Satellite L850 - 14L - problem of catalyst & Webcam update to Win 8

Hello

I recently bought a Satellite L850 - 14L and installed windows 8 on it.

During the installation of windows 8 computer announced there where many problems;

-the catalyst control center was not compatible, so it does not work
-the webcam cannot be installed (webcam works but with scratches and bad quality)

After this I went to the site of toshiba and downloaded windows drivers 8 for this laptop also here the assistant driver told that there where several problems.

I can't recal all of them, but certainly also the problem of catalyst and webcam appeared.

Anyone have a solution I would like to fix without returning the laptop.

In fact I don't know if the webcam worked correctly on win 7 because I installed windows 8 directly after the purchase of the laptop.

Thanks for the help

Hello

You did a clean install of win 8 or move you from Win 7 to 8 Win?

During the upgrade to Windows 7 for win 8 Win 8 checks the pre-installed drivers and tools, and if certain parts are not win 8 compatible, you will receive a notification.
In this case, you need to remove/uninstall the incompatible elements.

Just one question: did you choose the upgrade wizard for the L850 right? You must choose L850 PSKDLE

  • Satellite L850-1HP not configure downloaded Windows Update files

    My laptop was having problems on the first day that first the CD-ROM not open, then the webcam and the microphone switch off forever and can not be turned on again never and finally, this summer, my computer laptop would not connect to any WIFI network at all, it will still fail.

    I went to the place where I bought it for support, they sent for repairs, a week later, I'll be back, it is restored back to factory settings, all seemed well, CD ROM functional... Webcam and microphone too.

    So I thought I would check around and start things tyding for my taste, and then I realize that I need to download updates from Windows Update, so I do it, on 100 + updates, I start to download, but they do not download until the 20th minute that it is stuck at 0% What seemed fishy to me, because then he just jumped up to 10% and progressed forward.

    After downloading the updates, or so he said she had, I restart the laptop in to get their working and configured properly.

    There can be no. After I clicked on restart, it began to close, saying it is to configure and to 20-30%, it restarts, and then he charged to the top of the screen, even saying that he configures updates, then he said that he failed and said it restore the data back to normal, that he never scare made.

    After about two hours of waiting so he could do nothing at all, I restart the PC, the same thing.

    Restart again but this time I restore things settings once more, takes me about 1 hour with a full erase of the data (of course the rest of the OS and toshiba apps too) all implemented naming stuff, and accept the terms and conditions, blah blah, operating system starts, I check everything and restart.

    After the reboot, I decide not to configure anything until I downloaded all the windows updates, so I do just that, BUT I get the same error again, sneaky - slow download of updates, restart and get the same message that it cannot configure updates and wait forever-long for the laptop to "restore" data back to normal which she didn't do, once again.

    I'm completely helpless as to what I should do, I restored factory once more but this time I'll just wait for some feedback or try to make everything I find on these forums it is useful.

    Help, please.

  • Satellite Pro L850 1DR - problems with Windows 7 update KB2887069

    I have problems to install the KB2887069 update.

    It seems to install OK... prompt me to restart... when I do it, says it configures... GETS to 7%, then starts rebooting... watch it configures again... up to 7 or 9%... and then reports it is defect and restoring... restarts again... and it is quite... not installed and reference to Windows Update confirms it failed.

    All the other updates I had installed today very well once I realised KB2887069 was the problem and failed to update.

    I am running Win 7 Prof Serv Pack 1 64 - bit on a Toshiba Satellite Pro L850 1DR. I use my AV Microsoft Security Essentials software.

    For now I had to hide the update... but all of the bright ideas how overcome the problem. I tried the Microsoft site, but there is still no answers who brought a solution for me.

    Thanks in anticipation!

    I googled around for KB2887069 update and it seems that you are not alone with this problem to Microsoft Update. I also found your request in the forum, Ms.

    In other words, that's not a problem of mobile by this must be resolved by Microsoft.

    I read in the MS forum on this issue and this issue is still under investigation.

  • Satellite L850 - display problems external 1080 p

    I did turn my laptop Satellite L850 via HDMI to an external monitor without problem for many months.

    A couple of weeks, I tried to update the catalyst driver and have had problems since.
    Basically now when I select mode 1080 p via the Catalyst Control Panel, it makes the screen flash and present vertical lines.

    Occasionally, it will work for a short time, even up to a full day and it will randomly start once again. I can play a game in 1080 p mode and it will be totally random, sometimes which allows me to play for hours without having the screen flashes black while the other times, it starts flashing constantly and the only way to fix it is to reboot or pull the HDMI cable and plug back and cross your fingers you have enough time to reopen the catalyst and change in 720 p which is always stable.

    I tried:

    1 using the AMD catalyst removal tool and resettlement through the catalyst of origin Toshiba drivers factory default
    2. use to restore the system to go back before I made the changes
    3 using the removal tool from AMD Catalyst and update to the latest version via the site Web of AMD.
    4 reinstall my chipset with #1 drivers
    5 tried another monitor (still happens)

    On a side note, whenever I use the removal tool it removes my USB drivers too and I have to reinstall.

