• Portege M400 - Toshiba Flash Cards crashes on Vista

  Toshiba Flash Cards crashes on Vista when windows is configured to use the standard color scheme "windows" under appearance settings, (for your information, I prefer to use this mode, vista runs faster, uses less energy and less ram system in this mode).

  However, he does not plant immediately, on the contrary, it seems to crash whenever I flip the screen (which happens quite often that I m using a tablet pc) with the version previous software it crashed at startup but which seems to have been fixed with this version, although not completely, but when it blocks it completely will not close even if I force the Task Manager to end the process (rather than just the) Task).

• Portege M400 - how to install utilities for Windows 7 Toshiba?

  I have improved my Portege M400 Winows 7 (32 bit), which went well. However, impossible to find out how to get and install the utilities that I included with XP Tablet version.

  Can anyone suggest how to get (I understand that they were available for Vista)?

  TIA.

  Kris

  Hello

  The Toshiba utilities do you mean are designed only for Windows XP. On Windows Vista and Windows 7, you need only the Toshiba value added Package. This package contains everything you need.

  Portege M400 doesn't support Windows 7, but you can try installing the Vista drivers. Most of them are also work on Windows 7.
  AFAIK, you must also Support Button Toshiba on this model.

• Portege M400 - how to remove the condensation of water?

  I received a second hand toshiba portege m400 mail and saw there probably a condensation of water trapped between the external display and touch screen behind her. because the screen in the upper left corner looks whitish. and the sender of the laptop said he wasn't there when he sent it. I have a picture of trapped moisture, for those who want to see it.

  so, I opened the screen by unscrewing. and I saw that most of the moisture is stuck between the external screen glas and one other layer behind him, which I guess, is the part of the touch screen. who looks inaccessible. These 2? the layers form the upperpart of the screen.

  the lcdscreen with all the electronics in this layer, form the lower part of the screen or if you want, cover. This part is now oke. He also had a condensation of water on it and I was able to gently wipe the little moisture of the lcdscreen without problem. This helped a bit with this problem.

  but moisture remains trapped between the part of the touchscreen layer and this layer of glass in the upperpart of the screen/cover.

  hoping to evaporate the moisture, I left the enlightened a bit more open for a day, I broke even the upperpart and the lowerpart of the screen. I applied a little of an infrared lamp, a remote backup heat. anything that did not help.

  * so, how can I remove the condensation of water? *

  * is there a way to remove a layer in the upperpart of the screen to reach the humidity? *

  Hello olekike

  Please don t get me wrong, but I'm afraid, you need professional with this Mr. help as I see that your question is not answered for days now, and I think that nobody here has a lot of experience with this stuff.
  View replacement OK but how to remove the condensation of water on the touchscreen is perhaps too heavy for us.

  I recommend strongly to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help. talking with the guys what we can do about it.

• Portege M400 - how to remove the Protector Suite fingerprint data

  Hi all

  (1) Protector Suite 5.4 sometimes generated a crash of Windows XP on my Portege M400.

  (2) I followed the suggestion of WinXP and upgraded to version 5.8. Unfortunately, this way I lost the automatic access features to Web sites protected by (the online help 5.8 says that this module is optional, but I have not found how to install it).

  (3) so I uninstalled the 5.8 and put again on the 5.4.

  (4) in the event of a disaster.

  (5) it is clear that the fingerprint data, updated to 5.8 format, are still somewhere in the system. Uninstalling Protector Suite's not destroy them. For this reason the 5.4 original does not do something, because in its user opinion data are corrupted. First of all, I can't remove/change data user from inside the program.

  So, please, let me know where these data of fingerprints damned are so I'll be able to remove and Protector Suite from scratch.

  Thanks in advance.
  PEI

  Hello

  I think there must be a folder or files storing fingerprints
  But I m not sure where it is placed

  However, as far as I know, you can use ONLY PS to enrol fingerprints.
  Have a look here:
  http://img22.imageshack.us/i/protectorsuite.gif/

  There is an option that can cancel the stored fingerprints.

  If uninstalling the software didn't help then use and clean the BONES and using a tool, for example, the registry CCLeaner.
  It deletes all files and data on the HARD drive (in the registry) which have not been removed by Windows.

• Portege M400 - How can I take it apart?

  Hi all

  Im having problems with my second hand M400 heat. Now, the former owner told me that Toshiba has changed the motherboard once.

