• Satellite P55W-B5318 - Wireless Signal to 4 bars only

  Hi - my wifi is often at 4 bars, but my other laptops have always been 5 bars.

  Is there something different onn the Toshiba?

  When I compare my two models of laptops Toshiba the situation is the same. 5 or 4 bars do not make big difference in my case. WLAN connectivity is stable and WLAN speed is very good.

  Is maybe the antenna WLAN from another manufacturer.

• Satellite L10 - B - Toshiba Service Station does not

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L10 - B with Windows 8.1, that I bought for my wife. Expiry of the additional phone support, and I need help.

  Since I bought the computer, I am wondering how to check updates from Toshiba. I finally found out there is a program called Toshiba Service Station that is supposed to automatically check for updates, but I've not yet seen this program, or notifications of him.

  I went looking for using the search function, and now I know where to find.

  Just today, I tried to manually check the updates of Toshiba using Toshiba Service Station, but it is coming up with an error message indicating that the program has not been initialized and I need to restart or reinstall the program. I tried to reinstall the program from the Web site, and I still get the same error message.

  Where to go from here?

  I currently have a different problem but with my Toshiba service station on my Toshiba laptop Satellite P70 - A laptop computer 8.1.

  I got when Windows 10 free update became available. Had improved to 10 Windows. I had some problems with my Toshiba since the upgrade. But I'll fix it in another thread.

  The problem I have is the Toshiba Service Station as well. I received an alert notification in the Notification Center of Toshiba Service Station. That there was some new updates to download and install. I opened the Toshiba Service Station. A click on the download button. Wait for the download progress bar of progress overall. But he did not download the download progress bar was not even download an update of size small file for one of the Intel drivers. I'm like waiting and waiting for the progress bar fill. But only see an inch of the bar filled. The update has more than 300 MB to download. My internet speed is fast. So I don't know what's taking so long to download.

  Please tell me what I need to do?

• Satellite A505-s6970: Toshiba Service Station does not work on Windows 7

  Hey guys I need your help,

  I installed windows 7 ultimate on my toshiba Satellite A505 s6970 and I downloaded all the drivers from http://www.csd.toshiba.com/ and I installed all.

  When I open the Device Manager, 3 devices are not installed (Base-2 system device / / 1-Unknown device).
  Then I installed toshiba service station (Windows Vista / 7 32-64 bit because my windows is 64) it will search for and automatically download all necessary devices, but it does not work on windows 7, it worked perfectly in windows vista.

  Also the eco utility does not work, and the media touch buttons work just fine, but without giving that voice tone.

  Thanks for your help

  Hello

  To be honest I have no experience with this tool.
  I m using Tempro.

  However, I guess that Toshiba service station was not tested and not designed for Win 7 at the moment.
  You may need to wait for the next update that works correctly with Windows 7.

  You must understand that the Windows 7 drivers have been released in Beta version, it would mean that the final version would be released in the near future
  In my opinion, you should take a look from time to time on the Toshiba page we.
  I noticed that each new day pilot is released and released.

• Satellite P850-12 - Toshiba Service Station error

  I have a portable Satellite P850-12 which is 2 months old. There has never been a fast computer, and now gas station gives me the error:
  Unhandled exception program!
  Source: Toshiba ServiceStation
  Message: The external component has thrown an exception.
  Target: Void Initialize Component()
  Inner exception: no

  (WHY are not copyable error messages so you don't have to type it all by going back to the error message?)

  Anyway, read on the forums, someone said to go on the site of Toshiba, redownload, uninstall, and then reinstall it from the download, which I did - still does not work.

  It tries to start when the laptop and it hangs for a long time before giving the error message. Dag that disappeared from Windows made an another update a few days ago that I had to uninstall, because he kept the computer to boot at all, so I think it's what pulled the TSS.

  Any ideas on how to make it work again and leave me alone? Thank you.

  It is well known that the original recovery image contains many specific Toshiba Toshiba and utility tools and also some additional applications and almost all of them starts with Windows. That is the reason why almost every new notebook Toshiba starts slowly.

  It can be changed. You must change the start option and disable some unnecessary services to startup with Windows. That s not a big deal.

  Return to your main problem: Toshiba Service Station. This software starts with Windows and inform you of software updates. To be honest, it is the first app that I removed from my system.
  In any case, what you can do is to try to reinstall. You have already done, but next time, after withdrawal of test system for clean using CCleaner registry entries.

  If there is the only way to get it working again is to reinstall the OS using HARD drive recovery option.
  In the end, I write again: it removes the system and the problem is solved. You don t he need at all.

• Satellite L850/0C9: Toshiba Service Station recommend bad BIOS update?

