Portege M700 keyboard fits into a M400?

Hello

I was wondering if the M700 keyboard could fit into a Portege M400?

Simply because the M700 seems to have a 'standard' layout more than I prefer.

If using the screen in a M700 M400 would work, I would like to move to using the M700 but I don't "downgrade" to 800 x 1280 when I can have 1050 x 1400. Yes, I'm talking portrait.

Thanks for any input.

Joachim

Well the Portege M700 should be equipped with the Toshiba Standard key Layout B5 type.
I discovered that the seller is Darfon and the total number of keys is: 85 (US) 86 (Euro) 87 (Japan)

So I think that the M700 keyboard could be compatible with the Portege M400 because as far as I know that the Portege M700 was delivered with this keyboard.

  • Is it possible to change the keyboard to Portege M700?

    Is it possible to change a U.S. keyboard in a German keyboard at the Portege m700? Is how easy it to change? How much is a German keyboard?

    Are there other differences between a U.S. and a German Version of the M700?

    Ty, welcomes

    It IS possible, and there should be no technical difference between these keyboards. I Don t know if it s very difficult to exchange a keyboard but it shouldn´t be.
    Today I would recommend you to refer to an authorized partner and order this part here. It may be appropriate to ask them to respect the terms of the warranty after replacing such a keyboard by yourself because if damage you something you can lose the warranty on your machine.

  • Portege M700 - Vista operating system factory reset

    Hi guys, I would really appreciate help, please

    :)

    I have a problem with the reset procedure factory on my Toshiba Portege M700 Vista,.

    what I do is the following:

    1 turn off the computer by pressing & holding down the power button
    2. turn power on by pressing the power button
    3. I invite me for the password (BIOS HARD drive), I enter pasword
    4. I press F8 and go into the Advanced Boot Options
    5. Select repair your computer, press enter
    6. I select correct keyboard in pop - up, System Recovery Options after
    7. I connect as a user by entering my password
    8. I select Windows complete PC Restore

    New window appears, saying "Restore your entire computer from a backup" - Windows cannot find a backup on the hard disk or DVD on this computer. The area where I could specify the path to the file is grayed out. It is not that I now have the road, but I guess that there is a hidden with the Vista partition install files that it contains (?)

    "" In a small pop-up screen (on the top one), there is a similar message: "no valid backup locations could be found..."

    In an ideal world, I would use the backup (plant) from the internal hard drive of origin, rather than purchase and waiting for the preservation factory / restore DVD...

    Thank you much in advance!

    Hello

    The explanation is quite simple. For some reason, your laptop can not find recovery saved on your HARD disk image. I can't say why, but this can happen if the recovery image is deleted, removed to another folder, or in the case of modified HARD drive partitions.

    Recovery image is set with the so-called markers and when you start the image recovery Search installation wizard these markers. In the case where the markers are not found, you will get this message on the screen.

    So now you have the problem because the mounting will not work. Only option for you now is to install the original recovery image using recovery media, but I'm afraid you did not create one, right m?

    You must order the original Toshiba restore disk or you can install the version of the OS using the Microsoft installation disc.

    What do you think of all this?

  • Portege M700 Wacom does not respond after hibernation

    I've been using the M700 for two months and I met a very annoying bug. It is not mentioned in this forum so far, but there are other reports on the Internet who mention this problem too. (http://forum.tabletpcreview.com/showthread.php?t=16902)

    * Question: *.

    Tablet is placed in hibernation. When he wakes up, everything seems OK. When you use the stylus or the key functions, that the cursor does not move. Tablet and pen services have not crushed, but there is no link between screen/digitizer and software.

    + Technical support +.
    The series/USB connector is not reset after waking or hibernation is dead the serial connection

    * I tried solutions *.
    So far, I have reinstalled Vista, tried XP (and will stick to it because it's a better OS in many cases) and have reinstalled all kinds of drivers Wacom.

    * What we want *.
    Wacom has also seems to be aware of the problem but says it's a matter of Toshiba. I am impressed with the construction and the quality of the M700 (it is a replacement for my robust but now almost unusable M200 and I have a M400 too, but I never liked it) and this issue is the only glitch I meet.
    I would like to know if anyone else in this forum has experienced a Wacom-coma after the resumption of the hibernation or standby, and if so, if they have found a solution (apart from restarting their PC)

    And I would really like a response from a representative of Toshiba review of this question.

    Hey Buddy

    I m not a M700 owner and, therefore, I can not say much about this issue, but to my knowledge, there are a few different problems with Vista and hibernation mode.
    For example, device high definition audio, screen WLan failed after the resumption of hibernation.
    These issues were definitely Vista problems.

    Installed on Portege M700 Tablet d River was developed by Wacom, I wonder why the guy States that it is a Toshiba issue?  :| (perhaps because this Toshiba laptop s ;)))

    Anyway, you said that you have reinstalled the driver for the tablet of the Toshiba page and updated the Vista of the State. Check the BIOS updated maybe he could improve the functionality

    If this does not work I recommend you contact the ASP to find out if there is a known issue

  • Problem with webcam not fixed with Vista SP1 on Portege M700

    The Vista SP1 does nothing to the failure of Vista to recognize the built-in webcam Portege M700.
    The existing forum thread mark this question as a response, despite the link to the document toshiba mentioning the error messages entirely different from those cited by those of us with problems

    I find it strange that the M700 UK wouldn't have a built in webcam; is it really true?

