• Satellite L500/00W - gray screen with lines appeared twice

  Hello

  2 weeks ago, I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite L500/00W and today I was reading something online that this grey screen with lines to come...
  He did so twice already... I do worry...

  This could be the cause? How should I do? This happen to anyone else?

  Thank you
  Lily

  Hello

  I m not L500 owner so I can't tell you if that happened or not.
  I A200 and U400 for my company and I didn t have shown such symptoms in the past

  He signed strange s if the display changes the brightness and display vertical lines.
  It might be a problem of display or something with the graphics card.

  If you see this new symptom then I would recommend connecting the laptop for external monitor to check if the same would be visible on the screen 2.

  If the same would be seen on 2nd screen there is a big chance that and GPU would be affected.

• Upgrade a Dell Inspiron 531 to something with more memory and faster?

  Hello, I have a Dell Inspiron 531, 32-bit operating system, and the 3G memory in it but is Vista. I tried to upgrade to Windows 7, but after many attempts, could not go without having to clear everything and start over. So I'd do it if I have to do I was wondering if I could make the machine that is more memory better and faster, without having to buy a new computer say a Dell XPS 8300 (that I'll have to run a lot of photographic software in the future and I understand that this could be a good computer for that?) In any case, it is possible to 'upgrade' the computer something like this please, or I have to save my pennies for a new? Thank in advance for your advice.)

  Hello

  If you upgraded to 4GBs off RAM you won't get many benefits

  Here is an article on what is happening with 4GBs of RAM:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929605

  "If a computer has many features implemented, the available memory can be reduced to 3 GB or less." However, the maximum memory available in 32-bit versions of Windows Vista is typically 3.12 GB. »

  and you should also consult the Dell manual for your model desktop computer see what amount of RAM your motherboard would answer anyway

  http://support.Dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/my_systems_info/manuals?c=us&l=en&s=Gen& ~ CK = anavml

  and here is the reason why you can not upgrade to Windows 7

• Satellite L500 - Windows 8 GPU Drivers

  Hey!

  My apologies if this isn't the right forum. Not sure if it is purely for laptops upgraded via the official update program.

  But anyway, I have a Satellite L500-1ZR which is not covered by the official program, I went and updated my laptop directly through Microsoft. Everything works perfectly until now. However, Windows has installed its own drivers for my Radeon Mobility HD 4500 series and I prefer to use the ATI drivers. And it's normal, I can't install the drivers directly on the ATI site, but when I try to install the drivers via the Catalyst Install Manager which is located on the site of Toshiba, as I always did in the past, she claims that she cannot find any installable content.

  Is there a way to get around this, or is it a matter of waiting (and hoping) that Toshiba to release Windows 8 pilots?

  Here is a nice thread on Win 8 supported laptop series:

  Check to see if your series is listed.
  If his list, he'll win 8 drivers

• Do not see a difference with more memory...

  Hey all,.

  I upgraded to 16gig 8gig and don't see any difference in render time or anything either.

  Is it possible to see if the memory makes a difference?

  Thank you
  Al

  Activity monitor in the utilities operating system. Additional RAM won't really increase rendering speed. You may see improvement if you are working with still images in a large format or with titles 3D project. 16 GB is a good number. It gives you a lot of flexibility, especially if you need to switch between multiple applications such as compressor or Motion or affinity Photo Pixelmator. According to the effects that you treat the real difference in speed will show in improving the GPU and increasing VRAM.

• Satellite L500-1Z1 - not initialize with 8 GB of DDR3 RAM

  I bought two DDR3 4 GB modules, however, when I install both, the laptop does not start. When I reinsert the module 2 GB with one of the 4 GB modules, it works and saves 6 GB. Why it will not work with two 4 GB modules? Must I update the BIOS? Should I change the BIOS, and if so, what needs changing? Help, please.

  Hi MAKnoetze,

  To be honest I have don t think that someone can help you if you n t post your model of laptop.

