• I need to replace the battery and AC adapter of the Satellite Pro U400-160

  I have a Satellite Pro U400-160.

  I need to replace the battery and the charger of my Toshiba, but I am wary about compatibility issues.

  Any battery for Satellite Pro U400 is suitable for mine?
  As I can't find which batteries are specifically suitable for my computer.

  (For example: is this a: http://www.amazon.es/Bater%C3%ADa-Toshiba-Satellite-U400-11V-7800mAh/dp/B0051A9Y88/ref=sr_1_cc_2?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1366885340&sr=1-2-catcorr&keywords=satellite+pro+u400?)

  Is there a quick way to check if a battery / charger are compatible?

  Each battery and adapter you get from Toshiba has specific part number. All you have to do is use this same part number and order. You should be able to find on the internet.
  You can also get compatible parts you are ordering by the Toshiba authorized service provider in your country.

  By the way: all U400 models have the same construction and the similar specifications then all the batteries specified for U400 can be used on your U400-160.

• Fingerprinting is on Satellite Pro U400-160 - specified database not found

  Hello

  Well, I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite Pro U400. The first day, I took my fingerprints, and all went well.
  The next day, the software reinstalled himself for some reason any... and lost of my fingerprints.
  So I went back to the software TrueSuite Access manager, but this time I had a problem!

  ' *' Error: specified database could not be found ' n ' exact error message no, something similar.*

  I got this message, so I looked in this forum. I discovered that I could reinstall the software, so I did and got the last update, but it's the same thing.

  I don't know what to do, I just installed Office 2007 since I was the computer, nothing else.

  Help, please!
  Thank you very much

  You take the recovery disc and reinstall the OS using the Toshiba disc.
  The laptop must be set to the factory settings/configuration and then you should check if the same error message again.

• Windows Explorer hangs when copying large files on external USB drive

  I'm trying to copy files over 1 GB of my pc to a WD MyBook external drive. After about 10% on the progress indicator, Windows Explorer crashes. When I cancel the work, nothing happens until I unplug the USB. Then I have the pc returns to normal.

  During my research, I discovered that a lot of people have this problem. I have tried many suggestions, but without result. The last thing I tried was a full format the C: drive with a fresh install of Vista. Copy a large file gave me the message 'Calculating time' infinite. After you have installed SP1 reappeared the problem as explained above.

  Some of the things I've tried:
  check the external hard drive: no problem found and the problem occurs on all my MesLivres 3
  safe mode
  Superfetching disabled
  update the motherboard bios

  Now my last request resource helps professionals. If I don't find a solution I'll have to go back to XP, achieve Win7 or one rating for Mac... a lot of things to think about.

  Best regards
  Rafael

  Try to copy in safe mode. If can be a slow usb port. Try anther one.

  Good luck.

• Re: Satellite Pro U400 - Windows could not start, how to recover?

  I hope this is the right forum to display this property (if not, please let me know where I should post this) and nude w / a beginner like me. Any help or direction will be appreciated.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro U400-160 is more than a year. I have not used a lot lately, because I usually use my netbook computer for day to day stuff, but the Toshiba contains some files I want to see lost. That's the message that came when I turned on my laptop for the last time:

  "Unable to start Windows. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.
  To solve the problem:
  1. Insert your Windows installation disc and restart the computer.
  2. choose your language settings, and then click Next.
  3. click on "repair your computer".

  If you do not have the disk, contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance

  File: \Boot\BCD
  Status: 0xc000000f
  Info: An error occurred trying to read the boot configuration data. "

  Usually, I store all my software as a whole but I recently changed from home and for the life of me, I can't find the Toshiba recovery system disk. Even if I did, however, which would mean losing all files on my computer?
  My question is, is there a way to fix this without losing all data? Should I first try to save the data somehow and then solve the problem? And finally, how to solve this problem with/without the recovery CD?

  Thanks in advance. Any help will be MUCH appreciated.
  PS. This look is like a virus? What is a windows update that has corrupted some files?

  Hi monstarika,

  You can access the Windows Advanced Boot menu and boot into safe mode?
  If so try also to start the recovery of HARD drive if you choose fix my computer. If the operating system preinstalled by Toshiba is still installed, you can use this feature.

  If this work of t doesn't and you don t have the recovery disc, you can order directly in an enw one of Toshiba. That s no problem because you can order it online here:

• Satellite Pro U400 freezes sometimes when the power cord is plugged

  Hello! I know that this problem has been addressed here and there, but I'd like to open a new thread about it. Here's the scenario.

