Satellite Pro L20 - no color on TV

Satellite Pro L20 PS25E with mobile Intel 915 video card is connected to the PAL TV and gives only bw image. Settings to PAL BG in the video card, yet only B & W photo. Other forums say this photo card ALWAYS give NTSC and cannot produce the PAL color. Is this true?

Hope that no, I bought three laptop computers of this type and was eager to connect to the TV in the House. Any help appreciated ;)

Hi retrieber_1,

Usually if you get only a black & white picture it's a wrong output setting of your laptop. I think that it s something wrong with the settings PAL and NTSC.
As a first step, you must update the display driver. Latest you can download from the Toshiba page driver.

And what cable you use for this connection? S-VHS cable?
If so try another cable. Use a cable of high quality, especially if you have a cable long enough.

    I found one for WiFi, but not for the Ethernet (cable/CAT).

    Hello

    Well, you can t find all the LAN for Win2000 drivers on the Toshiba page because this unit has been delivered and tested with the Windows Xp operating system.

  • What recovery CD to use with Satellite Pro L20?

    We have several Toshiba laptops in use in our society. I need to restore a (a Satellite Pro L20) to factory settings. However, although I have kept all the recovery CD, most of them have labels which do not mention which model they are intended to be used on. On some of them I wrote the model number on the label by hand, but I did not do that for the L20. I know from experience that if I receive the wrong recovery CD, I have to put dozens of drivers and utilities individually, in order to find the right one would save me a lot of time and stress.

    Each recovery CD has a number (for example GMR400626EN1), so it should be possible to identify the good CD of it, but I can't find the info on the Toshiba web site.

    Is there a list that corresponds to the reference numbers for the models of laptop recovery CD?

    Hello

    This info is certainly not available on the Toshiba support site. What you can try is to contact the partner of service authorized in your country. They have access to the database of Toshiba and I'm sure they can help you.

    If you need addresses and phone numbers please check https://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com support & downloads search for an ASP.

  • The Satellite Pro L20 L25 the same case?

    Fit cover laptop of Satellite Pro L20 to L25 Pro Satellite motherboard?

    I can't say for sure, but I think so.
    I guess L20 is European and WE must have a model L25.

    There is no big difference in General.
    What you should check are available ports. Make sure that both models have exact same ports and port openings.

    First post here, so please excuse the lack of local etiquette.

    My son has a Toshiba Satellite Pro L20 with a broken hinge base plate. I'm calling it a base plate that I can not find the name of the part anywhere on the web so far.

    Its obviously the metal plate on the basis that the hinge attaches to.
    You can see it if you remove the battery.

    Nobody knows what is this part and where I could possibly buy one?

  • Satellite Pro L20 does not illuminate

    Hope you can help. We have a 5 years satellite pro L20 who never gave a lot of days. It runs from Win XP, had an upgrade (crucial) memory to 2 GB and a new battery 4 years ago 4 years ago. 2 days ago, he simply left with the same noise you get when force a shutdown by holding the power button down. I tried to boot with no battery, just the sector and only on a charged battery. All to nothing does not.

    I then read the button of power with the battery and removed sector I did after leaving it overnight. When I replaced the battery it started as usual and lasted 30 seconds before turning off again, and then he was dead. I have tried all combinations with the ram up to 1 stick or kidnapped and attempted to get the bios with the HDD outside as well. Still nothing.

    I noticed that when I put the battery in 2 of the 3 flashes briefly, and now the button of pwer while pushing the battery causes a brief start 4 seconds.

    Any ideas as to what this may be? I suspect that the hardware and software. Also, I tried a different power adapter, once again no results. It stays just off.

    Thanks for any help...

    Hello

    I'm afraid it looks like a serious m hardware problem
    My first idea was a malfunction of the RAM in such a case, you could replace and test the memory, but it seems that you have already tried

    In my view there s something wrong with a motherboard or a part on the motherboard :(
    In this case I n t think a replacement of the motherboard would be useful since this part is very expensive

  • Satellite Pro L20 goes wrong with i.f. audio Fast Track USB

    Hello!

    I used my Fast Track USB on new Toshiba Satellite L40 and I never had any problems with it. I could put a low latency and I did a few songs with him.

    Yesterday, I bought another laptop, thinking of recording studio at home. He used the Toshiba Satellite Pro L20. It does not work with my interface. When I listen to music on Winamp or anything on Fruity Loops, I hear strong clicks, pop, noise. They introduce samples, or they appear during playback, or after a sample is stopped.

    I noticed, drivers for Satellite Pro L20 are a problem. Its not supported by Toshiba more? The only chipset drivers are old, and you can download em only from site Web from Toshiba. The chipset is ATI Xpress 200 M. Its pilots are with the graphics card. Recently I noticed that you can download "ATI Catalyst Legacy Display Driver for Windows XP - card mother/IGP Drivers 9.11" and CRACK to make it possible to install on a mobile device like the L20. Yep it's funny, but its impossible to do otherwise!

    things that I have tried and they have still not help:
    replacement of drivers #, original were released in 2004. I installed the version.
    driver settings #, low latency, high latency
    # asio and different settings
    pluging # USB interface to another.
    # try what happens when I use the battery and when to use the adapter
    # update BIOS
    # off units such as wifi, card sound card on board
    # checked IRQ list

    persistent organic pollutants will always appear.

    my config:

    Toshiba Satellite Pro L20
    Win XP Home SP3
    Celeron M 1, 5 GHz
    896 MB of ram
    M - Audio Fast Track USB, drivers: 6.0.2

    Kind regards

    Initially, I wonder that you use old notebook L20 now. You have no more L40?

