Re: Satellite U400 v U500, which one to buy

Hello world.

I replace my Equium A200 and I have the choice of buying either the 22N U400, U500 - 11G.
Can someone tell me which is the better of the two, because I don't see much difference. Advantages and disadvantages of each would be nice.

Thank you.

Without comparing the specs for the two models of laptops, I think it's better to buy a new Satellite U500. In my opinion, the design is much better and without shiny surface which must be cleaned every day.

I saw it in the store and I like it a lot. In my opinion SatelliteU500 Toshiba has designed a laptop very nice and small.
To who wanted to should you this little book? I mean, I can't imagine that u500 is not something you need for your daily work.

  • which one to buy, a55 or a65?

    these cameras are the only ones that I can afford, and since im new to this type of cameras any help or suggestion or whatever it is will be appreciated...

    Now what I need is:

    Click here: I mean I want the one with the soft click so I don't have to press hard take the picture (and therefore it will not be as shakey or something when I press)

    Extreme for landscape, Portrait, close-up, people (or these will vary on the lens?) (if you know what I mean by the "extreme")

    and can someone explain to me or at least a summary version of which is f / x and mm because I do not really understand their but based on me, more the highest number?

    Finally, if you were me, what would you get a55 or a65?

    I didn't know the A55 was yet available his almost three years now and has been replaced by the A57 & more recently, the A58 motorway, then I'd go with the A65.

    The shutter does not have a lot of pressure to activate, and the camera has built in stabilization to help traffic.

    I'm not sure what you mean by "extreme" and Yes, the type of photography you want to do depends on the type of lens used as and yet there is not all available objective.

    Lets start with MM it means just a used special lens zoom range so a 10-24mm zoom Zen is considered a wide angle because you can adapt many of the subject in a shot that would be good for a landscape vs. a 200-500mm zoom which allows you closer to your subject with to actually do near them It's a good goal for pictures of wild life.

    F stop refers to the size of the opening, the opening is the opening in a lens which controls the amount of light is the sensor of the camera lowest number as F1.8 is a very large opening to let a lot of light in vs a F22 which is a very small opening and leaves not a lot of light in. The advantage of a large opening is a good fast shutter for fast moving subjects, but having the largest opening is very expensive usaully. The F stop also controls the depth of field. the link will explain that one.

  • photo shop elements 7 vs light room which one to buy?

    Well Ive looked at a lot of tutorials and both seem to have a few cool feateures.  I'm a frame to the photo editor.  I can't decide on which program use.  Use photo shop conductive 3 for a few years, I'm not fine with it.  I took courses on photoshop cs and found that it is a program much more than I have the time to learn.  I want to be able to organize adjust and share my photos.  I want to be able to take several pictures and turn them into one.  Both programs can work together?

    I have about 8000 photos that I'll have to re-import, tag and organize I all too well uprade or changing the programs before I take the time to do so.  An entry form anyone who has used both would be greatly appreciated.

    Randy

    PSE and LR can work together: you would import your photos into LR and

    Catalog/keywords / non-destructive - adjust them, then you can right click

    then edit in Photoshop Elements to perform other destructive settings to a

    the copy of the corrected photo LR.

    PSE7 is less than $100.  LR2 is $ 300.  PS11 is $ 600.  I have all three and

    using LR most of the time and tend to use PS to make additional settings

    I believe necessary, which is not often, so most of the things are supported

    to entirely in LR.

    You can download a trial of PSE7 and LR2 and see how you like

    one or both.  You cannot be shared between the two keywords, you

    want to use LR to catalogue and organize things if you have it, or perhaps of PES

    to organize things if you don't not LR, although I have never done this

    can't really compare the two.

    So many want to take several photos and create one of them, you don't

    say something like a collage or scrapbook pages, are do you mean take a

    object such as a person from a photo and put it in a context of

    another, a composite photo that still looks like a photo?  Being a

    the consumer program, PSE may be able to do the things simple collage-type.

    but you need the Photoshop full professionally to make the overlay and

    masking involved in the creation of a composite photograph with parts of other

    that you extracted.

  • Card memory ThinkPad E540. Which one to buy?

    Hello!

    I am owner of a 00HFR of 20 6 E540 which came with a card memory made by Samsung (4 GB) (4 GB 1R8PC3L - 12800 S-11-13-B4 M471B5173 EB0 YKO 1432 says on the label)

    I would like to increase the amount of available memory, but the cheapest way. So I have a couple of options if I'm not mistaken:

    Buy a 4GB module pair with the existing, for a total of 8 GB.

    Buy a module of 8 GB for a total of 12 GB.

