Satellite L750 - drivers installation problem

Hello good people of the internet,
I have a problem with drivers' updates/installation on my Satellite L750-1E3, Windows 7-64 bit.
When I launch the installer, it decompresses, telling me it will launch afterwards, but then the window closes and nothing further happens.
I've read about the same problem one person here had with the L855-10P series but, maybe because I'm a girl or maybe because I'm not a native English speaker, I didn't uderstand what to do...
I actually have problem with more things.
My webcam stopped working, when I try to launch it I get the error message that tells me "the initialization went wrong, restart your webcam or computer".
So I tried to reinstall the driver but the problem I described above appeared.
The same driver installation problem appeared when Tempro told me to update my blu-ray driver (I download all the drivers from eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com).
And the last one, for about a month there are problems with the sound on my notebook.
First cracking of sound and then it stops working completely and I have to restart the computer.
Again, I tried to reinstall the sound drivers.
There are two drivers on the Toshiba site, one of them reinstalled just fine but the other one (nvidia, I think) had the same problem as the other drivers.
Someone please tell me what to do, because I am becaoming really desperate and I seriously considered throwing my notebook out of the window.
Thank you

Usually the HDD recovery is the easiest to get the notebooks factory settings and to get it running again.
>My webcam stopped working, when I try to launch it I get the error message that tells me "the initialization went wrong, restart your webcam or computer". So I tried to reinstall the driver but the problem I described above appeared..
Its interesting to know if the webcam or an unknown imagine device (probably webcam) appear in device manager. Please check this.
If the webcam isnt listed there, you should check if the webcam is enabled in BIOS.
To access the BIOS press F2. Then go to Advanced tab -> System configuration -> webcam
If the webcam is enabled in BIOS but still not recognized and not listed in device manager, then you should recover the notebook to factory setting to check if the webcam module isnt faulty.
>The same driver installation problem appeared when Tempro told me to update my blu-ray driver (I download all the drivers from eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com).
The Blu-ray player update works only for notebook equipped with blu-ray drive. If your notebook does not support blu-ray drive

Drivers installation problems after replacing Win Xp Home Ed by Win Xp pro.

Help needed.
I have a Toshiba stellite M70 -SR2(purchased last December), which came with Win Xp Home Ed pre-installed on it. I remove the Home Ed and installed my XP pro Spk2. Now I can't get my wireless connection to communicate with my Linsys router so I can connect to the internet, the video card can't be installed,...
I only managed to download and install the sound drivers and the modem drivers.
I downloaded the Display Drivers, unzipped the file but unable to install them like I managed with the sound drivers.
In my device manager screen I still get a yellow marke in front of:
-Eternet Controller
-SM Bus Controller
-Video Controler (VGA Compatible)
Can some one gives instructions on how to get and install these drivers or where can I find the instructions.
Thankx

Hi
Well, the right installation order is very important because some drivers and utilities cannot be installed without the other drivers.
I recommend to follow the installation instruction and to install the whole stuff.
If you dont need something so you can remove it from the OS in Add & remove software.
To solve the yellow question mark problem you have only to install the drivers.
Chipset driver (at the beginning), Lan/Wlan driver, display driver.
But if you follow the installation instruction you shouldnt get any yellow question marks.

Problem using Toshiba Software Installer for Win 7 on Satellite L750-1MT

Hello!
I have problem using Toshiba Software Installer for Win 7 on Satellite L750-1MT (PSK30E-02T002B3) with no OS preinstalled.
I do the following:
1. Install Windows 7 x64, SP1.
2. Install LAN driver (device was not recognized by Windows 6) (downloaded from [http://se.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/supportMyProduct.do?service=SE&LNG=26&userAction=S MP_RESULTS_PAGE&partNumber=PSK30E-02T002B3&serialNumber=&USER_ACTION=Serial%20number])
3. Install all Windows Updates from Microsoft
4. Run Toshiba Software Installer for Win 7 - it installs a couple of drivers and then asks to reboot.
Here is the log file for the first try (win7update.log):
Update started 12\28\2011 at 21:11

util_tvap_TC00215000H.exe /s /log /test /wait15 has been installed with the result code of PASS
Update completed at 21:29
After reboot I run it again and the result is:
Update started 12\28\2011 at 21:38
Toshiba Bluetooth stack has already been installed.
Toshiba Value Added Package has already been installed.
Update completed at 21:40
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

No Win 8.1 drivers for Satellite L750-129

Hey,
I have a Toshiba Satellite L750-129 PSK30E and due to the need to format the machine and some other conditions I have installed Windows 8.1 on my system.
Also I managed to install a chipset driver, nVidia video driver and some other drivers. But a problem appears when I try to find/install an audio driver. I have a Conexant system and on Windows 7 its drivers worked fine (those found on the Toshiba website). I did not seem to find ANY Windows 8/8.1 drivers for my laptop anyhow (Toshiba doesn't even bother making them?!) but some Win 7 ones still seemed to work except for the audio one.
So, long question short: how can I get my hands on a driver that would support my laptop's needs?

