Satellite L40 - 14F - seeing WiFi and Fn + F8 problem solved

Because my thread about this problem is locked - I'm making a new :)

I have XP Home OS. And now seeing WiFi works OK and the Fn + F8 keys too :)

Why? Because I was change my BIOS to version 5.10 (from 1.60).
The 5.10 version is only for laptop with Windows XP!

Considered better for everyone with this problem :)

Thanks for this comment.

But I think it should be clear to anyone who switches to the XP operating system.
On the Toshiba page, you will find these details and more information.

There is always a description abut the BIOS and OS should we support!

Good bye

  • Word and Office don't work on Satellite L40 - 14F

    Hello?

    I am Irina of Kiew (Ukraine).
    I just bought a Satellite L40 - 14F and can t use Word and Office (Vista). I have no internet at home, so I can't pass the RECORD for Word and Office...
    What should I do?
    Please, answer me!

    It seems that you are unable to activate Office and therefore you cannot use the software.
    Don t be angry with me, but I don't really understand why you ask for the solution.
    The solution is simply. You must activate the Microsoft software ;)

    Generally, the serial key is always placed on the cover of the CD. There must be a label with a compatible serial key.

    If the software was already preinstalled on this laptop, then you need the internet connection to activate this software product.
    Maybe you can take the phone to your friend or a public place with Internet and could enable desktop.

  • Satellite L40 - 14F - can't make my sound card works with XP

    I can't make my sound card works. I tried to install all versions of drivers, but not sound.

    Ultimately, when I installed the drivers for another computer, I could see a sound card in Device Manager, but I got! the driver and it says "the device cannot start. I installed a new original drivers and once more, nothing has changed.

    Is there a possible way to solve this problem?

    Hello

    Satellite L40 - 14F belongs to the series of PSL4CE.
    XP drivers for this series don t exist on the Toshiba page at the moment!

    I have found that the package of XP driver for PSL48, PSL49, PSL4C and PSL4B model number!

    So, it seems that you simply try to install incompatible drivers!

    If I m not wrong not the device uses the Codec Realtek ALC660 chip and chip high definition audio Intel HDA (Azalia)!

    Check the driver from the Intel page and upgrade the XP to the last State at the beginning

  • Satellite L40 - does not start and the screen is completely blank

    Hey guys,.

    A good friend of mine has a laptop Toshiba Satellite L40, who died recently, and she has not been able to find the warranty documents yet, so I wanted to ask if maybe you could help.

    Basically, what's happened is that one day she was using the computer and not have noticed that it was not plugged in to charge, and before completely lost all power, the computer went into automatic hibernation mode.
    It plugged into the charger, the lights indicated that he was in charge. A few hours later she was trying to turn on, but nothing. the computer itself gives off a sound very low, as if turned on, but the screen is completely blank. She said that it's almost like she couldn't make the thing out of hibernation mode. He continues to give sound and some indicators remain lit until the battery is running out of charge.
    She has Windows XP is installed on the computer.

    Perhaps someone could help as to what is happening here? 1 million thanks!

    Hello

    Weird, but have you tried to remove the adaptor AC/DC and battery? Wait one hour and then reconnect the adapter AC/DC and battery. Maybe the laptop restarts.

    If this isn't the case, I think that you need assistance from an authorized service provider. It seems to be a hardware problem and the laptop should be checked by a technician from Notepad to determine the cause of this problem.
    On the Toshiba site, you can search the nearest ASP:

  • Satellite L40 - 17 t - WiFi device has warning yellow sing

    Hello

    I'm trying to fix myself first. That's what I have: Satellite L40-17 t (PSL48E-02N02TRU), RTL8187B, Vista (unfortunately Russian version - I can't take it to a place of repair, here, to the United States), Kaspersky updated (I guess that there is no virus in my system)

    Here's what happens:

    (1) the WiFi on the side only flashes once the laptop when starting, then it turns off (is this normal?)
    (2) there is no link - it has 'unknown network - connect only to local '. The other computer works fine with the Lynksis
    3) there is a yellow exclamation next to the Realtek wireless controller
    (4) in its General properties, there is an error 37

    That's what I tried:

    (1) I tried to update the driver for the properties, but it is said that it didn't need to be updated
    (2) I tried to delete the form the menu device driver and then reinstall it from USB key (I extracted the driver from Toshiba website to a flash drive). When the installation is complete, it says it is complete, but the State in the menu, it says that it could not install the driver - consult the manufacturer.

