Satellite M30 - LCD white but the VGA output is ok

Hello

I have a Satalite M30-832, I got second hand. There is no output LCD, alough the lites back works.
VGA output connector works very well.
I reinstalled the video drivers and I have replaced the LCD screen, but still no joy.

My question is, if anyone can help,

1: what is a hardware (graphics chip) or a software problem.

2: Diagnistic tools are there on the disc support

Hi Simon

I have a question;
You said that your VGA port is ok.
You you connected the external monitor that laptop and have you checked if you can switch the display to the external monitor?
Please check if your external monitor works fine and if something appears on the second screen.

This procedure would be useful to know what's exactly wrong with your laptop.
If you would be able to connect the external monitor to the computer and the external monitor works then your graphics card is not faulty and the problem could be related to a defective laptop internal TFT screen.

Best regards

    Have used my laptop HP 2000 several times to connect to a TV screen using the VGA output jack and connect it to the VGA of my big screen input.  Now, for some reason, there is no video output on the big screen, I tried 3 different cords (VGA VGA) and get nothing on two and on the third, I get a video transfer but it flashes and both on the screen of the laptop and my big screen with only about 1/2 of a photo showing both.  When he does this, I tried the repositioning of the output on the computer output jack and he changed the picture a bit, but could never make it work.  Any ideas?

    Hi @badnarc,

    Thank you for visiting the Forums HP's Support and welcome. I looked into your problem on your laptop HP 2000 and connect a monitor or TV with a VGA cable. Here is a link to show you how do I connect a monitor. The last link in this document would be more useful.

    I'd be happy to help you if necessary. How can I find my model number or product number?

  • My HP photosmart 6510e all-in-one scanning pictures in black and white but the docs are still in color.

    Scan pictures into my a6683w HP Vista in black and white, but the documents still scan in color.

    Hello there ingridt, welcome to the Forums!

    I noticed your post on the scans of your Photosmart 6510, scan to your system from Vista in black and white. I want to offer my suggestions to you to see if they can help you with this.

    First of all, try to launch the HP print and Scan Doctor who is used to fix the printing and scanning problems. You choose the option "Scanning" when the tool is run. It will inform you if the software is completely installed, or if there is a problem, it can not correct. If it detects an error and shows you a red 'X', I suggest then uninstall and reinstall.

    Here are some links to help with uninstalling and reinstalling if you happen to do these steps.

    1. uninstalling the printer software

    2. restart your PC

    3 reinstall: Photosmart HP 6510 e-All-in-One Printer - B211a

    Try a scan now and let me know how make you out!

    Good luck!

  • Re: Satellite Z830 Ultrabook - blurred image on the vga output

    Hello

    I have a ultrabook Z830 i5 with 6 GB of ram. I run it on a double screen when I'm at work (computer laptop screen more VGA monitor). However, the VGA display is extremely poor and very "blurry".

    I checked the graphics card intel card drivers and all seems up-to-date (correct driver version), I tested the monitor with other laptops and everything seems fine. I also checked to make sure that the refresh rate is successfully set.

    On thing that I noticed is that since I rebuilt the laptop (to get rid of bloatware and maximize ssd space) the graphic score rose from 5.4 to 5.0. I wonder if I've left out a Toshiba key utility that provides the best VGA output?

    Appreciate any help!

    Thank you

    Hello

    In your case, I recommend you the native resolution of the external monitor and use this native resolution for external monitor. The use of wrong or not native resolution can cause blurry screen outings.

    Of course you should also test this with different external monitors

  • Satellite C660-2F7 - external display on TV via the VGA output

    Hello

    I try to view my laptop on an external device, but do not know if my laptop supports what I am trying to do. If anyone knows if I can do that or not, or if there is a work around, I would be very happy.
    I have a standard digital TV that I am trying to use it as an external display. I use the VGA out port on my C660 2f7.

