Re: Satellite P300-156 - grainy display and vertical lines on it

Hi,
everytime I 1st start up the machine the display looks grainy and with 1 green line vertically down the right hand-side of the LCD.
When Vista completes start-up (with my white desktop background), there is lots of pink coluring on icon, when I press "start" and it displays the programs etc, the abckground is all pink! Also the pop-up web cam settings/opener is displaying the same.
To get rid off this, I restart the machine and all if fine. This is the only way to rectify.
Over the last week I have again tried to look at the problem...
I have changed the LCD, Harddrive (upgraded to 320GB), and updated the BIOS with latest version of this site. Now, it wil still do the same, but after 30 seconds (or so) it automatically sorts itself out.
I really want this sorted, has anyone got any ideas???
Thanks in advance!

Yes, when I changed over the screens, the same problem happens, but the odd things I that previously it would not automatically sort itself out, I had to restart the machine and then it would be fine (all the time, until the next day). NOW, since I again done a complete install (via cd ordered from Toshiba), and installed updates via TEMPRO including the BIOS, it seem to correct itself after approx 1 Min???
I also took out the memory and put back in, checked screen cables by pulling out and re-connecting.
I will try this eve on an external screen (my LCD TV via HDMI) and see what happens...
Thanks for your reply to my headache

Satellite P300 -156 Windows 7 Crash Problem

Hello,
I have the Toshiba Satellite P300-156 PSPC4E model, and i have had this laptop for a couple of years now.
Before installing windows 7 i had the default Windows Vista installed, and it worked fine.
Now since installing windows 7, ANY game i try and play just causes the laptop to just go black screen and shut down after about 5 - 10 minutes of playing.
I thought this was due to an overheating issue... so i opened the laptop and cleaned it all out, and then put it back together again.
(YES i have checked all wires are back in where they should be and all components are working properly)
This didn't work.
Then i tried updating all my drivers, and software ect.
Still nothing.
I've trawled through pages and pages of search results for the same problems with Windows 7 and game crashing... but nobody seems to know how to fix it.
I thought it was just windows 7, but i re installed windows vista and it's still doing the same thing on there now.
I've tried installing all the drivers from toshibas website for this model laptop and no luck.
My windows vista and windows 7 are both genuine copys.
All the hardware is working normally (as far as im aware) and i really can't see what can be causing this problem.
If anyone could give me some advice on what to do it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi
Which display driver you are using? Im not P300 owner but on my A300 I had a similar issue that the notebook crashed during playing a game. It seems that the reason was a 3rd party driver or lets say the driver from the graphic chip manufacture directly. I think because they are not pretested on the notebook and causing overheating
So I would recommend installing the latest display driver from the Toshiba website.
Last but not least which Windows 7 version (32 or 64bit) you have installed and which BIOS version?
The Toshiba website shows also new BIOS versions and different versions for 32bit and 64bit OS. Maybe you have to update/change it Who knows?!

Satellite P300-156: Vista wont start after installation of Toshiba Tempo

Hi
I have a new Satellite P300-156 which I have been using for about a month with no problems. It has been great.
This morning I had a message come up to install Toshiba Tempo which I did and all was fine until I restarted the laptop and now Vista wont start.
I have followed all the diagnostic tools, tried system restore etc... but still nothing.
I currently live in Italy, so is hard to take it into a computer repair shop as I dont speak Italian and the operating system is in english.
From what I can see my only option now is to do the TOSHIBA HDD Recovery, but I would loose some data which I have done since my last backup. Is there any way to backup data to a usb storage device using command promts before I do this, or is there a simpler way out of this?
Any advice would be great.
Thanks
Keith

Hi
Thanks for getting back so soon, however, F8 does nothing when starting. I have an option of F2 or F12, but neither gives me options to access last known good configuration.
Is that the same as a system restore from the Vista system recovery options as I have tried this (gives you a list of last known configurations). But still no luck.
If I do the TOSHIBA HDD Recovery function do I need a disc for this?
thanks

