Qosmio x870 WLan driver update needed due to WLan issues

Hi,
I have this notebook since 3-4 months now and one problem is annoying. My wlan works sometimes good and on another days totally weird.
The indicator shows 3 of 4 bars as example, but the i got no connection. When i start chrome or firefox nothing is loading. After a restart its working normally. My router works with another old toshiba notebook and my pc.
I checked with avast and anti malwarebytes my notebook and it should be clean.
I saw that toshiba updated all driver, but there are too many of them. But I dont know which ones i have to install.
Are those display driver of toshiba the same like nvidias packages or is something missing?
I want to update it too, cuz some games get better performance. Should i use nvidias driver or the ones of toshiba provided. On another threads i saw i have to update first intel and nvida driver. Is that right?
I tried some months ago to install such driver on my pc, but lenovo has own driver too and it didnt worked. I dont want to "destroy" my notebook^^
I hope someone can help. Sorry for asking again, i didnt found right forum :)

> I saw that Toshiba updated all driver, but there are too many of them. But I dont know which ones i have to install.
You have to take the one which is released for the Wlan card.
So what WLan card do you have? You can check this in device manager in the Network Adapters area.
Furthermore its really interesting to know what Qosmio X870-xxx do you have exactly?
Regarding the display driver question:
This should be discussed in another thread which you have already started.

  • Satellite L300 - Which WLAN driver I need to use?

    I reformatted the drive and installed Win XP Professional and updated the BIOS. The Realtek 8187b Wlan driver is not recognised in the device properties. There seem to be three different brands of drivers listed but do not know which one is te correct one.
    I made sure the WiFi switch is on. (Fn + F8 does not work).
    Any help appreciated.

    Hi Klaas-bcs,
    Your notebook belongs to PSLB0A series and therefore you can get all drivers on Toshiba Australian page:
    http://www.mytoshiba.com.au
    Youre right that there are different drivers listed but if you have a Realtek WLAN card you have to download the Realtek RTL8187B Wireless LAN Driver
    Check this!!!

  • Driver update for Win 7 USB issue on nVidia chipset systems now available

    This patch is needed for the TouchSmart 600 AIO Desktop series if you haven't installed it.
    http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Lockups-Freezes-Hangs/Driver-update-for-Win7-USB-issue-on-nVidia-chipse...

    The update is not part of the desktop Win7 update disc from MS or HP  - Microsoft has not yet integrated it into Win7, and it is not yet available on Windows Update (it is likely to hit there sometime in January).   It was available too late to get it out on HP Update before the holiday break.  I don't believe there have been any rolls to the Win7 upgrade disks.   I do recommend (while still on Vista) running HP Update and installing all applicable updates  - PRIOR to doing the Win7 upgrade.  Also - I'd double check the drivers page for your system for any Vista updates as well,  best to do any driver/BIOS/Video BIOS updates prior to the Win7 upgrade process.  I know that some of them were created before Windows 7 was out - and may not want to install if it sees the newer OS.
    As to the fix - this could manifest itself in many ways - but essentially - this resolves system flakyness with USB devices attached .  Some internal devices (card readers, touchscreens, some Wireless LAN interfaces) connect via USB - so they could be affected, even if you haven't hooked up anything to your system externally.
    Not sure just what problems you were experiencing, so can't say this was the cause (and will be the fix) - but if it applies to your system - I'd definitely give it a shot.    I checked a couple of systems that had this update - I see it now on the software drivers and update page for them, so it looks like it rolled out OK.
    Happy Holidays...

  • Satellite P50-A-144: Intel WLAN driver update solves unstable WiFI

    The notebook Toshiba Satellite P50-A-144:
    The current Toshiba Download Driver version is the 16.5.1 (OEM Version) and is already installed on the notebook, and the current Intel Download Driver version is the 16.10.0 (generic Version).
    *This new version solves the problem of unstable WiFi/WLAN Internet connection.*
    Will Toshiba have available soon the OEM version updated to the 16.10.0?
    Thank you.

    Intel has released as of 06/26/2014 a new Driver Version 17.0.5.8 and
    Toshiba up to 07/12/2014 still has not updated the corresponding Toshibas OEM Version,
    either the previous Intels older Version 16.10.0.5 has not been updated by Toshiba.
    It seems the Drivers update by Toshiba takes very very long time until they are ready to download on the Toshiba Support web page.
    Unfortunatly, Intel does not recommend to install the generic Driver on Toshiba-OEM Systems, because they do not provide support in case of issues after installation, and suggest to get the Update directly from Toshiba, so there is no other chance, just to wait for the Update until Toshiba released the OEM-Version.
    Are there other alternatives?

