• Where can I find drivers for XP for this Equium L40 - 17M

  Hi all

  Bought a Toshiba Equium L40 - 17 m, but do not like VISTA (hate it infact).

  I would like the downgrade to XP, but before doing so, I want to assure you that I have all the drivers.

  Has anyone done this yet?
  You guys could tell me where I can find the XP drivers for this model?

  your help most appreciated

  CEM

  Hey Buddy

  I wonder if you have checked the European driver of Toshiba page?
  I imagine that you didn t

  Why? Because the XP drivers are available on the page of the driver and it of really not difficult to find ;)

  Equium L40 - 17 m seems to belong to the series of PSL49. Choose this series in the form of driver download and you will get all the XP drivers available.

  Hope that my announcement will help you.

  By the way; Perhaps you first search the forum for similar topics because this has been discussed a lot of time here in the forum!

• Vista slow boot / stalled since resettlement on Equium L40 - 17M

  After working on the programme which had caused some performance issues *.
  with my laptop Toshiba Equiuum L40 - 17 M - Kontiki, used with a tv on demand
  program for Channel 4 in the United Kingdom - I reinstalled Windows. Unlike a
  last chance to get rid of all traces of Norton,
  startup slowed, in fact, it seems to pause and had done well
  at the beginning of the new facility. How can I resolve this issue? I am
  puzzled as to why this happens when I used the same method
  and the recovery disc, provided by Toshiba.

  I looked in Task Manager to see if I can see where it is at a standstill
  but I can't say. I had to uninstall Norton new because it is responsible for
  the disc of recovery, but the stall was going on independently of this.
  Everything about the Windows Defender Software Explorer limited?

  I thought that it could be the side bar but is not, and this has all
  worked very well before anyway.

  I had the terrible thought that the recovery disks working a finite
  number of times in order to get people to pay ot for a copy of Windows.

  * The 'problems' of performance were probably nothing serious or
  noticeable, just me in response to an exclamation point in a yellow
  triangle, but it niggled me and I thought he could do worse than others
  the software has been added etc.

  Thanks in advance for all entries. I'm reasonably computer literate but
  If anything it might need explain it please err on the side of caution.
  Thank you.

  Hi Lee

  You're talking about Vista performance issues... So I'm interested to know if you have noticed "this" slow down the performance of the first day or after a couple of times.

  You must know that the Vista operating system is a monster! He eats the material resources and you should not comparable with the MS OS at first it XP for example...

  I.e all Vista Aero features needs a huge amount of material resources.
  In addition your laptop supports various features Toshiba as Vista FlashCards, keys Fn, command buttons, etc...

  All the features of this must be controlled by software that runs in the context of the BONE.
  Throughout this process, drivers affect the performance of the Vista operating system, and this can slow down the laptop.

  Anyway... we shouldn't exclude a hardware Supa‰rieur? ¦ example HARD drive...
  I had one laptop slow due to HARD drive failure. Bad HDD sectors were the reason why the laptop has slowed.

• Equium L40 - 17 M - no charge battery on Windows 7

  Hi guys and girls. I'm at my wits end so any help would be great.

  I have a Toshiba Equium L40 - 17M. I installed Windows7 2 days and since then it has been giving me this message when I flew over the battery icon: pluged in but no charge please consider which battery
  It was fine when I was running the original Windows Vista Home Premium.

  Before I installed it, I did a check on the Microsoft Web site, and it said my computer would run fine on the 32-bit version and all programs would go now what happened?
  I was also on the Toshiba site to see if I need to get the software from them but in the Windows 7 upgrade part, there is no support for my laptop.

  Please could someone help me thanks.

  > I was also on the Toshiba site to see if I need to get the software from them but in the Windows 7 upgrade part, there is no support for my laptop.
  That's the point. You use unsupported operating systems. He will be supported in the future and until you accept that something don't work properly.
  I'm sure that battery is charging correctly, but there is a problem with the information you get in Win7.

  Leave it on the adapter for 3 hours and let me know if your battery is completely discharged or not if you unplug the power plug.

• Equium L40 - Windows won't start, message on screen

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Equium L40 - 17M.
  Recently when update my antivirus, my computer tried to restart but now does not load correctly.
  Now whenever I try to turn on the computer, after the initial configuration screen Toshiba I'm greeted by the following message is displayed in the upper left corner of the screen.

  Playing a disc error has occurred
  Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart.

  However, this message seems right once again!
  Suggestions please!

  It could be a problem of file system corruption, in which case you can connect the HARD drive to another PC and run CHKDSK on the drive.

  If no help, then check the bad sectors HARD disk using the Test advanced in Hitachi DFT (Google is your friend)

  Or you can try to run your recovery discs recovery. This reformatted HARD drive, so you will need your first of all if the data backup sound still there (you can use a USB 2.5 "HDD adapter).

  If you really need your data back, there are data recovery programs, you can download to search the HARD disk for lost files.

  I had to replace my hard drive in my Toshiba Equium L40 and need to install windows vista again I have my code of product vista Home premium but no installation disc.

  Can someone help

  Hello

  Sorry do you need exactly? Do you need disc recovery Toshiba or d you must have Microsoft Vista disk?

