• Satellite M40 - 142, stereo audio input

  I can 'stereo' record through the microphone in Satellite M40 - 142?
  It is possible to have a line-input/output stereo or mono only?

  Hello

  As far as I know the line output (headphone jack) allows the connection of stereo headphones (16 Ohm min.) or a different audio output device. When you connect headphones, the internal speaker is automatically disabled. The input line (Jack Microphone) allows to connect a monaural microphone or other audio input device.

  Good bye

• Satellite M40 - problem USB

  Hello

  I am the owner of a Satellite M40-129 and it seems, I have problems with USB.

  When I stopped the WinXP system, I think that it is in English, hibernate mode and try to restart, I get a blue screen with the text and with a failure message, the file "usbport.sys" caused the crash.
  In addition, I use all three usb ports. On, I use a USB 2.0 on the other Hub usb hub 1.1 and the mouse directly on the third port. Since a few days, I installed a printer multifunction Brother on the USB 2.0 hub, but from the beginning of the system, I can't connect to the internet, because I always get a new failure message, that the (Allied Telesyn AT AR215) DSL modem is already in use or another usb device is improperly installed. To solve the problem, I tried almost all the positions of USB port for both devices and I de - and reinstalled the two train several times. But in addition, I have updated the BIOS yesterday, but without success. No, I use either only the internet with disconneted printer or the printer does not have access to the internet until you restart without connected printer.

  I hope someone can help.
  Thank you

  HI Thomas

  Sorry, but it is not easy to give you a good explanation. As far as I know a few other components materials don t support hibernation procedure. The problem is that if the unit goes into hibernation mode every process must be stopped and some of them cannot be stopped on the easy way and stop correctly but forced to shut down. I'm sure that your device goes into hibernation correctly mode if there is no external device. Am I wrong?

  Try to remove all external devices and after that, go to the Device Manager. Remove the USB ports and restart the device. After a reboot all components will be recognized and installed correctly. Check if the modem works correctly if there are no other USB devices connected to the laptop.

• Tab key does not work for text input areas in Captivate 3

  I'm building a software simulation of training where I am using text input boxes.  Some use the enter as a shortcut key, some use the tab key.  Those who use the keys work well, failure caption works by forced entry when you press Enter, it advances to the next screen.  Those who use the Tab key does not at all.  The legend of failure does not work and the Tab key does not advance to the next screen.  I compared to those that work and those that don't work and I see no difference.  I set the text entry box to pause at the end of the slide so that it should not be a problem here.  I even tried to have the action 'to success"to be continue rather than go to the next slide and use a click box using the Tab key as a shortcut to move to the next screen - nothing helps!  Is it possible that the Tab key could have been turned off somehow?  I'm totally at a loss, please help!

  Thank you!

• Satellite M40: installation of Windows 7 Home Premium

  Hello

  I am trying to upgrade my Satellite M40 (PSM40A - 03 K 009) for Windows 7 Home Premium, but towards the end of the installation, my laptop reboots and freezes you try to start Windows 7.

  I restarted in safe mode, and it seems to get stuck loading \windows\system32\drivers\classpnp.sys.

  I have tried everything I can think: Startup Repair running on the installation disc, install the latest versions of the drivers, update BIOS, disk reformatting, etc, but nothing seems to work.

  Can anyone help?

  See you soon

  Hello Rob

  Please don t get me wrong, but this old notebook was designed for Windows XP Home edition. I imagine that you have problems with the installation of Win7, but I'm afraid that there is not much you can do about it.

  This laptop old models are not supported for Win7 and Toshiba will not offer some updates as the BIOS update. If you want to use the newer operating system probably you must also update your hardware. Maybe it's time for the new laptop computer. ;)

• Difficulty of text input

  Whenever I'm in an area of text input in Firefox mobile, it is extremely difficult to get the text that is entered correctly. Firefox "stutters", hesitating before accepting most of the characters and will usually insert a space between each of them and never only one of them as well. This forces me to go back through the entrance once I have completed and delete all added spaces. I also invariably have to retype all the 'i's, because Firefox has converted to capital I's, seeing them as independent. It is a constant problem with Firefox endless. It never goes away.

  In addition, Firefox often randomly will close the window keyboard and suddenly will return to the main screen, sometimes taking on itself to press < return > keyboard in the process, usually having a bad entrance result and forcing me to laboriously start all over again.

  I love Firefox on my desktop and would gladly use it on my mobile as well, but right now, the only time wherever I ever use Firefox mobile is when I make a large download, because it manages downloads better than the default Android browser. For all other uses, it is simply too awkward, with the fiasco of text entry and done a very unpleasant experience.

