Satellite L850/0C9 and HDMI resolutions
Hi all.
Ive recently purchased a L850/0C9 and I can't get the HDMI to output at 1360x768 which is my panels native resolution.
Using a vga cable I can output to 1360x768 just not with HDMI
Any ideas?
Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit
> In first sentence you can get right resolution using HDMI but in second this is not possible. Im confused.
He is able to get the resolution using VGA cable but not HDMI ;)
*@Devok*
My notebook supports HDMI and DVI output.
I was not able to get the resolution using HDMI but DVI output
From my understanding not all resolution might be supported by graphic card or graphic chip so this might be one of the reasons
If display driver cause this, then an update should be performed.

Satellite L850/0C9: Toshiba Service Station recommending wrong BIOS update?
I have a Satellite L850-0C9 laptop and Toshiba Service Station is recommending I install the new BIOS update labelled "Satellite Pro C850 BIOS Update - v6.50".
Should I install this as its not the same model as my laptop,
If not why is Service Station recommending I install it?I assume this is your notebook and these are all the drivers and BIOS available for this notebook model:
http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/computers/satellite/l850/pskdla-0c900r/download
The latest BIOS is v6.50 and it looks to be the right one.
The Pro C850 seems to belongs to the same series so possibly the BIOS is the same.
However, the BIOS update is always an sensitive procedure and from my point of view its not really necessary if you dont have an serious problems. -
Re: Satellite L850-0C9 - Cannot use USB3.0 External HDD
Hello!
I'm looking for some help from you guys
because i cannot use my NEW SEAGATE USB 3.0 EXTERNAL HDD 2TB with my labtop (L850-0C9)
my labtop has 2 blue USB port and i guess it is USB 3.0 and i checked it from manual.
but when i tried to copy data to the hard disk, and after 1 minute then it keeps showing the message "the destination you have specified does not exist". it happens everytime.
but i found one interesting point of it that it works great with usb 2.0 port so now i'm using it with that port.
it shows that the hdd doesn't have problem but my laptop does in my logic.
so i updated almost every drivers and firmware from support page icluding intel usb 3.0 driver.
but it is showing the same message as before.
Does anyone know how to solve it?
Have a nice easter holiday anyway!!nope! it is without AC power unit.
but it is working okay with usb 2.0 port.. -
Satellite L850-1HR and Win7- unable to Install Display Driver
Hello
I reinstalled my Toshiba Satellite L850 notebook with older Windows 7. I installed also all the drivers necessary. After I installed display driver in device manager under Display adapetrs I see message that adapter is not functioning properly because system is unable to load drivers.
On Win7 there is also SP1 installed. I cannot see why drivers are not loaded properly. Does anybody have any idea about what could be wrong ?
Thanks, MatejaHi
The Satellite L850-1HR is equipped with an ATI Radeon HD 7670M graphic chip
I assume the ATI driver is not installed properly.
On the Toshiba EU driver page especially in Satellite L850 PSKG8E download area I could not find the Win 7 AT driver.
But I checked drivers available for all L850 series and I found AMD display drivers.
You should do this too. Choose Satellite L850 series (in short model no choose All) in the driver download form and you will get all available drivers for Win 7 and Win 8
The AMD display drivers should be listed too.,. -
Satellite L850 - external 1080p display problems
I had been running my Satellite L850 laptop via HDMI to an external monitor without problem for many months.
A couple of weeks ago I attempted to update the catalyst driver and have had problems ever since.
Basically now when I select 1080p mode via the catalyst control panel it makes the screen flash and have vertical lines.
Occasionally it will work for a short period, even up to an entire day and than it will randomly start again. I can play a game in 1080p mode and it will be totally random, sometimes allowing me to play for hours without having the black screen flashes whilst other times it will flash constantly and the only way to resolve is to either restart or pull out the HDMI cable and plug back in and cross your fingers you have enough time to reopen catalyst and change to 720P which is always stable.
