Satellite Pro P300 - Fn+f5 combination doesn't change the monitor

On two P300 laptops, we have a problem that the fn+f5 combination doesn't change the monitor layout.
If you press fn+f5 you see the bar where the different modes are displayed, but if you release the layout stays the same (laptop as single monitor)
Thanks, kind regards,
Davy

Hi
In my opinion the previous action (installation of catalyst hotkeys and reinstalled the hotkey driver) is the reason why the FN + F5 does not work properly.
In my opinion you should clean the registry firstly.
Use CCleaner tool. Its free and cleans the registry.
Furthermore you should remove the catalyst hotkeys because this can affect the Toshiba FN Hotkey functionality.
Finally install the Toshiba drivers from the Toshiba page
In More info (at the right on the Toshiba driver page) you can find all details about the single tools and drivers and what are they for...

  • Satellite Pro P300 - HDMI output port doesn't fit

    Hello All,
    Well this is starting to drive me to distraction and Im hoping theres someone who can put me out my missery lol.
    I have been trying to hook my laptop (toshiba satellite pro p300) up to my LCD TV via the same HDMI cable I use for my PS3 but the connector just wont fit. I keep finding all these posts in various forums saying how they cant get sound out the HDMI connection...that would be great, as at least that means they have them connected.
    Are there different connections for HDMI? The one I have is diagonal connector but the port on the laptop is more square, and just doesnt fit. So if there isnt a connector, does that mean I have a funky port, on the laptop.
    There is also the matter of connection my laptop to my amp that controls the surround sound system. What connection is best to use, as there is no real audio out connections?
    Cheers

    Hi
    Can you please tell us what Satellite Pro P300 you have exactly? I mean the exact model number.
    Maybe you can also post a picture of the HDMI port. Normally there are no different HDMI ports, all have the same physical dimension.
    Im not PS3 owner but maybe it has a special connector. Have you tried another cable?
    Regarding the audio connection I use the normal line out port for my external speakers. Did you test this?

  • Recovery CD for XP in combination with dual HDD on Satellite Pro P300

    On my Satellite Pro P300 there are two harddisks, both 160 GB.
    At the moment Windows Vista Business is installed, as it was preinstalled.
    On the first disk there are 3 partitions, one EISA-partition, one Vista boot-partition and one partition for HHDRecovery (contains image for Vista Product Recovery).
    In Vista there is an option for Complete PC Backup. This provides the possibility to completely restore Vista to the situation at the time of the backup.
    I made a Full PC Backup of the complete first hard drive (3 partitions) and saved it on the second harddrive.
    Now I want to use the provided Toshiba Product Recovery for Windows XP to install Windows XP on the laptop.
    I assume that the first harddrive will be completely overwritten, but I am not sure if the second drive will also be overwritten.
    Does anybody know if my data on the second drive will be lost when i use the Product Recovery for XP?
    I would like to preserve the data on the second drive, because it gives me the option to restore the laptop to the situation with Vista without reinstalling/activating all applications.
    Also all my personal files are on that drive.

    Normally it would be no problem to temporarily remove the second harddisk.
    But I am not sure if my warranty will be void after that; the machine is only a few weeks old.
    If the warranty is still valid after removing and reinstalling the second harddisk, I will try that option.
    I just wonder if anybody knows for a fact that it does not write the second harddisk.
    As you said, I also assume that it will not write the second harddisk, but I just want to be sure.

  • Satellite Pro P300-26U - Can I use a second HDD?

    Satellite P300 family support raid0 and double HDD. All model? User manual of 26U don't say any word about this. Model like P300-1BP has double HDD.
    Can someone help me? I want to buy a P300-26U in Italy.
    Thanks.
    Guido

    Hi
    The Satellite P300 series doesnt support RAID!
    There is NO RAID controller on the motherboard.
    But you are right; the Satellite Pro P300-BP supports 2 HDDs but this does not meant that it would support RAID!
    Furthermore you should know that P300 series supports different hardware specifications.
    This means that not all P300 would be able to use 2 HDDs!!!
    It could be possible that Satellite Pro P300-26U is not able to use 2 HDDs even though the Satellite Pro P300-BP support 2 HDDs.

  • Satellite Pro P300 has just died on me

    Hi,
    Yesterday my Satellite Pro P300 (PSPC1E) simply died on me...no battery charging lights nothing. Nothing happens when I press the ON button it is DEAD.
    The battery was ok last time used, the adapter is still giving me nearly 20volts.
    I took the laptop apart to check the DC in connector, thats ok.
    I assume after some research its a motherboard fault. Typically my warranty ran out 2 months ago!!
    Cost of a new replacement motherboard so far quoted is 180, not too eager to spend that as I have a tax bill to pay at the end of this month!
    Any ideas to what the problem could be?
    I have found a mobo on eBay which is a p300-1a8 going for a song but would that be compatible?
    What are all the variations in the motherboards?
    Would any other motherboard be compatible?
    Any ideas, suggestions would be much appreciated and I thank anyone in advance for any ideas.
    Cheers
    Steve

    Yes and no.
    You can also imagine that different P300 notebooks have also different ports. Some of them have HDMI some probably not. There is also the difference.
    Different ports, different processor or different graphic card. Maybe some models don't have even webcam and missing controller on motherboard.
    So, if you want to have identical hardware configuration please be sure you use motherboard with the same model number.

