• Two years trying to get Toshiba laptop wireless connection works

  I tried for two years to try and get the connection Wireless on my Toshiba laptop to work without much success. For a short period I managed to connect the laptop to a desktop computer's ad-hoc wireless and share the internet connection in this way but then it stopped working.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro U400 - 15L model no PSU45E-00J005EN. It is with the 12.1 "screen and running Windows XP Pro sp3.

  My wireless switch on the front of the laptop is turned on. It is also activated in the software Fn F5 wireless enabled, disabled bluetooth. I don't have Intel ProSet.

  Already when I was able to establish an ad hoc connection using microsofts software. I had to manually activate the Wireless Zero Configuration (WZC) whenever even if, as he always began with disabilities or order even if I set it to start automatically. It is a monumental PITA.

  When I try and connect to the ADSL wireless router (Belkin N150) using the Toshiba Software, I get the message error "application from another provider is controlling the wireless adapter.

  I get all the time, even though I turned off Microsoft Wireless Zero Configuration (WZC).

  I thought that Windows controlled always somehow it even though I disabled WZC, so after reading solutions in other posts, that I tried to go...

  -> Control Panel-> network connections-> wireless-> properties-wireless networks tab > uncheck "use Windows to configure...". ».

  But unfortunately there is not 'the wireless networks tab' in there, all I have is the other two tabs. And since trying to use Toshibas software to connect wireless using their Radar thing, now when I click the wireless network connection in there the message "Windows cannot configure this wireless connection. If you have enabled another program to configure this wireless connection, use that software. »

  Can someone on the forum or using Toshiba please?

  Thank you

  John

  Two years? Sorry, but I can't believe it.

  If everything is Ok and I mean if there is no hardware problem you n t need more than two minutes for the WLAN configuration.

  As a first step, you must be sure that the wireless network card is installed correctly (Device Manager).
  Wireless network card must also be enabled correctly (switch > check FN + F8 > check ConfigFree tool).
  When the wireless network card that it is correctly enabled scan (check the status of ConfigFree) the area with RADAR option in ConfigFree.
  You will find this option?
  You can scan the area?
  Some WLAN is visible for your laptop?

• HP DeskJet 3630: I can't get my printer to connect to wifi

  I set up my printer and I tried on my phone to connect to the wifi and it wouldn't work so I unplugged and moved closer to the wifi. Now wifi has the word "setup" that he disappeared and only WiFi it is requiring a password I don't know

  Hello

  Your printer has a direct wifi feature that is enabled by pressing the key direct wifi on the front panel. This allows to directly connect to the wifi local printers via a password. When looking for wifi networks on your ios device, you will see the name of the wifi printer - to get the password fo rthis hold direct of wifi on the front panel to the dryer and it should print on plain paper for you.

  The other option for the wireless connection (and the most effective if you have a router) is to connect your device ios and printer to your home wifi network. You need to connect your printer to a windows or mac to establish this connection - I have included a link to the Setup instructions for each below.

• Why my Dell laptop can connect to wifi but not get internet through it?

  I have a dell vostro 3400 and I can connect to any wifi network, and while other computers can get internet through them, I can get a limited access. Also, I am running connectify (internet sharing program), a virtual wifi router and I can connect devices, but they cannot get internet through it (even if my laptop is via Ethernet). Is this a hardware problem? Software, OS? I got the model in more than a year and it has always worked perfectly... Thank you!

  xael821,

  Is there a reason that you do not have active DHCP.

  Start, Control Panel, network and sharing Center. Click your network properties. Search for TCP/IPv4 and TCP/IPv6 and click Properties. Have your settings match mine.

• How can I get my laptop automatically connects to a bluetooth at startup device

  I have a music receiver Belkin Bluetooth that I connect to with my laptop (so I can read computer music files on my stereo). My problem is that I have to go through a time consuming series of steps each time my computer restart. I would like to find a way to automate this process (for example a batch file that runs at startup).

  Currently, what I have to do is:
  1 double-click on the Bluetooth icon in the system tray.
  2. double-click on the icon for this device (in this case, it is called 'Belkin VI').
  3. wait (this is the part that I find really annoying).
  4. when it appears, click the button to connect.
  I don't know how to set up my Bluetooth to run at startup, but makes me only to the first window. Ideally I'd like a cmdlet / I can run with parameters that indicate the device from Belkin.
  Am I asking too much?

• It takes forever to stop and get an error "he made a stop forced down as background programs are 'always' running."

