Satellite B717 C850 - activation Windows 10

Hello world

I have a satellite B717 C850... I bought with windows 8 preinstalled top...
I have upgraded to Windows 10 and everything was fine until 3 weeks when I started having problems with so many sudden blue screens with different errors. I have tried so many solutions including restore windows to an earlier restore point, but nothing helps... until 2 days ago when I decided to clean the hard drives, but unfortunately I lost everything... I used my other laptop with windows 10 to download a version of win 10 on a USB key and installed on the laptop to format...

Now I have an inactive Windows 10. When Microsoft asked for a solution they told me to contact TOSHIBA to obtain the key of windows 8 that has been installed on the laptop... help please...

until 2 days ago when I decided to clean the hard drives, but unfortunately I lost everything... I used my other laptop with windows 10 to download a version of win 10 on a USB key and installed on the laptop to format...

Toshiba does not provide the serial key to activate the systems.

Your laptop has been pre-installed with Windows 8, where the serial key has already been included.
I assume that you create the recovery media that would allow you to recover the laptop back to factory settings?

Well, in this case you can order recovery disc or USB of Arvato Services key and this would allow you to recover the OS of Windows 8, which is activated.

After that, you might go once again to Win 10.

    Hello everyone

    I received an update yesterday from Microsoft update after the update has been successfully installed, I noticed that my PC account did not work and he says I need to activate windows!

    My windows 8 has already been activated out of the box also 8.1 has been activated without problems... I tried my old CD key that it came with the laptop, wristwatch that my product key is a product key by default and cannot cannot be used for activation!

    Please I need help

    I have no idea why the activation of your system should be repeated, even though the Win 8 and 8.1 Win have been activated correctly in the past.

    I think there must be a bug in the system. However, I recommend you to check using Microsoft Get with the activation errors page and check the recommended workaround solutions.
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/activation-errors
    I hope that you would be able to fix it without recovering the system.

    The fact is that the preinstalled is already activated (or it automatically activates the connection to the internet for the first time) and Toshiba does not provide the serial key to activate the system.

    I recommend checking this recovery of Windows 8 and documentation of repair.

    [Windows 8 recovery & repair | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2A03ES0000R01.htm]

    There are different ways to repair or recover the system Windows 8.

    In my opinion for the moment 1rs you should try the "automatic repair" option which helps you to scans your files and settings, and if it detects a problem with any of them, it takes corrective action. No additional input is required.

    In addition, he told me to check here (https://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/generic/windows8_1-upgrade-stepbystep/) before starting the process. Step # 7 says "don't forget your Windows password. You may need to enter after update. »

    Now, I'm back to Win 8.

    Is there a way to learn my activation key before installation of w8.1?

    No, the preinstalled Windows 8 Toshiba is already activated and during the upgrade to 8.1 Win will not ask you to enter the serial key...

    As much as I know there is no certain special option to turn on the num lock and you can not define is as default to be always enabled. Extra keypad on the keyboard is designed for use with different applications such as Office Excel and allow you an entry comfortable numbers in some document.

    Hello world

    I'm unable to connect a Toshiba Satellite Pro C850-15 q Part No.: PSKC9E-01JOOHEN to a projector, laptop computer does not wish to duplicate the screen for the projector.

    The laptop worked without any problem with a spotlight for months, but its only today that it is unable to connect to a projector via a VGA cable.

    So far, I have tried to use the laptop on different different projectors, but will not work on any.
    I have used different VGA cables, uninstalled the driver display and then reinstalled the latest driver, updated chipset and bios but nothing seems to work.

    Physically, the VGA port seems fine, I tried to project using FN + F4 and the windows key + P, the two options do not work. I have also a right-click on the desktop, properties, all the eyes of correct parameters, also sought to graphics options right click again this sounds all very well.

    The laptop is running windows 7 32 bit.

    Suggestions as to what to try next?

    Thank you
    Darren.

    What exactly happens when you press Fn + F4 (or only F4)?
    Other function keys work correctly?

    The laptop seems to also support the exit HDMI port.
    Are you able to connect the laptop to an external monitor and the output video using the F4 function key?

