Satellite L100-P443 - GPU not recognised correctly (950 945GM)

hello, i have a question for my laptop. the catalogue of toshiba notebook says my model has "intel graphic media accelerator 950 up to 128MB shared VRAM" installed.
but in my device manager, inside control panel, it shows my display adaptor is "mobile intel(R) 945GM Express chipset family".
why is this not matching with the catalogue?
and also where can i download latest display and sound drivers for my laptop? please give me the website if you know it, thanks everyone.
james lee

Hello
Like you know many notebooks use Intel platform and you can noticed that there is word family. Now the question: have you checked Intel page to see which graphics cards are listed under 945GM Express chipset family?
In my opinion you should check Intel page to learn more about Intel hardware platform. I have no time to search it for you but believe me there is no reason for panic. To understand why this not matched catalogue you must have enough hardware knowledge and know how it works exactly.
Latest driver you should find on official Toshiba download page. Satellite L100-P443is not known to me and it will be interesting to know in which country you have bought your notebook.

Satellite L100-113 does not start after memory upgrade

Hello.
Our integrator bring to our company memory modules KVR800D2S5, but notebook doesn't start :(
I read manual - this notebook supports 533 PC4200 memory modules.
But SO-DIMM 533MHz will be delivered only in a month...
What memory modules we can install to Toshiba L100-113?
Thank you.

Hi
I think the notebook does not power up due to a faulty or not fully compatible memory module.
Please check this 3rd party memory website:
[Memory for Toshiba Satellite L100-113|http://www.orcalogic.co.uk/asp/prodtype.asp?prodtype=22360&ft=m&st=3]
As you can see the Satellite L100-113 memory can be upgraded up to 2GB (2x 1GB) and you have to use the DDR2 533MHz (PC2-4200) 200-PIN SODIMM
Regards

Satellite M-series does not start correctly

Hello,
I have the following problem: suddenly (don't know why, nothing changed) Satellite notebook shows black white screen with about the following:
(sorry, translated from german):
windows did not start correctly... due to software or hardware change.. pls choose last functional configuration if mistake was due to power shut down...
But this does not work, also all other options (start windows as normal, start in safe mode...did not work.
No idea what happenend !
Problem:
Actually moved to another country and forgot or lost recovery CD ! already contacted Toshiba for new one but maybe anyway somebody can help?

Hmm. Stupid situation. If possible try to obtain Microsoft WXP installations CD to see if you can start installations procedure properly and if you can use repair option too.
It is not easy to say what is wrong there but I just hope there is no problem with HDD. Try to use original recovery disc.

Satellite C50 - Secure Boot not configured correctly Build 9600

Hi,
Recently purchased a refurbished Toshiba Satellite C50 running windows 8.1 operating system. Was very pleased with it but found the message 'SecureBoot not configured correctly Build 9600' in a watermark in the bottom right corner of my desktop.
Decided to search the internet for a resolution and after going on 3 troubleshooting sites, found out about the BIOS Setup required, however it warned that this was for advanced users who know their stuff about the technicalities of computers. Whilst I am computer literate, I'm not someone who likes to mess with the advanced options. Then, I stumbled across a reliable computer blog which had a detailed post on SecureBoot.
( Link to blog and specfic post:
www.techrepublic.com/blog/windows-and-office/deal-with-the-secureboot-isnt-configured-correctly-watermark-in-windows-81/ )
I thought this would resolve my issue, and I will admit it did help, telling me to use windows powershell as a precaution before using the BIOS setup. I was glad I did as it came back telling me that I have a non-production SecureBoot policy present on my laptop in which case I would have to ask for technical support for a system specific solution which would typically be a firmware update.
I did try to phone, but the line was very busy and felt it might be easier to post this issue on a forum.
If anyone has an answer please help as I really would like to enable SecureBoot if possible, as I believe computers should be set up with the best security options possible and it makes me feel comfortable knowing that it is set up securely.

Someone commented the blog and posted this solution:
The registry fix to remove the watermark is as follows.
1. Start the Registry Editor with Admin rights (C:\Windows\regedit)
2. Navigate to the following path
-> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ System.
3. There, the two values " ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin "and" EnableLUA "set to" 0 ".
You can also try to enable the secure boot option in BIOS (in case its not already enabled)
To get into the BIOS, press F2 while powering ON the unit.
Additionally recommend checking this Microsoft page:

Desktop screen on my Satellite C660-174 will not open correctly

I'm a newbie here so my question may be obvious to some,,,,but not to me!
My Satellite C660-174 laptop (running Windows 7) has stopped opening correctly. Everything is normal up to the point that my password is typed in. Instead of opening up to my 'desktop' with its icons all down the side I get a page with a 'Toshiba Leading Innovation' banner across it and just four random icons down the side.
How can I restore my desktop screen and all the icons?
Help will be appreciated.

