Satellite L650-PSK1JE - can't get 5.1 or sound - only stereo

I have Toshiba sattelite L650-PSK1JE with mobility radon 5650, and is connected via HDMI to my sony reciever
whitch is then via another HDMI connected to TV.
Problem is that I can't get 5.1 or quadrophonic sound from notebook, only stereo.
I have tried installing drivers from TOSHIBA web site, and also drivers from other sites (everi time deleteng old drivers) and still can't get it to work. Currently have ATI 12.6 drivers. and official conexant audio drivers .
In sound propertis it says that max number of chanels is 2. But in graphics card manual it is said that it suports up to 7.1 via HDMI.
Funny thing is that once (but only once) surround sound worked, and i had a choice to select 5.1.
Is there possibility that i need to do something with mi sony DH520 reciever.

> Problem is that I can't get 5.1 or quadrophonic sound from notebook, only stereo.
Im not expert for this but, as far as I know in the past Toshiba has offered notebooks with optical sound port (red light inside the sound-out port) and it was possible to get 5.1 sound activating available 5.1 option in sound settings. Toshiba has offered it on Qosmio and some Satellite notebooks.
Out of curiosity: do you use original preinstalled OS that you got with your notebook?
I want to buy Pioneer VSX-S500 so this is very interesting for me to know if you will be able to get it work properly.

Satellite P200-1K8 - Can't get the display and sound drivers to work

Hi.
I'm getting desperate. I tried everything I could imagine.
First - don't get the catalyst control center to work, I only have the graphic driver installed now (tried both - the one from Toshiba and with Mobility Modder modified ATi driver - none works.
Second - when I install the sound driver the Realtek sound manager is encoutering the problem and must close every time at startup. And yes, I did update the BIOS to ver. 5.20, installed XPSP3, installed chipset driver (newest from Intel homepage or the one from Toshiba, no matter which, always same issue).
Please help. I don't want to spend rest of my life trying to get XP onto my laptop.
Thanks in advance.

So I did check the BIOS version again and it is 5.40 indeed. Then I installed the updates from Microsoft that were downloaded when Iwas away. I think that was mistake. Errors, errors, malicious software (and there were only some codecs and players installed yet). So I reformated and reinstalled the Windows and drivers except audio driver.
According to MS (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/835221/en-us & http://support.microsoft.com/kb/888111/en-us) the patch KB888111 is the updated KB835221 and before installing it, the KB835221 should be uninstalled. So I tried to install the KB888111 only and got Error message: Setup has detected that the Service Pack version of this system is newer than the update you are applying. It seems that I don't need to install these patches since I have XPSP3.
So I installed the sound driver again and in Device manager everything seems to be OK. I only have this annoying message at every startup: Realtek Voice Manager encountered a problem and must close. What is this Voice manager anyway? And any other solution? I didn't install the camera yet. I think it won't work again.
Any new ideas?
Thank you all.

How can I get Data from the Sound cart in Labview? Does a VI exist?

How can I get Data from the Sound cart in Labview? Does a VI exist?

Yes, there are VIs for acquiring data from Sound cards. And examples too. If you don't have LabVIEW yet, do a search on NI's site for example VIs.

Satellite A200-1M4: Can I get Windows Vista separately?

Hello
When I install Product Recovery CD, it installs Windows Vista and many programs I don't need.
I want just to install Windows Vista (even excluding drivers).
So, can I get Windows Vista (Home Premium) setup separately?
Thanks

Hello
There is no separately setup. You are not alone with this opinion and nobody force you to use all installed stuff. I remove also all stuff I do not need.
Install OS using recovery CD, download all Microsoft updates to be sure everything is up to date and then remove all stuff you do not need. Believe me I do the same.
Just for example - I have one Satellite delivered with WXP and I have done follow:
1. Installed OS using delivered recovery DVD
2. Installed all Microsoft updates
3. Removed all applications I do not need
4. Installed all applications I need for work (Office, Nero and so on)
5. Installed Norton Ghost
6. Created my own recovery image
Now I can reinstall my own OS and after just 30 minutes everything is there. In case of some virus or any other strange issue I have install OS again (on partition C). All saved data on partition D are still there and can be used after image installation.

