WLAN won't work on my Satellite L650D

Hi all....
On my laptop the wireless LED is orange and wont work...
When i have the notebook connected to Ethernet cable, it works great but the minute I remove it, it goes off .
Anyone know my problem ?
Thank you

Hi
I assume LAN connection works properly and you can access the internet using LAN.
But WLan connection does not work even if the WLan indicator is ON. Is it right?
Im wondering if you enabled WLan using the keys FN + F8.
Did you try that?
Did you configure the Wlan properly? I mean you should ensure that you have chosen the right encryption (WEP, WPA, WPA2, etc) and the right encryption password!
You can also disable all the security settings on your router and could connect the notebook to open WLan but this should be done only for testing puposes.

Wlan won´t work since last update

Hi since my last pacman -Syu i can´t use my Wlan. It loads the modul without any errors. But when i drop the "Wlan-button" my computer freezes!!!
I also changed from devfs to udev!
Any Ideas??

Nov 10 2004 Changes in 0.13
* Modified SW/HW rf_kill interaction functionality. See README.ipw2200 for details on current usage.
* Fixed #239: iwconfig eth1 rts off/auto not supported
* Fixed problem with not being able to associate with non-broadcast ESSID APs
* Changed default temporal timeout for scan age to 15s
* Changed MAC2STR and MACSTR to MAC_FMT and MAC_ARG
* Fixed problem with scan results not expiring
* Fixed a bug in ad-hoc support (#295) that prevented the creation of a new ad-hoc network
* Reduced interval of scan requests to 1/10th second (vs. 5 seconds)
* Modified scan logic to alternate between directed and active scanning when an ESSID is defined. This should improve AP to AP roaming via ESSID selection.
* Increased dwell time on directed scans to 100ms from 20ms
* Fixed fragmentation for both wep and with no encryption
* Fixed wireless stats reporting to indicate that the noise level is invalid. This version of the firmware does not provide noise statistics.

Bluetooth driver won't work on my Satellite Pro 6100

Hello
My Bluetooth stopped working after some updates (I forget what they were!). I have attempted many times to reinstall the BT driver from Toshiba but it just "stops" part of the way through the install - I have left it for well over 30 minutes at this point.
I have looked in the system/hardware/other devices and there is something called SiW, I'm assuming this is the BT device as I can't find anything labelled Bluetooth. I should point out that Bluetooth did work before and nothing has been removed from the computer!
Anybody any ideas/solutions to this problem?
Thanks
Andrew

Hi
Its not easy to say what why you cannot install Bluetooth driver.
I would recommend to reinstall the Toshiba Bluetooth completely form the OS.
Be sure that MS Bluetooth was also removed
Then reboot the unit and try to install the Toshiba Bluetooth stack again.

Satellite L650D-10J - Windows 7 won't start

Hi,
I have a Toshiba Satellite L650D-10J, Windows 7 64Bit, 4GB RAM and it won't start Windows 7. It starts and then you see Toshiba logo startup etc. and then it goes to black and it loads up Windows Bootmanager with the following message ;
+A problem to your computer occurred while communicating with a device that is connected.+
+This error may be caused by an external storage device such as an external USB drive, the device while in use, or damaged hardware such as a hard disk or CD-ROM drive disconnect that is damaged. Make sure any removable storage is properly connected and then restart your computer.+
+contact the hardware manufacturer if you still see this error.+
+Status: 0xc00000e9+
+Information: An unexpected I / O error occurred.+
(it was translated out of dutch so there are some sentences that aren't correct.)
I've tried downloading a Windows 7 recovery disc, burnt it on DVD. It works I'll get to choose to set it back when it was working correct (I get an error) or use a Windows 7 from disc (doesn't work). And if I start in safe mode I can see that it stops and freezes at file; disk.sys
Anyone an idea?
Greetings,

Hello
And have you connected external USB device as the error message says? If yes remove all USB devices and try to start your notebook again.
Fact is if you cant start in safe mode your OS is muddled up and the only option to get rid of this is reinstalling Windows.
Are you using the preinstalled Windows 7 version from Toshiba? If yes go into advanced boot menu of Windows pressing F8 key where you can select safe mode, etc. and choose Repair my computer option. Then select Toshiba HDD recovery and factory settings will be restored. Also check this article about HDD recovery:
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm
If HDD recovery doesnt work you need an original Toshiba recovery disk. If you didnt create this disk just order a new one here:

WLAN has stopped working - Satellite X200/N00, Vista 32-bit Ultimate (SP1)

When I purchased this laptop earlier this year, everything worked pretty well with no significant issues. A few weeks ago, however, my WLAN connection stopped working -- specifically, it does not get a valid IP address from the router.
Notebook is a Satellite X200/N00 (PSPBUA). OS is 32-bit Vista Ultimate (SP1).
It was working fine right up to the point where it stopped working. The router itself still works fine -- I have used the wireless connection with a completely different laptop since having the problem on the Toshiba.
This seems to be a fairly common Vista issue, but so far everything I've tried has failed to get me anywhere.
The router is a D-Link DSL-G604T. I have updated it to the latest version of firmware, but this has not made any difference.
In Vista I have disabled IP v6.
I have installed the latest version of the Intel wireless driver (v12.1.2.1). The hardware passes all self-tests, the only thing that fails is obtaining the IP address.
I don't know why the wireless connection just stopped working -- as best as I can recall, I had not installed any new software or updates just prior to it stopping working. It doesn't seem to be a hardware fault.
One thing I have not yet done is test the connection with a completely different wireless router (e.g., at a public access point).
That may be instructive, but not really useful, since I need to get it working with the router I have!
Any thoughts?

Hi
There are many different reasons why the IP address cannot be obtained.
In first case you should check if your firewall is disabled or doesnt prevent the IP address from receiving.
Secondly you should check if the TCP/IP protocol was set to automatic
You can find such settings in TCP\IP protocol properties.
Last but not least I would recommend disabling all security settings on the router and trying to establish the WLan connection.
Please check if the Mac address filtering was disabled, disable the WLan encryption, and check if the right SSID is in use.
If it will be possible to establish the Wlan connection then you could enable step by step the single WLan security settings on the router.

Satellite A200 28H : F6 floppy won't work while installing XP

Hi,
I'm trying to install Windows XP pro on my new laptop (Satellite A200 28H), and since it needs SATA driver, I have downloaded the appropriate driver for my laptop (Satellite A200 28H), put them on a floppy to use with a USB floppy drive (which works fine), pressed "F6" when appropriate and all... But it just won't work. I have had a computer technician background for a few years, so even thouh this is no longer my job and I might be a bit rusty, I think I still know at least a bit what I'm doing... Well, apparently I'm more out of picture than I thought !
I have tried several things, and here is what I get :
* If I do not use the floppy at all, Windows XP will not find the hard disk. That was expected, no problem here, save for the fact it is utterly useless to me :)
* If I force the driver on the floppy, despite Windows telling me it already has a driver it can use, then within 10 seconds I get a BSOD with the 0x7B stop message (boot device not found or unreachable).
* If I use the floppy, but do not force the driver and instead listen to Windows ("oh, you already have a driver ? Ok, then, use it and nevermind that floppy"), I can actually finish the installation process. Windows will copy all the files it needs on the drive, it will even reboot properly after that and go on installing itself. But when the installation is over, the computer will reboot, I will see the loading screen for a second, and then, BSOD stop 0x7B again.
I'm pretty sure I have downloaded the proper driver for my computer. Actually, I also tried a couple of wrong drivers too, just to be sure (ie I should use Intel Matrix for ICH8M, but I also tried the one for ICH7M to be sure), I tried with drivers downloaded from the Toshiba website, from the Intel website, and from whatnot-other-website-for-newbies-or-powerusers, and I always have the same behaviour as described above.
I have tried partitioning / formating during the installation, and I also have tried leaving the file system untouched. If I do the latter, the only difference is that I am offered 2 possible OS to boot from, both being Windows XP, and both failing miserably.
It's probably interesting to mention that, if I use the recovery DVD and start fresh and clean with Vista, I have no problem whatsoever, save for the gazillion process loaded at startup, the already half-used RAM and the hundred or so useless applications I don't give a darn about... And the fact that some applications I need to work just can't be installed on Vista.
If anyone has any idea about how to fix it, I'd be most grateful !

