Satellite L350 can't stand by/hybernate

Hi
I have the Toshiba Satellite L350 and I have installed WXP instead of Vista and the only thing that I change to BIOS is to change ACHI to multi.. (I did that because I couldnt install WXP with another way...then after 1 month my laptop when I close the lid ,is starting the standby mode for only 5-10 secs and then opens again without touching anything...and hibernate has the same behaviour.
Do you have any idea how can I solve this matter?

Hi buddy,
To be honest I dont understand your question.
Did you shut down the notebook when it goes in stand by mode?
Or does your notebook wake up from standby, hibernation, etc.?
In this case you have to disable Wake up on LAN, Keyboard in BIOS.
And what happens with preinstalled Windows?

  • Satellite L350 - Can't install Vista and how can I backup my data?

    Hi to all
    I have a Satellite L350 and recently I've installed Vista Home Premium in a different language (the OEM Vista was in English) hoping I could activate it with the OEM key, but I didn't succeed.
    When I wanted to re-install the OEM Vista from WinRE I realized I can't access it and then I had a "brilliant" idea that if format the C partition with the Acronis Disc Director it would boot from WinRE. It didn't.
    Fortunately Ive burned the recovery discs before. The only problem is that the recovery disc formats the entire HDD and I have data on the second partition I've would like to retrieve.
    I tried to install again the retail Vista to backup the data from the second partition (yes, I'm an idiot, I didn't do it before) but it stops after the first reboot. I get a black screen with a low dash blinking.
    I really need that data, please help!

    Hi!
    I can tell you why you cant install a retail version of Vista by using the product key. This is pretty easy because the key on the bottom side on the notebook belongs to the preinstalled OEM version and cant be used by a retail version.
    However, I think the best way to backup your data would be that you put the HDD in an external HDD case and then you can backup your data on another PC or notebook.
    Such external HDD cases are not expensive but very useful.

  • Satellite L350 - Can't switch off wireless LAN

    The wireless switch and the Fn-F8 key combo don't appear to be switching off the wireless adapter (REALTEK RTL8187B) in my Satellite L350 (Win 7 Home Premium x32).
    ConfigFree shows the correct switch status i.e. OFF when it's off and ON when it's on. And the Fn+F8 key toggles between On and Off and recognises when the switch is off or on. But no matter whether they are on or off, the wireless connection icon in the notification area always show that "connections are available" and I can always establish a wireless connection. After toggling the Fn+F8 key a few times the established connection is dropped by conections are still shown as available.
    I've updated the BIOS and REALTEK device driver to the latest versions, but the wireless adapter still appears to be always on/enabled unless I disable it via the control panel or the ConfigFree icon that's in the notification area.
    Any suggestions about what the problem might be and is there a fix?
    Also, what is supposed to happen and what notifications are you supposed to get when you switch the wirelss off - either via the switch or Fn+F8? I only recently bought the L350 to replace my ageing Toshiba Satellite A30 so am new to wireless networking and Windows 7.
    TIA

    I have a Satellite L350 purchased pre loaded with Win7 Home Premium (32) and RealTek RTL8187B adapter which also has the fault described above.
    Namely: -
    1) The front panel RF/Wireless switch lights the LED in the "On" position and turns it off in the "Off" position. The wireless connection is not affected, it stays ON.
    2) The use of the FN+F8 keys gives an error message to turn the switch "On" if it is set to "Off", then once it is "On" correctly displays the setting. With the switch set to "On" the keys will turn off the LED on the front panel. The actual connection is unaffected by these actions and stays connected at all times unless disconnected via the notification area icon.
    I initially thought this was a hardware fault and returned it to the retailers as the switch was quite sloppy. It has been returned and shows the same problem as before even though the switch has been replaced.
    Therefore, having read the contents of this board it would seem there is a software issue here.
    How do we get this resolved or what update am I missing?
    The PC was bought at the end of Dec.

  • Re: Satellite L350 - Can I always activate the numlock?

    Each time when I started my laptop L350 I have to set the numlock button to use my keypad. Is it not possibele that the laptop remember the setting numlock on each time I started it up?
    I hope that the forum users can help me,
    Brian

    Hello
    Normally this option is available in BIOS but I have checked it and it seems that function is not available.
    Normally its not a problem because you can enable the numlock with one simple key! ;)

  • Satellite L350 - Can't connect via WLan

    Hi
    New to this thread lark
    Just bought a L350
    I've managed to connect to the interent using a cable, but am unable to connect via wifi.
    Wifi is switched on. It finds my BT Home Hub, but when i connect it just says it is unable to.
    Help, please

    Did you check the Wifi device in Device Manager? Is the driver installed properly?
    Try disabling your Firewall, that could be blocking the Wifi connection.
    Also try pressing Fn+F9 to toggle the Wireless devices

  • Satellite L350-12C - hard drive failure, need recovery

    Please help. I have Toshiba Satellite L350-12c and its a German model. My hard drive failed.
    The local Toshiba repair centre said they can replace the hard drive but without the disc they cant restore it to working order.
    The worst part is its still under warranty but Toshiba is refusing to help me. The only place I can order discs is from Europe who wont accept an American credit card and mailing address which kills me because I have another laptop from Germany and they sent me discs with no issue.
    The local shop even contacted the local rep and she was no help. Please help frustrated Toshiba customer.

