Satellite U840-10 q - problem with brightness adjustment

• Problems with brightness adjustment

  Hello!

  I recently bought a new laptop with Windows 8 Pro. It's a Sony Vaio S Series, aged only two days.

  My eyes are very sensitive to light, so I kept the brightness on my old laptop less over time, but it won't let me change the brightness settings.

  I tried to change it on the charms of the bar, as well as the settings of the power plan and the Fn keys, but every time that I change it, it immediately self-aggrandizing ' adjusts to full intensity. I tried searching through the peak power plan settings, but cannot find the setting to turn off the automatic setting.

  He will show me he peut change brightness, but that he will not remain at the level I want for more than half a second.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!
  -Annie.

  Hi, Annie

  It seems that everyone wants to control the brightness on your computer, Windows, Sony, hardware, etc.

  Here are links to some tutorials with more information on how to do this.

  Adaptive brightness - turn on or off in Windows 8:
  http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/6042-Adaptive-brightness-turn-off-Windows-8-a.html

  If you have this installed, it has a brightness adjustment of the automatic screen in the Vaio control center, look in the section view .

  Open Control Panel and select Power Options. On the left side, at the bottom of the screen, click the Windows Mobility Center .

  If none of these help, I would recommend that ask you this question on the Sony Support Forums. Someone may have found the magic options to solve this problem on your model.

• Satellite M70-239 - problems with brightness adjustment

  Hello

  I ve got this laptop from my father after I buyed a new. Actually everything´s with him very well. But one thing is a little strange, I think.
  My old laptop and other portable that I had before, has the ability to control things like the brightness of the screen when you connect to load automatically. So not for this one. Nothing happens.

  Windows doesn´t also shows the remaining battery life expectancy and other things like that. These functions are not supported by this guy? I ve installed the latest bios version 1.70, which is available on the official website and I m using Windows XP.

  Someone at - it the same problem and is there a solution for this? Maybe you can help me.

  welcome them

  Hello

  Satellite M70 was delivered with Windows XP edition family, and Windows XP Home typical configuration. I imagine that you have installed all Toshiba tools and utilities, so it must there also have preinstalled Toshiba Power saver.

  He yiou can see profiles of different powers and each of them can be configured separately. Thus, when the laptop is connected to power notebook AC power will be the mode full power. There you can set LCD brightness to the maximum level.
  When the laptop is on battery will then serve others power plan. Compare the settings in two power modes and choose your preferred settings.

  Brightness level can also be changed with the key FN + F6/F7 combination.
  Of course, this will works if all Toshiba tools and utilities are preinstalled.

  Two weeks ago I've updated my Satellite U940-103 and everything went well. There is no problem with WLAN. I use it all the time.

  What model of laptop do you have?
  Have you installed the driver for the Toshiba download page or driver provided by Windows update (sometimes classified as important update)?

• Satellite P500-12D - a problem with the cooling system has been detected.

  Hi there everyone,

  I bought a Satellite P500-12D, which was a return of retail. When I start it up it runs a few minutes and then it appears on the screen:
  WARNING: A problem with the cooling system has been detected. Please, turn off computer immediately and return it for service.

  Follow the health of toshiba CPU is less than 50% temp and if it goes much higher that the cooling fan turns on and it lowers down and the fan stops again, I noticed that only the fan works r/h to cool the cpu, both should come together? What is a software problem?

  TThe unit is new without even the plastic off the surround screen or webcam. Any help or even point me in the right direction would be much appreciated, gary

  Hello

  Which program gives you this error message about the cooling system?

  Before contacting a service partner, as you can read in the error message, you must clean the cooling system using a jet of compressed air. Maybe dust blocking the fan or something else. Of more to clean up it of not necessary to disassemble.
  Here is an article on this topic: [how to clean a Toshiba laptop cooling system? | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=40]

• Problem with BRIGHT. EXE in QOSMIO G40

  Hello and Hello,

  I'm a new user here at the forum, and I hope I'm posting in the right place :).

  I just purchased a Qosmio G40 well in March and I'm very happy with it, but 3 days ago, I noticed a problem with it, the BRIGHT program. EXE, that controls the brightness of the flat screen does not work (well, it stoped working), when I press the button in the Panel frontal operational, or use the FN + F6 or F7 combination, this does not work, windows indicates that the BRIGHT program. EXE gave an error but does not specify what error.

  Does anyone have an idea why this happens and how to solve?

  Best,
  Ricardo

  That's the problem! If you want to use the system restore then all settings (settings of operating system, installed programs, registry changes, etc.) will be defined at the point of time at the beginning!

  This means that you lose the programs that were installed after the restore point created!

  But it should solve your BRIGHT. Number of the EXE!

• Satellite L850-147 - Audio problem with output jack and balance

  Hi all

  When I plug in my headset on my laptop (Satellite L850-147) and try to listen to music, I hear music (instrumental parts)... by far, I can hear the voice of the singer.

  I found a turnaround with the adjustment of balance in realtek HD audio manager 100% or 100% left...
  But this isn't the way that music have to play...

  I have reinstalled the Realtek HD Audio Manager but without success...
  Any idea?

  Thank you

  Hello

  And have you checked the settings in the software you use to play the sounds?
  Of course the Realtek HD audio Manager supports the sound configurations and you can change different sound effects such as environment and Equalizer but the same or similar options are supported by each software reading and I also recommend to check this!

  By the way: Toshiba laptops are pre-installed with a HD Audio SRS Premium application. To access this, go to:
  Start-> all programs-> SRS Lams-> SRS Premium Sound Technology
  Here, you will also get some options that could be interesting for you.

  Also recommend checking Audio improve
  Make a right click on the icon of speakers in the taskbar then on playback-> speakers devices->, click Properties
  On the development tab, select the sound effect you want and click on apply.

