Need some tips to maintenance for laptop - Satellite L40

Hello

I have Satellite L40-170, and I have a few questions about her, since it is the my first laptop:

1 should I remove the battery when it is fully charged and I work on the KT?
2. If I don't need to use the battery for a period of time (2-3 weeks) I let loaded or unloaded?
3. I realized how to cleanse the body and screen of the laptop, but I don't know exactly how to clean air vent covers?
4. I am running XP and the temperature of the CPU, according to Everest varies between 35-55 degrees Celsius, is this normal?
5. I just read the thread for a L40 fading paint, here in the forum and I grew up very worried, what to do to prevent such an unpleasant effect?

So, here are my questions for now, I'd be more than happy if I get answers to my questions.

Thank you in advance!

CDL 1 & 2 If you work on AC you should removed the battery... But I read it is better for the battery is discharged to 40-50% and then removed... and if you do not use the battery for the longer period, leave is too loaded in 40-50%... There is another opinion - leaving the battery fully charged, but in the two most important is - battery must not be discharged to leave...

ad.3 vent - use compressed air
ad.4 temp is ok.
CDL 5 it is lok as very rare problem, because I don't ' t find any post something like that

    Hey Buddy

    I think I'll start with basic information;
    Laptop you seems to belong to the series of PSL4C;
    You must choose this series if you download the drivers;

    On the other hand; If you use XP on this unit, you will need to update the BIOS to the XP version.

    Last but not least I found the compatible modem on the Toshiba driver European page for this series. That is why I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to use the modem on Win XP.

    Check it out!

    Welcome,.

    Hello

    I think that you the WLan card cannot be accepted because you used all just a bad driver WLan.
    As I m wrong not the Satellite L300 - 17L belongs to the PSLBCE series and it was equipped with the * WLan Intel chip (Golan) *.

    I think you have tired to install the Realtek or Atheros WLan driver.
    I recommend that you install the driver from Intel.

    This forum thread should help you a little more:

    Users here discussed on the same theme and user Chad posted a link to the Toshiba WLan portal where the correct driver WLan could be found.

    Hello sorbet

    I found the information that your laptop can handle with 512 MB max. I guess that your device already has 256 MB. You can use the second 256 MB module and put it in a second slot.

    Part number for the module memory of 256 MB is PA3127U - 1. 25 M.

  • Need English version of Vista for my Satellite A100

    I bought my computer laptop Satellite A100-999 of Valencia, Spain. I'm from Romania. The seller told me that Windows Vista also has English as language of work. He was wrong. Only for task is English. I have tried many time to switch to English, but I have not found anything. Then... I wonder if someone can lead me somewhere or give me a patch with the English for Windows Vista Home Premium.

    Thank you very much.

    Hello Nedelcu

    I'm afraid that you have misunderstood something. The seller probably meant that Vista is also available in English, but you can not switch pre-installed version in each language.
    If you want to have vista on English, you must buy Microsoft facilities to original Vista DVD and do a clean install of the OS.

    All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities on the English version, you can find and download from Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads.

    Bye and good luck!

  • Need new battery for my Satellite L40 - PA3615U battery

    I bought my laptop for more than 1 year and it has worked well, but the main problem is my battery. The laptop comes with a PA3615U battery.
    Now the battery stand only for maximum 15 minutes and when I boot in linux (Ubuntu) I get a notification message that tells me that the battery is damaged or empty, and it works only at 30% capacity.

    Maybe I used the laptop and the battery in a bad way, I am fully aware of this, but I tried to find the same model of battery on the interest, but what I found was available in Africa (preety far away where I am) and on one local site, he said that this type of battery does not produce more. Is this true? If so, which other batteries are compatible with my laptop?
    Where can I buy a new battery compatible with my laptop next to my country?

    Laptop: Toshiba Satellite L40 - 17 q
    Battery: Model PA3615U-1BRM (4000mAh) number
    Country: Romania

    I found the info that your Satellite L40 can manage with two battery models:
    PA3615U-1BRM and PA3615U-1BAM

    Try to check if you can find one of them in your country.

  • Need some tips to merge the two table-manipulation functions

    Hi guys!

    Thanks to Johnsold, Helmut O'Brian and Jcarmody, who helped me through a string function complicated (for me, the noob of LV), I got away with my project and I'm very close to its end.

    As I've described it here I wanted to explore an array of words combined with-, i.e. C1 - C10. Help, when I arrived, I was able to do. I also learned a few things and was able to do the following:

    Original array: new table:

    R1                                                       R1

    R2                                                       R2

    C1-C3                                                  C1

    K1                                                       C2

    C3

    K1

    I have this:

    Original array: new table:

    R1                                                       R1

    R2,R4,R7                                             R2

    C1                                                       R4

    K1                                                       R7

    C1

    K1

    I was also able to combine these two functions

    Now, back to my problem.

    Until now, it was just a 1 d array that I worked with. In fact, it's a 2D array, I read a. CSV file:

    As you can see there are a few places where things is combined with either - or by commas. I need to widen the first column as described above and as resolved in the thread I mentioned. Fact! No problem. I extracted the first column in table 1 d. Then expand it. Now, I need to replace in the original array and also expand all.

    It should then look like this:

    Then I only need to copy the position of the R6 line and paste it in the empty fields:

    I enclose below two screws. Start by opening the main.vi. Then copy.vi. I tried to describe the problem here too. You can see what I've accomplished and what is missing.

    Tasks:

    1. replace the column expanded in the original array and expand all.

    2 copy the needed lines.

    In the main.vi, I do the 1 d expansion, but I have the problem with the expansion of table 2D. In copy.vi, I managed to copy the lines. If this part is done.

    Basically, I need some advice on enlargement that I do and how do I get the 2D table also expanded. Because I have not much experience, I feel more comfortable working with 1 d arrays. But I can't seem to get any further with this 1 d-> expansion 2D.

    I also really can't seem to find a smart way to implement my function of copy-line-in the main.vi.

    P.S the joint screws are manufactured in LV2010.

    Fortunately, I can attend some courses of basic home OR here in Norway, but so far, I'm still learning and I think that sometimes, I try to do things that are way out of my League

    I don't know what I did but it works now

    Thanks for the help, same!

    You are even welcome!

    Have attached the file if anyone wants to see what I did.
