• Big problem with m40 129 (memory and sd card)

  Hello
  A week ago I bought the last m40 129 of the saturn store in Düsseldorf, Germany. Because I speak not German I formatted the laptop and installed my version of prof. under ms Windows XP license. After installation, I was checking the system information and I discovered that system memory is 512 MB! After you have installed all the drivers and the service Pack 2 of xp memory count has not changed. I checked the bios, it is always the same.
  The other problem is the sd card slot, even I installed the necessary drivers, it does not work. As I'm living, in the Netherlands, I don't know what to do. Please give help.
  Nice look

  Hello

  As far as I know, the set comes with 1 024 MB RAM. Please check the specifications of the laptop. I hope that the aircraft was properly packed and you're the first person who opened the package. Otherwise contact the seller and try to check what can be the problem. You can also contact partner in your country, and they can check if there is some malfunction of the equipment.

  In my opinion that you n t need no matter what BIOS update. CD Tools & Utilities is not supplied with this unit. Each user must make one his. I hope you did a. The problem is that the drivers installation must be done in the right order. If you use the CD of tools there must be a description of how to do it on the right track.

  To use DVD-RAM, it must also be installed DVD-RAM driver. Like I said check the CD of tools if you have made a. There must be a single html file with explanation how to do this.

• Satellite M40-129 and drivers Win7

  Hello

  I just installed Win7 on my Toshiba Satellite M40-129. It was really hard... Windows refuses to complete the installation until I deleted pcmcia.sys in the windows system folder.

  Now I have the problem that my pcmcia cardbus is working nor my SD card reader. As soon as I ask for Win7 to update driver PCMCIA, the doesn´t of the computer unbootable until I have again to remove pcmcia.sys.

  Now my question: I can live with having one for not working the PCMCIA port, but there all the drivers available for windows 7 and the Cardbus SD?

  Thank you very much.

  Technohead

  This old Satellite is not supported for Win7 and you won't find any driver for it. It is not easy to configure the hardware on these old books but Win7 has good drivers base and, after several Microsoft updates most of the equipment must be installed correctly.

  What you can try is to try to install the driver designed for another model of laptop. Perhaps satellite A100 or Satellite A200. I put t know if this will help but you can test it in any case.

• Need Soundcarddriver for M40 - 129

  Hello

  I can't use the preinstalled in Windows XP HOME (some network and management Funktion I need are not in XP HOME) and so I installed the Version of XP PROFESSIONAL.
  Now, I need the Soundcarddriver (SoundMAX) for my M40-129 (not M40x).
  On the drivers here is only the software for virtual sound, but is not the driver, only a tool for Soundenhancing.
  Any tips?

  Thank you. And sorry for my bad English, ich, hope you understand my problem.

  Best regards

  Hi 2Toshi,

  Have you tried to install XP Prof with the recovery CD? I think this should work, because it is a complete picture of Toshiba. No additional drivers to install.

  Good bye

• Does anyone have experiences with Windows Vista on a Satellite M40-129?

  Hello
  does anyone have experiences with Windows Vista (Business) on an M40-129? Any suggestions on the proper drivers and advice are welcome.

  Best regards
  Sascha

  Hello

  I have an owner of the M40 motorway m but I didn t install Vista on my laptop.
  Why? good Vista needs a lot more material resources like the XP.
  In addition many additional applications that are running on my system are not compatible with Vista.
  Last but not lease I didn t find the drivers of Toshiba for the M40 on the Web site.

  I think that the drivers Vista missing on the page is not a problem serious because important factors as driver graph, sound driver, lan and Wlan driver can be downloaded from the website of chip manufacturing.

  Anyway, if you want to install Vista on your M40 I would create an additional partition and install the OS on the second partition.
  In this case, you can use the two BONES; XP and Vista.

  To my knowledge the Vista installs a clean boot manager and it should be very easy to switch between XP and Vista.

  Best regards

• Satellite M40-129 Harddrive Bluescreen Error

  Hello
  I got a M40-129 last year, created 2 Partitions and installed XP Pro SP2. Everything worked very well, but a few months I drive hard-error-Bluescreens. When I run Chkdsk afterwards, I get messages about bad securities Index or orphan data segments (translated from German). Normally I reinstall my laptop then go to a backup Image and all is well again. But these errors occurring weekly/daily now.

  I called the support, but I was told that the support would be only grab the laptop and see if the problem still occurs. But that's what I'm already doing. Is it possible to fix this?

  Best regards

  P.S Partition Magic shows my a score of 88 Type which is big 204 MB. Any idea what this score is used?