It is really not easy to understand what do you see exactly.
Can you please make a pic and send some link where we can see it?
I really don't understand what could be the problem but what you can try is to start your machine with F8 and enter advanced boot options. Choose the entry "Repair your Computer" and press "Enter". Go forward until you will enter System recovery options. Try to make system restore to earlier time. Maybe this will help you to fix described issue.

Satellite A105-S4211 Will not keep correct Time

I have a Satellite A105-S4211 running Windows XP SP2. A few months back, it stopped keeping the correct system time. I suspected it was the CMOS battery. How do I replace the battery? Can it be replaced?

Try DFU mode and then restore to factory settings/new iPod. Not from backup

Toshiba satellite 2450-s203 does not recognise atheros wlan card

Hi!
I have a toshiba satellite 2450-s203 and there is an embedded atheros wlan card -somewhere in the laptop-.
However, I am running win xp pro and the device manager DOES NOT FIND THE CARD!
It finds the ethernet card and a 1394 net adapter!
But not the WLAN card!!
Any ideas?! I have downloaded the wireless card's drivers from the site but with no luck!
What should I do?!
thanks!

Hi,
The W-lan card is optional to this model eg. it's not included in all machines. You need to purchase the correct module to get W-lan to work.
If the card would be installed in the machine, You should see either a yellow esclamation mark (!) or "unknown device" if You have uninstalled hw.

Satellite M30-107 does not boot correctly after Recovery disk usage

Hi
I've recently got hold of a second hand toshiba Satellite M30-107 laptop, and decided to freshen it up.
I used the toshiba recovery disk, but after doing so the laptop no longer loads windows.
When turned on it shows the Toshiba start up disk for about a second then goes to a blank screen and freezes.
When turned off and on again a screen comes up reporting an error in shutting down and gives the options to start in safe mode etc. but choosing any of the options causes the machine to freeze.
Any help or advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks
jt

Hi
Sounds a little bit like the notebook does not boot due to the Windows software issue
Did you recover the M30 with the original Toshiba recovery CD which was supplied with this M30 unit?
Maybe Im wrong but for me it looks like a wrong recovery CD was used and an image with non compatible drivers was installed
You could try to install the OS from original Microsoft Win XP CD and could check if it would be possible to get the notebook ruining using clean OS.
In such case we ( you and me ;) ) could find out if this issue could be related to the software or hardware.
Bye

Satellite A30: Dual Monitor not recognised by windows

I feed the second monitor output from my Satellite A30 to a frame converter for generating a composite video signal. In order for windows to enable the second monitor output on the laptop I have to have either a monitor or a projector attached. Is there a simple way of providing a 'dummy' device to trick the laptop into thinking it has a second monitor and removing the need carry extra kit around.

I agree with you, to display the output on the second output can be done with the FN+5 keys. I am extending my desktop to the second graphics port so that programms such as powerpoint can "Display on second monitor" whilst opperating from the primary screen. The problem is that in order for the second port to be recognised by windows it has to have a monitor plugged in to it, but I have only got a SVGA to Composite video frame converter & the laptop dosen't recognise it as being a valid monitor.

It is not easy to say what is wrong there especially if this issue with display occurs from time to time.
In my opinion there is some problem with mainboard. It can be display connector that doesn't work correctly and there is no proper connection.
For me it sounds like loose display connector on the mainboard (warm/cold). As you can see after 40 minutes you can see the pic. When mainboard is cold again there is proper connection.

Disconnected license does not recognise correct username

Hello,
I've recently had a disconnected license file created for a standalone laptop with no internet access. This file is locked the the user "nick.brown". I've tried changing the user account to nick.brown, however when I go onto the license manager it says that the file is locked to the user account "nick.brown" and that the current account is called "User".
Can anyone help me so my account name is the same as on the license?
Many thanks,
Nick.

Hey Nick,
Could you consult with your VLM manager that the correct procedures were followed?
There's two knowledgebase articles on this. Do you definitely want a user based license or could you also create a computer based license? This might be a little easier or at least another method to try.

Extermal Toshiba USB 320 GB HDD not recognised correctly

My hard drive does not now recognize itself as a hard drive anymore just a Cypress AT2P RC42 and so is now useless after a couple of months use.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled through device manager. I then tried it on another computer and I have the same problem, therefore it is the hard drive and not the computer.
It is an external USB toshiba 320GB drive which previously worked fine but now thinks its something else and nothing else.
What can I do to rectify this problem? Please help all my data is on this drive.......