    The current graphics driver is AMD Radeon HD 7670 M and I also tried the solution on here http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/item/781 tech support forum.

    I ran out of options other than a full format and reinstall I want to avoid if possible. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    The AMD Catalyst (control software) update would not solve the issue.
    You need to update the graphics driver too!
    The graphics card driver can be uninstalled in Device Manager!

    I found also this Toshiba document to similar topic which appeared after the phone woke from sleep mode.
    [After sleep mode, a distorted image or a split screen may be displayed: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB3903IB0000R01.htm]

    This problem was caused by the display AMD. V9.12.0.0 driver, which was automatically installed through the Windows Update feature.

  • Satellite A200-J01: problems with Chicony webcam with Yahoo messenger and MSN

    Dear friends

    I just bought a Satellite A200-J01 with Windows Vista Edition Home Premium pre-installed on it. My problem is when I want to use my webcam (Chicony USB built-in 2.00) to have a video call with MSN and Yahoo messenger Internet, suddenly, it stops working and it shows a message that the webcam is not connected and no webcam was found on your computer.

    And then when I log out Yahoo messenger, come out of her and run Camera Assistant Software it shows this message "Locked by another application" Although there is no other applications running.

    The problem remains, unless I restart the computer. I read all the topics and messages as in my case in this site, but none of them helped me. I want to know if someone has encountered this problem, if this chicony webcam is compatible with yahoo and msn messenger and finally what I can do about it.

    Hello

    What about software chicory and the driver update?
    Please check if the software most recent is available and has been released. If so, remove it the old an and after reboot the new install the most recent version of this software chicony.

    It seems that similar problems appear on laptops from different manufacturers that use the Chicony webcam.
    Everything looks like the chicony Vista software is not 100% compatible with MSN, yahoo Messenger, Skype etc programs.

  • Satellite A660 - boot problems USB after BIOS update

    Hello

    I own a Toshiba Satellite A660 and have recently updated the BIOS with the latest version (1.80). Since then, the laptop freezes on the splash screen (the one with the Toshiba logo) whenever a USB flash memory is attached.
    It works without the memory flash connected and if I connect it after I enter the starting or the BIOS Setup menu. I can even start her like that.
    As far as I'm concerned, this is a serious regression. Is there a way I can downgrade to the version of the BIOS, or any other way to solve this problem? I rely heavily on external USB drives.

    Kind regards
    Claudiu.

    Claudiu salvation,

    That is really interesting, I have to say so I tested on my new Satellite A660 and Transcend 4 GB USB Stick. Well, I also installed 1.80 BIOS but I can t view this problem HARD drive is set as first boot device and all the other BIOS settings are default. The Toshiba screen and Windows computer starts as usual.
    No problem at all!

    Have you tested different USB devices?

    In General, it is not possible to downgrade BIOS. It is possible to an authorized service because Toshiba on page you can download the latest version only but I doubt it s a bug in the new version of BIOS because it works on my A660.

  • Satellite L850 - 1 HR and Win7-cannot install Display Driver

    I reinstalled my laptop Toshiba Satellite L850 with old Windows 7. I installed all the necessary drivers. After you install the display driver in the device under display adapetrs Manager I see the message that the adapter is not working properly because the system cannot load the drivers.

    On Win7, it has also installed SP1. I don't see why drivers are not loaded correctly. Does anyone have an idea on what could be the problem?

    Hello

    The Satellite L850 - 1 hr is equipped with a graphics chip from ATI Radeon HD 7670 M
    I guess that the ATI driver is not installed correctly.

    On the page of the driver Toshiba UE especially in Satellite L850 PSKG8E area, I couldn't find the Win 7 driver download.
    But I checked the drivers available for all series of L850 and I found the AMD display drivers.

    You should do this too. Choose the series of satellites L850 (short model No. Select all) in the driver download the form and you will get all the available drivers for Win 7 and Win 8
    AMD display drivers should be included too.,.

  • Update drivers Catalyst for Satellite L850-150

    Hello

    I bought a Toshiba Satellite L850-150 (AMD Radeon HD M 7670) 3 days and I don't know if getting angry with AMD to restrict their pilots or Toshiba do not update their own pilots.

    Can you give me a technical reason for the manufacture of incompatible laptop with AMD generic drivers?

    I got an AMD Radeon HD M 7670 an AMD Radeon HD 7670 M in a Toshiba, in an ASUS, Acer, etc. If you make your laptop incompatible with other drivers, at least, maintain your own drivers updated.

    On this forum and also checking many other forums you will find hundreds of threads with the same question over and over again.
    It is well known that manufacturers of graphics don t mobile support units and this support is for manufacturers of laptop only.

    Technical reason?
    Can imagine you that you want to have more graphic and more performance by using more recent driver. One day you feel burnt graphics card. What do you think should be responsible for this and who should pay for the replacement of the motherboard?
