Satellite P300-19P won't display 1,440 x 900 in Win7 64bit.

Does anyone know why my Satellite P300-19P won't display 1,440 x 900 in win7 64bit.
It's highest display is 1360 x 768 which leaves a gap of about 1/2 inch at the top and bottom of my screen.
I had full res on XP but not on Win 7.
The drivers are up to date.
Anybody know why?

Im not quite sure about the difference between Vista and Win 7 ATI catalyst but it could be possible that some options are not present in different Catalyst options.
However, the available display resolution depends on the graphic driver.
I think the gap at the bottom and top o the screen appears due to 1360 x 768 resolution.
Its to small because the native resolution of this 17 TFT is 1440 x 900.
What happens if you would not install the ATI driver but would use the common Win 7 graphic card driver?
I installed Win 7 on my notebook and I didnt install graphic card driver because graphic chip was recognized automatically and all resolutions were available.
Check this.

  • Satellite P300-19P not able to capture audio using Chicony Cam software

    Hey,
    I recently upgraded to windows 7 from vista and since then i have not been able to capture audio with the camera assistant software.
    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, repairing the program, changing the audio settings, running in compatibility mode, i have practically exhausted everything i can think of.
    Can anybody help at all?

    (if any other info is required then please ask me)

    Hi
    You mean you are not able to record the audio using the internal microphone.
    Is it right?
    In your case I would recommend checking the audio device settings inside the camsoftware.
    In settings -> audio tab (last tab) you will find the necessary settings.
    The audio device field should contain the microphone (2 Realtek high definition device) and the audio volume option should be set to max (to right).

  • Satellite P300-19P: CD/DVD drive tries to read the disk then ejects

    Hi,
    I hope someone can help,
    I have a *Satellite P300-19P*.
    I have had this notebook 3 months and this is the latest frustrating problem; every now and again when I insert a DVD or CD and close the drawer the drive tries to read the disk and then ejects the disk, even if I take the disk out and shut the drive the drawer still ejects,
    If I shut the system down and reboot the problem still exists.
    I have checked the drivers which are up to date and the OS is Windows Vista home premium 32bit.
    This is the fourth time this has happened and the problem seems to correct it's self and reappears as and when!!
    Has anyone had this problem or can anyone help as this is driving me mad.

    Hi!
    I think thats a problem with the CD/DVD drive.
    In your case I would go to an ASP (authorized service provider). They should check your notebook and change the drive if it is necessary.
    Here you can search for an ASP:

    Hello
    You can set a notification sound in the control panel => sounds and audio devices => Windows sounds.

  • Satellite P300-13M won't start at all

    Hello everybody,
    my Satellite P300 - 13M with product number PSPC4E won't start at all!
    When I put down my screen, it automatically goes in hibernation mode. But the last time I did this was just too much apparently.. I've ejected my battery and put the adapter in to see if it would start. Negative. I've put the battery back and ejected the adapter. Negative. I've connected both the battery and adapter. Negative, no result at all.
    Does this mean the end of my laptop?
    Please help me as fast you guys can because this is my only working laptop.
    Many thanks
    Ps if you want specifications, then i cannot give you them. I don't know the specs by heart.

    On this virtual way it is not easy to say what is wrong there but if there is no reaction at all Im afraid mainboard is death.
    In my opinion repair is probably not the solution. New motherboard costs a lot of money. Either you can find used one, maybe refurbished and exchange it or sell notebook on eBay and buy new one.

  • Satellite P300-19P - How to change from NTSC to PAL?

    Everytime I want to display on my TV I have to change the TV from PAL to NTSC as I can't find how to change the S-Video output on the laptop from NTSC to PAL.
    Does anyone know how to?
    Cheers.

    Hey,
    Im not owner of Satellite P300 but either you can change this option in BIOS or in display driver. Normally there you have an option to change between PAL and NTSC on S-Video output.

