Satellite Pro L300 PSLB1E - How to install the Value added package?

Hi there
I have tried updating the value added package on my machine I followed the instructions and removed my previous version and even cleaning the pc with ccleaner and running tune up utilites 2009 but every time i go to install the new value added package i get the same message remove previous version first in the add and remove programmes list.
I have removed this checked and double checked in add and remove and it is no where to be found but still no success installing the new software.
Can anyone help me resolve this matter?
Thanks

Have you restarted your notebook after removing VAP from the system?
I have updated VAP on several notebooks and have never noticed something like this.
After removing VAP from the system new version was always installed properly.
I can imagine something is still in registry.
You can check it and try to remove manually.
Search all entries for Toshiba Value and remove it.
If this will not work all you can do is to install OS again using recovery image. After clean installation remove VAP again, restart your notebook and install latest version.

  • Satellite Pro L300 1AD Can't install display driver on Windows XP

    I just installed XP on my Satellite pro because my internet modem doesnt work with Vista.
    I went on the main Toshiba website to install the display drivers but they wont install, it keeps bringing up the message "this driver is not for this computer please contact manufacturer".
    I dont understand why because all the other drivers I downloaded off the same page work, its just the display one. Does anyone know whats wrong?

    Have you downloaded the newest driver for Satellite Pro L300?
    On the Toshiba website its version 6.14.10.4953.
    Alternative you can try the drivers from Intel but normally the Toshiba driver should work.
    I always use the Toshiba driver and never had problems.
    By the way, I looked on this Toshiba website:

  • Satellite Pro C660-1JL - How to change the language of Windows 7?

    Hello,
    I bought Toshiba with preinstalled official Windows 7 Professional 64 service pack 1. And would like to change language from German to Russian.
    According to instructions from microsoft home page I could not get the result. MUI pack is not shown when searching for Windows up-dates (some other up-dates are only available, but not language pack)...
    What would you recommend how to solve this problem ?
    Its Satellite Pro C660-1JL

    Hey,
    > I bought Toshiba with preinstalled official Windows 7 Professional 64 service pack 1
    You cant change the language on Windows 7 Professional, this is only possible on Windows 7 Enterprise (volume license) and Windows 7 Ultimate.
    So if you want another language, buy Windows 7 Ultimate or be happy with current language of Windows 7 Professional. ;)

  • 8 questions from new owner of Satellite Pro L300

    Hello all forum users!
    I bought a new Toshiba laptop, the Satellite Pro L300, and have until 14 January to test it - if it looks like it isn't working properly I'll return it to the store where I purchased it.
    Here's a list of questions I have:
    1. Every time I turn on the laptop or it comes out of suspended or hibernation mode, and when I turn it off, the cd/dvd drive makes a loud mechanical clunky noise.
    It sounds to me like the carriage that carries the laser and optics is running into a mechanical stop.
    Is this normal?
    2. There is one hot subpixel on the display (blue) and according to the Toshiba info in the box, this is normal and is not cause for return.
    Should I be concerned about this?
    3. When I run the memory test at system boot, it states that it will start windows automatically at test termination, and show me the results of the test.
    It runs the test, starts Vista, but I don't see any results report.
    Where do I find this report?
    Is there a known problem with this test?
    4. The Toshiba utility program to perform diagnostics from within Vista does not work. Every time I run the test (PCdiag.exe) I get a Vista error message saying a fault was found in KERNEL32.dll.
    Where can I get a fix for this?
    I've already installed the updated files on Toshiba's web site for the 'Value Added Pack', which is where this utility is located, but still get the error message.
    5. I would like to access the bios settings at boot, but haven't found the way to do it yet.
    F2 gives me a menu for memory test or normal system boot.
    Esc doesn't get me into bios setup either.
    There is a Toshiba bios utility I can run from Vista, and from what I see any bios firmware upgrades are also to be done through Vista.
    Is there a way to access bios at boot?
    6. I would like to run XP on this system and understood that this model (Pro L300 PSLB1E) was XP compatible, and that I should be able to download all drivers from Toshiba to run on XP.
    Has anyone done this?
    7. The laptop installed and configured Vista basic when I did the first power on, but the license sticker on the bottom of the laptop has a product key for 'Vista Business OEMAct'. I was sold this laptop as having Vista Business with the option to downgrade to XP Pro. The box didn't come with any cds or dvds, and no manuals explaining how to install Vista Business.
    This is enough reason to return the laptop to the store where I bought it, which is a hassle I would prefer to avoid if I can install Vista Business.
    Can anyone help me understand what is happening here?
    8. Is there a way to contact technical support by email?
    Thanks in advance to anybody that can answer any of the above questions!

