• Slow start on Vista Home Premium - Satellite U400-15B

  Hello

  I just bought Satellite U400-15B and am finding it takes very long to start Vista, I went into msconfig and disabled the things I don't use and stuff that I think is not necessary, but it is still having to wait ages before that I can use the laptop. I have enough RAM and processor speed, so I don't think that the specifications of the laptop are a problem

  Is there something that can be done on this slow start, any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  I think slow start or laptop slow operations depend on good configuration of the OS. I played with this last month and I am now convinced that Vista starts and runs on my laptop.

• Satellite U400 - color of the shell of edges and slow start of the housing

  Hi all

  Just bought a Satellite U400-15B and am loving the laptop itself but have the following two issues.

  First of all, regarding the case I noticed that on the edge of the high gloss base (where he meets the not shiny black plastic bottom) the paint is already peeling.

  It is mainly about above the left USB port, CD drive in Rabat and at the rear above the battery (only visible when the lid is closed). It is very minor and is only visible when looked at her carefully, but obviously I paid a lot for this so do not want to look all worn in a few months. Someone at - it? I took a look at a few display models and its mixed, some are worn in areas similar some are perfect. I would like to exchange it, but I'm afraid that the replacement can be another problem like a dead pixel or may have the same problem only worse?

  Second, I noticed that my laptop takes a long time to start compared to my old Toshiba A200 which also runs Vista. I removed a lot of bloatware and the Toshiba TEMPRO, which I heard is also causing problems, but I still have this problem. It seems to start fine until the Vista logo screen then it takes awhile, while displaying "Please wait".

  Anyone has any ideas on this?

  Hello MrAK

  If the laptop is brand new and you have a few days only I recommend you contact your dealer as soon as possible and. Talk with them and explain that you don't want to have replacement with dead Pixel or something like that. I hope they will understand you and help get new but 100% good laptop.

  Slow start is discussed several times. I have Satellite A300 and commissioning was horrible, but now, after a slight modification it starts after only 1.5 minutes.

• Satellite U400-15E - cannot start new USB HDD

  Hello.

  Recently a bought a WD My Book external with 3TeraByte to use with my Satellite U400-15E. I can use inside Windows 7 Ultimate without problem. But if I try to boot from it (by pressing the F12 key), the BIOS does not even see the drive.

  Is it because Toshiba does not use Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI)? UEFI BIOS can overcome the limitation of 2.19 to in computers today easily, as explained in the following Western Digital document:
  [http://www.wdc.com/wdproducts/library/Flyer/ENG/2579-771501.pdf]

  This would allow me to use my new external drive to store an image Ghost drive HARD internal of my Toshiba for example. I mean 3 TB and more capacity is a reality today. When Toshiba updates their UEFI BIOS support?

  Material used:
  Toshiba Satellite U400-15E (BIOS v5.00 10/26/2010)
  Western Digital My Book Essential 3TeraByte - Firmware v1.014 (USB 3.0 interface)
  MS Windows 7 Ultimate - 32 bit version

  Thank you

  Hello

  Satellite U400 supports devices to boot according to the user manual:
  USB FLOPPY DRIVE
  HARD drive primary school
  Optical devices
  Network (LAN)

  If the USB drives are not supported.

  But you're absolutely right Re: 3 to and a larger capacity is reality today, but Satellite U400 is older model laptop and not newer ;)

• iMac slow start was fast

  My iMac, with 1 disk of merger to, was very quick to open the OS since multinational April 2015, then suddenly became very very slow to open recently.  For example the Apple logo appears in a few seconds and the load in a few seconds more.  Now the Apple logo minutes to load.

  Latest version of the OS is 10.10.5.  It's 3.1 GHz Intel Core I7 processor.  The memory is 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3.

  No idea why the slow start happening?  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

• Motherboard for Satellite U400-15E work Equium U400-124?

  Hello

  My graphics card died on my U400 - 124 & I said that the motherboard must be replaced.
  I found one for a Toshiba U400-15 and I was wondering if that will enter my chassis.
  It's ok if I have to reformat my hard drive & reinstall windows.

  Here's what he said on that I found.

  A000060020
  Motherboard Toshiba U400 - 15th

  Compatible with A000027670 A000060020 31TE1MB01N0

  I have attached a picture of my model below.

  Any help is really appreciated

  According to the image of the Equium U400-124 belongs to the series of PSU42E

  Satellite U400-15E belongs to the PSU44E, but both series are very similar, and I guess that the motherboard could be compatible... the presentation of the motherboard seems even if from my point of view of a few you should be able to install this card.

  If you put expensive RAM and/or incorrect RAM then Yes. iMacs are very sensitive to the RAM and you must use quality RAM, more experienced on these forums users use OWC (www.macsales.com) or critical (direct purchase). RAM should also be installed in pairs. If you purchased anything else, then after a report of EtreCheck of your system and we can look for obvious problems.

  Hello

  My notebook booted up like a turtle. Do you know why?
  Because many applications have been installed in the autostart folder or in the registry, run entry and this affected the start-up procedure.
  I had Norton Antivirus installed and loaded always at the beginning.

  I read that this software needs of too many resources and slows down the performance of the laptops.
  I removed and instead of Norton, I use another program called Antivir antivirus.
  It s freeware and my notebooks starts much faster than with preinstalled Symantec Norton Antivirus.

