  What to do now?

  Hello

  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 L500-19 X starts and loads Win 7 always like the first time

  OK, so I bought a toshiba satellite L500 - 19 X to the United Kingdom in a store called carphone warehouse.
  It came with windows 7 pre-installed.
  I wanted the 32-bit version, so he ran faster, but he had installed 64, but came with a 32-bit restore disc.

  So I went ahead and restored, now, whenever my laptop starts up, it think it's the first time and load the toshiba implemented and stats to do things then restarts.
  He could do this all day until I hit escape and complete the configuration manually.

  No one knows how to stop this or I have to buy a full version of windows 7 and start again in this way?

  Please please answer now! Thanks in advance guys :)

  Thanks for this info!

• Satellite L500-20 X - no recovery disk

  Hi all

  Since yesterday my Satellite L500-20 x have only called Bluescreens 'Driver not less than or equal'--> Restart! It starts with win7 until the opening of the session, after that reboot every time. I try a lot of things to fix:
  Systemrepair (3Times) and no change
  Recovery of SystemRecovery (per disk HARD no CD) work but always bluescreens and no change to solve the problem.
  Memory check (from Win7) checked 3 times 100% ok.
  Toshiba HDD Recovery (I try several times but it turned off each time by bluescreen process... so I can't do that - unpossible complete recovery!)

  This is the first laptop I have buyed all and I've never heard of a recovery disk - so I don't create one! Now, I can't get in win7 - so I can't create it now. Anyone have any ideas? I want new windows to install... but I do not have the same Win Disk. Win = Win7 64 bit laptop all I have is WIn7 32 Bit for my HomePC.

  I need help!

  Salvation of the beam,

  If you don t have a Toshiba Recovery disk, you can order one at Toshiba directly:
  https://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

  It's worth a try if HDD recovery option doesn't work properly.

  If you order such a disc and install the original on the HARD drive settings will be restored. A clean install factory with all the drivers and tools (on the settings in the box) will be restored, and if that doesn t work, this seems to be a hardware malfunction

• Satellite L500 - failed to initialize webcam

  Webcam always worked... all of a sudden, it will not open and I get the message:
  + "failed to initialize the webcam." Please check your device and restart the application or computer. » +

  The device is what is installed on this Satellite L500 laptop.

  No indication on how I can check (diagnose) the camera

  Can someone tell me how I can check the camera, or its driver, or something else to make it work again?

  Your contribution is appreciated.

  PS: there is no indication below all if I'm going to be notified of responses. If moderators can report what it is a small consideration for those of us who are not technically minded.

  Hello

  I think you should first update / reinstall the driver for the webcam / software.
  You will get the webcam software / driver for Win 7 of the Toshiba UE driver page:
  http://www.Toshiba.EU/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

  before you would be stars the webcam driver installation, I recommend you to uninstall the pre-installed software (Control Panel-> programs and features)
  Then restart the laptop and install the new downloaded drivers

• Satellite L500 BSOD

  Hello

  I have a "small" problem. It all started with the following BSOD:

  0x00009C (0x8922c94c, 0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

  I managed to find the touchpad is defective. I unplugged, problem solved.

  It was working fine until I noticed that a single core working on 2 (Intel i3 M330).

  In the BIOS, I found:

  Freqency Mode Dynamics Processor - always low

  Basic multi-Processing - disabled

  So I went on to:

  Frequency dynamic CPU - Dynamic mode

  Multi-process Core-activated

  For the first time, the 64-bit windows 7 crashed with the followind BSOD message:

  STOP 0X0000009C (0XFFFFF88002F6BB70, 0 X 0000000000000000, 0 X 0000000000000000, 0 X 0000000000000000)

  Since this post I turn on but there is no display, no response.

  Is there any solution for this?

  Model: Satellite L500-1QK

  PSLS9E-01000SEN

  > Since this message I turn on but there is no display, no response.

  I'm afraid I n t m understand what hear you by no display exactly?
  You see the Toshiba start screen and you can access the BIOS correctly?

