Satellite M40-276: sound card is shown to the registry sometimes not

I have a sound problem. Sometimes the sound card is shown to the registry sometimes not.
I fixed my laptop, but there is no sound card.
Sorry for my bad English

Hello

First of all, I would like to know if you have problems with the sound.
Second, check device manager if the sound card driver has been properly installed. If not then you should see a yellow exclamation next to the card (Controller)

What you can do is download the driver of his most recent on the Toshiba site, then install it on the laptop.

  • Satellite M40-276 - memory not detected in the Bios upgrade

    Hi people!

    New kid on the block!

    I have a client with a toshiba Satellite m40-276. I've updated his memory to give it a little more to play with...

    Went into the bios to see if everything was OK but no projected additional memory. I removed the new and old memory and put in the new 1 GB module and restart the computer.
    The bios has not yet changed the size of the old memory?

    Went to windows and of course that the memory has been detected it normally?
    I added the other memory module and went into the bios again, but no change it?

    Windows, however, recognized that the two modules?

    His computer is the same bios to factory and has never been updated.

    My questions are... why the bios doesn't recognize the upgrade memory? It will help in upgrading the bios?

    Enjoy all the suggestions I can get on this issue.

    Thank you

    Generally, if you upgrade RAM using tested compatible modules, that should be recognized correctly.
    We do not know what modules you use, and I guess that there is a compatibility issue.

    RAM on Satellite M40 276 can scale up to 2 GB of RAM and compatible modules are:
    DDR2 400/533 256 MB (PA3389U - 1 M 25)
    512 MB DDR2-400/533 (PA3412U - 1 M 51)
    1 GB OF DDR2 400/533 (PA3411U-1M1G)

  • Windows on Satellite M40-276 - no visible HARD drive installation

    Hello

    Since the end of the week, I had time to start my Toshiba Satellite M40-276 (PSM44E)...

    I installed Windows XP Pro, I don't remember installing any kind of SATA/PATA drivers, but unfortunately Windows Setup does not recognize the hard drive installed, which was never changed.

    Now, I have discovered that the hard disk sometimes does not appear in the BIOS?
    Is there any type of driver that I can download and include in a Windows installation CD?

    When I start the laptop with Knoppix 5.1.1 I can copy and access to all files on NTFS formatted disks, the hard drive itself should be well (im checking with HDD Regenerator v1.51 on a Boot CD for the moment).

    And I have another question - y at - it an update of the BIOS for the Satellite M40-276 (PSM44E) which can be flashed on a boot CD? On the official homepage I can only find the update of the BIOS Windows :(

    Thanks for your patience...

    Best regards

    Hello

    Have you tried to reinstall the OS from the Toshiba restore CD? Or did you use the clean Windows XP CD?

    AFAIK the M40 supports a SATA HDD and the laptop was equipped with a SATA HDD controller.
    Windows XP with SP2 should recognize the HARD disk properly.
    If your XP doesn t contains SP2 and include it using the program nLite

    > And I have another question - y at - it an update of the BIOS for the Satellite M40-276 (PSM44E) which can be flashed on a boot CD? On the official homepage, I can only find the Windows BIOS update

    No, only the win-version of the BIOS is available on the Toshiba page!

  • Satellite M40-136: network card is damage

    Hello

    I have a satellite M40-136, which is a little more than 2 years. I have cable broadband installed and this had led me to discover that I have a problem with my network card (a Marvell Yukon map I think).

    I had guys on the network at work to check the laptop and they say either the network adapter connection is loose or the card is damaged.
    I rang one of their guys said tech that I need a new main board because the network cards are integrated on all laptops and PC WORLD.

    Is this correct? If it is then it will cost an arm and a leg to fix it.

    Nicky

    Well, that's good.
    Map of LAN (RJ45) is soldered on the motherboard.
    Perhaps an independent technician with experience might be able to solve this problem, but in general, the motherboard should be replaced.

    The motherboard is one of the expensive parts and you are right; the new Council is costing a fortune

    I need sound card for Windows 7 update.

    The model of car audio is Conexant CX20468-31 AC97 Audio sound card.

    Please help me

    Hey Buddy

    What to say first of all that you will get not the official drivers for this laptop for Windows 7 or Vista.
    This laptop is oldie and I doubt that pilots will be released.

    By reading this forum threads I've noticed that most of the user using the driver on Win 7 OS Vista.
    Maybe you should google for Conexant AC97 Vista driver and should try a Vista on Windows 7 driver

    I use a wireless LAN via a router. the connection is broken down into periods of time, sometimes for 2 seconds, sometimes half an hour. my phone says company technical support, it is perhaps due to the incompatibility of my network wireless adapter WEP. I use a WEP key/128 bit / hexadecimal... could someone please give me a tip how to configure my WiFi card so that it works continuously.

    Hello

    I read a few topics that have been discussed in this similar subject forum with a BG 2200 wireless card and it seems that a new wireless driver update could solve this problem. I recommend to download the driver from the Intel site and install it.

    Hello

    I think it would be best if you try the realtek driver from the homepage of manufacturers (http://www.realtek.com.tw/). This driver should work no doubt, my machine gives sound without problems with only the drivers.

  • On Satellite L650-17R sound card problem

    Hello
    I have my laptop connected to external speakers. For increasing the external speaker volume level, I had a static discharge between my Palm and the speaker sound control.
    After this event disappeared (also the internal speakers). After several reboots my soundcard was back to normal.

    What happened to the sound card and should I go to service center (could it be, this sound card has been somewhat damaged)?

    And what is now with your laptop, speakers and sounds?
    Everything works correctly (without speakers)?

    You can use internal speakers again?
    What happens if you connect another device (headset)?

    For example, the light and the eco button does not...

    And the fn keys doesn't work too well. I remember that before, when I press the fn a menu appears at the top of the screen but now it doesn't. And some fn keys does not work too...

    What can I do? any help?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello
    VAP (value added package) and the utility command buttons Toshiba Flash card supported.
    Support of flash memory card utility is required for the functionality of the FN button!

    + My recommendation is: +.

    Uninstall both tools initially
    Install CCLeaner (it s freeware) and reboot the laptop
    Clean and repair the registry by using the CCLeaner.
    (Reboot once more, download and install the utility VAP) 1 and 2) supported Flash memory card
    Restart and run tests!

    Good luck

  • Card error"video or the driver does not support alpha separate mixture, glow will be disabled" when running COD4

    Original title: VGA

    When I run COD4 it says ' error during initialization: video card or the driver does not support alpha separate mixture, glow will be disabled.
    No idea why this is happening?

    There are maybe a few settings in the options/preferences menu of COD.  Your best way is to ask in a support forum for COD.

    In the future (or), before you buy a new game, visit Can You Run It to see if your hardware supports the minimum requirements of the game.