• Satellite L555 - 11 L - problem with keyboard

  Hello!

  I have a keyboard problem with my SATELLITE L555 - 11L. I noticed the first week after I bought it, so I think he's always been there.

  Description of the problem:

  It's as if some characters were swallowed, fairly regularly. It is not a specific key, it can happen on any character, about all 20 characters. Sometimes, on the contrary, some letters are doubled.
  It happens when I write fast. And this isn't always but: when I just plugged in my computer, it works fine. It seems that this happens after having been plugged in for a while. But I was not able to assess this 'time '. Sometimes, it is quite short (2 hours).
  If I keep a key pressed (all), the characters do not commonly appear on-screen. There are regular "jerks" (each 20 characters? I can't really measure).
  This is a very annoying problem, it annoys me when I write an email, that I often...

  What I tried:

  -It happens in every text field (Notepad, in a text box in IE, Firefox and Chrome, in MSN, etc...)
  -I am on WIndows 7. I tried on a CD bootable Linux (Ubuntu), the same problem appears
  -J' tried to write with an external USB keyboard: I do not reproduce the problem
  -with or without battery: same problem
  -J' I updated my BIOS with the update that is available on your site web (from 2010.03.12 if I remember correctly), but it changed nothing.

  I wrote my problem in a forum format hardware. Only one seems to have the same problem as mine. He returned to his PC to Toshiba, they changed the keyboard, but the problem is still there.

  I would like to know if this is a known issue and if you have suggestions of everything I could try before you contact Toshiba and let my precious computer for several weeks... (with the risk that it may return to the same State :().

  Thanks in advance!

  Helen.

  Hello

  I read in some forums on the same keyboard problem.
  Some characters were not displayed when you type faster
  I read that an update of the BIOS has helped a lot of guys has disabled the touchpad too and this has improved the performance of keyboard

  So I recommend you try it.

• Lightroom CC - problems with the adjustment brush and stain

  Weird question:

  End of 2012 iMac 2.9 GHz Intel Core i5, 32 GB of RAM

  Mac OSX 10.11.6

  Lightroom CC

  When you attempt to change a series of photos in the develop module I have problems with Lightroom gel. More precisely if I use the spot removal or adjustment brushes after two or three images, I find myself with a progress indicator of spinning at the bottom right of the image and the screen shows part of the image strong and part of the blurred image (as when loading an image is). It seems that no amount of waiting will lead to progress. All I can do is quit Lightroom and restart. But after a few images that the same thing is happening.

  If anyone else has experienced this?

  TIA.

• Satellite A500-1HK: some problems with ECO Utility, touchpad, GPU

  Hi all!

  I am facing some problems with my laptop A500-1HK AND I would like to have your opinion!

  last month, the eco Utility application cannot be activated from the special keyboard of the botton at the bottom of the keyboard, although Ihear special sound because its touch botton (so it works fine). I can activate only in the start menu and then the botton in the keyboard touch would become green.

  At the top of the touchpad (mouse), there is a botton that enable / disable the touchpad. It works again.

  A few times when I'm working, the screen turns black and then after 5-7 seconds, that it becomes normal with a message that nvidia GeForce GT 330Μ had stop working but now works well! (is it something serious?)

  On the taskbar, there is an icon with a yellow exclamation point indicating the function that intel RST does not work. What is c?

  Keep in mind I have install all the drivers to the latest version, but nothing has changed! I have windows 7 64 bit GR

  Thanks in advance!

  Go to-> programs and features Control Panel
  Here are looking for ECO Utility and uninstall this software and restart the laptop

  Then visit the Toshiba UE driver page and look for the ECO utility.
  Download the software and reinstall it.

  > A few times when I'm working, the screen turns black and then after 5-7 seconds, it becomes normal with a message that nvidia GeForce GT 330? a work stoppage, but now works fine! (is it something serious?)

  The same as the ECO utility. Uninstall the screen / graphic card driver
  Download the latest driver from the Toshiba page and install it

  > To the task bar, there is an icon with a yellow exclamation point indicating the function that intel RST does not work. What is c?

  TSRI means Intel Rapid Storage Manager. It contains the SATA driver for SATA HDD controller.
  In case this does not work, reinstall it again.

• Satellite L50D-B-15Z problem with cooling system

  Hi, I have a laptop about a year ago. And for 5 months, I have a problem with the fans. Out and the following message is displayed:

  WARNING: A problem with the cooling system has been detected. Please turn off the power immediately and return it for service.

  The strange thing is that the first time that is spent stopped working a week, then a month and finally stopped working until 3 months there now will not start.
  I have even the implied warranty of the product, but I didn't think to send because it takes virtually every week for classes. I can use it, but if I perform actions that require superior performance as playing the games or download several videos at the same time to start warming up, getting the message and if continuous closed finally down.
  What should I do and how can I solve the problem?

  Sorry if I do not quite understand. I do not speak English.

  There may be dust stuck in the heat sink.

  Have you tested the FN + F5 key combination once Windows has started?

• Satellite A350 microphone internal problem with Skype

  Hello

  I have a strange problem with the internal mic. If I use the registration option window, the microphone works. Although not large, static noise. But if I use Skype with the internal microphone, it is hardly. Only very soft background noise.
  As much, I know that this is not the problem of the Skype software, I tested Skype on different systems. If I plug in an external microphone it all works.
  I have windows vista installed and a microphone internal realtek.

  I have Toshiba send back for repair, but only replaced the microphone.
  Any ideas?

  Have you checked the sound settings in Windows? The microphone volume is perhaps not at the highest level.

  In addition, you can also change the volume of the microphone in Skype.
  Check it!