  From my understanding this BIOS must be set to default settings (in the BIOS press F9 and F10 to save the changes) in order to obtain the same BIOS settings configured by Toshiba, then the BIOS must be configured correctly.

  In General, the BSOD appears due to severe software or hardware problem.
  Most often the system recovery should resolve system problems, but if the BSOD appears even after using the recovery disc, then I guess that your material is affected.

  This would mean that any unique material such as memory or the motherboard needs to be tested

• 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:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=68846

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

• Satellite L500 - cannot turn off the WiFi and network icon changing itself

  Hello

  I have a Satellite L500-1GL (comes with Win 32-bit =) and since I installed the latest updates I can not disable the wireless function. When I use the shortcut key to activate or disable the indicator led is turning on and off, but the wireless feature is always turned on and even the icon which shows the network connection, itself changes without doing something with it.

  A few times it shows Red Cross (as she has no connection), but says: connected. When I use wireless connecton always displays the cable connection icon. most of the time, when he should have been showing the strength of the signal.

  This is reaally annoing. Please help me solve this problem.

  Hi danihun,

  > since I installed the latest updates I can not disable the wireless function.
  The updates you have installed exactly?

  In your case, I would try a system restore to an earlier point.

• Satellite L500 - 152 Display driver Sims3 plus

  Hello. I use this thing = [Satellite L500-152 | http://nordic.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/supportMyProduct.do?LNG=18&service=ND#tab3;] .
  And it was fine, until I came out and me Sims3 and Sims3 World Adventures, after installing both (+ in order correct ofc +), when I tried to start them up, I can not for the game Launcher, because an error message blocks my way...
  "* There was an error during startup. "Check the log for details."
  No info for don't nabs like me, about the location journal. And when you press the button available only here, the frozen Launcher naturally also closes its doors with her.

  So I checked google and found that people who have had the same problem, just changed the display driver to one that is supported by the game, I discovered that mine was not, I have * "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4500 Series."

  _Sims3 taken in charge the radeon drivers are: _
  Series ATI Radeon 9500, 9600, 9800, X 300, X 600, X 700, X 800, X 850, X 1300, X 1600, X 1800, X 1900, X 1950, 2400, 2600, 2900, 3450, 3650, 3850, 3870, 4850, 4870, Â Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) GMA series 3 Series 4 GMA.

  If someone could help me, by discovering what driver of the foregoing (as appropriate), will work on this laptop and tell me where to download it, I would be very very very happy :)

  Those who changed the driver perhaps no laptop and desktop computers. There is a big difference.
  Support drivers is much better for desktop computers.

  Problem is that the drivers for laptops are slightly adapted and designed for optimal graphic operations.
  I'm afraid that this with updating the graphics driver will be not so easy.
  It is always recommended to use the drivers provided by the manufacturer of the laptop. With the help of some third part and untested graphics card driver may be forced to run on a maximum and there is risk of damage or surprise. So be careful with this stuff.

• Satellite L500-1XC HDD Recovery help

  Hi I have a Satellite L500-1XC of second hand, the former owner has installed Ubuntu (which I can't access because of password) as well as windows 7 and I try restore laptop to factory settings, but I just don't know how.

  I tried to turn it off and holding, then 0 and pressing the Start button. On the bottom of the home screen says HDD Recovery at the bottom left of the screen, but after that, he just the part of the selection for me to choose Ubuntu or Windows 7 and then just charge the laptop as usual.

  I tried to get the Recovery Media Creator, but I'm not. It seems that a lot of original Toshiba Utilities and supports have been removed.

  If anyone can help me fix this laptop, I'd be so grateful that I can not really afford to buy a Toshiba Recovery disk.

  Thank you

  > I'm trying to restore the laptop to factory settings, but I just don't know how
  I put t I think that HARD drive recovery would work because Linux has been installed on the HARD drive and I think that the partition table has been changed.
  This might be the reason why the HDD recovery isn't working.