  We have the best compatibility with the current keyboard. Swype or Swiftkey or similar keyboards may cause problems. You can switch quickly tapping long on an input in Firefox field and choosing "select input method.

  We have better support of 3rd keyboard part. This work must be carried out in March or April of the year.

  Hi majed_m_j,

  > When I try to update the program to my laptop on my account in the Web from Toshiba site
  To be honest I m a bit confused. Which account you average and where you try to download updates?

  On your external HARD drive: you get a blue screen, it's just?
  Well, have you tested the disk external DRIVE on another computer? If this is not the case, this!

• Satellite M40: BIOS update failure is covered by the warranty?

  Hello

  I own a satellite M40. I had some problem with it, and tried to update the bios to see if he could he solved.
  I flashed the bios with the windows-based utility, but the shutted of the computer down without any warning.

  Now the laptop comes on only 1 or 2 and then put off the coast.

  I bought this Toshiba, 10 months ago. So, is an update of the bios failed outside the warranty?

  Thank you

• 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)

• Satellite M40-244 - cannot start from CD after driver change

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite M40-244 and the original DVD drive is faulty. So I changed the drive with one that is exactly the same (same brand, same date of manufacture).

  Under Windows, the new disk is recognized and works perfectly. However, when I try to boot from the CD, I am not able to do. I successfully changed the boot sequence in the bios, I tried all possible combinations without success.

  One thing I remember is that when I tried to boot from the faulty driver, I got the message 'Not bootable CD' (the tested CD is bootable and tested on other computers)

  Any idea anyone, I desperately need to install a new OS. :-(

  Hello

  I doubt that you can boot from CD t if your drive works properly in Windows...
  You can try another disc of starting, for example the Toshiba recovery disc or the disc from Microsoft, please?

  Alternative try to load the default settings in the BIOS.

  Good luck! :)

• Weird noises near the processor on Satellite M40

  I have a laptop Satellite M40-243, I sent it to the service under warranty for a graphic display problem.
  He came back yesterday, now it works well, but the processor emits weird noises.

  Warranty service is unwilling to fix this because "there isn't any disfonctionnementsa!?

  Listen to these sounds: http://yang69.evoconcept.net/sounds/bruitsproc.mp3

  Is this normal?
  I think that no.

  (Sorry for my bad English :)

  This is definitely not normal and you should contact service again as soon as possible. I put t know what it may be exactly, but this is the case for the service.

• Satellite M40-265 LCD displays the image complete but crushed

  Satellite M40-265 LCD displays the image complete but crushed on two-thirds of the screen

  When my Satellite M40 - 265 ATIMobility Radeon X 700 and omega 3.8442, Windows Xp drivers, Sp3 boots by setting the LCD + analog RGB, initially only displays on the external screen after startup can be switched with Fn + F5 on LCD. Then appears on the LCD, the complete picture but only two thirds of the screen, third, the right is black. It works so well when the external monitor is not connected during the boot.

  When defini set to auto, select the display to the computer starts only when an external monitor is connected, then after that, I spent in the LCD screen.
  Damage to the inverter is excluded as already checked. Inspect visually the cable of the LCD displays nothing. Beside the left speaker, a ground wire (black) to screwed, but it is s t connected anywhere.

  Starting in safe mode is possible to use a display fullscreen on external

  Hello

  The M40 is a not sure oldie about the available settings in the BIOS and in the graphics options, but I think you should check the settings of the graphics card ATI Catalyst.
  I remember that ATI catalyst supports certain options such as resizing the Image. Here you can select the image scale Panel option full size
  In addition, you must set the resolution on the internal screen at native resolution of 1280 x 800
  I think that the external monitor supports the resolution, which is not the same thing as the screen internal.

• Satellite M40 - 244--> Boot from a USB

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite m40-244 with a DVD player which unfortunately is out of service.

  I would like to know if it is possible to boot from a USB key to reinstall Windows or Linux. In the BIOS there only HDD, floppy, CD-ROM, and LAN drive options.

  Does anyone know how to boot from a USB? I tried an external USB DVD drive, it does not work. I don't know if I'm doing the right way.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  As far as I know that of not possible because the M40 BIOS does not support this!
  As you mentioned in your ad; There is only one option for booting from the HARD drive, ODD, LAN and USB FDD (floppy)

  I can't find any reference to the M40 model PSM43A - 11000H drivers on any website of Toshiba.

  So search for Satellite M43 and then you can find all the drivers! :)
