• Problems of subsequent update on Portege M400 and W7

  I did a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit on my Portege M400 and it looks particularly pretty good.

  However, I do not have a utility to map the buttons (including the one that indicates the landscape/portrait orientation has changed). Who would be on the Toshiba Software Installer for Windows 7 (tsi4win7.exe)? Attempt to run that flashes a dialog box before displaying a second dialog box saying "this device is not manufactured by Toshiba or the BIOS is not Windows 7 compatible. No update will take place."

  I check that the BIOS was not serious for WIndows 7 before making the instalation. Trying to apply the latest version of the BIOS gives an error message "[error] BIOS update is not supported. No support for operating system or service pack is installed. »

  Can anyone help?

  As much I know Portege M400 only is not supported for Win7. If you can not find drivers and tools specific to Toshiba for this model of laptop.
  I'm sorry.

  The only thing you can try is to install stuff for other models supported, in the hope, it works well.

• Portege M400: RAID1 Vista works now

• Portege M400 and 3.60 BIOS

  Ubuntu Linux running on the M400 and it seems that almost all BIOS version 3.60 prerequisite are broken because there are errors of the quirk on the CPU APIC. Perhaps Microsoft could circumvent the APIC tables broken for awhile but things with Linux is a bit bulky. Microsoft asked to Toshiba for a BIOS update to address these issues and it seems to be fixed from 3.50.

  See here

  Even under Linux not more APIC errors appear. :-) But after the update from 3.60 BIOS splash screen remains active and keeps me to select an option for a boot (grub) multi entry. If the OS is already from the start screen become white first, then gives finally control the operating system. Others see this as well?

  I am able to select something in my Start menu, but it is more guess the start screen is always at the top. Very annoying it :-(

  Another issue I have is that sometimes the system freezes for a few seconds and then continues, nothing to see in the logs when you use a Tablet Ubuntu or Windows XP Home edition. So might be a bug in the BIOS once more. Yet once you are looking for confirmation, other know about this as well.

  Reflash 3.60 a couple of times, but seeing this behavior over and over again.

  Although it seems to be some control fan in 3.60. He does not like a DC9 aircraft, but were still not silent like the 1.80W or the 2.10N of BIOS versions. Nice to see these fan noise changes incorporated in 3.60 and later

  Hi Robert

  I know you hate me, but the fact is that Portege M400 has sticker next to the keyboard and it says something like designed for Microsoft. With short words: Linux OS is not supported.

  If you need help with Linux on Toshiba laptops please check http://newsletter.toshiba-tro.de/main/index.html

  Question about freezing is very strange and if you want to check properly install recovery without additional software image. In this case you will have factory settings and clean the preinstalled operating system. If you notice some outstanding questions, you must contact authorized service partner and clarify this point.

  Good luck!

• Portege M400 and Autocad2007

  I can not change the color or thickness of a layer using the dialog box. You can select a new color/line thickness, but the change is not executed. It works on my desktop computer. I think that it is a video driver issue. Does anyone have a solution?

  Hello

  Well, it seems that there is a newer version of the AutoCAD application.
  Maybe it s just a matter of adjustment. I m not an AutoCad expertise but check the Toshiba page driver and compare versions of display driver.

  I also recommend to ask for support for the production of AutoCad.

• Portege M400: Why am I not asked a password at startup?

  Hello

  I have a Portege M400 and I used the Toshiba security software help put in place a the BIOS boot password, but also a protection of HARD drive password. This software, as well as the true BIOS (Esc + F1 at startup) show that the password I set is recorded or recognized.

  However, I'm not really asked any of these passwords when I start the computer.

  I have a system to dual-boot with the original WinXP for Tablet PC on one of the partitions and one Feisty Ubuntu on another. My boot loader is GRUB, but I do not understand why this should affect the behavior of the BIOS which should arrive before calling the bootstrapper...

  Can someone help me with this? It would be really important for me to protect my BIOS and the hard drive.

