• DRIVE DISAPPEAR INTO THE NETWORK SHORTLY AFTER THE START OF

  "I have 3 computers on my local network."  Each of them is shared and allows anyone to access.  However, when I try the search to another computer, it tells me that is not accessible and I could not have permission to use the network resource.  I shared the files to everyone and everyone should be able to read the files in the group.  He said as there is no enough storage server to process the order.  My network is on a DSL router and it is not server as such.  So I don't understand what the problem is"

  First of all, let me say thanks to JW that suggests an answer to the "not enough space in server".

  While I did change to the registry and increase in size, but it has not helped solve the problem do not see the other computer on the network.

  One thing I didn't mention is that there is a computer on my LAN, I can see there are in the network, when this particular machine started upward.

  However, after a few minutes, it disappeared from the network.    When I do a search in the network using the IP address assigned by the router, it will more be found.

  This is another problem, I'm curious and hope one can help.

  Hello

  "Server out of memory to process the order" means truoble on the computer you are working on at the time.

  Not to see another computer, or a permission problem to connect, means sharing problems on the computer that you are trying to connect to.

  "Timeout errors reported by iastor or iastor (v) in the Microsoft Event Viewer.

  "A change was made by Microsoft in the Windows Vista installation process. The result of this change is that the register Intel® Matrix Storage Manager LPM parameters which were intended for mobile installations are added for both office facilities. These LPM registry settings are added to both the RAID Intel® Matrix Storage Manager driver on the installation Windows Vista, as well as for all the added drivers disc during installation.

  Serial ATA desktop devices such as hard drives and CD/DVD drives have been reported that do not comply with the specification Serial ATA LPM and display erratic behavior when LPM is enabled.

  Because changing the configuration means that LPM is enabled by default for all Windows Vista platforms, using a device that does not completely respect the specifications may cause one of the problems listed. »

  I'm at Version 8.6 Intel Matrix Storage console well beyond the recommended version to solve this problem.

  Other research indicates that a registery hack is needed to solve this problem because the Intel driver is not yet certified (?).  The question is why a laptop power management setting is defined in a desktop computer.  It seems that these registry settings cause the hangs and the loss of the DVD player.  See http://derek858.blogspot.com/2009/01/windows-7-intel-sataahci-lockups.html

  The registry entries are for all ports are: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\iaStor\Parameters\Portx] "LPMDSTATE" = DWORD: 00000001 must be zero.  I have not yet tried it.

  Chris,

  Yes, the problem has not reoccured since the installation of the latest Intel Matrix Console now known as Intel Rapid Storage Technology (RST) v9.6.0.1014.  I ran for ten days with the plague of your Player DVD which disappears and the EventID 9 [qualification] 49156 log records.  It seems to identify iastor.sys with this version of the code as the fixer of the problem and the culprit in earlier versions.  I don't see anything on the Intel site that explains the difficulty.  One would think that they could speak and help those who have the same problem.

  Thanks to all who helped.

• Satellite Pro M40, failure of the hard drive - the new disk restore disk?

  Hello

  My Satellite Pro M40 hard drive died and I want to install a new drive. Unfortunately, my old drive is 60Gig and the Web of Toshiba parts site has only 40 GB or 80 gig drives.

  I have problems with the recovery disk if the hard drive is not exactly the same thing?

  Your advice would be appreciated.

  C

  No, he should t be any problem with the Toshiba Recovery CD.

  On the recovery CD, you'll find a Windows OS, Toshiba drivers and utilities and software further.
  These entire applications are packed into image files.

  You should only be sure that the HARD drive is compatible with your laptop and it will be recognized in the BIOS.
  Then simply to boot from the recovery and installation CD must start.

• Satellite Pro M40: Files on DVD/CD not visible

  If data are burned to DVD or CD (+ R or + RW completed another manufacturer) then inserted in my Satellite Pro M40 PC he can see folder names but he cannot see all the files in the folder. When you click on the files, he says they are empty!

  When the same disks are inserted on other devices (on DVD players connected to a TV), records show the files and files open without problem.

  Sometimes the same disc when inserted in the pc, can be detected as drive is invalid

  Audio and video disks are no problem and open immediately.

  I am at a loss because even if I backed up all my data I can't re - insert the data if I lose it.

  Hello

  There are different reasons why you CD/DVD drive doesn t manage burned CDs.
  First all CD or DVD is compatible.
  I had a lot of problems with my mediums sometimes burned the disc was able to read, sometimes, it was not possible.

  I changed the burn at a lower speed, and which has slightly improved the situation. I also changed burning software.
  Now I use the Nero burning Rom software. It s really good program.

  But the main reason for these problems is the anomaly of lens laser discs. After a long period of work of the lens cannot calibrate properly and therefore can't handle the media inserted in this case only a replacement drive helps.

  I know this has been asked before, but there must be a solution...

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro M40 with a CARPET * a DVD UJ - 841S drive. I used my 5 times to change regions, and now I'm stuck on NTSC. I read on this forum (and others) that it is simply not possible to unlock the region once the 5 times have exhausted.

  Is it possible to copy the DVD (film) on my hard drive and watch it then?
  There must be a way!

  Any information would be great, thanks.
  See you soon,.

  Hello

  As mentioned it of not possible to unlock the DVD player on a legal way.
  Of course, I found many sites that suggest that it of possible to unlock the firmware flash drive.
  But believe me; It is not desirable and very risky!
  You may damage the disc and then you can not read or burn CD or DVD media!

  I put t know if it is possible to copy the DVD to the HDD in a simple way. I never did.
  But it of possible to reduce the DVD to the smaller size, then copy it to the HARD drive.
  For this procedure, I used DVD shrink. You can check.

• Need advice on the Satellite Pro M40

  I wonder if someone could advise me. We just bought 8 smart tips for our school with these I ordered 8 portable computers SatProM40. When I ordered them I checked the spec as follows

  Toshiba SatProM40 - Celeron M360 1.4 GHz - RAM 256 MB - HD 40 GB-CD RW/DVD-ROM combo - Mdm - Lan EN - FAST EN - Win XP Pro - 15.4 "TFT.

  I checked before I ordered that the RAM was 256 because I had heard that it is the minimum recommended to switch to XP.

  Laptops take almost 5 minutes to turn on and everything takes an age to work it's really frustrating and they are totally useless for our school because the entire lesson is included with get the computers to run anything.

  I checked the system information and found laptops were running of 192 MB RAM and rang the provider. I was told that they used 64 MB for the graphics card and that's why they had provided a RAM of 256 MB computer.

  My question to someone who can help:-c' is a normal practice. If I had known this I would have ordered a laptop computer with more RAM to compensate.

  He would welcome any advice that would help us get our children working on their new computers. Thank you.

  Hi Lisa

  In my view, Satellite Pro M40 is nice unit for school work, but I agree with you really is 256 MB minimum RAM and I recommend you buy more 256 MB or 512 MB, depending on your budget.

  The compatible RAM modules are:
  PC2700 256 MB (PA3311U - 2M 25)
  PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 2M 51)

  Problem is that this device uses shared memory and that means that RAM will be used also for graphic designers. If there is someone who has a good knowledge of PC that they check all running processes. Many of them are unnecessary and can be disabled. I also noticed that preinstalled Antivir asks (Norton) slow OS quickly. If all units are not connected to the internet I recommend you to remove it.
  By the way: there are many applications of good antivir which works well and don't slow down the operating system currently running.

  Good luck!
