How to activate brightness in Vista with Satellite 5200-802

Hi!
I am using a Toshiba 5200-802 and i have installed VISTA on it. it works fine except that normally in XP, there is a *Toshiba key option (FN key + F7)* that makes the *_screen brighter_*, and this does not work in VISTA.
When Vista starts, the Default light settings are not set to *MAXIMUM* so the screen is rather dim. I really need to be able to set the screen to maximum.
Can someone help please to show me what software or setting i can use in vista to achive this? I would be very very happy to get a reply!
thanks,
Ronald

Andre,
Thanks for the tips. i was able to install and run Vista on it and other than the issue explained it works fine!
I would go into the BIOS, but it doesnt seem to be possible to enter the BIOS of a 5200-802 toshiba. no message comes up during startup like most other pc's. I have also tried all F keys and it doesnt go to the BIOS.
i checked on the internet and another guy on another forum also was asking how to get into the BIOS - no one replied.
So if there is a way, i do not yet know how. very fustrating indeed since i bought this machine new 4 years ago for like 4000 euros!

    If you had already removed the device from 'Find My iPhone' in iCloud, then you jus tneed to powercycle the device in order to activate it.
    Source: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515
    "After the device is removed from the previous owner’s account, turn the device off by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button located on the top-right side of the device. Then restart your device and proceed with device setup as you would normally."
    If it has not been removed, then the activation lock is still active.
    If the previous owner cannot remove the device from their account there is nothing you can do unless the place you purchased it from will give you a refund.
    Activation Lock: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5818
    What if I purchase a device that is still linked to the previous owner's account?
    Contact the previous owner as soon as possible and ask them to erase the device and remove it from their account. For complete instructions, read how to remove a device from a previous owner's account.
    How do I check for Activation Lock before purchasing a used device?
    When purchasing an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from someone other than Apple or an authorized Apple reseller, it is up to you to ensure that the device has been erased and is no longer linked to the previous owner’s account.
    Follow each of these steps to make sure that you can use the device you purchase:
    Turn the device on and slide to unlock.If the passcode lock screen or the home screen appears, the device has not been erased. Ask the seller to completely erase the device by going to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been erased.
    Begin the device setup process.After choosing a language, choosing a country, and connecting to a network, the device will begin activation. If you are asked for the previous owner’s Apple ID and password, the device is still linked to their account. Hand the device back to the seller and ask them to enter their password. If the previous owner is not present, they can remove the device from their account by signing in to icloud.com/find. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been removed from the previous owner’s account.
    You will know that a device is ready for you to use when you are asked to “Set up your iPhone", “Set up your iPad", or “Set up your iPod” during the device setup process.

  • Satellite 5200-802: Keyboard and touchpad dont work

    Hi everyone.
    I was hoping someone could help me with a problem I'm having with my Satellite 5200-802. The Keyboard will not work evn though it shows in device manager and report it as working fine. I have updated the BIOS and tried a lot of other basic stuff so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    It may be worth mentioning that I also cannot get my touchpad driver to register.
    Many thanks.

    Hi
    Do you get an error message or do you have any bed signs on the screen?
    Can you use the keyboard to access the BIOS?
    If yes then the keyboard was recognized and works!
    If you cannot use the keyboard running OS then I would recommend to delete the keyboard device from the device manager and to restart the notebook.
    After new OS reboot the keyboard should be recognized again.
    But I think that you will be not able to access the BIOS.
    Due to the fact that the touchpad does not work too, I presume the hardware is faulty or there is no connection to the motherboard. Maybe a lose cable
    Maybe you should check this. But note; if you have no experience contact the notebook technicians. Bye

    Hi
    Can somebody help me ? How is it possible to modify the contrast on my new notebook Satego P100-491 OS Vista Nvidia
    Gefore go 7900 gs Driver 7,15,10,9748. Following the help goto the Nvidia control panel option display and change the settings but there is menu for "adjust desktop color settings.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    with that old XP drivers it was possible, but now.. you can try it with these color settings, but I am not sure if you would have that success.
    I tried already to do some things like you (some Contrast, gamma, etc.) but I think they did not implemented that functions at the moment in the Vista drivers.
    So, maybe we just have to wait...

  • How do I use Windows Vista with Lion?

    Hi - I wonder if you can help. I want to use a copy of Windows Vista I have through Bootcamp but have recently upgraded to OS X Lion.
    I understand Snow Leopard supported Vista and if I had installed Vista prior to upgrading it would continue to work even though I was running Lion - however having upgraded to Lion I now cannot install Vista thtough Bootcamp as the Windows Support Software for Lion only supports Windows 7 (and I don't want to spend the money for that!).
    So my question is - can I reinstall Snow Leopard, install Vista on a Bootcamp partition and then reinstall Lion without having to pay for it again? Will reinstalling Snow Leopard destroy the Lion recovery partition? Or can I simply go back into the App Store and redownload Lion from my account as I have paid for it already and not having the recovery partition therefore doesn't matter?
    Your help would be greatly appreciated.

    You can also keep Lion and Lion Recovery by installing it to an external drive.

    You may also see this message, with workaround:
    Lion + Bootcamp: disk cannot be used
    Before upgrading to Lion, making a bootable clone would help avoid some problems.
    Boot Camp 4.0 drivers are Windows 7 only.
    I don't see that you can't just partition with BCA 4.01 and not install, then get out Vista (again?) and use your 10.6 DVD. You can still use Boot Camp 3.0->3.2.

  • How to activate i phone 6 with wifi

    i can't activate my i phone 6 using wifi net work

    Is there a sim in the iPhone? You need a sim in the iPhone for the iPhone to
    activate. The sim does not have to be associated with an active wireless account;
    however, if the iPhone is locked to a wireless provider, the sim must be from
    that wireless provider.
    If you do not have a sim, borrow one from a friend/relative/co-worker for the few
    minutes it takes to complete the activation.

  • How to activate link to cFolder/cproject in microsoft windows explorer

    Dear Expert,
                       Could you please tell me how to activate cFolder/cProject link with Microsoft File Explorer like EasyDMS?
    Thanks in advance..
    Bhuwan Tiwari

    The high level steps are as follows. Please let me know if you need more details.
    1. Transaction SICF- Activate service /default_host/cpro
    2. Define external alias referring to /default_host/cpro (/cpr_webdav for example) and make sure the correct client and target element ( /default_host/cpro) is selected
    3. Set the URL under the IMG Make settings for the WebDAV interface. The last part of the URL will be the external alias that you defined.
    4. Login to cFolders and navigate to any collaboration. Under "Additional Functions" button you can obtain the WebDAV URL
    I could not get this to work by simply mapping a network drive. However it works fine if you install the Netweaver portal drive client which will map the network drive for you.
    Hope this helps

  • How to recover Vista on Satellite L500

    Hello guys,
    I bought a Satellite L500 with Windows Vista...unfortunately I am not a Vista-lover, so I installed the good old WXP.
    However, I forgot to burn a copy of the vista-version.
    Then I realized that there are no xp-drivers available for the Satellite. So I installed the vista-drivers. Almost everything worked, except the graphics drivers.
    My notebook, of course, now uses the default graphics drivers from windows, but now everything is distorted.
    Now my question: Is there a way to recover Vista? Of course, I own a product key that I have acquired with the purchase of the notebook.
    I have also a Vista CD from my other computer, but it does not accept the product key from the notebook.
    Thanks for your help!
    ps: Sorry for bad english ;)

    @xaver
    I have a original Microsoft Windows Vista DVD, but if I install Vista with this DVD, I must activate it after approx. 2-3 weeks of Vista online. If I give the key which stands on my notebook comes an announcement that my key is invalid. I think this is due to the fact that the notebooks have a kind of protection and therefore only the Vista version functions which was from the outset on the notebook.
    I think it really sadly that there are no drivers for WXP.
    Nevertheless, the choice of the operating system should be with the customer: (
    @ZiglioNZ
    I do not believe that I still own this partition. As this activation came I had to develop the hard disk and delete completely. Otherwise I could not even have installed any more WXP.
    Nevertheless, already thanks:)
    I hope somebody has one more idea

  • How can I unistall Vista from Satellite L300-11Q and install Windows XP

    Hello!
    Help please: How can I unistall Windows Vista from my notebook and install Windows XP?
    Should I do something with discs and BIOS before it, or I can just format disc C and then install XP from CD-disc?
    How can I make a recovery disc before uninstalling Vista?
    Thank you very much!

    Greetings,
    I had such a hard time finding exact information on downgrading Vista to XP recently, I'm posting this on several different threads in hopes I can save others some time and effort; sorry for cross-posting.
    When installing XP over Vista, instead of worrying over getting Intel Matrix Storage, streamlining a CD with it and SPII, blah, blah, blah, why not just go into BIOS at startup and switch the SATA setting under Advanced Disk Management from (whatever the default is) to "Compliant"? This allows the XP install to see the drive as an IDE, (actually ATA), and POOF! Your problems are solved with a LOT less hassle. (The XP install disk DOES have to have Service Pack II on it.)
    I just did this over the past weekend, and it worked great. (Actually I didn't have much of a choice, as the processor on my Toshiba is an AMD, not Intel, so all the downloading and configuring CD's with matrx storage in the world wouldn't have done me a bit of good; the AMD processor "chipset" is contained within the graphics driver setup.)
    Save yourselves a lot of time and headaches and forget the whole matrix storage thing. As far as I can tell it would also work with an Intel processor, but since you can "turn SATA off", IMHO it's a huge waste of time mucking around with the matrix storage. If you want full SATA configuration after all's said and done, you can always go back in and turn the BIOS switch back to SATA after you have XP up and running and have just used the executable to install the matrix drivers.
    Cheers,