  Thanks in advance,
  dsokus

  1. check your security settings with password for Toshiba utility. Are these these configured correctly?
  2 you have the user or supervisor password? If you only set the supervisor password that you are not prompted for the password.
  3. try to put the HDD and user pw in the initial bios setup (press ESC when prowering on).

• Portege M400 - CPU cooling problem

  Last year, when I had used my Portege M400 for 2 years, he started the deadlock occasionally. Sometimes [I couldn't even start it | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjNa8-c2Aro]. With cut and try the method I found the problem. The Spring wire which clasps the CPU radiator, it was with not enough force:

  http://Zorko.ru/assets/files/534/534/170720102589.jpg

  The problem was solvable by Berry to the claws spring begins to apply more force hugging the radiator of CPU:

  Apply a new layer of thermal grease has been useful as well:

  However, the solution works for only a few weeks. And then (especially if it's hot outside) the story begins again.

  Any suggestions how to solve the problem once and for all? Thank you.

  Hi Greendrake,

  It s really great that you are interested in your Portege M400 and you can remove it. It of really not easy and so this cannot be the people with a lot of experience.

  Anyway, as you know here our forum user s only. This means that you can speak with normal people like you and me. I would recommend therefore to contact a service provider authorized in your country. Maybe the guys know this problem or something else or you need a thermal grease special because not all compatible thermal greases all cooling.

  By the way: on the Toshiba site you can find a list of all service providers.

  I hope it helps. :)

• Portege M400 - new HARD drive retains the old HARD drive password?

  I have a Portege M400 and I want to move my current hard drive with a new one.
  My current hard drive is password protected (I know the password).
  My questions are:

  If I switch to a new hard drive, a new retains the old password or not?

  Can I use the old drive with an external enclosure as an external drive, or it is impossible?

  I already tried to delete the password for hard drive with the methods presented on this forum by going into the BIOS, but version 3.8 has no option to remove the HDD password and I think that it is impossible to remove it.

  Please answer only if you have experience in cases like this, I don't want to spend money on the new hard drive and not be able to use as primary.

  Hey Buddy

  Please check this thread:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?MessageID=141590

  You can remove the HDD password (if it s you known) in the BIOS.
  In the field "User password" tab and just enter the old password. If you do want to set the new password, and then press "Enter".

  See you soon

• Portege M400: click right button on the pen does not work

  Hello

  I can't button right-click on the barrel of the pen to work with my new Portege M400 tablet PC. I tried with the option 'Use the stylus buton click-right' in the 'Pen settings' tab 'settings in Tablet and stylus' dialog checked and unchecked, but none worked.

  Is the stylus defective, or worse still the computer? Or can anyone suggest how to operate?

  Thank you

  Toby

  PS: "pen" should be "nep" reversed in option, tab and dialog names above, but the silent filter profanity does not accept the word "nep" (reverse).

  Hello

  You have this problem since the first day? Please remember that the pen is not in a very long distance from the screen. As you know if the distance is too great the pen will not work as usual.

• White screen to update the Portege M400 firmware after waking from sleep state

  Why this topic has been closed? http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=19803&MessageID=74193

  I just wanted to add that this update does NOT resolve the problem in vista and it is NOT a driver problem. The update will not install in vista and vista is already provided with videoprt.sys 5.1.2600.2911.

  When it occurs, the laptop again indeed. You can manipulate and even hear the sounds, but the backlight does not come on or there is no output from the video card. I'm fairly certain that it is a signal of hardware problem.

  No matter what laptop I, euro or us, could someone please tell me the file so that I can look at what changes actually code?

  Hello

  > Why this thread has been closed?
  I think that the admin closed this thread because, as indicated by the user lumix2day the MS update has solved this problem.

  The M400 was delivered with Win XP it's why the update should work with Windows XP!

  Regarding your question.
  Looks like you are using your own copy of Vista on the M400.
  You should check if Vista is already up to date. Each week the new MS updates are published.

  Additinally, I recommend updating the BIOS and check for a driver update more recent display!

  Best regards
