Weird sound issue on Satellite L500

When I play music on Itunes or Windows media player or open my music library, the machine stops and plays them intermittently on his own.
However when I reduce the window he normally plays.

Hi Alec_1,

You have already tried a reader of alternative media such as VLC media player? In my opinion he of the best player freeware, you can have because it playes all audio and video files. You can download the reader here:

Have you tried updating the audio driver? You can download the latest driver from Toshiba's official website. :)

  • Weird sound issue on the Satellite P25-S507

    For awhile, my sound went on and off. Sometimes I'll start my computer up, and the sound does not illuminate. Sometimes I play a movie or a song, and then the sound will be distorted or just turns off. Can someone help me to fix my sound problem?

    Hello

    I think that you need to reinstall the audio driver. If this does not help, there may be a hardware problem with the speakers.

    Another possibility may be a software that was installed when the problem occurred.

  • Satellite L500-131, an HDMI output to the audio amplifier

    Hello

    I can't the sound of my Satellite L500-131 HDMI port to my Pioneer amp supposed to be designed to manage these tings...

    Think the problem is in the early stages as I * don't * select "Realtek HDMI output" as default + output + option is not available.
    Playing around, I managed to get to an old Microsoft driver hidden in memory somewhere and could select HDMI output 'default' through the laptop speakers. But ultimately this ddn can't get sound through either, well that the volume to "sound board" control of Vista indicates activity signal (bars during playback of DVD)... :|

    No idea what is the problem? By selecting "Output HDMI" audio output by default seems to be a Solver for everyone, but it's the only option that is not left in me, so frustrating... :|

    Thank you very much for any help provided.

    Hello

    To be honest I often use HDMI connection on my laptop but I never had any problems with this connection. Everything is working properly and even I checked again all works well!

    Anyway, in your case, I'll try reinstalling the audio driver. You can find it on the Toshiba site.

    If you use the HDMI connection, connect the cable first. Then turn on your TV or your amplifier and finally the laptop.
    Check it!

  • Satellite L500 - noise Squeak and mic/noise issues

    Hello
    I hope you can help with my sound problems!

    I have a Satellite L500 which is 18mth old.

    * Something *.
    In March, I had problems with my microphone / sound. If I had my volume of more than 50%, I would get a terrible grinding sound feedback that has been difficult to mute (IE due support on mute a couple of times).

    As I got a 2-year warranty, I sent him away and they said they fixed it but is short-lived. The problem came immediately. The only solution I found to have its volume by more than 50% was to completely turn off the microphone.

    * Two problem *.
    For the last few weeks I've been to randomly make this top placed, continuous his squealing that occurs usually when I am in public with my laptop in my backpack (annoying!). I have to continue to support on mute for the squeal to stop. Interestingly, my cell phone is cut off when it starts. Sometimes, my phone is hot when it occurs. Is this overheating problem?

    All the solutions for both of my sound problems? Should I send it to get my warranty repair? When I argued that it was not fixed the first time, they said Windows is probably corrupt and is not under warranty.

    Thank you!

  • Satellite Pro A60 with departure problems and weird sounds

    Hi all
    Three days ago, as I was using my laptop as usual. Then I restarted and then... just a black screen with an error message does not find a file any (I don't remember exactly) and making some weird sounds (such as the ' clicks')... sounds came the HARD drive I think because it's the right hand...
    I turned off it again and then some other error message (the black screen, white letters) asking for a file system... and weird sounds continued.
    tried twice... same thing... then after 20 minutes after being off of I it works... no error messages... but a long wait to get through the initialization of windows...
    now no more problem reboot... not more weird sounds, but with some performance issues... it has 1.2 GB of RAM and seems like he 'lost' speed... I can't use my iTUNES to listen to music cos is not working properly... I am now using winamp...

    Comments please... I got appreaciate it...

    Hi Luis

    On this path, it is not easy to tell what's happening. On this forum you will find several comments on missing files in the startup.

    You can try as a first step to restore the operating system on time earlier (before this problem started) by using the System Restore tool.

