• Portege M700: Cannot use the fingerprint reader after update for Firefox 3

  Hey

  I have a Toshiba Portege M700 Tablet and with the truesuite software on a fingerprint reader and password Bank plugin.

  It's all working fine and dandy with firefox 2.
  Then last night I went and updated for firefox 3 and now I can't log in to Web sites with the fingerprint reader.

  No error messages, nothing. I can say that the truesuite or Bank password software is not detecting firefox 3. I've updated to the latest version that I could find, 2.0.2.0.

  I found this thread by telling me the process of update of firefox it breaks and I should completely uninstall and reinstall firefox, which I did.
  That didn't fix it.

  Then I completely uninstalled and reinstalled truesuite. That did not help either.
  Its still broken.

  Anyone know a workaround or a way to fix this, or should I wait and see if there is an updated version of the password database? (I find it unlikely because this isn't really a standard program)

  Hello

  I think that the new Firefox version is not fully tested and possibly it s not completely compatible with the 3rd party applications.
  I remember the same problems with older versions of firefox. Finally, it has been resolved.

  But why you don t use internet explore? As far as I know the fingerprint works without a problem

  In any case if you want to continue to use the browser firefox 3 so I think that the only solution is to wait for an update.

  Hello

  If you created the recovery disc using the Toshiba recovery disc creator, you get exactly the same operating system that was installed by Toshiba!
  So if the fingerprint worked at first then it should work after using the recovery disk because it the same!

  But as far as I know the old fingerprint software doesn't work with IE8 or Firefox 3.0. Of my knowledge update has not realized yet.
  So it could be possible that updates the MS has muddled something and affected the functionality of fingerprint.

  I read somewhere that a new v.3.0.0.16 from Authentec fingerprint should support the internet browser more recent, but as mentioned above, he must be released in the near future.

• Portege M700 - replacement of the battery - replacement work?

  The existing block will charge is no longer. It's a Li - ion PA3191U-5BRS - 10.8V 4700 mAh. I have a spare battery almost new for my earlier Portege with idenitcal fittings but with 4600mAh 10.8V. It is not a model of Toshiba and said that it was to replace PA3176U-2BRS. Can I use it in my M700 without risk of damage or loss of performance?

  Hello

  To be honest, I doubt that it will work because the requirements are different.
  In your case I Don t try, in the worst case, you destroy the computer.

  It would be better if you buy a new battery with the exact specifications. Service provider authorized in your country may make you an offer for it.

• Portege R100 - question about the installation of the USB port and Windows problems

  Hello

  I just bought a used Portege R100, but I have some problems. Of course the laptop isn't a CD or DVD, player so I tried an external DVD drive, but it did not work. What kind of device I have to install Windows (not an edition of recovery or anything like that, but a whole new windows on the formatted HARD drive)?

  I also have another problem: whenever I plug a USB device (I tried the DVD drive external and a USB keyboard) when I start the laptop, it seems to hang. At least, I am not able to type anything more; the keyboard of the laptop is dead (the point where the entrance would still be flashing in the BACK platform, but typing. sth on the keyboard isn't doing anything). It is not normal, is it?

  I also tried to get to the BIOS, but I tried various commands (F1 to F12, DEL etc.), but I couldn't access the BIOS. It would be great if someone could tell me the command for it.

  Thanks in advance for the help and sorry for the bad English, I'm not a native speaker :)

• Portege R100: Question on the maximum size of HARD drive

  Hello

  I understand the internal player on the R100 is an ATA5 (Enhanced IDE), I've only used the IBM (now HGST) readers, they do a decent-sized on ATA6 disc, I guess, it will take the player that will support ATA5 as the controller on the R100 is ATA5 only.

  As for the size, what is the maximum size can I ride in this unit?

  The orginal is 5.4 width x depth x 7.9 height 8 mm. Can I assume all 1.8 inch drive will fot or is it a mine field?

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  AFAIK the R100 was delivered with a 30GB and 40GB HDD.
  I found an info that the hard drives are compatible:

  HDD1422: Width (mm) 54.0; Height (mm) 5.0 0.15; Depth (mm) 78.5 0.3

• Portege M700-130 + Portreplicator + external display

  Hello

  We have a Portege M700-130 with the PA3508E-1PRP portreplicator and have a problem with the external display (monitor) connected to the portreplicator.
  The OS is Vista Business. The external monitor is an EIZO S2401WE-GY.

  Now the question:
  * Can you just place your Portege in the portreplicator, start it with the key to the portreplicator and get an image on the external monitor to the connection of the operating system image without doing anything on your laptop? *
  It would already help us if someone with the Portege even and a portreplicator can give us his experience about it.

  Because we can't, but we have absolut want to achieve or better should. We have tested all the settings in the power and hardware configuration options. The point is: when the Portege gets started without portreplicator and is remplace replaced offshore in the portreplicator, then began with the portreplicator the external monitor goes black when loading of the connection of the operating system image. Only after that the laptop screen is fliped open, we get an image on the external monitor.

