16GB SODIMM anyone interested in pushing TOSHIBA together to update BIOS

Hi,
Anyone interested to convice Toshiba to update the  BIOS Memory Reference Code routine to recognize the new 16GByte SODIMM modules released by the memory company I´m Intelligent for the differnet product lines including laptop Satellite?
We could have 32GB with two slots.
So, please answer the ones interested and stay tuned.
Thanks.
KR,
RI

Thanks, Jerry, for the quick reply.
Before I posted my original question I had been through all available downloads/docs for my Satellite and read up on the Battery Manager feature on some of the Toshiba notebooks.
My Satellite does NOT have the Battery Manager feature/app among the many Toshiba-branded utilities.  Only "ecoMode," which doesn't appear to do much exept trim down power consumption, and "PC Health Monitor," which reports info on battery charge level, etc, and allows access to Windows power management plans for tweaking.  But no Tosh-branded Battery Manager application...
What I'm trying to determine is whether it could be ADDED to my machine, by updating BIOS to a newer TOSH version (maybe that's a bad idea), or by downloading a utility app for a newer Toshiba laptop, or both?
"Officially" it appears that the Battery Manager (and therefore, Eco Charge) was not available for my older L505, but what I want to know is whether I could add it somehow?

  • Anyone interested in working on a LabVIEW book with me?

    Hello
    Several months back I began working on a LabVIEW training manual and
    after becoming busy with other things, progress has stalled out. I am about
    70 pages into it.
    Here is what I have so far.
    Chapter 1 - Introduction (could probably use a little more work)
    Chapter 2 - Number Types
    Chapter 3 - Strings
    Chapter 4 - Booleans
    Chapter 5 - Arrays
    Chapter 6 - Structures (about 75% done)
    Chapter 7 - File I/O (havnt started)
    I envisioned this much as an introductory manual for someone who has never
    used LabVIEW before. I have my own business in which one of the things I
    had hoped to offer was LabVIEW training and thought that it would be more
    cost effective if I could produce my own training manual than have potential
    students buy a 3rd party book.
    I'm not sure what to do now with what I have but these are my ideas.
    1) Finish and polish what I have outlined above myself and see if I can sell
    individual copies. I think that this would be appropriate for college
    courses
    using LabVIEW with a need to quickly teach LabVIEW newbies enough
    to create vis for small experiments. Perhaps tailoring custom chapters to
    show
    how to use the classes particular hardware.
    2) Find one or two people interested in working with me to make something
    considerably more substantial, getting into advanced programming concepts
    and
    hardware programming concepts. This would continue to be a commercial
    project.
    3) Turn what I have so far into an open project. Divvy up the chapters and
    subchapters
    to individuals to really hammer out into something nice. This has a lot of
    appeal for
    a lot of reasons. I dont think it would be too difficult with the effort of
    10-15 people
    working a couple hours a week to produce a free document that is better than
    all
    the books currently on the market.
    What do you say? Anyone interested in working on this project with me? I
    think it
    would be a great service to the community.
    Send me e-mail or respond to this thread so I can get an idea of the level
    of interest.
    Make sure you let me know your LabVIEW background and what sections you
    would be interested in working on. Suggestions for future chapters are
    welcome, too.

    I'm willing. 5 years experience doing GPIB and card-based DAQ along with
    playing with niceties like ActiveX, both for external app control and to
    expand the available selection of front panel controls. Reasonable amount of
    time at the moment though I'm looking for a new job [anyone hiring? ] so
    that may change.
    A commercial book that gets published is better on the CV than a free one so
    I favour working towards the former and doing it as a comprehensive work
    that goes into depth. But at the order of 1k pages it's a formidable task.
    Publication indicates a publisher thinks it's worthwhile; producing a free
    book is an indication only of lots of free time to most people

    ActiveX could be the basis of two chapters- "how/why to do it" and a
    reference to the common apps and controls. The latter however is essentially
    a reference to a load of M$ products and M$ may protest. There's a
    continuous trickle of ActiveX messages online so it's probably worthwhile.
    One problem is, is there actually a need for another Labview book? You've
    started this simply as a tutorial handout to make the cost of your course
    appear less. Personally I've not read all of the supplied documentation and
    have not bought any Labview books. Aside from the crap "case study" thing NI
    produce. There's a few out there already, and I'd need to be convinced the
    project is worthwhile before pitching in!

  • Adobe Captivate LMS Compatibility Guide - Anyone Interested??