Satellite L650-1M0 - CAN'T install new display driver

Hello!
I have Toshiba Satellite L650-1M0 and i CAN'T install new drivers to my graphic card: Mobility Radeon HD 5650 from the AMD site. Why i cannot do it? I want to install the latest display drivers because i have problems with display mode. My laptop is set on 16:9 but some programs display in 4:3.
Please give the latest drivers on the Toshiba site or tell me what should i do to download drivers from AMD site. I have Windows 7 64x ;).

>Why i cannot do it?
Im really wondering you are asking something like this. It is well known that support for mobile units (notebooks) is offered by notebook manufacturer and not by hardware manufacturer.
Due to specific notebook design and limited cooling performance graphic card cannot be upgraded as on graphic cards designed for desktops. New driver means more performance. More performance means more heat and result can be graphic card damage or switch-offs because of critical hardware temperature.

Satellite C660-18C - Can't get the microphone to work

So I couldnt get the microphone to work so I bought a new one. I also can not get this to work. I have tried everyway I can think of and it simply will not register any sound and yes the microphone is on and the volume is full.
Can someone please help me fix this? Its driving me crazy!

Hi belthazora,
Just to make sure we talk about an external microphone that you have connected to microphone jack and not internal one? I ask this because the notebook doesnt have internal microphone.
Anyway, if you use an external microphone make sure its listed in sound devices under recording tab. Can you see it there?
I would also recommend a sound driver update if it doesnt work. You can download all updates on official Toshiba page:

Satellite C850 - Where can I get and Win7 istallation .iso from?

Hi guys,
I've searched around and found lots of threads, but haven't actually found a solution.
I bought C850 with Win7-64-home-premium preinstalled for my wife.
First I wanted to decline Microsoft EULA and claim money back for Win7 licence, but I thought its only 50 or 60 quid, and I might want it once a year so I left it as is.
First impression - its Terrible slow !!!
I have an old NB100, with Atom and 2GB RAM running Linux witch I use from time to time when I work on the move and this old tiny netbook is A LOT faster then my new C850 with i3 and 8GB of RAM. I mean A LOOOOOT faster.
Then I run Mint Live-CD and then I saw how fast C850 can be if only given real operating system instead of Microsofts crapware.
Then I installed WIn7-64-professional and there was a BIG difference. It wasn't nowhere near as fast as on Linux Mint, but it was whole lot better then original install.
That was only to check how it goes on clean install. I do not have licence for Win7-pro for C850 and I have not even a slightest intention of paying for something as useless as Win7. People should be paid for all the suffering caused by Win7.
On the other hand I would gladly pay for Linux Mint and in fact I have made a nice donation to the project not long time ago :)
Conclusion - slowdown was casued by Toshiba bloatware (which is completely not needed for proper operation of laptop!) and all the other stuff like McAfee or Nero.
I've tried to do reinstall but the reinstalled Win7 comes with all this bloatware and I need clean Win7 install.
To cut short answers like "install and delete waths not needed" - that doesn't solve the problem for two reasons:
1) if install and delete, a lot of stuff stays on the system, registry entries, lots of files etc
2) I need and .iso of Win7, so I can slipstream few things and get rid of WHOLE LOT of useless things
Where can I get and istallation .iso from ?
I mean clean Win7 without all that Toshiba bloatware, McAfee, Nero and other rubbish.
Mind you, I purchased a laptop with Win7 licence so I do have LEGAL RIGHT to use Win7 on its own.
Any hint VERY MUCH appreciated.
Thank you.

On this forum you can find a lot of similar threads where people write about the same experience. We can discuss about this theme for days but the conclusion is always the same: new notebooks are delivered with recovery image that contains OS, all necessary drivers, Toshiba specific tools and utilities, additional software and some stuff that nobody needs.
Nobody force notebook owners to use recovery image like this. What you must do is OS optimizing. Remove all software you dont need, disable auto start for all not important stuff and check Windows settings. I do the same all the time and there is big difference how notebook runs, especially start-up time will be much shorter. On this forum you can find very interesting threads about that.
So my advice for you is to install recovery image again and optimize it. The performance will be OK and your wife will have nice piece of hardware for everyday work.
> 1) if install and delete, a lot of stuff stays on the system, registry entries, lots of files etc
Everything can be removed but if you dont do this it is definitely not so critical for notebook performance.
> 2) I need and .iso of Win7, so I can slipstream few things and get rid of WHOLE LOT of useless things
At first, you will not find iso file anywhere and slipstreaming will not work at all. You cannot unbundle recovery image and use parts that you need. It doesnt work on this way.
I just hope you have created recovery disc before you have started your testing phase.