  • External Usb Audio Card Popping and cracking sound with Satellite L500

    Greetings,

    My name is Boyan and I am from Bulgaria, and a year ago, I bought a laptop satellite l500 series (I can't tell which is exactly the model at the moment because my computer is not currently with me and my user manual, the only thing that is said is that it is for L505/L500/L500D / L505D.) But from memory I think it was the Satellite L500D-ST5506 which is currently not at my dispossal, because I gave him for repairs for the same problem that I say down below)

    The problem with my laptop, is that when I plug in a Usb Audio card in my laptop I have a crackling sound during live sound is played hollow map external speakers/headphones. I tried several sound cards and speakers/headpohnes which work perfectly well with other computers, including laptops, but the problem continues even when I use an external sound card to connect to the laptop not appearing in my laptop speakers/headphones.

    The problem is important only when the signal passes through an external audio card and it is very disruptive since I use my laptop to create music and I bought a sound card expenssive and speakers that can not be used with the laptop. I tried 3 types of sound cards:

    M-Audio Fast Track Pro

    BEHRINGER uca 222

    and a simple 3d audio usb audio card external and the problem persists.

    At first, I thought that the problem is software and I should install the new drivers, windows 7 automatically recognizes and installs the drivers for the devices and I have its in (but with the cracks and educated) so I tried using the official drivers sold for me with the sound cards, but without success: the problem was still there. I tried to find the new drivers of the sound cards on long official distributors and I downloaded it but the problem was still there. Then I tried to delete all the audio drivers on my computer and just use the external sound card for sound but this eighter helps force. I updated my drivers for my sound card build - in as well but again - no luck.

    After substantial thing frist I did when (2 weeks after I bought the laptop) was to contact the store where I bought my audio card and they said that the problem may be so eighter latency or high voltage of the laptop they advised me to try to reduce the latency of the parameters or to try and see if the problem persists if only my laptop running on battery power. I tried two things, and they did not help. Audio cards worked without problems on all the other computers I tried them but me. So they told me that the problem could not be audio cards.

    What I then was that I gave my laptop for the Distributor official of toshiba in my country so that they can solve my problem. What they told me, is that a problem with the version of windows which was preinstalled on my laptop and it was not compitable with the sound cards (which was bizzar survey because I tried them on the same windows and they worked, only on other computers). So I'm back from my laptop and passed under my Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit operating system to Windows 7 Ultimate edition 64-bit and Windows 7 32-bit Ultimate edition on all versions, that's the problem: whenever I activate a low of passes of audio signal and Audio Usb card he heard cracks and educated. I even tried isntalling Windows XP, but the laptop want spesific SATA drivers for the Windows XP installation which although I found - they helped me install XP and I didn't go the BIOS of the computer to try to put a new and so on, because I'm not sure about that and I could lose my warranty so I said in the official repair shop for Toshiba in my city to put XP on my computer to solve the problem but they can't because they are not liscened to work with software that isn't a recipt for its purchase (which I did not because I bought my windows xp a long time ago and I lost the recipt)

    I gave her to get it repaired for the second time by telling them that the change of my operating system has not solved my problem and what they were doing was they changed the motherboard on my computer, indicating that the build in the device realtek audio on my computer is good enough to support a card usb audio or it may be broken and they change the whole motherboard because the generation of card is stuck, so they did it, but my problem has not been resolved. They told me that although I use and map external audio usb signal always going trough my only internal and I have to disable so I tried to disable this trough Control Panel, but this does not solve the problem and I don't have a BIOS option to disable my sound card build-in. Another thing I thought that maybe the problem is that two audio cards do not work on the same bitrate and Hertz so I put both cards to 16 bit 48000 Hz DVD quality (also tried the other options on the 3 cards that I have) but it's the same thing.

    They told me that it's just my luck and the construction of the sound card does not support this external sound cards and I would had been more careful when they choose to my laptop first.

    I couldn't accept this awnser for several reasons:

    (1) this sound card works on a lower version of windows and are supported by many older models of Realtek and a lot of old computers (one of them bought 2000! and my laptop is of 2010!)

    (2) the guys who were the apperantley of fixing problem don't go so deeply into my problem because they didn't know that in fact the problem was that only they knew that there is a problem with the audio card and the computer interact with them, they knew not that it cracks during the direct play the external audio card.

    (3) I can't accept the fact that Toshiba is manufacturing of models with maps audio chipset that cannot support a simple external Usb Audio card. It is totally unacceptable to me, and I sincerely hope that this is not the case!

