• Satellite C855 - speakers suddenly stopped working

  I have a Satellite C855-1J2 running Windows 7 Edition Home Premium SP1. I turned on December 21, 2012 and installed five applications - the latest versions of Firefox, CeltX, Notepad ++, Open Office and Microsoft Security Essentials (I removed McAfee). I have the latest Windows. Since then I have not installed other applications.

  Three days later, my laptop was working fine until, suddenly, that the speakers stopped working. I can identify the specific incident that caused it. I connected a pair of perfectly ordinary headphones using the standard headphone jack, power the laptop off, after that I was done listening but headphones plugged on the left.

  When I turned on the laptop back the next day, no sound came in headphones.
  When I unplugged them, no sound came from the speakers.
  I rebooted my machine and the speakers worked fine.

  However, I am now in a situation where whenever I turn on my laptop, the speakers do not work and they will work again when I restart then. A little investigation of this problem shows the following...

  Whenever I turn on my laptop and go to control panel-> hardware and sound-> manage Audio devices I see two items:

  (1) ' - high definition Audio Device - speakers not plugged"with a speaker greyed out icon with a red arrow.

  (2) "audio digital (S/PDIF) - high definition Audio Device - default device" with a colored external amplifier icon (it looks a bit like a DVD player) with a green check mark. There is an icon of audio level next to him that shows sound whenever the sound is played on my laptop, but no sound is audible, either through my speakers or headphones.

  Whenever I then reboot my laptop and go to control panel-> hardware and sound-> manage Audio devices I can see an article:
  "Speakers - Realtek High Definition Audio - Default Device" with a colorful speaker and a green arrow icon. The sound works perfectly well.

  I already looked online and the Toshiba forums for a solution to this, but while I found lots of people with similar problems of speaker with Toshiba Satellite laptops, I have not found a solution (and when I say something, I mean something a little more useful that "have you tried completely reinstalling your operating system') so this thread.

  Even if a reboot is currently to solve my problem, I obviously shouldn't have to restart my machine at all in order to get something as simple as his, so my questions are:
  (1) what is the cause of this problem - in other words, why what is happening?
  (2) what is the Toshiba solution to this problem?

  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  It seems to me that the issue you described above that the speakers would not be chosen as device by default, but the Audio Digital (S/PDIF).
  Somehow the audio driver cannot detect the first initialization of the system speakers.

  I don't know why this happened but I have two proposals:

  (* 1) * uninstall the audio driver from the system. Download the driver from his most recent of the Toshiba page and install it after restarting the laptop first.

  (* 2) * if installing the audio driver is not enough, the last resort would be the recovery of the system.

  (> 2) what is the Toshiba solution to this problem?

• Satellite L850 - webcam suddenly stopped working

  The web cam on my Satellite L850 has suddenly stopped working.

  It does not appear in Device Manager;
  I downloaded the latest driver on the Toshiba site;
  I checked the BIOS and the web cam is turned on;
  Always when I open the web cam application I get the following message:

  "webcam initialization failed Please restart request and camera control.

  I scoured the advice forum and short of a return to the top and reboot disk HARD, I find no reasonable answer. I can't back up as I am away from home is out of the question. I need web conference call cam / call my family to the United Kingdom back.

  Tired of going round in circles and getting nowhere.

  Any suggestions?

  Even if you have not changed the settings in the BIOS, you must Access the BIOS to make sure that the webcam is turned on it!

  I also recommend the suite of this workaround:
  Uninstall the webcam software
  Uninstall the VAP
  Uninstall all software needed the webcam (Skype, etc...)
  Now, restart and install CCLeaner (cleaning of freeware software)
  Reboot once more.
  Run CCleaner and clean the system and the registry.
  Reset
  Now follow with installation of VAP
  Reset
  Install the webcam software
  Reset
  Test webcam.

  Good luck

• Satellite C650 - sound suddenly stopped working

  Hello.

  I bought this laptop the month last November.
  in any case, around a week or two ago, the noise suddenly would not work.

  He started making strange noises when I put in the headphones and speakers just made no noise at all never.
  I did a lot of weird things - like system restore, reinstall audio drivers but nothing worked until I updated the bios, then everything went well and the sound worked again.

  However, today, the sound suddenly stopped working again. I tried to re - install the current bios but InsydeFlash says: "the version of the ROM file is the same BIOS version" and just closes.

  I searched the internet for an older version of the bios, but when I try to install it, InsydeFlash said: 'the version of the ROM file is not newer than the version of the BIOS' and of course, I know that but then it closes too!