  I recently bought a new Toshiba Satellite Pro U400-247 (PSU45E) with two batteries: (a) the original, (b) in addition purchased authentic of Toshiba PA3636U-1BRL, 7200 mAh. The laptop has the latest BIOS (4.80) and the latest drivers downloaded from Toshiba and installed (ConfigFree is not installed). I use XP Pro SP3 (own installation by myself). Everything works fine, except for one thing:

  Sometimes (but), when the laptop is running on battery power and I plug in the power cord, everything hangs and I have to restart. A few observations:

  It tends to occur more frequently when the low battery alarm has rung;
  (b) it seems to happen more frequently with the 7200 mAh battery and less frequently with the original battery.
  (c) it seems to happen most often when a USB device (mouse, for example) has been linked to the laptop, but it is not a rule;
  (d) it seems to happen less often when I move the mouse USB at the time wherever I am connect the power cord.
  (e) I've experimented a lot with Toshiba PowerSaver settings (for example to change the levels of CPU for my profile) but nothing I changed seems to change the situation.
  (f) I tried different suggestions I found on various forums, but nothing works (for example the BIOS settings);
  (g) otherwise, I can say that I have not really seen a smoother computer, everything works really fine, no other problem :)

  Everything that makes me think it must be some sort of bug in the drivers of motherboard driver PowerSaver or other drivers interact with battery, CPU or possibly USB. Y at - it an explanation to this problem and can it be rectified in some way (for example, by providing a driver update)?

  Hello

  First of all, I never heard a driver from the motherboard.
  There is a drive chipset or a graphics card driver. There is no such thing as a driver of the motherboard!

  Look, man. laptop should work fine even the AC adapter is connected or not connected
  If the laptop freezes while there might be a software problem, but in my opinion it could be hardware problem
  You must reinstall the operating system if the laptop would freeze always the issue might be related to hardware

  First of all the memory modules and AC adapter must be verified.
  If the problem persists even using new modules and AC adapter, motherboard may be affected.

• Satellite Pro U400-247 - noise static when the AC adapter is plugged

  Hello

  I got by Satellite Pro U400-247 and you have a problem with the sound.

  Everytime I plugg in adapter (external power supply) there is a kind of droning noise static noise when I use the audio out (headphones).

  Does anyone have a solution for this problem?

  Thank you
  Marcus

  Hello

  I guess that's not happed running the laptop on battery only. Right?

  I think that this issue is released to a grounding problem.
  I read different forums on this kind of question it.
  Usually use the 3 cord power cable should help get rid you of this noise.

  In your case I would recommend asking for cord 3 power cable (maybe you need another adapter that supports the 3-wire power cord) to a Toshiba authorized maintainer.

• Satellite Pro U400-11V - Sharp noise when starting with connected screen

  Hello

  We received 5 x computers laptops Satellite Pro U400-11V, are excellent, with one exception:

  When you start (it happens on all of them) with a screen VGA monitor plugged in, a high beep is played from what looks like the speaker system. It occurs just before the first splash screen windows.

  Once the windows login screen is displayed a monitor can be connected to any problem & works very well.

  What can I check? I have had a look but do not find all the tracks so far, where this post.

  Thank you
  -A

  Perhaps you are meaning that the beep POST (Power on self test)?

  The laptop still sounds if the POST has been successfully passed.

  Parts of the motherboard will be verified during POST, and if everything is ok, a beep is displayed.

  If something would be a mistake, the laptop will not start and different beeps would appear.

  Welcome them

• The update of the BIOS on Satellite Pro U400?

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro U400 (PSU41E) running Windows 7 x 64 and I try to update the BIOS to version 4.70 to 4.00.

  Whenever I try to do it from Windows using WinPhlash which comes with the download on the Toshiba site it seems to freeze when you try to Flash the new BIOS.
  I connected as the local administrator, tried to use other programs flash and even tried to do from a USB flash drive with no luck.

  Can someone please help me and explain how do I update the BIOS?

  Hello

  > tried to use other flash programs
  Never use other flash programs! In the worst case, you could damage the ROM module and then it must be replaced. Use only the program flash Toshiba that is tested and designed for laptop and the version of the BIOS.

  The update of the BIOS program is also designed for Windows, it s a Windows Update program.

  Satellite Pro U400 wasn t comes with Windows 7 so I guess you did your own installation. Value added package is required for the update of the BIOS program and can be downloaded on the European driver of Toshiba download page where is your laptop model:

  I just wanted to get a feedback from you guys about the U400 - 23M series. Here are the specs:

  • Intel Core 2 Duo T5870 2.0 GHz, 2 MB
  • 13.3 "TruBrite® WXGA 1280 x 800

  I have a few questions for you guys who own a laptop U400.