Can I get 5.1 Surround Sound from Mac to Apple TV?

Hi,
I have an iPad, iPhone and an Apple TV, and I love airplay, such a great feature!
I'm thinking of replacing my desktop for a mac and I was wondering; if I had a 5.1 surround encoded video file on my mac, would I be able to push the whole screen to Apple TV through mirroring and still get the 5.1 sound output to my audio receiver and speaker setup?
I'm NOT asking if I can airplay an mp4 encoded movie through iTunes at 5.1; I know I can already do that on my desktop and it works fine.
What I'm looking for is the ability to simply mirror what's playing on the mac to my hdtv through Apple TV, while still retaining the full 5.1 surround mix and outputting it to my audio receiver (i.e. Without having to convert the file type and drag it or play it in iTunes).
So before I take the plunge and spend over a grand on a mac, is this possible?
If this isn't possible I will probably just get a Mac mini and plug it directly into my receiver via hdmi. I can't see any problems doing it that way (I hope!)
Any info here would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Thanks for your assistance, but I spent quite some time researching this before posting, and the post you link to (which I've already read) doesn't actually answer my question, that person is asking about his wireless speakers receiving individual sound channels through airplay. Other discussions, which I've also looked at, seem inconclusive.
I was really posting in the hopes of finding anyone who had personal experience of trying to play a fullscreen, 5.1 surround video file using airplay mirroring from their mac to their Apple TV, and if they received 5.1 sound.
Thanks again for your help though.

Can i get more memory as i only have 1 gb as my mac is 4 year old

can i get more memory for my mac pro as its only 1gb 10.6.8 version

you want to ask in the macbook pro forum I assume.
regardless, yes you can and the model year (2008?) or MacBook Pro X,Y (number)
www.macsales.com/memory is a good place to check what is available.
I thought 2GB was req'd and 4GB would be strongly recommended for 10.6 and above.

How can I get access back to sounds and lessons I have not downloaded before updating?

When I purchased my Mac about two months ago, I had access to all of the lessons and sounds, I just had to download them. I recently downloaded and installed the update and in doing so I lost access to sounds and lessons I had not downloaded. It tells me that I need to purchase the sounds and lessons package. How can I get access back since I have already purchased it?

Apple does not support downgrading the iOS.
Yes, iOS 7 looks quite different. But there are many new and valuable features. As time goes on you will not remember how it used to look.

I can't get my iMac to respond only the right click works

I can't get my iMac to restart itt seems to start Rita back where it was when I restart and my mouse is not responding right. I can't get it to click regularly. Only the right click works

Which mouse and iMac do you have? Over the past 4 years or so there have been at least 3 mice that work on Intel based iMacs.
The first place to check is the mouse's preferences which are at System Preferences - Mouse.
If they are set correctly then do a SMC reset and see if that solves the issue:
SMC RESET
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Attach the computers power cable.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
PRAM RESET
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

After installing update I can't get a full screen. Only tabs under foxfire symbol on task bar.

I had to "un-install" Foxfire and reinstall the older version I was using. Every time I tried to install the update it messed up and I could never make it open to full screen. It just kept opening the tabs under the Foxfire symbol on the task bar. Has updating caused this for
others? I am using HP desktop with updated Windows 8. (hate windows 8) Everything works fine until I install the Foxfire update.

I have the same problem ......when I try to update foxfire it messes up and then I can not get anything but a little square under the foxfire logo on the taskbar...just will not open to full screen only blank except for the tiny square under logo of foxfire....so will just leave things the way they are as they work fine so guess it is ...I did go to HP and installed all update and also Windows