  • HELP: Driver updated needed: 1.0 TB USB 3.0 Basics Portable Hard Drive - HDTB210XK3BA

    Hi,
    I have been using the above harddrive for 2 months with no problem on my laptop.  4 days ago it stopped being recognised - is now the 'F Drive not Toshiba -  an error message told me it needed re-formating. For the next 3 days, however, it was working on another laptop, but now the same issue has come up and I can no longer read or extract files from it.
    I can see it under Computer Management on my laptop, and - on scanning -  a message tells me the device is working well (hence assuming there is no phycical damage). My auto updates tell me that I need to install a driver for it, but when I try via the Windows device manager it doesn't come up with the suitable driver. I also tried to get this via Driver Installer, but it wants me to pay for this - surely there is a free driver out there for me?
    Advice? Help? I have 1/2 a TB of info on there which I would really hate to lose.  The fact that it is visible under Computer Manager and did continue to work on another laptop gives me hope.
    Sorry - not a real techie so simple and easy to follow support would be much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Amelia

    Hi Peter!
    I just opened my driver S/N Z33YSFHZSTT1. I read the instructions, but did not find anything saying that I would not be able to delete anything after backing up. The fact is that There is now that !!CAUTION, DO NOT DELETE....." I need to start all over again, since I did not intend to leave all this stuff on the drive. I read the solution you gave to one user, by sending you a screen shot of the windows. I want to send this screenshot to you, but I don't know ho to bring up "explorer" in order to open windows and get the screenshot. I am using Windows 8 and very new to it...
    How do I access "explorer" and what to do in order to get the screenshot?
    Can't I just use the drive a a storage divice? 
    Thanks for your help. 

  • This driver is blocked due to compatibility issues

    Hi,
    I have Toshiba Satellite model with Windows Vista home edition.I keep getting the above error message with:
    Driver: StarForce Protection
    Publisher: StarForce
    Location: Not Available
    and my Laptop also unable to locate the DVD disc Drive. Please let me know the solution.
    Thanks...
    Leena

    Hi,
    this is a known problem between The Starforce Protection and Microsoft Vista Operating System.
    The Starforce driver which is on your CD/DVD is not compatible with Windows Vista.
    You need to search a Vista compatible driver from Star-Force.
    I tried to find one for you, but it seems, that all Starforce Websites are down.

  • M50 Bios 1.9 Update question due to multiple issues on 1.7

    Hi
    I have a Satellite M50-196 that I got only a few weeks ago and I've been experiencing many issues. The current Bios version on the laptop is 1.7 and from the bios page for M50 series I can see that there is a version 1.9.
    I had to remove XP home and installed my copy of XP Pro with SP2. Everything went great. Everything works perfect except a few issues. Here goes:
    - First the Wireless Adapter has some sort of problem because when I connect to my home network from time to time I have to run repair connection on windows because it gets really slow. I have a 4mb cable connection at home and usually it runs at 400k... but from time to time stops completly and starts again after a few seconds and some other times gets as slow as 40k. This is not an cable provider issue or wireless base station issue because I have a desktop computer that uses wireless also with no issues. This happens with the laptop connected to the power supply or running on batt. I have the latest Intel 2200BG wireless adapter drivers.
    - The second problem is when I close the screen. The laptop should go to stand by but instead the standby light never gets orange and the laptop is completly locked. The power button stays blue, it does not shutsdown the laptop or turns it on even after leaving the button pressed for many seconds (15-20). The only way to solve the issue is to remove the battery completly and attach is again.
    - The third and final problem, so far, is with Virtual PC 2004 with SP1. The virtual machines run very slow, and the processos usage is most of the time at 99%. The time on a virtual PC goes faster than normal then it blocks completly and starts again. For example 10 seconds goes by in 5 seconds then it blocks for a few seconds. This behaviour seems to be happening with more people using centrino laptops with 915 chipset and some manufactors already fixed this. A guy on another forum reported that he fixed a DELL laptop with a recent bios update.
    So because all of these I'm considering upgrading to version 1.9 of the bios but before I do I would like to know if anyone had any issues with this upgrade, and would also like to know if its safe to run the windows bios update. I know its suposed to be safe but I would like to know if anyone ever reported any issues with it and what precautions should I take... like for example... is it important to remove the bios and hdd passwords?
    Thanks in advance and sorry for the long post :)
    Best regards

    Hi Thanks!
    I just got the adrenaline rush of the day by the way....
    I've open the zip file with the 1.9 bios and ran setup... it just asked me where to uncompress it that by default is to c:\windows\temp and does not let me change it...
    I pressed ok and I was hoping to get a chance to see exacly what it would do.... but to my surprise it just started to backup imediatly the existent bios and uploading the new one without any warning!!!!
    This is a realy dangerous pocedure. If I didnt had the power cable connected or if I didnt had closed my programs it would probably run anyway with all the potential problems that this could bring.
    I didnt managed to change the bios and HD pasword, because I was hoping to do so after cheking out the procedure and reading the expected readme file with change log and stuff like that... but the good news is that it maintained the passwords.
    The VPC issue seems to be solved as well the closing the screen and entering stand by mode.
    The wireless network issue seems solved for now but only time will tell. I had an issue that after returning from stand by the wireless network was not working. I rebooted and seems fine now. Ill keep this link with me just in case. Thanks.
    Toshiba people... if you are reading this... please fix this issue with the bios setup on windows. I would like to see a warning and the option to start the bios upgrade myself, instead of starting it automatically as soon as setup ends, I would also like to be able to select where to store the files and where to put the backups and finally I would like a warning to close all software, plug the laptop to the power supply and stuff like that.
    Also why not provide a change log of some sort? I dont know what this bios fixed. Seems that fixed at least some of my issues... I think... but what else? I cant find anywhere on the website any info regarding what as included on the update
    And no I didnt pressed any keys or mouse buttons after or during the install. I was very carefull with that believe me :)
    R2D2.. thanks for your help !
    best regards

