Satellite L300-055 - out VGA doesn't work on external TV

First I'll give you my laptop Specs: Toshiba Satellite L300-055 series laptop purchased January 2009-2 GB RAM upgrade - Intel 4 Series Chipset Family

Well, I recently bought a cable/connector as a link: [This One | http://www.vista24.biz/ebay/tpschc/v2b27214c.jpg] and when I plug it in to my my VGA port and the other end to the TV (via RCA) and follow the instructions by turning off my cell phone then turn on the TV and then turn the path on the laptop - but nothing shows up on the TV.

The cable works perfectly well. When I press fn + F5 it shows that that no external monitor is connected. Do I need drivers? My laptop can't stand not the tv-out. If not, is it possible to install an S-video port on my laptop?

Thank you

Hello!

The VGA port transmits the video signal from the laptop to the external display using this port.
Yes, the port of thumbtack is AFAIK the video RCA/component in Europe.

I didn t find all the details regarding the allocation of the pins, but you must make sure that the TV supports.

Good bye

    Hello together,

    I have a problem with my Satellite L300-22R model PSLB8E-0QL028GR (Ubuntu 8.10) and the fan control. At first the fan does not work. After a few minutes, the fan operates at 100% until the laptop is turned off. I think it's a problem with acpi.

  • Windows 7 on Satellite L300 - 17l - some drivers do not work

    My machine worked fine on XP but I installed the new copy of Windows 7. I installed most of the drivers and they worked, but when I come to install value added Package (in Toshiba says that VAP includes Power Saver). It seems complete installation very well, but then I can't find anywhere Power Saver. I tried to install Power Saver for Xp, but it seems that it's not good for Windows 7. Also, I installed the driver for Intel GMA X 3100 graphics, but in the views settings it shows that mobile Intel 965 chipset, which is actually my mmotherboard

    http://img203.imageshack.us/img203/6016/71178252.jpg

    Anyone have any ideas what I can do to make my Power Saver runs and tracks video driver?

    Hello

    Satellite L300 - 17L is equipped with INTEL graphics 965GM (CRESTLINE) controller! If your GPU driver works fine!

    With regard to the VAP:
    First of all, you must update the BIOS to the latest State and then you should try to reinstall the VAP for Win 7.
    Don t install Power Saver for Win XP because it won't work!

  • Satellite L300 - 'W' and 'F' keys not working do not - cannot open a session

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300.
    My 'F' and 'w' keys do not work and because I have a built-in HARD drive password containing these letters, I can't start my computer.

    I got a problem "starting" a few months back, and what I had to do was restore my laptop to an earlier date. I did it through management of Boot at startup. The only thing is that I don't remember how to do it now.

    I can't find the restore disks that could come with my laptop - so the only way I can do, thanks to a Startup Manager.

    So, how do you do a system restore? or y at - it another way to solve this problem?

    Help, please! :)

    Hello

    If I understand your case, the HARD disk password has been set and now you are not able to boot the laptop because the password can not be typed due to the defective keyboard.
    Right?

    Hmm, replace the keyboard buddy I think it's just the ideal solution.
    Of course, you can try to plug an external USB keyboard but I don't know if it will generally work at the BIOS level, it should work, but in the worst case you will need a new internal keyboard m.

  • Satellite L300, how to start from the cd/dvd external USB drive?

    I have an old laptop Satellite L300, latest version of the BIOS (2.20) installed.
    I would like to start on a connected external USB CD/DVD player
    PROBLEM:
    BIOS will not start on this CD/DVD disc.
    In the BIOS boot priority is: CD/DVD, USB, HDD
    BEHAVIOR:
    When starting, computer ignores the CD/DVD, ignores the USB and start on the HARD drive.
    QUESTION:
    Is it possible at all boot for CD/DVD USB external?

    Thanks for the efforts made to respond.
    Concerning

    It is NOT possible, I thought. REASON: The BIOS does not, does not reckognize CD/DVD (does not test if code such USB-CD/DVD bootable) drive connected via USB.

  • Satellite Pro L300 PSLB1A: Recovery disk doesn't work no-error 0xc000000f

    operating system is vista professional and toshiba laptop L300 PSLB1A - 02S 008

    Hello

    You mean that you cannot start the laptop using the Toshiba Recovery disk you created?

    Go into the BIOS and check if the CD/DVD drive is recognized. It should appear on the first page of the BIOS.
    If the CD/DVD drive is not listed, then you should set the compatible SATA mode and must save the changes.
    After this attempt to boot again from the recovery disc.

    I also searched on the Toshiba driver European page for info and found a few details;

    There is an update of firmware for CD/DVD TS-L633A and TS-L633P player.
    This Firmware solves "sometimes not able to writing on DVD + R media'.
    The problem occurs only on DVD + R media, other media type have no problem.