  You can always see this Toshiba document that describes the whole HARD drive recovery procedure:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD1303440001R01.htm

  So now, drive HARD recovery does not work in this case, you can only use the installation disc.
  You can try to install Windows 7 using the Microsoft disk (Toshiba drivers are downloadable) or you order the disc of Arvato:

• Satellite L500 - no disc of recovery or partition recovery - how to reinstall?

  I just bought a new laptop and realize that he did come with a restore disk or a hard disk recovery partition.

  I was wondering if my drive hard breaks down how do I reinstall windows?
  The laptop I bought is a Toshiba satellite L500 and only a few weeks.

  If someone could help on the subject would be much appreciated.

  > I was wondering if my drive hard breaks down how do I reinstall windows?
  If you would look in the user manual you would course a long time ;)

  Use the Toshiba recovery disc creator software to create a recovery disk
  If something goes wrong with the HARD drive, then you can always restore the operating system using the recovery disk ;)

• Satellite L500 - really slow

  Since I got this Satellite L500 for 3 weeks it worked really slow.

  Anyone know what I can do to speed it up, back to normal. Thanks leslie

  Hi leslie113,

  It is really difficult to talk about such things, because nobody knows how you have installed things and a lot of software can slow performance because they always running in the background.

  The easiest way is if you defragment the HARD drive at any time and uninstall all of the software that you don't need more.

  * Main * point is to use the * forum research *. You will find a large number of threads how to improve performance of Windows!

• External Usb Audio Card Popping and cracking sound with Satellite L500

  Greetings,

  My name is Boyan and I am from Bulgaria, and a year ago, I bought a laptop satellite l500 series (I can't tell which is exactly the model at the moment because my computer is not currently with me and my user manual, the only thing that is said is that it is for L505/L500/L500D / L505D.) But from memory I think it was the Satellite L500D-ST5506 which is currently not at my dispossal, because I gave him for repairs for the same problem that I say down below)

  The problem with my laptop, is that when I plug in a Usb Audio card in my laptop I have a crackling sound during live sound is played hollow map external speakers/headphones. I tried several sound cards and speakers/headpohnes which work perfectly well with other computers, including laptops, but the problem continues even when I use an external sound card to connect to the laptop not appearing in my laptop speakers/headphones.

  The problem is important only when the signal passes through an external audio card and it is very disruptive since I use my laptop to create music and I bought a sound card expenssive and speakers that can not be used with the laptop. I tried 3 types of sound cards:

  M-Audio Fast Track Pro

  BEHRINGER uca 222

  and a simple 3d audio usb audio card external and the problem persists.

  At first, I thought that the problem is software and I should install the new drivers, windows 7 automatically recognizes and installs the drivers for the devices and I have its in (but with the cracks and educated) so I tried using the official drivers sold for me with the sound cards, but without success: the problem was still there. I tried to find the new drivers of the sound cards on long official distributors and I downloaded it but the problem was still there. Then I tried to delete all the audio drivers on my computer and just use the external sound card for sound but this eighter helps force. I updated my drivers for my sound card build - in as well but again - no luck.

  After substantial thing frist I did when (2 weeks after I bought the laptop) was to contact the store where I bought my audio card and they said that the problem may be so eighter latency or high voltage of the laptop they advised me to try to reduce the latency of the parameters or to try and see if the problem persists if only my laptop running on battery power. I tried two things, and they did not help. Audio cards worked without problems on all the other computers I tried them but me. So they told me that the problem could not be audio cards.