  The serial key you found at the bottom of the unit belongs to the preinstalled Windows operating system and will NOT work by using different Windows disks.

  You have two options;
  Either you buy the here Toshiba Recovery disk:
  https://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

  Or you buy the original disc of Microsoft Vista and will use the drivers provided by page European driver Toshiba

  There is no other solution.

  The FL inverter is part hidden behind plastic frame and control the hand lit display.

  It is not easy to provide a response based on the description of your problem.
  If you use connection WLAN make sure wireless network adapter is installed, enabled and configured correctly.

  USB cable? What type of USB cable do you use?

• Equium L40 - Vista won't start after installation of product recovery

  Hello

  I had to realize a product uses recovery provided restore disk on an Equium L40 computer laptop (PLS41). The recovery procedure done his job to the end, reformats and copy all the files and then restarts. Now the problem starts...
  The pc gets in front of the BIOS boot screen, then it goes completely black with only a cursor to underscore flashing in the upper corner of the screen. No HARD or CD-rom drive activity.

  I did the cover about ten times now. All with the same result. I tried the repair procedure using a Vista boot CD and I also tried using another disk supplied with the computer, anytime upgrade from Vista. Here they are without defects, see the hard drive and shows that the vista files are on it, also sees the winRE partition.

  I tired even fresh install from the disc at any time. It also reformats the disk, copies and decompresses all files needed, begins to install the updates on the disk and then said: he needs to restart. It restarts and goes to black screen with flashing underscore cursor. What happens if I press the 'coup of any key to boot from CD' or leave it to boot from the HARD drive.

  I tried to fix this for two days now, including endless hours of forum to research, the computer belongs to my friend gets very angry I am. I need help. No one knows how to fix?

  Hello

  According to your message, I think that the HARD drive is faulty.
  I think there's a defective recording of MBR (MBR) of the drive and therefore the laptop refuses to boot.

  One question; have you tried to set the BIOS default settings? If this is not the case, try this.

  If it doesn t help and the laptop still does not start upward, then you should ask ASP for verification.
  I think it s a problem of HARD disk and, possibly, the HARD drive must be replaced!

• Re: Equium L40 - 14 l - System recovery option missing

  Hi all

  I have an Equium l40 14l that I finally decided needs to be restored "out of the box" status.

  I can boot to the system recovery options page, but the widely mentioned drive HARD recovery option has been replaced by the option system restore of full Windows OS.
  When I choose it is telling me that is preinstalled files are damaged you can use the recovery dvd - rom product. All I can do is click OK and return to the previous screen.

  I ran a few software partitioning and the hidden partition appears. I don't have a disc of recovery with the machine as she had the hidden restore partition.

  I don't have a backup when I first booted the machine. I think now that it was a good idea, but as I thought I had the hidden partition to rely on I don't bother.

  Ideas if there is a way I can get the system recovery to display HARD drive recovery option?

  Thank you Tom

  Cool. Glad to hear this. Now you can remove all the stuff, you don't need and optimize the preinstalled recovery image.

  Good luck.

• Problem starting Equium L40

  Hello

  I use F1 to start my Equium L40 every time I tun turn it on. It will then start ok but he forgot the time and date, as soon as I update time / date, the computer works perfectly I can access all my email etc accounts without having to put anything.

  The problem started after the replacement of the battery because of that being almost completely dead. I noticed that the computer will not work on AC only without mounted battey but is still charging the battery ok. (if the adapter is ok)

  I love the computer and do not really want to buy a new, but it is very frustrating and tedious when I turn it on.

  Maybe there is a battery backup I can change to fix the problem?

  Any help would be appreciated?

  Hello

  Laptop should also work without battery but connected to the power adapter
  So I guess that your motherboard is affected in some way.

  If the RTC battery (bios) is empty, the time and date in the BIOS menu would be reset to the default value. But in my opinion, this shouldn't be a problem to use the laptop with AC adapter.

  However, the RTC battery can be charged to do that you need to connect the main battery and power adapter and the laptop must be turned on for a longer period of time (18-20 hours).

• CD/DVD player open on its own - Equium L40

  Hello

  I have a laptop Equium L40-10 X recently purchased from Pc World. It has been working fine until recently my reader of cd/dvd broke open on its own. I closed it and then about 10 minutes later he did it again. This happens from time to time. After some research I found that it could be a problem of spyware. Scanned and deleted all traces etc. Problem seemed to have disappeared, but alas, the disc once more burst open.

  Recently the drive does not read disks as well. It seems to work when it wants at any time from 10 seconds up to an hour at a time. Things became an own mind... and when it doesn't, the button to open the player doesnâ? t seem to work. I have to use a paper clip to open the player.

  I have a laptop haunted or there is something wrong.

  Did someone has had an experience of something like it before or give me advice on what to do?

  Thank you, Jon.

  Hi mate

  I didn't noticed anything like this before, but I assume that it s a mechanical problem.
  Don t think that 3rd party software (program, spyware, virus, etc.) could cause this problem.
  In addition, you said that the drive does not read disks as well.

  In this case, I would recommend contacting the ASP in your country and ask for the disc and if necessary audit for a replacement disk WEIRD.

  If the warranty is valid replacement should be done for free.

  Best regards
