  Hello...

  I'm on Toshiba Satellite A40-151 the DVD for this broken but this isn't worth it.
  The problem is that I can't enter the setup (BIOS) to boot from a different boot device, or I do not now how to enter.

  Help, please

  Hello

  I think you have a Toshiba BIOS.
  In this case you must press the ESC key immediately after the laptop has been powered. Try to press the button several times

  By the way; You can also use the F12 key to get the boot menu.
  Then you could easily choose your boot device
  This also works

• Satellite A40-121: how to open and replace the cooling module

  Hi all

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A40-121 for 4 years and was very happy with his performance so far. Just recently, one of the fans is undeliverable noisy and very quickly becomes very hot, so I think I have to change. (I'm not a computer technician, but I live somewhere in the middle of nowhere in China, no support available at all...).

  I opened my laptop, but now the covering is always fixed somewhere in the Middle, no screws left!

  Do you need some pictures or even a manual how to open my laptop? I could send the vehicle damaged to friends in Germany and they would try to get a new...

  Thanks a lot for your help!

  As far as I know that two lovers coling are fixed by two screws. When you remove the two of them, you should be able to remove the cooling fans. Put simply irrelevant.

  Do you have a recovery CD?
  This disc is necessary if you want to restore the laptop back to factory settings.

  If you n t have this disc then you will need to use a clean Microsoft Windows CD (Win XP would be the best) for the installation of the OS.

  Toshiba drivers can be downloaded from the European driver Toshiba page
  Because this device is an oldie, the drivers have been moved to the archives (in the product type click on archive).

• Satellite A40-271: how to remove the BIOS password?

  Hello

  Sorry for my English.

  I have to take the bios password on a Toshiba Satellite A40-271-PSA40E-09XD2-SP

  I took out battery of the bios for a day or two, obviously without the laptop battery and the password of the bios keeps on.
  Could you help me please?, I need your experience to solve this problem of this laptop.

  With regards to the King.
  Mikel Pastor

  Hello

  You will not delete the BIOS password if you remove the CMOS battery.
  This procedure has worked on the common desktop PC, but it will not work on Toshiba laptops.

  The unknown BIOS password can be removed only by a Toshiba ASP because this requires a special procedure!

  So contact the ASP in your country for assistance!

• Satellite L350-277 - how to recover to factory settings?

  I had a lot of problems with my Satellite L350-277. I had already created a recovery to help drive the Tech that was installed on the laptop guy.

  In any case, it is time to reinstall again to the State of the plant. Thoughtless I pulled a drive of my computer Vista laptop satellite (I thought it was the original disc). All goes well until it restarts after you install windows system. On the screen was the warning that the product key was wrong, that's when I noticed the Vista on the screen. So I tracked down to the copy I made, it was not in the channel where I put the original his was among all the garbage I've had in the area (where I put all the waste). He was full of scratches and it does not load.

  What I had actually done using the Vista disc has been clear the program on the D drive that reads from Windows 7. I ended up going to the PCWorld Tech guys. They have reinstalled windows 7 for the cost of £50. I didn't mind that I got my laptop working again. What I did not know according to them, was I can't create a recovery disk.

  So to my question. Can I get my laptop back with all Toshiba knick knacks, so that its possible to create a restore disk. If not, can I get a Windows 7 disc installation program, download all drivers & create a restore disk in case of something that happens and I can reinstall windows 7? Get cramps in my fingers now. I'm not going on a little lol.

  Hey Buddy,

  That s a little confused is your story...

  Normally you get factory settings if you are using the Toshiba recovery disc. It will restore the pre-installed Windows version that came with your laptop.

  If you have Windows 7, you can t create a Toshiba Recovery disk. Only possible on what s preinstalled Windows from Toshiba, but if you install your own copy, you can create such a floppy.

  If you have the original operating system back, you can order a recovery disc Toshiba here:

  Hello

  I am aware that the driver for my on-board graphics card is outdated.
  When I download a updated from ATI driver and try to install, it tells me that I can't install the update the system there and contact Toshiba for the updates.

  Please can someone tell how can I get a driver updates for this card on my Satellite Pro A100 series?

  Concerning

  Macca.