  What I then was that I gave my laptop for the Distributor official of toshiba in my country so that they can solve my problem. What they told me, is that a problem with the version of windows which was preinstalled on my laptop and it was not compitable with the sound cards (which was bizzar survey because I tried them on the same windows and they worked, only on other computers). So I'm back from my laptop and passed under my Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit operating system to Windows 7 Ultimate edition 64-bit and Windows 7 32-bit Ultimate edition on all versions, that's the problem: whenever I activate a low of passes of audio signal and Audio Usb card he heard cracks and educated. I even tried isntalling Windows XP, but the laptop want spesific SATA drivers for the Windows XP installation which although I found - they helped me install XP and I didn't go the BIOS of the computer to try to put a new and so on, because I'm not sure about that and I could lose my warranty so I said in the official repair shop for Toshiba in my city to put XP on my computer to solve the problem but they can't because they are not liscened to work with software that isn't a recipt for its purchase (which I did not because I bought my windows xp a long time ago and I lost the recipt)

  I gave her to get it repaired for the second time by telling them that the change of my operating system has not solved my problem and what they were doing was they changed the motherboard on my computer, indicating that the build in the device realtek audio on my computer is good enough to support a card usb audio or it may be broken and they change the whole motherboard because the generation of card is stuck, so they did it, but my problem has not been resolved. They told me that although I use and map external audio usb signal always going trough my only internal and I have to disable so I tried to disable this trough Control Panel, but this does not solve the problem and I don't have a BIOS option to disable my sound card build-in. Another thing I thought that maybe the problem is that two audio cards do not work on the same bitrate and Hertz so I put both cards to 16 bit 48000 Hz DVD quality (also tried the other options on the 3 cards that I have) but it's the same thing.

  They told me that it's just my luck and the construction of the sound card does not support this external sound cards and I would had been more careful when they choose to my laptop first.

  I couldn't accept this awnser for several reasons:

  (1) this sound card works on a lower version of windows and are supported by many older models of Realtek and a lot of old computers (one of them bought 2000! and my laptop is of 2010!)

  (2) the guys who were the apperantley of fixing problem don't go so deeply into my problem because they didn't know that in fact the problem was that only they knew that there is a problem with the audio card and the computer interact with them, they knew not that it cracks during the direct play the external audio card.

  (3) I can't accept the fact that Toshiba is manufacturing of models with maps audio chipset that cannot support a simple external Usb Audio card. It is totally unacceptable to me, and I sincerely hope that this is not the case!

  (4) they have tried my audiocards on another laptop of the same series, claiming that they have not at their dispossal at the moment so I'll go tomorrow at a local store and try the sound cards by myself on the same computer in the store.

  What I have now, it was that I gave my laptop for repair requesting a statement of the problem in wrtting with details of the problem so I can go to court or ask for a new laptop, but I'll be charged with little money because according to them there is no problem in the laptop and the problem is that my external sound cards are not compitable with the build in house chipset sound card. If I give my laptop for repair, and there is no hardware problem, I'll have to pay the money. I will do this, but I'm now crazy, because that does not solve my problem and I am wasting time and money.

  What I ask here is, if you can not help me solve my problem and advice me what to do to fix it, please give me the details of the chipset built in Driver sound card on my motherboard, so I can check if it is compitable with my external sound cards and contact the dealers of the sound card to ask them their opinion. Or if you can tell me what it is compitable with and what not, that would be great. Personally, I think this laptop should have no problem at all with a simple external usb running sound card, but I ask you, if you know something more about it.

  If a problem with the build in chipset then Toshiba is manufacturing (or at least sell) audiocards which are not in a normal standart but unfortunately I can not do nothing except complain to Toshiba and never treat whith such productgs more. Otherwise, if this is not true, then my laptop has a problem that is different and I have to go to court with the mans for mounting repair is not my laptop or do not give a new one when I guarantee will not fault of Toshiba and it will be in a way solve my problem.

  I hope that you understand how important it is for me and I hope I have fix the problem as soon as possible.

  P.S

  I want to say that I am familiar with grammar mistakes, that I did in the text below, and I would ask your excuses that I'm not a native speaker of English.

  Hi, I would just say that I had a similar failure although I wouldn't be surprised if she causing of yours, but you never have knowledge, my fault was the lid of my laptop [9 months], it contains the mic and when the lid has been in a certain angle cracks could be heard worse when I got my external sound card all the time it happened, luck, PS, it's a defective membrane [lid to the body] easily missed by engineer because he was the same angle you English is very good