  I'm not really good at computers or anything, any help at all would be appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  I recommend checking some options first;
  -check if mute is not activated
  -check if all the volume controls are set to a higher value
  -check if the sound using headphones

  If this is not successful, you must reinstall the audio driver.
  First go to Device Manager and uninstall the audio driver. Restart the device
  Download the audio driver from the Toshiba page, then reinstall it. Reboot once again and test the sound.

• Speakers suddenly stopped working

  my sound has suddenly stopped working. After talking to a few knowledgeable people, I uninstalled the Realteck driver, and then I had to come its decent through the speakers! It is a HP desktop computer, a6750y

  Then I tried to re - install the driver. Although the pilot had the same name, it was more recent than previously on the system, so I re-installed and once more, no noise. So I uninstalled this version, but now I have no sound!

  I get sound through the headset.

  Here's what I installed, but it does not work.

  

  William, welcome to the forum.

  Did you check in "Control Panel / Sound" to make sure that your audio device is selected by default?  I had happened to me several times over the years. especially, if I made any changes to my computer.

  Please, click on "Thumbs Up +" if I helped you and click "Accept as Solution" If your problem is resolved.

• Satellite A50-110 suddenly stopped working

  Toshiba Satellite SA50-110 psa50e

  I have a Toshiba laptop, and suddenly it stopped working,

  I mean when it is, I only see a black screen with the letters

  N
  password = *.

  I don t know who did it, but there is nothing written in the manual, I tried the restore cd that came with the laptop.
  Nothing works at all; I even tried some backdoor passwords

  I opened the laptop but didn t find any type of battery, there is only one big battery.
  How looks like the bios battery?

  Hello

  Are you sure that it is a BIOS password?
  There are two possible passwords: password HARD drive and the BIOS password
  You are able to access the BIOS? You can access the BIOS by pressing the ESC key.

  Anyway, if this is a BIOS password then you will not be able to remove it without the help of ASP.
  The BIOS password can be removed like on the desktop PC! The procedure is different

  It s really strange that the laptop request a password if you didn t put, but as I said above, only the ASP could remove this password.

• Satellite A30 keyboard suddenly stopped working - how to remove and reinstall?

  Hi all, n00b to laptops and first post. OK, I usually build and repair desktop computers, so much easier to win the centimeters!
  My daughter turned on his laptop A30 last night and only 2 keys worked. Tried to restart and go into the BIOS but could not. Tried to start in safe mode, only the top and bottom of work therefore impossible to select Safe mode... doh. Guess it must be a harware issue.

  Restarted in Xp an open upward Notepad... this time, about 5 keys working. Reboot, 3 keys etc etc.

  How to cable Ribbon to make sure it is placed correctly. It is common for a keyboard to fail in this way and it is easy to get a replacement?
  At the mo, have all the screws that I know, battery removed, DVD rom and hard drive. Seems to be held towards the middle and the back. Don't want to force and break something else!

  TIA.

  Yes, it s very useful information and it s great fix you yourself.
  Nice work. Thank you

• Internal speakers Satellite C640 suddenly stopped working

  Hi friends,

  My satellite c640, internal speakers suddenly stopped working but works fine when the headphones or external sources are connected
  Is this a hardware problem?

  I m using win 7 64 bit and I tried to install the drivers but seems to be a hardware problem

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  I don't know if it is a hardware issue of m.
  You may need to check certain settings.

  In Control Panel-> sound-> the Read tab.
  You should see the speakers selected as the default device.
  You can also click these speakers to the right and you should see a few options:
  Speaker Setup
  test
  Disable
  and so on.

  Test the speaker first. In my case, a short tone is displayed. You can also mark the speaker and click the properties button. You will see a second window with tabs. Check the second tab called LEVEL. Here, you can change the sound level.

  What happen exactly when you try to reinstall the sound driver? You get errors?

• Satellite NB10T-to-10F - webcam suddenly stopped working

  Hello
  I got the laptop TOSHIBA SATELLITE NB10T-A-10F
  The web cam has suddenly stopped working
  I tried
  Updated bios even without result
  Here is the picture of Device Manager

  In various cases, the webcam can be enabled and disabled in the BIOS
  This option would typically appear in the BIOS under: Advanced-> System Configuration
  Please check this box.

  Otherwise, you need to know also that the webcam driver installation isn't necessary if you use the system Win 8 or 8.1 win because such driver is already part of the system.

  If the BIOS does not have the power option webcam (Advanced-> System Configuration) I would recommend you to retrieve the computer laptop back to the factory to check settings if possible hardware malfunction would be responsible for this issue.

