W530 - should I RAID or not? + Disabling Optimus

Long story short: recently placed an order for a W530. Just checked my order shipment status and I see

"NO_RAIDof Internal RAID - not activated."

Also had a look at the manual W530 and I don't see what follows, because I intend to install a 2nd HARD drive:

Hard drive bay adapter
Model non-RAID W530 T530, T530i,
Model W530 RAID

Wait, what? There is no option to choose when ordering from the laptop. So in fact have a W530 RAID model or not?
Tried to call sales, sales directed me to tech, the tech directed me to sales that I didn't have the phone physically in my hands, but back another two times before that I dropped.

Just saw this little presentation text also in the manual on the Optimus and Intel HD4000 in the laptop. Really? This has not been at all listed in the data sheet. I plan to do a new install of win 7 so I hope that this disables optimus and keeps the computer laptop running off the quadro anytime, but everyone here would be nice enough to develop their experience, if any, with deactivation Optimus?

Thank you! Any help I could get hbere would be greatly appreciated, after the frustration both with the channels of support tech official.

There are 8 weeks on the W530 with RAID + Ultrabay hdd.

  • Z930 protected - will not disable the Touchpad

    Hello world

    Thanks in advance for your help. I have a laptop Toshiba protégé Z930.
    The button above the Tablet (built in mouse on the laptop) which usually disables the touchpad no longer works.

    This is why I can not disable the touchpad. Also function F9 or turn off the touchpad.
    This makes me think that it's a software problem. I updated the driver, and nothing has changed.

    Someone knows how to fix this?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Could you give more details about your problem?

    For example: what Windows system do you use?
    Other FN keys work correctly?
    This driver updated you exactly?

    Have you tried to reinstall the Package added on the value of the Toshiba (for Win 7)?
    This package contains a few pilots required and tools that control different functions for laptop.
    So next to the touchpad driver installation, this package should be installed / updated also.

  • Utility RAID does not work after upgrade to Vista

    Hello

    I have a Qosmio G30 with 2 HD 120 GB each. After that I've upgraded to Windows Vista Windows XP, Toshiba RAID Utility no longer works. In Windows XP Home Edition, it worked OK, but in Vista, there is no way I can reflect the HD. In other words, the utility itself works, but the button that should say mirror, or something like that is not displayed. I put the RAID-1 disks in the BIOS, but no go.
    Is it possible to get the software RAID to work again?

    Hello

    just a quick question: during the installation of vista, is that you have installed the RAID driver installation? Maybe this could be the reason why the RAID can not be activated properly.

    Please give some feedback, if you have installed the RAID for Vista drivers during installation...

    See you soon

  • Satellite L650-11R: I can not disable the WiFi using Fn + F8 module

    Hello!

    I have a rather strange problem: I can not disable the WiFi using Fn + F8 module.

    It happens after reinstalling Windows. I installed Windows 7 Pro SP1 x 64 (MSDNAA). I installed the driver Broadcom WLAN, then Toshiba Value added package and Bluetooth Stack from Toshiba Web site.

    When I press Fn + F8 there is only a Bluetooth icon, I can enable and disable. And there is no WiFi icon.
    Wireless network card is listed in the Device Manager, it works.

    Before you reinstall Windows, when I had used pre-installed Windows 7 HP, it worked correctly: there were three icons, I could turn off/turn on WiFi, BT and the two WiFi + BT by pressing Fn + F8.

    Does anyone have a problem like this?
    Can someone help me?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hmm generally the FN + F8 should switch on / off the Wlan correctly.
    Maybe the WLan driver must be installed again even if the wireless network adapter is already visible in Device Manager.

  • SideWinder X 4 does not disable the left windows key in games

    SideWinder X 4 does not disable the left windows key in games.

    When on the windows desktop, he will have the disabled windows key and a small box will popup in the lower right corner, saying he is.
    But if I press it, then in a game (fullscreen), it will be the game tab down, put me to what is "beneath" and open the start menu.
    I tried both Intellitype 8.2 and the latest Microsoft Mouse and keyboard Center but they both react in the same way.
    The Bank or the profile is set to number 2 (game) and of course, the windows key is disabled in the settings. Even if I turn it off on THE 3 banks it'll always exhibit the same behavior.
    I tried to implement the individual profiles for the games that I play as well but no luck there either. And re - install the drivers does not help.
    It completely defeats the purpose of this feature. Ideally, she would work on the other hand, being active only in an office environment and disabled in games/full screen applications, but it should at least work as announced, following the rules laid down by the Bank or the current profile.
    In addition, the auto feature does not work with these games or the other and some applications as well. Am I alone in having these problems? I'm ready to completely reinstall windows because it's *.
    Any help/ideas please?

  • PF_PUI_DISABLED does not disable the cursor to Setup

    Newbie question, which I hope to have a response from simpel :-)

    When I place my cursor I can't disable it by default in ParamsSetup:

    PF_ADD_FLOAT_SLIDERX ( ) "Report of appearance customized"

    1, // min

    5, // max

    1, / / slider min

    5, / / max slider

    1, / / default

    PF_Precision_HUNDREDTHS ,

    PF_PUI_DISABLED , //This does nothing, it is always visible

    CUSTOM_ASPECT_DISK_ID );

    The PF_PUI_DISABLED flag does not, disable other settings do what they are supposed to. I can turn it on events in ParamChange:

    AEGP_SuiteHandler suites (in_data-> pica_basicP); Assistance //Call suites (this should be done outside of the if-else?)

