• Re: Satellite L40-139 - 10 error code in the Device Manager on the wireless network card

  I have a toshiba satellite L40-139 and I just instaled windows 7 64 bit on it. Since that time my atheros wireless device will not work. I tried updating the driver and windows but nothing.
  In the device manager says code 10 DEVICE can NOT START.

  Help, please!

  Thank you!

  Hello

  If you read here:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/943104

  The Code 10 error code is generated when the Device Manager has not enough information or error that spread upwards by device drivers is not recognized by Device Manager.
  Then, go to the page of the driver and update the driver. If you do not have to win 7, try the vista driver.

• Satellite L40-139 and Midi interface

  I have Satellite L40-139, which includes a SoundMax sound card (somewhere inside) and I would like to be able to use it as the basis for a music recording Midi put in place, but I can't get the computer to recognize the Phonic Midi to USB interface, I.

  The map SoundMax accepts data Midi and how can I do to make him recognize?

  Hello

  I put t know what you want to do exactly.
  Depending on your message that you try to connect an external 3rd device to the USB port. Am I wrong?
  How a sound chip should recognize this device? I was a little confused m

  However, I think that you should first check if this 3rd party device has been properly recognized and installed on the laptop. It is an essential condition if you want to use.

  PS; If you use the Vista operating system, you need to check if this 3rd party device supports Vista too!

• Satellite L40-139 can boot from a USB device?

  Hello

  I have a new L40-139. Looking through the BIOS I can't find an option to boot from a device USB like a USB HDD or USB flash drive. Could someone confirm if the L40-139 can boot from USB and is thus the configuration of the BIOS for this.

  If she can not someone knows if there are plans for a BIOS update that would allow this?

  I must admit that, although I love the L40, I am disappointed how to limit the BIOS is.

  Thank you

  Hello

  I'm not 100% sure, but as far as I know, you cannot use USB HDD as first boot device. USB floppy Yes, but with external HARD disk drive, it won't work.

• I have Satellite L40-139 and need to restore the factory settings

  The problem is, that the recovery of the program disk does not open automatically and even hold down F8 at the beginning upward does not work as I get another page to the screen showing the details of American Megatrends and no option to return to factory setings.

  Any ideas how I can get around this? This page has only been for about a week.

  Thank you

• Question about the battery life of the Satellite L40-139

  It's maybe a stupid question, but I have a portable Satellite L40-139 and the battery lasts less time, is this correct.
  In the power management, I chose energy-saving. I used to be a mobile system and it could take 2-3 hours. The answers would be great.

  The laptop uses Vista. Am I wrong?
  Well, I don't wonder that you can run Notepad only for an hour approximately.
  Vista needs for more resources as a BONE at the beginning. In addition, there are a few bugs in Vista, who have a bad influence on the performance of the battery!
  You can perform a search in internet for Vista and the problem of battery on laptops and you will find a lot of information.
  The same laptop with XP runs twice as long on battery as with Vista.

• Strange problem on my Satellite L40-139

  I've been strugling with a problem for a while now, and I don't have a lot of aid assistance. Its like my new Toshiba has a memory problem, but I don't know if its caused by Windows Vista or if its HW related.

  This is what happens:

  When I surfed with IE7 og have 7 tabs open at the same time, his similar windows runs out of memory, all of a sudden I can not open a new tab and do a right click on the touchpad does not react. If I can minimize IE7 and right-click on the desktop nothing product.
  If I then close some programs (his only Yahoo Messenger og coreTemp running (coreTemp shows how hot your cpu and min is constantly between og 56 64 degrees celsius)), then right click works again.

  Usually when that happens, I can't even upward Task Manager, but if I close Yahoo Messenger so that I can, and now I see that it is used about 47% memory, under process I can see that:

  Yahoo uses up to 50MB
  IEXPLORER 27-150MB
  og Dwm.exe takes up to 120 MB.

  The problem also happens if Yahoo is not started, so this isn't the cause.