I have tried:
1. Using the AMD Catalyst removal tool and reinstalling via the original factory default Toshiba catalyst drivers
2. Using System Restore to go back before I made the changes
3. Using the AMD Catalyst removal tool and updating to the newest version via AMD website.
4. Reinstalling my chipset drivers along with #1
5. Tried a different monitor (still happens)
On a side note every time I use the removal tool it removes my USB drivers also and I have to reinstall.
The current graphics driver is AMD Radeon HD 7670M and I have also tried the solution on the tech support forum here http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/item/781.
I have run out of options other than a complete format and reinstall which I want to avoid if possible. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advanceProbably your problem has nothing to do with the picture issue mentioned in the technical document posted by MisterX.
I could read in your first post above, that this issue appeared exactly after the driver update.
> A couple of weeks ago I attempted to update the catalyst driver and have had problems ever since.
Are you 100% sure that the display driver update has caused this problem?
You have also mentioned that this issue does not appear always but sporadically and every once in a while.
From my point of few there are some open questions:
1) Is it really an graphic card driver problem or maybe an GPU issue?
If the issue did not appear in the past (before the GPU driver update) then yes: it could be related to the driver.
2) The notebook support also an Intel HD graphic card (its part of the Intel CPU)
I think you should check if the same issue would appear using the Intel GPU.
Try to uninstall the AMD driver (from device manager as well as from programs & features are within the control panel) and test it using Intel GPU only.
3) Last but not least test the notebooks video output with fresh recovered notebook. After the recovery the graphic card driver should be the same which you have used before the update. -
WiFi doesen't work on my new Satellite L850-13Q
I just bought an Satellite L850-13Q and my WiFi doesen't work. Win 7 64bit and I installed the Atheros driver for this system but it tell There are no aviable connection, but my old computer find a lots of them.
I turn it on with the FN+F12 keys, and the orange led is light. What can I do?Hi
Did you mean the right indicator?
There are three LEDs in the front of the notebook.
The last one (the first from right) is an WLan indicator.
If this is ON, then the WLan should be enabled.
The notebooks WLan supports the 802.11 b, g and n standard.
Is your WLan router configured for b/g or n?
I think you should additionally try to configure the WLan again.
Go to control panel -> Network & Sharing center
On the left choose Manager wireless networks
Now press Add and configure the new WLan.
Ensure that you typed right SSID (wlan name), encryption and encryption password -
Can't play to Second Life with a Satellite l850 1rz
If anybody could help me I would be grateful... I tried to play Second Life with my new laptop Satellite L850 1rz and the viewer says that the drivers of the graphic card (AMD Radeon 7670M) are not installed properly, are out of date or the hardware it's incompatible (it shouldn't be by the requeriments).... I tried to install the newest drivers from the amd page but it don't let me... Could I fix it?? and (if yes) how??
(I still don't know if the graphic card will cause me more problems, I just recieved the laptop )That doesn't appear to be a US model, and this is the forums for Toshiba USA. You may want to contact Toshiba in your region. If it's a European model, you could check the Toshiba Europe forums.

Satellite L850: usage of AC adptor and battery at the same time?
Hi,
I have Satellite L850 and I need to know the good practice in charging the battery.
I mean by the good practice, the way by which I get the longest possible life for my laptop's battery.
Currently, I always keep my laptop connected to the charger power cord regardless its battery being completely charged or not. Does this behavior reduces the life time of the battery?
Also some of my friends advised me with strange advice, that I can to remove the battery even the computer is on when it is connected to the charger power cord! Does this safe and possible?
Please I'm waiting your help. If there is a documented answer it will be nice.
Best Regards
Said Bakr> Currently, I always keep my laptop connected to the charger power cord regardless its battery being completely charged or not. Does this behaviour reduce the life time of the battery?
I do the same all the tie and now after almost two years battery on my Satellite P500 is still in good condition so I think batteries are not so sensitive.
As Akuma wrote from time to time use notebook on battery power supply only and do a complete discharge and recharge.
