Satellite M70-239 - problems with brightness adjustment

Hello

I ve got this laptop from my father after I buyed a new. Actually everything´s with him very well. But one thing is a little strange, I think.
My old laptop and other portable that I had before, has the ability to control things like the brightness of the screen when you connect to load automatically. So not for this one. Nothing happens.

Windows doesn´t also shows the remaining battery life expectancy and other things like that. These functions are not supported by this guy? I ve installed the latest bios version 1.70, which is available on the official website and I m using Windows XP.

Someone at - it the same problem and is there a solution for this? Maybe you can help me.

welcome them

Hello

Satellite M70 was delivered with Windows XP edition family, and Windows XP Home typical configuration. I imagine that you have installed all Toshiba tools and utilities, so it must there also have preinstalled Toshiba Power saver.

He yiou can see profiles of different powers and each of them can be configured separately. Thus, when the laptop is connected to power notebook AC power will be the mode full power. There you can set LCD brightness to the maximum level.
When the laptop is on battery will then serve others power plan. Compare the settings in two power modes and choose your preferred settings.

Brightness level can also be changed with the key FN + F6/F7 combination.
Of course, this will works if all Toshiba tools and utilities are preinstalled.

    I put t know how help you buddy the point is that the graphics card driver that is available on the page of the Toshiba driver is modified for mobile use and its recommended by Toshiba.
    Usually, you use this driver to make sure that the correct feature for laptop.

    Of course, you can try to use the other graphics card drivers, but in some cases, different version could lead to small different questions: in this case > problem with brightness control.

    However, you can try to install the graphics driver AMD/ATI driver Toshiba UE page but check the driver released for other series of laptop. You might get a more recent version of the driver.

  • Problems with brightness adjustment

    Hello!

    I recently bought a new laptop with Windows 8 Pro. It's a Sony Vaio S Series, aged only two days.

    My eyes are very sensitive to light, so I kept the brightness on my old laptop less over time, but it won't let me change the brightness settings.

    I tried to change it on the charms of the bar, as well as the settings of the power plan and the Fn keys, but every time that I change it, it immediately self-aggrandizing ' adjusts to full intensity. I tried searching through the peak power plan settings, but cannot find the setting to turn off the automatic setting.

    He will show me he peut change brightness, but that he will not remain at the level I want for more than half a second.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi, Annie

    It seems that everyone wants to control the brightness on your computer, Windows, Sony, hardware, etc.

    Here are links to some tutorials with more information on how to do this.

    Screen brightness - adjust in Windows 8:
    http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/6041-screen-brightness-adjust-Windows-8-a.html

    Adaptive brightness - turn on or off in Windows 8:
    http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/6042-Adaptive-brightness-turn-off-Windows-8-a.html

    If you have this installed, it has a brightness adjustment of the automatic screen in the Vaio control center, look in the section view .

    Open Control Panel and select Power Options. On the left side, at the bottom of the screen, click the Windows Mobility Center .

    If none of these help, I would recommend that ask you this question on the Sony Support Forums. Someone may have found the magic options to solve this problem on your model.

  • Satellite C600/C660D - problems with WLAN connectivity

    Hi guys

    I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite C660/C660D laptop to replace my old. I set up a wireless connection at home too. According to my laptop and wireless connection that I am connected but when I go to use internet and try to search for something it won't let me. I ran the troubleshooting and Diagnostics over and over again and the message I get is "your computer seems to be correctly configured but the device or resource is unresponsive."

    It is not a problem with the internet connection that I tried to plug in on my old Toshiba laptop and it works perfectly well and my sister tried it also on his Sony laptop and no connection problems.

    Is there a setting that needs to be adjusted?
    I would be very grateful for any assistance with this and as I don't know what else to do. its starting to get a bit frustrating now

    Thank you

    It's very strange.
    Have you noticed the same thing using different browsers?
    You can use any other application like Skype or MSN?

    What you can try is to update WLAN driver.

    Please visit Toshiba s WLAN portal and install the latest driver for your WLAN card - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/

    Satellite M70 is very old model of laptop, so I presume that this HARD drive is not recognized correctly (compatibility issues) and that is the reason why cell phone starts with the start LAN to the search option.

