Satellite L350D - hotkeys dont work

I have a problem with program Toshiba Utiliities V1.00.06 (same problem with with v1.00.01). When trying to install there's a communicate coming up. It says: "TOSHIBA Common Module not found! This setup will terminate."
Its some situation with wireless,I have all installed,I see networks and I cant loggin bcs dont works Fn+F8 :(.
What is that and why does it occur? Problem this occurs on Windows XP Service Pack 3 it's just after beeing installed.Orriginaly there was Windows Vista SP 1.
Notebook is Satellite L350D PSLE0E-00600KEN.

Hello Domel
As I can see on Toshiba download page your notebook model is not supported for WXP and Toshiba doesnt offer any driver, tool or utility. So I am asking myself what are you doing exactly and which Toshiba Utilities you try to install.
Can you please tell us where you found WXP Toshiba Utilities for Satellite L350D PSLE0E?
BTW: I just hope you have created Vista recovery DVD before you started installing WXP.

Satellite L350D - WLAN not working after recovery disk

Hello there
I just got a L350D. I ran the Recovery Disk tool, without any other programm running. It was on a good way of finishing the second disk and than: BAM! blue screen. Since the start up, my LAN and WLAN is not working.
It always says "WLAN 2.0 bg Adapter" to which no driver is found. The correct driver is a Realtek for both WLAN and LAN.
Do you think the crash busted the WLAN and LAN module?
Things i tried:
System reset
Driver reinstall
but nothing worked.
Has anyone any hints?
Thanks a lot!

Hi!
I dont know what the reason is for this BSOD during the installation but can you post the BSOD code? So you can search on the Microsoft Knowledge Base for this code.
Furthermore I would try to update the BIOS of your notebook that you can find on the Toshiba website:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com => Support & Downloads => Download Drivers
After you have updated the BIOS try to update the driver of WLAN and LAN card or try to reinstall Windows again using the Toshiba recovery disk.
Bye

Satellite L350D Works for a few minutes and then completely stop

Hi all!
I am having a weird problem with my laptop Satellite L350D-216
I've used it for a long time in a row and starts to show some strange vertical lines at the screen and kind of loose focus and then it went completely black
Since then if I switch off and leave for a few hours it switches on normally and work for 5/10 minutes and goes black again.
It happens after I was working on it for about 20 hours straight or so (might be related)
What i did tried:
-Switch on only with the battery
-Switch on only with the AC
-Take all off and hold off key for 1 min and then try again both above
When it does switch on everything seems to be working 100% without problem but doesnt last more then 10 minutes as I said
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Hi Horwath and Pau Pau,
First of all thanks for trying to help.
This morning I've open the laptop and clean it the cooler completely (was full of dust) and it is now working full speed.
What I've noticed however is that the problem seems to be worsening. Today, even before the cleaning, when I switch on the computer after a whole night of i got the blank screen straight away. So I couldn't test it at BIOS as you guys ask me too, however yesterday, even before posting here, I've tried something similar and the black screen came after a few minutes as if i was using windows.
You think the GPU is faulty?
And, if the answer is yes, is it worthy/possible to replace? How much it would cost?
Any further test I could do to make sure the problem is at the GPU?
Thanks again
Amantino

BT dongle dont work on Satellite A210-186

I got a Satellite A210-186 with Vista Premium. If I connect a BLUETOOTH DONGLE it installs normal its seen on hardware install. But it dont work no flashing light. If I put the dongle on my other normal pc it installs and the light goes flashing. It works correctly.
Why is it not working on my Toshiba?
Please help.

Have you got any driver with this BT dongle? Have you installed something? Who is the manufacturer of this BT device?
Sorry but it is really not easy to give you any precise answer. Have you got any users manuals with this BT dongle?

Satellite A100-998: Brightness & DVD Hotkeys never worked from new

My 2-year-old Satellite's screen brightness could easily be adjusted by the Fn + F6/F7 keys, but not this new one. Also, the keyboard Play/FF/Rewind keys for the DVD player don't function.
The Toshiba Hotkey Utility shows as a 1.37 MB file on my add/remove programs list. Could a solution be to remove and re-install this program? If so, would my recovery disks, as supplied by Toshiba, allow me to re-install the Hotkey utility?
Many thanks for all feedback.