    If I'm not mistakent, the option are possible, but the 8 G module will be less good preformance over the same module size in both slots.

    I have a few questions:

    Which module should I buy: Corsair, Crucial, Kingston, G. Skill? (Here is the brand my dealer sells)

    I would be very happy to get a P/N for options 4 and 8 GB.

    Thank you very much in advance for your help and response.

    I'd say go with the configuration 4 + 8GB. Any generic 8 GB DDR3L 12800 S should work (avoid even if Corsair; there were a few problems with it and ThinkPads in the past).

    Unless you use an external card reader, it won't really make a difference. The SD on the video controller is quite slow.

  • Toshiba Satellite U400-14Z upgrade to a faster processor - which is the most rapid possible?

    Hello.

    I want to upgrade an old Toshiba Satellite U400-14Z (http://www.toshiba.eu/discontinued-p...lite-u400-14z/) a little by changing the CPU. Initially there is a processor Intel Core 2 Duo P8400 with FSB to 1066 MHz but I thought to put there P9700 or P9500. It seems that they are similar, specification is exactly, except the speed and the amount of memory cache level 2. The question is: would this work?
    I also found CPU called T9900, which is the fastest of the family. However, T-line requires more power than the line P, 25W to 35W in comparison. Is it possible that she would work in this phone?
    Maybe there's even some CPU more Rapids that would fit. Y at - it all? I'm looking for the maximum possible speed.
    Thank you for the answers.

    Hello.

    Maybe there's even some CPU more Rapids that would fit. Y at - it all? I'm looking for the maximum possible speed.

    I found Intel® Core 2 Extreme Processor QX9300 who might be compatible. It has 4 cores and a thermal power of 45W design, compared to P8400 of TDP 25W. I suspect that the cooling of this laptop is insufficient to be able to disperse the money.

  • Satellite Satellite U400-22N - which averaged 22N?

    Thank you in anticipation of answers

    Fred

    > my first request is that means the 22N
    I m not very well, but I think that there is no special significance to this extension of number.
    It s just an extension since there are many models of different laptops that appear in different countries and different hardware configuration.

    It of just one helps to keep outside individual units.

  • Satellite U400-135 overheating

    Hello

    A few weeks back I bought the new Toshiba Satellite U400-138 and now I feel it is a lower design due to numerous complains that I found one here in the forum support or by people who have tried to deal with this series.

    Fist of all the overheating problem becomes not affordable as I'm about to lose my fingers due to the extreme heat comes from the lower level of touch pad! In addition it usually takes more than 7 minutes to get the login screen of windows while beginning to the top of the window and when you access the window continues to display the CPU usage almost 100% long just by clicking the internet explorer, so I can't do anything except wait (it's killing slow) and when I compare with my old P4 desktop , according to me, how I was wrong when I decided to go to the U-400!

    Today I've decided to take the laptop to the Toshiba dealer and when I was there, I tried to touch the lower part of the availbel for similar in the showroom model and it was very hot and when I asked the sales man there he informed me that there are many customers reported the same complain so I referred me to their service center for inspection and I'm so annoying now because my new laptop will be served after only two weeks and I think that this model is a design of lower quality and the only way to get rid of this problem to get the same replaced by something else?

    your valuable comments is highly apprciated.

    Salvation will be

    I have a U400 too. It s a U400 which belongs to the series of PSU40E.
    I use two BONES; Vista and XP.

    Initially the Vista started slowly, it was not too slow but slower than Win XP.

    I studied a bit and found a solution;
    First of all, I discovered that many background processes and apps have loaded early in the boot process in MSCONFIG, you can find these applications.

    I disabled some unnecessary programs (for me) and the notebook starts up much faster.

    Moreover, I noticed that Tempro update tool helped me a lot.

    So please check these two proposals.
    I don't know that it could help you...

    Regarding the temperature more high touchpad;
    Well, my touchpad is also hotter than the rest of the cover of the laptop but is nothing unusual because cooling modules are placed under the touchpad and the left side is warmer due to the dissipation of the heat of this side of the laptop

    If you shouldn't be worried; It is not unusual

    Bye & have a nice day

  • Command buttons and lights not working not properly - Satellite U400

    I am currently facing a problem with my Satellite U400, which runs under Windows Vista / Bios v3.00.
    First, the control buttons no longer work, as when I press on them, nothing more. It was that when you press on, the LED lights for a while and then come back to life.

    Now, LEDS are constantly lit. Even when the laptop is turned off and the cable is removed.

    So far, I tried to turn on and turn off the LED option in the Bios (that is turned on and off the LED on the touchpad and the logo of Satellite, but not on the control buttons). I uninstalled and reinstalled the Value Pack from recovery CD - no change. I deleted and reinstalled the Windows called devices: ACPI fixed feature button (thought this might help).