    (4) they have tried my audiocards on another laptop of the same series, claiming that they have not at their dispossal at the moment so I'll go tomorrow at a local store and try the sound cards by myself on the same computer in the store.

    What I have now, it was that I gave my laptop for repair requesting a statement of the problem in wrtting with details of the problem so I can go to court or ask for a new laptop, but I'll be charged with little money because according to them there is no problem in the laptop and the problem is that my external sound cards are not compitable with the build in house chipset sound card. If I give my laptop for repair, and there is no hardware problem, I'll have to pay the money. I will do this, but I'm now crazy, because that does not solve my problem and I am wasting time and money.

    What I ask here is, if you can not help me solve my problem and advice me what to do to fix it, please give me the details of the chipset built in Driver sound card on my motherboard, so I can check if it is compitable with my external sound cards and contact the dealers of the sound card to ask them their opinion. Or if you can tell me what it is compitable with and what not, that would be great. Personally, I think this laptop should have no problem at all with a simple external usb running sound card, but I ask you, if you know something more about it.

    If a problem with the build in chipset then Toshiba is manufacturing (or at least sell) audiocards which are not in a normal standart but unfortunately I can not do nothing except complain to Toshiba and never treat whith such productgs more. Otherwise, if this is not true, then my laptop has a problem that is different and I have to go to court with the mans for mounting repair is not my laptop or do not give a new one when I guarantee will not fault of Toshiba and it will be in a way solve my problem.

    I hope that you understand how important it is for me and I hope I have fix the problem as soon as possible.

    P.S

    I want to say that I am familiar with grammar mistakes, that I did in the text below, and I would ask your excuses that I'm not a native speaker of English.

    Hi, I would just say that I had a similar failure although I wouldn't be surprised if she causing of yours, but you never have knowledge, my fault was the lid of my laptop [9 months], it contains the mic and when the lid has been in a certain angle cracks could be heard worse when I got my external sound card all the time it happened, luck, PS, it's a defective membrane [lid to the body] easily missed by engineer because he was the same angle you English is very good

  • Satellite L500-1EJ - Looking for Windows XP driver sound

    Hi all

    I am newly joined here in the forum and I'm looking for a driver for my laptop model Satellite L500-1EJ I bought last year here in Doha.

    I'm really surprised that the model number is not available in Toshiba driver download website! ??

    Can someone help me please? I use Windows XP, service pack 2 now.

    Concerning

    Hi shihabuhashim,

    Why the model number is not available on the Web from Toshiba site? Where did you look?

    I checked the Web from Toshiba site and I can find:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers
    Laptop > Satellite > Satellite L Series > Satellite L500 > PSLS0E > Windows XP
    (Satellite L500-1EJ belongs to the PSLS0E series)

    Now download the audio driver you need, but it s recommended installation of Service Pack 3 before you begin with the installation of the driver, as it contains important updates.

  • Cannot Flash the BIOS on Satellite L500 due to low battery

    Hey all,.

    Obtained as Satellite L500 (PSLS0A-084002) here. I have the battery not charging issue and everything what I find point to an update of the BIOS.

    Of course, there is a new BIOS for download from the drivers of laptops. So I have the file WinPhlash "sl500 (mv) _bios_w210.exe. However, by running the fact falling before flashing the BIOS with an error number: 144.

    It is because of the battery is bellow 10% charge however I can't it above 10 percent fee that the laptop does not recognize it.

    There must be a way of to WinPhlash running without check. I read that you can run it with the "/ forceit" switch and who will be ignoring the error, but that was for some time and it seems WinPhlash have changed this as she always spits the error.

    I read running back help but after creating a boot cd back, he claims the exe cannot be run from BACK (ffffuuuuuuuu!).

    Any help appreciated. Thank you =).

    Maybe it sounds silly now but there at - it something serious, why you want to update the BIOS on your machine? I mean if everything is OK, why do you need new BIOS?

    In any case, I'm don't know if this will help but please try to remove the battery and check if the update of the BIOS starts if your laptop works on AC only.

  • Satellite L500-13V - his stutters and sometimes portable lock

    His stutters all the other songs when playing music, stuttering sometimes results in the laptop locked up and stuck on the nasal sound. Only way to turn off is to remove the battery. Vista 64-bit installed. Nothing installed other that what came with the laptop.

