Satellite L40-139: can I put the Core 2 Duo CPU?

• 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 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

• Satellite L40: How can I recover the files from the hard drive

  Hello

  Can someone help me please. About a week ago I started to have a clicking sound coming from my laptop Satellite L40. My laptop froze and when I restarted, I was directed to the system configuration with a message at the bottom saying
  "Pri Master Hard Disk Drive SMART status bad, Backup and replace."
  Press F2 to assume. »

  I pressed F2, but I don't have any idea what to do?

  Can someone tell me how do I backup my files until my HDD disappeared completely or if it was can I use another device to get down them.

  I tried using the recovery disk, but the disk does not respond?

  Help, please

  Pete

  Hello

  This message looks like a warning of S.M.A.R.T. notification
  This means that your HARD disk will eventually fail.
  It can happen in the next few days or it can't happen for a few months but the SMART feature has detected that the drive is wrong then it should be replaced as soon as possible.
  It seems that your laptop is not very old, so the warranty should cover all replacements.

  I see only one way to access and back up the data. Eventually, you could buy an external enclosure SATA USB HARD drive and was able to connect the HARD drive to another computer.
  I don't know if you will be able to access the HARD drive because of the failure, but if you want you can try this m.

  Good luck

• Satellite 1900-303: can I put the hard drive 120 GB

  I have a S1900-303 and I think to raise the 120 GB hard drive. What are the problems, if any, are that I meet and I can do froom the Toshiba startup disk or do I just install XP from a XP disc?

  Hello

  That I myself remember Satellite 1900-303 has been delivered with the 30 GB HARD drive.
  So, in my opinion, 120 GB HARD drive size is too big and I presume that the BIOS of the laptop will not recognize the HARD drive!

  I think you can use a 40 GB, 60 GB and a 80 GB HARD disk.

  PS: you must search the HARD disk with the IDE (ATA-5) increased!

  Good luck and have a nice day

• The Core 2 Duo CPU runs on the Qosmio G30?

  Question is as follows:
  In 2 months, Intel will come with Core 2 Duo/merom cpu for laptop.
  Then PC laptop toshiba qosmio todays will support these processors for an upgrade?
  And I wonder generally how much can be improved with a toshiba laptop?
  As if I want to have the e-sata on this laptop. Maybe not supported by the chipset?

  Hello

  AFAIK the Qosmio G30 were delivered for example with Intel Core Duo Yonah processor T2400 1.83 GHz.
  But according to mu, it is not possible to upgrade laptops with the other processors.
  One of the reasons could be an overheating problem.
  Processors more produce more heat and therefore the temperature rises of critical level. In this case the unit will stop automatically.

• Satellite Pro A60: Can I put the graphics card ATI Radeon 7000

  I have an A60 Satellite with the Mobility Radeon 7000 Graphics Pro. I play world of Warcraft, but it won't work on the laptop, because this graphical configuration is not supported. Is is possible to upgrade to a better?

  I was told that it is not possible because the chip is attached to the motherboard.

  Or Nick

  Unfortunately, the graphics card laptop cannot be upgraded. It is simply not possible due to the architecture of the laptop. Laptops are just different and you should know that only a few parts such as the memory or HARD drive are extensible.

  You can try to use a card external chart like this for example:

  But I m not sure if it s really an option.

• 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