    Hello

    I noticed a problem with webcam in time early Vista release, but it was linked to the Vista OS stroller and was solved by SP1.

    Sorry, but another problem with webcam into the unknown for me and as far as I know internal webcam works fine also on Portege M700.

    As you already suggested the internal webcam is not available on all Portégé M700 series. Toshiba notebooks, any series, are equipped with different hardware specifications and example to the webcam internal, in the light of the webcam and internal microphone are available on some models.

    Maybe no problem with a webcam, but some Portégé M700 does not really have an internal webcam ;)

  • Portege M700 - problem with Dynadock

    I can not change the resolution on a screen connected Dynadock and cannot save the display settings of all - how to fix this?

    I have a Portege M700 running Vista Professional SP1 - mainly the machine is used as a desktop replacement, connected to a screen Viewsonic 19 "wide through the Dynadock DVI - when it is connected so I have the laptop screen is off and use only the Viewsonic at a resolution of 1440 x 900. I had been bothered by the fact that whenever the resumption of the screensaver, the resolution would drop down to some lower State (I was not able to identify the dimensions he thought he was using but probably 1280 x 800, the default resolution of the internal display).

    I tried to solve this problem with the technical support level 3 without success. I thought I was smart and try to install the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator Driver update that is located on the Intel Web site (if you're just trying to install this software, Vista won't let you, but if you unzip it and manually update the drivers it works). This resulted in the connected screen Dynadock is off completely - no signal! So I uninstalled the drivers, reinstalled the drivers Intel original, but now, I have no the ability to adjust the resolution on the Dynadock login screen - and it is defaulting to something that's not going to (too broad and not high enough)!

    I lived several cycles to uninstall and reinstall the drivers for the graphics card (Mobile Intel 965 chipset) and the Dynadock; I updated the drivers Dynadock with the latest download from the website of DisplayLink, tried all sorts of drivers for the monitors associated with DisplayLink, tried several restorations system (which have all failed, which was also quite disturbing but less than an immediate concern), etc. Through all this, there is absolutely no way to choose the correct resolution of the screen through the display properties (my choices are 800 x 600, 1024 x 768 and 1280 x 800), and even simply activate an additional screen translates to nothing happens - the new settings do not stay after hitting "Accept" or "OK". I thought that I had licked when I realized that I had to uncheck "Extend to this monitor box office" to screen internal laptop - indeed I was then able to choose 1440 x 900 for the Viewsonic and everything was good, but everything came back after reboot. Of course, now when I try to repeat, I am unable to uncheck this box not more for the internal screen (well, actually, I can uncheck, but when I hit "apply" or "OK" it simply gets selected again).

    All this comes after I spent weeks trying to get this machine to work with the port replicator, which also did not work - a problem that appears to be from an incompatibility with Vista display card drivers and the port replicator (would have been nice if it sales had told me that when I bought the thing, but I digress...)

    In any case, it seems, as it is a Vista problem, I've seen this question asked of other portable devices vista and displaylink other advice, but I know it's possible to have a working reasonably OK solution since I've had one before I went and it messed up trying to work perfectly. Serves me right for spend 3 k $ on a machine and expected that it works as described, I guess. If anyone has any ideas... my next step is probably a downgrade to XP Pro, and then if that does not work, I'm tempted to break into pieces. Or, if someone's figured out how to get the port replicator to work with a M700 Vista, which is actually a better option for me...

    Hello Tony

    It's a very long story, but I use Portege M700 with Dynadock DVI (PA3542Y1PRP) and have no problem at all. After reading your ad I tried changing all the display options and I didn t notice something strange. It works well.

    Read your ad I see you tried to install different things and I wonder not to have so many problems. The best solution for you is to install the new OS using recovery image. Do the clean install of OS and install later Dynadock Utility 2.3 c. be careful while installation is running and do not interrupt the procedure of facilities. Make sure that all software components are installed correctly.

    When you start installation Dynadock Utility Dynacock can not be connected. When you see the window where you will be asked to connect Audio device USB connect the Dynadock to the USB port of your favorite. I use the USB port on the back.

    I use the external display to monitor LCD 22 with a resolution of 1680 x 1050. In the settings screen is display number three and when I click on it I can set the resolution to the maximum level (native resolution). The image is perfect.

    I tried the same as you:
    -Set the external display as primary monitor (for computer laptop LCD was OFF)
    -J' have enabled screen saver and tested several times, but the resolution is always the same no changes at all the
    -With these settings, I rebooted the phone several times as well as the resolution was still the same no problem at all

    After reboot, I can see the image on the notebook LCD only, to the point where I have to write the password that I can see the same image on laptop LCD and external monitor. A few seconds later, the image is switched on external monitor only and it is the same thing you want to have. The resolution is the same again (native resolution). No change at all and all seems OK.