Hi
The procedure including the SATA drivers into the Win XP using the external USB floppy drive is very easy.
First of all you have to download the Storage Manger and have to put it on the floppy.
During the Win XP Setup procedure you have to press F6 button to include it from the external floppy drive and follow the further instruction on the screen.
_Note;_
Very important is that your Win XP CD would contains the SP2!!!
Without the SP2 a BSOD could appears and could break up the installation!!!
Dont format or dont create any partitions after the SATA driver installation. This can erase the installed and included SATA driver from the HDD.
Last but not least some external FDD drives are not supported. I read that some users had some problems with an external FDD drives they tested another drive and it worked finally
Check the recommended points maybe it could be useful

Hi. I am running Windows 8.1 on a 64 bit Toshiba Satellite P70-A laptop with 16Gb of RAM. I have installed Adobe Creative Suite 6 - Master Collection. All is fine except for Adobe Acrobat X. It runs OK for a while, but then suddenly it won't work. I uninstall it, re-boot and re-install again, bit the same process repeats itself and once again I have to uninstall and re-install again. I don't know if windows update interferes with it? Has anyone else had a similar problem? Is it fixable?

Re: Satellite L650D LAN not working after Win7 reinstallation

Hello friends
i have a big problem with my notebook
I just reinstalled the windows 7 home premium and now i cant access to internet
There is an unknown device in my device manager
I have downloaded many drivers but non is working for LAN.
Waiting for kind replies.
Toshiba Satellite L650D System Unit.
Model No: PSK1SA-03E014

>... but i have a product key with my notebook a label containing windows 7 home premium product key.
Unfortunately this key is useless and you cannot use it for own OS activation. This key belongs to original preinstalled OS.
In my opinion you should now waste your time waiting for someone who can help. Contact nearest Toshiba service provider and order original Toshiba recovery disc. It costs a bit but you will have original OS and you can use this disc for OS installation anytime if something goes wrong with your OS.

Satellite A300 - inbuilt Chicony webcam won't work with Win Live Messenger

Hello
I just bought a *Satellite A300-1MC* (runs on Vista Home Premium), and downloaded Windows Live Mail And Live Messenger.
The inbuilt webcam won't work with Live Messenger ; and when selecting Tool, Audi + Vieo Setup in Messenger I get thye following message : "We are unable to run Audi Video setup".
The webcam works fine with the Camera Assisant Software.
I have tried : 1) killing the C.A. Software and starting Messenger ; 2) dowanloading a webcam driver from Toshiba website ; 3) Updating Windows Vista
None of the above work.
Any suggestion gladly received.....
Thomas

Hi,
Many thanks for the advice.
I have downloaded and installed ManyCam 2.3, then rebooted.
The ManyCam software works fine, and picks up signal from the inbuild webcam.
But Windows Live Messenger still doesn't pick up the camera. I can not start a Video call or go to" Video Audio setup".
I have Windows Live Messenger version 14.0.8064 (installed on Tuesday).
Funny enough, yahoo messenger works fine : it gets a signal from the webcam.
Conclusion : i think it is Windows Live Messenger that doesn't work properly for some reason.
I have ordered a new external webcam, in the meantime.

Satellite A300 - screen won't work sometimes

Ok so first of all I want to start by telling you that I am a complete noob when it comes to computers, and also my native language is not english, but i'll try my best to make you understand my problem.
Sometimes, when I try to turn on my laptop, the screen won't work. I hear the fan running, those little lights on the keyboard light up, but the screen just remains black...this happened for like 3 days until today, I got home and it magically worked. This same thing happened like a month ago...what is going on? :s

On this virtual way it is not easy to offer exact diagnostic.
What we can do here is nothing but speculation about possible reasons.
A300 is not the newest model so there can be some problem with connection between mainboard and the display.
Next time when this happen, try to move display or press gently the notebook below the display just to see if this will help or not.
At the end I must say that only service can help you with this. With other words they can disassemble the notebook and check the display cable.

Tecra S3 - Wlan does not work after Win XP installation

Hello everyone,
I have recently purchased a Tecra S3 PTS30E-0TL059GH without operating system.
I've installed WIndows XP professional.
Everything works, except for the wireless lan. I can switch it on, but it doesn't seem to find the right drivers.
The device manager states problems with the networkcontroller and two other unknown devices.
I've installed all drivers from the toshiba website, but it still won't work.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!