  • [MB Air 2013] Windows 8 says I need a Boot Camp driver update, but download is unsupported

    Hi all,
    I'm on a brand new 2013 MB Air running Windows 8 64 bit with Boot Camp.
    Windows is running fine, but I just recently noticed that I had a message telling me I had a driver missing and needed to update Boot Camp.
    Now, this computer is less than 1 week old, so I checked my Boot Camp verison first and it does say that I'm running Boot Camp 5.
    Just to compare the drivers, I downloaded the suggested update (from Apple, Boot Camp 5.0.5033) and put it on an extra USB drive.
    When I compared the drivers, the new download did contain significantly more drivers for various hardware(most of which I don't have), so I tried to run it from the USB drive.
    At that point I got the "Boot Camp x64 is unsupported on this computer model error".
    I'm running Windows 8 64 bit, so I don't see why BCx64 is unsupported, and I'd really like to get the "driver update needed" message resolved.
    Am I being directed to the wrong dowload? Do I even need this one?
    Should I be running an update through OS X even though the message is coming from Windows 8?
    Any ideas on how to proceed would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    The actual answer is if you look at the download page at the bottom, you will see a link for supported devices.  You will notice that the Macbook Air 2013 is NOT listed.
    This upgrade does not apply for the newer MAcBook Air.  The current driver set you have is correct.  No upgrade is necessary.  It is only for the older Macbook Airs.
    Hope this helps.

  • Satellite Pro 6000: Cannot find correct WLAN driver

    Hi,
    I have re-installed Windows Xp on my notebook Satellite Pro 6000. All is working except for the wireless connectivity.
    When looking in the device manager, I see that the WLAN driver has not (or incorrectly) been installed.
    So looked at the Toshiba site for the corresponding drivers, but I am not able to find the correct one. I did found some drivers, which seems to be the one, but unfortunately after installing the drivers, the wireless connectivity is still not available.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards, Robert

    Hi
    I dont believe that you cannot install the Wlan driver.
    Go to the device manger and find out which Wlan card was installed. (check properties)
    If the WLan card is placed under network adapters so the driver was installed properly.
    But if you see a unknown device in device manager so you need the WLan driver.
    Then download the WLan driver from the Toshiba site. Be sure that you use the right driver for the right OS!
    You can try firstly to uninstall the old driver and then to install the new one.

  • Searched for driver updates - do I need them all? Qosmio G30-175

    Hello people, new Toshiba user here.
    Last week I bought a Qosmio G30-175. After a Bluetooth installation problem everything is fine.
    I updated BIOS today to v1.70 (even though the Windows version wouldn't work)!
    I thought I would do a search for any driver updates and I find that 86 updates appear!!!
    Could somebody tell me whether all these updates are merely available for use, or does my particular laptop require all these updates?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi
    What?? 86 drivers??
    Are you sure? I have checked the Toshiba driver page of Qosmio G30-175 (PQG30E) and found only 50 drivers for Windows XP MCE.
    But the list of 50 drivers contains double entries! For example there are 2 BIOS, 2 LAN drivers, different modem drivers, etc listed.
    You should install only the drivers and utilities which are listening in the Installation instruction document. This guide line is important and you should follow this guide line if you install the Toshiba drivers manually.
    You will find the document also in the driver section

  • Ok so I have a free standing iSight Cam, is it possible to use it with my white MacBook ? and if so how do I go about it ? I've tried researching for updates, drives but need help.

    Ok so I have a free standing iSight Cam, is it possible to use it with my white MacBook ? and if so how do I go about it ? I've tried researching for updates, drives but need help. Can someone give me some direction ?

    jpatricio787 wrote: ... is it possible to use it with my white MacBook ?...
    OK so yes, but if, and only if:
    (1) your MacBook has a Firewire port (not all do)
        - and -
    (2) your old external iSight camera works (not all do)
        - and -
    (3) your MacBook is working properly.
    If you are not certain whether your MacBook model has Firewire, you can search MacBook Technical Specifications for your model.  Alternatively, check the  User Guide Manual that came with your MacBook for the information you need to be certain.
    If you are not certain that your old external iSight camera works, you can test it using the suggestions in this link.
    jpatricio787 wrote: ... if so how do I go about it ? ...
    Follow the instructions in your iSight User's Guide to connect and turn on the iSight.  Then launch the Apple app you want to use with your iSight.  If you need more information about using an app, search for "camera" (without the quote marks) in the Help menu choice for the app.
    jpatricio787 wrote:... Can someone give me some direction ?
    If you need more direction, post back the specifics of what you still need.  We will offer further direction based on the details of your reply.