    You must understand that the Satellite Pro L20 is older model laptop and also not the best choice for such operations. This laptop is probably designed for simpler day-to-day operations such as the internet, e-mail, office, a little bit of multimedia and that s all the.

    I don't mean good old classic doesn't work with your external device, but you will be lucky if someone has the same external device and the same model of laptop and write about their own experiences.

    Do you use factory settings or you have installed the own operating system?

  • What is the fastest processor, I could put in Satellite Pro L20

    It is a desperate help request!

    Football Manager 2010 will come out soon and my laptop should be at the height.
    I know that I need to upgrade because Football Manager 2009 almost killed it!

    At the moment I have Intel Celeron M 1.4ghz and 704 MB ram chip.

    What is the song the fastest I could put in that? I did some research and found that I have only 2 GB of ram

    The laptop is in perfect working order, so I don't want to buy a new one, just for fun he and its served me well over the last 4 years - I dropped it enough times! Just need to speed up a bit!

    Hmm... You want really old enough Satellite Pro L20? I mean new laptops are more so expensive and I doubt that you will get a solid performance with the new CPU gain.

    Anyway, in your notebook is only the preinstalled CPU pre-tested and nobody is able to say what other s CPU will run. But you should look on the specifications for other laptops Satellite Pro L20. If an another L20 is equipped with a faster processor, it should also work in yours. You can try it, but in the worst case, it will not work.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite Pro L20 - typed keys missing

    We have about 20 laptops, Satellite PRO L20 (model No. PSL2YE-00H00EG3), and all have this problem): keyboard missing from time to time a key is pressed. All keys are affected and the question is very worrying, given that you can have a miss every 20 letters typed.

    We have tried to update the BIOS to version 1.5 to version 1.8, but we had no success.

    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you

    Hello

    You said that this problem occurs from time to time. In this case, it would be possible that some 3rd applications have a bad influence on this keyboard as described in this announcement.

    You also suggested that you tried to upgrade the BIOS. Did you, or was it just a tent?

  • Satellite Pro L20 - looking for a better battery

    Hello
    You just bought a Satellite Pro L20, am a little disappointed at the time of the battery, I was wondering where to find the best/most long duration batteries for it, if there is such a thing?

    See you soon

    Max

    [Edited by: admin January 21 06 10:42]

    Hello

    Well, battery working time depends on the use of the laptop. The use of the high-performance notebook reduces the battery working time.
    In addition, you should check the watch tool Toshiba. There are different modes of battery that you can use. The right mode increases battery working time.

  • Satellite Pro L20-184: Question about upgrading CPU

    Hello
    I bought a Satellite Pro l20 184
    I can replace the Pentium M 735 2 MB of L2 cache processor
    FSB 400 1.7 GHz?

    concerning

    Hello Constantin

    The answer is that no, it is not possible to replace the processor in a Toshiba laptop. The processors used in laptops are connected to the motherboard using a process called TCP (tape carrier package). It is a method of permanent connection and is used in the interest of miniaturization and heat dissipation.

  • Satellite Pro L20: 37, 5 GB on the disk instead of 40 GB?

    I bought a satellite pro l20, which is supposed to have a 40 GB hard drive, but there only a hard drive Go 37.5. is there any reason its slightly smaller than its supposed to be?

    Hi Matt,

    The capacity of your hard drive is usually quoted as 40 GB because the actual capacity is measured in bytes. For GB 37.5, this would be equivalent to 37.5 X 1024 X 1024, which gives a figure of 39,321,600 (usually quoted as 40 GB).

    I use a 80 GB hard drive in my SA30 and gives a total output of 76,29 GB.

    It's just the way the hard drive industry cites the ability of their readers. :-)

    Kind regards

  • Blocking number on Satellite Pro L20 problem

    We have about 60 Satellite Pro L20s on a network. When the user starts the computer sometimes they start with the number lock on. Its seems to be worse on some than others. It is very annoying because it causes problems with logon.

    Is it possible to disable the locking function of the number on these laptops?

    Thank you

    I'm a bit confused. I thought that MS L20 has no Num Lock key.
    Is it may be on a green light below the F11 key?

  • Beep on Satellite Pro L20

    You just bought a new Satellite Pro L20 PSL25E-00K00CEN, less than 12 days old. He had these recurring short beep (1-2 sec), perhaps that every 20 minutes then maybe every hour. But no notification of what the beep wasn't on. Laptop works on current electric.

    No external device connected or disconnected. None of the obvious reasons. Beeps occur if I'm working on the laptop or not.
    Would be very grateful if anyone has similar problems and solutions?

    I even turned off "sound and notification" of the Panel, but never stopped beeping!

    Hello

    I don't know what could be the noise.
    The fact is that the beep occurs during the computer laptop startup procedure. It is usually a beep code. But this should not appear in the operating system and if the unit is running.
    However, this seems very strange. Your laptop is fairly new and the warranty is valid. You should ask the Toshiba service partner for review. Maybe he knows more about this strange event.

    Please post again if you will get more information.