  Help or an answer, I'd be very appreciated. Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  One of my friends has tested this on the Portege M700 Vista OS.
  It connected the external monitor using a VGA (analog) and DVI port.

  It seems that it works as you suggest in your ad.
  The Portege lid is closed and connected to the external monitor.
  You do not need to touch the Portege M700. He should start by pressing the key of the duplicator.

• Hibernation and Novatel Wireless Mobilink - Portege M700

  Hello!

  I have a little problem with my UMTS through Novatel Wireless Mobilink connection. If I establish a connection and my Portege M700 leads in the idle state (hibernation), I can't establish a connection after the idle state longer. It seems that the UMTS device would be disabled.

  The button to connect/deconnect-in MobiLink is disabled.

  Does anyone have similar experiences?
  Maybe someone can give me a tip?

  Hmm I m not a protégé M700 owner and I don t use the 3G connectivity, but I read about the problems of Hibernate with Win Vista and XP
  In my case I couldn't t connect WiFi after the reactivation of hibernation.

  My solution was; Windows update, updated the driver WLan, updating the BIOS and disable the option in the properties of the energy saving device.

  That's all I can suggest...

• Portege R400 - how to get the fingerprint device to HDD unlock

  Portege R400 model PPR40E-00901LEN

  I've had this laptop since 2007 new (approximately). I put the BIOS and disk passwords HARD and the biometric to unlock the BIOS, HARD and Vista drive. It worked well until recently. Result of an incident when someone tried to crack into the machine, it unlocks is no longer the HARD drive

  The attacker confessed to the use of BACKSPACE to work around the footprint digital, correctly guessed the password of BIOS and going on to make several attempts to enter the HDD password.

  Now when I try to access the computer by using the fingerprint reader, it unlocks the BIOS ok, so he remembers clearly to me. However, it is not open HARD drive. Apparenlty the fact that 3 + failures to enter the master password disk HARD text forces text of this password and no biometric entry. At least, there seems to be something like that.

  My questions are

  (1) in these circumstances, the BIOS anterio-rite the biometric to forget the HARD drive password?

  (2) or is still piometric my disk HARD but the BIOS password feature is not asking him?

  (3) if 3 or something similar, so this password is always in the biometirc device, how to tell the device to provide this password?

  Please note that I can't in the BIOS right now, because do not unlock the HARD drive prevents the POSITION to perform.

  Of course, I know what I really need to do is type the HARD drive password. Unfortunately in about four years, I forgot it. I hope that I can get into the BIOS if I remove the HARD drive physically, but wonder if there is something else I should do first in order to avoid making things worse.

  Thanks to hope

• Portege M700 - DVD drive fails during the recording of discs

  Hello

  I tried the Disc Creator that came pre-installed and also Nero 9.2.6.0. All this on Vista 32 bit.

  The latter seems to have no idea about the problem, as it says smething like unknown failure.

  The creator of disc mentions error code 380381-26-BF040304.

  The problem occurs only at the beginning, I tried with three discs, so I don't think that the disks are the problem. In any case, they are DVD + R DL Verbatim and support up to 8 x, while the recorder goes only up to 4 x for the double layer, so I think I'm ok.

  My suspicion is that maybe the firmware in the DVD version needs update... He mentions Hw 1.00, 1.10 Fw. Other manufacturers of laptop as offer updated firmware DVD for her, but I couldn't find one of TOSHIBA.

  Any ideas?

  See you soon

  Hello

  There are several disks for Portege M700, they are compatible. Usually in the user manual, you can find a list of supported CD/DVD players they are pre-tested by Toshiba and work correctly.

  If you have any other questions about a new drive, ask the service provider authorized in your country. They can offer you a compatible player.

• Re: Inaccurate cursor when using the stylus on Portege M700 Tablet mode

  Hello

  I was struggling with my stylus for a few months. When I use it, the cursor is just the tip, when I'm in the corners (where the calibration takes place). More central that I get on the screen, more it is. We're talking about half a centimeter, which does not seem a lot, but that can be a real pain if you try to write or draw on the screen.
  The tragic part is that it started AFTER I used the tool of calibration for the first time. If I had known that it makes things worse, I would not have touched him.
  My question is: is there anyone out there with the same problem, or is it unique? If this is the case, I'll have a conversation with my dealer after I go home.

  If it is not unique, how this was dealt with?

  My laptop is a Portege M700, with Windows Vista Business SP1. This issue has been consistent through all kinds of situations, hardware configurations and software content, and the starting point was obviously the calibration.
  I thank in advance anyone who can shed some light on this for me.

  Best,
  Oliver

  You're calibrating with the stylus on an angle?

  Try it with the completely vertical stylus.