Hello
Sorry but I can not believe that Brightness & DVD Hotkeys never worked from new. With factory settings all should work well.
Before we start any discussion can you please check your notebook model? A100 is pretty new one and can not be 2 years old.

Re: Satellite L350D-10X work temperature

Hello!
I have a Toshiba Satellite L350D-10X model PSLE8E with MS Windows 7 Ultimate RC1.
Everest software show 87C (185F) of both processors core. How I know - it's too much. Time after time my laptop is turning off.
What can I do for avoid this trouble?

How warm is the air coming out of the vent?
If its cold after 30 minutes, then the heatsink may be loose or faulty, or the thermal grease is insufficient or dried up.
ps. the laptop has a safely mechanism where it shuts the laptop off if it overheats.
If its not shutting off, then maybe that temperature is normal for that AMD CPU, or the Temperature software is not reading the degrees properly.
Run HWMonitor and tell us the temperature in there: http://www.cpuid.com/hwmonitor.php

Satellite L350D-213 - Updating drivers on Windows 7

Bought Satellite L350D-213 mid Nov. Pre-loaded with Winodws 7. System auto detect on Tosh site shows that whole batch of new Windows7 drivers issued on 3/12/09. Was wondering whether I need to install all these drivers.
Up to now only prob has been webcam "locked by another application" which hours of web searching showed to be very common prob. Downloaded latest webcam driver issued on 3rd Dec. Cam ok at moment but only time will tell. Is it advisable to go through the whole list of applicable drivers or leave things as they are. Don't want to cause uneccessary probs.
Any advice welcome.

Hello
Its nice to read that your webcam works properly now and this would be also my suggestion to update the driver regarding this issue.
However, if your computer runs properly now I dont see any reason to update any drivers. Why you should do this?
I think drivers are only released to solve problems on other notebooks or compatibility issues so if you dont have problems you must update nothing. I can recommend never change a running system! ;)
So have fun with your notebook dont bother about updating drivers.

Cannot reload WLan Atheros AR5007EG on Satellite L350D

I am using a Satellite L350D model PSLE8E-038002BT.
As I had a network problem (I regularly lose contact with the DNS server), I suspected the driver atheros-wlan-win7-9204190 which I had recently installed to be the cause. I wanted to go back to the version atheros-wlan-win7-8002580 which had ran successfully on my PC for quite a while.
So I went to Device management, chose for Network adapters where I selected the Ahteros wireless. Selecting properties and device drivers I tried to reload the old version. As the old driver was not saved at this location I used the TC00190600I.exe file from the zip file received using Tempro. Unfortunately, the Atheros loader refused to overwrite a new version by an old one. As a result I decided to remove the driver, which also removed the Atheros device from the system.
I recovered the device by starting the TC00190600I.exe again. But the connection to the router does not come up. The icon at the bottom of the screen indicating connectivity says : Not connected, there are no connections available. The windows network control mentions Possibly there is a problem with the device driver for your wireless network adapter connection.
Note that some texts or names mentioned above cannot be accurate. I translated them as I use a Dutch windows version.
Thanks for any help or advice.

I dont know what are you doing exactly and how you have installed all these updates.
If you are 100% sure that this problem has nothing to do with your router install original recovery image and test functionality. If everything works properly with factory settings than you will know for sure that WLAN card is working properly and it is not hardware related issue.
BTW: few days ago I had strange problem on my old A300 (Win7 32bit). Suddenly notebook could not establish connection to my WLAN router. Router was visible, password correct but nothing. Ive tried everything but nothing helps.
At least i have restarted router and suddenly everything was OK. Why?

Qosmio x300 and Win7 - FN buttons dont work

I reinstalled Windows 7 and now the FN buttons dont work. I have installed the newest version of VAP, the flash card utility is running. So I have no idea.
Did I forget to install something?
Or is there a tool who installs all drivers for my Qosmio x300 in one piece?

