• Portege M400 - where the memory?

  Hello

  Can someone tell me where on a Portege M400, the memories are hidden?

  Hello!

  I m not a technician phone but as far as I know locations of memory on this laptop are placed under the keyboard. You must also remove the keyboard and the other parties. It's a little tricky.

  I think the best way is that you ask a technician for laptop. They have enough experience to Exchange or upgrade the RAM.

• Satellite M40X-230: the display will not stay in position

  Laptop - satellite m40x - 230

  Can someone help me, when I opened my laptop the movements of the screen on the hinges back about an inch freely instead of being closed, is anyway it can be tightened?

  Is the case please let me know.

  See you soon

  Hello

  I suppose that the left or right hinge becomes tense and so the lid doesn't it stay the right position.
  Unfortunately, I n t think you can resolve it the other side.
  I think that the hinges need to be replaced. Try to contact Toshiba service partner in your country.

  Hello!
  I have Toshiba Satellite L40 equipped 14F of Windows Vista.

  Diagnostic tools noted memory problems with my hardware.
  Now what?

  My laptop is new, I bought it on 28.12.2007.

  If you have problems with your hardware then don t waste any time and contact huh ASP in your country for a control.
  If there are a few problems with the equipment the warranty should cover everything.

  Good luck

• Satellite M40: Where the graphical utility to display the WLan?

  I got the Satellite M40 system after some disk problems, but then I couldn't find the graphical tool displays networks wireless in the vicinity.

  I searched among the drivers in the support page, but there is nothing that I could use. I would appreciate if someone had a direction where search - I don't know the name.

  I also have the original Toshiba recovery disks.

  Hello

  For WLAN and WIFI configuration you can use the Windows settings. In this case, under connection WLAN properties, you will find an option called display the icon in the tray... when it is connected you can see a small symbol shows the power of the signal.

  While you can do if you use the Intel wireless client. If you n t have one that I recommend you visit the Toshiba WLAN website under http://aps.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/

  You can find the most recent driver for your WLAN card including customer Intel wireless that allows you full control of your home network. Install this client and you'll get what you want.

• Satellite M40X-149 the use with a digital projector HP 3130

  Hi, new to this, so apologies before you start!

  I have my M30 laptop and I am trying to link it to a new digital projector - a HP3130.
  I connected it, turned everything on, began a slide show on my laptop... toggled buttons FN/F5 (a screen comes up with three images on it, but not the choice on how to choose or use) and nothing appears on the screen.

  What should I do to make them work together?
  Any ideas please?
  Thank you very much.

  Paul

  What you need to do is to switch to projector before you start any application.
  So when you see Office use only FN + F5 key combination to switch to the projector.
  When the desktop is displayed, it start the slide show.

• Satellite M40X fan makes his sometimes strange

  Hello

  I have a problem with my Satellite M40X
  Sometimes the fan one his strange, something like that had problem with moving
  something like "wrrrrr", then it stops making noise and works normally
  What can be wrong?

  I have also noticed that if I close the windows abnormally and back on the fan is working full speed all the time
  regardless of the degree of activity is CPU,
  What can be the reason?

  Thank you very much

  Hi mate,

  doesn´t sound very healthy. I guess your FAN has a serious problem and I think that before you start a long discussion about this would be the best that you contact a partner of service allowed in your country and send your machine for them because your problem is really related to the material.

• 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 L650: Where to find the Vista drivers? How to increase memory GPU?

  Hello

  I have owned just a satellite L650. I installed windows vista.
  Where can I find the drivers?
  I downloaded Toshiba, but some drivers are missing.

  Can someone tell how to increase the mobility radeon HD5470 512 MB Max 1300 MB video card?

  Thank you

  > Can someone tell how to increase the mobility radeon HD5470 512 MB Max 1300 MB video card?
  It is not possible. The graphics card driver it automatically controls and you cannot assign the memory manually.

  > I installed windows vista. Where can I find the drivers?
  Why are you using Vista?
  Windows 7 is pre-installed on this laptop and Win 7 is much better than Vista.

  However, if you use Vista (but I put t know why someone should prefer Vista Win7) and then drivers can be collected manually.
  Here's a nice HowTo that helps find all drivers:

• Can not find the second slot memory on my Satellite M40x-112

  Hi people,

  I want to improve my memory, preinstalled are 2 sticks of 512 MB. In the description it is said that the maximum is 2 GB so I bought 2 x 1 GB, unfortunately I can only find a housing... Is someone can you please tell me where is the other?
  Thank you

  Welcome,
  Sebastian

  Well, I found information that one slot is USER scalable. This means that the user can upgrade the memory only in a slot located at the bottom of the unit.

  I guess that the second location is hidden somewhere under the keyboard and the keyboard should be removed first to reach the second memory location.
  But this would nullify the warranty if you would remove the keyboard by yourself.

  In my opinion, you should contact technician tan allowed for this upgrade

• What Satellite Pro A120-I own? -You want to expand the memory

  Hi all!

  I want to upgrade the memory on my Pro A120.
  When you are looking for is the right kind, I wonder if I am owner of a
  A120-102
  A120-103
  A120-104
  etc.

  The list goes on and.

  I only know that he has a
  Satellite Pro A120 - 10 M
  PSAC1E-0QL054DU

  How do I know what AE figure should choose behind the A120 -?

  Someone?

  Thnx!

  And where you want to check the type of law?

  As you can see from the thumbnail you Satellite Pro A120 - 10 M. It's the answer to your question.
  Anyway, the memory modules compatible RAM for your laptop are:
  PA3499U - 1 M 25 (Kit of memory 256 Mo DDR2-667)
  PA3511U - 1 M 51 (Kit of memory 512 MB DDR2-667)
  PA3512U-1M1G (memory 1 GB DDR2-667 Kit)
  PA3513U-1M2G (memory 2 GB DDR2-667 Kit)
  DDR2-533 256 MB (PA3389U - 2M 25)
  512 MB DDR2-533 PA3412U - 2 M (51)
  1 GB OF DDR2-533 (PA3411U-2M1G)

  Your laptop can handle with 4 GB of RAM. So if you want to have the maximum amount of RAM, you must use 2 x PA3513U-1M2G.

  I have it? ;)

• Error and warning before and after the POST - Satellite M40X 129

  Hello

  I use a Satellite M40X-129, bought in 2005.
  After you have reinstalled Windows and all the necessary drivers (after more than 3 years, which was the longest time I used a windows ;-)) installation this afternoon, I meet the following situation when starting):

  (... check and all the stuff of ram...)
  Updated System Configuration data
  ERROR
  0271: check date and time
  WARNING
  0251: System CMOS checksum bad - default configuration used
  Press to resume, installation

  When I press F1 to resume, windows starts very well as I'm used to it.
  I can also access the configuration and need to update the time setting.

  Two scenarios:
  (a) the startup, shutdown, reboot: error message happen
  (b) setting the time, out of the bios with save the configuration, boot, very well until the stop/restart is required

  I tried to download the update of the bios to v1.60, but the configuration tool told me that this version is already in use and it will not progress.

  What I wondered: why is it happening? I don't think that the battery power is low, which was suggested to others in other threads, because it happened just after I installed the chipset/utils and other drivers from the toshiba download page.

  What can I do?

  -Bios update? -> Where can I find a new version? A tool (which I downloaded from a site linked to Phoenix Technologies) told me, there is an update for my Bios, but he wants me to join a subscription $29.99 / year

  -Swap CMOS battery? -> how remove m40x-129, tutorials? Don't want no f * ck it upwards...

  any other advice?

  Thanks for your help.
  Best regards

  Hello

  I think that the CMOS battery may be empty and therefore both a given in the BIOS is always changing the default value.

  Usually, you should be able to recharge this battery CMOS very easily.
  The user manual describes how to load this. Take a look at your manual

  As I m not wrong not the laptop must be ON and running and must be connected to the mains for more than 20hours.
  Then, the notebooks BIOS battery needs to be recharged again.

  Check it out!

  Good bye
