• Portege M400-103's unstoppable to restart

  I have a portege m400-103 at the end of year 2006.

  A few months ago, I found a trouble - if I reboot the noutbook, then after the detection of material and enter the password nout, turn off the power and from new cycle. Reset of the supply, which happened before the operating system starts.

  After removing the hard drive, turn on, turn off, install hard drive again and power on in 50% starting normally.
  I see the SMART hard disk and bad blocks - all normally.

  And yet another thing - if nout not to restart the nut - all working fine a few weeks without any problem. I close the lid and note go to sleep and waik upward then absolutly fine in a few weeks.

  What can I do with it?

  Hello

  It's a little difficult to understand the detachment, but it seems that the laptop doesn't start correctly sometimes.

  > I see the SMART hard disk and bad blocks
  SMART monitors the HARD drive and provides details if something is not wrong with the HARD drive
  Maybe the problem is related to the HARD drive
  This may be possible

  So I recommend you to check the HARD drive. Maybe the laptop would serve using a new HARD drive

• Portege M400-103 starts very slowly

  My new M400-103 seems slow. I have another unit & even though it was a solo processor it still compares favourably in speed for example starting up my new machine.
  I saw that part of the problem may lie with all programs util that Toshiba load in standard at the start, but surely with the mobile dual-core processor is still faster.

  I put the power to FULL POWER management, etc., but does not have a big difference. I see some comments posted to talk about withdrawal of Toshiba OS & re-installign Windows XP, but I'd rather not do & rather settle the existing operating system if possible.

  Has anyone else had a similar experience. The touchpad on the M400 seems also more finicky about others using touch, maybe that I still need to get used to it?

  Hello

  As you have already mentioned with computers laptop Toshiba uses a lot of specific applications to control all the features on the phone.
  If you want to use all the features of the laptop if you need applications. It's done.

  To my knowledge the Portege supports a large number of new generation, applications such as the Toshiba tablet software utility of rotation protect suite, protection of HARD disk and so on

  Of course if you do not use this feature, you can remove it. I think then the laptop would boot much faster.
  In addition, on many laptops the Norton Anti virus is activated and this utility slows down the startup procedure. This problem appears also on my laptop. The anti-virus application loading take about 45 sec.

  OK, you laptop uses a Dual Core CPU, but this is not really a reason to start much faster.

  PS: Do you know an application called bootvis or something like that? This application monitors the initialization procedure and is able to make it faster.

• Picking and Portege M400 displacement causes the crash and locking of the

  I have a new problem with Portege M400, which began a few days ago.

  If I pick it up or move it, then it will crash or lock up. I wonder if anyone has any idea as to what may be the cause of this and what can be done?
  My only guess is to replace the hard drive?

  Thank you
  Greg

  > Turn off accelerometer does not help. Internet research indicates that it is possible a motherboard problem. Replacement motherboard solves problems for about 6 months to a year, then it returns.

  I doubt that it could be a motherboard problem, what the gbaniseter say this happens when it pick up or move the m400, then it will crash or lock up.
  This seems to be a problem of HARD drive and it s nothing uncommon who, after a long period of use of the disk HARD start HARD drive malfunction is a sensitive device and can die because of the physical restraint
  Replace the HARD drive and check if the problem would happen!

• Portege M400: cannot copy the files on the disk HARD - can't see any of my files in Word

  I bought the M400 a few weeks ago. There are a number of problems. Adobe reader gives "an internal error has occurred", manual installation of download gives "error occurred in the file zip", download or copy of the files on the hard disk gives error "there is no space" when there are only 8 gig used from 60 GB. Now, I don't see any of my files in Word.

  I can also copy the files from the cd or DVD. I'm in canada mississauga on Horus, usually resident in the United Kingdom, so I'm in a precarious situation because I can't in my office to sort out the issues.

  Can someone advise me please why all these problems are happening, do I have to use the recovery disk? Baz

  > Forgive me but how to put the hard drive in business.

  I think that the Johnny means that you connect the HARD drive to another computer using the external USB HDD controller. These external USB HDD cases can be purchase in every store of the computer.

  However, if you n t need data that are placed on the HARD drive, you could simply start installing the OS from the recovery CD. This will format the whole HARD drive and install the new operating system as well as all the drivers, utilities and software further.

• Portege M400 than all the drivers and the necessary XP Recovery

  Hi people,

  I just bought a Toshiba Portege M 400 without software.
  Any package of all frivers you need is available?

  I tried to get all the drivers of several necessary, but installing caused my system to collapse.
  Thus, Toshiba does not provide a complete software package of /driver for its laptops?

  Kind regards

• Portege M400 connected to the WiFi router, but not the navigation of Web pages

  Hello

  I use M400 laptop computer series that I bought in 2005 and do not know if the guarantee was already finsihed, although I paid extra for an extended warranty.
  You should check a second time.

  My wireless connection was working fine with my conection DSL broadband 2 years ago, I was using router Netgear wireless. In the last 2 years that I did not use wirless conection, recently I bought Thomson TG585 router to my ADSL connection wireless broadband. This wireless router works fine with my other Mac desktop computer but my laptop is not browse a Web page if it says connected with WiFi router.

  I went through all the settings and even I have discussed this question with the technical team bradband and say there is problem with my computer laptop bcz Mac Desktop works fine.

  I checked in the wireless troubleshooting setting and still not able to solve this problem.
  I use KesperKey Internet Security and I tried to turn it off for the test connection wireless but always face same problem.

