PCMCIA.sys problem with Vista on Satellite M40 135

Hello

(Sorry for my English)
I tried to install Windows Vista on my Satellite M40-135. (I added the 512 MB of RAM).

But, like all users, I have the problem with pcmcia.sys. Vista starts successfully when I delete the pcmcia.sys file.
But I have a problem: I have a PCMCIA TV and I could not use it without the pcmcia.sys file...

So I was wondering if Toshiba will download the new drivers for Windows Vista... This laptop is 'Vista capable' according to Microsoft System requirements...

Waiting for your help...

Unfortunately, it seems that the snipe is right.
Can the hardware specifications of this laptop allows you to install the Vista
but it seems that Toshiba has decided to publish no Vista drivers for each series laptop.

In order to check this document:

Not seem that your laptop series is not part of the list

  • Stuttering problem with Vista on Satellite P100-347 pspA6E games

    I lived several forums and tried many solutions, bios downgrade (up to v2.4), different drivers, using the riva to detect as a gt gfx card, but whatever it is I always make the problem of stuttering in vista. I've recently updated the bios to v4, which makes absolutely no difference.

    I tried to run the games with the smallest possible settings, but it's the same when I throw them to the highest. Most of the games ran on xp with the downgraded bios, but I paid extra for vista and im im going to use it. My model is a pspA6E, 7900gs 512 MB, 2 GB ram, 200 GB hard drive, running on vista (with patches).

    Can anyone help.
    I spent a lot of money on a laptop that does not produce as it should! My gpu overheating also all the time.
    Y at - it something can be done or im reinstall xp?

    Hi gazzoondi! I know that accactly what you mean. I did everything that crossed my mind too, to solve the problem, but without any result. Dosen´t seams Thosiba care custumors here and let their responsibilities to us.

    I tried to contact Nvidia also on a snap with no result... So I guess we're stuck with this...

    If it's a Direct X driver look or a conflict with the sound and graphic driver I know Don t. But if I uninstall parts of theatre and its pilot games that I still have the same problem. My guess is therefore a pure graphic driver problem.

  • Two problems with Vista on Satellite A20-S207

    Hello. I installed Vista on my A20-S207. So far so good except:

    (1) stop is veeeeery slow sleep and Hibernate seems to freeze the computer (output only is to disable manually)

    (2) video playback (any type) is extremelly slow. I couldn't find the Vista drivers for the video card (Trident CyberAladdin), so I use the old XP drivers.

    Anyone know how to solve these problems? Thank you!

    Hello

    As much I know Satellite A20 is aged about 4 years and absolutely not Vista capable. Because of this, you should be glad that you were able to install Vista on this laptop. I am very pleased to learn that you can use Vista.

    Please do not write on the problems. The problems described are not problems, but the result of old and not powerful enough hardware. All that s!

  • Problem with Vista hit the Satellite X 200 - 20 s

    Sometimes during typing on vista, it will stutter and freeze. The time is very short. Is this a problem with vista or the laptop. The T7300 Core 2 Duo 2 ghz processor.

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro S200 and the same problem was with my camera. It s is not a hardware problem, it s more a driver related issue No. So, the best thing you can do is update your bios and keep your drivers up-to-date. Just check the download Drivers Toshiba site and make sure you have the latest drivers installed.

    I had resolved my stuttering (core2duo 2.33 Ghz, 2 GB RAM) by updating all drivers...

    That's all

  • Compatibility problem with Vista and iTunes

    I downloaded iTunes 9 on my Tobisha laptop Satellite last night and put about 2.5 GB of music on it. I didn't upload the music from the internet. I used MP3s, I had for a few years.

    When I went to boot up the laptop this morning the loading process took some time, but it never loaded to the login screen. I just see the bottom of MicroSoft. Is there a compatibility problem with Vista and iTunes? Maybe I put too much music on my laptop?

    Boot in safe mode and delete iTunes and all the music I downloaded would solve the problem? Or it is less simple than that?

    Don't know where to direct this question if any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    iTunes is compatible with Vista and there should not be any problem.
    Yesterday, I installed iTunes 9 on my U400 and everything happened correctly.
    If your laptop can not boot Vista correctly, then you should try the repair feature.

    Turn on the computer and press F8. Now you will see the advanced boot menu.
    Now, you have many choices.

    As a first step, you should try the option called: last good known Configuration (Advanced)

    If this will not help and the Vista will not start then try the option called repair your computer. This option displays a list of system recovery tools, you can use to repair startup problems, run diagnostics, or restore your system.

    If that does not help, then you will need to retrieve the unit using the Toshiba recovery disc or HARD drive recovery.

    Vista compatibility tool has shown this compatible machine to install vista.

