Problem with the software Modem on Satellite Pro L40

I tried to set up a connection Dial-Up Networking on a Satellite Pro L40 running Vista and can't get the modem to talk to the modem from the ISP. The connection appears OK and then you can hear the modem dial, but when the ISP picks up there is a bit of yelling and then my modem abandons the connection and I get the standard vista connection failed box.

Things I've tried:
-latest drivers for the 2.1.77.0 modem (and the rest of the system) downloaded from Toshiba and installed OK
-all the updates of windows installed
-removal of the modem in the Manager of peripherals and re - install
-suppression of the agrsmdel.exe and then re-install
-try different cables to plug into the phone jack
-several different ISPS and phone numbers
-reduce the maximum speed of the connection
-connection to the same ISP with my Satellite L10; works very well never have time!
-using the windows to diagnose and repair the tool (set last resort!); says that the modem works fine and can not find a problem with the connection

Is it possible that the update of the BIOS on the laptop would make a difference (currently v 1.60)? I did some research on Google and found messages on various forums, which suggests that the connection between the motherboard and the modem chip is a little doubtful for all the Agere Soft Modem; If the case is it something I can fix myself or I should go for warranty repair?

Hello

I'm sure that there is no problem with your modem, but with the configuration or even s ISP modem. I recommend you to speak with the support of the ISP.

  • Problems with the graphics card on Satellite Pro M10

    Hi, this is my first post on the forum. I'm not a pro with computers or anything... the problem I have with my laptop is similar to the one in this thread:

    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=26849&TSTART=0

    I spent half the day trying to figure out if my graphics card is broken, but since I'm a newbie with this stuff, I'm still not sure. :(

    This is what makes my M10. I'm trying to describe the symptoms that detailed as possible, but I'm German, so please excuse my lack of words in some places.

    1. when I turn it on, the laptop goes through the BIOS and give me scrambled BACK-screens and a slightly Warped windows loading bar. There is the consistency check, marked by black bars connecting the top of the screen down. After the audit, the screen goes black and nothing happens, or the screen of will just show me consistency check, do nothing. Be that as it may, I have to turn off the power (I think) and restart the laptop.

    2. sometimes the laptop goes through the BIOS checking & conistency with a few graphical shortcomings. The office is anything but shredded when he gets to the screen of the Windows user. The static method is if serious I don't even know where is the button turn off.

    3. sometimes Notepad starts very well, with the only graphic problem being the windows loading bar. When I go into Windows, the laptop pulls me a blue screen and stops immediately.

    4. sometimes, the laptop works fine for about an hour or two. After I rebooted, I have the same problems listed above, once again.

    5. If I open Device Manager and disable the graphics card, the laptop works very well. I have to lower the screen resolution and colors, but I can watch videos on youtube and everything. Finally, the laptop gets very hot on the bottom and the screen goes crazy again, so I turn the damn thing off.

    I don't know what that means! If my graphics card is broken, the screen should be all static, ALL the time? Not just sometimes more,... could sometimes less be some sort of communication problem between the graphics card and cpu? Please help me with this!

    Another thing I'm not sure about, even after reading the thread I linked above - can I replace the graphics card or not? Everyone said something different in the other thread...

    see you soon,
    Cozmo

    Edit: maybe I will add when I got the screen scrambled and everything. I installed Civilization 4, just to check if my satellite pro can handle, and everything went well for a while. The screen then haywire and I rebuilt my whole system, but display problems did not disappear completely. They were gone for almost a month, and now they are 'back' or something.

    Hi Cozmo

    I'm not a technician but here nobody needs technical knowledge to see that there certainly is hardware problem. I also believe that this problem occurs due to the graphics card. Graphics card is part of the motherboard and it cannot be traded separately. The entire motherboard must be exchanged.

    In my opinion, you have two options: either contact the authorized service provider in your country and speak with them, what can be done, or try to get the motherboard used. If you are lucky, you can find it on eBay. I already bought several hardware components for my old Satellite P10 on eBay.

    Sorry Cozmo but I do not see any other logical solution for you.

    Good luck!

  • Strange problem with the module memory series Satellite Pro 4300

    I have a laptop Toshiba satellite pro 4300 series with 64 MB onboard + 64 MB Module and I want to upgrade my memory to 320 MB. I bought two ram of 128 MB each. I removed the 64 MB module and I put a 128 MB module into the slot (A) one, but I saw that the total memory is 128 MB again.

    I removed the module again and I put the second module in the connector (A), but I saw that the total memory is 128 MB again. After that, I put the two modules in my notebook (Slot A and slot B) but I see that the total memory is 192 MB. This means that it recognizes each module as 64 MB as opposed to 128 MB. Dose anyone know why this happens?
    And what do I do about it?

