• Tecra A11 - problems of the more recent/video BIOS

  Hi all

  I just got a Toshiba Tecra A11 the other day which is out of warranty (Refurb). When I got the laptop there is a problem where the photo was displayed at 1024 x 768 and biased (in BIOS). Image 1-2cm off the screen to the left, with over the space of 5-6 cm black to the right of the picture, the low 2-3 cm of the image were also the bottom of the screen.

  I installed Ubuntu Studio initially and attempted to force the display to a wide screen resolution. I didn't have a chance, I also installed Win7, but still with the latest drivers, I had no chance.

  It was strange because the BIOS was displayed in the same way, so, naturally, I decided to upgrade to the latest version of the BIOS. The BIOS of the laptop is quite old (end of 2009).
  I downloaded the update to the BIOS of Toshiba web site and ran the update.

  The new BIOS has been installed and rebooted the machine.
  However there was no image displayed on the LCD screen, windows startup has done successfully, if I connect to an external monitor to the laptop I brush. When starting the laptop backlight LCD lights.

  My question is: what can I do to fix this? Is a tool of recovery or down to BIOS available? Is it possible to reflash the bios? What is recommended?

  Thank you.

  This means that everything is ok with the external monitor?
  You can access the BIOS by pressing F2 and you can set it to the default settings?

  Usually, you can switch between the external and internal view using the FN + F5 key combination. It work?

• Tecra A11 & Express Port Replicator II - USB problems

  Hello

  I'm having a problem with a port replicator that I simple couldn't have resolved for months. I'll try to explain this as best I can.

  We have a Tecra A11, which seems to work fine running on Windows 7 Professional. When the Tecra A11 is pluged in an Express Port Replicator 2, not USB ports in the port replicator's work at all. Very good cell phone fees and the LAN switches on the replicator fine, but the USB ports simly does not work under any circumstances. It would also be interesting to note that the green light next to the "eject" button lights never really.

  I downloaded and installed the latest series driver for Windows 7 from the Toshiba support page which has no effect. We had 2 replacements for Toshiba because they also agreed that the previous, we had were not woring correctly, but this obviously was not the case because we still have the same problem with our 3rd unit. The Tecra A11 was sent back to Toshiba with case notes clearly describing the question, and he was sent to us "no fault found".

  Unfortunately, we don't have any other laptops to test on the port replicator. but I'm seriously suspect that the problem lies in the laptop, rather than the port replicator. For any idea or suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

  Kind regards

  Steve.

  Hello

  According to your message, you are not sure if the problem is related to the defective laptop Tecra or express port replicator.
  Hmm theoretically the problem might be related to defective express port replicator or Tecra.

  If found some information on the USB ports and the repliators port:

  + Make sure that the element of Legacy USB in the BIOS emulation is set to "Enabled". This feature only works for the keyboard and mouse. Also note that the keyboard and mouse must be connected before you start the computer. A USB mouse, keyboard or the floppy drive connected to the Port Replicator via any other connection that a hub of the first level, will not work until the operating system has started. +

  I also recommend to check the version of the BIOS; If the most recent BIOS is available, then you need to update this

• Re: BIOS version 3.30 Tecra A11/M11: problems with Ubuntu systems?

  I just got the updated BIOS version 3.30 on my Tecra A11/M11 invitation.
  I'm still under Win7 now, but plan to add a dual boot with Ubuntu when the next LTS strikes in April.

  Is anyone having problems with the new BIOS?
  Should I upgrade or leave intact 3.20?

  I don't find any evidence of trouble with 3,20.

  Why upgrade BIOS if everything is OK?

  In addition to as much as I know that Toshiba can't stand not the Linux operating system, and I doubt that the new BIOS would improve any Linux performance so, if you are satisfied with the version 3.20, stay with that

• Backlight problem Tecra A2 - image is very small

  Hello
  I have a Tecra A2 with a backlight problem.
  The LCD displays properly, but without any backlight, the image is very low.

  When the laptop is started is turned perfectly for about 3 seconds before turning off. Boots of portable code and can be used with an external monitor. If I close it now the backlight of the laptop turns on for a few seconds before turning off again. I tried a new Backlight Inverter which had no effect. Sensor lid closed is the magnetic type (no doubt a reed relay) and measure 100Kohms when open? and 0 ohms when closed.
  This 100K would be the problem?

  Everyone knows one of these symptoms or matter that has any backlight data converter, I wonder if I have a second faulty inverter.

  This could be a faulty back light FL problem?

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  You're just Philip.

  For me, it looks like the defective inverter FL too
  You said that the display on the external monitor looks fine. So we can eliminate a GPU fault.

  I think that your should contact the ASP in your country. The technician must check the defective part (probably FL inverter) and need to replace it with a new, compatible.

