Toshiba Satellite 6 years

Hello, my hard drive failed and I went to bestbuy and bought an ssd and installed.  I bought a disc support only vista Home premium sp2 and installed. The team said geek look under my laptop guy and use the product key.  I'm guessing I'm not alone in the discovery that the label has virtually disappeared.  I tried frozen magc bean but as I've learned of many trial and error, he pulls this toshiba used only a touch of volume or something and not the actual product key that was on the bottom.  Toshiba told me to call microsoft, who of course said to call toshiba.  Any ideas about my options?  I guess there is always a way to recover the keys or the 2) buy a license again. I am 60 retired firefighter with the iq of a jerk pc.  I am deeply grateful for the support of this community.

Hello

Torch and a magnification of glass, or take a picture and expand on the computer are the methods most try with your problem trying to read the product key.

___________________________________________________________

If Toshiba was still available for Vista for your model recovery disks, this is the way to go, as using the manufacturer discs recovery do not normally requires a product key entry because they activate automatically.

At the same time they sell them for a small fee.

You are right; key finder programs are only Setup key factory that is used on several machines and is of no use for resettlement.

PKF programs are good to use for licenses of detail in Vista OS, 7.

Other than that; You must purchase another license.

See you soon.

  • Any warranty on Toshiba Satellite C70-C-199

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite C70 - C - 11 L half a year to Emag, Bucharest, Romania.

    I bought both it of Toshiba laptop and who are also to benefit from the guarantee that no matter what guarantee.

    3 weeks ago, it crashed, I sent him to a service allowed to Bucharest, Depanero Service.

    Their response was that is the faulty motherboard.

    I asked recover my data from the hard drive, because the storage is ok, it is not affected.

    But they said that the guarantee no matter what does not cover this.

    It is right, it is possible to be like this?

    Please check BIT ANY CE WHO GUARANTEE PROMOTION, TrustToshiba.pdf, it is very important for me.

    I was very shocked when I found.
    Depanero it is a Toshiba authorized Service partners, they require a fee for the DATA RECOVERY.

    Thanks in advance,

    My laptop has been with Toshiba repair now for more than 4 weeks. He apparently has a faulty motherboard. They say that Toshiba has no motherboards and cannot give me any estimate of when I get my laptop back. They charged me close to £100 because one of the bosses live had broken probably due to excessive torque when it is assembled. They said he had been abandoned, but has refused to provide proof of this. They say it's what Toshiba has said to do. Toshiba says it is Toshiba repair. Bottom line is that Toshiba is zero. I will never buy another machine of their share waste service after sale.

  • Toshiba Satellite L50 - B of the Bios date and time to reboot

    Hello.
    I have Toshiba Satellite L50 - B for more than a year. I upgraded the RAM to 8 GB and it works fine. But the last 10 days of the BIOS date and time keeps restarting by default whenever I turned off or in hibernation laptop. My battery is dead, but I'm not, it reloads all the time and restart the BIOS after that I have unplug the phone charger. I think that the CMOS battery is dead, but when I open the laptop there is no CMOS battery. Someone told me that this model has a kind of Flash for the time of the bios chip. How can I fix it?

    Get a new battery and will be all good.

  • Upgrading RAM on toshiba satellite pro l650

    I have 2 toshiba satellite pro l650. first of all an i did a RAM upgrade 8 GB (2 x 4 GB DDR3 1066 MHz Kingston) 1 year ago and work. Now, I would like to upgrade to the other laptop. I bought 'Impact HyperX HX316LS9IBK2/8 2 x 4 GB 1600 MHz CL9 SODIMM 1.35v DDR3L' but do not work! I thought that they were defective and I branch "QUMOX 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) 204 pins DDR3L-1600 SO-DIMM" but also these don't work on my toshiba! Why not work? What can I do?

    I presume that there is compatibility problem. Best thing you can do is to use two identical RAM modules.
    Can you please put name of full model of your laptop so that we can check what RAM modules are 100% compatible.