  • Satellite Pro P300-1CG wakes up from sleep mode when unplug USB mouse

    I often transport my laptop from one working place to another.
    Usually put it into sleep mode, unplug the USB mouse and lay in the bag.
    However every time I unplug the USB mouse - the laptop wakes up and I have to put it into sleep again.
    This is annoying. Is there any way to set up laptop _not_ to wake up on USB activity?
    I didn't find any option in power settings of Vista, neither in BIOS.
    My BIOS is up to date (just updated, but didn't help).
    I use Windows Vista Business on Toshiba Satellite Pro P300-1CG.

    Hi
    > Usually put it into sleep mode, unplug the USB mouse and lay in the bag.
    Why you dont unplug the USB mouse firstly and then put the notebook into the sleep mode?
    This would solve your issue ;)
    From my knowledge the BIOS provides only the options: Wake-up on keyboard and Wake up on LAN.
    There are no options for Wake up on USB and therefore such settings cannot be changed...
    Cheers

  • Satellite Pro P300 - unable to activate the inbuilt microphone

    I purchased a Satellite Pro P300 some 2 months ago and to date all is well.
    It has a webcam which I really thought I would not have any use for it but now find that I have.
    The camera works fine but I am unable to activate the inbuilt microphone.
    Can someone point me in the right direction please

    Hi
    You have to start the webcam software if you want to use the internal mic too.
    The point is that the internal microphone is connected with the internal webcam and the webcam software controls the both devices.
    Please check also if the internal mic was enabled in the webcamsoftware correctly
    Furthermore I would recommend updating the sound driver.
    Best regards

  • Satellite Pro P300 (PSPC5E) - Webcam driver open fail on Windows 7

    I've installed the RC of Windows 7 64 Bit on my Satellite Pro P300-PSPC5E and I'm experiencing problems with the configuration of my webcam and microphone.
    I've tried to install the camera assistant software, 64-bit (windows vista) to configure the webcam but I keep getting an error with 'Webcam driver open fail. Please restart camera or computer.' neither of a camera or computer restart work. I do get picture in Skype but I can not edit settings or so (dark picture) and the microphone is way more silent then it was on windows XP, although it's set on the maximum sound.
    Is there a solution for this problem? I hope so :)

    Hi
    I think there is no solution for this problem at the moment because you are using a Release Candidate of Windows 7 and at the moment there are no official drivers for Windows 7 available.
    You have already tried the Windows Vista driver so thats all what you can do. Alternative you visit the Toshiba US page (http://www.csd.toshiba.com) and search for Windows 7 beta driver. Maybe it works.
    Good luck! :)

  • Satellite Pro P300 - How to obtain the factory image without media?

    Hello
    I have been given a Satellite Pro P300 and it has the recovery disc for win xp, I would like to go back to the pre installed Vista intallation if possible.
    The recover partition on the hard drive isnt available so i assume it cant be recovered. Is it possible to purchase a factory image?

    Liam is right Win 7 is better than Vista OS.
    So if you have a possibility to install Win 7 I recommend doing this instead of Vista.
    However, the Toshiba recovery disk contain just Vista OS.

    Apple can fix any and all of their computers.  Whether it would be charged to you would be the question.   Do you have AppleCare?

  • HT201343 My Mac book pro all of a sudden doesn't have the airplay icon and doesn't work with my Apple TV . Why  ?

    My Mac book pro all of a sudden doesn't have the airplay icon and doesn't work with my Apple TV . Why  ?

    The Airplay icon will not display if the OS is unable to locate any Airplay devices.
    I would check that both devices are connected to the same network and maybe even power cycle the network devices - eg router etc
    Maybe even try to connect both devices to another network like an iPhone personal Hotspot and see if that helps to isolate the problem

  • Hi i am currently editing clips in premiere pro cc but everytime i go to change the speed not the duration of a clip it will not let me select it - also when i go to effect controls it will not let me select time mapping? please help

    What version of Premiere Elements and on what computer operating system?
    Please review the following that I excerpted from an older post here regarding Adobe's PRE_help comments about Hollywood Effect and mention of
    Red Noir. Does any of the following apply to any of what is happening to you.
    - Whenever I try to add an effect from the Hollywood Looks menu, it brings up a warning that all my previous effects on that clip will be deleted. However it will let me add those same effects *after* applying Hollywood Looks.
    This is because of how the Hollywood Looks are designed to be used. Since these are effect presets (multiple effects in combination) that result in a specific "look"; they are best applied in isolation. If any previous effect is applied and we still allow a Hollywood effect to be applied, we will not be able to see what the effect does clearly. For e.g. if you already have a Gaussian Blur effect applied to your clip, and then we allow you to apply the "Red Noir" Hollywood effect, the fact that the "Reds" in the scenes will be highlighted and the others converted to B/W will not be clearly seen since the content is already blurred out. So any previously applied effects was designed to be removed. This holds good even if you apply a Hollywood look "on top of" another one. The previous one will be replaced. Having said that, you can customize the look further by either tweaking an already applied filter or by adding a newer effect on top. That is the reason you can apply an effect on top of the Hollywood Effects and not vice versa.
    Please review and consider and then we can proceed from there if necessary.