  Hello

  First something about your partition hidden.
  The M40-129 Sat was delivered with the Media Express Player.
  This player is pre-installed on the hidden partition.

  Well, HARD disk system errors and the file can result from a variety of problems, such as hardware failures, outages of electricity, poor system maintenance, virus and human error.

  When you run Chkdsk with parameters, such as / f / / r, Chkdsk repair errors related to file system structures.

  I recommend the Microsoft information page. Here, you will find many useful information about HARD drive failure and why this happens.

• M40 - 129 - trouble

  Hi guys,.

  2 weeks ago, I bought my satellite M40 129 with
  Harman/kardon. I had 2 problems.

  1) SOUND through the HEADSET
  Songs (CD or mp3s) I'm listening on my 3 year old office
  through good quality well real, true stereo headphones.

  On my laptop...
  -If I listen to it with the built-in speakers, very well.
  -If I listen to it with headphones, poor quality sound like mono.
  I also tried with Virtual Sound to make it better,
  but I don't get the real stereo as my office.
  The sound card on my desktop computer is more than 5 years,
  but it sounds a lot better than the M40 129 through the headset.

  No idea how to improve?
  (I have the driver 5.12.1.5240 version)

  2) NOISE WEIRD PEEP
  I don't know how to describe it, but I get noise weird peep
  my laptop. Sometimes it disappears, but it doesn't come
  Precedent.

  No idea how to get rid of this noise to peep?

  I haven't worked a lot with the laptop again.
  I hope not to have surprises.

  -Aykut (of Germany)

  Hello

  (1) if the sound is good enough try to do better using a graphic equalizer on the reader you use and also check the sound properties and audio especially in the advanced audio properties. I noticed that fake adjustment result with very poor sound quality
  (2) I found an info that some strange noises occur if the sound card power is set on the power supply Mode. Please try to change to no. energy savings.

  Hope that will help you. Your device is a new and I believe that any update of the BIOS is necessary.

• When I'm playing games like Fifa07 Satellite M40-129 freezes

  When ia´m to play games like Fifa07 my phone freezes from time to time. I have a Satellite M40-129 with the latest version of the driver 6.14.10.6525.

  I get the error message (German): http://img265.imageshack.us/img265/2337/grafikkartentreiberdf9.png

  Dxdiag: http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/2250/grakatreiberup4.jpg

  Isn't there anything I can do to avoid those who freezes.

  Hi Sascha

  Is the laptop freezes only when you play this special game or it freezes by other applications, games, etc?
  Don t know exactly why it happens, but if the laptop freezes only during playback the Fifa07 then it might be a problem of compatibility of graphics driver with this game.

  Do you use the graphics driver for the Toshiba page?

  Hello

  Check the properties of the card wireless in Device Manager. On the Advanced tab, there is transmit power setting. I hope that it is defined at the highest level. Your card is standard g and it should work up to 54 MBit per second.

• Adapter Satellite M40 - 129 Centrino PM730

  Hello

  I have the portable 'Satellite M40 - 129 Centrino PM730' computer
  I need a 2nd power adapter, because I'm working on 2 places (and I'm lazy to wear)
  The one I have is model Liteon: PA-1750-08.
  (1) is the only model that works, and that another one would also work?
  (2) I want to buy it online, what other adapters are also compatible for my laptop.
  I have no idea for the "key words" I can search in google or ebay?
  (Currently the results I get for my research are not so good.)
  (3) for example, I found Liteon model: PA-1650-02. This would also work with my laptop, is there any mapping?

  Thank you

• Satellite P100 - 115 ACPI problems on Linux

  I have a P100-115 (United States is P105 -?) with geforce 7600. I tried to install suse 10.1. Everything was fine, but after awhile, I noticed a strange thing. The main vent only lights when 65 ° C is reached and the vent on the side left (graphics card) lights never. Then I checked the temperature through Nvidia driver and to my surprise, there were 85 C. So I have concluded that the fan control does not work.

  The main fan light probably because of thermal protection in portable computer because I tried to play with trip points and there was no effect. Now I have to run suse with acpi = off switch because it makes the fan runs all the time. But you can imagine how annoying, this can be. I s there is another user who uses linux unde P100 and P105 and his control of the fan works?

  Has anyone tried to play with the table DSDT of ACPI at?

  Hello

  Well, as much as I know that the Linux Suse 10.1 is a beta version and in my opinion some bugs may appear.
  I have read that many people have problems with Suse 10.1 installation or operation of this Linux distribution.
  I recommend you to visit the official site of support of Suse for more details.
  In addition, you can try to install an early version on Suse or you use a different linux distribution.