That model is not supported for Windows 8.

Do anyone knows drivers installation order for Satellite A660-11M

Do anyone knows the drivers installation order for Satellite a660-11m?
I've got some issue installing Win 7 pro (wlan do not work properly,
freezing few minutes after laptop startup, unabling to run CHKDSK on C:).
Reading this forum it seems to me these aren't new issues for Toshiba users.

Hi, friends.
I've installed the the Flash Card Support Utility. In effect, now the function keys work. ;) <img class="emoticon" border="0" alt="" />
Unfortunately it seems that problems are hard to die. The Laptop, in fact, keeps freezing, tipically but not exclusively, after resuming from suspension due to lid closing. System can stucks during windows login or after a while that user is logged on.
During these days i've discovered that SPTD.exe x64 v.1.74 (Daemon Tools) and Nod32 x64 makes impossible launching chkdsk on %SystemDrive% (countdown stucked on 1 and hdd led blinked with very short ON state). However, even without installing those, it seems that one is not able to break the countdown (that windows shows before it starts chkdsk) pressing a key.
But maybe I should open a new topic for talcking about this.

Satellite L750-1WW - OEM Windows 7 home premium reinstall

Hello,
a few days ago I bought an used (about 3 years old) Toshiba Satellite L750-1WW notebook.
The only matter with it is, that it has Windows 7 Professional, and of course corrupted, but the original OS was Home Premium. This laptop will be my mother's, and I don't want (and she also) to get messages every startup: "This copy of Windows is not genuine" and other stuff.
Another thing: there is no recovery partition! I couldn't make a simple system recovery...
However there's a Product key for Win7 HP 64bit on the bottom of the PC, it does not work on any kind of Windows 7 (Home Premium -Ultimate - Professinal, 32-64 bit), I have tried every possibilities.
I asked Microsoft Community to give me help about reinstalling the original operating system.
They told me to tell my problem to Toshiba, because only the manufacturer can reactivate the system, or reinstall the original OS.
So now, I ask You for some help.
Greetings,
Csaba

I don't know where you have bought this notebook but I know, for instance, that many people who sold notebooks on the eBay write in description that notebook has preinstalled other Windows version but notebook has valid product key that can be used for any Windows activation.
Fact is that this information is wrong.
Every Toshiba notebook offered with preinstalled OS has Microsoft sticker at the bottom side but product key on it belongs to original version delivered with the notebook. With other words: this product key s useless.
If I understand you right you have non-activated OS version preinstalled on this machine but also you don't have original recovery installation disc.
Now you have two options:
1/ To order original recovery disc (link posted by Tonny)
2/ To install own OS version using Microsoft installation disc and pay for valid licence.
In my opinion option to buy recovery disc is best for you. Using this disc in 2 hours you will have perfectly installed OS that will be activated and you will not have any problems anymore.
After clean OS installation all you must do is to optimize it and configure for usage. Thats all.

Disk failure on Satellite L750

My wife's Satellite L750 HDD appeared to have failed so being an enthusiastic amateur computer enthusiast, I have successfully built a number of PCs, I took the HDD out tried to reformat it and install a copy of Windows 7. I previously ascertained that the recovery software on the laptop wasn't working.
Before installing Windows 7 I tried to get rid of the partitions on the HDD and whilst I couldn't get rid of them all I did manage to reduce them. I formatted the re-constituted HDD and tried to load Windows 7 which appeared to work but when I came to use the laptop I had no drivers and no way of installing them as I had no internet access. I am now left with a blank HDD and I was contemplating buying a Recovery Disk form Toshiba.
My question is will it work or will I have to take the laptop to an authorised dealer?

When you order original recovery installations disc you can install recovery image alone. You don't need help from ASP.
Recovery image can be ordered on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx
When you get recovery image start your notebook and press F12 to enter boot menu. When the boot menu is shown on the screen put recovery disc into optical disc drive. Choose CD/DVD on the list and press ENTER button. Recovery installation will start and all you must do is to follow menu on the screen.

