Satellite L500-164 - keyboard must change in English or Greek

Hello

I am a student in Germany now and I was thinking of buying the Satellite L500-164.
The problem is, in all stores, you can buy it only with the German keyboard I completely hate.

Is it possible to change it to an English (or Greek)?
How much will it cost? How long will it take?
I thought to buy directly from Toshiba, but they don't sell, so I guess I'm stuck with buying it and immediately send it to the service of change of keyboard?

Y at - it stores that sell with English keyboard or can change on demand?

Thank you very much

Well, this will be a solution the other would be to buy a Satellite L500 to the United Kingdom to get a keyboard with English layout.

You could try to order it from some online retailers. There are enough shops online that provides Toshiba laptops

  • Satellite L500-164: 15.6 "does not appear fullscreen in games

    Hello

    I recently bought the L500-164 and installed Windows 7 64-bit. Everything works perfectly, just a thing which annoys me incredibly.

    Whenever I play a game (Counterstrike, Warcraft3, Warsow, soldier) is a big black band on the left and right, so basically the screen of the game resembles a quadrat. I saw even more on my old 15.4 "laptop, because he was able to view as wide screen.

    I installed the new catalyst, but is not possible within the REC to enlarge the screen of the game for the full amount...
    I really want to solve this problem and I hope for your help.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Normally, every game, you can change the screen resolution and I think that you didn t set the resolution of the screen to the right. As far as I know the Satellite L500-164 has a native resolution of 1366 x 768. did you choose this resolution?
    If you choose another resolution that uses another format, you have these bands on the left and right sides.

    In addition, you must use the Toshiba display driver directly. Other drivers are not pre-tested and don t have protection against overheating.

  • Satellite L500-164 - memory graphics type?

    Hello

    I'm new here. Today, I found the Satellite L500-164. I think it's a very good laptop. Especially the price is good.
    Now, there's an Ati Mobility Radeon 4650 with 1 GB of memory in the L500-164. But my problem is, each site there is another description for the type of memory, sometimes its DDR3, GDDR3 (which is of course preferable) could be. Can you help me with this issue? Do you know what memory graphic type is the L500-164?

    Would be nice if you can help me. (and sorry for my bad English ^^)

    Hello!

    You can try to GPU - Z as Akuma said identify memory.

    But theoretically GDDR3 and DDR3 is the same type of RAM. GDDR3 means * graphics Double data RAM *. So it's just memory specifically designed for use on graphics cards.

    Thus, the graphics card's own memory and doesn t share with system memory.

    Good bye

    If I want to hear the sound on a stereo external audio internal is always on! I have therefore two audio lines in my environment. Not really good.

    I have a Satellite L500-164. Is this normal for Toshiba laptops? How can I finally disconnect the internal speakers? In headphone mode everything is ok. Internal speaker is disabled.

  • Satellite L500-164 - BSOD during XP installation

    Hello.

    I installed Windows 7 Professional 64 bit and everything was working fine... no probs. But now I want to install Windows XP (32-bit standard edition) on another partition, but it does not work?

    He gets in the installation CD, it loads the hardware drivers (the first step), but then, when he must step in partitioning menu or "where you want to install xp" - menu, it gives me a blue screen with information: (it's in German, I try to translate it):

    It has encountered a problem. Windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer. If you get the error message for the first time, you must restart the computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:

    Search your computer for viruses. Cancel the registration of any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controllers. Make sure that the disk is properly configured. Run CHKDSK / F, to determine if the disk is damaged.

    Technical information: * STOP: 0x0000007B (0xFA36063C, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

    I tried a lot of things. I formatted all partitions with a live cd of linux, so now the hard drive is completely empty, however, does not work. I guess that windows 7 (64-bit) caused the problem... but WHAT?

    Can someone help me please? I'm going crazy here... I just want to install xp, nothing more... :/

  • Satellite L500-164 - has the touchpad scrolling feature?

    Hello
    I am interested in buying the laptop L500-164.

    Can someone tell me if this phone has a touchpad with scroll function?
    And so, only the page down, or "from left to right?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Yes, the Satellite L500 supports virtual scrolling.

    But that's why you need the driver for the touchpad, this feature is software based on other laptops. It is not a problem because the driver is already preinstalled and more you can download on the page of Toshiba. :)

    Fun with a new Satellite L500. A friend bought me too and it s really great and the price is also good.