    I have a VGA-to-AV/S-Video Converter (i.e. vga converts to yellow and S-video cables av red and black) and all ports are connected to the TV via a cable S-video to S-video and AV-to-AV cable. But the computer does not seem dectet anything. I tried 'Connect to a projector' and "Connect to an external device" on the Control Panel, as well as the equivielent keys shortcut, "duplicate them" and "extend". On 'Change the appearance of your displays' I put display to VGA. On "Graphics properties" Intel > General settings > display, I have only options "monitor" and "integrated display.

    And under "Graphics properties" > monitor/tv settings it says "monitor/tv settings are not supported." Does this mean that I can't do what I'm doing? and that my laptop only supports computer monitors and external display? If so, is there no work around that I can use with this or not?

    Thanks in advance.

    Your TV SCART port?
    In the past I ve tested some combinations using port s-video on my old laptop.

    What you can try is to find the cable VGA to SCART and check if it will help.

    Unfortunately, it's a little complicated.

  • Satellite M30 - how to replace the hinges?

    Hello!

    Has anyone replaced the hinges on Satellite M30? Any help or a link to a manual would be useful.

    Thnx!

    Hello

    Unfortunately, there is no manual maintenance on the page of Toshiba Europe. Only the authorized service provider got access to such manuals.

    I found this page:
    http://www.irisvista.com/tech/laptops/Toshiba_Satellite_M35/take_apart_notebook_1.htm

    But I put t know if it will be useful for you.
    Generally, I have to say that the replacement of hinges is not easy. It s really complicated because the laptop must be disassembled.
    You must remove the mask of the display first and then have to remove the LCD screen before you could see the hinges.

    To be honest I don't recommend trying to replace it with your own hand because you may damage other parts.
    I recommend a visit to a local technician for laptop and I would like to ask for help.

    If you want to risk this update check the specifications of the other portable Satellite M30. If you can find one with faster CPU, maybe it will work also on your laptop.

    But don not forget that the current CPU is tested in your laptop!

  • Satellite M30 does not show the connection of the battery after 5 min of use

    Hello

    My Satellite M30 recognize the battery when placed first in and for 5-10 minutes.
    After that the power meter shows I'm on sector without battery. Any advice?

    Anyone know if it is an issue that could be fixed with a new battery, or if it might have something to do with the connection between the battery and the laptop?

    Thank you very much
    g

    Hello

    If the AC adapter is plugged into the laptop that Toshiba Power saver should show a connected adapter. In this case the laptop must not run on battery!
    If you you unplug the adapter icon which appears in the taskbar should move from adapter to battery.

    One question; How old is your battery?
    Usually after several times the battery loses performance and it possible s you will be able to use the battery only for a few minutes. After this period, the battery is empty and needs to be recharged.

    Maybe your battery performance isn't the best right now and it should be replaced. ?:|
    This should be checked permanently.

  • Satellite U400 - can connect but the web pages are not displayed

    I have Toshiba Satellite U400 with Vista. I can't access the internet via the wireless network in my home.

    My computer connects with the network and the signal is excellent but Internet explorer is never able to display the web page. I followed the instructions to diagnose connection problems. I reset the network connection Windows network adapter, as suggested. He said while there still seems to be a problem with your connection, he tried a repair but the problem persists. He cannot communicate with the first DNS Server (212.77.192.59).

    My colleagues can access the internet with their computer, and I had no problem recently with connecting to other wireless networks in cafes and hotels.
    Can anyone help?

    Have you tried another browser like Firefox or have you only tried only Internet Explorer?

    You have DHCP or a static IP address? If you have DHCP make you you get the DNS server address automatically.
    If you have a static IP address, you must change the DNS address.

    In addition, you should try to update the driver for your laptop WiFi. See the Toshiba WLAN portal for an update:

  • Satellite A300D is runnig but the screen remains black

    Hello!

    I have a big problem with my Satellite A300D.

    This morning I forgot to connect my laptop to the net elec, and so my battery drains.
    When I reconnected and restarted my laptop I could see the Toshiba and splash screens of Windows, but after these the laptop screen becomes black.

