Satellite L45-S7419 - cannot get device WLAN working for XP

Hello all and ty in advance for anyone who can help.

I have a serious issue that I have not been able to understand and finally just abandoned.

My father has a Satellite L45-S7419 which has wifi 802. 11 b/g, built in at Bestbuy which came with Vista there is quite some time and I finally had the time to put XP on it (which, in itself, was a challenge) and I am unable to get drivers that work with the built-in Wifi.

In Device Manager, it shows the device with a yellow "?" and no driver installed. Unfortunately, Toshiba has no drivers for XP, but fortunately (I thought at the time) realtek had drivers for RTL8187B. Who called on the site - (RTL8187B driver auto Installer Windows (Win2K/WinXP/Vista support), Win2K/WinXP/Vista driver ver.1158 1158 20/11/2009)

I installed the drivers, but the device is not simply either recongize or it some how is not the correct drivers, because the appliance does not work.

Does anyone have an idea what I can do? I tried everything that I can with my knowledge. I tried another way to install and uninstall the device first Manager device, installed the drivers then that the "new Device Manager" jumped upward and the device of RT8187B popped up, but still get the "new hardware found" and the right afterwards "the unit works may not properly" or something similar. As if I had just install the driver itself.

Any help would be appreciated wildly. Ty!

Hello

Have you checked if the WLAN function is? Therefore, you can use the switch of hardware on the laptop and the combination FN + F9.
Check this box!

Can you also tell us what version of BIOS is installed on the laptop? In your case, I'd install the latest version of the BIOS. Sometimes, I could here it solves different problems WLAN. It s worth a try! ;)

I think that, in the worst cases, you must use the preinstalled operating system (Vista). There are all the drivers and tools pre-installed so I m asking you to install another OS. Now, you need to install a large number of drivers and you must spend a lot of time for that so I always prefer the preinstalled operating system.

Welcome them

  • Satellite Pro M70: Cannot get TV OUT work

    I have connected my laptop to my TV via TV-out and a cable to S-video 4 pin. I turned on the TV as output in the advanced settings of my graphics card. I chose the TV via the Fn + F5 keys and I get nothing on my television.

    Can anyone suggest what I might have left out to make it work?

    The S-video cable is new and connect it to the TV is made by a Joytech AV Control Center 2.
    The Joytech unit is operational and the video cable seems OK as the Fn + F5 key indicates that a TV is available - this disappears as an option if I unplug the video cable from the unit of Joytech.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Lorraine,.

    I presume that the TV is turned to your Joytech AV device? I presume that it gives a kind of signal that you check that the TV can detect it in fact. I once spent a happy few hours trying to use my TV in this way only to find it was switched to composites entries not S-video a. ;-)

    Kind regards

  • Satellite A350-20s - cannot get FN keys work

    Hello

    Recently, I formatted the hard drive and installed Vista Home premium new because it was slow. Before formatting, I had turned off the touchpad to use because I found it very uncomfortable to use. So, instead, I used an optical mouse. Once I installed Vista the touchpad did not work and the fn did not meet the F1, F2 - F9... The strange thing is when I press the Fn key, the light comes on and shows his work and when I press Fn + F10, the NumLock Gets and when I press Fn + F11 it goes to normal qwerty keyboard.

    I have downloaded all the drivers for the laptop, including the official Web page of TOSHIBA touchpad driver and tried all the tricks known in the book, but always truggling to get this function of the keyboard work? Your help is very appreciated.

    My laptop is still under warranty, but I'm afraid to send it because they would go like you hav formatted the hard disk drive even I hav installed on the same OS that I already had.

    This is the main reason for this post. Listen to me please

    Hey Buddy,

    I doubt that you have downloaded from the Toshiba site, otherwise your FN keys work correctly! ;)

    In any case, for the FN keys, you need to install Toshiba Value added Package. With this package it is also possible to enable/disable the touchpad. It brings all the FN keys to work.

  • Satellite Pro P300-19 q - cannot get the Wlan to work

    Hello

    Ive just bought the PRO P300-19 q and as many other people cannot get wifi to register even less to connect to any network. I will say that I am under XP Pro. I've updated all the drivers and everything is enabled.

    If anyone can help with this problem it would be greatly appreciated. It seems absurd that Toshiba or Intel have not resolved that, as the problem is ongoing since 2005 - announcement earlier I found.

    Thanks for your help, Zato.

    Hello!

    You have successfully updated the WLAN driver on the Toshiba site?
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com

    Try to update the BIOS of your laptop. You will find on the Toshiba site.

    You use the same standard WiFi on your laptop as on the router? Check in the properties.

