Satellite A40,running windows xp,webcam problem

I have a webcam and a fujifilm finepix camera that can be used as a webcam. I cant get either to work on my laptop. When all the software is downloaded and it should start working the screen goes blue with white writing on,I cant read it because the laptop turns off straight away. I have downloaded updates from microsoft and fujifilm, nothing works. I can get them to work on a ordinary pc running Windows Me, but i am wondering if it is a problem with the laptop hardware and not the windows version? Any help gladly received.

Hi,
you can try to use the differet USB ports. It can be that only one or two Ports can handle a Digicam!
Otherwise you can chck your USB drivers in the Device Manager at Control Panel!

  • 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?!

  • Unable to restore Satellite laptop running Windows 8.1

    I have recently acquired some malware on my laptop, and after several unsuccessful attempts to remove it have decided to try to restore the machine to factory settings.
    Unfortunately, I did not create backup media when the laptop was new and the recovery media creator only appears to create a recovery for the system as is.
    I attempted to refresh the laptop using the inbuilt recovery tools, but got an error "The drive where windows is installed is locked. Unlock the drive and try again".
    Then I attempted a reset and got "Unable to reset your PC. A required partition is missing."
    I did not create any recovery media when the laptop was purchased, so do not have this.
    I do not have a 'clean' system image to for a system image recovery.
    I do not have a previously created restore point for a system restore.
    Automatic repair appears to only deal with issues booting the system, but still got an error "Automatic repair couldn't repair your PC" as I was trying anything at this point.
    Please can anyone offer any advise of any other route that I could take to restore to factory settings.
    Thanks

    Huh...it is pretty complicated situation now. Problem is that there is no some special workaround and you cannot force recovery image installation. Either it works or not.
    It is a pity that you didnt create recovery media. This is the first step that everybody should do after notebook purchase. This recovery media can be used in such complicated situations.
    > Unable to reset your PC. A required partition is missing
    For some reason recovery tool has no access to recovery partition or saved recovery data.
    What you can do now? To be honest I see only one solution there: to order new original recovery media for your notebook model. It can be done on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

  • No Sound on Satellite U205 running Windows 7

    I have tried re-installing the sound driver repeatedly. I tried installing the Windows XP driver, the Windows Vista driver, and the Windows 7 driver. None of them work. I own a Toshiba U205-S5022. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

    Satellite U205-S5034 
    I recovered windows with recovery CD but no sound in original windows
    Did the sound work before you installed Windows 7?
    In Windows XP, open Device Manager (devmgmt.msc) and expand Sound, video and game controllers. Do you have the ADI audio device? If so, double-click it and tell us what Device status has.
    Try both of these drivers.

  • Satellite A305 running windows vista home premium...Cant get sound out of headphones anymore

    for the last 2 months i lost sound in my headphone connection. even when i insert the jack in u can still hear it from the outside.

    Have you checked the HP Website and Microsoft Support websites to see if they have any solutions to your problem? Since there could be multiple things causing this, I would check at the places I mentioned first and see if their knowledge base contains an answer.

  • Satellite L850 running Win 8 - Cannot get BT working

    Hi,
    just bought a new Satellite L850 running windows 8,
    Can not get Bluetooth working.
    I have downloaded Bluetooth driver and BT stack, driver seems to install ok but still no Bluetooth anywhere too be seen. The BT Stack for Toshiba tells me that it will not work with my operating system.
    Can not find a download of BT stack for windows 8.
    need help with this one
    Thanks

    According notebook specification your notebook has BT but originally it was delivered with Win7 so I presume with Win7 there is no problem.
    Ive also checked support for your notebook model and obviously it is not supported for Win8 and drivers are not listed for this machine.
    Have you used Win8 drivers offered for other models?
    Maybe stupid comment now but I recommend you to stay with Win7.

