Satellite A35-S159: GLOBAL MODEM?

Hi, I have a Satellite A35-S159. I willl work in Australia for next year and I came across some information recently that said to check if your laptop would work in Australia?

Does anyone know if this brand is a "Global Modem" or I have to buy a 'Local PC Card Modem' on my arrival.

Thank you

Hello

should normally no problem.

You should check if the power adapter is compatible with the Australian powersockets and tension!

For the modem Toshiba provides in europe of a country selection utility to configure the modem for a special country! I think that your Satellite is an American model in order to have to look at http://www.toshibadirect.com/td/b2c/home.to

Good bye

  • Re: How to prevent shutdown when closing lid Satellite A35-S159?

    I just inherited a Toshiba Satellite A35 - s159.I am running XP.

    When I close the lid, Windows stops.
    I like to keep things on, to be able to receive the updates and downloads.
    I see nothing in the 'control panel' to allow me to do.

    In Control Panel, there is "Toshiba power settings" but I seem not to be able to find a way to change a setting in there to keep things running with the lid closed.

    I see a PIN on the display cover that comes in contact with a switch when it is closed, then the computer shuts down.

    Someone at - it take this component out of sharpening? Is this the only solution?

    Hello

    You may disable this option in the settings of Toshiba Power Saver!
    This is without any doubt.

    I put t know what Toshiba Power Saver you but my Power Saver contains two tabs:
    Basic configuration and installation Actions.

    The Actions of the installer tab contains options and then I find the parameter called when I close the lid.
    I put this setting to no action.

    Now, I can close the lid and the laptop would still go and wouldn t stop or go in the booth of fashion.

  • Satellite A35-S159: slow start after restore

    A35 S159 purchased with Windows XP. Booted up one day that all the desktop icons are generic, none of them have worked, System Restore is not available and could not run anything from the command line. Used the recovery CD.
    He initially thought that it was not started at all, but it will actually start and run normally after 10 minutes of sitting in front of the start screen. After the validation, there is a delay, followed by the white loading bar at the bottom of the screen and then the windows splash screen and the Green loading bar and there it is.

    Can boot into safe mode without problem. Tried to go into msconfig, hide or disable all services, disable all startup items and making a selective startup. No change. No problem, indicated in the Device Manager. Ran the diagnosis of hard drive (Hitachi) and who retires.

    What's next?

    Hello

    Usually after recovering the unit with the supplied all Toshiba Recovery CD should work properly. For me, this looks like something wrong with the HARD drive, but it is strange that it is possible to boot into safe mode without any delay.

    Try to start the 'cmd' in the immediate window. Then try using the chkdsk /F command to check the HARD drive.

  • Satellite A35-S159 - can I upgrade the CPU, GPU and HARD drive?

    Hey

    I have one in my possession and I wanted to make a good game.

    I don't know if I'll be able to cause. It hurts thinking may be able to put a processor duo or quad, and I do not know if the CPU will be able to support a really good graphics card, and I also think about changing hard drive.

    Any1 know what hard drives are compatible with what I can use which are good for games?

    Hello!

    I m wondering that you want to upgrade this old notebook. In my view, that a new laptop would be a better solution.

    On the CPU and GPU upgrade I can only say s is not possible and not Toshiba support. The GPU is soldered on the motherboard and t can be exchanged.
    I think you should read this: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

    The HARD drive can be upgraded. This isn t a problem.
    AFAIK the A35 Satellite is equipped with a s IDE HDD and this means that you buy a drive HARD IDE interface up to 128 GB.

  • How to remove HDD on Satellite A35-s159

    How to remove the hard drive on this laptop?

    Hi Barbara,

    I believe A35 are the United States, the equivalent of the European A30 in which case the hard disk is located below the optical drive that will have to be removed first. This is usually held with a screw that can be accessed from the bottom of the laptop (mine is numbered F5 on the case). The optical drive will then be able to slide toward the front of the laptop and the hard drive will be accessible (attached with four screws.

    Kind regards

  • My Satellite A35 suddenly stops

    Hello. I'm new to this forum...
    I have a satellite A35-S159. After working on this laptop for quite awhile, it automatically closes without warning. Need help in this regard.

    Hello

    Just in brief: it is a typical symptom of overheating. The device cannot be cooled properly and when the temperature is too high unit stops suddenly without any warning. It is because of the material.

    Please try to clean the unit. Probably a lot of dust in cooling grill don t allow air circulation.

  • Satellite L305-S5919 - slow modem speed

    Hello people. Right now I have this modem driver - * Toshiba Software Modem for Windows Vista (Agere). * But I'm not all that nice to her performance, so I thought to try another.

