Satellite L40 - 18z - what motherboard can use

Hello

my laptop has a motherboard very defective toshiba satellite L40 - 18z model no PSL48E-033008EN.
My question is; are there other phones I could use to replace my motherboard with.

I'm looking on ebay etc for a laptop of donors but they are few and far between, where the question on the search for another brand/model that would suit.

Thank you very much.

Hello

Laptop motherboards are always different so that there is not a lot of opportunities.
You must use a motherboard that has been developed for Satellite L40 / Pro L40 series.

But note; new motherboard is one expensive laptop parts maybe that it s better to buy a second hand instead of the new motherboard unit. I think it would be a less costly solution

Good bye

  • Satellite L500-1V1 what keyboard can use?

    Hello

    I have to buy a new keyboard for my Toshiba L500-1V1.
    Is could someone please tell me what keyboards are suitable for Toshiba L500-1V1?

    I have to get it as soon as possible and it seems to be impossible to find an original Toshiba keyboard replacement here in Finland.

    That's why I wonder if a few other brands to the keyboard (e.g. asus, acer, hp, samsung, lenovo) would be suitable for my computer because they are available in stores?

    Thank you in advance!

    Hello

    Satellite L500 supports and is equipped with a standard A4 black + 10key keyboard.
    Usually keyboards released for other series of laptop using the same model (of type A4 + 10key) must be compatible.

    In addition, you can always order a compatible keyboard of authorized partner Toshiba in your country.

  • I can't turn on the Wifi, Satellite L40 - 18Z

    Hello

    I use Satellite L40 - 18Z but I can not turn on Wifi.

    I am very sure that peripheral lla is installed another property and I tried a few ways to turn on the Wifi device but never turned on. Of course, never caught the signal. Rooter has no problem either.

    Manager says Deveice peripheral island works another property. And the driver is correctly installed. But I can't turn on parameter of network or windows Mobility Center.

    It's very embarrassing to write something like that, but I need your help.

    Thank you

    Hello
    You said, did you check if the device is properly installed in Device Manager. Is there a red X on the wlan module in the list? And he must have this name: RTL8187B.

    There are several ways to enable the wlan on your laptop. One, is the hardware switch of your laptop, the other thing you can try is a combination of FN to FN + F8.
    You can control if the WiFi is working when you see the symbol of the LED is on or not.

    Finally, it is a forum for user to user here.

  • Satellite L40 - 18Z: warnings of Tempo that 75% of the memory has been used

    My dad recently bought a satellite L40 - 18z.

    Tempo began to give warnings that 75% of the memory has been used.
    When I checked there a 74 GB HDD with 3 partitions top - 1.46 GB (which I assume is the recovery partition), GB 37.26 labeled 'Vista', containing the OS and all the rest, and finally Go 35.80 labeled 'Data' which is empty.

    The partition 'Data' is necessary?

    Or do I have to move all of the documents on this partition, and if so why not been put there by default?

    My father is not very computer and I find it strange that the hard drive is not that way. It could very easily write the Vista partition and thought it was! And ended up paying someone to put a bigger HDD in or sorting.

    It seems to be no mention of partition 'Data' in the documentation or advice on how to use it.

    > Is the partition 'Data' necessary?
    Well, you can use this partition for data storage.
    I mean you don t need to store files such as mp3, jpg, etc. on the system partition, but on this partition.

  • Installing WXP on Satellite L40 - 18Z

    Hello

    I recently bought a laptop: SATELLITE L40 - 18Z, MODEL No. PSL48E. One of their salesmen dim wit forgot to mention that the warranty expires once you remove the VISTA machine.

    I make music and need for XP as no software has caught with VISTA yet.

    Someone out there has done this on this machine? It works if you download all the drivers for the model of the toshibas download section? When you have to install the drivers and through what media bring you on the machine? Do yuou should reformat the hard drive at all prior to xp?

    I'm not clued by all means on this side of things for any help/advice would be much appreciated!

    Thank you

    That s is not true.
    If you want, you can install the XP. That will not affect the warranty!

    If you want to install the Xp you simply boot from the XP CD.
    Then, you will need to include the SATA (Intel Storage Manager) driver using the F6 key during the installation procedure.

    All or all the drivers needed XP, you should find on the page of the pilot!

    See you soon

  • Satellite L40 - 18Z - how to turn on wireless?

    I have Satellite L40 - 18Z running Windows Vista Service Pack 2.

    I've had a few cases where the wireless seems to have failed. On this instance, the LED at the front does not shine despite the switch is either off or on position. I checked the network card settings and it is activated. I have disabled/enabled the adapter, but without success. I uninstalled and reinstalled the driver - with no success. I checked for the latest drivers, but they are already installed.

    I also deleted and reinstalled the adjacent wireless card to memory, there still without success. The network and sharing Center diagnosis indicates only that the without wire must pass away - but I am unable to do so.

    Any advice would be welcome. Thank you.

    Hello

    The WIFI connection can be activated in different ways: with the hardware switch you have ever tried and key combination FN + F8.
    So have you activated the wireless network card by pressing FN + F8?

    From my own experience, I can say that the WLAN led is only if you use this key combination too.
    Check this box!

    In addition, you wrote on reinstall drivers WLAN you have installed you exactly? The most recent and pre-tested WLAN drivers, you can find the Toshiba site.

    Last but not least, I also updated the BIOS, if nothing else works.

    I just bought a Satellite L40 - 18Z. I tried to connect to the internet wireless, but I get the following message: "this computer doesn't have a card installed and configured wireless network."

    When I bought it I was told that it was active wireless.

    Can anyone help?

    Have you checked if the hardware switch wireless on the front of the laptop is on?

    You have yellow exclamation points?
    The wireless adapter is recognized?

    Maybe you should also update the driver and/or BIOS.