  > I wonder if I have a second faulty inverter
  I see you've already replaced the inverter a FL and the issue still seems hmm to be honest, I think you used a bad, but who knows that nothing is impossible.

  Then ask the technician to ASP for later handling

  Best regards and good luck

• Tecra A11 won't recover/restart of sleep

  Hi guys,.

  I have a TECRA A11 model no - PTSE1A - 00M 005.
  It has Windows 7 Professional 64 bit and is up-to-date on all windows update.

  When I click the power button and send it to sleep (power button / stop is set to sleep) or close the cover and he goes to sleep, I can't click the power button again and recover or restart from sleep. It doesn't do anything.
  Power, power sector and battery plug lights up green but the hard drive does not start, or I do not see the hard drive Led light up.
  I have to keep the power button for 5 seconds to stop the laptop, and then restart it.

  In addition to this, I also have times when the computer is turned off correctly, but when I go to start it, it won't start. As usual the left 3 lights, but the hard drive light does not illuminate. The fan starts, but the computer will not start. I have to press the power button again for 5 seconds for the computer, close and then restart. The second time round it always starts.

  This problem has me baffled for a while now and I can't find a solution for this.
  Any help would be much appreciated.

  Thank you

  Since when did you notice this kind of behavior?

  Try please set the BIOS to default settings and check the startup problem.

  FN + F3 to put the laptop into sleep mode, close the cover and after a few minutes open the cover and press the power button. The same problem happens again?

• Tecra A11-126 - can't leave mode "idle"

  Hello

  I have a problem with a Tecra A11-126. When the laptop has to start at the "idle" mode, it nothing"happens." The screen remains black, the fan is going strong, but the small LED lights green (in front of the laptop next to the stop/sur-symbole). The only thing I can do is to restart the laptop using the button Off / On.

  Do you have any suggestions for me, why this is happening?

  Best regards
  Anna

  Hey,.

  Wait a moment please, it s a bit confused

  What do you mean with "idle" mode? You shut down the computer, or was it in the Hibernate or standby mode?

  And what LED you mean exactly that green switches? On the left side of the power CONDUIT it s the AC adapter LED and across battery LED.

  Then, you talk about restarting the laptop using the / disable the button. This means that the laptop starts properly if you do this or have you noticed the same problem then?

• Tecra A11 Touchpad Windows 10 questions

  After upgrading my Tecra A11-182 (PTSE0E-0LP046GR) for Windows 10, I have problems with the touchpad. The cursor jumps from time to time in other places on the desktop, as in Word 2010. Y at - it a new version of the driver for this device? The Windows Device Manager indicates that the most recent driver is installed. Thank you for your suggestions

  Achim

  The cursor jumps because your palm makes contact with the touchpad while you type.

  The advanced settings of Touchpad has an option called "Disable tapping" or «Disable the Touchpad when typing»
  If you do not have these settings, you must update the driver for the Touchpad (Synaptics or Alps) that is compatible with Windows 10.

• Tecra A11 - 1EG - cannot be accessed after the supervisor setting BIOS password

  Hello, I would like to know if anyone can help?

  We have started to put a supervisor on our laptop Tecra A11 password so that our students can not set passwords on the hard drive, etc.

  To enter the BIOS and set a BIOS password, press us F2 that the machine starts.
  Then we go to the security option, then supervisor password.
  After entering the password we use twice, press us F10 to save etc.

  The machine starts ok and will windows smoothly.

  The problem we have now, is that we cannot go back into the bios at all.
  As machine starts support us on the "F2" key as before, but unlike previously the screen remains white and the "Toshiba leading Innovation > ' screen no longer appears."

  If we keep our finger on the F' key or continue pressing the laptop restarts just without ever get to the BIOS screen where I guess that get us ask the supervisor password that we set earlier?

  Is there another key, that we should be pressing that start the laptop?

  I would add that we have added a password of supervisor for the screen of security BIOS on three of our laptops and all three have the same problem.

  Thank you

  Steve

  I think this should be useful for you:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB0B032D0000R01.htm

  In some cases, you need to press the "INS" in Toshiba logo appears.

  Then appears a prompt for the password for the supervisor and if the password is certified then the BIOS could be entered by pressing the "F2" key

• Tecra A11 - 113 - white screen and the cursor of the mouse during the boot

  Hello

  My Toshiba Tecra A11-113 with win 7 32 bit boots with a mouse cursor and the visible white screen.
  I tried to start under different boot options. Mode, safemode, last repair job configuration
  and msdos command only... all these startup options give the same result.

  I also tried with win 7 32 bit dvd, but same result.

  I am able to access the C drive by booting with a linux key, so the data is visible.

  Can someone please give me a solution?

  Thank you

  What happens if you access the BIOS? Is menu visible on-screen BIOS?
  Turn on the unit F2 button and press.
  This should allow you to access the BIOS.

