This behaviour is normal and it is nothing unusual. On this forum you can find enough threads about it.

There is no reason for panic. I have noticed the same on my notebooks.

Satellite L300 - Wireless not working at all

Hi everyone,
Im new here and my name is Jodie. My husband and I bought new laptops a couple of weeks ago, the Satellite L300.
On my husbands one the wireless just stopped working, the switch is on but no light is on. I've tried FN and F8 is says the wireless is not working. I then checked in the device manager under netwrok adapters to see if it said the same as mine and the Wireless Adapter has vanished? It's the Atheros AR5007EG Wireless Netwrok Adapter.
Can anyone help? Can't bellieve this has happened and they are only 2 weeks old :(
Thanks Guys
Jodie

>Can't bellieve this has happened and they are only 2 weeks old
I understand what you mean but if you check this forum and all questions here your problem is not so complicated. You cannot even imagine which problems people have with notebooks. Sometimes I ask myself what people do with notebooks. :)
Back to your problem: Jodie if there is no way to get WLAN to work I recommend you to use most radical but most effective way to test WLAN functionality install OS again using HDD recovery image. After doing this you will have factory state and all hardware components should be installed properly.
Enable WLAN using WLAN switch, be sure WLAN is enabled with FN+F8 and scan the area.
It must work.

Satellite L300 does not have sound and modem is also not working

I have this Toshiba Satellite L300 (PSLB8A--1F004) an Australian model which was working perfectly well until I changed the harddrive after it developed bad sectors.
I have installed Win Vista Business.
I have all the drivers (TOSAPINS folder) that came with the original harddrive but when I did installed the drivers by following the correct order. i.e chipset, display, common modules, audio, modem and all other drivers.
There is still a little red x on the taskbar saying " No audio output device is installed" and also I noticed that the modem is not listed under device manager. I have also tried replacing a working modem card from a same model laptop but it is still not showing any signs of picking up the modem as well as sound driver.
I made attemp to download drivers from mytoshiba.com.au under the exact model and OS and installed but to no avail the problem is still there.
No sign of modem picked up and the little red x on taskbar still says " No audio output device is installed" and on device manager its not showing the audio or modem. there is also nothing in yellow exlamation marks and also I've tried to view hidden devices but still there is no sign.
Is there any thing else that I've missed out that I can try again?
WewakMaster

No I dont have the vista service pack and the internet speed at my end is too slow to download it.
So I have tried installing windows 7 but the problem still remains.
I have now removed win7 and have installed WIndows XP SP3 but there is still no sign of audio so Im stuck with win XP SP3 and trying to find solutions now.
I think the problem may have been caused when I upgrade the bios...and Im still looking for ways to downgrade the bios to its original bios to confirm this.

Satellite L300-1A3 - One key needs more pressure

Hello, I purchased 1 month ago a notebook *L300-1A3* but ,
I have a problem with its keyboard that *"T"* key needs more pressure rather other keys
+please help me how i can fix this key same as others?+

Hi
Maybe the key cap is not mounted correctly?
Usually you can remove the key caps from the keyboard
Do it carefully (dont use any force in order not to break something) and check if something prevent the button from correctly working.
If everything will look ok then I would recommend contacting an ASP technician for help maybe the whole keyboard must be replaced in order to solve this button issue

Satellite L300 will not power on - no light on after power plugged in

Hi,
I have a problem L300 will not start, after you plug in the power cable non of the lights comes on. tried with and without battery,
Swapped the cable inside laptop that goes from the plug to motherboard with other L series laptop and makes no difference, Motherboard doesn't look burned or anything like that.
Just didn't switched on one day. Any ideas??
Cheers

Hey,
Sounds like a serious hardware malfunction Probably the mainboard needs replacing. I mean it cant be the charger if you have already tried two different chargers with and without battery so it must be the mainboard or another hardware part.
If you get in contact with an authorized service provider the guys can make an exact diagnostic what part is defective and if you want to replace it or not. Mainboards are very expensive
So just get in contact with the local ASP and ask for help. :)

Memory Upgrade Satellite L300-1A3

I have an L300-1A3 with 4Gb Ram. Running Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit. I would like to know if I can upgrade memory to 2X4Gb modules ?

Hi
You can use max 4GB RAM. This means that you can use 2 x 2GB DDR2 RAM (800 MHz) memory modules.

Satellite L300-1A3 - Microphone is not working with Windows 7

Hello, I have a problem with integrated microphone on my laptop.
Mic comes with web cam chicony and under Windows 7 camera works just fine but microphone don't work at all.
Does anybody have solution to that problem?
Under vista microphone is working fine but I wanted to try Windows 7 on laptop and everything is working excellent except microphone.
Regards in advance.