  • Satellite P300-19P: Media Control buttons need to be pressed many times

    Hi all, I'm a newbie to this forum, but I do love my Toshiba products!
    I recently got a P300 19P and the touch sensitive media buttons at the top (mute, open media player, play/pause, stop, previous, next) buttons DO work, but only when i tap them something like 20 to 30 times repeatedly. Sometimes they work in just 5 or 6 taps, sometimes, it takes more like 50. What is going on here?
    I would have thought it was something to do with windows media player having a lot of songs (only about a thousand to be honest), but that wouldn't explain the mute buttong being irresponsive.
    (Windows Vista 32 bit home premium)
    The LEDs all work fine though.... :-(

    I will do that just now. Although at first, the first button on the far left was for muting the sound.
    When the buttons were fully functional when I first bought it, it was a mute button. It has suddenly changed its function now. Is there any way of configuring the function of those buttons?
    And I do touch them gently.
    I just went into C:\Toshiba\Drivers\ValueAddedPackage and opened a file called ButtonSetting. I found this. (Note, I have not edited the text at all, and will not do so either unless advised otherwise).

  • Satellite P300 19P - CD/DVD Burning Issue

    Hi, I am new to the forum and hope that somone will be able to help.
    I am having problems burning DVD's. When I use burning software the image is usually copied ok and then the burning process starts, which usually lasts a couple of moments and then the machine spits out the disc part burnt and wasted.
    I usually use Corel DVD Copy 6, but have tried the TOSHIBA programmes and others such as NERO. Using Corel VideoStudio, this burns discs with a 90% sucess rate, but the problem comes when trying to copy my own created discs.
    I have tried different Disc types (ie +R and -R), and I have tried burning speeds too.
    Has anbody else suffered this problem?
    I have managed to find an error code 06077-26-2A040902 , does this mean anyhting to anyone?
    The TEMPRO Alerts seem to have provided firmware updates for a number of other DVD drives, but not the one in my machine? Perhpas it is due one? All the drivers are up to date.
    Thanks for listening and anybodies help is more than welcome.
    Cheers.

    Hi, sorry it has taken so long to post a reply again - many apologies.
    Thanks for you suggestion, which I have completed and tried. Although, this did help and I have managed to copy some discs with limited sucsess I am still having problems. I also made sure that the filters are still removed as mentioned.
    I use Corel VideoStudio to create my discs, which seems to work fine. The initial burn is successful and will play in any DVD machine perfectly. Since this issue I have given up using Corel DVD Copy6 and reverted to using the Toshiba DVD Backup tool, but this only allows a single disc copy (can't produce multiple copies). This works with a very low success rate.
    I have so far:
    - Made sure lense and discs are clean.
    - Tried different media (+R and -R)
    - I use good quality discs.
    - Tried the filter removing as mentioned.
    Is there any other suggestions as to what I can do to resolve this issue?
    Many thanks for your continued help.

  • 2 Beeps on Startup and blank screen - Satellite P300-19P

    Hi guys,
    I installed an express card yesterday and it's caused all sorts of havoc (IRQ conflicts, hangs etc).
    I went to restart this morning and it's now just giving me 2 beeps and nothing on screen. I've looked up the phoenix bios bleep codes but this one aint listed. Any ideas if I can do a BIOS reset with a jumper?
    Obviously I've tried removing the express card!
    Any help would be fantastic
    Thanks
    Owen

    Hi buddy,
    > Any idea what the beeps mean?
    Only an authorized service provider can say for sure what this beep code means
    > I'm not fused about an authorised provider as it's out of warranty.
    Why is it a problem if your notebook is out of warranty? Who says that a repair would be expensive? Maybe its a simple thing that would cost only few Euros.
    According to a popular saying: You can lead a horse to water but you cant make him / it drink ;)

