Tecra S11 - Display display rotation on hotkey

Hi all,
I'm using a Tecra S11 with Windows 7 64bit.
By pressing "crtl + alt + down-arrow" my display rotates 180 degrees.
Unfortunately this hotkey is one of my favorite hotkey in Eclipse, so I need to disable the display rotation hotkey.
after a long time searching I havent found a solution.
does anybody know how I may disable the display rotation hotkey ?
Thanks for any tips
Regards

Hi All,
after spending some hours of searching in the internet for a solution for my problem I actually found a solution for it.
@Horwath
Thanks for your tip with the 'graphic card settings' but unfortunately this didnt solved the problem.
After using the "Process Explorer (Sysinternals)" an taking a detail look on what's happening while pushing the hotkey I found out that there is an special utility from toshiba which executes the monitor rotation.
This utility is named: "TOSHIBA 180 Degrees Rotation Utility". After removing it over the system control, the hotkey was not bound anymore and the system behaves as expected.
And if I need "monitor rotation" anytime again, Ill use the nVidia control panel.
best regards

Tecra S11 - High Speed Fan

Hi guys,
I need some help on a issue that really puzzle's me.
After I tried to make a bios update to the ultimate (February 2012) version, within windows 7, I've obtained an error message stating that I had no permission to make the update. Since then, the fan starts to rotate in high speed, as soon as I start the computer, just after the logo display.
Since then I've upgraded the bios using the Dos procedure, but the proble persists. It performs like a fully fledge high capacity server regarding the noise fan.
How can I troubleshoot this and solve it?
Thank you.

Hi MasterG,
Thank you for your answer but that is not the problem.
Than Fan rotation starts at Post level, long before the Os kernel starts to execute.
Another starnge thing is that when I put the pc on sleep mode, when it awakes the fan is stoped. If I restart the Pc the symptom restarts.
I tried to update the bios to ver 3.30 using BIOS330_EC200.exe
It could be a EC/KBD problem. When executing from Win7 it states:
BIOS Version : Current Ver.3.30 --> Updated Ver.3.30
EC Version : Current Ver.1.90 --> Updated Ver.2.00
There is need to update EC.
<EXECUTE THE UPDATE>
Error: Preparing to update was failed.
You have not given permission to execute the update.
Really there's a problem with the update. Then only way I could do the bios update was preparing a Dos usb device and boot executing Chgbiosf BIO0076T.com and it worked.
when I tried to update the Ec using Chgbiosf EC72V200.BIN it says that the file does not exist.
So, this is the status of the problem. I don't know if anyone can help, but I fear that th Tecra S11 will blow up anytime soon if this continues.
Thanks.

Tecra S11 - What are the two primary partitions for?

Hello everybody
I just got myself a new Tecra S11 with Win7 64 and there's one thing that wonders me a littlebit.
There are four partitions in total, for sure there's the Recovery one (1.46 GB) and the System one (256.38 GB), but then there are also two primary partitions (8.86 and 31.38 GB) without any displayed use or file system. There's no non-allocated space.
Can somebody tell me what these two partitions are for ? Because I want to split the system partition up to store my data on a separated one, if possible I also want to use that "unknown" space then ;)
Besides that: Don't worry, I already made recovery DVDs.
Greetings
Nico

This is funny: I just recreated the entire Harddrive using the recovery DVDs, now the two primary partitions are gone and the space is integrated into the system one, lovely :)
Is this maybe a faulty pre installation ?

Tecra S11 mini Dsiplayport - sound output

Hi,
I have read the user manual and I did not see anything about mini Displayport sound output.
Is Tecra S11 supports sound output via mini displayport?
Are there any mini displayport to HDMI cable which supports sound to send video and AUDIO to my LCD TV?
Thank You

Hey thank you for this info. In the past this port was used for Video signal only.
After your info about working sound Ive found info that audio support was added in 2009.
This added feature allows now connecting notebooks to modern HD TVs using mini display ports to HDMI cable. It is really nice that there is full video and audio functionality.
It is really interesting that just several Toshiba notebooks are offered with this port.