    Thank you.
    [email protected]

    Hello

    Well, I put t know why this happens. It seems that the 128 MB modules are 64 MB modules. I know that it of strange but I have only this explanation. You are 100% sure that both modules of memory 128 MB?
    In my opinion, you should check the bars of memory if they have 128 MB.

  • Problems with the software of fax on 1536dnf

    Hi, I just got a 1536dnf all-in-one, and I have a problem with the software sending faxes. I can fax machine directly, but when I try to send a fax from my computer, I can't even get into the software. I get an "internal error" that there is no device detected. I installed it on my network, so about four different computers can access. I'm running Windows XP SP3 and any other function works fine (I can print to the printer from each computer, send and receive faxes from the printer itself, etc.).  Any ideas why this happens? I found zero documentation or help on this and any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you.   I was using FAX4Word plugin for Word.  It allows to easily print/fusion of fax machines.

    I answered my own question, but others may be interested in:

    I was buy HP printers since the time that first, they came out with the LASERJet House, I waited in line to get one at the then price of $700 or more.  I bought a HP product on average every 3 years after that.   All HP products were excellent quality and easy to use.

    Once I looked at the question of the use of the 1536dnf as a modem, I found that I was MUCH better off just buying a modem from "Zoom" $ 50 for my database driven fax needs rather than trying to send it through the HP.  If it is possible to use the 1536dnf as an intuitely MODEM, it is a solution too complex to simply get a modem to 'Zoom in' $50, which leaves my 1536dnf available for other tasks.

  • Problems with the installation of recovery - Satellite A300D - BSOD

    Hello

    The laptop in question (TOSHIBA Satellite A300D) recently stopped starting (BSoD).

    So, I tried using the recovery disk, but there is no help. What happens is:
    -After about 10 minutes of waiting, the first language menu load, so I click on "next".
    - Then I again click Next and accept the message that my HARD drive will be erased
    - Then I see a cmd prompt that says "try to remove all the letters of partitions possible...". »
    -There is also a minimized command prompt that says something like "RAID failed to initialize."
    -And then nothing happens.

    Is this a hardware problem? I also tried a full installation (instead of recovery), which, even once, is simply not. None of the errors is - it just freezes.

    Any help appreciated.
    Thank you.

    It is not easy to tell what can be the problem, but if you were not able to install the OS by using two different facilities CDs/DVDs, so there must be a problem with the HARD drive.

    The warranty is still valid?
    I mean you can contact the nearest Toshiba authorized service provider and explain the situation. They can swap the HDD and again test the recovery procedure.
    Can you get somewhere 2,5 SATA HDD for testing?

  • Error message "A problem with the cooling system" on Satellite A660

    Hi all

    Hope I can get help here. I got about 5 laptop computers HP after each of them had problems and errors. I got sick of them and so got a refund and bought a high spec A660-1FH.

    The A660 is a great laptop for two days until yesterday when I started having a saying of warning message "a problem with the cooling system has been detected. Please turn off the power immediately and return it for service "."

    The cpu fan works fine you can here it turns and the temperature of the processor i5 - 460 m is around 40 degrees for two hearts - that seems normal to me. I noticed that this happens only when running on battery, and if you switch from eco utility to the power saving mode. Its fine when running on the "balanced" power setting The fan is louder before when this message appears.

    Like its less than 28 days my retailer swapped it for a brand new immediately. Got a new home page, and the same message reappears. Everyone knows this. Like two laptops had this, I was wondering if it is normal that the laptop A660 series or if it was really a hardware problem?

    I tried to update the eco utility and the bios of the laptop, but the two are the latest versions. Can someone help or share if they have a similar problem with their laptop?

    Thank you

    In front of me, I have Satellite A660-13 q (PSAW3E) and I have about 6 weeks now. It works almost 10 hours a day and so far I didn't notice this message or anything that may be suspect for the operation of the equipment.

    I put really know why this happen on your laptop and don t think that there is nothing you can do about it.
    I would trade it again. What you can also try is to contact the closest service Toshiba. Make a call, explain the situation and ask if they can help you with this.

  • Problems with DVD/CD-RW on Satellite Pro M series

    After searching the Forum questions / answers, it seems that many users have problems with the carpet * a 841 s UJ which is equipped with several types of Toshiba portable computers and I wonder why someone from Toshiba has not been able to intervene and to produce a final solution.

    In my case, I can not format a CD - RW or a DVD + RW because the message "D:\ is not accessible" and also "incorrect function".

    If DLA is selected in properties, can be as much as to be shown to a format selection window, but "Format failed due to general failure" happens.

    Toshiba installation CD will work OK (I did this several times after losing data on the hard drive) but the writing seems to be beyond the capacity of the disc.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    BTW, the deletion of "Upper and Lower Filters" registry that I have seen offered as a solution will not work because there is only one entry for low filter - no higher.

