• Satellite P70 - Has: win 8.1: unknown device ACPI\TOS620A

  Hello

  I installed the Version of Enterprise 8.1 Win on my P70 - A Satellite. All devices in addition to ACPI\TOS620A\2 & DABA3FF & 2 are supported with the right drivers.

  Does anyone know which device is, for example the Bluetooth Driver?
  The Device Manager confirms that I have Bluetooth for Andoid, generic Bluetooth and Microsoft Bluetooth devices.

  I have downloaded bfdp - 20131011113844.zip and run the exe file. I wonder this exe is not shows something like "Installed successfully" or more.

  So I don't really know if Bluetooth is really installed and if Bluetooth is the question.

  Your
  Stephan.

  The ACPI\TOS620A unknown device seems to be related to a Toshiba HDD Protection Utility.
  Visit the page of the Toshiba UE driver and download the HDD Protection Utility released for Windows 8.1

• Satellite P70 - Has: noise sometimes whirring very fast is displayed

  My P70 - A Satellite, which is less a year since purchase sometimes emits a very fast whirring noise from the right side of the laptop that you are looking at him.

  It does not always happen, but it is becoming more common - it is more important to start.
  Something is obviously wrong — I believe that this has something to do with the cooling fan.

  I realized that the noise will disappear if you tilt the machine from front to back, but then when you place flat once again very high speed roar is still there.

  Someone at - it had a similar problem or have any suggestions?

  Thank you

  Hello

  On the right side of the computer, you can find the vents.
  This means that a module of cooling and fan is placed on this side.
  According to your information, noise whirring very fast (vibrations, maybe?) are produced by the cooling fan.

  In my opinion it of difficult to say if your cooling fan is malfunctioning because the noise of the fan will be always noticeable, especially if the laptop needs to be cooled.

• Satellite P70 - Has: monitor the profile not available/unable to define other profiles

  Hello.

  I have branch last week a new notebook from Toshiba (P70-A-11 (q) which has 8.1 Windows preinstalled on it.

  It seems that the device has a problem with the monitor profiles.
  When I look at the pictures on a unmanaged profile software, the images seem fine.
  Once I have import them to Lightroom or Photoshop, images get a yellow tint.

  That's what I see: left (Lightrom), right (Irfan) [dyed Yello | http://i1252.photobucket.com/albums/hh565/rockreactor/Clipboard05_zps092c5501.jpg]

  Unfortunately, I tried to add sRGB on my profiles but even after rebooting, I didn't see any change.
  From what I noticed the operating system doesn't have a defined profile at all before.

  I know that by selecting a profile sRGB is not a good solution and I should rather to calibrate my monitor.
  The question is why the profiles do not take any effect on my laptop screen, no matter which one I pick.
  Even there are some conflicts with the Intel display driver?

  Toshiba can support such a problem under warranty?
  I think that it is not my responsibility to get a screen totally not calibrated, or at least a portable computer without some suggested profile.

  Thanks in advance

  Hi mate
  > Toshiba can support such a problem under warranty?
  First of all guarantee covers any software problem. The warranty only covers hardware issues.
  But I don t think that this could be a software problem. I guess it's just a matter of settings.

  I recommend you to check if the option + use Windows display calibration "+ is activated."
  -Open the color management Panel.
  -Go to the Advanced tab.
  -Click on "change the system's default settings...". »
  -Go to the Advanced tab in color management - system default settings dialog box.
  -Turn on "Use Windows display calibration" and click Close.
  -Now go to the devices tab, change the profiles it and click on 'Set as default' as usual.

  You can also go through the built-in feature of Windows of calibration ("Calibrate display" button in the tab advanced)

• Satellite P70 - Has: USB HDD disconnects after Windows update 8.1

  Installed the windows 8.1 update last night, since my USB expansion which I use for backups of files story guard disassembly and reassembly.

  Have tried to uninstall the 3 USB drivers but they just reinstalled Microsoft even those - I can't see specific Toshiba USB drivers to download.