  * Original title: start and stop

  Hi team - can - you advise me here on this point - we have Windows 7 premium and during the signing of the computer, (and we closed everything out, I believe) it takes forever to close... We get a message that says "it's a forced down in the back ground stop programs are 'always' being-execution, then after a few minutes, the computer stops..." Is this normal?  And also it takes for ever to get signed in...  What is happening with this?  Any help is greatly appreciated - many thanks - sincerely - Dave Knapp

  Hello

  Please click the start menu, type event viewer and press ENTER. Click the drop-down list icon left of views to custom, right-click Administrative events and select Save all events in custom as mode. Choose a file name for it, and save it to the desired location.

  Download the file to a sharing site, such as OneDrive and provide me with the link.

  You can also be infected by the malware. It should run a scan with the following programs and delete anything that they detect.

  Malwarebytes Anti-Malware - http://malwarebytes.org

  AdwCleaner - http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner

  Junkware Removal Tool - http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/junkware-removal-tool

  AdwCleaner will produce a log to C:\AdwCleaner\AdwCleaner[S0].

  A newspaper will be produced by junkware removal tool in the situation where the tool has been run.

  It would be greatly appreciated if you could include the three newspapers of anti-malware above programs in your response.

  If please download MiniToolBox and save it to your desktop. Double click on it, select list installed programs and click OK. A journal is open, please send the contents of it in your response.

  I recommend that you only perform a scan with the auditor of the filesystem, which will scan your system for missing/corrupted or damaged files and will try to correct them.

• NB305 10F takes forever to start

  Hi all

  I have a brand new (two days!) NB305 10F Netbook and even it is a very nice piece of kit to mount on a half hour or so to start!

  I didn't do anything to this thing of the hook aopart up to my wireless home network and since then stop after that it simply does not work correctly. I tried to power off and re-boot in safe mode, but it still takes forever!

  What's up (Toshiba help line will get ' phoned later this afternoon!) and how do I back out of the box settings? Can I start and enter the BIOS with F2 or F8 magic or similar to reset everything?

  Any ideas would be most appreciated.

  Thank you.

  On each new Toshiba notebook is preinstalled original Toshiba recovery image. This recovery image contains many tools and utilities as well as additional applications. Most of them start by operating system and slows down the startup time.

  Please note: when you get the new book of Microsoft updates are set to auto so when you start your laptop and there is LAN or WLAN connotation your laptop will start to automatically download the updates and it will slow down the performance of any computer laptop.

  What you need is the optimization of the OS.

• Acer takes forever to load videos

  I have 3 year, acer aspire 3100 it seems to be well but the videos take forever to load and just flash player keeps crashing. What can I do to fix this?

  Part of the problem is that your PC is a laptop 3 year old. I suggest get some RAM better and uninstall programs that take up a lot of space. If you use a bulky antivirus, try using MSE.

  Second, try to visit the macromedia flash management page and delete the cache of the pages by pressing 'delete all sites '.
  You can also try to re - install all the plugins.

• When I delete an email, he comes back, says I'm not connected when I'm online, takes forever to open an email, filing bad email into folders

  Sign in to hotmail, try opening an emai, takes forever. When I try to delete, comp. will click several times, sometimes temporarily remove the item, or moving to the following email and will then often deleted email return.  Get a msg at the top of the screen saying unable to connect to the internet but will be on.  I can hit refresh and it will go back to the Inbox and sometimes the deleted email will reappear.  May read or delete two emails before the msg comes up saying not on internet, hit refresh and it will return to the Inbox.

  I ran the programs MS Malicious, AVG etc. and claims that there is not a problem, when I tried to down Malware Virus program he claims I had hundreds of load problems.  Tried CCleaner, Pinform and and several other programs that say the same thing that I have problems, but they naturally want to make me buy a program order of difficulty.  delete history and cookies and even defraged nothing helps.

  try a restore of the system before this happened

  http://www.windowsvistauserguide.com/system_restore.htm

  Windows Vista

  Using the F8 method:

  1. Restart your computer.
  2. When the computer starts, you will see your computer hardware are listed. When you see this information begins to tap theF8 key repeatedly until you are presented with theBoot Options Advanced Windows Vista.
  3. Select the Safe Mode option with the arrow keys.
  4. Then press enter on your keyboard to start mode without failure of Vista.
  5. To start Windows, you'll be a typical logon screen. Connect to your computer and Vista goes into safe mode.
  6. Do whatever tasks you need and when you are done, reboot to return to normal mode.

  ________________________________________________________________

  If you ever have to reinstall Vista

  Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

  they do it for a nominal cost of $

  also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

  you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

  Ask them of the exact key sequence

  or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

  Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

  they contain all versions of vista

  This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed
