Satellite P500: no message "No items to select" after BIOS 3.1 update

• Satellite P500 - AutoPlay message

  I have a Sony memory card in my Satellite P500 dedicated to ReadyBoost. It seems to work very well, but there is a minor irritation.

  Quite often (= several times a day) an autorun message appears on the screen asking if I want to see the files on the card via Windows Explorer. I have not, of course, as there is only a single file ReadyBoost on the map. Message offers a range of automatic game options but these are content-music, pictures etc - but no car, so a memory card can not be identified.

  As I say, it's only a minor irritation but is anyone know how I can convince my machine this auto run does not apply to my memory card?

  Thank you very much
  David

  HomeGuard salvation,

  Have you tried another flash card? You can also use for example and for ReadyBoost SD cards too. The current map of memory may be defective
  Check this box!

  Last but not least, you can try updating the driver for the card reader. You can download the Toshiba site so it s worth a try!

  By the way: you may notice a performance using ReadyBoost gain? I tried but I couldn't t notice a big difference.

• Satellite P500 - 01 G-install the Toshiba software after clean install

  Hi all

  I have a Toshiba P500 - 01 G (http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/products/computers/satellite/p500/pspgsa-01g003/overview) running the grouped Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. I bought an upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate, but can not use it, he just tells me to use Windows Anytime Upgrade.

  However, I can use it for a clean install and I intend, but I don't know what to do on the Toshiba Software (http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/computers/satellite/p500/pspgsa-01g003/download?os=25).
  I read on another thread that the software must be installed in a certain order and frankly I have no idea! I don't want to break something! I'm not to ask for the list accurate for each of them (except if you have time) but just a general guide as to what I should install in the order.

  Also, I guess that my recovery partition is erased in the process and I can't get it back. Is this true?

  Thank you very much. I really appreciate it,
  Abraham.

  Hello, Abraham

  I m the Satellite P500 owner too and it's really great machine, isn t it? I like it. My Toshiba best ever.
  My machine is preinstalled original Toshiba recovery image and it works without any problems so I put t want to change anything.

  Back to your question. I assume that you have a few reasons why you want to use the Ultimate version then you should try to clean OS install. Before you anything create recovery DVDs. Make two copies.
  After that make what you can do with your laptop all you used to because if you want to have the factory settings, again you can use created the recovery disc and install original recovery image.
  After recovery of registered OS image will help and you will not be able to start the installation of HARD drive recovery then please create restore DVD.

  Installing Win7? I have the European model, and I will send exact installation order list. There may be small differences compared to the model of the AU, but the principle remains the same.

• Satellite A110-275: more a low-memory graphics card after BIOS 1.30 update

  Hello

  I am the owner of:
  Satellite A110-275
  Part number: PSAB0E-00T00TEN
  graphics card intel gma 945 up to 128 MB.

  Recently, I updated the bios of 1.20 to 1.30 and after reboot, I lost 64 megabytes of 'graphics card capabilities.
  After bios update, my computer is much lower. Why? How can one get 128 MB of memory on my intel gma 945?

  also s it is possible to manually change a file and configure gma 945 capacities up to 256 MB? I have a lot of ram and I could use it for games, now I can use only 8 to 64 MB.

  Concerning
  Piter

  Hello Pit

  I posted my opinion that I don't think there could be a problem in your second topic.
  As far as I know the laptop came with graphics card Intel shared memory. 8-128 MB of memory could be chosen.

  To my knowledge the Intel driver graphics card automatically controls the value of memory sheared. If need more than MB of graphics card memory so it will be assigned automatically.

  PS: In my opinion it is not possible to select 256 MB because the hardware does not support.

• Satellite A500-17 x - micro does not work after BIOS update

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A500-17 x which I have just updated the BIOS to version 2, as recommended by the tempro software. Now with the new update my microphone does not work. Where can I download a copy of the old BIOS?

