• Equium L40-14i does not power up if its cold

  When I push the power button down when the machine is cold, green power light comes on for about 2 seconds, then turns off. If I give the laptop a little sweet heat for 30 seconds, the notebook starts up the first time and works perfectly until the machine is turned off. The laptop is Equium L40-14i

  Hope someone can help with this strange problem.

• Equim L40 - 10U: IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL

  At random times in the last few months, my computer broke down.
  A blue screen appears with the error: IRQL NOT LESS or EQUAL and it stops and then restarts.

  When I checked the event logs, an error related to the driver Ricoh XD Picture Card was developed.
  It says "the device can not be started because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated."

  I'm really confused on this subject when I looked in the Device Manager, I don't see this listed at all driver.

  I'm on a Toshiba Equim L40 10U, with Intel Celeron M processor and 1 GB of RAM.
  The computer is about 8 months, and already, I had no problems with it at all.

  I was wondering if anyone knows how I can remedy the situation at home, if possible.

  Hello

  On the Toshiba support page, I checked that all available drivers for your laptop model. It is also ranked Ricoh Flash Media Driver. Try to reinstall this driver. Perhaps the problem will be solved.

  Please post the result.

• Equium L40-14i BIOS update now no start

  Hi all
  I had some problems with my lappie, checked if Toshiba support looking for updated drivers to slow down.
  They was a BIOS update with specified 2.00WIN an improvement in performance.

  My BIOS is v 1.60
  I'm running Vista and my model number is PSL49E

  There are warnings that this update is only for the models running Vista and PSL49x - so I thought that I was ok.

  The windows Flash update and I have a popup dialog told me that this was necessary.
  When the computer reboots, I pressed F2 and the version of the BIOS showed 2.00
  Then, I left the BIOS Setup and nada!
  Black screen, nothing else.
  The blue light is on power list, by nothing else the HARD disk light.

  It can be reflashed using FN + F and using the usb disk?
  If Yes, where can I download the BIOS original version 1.6

  Thanks a lot for any help

  Hello

  Seems that something wrong happened during the update of the BIOS.
  Possibly the ROM module was not properly flashed.
  If the ROM module must be flashed once more.

  The problem is that the European driver Toshiba page provides just the BIOS version focused on victory and this can be modified only from Windows OS.

  But I found the traditional BIOS on Toshiba page:
  http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/home.jsp

  But I can't very well if this BIOS would be compatible with your L40 so in this case, you will need to request the ASP from Toshiba in your country for assistance and for flashing the BIOS using the crisis disk BIOS m.

• Transfer audio cassette to Equim L40

  I want to transfer music to a portable cassette player in my laptop of L40 series, but it doesn't have a plug 'in line '. I tried the micro and headphones Sockets but have no sound from the speakers. IM using Audacity as the transfer software and it gives an error when recording. Using the Vista operating system, have checked its not cut. For XP using Audacity record cassette player no problem (with a line into the socket).
  Can anyone help please?

  Hello

  The problem is that your machine is lower end, Don t wonder when you have ports but cannot use them for more "professional" things like this.

• Equium L40-14i - can I get a recovery disk?

  Hey,.

  I'm stuck with that laptop right now because when I did a scan for virus about 4 weeks ago we found 179 virus and endless malware, and since this analysis I can start is no longer a normal Windows Vista 32-bit area unless it is Safe Mode.

  When my mother bought the laptop it is a display model and that they did not provide a recovery disc witht the laptop. I am able to request one or if I am not not to get a disk how am I able to rectify the Please this problem? Also when you try to open a session in normal Windows, it accepts the password then sits there with happiness on the 'Welcome' screen and does not move further.

  Help, please

  Kind regards
  Obviangel

  Your Equium L40 comes with HARD drive recovery option.
  Recovery image is recorded on the second partition, and you should have HDDRecovery folder saved on the second partition.

  Is this folder?

AFAIK there are here with 1 GB of memory, 128 MB graphics card and two games require at least 32 mb videocard support and yet they either load up, then stop responding or if I do get not one to play it crashes after a few minutes.

• Product recovery does not work on Equim L40 - corrupted files

  I was wondering if someone can help me.

  I've had this laptop for a few months and wanted to do a clean install of the system today and after that on several occasions now she crosses the CD and gets Strawberry where he deals with the new facility and after all away three-quarters through her comes to us in fact say "error: complete failure due to corrupt files.»

  I don't understand how this can be if she tries to re - install the system from the recovery CD.

  Does anyone know how to fix this?

  Hello

  Maybe is the default of restore CD. I think that your neotebook is still under warranty. Go to a Toshiba ASP allow to check the recovery media and if it is fault they replace.

• Equium L40-14i does not illuminate!

  When I turn on my laptop the power button turns green and the disk drive can be heard for a few seconds, after that nothing happens. The screen remains black. I don't know how it happened.

  Hello

  Sounds like serious hardware problem.
  You are able to access the BIOS? Usually, you can access the BIOS by pressing F2 at the beginning.
  So if this is not possible, then it means that your card mother s cell phones likely to be affected. But also the defective RAM module might be possible

  In my opinion, the technician of the ASP must check these pieces of hardware.

  Hi MartynB_1,

  The SATA drivers, you can download on the official website of Toshiba and the driver is called Intel Storage Manager.
  But you must extract the files first until you can use them.

• Tecra M2 - VAP for Vista needed

  I upgraded my old M2 to run Vista professional/Ultimate Edition.
  Any PPV Toshiba compatible, can I use?

  I have a slow performance probably due to the processor at 600 MHz clock, which is well below the specification M735, or 1.7 GHz running.
  I'm seeing if a compatible VAP can solve the problem.

  My M2 bios has been flashed to the latest 1.6 version and with 2G of RAM installed.

  Thanks to advice.
  Steven

  Hello

  VAP without specific software for laptop, you could use a VAP released for other series from Toshiba. You can see the latest Tecra series as well.
  But to be honest I don't know if you could solve a problem of slow performance using VAP last don t see a link he m

  Tecra M2 is a good old classic and you should not wonder about slow performance using Vista.
  Vista uses more resources than other systems of MS at the beginning.

• Tecra A11 - update Bios proposed - needed?

  Hi - I have just been offered a BIOS update for my Tecra A11 - 17N (Via Toshiba Service Station) - updated to v3.10 BIOS...

  Clicking on implementing up-to-date offers no details about what it contains fixes / improves - it is just said basically "install and the computer will restart several times.

  My Tecra works perfectly - no problems at all. Should I ignore it?

  Hello

  In my opinion, the update of the BIOS is unnecessary if you have no problem with the laptop. It turns out that the update of the BIOS is always a sensitive technique and if it s not really necessary, I wouldn't

  I always took this advice; never change a running system ;)

• Tecra M2 PTM20A - 002T 2 - need for ethernet and display drivers

  Please help me with an answer!

  I spent hours chasing files and installation of different things.
  Got my sound work but still need the ethernet drivers and display, I think.

  Hello

  I put t know what operating system you are using, but it s an old laptop Tecra and you can download only the Win XP drivers for this camera on Toshiba site.
  http://www.MyToshiba.com.au/support/download

  But don t be afraid!
  I recommend that you install a diagnostic equipment such as Everest Home Edition tool.
  This allows you to detect the name of the pieces of equipment (Wlan, LAN) and find the right drivers.

  Welcome & good luck!