    Sorry i have a german l350-12c that was purchased in the UK. it has a 2 year international warrnty and i live in the united states. toshiba of usa insist they will do nothing to help. the local toshiba dealer is been very helpful they spoke to a toshiba of america rep and still was told their was nothing they can do. this model was not built for the us market. the local shop is willing to fix it if i get the original restore disc. without that their not willing because they say they dont have access to the drivers and the special fixes that would be ont the disc.which is the stuff that makes all the little functions work, Plus without the disc theirs no way to set up the recovery partation,which is damaged due to the harddrive failure. theirs ways it could be peaced together but they wont do the warrnty work without being able to fix it. if they just swapped the harddrive i guess i could manage but that realy blows seeing i have warrnty which is suppose to be honored even in the us. when i call toshiba of uk they say they cant send the disc to the us. but yet through my work we get things from simens in germay on a regular basis.so im completely at a lose thanks for any help.

  • Satellite L350 - Doesn't ready CD's but DVD's

    Hi
    I've just sign in
    I've got a problem with my Satellite L350. It does not read any CD`s but DVD`s work fine.
    Anybody have any ideas?
    Please

    Forget these filters.
    Remove optical disc drive from device manager and restart your notebook.
    The drive will be recognized and installed again.
    Test the functionality with original medias. Be sure you don't use some not readable copy protected music CDs. If the situation is the same contact nearest authorized service provider and ask for help.
    Of course as last step you can test functionality with factory settings but at first you must reinstall OS.

  • Black screen after login on Satellite L350-20Q (normal mode)

    My Satellite L350-20Q run Vista basic.
    After login that is normal I go to the turning arrow then to a permanent black screen when I start in normal mode.
    In safe mode I have a normal behaviour and I can work. Spybot report no malware present. But my Avast antivirus does not seems to work in safe mode.
    Do you have any idea of this problem ?
    A fellow has advised me to update my graphic drivers which is presently Intel Corporation 12/06/2008 version 7.15.10.I502 for Mobile Intel 4 series express chipset family. What is the URL and the filename to download the most recent driver ?
    Message was edited by: nigelle normal mode added in title.

    1) I have already done a roll back but without success
    2) total reinitialisation and updates is a long and tedious process I wish to avoid if possible.
    Downloading and installing a new driver is fast so I prefer to try this before even if the probability of improvement is low. Where can I find the driver for graphic ?
    3) I bought this lap top in June and Win7 was released in September or October.
    All manufacturers had promised a free update to Win7.
    But after the release of Win7 my laptop was not in the eligible list may be only because it ran on Vista basic and they were not Win7 basic and Toshiba did not want to pay for the upgrade...
    Not very honest !
    I dared not to buy a Win7 license because I think that Win on a laptop is a slightly modified version.

  • How to get low battery warning on Satellite L350-235?

    Hi
    I have a Toshiba Satellite L350-235
    I have a problem trying to get a warning sound when my battery is low.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks
    jnf555

    You can do this in personalize option of Win 7
    Make a right click on desktop and select Personalize
    Then click on Sounds at the bottom of the window.
    Next you have to select a sound event (battery low) from the list and then hit browse button. Select a .wav sound and click Open and then click Apply.

  • After BIOS update Satellite L350-172 doesn't start anymore

    Satellite L350-172 Bios-Update from bios-20090203164614 to bios-201002250
    I just updatet the BIOS of my notebook from 1.60 to 2,20. Now the Notebook doesn't start any longer.
    "It was stopped for reason not to damage the Computer" - blue schreen.
    How can I downgrade the bios again? Or - what have I to change in the bios-settings?

    Hi schuwe,
    Im a little bit confused about your posting. How do you tell your BIOS not to restart?
    Anyway, after BIOS update you should load the default settings in BIOS.
    Did you choose the right BIOS especially for your model?

  • Satellite L350 and OpenGL 1.4

    I have seen similar posts in the past, but none of them could help me with my issue.
    Background, I have a Satellite L350 with Windows Vista and try to run a game that needs OpenGL 1.4. I already installed the current display drivers from this site but still could not get it to run. The next step was downloading the Intel display drivers, which are more recent, but I am having trouble installing those as apparently the manufacturer has not verified those.
    Is there something I am missing? Looking at the hardware requirements of that game
    (OS: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 / Processor: Dual Core 1.6 GHz or better / Memory: 1GB (XP), 2GB (Vista), 2GB (Windows 7) / Hard Disk Space: 140 MB Free Space / Video Card: OpenGL 1.4 or higher)
    The L350 should be able to handle that, right? Is there a way to test which version of OpenGL can run?
    Greets
    Stefan

    Aha.....almost...I am almost there. I have the drivers at hand and unzipped, yet I can not get device manager to use the newer drivers. Because anytime I point Vista to the new drivers it tells me that the most current drivers are already installed, even though those are 7.xxxx instead of the newer 15.xxxx. Do I have to uninstall the old drivers first (uninstalling those sounds kind of scary though)? I seem to miss the option to actually select this driver as windows just searches through the folder and doesn't do anything.
    Maybe I have missed how to get to the advanced installation procedure. How do I actually get there?
    (Thanks for the help btw)

  • Satellite L350: What is better choice: Recovery disc or F8 repair?

