Portege M200 - WLan disappears and cannot be reconnected

Hey guys,.

I have a toshiba portege M200 computer laptop with Windows XP Professional and SP2.

If I turn the WLAN adapt the WLAN network appears once and I can connect and use it without problem.

If I disable and enable the wireless network adapter or it spend some time the WLAN network is not shown. A restart does not help.

Can someone tell what is the problem?

Hello

How do you disable the wireless network adapter?
Did you use the switch on the side of laptops?

Usually the wireless network must be enabled by using the FN + F8 option
So if you your wifi does not work then you must use the FN + F8 combination keys to activate the WLan again.

In addition, you should check if you are using the latest driver WLan...

Welcome mate

  • CD/DVD drive disappears and cannot be accessed by car.

    First of all here is my system:

    * 64 - bit Windows 7

    * Acer Aspire 4810 t

    * Just upgraded to windows 7 two weeks ago, the first time I tried the disk with the new OS drive, which worked fine with Vista.

    The problem is when I connect to windows and discovered 'My computer', I can see the disk drive, it appears in the window. I can go to the device Explorer, and play with him in it and nothing happens. However, as soon as I plop in a disk, the entire disk disappears from the "workstation, etc. and I can't able to recognize the drive."
     
    The disk drive works fine, I've used it before, and I'm still able to start with him outside of windows.

    I tried these steps, for the first part on the registry change, entries, that I was told to delete do not exist. I tried the second part to reinstall the drivers and that no longer works.
     
    I think the problem might have something to do with it. When I go into my computer, the drive is not listed as a cd/dvd drive, instead its listed as "Devices with removable storage". Any ideas why this could be?

    Finally, I reinstalled windows 7 clean install and flashed the new bios Acer. Yet, the problem is the same.

  • The Windows product key sticker has disappeared and cannot use it to activate

    Windows product key sticker is missing at the bottom of my laptop and I can't do some of the latest figures, my laptop computer manufacturer did not provide any hardware Windows 7 or a disk and I contacted them and they won't help. My windows 7 is actually owner I have the sticker on the bottom of my laptop as evidence, can I send this to microsoft to help out me? also note, I had problems with my laptop and realizing that the hard drive has indeed not my old windows 7 installed and the hard drive is faulty, it cannot be extracted, that is the reason why I have a problem.

    your manufacturer would have provided a recovery partition on your hard drive to recover windows. If your hard disk does not and you can't read your key, you will probably need to order from your manufacturer OEM recovery disks. (no key needed, because the OEM SLP key is embedded).

    Try a bright light and a good magnifying glass to read your product key.

    IF still nothing, you should ask them to bring this problem to a support technique level RIM.

  • C disk hard disk space disappear and cannot return

    My hard drive c [I have Windows Vista home premium service pack 2/Toshiba Satellite A205, 32 bit OS] had about 60 GB of space unused and suddenly, from nowhere, it has less than 1 GB.

    I have already tried:

    -defragmentation,

    -Disk Cleanup,

    -deletion of restore points/shadow copies,

    -scanned for virus/spyware/malware.

    -uninstalled all unnecessary programs.

    Nothing I've done has increased space. What is causing this problem and how can I solve this problem?

    Thanks for your help.

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    In fact, I discovered what the problem was by downloading WinDirStat and apparently Norton 360 has created approximately 66GB of backups so I deleted all those and my hard drive is back to normal.

    Of course it was something so simple... oh well at least it's fixed now.

    Why wireless sometimes appear and disappear?

    Hello

    The WLan can appear or disappear because of a weak wireless signal.
    My WLan disappear and lose connection if I move to the other room

    But this issue may be related to a BIOS and WLan driver so I recommend to first update the BIOS, then the driver WLan.

  • Maximum hard drive on Portege M200

    I recently bought a Portege M200 on ebay and I think to install a new hard drive of 250 GB IDE.
    Y at - it a maximum size of hard drive for this model?

    Hello

    There is certainly a HARD drive size limitation the point is that the BIOS supports all HARD drive sizes and to be honest I don t think a 25GB HDD would go 0.
    I think it s all just too big

    Unfortunately, Toshiba doesn't provide details about the possible HARD drive s max
    I looked a bit of a found that the M200 was equipped with 60 GB HARD drive
    That's why an 80 or maybe a 100 GB HARD disk too should t be a problem

  • Portege M200 - bought on Ebay and frustration comes

    Hello

    I m new here and I want to ask for a warm welcome. I purchased a M200 on Ebay and he received two days before. The M200 hasn t had a DVD player and I have no recovery CD or software for my Toshiba. I have a Toshiba external slimline PCMIA CD-ROM, but more of him later.

    I found a lot of information based on this topic, but really nothing has worked for me, that article why I ask my questions here. So far, I'll tell you what I tried...

    I bought VISTA Home Premium and want to install on my M200.

    On my M200 FreeDOS short.

    I tried:

    1. use my USB drive as a floppy using a HP tool that simulates a USB drive as a disc of floppy (FDD). I ve a copy all the contents of the Vista DVD for my USB. Then I ran the BIOS on the M200, select FDD as first boot option, but nothing happens, it still start FreeDOS.

    What I'm doing wrong, Boot USB (diskette) works on the M200?

    2. as there is an external Toshiba CD Player included in my M200, I thought the first installation of a Windows XP disk. In the first period the player seems to not work, but after some time, it worked and I put my Windows XP on it. He loaded the disc, and the typical blue screen for the start-up of the plant came. But after a few seconds he stopped and said "could not read the data xxxxxx.xx, error 7. I tried two more times and same error appeared, only that it was another file that could not be read, and another error number.

    I read and I don't know if it's true:

    I have red somewhere that I can only install Windows XP which was used on the recovery CD from Toshiba (that the CD was not included in my M200). So I can't use for OS install the recovery CD and any other normal XP CD?

    Or is there an error with my external CD drive? Currently, it doesn't work again...

    3.

    I have red the following link to install Vista on M200 by a PXE server:

    http://flimflan.com/blog/InstallingVistaOnYourToshibaM200.aspx

    and this one

    http://home.allegiance.TV/~joem298/

    The first link says I can go point 13 of the second link:

    Umbrella and that's what bothers me. They tell me. Turn on your Toshiba M200 and press F2 to select the network. I press F2, but nothing happens, I see the Toshiba logo but nothing happens... If I press on enter, then come back to FreeDOS...

    Also on the second link, I tried to start from the point 1. But in point 5, the word:

    Unzip the contents of "BFD package full v1.0.7.zip" in a temporary directory. Open a command prompt and navigate to the temporary folder. Run the command "bfd msnet" in order to create the startup disk.

    I don't have a floppy drive. They tell me to run bfd.msnet from the command. Cmd.exe command is? If Yes, what should I type in to get bfd.msnet run?
    ---------------

    I knew that installation would be very difficult and I kindly ask for personal assistance. If you can speak German, it would be nice to answer in German.

    Up to now