Hi
Normally its enough if you install Value Added Package and Flash Cards Support Utility to use the FN keys. But make sure that both tools are released for Windows 7 and not for old Vista.
As far as I know if you search for Qosmio X300 on the Toshiba page you will only find VAP for Windows 7. The Flash Cards Support Utility is an older version. I would recommend install a newer version, for example search for Satellite L550. There you can find Flash Cards Support Utility for Windows 7, its version 1.63.0.4

Re: Trying to install Win7 on Satellite L350D

Hi guys
I have a Toshiba Satellite L350D and I am trying to install the Windows7 again cause the screen went black so I decided to format and install everything again but when its finishing the installation the laptop reboots but the screen continues black :(
Any clews?
Can I do a BIOS update without having Windows working and should this sort it out my problem?
Best regards
Luis

If you have recovery disc you can install original image later. Now is important to have well working OS. For this purposes you can use Microsoft installation disc and later install all necessary drivers, tools and utilities from Toshiba support page. I have done this several times on different Toshiba notebooks and every time everything went well.
Back to your original question: it is not easy to say why the screen stays black. You know that after OS installation notebook may restart several times to finish OS installation and prepare desktop for the first use.
Maybe is some external device connected to your notebook? Please disconnect all connected stuff and try installation again.
Before you start it set BIOS to default settings. It must work somehow.
Good luck.

I need some XP drivers for Satellite L350D-110 PSLE8E

Hello there.
I have now my brandnew Toshiba notebook. It comes only with VISTA, a very nice looking system.
But I want to use my notebook in our office too and then I need to install XP Professional.
XP is already installed, but i need some drivers to complete the system installation.
Here is screenshot from my hardware manager (hope it will work in this forum):
http://img443.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screengmhv9.jpg
Can anybody help me?
Or is there a chance to get a downgrade option from Toshiba?? Without a downgrade I cannot use my brandnew notebook.....

For the Satellite L350D and Windows XP there are all drivers available.
I think you forget to install two or more drivers.
Here you can download it:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com => Support & Downloads => Download Drivers
Search for your model and you will get a list of all drivers. Then you can compare which drivers you didnt install yet.
As Jeffrey said, I should be the AMD Processor Driver, Realtek driver and the card reader.

Satellite L350D-213 frquently overheats and turns off

Hello
Recently been having trouble with my Toshiba Laptop Satellite L350D-213, it frquently overheats and turns off, any suggestions as to stop it overheating would be greatly appriciated

Hi
There are a lot of advices regarding the overheating issue.
First of all the notebook shuts down automatically in order to prevent the hardware parts from damage the higher temperature could affect the parts and this is the reason why the notebook shuts down.
Why the temperature is too high?
Well, maybe the cooling modules dont run with best performance due to dust and debris inside the modules?
This is mostly the reason why the fans cannot rotate and cannot cool down the notebook.
I recommend checking this and to remove the dust and debris from cooling vents using compressed air spray.
I do this from time to time and it helps to keep the fans clean

Satellite Pro C850 wont work after Bios update

my satellite pro c850 cd wont work after bios update from toshiba.
what do i do?

Saying: dont work you mean it does not power up or what do you mean exactly?
Did you flash the BIOS properly?
Possibly something went wrong during the update and this means that ROM module isnt flashed properly
In most cases a special BIOS crisis disk would be needed to get it working
Not quite sure if you can get it fixed by your own
Check this thread. Maybe it helps:

Satellite L350D - BIOS crash after update?

Hey all.
Was putting windows XP onto my Satellite L350D, worked fine, had all the drivers in etc and working perfectly. Came back onto the toshiba website and saw there was a BIOS update for it, so, downloaded, and told it to install. Half way through it shut the laptop down (power pack fine and had full battery, so must have been the update).
Now it won't boot up what so ever. The power light comes on but nothing else works.
Im guessing it has wiped the BIOS or corrupted it, is there any fix for this or can I send it back to toshiba or am I out of luck?

Dependant on your skill level a new bios chip can be placed on the board. I'm not familular with your board but generally bios chips come in two flavours, ones that you can place in a holder (more often or not on desktops) and ones that are soldered onto the motherboard. There are places on line that sell bios chips loaded with your laptops bios, it's just a case of then replacing the chip. If you have no soldering skills I wouldn't recommmend doing this yourself though.