Satellite L750 - Atheros AR9002WB-1NG Internet connection issue

I purchased a Toshiba Satellite L750 and a Linksys/Cisco Modem Router WAG120N at the beginning of June and have had trouble ever since connecting to the internet.
I have a desktop PC hard wired to the modem and don't have any problems accessing the internet. The laptops wireless internet connection keeps either dropping it or not displaying a webpage (even though it says it is connected). It will only run efficiently when connected by ethernet cable directly to the modem. Linksys have told me they believe the Atheros is not compatible with the modem and to contact Toshiba and ask them for the latest download to update the driver adaptor. I am currently running the one listed in the heading.
Can anyone help? I don't know much about these things. Thank you.

Hi Lisa C,
Do you have these issues on preinstalled Windows 7 version from Toshiba or on your own Windows installation?
Does it happen in eco mode or maximum performance too?
This issue could be related to power saving function of your WLAN card. In Windows power management you can disable the WLAN power saving function. You have to set it to maximum performance for every power profile.
Furthermore a WLAN driver update is always recommendable. You can download the latest version on Toshiba WLAN portal:

Flash Cards do not work on my Satellite L750

Hello,
I own a Toshiba Satellite L750 PSK1WA-03C00R and my flash cards do not work, the function keys work, but my flash cards do not.
This model does not come with the Flash Card Support Utility, it does however come with the Value Added Package.
I have uninstalled, CCleaned and reinstalled and repeated mulitple times, trying to get this to work properly. I have also restarted after each of these steps.
I can't figure the problem out and thought that I'd see what you guys' recommend before I resort to getting Toshiba's support services.
I also do not want to have to resort to a system restore, but, if I really have to and have no choice, I will when I can.
I hope someone may be able to help me and do look forward to what support you can offer me.
Thanks in advance.
-Chris.

Hello Pedro,
I have checked on thses settings and there is the option to allow the mouse to bring up the flash cards, this will bring up the flash cards if I would like to do that, I would however love to use the keys seeing as the mouse option seems to close any games I may have running and take me to desktop and this is not preferrable.
There is no "Reset Flash Cards" option, I have serched through many files and done many serches for this option and no luck, which is a shame.
Do you have any other suggestions? I would love to have this work.
The reason I did the reinstall was to get my brightness keys to work again. Sure, this fixed the problem, but now I have no flash cards. Any suggestions would make me a very, very happy man.
Thanks in advance.
-Chris

Satellite L750 will not open path

I have a new Satellite L750.
I am trying to do a course on my computer which I have purchased the disc for.
The course has paths to click on that are to link up with the files downloaded from the disc supplied to a folder in WINDOWS (C:) Program Files(x86).
The problem I am getting is that the path fails and a warning window comes up saying the path file can not be found, On looking at the file information on the warning window, it appears that the file has been doubled to include an extra WINDOWS (C:) Program Files(x86) so it reads: C:\Program Files(x86)\C:\Program Files(x86)\...........................
So obviously it will not find the file.
Why is it doing this, and how can I cure it.
It would make doing the course so much easier.
I have contacted the course provider and they are not sure why this is happening.
Also what is the difference between Program Files and Program Files(x86) folders.
Anybody got a clue.

> Why is it doing this, and how can I cure it.
Do you really think that this is a problem with a computer or Windows system software?
I doubt.
Firstly I would trying to copy the content of the disk to the new created folder.
Then go to this folder and check if there is a file like autostart or index which needs to be started firstly.
> Also what is the difference between Program Files and Program Files(x86) folders.
The difference is simply:
I assume you are using Windows 64bit so Program Files refers to the 64bit programs and Program Files(x86) folder refers to 32bit applications.

Is it possible to upgrade GPU on my Satellite L750?

I have a Satellite L750,Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit,Intel Core i3-380M Processor,640 GB in hard disk,4,096 MB DDR3 RAM (1,066 MHz),Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD.
I'm sure by now you know why i want to upgrade my graphic card,everything is good except my graphic card,this is like a nightmare to me because now i can't keep on playing the games i used to,which are so many,so if an expert reads this thread,please help me.
Is there anything I can do?
Any advice or suggestion would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

GPU upgrade is not supported and cannot be done. Due to specific design and hardware configuration hardware upgrade is very limited.
Graphic card with more power produce more heat and that is the main problem by mobile machines. Cooling system designed for your notebook is optimized for certain graphic card.

Satellite L750 turns on and off by itself using Linux

Today I have experienced some strange behaviour on my notebook. It unexpectedly shuts down, after showing a dialog window saying "Your computer will shut down in 60 seconds". And then, when I turn it back on, it just shuts down before booting and it turns back on by itself after a few seconds.
It does not overheat, the CPU temp is normally between 50-60C (I constantly monitor it using Conky). Also, someone told me to upgrade the BIOS, so I did it, but the problem still persists. I have also tried to replace the RAM and run a memcheck, but everything looks fine on the memory side.
I use linux, and had a look on "/var/log/syslog", but I'm not sure I know exactly what to look for. The messages logged before shutting down don't seem to describe anything suspicious.
I use Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, but it seems the problem is more hardware related and I would like to investigate what causes it to shut down so randomly. The same thing happens on Windows, but there's no warning before shutting down.
My notebook is a Toshiba Satellite L750-11w.
Any clues would be highly appreciated.