    Once when I turned on the laptop it started to run a system recovery, but after that even the keyboard stopped working. Now, there is no keyboard, no WiFi, no same connection through the cable - it says unknown network. Everything that used to work before.

    Please help, please tell me could this be something I can fix on my own, or look at it as a dead-end?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Hmm for me it looks like a driver simply issue first of all, I would recommend deletion of the current WLAN driver. Then go to Device Manager > right click on the WLAN card > Uninstall. Then, restart your computer. Now, run a registry cleaner like CCleaner (freeware) and clean the registry. He must find the old and bad registry keys and delete all the. Then reboot again and now download & install the latest Portal WLAN Toshiba WLAN driver:

    I'm not quite what could be wrong but I could make some assumptions m

    I think that might have something to do with the motherboard failure
    For me, it's only a plausible explanation maybe some problems with electronic or similar food. I think that the laptop should be checked by a technician of ASP.
    Guys could test different adapters and batteries and could finally run a diagnostic test that could help diagnose the failure.

  • Satellite L40 USB, wireless, modem, and its failure

    I'm trying to solve a Toshiba Satellite L40 and ask yourself how I diagnose a hardware failure.
    Problem is that the free wireless and sound had stopped working and it would freeze whenever a USB device has been inserted.

    Decided to do the new install of XP, but it failed each time to 34 minutes.
    I've suspected of hardware failure as well as a USB was curved touching another PIN to cause a short circuit.
    Bent it back but install still failed at 34 minutes.

    Remove the wireless card, always not so I removed the modem and it went through without error.
    Installation of two causes fall in XP install.
    Have installed all the latest drivers and even flashed the BIOS, however, still have the following problems:
    Insertion of a USB device causes yet portable no freeze, no sound and wireless / modem not picked up by windows during the installation after the installation.

    Shows Device Manager:
    1 exclamation point on "Microsoft UAA bus driver for High Def Audio"
    2 "unknown device" in the USB controllers but not exclamation mark - peripheral USB not connected.

    It is possible that the 'short' USB has damaged a controller on the motherboard is causing the failure of these devices?

    Any help would be appreciated

    > 1. Exclamation point on "Microsoft UAA bus driver for High Def Audio"
    Win Xp requires the Sp2 and Sp3.
    Patches are part of service packs and are necessary for its work.

    > 2. "Unknown device" in USB controllers but no exclamation point - USB devices not plugged in.
    The internal webcam is connected to the USB controller then perhaps, you add the webcam software.
    Otherwise this could have something to do with the USB port defective

    Yesterday, I bought my pc and I'm still not functioning normally.

    Initially, I have no cd with drivers.
    I need to download some.

    Hello

    Don t know how you tried to install the SATA drivers, but this must be done without a doubt before, you are going to install the XP operating system.
    During the installation process you must press the F6 key to include the drivers of external USB FDD.
    I you don t have an external USB FDD drive and then use the 3rd party software called nLite to create a new XP CD and include the SATA drivers.

    Driver SATA can be found in the Intel Matrix Storage Manager which can also be downloaded from the Intel page.

    Are sure you that you have enabled the WLan switch on the side of the laptop?
    Only this switch controls the WLan light!

    If the WLAN led does not illuminate after that you have activated the WLan switch there is something wrong with the hardware.

    then if there is something wrong with the hardware of notebooks is needed the help of ASP.
