• Tecra A8 PTA83E - only 3.3 GB recognized by 64-bit systems

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Tecra A8 PTA83E, recently, I inserted 2x2gb DDR2 PC6400 (800 Mhz), my laptop supports only PC5300 (667 Mhz), memory works well, but under ubuntu (x 64) I see only 3, 2 GB, WIN 7 (x 64) and in memtest 3, 3 GB. Why this behavior? Is because the modules of memory has a greater frequency than those who support the laptop? If I insert a memory module(2GB) at a time I see 1, 9 GB. Thank you.

  Hello

  I guess that the other part of the main memory is shared by the graphics chip.
  What value memory appears in the BIOS?

  If the 4 GB are indicated, then everything should be OK.

• Tecra A8 PTA83E - installation of package of added value

  Tosiba Tecra A8 PTA83E
  Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate X 64

  I was unable to install the Toshiba Value added package (vap-vista-1011btn-en) or any version before it. I talked to technical support Tosh for many times and they always promise of customer support will respond to the request, they never do.

  Towards the end of the installation, start the process of "Computational space needs" an error dialog box that contains "ID_ERR_NOTINSTALLVALZ_MESSAGE". The only option available is 'ok' and when this field is selected the installation rolls back and the finishing screen says "The wizard was interrupted before that TOSHIBA Value Added Package can be installed completely".

  I'm, I'm sure you understand, VERY frustrated by this problem. I bought (the very expensive) Vista Ultimate as Toshiba, claim that this laptop is Vista ready and it is quite possible, but the drivers and software provided are not. I also have problems with:

  Bluetooth
  Free config utility
  WinBIOS updater
  Audio driver
  Graphics driver

  I will record these problems from another thread I want to deal with these problems one at a time.

  Thanks in advance for any help being given/offered.

  Hello

  You run the 64-bit version of Vista?

  I m not very surprised that you are not able to install the Package Toshiba Vista added value.
  All the drivers, tools, and utilities are designed for the 32-bit version of Vista!

  To my knowledge the drivers 32 bit don t run on Vista 64-bit operating system!

  Regarding the error ID NOTINSTALLVALZ ERR MESSAGE.
  It seems that the BIOS update could solve this problem.

  This was reported in different threads here in the Toshiba forum!

  I also checked some other sites Toshiba from different countries without result.

  I wish there was an option to check through all countries, at the same time.

  Kind regards

• Done Tecra A8 PTA83E support 5.1 system speakers & how to connect it

  I have Tecra A8 PTA83E lap top model. (Serial No.: X6100725H)
  When I check my audio system in the Control Panel, it is show the types of outputs for 5.1 suround sytem, even some more up to 7...

  I bought a 5.1 speaker system, now I want to connect with the laptop.
  It has two input pins normal for speakers and input microphone.

  When I check the laptop, it has two plugs for the audio output and others for the mic input.

  Could you please tell me this laptop will support, if so, where the decision-making support or what I by an adapter that allows two taken from a jack (laptop audio output)?

  Thanks in advance,
  Karine

  As far as I know this will work with a digital output only sound. At your Tecra this optical port? I don t think so. I know that Toshiba multimedia notebooks have a.
  So I think that you cannot connect to 5.1 surround sound directly on your Tecra.

  Sound in the Panel options are standard options of Vista.

  Tecra M5 cannot enter the BIOS to change the setting too boot from cd first

  I bought on ebay and the seller sold me a dubious version of xp so I want to format and install my own at the start he said:

  The Intel Boot Agent GE v1.2.31 initialization
  KE - E05: the LAN adapter's configuration is corrupted or has not been initialized. Boot agent cannot continue

  Hello

  The message looks like you tried to boot and install Windows LAN

  If you want to change the boot order, I recommend pressing the F12 key, immediately after that the laptop was turned on!

  A new start menu should appear, then you can choose the reader of CD/DVD (ODD) and a boot device.

  Also by pressing the C button should allow you to boot from the CD inserted, bootable.

• CS4: Resize raw images and maintain the aspect ratio

  I have a few images in full HD 1920 x 1088 or what it is, and I need to put it in a film where everything is in the resolution 1040 x 584, is it possible to reduce the resolution while keeping the proportions? All files are. MOV that I like to keep, but if it's the right size. AVI, that's fine too.

  When I try to export a single clip on first, the aspect ratio is lost and I've tried several programs of video conversion in the last two days, none worked for various reasons, the resolution that I needed was not available, would not work the file after conversion, first does not recognize the file, the aspect ratio has been lost etc.

  Can someone help me out here please?

  Use the option to scale the motion effect.

• aspect ratio of Mozilla is not good

  After changing my windows, the aspect ratio of Mozilla is not good (the letters are too small and the page is ok or letters are ok and the too big pages - added below images). Before changing the windows, everything was fine. It seems as if my screen is too small to Mozilla, although the proportions of all the other programs is fine. I tried to Zoom in and out the page and the letters, but nothing helped.