> Also some of my friends advised me with strange advice, that I can to remove the battery even the computer is on when it is connected to the charger power cord! Does this safe and possible?
You can do this and use notebook without battery but I think it is not necessary. -
hi,
In my system multiple monitors are connected (VGA and HDMI). In need to know the
monitor instance name , device name , resolution and frequency of each monitor.. any solution?
i used wm class 'WmiMonitorConnectionParams' to determine Video output technology connection type and InstanceName.
But i didn't get the device name , resolution and frequency of each monitor.??
There are other wmi class like :
WmiMonitorBrightnessEvent
WmiMonitorConnectionParams
WmiMonitorRawEEdidV1Block
WmiMonitorListedFrequencyRanges
WmiMonitorDigitalVideoInputParams
WmiMonitorAnalogVideoInputParams
WmiMonitorID

WmiMonitorBasicDisplayParams
Win32_VideoController
Win32_VideoConfiguration

Win32_DisplayConfiguration
But unable to determine monitor having its corresponding values? please help me to find a solution .
is there any other method to get multi monitor details?
thank youHi sumith,
I read some documents about WmiMonitorConnectionParams class, it should be able to get the video putput technology by the D3DKMDT_VIDEO_OUTPUT_TECHNOLOGY enumeration.
D3DKMDT_VIDEO_OUTPUT_TECHNOLOGY enumeration
So what happens when you are using WmiMonitorConnectionParams class? What prevent you? Anyway, please see a example of using WmiMonitorConnectionParams class, maybe you could get some hints on it.

Needed Recovery CD and drivers for my Satellite L850-B148
Where can I Get a recovery and drivers cd for my Toshiba Satellite L850-B148?
Recently, I had my motherboard and HDD replaced and win7 freshly installed. But unfortunately, I could not find the CD that came with the laptop. Can you help?Hello
As I can see doc has already posted the links for drivers download. If you don't have recovery disc for recovery image installation you can install own OS version using Microsoft installation disc. All necessary drivers, tools and utilities you can download from Toshiba download page. Of course you must install them one by one.
In this case your preinstalled OS will not be activated as original recovery image so you must buy valid licence code (product key).
In my opinion best solution for you is to order original recovery installation disc. I don't know where do you live but I hope the link posted by doc will work for you.
Using recovery installation disc the whole package will be installed and when finished it is not necessary to install anything. OS, drivers and all necessary tools and utilities will be installed and configured properly. -
Satellite P300-1FN TV - HDMI stopped working...
Dear Anybody who knows more than me about this, so around 6billion people...
I recetly purchased both a Toshiba 32'' plasma TV (regza i think) and Toshiba Satellite P300-1FN.
I also purchased a HDMI cable and have been watching filthy movies from my laptop on my phat 32'' TV for a couple of months now. Lovely stuff.
After around 1 month, the HDMI port 1 stopped working. It just wouldn't pick up any signal from the computer, so i remove the cable and placed it in the HDMI port 2 on the back of the TV. Worked fine. (so i guess it's not the cable at fault) Again for about a month, now that's stopped working too...DA-DA-DA-DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUM...
Before, when i plugged it into the computer, both screens would turn black for around 3 seconds while they adjust the resolution, then the same image would appear on both. Now when i plug it in, the computer screen just 'blinks' followed shortly by the message on the relative HDMI TV channel 'no video signal', if i remember correctly.
WTF??
Cheers, Allan.Hi
Please don't be mad on me but you must understand it is user-to-user forum and if someone can help will probably write something and try to help. There is no reason for comments like the last one.
Anyway, I have good experience with HDMI and connection to the TV. I have Satellite P200D and Satellite A300, both with HDMI port. I have used both of them with my BRAVIA LCD TV and it works properly. Brothers Satellite P300-1GL doesnt made problems either.
So it is not easy to say what is wrong there but I can say that this behaviour is definitely not normal.
In my opinion you should contact nearest Toshiba service and let them check your notebook.