Table data needs to be displayed with horizontal and vertical lines

Hi,
I need to display the data of the table in the SAP script which is having both horiziontal and vertival lines.
the out put needs to looks as it in Excel...where there are multiple records with 5 fixed coulmns each seprated from one another by horizonalt and vertical lines..
Can you let me know how to proceed in SCRIPT ,,,, where the number of records might vary ..and also ..it might continue to second page..
Regards
Senthil

well it is possible but quite tricky.
All you got in SAP-SCRIPT to achieve this is the BOX-Statement.
The BOX statement works with variables for XPOS, YPOS, WIDTH and HEIGHT. what you need to do is:
- calculate those variables during runtime
- add box-statements with those variables.
to calculate those variables you need to count used lines and so on. i hope i showed you a way, rest is a lil brainwork then.

Unibody Macbook Pro 17inch Display problems, vertical lines and artifacting

Hey everybody
I bought my 17inch MBP at B&H in June (week before WWDC, D'oh) and it was working fine until I came over to Ireland to work on a editing job for the summer, as soon as I attached it via mini display to a second monitor I started getting artifacts and vertical lines in certain shades and colours on the macbooks display, its gradually gotten worse so much so in fact that it is nearly unusable.
I have seen the thread about the firmware update, but my computer is already up to date with that but it still has this problem, I contacted apple and was told to take it to the apple store and the genius bar in Belfast, as helpful as the rep was he told me it would be two weeks for a repair, by replacing the logic board. Which I just can't do as I've only got three weeks left on the job and need my mac every day. I've searched and it seems no-one is having this problem except me since the firmware update, but clearly my machine still has problems.
Never had a problem with all my previous Mac's but I'm close to tossing this in the bin please help because if I can't get this solved I will have to move to PC and install my copy of AVID on it as this is the only other available computers at this production company.
What to do? Has anyone else had this problem recently? Or know of a fix for it? I've tried everything downloaded the firmware told me its already installed, switched the graphics displays etc etc
Please help
Thanks
Tom Lindsay

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
It sounds like there is a hardware problem of some sort with the graphics chips, and the only real fix is going to be to replace the logic board. So at some point, you will have to send your Mac off for repair.
In the US, you can sometimes arrange to get a loaner. You might ask if this would be possible where you are, since the repair is going to take so long.
Unfortunately, I don't know of anything that would fix your problem other than a repair.
Good luck!

Difference in GL Balance display and GL line item display

Dear All,
Can any one help me why the difference between GL display and GL line items display?
Thanks in advance
regards
Elan

Hi,
You can do the following:
1. carryout gl balance carryforward from previous to current year : Use t.code:F.16
You can cross check the fs10n balance with FBL3N balance from previous years. Assume these balance are matching for previous year 2007 and 2008, you have this problem only in 2009, then you can carryforward this balance from 2008 to 2009 once again. Some times users may post some adjustment entries as per the auditors recommendations. If this balance is not matching from 2007 itself, then first carryforward the balances to 2008 then 2009. You can run this transaction no of times.
2. check the master data of gl account through t.code:FS04, whether any changes has been done to line item display field?
If you find any changes to line item display field then run the program "RFSEPA01" to get all the line items.
3.If your issue was not resolved even after the above two activities, then let me know the sap version you r working.
all the best
Prasad

T.code required for Vendor line item display and Customer line item display

Hi Gurus,
Pl provide me transaction code for "Vendor line item display and " Customer line item display apart from FBL1n for vendor and FBL5n for customers.
Kindly advise.
Regards,
Samar

Hi,
You could use these, for example:
S_ALR_87012103 - List of Vendor Line Items
S_ALR_87012197 - List of Customer Line Items
Just curious: what's wrong with FBL1(5)N?

Pdf files print with horizontal and vertical lines

All of a sudden, today, when I print pdf files, they print with horizontal and vertical lines. I thaught it was the computer or printer. So I printed from another computer on the network, and printed to a different printer with the same result. It is not just that one pdf file either, I have tried multiple files. HELP. Does anyone have any ideas?