• Satellite Pro L870 - Touch-pad suddenly stopped working

  Hi - the touchpad on my Satellite Pro L870 - 18G (Windows 8) has suddenly stopped working (after less than 2 months use of)-which makes the phone rather difficult to use. There is nothing wrong with the driver - according to the Device Manager, but I tried to reinstall when even (did not help).
  These things are not normally suddenly?

  Why device manager says that there is no problem when there is a very clear?

  Maybe the touchpad is disabled. Is there a any reaction when you use the FN + F5 key combination?

• Satellite L50Dt - A - touchpad suddenly stopped working

  Hello
  I'm not a part of L50Dt-A Satellite. PSKM2A. It is running Windows 8.1.

  Last night the touchpad suddenly stopped not working, no cursor on the screen.
  The little mouse on the touchpad indicator has not been and is not yet lit.
  So I pressed the Fn + F5 key so many times, but that didn't work back.

  I went to the mouse properties in Control Panel, and under the hardware, it is listed.
  In Device Manager, there is nothing under the mouse either.
  I went to the site of Toshiba and downloaded the driver for the touchpad.

  However, on installation, it says that this is impossible because the computer already has one.
  I need to uninstall and reinstall.
  However, I don't find the touchpad synaptics original anywhere to uninstall driver.

  Everything is updated via windows update and I ran the troubleshooting tools and that you have restarted, and so far, nothing has worked.

  I plugged in an external mouse so I can use it.
  But I'd like my touchpad mouse works again.

  Any help you can give me would be much appreciated.

  Thank you

  > Yesterday the touch pad suddenly stopped working...
  I ve never been faced with this problem, but try first to make back the OS to an earlier time using system restore just to see what will happen.

  In this whole thing that it is confusing that touchpad isn't listed in the Manager under the mouse devices and other pointing devices.

• Satellite L300 - Built In webcam suddenly stopped working

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L300 with a built-in USB 2.0 camera and a windows operating system 7, the camera suddenly stopped working for about 2-3 weeks ago with unknown reason!

  I tried the system restore, uninstall and reinstall the camera driver, preformed a complete analysis by kaspersky internet antivirus 2012 (updated) and I also ran a complete system and drivers troubleshooting... and the problem persists...

  When I use windows live movie maker it gives me an error saying: can t record audio or video of the selected camera. Make sure that the device you are trying to use is properly installed and not currently in use by another program.

  Some users here in the forum have reported a webcam problem and the reason for this was a loser between the cam module and the motherboard connection.

• Speakers have stopped working on the Satellite a series

  I have a laptop satellite - not sure what mono - speakers have stopped working and are unable to turn back.

  Have tried checking volumen and none controls mute buttons are slected. tested and it says ther no problem but still no sound. have uninstalled the driver and reinstalled - what else can I try?

  > have a portable satellite - not sure that we
  Roll on Notepad and check the label at the bottom of the unit. You will find the name of the laptop!

  > Speakers have stopped working on the Satellite a series
  Open the Device Manager and check if no yellow exclamation point appears. If you can see this yellow sigh perhaps the sound card driver is not installed correctly.

  In addition, please plug the headphones to your laptop and check if you can hear anything through the headphones.

• Satellite L300 suddenly stopped working - new motherboard needed

  My L300 Sat suddenly stopped working the other day.

  It kept freezing, then nothing. So I kill disked the HARD drive and tried to re - install Windows (XP).
  During the installation, he threw a message that some internal components had been installed incorrectly and has to be reinstalled.
  I was told to remove the memory cards and reposition the.

  It does not work. I thought that maybe the HARD drive was damaged, so I set up a new and started to reinstall Windows.
  Once again, same message. One of my colleagues at work suggested that the motherboard was probably U/S.

  So I've been trawling .net to find a replacement. Laptop computer out of warranty! I am told that some other mothers numbered series will work with this laptop. I really want to get a motherboard to find sound never go to work! My unit has a number of SPS to: V000138330.
  I am one with an SPS of offered: V000138390.

  Any ideas? This one will work?
  And if this is the case, it will give me the feature I used to enjoy?
  Sorry for the long history of sobbing.

  All the advice accepted with gratitude.

  Hello Andy

  Sorry, but can you tell us more about your laptop? What model do you have exactly (L300-xxx)?
  You have the European model?
  At your warranty valid for laptop?
  Maybe I've misunderstood something, but why you want to swap motherboard if the warranty is probably still valid?