Thanks for reply. Strange is that all hardware has been properly installed, i have installed drivers from: chipset including graphic and sound card, lan, wlan, camera, aver tv card in express card slot, and everything is working great, except integrated microphone. Camera and sound are installed with vista drivers and both are working well. Win 7 in general is much better for this laptop than vista, runs very fast and stable. I will rather buy external microphone, if this couldn't be sorted out, then installing vista again.

Toshiba Satellite L300 - Will not start

I have a Toshiba Satelitte L300 Laptop, the DC in power plug was loose so Pulled it apart and refixed the adapter, it ran OK for a while.
Prior to fixing the plug, there were many times when switched on the fan would start, power light would turn green and orange at the same time, run for about 3 seconds then shut down.
It would not start again until DC power plug removed and battery taken out, then all put back in again, the same would happen again, this could go on until finally giving up.
Other times happen once or twice then run without a problem.
If all is well only the green power light should illuminate.
Other times fan would start, power light would turn green run for 3 seconds, fan stop switched off, then immediately start again then ran with no problems.
Now when power switch pressed, orange and green led's come on, runs for 3 seconds then switches off, you can not try to start it again until DC power plug removed and battery taken out, when all put back in again the same thing keeps happening.
With battery in, then plug in DC, the DC and Battery lights come on at the same time.
With Battery removed, plug in DC, the DC light can take from 3 to 15 seconds to come on.
With Battery in and DC plugged in, try to start runs 3 seconds and stops , both DC and Battery lights remain on.
Do the same again and remove DC supply only, both DC and Battery lights remain on.
Do the same again and Battery only, both DC and Battery lights remain on.
Remove Battery and unplug DC, wait around 30 seconds, plug DC in again, it takes around 3 to 15 seconds for the DC light to come on.
When plugged into DC battery charges OK.
I have changed memory, hard drive, checked all connections to the motherboard used another Power Supply, but could not find a problem.
Would appreciate any advise.

Hi I know this is an old post but it is so similar to my problems (seems common) I wondered if anyone has any suggestions?
I have 2 L300's one had a broken screen for a long time so I used it through my tv and worked well till a few months back when it refused to switch on as above.
I was then given another L300 (bit better spec with a web cam) That died last week when the power jack snapped inside so I decided to make 1 good one out of 2 no go's. I thought the problem was the hard drive on the one with the broken screen, so swapped screens and hard drives but the same no boot problem is happening :?
I have taken out the battery and plugged in (with thedifferent hard drive from original ) and got 'status oxc 0000411 and hyberfil sys errors
I changed back to the original hdd and still no go. I then took out the ram? gave it a look over and put it back and it started fine in safe mode and normally. I then turned it off to let it charge fully (which it is) and now it won't boot up again, fan and cd is working and I still have my system restore disk
I have XP on one hdd and vista on the other.
Any idea?
Also can anyone tell me if the ram and hard drives and any other bits are interchangeable?
The one with the web cam (in bits now) is Model PSLBOE 07 JOOSEN :? if that helps
and the one I am trying to get running is

Why does Satellite L300-10Q not recognise a wireless lan

This new laptop computer is working ok on a wired LAN but does not recognise a Wireless Lan. Got message that no networks can be found. In the same room with another Toshiba Laptop the wireless LAN is found and has a good signal strength.
The switch for wireless LAN is turned on and "antenna" pictogram led is burning red.
Seems that it is not configurated for detection. Any Idea how to solve this?

Thanks for your reaction. But on the other working laptop several wireless access points can be "seen" in the area and on this laptop none. When wanting to contact a LAN it constantly refers to not a network cable connected and no wireless LAN access points can be seen unfortunately.
The system it works on for both laptops is Vista Home edition premium. Checked if the system was not set on "off line" working; what else can be checked to know that automatic detection is set and that the system is looking for the wireless points ?

Satellite L300 - Graphics not up to scratch?

I want to buy L4D 2, so I went on a website that tells me whether I can run a game or not: [Can I run this?|http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri/].
The result was that my processer was not good enough (Minimum 3 or 4 GHz, I have 1.8 GHz), which is a valid answer. But something about the "Video Card" result puzzles me.
It says my video card is not up to scratch, even though I have 1.3GB of Video RAM when you only need 128MB.
I also have Hardware T&L and my pixel and vertex shaders exceed what is required, so why is it a fail?

>It says my video card is not up to scratch, even though I have 1.3GB of Video RAM when you only need 128MB.
The graphic card can share the memory from the main memory. This is controlled by graphic card driver and this run automatically the part of main RAM would be assigned only if its needed I think this is the reason for this result

Re: Satellite L300 - Will not boot up

Hi, I'm really hoping someone can help me.
When I turn the laptop on it goes straight to a black screen that offers the opton to "Launch startup repair" or "Start windows normally". However when I chose start windows normally it looks like it is going to start and then goes straight back to the same screen. When I chose the startup repair it goes to a command box for about 30 seconds and then a box saying the installed programe cannot start, click ok to turn off the computer.
I have tried starting the system in safe mode and at the last known good configuration, but the same thing happens every time and it seems that it just doesn't want to boot at all. I am really worried because all my important files are on the recovery D drive but I cant get to them.
Any ideas?