  I recommend also using a small tool called CCleaner.
  It repairs the registry of the operating system and remove all garbage and junk of the system.
  It s really nice

  See you soon

• Satellite Pro - Slow start up and sound is messed up

  I had my * Toshiba Satellite Pro * with * Windows XP * for a good few years now. She has always worked like a gem and only gave me no problems until a few weeks ago.

  A few weeks ago I was downloading a program and with it the virus 'Antivir Solutions' very undesirable and unliked. I've done everything I can to get rid of this disaster (with the help of the support forums) and I think that I managed to get rid of it, but since my computer has not been the same.

  I had trouble downloading a PDF document, a few days ago and it froze so I tried to restart that caused the computer to have a hissing fit, remove my user account which meant I had to configure everything again from scratch. And, now, the computer takes a good 45 minutes from the moment you press the button "ON" when it is ready to start working. Not to mention, it takes a good 10 minutes every time you click on an icon for the program to start actually...

  I tried to defrag the system and you have tried to uninstall unused programs to speed up the computer, but it did not work.
  I also ran several anti-virus (e.g. Norton, AVG, Microsoft Security Essentials) to make sure that I don't have wicked not spoil me, but they come clean.

  May I also add the sound is messed up also. If I use the built-in speakers or external speakers, the sound is disjoint and broken. Like any video I have play.

  I don't know what to do.
  I can't really afford a new computer, but I need my computer to be reliable. I use my computer for 12 of the 24 hours a day...
  * What can I do? *

  Hi nicoletrist,

  I put t know what laptop you have exactly, but I think that the slow start Windows is caused due to viruses you have or had.
  A few years ago I also had a virus and it was causing a very slow start to the top, he did take up to 10 minutes until Windows has been loaded and the only solution to get rid of this used Toshiba recovery disc.

  I would like to recommend you. Use the Toshiba Recovery disk to restore to factory settings and save your data, because everything on the HARD drive will be erased.
  I'm sure after using the laptop recovery disk will work like a charm again! :)

  Firefox has slow start up & I have the latest version. IE, Chrome, AOL will begin immediately. Firefox takes up to 10 minutes.

  This has happened

  Each time Firefox opened

  == update to 3.6

  You may need to use questions Troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode (click on "Safe Mode" and reading) to locate the problem. Firefox Safe mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, place you in the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Modules > Themes before start Safe Mode. When you enter Safe Mode, do not check all the items in the window, just click "continue mode without failure." A test to see if the problem you are experiencing is fixed.

  If the problem does not occur in mode without failure, then disable all your Extensions and Plug-ins, and then try to find out who is causing by allowing both the problem reappears. You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change via file > restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use 'Disable all add-ons' on the start safe mode window.

  Any advice? Gather the HDD0 and space of two disks will be more fast laptop?

  It s 2 GHz speed and 2 GB memory.
  Thank you

  Hey Buddy

  You slow startup and startup has nothing to do with the HARD drive space.
  Your laptop could start slowly, due to a large amount of processes that run in the context of the operating system!

  What you could do, is first the msconfig and disable unnecessary applications in the Startup tab.

  Use some applications cleaning CCLeaner (tool free) i.e. to clean the operating system and the registry. Last but least could not defragment the HARD disk to improve performance.

• Satellite U400-15E: cannot use Bluetooth

  Hey guys

  Newbie here.
  I just bought a new satellite U400-15e.
  I did as follows.

  The switch market and fn + f8.
  Everything is on and without bluetooth installation came.

  All advice is appreciated.

  Off topic, I bought my laptop in March, but when I registered it, it showed that my warranty ends in November? I thought it was a 1 year warranty.

  Help, please

  Hello

  With regard to the question of Bluetooth:
  Are you sure that your laptop U400-15E has been equipped with Bluetooth module to 100%?
  Check the bottom of the camera! If the BT has been installed, then you should see a few labels of BT.

  With regard to the question of the guarantee:
  Usually you've got a standard one year warranty and it s is available on the first day of purchase.
  But you can extend this standard warranty. If you would register the notebook on the Toshiba page then you would get, second year additional warranty.

• Satellite A100 - Questions about slow start, not in the DMA mode CD drivers

  Hi all

  as you can see I have 3 questions:

  1. my Satellite A100-153 starts very slowly (current running avira antivir and sunbelt pfw only like on my other laptop which is older than this one, but not slow start)-anyone has any idea why (I would be very gratefull because I don't have reinstall win and all my stuff)?

  2 Nero tells me that my CD is not running in DMA mode - where can I check and fix this?

  3. drivers - am I forced the drivers supported on this site or can I use the drivers directly from the manufacturer (ATI for my graphics card, Intel for my chipset realtek for my sound and so on)?

  Help is welcome!

  Hello

  For me, it will be interesting to know what operating system you are using. Anyway, I'll try to give my short opinion on your questions:

  -many other factors may be responsible for slow start. It is usually the OS configuration. I'll try to find an interesting article, how to make faster starting and I will post it here for you.

  --entrer enter in the device IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers Manager, enter the properties for secondary IDE chanel and open the Advanced Settings tab. Is under transfer mode DMA if available? If this isn't the case, set it to please and after reboot check if the problem persists. DMA if available is usually defined as a default value.

  -In general, you can use it but it is well known that manufacturers of graphics card don't support mobile graphics cards and laptop manufacturers are responsible for.

  I recommend you to use the Toshiba drivers only. All of these drivers are put to the test.

  Good bye
