Satellite Pro L500 used to cranking up what I type

I have a Satellite Pro L500, and it has never worked properly since I got it.
Sometimes it starts up but more that it doesn't start until I got hit around the keyboard. Is there a flaw in the L500? It seems to me that there is a loose connection or joint somewhere dry and it takes a tap to get the contact to rework.

Apart from that it works OK.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I m wondering you contact your local dealer when you saw there's some problem and try new notebook.
I don't know what the problem is here, but I guess you're right about bad connection. Contact the nearest service Toshiba to check your laptop.

Laptop warranty valid and service shall ensure this topic.
Do not touch anything or try to take it apart yourself. It can cancel the warranty.

  • Re: Satellite Pro L500-196: what drivers for Windows XP

    Hi all!

    I just bought a satellite Pro L500-196 that comes with installed Windows7.

    However for the use of the older software I need for my work, I want to install Windows XP from my old laptop.
    I want to configure a dual-boot environment, so I use Win7 for most of the time, but be able to boot XP, whenever I need to.

    The support page for this model lists 96 drivers for Windows XP for this model.
    Which of these drivers do I need?
    And there at - it instructions in the order in which to install them? Or can I download/order a cd (or cd-image) with all the drivers for Windows XP

    As far as I know, after you install Windows XP on a second partition, I need a DVD of Windows7 installation to fix the boot manager.
    Otherwise WinXP sill only start.
    My laptop came without such a DVD, there is just a recovery partition.
    Is it possible to use recovery system to make Win7 start again or do I really need a DVD of Win7?

    Thanks in advance,
    Jürgen from Germany

    > The support page for this model lists 96 drivers for Windows XP for this model.
    > Which of these drivers do I need?
    There is no required special installation order
    But I would start with common as drivers:
    Display driver, driver LAN, Wlan driver, Modem driver, card reader controller, driver for the touchpad, etc..

    The driver control must be installed before the controls (utility).
    Try it simply.

    > As far as I know, after you install Windows XP on a second partition, I need a DVD of Windows7 installation to fix the boot manager.
    This is right. I had the same problem with Vista and the boot Vista DVD to repair the Vista Boot Manager

    > Is it possible to use recovery system to make Win7 start again or do I really need a DVD of Win7?
    Not because it s not the same thing.
    The recovery image will format the HARD drive and partitions and will delete the installed Win XP.

  • Missing drivers for my Satellite Pro L500

    My Satellite Pro L500 plays! Device Manager tells me I have problems (where I write on a different laptop).

    I will list what are the problems, and I hope someone can tell me that I might need drivers.

    (a) PTL Realtek 8101 Family PCI - E Fast Ethernet NIC (DDIS60). He asks for the installation disc. I don't have one with the laptop, I don't have a restore disc, I did. Will it be OK?
    (b) SM-Buscontroller (code 28) no driver
    (c) not configured correctly (code 1) Controller network.

    These words are just as they appear when I click the yellow triangle.
    Can someone help me solve the problem?

    The Web camera integrated on my Satellite Pro L500 stopped working with the following message:
    C:\Program Files (x 86) \Toshiba\Toshiba Web Camera Application\TWebCamera.exe

    The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe for more details.
    The event log points to microsoft.vc80.openMP.

    Could someone tell me please how to fix the web camera. I use it very rarely, so I don't know exactly when it has stopped working.
    Thank you.

    Hey,.

    What do you think about reinstalling the webcam software? Maybe it will work

    Please see the Toshiba driver download page:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    Just search your laptop model and the available downloads. If you find it, download the new Camera Assistant Software but before you install it, first remove the old version and restart your computer.

  • Satellite Pro L500 does not burn DVD

    I have TWO laptops Satellite Pro L500 with a TSSTCorp TS-L633C DVD - RW. BOTH have the same problem - burn a DVD fails during the finalization process, regardless of how fast you burn at.

    Burn the CD works fine.

    Burn fine blank DVDs on a laptop Satellite L500D using the HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GT20N drive, as well as on an another Satellite Pro L500 which is to use a Pioneer drive.

    Two laptop computers with problems are ongoing running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit, but nothing else than the software that came with the laptop. Both are new straight out of the box. Driver is the current version driver, from what I can find.

    Any suggestions? When a laptop has shown problems, I thought that maybe it's the reader, but now 2 notebooks of totally different stores showing exactly the same problem?

    Thank you.

  • On the Satellite Pro L500 - 1 6 vibrating screen

    I have a Satellite Pro L500 - 1 6, operting system is windows 7.
    Since I bought the laptop I've known vibration of the screen.
    The problem is more acute when I'm running java on firefox and then open a program like Outlook and try to use the drop-down list box to select a contact.
    When I do this, the Outlook screen vibrates madly and it is impossible to stop unless I close the program firefox.
    There are occasions when this happens without firefox being open.

    The graphics card is an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4600 Series
    I'm on version 8.634.1.0 driver.

    I tried to upgrade the display driver via the ATI Web site, but it cannot be updated because it requires a driver of Toshiba and one on my machine is the most recent available.

    I disabled the Aero Glass effects, but it did not work.