  Is - this treatment of 64-bit support? I don't know if the Vista operating system that is delivered is 32-bit or 64-bit.
  Run quietly and cool when they surf the web, type in Word and under the easy workload like that? It gets very loud and hot runs more demanding programs such as Photoshop CS3?
  I know that this video card is not ment for gaming, but manipulates her older games like Call of Duty 4?

  Do you recommend this laptop? I tried searching the Internet for customers, but I couldn't find the model U400 - 23M. What are the advantages and disadvantages on this laptop?

  Hi mate

  I n t have the Satellite Pro U400 - 23M, but I m an owner of the Satellite U400-10N.
  I use it in my office all I love this little baby.

  You should know that the U400 has 13.3 display and it of smaller than the P100.
  So you will definitely notice a difference.

  One of my friends said that 13.3 would be too low for him, but for me it s best. I can take everywhere and sometimes I m work while traveling around the world

  So I m very satisfied.

  I ve installed Win XP on this U400 and it s functions perfectly!
  But you can install Vista 64 bit too. The Satellite Pro U400 - 23M uses the Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T5870, that supports 64-bit

  But note; the U400 is not really a cellphone game hardcore.
  My U400 supports an Intel graphics chip and usually I only use it for office, graphic design (web) applications and web browsing.

• Satellite Pro U400-13 a - starting problems

  I have a Satellite Pro U400 13A running Windows XP Pro and have startup problems.

  The computer was working well until that last Wednesday when I modified the settings of advanced management power in how he reacted to the closing of the lid [hibernate] or pressing the power [on hold] button. Then, I closed the lid that I had to leave in a hurry.

  About 2 hours later, I opened the lid to take what I was doing and to a complete stop, but I got a partial summary leading to a bluescreen with the logo "XP" just to the right of Center and no home screen or directly in the Windows desktop as expected. Then, the computer does nothing.

  Pressing ALT + DEL shows that both operations are underway - "Windows logon" and "Connection", but the selection does nothing.
  I left the computer up to 6 hours, in the hope that it was a lengthy process that prevented it go further but still the same blue screen rest.

  I forced a shutdown by pressing the power and then restarted in the start menu [Safe Mode etc.].
  According to the boot option I then select [I tried all the] bothers me on the same position that I started with - blue screen with "XP" logo.

  I don't have a recovery disk, nor do the recovery option of disk in the advanced boot menu. I am at a loss.
  I sent the problem to technical support Toshiba but no response.

  What are my options?

  Thank you

  > I don't have a recovery disk, nor do the recovery option of disk in the advanced boot menu. I am at a loss. I sent the problem to technical support Toshiba but no response.

  Seems you have to reinstall new OS.
  If you don t have disks or functional HARD drive recovery option, then I would recommend ordering the disc from here:

  Hello

I wanted to put the larger HARD drive in the U400 but the screws that hold the HARD drive in the laptop are closer together on the 160 GB HARD drive as this 120 GB HARD drive and so I can plug the HARD drive, but I can't replace the casing on the bottom of the laptop. I want to upgrade and put in a new HARD drive, but I can't seem to find any info on weither all readers will be the right size. will be the screws on this form? How will I know

  Does it matter what company it comes? I thought I got it was weird that the Satellite U300 would not transfer more easily.

  If anyone has any ideas please let me know...

  Thank you

  Hey,.

  Theoretically, you can install each HARD drive with SATA 2.5 form factor interface in Satellite Pro U400.

  If you install a new HARD drive in Satellite Pro U400, you must use the old disk cover/case HARD to install.
  I put t know what you mean exactly with that, but maybe you can upload a photo to make it clearer.

  Finally and above all it doesn t matter what company it comes. You can use a Toshiba or another company HARD disk too like Western Digital, Seagate, etc..

• Satellite Pro U400 - 24 - crack appeared in the frame above the DVD drive

  I have a fairly new Satellite Pro U400 - 24 hours (seven months), where a crack appeared just above the DVD drive, close to the screen where the slot ends. I know for sure that I havn't dropped it, so I just want to know if it is a problem that everyone knows? If the framework becomes fragile due to heating (it's pretty warm when he must preform)

  Hey,.

  I put t really know why this happens, but on my Satellite U400 I couldn t notice such a problem. I have a year now and it works perfectly and the case doesn't have a crack or something.

  In my opinion, you should contact an authorized service provider. Guys can order a new replacement part and swap it for you! :)