  Given that temperatures are high and the fan runs almost all the time even if theres no CPU usage and its im limited down, thinking the power have made a mistake at the toshibas during reassembly of the unit. Maybe they forgot the screw grease or dindn can't heat from the heatsink down properly or therelike. And the fan dosent sound very healthy compared to my other M400, the elderly.

  If someone of you has never disassembled a M400? How do you get on the radiator, top or bottom of the unit? fragile or delicate parts? that I should look out? Y has even a how-to with pictures over there in the depths of the internet? : D

  I have built and repaired many workstations, so im quite computer savvy, but on laptops I only changed RAM so far. So im really thankful for all your advice.

  Thank you

  Hello!

  I think the best way is to contact you the ASP.

  Disassemble a laptop is a bit tricky. You should remove a lot of screws and parts and so this should only be done by a technician of the laptop.

  Maybe you can find a work around using Google, but a laptop computer technician can help you more.

• Portege M400 - update Bios 3.8 installation (Vista)

  Hello.

  I just installed a new hard drive and VISTA (lack the Toshiba HDD Recovery section - still don't know don't know how to do)

  In any case, I managed to successfully install VISTA. (Trick was to install Raid divers in the installation process)

  UPDATE THE BIOS
  Current BIOS 1.6

  I want to update my BIOS to version 3.80 (Latest)
  I downloaded the BIOS 3.80 files BUT it does not load.

  1. I don't have a floppy drive :(

  (2 I tried burinng a CD ISO) Bot I couldn't get it from the CD (I have a Toshiba CD Extenal Drive and do not know if it can boot from CD)

  3. I tried to run the launcher and install via Windows BUT received an error message 'NOT' supported on THIS COMPUTER

  I think that the pitcher can only run in XP not vista.

  Are there steps miss me... What I have to do an incremental update of BIOS and how can I install it without floppy or CD-Rom Bootable drive?

  > 1. I don't have a floppy drive
  You n t need a floppy drive because the BIOS Toshiba focuses on the victory of BIOS and not traditional BIOS and this means that you must run the update of the BIOS while the OS is running.

  > . I tried to burn a CD from the ISO), but I couldn't get it from the CD (I only have a CD external Toshiba drive and do not know if it can boot from the CD)
  As mentioned above this BIOS update may be run during execution OS! It s BIOS based on the victory!

  > 3. I tried to run the launcher and install via Windows BUT received an error message 'NOT' supported on THIS COMPUTER
  You have selected an update of the BIOS that supports this laptop or you need to run this update by using the Windows OS pre-installed Toshiba.

  > What I have to do an incremental update of BIOS and how to install without floppy or CD-Rom Bootable drive?
  Not possible-> see point 1 and 2

• Portege M400: How to change the size of the graphics memory 945GM?

  Hello

  Is anyone know how can I limit the minimum and maximum graphics memory on 945 GM Graphics Card (M400).
  My goal is to put FIXED to 128 so that I don't have freezes when video memory change. It of VERY annoying and punishes my work (Office 2007 is very eager or on video and main memory).

  Thank you
  Filipe

  Hello Filipe

  It will be interesting to know what you mean under punishing work of Office 2007.

  In any case AFAIK on Intel (shared memory) graphics card it is not possible to fix the graphics memory to a specific value (no BIOS settings and also no matter what setting in advanced display settings). If you want to use more RAM for the graphics I recommend you to upgrade RAM.

  Sorry, but I don't see any other solution.

  1.e. weather check the folder named 'SmartFaceV' exists in this folder.
  1.f. If the file exists, this means that you have installed, s/w face recognition even if it is not configured to use, skip step 2 and GO to step 3.
  1.g. Else if the file did not exist, this means that the software is not installed, if it does GO to step 2.

• Portege M400 - how to get a higher score of Windows 7 CPU?

  CPU model is T5600 who may not be so weak. I am so confused and I have try several times, the score is 2.9 even lower.
  Can someone tell me what I can do to get a higher score?

  Furthermore, I also did PCmark05 test and the CPU score was only from 1999. I'll run.

  Thank you very much for your help!

  Hello

  To be honest, don't forget the Windows partition and all the benchmark tests.
  Or, why is it so important to you? You have a problem with your laptop?

  I can give you an example: a friend of mine has a Qosmio X 300. A very cheap and fast laptop computer with CPU Core 2 Extreme, 4 GB SLI graphics system. It uses Vista x 64 and that it put only the performance index Windows 4.9 points.

  Also I m not interested in evaluation tests because I put t need so I m happy with my laptop.

  In any case, make sure that all Windows updates are installed and try again. But it's not really important that score.

  Good bye
