Satellite U500-1E0 - Webcam shows only a black screen

Hello world

I have this problem, my webcam does not work. It has a blue light which indicates that it is running but it only shows the black screen. I tried to update software, uninstall, reintstalling once again, but nothing helped. I even downloaded a new driver from the Toshiba Web site but nothing.

Please, does anyone have a any solution to this problem?

My laptop is Satellite U500-1E0

Thank you

Hey,.

If the webcam shows just a blank screen, I could imagine it's just a setting incorrect webcam.

On the Web from Toshiba site, I found a helpful article that I think:

    Hello

    No saving necessary data and re-installing Windows Vista might be the best option, but here
    are a few others.

    You can save your files by putting the drive in another computer as a 2nd disk (best) or external
    Drive USB enclosure and then backup to removable media such as CD, DVD or other USB drives.
    Of course a real store of the computer or the manufacturer of your system can help to recover the files.

    Or you can use a boot Ubuntu CD to back up data.

    You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device
    Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
    on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

    A method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure) is CTRL +.
    ALT + DELETE - Manager tasks and tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - and then
    on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is available by
    repeatedly tapping F8 as you start. CTRL + SHIFT + ESC also begins the Task Manager.

    Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
    That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the
    Difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect. You can try a
    Google to see the proposed repairs, whom some have worked however these cover a wide
    field efforts.

    Go to: Control Panel, Manager of Devic, adapters to extend your network, click with the right button on your wireless network and click on uninstall.

    Do not put a check in the box: remove the software driver for this device.

    Restart your computer and Windows will install your wireless network.

    If the problem persists, see if your computer manufacturer has an updated driver.

    Hi guys

    Please help if you can; This morning I turned on my laptop (Satellite L300 PSLB8A-04R004 running Vista family) and all I get is a black screen.

    I tried removing the battery and turn on while plaugged in the power supply, same black screen.

    I tried to remove the battery then replace after 10 minutes, but the same black screen. All the power lights are on (but non-corps House).

    I tried everything suggested in support on the site page, but thought that you guys might have the answer?

    Thank you.

    > I have tried everything proposed in the support on the site page, but thought that you guys might have the answer?
    Seems that you have already tried a workaround solution that I would recommend.
    Disconnect the power adapter, remove the battery, wait 1 hour or more.
    Reconnect the two parts and then try to switch on the appliance.

    If that does not help, then you might try to start the device using a single module of RAM.
    Maybe it's a question of s a RAM...

    Otherwise it s necessary to test the material parts and run diagnostic checks.
    This can be done by a Toshiba ASP.

Most of the time when I wait about 10 minutes and try to do as well the system starts as usual... Yes... very strange thing here.

    To be honest, I don't want to send the laptop for Toshiba once again, as I could use for my business...

    Some general info that may be worth a visit:

    Since the issue is recent... it may be worth trying to

    If you have automatic updates of Windows...
    possible that a driver has been downloaded and installed

    Three possible causes for Movie Maker questions

    (1) the incompatible source files... (eventually... MPG or MP3)

    also, it may be interesting to try left click on "restore all".

    Several formats are apparently compatible with
    Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:

    Photos - bmp
    Video - wmv
    Audio - wav, wma, wmv

    (2) files source corrupted... the only solution for this would be to
    Remove the source files of the project one at a time and
    try to save each time until the problem file is discovered.

    (3) project is too big or too complex for system resources.
    Create several small projects... Save as WMV.
    Then re - import WMV files collected / drag in the timeline
    and record the final movie.

  • The RAM lot shown on Sys. Info. but the correct amount of shows mycomp/properties, black screen was crashing...

    Although quick and concise as possible. PC under XP SP3 Pro with AMD Athelon 2.41 GHz and had two sticks of 1 GB of ram with 256 MB radeon x 1650 just to use dual monitor graphics card. A few weeks ago it started to break up during different tasks, no bsod or error message, just a black screen crash and reboot. He wouldn't even say ms recovered or give me an option to boot safe mode or anything like that, just acted like it never happened. The typical check/clean/test when discovered that even if sys properties reported two GB of info sys ram only showed 256 MB total physical. Thought it was a RAM problem, took a stick, works slowly but not crash, exchanged, even. Put two sticks in another pc, no crash and it reads 2 Go in the properties and 2 048 Mo in sys info. Took the four MB 512 out of this pc put into this one, nothing, does not start. Put the 1 GB in works slowly with no crash, but reads only 128 MB of ram in sys info, while always reading 1 GB in comp/properties...

    So my question is: is this a power supply motherboard problem or power, or am I just missing something here? I wonder on BIOS or CMOS, but they have not been affected or modded and it worked. In addition, av is up-to-date with no reports of virus.

    Looks like you got a BSOD but just don't see it because XP is supposed to relaunch on these failures.  If your system is configured to save dump files, we can always get infromation from last bit depressed.  If the sytem is not configured to save dump files, make sure and then let a few dump files accumulate so we have something to look at.

    If you are forced to do so, you can certainly guess all what he could be and try things.

    Please provide more information on your system.

    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    Msinfo32

    Click OK, and when the system info summary appears, click Edit, select all, copy and paste then return here.

    For information about video drivers, expand components, click view, click on edit, select all, copy and then paste that information here.

    There would be some personal information (such as the user name and the name of the system), or what seems to be only your business that you can remove the dough.  Send two copy/pasta.

    XP is configured to restart automatically on some system failures, you will need to disable this feature for BSOD information will remain on the screen for you to see.

    Configure your system does not automatically restart on system failure (this is what he wants to do):

    Right click my computer, properties, advanced, startup and recovery settings.

    In the system failure section:

    Put a check mark in the box "write an event to the system log.

    Put a check mark in the box "send an administrative alert.

    Uncheck 'automatically restart '.

    In the Write debugging information section select:

    Partial dump (64 KB)

    Set the directory small dumpster:

    %SystemRoot%\Minidump

    Click OK, OK.

    Restart your computer.

    If you double-click on depressed, you will get information on it (including the field caused by the driver) and you should be able to spot the problem right away - especially if you see a model in landfills where Caused by field pilot is the same (beginning with this driver).