  • Running Windows Server with Hyper-V on Toshiba Laptop

    I will soon be in charge of a Windows server that my company is purchasing to run SQL Server off of. In order to further prepare myself, I want to get some extra practice outside of work with it. However, I'm thinking that my computer's requirements may
    not be up to par - and I can't really afford to buy a new computer at the moment.
    I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop running Windows 8.1 with an AMD A6-5200, 4 GB RAM and a 600 GB hard drive (HDD, not SSD). I have the book Training Guide: Administering Windows Server 2012 - and it suggests a computer with at least 8GB RAM. Also - the books
    examples and exercises use Hyper-V for virtualization.
    If my computer couldn't handle doing the exercises and examples - would Windows Server 2008 be a better idea? If so - could you point me in the right direction of guides/books/tutorials for Windows Server 2008 system administration?
    Thanks,
    -Chris

    You can try running the VM with only 2GB of Memory. Also, make sure that no other program is running in the same time other than your hypervisor. You might see some slowness on the VM that way but it should be good to do some practices.

  • Webcam problem with Thinkpad L530 running Windows 8

    Hi,
    I have a L530 running windows 8.  I'm trying to activate the webcam with Skype.  Skype doesn't recognize the webcam.  I went into the Start "page" in windows 8 and use the "Camera" win 8 app.  The app displays a big camera with a diagonal line going across it, which to me meaning that the Camera app has problem using the camera.
    I've gone into the controll panel/Device manager checking for Integrated Camera.  The device status says "This device is working properly".  The driver version is 1.0.0.19.  
    I'm not sure what to do.  Any help is greatly appreciated.  thanks.

    Hi, whto
    This sounds like the camera is set to Private mode, which is a security feature to block the camera from any potential hackers. To change this setting, go to the Lenovo Settings metro app and open it. There should be camera settings in here. Select the camera and make sure the camera is not set to Private.
    Hope it helps,

  • Satellite A40-210 - How to recover XP but disk turns out to run Windows 98?

    Ok, I've got a dinausour: Satellite A40-210 But hey, it ran just fine until an antivirus wiped out something crucial (or at least that's what I think), as Windows is no longer able to startup.
    Now the error is given: system32\Drivers\Ntfs.sys is unavailable or broken.
    I still got my recovery-disks (all 3 of them)
    1: tools&utilities CD-Rom
    2:product recovery CD-Rom 1
    3:product recovery CD-Rom 2
    Nr 1 is not responding as reboot and the Product recovery CD-Rom 1 turns out to "recover" Windows 98.
    Thing is, I would like to recover at least photos and some documents and whenever possible: get to use it again with all the programes etc that were installed on the hard-disk...
    What/how to do this?
    As the message of '98 frightens me: this will delete all previous info on disk.
    Help, please!

    If moving the hard drive to an external enclosure is not convenient, it should be possible to use a Linux live CD to find your files and transfer them to a USB drive.
    I managed this with an old laptop whose Windows 2000 installation stopped working. In that instance, it was simply a matter of booting from a Linux live CD (I used Puppy Linux, as it has modest RAM demands). Once the Linux system was up and running in RAM, it allowed me to mount the Windows partition, and to read the files and photos I wanted to recover. It also allowed me copy those files to a USB flash drive.
    Easier than I expected. And meant that, with my date safely copied elsewhere, I could relax and try to repair/reinstall the Windows system.

    Hi. I am running Windows 8.1 on a  64 bit Toshiba Satellite P70-A laptop with 16Gb of RAM. I have installed Adobe Creative Suite 6 - Master Collection. All is fine except for Adobe Acrobat X. It runs OK  for a while, but then suddenly it won't work. I uninstall it, re-boot and re-install again, bit the same process repeats itself and once again I have to uninstall and re-install again. I don't know if windows update interferes with it? Has anyone else had a similar problem? Is it fixable?

    I think you'd be much better off asking in the Acrobar forum, Acrobat

  • HT1689 I can reach the iTunes Store from my iPod Touch, but it will not open on my PC running Windows 7.  Message shows that iTunes has stopped working.  This happens every time.  I have updated iTunes Software.  Will not solve the problem.  What is wrong

    I have uninstalled iTunes several times and reinstalled it on my PC running Window 7 with all updated loaded.  When I click on the iTunes Store Box, Nothing happens except for a message that reads:
              iTunes has stopped working.
    The following items give me a choice, but no answer comes up.  The computer will shut down the website.
              "Check online for a solution and close the program"
              "Close the program."
    There is an item below the box that is selectable for View problem details.  When clicked a long list of items show up.  I have listed some of the problems as written, but I do not understand them.  I know the iTunes Store has been available on earlier versions of of iTunes but is not on this version.  How can we go back and download an earlier version of iTunes?
         Here are some of the Problem Details:
         "Problem signature:  APPCRASH
         Application Name:     iTunes.exe
         Application Version:  11.0.1.12

    I had this exact same problem.  I found this fix and it worked for me.