It is not clear how you are creating the files. It appears that they were created by Distiller from PS files that were created in some way. I also noted that you are using AA8.1.0. You may want to try to update (do all the updates in order) as a possible fix. It may be in the creation process also. Several packages will split large graphics into parts and create the image. I think this is a characteristic of OFFICE 2007 (docx) files - but I am not sure yet. Tell us how you created the files - step by step, including the scan.
If you have the original documents, why not simply print to the Adobe PDF printer. The result would be smaller and a lot cleaner.

CRXIR2 - A chart with horizontal and vertical lines?

Good morning,
Is it possible to create a chart with horizontal and vertical lines?
I have a chart where the Y-Axis show the percentage and the X-Axis shows a timeline.
The horizontal line shows the percentage for the points in time.
Now I would like to mark some special points in time on the X-Axis with a straight vertical line.
Is there a way to do that?
Thank you very much in advance
Christoph

Hello Usama,
unfortunatelly I couldn't find that that feature in the basic chart features.
Also the webpage www.3DGraphics.com doesn't exist and I had no luck to google for 3DGraphics.
It's a little strange, that it seems to be possible to draw one additional horizontal line with the basic features, but no additional vertical line.
for example.
If the main chart would be y=3x+1
It seems to be possible to draw e.g. y=5
But I see no chance to draw x=5
In addition, to make it a little more complicated, I would need to have that dynamically, based on the values of a sql-statement.
thx
Christoph

One of first versions of macbook air with black horizontal lines on bottom one third of screen and vertical line also one third of left side of screen

one of first versions of macbook air with black horizontal lines on bottom one third of screen and vertical line also one third of left side of screen

Hi
I've recently notice I have a thin black line in my screen.. I went to Apple store and was told it’s a hardware problem (400$+ to fix as no warranty).
This is the second time I’m having hardware screen issues with a Macbook Air (last time it was 3 months after I bought it, and it was replaced with this one)
Looks like the Macbook Air screens are very problematic! Anyone experience something like that?
Thanks,
Eyal.

Satellite P300 156 PSPC4E - White Media LEDs stay on after power-off

HI
I have a Toshiba Notebook Satellite P Series P300 156 (PSPC4E) which has just developed a problem
When I power off, the laptop shuts down normally and power button itself goes off, but the 6 white media LED's to the right of the power button remain on constantly. The only way to get these to turn themselves off is to disconnect the battery.
Can anyone please advise
Many thanks

Thanks for the replies
I tried altering the BOIS, but that only affects the illuminated strip along the top of the mouse touch pad.
I cant remember which version of BIOS that I got (I'm at work at the moment) but I tried downloading the latest from here (dated 18/03/10), and it made no difference.
Its a strange one. The lights stay on even if the laptop is closed for long periods. They just never go off, unless I take the battery out.

Satellite P300-156 - Cannot install any OS

Hi
i have had a P300-156 for some time now.
It was fine up untill recently, when the DHCP client stopped workin and wouldnt start,
So i tried to restore from disc and had no dice with that attempt.
So i attempted to recover from HDD again no luck the laptop keeps freezing after the install.
So i tried to install Ubuntu on the laptop but again same problem, linux says "Buffer error I/O sdo" ??
I'm not sure what that is, it did however manage to wipe the entire drive.
And i cannot XP to install because it wont find the HDD.
So the situation is that i have no recovery methods and cannot install another OS.
Guys im really confused about what to do here, so if anyone can help please i need it.

Hi James
Im not quite sure if your HDD died or not but you should know that your Win XP Setup will not recognize the HDD too if the SATA driver was not included.
The point is that your P300 was equipped with the SATA HDD controller and the SATA driver is necessary and needed if you want to install any of the operating system.
The SATA driver is a part of the Intel Matrix Storage Manager.
So if you want to install the XP on your P300 you should firstly include the SATA drive into the XP installation CD.
This can be done very easily using a free software called nLite.
This Toshiba doc would be helpful for you because if describes step by step how to include a SATA driver;
Check this:
