Satellite U400 - can't change brightness after reconstruction

Had a problem with my laptop in December, which gave rise to a new backlight and Ribbon being installed on the back. Wouldn't power for me after that so I had to me TI usinf rebuilt recovery disks :-(

Since then, although everything seems to work fine I can't adjust the brightness of the display. FN F6/F7 does nothing - even if the bar goes up and down that the brightness of the display does not change. Have been in the power management options, and once again although I can change the settings it the display does not change. I set at full intensity when the power and about 25 percent when it is on laptop battery, but there is no difference, no matter what source of energy that I use.

I'm running Vista 32 bit

Have updated my BIOS to V5.00 (26/10/10)
Check my display adapter is running on the latest driver
Download and install the latest chipset utility
Download and install PVAT

Someone at - it suggestions - the lack of brightness gives me shocking eyestrain

Thank you very much

> FN F6/F7 does nothing - even if the bar goes up and down that the brightness of the display does not change

If you see the bar moving left and right using the FN or FN + F6, F7 then this means that the executed software ok and has been installed properly.

Maybe the problem is not related to the software, but the parts that have been replaced by ASP. As you said the backlight and reversed tape have been replaced and I think something can go wrong when replacing.
Maybe the technician made a mistake

But please check it;
Need BIOS and the BIOS by default.
Save the changes and restart the device.
Then try again to change the brightness.
If you do not succeed, then I recommend requesting the ASP to check this

  • Satellite U400 - can connect but the web pages are not displayed

    I have Toshiba Satellite U400 with Vista. I can't access the internet via the wireless network in my home.

    My computer connects with the network and the signal is excellent but Internet explorer is never able to display the web page. I followed the instructions to diagnose connection problems. I reset the network connection Windows network adapter, as suggested. He said while there still seems to be a problem with your connection, he tried a repair but the problem persists. He cannot communicate with the first DNS Server (212.77.192.59).

    My colleagues can access the internet with their computer, and I had no problem recently with connecting to other wireless networks in cafes and hotels.
    Can anyone help?

    Have you tried another browser like Firefox or have you only tried only Internet Explorer?

    You have DHCP or a static IP address? If you have DHCP make you you get the DNS server address automatically.
    If you have a static IP address, you must change the DNS address.

    In addition, you should try to update the driver for your laptop WiFi. See the Toshiba WLAN portal for an update:

  • Satellite L750 - can I change for Win 7 64 bit and how?

    New Satellite L750 preloaded with windows 7.

    In the Setup process asked to choose the 64-bit or 32-bit operating system.
    Chose 32 bit and I am having second thoughts.

    I notice the difference? I can't change to 64 bit and how?

    Thank you

    > In the configuration of the process asked to choose the 64-bit or 32-bit operating system.

    Start the recovery process once more!
    Turn on the device, press F8 and choose fix my computer.
    Then the new window will open and there you can choose HARD drive recovery.
    Usually we have to ask once more what version you want to use.

    Usually these problems are resolved with BIOS and WLAN driver update. Have you tried to solve this problem with any of these updates?

  • Satellite PRO C50-A-1KF - can't change brightness more

    Hey,.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite PRO C50-A-1KF. This week, we are unable to change the brightness and more.
    When we use the Fn + F4 combination, we have the small "widget" on the screen that goes for the brightness up/down. But the brightness of the screen itself does not change.

    No idea what can be wrong?

    Windows PS 10 is used as the operating system.

    Download and install Toshiba Service Station and install all the utilities found in there. You may need to first uninstall existing ones in the Panel.

  • Can't change language after OS upgrade of the Sierra

    Hello world

    After the upgrade of the Sierra, my MacBook Pro has decided to return to the French.

    Now, I am unable to change the language on the menus and dialog boxes.

    I tried to put the English in language and text preferences, same problem.

    I also tried to run sudo languagesetup, same problem.

    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    See you soon!

    Language changes are not applied immediately to the running applications, but they should be applied to the applications that you start after the change is made. Changes to the Finder will apply if you raise, or to do it easily, just log out and back in.

    Log out and back in? Or restart your mac? If you didn't do it and let us know.

  • Satellite U400 - PSU40E Synaptics touchpad problem after the recent update to BIOS

    Toshiba welcome,

    I've tested this in reverse, this is why the statement in the subject as it looks. After upgrading the bios of 3.00 to 3.50 touchpad loses its precision. Very rude and useless its like that.

    I tried different drivers, everything, but the only way to really solve this problem was it downgrade to 3.00 OR uninstall the driver Synaptics completely. Second solution, unfortunately, is unacceptable, because then I lose some features, like click on contact, which I don't use and control.

    Best regards

    Wojtek

    Hey Buddy

    I U400 and the BIOS has been updated to the newest one.
    The touchpad works like a dream. I m using Win XP and Vista and there is NO problems after BIOS update!

    In your case, this may be only a software problem and I think you can use the Toshiba Recovery disk and could reinstall the whole OS from the Toshiba drive

    It is a really radical solution because the whole HARD disk may be formatted, but if the resettlement of these two drivers touchpad didn t help then I think this would be the last solution.

  • Can I change voice after I created text-to-speech?

    I am able to change the voice AFTER I already created the text-to-speech in slide Notes of Captivate 8?

    Thank you.

    You can find this a bit tedious if you have generated voices for an entire course and the client decides they want another voice.

    You can manage the voice through the window 'Management of the speeches', Cp8, click the Audio Menu and select the speech management.

    Inside this window, there is a drop-down list titled 'Speech Agent.'

    Make sure that you replace 'MIcrosoft Anna' voices TTS custom downloadable for Captivate.

  • Satellite U400-128 does not start after hibernation

    Hello

    I currently have problems with my Toshiba laptop. I use it for internet, games, multimedia, programming... Yesterday, when I went to bed, I close the lid that does the same thing as usual--went to hibernation. But today when I tried to start the following things Notepad occur:

    1. If battery is in and laptop is plugged into AC - Laptop starts but after 1-2 seconds it stops again
    2. If the battery is out and the laptop is plugged into AC - same thing
    3. If battery is in and laptop don't is NOT plugged AC - computer laptop starts but nothing is displayed on the screen (it's not far, it looks like even a wink or something). Strange thing is that I can't turn off the laptop and then pressing the power button / stop. The only way is to take out the battery.

    The lights seem to work - well they are the right things.

    THX in advance for any guy advice;).

    Hello!

    It's strange and looks like a hardware malfunction.

    In your case, I'll try to remove the battery and the AC adapter. Wait up to an hour and then put in the battery again und plug in the AC adapter. Try it and maybe it works.

    In the worst cases, you must go to a local ASP and ask a technician for help laptop.

    Good bye