Tecra S11-15T - GPRS modem doesn't work on internal USB port

My GPRS moden only works when I plug it into the dockingstation's USB port or if I use a USB port hub. If I plug it directly into the USB port on the laptop, I get an unknown device displayed in the device manager.
I have tried re-installing the chipset of my Toshiba Tecra S11-15T. I cannot get the device to work directly from the laptop's USB ports. I have WIN XP Professional.

Hi
Maybe the USB port does not provide enough power to get the modem working.
But all ports support the USB standards and every USB port is able to provide 500mA.
Possibly the modem needs more.
You can try to disable the USB power saving option.
In device manager, click right on USB root hub and go to Properties.
Then choose Power Management tab and uncheck the option; Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power

Unable to enter BIOS on Tecra S11

Unable to enter the BIOS on a Toshiba Tecra S11 using the ESC/F2 method after setting a Supervisor password.
Previous (working) behavior:
- Press ESC on boot
- F2 (bios) and F12 (boot order) options are displayed
- Press F2 to enter BIOS
A Supervisor password was set on this machine. The User password was left blank.
Current behavior:
- Press ESC on boot
- F2 (bios) option is displayed. F12 option no longer displays
- Press F2, screen blanks momentarily than proceeds to first boot device
At no time is there a prompt to enter the password. Tried blindly typing password while screen is blank (after pressing F2). Nothing.
Thoughts?

It appears that the password may not have been confirmed prior to you exiting the BIOS.
So BIOS password is like it is limbo and so it resorts to locking itself.
Here is a trick you can try:
Press "Power" to turn on your Toshiba Satellite. If the laptop computer was already on, restart it.
Hold the "ESC" key until you hear your computer beep.
Tap the "F1" key to unlock your BIOS.
If the above does not work then you may have to resort to removing the cover of the notebook and pulling the CMOS battery out for 30 minutes to reset your BIOS altogether.
Here is the GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS to Changing the Passowrd in your BIOS
Turn off your Toshiba laptop.
Wait 30 seconds and turn your laptop back on.
Press “F2” repeatedly as soon your Toshiba laptop begins booting until the BIOS menu screen appears.
Enter your existing BIOS password and press “Enter.”
Press “F2” again to enter the BIOS, if prompted.
Use your arrow keys to select the “Security” tab in the BIOS menu.
Use the arrow keys to select “Set User Password.”
Press either “F5” or “F6,” depending on your Toshiba laptop model, to open the Password section.
Enter the current password into the “Old Password” prompt and press “Enter.”
Press “Enter” when the “New Password” prompt appears. Do not enter any text in this box.
Press “Enter” again to confirm the new password.
Press “F10” to save your changes and exit.

What is, "Portrait Displays" displayed: "version changed bad license file".

Uninstalled "My Display" (display driver), per advice this forum in '08 or '09.
Guessing this driver enables landscape/portrait display swith when monitor rotated. Don't know what else.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Go to NVIDIA and download and install the latest NVIDIA video driver.
Go into the Control Panel ---> NVIDIA Control Panel and locate the rotate display function.
If the above solves your issue except for the message issue then I would delete out the Pivot software.
The "version changed bad license file" message sounds like this issue.

Re: Tecra S11 - Dual boot Windows 7 and XP

I have installed Windows 7 (from the hidden recovery section of the hardrive) on my new Tecra S11. I would like to know whether I can use the Windows XP
recovery media provided by Toshiba to create a dual boot Windows 7/Windows XP rather than reverting to XP?

You can create dual boot but not using two recovery images. Recovery image can be used for first OS installation. You cannot define on which partition the recovery image will be installed. It will always be installed on first partition.
I recommend you to do follow:
-at first install WXP using original Toshiba recovery disc
-Windows 7 install using Microsoft installation disc
I have done the same on my Satellite A300.

My MacBook Pro with Retina display displays power point and not other windows when connected to a projector

My MacBook Pro with Retina display displays power point and not other windows when connected to a projector. Can anyone help out please?

You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro forum. This is the forum for the white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

I have a MacBook Pro 15" 2.53GHz Mid2009.. updated to Lion which is now 10.7.3 build 11D50b... when I close lid and connect to Cinema Display, display will not activate... disconnect display, open lid laptop display will not activate... used to work fine.