    > 1. Every time I turn on the laptop or it comes out of suspended or hibernation mode, and when I turn it off, the cd/dvd drive makes a loud mechanical clunky noise.
    My CD/DVD drives make similar noise too from time to time. Not always but sometimes. I think this appears because the drives laser lens calibrates in the right position.
    > 2. There is one hot subpixel on the display (blue) and according to the Toshiba info in the box, this is normal and is not cause for return.
    Well, you need an certain amount of dead pixels to get a screen replacement
    Please check this FAQ:
    http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB5400ZD0002R01.htm
    > 3. When I run the memory test at system boot, it states that it will start windows automatically at test termination, and show me the results of the test.
    There is no problem. I believe you mean the memory test while POST (power on self test). If there would be a memory fault then your notebook would not boot up properly.
    > 4. The Toshiba utility program to perform diagnostics from within Vista does not work. Every time I run the test (PCdiag.exe) I get a Vista error message saying a fault was found in KERNEL32.dll.
    Hmm the Value Added Package contains the PC diagnostic tool for Vista. I would recommend removing the old VAP and reinstalling the new downloaded from the page.
    > 5. I would like to access the bios settings at boot, but haven't found the way to do it yet. F2 gives me a menu for memory test or normal system boot. Esc doesn't get me into bios setup either. There is a Toshiba bios utility I can run from Vista, and from what I see any bios firmware upgrades are also to be done through Vista.
    The notebook seems to use the Phoenix BIOS and therefore pressing the F2 button should enable the BIOS. Press the F2 immediately after notebook has been powered up.
    > 6. I would like to run XP on this system and understood that this model (Pro L300 PSLB1E) was XP compatible, and that I should be able to download all drivers from Toshiba to run on XP.
    Such XP drivers are placed on the Toshiba European page.
    >7. The laptop installed and configured Vista basic when I did the first power on, but the license sticker on the bottom of the laptop has a product key for 'Vista Business OEMAct'. I was sold this laptop as having Vista Business with the option to downgrade to XP Pro. The box didn't come with any cds or dvds, and no manuals explaining how to install Vista Business.
    Never hear that this notebook would be delivered with Vista business As far as I know this series has been preinstalled with Vista Home Premium
    > 8. Is there a way to contact technical support by email?
    If you have some problems with your notebook you can contact your ASP in your country.

  • Satellite Pro L300 1AI LCD screen backlight not working

    Hi All,
    I have a Satellite Pro L300 1AI running Windows Vista the computer boots up and works fine but the backlight on the screen does not appear to be working.
    Are there any settings in Vista that can affect this (other than the Fn key command on the keyboard and the settings in Control Panel)? Strangely it only seems to have happened since i installed Skype but I can't see how that could possibly affect it.
    Any help is gratefully appriciated...

    Hi
    Whats wrong exactly? Is notebooks display brightness too low?
    Do you see everything on the screen like behind a thick fog?
    Well, usually the FL inverter controls the display backlight and if the FL inverter starts to malfunction then you would get the problem like this one.
    There is no other solution as to replace this FL inverter.
    Its a tiny part behind the display frame I think its a job for an ASP technician

  • Satellite Pro L300: x3100 and Intel 965 chipset graphics driver update

    Has anyone else installed the Intel 7.15.10.1666 driver, dated 26/02/2009 for the Mobile 965 chipset? Here's their web page for getting to the download:
    http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/intelgm965/
    For some reason unknown to me, Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 doesn't work with the Intel auto driver update (the download with the exe file). Therefore I followed their instructions for a manual install (the download with the zip file).
    My laptop is working just fine with this new driver, and there is a definite improvement in the transitions between images when using the Windows presentation option (slideshow).
    This new driver also installs 3 graphics programs from Intel:
    Hotkeys for display management
    System tray access
    TV wizard
    I used Windows Defender to remove these 3 from programs that automatically load at system startup to keep a fast boot time and not load unnecessary programs into memory. This hasn't caused me any problems.
    Why hasn't Toshiba added this to the driver downloads page?