  I wonder if anyone can help me?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Disable all the security settings on your router and then try to connect the M400 protected wireless.
  If you will be able to connect to the WLan and will be able to navigate a few s webpage you could activate step by step all the security settings such as encryption of WLan, Mac address filtering, SSID hidden, etc.

  By the way; Have you tried to update the driver WLan?

• I use the same URL in day after day tabs/windows, but am not ure if this version will restore all tabs on restart the computer every morning?

  I don't think I can give more info

  8 and 9 Firefox Firefox will allow me to continue with the same tabs from last session as in Firefox 3? :

  You're on Firefox 3.6.24 and if you ask if the new version 8.0.1 will do the same the answer would be Yes and it continues to be controlled by tools > Options > general > when Firefox starts: show my windows and tabs from last time.

  From Mozilla Firefox 4 (earlier this year), has presented app-tabs that you might want to listen to the video and read when standing up. Since you're using the same tabs they are probably in the same order, day after day after day, so just see the favicons on tabs and the model about whether something will not like order or missing.

  Since you use the tabs and windows as in earlier versions, the change will affect you probably even the least. But Mozilla has improved this which exists of sessions were closed, the windows and tabs via the menu ('Alt + H') history.

  What you probably will not tolerate changes to toolbars, based on studies of imperfect ergonomics (like Microsoft). You can fix it right and make the toolbars close to what you had before (instructions below).

  You can make Firefox 8.0.1 look to Firefox 3.6. *, see numbered 1-10 Articles of the topic following the interface user of difficulty Firefox toolbar, problems (make Firefox 4.0 through 9.0, resemble 3.6). If you make changes, you must be aware of what has changed and what it takes to use changed or missing features.

  It is much more beyond these first 10 steps in the list, if you want to make Firefox more functional.

• Portege M400 - cannot use full 4 GB of RAM

  I installed two modules of KTT667D2 / 2G on my laptop (Portege M400-103, part No. PPM40E - 012018 G 3) - total do 4 GB. However, the two original Windows XP Tablet and Ubuntu 9.04 are unable to see all 4 GB - they see 3.2 GB only.
  The BIOS displays the amount properly - 4096 Mb.
  I also tried to solve the problem of updating the BIOS to the latest version (3.80, 30/05/08), but two operating systems (Windows and Ubuntu) see still 3.2 GB only.
  Any ideas? Thank you.

  > However, as well original Windows XP Tablet and Ubuntu 9.04 are unable to see all 4 GB - they see 3.2 GB only.
  That s nothing unusual!
  That s a limitation of 32-bit. All operating systems 32-bit (no matter if it is Vista, XP or Linux) can manage 3.2 GB max.
  Only a 64-bit OS might be able to use and recognize more than 3.2 GB of RAM

  You should read a few articles about 32 bit OS and 4 GB RAM problem.

  See you soon

• You just bought stolen Portege M400!

  On 27 October, I bought Toshiba Portege M400-103 (part number PPM40E-01201CRU, store in Moscow). It was new in box (but not waterproof). Then I registered it to Toshiba 3-year warranty. They asked for proof of purchase, I provided it (reception and cash-memo and a photo of the label on the package), and then, they confirmed my warranty.

  Yesterday, when they surf on this site, I found the link to the database of stolen laptops and checked my serial number. He said that my Portege M400 is STOLEN!

  If I have a proof of purchase, it is always very embarrassing for me to have such a marked mobile. Should I return it to the store? Should I talk about Toshiba (although, why they confirmed the warranty on a stolen laptop?). What should I do?

  PPM40E-01201CRU is the serial number of portable.
  What you need is the * serial number.

  I checked the database stolen units Toshiba I found on the support page, and there are many units PPM40E-01201CRU with different serial numbers.
  Please check this!

  If your serial number will then contact the service provider allowed in your country and explain this situation!

• Portege M400 - always 100% fan running

  I was pleased to receive my new toshiba portege m400 today, but the noise of the fan is quite bad.
  The problem is that he always runs 100% - I tried the Toshiba power save the properties of
  set the speed of the fan, but nothing is made, it has no effect at all. Also, I tried to put
  all three bios power options (low, full power, user), but that has no effect either.
  Worse still, the cpu temperature is very cool, just 29 degrees, and there is no need
  at all to run the fan at full speed. I guess that the power save utilities are bugged, and I wonder
  If Toshiba will come out with a new version of their tools? Is there something I can do?

  Thank you

  PS. the version of the bios 1.30, toshiba power save tools 7.08.00. The processor speed is dynamic, generally at 1 ghz and
  the temprature is very low.

  Hello

  Try to clean the cooling modules. You can use the vacuum.
  In addition, you must use the laptop in the places where fans can suck the air out without any problem.

• Portege M400: Cannot install windows XP

  Hello

  My friend gave me his Toshiba Portege M400 (PPM40E) at the table of settings windows XP (HHD is already formatted copmletely).

  Before that I've never worked with SATA controller

  So, when installing RAID drivers are required for any HDD lying.
  I bought the USB floopy and downloaded some drivers from Intel.

  Having suffered a bit, I found requireded (as I thought), hard disk drivers detected (even the license agreement I signed) but that pilots still needed to proceed with the installation.

  IF someone faced this problem can you send me on my e-mail ([email protected]) required drivers or give me an exact link?
  Looking forward to your advice.

  Thank you for understanding,
  Best regards from Russia