  I have a portable Satellite L850 - 0C9 and Toshiba Service Station recommended I install the new update of the BIOS that are marked "Satellite Pro update BIOS of C850 - v6.50.

  Should I install that is not the same model as my laptop
  If this is not the case, why gas station recommend that I install it?

  I guess it's your laptop and all the drivers and BIOS available for this model of laptop:
  http://www.MyToshiba.com.au/support/computers/satellite/l850/pskdla-0c900r/download

  The latest version of the BIOS is v6.50 and it seems to be the right one.
  C850 Pro seems belongs to the series even though maybe the BIOS is the same.

  However, the update of the BIOS is still a technique sensitive and from my point of view it is not really necessary if you n t s were a serious problems.

• Satellite C50B - lack of Service Station

  I have a brand new C50B Satellite and I can't find the gas station is supposed to be findable in will search and entering 'service station '. I said that it is not there.
  Anyone know how to find? I'm not in the US so it should be available for download, I can't, because the U.S. site does not recognize my serial number. THX

  You have the laptop model US?
  Can you please send name of full model of your laptop?

  By the way: If you got your laptop with OS preinstalled Toshiba all tools and utilities should be already preinstalled.

  Hi all

  I have question regardin my bluetooth and the motherboard.

  I can't turn on my bluetooth for the replacement of the motherboard. FN + F8 doesn't work and bluetooth stack reports ' bluetooth device is not ready ". reinstalled XP via orginal Toshiba CD-ROM. But does not help.

  I discovered something strange, is that in the software sis sandra 2005, my laptop is reconignezed by satellite A40 PSA40U. They replace the motherboard with an old model? This could be the reason why the bleutooth no longer works?

  Your help/advice is necessary. Thanks in advance

  Hi phyl

  As much as I know Satellite M40-114 doesn't have Bluetooth and I can't understand this before the replacement of the Board of Directors the Bluetooth system was on board. I know that the M40-193 has a Bluetooth.
  Please check this topic http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=5071. There is an interesting discussion on the M40 and Bluetooth.

• Satellite R850 - battery and the question of the burden

  I HAVE A TOSHIBA SATELLITE THAT I BOUGHT FROM AMAZON AND IS NOT GUARANTEED. COFFEE SPILLED ON IT WHILE I WAS DOING SOME WORK AND HE DIED.

  I LEFT DRY AND WHEN IT WAS LIT, HE WOULDN'T COME, I TOOK IT TO A STORE OF THE LOCAL COMPUTER WHERE IT WAS CLEANED AND TOLD ME TO GET A NEW BATTERY, BECAUSE THE BATTERY WAS BAD, SO I HAD A BATTERY ON EBAY.

  THIS TIME, THE PROBLEM WAS that HE CHARGE FOR a MINUTE AND THEN STOP TO LOAD. I DECIDED TO TRY THE BATTERY WITH THE LAPTOP AND FOUND SUPPORT FOR 2 MINUTES SAME AND OFF. THEN I CONCLUDED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS NOT THE BATTERY, BUT MAYBE THE MOTHERBOARD. BUT SINCE IT IS A NEW LAPTOP I WAS ADVISED TO JOIN THE TOSHIBA ONLINE FORUM, SO THAT I WILL BE DIRECTED TO WHERE THE PROBLEM WOULD BE SOLVED PERMANENTLY.

  PLEASE COULD ALL HELP. I WOULD BE VERY GRATEFUL...

  Thank you

  > BUT SINCE IT IS A NEW LAPTOP I WAS ADVISED TO JOIN THE TOSHIBA ONLINE FORUM, SO THAT I WILL BE DIRECTED TO WHERE THE PROBLEM WOULD BE SOLVED PERMANENTLY.

  What to say; the coffee spilled on the laptop and any fluid is not really good for an internal parts especially for the motherboard.

  I have no idea what part exactly damaged by spilled coffee, but it looks like a part of the motherboard is affected. Perhaps is the electronic power supply defective?

  I think that the laptop needs a verification and don t ask any technicians Nick fans because these guys just talk about possible problems.

  The device must be checked by a professional technician (service partner chartered Toshiba in your country) which has special tools and diagnostic software.

• Satellite C50-A-571-two questions about download Toshiba drivers

  Hello all, great day... How's doin?

  I'm new to this forum, it is good to will here hoping finds the solution to every problem we face

  My first question is: why download drivers of "http://www.toshibamea.com/" is so slow and limited or something? It never ends download, I have always the connection interrupted when trying to download a driver, are there not other mirrors or something?

  Second question:

  Why are there so many useless drivers? as I put all my preferences, product type, family, model, series, and he gave me 33 pilot and some of them are not the drivers for my laptop

  I have a portable Satellite C50-A-571

  Hello and welcome

  I m not an expert but I'll try to offer my responses.