>I use Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, but it seems the problem is more hardware related and I would like to investigate what causes it to shut down so randomly. The same thing happens on Windows, but there's no warning before shutting down.
You checked the notebook functionality using Windows system but did you use the Toshiba recovery disk and did you test it using factory settings?
Im wondering about the message: your computer will shut down in 60 seconds
If it would be an hardware problem, then the notebook would shut down without any warning messages.
Therefore I assume there must be an software issue I guess some setting triggers this automatic shut down.
But to be honest i have no idea what setting could be
If you think its hardware related problem, I guess only an notebook technician would be able to help you.

Re: Satellite L750 - advanced mouse settings are not working properly

Satellite L750 model (One month old). The problem is that every time I start the computer, only works the point device of the mouse synaptics , but retains the advanced settings as pressing with three fingers, turns or you can use the wheel to move up and down the page. The funny thing is that is activated by clicking the mouse icon in the Control Panel. Once I access the icon, the mouse works perfectly and appears in the toolbar.
In Device Management, tells me that works perfectly and that the driver is updated.
Does anyone think of any solution? thanks

Hi
To be honest, I dont really understand what you are talking about.
Do you have problems with the USB mouse or the touchpad?
What device does not work correctly: mouse or touchpad?
The L750 series supports an touchpad with additional feature called Gesture (Multi Touch).
Here you can find nice description on Synaptics page how it works.
http://www.synaptics.com/solutions/technology/touchpad
Furthermore the settings could be found in control panel -> mouse -> Advanced tab
FYI: You can disable and enable the touchpad function pressing the small button above the touchpad surface (On/OFF).

[SOLVED] nVidia 87.76 Drivers installer fails to build kernel module

Hey,
I have a nVidia GeForce2 Integrated graphics card on my Asus A7N266 motherboard. According to the nVidia site, http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_32667.html, the most recent driver that supports this is the 96.xx series. Yet as shown here, http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=87332, many people have found that the 96.xx series drivers cause graphical corruption when using a GeForce2 IGP.
Before coming to Arch, I had used Xubuntu 7.04 and managed to compile the last known working drivers, version 87.76, following the instructions here: http://kmandla.wordpress.com/2007/03/25 … 20-12-386/
That all went well but now I'm using Arch. I tried using the nvidia-96.xx driver in the repos just for testing sake but I still got the same graphical corruption.
Thus I have been trying to install the 87.76 drivers on Arch, but it always fails at the kernel module building stage. I had first applied this patch here, http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthr … ost1086669, before compling as the plain driver wont compile against recent kernels.

The name of the directory you placed the driver in contains spaces. That is why you get the no rule to make target GLX error.

HDMI stops working on Satellite L750

Hi there.
Will be happy if someone can help with this issue.
I connected my Satellite L750, PSK2YA-04K010 with Windows 7 sp1, (64 bit) to my TV today using a brand new HDMI cable. It worked fine for a while and then the display on the TV went dead. I could still manage to get the display on the laptop to work.
I used Fn + F5 to see if I can trouble get it back to life but it did not work. After a long struggle, I just could not get the TV to work again with HDMI.
I checked to see if I have all the latest drivers and all seem OK. I re-installed the nVidia video drivers and then tested it again. Same thing happened. It work for a while and then died on me again.
I noticed that I have a version 1.5 BIOS but can't find a site where it lists the latest BIOS update.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Hein

Hi Xaver
Thank you very much for your email. Yes, I did try another HDMI port. The TV has 3 x HDMI ports but the same thing happend on the other port.
The strange thing is that it works fine for a while. For example, I would use the FN+F5 to display a video clip on my laptop display and also on the TV display together. This will work for about 10 min and then the TV display goes black and will refuse to come back to display the output on the TV screen. I have noticed that the NVIDEA Control Panel will only show one display is connected after when this happens. Usually it will show both displays when I start off in the NVIDEA Control Panel.
The laptop display will continue to play the video on its display even after the TV display has gone black.
I have turned the TV on/off to see if the display comes back but no luck. I am pretty convinced that it will work for a few minutes if I reinstall the NVIDEA driver again (This is the latest driver on the Toshiba website).
I have looked at the 'Service Station' program and this program claims that there are no updates required.
Would be nice to know where I can find the latest BIOS upgrade for this model laptop.
Thanks again.