    If anyone can help?

    Hello

    > I tried to upgrade the display driver via the ATI Web site, but it cannot be updated because it requires a driver of Toshiba and one on my machine is the most recent available.

    The Ati drivers are not pre-tested by Toshiba and do not have protection against overheating. Thus, it is not recommended even trying to install.

    > When I do this, the Outlook screen vibrates madly and it is impossible to stop unless I close the firefox program

    Have you tried updating the version of Firefox or switch to opera?

    It is a bit difficult, say what is happening to your laptop, but it seems that the software related problems. I do not own satellite Pro L500, let's wait what others may suggest

  • Satellite Pro L500: Dynadock U - problem with graphics card driver

    Hello.

    I have a TOSHIBA Satellite Pro L500 PSLSAA-00K00U running Windows 7.

    I just installed a Toshiba Dynadock u after I restarted and connected, I recevive the error:

    Warning

    The Catalyst Control Center is not supported by the version of the driver for your compatible graphics card.
    If it please your ATI graphics updated driver, or enable your ATI card using the display manager.

    I downloaded the latest display drivers ATI on Toshiba website for this model of laptop, but the dirver installer said that the latest drivers are already installed.

    Is there something I need to do to prevent this recurring error?

    Thank you

    Steve

    Hi mate

    I think you need to reinstall or update the Dynadock U Software.
    Visit the page of European driver of Toshiba and searching:
    Options-> connectivity-> Dokcs & ports-> Dynadock U10 replicators

    Then you will get Dynadock Utility for different OS. The latest version of the software is v2.1.4.7.

  • Satellite Pro L500 - no license for Toshiba Bluetooth Stack

    Hope someone can help me. I'm going along in circles.

    November 8, 2010 I bought online at Toshiba Toshiba Bluetooth Stack (Premium Edition) for my Toshiba Satellite Pro L500 so that I could use my dongle (non-Toshiba) existing. It works well until a few months ago.

    Thinking that the dongle was packed that I bought another one.
    However, even though I know that it is not working I could not make it work on my Toshiba laptop I get the error after the Toshiba Bluetooth stack as follows:

    "Thank you for the evaluation of battery Bluetooth for Windows by Toshiba. The evaluation period is now expired. You can purchase a license for this version of Bluetooth Stack for Windows by Toshiba. "

    This seems to involve I came at the end of a free trial period but I did not because I bought the full license in 2010. I tried various things, but I can't go beyond that. I'm not a computer boffin, but I can reasonably find my way around a laptop. Can someone please, please help me?

  • Satellite Pro L500 - F3 - F200 - 0002 ERROR at STARTUP

    Hello

    Last night I went to reformat my laptop, to halfway through I thought no I won't do this more then I clicked Cancel. Now whenever I try to turn on my laptop, it just gives me the ERROR saying F3-F200-0002 and won't start. I tried pressing F8 at startup, but there is no option for recovery or repair in the menu mode just safe mode debugging etc.

    I was looking at forums and discovered I should press 0 constantly while the laptop boot and it will bring up recovery Wizard. Anyway, when I do this it says HARD drive recovery mode, then said Windows is loading files, then it goes to a page saying ERROR F3-FF00-0006.

    I was told to download this file (http://209.167.114.38/support/techsupport/tsbs/all/-TSB001522.htm) but I don't know how to run it on my laptop which is broken (I'm on my computer of nans for the moment). I tried to put it on a USB key and mortising the USB in, but it won't work.

    I need urgent assistance that I use my laptop for my work (I work from home, using laptop computer). We have a lot to say if you could help me fix it at home, I have no money at the moment to be able to get a recovery disk or send the computer for professionals to fix store.

    P.S. I'm on Windows7 and my laptop is a Toshiba Satellite Pro L500.

    As I know the installation of recovery should not be interrupted. If you do you not have access to the wizard of recovery more. Now, all you can do is install image recovery using recovery DVDs.

    If you have created a? Otherwise you can order under https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

    Otherwise that you can try to install the version of the OS if you have the original installation disc for Microsoft.
    You know, now the situation is quite complicated.

    By the way: in another ad with the description of the similar problem some people wrote that this error message can be caused by damaged HARD drive. I can't confirm this, but anything is possible.

  • Satellite Pro L500 - press Fn key blocks the laptop computer to blue screen

    Hi all
    First post so please ask if I did not include all the necessary information.

    I have the Satellite Pro L500-1TX (Win 7 32 bit os) and everything worked fine including the Fn menu drop-down button.

    Now, whenever I press the Fn key, it blocks the laptop to a blue screen. The computer then restarts automatically and that it was an unplanned shutdown offers the usual safe mode option.

    Unfortunately, I do not know when this started as I do not use the fn often hesitate so just do a system restore. I don't know how far back to go. It was several weeks before I associated accidents hit the Fn key.

    Any suggestions as to which Toshiba drivers may need to be reinstalled. The computer otherwise works fine.

    Cheers in advance
    MTV

    Great! Thanks for this feedback that I also found other threads about Support Flash Card utility and it is the tool command keys FN so read the forum in other threads contributes without doubt! ;)
