Satellite M70-190 - problem with USB

Hi!
After uninstall Windows XP and BIOS update, i have a problem with USB ports. My USB flash drive does't work. Windows find it as USB flash drive, but i can't find it in "My computer"
So have anyone idea about this problem?
PS External HDD works perfect, as USB mouse, and USB WiMax modem.
Im hoping someone out there can help with this problem.

Is described issue the same on all USB ports?
I mean, I have Satellite M70-159 in front of me and since long time I use 8GB SanDisc and 2GB Toshiba USB stick and both devices are recognized properly.
I still use original Toshiba WXP installation (updated of course).

Problem with usb boot on Satellite A-50

Hi,
I've had a problem with usb boot. When I'm inserting a usb, I can't boot my computer from usb. I've selected the option boot from a disk, but doesn't runs. I have a "Satellite A-50-522". Do I need to update bios?
Greetings,

Hello,
you sould try to press F12 when the Toshiba screen appears! Then a small boot menu is shown. Choose USB-FDD and then it should work.

Satellite M30X: Problems with USB 2.0 external HDD

Hi,
I have a Toshiba Satellite M30X. I recently bought myself a 200GB External Hard Disc. It has its own Power supply. If I connect it with USB 2.0 to my Laptop it happens to diconnect and reconnect permanantly. Sometimes it works, then I can put Data on the Disc. Then again it diconnects and reconnects many times. I've already tried another USB Port, but there is no difference. It's very strange, because I connected the External Hard Disc to many other Computers (Laptop and Tower) and it ALWAYS works!!! Its only with my Laptop it disconnects and reconnects the whole time. As I said, not always. Sometimes it works for like an half an hour or so then the action starts again ...
Can somebody help???

Hi Andrea
I really dont know why this happen. A friend of mine has the same problem with his desktop. While copy process runs the HDD is suddenly disconnected and there is also acoustic sound when the hardware is removed.
I have connected his HDD on my Tecra and there is no problem. I really dont know what the problem can be. Maybe there is some problem with OS because I can not believe that there is some contact problem with USB ports.
If you use many different USB devices at the same time maybe there is some conflict between few different drivers. Sorry but it is not easy to give some precise explanation.

K7N2 deltas mainboards have a problem with usb devices ??

Ok here is my problem..
I had installed WinXP Pro with SP1..
I got a 20 GB USB2.0 disk.i connected it on the both front or rear usb ports.
When i tried to transfer files to my usb disk or to my PC, in the middle of the copying, i got "Write Delay Failed" error and lost my usb connection..
I had to plug it out and in again..
Now, i have an DSL modem..Last night, i was disconnected from internet and my modem's lights gone..I plug it again, no lights..restarted my PC, also completely shutdown Windows XP..Again no lights..
Then, formatted PC and installed windows 2000 Pr and SP4, until now, my modem worked fine..But USB 2.0 ports are still no use for my usb disk...
In bios , it's enabled as USB 1.1+2.0..
I think this K7N2 deltas have a problem with usb 2.0 devices and Win XP Pro..
Some guys talking about, removing 9th wire earth, but couldn't understand which wire from where ? From mainboard or from usd device's cable ?
Those cables are fabricated, i think it's impossible ?
My processor is Athlon 2500+, ram Twinmos 512 DDR 400
Thanks for reply

I'm also having this problem. It's happening with my USB flash disk. I was almost buying another one when I tried it with Windows Vista on the same machine and it worked ok, then I tried Arch Linux (with kernel 2.6.30.5) on another machine and got the same error. After that I tried Ubuntu and it worked ok. Seems that Arch's kernel doesn't like my USB flash disk.

MSI K8N Diamond - Boot problems with USB devices attached.

Hi There.
I have been seeking the forums, but havent found the answer to my problem yet.
This is how it goes with ANY USB devices attached to either of the four USB ports on the Motherboard.
When i turn on my system, it hangs in the POST right after displaying the BIOS version (Which I have updated to 1.6) - I cant use my Keyboard to get to the BIOS setup.
Without USB devices attached...
The system boots without problems. And in Windows XP SP2 i can insert my keyboard, mouse etc. and everything works great - both USB 1.1 & 2.0 devices.
I have disabled the KB/USB.. in BIOS and I have disabled the "Boot on other device" option as well.
As I have found on this forum, a lot of people have problems with USB Front panel and D-Bracket (USB ports) connectors causing the system to hang - But my D-Bracket (USB connectors) and my front USB port is at this time DISCONNECTED - so this cannot be the problem.
The D-Bracket shows the "Bios Sign On" information - and stops at that point
Am I having a malfunctioning Motherboard here, or are there any solutions to this problem?
Please help me as I am desperate to have my system work properly.
Regards
Stieper

Well I have read about that somewhere in here, but my problem is NOT with an USB hub, but with any USB device attached to the motherboard's USB slots. It is driving me nuts to be honest!! I think it might be time for RMA
What do you say guys - is my Motherboard ready for RMA, or do I have to try something specific berfore sending it to the retailer??