  1.
  As far as I know page of media you use is offered for the Middle East and Arica. I don't know where is the server placed but the download should not be problematic. In the past, I've used several times to check drivers and everything was OK. Perhaps there is a problem with your Internet connection.
  Toshiba support and download page is certainly not limited and can be used whenever you want.

  2.
  I ve checked the download page and found 33 results for Win7 64 bit so I assume you want to install this version of Windows.
  In any case all the stuff listed are not just pilots, but also specific tools useful to Toshiba and utilities. This tools and utilities to control some useful special features as feature special keys or the HARD disk protection.

  I recommend install you all of them and just have a total control on your machine. Of course if you don't like or don't need some of them they can be disabled or removed from the system.

  I hope that my opinion is useful for you. If you have any other questions you are welcome.

• Satellite S50T-B - port HDMI questions

  Hi all...

  I hope you can help. I bought my new Satellite October last year and the first day I've known connection of an additional monitor problems. Initially I had an old monitor with a VGA connection, and of course this computer has only HDMI.

  So I bought an adapter, which did not work. I tried to connect my computer to the tv with the HDMI cable screen to test it, but it still doesn't work. It is still under warranty, so I sent it to the service of Toshiba, which couldn't find anything wrong with it and returned it to me.

  So I bought a new monitor (a BenQ) and a new HDMI cable. Indeed for some reason any he has worked for a couple of months.and isn't now. The computer does not detect the monitor and the monitor says there is no cable connected when I attach it to the computer.

  I tried everything and it drives me crazy.

  Hello

  The VGA-HDMI adapter will not work because HDMI provides digital signals and VGA (RGB) port supports analog signal. You cannot mix the two!

  In any case, go back to your HDMI problem.
  Please try this workaround:
  First of all go to BIOS (F2) and put back the default BIOS settings (F9) and save the changes (F10).
  Now connect the laptop and the TV with an HDMI cable. The two units must be OFF when connecting.
  Then turn on the monitor and then the laptop.

  AFAIK, you must use the function key: FN + F4 to switch to a display external or internal.

  Please check this!

• Satellite L650-11R - a few questions about this

  Hello there :-)

  I have a few questions about my new L650.

  I've never had Toshiba notebook before so I apologize if some of these "quirks" are actually quite normal on this laptop. I really want to hear the views of other users L650.

  1)
  First of all, by the time I turned it on I saw gradient thin (1-2 mm) along the right edge of the screen that goes from the bottom up. Maybe "degraded" isn't the right word, but it seems that since two or three pixels are kind of discoloration or lose brightness/sharpness to the edge along the straight bezel. It is not really that visible, looks like the colors are desaturated a bit here or brightness is a bit lacking. He can be seen everywhere (bios or no color in Windows, but better in the lighter background).
  The left side (or other) seems ok, all this along the right edge is somewhat suspicious. If one can compare? I don't know if it's something to worry about or is just supposed to be like that.

  2)
  The other thing I noticed heating of the processor (Intel i3 330M) and GPU (ATi Mobility Radeon 5650). It's pretty hot here right now (I would say that the temperature is around 28 degrees Celsius when using cell phones). He is sitting on the hard surface (table) and nothing is blocking the vents.
  However, at "rest" (surf the web & regular light stuff), average CPU temp hovers around 58 ° C. It usually goes from 45 to 62 in just a few minutes after starting, and then I can hear and see (Toshiba PC Health Monitor) evacuate the kicks in. Temp goes back to 50 +, event stops and then the temp rises to 60 + until the vent is used again.
  During load full (Prime95 or some games), CPU is going all the way up to 75 degrees (the highest being 77). Fan runs at 75 to 77% during this time, never go faster.

  GPU idling is usually around 5 degrees above temp CPU (62-65). During full load (for example. Benchmark of Far Cry 2), I see a lot of stuttering with the latest drivers Catalyst and DX10 (not sure if the stuttering has something to do with heat), otherwise it is ok (no artifacts or anything like that). Temp of GPU during the loading goes up to 74-75, fan speed is locked at 30%, the frequency of the heart 5650 is 450 MHz. left side of the laptop (vent and below) is pretty hot, while the keyboard is warm (or slightly warmer who who).

  These time seems correct and safe in the long term? I'd rather events works all the time (they aren't really very strong) and keeping time less than 50, but there are just wishful pious bios control events and I can't control not the bios. :-)

  3)
  This is just General related products. :-)
  Official specifications of Toshiba L650 say ATi 5650 (between other low range GPU), but I saw a few specifications calling for there 5730 (same model 11R). Is there really a Satellite L650 with ATi 5730 GPU models?

  Sorry for the long post, I tried to include the best possible description that I could do. :-)

  Thank you in advance.

  Thanks for the additional info!