I believe your problem would be that the boot files are corrupted on the beginning of the hard drive.
To solve this you will need to locate a boot CD of your operating system. this when run on your laptop will start it up to an area were you can repair windows. failing this you might like to obtain a copy of hiren boot disc 10.5. This will allow you to boot into a mini windows running in the ram of the laptop and enable you to retrieve your data to an external hard drive. failing all this you can purchase a upgrade windows7 disc from a computers store for about $130 which will reestablish the boot files and reload windows without loosing data.

Satellite L300-135 not booting into windows!

bought it about 2 years ago everything worked perfectly until today where it's even unable to boot into windows vista...I just turn it on when the windows loading bar is loading then it shows blue screen for 0.1 sec and it resets itself... even the safe mode wouldn't start and restore mode (last good known config) couldn't help it to start...i tried using an ubuntu linux live cd to save my datas but couldn't boot either, gave an error stating something as abnormal.
so where's the problem ?
Windows boot manager tried to find the problem and is telling me this:
status: 0xc00000e9
info: An unexpected I/O error has occured.

> so where's the problem ?
Who knows??? Do you think its so easy to say whats exactly wrong without running any tests???
Maybe its just a software issue but a hardware issue (RAM, motherboard, etc..) can be possible too.
As I understood your message, you want to access the data and to backup the necessary files
Well, the Toshiba recovery disk would format the whole HDD therefore you should backup the data before usage of recovery disk.
You could remove the HDD from the notebook and could connect it to another computer using an external USB HDD case.
After backup, you could use the recovery disk to reinstall the Windows.

Satellite L300 PSL8B8E - Wifi Realtek RTL8187B freezes

Hi,
I have problem with Wifi adapter in my new laptop Toshiba Satellite L300 PSL8B8E.
I purchased it 3 days ago. I have build in WiFi adapter Realtek RTL8187B Wireless 802.11b/g 54Mbps USB 2.0.
1. I tried to reinstall Windows Vista Home Premium from scratch.
2. I have downloaded drivers from Toshiba download site.
3. I disabled Power saving options.
4. Bios is the latest version
5. I changed Wifi channels
None of this helped me to solve problem with freezing Wifi. After restart it's working for a while and then it stop communicate and nothing helps me until I restart operating system.
Can anybody help me?
Zoltan

Hi all,
I have used Toshiba laptops before, but this Satellite L300 PSL8B8E (Vista 32, with Realtek RTL8187B wireless card) is the worst I have ever had.
Do not get me wrong, the machine works just fine, without wireless connection. But in this era, a laptop without wless is not worth much! Frankly, I have not had a chance to enjoy the wireless/mobility of a supposedly great toshiba, since I received it last March.
Wireless connection starts when the laptop starts, and after few minutes it simply dies. I have 3 other laptops and PCs home, all using the same wireless router (maxrange from Netgear) problem - free. Only this Satellite L300 is making my experience a nighmare.
I have tried resolving this, using every piece of advice I have been able to get, from updating Bios, firmware, drivers, OS, what have you.
My problem is I live in Palestine, a territory without Toshiba presence, and I have no way of returning this laptop to the vendor (was purchase from London).
Is there anyway to get in touch with TOshiba reps/tech geeks directly. They seem not to care to respond to similar questions, though clearly this seems to be a widespread problem (see the number of searrches and results using Google).
Please help.

My ipad mini has been stuck on 100% battery life all day and when I unplug it, it dies shortly after. I have to keep it plugged it to use it but it gets annoying.
Its been stuck on 100% and has not gone down yet !
I have tried turning it off, rebooting it, I checked my settings to see if I have done anything wrong, but nothing is working!
Any suggestions on what I should do to solve this problem?

Satellite L300-13S - Recovery USB instead of Recovery DVD Disks?

Hi,
Well, for the first time in 8 years I had to do a system recovery using the disks i created when i first bought my l300-13s using the Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator.
I had inadvertantly deleted the HDD Recovery partition when i set out to do a clone using a bigger HDD.
What I want to find out is instead of making recovery disks to DVD can i make a recovery USB flash drive?
Thanks
Peter.

Hi
As far as I can remember the old Satellite L300 did not provide the option to create the recovery USB flash memory stick. As far as I know you can create the Recovery CD or DVD for L300.
However, if USB flash memory would be supported, this option will be visible within the recovery media creator tool.
But you said you have deleted the HDD recovery partition. Well, in this case you will not be able to use this software. :(