  If you will be able to access the BIOS and see everything as usual, then the screen is OK and I think there is a problem with your installation of Windows System.
  So boot from the Toshiba Recovery disk should help you solve this problem.

  You said that you already tried to boot from the Windows DVD disc is this Toshiba Recovery disk? In my opinion, you use this disk to restore the laptop to factory settings.

• Tecra A11-110 (PTSE1E) does not load

  Hi all

  Recently my laptop stopped charging.
  The battery is new and worked for a while. It works on another laptop.

  When I connect the charger, the laptop gets power, but it does not load. I guess it's always work around.
  Is this a mistake in any sensor motherboard?

  How can I fix?

  Is the motherboard 'dead' (for this purpose)?

  Thanks in advance.
  See you soon,.
  Hugo.

  Have you noticed the problem of load using the old, original battery?
  If the old battery may be charged correctly, I don't think that there is a problem with the laptop.

  You said you have tested this new battery in a laptop.
  Have you tried using another model Tecra A11?

  Your comments would be appreciated.

• Cannot open files locked by using fingerprints on Tecra A11 - 17 H

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Tecra A11 - 17 H - PTSE0E-03402EFR
  OS is Windows 7 64 bit

  Here's my problem:
  I blocked files (image, text) with fingerprints, while I was running Windows XP Professional.

  I copied my files without unlocked on external hard drive, and then uninstalled XP and installed Windows 7.
  After the relocation, the fingerprint reader has stopped working.
  I had to download the drivers and software on the Toshiba site.

  I then put my transferred on the external hard drive on the computer, but now it is impossible to open the file.
  Extension has been changed (automatically), an fpl. came to added after the original extension.

  I tried fpl removed, but nothing happens.
  When I right-click, I do not have the option 'unblock, but rather "to protect the file".

  I understand (reading the forum) that fingerprinting technology TPM consists of a microchip containing a unique computer decryption key.
  Theoretically, it would be possible to unlock my files, since it is the same computer...

  Help me please...

  Please read this:
  [Cannot access protected fingerprint after recovery files | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9802O50000R01.htm]

  _Issue: _
  A user can access its files of fingerprints protected when you save these files on external storage as for example a network drive and perform a recovery or reinstallation of the operating system on the computer where the files are protected.

  Individual: _
  AuthenTec fingerprint software provides a feature called 'the file/folder protection' which gives the user the ability to protect files without worrying if stored locally, on an external (USB flash memory) or network storage with either a password or stored fingerprints. After you protect the files, they cannot be moved/copied/deleted until the user Déprotège them.

  The first cause of the above mentioned scenario is due to the fact that the fingerprint software "Authentec" creates a link between material installed fingerprint and file system on the HARD disk that functions as a key. This connection is deleted after a formatting or removal of the hard drive of the computer. Without this connection, the files are no longer accessible and the user will not be able to unprotect them since there is no "key", that could unlock the file protection.

  _Resolution: _
  To avoid any loss of data caused by this scenario, * you need to unprotect the files before storing the files on external media * for purposes of backup/storage and then reinstall the operating system.
  Generally, users should make sure to keep a backup accessible to external storage of data corruption and data loss.

• Tecra A11 PTSEOU: Some keyboard keys not working not

  Hello

  In my Toshiba Tecra A11 PTSEOU - 08904L model, some of the keys on keyboard did not, initially, key 6 did not work. But now about 12 keys did not work.

  When I press one of these keys, I hear a single beep and nothing happens.
  Even I can't see the bios menu when you start the computer as "press f2 for boot menu".

  Is there something to do with the bios for this problem?
  I tried updating the bios, but the installation failed saying incompatible bios. Help, please

  Thank you
  Thawfeek.

  > Is there something to do with the bios for this problem?
  BIOS? Why ORGANIC?
  I assume that the problem of its equipment and you will have to replace the internal keyboard.

  Just to confirm the problem with keyboard: you can connect external USB keyboard.
  In case the external keyboard would work correctly, the problem is related to the internal keyboard.

• Tecra A11 - 19 L PTSE0E: totally freezes sometimes

  There are times that my Tecra A11 - 19 L is freezes and shows no reaction to any intervention by the user.
  After that a few seconds I heard that the fan goes up to the highest speed-, so I guess that the CPU is running in an infinite loop.

  The only way out of this State is hard to close the entire notebook.

  Can anyone give me a tip solve this problem, or how to locate the faulty component?

  Kind regards
  WIDI

  On this virtual path, it is not easy to tell exactly what is happening, but I imagine that this happens because of some background process that blocks your Tecra. Unfortunately, we can not say exactly what is happening.

  Since when did you notice this? Have you installed any software or doing something that could be responsible for this?