  • Satellite P300 - blank screen since turned on, but sometimes working fine

    Helo,
    I have a Toshiba Satellite P300-1F0.
    The display is blank when I turn it on, even on the boot up screen, and I cant hear the startup windows sounds.
    Although if I turn it on and off, it will work after some tries, sometimes it works on the first try, some others I have to turn it on and off like 20 times before he finaly starts working. When it turns on it works perfectly.
    I tried:
    pressing the power button for 1 min while charger and battery out,
    Checking manually the ram.
    reinstalling and updating monitor and graphics card drivers.
    shaking the lid to check if there is a cable broken
    but none of these actions worked
    I also noticed that the computer works with a external monitor (TV) connected via hdmi.
    If i turn the laptop on, the screen is blank, and no windows sounds played, and after some minutes I plug in the hdmi cable, the Tv shows that windows was on, and sounds start to work from there.
    While connected to the TV, I try to turn the display on by pressing (windws key+P) but it doesnt work.
    In Screen resolution menu, windows cant detect the display, only the TV
    Can anyone help me? what can be thr source of the problem?
    Any soluction?

  • Satellite P300: Display Driver has stopped working using external monitor

    I have a number of these Satellite P300 PSPCCA-OC201Y and recently bought external monitors for them.
    Since then we seem to be getting "Display Driver has stopped working and has recovered" messages, then after about 5 of these, it crashes.
    Starting with one machine, I have updated display drivers, bios was current, all to no avail.
    I then did a complete system restore back to original. Has not solved the problem.
    Any ideas?

    hi Keven Dickenson,
    as you said you restored the system and still there is no way to get things work it may be a hardware issue...
    i my opinion you should consult a servicepartner to check this out...
    is there any of the machines working with the external monitor at all?
    if none of them is able to connect to ext. display maybe your installation has a problem or the monitor is faulty...
    try it with another monitor and recover one system to factory installation....

  • Satellite P300 keeps crashing and giving me blue screens

    Hello,
    I got a Satellite P300, operating on Windows Vista home premium and its provided with a ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650.
    My laptop keeps crashing and giving me blue screens and windows says its the cause ls my graphic driver and the eror message is Atikmdag.
    I tried everything (i think), i re-installes windows but this i had to do with making a recovery cd with the current settings because in some kinda way my F8 function doesn't work so i couldn't restore my Windows from my hard drive.
    I also got the latest Ati drivers, this doesn't help either, i also re-installed them and tried to run my laptop on the windows drivers, this doesn't help either.
    I really don't know what to do, can some one help me please?

    Are you sure that you are running video drivers downloaded from a Toshiba site? Unfortunately the drivers may not be the root of the problem so it is important to eliminate them as the cause. AMD's recommended driver removal procedure is at [http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/GPU57RemoveOldGraphicsDrivers.aspx] and if you follow that with an installation of Toshiba drivers then your laptop should be in an as supplied state
    I'd recommend you look at this [How to troubleshoot Display driver stopped responding and has recovered, ATIKMDAG.sys type errors|http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/737-27116RadeonSeries-ATIKMDAGhasstoppedrespondingerrormessages.aspx]

  • Satellite P300 with screen turning pink

    Hi
    My Satellite P300 is model PSPCCA-OC6O1Y. The problem I have is a lot of pink on the screen. This has been reoccuring over the last week with this morning the worst. Presently I have two distinct pink pencil lines running down the screen just right of middle, and I also have many other random pink pixles jumping all over the place.
    Earlier today what would normally be white on the screen is pink and moving which made it almost impossible to see the screen and use the machine. A shut down and restart has bought it back to a useable position, although the problem has not gone away. On restart no sign of pink on the screen during the normal bootup - no sign of pink on the log in page and pink started as soon as either the browser or email apps were activated. It does go across all programs - I cannot isolate it to any one program, so I suspect it is not a program specific issue.
    I am not a techie, just a user, so if the reply can be in simple to understand language that would be appreciated. The machine is under warranty, however I am trying to avoid downtime for repair which is critical if possible.
    Thanks for your help

    Hi Fletch,
    Did you connect an external monitor to your notebook? With this external device you can identify the reason of this issue. That means if the external monitor works properly, it seems to be related to the internal display that must be changed.
    As Jeka-IL wrote, contact nearest authorized service provider in your country. The guys will try to help you and if your notebook is under warranty, the repair is for free.
