• 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.

  Can anyone help?

  I have a Satellite L500-1WG, I ripped out the music in my music (the default setting), and it does not show in my media player library. I spent hours trying to figure this

  Hello

  I think you should check the settings of the Windows Media Player library. In Options > library, you can choose the files that need to be monitored. I think you should monitor the folder where you have added music.

  I am looking for some advice,
  I'm far from being a computer whizz but know my turn well enough. I put my model below.

  No apparent reason, I have the black screen.
  The laptop was working fine yesterday. Windows has shut down the computer automatically to install an update. Since the laptop this morning train, nothing.
  The power lights, flashing web cam, windows sound times.
  No courier. But nothing

• Satellite L500 - 1WG PSLS0E - impossible to reconnect wireless

  * Computer info: *.
  Satellite L500-1WG - Partnummer: PSLS0E-07502EN5

  Windows 7 Home Premium

  The drivers are up to date:
  -Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter version - date driver 21.06.2006 - 6.1.7600.16385
  -Realtek RTL8191SE Wireless LAN 802.11n PCI-E NIC - 30.07.2010 driver date version - 2017.2.730.2010
  -Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller - 23.06.2010 - version 7.23.623.2010 driver date
  I disabled the "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" for all 3 of them.

  * Problem: *.
  When I start the pc, it connects to my wireless router as usual, but then after that 30-60 minutes it stops working. He always finds the wireless router and the signal is excellent (4-5 bars), but when I try to connect it gives me the error message that it is impossible to connect to my router.

  If I restart the PC, it is always impossible to connect.

  But if I turn the computer completely off and leave it for a while, it works when I start it again, which suggests that he may need to cool (we noticed that the computer is warm enough, and that the fan is spinning a lot... but that could have been the same before - just that we it has not noticed that it was not a problem)

  ... But if I only it hibernates and let it cool for a while, it does not work to reconnect when I start again.

  I did a test earlier: I started the computer and made sure the wireless connected - then I put into hibernation and he did it again, and after that, he was still unable to connect. Then I stopped had and turned on the right now - and then it works fine.

  It's the same question at the local library, but my in-laws it worked fine for 2-3 hours the other day.

  My other pc that runs on Ubuntu, works without problems on our wireless.

  Any ideas?
  -Is it a virus?
  - Or my card network is not able to take the heat (material)?
  - Or is this a bug of Windows/driver (software)?

  I plan to reinstall windows, but before crossing with whom I was wondering if it's worth the hassle... Is it a hardware error, and should I just go directly to the seller?

  What you can try is updated the BIOS. Latest version is installed on your laptop?

  Another question: where you find WLAN driver version 2017.2.730.2010?
  Toshiba's latest version 2015.1.0427.2010?

• Satellite C660 - Diagnosis indicates a failure hard disk

  Run the diagnostics on my two day old - Satellite C660 shows a failure on the hard drive. Check disk hard Windows ran without failure.

  Can I assume that it is a false indication by diagnosis of Toshiba? The thread on this topic is not conclusive on this issue.

  Thank you Fred

  Hi frredi,

  Diagnostic tool what you mean? It's the Toshiba Diagnostics tool that shows an error on the HARD disk?

  If Yes, you must contact the seller of the laptop and ask for replacement laptop. Bad HARD drive sector you can still get but he s not recommendable to save important data in this regard.

  So just give shop and take a new one. :)

• Satellite L850 - how to replace a HARD disk recovery partition?

  Hello.

  Toshiba laptop Satellite L850. PSKDGA-02Y012. The original HARD drive has failed in his colleagues even mobile, so we replaced the two HARD drive after you have created a recovery USB. When used to restore the operating system to original status of OOB.
  That has worked and portable runs much, but now I want to BACK the recovery partition (now only on the USB I think) for the new HARD drive.

  Simple to shrink the disk HARD C: (partition 2) on the HARD disk, but then how to transfer twhats on the USB (USB recovery stick) back on the HARD drive?

  Thanks for any help.

  Karim...

  Hello karim

  When you buy the notebook you will get it with preinstalled operating system (recovery image). Original recovery image is saved on the HARD disk on the recovery partition.
  Each owner of the laptop has option to make the backup recovery image and create recovery media. It could be the DVD or USB support. You can do this by using preinstalled Toshiba recovery media creator tool.
  This tool will create bootable recovery media that can be used for the installation of original image recovery if there is problem with the installation of image disk HARD recovery or when the drive is defective and must be replaced.

  Where the HARD drive is faulty and should be replaced or the owner of the laptop to upgrade HARD drive, you can install original image created using recovery recovery media (USB). After installing recovery image, you will have the same situation as for the first boot after the purchase of the laptop. With other words notebook will have factory settings again.

