• Satellite Pro S500-14Z - how to access the BIOS?

  Hello

  on the Satellite Pro S500-14Z I can´t access the BIOS via F2 and can´t change the bootpriority through F12. By pressing F2 or F12 during startup, the S500 beeps and restarts. When you first start, I had access to the Bios and set the password and active supervisor module TPM. Since I have no access to the BIOS before Windows starts. Is there another key to access bios (I tried ESC, DEL, F1, INS) or how can I change the pw supervisor (I know my real password!) and disable the TPM?

  Thank you
  Karl

  Hi karlS_1,

  Normally you can access the BIOS if you press F2 before Windows starts. It works with an external keyboard?

  You can change some settings in the BIOS using Toshiba HWsetup. This tool is preinstalled on your laptop and you can change the order of boot with this tool.

• Satellite Pro A60 failed to connect to the network after the fashion watch

  Satellite Pro A60 running XP Home.

  When I close the lid it goes mode 5000mAh as set upwards. When I lift the lid, I find that I have to restart to re-establish the connection to the internet through the wireless router. When this happens other computers using the same router not disconnected.

  I've heard talk about this but I got lucky and on my Satellite WIFI connection works after minutes again. Have you tried to deactivate and activate the WLAN using FN + F8 key combination?

  Maybe after short toggle the WiFi works again.

• Satellite Pro C660 bricked by update of the BIOS that failed

  My sister asked me to update his laptop (Toshiba Satellite Pro C660-16N; The part number PSC0ME-01S00SEN) of Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit) of Windows 8 (64-bit).
  So I did.

  Then I went UK from Toshiba Web site to check if there are any drivers I had to install for Windows 8. The only one was an update of the BIOS (for BIOS v1.70). I don't know what was the previous BIOS version number.

  So I run the update application in Windows 8. Phoenix WinPhlash Technologies starts and then in the middle of the update, everything freezes.

  The trackpad would not move the cursor or anything like that. I had no choice but to disconnect the phone from the wall and remove the battery. The laptop is not under warranty.

  Of course, now it won't turn. It will beep once when I press the power button, but the system does not light. A few minutes later, it looks like one long beep and two short beeps. It then keeps repeating this sequence every two minutes "one long beep, 2 short beeps".

  I google and read the site after the blog after the post on the forum, but nothing works. Links to the software offered on these forums/blogs/Web sites in french are usually dead, so I can't try what they suggest.

  The most common solution is the Phoenix crisis recovery tool. I managed to download v1.0.0.4 which is supposed to allow me to make a bootable USB key. The version of this tool that I downloaded is supposed to be for a Lenovo ThinkPad X 200. I have the correct BIOS.rom to C660 Pro Satellite (I renamed BIOS.wph and copied to the appropriate folder).

  I followed all the instructions, but it doesn't seem to work. Some sites say if it happens, I have the wrong version of phlash16.exe. Some other sites say that HP Boot Disk USB Utility should be used, but I don't know how to use it.

  What I really need, is a definitive step by step foolproof guide to know what to do, with links to the files/tools to use for this model of laptop. I will follow this blindly (which I don't really understand what makes each step, I just do it with no understanding,) so if anyone can help me with this, please write a guide like an idiot!

  If anyone can help me with this, I appreciate it. I'm really in a difficult situation - I can't really afford to pay a Toshiba ASP to fix it, and I can't afford a new laptop certainly. But I also couldn't bring myself to tell my sister, ' it's broken, deal!

  Thanks in advance.

  Perhaps the last comment by the user * gansell1980 * could help you.
  Otherwise, you need help from the Toshiba authorized service if you reflash the BIOS ROM module provider

• Satellite Pro S500-10F: how to disable the fingerprint reader

  We just purchased a portable Satellite Pro S500-10 which has the fingerprint reader. Does anyone know how we can disable this facility of the laptop, we do not remove program only disable the installation.

  Thank you

  You can disable it in Device Manager. If it's not ideal, I guess you could send the laptop to an ASP to have the fingerprint reader physically disconnected.

• Satellite Pro L50 - a: how to replace the memory, HARD drive and battery

  I just uploaded 2 new video from Youtube on the L50 - A. Satellite Pro

  The first is a tear down showing how to replace the memory, hard drive and battery (you can also clean the fan if it detects overheating).

  http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=IG0lW7t92bI

  BTW why they made it so difficult to get just to the battery in this model?

  WARNING - proceed at your own risk and don't forget static precautions!