  It seems that the problem was in the drivers for my graphics card. Thank you very much for trying to help, I appreciate it a lot!

• Is it possible to change the aspect ratio on the 5 d mark iii in video mode? How is that possible?

  I can see where to change the format of image in Live Mode, but I can't see the options for the movie on the 5 d mark iii mode.

  Hi dhooser!

  Thank you for posting.

  Video Full HD is shot at a resolution of 1920 x 1080, which is an aspect ratio 16:9 fixed.  Standard definition video is shot at a resolution of 640 x 480, which is a fixed ratio of 4:3 aspect.  This cannot be changed as it can for still photo shooting.

• aspect ratio of false drawing in Windows media center

  Hello

  I was viewing and recording of digital television live in Australia on my Acer 6920 (built-in tuner is AVerMedia A309 minicards, DVB - T) and outside of never being able to download tv program guide information - I really don't like that much to this topic - everything was very good and a picture quality and report l / h have been correct , until mid-April 2012.  I went foreign 3 months and are back in Australia, connected my computer to an antenna and now the proportions of photo is wrong: it should be 16:9 full but now is extending laterally a 4:3 image to fill the 16:9 from my computer screen.  I took a screenshot but don't know how to set or view here.
  My MWC and Vista version information: V.6.0.6002.18242 (vistasp2_gdr.100414 - 0533) with technology WMC.
  And by the way, even my old recorded tv files played in WMC are the evil aspect now BUT when the same files are read using WMP or WMM is the aspect is correct - no cropping on the sides and no stretch; full 16:9 picture is played as it is.  This leads me to guess that the problem is specific to the WMC and perhaps an update on vista in the last 90 days caused the problem?  This also means that the tv signal is not the problem; If it was the recorded files would play in the correct proportions but don't live tv would be displayed in the wrong aspect ratio.
  Thanks for your advice and suggestions.

• Aspect ratio 4:3 on serious DVDs

  My HP laptop (with Windows 7) Windows media player and HP DVD play DVD playback programs.  Whenever I try to read some DVDs which are 'copies burned"(who play in a regular DVD player as long as you can change the aspect ratio) always liked the 16:9 ratio in a 4:3 ratio.  No the case in all the settings for either the Windows media player or the settings of 'HP DVD Play' lets just set the settings for playback of 16:9.  I got into arguments with my friend who burns the DVD for me because he says I have to update the computer online, but I can't find anything.  I toild him he made the wrong DVD because he burned a few movies to a reading of 4:3 for his TV, but said it should play back fine on my player... Yes good.  Mind you, it isn't just computer tech saavy, Burns, and copy DVD from a DVD burner drive.  Some movies, it gives me reading back perfectly, others, where my question, just to play in this press (left and right bars), 4:3 format.  Its driving me crazy.  Y at - it an update can change the image format in this situation?  Is there something my friend done badly in these Burns of his?

  Any help with this would be wonderful.

  On the start menu, click with the right button on the Media Center and select Properties. Tab shortcut, in the target, add "/ widescreen ' for what is already there for example"%SystemRoot%\ehome\ehshell.exe /widescreen ".

  Reopen Media Center and it should load in 16 / 9.

  Please reply back and let us know if this can help.

• U2415, no 16:9 by design aspect ratio

  I just got my Dell UltraSharp U2415 the other day, and I noticed that it only supports 16:10, 4:3 and 5:4 through the OSD aspect ratios. Are there plans to release an update of the firmware which will add support for 16:9? It seems strange to no longer support the 16:9 - it will prevent users from being able to use the monitor with external devices such as a game console, set-top boxes, Blu - ray players, etc.

  The U2415 was never had the intention to make 16:9.

  Guide the user, page 43,
  "Aspect Ratio adjusts the image of the picture in Wide 16:10, 4:3 or 5:4"

  Presentation sales site States,
  "Huge viewing experience and excellent connectivity at 16:10 aspect ratio.
  "Enjoy 24" superb clarity on a large 16:10 screen aspect ratio ".

• BB10 Simulator square locked screen aspect ratio on VMware Fusion/Mac

  Having a problem with the BlackBerry 10 Alpha Simulator Beta for VMware Fusion 10.1 Dev / Mac OS X 10.8.2. The Simulator screen is locked to a square aspect ratio and cannot be resized. I tried to make full screen, change the zoom, which extends through OS X window, and the virtual machine upgrade, but the aspect ratio remains. See screenshot below:

  

  This makes it a problem with our Android app worn, which is completely chewed on that square screen. The entire half bottom of the app is cut off.

  On VMware Player for Windows, the screen appears like a normal phone screen:

  

  Suggestions for a report l / h correct phone on Mac Simulator?

  It seems that you use different simulators.
  Square one is for devices with physical keyboard. They have the screen resolution of 720 x 720.