  Please can someone help?
  Thank you
  Sharon

  The USB 3.0 controller is Intel. But the USB 3.0 Intel driver was available only for Win 7. Since win 8 internal Microsoft USB 3.0 driver is used for all computers/laptops in the world.

  I have your case I would test different USB ports as part of different USB devices to check exactly if all devices and ports are affected.
  Probably there s no USB port number
  Perhaps the problem of compatibility between the new 8.1 Win and external device?

• East - Satellite 1130 has a wireless capability

  Hello

  I have a 1130 Satellite which seems to have wireless capability, but I don't know if he has an installed card.
  Can someone tell me how to say and offer advice on the type of acquisition card if he doesn't?

  I have a switch wireless on the left side, but go off to makes no difference, also have an icon wireless Fn (F8), which again seems to make no difference.
  I downloaded the user guide that shows the underside with a compartment for a socket wireless lan - what am I looking for here?

  Be nice to me and speak slowly!

  Thank you
  Mick

  Hello

  The WLan on the Satellite 1130 is optional.
  Some of the Satellite 1130 units were equipped with the internal LAN card minPCI and a few laptops were not equipped with a WLan card.

  If you want to know if your computer supports one then go to Device Manager and check the area to network adapters.
  Should there have listed a LAN and WLan card card (if available).

  See you soon

• Satellite 1410-604-BIOS update > update BIOS Incorrect in the web?

  Hi there again!

  Now with a new and strange issue.

  We all know that tell old... "If it does not break, don't fix it." And if you put in more computer terms, "especially if it's a BIOS.

  Yes, we all know that the BIOS is something quite dellitate to manage. For some reason, we normally feel as if we manage something like nitroglycerine, or radioactive products. And it's because we all know who is put at risk at the moment: our (or sometimes other) computer, the whole system could end up as dead as some pieces of metal, plastic and son.

  Well. I passed through all of this, more than 10 times in my life, and only once, it went wrong. But since this old motherboard was already dead, it was not important. But I've always been EXTREMELY care. Allways cross checked everything before you do anything, allways has a backup and a way to allways and restore that backup... I did COMPAQ systems, which have been prepared in this way. A BIOS update was about about a disc, turn on the PC with the disk in the floppy drive and wait. And if you don't like the results, you just click on 'back to a previus BIOS' and that was it... very nice. And easy.

  A few days ago a friend gave me a Toshiba Satellite 1410 604 to solve some problems that have been her crazy. After you remove a Norton Internet Security has expired, install avast and scan, I found more than a hundred of files infected with a variety of viruses, malware, trojans, and everything you could imagine. Avast all removed, but the rest of the operating system was so unstable that we decide to format it and install from scratch.

  I asked for the restore disks, which obviously it failed because they were lost in one of his trips. After that we had confirmation of Toshiba representatives there is no disk recovery available for this model, because it is too old, we decided to install from scratch like any other normal PC and resigned to losing some of the utilities accompanying that CD and are not available for download on the Web site.

  I downloaded all the software available for this model, including two updates to the BIOS. (In reality an update, but in two versions: Windows and traditional) and prepared a CD with all the drivers and programs as if it were a new system installation. And everything was fine, no problems at all. Until we arrived at the wireless LAN card, but that's another problem is already solved (the mini PCI card for the WLAN does not support the encriptación WEP or WAP, and it is not possible to connect to any LAN encripted wireless).

  At this point, and when I started setting up and activation of peripheral PCMCIA and USB devices (this computer only supports USB 1.1, 2.0 not) I discovered this text from Toshiba Web site:

  "This Bios update adds functionality to your system.
  (BIOS stands for Basic Input and Output System. This program is stored in a chip memory dead on the motherboard.
  When the computer comes on, the BIOS is launched to perform various functions to start.)

  For more detailed updated information, please refer to Information update BIOS Toshiba"

  Quite specific. Isn't?)

