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

  • Satellite C50 - Has important questions for keyboard

    I have a C50 - A Satellite with some of the key works and others aren't important issues for keyboard. For example, none of the keys work, S, and D do not work and when I press the space bar I can sometimes get the letter S to work.

    I tried two new keyboards that made no difference, I searched and searched for info on the net and this seems to be a problem with Microsoft updates but no one can tell me which one. This same issue seems to affect other brands as well, so I can assume safely that is not a hardware failure.

    Some have said I should disable or remove the xchi/reach in the Bios that is my only option. I won't complete a full restore because of the other installed software and yes I can do a back up, but why does anyone Toshiba meets all the concerns raised.

    It is the first Toshiba I owned after many years using Dell products, and I have to say that after this experience I will not buy another Toshiba.

    Can anyone confirm with certainty what is causing these issues, sorry I don't want assumptions, I'll try the Bios fix, but I have other than full recovery does everything else.

    Sorry I don't want assumptions

    Sorry mate but I think it's always hard to say what could be wrong without touching the laptop and so you will need to check that certain workarounds have recommended.

    For example, none of the keys work, S, and D do not work and when I press the space bar I can sometimes get the letter S to work.

    It would be interesting to know if the external keyboard work correctly.
    If you will not see the same keyboard problems using external USB keyboard, this problem is not related to the software (Microsoft updates). In my view, this would mean that the internal keyboard is defective.

    However, you can also try to roll back the system to the first time... that would also eliminate updates Ms... and in the event that one of the updates would affect the functionality of keyboard, this work around should help to y for remedy.

  • 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.

  • Satellite C50-A-571-two questions about download Toshiba drivers

    Hello all, great day... How's doin?

    I'm new to this forum, it is good to will here hoping finds the solution to every problem we face

    My first question is: why download drivers of "http://www.toshibamea.com/" is so slow and limited or something? It never ends download, I have always the connection interrupted when trying to download a driver, are there not other mirrors or something?

    Second question:

    Why are there so many useless drivers? as I put all my preferences, product type, family, model, series, and he gave me 33 pilot and some of them are not the drivers for my laptop

    I have a portable Satellite C50-A-571

    Hello and welcome

    I m not an expert but I'll try to offer my responses.

    1.
    As far as I know page of media you use is offered for the Middle East and Arica. I don't know where is the server placed but the download should not be problematic. In the past, I've used several times to check drivers and everything was OK. Perhaps there is a problem with your Internet connection.
    Toshiba support and download page is certainly not limited and can be used whenever you want.

    2.
    I ve checked the download page and found 33 results for Win7 64 bit so I assume you want to install this version of Windows.
    In any case all the stuff listed are not just pilots, but also specific tools useful to Toshiba and utilities. This tools and utilities to control some useful special features as feature special keys or the HARD disk protection.

    I recommend install you all of them and just have a total control on your machine. Of course if you don't like or don't need some of them they can be disabled or removed from the system.

    I hope that my opinion is useful for you. If you have any other questions you are welcome.

  • 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.

    -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.

  • Satellite P10-304 - update Windows 7 problem

    I have a Satellite P10 304 to 2003 which has Windows XP, but I need to update for obvious reasons. I bought a copy of Windows 7 (32 bit) and installed without any installation problem, however I can't update Windows.

    I reinstalled, deleted the hard drive and reinstalled again. Tried the stop and start the Windows Update utility.
    Downloaded the stand-alone Windows Update.

    Updated the BIOS to V2.0 and downloaded the Toshiba Service Station application (who says no update is necessary).
    All this without success.

    My hopes were raised when I saw that the Station Service for Windows 7 32 bit software was available for the P10 304 but I am now at a loss.

    Anyone know if this laptop can be upgraded to Windows 7 and how to get updates of work?

    Help is welcome.

    Peter

    I'm sure that installation of Windows 7 update problems are not specific to Toshiba problems even if you use the Toshiba laptop.

    From my point of few, you should check the Microsoft support pages to find the solution.
    For example this:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/w...#1TC=Windows-7

    Just a tip: I had some problems in the past to install updates because of the antirust software. He locked the installation of some essential updates and after you disable temporal, updates could be installed...
    Missing Service Packs might concern the single installation of patches.

    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.