    I'm looking at that - is * Motorola Modem Driver for Windows Vista (32/64-bit) *. The information about this said, it is compatible with my model, but I didn't know if it would work as the one I have is Agere (Agere, it's what it came with nine).

    I have a Satellite L305-S5919, Vista 32 bit and Toshiba Software Modem Agere Driver 2.1.77.

    Thank you!

    Hey,.

    I think that the problem is not the driver, it s technology modem itself. You know that the speed of the modem is 56,000 Kbps?

    The point is that most of the websites are already designed for broadband connections, because they have a lot of high-resolution graphics and other multimedia stuff.

    In your case, I would choose another Internet connection ;)

  • Linux live CD on Satellite M70 and Driver Modem

    Hi I want to use Linux Live CD (or USB boot Linux) on 70 M satellite. I tried puppy linux, but it did not recognize my modem and the USB key (I use the dial upwards). I want to know if someone has used linux live CD on this PC and he was able to use the dial-up modem. To this end, if I need a driver (linmodem), which one and where I should get. And what live CD distro I should choose.

    Preference, I like any distribution that can be started from a USB because I n, t want to use my HD at all and boot USB will give me the opportunity to saev my job back in the USB. I only use the Internet (dial-up modem) and word documents (OpenOffice or other), or maybe (not required) I like to watch movies (CD or DVD).

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Try again with the Knoppix Live CD. I didn't try yet but I will do in the future. Get info on http://www.knoppix.org/

    By the way: If you want to use other BONES because of security or do some experiments, you can also try installing the virtual machine. A few days ago, I installed VMware Workstation. There, you can preinstall a few different operating systems and do what you want (Internet and so on).

  • Satellite Pro M70-113: modem - very slow

    Hello

    I have a toshiba satellite pro m70-113 laptop. I bought it in Saudi Arabia, Riyadh.

    The problem is that when I use the modem (dialup) software from toshiba to connect to internet... the connection is very very slow... While on the same line, on my desk speed isn't a problem... on average, I get 1/4th of the speed I get on my desk... and on the same telephone line...

    What is the problem?

    Can someone help me in this... are there any configuration software that can fix this problem?

    Help will be very appreciated...

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I don't know what your desktop device modem, but modems takes care of different speeds.
    You can also check the properties of the modem for laptop.
    Go to the Toshiba software modem properties and check under the tab "modem".
    You will find the maximum port speed. This should be set to the highest value.

    It is also possible that different providers use a different speed of data transmission.
    Some time ago I used a modem and I was very surprised that my speed of data transmission is different on the different suppliers.
    As you can see there are many factors why you don? t get the same speed of modem.

  • Satellite 1800-400: internal modem does not work with Ubuntu Linux?

    Hello

    I try to get the internal modem on my departure from 1800-400 of Satellite under Ubuntu Edgy. All other works out of the box except the modem software and I was wondering if one can be able to help with this.

    I have been on many Linux forums and followed a number of tutorials, but none have worked for me so far.

    Toshiba seems to say it should work, but not enough for me detailed instructions are!
    http://newsletter.toshiba-tro.de/main/main/MachineInfoAus.php?OS=1&machine=119&devices=5&d_ty p = 208

    The modem manufacturer's site say it should work but still not enough instructions

    And found some good info here...

    Hello.

    It seems that this laptop uses a Modem Chip Askey (Lucent)
    I see only one way to use this modem in Linux.
    You must look for the modem a pilot who takes in charge this chip and is designed for the installation of Linux.

    It s very difficult to find the right driver for Linux because there are a lot of different Linux distributions and not all drivers will work.

  • Satellite A100: USB and Modem does not

    Hello!

    My name is Clarisse and I have a Satellite A100, which I use for school. I'm having a problem with its usb ports and modem.
    When I try to connect to the internet, he just say he of no tone and tells me to ensure that lines are connected, who they are and the phone line works certainly, as I checked with my PC and I also checked the phone if it was busy, it wasn't.

    I then try again and a window appears and says that there is something wrong with my modem, how can I fix?

    The other issue is my usb ports who refuse to work, they can't recognize anything I plug (for example, bluetooth adapter, flashdisk, ipod) even though they are installed!

    However, the strange thing is that when I plug in my printer it connects and does its job:(je suis tellement confus et scolaires est devrait commencer bientôt.)

    Can someone help me please?

    Thank you
    Clarisse

    Hello

    In my opinion the modem connection does not work due to the modem settings.
    Go to Device Manager and select the properties of the modem.
    Please select the Modem tab. You will find the option "wait tone before dialing." You must disable (uncheck) this option.

    I guess that the USB ports cannot recognize the external USB ports because of the power.
    The USB ports provide 500mA. It is a standard USB. If external devices use a power greater than 500 ma, so it is possible that the device may not be recognized.

    In such cases, the USB hub with an external power supply can solve these problems.
