  • Satellite M50-165 memory upgrade problem

    Hello
    I realized that I bought a model that is only sold in Saudi Arabia. This is the model of Satellite M50-165. I want to improve the memory, I bought memory from EBAY who said it works in M50 sieries, but he did not.

    I read all the manuals in Toshiba, tried to contact by phone, they said that they do not have this model.

    in any case, I'd appreciate any help in that matter, as I am looking to upgrade the system to its full potential, I guess 2 Giga.

    This description of the model:

    Model name: Satellite M50-165
    Model PSM50E-0NX02JFC number
    MP 740/512 / 60 G 54/14WBT/DS2/LM/W
    Series No. 26271662 K

    It's memory, that I bought from EBAY dealer:
    http://CGI.eBay.com/WS/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120193991955&ru=http%3 A%2F%2Fsearch.ebay.com%3A80%2Fsearch%2Fsearch.dll% 3Ffrom %3 DR 40% 26_trksid %3 Dm 37% 26satitle %3 D 120193991 955% 26category0% 3D % 26fvi %3 D 1

    Please advice me!

    Hello

    you bought the bad RAM. You need DDR333/PC2700 memory for your machine (which is expandable to 2 GB). If you're lucky, then return/sell memory and buy a RAM with the specifications described above.

    If you still have some questions then just ask.

  • Satellite M50-228 - keyboard no longer works

    Hello

    I have a problem with my M50-228. When I type very fast, the keyboard stops working for 20-30 seconds. If I type slowly, there is no problem. I can reproduce this, hitting several very quick keys... then it stops to work for this time.

    Did someone knows if it is a hardware problem? The laptop is very recent.

    Thank you very much!

    Hello

    I can imagine that the HARD drive is occupied by other applications. Have you noticed that since the first day?

  • Satellite M50 157 keyboard won't answer once o/s (XP SP2) begins

    The keystrokes will just sound "beep" and nothing else. Any other fine (mouse, etc.).

    Yet, if I break during the boot sequence (via F2) I can navigate through the menus of the BIOS by using the keys on the keyboard.

    I do not have an external USB keyboard lying around, so I can't try it. I tried to uninstall and reinstall the keyboard driver (and indeed the sound card driver, in the case there some strange conflict between these).

    Best Regs,

    It looks like a keyboard problem. In most cases, the keyboard needs to be replaced

    One question; have you tried to reinstall the OS using the recovery CD?
    Maybe you should try it to ensure that it is not a software problem.

  • Satellite M50 - bad signs using the keyboard

    Help, please

    I have a purchased Satellite M50 year last by a parent in Australia working for Toshiba.
    Day 1 the key functions have been unpredictable, but I've learned to live with the problem.
    For example hitting @ (case 2) product key "and vice versa (upper case") produces @"
    Pressing Shift and 3 product £

    # is a product of the slash key reverse. Press the backslash key and product update ~
    Now, I have discovered that no combination of keys produces a backslash and this presented a problem with some software mods, that I wanted to achieve.

    Here is the keyboard language settings simply false.
    I guess your laptop keyboard settings are set to English of the United States or the United Kingdom, you will have to change.

    Go to control panel-> regional & -> language tab, the language-> details-> settings tab options

    Here you can change the language of the keyboard in English (Australia, New Zealand, etc...)

    Could recommend check several languages until the right singing will appear.

    Best regards and happy new year

  • Satellite M50-130 with keyboard problem

    When my Satellite M50 starts, typing in the password box is not a problem, the sound when I reach this point and try to type in word or in internet explore or play a game.
    The same key cannot be presses twice in a row. For example, to type WWW I must press W, wait a second, then press W again and so on, otherwise it only type 1 W.

    The same thing with all the keys and I can not play with the arrow keys as you can not, for example, not side twice in a game as I have the same m key in quick succession.

    Any ideas? Cheers, Jim

    Hello Jim

    My colleague from work the same As model of mobile and he uses it to Web design and type a few codes to our database. From time to time, I'm sitting near his office and several times I looked at what he do exactly. Believe me that there are no such problems.

    It is important to say that his book is preinstalled with recovery image and slightly modified for our enterprise security needs.

    Can you please tell us since when you noticed this problem with keyboard? Are you also using recovery image and have you ever tried to fix this somehow? Have you noticed any other strange questions about your Satellite phone as a disk busy, high utilization of the processor or something similar?

  • Satellite M30X - 165 Win XP Pro SP2 sound does not work

    Hello
    on my Satellite M30X 165 I simply get no sound output, if I look in Device Manager I see installed Realtek AC97 audio drivers but if I look at the Menu "Sounds and Audio devices" I see "No. Audio Device" in Control Panel, I use the Realtek drivers you can get from the Toshiba Homepage , the file is called sound-sm30-xp - 51005620.zip everyone has an idea? It's a freshly installed system not exceeding 4 Application installed at all (not even the bureau installed yet)

    If it's any help I have 2 unknown devices "PCI Flash Memory" and I don't know what it could be for I have no pcmcia cards connected and nothing more except Lan and mouse / keyboard.

    Noise appears on the recovery image installed Toshiba?