  • Satellite L500-164 drivers for Windows XP?

    What about drivers for Windows XP (32-bit)?

    On the Toshiba Driver Site for this product there are only drivers vor vista 32 bit and vista 64-bit...

    where can I find drivers for Win XP? Or the Vista drivers work for Win XP, too?

    I can't test it now because I want to first ensure that it will work with win xp, after that I tried to install it...

    Hello

    The Satellite L500 doesn t Windows XP, it supports only 32-bit Vista and Vista 64-bit. Windows XP is pretty old OS, it the past. Now it of Windows Vista or Windows 7.

    If you want to install XP you must collect the drivers by yourself on external sites, such as Intel, Realtek, and far.

    But to be honest rejoice with OS preinstalled. All new laptops are fast enough for Vista. ;)

    Hello

    Unfortunately it is not possible to change the graphics card. It s fixed/soldered on the motherboard and can't be exchanged. Sorry, but it is not possible to s.

    But if you only need a better resolution of the screen, you can connect an external monitor. Here, you can work with a higher resolution if your monitor supports it.

  • Satellite L500 - 164 Unkown device in Device Manager

    Hello.
    I recently installed Windows 7 on my L500-164 with all driver Vista 64. I have not found page to download special drivers for Windows 7 x 64 on the drivers.
    But there is always an instrument with an unknown status in Device Manager. I installed all the avaible drivers so I don't know what this may be. How can I find and install the correct driver? Name of the device is just 'unknown '.

    Thanks in advance

    In any case, open the properties of this unknown device and click details. You will find the device ID.
    Send us the device ID.

  • Spanish keyboard to change to English

    HI, I bought a MacBook pro MD 13.3 inch laptop computer online but didn't know he said "a Spanish keyboard «...»»

    is it difficult to change? I'd be better trying to return it to Amazon?

    Thank you

    Hi docelec,

    If you buy a used Mac, you must confirm the seller has erased the disc and reinstalled the operating system so that it works like a new computer.  If it is an old computer, make sure that the seller provides installation and software DVD supplied with the original system.   When you turn on the computer, it should be in the configuration screen, and you will use your own Apple ID to put in place, then choose regional settings such as the time and language to set the keyboard.

    What to do before you sell or give away your Mac

    Take care

In addition, to enable the LOCKING of the upper CASE with the WIndows on-screen keyboard, LED of the LOCKING of UPPER lights in the real keyboard.

    > I asked TOSHIBA technical support and they say that it is a physical problem rather than electronics. What do you think?

    Well, seems that you need to replace this part
    Usually it s not really complicated to get the keyboard replaced so you can order a compatible keyboard a

    ASP from Toshiba in the United Kingdom and could replace it, but of course, if you think it's too complicated, then I recommend you ask a technician for help. I think that the ASP to the United Kingdom should be able to provide a keyboard with layout in Spanish

  • Satellite L500-164 - is downclocked map grafik

    Hello
    map of this laptop down grafik is timed?
    and if so, is it possible after the purchase of the laptop to get the card to its full/normal speed?
    It would be great if someone has an answer! :)

    THX and sorry for my bad English! ;)

    Hello

    The mobile graphics chips are different from desktop PC graphics cards.
    Due to the risk of overheating it s not possible to increase the speed GPU.

    You should consider that mobile graphics cards cannot be cooled as graphics cards for desktop PC
    Why?
    Because of the available space inside the chassis of s for laptop.

    There is simply no space for the huge cooling modules (cooling water system, etc.) as desktop PC computers have.

    Well done dude

  • Satellite L500-164 does not start sometimes

    Heyas!

    For most laptop does not start on the first attempt. The Power LED lights up, the cooler and the HARD drive start (it looks that they rotate exactly once) and that's it. After a few seconds the laptop turns off again. There is no screen and the LED on the HARD drive also not would light up. If that happens, I start the laptop again and again. In most cases I need to start 2 - 3 times, but once I had to start 20 times until it worked.

    I also tried to start just with the power supply (I hope that's the right word for it, I'm German = D) and took the battery out of it, but the result was the same.

    But when the laptop finally started, it works without problem.

    Greetings,
    Daniel

    It is not easy to say what the problem is but it certainly is hardware related issue and your laptop must be verified by the authorized service partner Toshiba. With the help of diagnostic tools that they can find out why this happens.

    Here in this virtual world we can only speculate on the possible reasons.