Satellite A200 - need help with USB boot

Hi to all,
I have a startup problem with my Satellite A200.
I am booting from my USB key. It is bootable Linux to install the tutorial is this:
Insert the USB key or drive you want to boot from.
Restart the computer.
During startup, when prompted, press the appropriate button to display the "Boot Options". Usually it is F2, F8 or F12 (be displayed on the splash screen).
In the boot menu, select the drive to boot from.
The computer will now boot from the USB key or the first disc to change the boot priority back to boot from the hard drive. Perform the procedure again, but to choose the hard drive in step 4 the computer will now boot from the first hard disk.
My problem just part shift to the right that when it restarts with the USB key plugged remain frozen and Toshiba screen is displayed but it does not load anything.
F2 I want to access the BIOS it makes me please wait but nothing happen. I'm nothing like 1hr wait for F12 boot selections except that all boot are marked exceptions to the FDD one on which I want to boot.
So I find myself facing an impasse because for Toshiba loads must be connected to nothing which is silly because I want to boot on my key.
If someone has a solution...

I check everything has nothing to report ...
everything that was to change on this pc is memory ram replace a 2gb because before that I had 256mb ram memory so not much ^ ^
yes he in the bios (f2) I fdd but by regarding the boot menu (f12) I unfortunately do not have fdd :/
missing entry fdd me in the start menu :/ there no means a small file download is placed on the hard disk to show the "fdd" entry?
Here is my menu (f12):
internal hard disk
CD-ROM
LAN
I even tried to run as my key with each entry in cases where but after a few seconds it gives me windows vista: (
my pc probably lack a forgotten entry in the factory or whatever ^ ^
if someone has a solution ^ ^
thank you

Satellite C855D-S5302 problem with win8

I recently bought new Satellite C855D-S5302 after retiring my 12 year old Satellite after excellent service. BUT this new one comes with Windows 8 installed and that is just not cutting it for me.
Often when moving the cursor to the left, the charms screen pops up and the cursor goes nowhere until I click elsewhere. It has frozen several times so I had to restart by holding the power button down, and it doesn´t work as well with my Motorola Razr smartphone as the old XP did. I believe MS are trying to copy the Android OS but they do it terribly. Anyway, I have been searching for a way to downgrade my NEW computer to Windows 7 or something else, but haven´t found a way to do that. And according to Toshiba homepage, this model hasn´t been qualified to run Win8. So what should I do? Return the computer to the supplier? And tell everyone not to buy Toshiba? I´d rather not but I am running out of options.
Is there an Operating system available from Android for this computer?
Please help me.
Oskar

Windows 8 freeze and has software compatibility issues..... on c855d family machines. I have two of them both freeze lock up bought them at Walmart... Downgraded to Windows 7 pro had 5 devices having problems but after Microsoft update ran three long running updates some of them self resolved except for two of them SM bus controller and USB controller... To my confusion the driver seem to have loaded under device manager or installed default or generic drive for that device..... What need is drivers for those devices...Please help
PS.. I AM not impressed with Windows 8 and dont like it hope window 9 is better

I bought same model end of Nov. You only have 14 days to return a Toshiba laptop for an exchange; after that, you have to send to them for repair. The hard drive died on mine after 4 weeks and it is now in Nashville for repair; not costing anything but is a pain. At least I have a win7 Toshiba as backup. I had no problems with the system--think win8 is fine; just takes getting used to.

Satellite L670-153: problem with a 4Gb SONY mass storage

I have a satellite L670-153 laptop with Windows 7 64 bit. When I conect a 4Gb SONY USB mass storage, Windows mount the USB mass storage. But after some minutes, the USB mass storage is unmount and mount and unmount indefinitely.
I update the bios and the chipset driver but I still have the problem.

And what now?
Can you test functionality with other 4GB USB stick? Just to see if other brands will be recognized properly. Does the problem persist when you use it on other PC with the same operating system?
I have 2 SanDisk and 1 Toshiba USB stick and all of them are recognized properly on different notebooks?

Satellite P100-202: problems with screen again

Hello everyone! I'm posting about a problem with my Toshiba P100-202's screen. I recently posted in the thread "Satellite P100-202: screen will freeze" and my current problem is actually quite similar to what is explained in the thread "Satellite P100-119: display doesn't work anymore". Here's my story, hoping that someone will be able to help me avoid having to send the computer to a technician:
After my previous problem I decided to get my screen replaced. Everything seemed fine, apart from on occaisonal instances, especially when I was using the program "Internet Explorer", in which the screen would sort of restart, ie. everything went black for a few seconds (music etc. however would continue) and then (boom) everything would reappear, sometimes in ultra-zoom for a second or two. The computer (operating system=Windows 7) would report "problem with NVIDIA graphics driver", and then operations would continue normally. This happened several times, although not frequently, and I wasn't too worried about it. And then, a few days ago, I was using the newest release candidate of Internet Explorer 9, and the screen blacked out, and my music continued, and I thought "OK, no problem", and then a few seconds passed, and then the music stopped (and I was thinking "uh-oh"), and then... the blue screen of death.
OK, no panic, restart, but of course there's no welcome note, no nothing, just a blank screen which with the backlights still working created an ominous greyish hue. And then suddenly the mouse appeared, followed by the entire display, so I unwisely dismissed the incident. Ten minutes later, same thing, and this time not even the blue screen of death as consolement, just the grey nothingness.
A few days of rest, a quick dusting of the battery compartment, but no, even though I believe the operating system is working fine (caps lock light works and little hums and whirrs occur as usual), there is no question about the fact that the screen does not work.
PS. Sorry if my post is too long and no, I do not have access to an external display!!
While I'm at it, is anyone able to explain why a 25-minute lasting battery can take hours or even days to charge?