    If Yes, I assume that you have installed the operating system from the Microsoft CD and Toshiba drivers and utilities in the wrong order or some drivers are missing.

    But maybe the his doesn t appear due to the installation of SP2.
    I read in the Sp2 installation documentation (found on the Toshiba driver page) that maybe the Yamaha AC - XG driver sound 6.13.10.2152 must be installed.

    Anyway, please check this possibility.

  • Satellite M50 - A - ELAN touchpad has stopped working

    Hello

    My keyboard and touchpad no longer works out of nowhere (I think that it is after the update of windows?) and I can't seem to be able to fix it, I tried to reinstall the drivers for the touchpad and nothing has changed, as I could not find the drivers for the keyboard.

    can someone recommend me to do? I'm going crazy with this laptop!

    (The model is Satellite M50-A-118)

    Thanks for the comments.

  • Satellite M50 reboot - A - 11 c

    Hello
    Please help to reboot my laptop
    SATELLITE M50 - A - 11 C

  • Satellite M50 suddenly does not work

    I wonder if anyone can help?
    My Satellite M50 seems to have a number of very important issues:

    On booting, I hear a note very acute and rather than go automatically in Windows XP, I gives me a choice of F2 (Set Up) or F12 (Menu I think it is called). If I hit the button enter the noise goes and go into Windows XP as usual.

    However, I can't sound on the Satellite, either from a CD or a DVD inserted or a live video or
    audio clip. I checked the control panel and audio is not muted.

    Also, my 'e' character on the laptop does not register (press and no character comes on screen - I have to fix a new keyboard to the laptop to use the letter "e") BUT in Excel or when I put in a URL, I often get a complete line after the rank of the character "e" (without warning) that stops if I press the button "Esc".

    I don't know if I was infected by a virus (I have Avira AntiVir Personal) & Malaware programs on the laptop, but I would be grateful for any help on this problem.

    See you soon!

    Bryan

    Hello

    I think it s a keyboard problem.
    The sound that appears at the beginning of the startup procedure means that a hardware failure has been detected.
    In my opinion it s related to the keyboard, since you have no keyboard under Windows OS functionality.
    So I would get in touch with ASP in your country and to order a new keyboard for the replacement.

    Regarding the sound issue.
    I don't know what that might be, but actually the first step should be an update of the driver or a new installation.
    Check if there is no yellow/reclamation brand that reffers to the sound card!

    See you soon

  • Satellite M50 182 does not start

    Hello

    I have a Satellite M50-182.
    Since a few days I m faced a strange problem on my laptop.

    When I press the power button, it turns to blue light, as usual, I hear the fan for 2 seconds and after that the system stops immediately (I put t get any screen) and turns off.

    First I thought it might be a contact isolate but the same thing happens in battery mode. After several tests the system is in place, but it can take up to 5 minutes by pressing the power button.

    Y at - it an idea, that can cause this problem?
    Kind regards
    Philippe

    Hello!

    Try to remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter.
    Wait at least 30-40 minutes.
    Then connect the battery or the AC/DC adapter and try again.

    Otherwise, I'd go to a local ASP. I think that there is something wrong with the hardware (I think that CPU or the motherboard).

    Good bye

  • Seeing the drive DVD Satellite M50 does not turn OFF, CD/DVD drive don't read do not

    Hello

    I have a Satellite M50 - mx5 with a carpet * a DVD player. When I insert the CD or DVD, the player starts, turns the CD autour (the indicator light flashes)... but a few seconds later, the drive stops turning, but the DVD drive light is on.

    Windows also think that the DVD drive is empty.
    I also tried to boot Windows from the CD when the computer starts upward, but without success either.

    Ideas for what is wrong? Is my DVD drive broken?

    Thank you
    Eli

    Hello

    Sorry to said but in my opinion, drive is dead and that the replacement allows the reader features can save.

    But be aware that not every drive is supported and can be used with the laptop!
    Take a look in the user manual. Sometimes the compatible players are listed.
    And it s useful to know that all parts can be ordered from the ASP in your country.

    have a nice weekend ;)

  • Satellite A100-165; while typing the cursor jumps to the other place

    Hello

    When I write with the keyboard sometimes the cursor jumps to another location.
    Just this moment, he jumped at the entrance of 'topic' of wire.
    It's pretty random where he jumps but very annoying, I'm running a Toshiba satellite a100 165;

    Anyone got any ideas of what this could be?

    Hello

    I had the same problem
    I t has not noticed that I touched the surface of touchpad accidentally while typing.
    This is the reason why the cursor jumped.

    You can disable the touch pad using the FN + F9 key combination

    In addition the BIOS update would also be desirable.

    Good bye

  • Satellite M50 of power not recognized

    Hi all

    When I turn on my Satellite M50, it did not recognize my diet out and under voltage of the supply battery.
    There is no problem with the computer before hand and there is no change of hard/software recently.

    The LCD screen on the front indicators are all dark even with connected electrical output power.
    I tried to have disconnected and reconnected as well as using other sources of output, but in vain.

    Help, please.

    Hello

    You want to hear my personal suggestion?
    So I think that there are only two possibilities;
    The power adapter is faulty or there is something wrong with the motherboard power supply.

    But first the AC adapter should be checked.
