  • Satellite L500-13W - does not load correctly

    HI - he's two months bought new Satellite L500 - all wells and then last week began to have problems charging.

    As usual, I allowed the battery to run down to approximately 10% of capacity before plugging the power cable. While work noticed immediately that the load would stop for about 2 seconds and then reconnect. After a few minutes, he would do it again.
    It is the battery, but it is now flicking on and off quite frequently - 5 to 10 times per minute. Besides being boring as the screen dims, I am sure that this can only get worse on a regular basis.

    I tried another adapter - my son also has a Satellite, and the problem is still there, this isn't a problem with the cable.
    I would be very grateful if anyone has any suggestions. I can take it back to the shop where I bought it, but it is about 1 hour drive, and I need my computer every day, if I can't leave with them for a while, before driving another hour and return to perceive.

    Hi merriman.
    hope that is not related to a hardware failure...

    Try the following:
    -machine boot without a network, only battery
    -while booting press F8 and choose no matter what option, the screen will remain (better is to do it with a startup back disc but..)
    -Leave the empty battery
    wait about an hour and go through the same procedure
    This period of time should be much shorter!
    -Plug the and leave it 24 hours without using the machine, do not turn on battery charge (I think that 12: 00 will also be long enough)
    After this execution machine without power until the system requires 'more power'
    avoid loading in short cycles, each charge cycle decreases the capacity of the battery
    allways ac-power: each 2 minutes battery is checked and reloaded, that means in a year, the charge cycles are lost...

    Hello

    > I already looked in this forum and other sites, but none of the solutions have solved my problem.
    Does that mean exactly? What have you already tried exactly?
    You should post this very important information what you exactly did.

    Furthermore, I can't find any more information about your operating system. You are using Vista 32-bit, but is this preinstalled Toshiba or have you installed yourself?

  • Satellite L500-13W - creation of possible recovery on another OS disc?

    I got a Satellite L500-13w and it came pre-installed with Windows Vista and the recovery of files, but I formatted the PC and installed Windows 7 and then installed XP.

    Now I want to use the system recovery to return to Vista, but I didn t create a Vista recovery CD using the files that came on the separate partition. If I had again the file instead, they came.
    So my question is, under Windows XP, is it possible to use these files to create the CD or the recovery file?

    Please answer

    Hi Nagravison-PT,

    Unfortunately, this is not possible. The Toshiba Recovery disk can be created on a preinstalled OS, because only there, the recovery disk creator is installed.

    On the second partition recovery files are now unnecessary, because you can use HARD drive recovery option more and creator of recovery disc is removed.

    What to do now?
    You use a Microsoft disc or you order a Toshiba Recovery disk:

    Hello

    I have Satellite L500-13W and install Windows 7 32 bit. I have download all the drivers.

    What order of installation for my model?

    Hi jason_x,

    I agree with Akuma. Two weeks ago I also installed Windows 7 on a disk of Microsoft and after installing Windows 7, I started with installing the chipset driver. Then I installed the Intel Storage Manager, then display driver. After that, I installed the rest of the necessary drivers.

    I didn't use a special installation order. After installation, all devices have been properly recognized in device without yellow exclamation points Manager.

  • Satellite L500-1EK does not illuminate

    Hello

    my laptop closed suddenly, and now it turns on again. When I press the power button, the light is on for a few seconds but nothing works. It happened again in the past that I could open it after a few hours and another time, I couldn't open it at all. Can you help me?

    Toshiba Satellite L500-1EK

    Hi AkisM

    To be honest, it looks like a serious hardware problem.

    I m not very good if its RAM or card mother question related, but in case of malfunction of the RAM, this problem could be solved easily.

    RAM replacement isn t very delicate. For the most part its user described in manual and in my opinion, that the modules must be verified in the first place.

    Of course, card problems mother, the replacement of RAM is not very useful.

  • 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

  • Re: Need of Satellite L500-13W - installing Windows XP - details

    I have a laptop Toshiba L500 13W originally shipped with windows Vista.
    I have already installed Windows 7 ultimate 32 bit, but I don't like Vista or 7, becausa of this new interface of the taskbar.
    So I thought to install windows xp on it.

    Toshiba offers drivers, but I had problems to install xp on a Vista desktop computer designed.
    I had to make a special CD with SATA drivers, which toshiba does not provide for this laptop.

    So I wanted to know if somone to people that you have already installed xp on this laptop model.
    If you had problems, what drivers did you use, and if the original disc to factory worked.

    Thank you for reading,

    Please reply!

    Hi mate

    First of all, you can install Windows XP on this laptop without the installation of the SATA drivers too.
    In the BIOS, you will need to set the compatible SATA controller mode (instead of AHCI).
    This will simulate an IDE HDD controller and it does not all SATA drivers.

    Of course, it s advisable to install SATA drivers due to the performance of the HARD drive but Win XP runs in compatible mode too.

    The laptop L500-13W belongs to the series of PSLJ3E.
    You should choose this series to download driver.

    You can download the drivers from the European driver Toshiba page.

    Intel Storage Manager contains the SATA drivers

    Hello

    Hmm. Win 7 drivers are not yet out, but I found some beta readers on the Toshiba page we:
    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/home.jsp

    Maybe you will find some Win 7 drivers for series L500/505

    Otherwise I would recommend you to check if you can activate the WLan in Device Manager-> properties-> Advanced tab Wlan card

    There are a few additional options, that maybe the WiFi we / off would be there also.

  • Satellite L500 - keyboard does not work

I flashed the BIOS, update drivers, held shift for 10 sec (read on another forum), reset computer, check the updates of Windows Vista and ran 3 checks of Virus.

    Hello

    Can enter you the BIOS (F2 key) with internal keyboard?
    If it isn't the internal keyboard seems to be defective and must be replaced

    I don t think you can do more. I mean you've tried everything what is possible and if an external keyboard works the installation of the OS should be ok.

    The keyboard can be ordered and replaced from an authorized service provider. Do you know how to contact the guys?