    At the end I've switched back to the LCD display only. It is also interesting to procedure. As a first step, you click on display number one and activate extended desktop. After that, you will be able to use the option to change the primary monitor. A little strange to me, but OK.

    So everything works well for me and for you I only see an option. Reinstall Vista, install new utility Dynadock (new installations) and test again.
    One last thing: do not connect Dynadock on different USB ports. Use always the same.

    Bye and good luck!

  • Portege M700: Question on the fingerprint log-in

    Hello

    I have my own Portege M700 today and I decided to perform a clean installation to remove the bloatware.

    Now, I installed an OEM Vista Business 32 bit and I installed all the drivers and software to make it work properly, for all, but a function.

    The connection option.

    How to configure application/toshiba fingerprint utilities into letting me have the option to type my password or drag my finger to log on?

    The default value of the factory were the two options available, but now I'm stuck with only 1 choice, and it bothers me a lot.

  • Portege M700 - spin button does not not in Tablet Mode

    I have a Portege M700 and the spin button does more work when I turn in tablet mode.
    It works when it in portable mode.

    I have the rotation utility of going to secondary landscape and its switching is more and the button on the front of the screen won't it be more.
    I can go into the rotation software and turn it manually.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    If you rotate the portable unit, the screen automatically rotates using the accelerometer?

  • Problems with the Portege M700 command

    I would like to order the Portege M700-S7008 with 2.40 ghz, turbo cache + qwerty US keyboard, which is available on the site of toshiba, based in the United States.

    On my local site toshiba I can only find Portege M700-10O (which no a 2.20 ghz, turbo cache, BE-azerty keyboard), which is certainly not what I want. But the US site has no option to ship international.

    What should I do?

    Hello

    the fact is that the machine with the desired configuration is only available in America. Since Toshiba sells for all countries separate the configurations you have only 2 options:

    1. find a Distributor on google which could help you and sell / send you the machine with THIS configuration

    2. or you can wait some time with obtainig of this machine, maybe toshiba europe will give an offer that you need in a few weeks. Usually (AFAIK) Toshiba europe is not always parallel with their services and offers as other countries. This also applies to other countries such as the Australia, the Canada or Britain.
    I think that little patience and you will get what you want or need.

  • How to put a Portege M700 to full 4 GB of RAM?

    Hello

    I bought a Portege M700 with 1 GB pre-installed RAM and two modules of 2 GB RAM. I could install one of them in the empty slot on the back, but I can't find the second slot (where is the 1 GB pre-installed). Where is he?

    Kind regards
    Phil

    Hello

    I presume that the Portege M700 supports two memory locations, but one slot is user scalable.

    A slot of memory is placed at the bottom of the unit and the other should be found under the keyboard.

    But as I said above that one slot is extensible user and the second location of memory should be upgraded by a technician for laptop.

    I think that you risk losing the warranty if you would remove the keyboard in your own hand.

    That is why don t the risk guarantee and ask the technician to the ASP for the upgrade of memory.

    Best regards

  • Portege M700 - Speed/standdard for new SSD SATA

    Hello
    I would like to by SSD drive for my Toshiba Portege M700-116.

    What dish speed SATA can I buy?

    SATA 1.0 (SATA 1.5 Gb/s)
    SATA 2.0 (SATA 3 Gb/s)
    SATA 3.0 (SATA 6 Gb/s)

    Thank you
    Jan

    Hello

    I'm not quite sure on the SATA specification, but I think that the Portege M700 m supports SATA II HDD controller.
    However, you can install like Sisoft SANDRA hardware diagnostic tools for detailed specifications of controller.

    But SATA is backward compatible, which means that even if you want to use a SATA III SSD, SSD drive would be recognized but speed will be limited to the performance of SATA II.

  • Re: No display on Portege M700

    Hello

    My son put his computer bag stuffed with his laptop Toshiba Portege M700 inside his office (just out of warranty).

    The laptop shows no sign of injury, but on turn it only "all the right noises", but there is no display on the screen. If the laptop is turned on with the charger connected and then some colored vertical bars appear, and then they fill with white, but nothing else.

    We tried to connect an external monitor and pressing Fn + F5 and the vertical bars disappear from the internal screen and it goes totally black, but nothing appears on the external monitor. Pressing Fn + F5 new returns the vertical lines at random on the internal display.

    We have also tried to start the laptop in the Mode menu without failure by pressing F8 during the initialization of the laptop, with or without an external monitor, with or without the Fn + F5, but you cannot get any video on the monitor either internal or external.

    Fact it seems that maybe a connector was dislodged by the shock of the fall, that you think that the laptop is now pushing up daisies?

    Any notice received with gratitude.

    WIBs

    To be honest I n don't know which connector you want to say but there is no pic on external displays to be a serious problem.
    It seems impossible to send the video signal via the video out port.

    It is not easy to offer an accurate diagnosis on this virtual path.
    What do you do now? Try to repair it or what?

    Maybe you should contact Toshiba service and ask for verification. They can run diagnostic tools and tell you what is defective, what needs to be replaced and how much it will be cool. Then you can do what to make the decision.

Maybe you are looking for
