Hello

Whenever I log in, it asks to activate windows. also my windows (8.1 pro) is not currently enabled.

Usually, the system already contains the product key and during the first internet connection, the system activates automatically.

  • Satellite C50-B-P0010 - cannot find Windows 7 32-bit drivers

    Hello world

    I can find no support for 32-bit windows7 drivers (Wifi, touchscreen,... etc) for my laptop toshiba satellite p0010 c50 - b
    Help me please guys,

    Thanks in advance for helping me...
    Thank you.

    Not all machines are supported for all operating systems. You can find the drivers on Toshiba download page for your country or try to use some drivers available for other models of laptops.

    If your laptop model is not supported for 32-bit, no us will be able to help.

    By the way: why 32 bit OS? Toshiba supports 64-bit operating systems for years.

  • Utility Toshiba HDD Protection cannot be installed on my C50-A513 Satellite

    I have a Toshiba Satellite C50-A513 running Windows 8 x 64. I tried to download Toshiba HDD Protection three times, but every time I download and then to install it, nothing comes. Once its installed, nothing does not appear. It's like the installation bar ends but no dialog to the HARD drive protection arises. I tried to search in under MATERIAL AND AUDIO Control Panel to check if she had been properly installed but found nothing interesting there.

    Yes, I did download the right driver suitable for my laptop and that several times too just to be sure. Someone could tell me what is the problem with this and how can I make it work?

    Waiting for answer,
    Thank you!

    According to specification specifications your machine was shipped with preinstalled Win8.1 64-bit so I m wondering what exactly you do.
    Please don't get me wrong you have the machine with the latest version of the OS, but now you have problems with the old version of the OS.

    Somehow, it is not logical for me.

    In any case, I ve tried to check the download page for your machine on http://www.toshibamea.com/en/Download-Files but anyway it doesn't work properly. I assume that there is only a temporary problem so I can't check what kind of stuff is listed for download.
    Out of curiosity but have you installed driver Toshiba system first?

  • Satellite C50-A-19 t - recovery disks does not

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite C50-A-19 t with windows OS 8.1

    Recently, my laptop had start-up problems so I contacted toshiba support and they told me to get the backupmedia.toshiba.eu recovery disk and I ordered the drive and it arrived today.

    When I get back the recovery disc and boot from the hard drive (ODD) it brings the windows logo then after a minute, it goes to a white screen and I waited and after a while, he was still a white screen
    I had already been in the BIOS settings to boot from the CD but even after that the same problem persists

    Help, please

    Hello

    Go to the BIOS and disable the option called: secure boot
    Now you should be able to boot from the STRANGE.

    By the way: Please check if the HARD drive is listed on the first page of BIOS (name, size, etc.)
    Where the details of the HARD disk are not visible, drive HARD isn't recognized by the BIOS could be linked to a malfunction of the HARD drive.

  • Special function keys not working not not on Satellite C50 - Windows 8.1

    Hello

    Please could someone help me.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite C50-A0393, I received a few months ago with already installed Windows 8.1 (64-bit). Today, I got a message saying that I had to watch the PC health, a blue message Toshiba about that the access agreement and I noticed that there are three updates that needed to be done, the only one, I remember being the Toshiba Video Player. I think that another had to do with the light of the charger?
    I do not know.

    But once I rebooted my laptop after the update I noticed that the special function keys were not working (i.e. the volume, mute, pause and play, etc..). Then, I went to the Toshiba Office help and in Control Panel and select the keyboard tab. I did as the setting for the special function mode has been selected.

    Now, when this setting is in place, some keys work but for F3, F5, F6, etc. and when I want to use special features that the volume up and down work when pressing 'Fn', but the special function mode is still selected? These two work only, not the mute or the flightmode or bluetooth, which was operating normally before the updates.

    I googled but can't find something specific to 8.1, or not covered do not upgrade to 8.1. I can't find the flashcard utility and do not want to try something where I don't know what I'm doing. How can I get these special function keys working again normally? Sorry for the long message, but I wanted to give as much information as possible.

    Thank you very much

    Melanie

    Hello

    It seems strange to me that an update of Toshiba (Toshiba Video Player, etc.) would have an impact on the key features of function.
    However, the function key (F1 - F10) can be used in combination with or without the FN key. It depends on the special function key mode.

    In case you want to use the F1 - F12 functions without the FN key, the key mode of function must be enabled (should be set to the special mode of operation)

    Full details here how it works:
    https://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD2503B90001R01.htm

    Now it these buttons would not work even if pressing the FN key, then there is a problem with the software.

    First of all I would recommend allows you to set the default BIOS because this mode key function can be changed in the BIOS too.
    After this, check if the key would work. If not, reinstall
    Key feature of Toshiba utility

    And the driver for the Toshiba system

    You can also check if the essential service has not been disabled.
    Start the Task Manager and go to start a number of questions. You must activate all Toshiba apps, services and then restart.

  • Windows 10, nvidia 930 m Satellite C50-C022 opengl error

    I bought this Toshiba - Satellite-C50-C022 with 10 64-bit windows. I can't update the drivers nvidia for the newest version. When I do all the appz I use which uses opengl, the screen goes black. I have to stay with the default drivers 347.52 with what he came. This isn't a problem with appz using direct3d as 3dmax. The problem is with opengl and new drivers nvidia on this laptop.

    Black window in lightwave
    
    Black window in modo
    

    I even downloaded the new driver from toshiba website tcm0007400h and its still does not not with opengl.

  • Satellite C50 - update Windows questions

    Hello

    I bought a Satellite C50 windows 8 year last for my partner (who has the patience of a gnat and click on everything and nothing), when windows updates were installed on a month ago, she lost the office link, she kept flashing on and outside. She managed to access the Internet through internet Explorer tab (only for the bingo & ebay lol).