Thanks for your super-fast reply, as***! Unfortunately I fell asleep just before you posted. Anyway, indeed I was not expecting a manual fix to be available, so I'll see if I can find the installation disk in my ocean of cd-roms, and if that doesn't work I'll call up on a mechanic, see what they say (nowadays the most common answer is "rien faire", however I have a half-friend in the job who might be able to elaborate further), and in the event, give up on this one and go and buy a brand new and - as they now all are - webcam equipped laptop or netbook as you call them (and preferably not a Toshiba, either, unless you can convince me that 1. The battery no longer lasts a mere third-of-an-hour after three years of usage and 2. The screens are built to last a good ten years). After all, I've always been unlucky with electronics. The problem is however, how will I get all my files moved, knowing that the best form of back-up I have is a long-lost USB key?
PS. Keep me updated if you get any more information on a possible immediate cure!

Satellite P50-A09M - problems reading USB flash memory sticks

Getting USB sticks as showing up as a empty drive, if you click on it the File Explorer locks up. A reboot fixed it but their are other problems.
I did a System backup on 3 DVD's and seems to run OK, but I thought may be to try a USB2 stick.
Toshiba Brand no good just locked up the Stick had to use the USB stick format utile on my Main W7/32 PC to recover it.
I even tried again with a Sandisk USB3 stick, did the same corrupted the stick having constant problem on reading from USB ports. I tried a 1TB hard drive just locked up the File Explorer, but a reboot was OK..
So have since did a system recovery and then a System backup the USB sticks works no errors, but no software has been loaded..
This is a 5 day old Satellite P50-A09M
I am trying it again with all the Windows updates..

USB Sticks these are 3 good brands
One a Toshiba, the USB 3 Hard drive is a USB 3 Powered Model Imation Apollo M100 Portable Hard Drive
These USB sticks did not show correctly no Size and clicking on the USB Drive, caused the Laptop to lockup, a reboot fixed that problem and the same with the USB3 hard drive.
When I tried to do a system backup it scrambled 2 USB sticks, after a system recovery it worked ok on the same 2 USB sticks.
On my Home made PC yes I am a retired Computer Eng, the 2 scrambled sticks would not format they showed up as being unformatted, I had to use the HP USB format utile to format them.
This PC is about 2 years old running Windows pro 7/32
The Laptop is still have a bit of a problem with a 8GB Lexar USB2 stick the activity Led was flashing all the time seems like the USB port was seeing the stick as being in then out, plugged it in the USB3 port and it was OK.
Been using these USB sticks to transfer data from the Main PC to the laptop.
Sorry for the delay in replying but we have big problems in logging on here in NZ and not just me, I set myself as a new user and it logged me on as my old user, do you have any clues on getting around this as a mate has the same problem.
Thanks.

Problems with USB port and song transferring;

Hi! I just got an iPod and I am having problems with it. My computer doesn't have a Hi-Speed USB port, even if it's 9 months old. Some of my friends don't have it either but they still are able to transfer songs onto their iPod. For mine, it keeps saying "Do Not Disconnect." I waited for 5 hours last time I got it and it still isn't working.
I also updated my iPod software today and the iPod icon isn't appearing on the bar to the left in iTunes. I'd really appreciate any help on this! As well as if I really need to do something about the ports or if it could function like this normally.

Lenovo 3000 n200 problem with usb tv-stick

hi guys,
i have a problem with my lenovo 3000 and the hvr-900 usb tv-stick from hauppauge. driver installation and software installation from wintv is no problem. finding the channels ist also no problem. sound is good but i have no pictures... the display ist black.
my grafik chip is the intel GMA X3100 onboard. i thought it was a problem with the overlay function. the wintv software shows me "surface vmr" on my old desktop with the old wintv pci card it shows me "surface overlay".
internet tv (tvu, tv ants...) works without any difficulties. but i can`t find a function to activate "overlay".
has anyone an idea? thanks for helping.

i try an older usb machine from hauppauge which supports analog only (the new stick supports analog/digital) and... it works... the wintv software shows me "surface overlay"... crazy...
now i use this until i find a solution for the stick ;-)
thanks for helping