  ({I used winphlash64 in advanced mode to restore the original backup, it does to the computer, but it just gives the new bios to}) Thank you rich

  Hello

  BIOS cannot be demoted in windows mode.
  Even if you use an older version of BIOS update, you will get an error message saying that the latest BIOS version is already installed. So, forget the downgrade.

  By the way: I put t think the update of the BIOS assigned the microphone.

  Go to control panel of-> sound-> recording tab.
  Here you will see all the available recording devices (micro)

  Activate the microphone it (in this case the people with reduced mobility) and set its default value.

  Where it works: reinstall the audio driver.

• Satellite A300-20 b - Touchpad does not work after BIOS update

  I've updated the BIOS on my Satellite A300-20 b latest version 2.00. Update succeeded, but when I rebooted system touchpad has stopped working.

  I tried to find the solution, resettled drivers (windows XP system). In the Windows Device Manager there is no problem with Synaptics PS/2 Port Touchpad, I see. Software Synaptics shows no problem I can enable and disable the touchpad, but it does not work for the touchpad. I tried Linux live CD and in this system does not work as good touchpad. I think there is problem in this version of the BIOS.

  Does anyone have the same problem?

  Hey Buddy,

  Have you tried to turn the touchpad on or off if you press FN + F9? Check this please!
  Also, try to load the default settings in the BIOS.

  What happens if you connect an external mouse to the laptop? It work?

  I can t imagine that the BIOS update causing this problem. If it doesn't work, you need to contact a service provider for help. They can check the touchpad and replace.

  Hello

  I A135-S7403, I know it's old, but well, I worked until I installed a new version of Bios (1.90 for Satellite A130 (PSAD0U/PSAD3U) on the official website of Toshiba (here: http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/modelContent.jsp?ct=DL&os=&category=&moid=1854878& rpn = PSAD0U & modelFilter = & SelCategorie = 3 & selFamily = 10 73768663).)

  It freezes on screen with red writing "in touch with tomorrow TOSHIBA" and I can't do anything.
  What should I do? And why this official update broke down my computer?

  Something has gone wrong with your update of the bios, this is why the Tower cannot start. Also, can you enter the Bios itself?

  But after the update, my CPU fan speed is faster then normal and make a lot of noise (even if the CPU is cool) when I use Windows 7 is still stay on fast speed making a lot of noise.

  Do we sort of degrading the BIOS or thw way to earn the slow CPU fan speed?

• Satellite A135-S2286 - USB ports does not work after BIOS update

  I recently had the dreaded BIOS password prompt problem. I checked online to the toshiba support site and took the laptop to a toshiba authorized service center and is fixed by getting the updated BIOS updated to 1.60, but after update BIOS, none of my USB ports work.

  When I connect a USB device, a warning from yellow pop up comes up unrecognized USB device. The same USB device works fine on other computers/laptops. I searched online for a solution and found on a lot of people have the same problem, but did not find any fix for this error.

  It will be useful, if someone has a solution for this error.

  Hey Buddy,

  Is there yellow exclamation marks in Device Manager next to USB ports or they appear correctly?

  If you notice a yellow exclamation you must remove the USB port and restart the computer. All USB ports are installed automatically, you do not need an additional driver.

  I hope that it helps :)

• Satellite L735-103: one key does not work after BIOS update

  Hello

  I got a Sat L735-103, part no: PSK0CE - 00N0OUEP and I download the bios for this pc, toshiba Web site.
  I have updated bios with no problem, but now a realization thatm a key (the key located in the good of "* f ' and 'z') of the keyboard does not work.
  I have a plate with windows and linux, and the result is the same.

  Maybey I need to go back to the old bios, but in the toshiba Web site only have a bios download: (.)

  Hello

  Somehow, I can't believe that this button malfunction has something to do with the new BIOS.
  Have you noticed the anomaly key immediately after the update of the BIOS?
  You have default BIOS? If not, access the BIOS by pressing F2 when starting the laptop.
  Here, you can set default BIOS and then save the changes.