    Hi,
    I have a fairly new Satellite L350 (5 months). I recently discovered a trojan attached to program files for AVG software. I got rid of the trojan, did a restore to date before loading AVG in hopes that my system would go back to normal. It still continues to be slow, explorer keeps locking up and all sorts of quirky things keep happening! Yikes.
    I have the Recovery and Application CD that came with my laptop. Should I use the Recovery CD or should I try to just repair by using the F8 option? And if I use the Recovery CD what files will I lose, normally? I tried to search for a list of apps that are on that disc but found no info??
    I have spent most of the day saving all my files on disc. I will lose some paid downloaded programs which I am willing to sacrifice if I can get my computer to love me again!!
    Any advice would be helpful.
    Thanks

    >Should I use the Recovery CD or should I try to just repair by using the F8 option? And if I use the Recovery CD what files will I lose, normally?
    I would recommend using the Recovery disk because the Recovery disk would format the whole HDD and will set the notebook to the factory configuration.
    If you have some viruses on the HDD then the HDD format might be the best option in order to remove all the Trojans and viruses.

  • Cannot find my Satellite L350-10H - external video full HD output

    Hello Everybody.
    I have a problem with my satellite L350-10H when I try to attach a second external monitor in full HD.
    In fact Im only able to duplicate my Notebook Display with the same resolution (1440 x 900).
    The System don't allow me to set a Full HD Resolution for my Samsung External Monitor.
    I don't think can be a limitation of the Chipset because I can do that with all my oldest notebook I have at Home.
    Now the strange thing is that when I try to search for a driver in the Toshiba website, my model just don't exist !!!
    I put the serial number and the website don't recognize the model, then in the list this model don't exist.
    It is: *TOSHIBA SATELLITE L350-10H* - OS WINDOWS VISTA HOME PREMIUM
    Someone have also this model? How I can attach a full hd monitor?

    Hi
    First of all, if you would take a look on the Toshiab European driver page, then you will notice that the driver search form does not contain any sub model numbers but series numbers this means you have to check the model number and then could find the right drivers.
    As far as I know the notebook Sat L350-10H belongs to PSLD0E series.
    You can find the drivers for this notebook if you would choose L350 PSLD0E.
    Easy. Isnt it?
    Now back to your video output;
    As far as I know there is a Mobile Intel GL960 Express Chipset.
    Ive got the same chipset and I can use the external monitor perfectly.
    But I have installed the Intel graphic card driver in fact the preinstalled driver on my notebook didnt contain some resolutions
    Therefore I recommend checking the Intel page and to download and install the driver for Mobile Intel GL960 chipset.
    After new reboot you should check if you could choose the resolution.

  • Satellite L350 - Access code for the router

    Dear Sirs
    I have a Toshiba Satellite L350 running Windows 7 Ultimate. For the first 5 months it remembered the wireless access code for the router. I then installed a BT Home Hub which I subsequently removed and from then on the Windows 7 machine will no longer remember the password.
    I have spent hours on the phone with Microsoft to no avail. Can anyone help?

    The problem is very simple but the solution is not.
    As I said earlier the computer remebered the wirless access code for around 5 months.
    I then installed a BT home hub (free from BT) and it worked fine and then I uninstalled it and reverted back to my D-Link router.
    From this point on every time I turn on the computer I have to enter the wireless access code to connect to the internet and until I turn off the computer all works fine.
    Microsoft have not been able to locate the problem and neither have BT hence this last attempt to try and find the solution.
    Thanks for your reply and I look forward to some help.

  • Re: Satellite L350-170 - WiFi stops and starts

    Hello,
    I have the Toshiba Satellite L350-170 and it's great. I am running Vista 32-bit and I have had it from Christmas '08.
    For a while now, the WiFi will just stop (if I use webcam on msn or something) as if it's just overloaded, then I have to wait a few mins before it comes back on again!
    Is there a driver to keep the internet connected? On my taskbar, it says I'm always connected, and when I check on ConfigFree (when i can't use internet, but it's saying I *am* connected.
    Can this be solved?
    Hope you can help!
    Regards,
    James K

    Hi James,
    Maybe this problem is caused by the router. You should check the logfile of it. Is the router always connected interruptions?
    In this case a firmware update would be advisable and let the ISP check your Internet connection.
    Furthermore you can try updating the WLAN driver. The latest version can be downloaded on the Toshiba website.