  According to the information in this Web site, the available BIOS fits the following models:

  "Satellite 2410 414, Satellite 1410, Satellite 1410 - 654S, Satellite 1410 814, Satellite 2410-303, Satellite 2410-304 s, Satellite 1410 354, 2410-601 Satellite, Satellite 1410-401, {color: #ff0000} * Satellite 1410 604 * {color}, Satellite 2410-404, Satellite 1410-301, Satellite 1410-304, Satellite 2410 S403, Satellite Pro 2100, Satellite 1410 S203, Satellite 2410-304, Satellite 1410 554, Satellite 1410 S102, Satellite 1410 - 354F, Satellite 2410 703, Satellite 1410-303, Satellite 2410 - S203, Satellite 1410-801, Satellite 2410 603, Satellite 1410-902.

  Yes... it's here!

  Now when you go into the "Toshiba BIOS update information", you get:

  "Ref. FAQ: TRO0000000b07.

  A BIOS update is a {color: #ff0000} * operation is relatively simple and can be done by computer more competent users * {color}. All BIOS updates can be obtained from "BIOS update" Section download click here...

  Note: the BIOS files are specific machine the correct BIOS for your machine should be used. »

  Please note that Toshiba does not disencourage BIOS manipulation, on the contrary: they even encourage people to do. It is not badly needed, but at the same time that they encourage people to 'play' with such a delicate question, at the end of this page, in small letters, they say:

  "Toshiba provides this information"as is"{color: #ff0000} * without warranty of any kind * {color}, explicit or implied, including, but not limited to, the implied warranties of quality market or adequacy has a specific use." Toshiba shall not be liable to the topicality, accuracy, completeness or quality of the information provided. {color: #ff0000} * Toshiba is not responsible for damage caused by the use of any information provided, including incomplete or incorrect information * {color}. »

  This should trigger yellow alarms in our minds.

  + "Human error is inherent in man, and it is not possible to eradicate. It will be displayed always, sooner or later"(Prof. James Reason). +

  And finally, I made the mistake. Although I have read this warning, I remembered all these successful BIOS update with COMPAQ and relied for Toshiba. This update was available there, and Toshiba told me that it was for this computer. Great!

  So finally, I disconnected all devices (USB), removed the PCMCIA (WLAN), plugged the battery charger to avoid any possible battery problem, restarted windows, and then Windows started the update (windows version, such as recommended by Toshiba). This drug looked very nice, nothing different from what I usually see on these old COMPAQs.

  As reported by the update program, the system would restart. And in fact he did.

  Windows normally closed (a little faster than normal, but without mistakes, and since there is no other programs that most - even the antivirus not working - no), the computer turned off, all lights (normal) offshore, and then again on...

  {color: #0000ff} * BEEEEEEEEEEEEP... BEEEP... ... BEEEEP * {color}

  OMG! I never movement something SO bad. 3-1-1!

  And now... What a 3-1-1 is here? Award BIOS would mean no card graphics or video deffective card, but it is not true, because it worked 20 seconds ago. There are BIOS.

  He never came again to life. He's still 3-1-1 beep.

  But now comes the investigation on the human factors involved in this accident.

  I found I committed the following errors:

  * (1) * rely in the constructor, even if they have WRITTEN their information may be incorrect or incomplete. (BAD if I was a detective QA & QC).

  * (2) * I cross checked deep enough (until it was already too late).

  * (3) * I haven't looked above for how to make a backup of the BIOS to restore must anything deceive you.

  * (4) * let Toshiba lead me to a path that I didn't walk, just because of their supply of 'increased functionality.

  * (5) * Beleave in Toshiba when they said "relatively simple operation and can be performed by the most competent computer users"... they never said it is infallible. "."

  Then I began the most interesting part of the investigation.

  {color: #0000ff} * "what went wrong?" * {color}

  Obviously, the update of the BIOS has not somewhere, somewhere. And I wanted to know what and where.

  First thing, I discovered that there is another Toshiba search engine called "askiris" ([http://askiris.toshiba.com]) and I looked to see if, for any chance I could get the old BIOS 1.20 version which was installed at the origin of this machine.

  And I found something... VERY interesting:

  GOOD! Or not?

  Let's take a look:

  First thing I did was download all four files.

  Then I took the same version that made the accident: 1.40

  I unzipped the file, which I found:

  And I got my first surprise here: there is a {color: #ff0000} * README. TXT * {color} that was not present in the file that I downloaded earlier from the repository of drivers.