  I disabled aero and minimal use of all things Vista comes with, then the I me maximum performance following most of the instructions of www.Vistaguide.dk but the problem persists whenever I use IE and use more than 7 tabs (this should not happen, and using more than 7 tabs is perfectly normal).

  In addition to surfing the net, I use it for video playback with VLC or GOM player and music from Winamp. I don't play games.
  Here he is never short of memory.

  His Danish Vista Home Premium and in general I think it runs worse than what Home Basic on 2 GB of ram.

  My laptop is a Toshiba satellite L40-139:

  Intel Celeron M 520 clocked at 1.6 Ghz, 2 GB DDR II 667 Mhz (which fits the model), Toshiba 120 GB HDD S - ata, Atheros Wi - fi, 943GML chipset.
  Comes with Norton Internet security pre-installed.

  I put auto tunning high heat: netsh int tcp set global autotuninglev = high

  It has not solved the problem.

  Basically its like Vista is simply out of memory, but I can see in taskmanager which is not the case since there are only 47% of 2 GB of Ram with a 4096 MB swap file.

  What I don't understand, is that there are other people who have a similair system and they do not have this problem.

  I scanned for viruses and other dirt with Dr Web Cure and it found nothing, neither Norton.

  The things that I think could be causing this is:
  1 Norton Internet Security 2007, which could have a flaw that makes this place.
  2. the CPU is has a 533 Mhz FSB and Ram a 667 Mhz FSB (should be only a problem if the Ram is slower than the CPU). Memtest says they are OK.
  3 Vista has an error which allows to not release the memory again, but it stacks up just up until the error occurs.
  4. the fact that there is a flaw in my CPU or chipset.

  If its 4, the Toshiba has a program so I can test it?

  The problem has been there since I bought one even with th initial Ram inserted.

  I love hearing from Toshiba, which may be the cause/solution for this, and if someone else knows it please let me know, I can't be the only one.

  With greetings

  Hello Jan

  You are not alone with this. You won't believe me, but it happens on my two laptops. I use more Satellite M70 with WXP and Satellite P200D with Vista Home Premium. This strange issue with IE7 arrives on two laptops.

  I know with certainty that at the beginning M70 I didn t notice this problem. As you know anytime a Microsoft automatic update and maybe a few patches is responsible for this. Sorry, but I don't know what we can do. Only solution is to close IE7 and IE7 end process running in Task Manager.

  Just for example: I tested it with Opera browser and there is no problem at all. If you want you can test also.

• Problem with Windows XP on Satellite L40-139

  Hello Toshiba user community!

  I'm new here but I'll cut right to the chase with my problem.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L40 - 139 (PSL40E) model that was included with Windows Vista Home Premium installed and all perfectly installed software. I recently got a Windows XP Professional SP2 through MSDNA of my college (a Microsoft service for universities) and has installed because Windows Vista, although very looking shifted the laptop as hell.

  The installation went smoothly. I installed all the drivers that showed the question mark (as the display driver, audio, modem, etc.). I experienced a few problems. They are presented below as well as a few questions:

  1. I can't use the Fn function more. While Fn + F8 works, I can't turn the volume upwards or downwards using Fn + arrow up / Fn + arrow key or any other combination.

  2. the display driver although it shows that it is perfectly installed it seems that it is not.
  a. I do not have the optino of display properties when I right click on the desktop.
  b. I recently installed Gothic I, who had previously worked on my L40 and now after playing the intro, I do not see the menu. It's dark, but the sound can be heard as the navigation menu. If I manage to press new surprise of game, it's always black and sometimes it shows a random graphic error.
  I tried to install the Toshiba page display driver. And after that he has not changed a thing I downloaded one from the Intel site. Same thing!

  Do you know a sollution?