  If this is not enough, I would recommend contacting the Toshiba ASP because the technician must check whether the button is defective. In this case, replace the keyboard. The technician would be able to downgrade the BIOS as well and could check if it of really a BIOS issue.

• Satellite P500 boot nor OS install

  Hello & lead greetings to all friends of the Forum.

  Please, could someone kindly look into this problem for me.

  My laptop, a Toshiba Satellite P500 is defective. It will boot after post and as soon as it reaches the "Starting Windows" (WIN 7) logo splash, it freezes and it will stay like that for hours. I changed the hard drive, the memory modules, I tried to reinstall the operating system, I tried to boot with a Linux Live CD, Live USB and DVD USB, but all help drive does not. I changed the BIOS configuration, and then reset to default, again without success.

  Don't you think it's a fault of MB, CPU or GPU?

  And someone has a suggested method of remedy?
  I thank you all in advance and will be happy to help anyone!

  Thanks again!

  Hello

  You have already replaced the common areas like the HARD drive and memory.
  It was my first idea of memory or the HARD drive may be affected, but if you are sure that the new parts are ok, then the problem might be related to the motherboard.

  Usually if the CPU would be affected, then the POSITION could not be transmitted correctly.
  So it seems that this motherboard you could go wrong function which means that the fix will be really expensive since the new motherboard is one of the expensive laptop parts

• Satellite Pro 440 CDT - message "the disk you selected is not ready."

  I have an old Satellite Pro 440 CDT with a CD drive (no floppy more) who plays the music well, but when I type and want to save to a cd, he comes up with the message "the disk you selected is not ready. Can anyone help, because really, I'm not an irritable type and need help.

• Satellite P500 - freezing when inactive, the his and other questions

  Hello

  I have a Satellite P500 (bought in January) with Windows 7 and I've always had and some problems with it since I bought it:

  -First of all, my serial number is not for the toshiba Web site, which is annoying when I want to update my drivers. In addition, automatic detection does not work. And when AI attempt to manually select the model, the only available is the "P500-1GN' (I'm sure that my model is just"P500").

  -Second, sometimes, when I don't touch my computer for a few minutes/hours, it freezes and I can't do anything on this subject, I just reboot it. Sometimes, I take just the mouse, the cursor still moves but I can't click on anything and 5 seconds later, the cursor hangs also. Another time, I was chatting on Skype (voice chat) without touch to the computer and when I will come back, the seams of frozen screen, I couldn't do anything with the keyboard or the mouse, but I could still chat with Skype.

  -Thirdly, I also have some problems of sound. When I listen to music and do nothing on the computer, no problem. But if I do something (like go on inernet, copiing files, etc...), I have some very annoying noise interference. I try with the speakers and headphones, it's the same thing.

  -Fourth, less annying, then the others. When I type a text on the keyboard, somethings, the cursor from writing just go somewhere random in the text (it happens twice while I was typing this message...).

  I tried to do a factory restore. Also, I have a version update of Avast, Spybot and Comodo Firewall, but I can not find the cause of these problems. I am wandering if I should ask for a replacement or something...

  So... can anyone help me? Thanks in advance.
  Oh and sorry for my bad English.

  Hello

  LOL: D didn't you notice that the Toshiba driver page contains the series of laptop and has no lists the unique laptop models?
  Satellite P500-1GN is a part of the series PSPGSE call with P500 PSPGSE

  > Second, sometimes, when I don't touch my computer for a few minutes/hours, it freezes and I can't do anything on this subject, I just reboot it.

  This may be related to different issues; problem in the system, memory problem, etc. graphics driver problem
  However, check the advice posted by Akuma; try disabling the USB selective suspension tuning"in the Advanced Power Options

  Update the audio driver is worth a try

  > Fourth, less annying, then the others. When I type a text on the keyboard, somethings, the cursor from writing just go somewhere random in the text (it happens twice while I was typing this message...).

  I had the same problem with the cursor, but it wasn't a really a problem. This is the reason why the cursor jumped around I touchpad the touchpad accidentally while typing.