    You can see the cursor, but the rest disappeared.
    The screen is all black.

    Strangely, when I press ctrl + alt + delete, the vista opens again, and I can select and view the Task Manager.

    What should I do!

    Hello

    There is a solution that could help bring back the screen.
    in Notepad, remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter.
    Wait about 30 minutes and reconnect the two parts.
    Then try again to put the laptop.

    In many cases, this procedure helped to set something like this.

    Good luck

  • Satellite C650 - black screen but the laptop is running

    A week ago I leave my laptop on charge all night. When I tried to turn on the morning you could hear the laptop to work but the screen was 'black', the loading screen was not visible.

    I don't use the laptop for a few days, thinking that he has beaten and when I turned on the laptop screen started loading upward. However, a few days later, when using my laptop for a fair bit of time, the screen started to Flash and then 3/4 of the screen went black. I always thought of my office in the rest of 1/4 of the screen.

    It is then resolved itself, but to be on the safe side, I close the bottom removed the battery, and now I'm running the mobile sector. So far no problem.

    Anyone know what could be the cause of the problem? I think it could be due to overheating, but I'm not sure, when I took it to PC world, the 1st time, the problem arose, the tech guy said that maybe my motherboard was gone and should probably replace.

    On this virtual path, we can only speculate what the problem maybe, but if guys tech says a word perhaps even though he was not 100% sure why this happens.

    These questions must be considered by the service and diagnostic tools. As long as it works correctly, it's OK.

  • Satellite A100 display empty but external vga works

    Hello
    my two-year old Satellite A100-847 screen has stopped working. I used the external VGA monitor for a few days,
    and then switched back to laptop computer LCD and discovered that it doesn't work. It shows nothing, only the gray backlight.
    The LCD does not work even at start-up in WIN XP, or AC or battery power. I tried to disassemble the screen according to some guide
    to check if the cable is firmly in his place in connection to the LCD, but it has not solved the problem.
    I use the original BIOS and the somewhat updated nvidia display driver, it worked fine until now, so I suggest this isn't a driver/bios problem.
    (but maybe that is it, so I tried to install the original display with no effect driver.) I don't want to try to Flash the new bios and meet up with Kiss to the top view and bios too)
    Video output for external monitor is quite well, start-up or in the victory.

    Everyone sees a solution, please? Or should I just go to the service provider...
    Thank you
    Pepe

    I think that it s a hardware problem of the display or the FL-inverter.
    The FL inverter is part hidden somewhere close to the screen.
    It controls the backlight of the display.

    So you should go to an ASP, they can order the parts and exchange it or looking to ebay for a complete display and Exchange yourself.

  • Satellite M30-604 freezes and the fan does not work after replacing

    Satellite SM30-604. Laptop has left the mat from one day to the next and overheated! Fan won't spin and laptop start only occasionally. Thinking that the fan was fault I replaced the fan but even this new fan doesn't spin. The heat sink is totally clean - dust free inside the fins at all. The laptop is only 2 years.

    Cooling using forced (by sticking a nozzle of aspiration to the output of the cooling fan!) the laptop starts sometimes as normal until the desktop screen with all of the usual icons and no error message. But then, it does not further - the freezing of the screen, keyboard and mouse.

    Most of the time it does not start at all. When it does not start, the blue LED lights up but there is no hard disk activity or LCD at all - even the wifi LED lights even.

    Really grateful if someone knows what's going on. You are not sure if it is the main processor that is defective?

    Thanks in advance.

    Charlie

    Hello, Charlie

    As you know on this path is not easy to give an accurate diagnosis, but according to your assignment, I guess there is a complex problem and unit must be properly verified. I also think that there must be a problem with the electronics.

    It is really possible that the motherboard needs to be replaced but, as I already said, it is not possible to say something specific about your problem. Try contacting Asp and you will see what they say.