What else you can do? Not much, just test it eventually with some other LCD TV to see if the same happen.
Sorry for this late posting.
Lets see if someone else has some comment to this. -
Re: No Signal from Satellite C50D-A-139 HDMI out port
Hi
I have connected toshiba Satellite C50D-A-139 ( windows 7) via HDMI port ( using hdmi cable) to tv plasma, but on TV screen appears only "there is no signal".
I am sure that HDMI cable works good, becasuse it works with Playstation 3 correctly. I have tried to click "winows button + p" "fn button + F4", but there is no result. nothing happend.
I have also clicked right "mouse button" and choose "screen resolution" but there is also only one screen ( laptop screen) to choose. I tried to click "detect" but nothing happend.
Please, give me some advice...I have downloaded all drivers from "slim drivers free". Program scanned my computers and said that "all updates have been installed". I have also downloaded "Hw set up" from Toshiba website. That utility is directly for my laptop.
And now,when I have opened "HW set up", I've chosen icon "display", then - appears dispatch like this: " this bookmark purpose is to choose inside display or outside screener during activating/starting computer".
Then i have chosen "outside display device" - Tv and HDMI. After that, if I restart my laptop, signal is transmitted to my tv and my laptop display turns black. But only video signal is transmitted to Tv, Audio is still coming from notebook. After that I've return to previous settings.
I have also downoladed "Toshiba Satellite A300D HDMI Control Manager Driver 2.0.0.1", I have installed it but it seems that program doesn't work at all.
About FN keys : When for example I click "FN+f5"- touchpad switchs off, when I click "FN+F9/F10, volume goes up or down. But when I click "FN+F4" computer "Thinks" for a while, but nothing is happening
As you can see, I have enabled right HDMI port. Furthermore if I disconnect HDMI Cable from notebook and connect it to my PS3 it automaticly works just fine.
In past I have been connecting hp pavillon (windows vista) to the same tv, and I haven't got any problems. -
Satellite A660-1FM - Max. screen resolution of external monitor
Hi All,
This may be (probably) an easy questions to answer but I have a Satellite A660-1FM and want to use it with my Samsung Syncmaster (forgotten model) external screen. I grabbed an HDMI->DVI-D adapter, and all is well, but here is my question:
The toshiba specs page for my laptop (http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/product/Satellite-A660-1FM/1096013/toshibaShop/false/) shows an external resolution capability of:
Max Resolution : 2,048 x 1,536
Max Refresh Rate : 100 Hz
Non-interlaced resolution with max refresh rate : 1,920 x 1,200
But I get what I call standard HDMI resolution (not surprising I guess) when connected HDMI->DVI-D to my external monitor. I have previously run this monitor on my desktop at much high resolutions than 1080P, so the monitor is capable.
Just wondered what I'm missing here, or is it a case of the graphics card spec is higher than is possible to output from the laptop ?
Thanks for any help
AndyHi,
Thanks for the reply.
As to native resolution of the external monitor - unsure how to find this - but it was running a with a lot higher res when it was connected to my old desktop (which has died and been replaced by this laptop)
R/E the adapter - My Samsung Syncmaster monitor has a DVI-D cable sticking out the back of it, so I needed to connect that to my laptop - either vga-> DVI-D or HDMI-DVI-D to make use of it.
The external monitor is currently running at 1680 x 1050 using the laptop HDMI output -> HDMI-DVI-D adapater -> external monitor.
Before my desktop died, using the same external monitor I was running at 1680 x (guessing a bit here) 2048 ish (really sure I had a greater y res, this 1050 lark is really squishy).. in any case, the Y resolution was much much much better than 1050.
But, according to the specification for this laptop, it can output 2048 x 1536 to an external device (How, the HDMI and VGA outptu cannot go that high right ?)
So, I'm trying to figure out how to get the resolution on the laptop spec onto my external monitior, which has more than handled this resolution before my old gaming desktop died.
Thanks again for the reply - I hope this makes my question clearer.
Cheers