    Hi
    Thanks for this info mate...
    > Why hasn't Toshiba added this to the driver downloads page?
    Who knows maybe it has not been checked, approved and tested by Toshiba?
    As far as I know every notebook manufacturers test and approve the drivers before they will be released on the driver pages
    Maybe it has not been approved...
    However, its good news that this driver is working properly.
    I will check it too on my notebook.
    Cheers

  • Satellite Pro L300 - Black screen flashing cursor

    Hi all,
    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 laptop running Vista.
    The client brought it in because when it boots it goes to Toshiba splash screen then goes to black screen with flashing cursor in left top corner. I have connected external monitor with same result. Swapped out RAM as well.
    Have run Memtest (passed), Seagate HDD long test (passed), Ultimate boot CD, and Winternals with no success.
    *F8 does not work* and nor does Factory recovery.
    Can get into BIOS F2 and F12 no problem and the HDD is listed there.
    I reinstalled Vista from CD and when rebooted it goes back to flashing cursor. I have attempted Startup repair from Vista CD and System restore. FixBoot from Command Prompt and FixMbr as well with the same result.
    I have a feeling it may be a corrupted CMOS? It is like the OS installs properly, but the computer loses it's memory on reboot of where the OS is located?
    Is the CMOS battery easily accessible and removable on this model?
    Has anyone encountered these symptoms? Is it fixable cheaply?

    Hello
    If you have clients I presume you are some technician and hope you have some hardware parts in your store.
    Have you tried to set BIOS to default settings and check it again?
    If possible try to exchange HDD and test the functionality again.
    Can you use notebook with Linux live CD (HDD not needed)?
    To be honest I dont think problem is BIOS and, in my opinion, CMOS battery exchange is not necessary.
    Test it please with new HDD and post some feedback.

  • Satellite Pro L300 BIOS update problem

    Hi
    I've an Satellite Pro L300 (PSLBHE).
    I downloaded the new bios file and started the upgrade. A window appeared and showed the old and new bios version (v1.70 -> v2.20). About in 1 min. my laptop screen turned to black but HDD green light flashed and didn't anything about 15 mins. After I pushed the power button and the laptop shutdown. Now if I push the power button nothing happen just blank (black) screen and the HDD flashing light.
    What's the problem? What can I do? Please help me.
    gjon

    Problem is that BIOS update is screwed up now. Obviously BIOS update was interrupted and now the BIOS chip is damaged.
    What you can do now?
    Unfortunately not much. What you need is professional help so I recommend you to contact nearest Toshiba service and ask for help. Sorry.

  • Help! How to get the Java Communication Package work in JDK1.3.1?

    I downloaded a Java Communications API Win32 ver 2.0 from java.sun.com, and try to use it to do some programming to communication ports with JDK1.3.1.
    I failed. When I tested with the samples (BlackBox, SimpleRead) coming with the javax.comm. It showed "no serial port found", something like that. I check the installation Instructions of the comm. package, it only described the installation under JDK1.1 and the pre-release version of JDK1.2. (and the installation of the same package in JDK1.1 and JDK1.2 are totally different.)I tried the specification with my JDK1.3, but it doesn't work.
    Who knows how to install the Javax.comm package in JDK1.3.1? Please let me know as soon as possible. Thanks a lot.

    This comes straight out of the FAQ that you got with your download:
    Q: My application does not find any ports when it enumerates available ports.
    Q: BlackBox gives me a message that says "No serial ports found!"
    A: In order for the Java communications API to find ports the file
    javax.comm.properties must be in the correct place. The preferred location
    is in <jdk>/lib. See the installation instructions for alternate locations
    and further information.
    Installation is very simple. Comm is a standard extension, so copy comm.jar to %JAVA_HOME%\jre\lib\ext
    This is all in the docs....

  • Toshiba Value Added Package fails to install - ID ERR NOTINSTALLTVALZ MESSAGE

    Hi there,

    Could someone please help me... I don't have any idea why it is doing this.

    There you can find the same case and the solution!!
    The issue was solved by BIOS update.
    But be careful; the BIOS update is risky. Be sure that you use the right BIOS and right update procedure!!!

