  Is it a problem of laptop computer profile, a hardware problem or a problem with the BIOS of the laptop?

  * This laptop has never been joined to a network environment. Only been used by one person for use at home or school.

  Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

  It's strange, but you should try to reinstall the laptop with the Toshiba recovery disc.

  Maybe you should first check the Toshiba website for a new driver and BIOS:

• Satellite Pro C850 keyboard does not work properly and opens several programs

  My satellite pro C850 1HE keyboard intermittently stops working correctly, and begins to open programs, for example, by pressing F will open the file search, C open computer this kind of thing

  is there a permanent solution to this problem?

  This is not something to do with installed programs is not something to do with the browser settings.
  restarting the computer works in a short time, but that is a long time, it's really annoying because I use this for work and study!

  > is there a permanent solution to this problem?

  The question is what causes this problem? Is it related hardware or software related issue?

  Why n t connect a USB keyboard just to check if the same would happen?

  In case the USB keyboard would work fine, I guess that the internal keyboard failures and the solution would be a simple replacement of the defective part.

• DVD sound on Satellite P100 is not working properly

  For some reason, my sound DVD (on Satellite P 100-186) no longer works correctly. The sound is ignored and scraping.

  It has worked before and I don't know when it has stopped working. Any thoughts?

  Hello

  Maybe an update of the rather could be useful. But when you do, you should look at www.realtek.com for the manufacturer of the sound card driver.
  And you should seek the latest codecs which are probably most of the problems if it is not installed correctly. Maybe you need to install the codec pack k - lite (http://www.free-codecs.com/download/K_Lite_Codec_Pack.htm) which is really good and covering the most need of codecs.

• 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.

  ANDY-N

  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?

• Satellite L650 is not working properly

  Hello, so I bought toshiba satellite about 4 years ago. A few months ago, I spoke with my sister on SKype and suddenly everything crashed, so I tried CTRL + ALT + DEL as usual in a situation like this, but I did not work so I had to turn off manually. Then when I tried your turn on again the system has been loading for a long period of time and finally charged after 6 hours. I wanted to open Skype, but there was just a blank white page instead of Skype. After a few minutes, I realize that all microsoft programs work (Excel, Word, Power Point).

  I couldn't write anything in word and I didn't have the toolbar in one of the above programs. I managed to talk with my sister on facebook, Skype, but I have another problem occurred. Just after I turned on my laptop and when I open the web browser for the first time that it overwrites on the first web page and I need to close the web browser turn new and then it works. Two days ago my web browser began to crash more often and now I don't know what to do with it. I have tried factory reset, but for some reason, pressing '0' key did not work at all, I hear the beep, but then the system just load normally. I don't know if I can do the factory via bios reset and I don't know what to do with...

  My laptop model is Toshiba Satellite L650-1MC.
  Appreciate your help.

  On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is here. I recommend to save al your data and try to install the original recovery image. Please ry with F8 at startup.

• Satellite M70 does not work properly with external monitors

  Hello

  My Satellite M70 has problems with a couple of monitors and projectors.

  When I connect to another manufacturer (model AL1721) monitor, the screen remains black, if I connect to another monitor manufacturers (model AL1716) everything works fine.
  If I connect a projector there also is a black screen.

  At first everything worked fine, I had a monitor AL1721 who worked, and 1 day it no longer works. I reinstalled windows, updated video card drivers, but it still does not work.
  anyone an idea why?

  Hello

  How do you connect the monitors and the projector? with an analog or a digital (with adapter) cable to the screen?

  Another question: when you connect your AL1721/Beamer and turn on the machine, you can see the Toshiba logo or something else. Is the error just that occur in windows or the "DOS" screen, too?

  BTW. have you reinstalled with recovery or separated from an original disc of Microsoft windows and the drivers you have installed?

  Questions about the question that could be answered by your help me to help you. ;)

  ===========================================

  Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded
  on your system. For each driver in the list, additional useful information is
  Poster: load address of the driver, description, version, product name,.
  company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit Maker as replacements and system manufacturer of device which are
  the most recent. Control Panel - write - graphics card - device manager
  the brand and complete model of your video card - double click - tab of the driver-
  Note the version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this can do nothing
  MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
  This will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard
  If there are 3rd party with their own software and drivers and the other main device drivers
  you have.

  Now, go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restore)
  and site (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get the manufacturer and device
  their latest versions. (Look for the system to update the BIOS, Chipset and software updates
  Site of the manufacturer here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN -.
  REBOOT after each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you are
  installation actually appears. This is because that some rollback of drivers before the
  later is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a driver - reboot.
  Make sure that it is installed and repeat if necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW to the device makers DO NOT RUN THEIR
  SCANNER - check manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

  Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using
  the above methods is preferable to ensure the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system
  and device manufacturers are located)
  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable driver facilities
  in the updates of Windows, which leaves on Windows updates, but it will not be installed
  pilots who are generally older and cause problems. If updates provides a new
  driver then hide it (right click on it) and then go get new ones manually if
  you want.

  your antivirus, the main drivers and BIOS update programs and also to solve problems
  with the first method cleanboot.