  • Satellite A300-1MC (PSAG8E) - get Bluetooth to work

    I just bought a toshiba satellite a300-1mc and cannot get the bluetooth to work on it. ???

    The box says it has built in bluetooth, but even when I reinstall the bluetooth stack he will not recognize the built-in bluetooth device, it just says: connect a bluetooth device and press ok or cancel the installation? I can't take this wise because it only picks up the built-in bluetooth device?

    I checked the hardware Manager and can not still find something to do with bluetooth

    Any help would be very appreciated that I could really do with the bluetooth on my laptop.

    The box say it has bluetooth, it's why I can't work on why I can't make it work

    I'm not sure that if I deleted something... when I first got this laptop, it took about 5 minutes to start so I disabled a startup programs load... but I do not remember stop bluetooth... and I checked to see if I disabled something.

    HELP me please lol

    Rolex is right. I ve checked the specifications specification and Satellite A300-1MC is delivered without BT module. :(

  • Satellite L300 PSLB8A - cannot locate the WLan adapter after downgrading from Vista to XP

    Model - L300 Satellite PSLB8A-01F004
    Australian model
    Place of residence current UK

    Happy new year to you all. I have a problem with the adapter wireless following a downgrade from Vista to XP Pro home. Device Manager indicates that a network adapter, which is the LAN and it does not work properly.

    I have two points with one exception - Ethernet controller and Modem on Bus High Definition Audio device.

    I find all the major engines of the Toshiba Australia but he lists three (I think) site possible WLAN - Atheros, RealTek, and one of the other manufacturers.

    I tried all three without success but am willing to acknowledge that I can have a mistake, perhaps by installing all three drivers at the same time for example.

    The indicator on the front of the box portable wireless lights on or off with the hard switch setting.

    I am also unable to locate the display of all available wireless netrworks, this can be a symptom of the driver is not installed.

    I tried to locate the wireless card, but it doesn't seem to be accessible through the background panels, including the Panel of RAM module.

    Any ideas please?

    > I have two Articles with one exception - Ethernet controller and Modem on Bus High Definition Audio device.

    The Ethernet controller is the WLAN adapter.
    I guess that the WLan driver is missing and so the wireless network card does not appear under network adapters

  • Satellite L45: touchpad scroll feature does not work

    OK, I have a laptop Satellite L45 and I need help.
    The functionality of scrolling on the touchpad worked for awhile and now it will not work.

    I've looked throughout the computer and tried everything and nothing seems to work.
    I don't really know too much about computers in a first time, and no one I know can help me.

    My father had the same problem with his computer, but he says it seems to work himself.
    Mine has not yet and it drives me crazy.

    If someone could help it would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    Have you checked if the touchpad scroll function has been enabled and configured correctly?
    I recommend that you check these settings before you to reinstall the driver for the touchpad.

    Do you know where to find these parameters?
    You can find it in

    + Control Panel-> mouse-> last (device settings) tab-> settings button.

    Here, you should check the * virtual scrolling *.

  • Cannot get bluetooth to work on my Qosmio F10

    Hi, I have a Qosmio F10 but can't seem to use the bluetooth devices. When I went in the bluetooth devices Manager and tried to add a new device, said bluetooth was off and then I went in an another bluetooth application and who says it could not load the bluetooth startup file (although when I checked, it was on the computer).

    Stupidly, I then installed something called Bluetooth Monitor 2 but this actually took away all bluetooth files and I could not find the bluetooth manager plus. I uninstalled this Bluetooth Monitor 2 but still can't find the old files.

    I was wondering if someone could help? I realize it's a guy very newbie Q but I hardly ever use my laptop and can get the bluetooth works fine on my desktop.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you

    Hello

    I do not know what F10 you have exactly, but as far as I know that some of them are without Bluetooth. Each unit with BT has a Bluetooth key in the lower corner.

  • Satellite L45-S742 - cannot install the RAID drivers

  • Cannot get NAVE 810 files for import into LR CC

    I can't get the NAVE 810 files for import into LR CC;  I just signed up for a 30 day trial and I also have a new external hard drive (I use external hard drive a new passport;)  the old one just died.)

    Is there a chance that LR CC does not recognize the D810?  Y at - it something for naming catalogs?    E LR5 catalog was volumes/passport... but that nomenclature is now outdated?

    Any ideas appreciated.

    has been able to get things to work in idenitrifying the mandatory folder 'lightroom' as 'parent '.

    for Mac: in the finder, went into the drive external hard, highlight 'lightroom' clicked on command-i get-info, unlock the preferences to the permissions down to the right and reset to read and write until what macuser (me) is displayed.

    "you can read only" should then replace 'you can write' above the lower area

    then important D810 files can be grouped in their own folder named