  • Toshiba Satellite: Toshiba Satellite - no sound

    I'm so tired of trying the same thing over and over again in order to get the sound on my Toshiba Satellite laptop. When I try to play music, everything seems to work fine, except no sound from internal speakers or headphones. In the device Mgr it was simply listed as yellow device-no high definition audio marks, etc. I noticed that when I stay on the audio icon, it says headphones instead of speakers and it keeps defaulting to 67% in volume. It has been activated and of course Windows is unable to find a better driver. I used each troubleshooting tool that I could find. Finally, I decided to uninstall the device HD Audio and download Realtek audio device. Well, all of a sudden my "speaker" icon returned instead of headphones. I'm so excited until I noticed that my newly installed audio device has already been set to 67 percent in volume and my despair, I see things playing and that this device works properly, permits, etc. etc. I tried the activation of the service, I tried command prompt, reset the defaults in the bios. I recently installed a different operating system, so no restore beyond beginning of the problem points and no option for total recovery. I went through the Microsoft tools and forums, Toshiba, Realtek, Conexant and so on. I don't know because my teenage son decided to take off the stickers on the back, so far as I know is exact Toshiba Satellite model laptop. Everyone always tells me the same solutions, but, first of all, I'm pretty tech savvy and knew to try in the first place most of their suggestions and also knew that it did not help. It's so frustrating because you'd think there was someone out there who could tell me why I have no sound. And Yes, each external switch, etc I can find, the volume control is turned on.

    Help!

    Hello

    I don'r think they could not help. Anyway, please try to activate the playback device

    1. a click right icon "speaker" (right)
    2. Select playback device
    3. click right speakers
    4 activate and as default
    5. click apply/OK

    Best regards and good luck.

    Note: I think that this machine could be to less than 6 years and can be taken in the hardware problem account. Please check with a repairman.

  • Toshiba Satellite Pro 2100; battery (probably) problem

    About a year ago and a half year I bought the Toshiba Satellite Pro 2100. Every thing worked perfect up what a month ago, and then my adapter not workt more. With a multimeter I discovered it was broken, so I bought a new (from you guys)

    But 2 weeks later a new was also broken. Then I used my father's map (it has the same specifications) which merged in 1 week.

    What is going on? Where is the problem. I think it's my battery.

    Hello

    It seems that your adapter is damaged by the oscillation of voltage.

    I can't image the laptop that has the same voltage as the AC damaged HQ with a swing of voltage!

    IF you wish, you can contact a Toshiba Service partner. They can check the power supply, I have the laptop and HQ.

  • Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 problems

    Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 is usually a large equipment once it works! I have bought in December 2001 + additional 2 year warranty. Used every day for a business purpose - mainly on a desk anchored to the Port Replicator or inside-out of the office with WiFi.

    Almost after a year I bought it - one of the memory locations died on the motherboard! A machine still worked OK - only on a slot with installed memory capacity! So the 256 MB of memory and motherboard have been replaced by September 2002.

    Then the hard drive was noise - has been replaced as a guarantee somewhere in October 2004. So I thought that it is her - I have now a few years without problem again!

    Yes - all of a sudden a few days ago, I closed the lid for a coffee brake and after that the machine woke up to a strange sleep - the screen flickered and a machine was muzzy! Like the previous night failures that occurred before that I thought that this restart will solve the problem! It s woke up without the support of the voice! And after that I discovered that the WiFi card is always on - no matter if you switch the button on or off! If the service said that probably the motherboard has not once again!

    So, which brand and model to buy then?

    > And after that I discovered that the WiFi card is always enabled.
    > - no matter switch you on or off! So that the
    > service provided that said probably the

    same thing with my nine M30 I bought last summer. I can't be able to turn off the WiFi keyboard functionality. the light is still on too.

  • Problems with online information product Toshiba Satellite R830

    Hello! I just bought a Toshiba Satellite R830-146 with the following general specifications:

    OS: Windows 7 Home Premium
    CPU: Intel i5 - 24010M
    RAM: 4 GB DDR II
    HARD DRIVE 640 GB

    I had install/configure these days.

    In addition to the original, Aministrator account, I first worked with what turn on the machine and the installation/configuration of starting the process, I had to create another account to user with administrator privileges. The reason? Because the settings of Internet Explorer 9 in the original Admin account were somehow gone corrupt: some web pages that I absolutely have to work with because of professional reasons cannot be properly charged more, and these web pages are only compatible with Internet Explorer, not any other browser, Mozilla or anything like that. After several hoyrs work trying to solve this issue, I couldn't find a way to solve it.

    So I created a second administrator. User account (with the intention to delete the original Admin account if it worked OK); and in the admin again. account 9 IE works fine in any web page but I this is my problem with the Toshiba application online product Info begins.

    Namely: Toshiba OPI app doesn't work at all in the admin again. user account, even if it worked perfectly in the original account of amin - and it still doesn't work (I haven't dared delete the admin account of origin). When it is running in the new account admin, Toshiba OPI shows only an error message. I tried with UN-install the utility, then put it back in the admin again. account - no result, problem still there and Toshiba OPI still works fine in the oldest account where the IE 9 settings are corrupt, but false in the new, where everything works fine.

    So, why don't I just uninstall Toshiba OPI, delete the older admin account and forget all about?, you ask. Well, because among all the specific software Toshiba provided with my machine, this seems to be the one and only piece of software that maintains a current alert on, locates, downloads and installs the necessary drivers, BIOS updates and other. Software specific to the computer of the machine it does basically what Windows Update performs the operating sistem. Like many other users, I usually end up uninstalling the pre-installed software, specific LABELTEX, most of the machines that I buy, because it most of it isn't useful. But I still like to preserve the piece of software specific LABELTEX update which is updated regular with LABELTEX criticism or specific patches to the computer/model instead of having to regularly visit Toshiba support & updates page to see if it is something urgent. And this piece of software in question seems to be Toshiba OPI utility, in this case.

    So I wonder if anyone has a diagnosis of why this does not work in all the admin. accounts (and no, the problem isn't that I do run the program with two admin accounts connected and active I already checked that), and how could I solve apart from uninstalling the Toshiba OPI and oblivion, that would be very easy , but I would not do.

    Thank you very much in advance for your help.

    In the last years I ve changed 3 portable Toshiba and the first thing I did was to remove the OPI and several other specific applications of Toshiba. Why? All of them start with Windows, slow start-up of the laptop, run in the background for nothing.

    My experience Toshiba doesn't offer new things every day, so in general you can use OPI every two months to check whether or not something is offered again. You can do this when you start your laptop with the original admin account.

    You know, that these questions are not easy to explain. Toshiba has tested pre-installed software and functionality with the original account. Who knows what is corrupt with your admin account and what have you done in the past.

    In my opinion, if you want to keep your configuration, stop OPI to run with your extra account and be happy. Each connection of two months using original admin account and check for updates.

  • Black screen on boot - Toshiba Satellite M70

    Hi all

    I have Toshiba Satellite M70, I need help, and I will describe my problem:

    -A few days my screen went black all of a sudden, I don't know how do I was away from the laptop.
    -Until yesterday, when I start my laptop, it gives me the black screen all the time but when I put to sleep by closing the laptop for a few seconds and then I click the button, my screen starts showing very well until my next restart and I do it again (I usually keep my laptop running almost 18 hours) which means that there is a lot of time on my next boot)
    -But today I started too many times, it gives me the black screen and the sleep mode no longer works. But several times today when I tried to start, the display shows the Toshiba screen for only 1 second then black alley again.

    PS You can see almost threw the black screen just if there is a Sun facing the laptop.

    Thank you in advance,
    Best regards
    Mr. Mher Krikorian

    > You can see almost threw the black screen just if there is a Sun facing the laptop
    This is very useful information
    I think that the problem is related to the FL inverter
    FL-converter is a small part that controls the backlight of the display.
    If this part starts to malfunction so you would see everything as behind a thick fog

    In my view the FL inverter must be checked and replaced if necessary
    This, to get in touch with a local service technician

  • Problem with my Toshiba Satellite L855 - 14 c

    Hey there guys. Last time I have a problem. One day, I was going down. There was a water and I wanted my laptop. But I slipped and my phone fell from the stairs. I was really worried. So I hurry took to the top. Power on and BAM. It didn't load Windows 8.1 but he showed something like: "No. Bootable Device Found. Please restart".» First I have if it is hard disk problem... So I brough HDD to my uncle. He tested the HARD drive on the other computer says it HARD drive is OK. Then I tried to delete and insert HARD return drive but still no change... . I think my uncle is right... I even tried to UEFI Windows 8.1 installation disk USB Bootable. The installation program is loaded successfully. But it was blocking "the installation program begins" about 4 hours. So I turned it off... Then I tried the installer again. I googled for help with DISKPART. But it has same problem that when I open CMD Setup (SHIFT + F10) and Type /diskpart it shows just something like:
    Microsoft DiskPart version 6.3.9600
    Copyright (C) 1999-2013 Microsoft Corpation.
    On computer: MINWINPC

    It does not appear DISKPART > more than 3 hours... (It MUST.)

    So I don't know what to do. .

    Please guys help me. I'm only 14 years old boy.

    My laptop is Toshiba Satellite L855 - 14 c

    I think that HARD drive can have bad sectors, possibly in the region of boot sector.

    Connect the HARD drive to another computer, run this utility to verify the SMART State and check the defective number of sectors/blocks.

  • Set password Linux ATA hard drive / Toshiba Satellite Pro U200

    Sorry for the long post, but I want to be as specific as possible:

    1)
    I use a Toshiba Satellite Pro U200 under Linux (OpenSUSE) for some years now. Works fine without problems so far, even the fingerprint reader works. I deleted and never used the Windows XP preinstalled.

    For security reasons, I have now decided to put a HDD ATA password, in case the laptop is lost or stolen (changed drive for a disk Seagate Momentus 7200 FDE.2 SATA II with full encryption of the disk material).

    In order to get the protection offered by the full disk encryption, I need to set a password for the ATA. During startup, the Bios must request the password and unlock the drive only when the password is correct.

    2)
    My problem is: in the Toshiba laptop it is impossible to set the hard drive ATA password directly in the bios (as is possible in HP laptops, for example). Toshiba there is only one way to set the password to disk, which is a software utility for Windows XP (named 'Assist'). But I don't want to change the operating system only to set this password.

    3)
    Therefore, I tried the linux instructions

    hdparm - user-master m - security-all-pass SecretMasterPassword/dev/sda
    hdparm - user-master u - security-all-pass SecretUserPassword/dev/sda

    which are used for adjustment ATA passwords. Indeed, at first, it seems to work very well. The password is set and the drive is locked.

    4)
    When I restart the laptop, the Bios the HDD password request, as it should do.

    But he does not accept the SecretUserPassword prior to seizure. The answer is "wrong password", or similar.

    5)
    Analysis:

    I have no doubt that the password has been set correctly: I checked by restarting the laptop through rescue DVD in linux and unlock the disc via

    hdparm - user-master u - safety - unlock SecretUserPassword/dev/sda

    in order to use it. No problem, it works as supposed to. After the release, the disc is usable as usual. And I can also disable the password via

    hdparm - user-master u - security - disable SecretUserPassword/dev/sda

    After you disable the password, the laptop starts normally again, but I have no password.

    When I re-enable the password bios Toshiba again asks the password during initialization, but does not accept the (correct) password on entry.

    6)
    Does anyone have an explanation for this behavior?

    Bios Toshiba has somehow changes the password entered by the user, before being sent to the disk? I think that this would be inconsistent with the ATA standard.

    Anyone managed to set/change the password to ATA in a way that the disc can be unlocked via the internal order of the Bios, without installation of Windows XP and the Toshiba Software 'Assist '?

    Thanks for reading this long post so far. Any response is welcome.

    Hello

    As you probably know Linux is not supported by Toshiba and if you n t get some good advice here I recommend you to visit a few Linux forums and try to discuss with experts in Linux it.

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A135 S2386 originally shipped with windows vista Basic, but he now has windows xp professional installed and there are 2 unknown pilots missing in Device Manager.  I think we're the bluetooth driver and the other unknown device is probably for the media programme.

Can anyone help

    Thanks in advance for your help

    Devices that have a problem with the drivers should be listed under problem devices in msinfo32...

    • Click Start
    • Click on run
    • Type msinfo32.exe and press enter
    • Enlarge (click on +) the components section
    • Expand devices problem

    Each issue must have an entry that looks like the format that...

    ID of device PNP PCI\VEN_1011 & DEV_0009 & SUBSYS_21140A00 & REV_20\3 & 267A616A & 0 & 50

    You can search the FRI and DEV (in the example above 1011 and 0009 respectively) codes at http://www.pcidatabase.com/

    This can direct you to a place where you can get the drivers. After being on a similar route for someone else with a Tosh, I'm afraid you're out of luck.