    An other recent windows update took forever to load then a failure to configure changes return messages that froze the laptop.

    Yesterday, I managed to return to the default value, all settings, after all personal preferences, I went to update the page to change the settings to apply updates before installing, and he said he had to be updated before choosing the updates!

    I'm back there again and I was wondering if there was a specific update that is causing all this trouble. Although my bank balance is looking better, I'll throw this lappy in the bin and just buy another!

    Help, please. Thanks :)

    Hello

    In general, I agree with the view of s IronMan.
    The point is that you can always set the computer laptop initial configuration using the recovery procedure.

    After this procedure the system windows will install updates from Microsoft.
    This may take some time and the unit must be restarted several times during this procedure.

    A system update will install before other updates have been installed.
    Therefore, this process could take a little longer.

    In addition, you will need to update to the latest system 8.1 Win the old Win 8.
    This can be done after have installed all updates to Win 8.
    The Win 8.1 update should be done as recommended by Toshiba.

    The complete step by step instruction can be found here:
    http://www.Toshiba.EU/innovation/generic/windows8_1-message/

    You will be also informed about updates of Toshiba Toshiba service station preinstalled.
    In this case, it will be very easy to get the latest version of the driver.

    I hope this helps a little

    I hope you will reply quickly.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    According to specifications specification , you got your laptop with the preinstalled version of Win8.1.
    With other words, your laptop has been pre-installed with original recovery image designed for this model of laptop. Preinstalled recovery image should not be enabled.

    Recovery image is also saved on the HARD drive and it is possible for you to create bootable recovery media (backup recovery) that you can use for the installation of original recovery image.
    > I'll reinstall my windows 8.1 which came preinstalled on my Toshiba laptop.
    If I understand you right you try to use your laptop with the original recovery image again. Is this good?

    I really don't know what's the problem here, but after the first start, connect your laptop to the Internet and complete the installation. Preinstalled Windows must be activated automatically.

    Hi I have a Toshiba Satellite C850-1 kN and am upgrading to 8.1 windows I got to the screen asking for my product key to activate windows 8.1.

    Thanks in advance

  • Windows 7 Installation on Satellite C50-A-1 possible?

    Thank you for reading my topic.

    I bought a Toshiba Satellite C50-A-1 and I can't install Windows 7 on it.

    I updated the BIOS V1.30 again after that, I have only the Secure Boot option to enable or disable

    There is no option to switch to the CSM or inheritance, because I know that this MUST be done before I can install Windows 7.

    Is it possible to install a Win7 on this laptop?

    Thank you

    Elmar

    Hello

    I ve checked the download from Toshiba on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp page and I see your model of laptop is not supported for Win7, so I think that it is meaningless to install if the drivers, tools, and utilities are not available for download.

  • Install Windows 7 on Satellite C50-A-1JT

    Hello world

    I bought a brand new satellite C50-A-1JT PSCJGE of Romania with no OS.

    First, I tried to install Windows 7 for about one day and does not start, on DVD or USB, only Windows 8, but after I searched on this topic, I discovered that I need to change my settings to MSC Boot UEFI bios and disable the startup of the Secué.

    NOT A CHANCE. Instead of a normal BIOS I have that Setup Utility from Toshiba and I have only the option of Boot Order and Secure Boot, who don't have not helped me.

    I thought that my BIOS is outdated (1.10)
    So went on the Toshiba site and performed a search for an update of the BIOS and the only one was the following:
    [BIOS 1.30-VICTORY for a Satellite C55 - has, C50 - A: http://www.toshiba.com.ro/innovation/download_driver_details.jsp?LNG=27&service=SE&selC fulltext = 2 & selFamily = 2 & selSeries = 312 & selProduct = 793 4 & selShortMod = 4628 & language = 47 & selOS = 46 & selType = 4 & yearupload = & monthupload = & dayupload = & useDate = null & mode = allMachines & search = & action = search & macId = & count ry = all & selectedLanguage = 47 & type = 4 & page = 1 & ID = 90346 & DISO =-1 & driverLanguage = 42]

    .. but unafortunatelly, it's not available.

    So, I have no chance of getting Windows 7 on this laptop?... because I hate 8

    Many machines Win8 is supported for Win7 so, in general, you shouldn't have a few big problems. As you've written, you must first change the settings of the BIOS - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2C03F80002R01.htm

    After that restart your computer and press F12. When the boot menu appears on the screen put Win7 installation disc into the optical disc drive, select CD/DVD as first boot device and press ENTER. ODD must begin to read the Win7 installation disc and the installation program will appear on the screen.

    On this path, I installed Win7 on my U940 satellite.

    Please try again and post comments.

  • I need windows 8.1 product key for my Satellite C50-A483

    Hello

    I am trying to upgrade my windows 8.1 to win 10 (Toshiba Satellite C50-A483) and when I contact Microsoft they asked me about product key for my victory 8.1. I can't find.

    It s from integrated in my laptop from the factory.
    Where can I get the product key for my windows?
    I have another laptop (computer hp laptop)
    The product key is labeled in the back of my laptop

    For the original version of OS that you got with your laptop, you don't need key product for activation. Whenever you install original recovery image Windows is automatically activated.

    In the past product key label was placed on the bottom of the laptop. New model do not have it.
    Unfortunately you can not do more. Valid product key is part of the original image recovery only and cannot be used for any other activation.

    -J' have HD format
    -J' I try Boot CD (do not start) and USB Boot (give me this problem)
    -I don't have Toshiba Recovery CD (I bought the laptop in a big industry in France)
    -Maybe I'll try to install Linu, just to test the HD.
