Satellite L500 and retrieval of records

Hi all

I just bought a L500 and I realized that my system is 64 bit, but the recovery disc that came with it is 32-bit.
Does that make the whole any differece? Should I contact Toshiba for a 64-bit recovery disc or is it possible that I can create a recovery disk?

Thank you

Vini Cruz.

Hey Vini Cruz,.

I checked the specifications of some models of Satellite L500 on Toshiba website and it seems that some are equipped with 32-bit recovery disc and the preinstalled operating system is 64-bit.

If you want a 64-bit recovery disc, you will need to create it by yourself using the Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator. It creates an image of the OS 64-bit factory settings which is the same as 32-bit but only 64 bit ;)

For more information, see also the chapter 3 user manual.

  • Satellite L500 and problems with the Wi - Fi

    Hello people

    I'll just throw my problem there.
    First of all my details and information that can help me to help you!

    Satellite L500 running windows 7 (note: same problems when installing Vista)
    Latest drivers wireless as well as the latest drivers for everything.
    My wireless router is 1 billion active voip 7000 series sound quite good for when I got it about 2 years ago and works well.

    Basically, the problem is that the wireless on my Satellite L500 keeps dropping out. I m not more than 20 meters at most, right now I m 10 m with 1 wall in the way. I tried to make a website, and he says has fallen to either unable to find host connection.

    However other computers laptops in the same room, same place at the same time has no problem at all. Has ever.
    As soon as I'm in the same room as my router, it works again. Sometimes works if I stand right on the opposite wall.

    So basically I m thinking my card wireless in my laptop is defective or simply not good?
    Can u replace the card with another wireless? Maybe the Toshiba ones are just no good? I read so many problems with these cards Toshibas wireless...

    Anyone have any ideas? I ran out of the info you need? I repost he's again in a day or two with the types of wireless devices in every laptop.

    Hello

    For the moment, I doubt that your wireless network card is broken. Before Exchange you it you must also update your BIOS and not only the WLAN card driver. Two updates you need to download it from the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    I had a similar problem with my Toshiba laptop and WIFI connection. The problem was in the WLAN energy saving mode Windows power management. Here, you can also choose a mode for energy saving wireless network card. Turn it off, and then choose a maximum Performance.

  • Satellite L500-113 - how to record audio from the Web site?

    I have a L500-113.

    I am the controller program for an Internet radio station and want to record audio streaming from our website. Regardless of the recording software, I can record only since the built in MIC, even if the flow is fortunately playing on my computer. No other recording device is displayed in Device Manager. Surely I can record of built in the card Realtek sound? I installed the latest drivers/Manager Realtek from Toshiba.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hi mate

    I think that the laptop supports a Realtek audio chip.
    I have a laptop with the same Realtek audio chip and I can record the audio stream of a Web site.

    I m using a free tool called no. 23 Recorder.
    Google for it and you will find some details!

  • Satellite L500 and Satellite P200 - compatible keyboards?

    I need a new keyboard for my L500 and discovered, that the keyboard of the P200 (and other models) seems to be the same (105 keys, key, victory 2 keys). The keyboards are 100% compatible or they just look alike?

    Hello

    In my opinion, this question is for Toshiba service and not for forum users.

    In any case, I think the two keyboards are not the same and you must order 100% identical keyboard designed for your laptop model.

    Question is: why looking for old models of laptops keyboards if you can order a new one for L500.
    On eBay you can get quite affordable.

  • Satellite L500 and the noise of the fan

    Last week, I bought a new laptop Satellite L 500 with Inter i3 processor, 1 GB, 4 GB of ram ATI graphics card, etc.
    Everything is OK in general, however, I think the fan is very noisy.

    I used to own a HP Pavilion laptop and could hardly notice the fan while with my new laptop, the noise of the fan is really loud.
    Does anyone know if this is normal or if it could be fixed somehow?

    I did some internet research for a solution, but I couldn't find anything, and apparently nobody complains noise from the fan on L 500 computers portable so maybe it's only me that have this problem?

    Thank you.

    Stefano

    For optimal use for laptop use the balanced power plan. Go to the advanced settings for this plan and energy saving of Toshiba, you can find cooling method.
    The level here. I'm sure that notebooks fan will be much quieter than before.

  • Satellite L500: webcam shows a group's default image - do not live photo

    I have Toshiba Satellite L500 and im having problems with my Webcam. It could be very simple to fix, but for the life of me can not understand!

    I click on photograph, and when it goes in the capture screen it will not display a live peak.
    Instead, it shows just a default image of a group of people looking at the ocean.

    If you click on capture or just record, he captures or records this image instead of what came the web should see. If you remove all the image in the preview screen it still shows this one photo!

    The laptop is less then a year old and I rarely use the webcam. This problem has only just begun.

    The webcam has already displayed a live picture.

  • 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.

    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 ;)

  • The bottom left of the Satellite L500 gets hot

    I have tried to understand it, but can't find any decent help on that.

    I have a 5 years old toshiba Satellite L500 and continues to get very hot on the lower left side. Now, I know that my hard drive is in the bottom right and this side never gets hot. So what I need to know is really what the balls - what is getting hot at the bottom left?

    I can't find patterns that can tell me exactly which part is which on the inside, so I have no idea of what gives me questions when I'm using the internet or play games. I have a fan in my laptop and it is on a surface of grated so air can get to it easily. The problem lies in the lower left hand side.

    As is - this does anyone have an idea why the low 1-1, 5 cm my screen gets too hot? It would be great! Thank you.

    As a writer, it is very worrying that these things as I need my laptop to stay alive for a year or two. (Cannot afford a new and use it for literally everything I do...)

    > So what I need to know is really what the balls - what is getting hot at the bottom left?
    How about the vents?

    The left side for laptop contains cooling grids, and you will find the cooling fans.
    Hot air flow by the left hand side so the surface s mobile is hot