  In this case original recovery image is already copied onto the new HARD drive and you will also be able to start the installation of HARD drive recovery. There is therefore no reason to copy a recovery on HARD drive media.
  Please note: installation of HARD drive recovery works with the factory only settings.

  If you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask.

  Good luck.

• Satellite 3000-514 and put to hard disk

  Hello

  I recently bought a new hard drive (Toshiba MK6026GAX, 60 GB) for my Satellite 3000 514. When I replace the old with the new hard drive is not recognized. The version of the BIOS is later (2,30 trad) from the side support Toshiba. Someone now how this could be fixed?

  Thank you
  Christian

  Hello

  As Quad says no each HARD disk will be recognized because of the size.
  You must contact the ASP for the drives supported. It has detailed information about the supported HARD drive sizes. But without a professional help s not possible to recognize the HARD drive.

  Good bye

• Satellite A300 - how to use two hard disks?

  My Satellite A300 came with two 200 GB hard drives (drives C and D). What is the best way to use the D drive? Now I have nothing about it. If drive C fills the computer automatically switches the D drive?

  A basic question, I know, but the manual provides no information on this subject.

  Hey Dearborn,

  > If drive C fills the computer automatically switches the D drive?
  No, D: drive will not be filled automatically.
  When installing the program, you will be asked which drive they will be installed. So you can choose between C: and D: drive.

  In general there are no rules the use of two hard disks. You can do what you want.
  In my opinion the best is if you install all the programs on C: drive (first HARD drive) and save your private files such as photos, videos, documents, etc. on drive D: (second HARD drive). Its advantage is that if you need to reinstall Windows at all times, these files on the second HARD drive will not be deleted. ;)

• Satellite M40 does not start from hard disk - read error

  "I push the button - briefly see the In Touch with tomorrow TOSHIBA screen - then ' + a disk read error occurred press Ctrl Alt Del to restart +".

  I control alt delete brings me briefly on the screen TOSHIBA where I can choose either F2 or F12.

  Do I need a startup disk and where can I get one in order to boot from the CD ROM?
  Do I try to get into the Satellite M40 product Recovery DVD-ROM - this concern for me as the hard drive will be reformatted and all data will be lost.

  I'm stuck please help!

  Hello!

  If you enter the product recovery disc, Windows will be relocated and will be erasing all data on the HARD drive.

  I think that your HARD drive is damaged. You can check this with the Drive Fitness Test. Here you can download:
  http://www.HitachiGST.com/HDD/support/download.htm#DFT
  Download the CD image, burn it to a CD and boot from it. Then you can test the HARD drive.
  On the same site is a user's guide if you want to know more.

  By the way: you can save the data on the HARD drive, when you put it in a box external HARD disk. Then you can save the data on another PC, if the HARD drive is ok and have no errors.

  Good bye

• Satellite A30: Replacement of RAM and HARD disk

  I am about to replace the HARD drive in my Satellite A30 with a 100 GB one and update the RAM in both slots 1 & 2. Can someone give me a step by step guide to do this?
  Also to clean the mouse buttons leave because they no longer work correctly

  Thank you very much

  Hi Andy,.

  To replace the hard drive, you need to remove the F5 screw on the bottom of the laptop. This will allow the optical drive to slide toward the front of the laptop so that you can get on the hard drive.

  Remove the four screws (2 on each side) that hold the hard disk, and then gently slide forward to disconnect its multi connector.

  Remove the two metal (one on each side) of the old drive brackets and attach them to the new drive then carefully replace the new drive and drag it to the back of the laptop (be careful not to bend the pins).

  Finally replace the optical drive and fix it with the screw (F5).

  Remove the RAM modules is described in the manual of the A30 user but briefly it is to remove the screws holding the access plate on the bottom of the laptop, and then releasing the fasteners securing spring-loaded modules RAM, so that they can be angled to allow them to be removed from the location of connectors. The new modules can be inserted (they won't be back in a sense) and pushed into place until the fixing pins 'click '. It is very important that you take adequate and anti-static precautions before accessing RAM modules as they can easily be 'flashed' by a discharge of static electricity.

  Kind regards

• Satellite A100-192: after Vista installation HARD disk capacity has decreased

  I am a user of Satellite A100-192 with 120 GB hard drive. After I installed Vista Ultimate, I saw this total capacity of my hard drive completely passed to 92, 8 GB instead of 120 GB while it was XP.

  What can be the problem? How can I reach the other capabilities of my hard drive?

  Vista needs and used 2 partitions. The second partition is not visible and it s necessary to Vista backup and restore functions.
  Maybe you have verified that the size of the first partition (C) and didn't note the size of the second partition.