  3 another problem, although as unrelated to the laptop is the for my laptop model Toshiba download page only shows the "how to install Windows XP.pdf" file. " This is for the Windows XP operating system. If you change to Vista you get a lot of pilots. It would almost seem Toshiba would force me to HAVE Vista so that my Satellite wo works properly. Any ideas?

  4. do you know a good tutorial on how to install Windows XP for Toshiba L40 laptop? Especially for the L40 - 139 (PSL40E)?

  5. If Windows XP succeeded withought problem to see my hard drive is necessary to install the driver Toshiba mentions in his XP installation tutorial? I mean he should improve performance or not?

  Thank you in advance,
  I will adjust your answers tomorrow!

  Best regards!

  Robert Mocanu

  Hi Robert,.

  I think that there is no such thing as a tutorial for installing Windows XP on your machine. But you can count the installation instructions provided on the page to Toshiba, because WinXP installation is all about good pilot order.

  Have you tried to select as model number short "all"? You can find many drivers and I am sure that these will work very well for your laptop.
  I'd say reinstall with the Toshiba page display drivers and try again. And install the latest version of direct X 9.

  OK, Gothic I is not a new game, but worth a try anyway.
  Ditto for the FN keys. Just follow the installation instructions and download and run driver configurations.

• Satellite L40 - 139 - after watching the video, I can't use the virtual scrolling

  Hello

  I own a Toshiba Satellite L40-139 under Windows Vista 32-bit. However, I think that this problem only applies to this model as other users are experiencing the same thing.

  I often watch videos online mode full screen (like on YouTube), but when I leave full-screen mode, I noticed that virtual scrolling stops working on the touchpad. This occurs in the latest versions of Internet Explorer and Firefox. I can still move the pointer, but cannot scroll. I also note that the icon in the taskbar freezes, because it does not meet all the movements on the touchpad. I have the latest version of the driver installed (10.0.3.0).

  Is it possible for Toshiba to issue an updated driver for the Synaptics pointing device which solves this problem?

  Thank you

  Hello

  It's the first time that someone has posted this question
  I checked this on my Satellite U400 and quest that; the touchpad works ok
  There may be a registry problem with your operating system who knows
  It would be interesting to know how the touchpad scroll function works by using the new OS installed

• Satellite L40-139 - possible to disable the low battery alarm?

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L40-139 it comes with Windows Vista running. I think the battery is now a little age, because it does not load when the computer is plugged in - although the computer itself is capable of functioning when it is plugged in, which is how I use it.

  Battery sank to about 10%. For this reason, the computer will sound low-battery-warning beep every fifteen seconds or more. This seems to come from the computer itself and not the operating system, it sounds different from low battery alerts in Control Panel > sounds.

  I would like to disable this beep - it is not to tell me anything I don't already know. Until now, the only way to achieve this, I have found is by inhibition of the laptop altogether. But is not ideal, because it means that I can't use any other sound feature on the computer.

  I tried, without success, changing the settings in the control panel > power settings, including lower low and critical battery levels and fix warnings for low battery to "off".

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  Please check the BIOS settings.
  To access the BIOS F2 press Mobile start upward.
  There should be an option called something like low battery alarm
  Remember to save the changes before exiting the BIOS.

• Satellite L40 - 139 with the combination FN + volume problem

  Hello
  at first, I want to say sorry for may English. It's so good, but I'll try to explain my probblem.
  Yesterday I installed the XP system and everything works fine. After installation I can't press FN with the volume I want to say, some with works of function FN buttons, but some of them don't work. Only those function don't switch (FN + volume) volume of work and increase the volume level up/down(FN+ up/down arrow)

  Someone know how to fix/repair it?

  Marcin

  Satellite L40-139 belongs to the * PSL40E * series.
  Where did you find the Toshiba XP drivers for this laptop series?

  To my knowledge at THIS time the XP drivers are not released on the Toshiba driver page and so I guess that a driver missing XP or is not compatible BIOS might be the reason for you question.

  I think you have to wait until all drivers XP and BIOS XP will be available for you series!