    It seems that this opinion is not from Microsoft staff, but some users of the forum.
    You should know that the drivers of keyboard (developed by Microsoft) are still part of the Windows System. Any Windows OS you use, the keyboard driver would be always installed as part of the OS. This means that the drivers of special keyboard DON T exist but system uses own driver...

    You can check the functionality of the keyboard in USB external keyboard.
    If external keyboard works properly, the internal keyboard is malfunctioning and must be replaced.

    If the external keyboard does not work properly too, then I recommend you to recover the laptop using Toshiba HDD recovery. Otherwise, there could be question of motherboard (keyboard controller).

  • Satellite Pro C850 - strange problem with LAN connection

    Hello world

    I just signed up on this forum because I hope you guys can help me with a really strange problem.

    I recently bought a Satellite Pro C850-1MX
    It came with Win8, but given that I don't really like Win8, I bought an additional Windows 7 Pro (64 bit) license and installed on the laptop.

    The problem I describe, also arrived on 8 to win, which makes it even more strange.

    As soon as I connect a cable to the RJ-45 port, Windows tells me, that the LAN connection is not connected.
    As soon as I unplug the cable, Windows starts looking for a network and actually found one!

    So, the only way to connect to my LAN cable is... I have activate the LAN connection, wait that it detects a network (without the cable connected!) and meanwhile to connect the cable to the network port.
    Now... If I disconnect the cable once again, Windows still shows its connected.

    I must say, that I am a Director of professional network for more than 10 years now, so I should know my systems, but this never happened to me before. Event log shows nothing, re-installing drivers did nothing either. IM quite confused here and I hope you guys can help me.

    Thanks for reading, and let me know if you need any additional info!

    Greetings from the Germany,
    Sandro

    Hello Sandro,

    To be honest I confused m.

    I would try to start talking about the drivers installed, since you changed the system for Win 7.
    All the network devices, such as card WLan and LAN card are properly recognized in Device Manager?

    As I m not wrong not the laptop was equipped with a network card Realtek-8111F (1000BASE-T/100Base-TX/10Base-T) and WLan RTL8723AE Realtek b/g/n card.
    If both should appear in the device properly Manager if you have installed the drivers correctly.

    2nd question:
    You said:
    > As soon as I unplug the cable, Windows starts looking for a network and actually found one!
    Are you sure that you speak of LAN and WLAN?
    For me it made no further since. If the network cable is unplugged, the notebook would connect to the WLan where WiFi is enabled.

    Hi all

    bought a new satellite Pro C850-1MX (PSCBZE 00M009GR) in December 2013. System works virtually unchanged to the State of delivery. Yet installed OpenOffice and Firefox, AdobeReader in most actual versions. And a updated driver for AMD GPUS to the latest version. No other changes made.

    Now I tried to upgrade to 8.1 via Windows-App-Store Windows. Download was made, run, reboot, installation of changes, preparation of devices--> restart, rollback to 8.0 with 0xC1900101 - 0 x 30018 error code upgrade.

    -(Lien: [http://www.toshiba.de/innovation/generic/windows8_1-upgrade-stepbystep/]): uninstall some components: esp. LAN/WLAN-driver.

    Hmmm... If I do I can't access to Windows App-Store to re-run the upgrade because I have no connection to the network. Stupid...

    -Why I'm updating a nearly unchanged system due to some driver-inflicted where I has not changed anything of the delivery status of can´t?

    Please indicate any tip/solution. Thank you!

    Hello

    Your order of installation of drivers contains the Intel WLan driver.
    But the laptop Satellite Pro C850-1 GR was equipped with the Realtek RTL8723AE WLan/BT combo card.

    I think that you need to uninstall the Realtek WLan driver and WLan Intel driver.
    In addition, you must pay attention to the functionality of BT.

    The card is compatible with the BT and you need to install the driver Package Realtek Bluetooth filter before installing the battery Toshiba BT.

    In addition, do not forget that this WLan adapter is enabled by using the FN + F12 (or just the F12)