Hi
I think the notebook supports INTEL 802.11 B/G WLan card but I'm not 100% sure about that...
In my opinion you should try to identify the WLan module.
How to do that?
In such case the usage of the PCI database should be very helpful.
More details here:
[How to identify an unknown device (e.g. Wireless LAN module)?|http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=78]
Knowing the exact WLan specs, it should not be a big deal to get the right driver.

Satellite L650D-12P - Can I install a Linux distribution on it?

Hi.
5 months ago, I probably made one of my biggest mistakes; I bought a Satellite L650D-12P. To my horror, I discovered the inability of the computer, to use or even install Linux of any kind.
Since I bought it, I've tried about 4 times a month, to install Linux, to no avail. I've tried searching through Linux forums, tried several tweaks, etc. The Insyde H2O BIOS of the L650D-12P just doesn't work with any distro, the newest BIOS (which were released 6 months ago) doesn't change anything, either. The ACPI is totally off, the DSDT tables are corrupt. Other people report of general ACPI problems with Toshiba machines; it seems I am not the only one.
Is this how it's supposed to be? The customer is refused the right, to use the operating system he wishes? Are we forced to use only Microsoft products? Even Apple machines can install other operating systems.
I thought the age of forcing software upon people were long gone. Alas, it is not.

Hello Kesse,
I have been able to install Ubuntu on my Toasiba satellite L650D
Ubuntu 10.04
On the purple screen press any key
Press F6
Press escape
now press Tab and add
pcie_aspm=off
Hit enter and be patient, it worked for me.
Same procedure with Ubuntu10.10 and 11.04
But before you reboot:
open gedit in terminal
Edit the file /etc/default/grub insert pcie_aspm=off as boot option
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=quiet splash pcie_aspm=off
save and recompile grub.cfg with the command:
sudo update-grub
Good luck.

Satellite L650D-11E - no camera on Windows 8.1 64bit

Hi ,
I have a problem on a friends laptop regarding the web camera. Windows 8.1 64bit do not recognise it (USB\DEVICE_DESCRIPTOR_FAILURE). I am aware that there are no drivers available although I did try installing the toshiba camera win7 64 bit utility ,in compability mode but as expected it did not help. Maybe it's dead but would like to try something.
So my question is ,what is the chipset of the web-camera? I need to find a similar 64bit driver and modify it to force windows loading it .Or could someone could point me where to download a proper driver (with *.inf file)?
Satellite L650D 11e (PSK1SE)
Thank you!

Hi
The Satellite L650D-11E has been equipped with the Toshiba 0.3M Pixcel Camera (MI-380)
But usually the Windows 8.1 does not need special webcam drivers. The system use own Microsoft driver in order to get the webcam recognized.
Anyway, fact is that this notebook series isnt Win 8.1 supported. :(
This means that Win 8.1 drivers were not released for this notebook model and doubt that you found find a Win 8.1 driver for this device.
But I googled for the USB\DEVICE_DESCRIPTOR_FAILURE and found out that the problem could be related to USB ports drivers. Fact is that the webcam is connected to an USB controller.
I would recommend you to uninstall all USB ports in device manager.
Then let the windows find and install the default drivers for USB ports.
Note: the chipset driver is an essential part to get the USB controllers working properly.

Satellite L650D battery does not charge

Hello.
My notebook model is Toshiba Satellite L650D PSK1SE.
Recently I have updated my BIOS to v1.80, because there was a problem with installing Linux, which is solved in v1.80. Then I have encountered another problem - my notebook couldn't hibernate.
This problem suddenly disapperared after a few months, but then battery stopped charging.
When I plug in my notebook, Windows 7 says "Plugged in, Not charging, Percentage: N%".
Sorry, I can't write exactly what is the message because for me it's in Russian. But it's something like that. Ubuntu says that battery is OK and charging, but in fact it is not.
It starts charging when I deattach my battery and attach it back physically.
Toshiba PC Health Monitor says that me battery is OK. Also i've noticed that Eco Utility DO NOT WORK when this issue appears.
Usually this happens when I do not use notebook for a few days while it is in hibernation.
That's all.
Sorry for bad english. Looking forward for your assistance.

Hi
I cannot imagine that this problem might be related to the new BIOS
But try this:
- access the BIOS and set it to default (Press F9 to get default and save changes pressing F10)
- shut down the notebook and disconnect the battery and ac adaptor
- press and hold power button 30sec long.
- connect the battery and ac adaptor and power up the unit
- check if the battery can be charged.
