Satellite L300D PSLC0E - Cannot connect to TV

I have a problem with either my laptop or TV. I have a Toshiba Satellite L300D model number - pslc0e-017017en.
I'm trying to use a VGA wire to a Samsung TV but its not working.
I've try FN+F5 and nothing appears. Is this a common problem, do I need 2 install something?
Please help.

Hi
The question is what cable did you use and how did you connect it to the TV and if you have chosen the right channel on the TV!
As far as I know this notebook supports ONLY VGA (RGB) port. Using this port you can transmit only the analog video signal.
For example; you cannot connect VGA to DVI. This will not function!
If you want to connect the external monitor you will you have to use the VGA cable and should connect the both devices using a VGA cable.
By the way; its very important that you would use the Toshiba certified graphic driver!!!

Satellite L300D-11V cannot find a WLAN network

Ok,
I have 2 x Satellite L300D-11V series laptop and both are having the same problem: they are not detecting my wireless network in my house but I have proved the wireless hub by using a third PC (HP) and works perfectly,
Ive checked the wireless switch is on and done the FN+F8 key but it still cannot find a network. I've checked the devices in the Network adaptors and it finds Realtek RTL8102E Family PCI-E Fast Ethernet NIC but this is a LAN card isn't it?
Other devices show an Unknown Device but where would I find the Wireless device?

Hello
I don't know what kind of stories you heard in both shops but the fact is that Toshiba offers notebooks with WLAN card inside. All these notebooks are delivered with preinstalled operating system (recovery image) and have factory settings.
This recovery image contains operating system, all necessary drivers (including WLAN driver), Toshiba designed tools and utilities and some additional software. So if you buy new notebook with preinstalled OS the WLAN driver is there.
The statement from both shops is either misinformation or there is some misunderstanding.
Hi John
Im glad to hear your problem is solved now. just for info: WLAN card in your notebook is REALTEK 802.11(B/G) 13CH-RTL8187B.
Bye

Satellite Pro 6100 - Cannot connect to WLAN router

Hi there,
I have brought a 2nd hand Satellite Pro, Model version SP6100 (PS610E-029ZV-EN), P4 1.7Ghz, 512Mb, 30GB, with Windows 2000 Pro loaded.
I cannot get the wireless to connect to my router. The switch is in the correct position.
I want to change to XP using the key supplied with the laptop from new (dual OS) however I can't get it to reformat using an XP disc at start up or if I use the recovery cd (start with holding C down and release when it runs up) it begins but displays "invalid drive specification" three times and loads Win2000.
Can anyone advise how (or if!) I can reformat as I would like?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers.

Hi Jaba,
I'm quite happy to 'start again' and erase the existing partions via reformatting however I do not know how. I have tried starting with the XP disk in the dvd drive but it starts up in to 2000 without reading the XP disk.
I would prefer WXP than W2000 as it will be for home use.
If you or anyone else can advise on how I proceed from here I would be very grateful.
Cheers All.

Satellite A500-03P: Cannot connect to WLan using Win 7 + Event message

Hi all,
I very recently bought the Satellite A500 with the included offer of Windows7 when it was available end October 09.
So I got the DVD from Toshibe for the upgrade and followed the steps and upgraded from Visa home premium to Windows 7. I have two issues now.
1) I am getting a System Event Notification after start up, telling me about the system event log. The full message is below.
Failed to connect to a windows service
Windows could not connect to the System Event Notification Service service. This problem prevents limited users from logging on to the system. As an administrative user, you can review the System Event Log for details about why the service didn't respond
2) I was able to use this laptop for the internet PRIOR to the upgrade, both via a wireless USB drive as well at office via a modem ADSL.
Now I cannot access the internet after the Windows 7 upgarde!!
As an example the Optus dial up pop up box appears andwhen I click "connect" it does not connect.
Can anyone help please??
Thanks
C I

Hey buddy,
1)Have you checked the Service Configuration for this service? The start up type of System Event Notification Service must be always set to Automatic. This service is absolutely necessary for Windows and shouldnt be disabled or set to manual start type.
Check this!
2)To be honest I never heard about internet PRIOR but normally it should also be possible to access the Internet with Windows 7.
Make sure that the WLAN and/or LAN card is installed properly and check the TCP/IP settings. If you are missing some driver you can get it on the Toshiba page.

Satellite A500-15M: Cannot connect to TV using HDMI

Hi,
I have a Satellite A500-15M. I recently tried to connect to my TV so I could watch some online shows on my Hannspree Xv HD ready TV.
The HDMI out doesn't register at all on the TV - the TV displays a message 'not supported' and remains blank (as if there is no signal) - On the PC display settings it doesn't recognise the TV... in fact it [Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel] says that monitor/TV settings are not supported.
But I can connect via the VGA output - although I have to drop the display settings down to 1024x768 for it to show on the telly. Additionally the display on the TV then is mostly pink and red, even though my pc display pic is mostly blue. - the Toshiba start up screen shows on the TV without any issues, and a couple of times the log in screen has displayed fine too, but then sometimes it doesn't...
I know it is not the VGA cable as I can connect to the TV with it on my wife's advent netbook without any issues.
Are there any drivers I need to update/ download? Or settings I need to change?
How can I get my display onto my TV?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi
First of all you should connect both devices (notebook and TV via HDMI) when both devices are powered off. After that power up the TV and the notebook.
You should choose the HDMI channel on TV and then should use the key combination FN + F5 in order to switch the video output to the TV.
If it does not help, try to update the graphic card driver.
It seems your notebook supports the Intel graphic chip. Therefore you could check the Intel page for new drivers.

Satellite internet users cannot connect to Flash based online multiplayer games

Hello,
I have found that Satellite internet users are unable to
connect to the game Club Penguin because of the recent security
fixes that have been added to the flash player over the last 6
months or so. Club Penguin used to require at least Flash Player 7
to run, at this time satellite users could connect.
They recently upgraded their system to require Flash player 9
or higher, since this update no satellite users can connect if they
have the newest versions of Flash. If they revert back to the Flash
Player 9r47 they can then connect to the game. Of coarse this opens
the computer up to the exploits that have been fixed.
Anyone have any idea of how to notify Adobe of this issue? Or
possibly another way to make it work with the newest versions of
Flash Player?

Does this problem with your Internet satellite happen only with this game? You might want to contact your Internet provider as I'm sure they will be able to work with Adobe in fixing the problem.

Satellite L300D - No network connection

Hi,
I have a Toshiba Sattelite L300D 13S, and i was having some issues booting so have just formatted and installed windows vista on it.
I am having problems getting the network adaptor to work, its a Realtek rtl8101 Family PCI-E Fast Ethernet NIC(NDIS 6.0). Obviously when i first installed the OS there were no drivers so i had the yellow ! next to it in device manager.
I downloaded the rtl8101 drivers which made the yellow ! dissapear so i thought great it should work, but all i get is 'This computer does not have a wireless network adaptor installed and configured'.
It doesnt work with a wired connection or wireless.
I would really appreciate any help, its driving me nuts!
cheers

Hi,
Did you download the Realtek Lan driver for your laptop from the [Toshiba drivers site|http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp]?
Did you download the wireless lan driver or only the lan driver?

Satellite L300D PSLC0E: IE & Firefox hangs & short battery time

Folks, I recently bought 2 new L300D laptops (Vista Premium, 2MB RAM) for my children. Im reasonably technical but would appreciate some advise on following issues:
1. Both explorer and firefox browsers regularly 'hang' when using gmail. When I try to close the browser the 'x' to close in the top right starts shimmering and wont stop. Browser hangs. This can sometimes happen when opening new emails. Not sure this has happened with basic browsing. Is this VISTA, BIOS, browser, google?!
Big issue as they cant check their email regularly. Only way to exit is through task manager.
2. Battery life now seems to be 1 hour. I was careful to charge up and drain down when I bought but battery life is v poor.
3. Toshiba TEMPRO advises on various updates. I checked the BIOS and after issues with extracting I seem to be upto date. Which ones do you suggest I pay attention to as most seem cosmetic?
Many thanks in advance.
Stewart

Possibly this has something to do with the security settings of your internet browsers.
Maybe you should check it again.., furthermore I recommend updating the Win Vista, IE and firefox to the latest state?
> 2. Battery life now seems to be 1 hour. I was careful to charge up and drain down when I bought but battery life is v poor.
Battery life time depends on the notebook usage... this means that if you are using some applications which need more hardware resources then the battery would discharge faster.
You could extend the battery working time changing some settings in the Vista power settings. For example reduce the screen brightness, set the CPU frequency to a lower level, etc..
> 3. Toshiba TEMPRO advises on various updates. I checked the BIOS and after issues with extracting I seem to be up to date. Which ones do you suggest I pay attention to as most seem cosmetic?
I agree with Raver, if you have no big issues with the notebook then a BIOS updates is not really necessary but if you want you can update it.

Satellite Pro M70: Cannot connect to WLan with ConfigFree

Hi in Forum.
I'm having trouble with a Satelite Pro M70, concerning gaining control of wireless conections.
When scanning with "The Radar" i ConfigFree for available wireless accesspoints, I get several points available, but is not able to connect to a single one of them. I can read their status and see their WEP encryption marker.
When I try to connect to any one of them, I get a pop up dialog box, which says (translated from danish) "Another suppliers software is in control of the wireless adapter". When trying to set up a connection through the classic windows way, windows states that "windows is not able to configure this wireless connection - if you have another program to administrate wireless connections you must use this". I suppose it refers to ConfigFree...?
Is the unnamed "other supplier" Windows related or maybe McAfee related (Security Suite 2007)?
If you're familiar with this problem or something like it I would be please to know.
By the way - where do I enter WEP encryption keys for my friends WLAN routers in ConfigFree?

> When trying to set up a connection through the classic windows way, windows states that "windows is not able to configure this wireless connection - if you have another program to administrate wireless connections you must use this". I suppose it refers to ConfigFree...?
It must be not a ConfigFree. Depending on you WLan card an Intel ProSet utility or a Atheros Client utility could controls the Wlan configuration!
Please check if one of the both tools controls the wlan and disable the function!
> where do I enter WEP encryption keys for my friends WLAN routers in ConfigFree
You should have three different tabs in the Configfree utility.
The second one Device settigns provides device list and there you should find Wireless network connection.
Choose it and use the button Network connections.
There you should find some encryption settings!
Please check also the Profile settings tab and the option called Security settings

No XP drivers for Satellite L300D PSLC0E

Hi
There is not XP drivers for my notebook model in Toshiba Web. Why?
I can only find drivers for Vista or Independent OS (?)
Thanks

Hi again
I need XP drivers for:
- Audio device on high Definition Audio Bus
- Controladora de Bus SM
- Controladora de Video
- Conroladora Ethernet
- Modem device on High Definition Audio Bus
- RTL8187B_WLAN_Adapter
I have been looking for these drivers for a whole week and is imposible to find them.
The only driver i got was the CATALYST ATI for the Video controller.
I have tried diferents drivers from Realtek Web with no results.
I dont understand why i can find in Toshiba Web the XP drivers for all the notebooks models but not for my model.
Is easier for Toshiba to get them and i think toshiba should put them in the support web.
Please, support me. I bought a toshiba because the support of a big company. I could buy a cheaper computer but i knew that the support is usually bad, but now i am not sure about that.
Thanks

Cannot connect to wireless on Satellite L300D-13S

Bought this new laptop Satellite L300D-13S
The wireless doesn't seem to work, the switch and light are on and the divice manger shows theres nothing wrong with the driver my hub seems to be working fine with my older laptop etc so i think my hubs ok. Is this a commen problem?
Its a BT home Hub if that helps and if i use the cable from the hub to the laptop it works fine and conects up with out a problem, please help

