  Hi - 1st poster time so apologies if this is correct.

  These days sometimes goes in a loop with the beginning of message and the custom of error until you turn off / on again.

  I take Comet or contact toshiba?
  is this a common problem?
  is this a simple fix?

• Satellite L550 - SMART failure HARD disk reports early - what to do?

  Toshiba Satellite L550-113

  At startup, I get a fault HARD drive reporting mini-message soon, and I am asked to by pressing F1 before will continue to Windows (Vista 32 bit).

  The message of the Toshiba HDD application alert is as follows:

  Disk0
  Your HARD drive is SMART failure to predict who monitors the HARD drive, operating status. Your HARD drive is facing a problem and CHIP controlling the software predicts that the HARD drive will fail. Toshiba strongly recommends that you create a backup for the data on your HARD drive. Contact an authorized service provider to check your drive and buy a new drive for replacement if necessary.

  I ordered a new HARD drive to replace the failed HDD (can't be bothered p * ssing all with the support of the RMA and tech).

  However, is it possible to repair the old HDD once it's been deleted? If I have the reformat, it would do anything, or is it more serious than that?

  Hello

  What should do? Back up all your data as soon as possible. You have created recovery DVD?
  If this is not the case, do. When you redeem your laptop HARD drive, you can use this recovery disc to install the operating system and have once again the factory settings.

  What is with guarantee s notebook? I mean that if the warranty is still valid, you can request service Toshiba to replace HARD drive.

• Satellite L550 - DVD player-help you need

  Hi all

  I use a computer Satellite L550-10N.

  Question 1 / hand: while watching a movie on DVD yesterday, the computer seems to loose contact with the DVD and did not want to read any more successful after one or two trial. I tried with other DVDs today, and none can be read. This means that the DVD drive is out of service? What should I do next? Has anyone encountered this problem? How to identify the default value? How to repair?

  Issue 2 / secondary: while searching on the internet for similar cases (which I have not yet found), I found some drivers seem old and seem to need a replacement by new. The pilots include network adapter (Inter (R) Wifilink 5100 AGN;) Realtek RTL8102/8103 Familiy PCI-E FE NIC), sound, video and game controller (ATI HDMI Audio; Realteck Audio high definition), System (bridge Intel (R) 82801 PCI-2448) devices and "Device disconnected" (in french) as USB storage device. What will I do with this information?

  Thanks for your help!

  Hello

  I agree with Akuma.
  You should try to remove and delete the upper and lower registry key filters: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Co ntrol\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
  But it has been already mentioned in MS. knowledge base article

  Before delete upper and lower filters in the registry, you must delete the ODD (optical disc) in the Device Manager list.
  After that remove the upper and lower filters and restart the device.

• Satellite L550 - 13K - sharing option working memory?

  Hello

  Can someone help please with the performance of the video?

  According to the specification of Toshiba video card features an option of memory shared to 1,759 Mb with a w7 64-bit system.
  When you play WoW, I video performance issues massive experiancing even when my video options are on the smaller settings. Environmental multi-player my average fps is 6.
  Tempro, the system is completely up to date.

  Considering the options, I do not deliver if the shared memory option works. During the game the 4 GB internal memory is used for only 42 percent. This would theoretically exclude and have no internal memory. In the past you can allocate memory in the BIOS, but that seems to have been automated. Also the video driver does not seem to give all the options, except for the 3d options where I put the driver memory usage to high.

  How to determine if this option actually works? and where it can be configured to force them.

  Thank you for your help in advance. H

  Hey Buddy,

  Quad is right, there is nothing you can do to improve the memory shared for graphics card. Everything will be controlled automatically. Just make sure that you have the maximum capacity of RAM installed, then you will have more video memory.

  Satellite L series is not designed for games. It s great for office, Internet, videos, photos, etc. but not the best laptop for games. As a result, the graphics card is not powerful enough.
  A series of satellite is better, but the Qosmio series is ideal for games. :)

• Satellite L550 - 11 k - HDMI + VGA at the same time?

  Hello

  I have laptop Satellite L550 - 11 k and I was wondering if I can have external work hung up on the VGA and HDMI monitor working (or just audio to hdmi) port at the same time.
  I tried and don't have a chance making it work together.
  I use Ubuntu 10.04 as an operating system, and I think that this is not a problem with the operating system.

  Thanks in advance.

  Kind regards

  Hmm, I think that's not possible.
  You will need to choose the video of our choice and it can be down by pressing Fn + F5
  To my knowledge you can choose either the display internal + VGA or display internal + HDMI but it of not possible to choose VGA + HDMI.

  In order to connect two monitors to your laptop, you will need an additional feature as Dynadock W20. This support Dynadock DVI port and you can use an HDMI to DVI to connect a monitor.

• Satellite L550 - 11K webcam Info

  Hello!

  I want to know the resolution of the webcam integrated mobile satellite L550 - 11 k and the webcam on the new L555 laptops.
  It is 0.3 or 1.3 megapixels?
  Someone at - he experiments with the help of Skype with this webcams?

  According to the specifications of the Satellite L550 laptop - 11 k to 0.3 M Pixcel camera.
  Satellite L555-10N has the same 0.3 M Pixcel camera.