  Maximum RAM capacity is a function of your laptop model ;)

  What to do now?

  For me, it looks like you used the incompatible graphics driver.
  Have you noticed this problem using the OS preinstalled Toshiba?

  AFAIK you unit was equipped with the INTEL GL40 graphics chip.
  Have you tried the driver from the Intel page as well?

• Satellite L500-1WG - how to use the modem internal?

  I am new to computers and laptops and that you just bought the Toshiba Satellite L500-1WG. I was told, in the shop, he has an internal modem?

  What should I do to activiate/get connected to the internet? Do I need an external modem wired or wireless as well? No difficult language or abbreviations please, I am a total novice with very limited on this subject knowledge. Have only to learn how to start and run the basic set up.

  HEY buddy,

  > Told me, in the shop, he has an internal modem?
  It seems that this shop doesn't know what they are selling or they wanted kid a small round little

  It turns out satellite L500 is not equipped with modem and it doesn t have a modem (RJ12) port.

  So if you want to use the modem connection, you must purchase an external. But for now he s not advised to use a modem, the majority of the pages are not designed for modem more.

• Satellite L500 - I can't see integrated Intel HD Graphics in Core i3 - 330 M

  Hi all

  I have Satellite L500 laptop computer with processor intel i3 - 330 M
  the specifications [page | http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=47663] said he joined the graphics chip HD but I don't see in my device list or anywhere else
  How can I turn on or whatewer?

  Hello

  Satellite L500-xxx was equipped with an additional graphics chip (I guess that he s ATI GPU).
  Why you want to use the chart of your processor, if there is already another GPU?

  I m assuming that this integrated graphics chip HD would work only if no additional graphics chip would be available on the mobo
  Also, I found this notification on the page of Intel:

  + Intel® Graphics Technology offers you an experience visually optimized for Blu - ray * and HD video with Windows Vista * support¹ and comes standard with many laptops, mothers and desktop cards * without needing to add an external and costly graphics card * +.

  and this:

  + Integrated Graphics are not available on all computer systems. Please see the specifications chipset, motherboard or system compatibility +.

  Someone help me please as soon as POSSIBLE.

• Re: Satellite L500-1XJ - changed keyboard

  Bought a Satellite L500 - 1XJ 32-bit with Windows 7 second hand from a friend.
  It worked perfectly until the Toshiba files were accidentally deleted.
  Cannot find it anywhere, so I guess they have been permanently deleted.

  I tried the restore without success.
  Also the keyboard is now mixed up IE for the @ I have to use shift 2 instead of travel "."

  What can I do?

  What Toshiba files do you mean exactly?
  Maybe Toshiba image files?

  With regard to the problem of keyboard layout:
  I guess that the language of the keyboard has been changed.

  Usually, you can add and change the keyboard language in:
  Panel-> clock, language and region-> region and language-> keyboards and languages-> change keyboards.

• Satellite L500-208 does not automatically go to power saving mode

  Dear guys,

  I have a Satellite L500-208 (Serial: PSLS9E) with pre installed Windows 7 64-bit.
  For some time, the laptop does not automatically energy saving mode (as configured in the Power Options).

  Automatic change "Energy saving" worked some time ago and all of a sudden, it stopped.
  However, I do not remember what changed and probably caused the problem.

  Everything works fine and a manual of hitting on "Energy Save Button" also works very well...

  Before you guys suggest an update of the BIOS, the BIOS is version 1.60.
  Current version is 1.90 (or same 2.00?).
  Well, I missed an update and from the Toshiba Web space seems to be very rare, they offer only the latest version of the BIOS.

  Can someone points me to older versions of BIOS, or any that may give a clue to the strange behavior power?

  Kind regards
  Frank

  Hello

  Maybe there's something wrong with the Eco utility.
  I recommend reinstall this tool.
  On the European driver Toshiba page, you will find this tool.
  After the new installation, please check the settings provided by the Eco utility.
  Eventually, you will need to activate the energy saving mode automatic

  Good luck