    Browse to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support and copy the filen named QTMovieWin.dll. 
    Step 2:

  • Can any one help me with CD/Audio disc playback problem on media center m8200n running Windows Vista

    I have HP Media Center m8200n Dest top running WINDOWS VISTA HOME PREMIUM 32 BIT edition.It  has MEDIA CENTER and MEDIA PLAYER. I experience problems with the computer being able to play CD music discs.  What happens is that the Disc will play only for 63 seconds exactly and then stop playing the track, the player will then skip tracks, settle on another one, play it for a few moments and then skip to the end and then play nothing. It gives me an error message that it cannot read the disc.  This happens with any and every standard store bought CD new or used. These CDs also do play on my laptop running basically same operating system.  This happens whether I trying to Play a disc or burn the disc to the hard drive.  The drives work great though as they do play DATA discs all the way through. MP3 discs play fine.  It also plays the DVD movies with no problem. Windows media player doesn't make it work, also installed VLC player and REALPLAYER to try some other players and they also don't work for music, only DVDs. They all only produce 63 seconds of music play back  from a disc. I've already tried Changing ENHANCEMENTS, UPDATING DRIVERS, UNINSTALLING THE DISC DRIVE and then re-installing back into WINDOWS but none of that helped. SYSTEM came with the integrated REALTEK HIGH DEFINITION AUDIO on the mother boad for multi channel playback options and I've downloaded those updated drivers again but that doesn't do anything.  Thinking it might be a hardware drive problem I purchased a new LG BLU-RAY DRIVE/BURNER super multi drive which plays fantastic for any video format from Blu-Ray to regular DVD format with the Power DVD software but the machine is causing even this new drive to have the same problem with the audio and it cuts out playing the audio disc within the same 63 seconds running audio disc. . There seems to be a software glitch and I'm wondering if you can help.  Also the sound card seems to work perfectly fine. I downloaded I-Tunes and copied over audio files to the computer via my flash drive and when I play those files from the hard drive, or even the sample windows media files which reside on the hard drive in MY MUSIC, all files play through perfectly, fully, and with great sound. Audio out jacks in back of computer work fine as also does the front head phone jacks upfront. Something in the software when playing a audio disc/file through the dic drives???? I've got hundreds of CD and it's a bummer not beng able to lay them through the system. Does anyone think moving from VISTA PREMIUM to a upgraded version like ULTIMATE or even going up to Windows 7 might solve problem??? What about the 32 bit verses 64 bit editions??? My system should be able to run in the 64 bit frame work also. THANK YOU in advance!!!

    Hi,
    All dimms work individually?  Did you run a bootable memory diagnostic to determine the reliability? Did you run a diagnostic on the hard drive?  I believe that your PC came with PC Doctor and that you can create a bootable diagnostic disk. Did you create that disk?  Be sure to purchase memory dimms from a manufacturer that will stand behind their product with a guarantee such as Crucial, Corsair or Kingston. Buy directly from the manufacturer and they will stand behind the guarantee. Be sure that all of the dimms are identical. Use CPU-Z to determine that the specifications are indeed identical.
    You have some options to consider once you can stablize your PC for updating the BIOS.
    Locate a hard drive and use the HP external recovery media to build a VISTA system. -- safest method
    Use a VISTA repair disk and at the command prompt try executing the HP BIOS update (Admin). -- safe
    Try a bootable BIOS update process as suggested at this site. --  less safe but doable

    Problems with Photoshop CS2
    I originally purchased this software several years ago. At time I was running Microsoft Windows XP.
    This computer recently was replaced with a Dell running Windows 8.I reloaded my CS2 on this computer & it ran fine with a few exceptions as follows;
    when the software comes up initially I get a message that says “could not complete your request because of program error”. Hitting OK allows me to continue using the software .
    When I try to activate a function using CTLR or ALT keys I get this message “required application failed to load and the product cannot continue. Please reinstall the application”. This causes the application to abort.
    Reloading my CS2 continues to generate the same messages when I depress the CTLR or ALT keys.

    Your original copy is obsolete and Adobe is offering a free replacement you are entitled to. Download and use that and that should clear it up for you.