  On my Satellite I 1,3 M Pixel camera and cannot say how it looks with 0.3 M camera, but I think it should be OK for video conferencing.

• Can I use another laptop with Satellite L550-129 adaptor?

  Hello

  My Satellite L550-129 card is broken. (dc 19 V ~4.7 (A).

  Can I use an adapter of a mini laptop Toshiba NB500-135? (dc 19 V ~ 1.58 A)

  It is therefore the same Volt but a lower amp, can I damage something?

  Greetings,

  Bart

  Hello

  Volt value must be the same! It is very important to avoid than anything.
  In your case, the same value of Volt AC to other support adapter, so you won't damage anything other THAN the value of the intensity is very low and I guess that the adapter does not provide enough power for L550 notebook. For example: recharge the battery would take much more time.

  However, I think you could check it simply as mentioned; you won't damage anything.

• Satellite L550 - impossible to activate Bluetooth & wireless

  Hello

  Can anyone help, I just replaced the hard drive and I have no backup disc for windows 7.
  This laptop came with Vista installed and an automatic upgrade to windows 7.

  I downloaded all the drivers for this model and I can not get the wireless or Bluetooth to work as they say of
  to activate the switch. I searched the sides out of the PC and there is NO switch then, how can we get it to work.

  This is the only problem that I have.
  PS The Lan cable works OK.

  Thanks in advance.

  Satellite L550 (PSLN8A-00Y008)

  On many models of Toshiba WLAN switch is no longer available and WIFI/BT will be enabled/disabled with function keys (FN keys). To work, you must install added Toshiba Value Package and Toshiba Flash Cards Support utility.

  You have two of them? Check please if Toshiba flash cards are listed in the startup (run > msconfig > startup).
  By the way: you can use the keys FN + Fx?

• How to avoid ruining the recovery on Satellite L550 partitions

  Hi all

  I recently bought the Satellite L550/010. I'll put another OS on it, but I want to assure you that I can still retrieve its state of origin. It came with the following partitions:

  First partition (1.5 GB): contains the directories 'Boot', 'recovery', 'System Volume Information' and 'bootmgr', file 'WinREPartition.ini '.
  Second partition (454GB): looks like windows C:
  Third partition (11FR): contains the directories 'bin', 'boot', 'images_boot', etc. and files 'bootmgr', 'data.ini', 'editaf.bat', etc.

  So, my questions:
  What is the role of each of these partitions? Those who can remove and still be able to use the method of "restoration of the recovery partition? Who can remove and always use the method of "restoration of recovery disks?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  above all, don't forget to make a recovery disk.

  > What is the role of each of these partitions?
  > First partition (1.5 GB)

  This recovery utility that begins d image to local hard drive file recovery

  > Second partition (GB 454):

  There is a partition where to install your current operating system

  > Third partition (11FR)
  This is the folder of hard disk image to restore the factory settings of.

  Installation of any other Os will move partition and you will not be able to restore the factory settings by using hard disk image file (F8 at startup). This is why I advise you to burn a recovery disk if you decide to install another Os. In this case, a recovery disk will restore factory settings

  The fact is that not all series of phones are supported you will need to test

  The L500/L550 don't seem to support the switch WLan hardware, but just that the FN + F8 key combination. The downside is that you can not activate the WLan if the compatible driver that controls the FN keys would not be installed.

  I read about it in a few discussions, but unfortunately without the use of FN + F8, you will not be able to activate the WLan. :(

• Satellite L550 and BT to my headphone connection

  I want to connect a headset bluetooth Philips for my Toshiba Satellite L550 - 13 c. (windows 7 64) What is the best way to do this?, if there is a way. The only thing I could find is one to activate bluetooth that I had to use the FN in combination with F8.

  But still, I am not able to detect or connect the bluetooth headset to my computer.

  Thanks for any advice.

  The question just the beginning for you: are you using the original preinstalled recovery (OS) image that you got with your laptop?

  I just want to know if all the software, including the BT software (battery Toshiba BT) are preinstalled on your computer.

• Satellite L550 - lack drivers for Bluetooth

  Attempts without end to get my cell phone Nokia 7230 working with the Bluetooth on my Toshiba Satellite L550, but nothing happens. When I try to download the drivers, it says plug it. Also, I get this message of Nokia PC Suite.

  I get the message that the three drivers are missing, 6to4 map ISATAP M/S M/S & M/S Teredo Tunneling adapter card.
  All attempts to repair through the Microsoft site failed, & the only suggestion is "computer to contact manufacturer.

  The computer is still under warranty, purchased in France where I still live.
  Just to add to my misery, Windows 7 is in French, which is not making things easier, because English is my mother tongue.

  Should I just give up & buy a USB cable & forget Bluetooth?

  Hello

  Are you sure that portable supports the internal Bluetooth adapter?
  Check if you have a BT label at the bottom of the unit
  Maybe the laptop does not support the BT module and so you are not able to connect the phone to this unit

  If the laptop supports an internal BT module, you must reinstall the BT stack which you can find here:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/Bluetooth/

  FYI: you can activate the BT using FN + F8