  So I went the readme.txt and I found this:

  'README. CDC TXT 31/01/2003

  Please note that the model 1410-604 is * NOT * listed.

  I thought ' well, there must be another archive... ". »

  But then I realized a name that seems familiar, that is, in the directory where I unzipped this file 1.40, and the name is:

  {color: #0000ff} * 2410A9V140. EXE * {color}

  So I took the other file, the update of BIOS_Win, and I discovered that the name of the file is:

  * {color: #0000ff} 2410A9V140. EXE, {color} * (Ups!)

  So I once again, uncompressed to find:

  * {color: #ff0000} they have two 20 files and 1 046 461 bytes. I asumed that they are the SAME two folder {color} *.

  And the readme file does not list the model 1410-604 in its readme file, so I can't explain it except as a Toshiba error. * {color: #ff0000} they put an incorrect BIOS on their website and has proposed updating and somehow lead to such mistakes. {color} *.

  (Except in the case that one of these models is a name that is different from the model 1410-604, and if that's the case... now I don't know why this BIOS do not work with this computer).

  The worst thing is that neither the other files (V1.10, 1.20 and 1.30) lists the 1410-604, apparently so no solution possible workaround for this problem. I need an original v1.20 to the CMOS, and Toshiba seems to have. They offered me to solve the problem, leaving the laptop to an ASP, and pay only € 95 for the work and about € 280 for a motherboard replacement, I will get it resolved. But they offer no guarantees of their possibilities because is a model "too old" and "abandoned" and "unsupported"...

  In other words, they said 'you don't have to bother with it, just go and buy a new' (something of quite out of my reach in this time of crisis): P

  Thanks for reading so far.

  Now, what I need is to get ideas on a work around for this, my ideas are:

  (1) the CMOS has some startup that works (it allows a roll-back if you have the appropriate file). So I need a good BIOS to burn in the CMOS memory, the SAME SAME model (a backup BIOS) but the backup should be sufficient for the burning program (CHGBIOSA.COM).

  (2) it is always possible that the BIOS might be OK, but the CMOS data has been corrupted somehow. If so, the CMOS of compensation could solve problem. But I wasn't able to find a clear cmos from the outside button, and after disasembling I took battery, with no good result. I try to leave the MOBO without battery for a period more long (I left it about 20 seconds) just in case where 20 seconds are not all capacitors for well pass zero values. I don't have a lot of hope in this point.

  (3) try to get a REAL good update from Toshiba. I contacted technical support several times, and I was able to verify that they are only - phone operators, with a script in front of them, and when the problem is going - out of reach, they fall in the same response: "you must go to an ASP. I still have a faint hope to find someone who really knows a little and could illuminate with a good BIOS in this disc.

  (4) as far as I could find, this BIOS is not any BIOS-manufacturer known. It seems that it has been developed by Toshiba (own brand), so the Phoenix crisis recovery disk won't be of any help here. As well as any other BIOS recovery tool not designed for Toshiba BIOS. But I'm open to all ideas, which could be put to the test more or less safely. (Remember that the 'BIOS-BOOT-PART' feature still works, I don't want to lose that possibility alone of redemption).

  Wwwaaaaoooowww... what a falks long post! Sorry about that!

  Forgive me, but I wanted to be really clear.

  Someone give some tips or advice will be greatly appreciated.

  Please don't say that I shouldn't be doing... I already know that. I already did some research and found my mistakes, not to repeat them. Now, I need to spend, to move and to try to solve this problem, or at least learn to solve similar things. As much as possible.

  Thank you once again, in advance, and sorry again.

  Hi Fenix,

  Wow... He tooked a lot of time to read your post...

  Maybe I can help you.

  The Bios in the website is the right one. If you have downloaded the right version of the Bios.

  Toshiba America, which has most of the time the Askiris you used isn't accurate models for Toshiba Europe.
  This should be the reason, why does not the readme file contain the European model.

  I'll try to do an update of the fresh Bios using the update of the traditional Bios.

  Copy the files on the disk, put it in the floppy drive, press and hold power on the notebook tab.
  After that the laptop is off, press on and hold the key on the left side of space power on the laptop new bar and wait until it turns off again.

  If your laptop does not power perhaps the most, the RAM is default?

  Therefore, if the use of the traditional Bios or change memory doesn't help, and your laptop is still dead you should go to a SPA, but it will cost money.

  I now have my fourth Toshiba laptop and I had never problems with the Bios updates.

  The 1410 is very old I think, so before you go to a SPA, I'd buy a new ;)

  Best regards

  Maurice

• Satellite P70 - A - 07 T 040 - connection to LInksys 1900AC speed

  The specification for the P70 - A indicates a transmission speed of 300bps. Have you tried some drivers, but cannot raise the speed of 144 bps to 300bps, although an old PC on our network is automatically adjusted to 300bps when the Linksys has been implemented.

  Is there a specific Toshiba driver for this?

  > Lists of the specification for the P70 - has a transmission speed of 300bps

  You mean the wireless network and WiFi card?

  First of all various satellite P70 - A portable models support different hardware specifications. This means that the different WLan modules were built in the notebooks.

  It s I knew not which module Wlan has integrated this unit but its not very difficult to verify. You will find Wlan card details in the Device Manager.

  Second, most of the modules supports various standards Wi - Fi 802.11 B/G/N
  Each standard supports different connection speed.

  802 11 B 2.4 Ghz supports 1-11Mbit/s
  802.11 G 2.4 Ghz supports 6-54 Mbps
  802.11 N 2.4 Ghz or 5 GHz supports 72-600Mbit/s

  But beware: all these values are raw values!

  You should first check out what Wlan standard is used by the Wlan module.
  This can be checked in the Device Manager-> card Wlan-> properties-> Advanced tab.

  I guess that its already set to 802.11 N standard because you've reached 144Mbit/s
  So in this case you should also read this Wikipedia article on the 802.11 standards of N:
  http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11

  802.11n supports two wide channels: 20 MHz and 40 MHz.
  20 MHz supports 144.4 Mbit/s
  40 MHz supports 300 Mbps

• Adding a new SSD on Satellite P70-A-107

  Hello

  Recently bought a Toshiba Satellite P70-107-A. It has a 1 t HARD drive and another empty location where I can put another SSD or HARD disk.

  I already have orderedt an SSD (840 pro) and I think puts it in slot 1 with the system and put the 1 t HARD drive in slot 2. I created a usb media recovery with Recovery Media Creator Toshiva with the recovery of the computer image.

  My question is: can I just put the SSD in slot 1 and to boot via USB and make recovery directly on the SSD? The bios will recognize the SSD?

  I need to install any drivers for bios recognize the SSD?
  Also heard that it was necessary to activate the AHCI, but I don't see this option in the bios.

  Thank you.

  If you have the original recovery media, I think that everything should be OK.
  Only put the SSD and then install original recovery image. When it's all over and the operating system is installed properly, you can add second drive.

  When you put the new SSDS go to parameters of the BIOS, check if the SSD is recognized correctly, the value of the BIOS default settings and continue with the installation of the OS (original recovery image).
  Please post comments.

• Satellite L300D-01N - BIOS version original need

  Hello

  had a bad bios flash when you try to apply PSLC8-PSLE8-180 - WIN.exe (Ver 1.80, 10/27/2009) updated the bios of my Satellite L300D-01N, model # PSLC8C-01N019

  now, the unit does not come on at all - I'm trying to restore it to work but it is impossible to find a copy of the bios file updated (from the active windows self-extracting program Toshiba update bios) during installation
  (I tried to extract it on another pc that the portable original is a brick now but still no luck)

  I was able to confirm that I can get the system to the laptop using the CRC, but I need a copy of the * original * BIOS that came with these units so I can reflash.
  does anyone have a copy of the original bios this device before you apply this update (ver. 1.8 2009-10-27)?

  Please note that I was not myself tried this update of the BIOS, so I don't have a copy of the original anywhere.

  Can you send me a copy please?