  • Satellite Pro C850 - problems with WiFi after Windows update 8.1

    Hello

    I was wondering if someone could give some advice on a problem I have.

    Had an adjustable C850 Pro for a few months and worked well on Windows 8.
    I myself am then harassed and intimidated by Microsoft Update in order to install Windows 8.1 and in a moment of weakness, I succumbed (got sick of the nagging).

    Since that time, my wifi is very intermittent; either I'm on another computer write this and the laptop is essentially not connected to the internet.

    For some reason any (although I didn't try it before), I can not connect via ethernet either, so I think it's probably the driver problems. (I also tried to connect the public wifi but fails).

    I tried to install the driver WiFi Toshiba 8.1 but that has not solved the problem.
    Then I noticed that I'm supposed to install a bunch of drivers in the order.

    Maximum setting to do it, but the first package (associated with bluetooth) said I have to remove the current driver... I try by "turning off", then "Uninstall" but 8.1 seems to re - install automatically and I don't know how to disable this option (I can try to delete the driver file, I guess, but I'm sure 8.1 covered too and will probably launch a drone to try me out ", if I do). *

    Any kind soul there suggestions on a way forward? Pls.

    I see in the instructions of Toshiba Windows Update 8.1 should I have uninstalled the drivers before the update, but there is not much I can do about it now. :(

    Hello

    > I don't see in the instructions of Toshiba Windows Update 8.1 should I have uninstalled the drivers before the update, but there is not much I can do about it now
    All your problems with the Windows 8.1 update related to the fact that you have not upgraded the Windows 8.1 system as recommended by Toshiba.

    Details:
    http://www.Toshiba.EU/innovation/generic/windows8_1-message/

    Solution?
    Back to Windows 8 (reset the system back to factory settings)
    Then, install all updates and patches for Windows 8 and follow along with the upgrade of system as described on the Toshiba Windows 8.1 upgrade page

    On the page of the Toshiba UE driver, you will find all the instruments that must be installed in the correct order and Windows 8.1 driver!

  • Satellite C40D-C - problems with the system

    I recently bought an a toshiba satellite C40D-C Series notebook PC as my old satellite - essentially - is dying. After you connect to the internet, I tried to download AVG Antivirus on my computer that I don't have - and never - trust McAfee anti-virus that comes with the computer. Every time downloaded AVG then restart my computer, the computer goes directly into the automatic repair system and doesn't let me do anything but to reset or restore. This has happened even with completely removed McAfee. I've been on AVG directly today (January 15), and they have to do remote set-up for me - with the same results. Yes, I'm aware that McAfee is a selfish cry of a system and refuses to acknowledge any other antivirus, but that this issue happens even with completely removed McAfee shows clearly that it is something that Toshiba has worked in the system. I can't even disable the automatic repair tool. I have to be stuck with a McAfee antivirus which, moreover, does not yet or is Toshiba will make an effort to help solve a problem they caused?

    Why this computer isn't allowing AVG Antivirus work? And why, after each attempt to download AVG, the computer goes to auto repair whenever I shut down or restart? Is this a problem with the system or something, Toshiba has done on purpose?

  • Satellite P100-202: problems with screen again

    Hi all! I write about a problem with the screen of my Toshiba P100-202. I recently posted in the thread "Satellite P100-202: screen will freeze" and my current problem is actually quite similar to what is explained in the thread "Satellite P100-119: display no longer works. Here is my story, hoping someone can help me avoid having to send the computer to a technician:
    I decided after my previous problem, get my screen replaced. Everything seemed fine, except on the occaisonal instances, especially when I was using the "Internet Explorer" program, in which the screen sort of will re-start, IE. everything went black for a few seconds (music, etc. However would continue) then (boom) everything should reappear, sometimes in ultra - zoom for a second or two. The computer (OS = Windows 7) would report "problem with NVIDIA graphics driver", and then the operations would continue normally. This happened several times, but not often, and I was not too worried about it. Then, a few days before, I was using the latest release candidate of Internet Explorer 9 and the screen is blacked out and my music has continued and I thought 'OK, no problem' and then after a few seconds, and then the music stopped (and I thought ' uh - oh ') and then the blue screen of death.
    OK, don't panic, reboot, but of course there is no word of welcome, no nothing, just a blank screen, with the backlight still works created a worrisome greyish tint. And then suddenly the mouse appears, followed by the entire screen, so I unwisely rejected the incident. Ten minutes later, same thing and this time, not even the blue screen of death as consolement, just gray nothingness.
    A few days of rest, a dusting of battery, but no, even if I think the operating system works very well (caps lock light work and little purrs and snoring occur as usual), he has no doubt about the fact that the screen is not working.
    PS Sorry if my message is too long, and no, I don't have access to an external display!