Hello,
To connect your notebook to the router wirelessly should not be big problem. The principle on all Toshiba notebooks is the same.
At first be sure the WLAN card is installed properly. The status can be checked in device manager.
Be sure the WLAN card is also enabled properly Move the WLAN switch to ON position (WLAN LED must be ON). After doing this use FN+F8 key combination and be sure option ON is chosen.
So now the WLAN card should be enabled properly.
Click on START > Connect To and Connect to a network window will be shown. On the right side click on refresh button and hopefully available WLANs will be listed. If your favourite WLAN is listed there click on it and then on Connect button. On the next step enter WLAN key (if the network is encrypted) and you should have connect to the router.
If the WLAN is not visible then it can be because of false settings on the router. If your router is not so old check WLAN settings there and enable automatic mode (data transfer speed). Maybe your old notebook has WLAN card A/B and new one runs on G (54 MBit/s transfer speed). Be sure this mode is enabled too.

Satellite L300D cannot burn DVDs

I have Satellite L300D and Ii have had about a year but I never tried burning DVDs. Now I can burn and read CDs perfectly and read DVDs but when it comes to burning DVDs it have problems as Toshibas programme that came with laptop does not work to burn DVDs and other various programs like Nero and imgburn do not work. I am always getting write error and other things. I was told it was the disks so I went and spent money for verbatim DVDs instead of cheap ones and still it is making coasters out of every disk I try to burn my DVD burner is
HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T50N ata device
Can anyone help me please have tried everything restoring my factory settings to when I first bought the laptop as new and still no joy desperately need help.
Any answers lol ?

Lot of people have problem installing WXP on new notebook because of missing SATA driver. Without this driver HDD will not be recognized properly and WXP installation cannot start because of missing HDD.
To avoid this SATA settings in BIOS can be changed from AHCI to compatibility. This is OK but HDD will not run on default speed and with full performance. So it is better to install WXP with SATA driver and AHCI settings.
Now when the WXP is installed you cannot change this BIOS settings. it will probably end with blue screen at start up. So if you want to have well working WXP on your notebook you must install WXP again (AHCI mode in BIOS).
In this forum you can find hundreds of threads with good explanation how to do this.
If this will help with DVD I don't know but I don't see any reason why you should not be able to use optical disc drive for burning DVDs.
I have Satellite A300 with WXP Sp3 and NERO. It burns all empty medias.

Satellite Pro L300-1B9 cannot connect to my Wireless router

Hi!
I have activated the wireless nw on SAT L300 PRO 1B9 - but with many fight...
First I needed to find the switch to enable (I never though that it have... :-) ).
Then I needed to deinstall Atheros in Windows, and set the flags on (enable) in the Windows driver.
But in both Linux and Windows I couldn't connect to my Wireless router.
My luck was that some of my neightbours have security-disabled, open wireless network, what I could map to test.
The test was succecfully with that network, but my wireless router was unreachable.
From other machine I could reach it.
The result was:
If I set the router to broadcast the SSID, both OSs (Ubuntu + Windows) can use wireless network.
But if I disable the broadcasting (to protect my router), the network driver cannot use my router, it does not matter I pre-set the SSID...
A router is WRT54G, and it is working with other computers if I hide the SSID, but with SAT L300 Pro cannot connect (with this option).
Do anybody knows why? What I need to do to I could hide the SSID from the bad guys?
Thanks for any help!
Regards:
dd

I dont know which Windows OS do you use but if you use original Vista, I think, right WLAN driver is part of the package. So WLAN card must be installed properly.
It is not easy to say what is wrong there but if the notebook can see and detect your WLAN network on notebooks side everything must be OK. Try to restart your router and check all settings.
In my opinion there is some problem with WLAN settings.