  • Satellite L300 - 1bd LCD backlight is not working properly

    Hello

    A few days ago the backlight of my l300 stopped working properly.
    I tried to turn it on several times and sometimes it lights up briefly and then goes out again.
    Any idea on what should be my next move?

    I called a repairshop, and the guy who I spoke told me that they would charge 50 euros just to open it and that he was afraid he would get a new lcd screen that would cost me an another 150 euros. I can't afford it, or I don't think it would be a smart move to do a 200 euros on this laptop repair...

    now because the backlight went briefly and then, I'm kind of hopeing the cable that connects the screen to the computer could be broken / not connected correctly. I found a repair manual which makes me think that I can change myself, but: is there a way I can make sure that the default is before trying to connect a new cable? What kind of cable should I and where can I get it?

    I hope you guys can help out me!

    > A few days earlier, the backlight of my l300 stopped working properly.

    Either it's just a FL inverter question or the default display
    The FL Inverter control the backlight of the display and so I think that it s inverter FL.

    It is a small hidden part behind the plastic screen frame.
    I put t know ho much is it, but it s not very expensive as display itself.

  • Satellite L50-A-19N - sound doesn't work sometimes

    Hello

    I am currently the owner of a Toshiba Satellite L50-A-19N and the sound does not work sometimes.

    When I play an audio file or a video or same file while playing a video from YouTube, works well for a while and then suddenly it stops.
    When that happens, his is always recognized the system because you can see in the volume control, but no sound from my speakers.
    The same thing also happens when I connect my external audio interface (M - Audio Fast Track USB).

    I use Windows 8.1
    Please help me, because I use my Toshiba mainly for music production and play.

    > When that happens, his is always recognized the system because you can see in the volume control, but no sound from my speakers.

    Have you tried to connect a headset while this problem occurs?
    Please check.

    In addition, you must uninstall the audio driver installed.
    Then you must reboot the laptop and after installing the audio driver (you can get it from the page of the Toshiba driver) once again.

    Finally and above all, you said that you are using an external audio interface.
    I m not quite sure all these software but it might be possible that these additional 3rd party software could affect the internal sound card / driver. This should be checked as well.

    If possible I recommend you test the laptop without these 3 tools/software audio

    Hello

    I guess you mean Toshiba command buttons.
    Go to the control panel and select the Toshiba control utility.
    There you should find a TV key which must be set to output TV out

    I think this should solve your problem.

  • Satellite C850 - HDMI out is no longer working after upgrade Windows 8.1

    Hello

    can someone help

    I searched on the web without success.
    I can project is more the laptop to my plasma screen.

    I have tried the win + P-button and nothing happens, off on amd with the hdmi cable etc.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    As far as I know on this device, you can change the video output (between internal and external display) using the function keys: FN + F4

    Have you tried this key combination?
    Do other function keys work correctly?

  • Re: Satellite P200D - 11L - FN key doesn't work, installed VAP

    Recently I have reinsalled Windows 7 last month and everything is OK except for the FN key. When the added value package is NOT installed, some of the functions of work (in fact most of them do). BUT after that I installed the VAP, it does not at all! I checked the settings and nothing is disabled. Flash cards are running, but I can only interact with them with the mouse.
    So I uninstalled and installed the previous version of PPV I used before. The result was the same.

    I tried other things too: I used the DVD provided with the laptop to install windows vista from recovery. The FN key worked! I tried to do an UPGRADE to Windows 7 and see what happens and FN key does not work yet.

    Then I thought that the reason was a Windows Update. I installed all available updates and even once - nothing happened.

    All this is very strange because the FN key and flash cards worked well before the first reinstallation of Windows 7.

    The only other thing I can think is that I did an update of the BIOS before resettlement - had some problems with the sound and I think that helped. If I could, I would have tried to go down but I don't see how it's possible - I can't download the previous version of anywhere! And if there is a backup, it is not on the computer more secure.

    I know this is a little thing, but it drives me crazy! Two lost days just a FN key!
    My warranty has expired 1 year ago and I don't want to lose money on just a key... it is not a service of toshiba in my city.

    Thanks for sharing this with us!

  • Satellite Pro M70-275: screen doesn't work after waking up from hibernation.

    Hello

    I sometimes encounter this problem: when starting the hibernation (not sure of the English term, although that. "light sleep" mode in WinXP...) the screen turns on again. The operating system seems to be up and running again, but I really don't know because I do not...
    Sometimes it works fine, but I would like that it works all the time.

    Any ideas?

    / Johannes Ogren
    Gothenburg, Sweden

    Hello

    Will there be the same situation after waking from sleep mode?

    James is right. Usually, this kind of questions is fixed with the new version of the BIOS, but you can also try installing the latest version of Power saver utility.

    If anything maybe you must reinstall the OS using supplied recovery DVDs.