    Download the selected format

    FORMAT = format (FORMAT) (params[FIRST_STRETCHFORMAT]-> u.pd.value - 1);

    PF_ParamDef aspectParam = * (params[FIRST_CUSTOM_ASPECT]);

    if (format == FORMAT:CUSTOM( )

    aspectParam.ui_flags & = ~ PF_PUI_DISABLED ;

    on the other

    aspectParam.ui_flags | = PF_PUI_DISABLED ;

    ERR (suites. ParamUtilsSuite3()-> PF_UpdateParamUI (in_data-> effect_ref, FIRST_CUSTOM_ASPECT, & aspectParam));

    I have somehow the feeling, that the flag to disable should be set another way at the start rather than in the definition of the cursor.

    Help is greatly appreciated :-)

    Well, you can try this macro code:

    #define PF_ADD_FLOAT_SLIDERXX (NAME, VALID_MIN, VALID_MAX, SLIDER_MIN, SLIDER_MAX, LTVDS, PREC, DISP, FLAGS, UI_FLAGS, ID).

    {\

    AEFX_CLR_STRUCT (def); \

    PF_Err priv_err = PF_Err_NONE; \

    def.param_type = PF_Param_FLOAT_SLIDER; \

    PF_STRCPY (def.name (NAME)); \

    def. Flags = (FLAGS); \

    def.ui_flags = (UI_FLAGS); \

    def.u.fs_d.valid_min = (VALID_MIN); \

    def.u.fs_d.slider_min = (SLIDER_MIN); \

    def.u.fs_d.valid_max = (VALID_MAX); \

    def.u.fs_d.slider_max = (SLIDER_MAX); \

    def.u.fs_d.value = (LTVDS); \

    def.u.fs_d.dephault = (PF_FpShort) (def.u.fs_d.value); \

    def.u.fs_d.precision = (PREC); \

    def.u.fs_d.display_flags = (DISP); \

    def.u.fs_d.fs_flags = (WANT_PHASE)? PF_FSliderFlag_WANT_PHASE: 0; \

    def.u.fs_d.curve_tolerance = AEFX_AUDIO_DEFAULT_CURVE_TOLERANCE; \

    def.uu.ID = (ID); \

    If ((priv_err = PF_ADD_PARAM (in_data,-1, & def))! = PF_Err_NONE) return priv_err; \

    } while (0)

    And then add the parameter as follows:

    PF_ADD_FLOAT_SLIDERXX ('custom Aspect Ratio',

    1, / / min

    5, / / max

    1, / / slider min

    5, / / max slider

    1, / / default

    PF_Precision_HUNDREDTHS, / / precision

    0, / / display indicators

    0, / / general flags

    PF_PUI_DISABLED, //UI flags

    CUSTOM_ASPECT_DISK_ID / / ID

    );

  • The use of the battery has increased since the update to ios 10. Also, why can not disable the voice command. It's the most boring on the new update.

    The use of the battery has increased since the update to ios 10. Also, why can not disable the voice command. It's the most boring on the new update.

    Depending on what you mean by "voice command", either:

    Settings / general / accessibility / VoiceOver / OFF, or

    Settings / Siri / OFF

    As for your use of the battery, you can check what app pulls most of its use in the settings / battery.  A new version of the app is sometimes problematic, not necessarily iOS or iPhone.  If you see a unusual % of use of a particular application, or force-to leave it removal/reinstalling it or remove it until an update comes.  If anything seems unusual, it might be a problematic installation of iOS, in which case, you could backup your iPhone and restore it:

  • Inspiron N7010 can not disable the Touchpad

    I have an Inspiron N7010, Windows 764 bit, it was determined that the hard drive was once again, therefore, dell sent me a new hard drive, I made an image of the system on an external hard drive, then installed the new hard drive without any problem.   BUT after getting thru all the updates I noticed the touchpad has been activated and I always use a usb mouse, so I like the touch pad disabled.

    She used to take a minute to turn it off, now nothing works going on at the control panel and mouse properties gives me NO option to turn it off, I'm pretty sure that the last time this happened a Dell technician downloaded a different driver and it sets like that, but I don't remember for sure.  I went to Dells driver support and let Dells Diagnostic scan my computer and tell me what I need drivers.  I down load them and installed what he said and it came that I already had newer drivers than those it says to download, I just download them anyway to make sure and NOT luck.

    Is there maybe another driver I'm missing, or could I do something out of order, when I installed the new hard drive and loaded my system from the last hard disk image? Everything went very well, I thought, I have NO problem with my mouse external, other that I can not disable the touchpad or the touchpad and it makes me crazy lol. I sincerely appreciated any ideas or help with this.

    Thank you in advance!

    I GOT MY ANSWER!

    I found my driver and Utilities disc provided with my computer and found the touchpad on the disk driver and installed it on my computer and after restarting, I went to my mouse and presto, now I have the RIGHT driver, so I'm HAPPY to REPORT that THIS has been RESOLVED!

    Thank you and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