    Must be a driver issue, but no update.
    Any ideas before returning for refund?

    Hello!

    I checked the Web from Toshiba site and there I found a update the sound card driver. This driver is already installed?
    In addition, the Web of Toshiba site shows me updating BIOS for Satellite L500. You should try this update, maybe it works.

    Alternative I would try the Realtek audio driver directly. Maybe on the Web from Realtek site, you can find a newer version.

    Good bye

  • Satellite L500-12F will beep for 10 seconds

    This is my first posting of time on these forums. But for me it is quite an urgent issue.
    This afternoon my laptop (Satellite L500 12th) beeps for 10 seconds. Now, to be a bit lazy and reading a book will excuse me it'd be natural, while the sound was rather piercing. Well, I'll get to the point: I sat down earlier and the laptop just started a sound signal. For each a different length. When this happened the frozen screen and it does not seem like there was a way to disable. I turned off and cool in quite awhile, but now as I started it up it did not at the windows screen until the beep came back and I had to turn it off... This happens every time. IM starting to think that something melted, or it's a virus. But I'm not good at these things!

    Any help on this would be much appreciated, more the better soon.
    Eddy
    P.s. I did not know exactly where this post.

    I don't understand in the history on which point your startup laptop beep.
    Start your laptop and enter the BIOS settings and leave it on this scene. Is anyway laptop beeps?

  • Satellite L500-01u012 - problems of audio output

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L500-01u012 and I have problems with the audio output.
    When I plug a headphone or audio output in the audio output port, it does not neutralize the internal Laptop speakers.
    It's really annoying me and I wonder if there is a way around this?

    I have windows 7 Home premium 64-bit sp1 with all the latest patches to update, and I tried to remove, restart and then reinstalling the driver several times without success
    I also got the image of the plant cell to try to fix that and its still nto work.

    I downloaded the drivers from the toshiba support site, but they did not help

    Hello

    Is this something new or you have noticed this problem in the past too?
    Generally by default the internal speakers should be turned off when you connect earphones.

    I put t know what laptop do you have exactly (model number you wrote may not be the right) and what sound card is inside, but please check the audio options in the Panel.

  • Satellite L500 connection ok but no Internet after upgrade to Windows 7

    Hello
    I just upgraded my Satellite L500 to Windows 7 everything is fine except that I have no internet access. I have a strong connection to my wireless home network and can connect to other wireless devices to the network ok. I also tried to connect using cable, but I have the same problem - connected but no internet access.

    I ran ConfigFree utility and it does not find a problem. I ran the troubleshooter in Windows and it is unable to solve the problem but tells me that the wireless network doesn't have a valid IP configuration.

    I have reset the modem and the router, without effect.

    I checked all the drivers and BIOS are the latest versions.

    I tried to enter an IP address manually rather than get an automatically. Still no luck.

    Any ideas I can try? I hope someone can help.
    Thank you.

    Hello

    For me it sounds like that the problem is the router, and not the laptop because you wrote that with cable connected even happens on WLAN connection.

    If you go into the menu of the router, what is the status of the internet connection? Your router has a connection or not?

  • Satellite L500 - stop and a fan problem

    Hello.

    A few months my Toshiba Satellite L500-1 stops frequently due to overheating, which occurs when the intensive use of the laptop (for games, photomanipulation etc..). However, I don't know what I can do about it. I won't open my laptop, unless I am told to open my laptop computer to perform a specific task.

    Today, my cell phone off again. However, when I turn back I noticed that something happened with my fan. At this point, my laptop doesn't overheat not quickly as usual. Instead of 90 + % fanspeed there around 58-60% (depending on the Toshiba PC Health Monitor). However, I noticed that something happened with my fan. After that I noticed that the fan will sometimes be a trigger, that sounds once every 10 minutes when the laptop is under heavy use.

    What should I do now? It worries me, I'd be worried about it? Perhaps another user from Toshiba with a similar problem can give me support. I'd be happy.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what may be the problem.
    When you use your laptop do you use desktop space?
    Do you use it with power supply?

    What power profile do you use when laptop stops?
    Have you tried changing the settings of food or something else?

    Before you start using it intensively have you tried to terminate background processes, disconnect the devices, just to see if that will help?