  Hello

  You can not install drivers ATI ATI site because these drivers are not designed and certified for Toshiba laptops.
  These drivers can affect the functionality of notebooks and in worst cases could overheat your GPU

  * So if you want to use these drivers, you can do it but only at your own risk! *

  You can install this driver in Device Manager;
  You must use the Advanced installation procedure and you will have to indicate where the graphic driver files were stored on the HARD drive

  Hello

  I m wondering that you have installed Windows 7 on this good old classic. In my opinion Windows XP would be the best choice, but ok, you can do what you want ;)

  Anyway, AFAIK your laptop is equipped with an Intel graphics card then I recommend to download the driver form Intel directly because the Web from Toshiba site displays only the Windows XP display drivers.

• Satellite A210-133: how to install Intel or via controller usb on windows 7

  Hello!

  I have a toshiba satellite a210-133 that I level to the 32-bit version of windows 7.
  All have been installed at the end, but I an intraoral machine that is connected by usb and it does not work properly.

  I questioned the manifacture of the machine and they said she wants an Intel controller or VIA USB to work properly.
  so I look at my computer\manage and I saw that
  I don't have this controller.

  Can you help me with this?

  Hi mate

  To be honest I m not very well what USB controller you mean exactly.
  The phone supports common USB 2.0 ports.
  Windows 7 provides own drivers USB of Microsoft, who controls this USB 2.0 ports.

  If the n t USB ports work correctly, then you should check if you need to install the chipset driver.
  Usually such driver chipset on the chipset manufacturer page.
  As far as I know the laptop uses the chipset AMD M690V (name of code RS690MC + SB600)
  So check that.

  In addition several devices needs a 3rd USB driver clean.
  I put t know if you intraoral machine needs these drivers, but I think that the manufacturer of this device must know this. So if you need this driver, please get in touch with the manufacturer of the intraoral machine to get this software.

• How to install a hard drive more on a Windows Server machine?

  Disable windows server and install the new hard drive

  I installed windows on a hard drive server but now I want to turn off and install on a new larger hard drive. How can I go about it?

  Hello

   
  There are a few options that you can try:
   
   
  1. format the hard drive.
   
  2. replace a new operating system. When media starts, you are presented with the option to format the drive before installation.
   
  3. If it is a separate partition, and you're dual-boot, you may need to set your boot options after formatting your partition WS2008. Demarrer start on your older operating system drive, and then select the boot option fix for your existing partition from the operating system.
   
  Note: If both the HARD drive is connected to the same machine, start from the media format of the previous installation on the old HDD and install the operating system on the new HARD drive.

• Satellite Pro M30 - how to recover data?

  I get a disk read error when I try to start my Sat Pro M30 running XP Pro, right after the In Touch with screen Toshiba.

  Using the Revovery DVD that came with the computer when buying and the Advanced mode entry, I try to use the local Image file checking. It does not seem to find any Image file. Is it possible to recover or reconstruct the image file?

  There is some data that I would recover from the HD, so I'll try to avoid reinstalling the system until I got the files.

  Attempted to read the HD using a cabinette and a new NP running Vista, but it did not work. Is there a general problem reading a HD XP, Vista?

  Suggestions how to do to retrieve the data would be very appreciated!

  Johan

  cabinette? Do you mean 'hard drive USB cart?

  To recover your data, you can connect the HARD drive using a USB adapter to another PC on XP or Vista. The drive should appear as a drive letter (for example, drive E :), and you will be able to copy the files.

  When you say "but it did not work", what exactly was the problem?

• Satellite Pro P100: How to recover BONES after replacing HARD drive

  Hello

  I bought a satellite Pro P100, and I want to change my hard drive
  I have the CD restored, but I think that this will not work with a new hard drive!
  What can I do to recover my windows?

  Sorry for my englich!

  Thank you

  Hey Phillipe,

  Your recovery CD works on what hard drive install you in your laptop. Are the only factors affecting the hard disk of your choice: -.

  1. compatibility of the BIOS (should not be a problem with the P100 model)
  This model mainly old laptop impact where the BIOS could not recognize larger drives.

  2 form factor
  You should make sure that the disc you choose has the same physical dimensions as your
  existing drive.

  3 speed
  Disks hard more quickly improve access times so check out 5400 and 7200 RPM. (there may be a problem
  with the generation of heat so 5400 RPM is probably better than 7200)

  The are no problem with Windows licenses as the license applies to the operating system itself and not on the hard disk on which it is installed.

  Kind regards