I have a MacBook Pro 15" 2.53GHz Mid2009.. updated to Lion which is now 10.7.3 build 11D50b... when I close lid and connect to Cinema Display, display will not activate when keyboard/mouse used... disconnect display, open lid and laptop display will not activate... only way out is hold power button. Worked fine before Lion update. Any Advice?

Thanks very much Coander15... I've printed the doc you pointed me towards and I'll run through it.. hoping it helps!
Before I installed Lion I simply hit any key on the keyboard or clicked the mouse...
The keyboard is USB (usually connected to monitor which is connected to laptop... have tried direct connect to laptop as well with no luck) and mouse is USB wireless to one of those tiny plug in's... have tried direct connect USb mouse as well with no luck.
I could plug the closed/sleeping laptop into the monitor and unplug from the monitor without incident all day/night... always worked fine.
Had heard something about this happening w/ Lion but went ahead anyway.
Oh well...
Hoping your pointer helps... will let you know how it turns out. Thanks very much for responding!!!

Tecra S11 - nVidia or RealTek sound driver. Which one do I install?

Tecra S11 nVidia vs RealTek sound driver - which one do I install?
I've installed nVidia and realtek sound driver also. I've got BSOD when I plug in 3.5mm jack headphone. When I want to listen music with my Bluetooth stereo headset I also got BSOD.
I reinstalled nvidia and realtek sound drivers. My Tecra S11 is very slow since I installed latest nvidia video driver from nvidia website.
Windows 7 very very slow since then. Firefox start up time sometimes 20-30sec

Hi petersm,
The sound card of your notebook is a Realtek one so you have to reinstall the Realtek sound driver that you can download on official Toshiba website.
But as MisterX wrote you should also reinstall the Bluetooth driver because the tosrfsnd.sys file belongs to BT driver so its worth a try ;)

I have checked Toshiba download page and Win7 64bit LAN driver for your Tecra must be THIS one.

How to downgrade BIOS on Tecra S11 - annoying CPU

I have a BIOS which is "solve" the High pitched noise problem about the i5 CPU.
But I have the latest BIOS and since then I cannot downgrade to the older BIOS that "solves" the problem.
*My question is how to downgrade BIOS?*
Because I will not send my Toshiba to RMA any more because they will not repair it!!!
My Tecra S11 went to RMA 2 and 2 different Toshiba authorized service partner for about 1 month. None of them repaired my laptop! Most annoying thing is that hungarian services are absolute useless!! I have a 2 year old issue with the CPU high pitched noise.
They did not replaced the faulty CPU, they replaced the motherboard!!! for no reason. OMG!
Be very careful when you buy Toshiba laptop in Hungary, and its not the Toshiba's fault but the authorized service partners!!
Please Toshiba do something!

Hi
I assume youve got a Tecra S11 PTSE3E
The BIOS for Tecra S11 is compatible with Tecra M11 and Tecra A11
On the Toshiba USA driver page you can find all BIOS versions
The BIOS for Tecra A11-S3541 PTSE3U series should be compatible with Tecra S11 PTSE3E series.
http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/home.jsp
Choose Tecra A11-S3541 and download the BIOS version you want to install.
Unzip the package and check the readme.txt
There you can find info how to flash the BIOS using tradition BIOS version.
I think the win-based BIOS version would not function because youve got already the newest BIOS version installed.
But in my opinion you should not downgrade the BIOS because it looks like many fixes has been added to the new version

How to upgrade Sound on Tecra S11?

The Sound sounds aweful!!! which speakers could I buy myself and replace in my Toshiba Tecra S11 ?

To be honest Im really surprised with your question. Fact is that Tecra notebooks are designed for business purposes and designed for usage in offices, meeting rooms and by customer visiting so the sound is not so important in the whole package. This is not multimedia notebook so you will probably not find any Tecra with high quality speakers inside.
Ok I can understand you and maybe it is not bad idea to have perfec sound on this notebook model but I think this is the wrong place for your question. What you need is professional advice.
I recommend you to contact nearest authorized service provider and ask for help. They have maintenance manuals and know which speakers are inside and which speakers can be built in as replacement. Maybe some high quality speakers from harman/kardon can be used for upgrade but which one is not easy to say.
If you will do upgrade successfully please let us know and share every useful info with us.
