    So what about BT? The latest version is the most recent and you can install it on your laptop satellite.

    What you want to do with the BIOS settings exactly? some certain hardware components can also be disabled in Device Manager.