    You try to format the two supports using Windows option or using an application like Nero?
    I can't imagine that there is a serious problem with ODD. Test it with Nero. I'm sure it will work properly.

  • I need modem for Satellite Pro L40

  • Where to get the new motherboard for Satellite Pro L40 - 14 d

    Hey there.

    I have a Satellite Pro L40 - 14 d (I think).
    My son hit a small stool and he fell on the side of the PCI Express card (which has been inserted).
    Needless to say that the pci card no longer works.

    I opened it to the top, and it seems that the pins were torn off of the motherboard.
    Can it be fixed, I'm not so sure?

    Then someone know where I can get my hands on a new motherboard? I've scanned the internet but come in white.

    See you soon

    Hello

    This model of laptop is fairly new, and I imagine that it will be difficult to get the new motherboard. Of course, you can order one by authorized service provider, but it will be expensive.

    Have you checked eBay? With a little luck, you'll find a L40 with faulty display or any other hardware problem. Maybe using two defective notebooks, you can have one that works correctly. ;)

    By the way: I assume you want to disassemble without maintenance manuals. Be careful!

  • Satellite P200 - 14 H - problem with the software after reinstalling Vista whindows

    I have a Satellite P200 - 14 H, who bought systems Activ of Romania. I got a Toshiba DVD with an image pre-configured Windows and my driver's license windows vista Home premium. After several blue screens windows crashed after 5 days. It was a software problem. I am a network administrator and I need several virtual machines Linux vmware server Windows.

    The DVD provided with the laptop is not really suited to my needs to reinstall windows because it throws my entire hard drive and is not an option. I took a friend a DVD windows vista Home premium and using my key from the sticker on the back of my laptop I reinstalled win without deleting all of the hard drive but only the partition c. I downloaded all the drivers of your site even if I found them really hard (model PSPB6E because that model PSPB6E I don't find it anywhere) everything is good except that "Flash Cards Support Utility" and «» Hardware Setup' give me the following error: "serial number is invalid '. I don't know what to do to be able to use the function keys I knew which are installed by 'Flash Cards Support utility'.

    If it is not good that I did give me another solution that does not need to wipe entire HARD drive, but only the C drive and use the DVD that you have provided or give me access to some place to be able to download all the drivers and software that can be found on the original DVD (those above and to burn DVD and Norton internet security center and so on)

    Thank you very much and please be so kind to give me a solution quickly because I really need this computer and I am unable to use it.

    Hi Adrian

    I'll try to clarify a few things;
    First the drivers for Satellite P200 - 14 H PSPB6E series are placed on the page of Toshiba Europe and it of really not difficult to find.
    Secondly the Vista serial key, which is located on the bottom of the unit cannot be used with another copy of Vista OS! This will not work!

    You have installed the operating system Vista from the CD to friends, but you used a serial key that does not match with the Vista on CD to friends! As a result, you get the message error "serial number is invalid!"
    The utility of Flash cards is required to use the keys FN under Win Vista. It visually shows the use of the FN button.

    I would recommend another way of installation
    First, you must use the DCD from Toshiba recovery. Back up your data first!
    Then after installing the OS, create a new partition and install your favorite OS (Linux, XP, etc.)

    If you n t to use the Toshiba recovery but CD the original Microsoft CD Vista then you need to use the original series OS key that belongs to the MS Vista CD.

  • Problems with the new modem DSL and Linksys BEFSR41

    My Speedstream modem died and I had to buy a new modem.  At this time of year, it is difficult to find exactly what I wanted and I ended up buying a D-Link DSL - 2320-B.  I got the Linksys BEFSR41 (old version 1, I think) for years and it has always worked well.  I have problems to get an internet connection through the router.  With the modem connected directly to the network card, as now I have no connectivity problem.  I had to change the IP address on the Linksys BEFSR41 192.168.2.1, as the modem is 192.168.1.1, 192.168.0.1 as the old Speedstream.  I couldn't see a way to change the IP Address of the new D-Link.  I have my ICS TCP/IP set to auto obtain IP and DNS.  I was previously created for a fixed IP of * provided by the router.  Even with the setting on the router to "Obtain an IP address automatically", I can't to the internet with the router in the middle.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Your modem is a combination of the modem and the router. The problem occurs when you try to connect another router behind this configuration and end up having 2 servers dhcp and nat 2 (for port forwarding and other issues, creating in some cases where even branded products use ip addresses will clash and devices will not connect at all when him are interconnected).

    To avoid the situation described above, it is recommended that you enable the full Bridge mode on the modem / router that you currently connected to the internet and let your new wireless router controls all the functions within your local network and the internet connection (you must enter all the details in the new router, including Internet service provider username and password).