  Thnaks a lot

  Hi lostboy77,

  BIOS reflash is possible only to an authorized service. If the BIOS update has filed, you can do nothing. :(

  I know it's hard to hear, but you must understand that the update of the BIOS is always somewhat risky and if it wasn t flashed correctly, your laptop won't boot any more. So it of not so easy a Windows Update

  Anyway, here you can get a quick and professional help:

• Wireless NIC fail: no network detected

  I have two identical HP Pavilion G7, portable product #B5Z56UA #ABA, execution of Windows 8. Two nights ago, one of them stopped detecting my local WiFi network. I have 5 other devices that continue to detect & use the network wireless without problem, including the same model. The WiFi light is white (not in airplane mode). Cable connection works fine, but I need WiFi to work on it. Here's what I've tried so far:

  1. performance of the built-in Troubleshooting Wizard.

  2. update the Atheros, disabled/enabled the device driver.

  3. several reboots.

  4 downloaded the latest MS patches & updates the BIOS.

  5 spent an hour on live chat with an HP technician last night... He was no help at all and only told me to do the things that I've done and then he left on me.

  6. even tried a system restore to a point 3 weeks before.

  7. restarted the router & checked its configuration to ensure it was not blocking access.

  8. open the back cover of the laptop in order to ensure that the Atheros NIC is properly connected.

  So I don't think it's a problem with the software or drivers. As I said, it simply does not detect local, even if my laptop WiFi networks identical can pick up signals from LAN 3 in my neighborhood. Please help, or I'll have to go back to the store.

  HP sent a new wireless card. Atheros... I got it less than 24 hours after they said they would send it! I am of course very pleased with the quick action. I installed the spare part and the WiFi works again. The problem was a bad wireless NIC

• Satellite P70-A01C in World of Warcraft frame rate is LOW

  Bought this laptop a few months as a game machine.

  Said he would go to more recent games with little drama, but I have problems with World of Warcraft. Even with a quad core processor, 16 GB of RAM and a 4 GB graphics card I sometimes 9-12 fps.

  This is usually when there is a lot of things, like during a raid, but, nevertheless, with these specs this computer must be able to manage. Normally I get around 80-90fps and I get similar on my desktop PC (quad core, 8 GB RAM, 2 GB graphics card).

  Suggestions as to how I might solve this problem?
  I always have the latest NVIDIA drivers installed and keep all the rest as well up-to-date.
  I wonder if I missed something!

  Thank you.

  _It sys: _
  + * Graphic * nVIDIA GeForce GT M 745 4 GB with Optimus and Intel® HD 4600 graphics card +.

  NVidia Optimus technology passes between the external graphics chip (nVidia) and including graphic internal to the CPU (Intel® HD Graphics 4600) in order to save power.

  In my opinion the slow pace could be related to the graphics chip that is used by this game. Maybe the game uses the graphics card Intel HD instead of GPU nVidia?

• Satellite C55 - Has - 1 L 0 does not start in Windows 8

  Hey guys.
  I hope you can help me a bit.
  I have a Toshiba Satellite C55 - has - 1 L 0 here and it does not start in Windows 8.

  I turn it on, the Toshiba start screen appears, and then I get a message on a black screen saying "media control" (failure) and after a little while "no boot device. Please restart.

  I checked the BiOS and it does not see the hard drive (said HARD drive - no) and even in the boot order list, I don't get a list with the DVD drive with the exact name, but for the HARD drive.
  I tried to do a recocery with the F12 key and get the list to choosw where I want to start but by selecting the disk hard does not work.

  So I thought I'd try a live distribution of linux to see where is my hard drive and back up my data (after some settings in the BIOS - boot CMS mode) but I can't find there too. (I have a file fstab and mtab, it would help if I posted it here?)
  Is my HARD drive broken? Can I try something else?

  Thank you very much!

  You are right. This issue should be fixed by the authorized service provider.
  Furthermore, why do some risk steps to check this problem, if the warranty is valid.
  Warranty will cover the repair costs.

  Addresses and phone numbers, you can find on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/generic/ASP_SUPPORT/

  Good luck.