    Hello

    Satellite M40 is about two years old and this laptop is not taken in charge of Vista. I guess this hood must be new BIOS for Vista installation. Unfortunately will not create new Toshiba Vista supported BIOS and all drivers for this model of laptop. :(

  • Vista on Satellite M40 - 285-> is there any problem?

    Hello

    I have a Satellite M40-285, my wish is to install Vista on it, I know about pcmcia issues that lock boot Vista and solve their pcmcia.sys file renaming, but this does not solve the problem really, pcmcia slot and card reader didn't work.

    So I would like to know if Toshiba will launch a driver for Vista, or, everyone has solved this problem with any tip where Vista starts normally and pcmcia works fine?

    Thank you
    Kind regards.

    Toshiba M40 satellite will certainly not throw all Vista drivers or tools. This device is not Vista capable and there is no support for Vista. If you want to test with Vista create the second partition and try to install Vista on it. I did the same thing on my Vista not supported by Satellite M70.

  • How to install Vista on Satellite M40

    I have a Satellite Pro M40 and I think to install Vista on it. I have no problem with the development of an operating system on my PC, after many, many times before. but I'm not sure I put it on my M40.
    Can someone give some advice?

    Do I have to reformat the drive M40 first? If so, any reformatting program won't work or can I do it via the recovery disk provided. I am wary about using the recovery disc I do not know what to expect.

    Any help appreciated.

    You can choose several ways of instillation. You can upgrade XP to Vista, you can install the Vista on a second partition or you will overwrite the existing XP.

    If you overwrite the XP Vista will delete all installed applications.
    I recommend you to install Vista on the second partition.
    In this case, you can use the two operating system, XP, and Vista.

    When you start you laptop, you will get a Boot Manager.
    Then you could choose either XP or Vista

    PS: as much as I know many applications is not compatible with Vista, and you will need new versions (if they exist!)
    At the moment no Vista drivers are available for M40 :(

  • Question chart shared memory - Vista on Satellite M40

    I have Satellite M40-psm40 with ATI x 300 and my OS is Vista. The card has 64 MB of memory and takes 255MB with total of 319 MB of main RAM memory.

    How can I reduce it?
    * I checked the BIOS to see if can decrease, but nothing in the BIOS to change.

    Hello

    Bad news man. You can not increase or decrease this RAM graphics card!
    The installed ATI MOBILITY RADEON supports the fix own memory. It is not shared video RAM.

    There is no way to make the most efficient card.

  • Performance issues with Vista on Satellite L40 - 14N

    I just signed up to your forum, it's really nice, how it works.
    I bought 3 months ago, a satellite L40-14N, with Vista Home Premium pre-installed, but I'm starting to get tired of the delays.
    I also have a problem, always Walker I want to open some windows, such as control panel or my computer and all my icons on the desktop disappear after some time will be displayed again, but not the application open before (Panel configuration or my computer).

    I wanted to ask all of you, what may be the problem, in fact I think to get rid of Vista and install XP, do you think it would be a good idea?
    If so, what kind of xp (sp2, sp3, etc.)? And, what I would have in return when I install xp, as what drivers need me for my laptop works properly again?

    Thank you very much... good day

    Hello

    He knows that the Vista operating system is in need of more resources as a Microsoft OS at the beginning of s.
    I have a Vista on the L30 and I get a really slow performance.
    In addition many services and processes running in the background of the operating system. It also decreases performance.
    But all background processes are needed if you want to use all the features of notebooks such as the FN keys or buttons to Toshiba for example.

    However, I've installed XP on the L30 without any additional driver for the FN keys, control buttons etc and it was amazing to see how fast the laptop can be.

    So generally it s not a bad idea to install XP on the L40.
    But note; If you want to install XP on the L40 you must install the Intel Matrix Storage Manager first. Without this driver SATA XP does not recognize the HARD drive.

  • Problems with multitasking on Satellite Pro P200

    I am the owner of a new Satellite Pro P200.
    I use this laptop to use software such as photoshop, indesign, etc.

    * Now I have problems with multitasking! *
    It is not possible to run 3 programs at the same time.
    That I have to restart my laptop again and again.

    Does anyone know what is the problem?
    Can someone help me with this problem?

    For two weeks I have P200D. I use it for work and use different applications at the same time. So far, everything is OK and I am very satisfied. Maybe you should try to optimize the operating system:
    -remove all software, you do not need
    -disable the startup of unnecessary software of automatic startup (MSCONFIG)
    -customize the appearance
    -information on the open performance and Control Panel tools and use tasks on the left side to improve the performance of computer s

    P200 is powerful enough and must be able to manage with a few applications running at the same time.
