  Unfortunately, these service manuals are not for public use and to my knowledge only the Toshiba certified maintainer could have access to these documents and manuals.
  So just say that you will not be able to find such instructions on the page to Toshiba.

  But my first thought was a faulty keyboard. If replacement of the keyboard will not help the jury of the entire system should be replaced because the keyboard controller is a part of the mobo!

  Sorry, but I don't think you'll be able to fix the motherboard.
  If the Board is too bad then it must be replaced

• Satellite M40X-309: change of keyboard

  I recently bought a Satellite M40X-309 in the Portugal. I am very happy with my new laptop except for one detail: I'm Brazilian and accustomed to using Brazilians or US keyboard. The keyboard of the Satellite M40X-309 is different and I can not get used to it, no matter how hard I try.

  Could someone tell me if I can change my keyboard to Americans or Brazilians one? If yes how can I buy it? Anyone know what keyboards are compatible?

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  Keyboard change shouldn't be a problem. It is easy to do and you can do it alone, but in this case, you lose the warranty. You can try to contact the after-sales Service of Toshiba partner to the Portugal and ask them if they can order a US keyboard for you.

  Another way that you can Google a bit more and order one of a few suppliers of laptop parts. I discovered that the American keyboard has number V000052760.

  Good luck!

• Satellite M40X-112: malfunction of the keyboard after you emptied a cup of tea

  Good evening to everyone.

  My girlfriend has emptied her cup of tea on his portable Satellite M40x-112.

  Now everything works except the keys R, F, V, Fn.

  Does anyone have experience with such a problem? The laptop is still not out of warranty.
  So, I don't want to open it to clean the keys by behind.

  So any advice or tips or something else (with the exception of the stupid remarks) would be useful.

  Thank you...

  Fischhaendler

  HEY Bela,

  If you're lucky then spilt tea will only have caused a short-circuit in the keyboard itself and won't not flowed through to the motherboard. In this case, it would be possible to clean the keyboard or have it replaced by an authorized Service partner (to maintain the guarantee).

  Unfortunately, you will not be between the ab and do you much because it will be dismantled and that would invalidate the warranty.

  Kind regards

• Re: Erratic behavior on Satellite M40X

  Hello

  Very often but not always, when I start the laptop (Satellite M40X - 186 Windows XP SP3), after a while, the Windows Media Player popup window. I got close but it reappears etc... also very often, there's erratic behavior: the keyboard is unusable or the letter etc. which appears on the screen is not bound to the key... or the cursor moves in an irrational way.
  I scanned all the files from virus (Avast tool) I reinstalled XP, updated the ATI driver... but this does not appear to have solved the problem.

  No idea what is the cause of this failure?
  Thanks if you can help

  When you start your laptop computer and enter the BIOS settings, you can use keyboard and go to settings?

• Satellite M40X-149: where a memory module?

  Hello

  I have a satellite M40X-149. I believe that my laptop has a faulty memory - gel randomly, sometimes will not start sound cmos etc. However when I opened the plastic lid it seems to be an empty memory slot. Assume that the memory is either on board or possibly under the keyboard as in some other models of Toshiba.

  Could someone tell me first where it is and also if it can be replaced. If it cannot be replaced, is it possible to disable it and use the empty accommodation?

  The machine is out of warranty so take it apart is not a problem

  Thanks in advance
  KeV

  Hello

  Yes, you are right. The laptop supports 2 locations in memory, but only one is scalable user.
  This means that the other is hidden somewhere under the keyboard!
  But if you remove the keyboard or any parts, you will lose the warranty.
  Therefore the slot is called scalable user because the common user could insert the module without having to open Notepad.

  The laptop can be upgraded up to 2048 MB. If one slot can candle 1024Mo!

• Satellite M40X-112 - second RAM slot

  I have the Satellite M40X-112. Where can I find the second RAM slot?

  If you can't find the second RAM slot on the lower part, usually it is under the keyboard.

• Satellite M40X-230 memory upgrade

  Upgrade memory

  I have a satellite M40X-230, most of the documents indicate that it is expandable up to 2 GB of RAM.
  On the underside there a memory expansion slot which will have a 1 GB SODIMM, giving me a total of 1.5 G bytes of RAM.

  Is it possible to add the other 500 MB. (I'm experimenting with Virtual Machines and data bases)

  In case anyone is interested!

  There is a module in memory of 500MByte located on top of the motherboard. Unfortunately this is mounted internally in the case.
  It is located below and slightly to the right of the center of the keyboard.
  However, the casting of the cover of the laptop cover electronics and so it is not accessible by simply removing the keyboard. the top cover should be thrown which also consists of removing the screen.

  Otherwise, the module is mounted in exactly the same type of socket than under the machine.

• Problem starting on satellite M40X-189

  I have a satellite M40X-189 2 years under XP. The problem I have is very slow to start, and I can hear a steady tone. Finally when he started in windows when I go to a prompt BACK or the run button I get a load of vvvvvvvvvvvv running across the screen.

  It seems that there is a problem with the keyboard. Bad, I replaced the keyboard and the error is still present!

  Please can someone shed some light on a fix for this problem?

  Hello

  Maybe it s not the keyboard itself, but the keyboard controller?
  What do you think???

  I put t this issue has something to do with the software installed, as happens in DOS mode, it looks like a motherboard failure, but you know, we can suggest only what could be the problem. For a diagnose exactly the test and verification of the laptop is necessary.