    While I'm at it, someone is able to explain why a battery lasting 25 minutes can take several hours or even days to recharge?

    Post edited by: trrttrry

    Unfortunately I can not offer a final solution or diagnosis, but I think you should test the functionality with the original recovery image (recovery DVD) you have with your laptop.

    Install the OS using this disc and test functionality. If the same thing happen over and over again there must be a hardware problem.
    If you need to bring the laptop to the service ask first how much cost repair. Maybe it will be too expensive and you can buy the new laptop instead of paying lots of money to repair this old model of laptop.

  • Satellite P100-347 - problem with the judgment during the game

    I have a problem with my (pspa6e) Satellite P100-347

    After about 10 minutes of play time with games like battlefield 2, the SIMS2 and so on... my pc stops...
    I knew it was close because of high gpu or cpu temp...

    I felt that my laptop was warm, but after playing for a while its normal...

    So I installed HWmonitor to check my gpu, CPU and disk hard temp...

    That's what I show:

    THRM: 61.C - 141.F

    CPU: core0\1 - two 64.C - 147.F

    GPU: turn 85 stable - 90.C
    This normal use... no games...

    HARD DRIVE: 39.C

    Something must be wrong! GPU temp is too high?
    I tried a fresh install of the OS...

    Thnx for all the help and answers!

    Hmm these times can be a little high.

    Most likely there is dust in the radiator. You can use compressed air to remove it. Or as a miracle solution, blow into the vents dust closes in contrast to air circulation.

  • Satellite U500-17F: problems with the new HARD drive

    Hi everyone, I got some troubleshooting with my Satellite and a new drive, I bought recently, because that is already damaged because of too many bad sectors. One is a Western Digital Scorpio Black 320 Bg (WD3200BEKT model number). It should be a fast reader but is not with my Satellite.

    After having mounted the drive in the laptop, I ran a new installation (with full disk format} Windows 7 (64 bit) with all the necessary drivers (that I downloaded directly from the Page of Support Toshiba.)

    The problem is that the laptop needs a lot of time to start and also to disable, and whenever I try to run an application or start a program (for example Firefox, or just a few windows applications), the laptop freezes for about 30 to 60 seconds, the drive no longer works (you can hear leaders put in position 'parking' and the HDD LED control is constant) ", no lights flashing).

    It seems that the drive (during this 30-60 seconds) in something as a stand-by mode. I ran a few Western Digital diagnostic tools and the car looks all right to 100%. It works also without any problems in the other laptop (HP Pavilion DV6500). Could this be a problem with the controller (Intel ICH9M - E ATA AHCI controller) driver?

    Any suggestion?
    Thanx

    Hello

    You use the latest version of the BIOS?
    Please check if you need a BIOS update. Of course I read in a few discussions on the similar question of Win XP you use Win 7 but its value to check the update of the BIOS and U500 series.

    In addition, I recommend check you the power of Windows 7 options.
    Disable in the power profile that you use power saving HDD.

    Just a question:
    You use the option AHCI in the BIOS?
    As far as I know it of possible to use either a compatible SATA AHCI mode.
    AHCI must be used because this option would use full SATA performance.

    After a period of time (varies) my browsers stop to connect to internet.
    Skype works fine, as does my download manager and other internet services.

    I used this happens with all browsers (IE, Firefox and Chrome).

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Ry ~.

    Hi dude

    Skype works fine. Right?

    This means that the laptop is connected properly to the router and the internet connection has been established successfully.
    I think that a firewall can affect the functionality of the browser. Check the firewall settings.

    In addition you should check if other installed 3rd party tools to affect the functionality of the browser.
    Verify installed tools

    last but not least you could clean the operating system. Use the CCleaner.