    Is there anything else I could do?

    Once the problem is resolved, I wonder if the command buttons can be customized. For some reason I do not seem to find the appropriate program to set those.

    Thanks for any input.

    Hello

    Someone suggested this work around:
    You must install the utility to control on the one hand, and where to install the value Pack, choose Advanced Options and uncheck the Support Button TOSHIBA.

  • Re: Can I use the other Satellite U400 series recovery disk

    I have Toshiba Satellite U400 121. My recovery disk does not work may be due the scratches that I see in it. I took the laptop to the Toshiba Center service and I got a negative support of them. They said, they can't put the Windows Vista because the recovery disk is not there, and they have put Windows XP inside and handed to me.
    later I got to know that Windows Xp is not Geninue one. :|

    I can still see one of the Partition 'D:' with folder HDDRecovery inside.

    So can I use Recovery Disk of all PC model Toshiba laptop other than the Toshiba Satellite U400 121 recovery disk.

    In fact, I tried with the other model recovery disk, that at boot with this disk, Recovery Wizard starts up, but since I'm not sure about this one I stopped there and brought out.

    Please one of you let me know if you have valuable contributions on this.

    suggestions are welcome!

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    I don't know Mr. which series Satellite U400-121, it is, but you must use the recovery disc designed specifically for this series of laptop!

    Another recovery disc cannot be used because the drivers and tools that have been implemented in the image of Toshiba are not designed for this series of laptop!

    By the way; You can order the CD from recovery from here:

  • Satellite U400-119 integrated webcam malfunction

    Hello everyone, hope you can help me with this problem.

    I have a * Toshiba Satellite U400-119 * with built-in webcam which worked GREAT until one day she decided to give me a black screen everytime I turned on it. It's all quite normal, but instead of me show ME on cam window when I'm in front of it, it is all black. However, when I take a snapshot with the camera it gives me a picture with me on this subject with all the background as it works perfectly well. However, in mode Webcam live he keeps gives me a black screen.

    I don't think that there is nothing wrong with the lens if not that the instant test not would not have worked. I should also mention that I tried to record a video with her and it is for me the noise but the screen remains black too...

    Put except that I tried to update the version of webcam, but it seems that I already have the latest version (UVC 1.7.175.0123).

    I'm not very computer literate, but I'd appreciate it if you could try and help with simple terms ;)

    Thank you for your time.

  • Satellite U400-119 - battery not recognized

    Hello

    I just bought a laptop TOSHIBA Satellite U400-119. The operating system is Windows Vista Home basic.
    Before I turned on the laptop, I plugged on the CC adapter and let the batteries reload for 24 hours.

    However, after 24 hours, battery LED icon is orange and blinks (which means that the battery is low according to the user manual).
    When I tried to turn on the laptop without the adapter DC laptop computer did not respond. So I installed Vista while the laptop was still connected to the DC adapter.

    After installation, the Vista battery icon displays a red cross on the battery icon, which means that it is not recognized.
    This is a brand new laptop so I think the battery needs to be replaced, but I don't know.

    Someone at - it had a similar problem?
    Any sollutions to my problem?

    Thanks in advance!

    A display really interesting because one of my friends got the laptop U400 and a similar one issued what s happened too.
    Suddenly, the battery did not recognize I thought that it s a malfunction of the battery. But I was wrong.

    The solution is very easy.
    You must update the BIOS and this should help get rid you of this strange issue.
    My friend did the same thing and it worked!

    So check it out. Download the BIOS compatible and right and update!

  • Satellite U400-144 - Vista cannot return

    Hello everyone

    I got this new Toshiba Satellite U400-144 (PSU40E), came with Vista home and worked really well until I decided to install Linux. Everything was going fine until I had my HARD drive partitions, when I deleted my 1.5 GB partition, which is called partition EISA!

    I don't know how to get it back, no disc don't came with the laptop and Vista no longer exists and I can't get it back.
    Quite simply when I boot I get a message: LACK of OPERATING SYSTEM

    Can anyone tell how to get this score again?
    Please help and thanks in advance :)

    Hello!

    First, the EISA partition do you mean don't contain Vista installation files or let's say the recovery disc. The EISA partition contains files for restore systems and it is a feature of Vista, not Toshiba.
    With the recovery disk, you would be able to get the factory settings, this means an installation of Vista with all the drivers and tools of Toshiba.

    The only way to return Vista is a Toshiba Recovery disk. Go to a local ASP or you can order one directly from Toshiba.