  • How to install Windows XP in Satellite Pro L300-1A9?

    Hi!,
    first of all, sorry if I'm asking something really obvious, but I'm quite new with this issues...also sorry for my English, I'm not native.
    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 1A9 with Windows Vista preinstalled but the thing is I prefer Windows XP. I have tried to install it but it won't work.
    I have read lots of posts and comments about this issue in this forum and also in the web. The problem is I don't know if the procedure and the drivers to download are the same for all the L300 models. Mine is L300 1A9.
    Anyone could give me some extra simply instructions (I'm a beginner) about how to do solve this problem or any link relating this issue? I have seen many of them, but none about this model L300 1A9.
    Thank you very much!!

    Hi Lars_3,
    thank you very much for your reply and interest.
    When I say that installing Windows XP doesn't work, I mean that my laptop has Windows Vista but I have tried to reinitialized (format) it to install Windows XP, but when I run the Windows XP (original) disk an error message pops up and I can't continue the installation.
    I have had a look to the Toshiba's downloads link you posted, but there's no mention to the L series model. The options available are for M-Series and Net-Book series, so I wonder if it is possible to use one of them for my Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 1A9?
    Thank you very much for your kind help!

  • Satellite Pro L300 - Cannot install software for USB 3.0 Expresscard

    I am trying to install an AKE USB 3.0 expresscard to a Toshiba Pro L300 running Windows 7. The laptop recognises the expresscard but the software does not install correctly so the unit will not work.
    Have tried the NEC & Fresco drivers supplied with the unit and also tried other drivers for AKE downloaded fron internet but still no joy.
    Has anyone ever loaded in software for a USB3.0 expresscard successfully? Will the laptop take USB 3.0?
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    If the software doesnt install correctly try to contact card manufacturer and ask for help.

  • Satellite Pro L300/L300D series wont start properly

    Hi guys
    I got a Toshiba Satellite Pro L300/L300D series and basically one day the laptop just stopped working and whenever I turned it on I just got to this blank page saying press CTRL + ALT + DEL to restart the system. So I tried to reboot it pressing F12 and using a new copy of Vista Ultimate. However when I come to install Vista on the drive it states that there is no drive present on the system.
    Does anyone have any idea how I can overcome this problem, your help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    >What do I need to do and how can i create a partition if the computer wont start.
    Can you please explain this again? It sounds pretty illogic to me. If your computer wants start how you can try to install OS?
    Sorry my friend but now I am asking myself do we understand us correctly or I write about thing A and you write answer about something that I can define as thing B.
    Again:
    Start your notebook and press F12 to enter boot device options
    Put Vista installations DVD into optical disc drive
    Choose CD/DVD drive in the list and press ENTER
    Installations DVD will load (Windows is loading files...)
    Follow the menu on the screen
    When the stage with partitions is shown on the bottom right side (Drive options advanced)
    The additional menu on the bottom will be shown
    Delete all listed partitions/partition
    Use option NEW and create new one
    Try to install Vista on this new created partition.
    Can you do this or not?

  • Satellite Pro L300-EZ1004X - TouchPad stopped working, BIOS update does not help

    I have a Satellite Pro L300-EZ1004X laptop. Few days ago TouchPad stopped working. This is not a Fn + F9 issue.
    In Device Manager it looks like hidden device and has (!) on it. Re-installing Synaptics drivers, updating them, removing the device in Safe Mode - nothing works. (TouchPad did not work in Safe Mode). One of the forums mentioned BIOS update. For some strange reason the latest BIOS for this specific laptop is from 2008 (ver. 1.5). Other L300 laptops have option to update BIOS to ver. 2.20 (2010) but not mine! I tried to load it (ver. 2.20)from Windows and from boot disk without success. I installed BIOS ver. 1.5. After reboot - keyboard stop working! And TouchPad ... still dead and still appears as hidden device. Using external mouse I restarted the laptop and get into the BIOS settings. In Advanced Settings disabled TouchPad completely. KEYBOARD START WORKING IN WINDOWS!!!
    Any suggestions on how to make this TouchPad to work? Or how to get newer BIOS for this Laptop?
    Thank you in advance!

    Sounds like it has died, you can purchase a new one from a parts supplier and pay someone to install it or if you are any good with such things you can try to do it yourself.  I suggest just sticking with the external mouse.