  Hope they help and if you have any questions let me know.

  + The message was edited: link has been removed ad channel may not +.

  Thanks for these videos. It may be useful to replace the memory, but I think that the owners of the laptop should not open the case. This may void the warranty.
  Be careful about this.

• Satellite Pro M40x-115: how to get the color seen on TV?

  Hello

  I would like to use my laptop (satellite pro M40x-115) as a DVD player. But when I connect my laptop to my TV, I get only a black and white display. I tried to solve this problem by installing the latest driver for my graphics card but it has not changed at all.

  How can I solve this?

  Greetz El Mariachi

  Hello

  Have you checked the graphics settings? The settings of the TV must be set to PAL (most of Europe).
  In addition, you should check your TV device if it s can receive the S-video signal.

• Satellite Pro C660-1JL - how to change the language of Windows 7?

  Hello

  I bought Toshiba preinstalled official Windows 7 Professional 64 service Pack 1. And I would like to change the language from German to the Russia.
  In accordance with the instructions of the microsoft home page I could not get the result. MUI Pack does not appear when you are looking for Windows updated (some other updates are available only, but not language pack)...

  What would you recommend how to fix this?
  Its Satellite Pro C660-1JL

  Hey,.

  > I bought Toshiba preinstalled official Windows 7 Professional 64 service Pack 1
  You can change the language on Windows 7 Professional t, this is possible on Windows 7 Enterprise (volume license) and Windows 7 Ultimate edition.

  So if you want another language, buy Windows 7 Ultimate or be happy with the current language of Windows 7 Professional. ;)

• Satellite Pro 6100: Bluetooth - how to connect the mobile phone

  I already have a satellite pro 6100 with the bluetooth software on. I tried to connect to my mobile phone without success. The problem seems to be with the laptop rather than the phone.
  How can I connect successfully. I have to update the new drivers? I bought it refurbished 3 years ago and I'm just getting round to the use of bluetooth!

  Well, the Bluetooth software has been installed on your laptop, BUT the question is:
  Your group has installed Bluetooth card?

  AFAIK the Bluetooth is an option available on this unit. You must check the Device Manager and check the bottom of the unit if the Bluetooth label has been placed.

  I think that you cannot connect your mobile phone because BT is not available.

• Satellite Pro M70-220 - how to start the Advanced Boot Menu

  Which key have to press on my Satellite Pro M70 - 220 starting Win XP, in order to enter the "Advanced Start Menu" - in other words, the menu that gives various boot options, such as safe, last good start Congiguration, start Windows Normal Mode, etc. ?

  On my old laptop Satellite 5105 - S702, it was the F8 key, but by pressing the F8 key on my M70 Pro does not bring up the 'Start Advanced Menu".

  The Advanced Start Menu came on its own a few days previously after an abnormal stop, so it seems that it does not exist on the M70 Pro.

  Thanks for any advice anyone has to offer.

  AlanCB

  Hello

  The Advanced Boot Menu can be reached by pressing the F8 key.
  It s a Windows menu basic and it s any laptop it is.
  It should work on all computers.

  Maybe you can not activate the Start Menu advanced because the Windows operating system is confused upward.

• Satellite Pro A100 PSAASE: How to get the FN keys work in Win XP

  Hey,.

  I bought the PSAASE Satellite Pro A100-00H004GR and killed Win Vista. Now it's Windows XP Pro!

  There is no Win XP Modem drivers on the Toshiba Page for this model, but I solved this problem by myself.
  But now my Fn keys/keyboard shortcut does not work and I have no idea what to do. I've tried Hotkey utility of the other models, but it does not work.

  No idea what to do now?

  Full Support of driver for each model would be great...

  Thank you

  Hi I found the usefulness of Toshiba Satellite Pro A100 PSAA3 shortcut keys.
  It is not the same series, but try to install it. Maybe it will work!

  Don t forget to also install the common Modules

• Satellite Pro U200-10I - how to disable the system at startup control upward?

  : x Hi,.

  I have Toshiba Satellite Pro U200-10I and I want to disable the control system, as it is a long time to start machine. Is there a way to Devil who?

  Nedd your help! : D

  Hello

  Just checking the system do you mean exactly?
  Is this based on Windows or BIOS based?

  If you mean the ScanDisk in Windows startup you can disable it in the registry:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Session Manager
  Change the BootExecute entry to: autocheck autochk *.

  After that restart the ScanDisk is disabled and doesn't appear at Windows startup.