    Why is it so hard to find information about Captivate LMS Compatibility?
    I'll admit to being somewhat frustrated with the lack of easily procurable information about how to make Adobe Captivate content compatible with the plethora of LMS products now flooding the marketplace.  (There are over 100.) I had hoped for years that Adobe would put up a site (or at least a page or two) that listed LMSs and laid out the correct settings in Captivate to use for each one.  Sadly this hasn't happened.  And the search function on this forum seems to be broken, which makes it more than hard to find information about a given named LMS.
    So in desperation I've decided to try and provide a venue for this type of information myself.  I'm going to reserve a section on my website at www.infosemantics.com.au for information specific to Adobe Captivate LMS Compatibility.  I'll be listing anyLMS products there for which I can procure information related to using Captivate.  Headings on each LMS page will overview the LMS functionality, compatibilty with SCORM or AICC standards, any known issues with compatibility with Captivate content, what Cp quiz settings other users have found work successfully, as well as any modifications to templates, or workarounds that have proven useful.
    Naturally, I only have access to a small number of LMS products for testing. So I'm enlisting help from any LMS users on this forum to provide suggestions and information collaboratively.
    Here's what I need from you:
    Simply go to http://www.infosemantics.com.au/contact and leave a message stating the brand and version of LMS/s you use, and a contact email address where I can reach you for information on how you got your Captivate content to work with it.  I will add a new page to the LMS Guide covering every LMS for which people offer information and add the info under each heading.  Each LMS page will also allow comments so that other users can offer feedback and suggestions.  If the volume of response is to high for mere comments, I can add a forum for each LMS where users can exchange information on what worked for them.  User's interested in a given LMS can subscribe to that page so that they will be notified via RSS of any updates to information.
    I intend to create test projects in Cp5 that have various combinations of Quiz Settings which (according to user feedback) SHOULD WORK on each LMS.  You'll be able to download these zipped SCORM or AICC packages to test on your own LMS as well as the Captivate project files (cp and cptx format) used to create them, so that you can see the settings used.  Hopefully this will help you to debug compatibility with your own LMS.
    You can also leave a message on the contact form if you are trying to use a particular LMS but haven't had much success and would appreciate getting information about it.  I can't promise to find the answers, but someone else that chimes in might be able to do so once they know you're looking.
    My sincere hope is that over time this resource will build into something that will save a lot of time and angst for every Captivate developer trying to work with an ever-growing number of LMS products. More and more clients have them.  But it's a minefield out there.
    Anyone interested in participating in this attempt?

    No, I'm not only concerned with Cp5's LMS compatibility.
    I intend to put up information about all Captivate versions that anyone can supply information on.  Most likely this will be from about Cp3 onward.

  • Toshiba L305 stops at BIOS splashscreen

    Hello all,
    My L305 won't boot past the BIOS splash screen. Pressing F2 or F12 does nothing.
    All lights appear to be functioning normally. The HDD light turns on for a second then is always off. It appears there is no disc activity.
    What I have tried:
    -Boot from CD: The Cd spins and sounds like it is reading it but nothing happens.
    -Reseated RAM and HDD (one at a time so I would know if one or the other fixed the issue.)
    -Replaced RAM and HDD with known good components (same results as above.)
    The CPU fan is kicking and airflow is good.
    Is there anyway to update the BIOS from this state of booting or does it seem more like a MOBO issue?
    thanks,
    John
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Here's the file. When you run the  exe file watch closely, it should offer you a choice to do the automatic Windows update, or to create a bootable CD. But, I think there is a timer, so that if you don't respond quickly enough, it tryies the automatic Windows update.
    If you can get the your machine to boot off the CD, it may work. If it works, after the update, the program will want to shutdown or reboot. Regardless, on the restart try to press 'F2' again as soon as you see the Toshiba logo to enter BIOS Setup, in the setup press 'F9' to load BIOS setup defaults, then press 'F10' to save and exit. Then try to boot into Windows again.
    ACPI Flash BIOS version 1.80 for Satellite/SatPro L305D/L355D
    Good luck.

  • Anyone notice distorted bass in songs after updating to iOS 5

    I have a 4th gen Ipod Touch and just upgraded to iOS 5 today. When I play a song the bass sounds all distorted and rattles as if I am using incredibly cheap headphones or something when I am using good quality Bose headphones. I did not notice this in iOS 4. Has anyone else had this issue, and if so, how did you fix it. I am thinking or resyincing and setting up my ipod as a "new ipod" to see if that works, but have to wait until after work.
