Satellite Pro 4260DVD does not detect WLAN CardBus

Hello

I had a problem with my Satellite Pro 4200 PCMCIA, which worked very well with 2 cards different Ethernet but when I tried to use the WLAN, it could recognize only a SMC EZ Connect 2.4 GHz 11 Mbps Wireless Cardbus Adapter (SMC2635W). I'm now running on XP Service Pack 2 and the big question mark is that XP didn't detect all other cards except the SMC a WLAN.

I tried the Linksys Wireless-B 2.4 GHz 802. 11B (WPC11 ver.4) and the generic IEEE802.11b WLAN CardBus card 2.4 GHz/11 Mbps but XP has not yet detected the card. The power of the map light was off and blinked only one time that when I plug. Both cards worked great on my old friend laptop IBM, which is finally older than my laptop. I bought this laptop 6 years ago and never had any problems with the front PCMCIA.

I have worked on this issue with my friend for about a week and we have no idea if this is a hardware or software problem. I first thought that it might be the PCMCIA 16 bits problem but I think that the SMC card is also not the 16 a bit. I did update the BIOS but I don't think it will make all the differences, if I did. Please help me solve this problem that I'm dying to know what really happened. Thank you!

See you soon,.

Hello

Well, the 4200 Pro Satellite does not for me but I found something on the Sat Pro 4220. This laptop supports PC - Card16 - bit PCMCIA and CardBus 32-bit (2 x PCMCIA type II) or 1 x PCMCIA type III
In this case I don't think that it? s a matter of 16 bits.

What you can do is to try to change the settings in the BIOS.
In the "configuration" box, you can set the configuration of the device to "devices".
In addition, in the "PC card" box, you can change the mode of the controller "CCIP compatible" or ' cardbus/16-bit' or 'automatic selection '.

Try all the settings. Maybe one of them will be working.

  • Cannot install Win 8 - Satellite Pro C660 does not detect HARD drive

    Hello

    My HARD drive died, so I decided to upgrade my Satellite Pro C660 - 1 9 to an SSD.
    I made a USB bootable with Win8 and starts very well.

    The problem is that it does not detect my SSD, so I can proceed with the installation.
    SSD appears in BIOS but not in Windows Installer.
    He said that there is a missing driver.

    I downloaded the AHCI drivers (XP, only ones available) and even in this case, after you have selected the only rider that appears, it says no new device found.

    I tried to change the SATA from AHCI mode to compatibility mode and it's the same thing...

    What can I do?

    Thanks for the help.
    Best regards
    Bruno Moreira

    More old Windows XP need a driver AHCI Intel's but I think this isn't a problem with SATA driver missing because as far as I know Windows 8 as well as Win 8.1 already contains the drivers to recognize the SSD or HARD disk drive.
    In addition, the installation of the OS should be possible even if the driver would be added for this procedure, you must use the "compatibility" mode
    As you say, the compatibility mode is not working too, so I think there is another problem.

    However, page driver Toshiba also provides a driver Intel RST (Intel Rapid Storage Technology) (Windows 8 - updated) you can try to add during the installation of the OS.

    But I m wondering if you would be able to install this Win 8 on common SATA HDD.
    Have you tried to format the SSD using a different computer, then install Win 8?
    Give it a try.

  • Why Satellite Pro A300 does not start when you press the power button?

    Suddenly my new Satellite Pro A300 does not start correctly when you press the power button. The situation is the following: when I press the power button is displayed the opening of Toshiba (Leading Innovation) and the disappers image quickly. Then there is a black screen for about 30 seconds. There is a rectangular frame with the text Microsoft Corporation under. And nothing happens however long wait.

    In order to get with the trial starting I then shut down the computer by pressing the power button until the computer turns off. ("The hard way to close")
    Now, I press the power button shortly to turn on the computer. Then, the computer starts normally with the photo to open Toshiba and after a few seconds, I wonder to open the computer in safe mode or in normal mode. I now choose to open in normal mode and the computer opens normally and is ready to work.

    What should I do to get a normal departure procedure?

    When the laptop starts normally (after choosing normal mode) stop your laptop properly using START > shut down option. Next launch should be normal.

    When the OS is moving towards the low irregularly will always ask you how to start this new (secure or normal mode).
    The same thing happen on my Satellite A300.

    HARD drive is visible in the BIOS?
    If this isn't the case, then this means that the HARD drive is faulty.

  • Satellite Pro 4230 - does not light

    Hello
    I have the following problem:

    A Satellite Pro 4320 will not feed, DC-in light is on (green), with inserted (quite old) battery, the quickly flashes orange, (charge of compensation, according to manual) battery. If I press the power button / stop, DC-In goes off for half a second and turns on, that of all, nothing else happens.
    The power supply is 15V 4Amps one correct, I load tested it works and provides all the power, according to the specifications. It does not matter if the battery is inserted or not.

    Now the question: is this a battery problem or there is a problem with the entrails of laptops (internal DC converter)? Normally, your laptop should work on the included power supply.

    Best regards
    Nohab.

    Hey,.

    > Normally a laptop should work on the included power supply.
    You're absolutely right, mate. All cell phones work with power supply only, theoretically, a battery is not necessary. That's only important if you want to work without power, otherwise laptop mobile working with power supply only. No battery is needed.

    So my personal opinion it of a card mother dysfunction :(

  • Satellite Pro C650 - does not start

    Hey all,.

    My Satellite Pro C650 boot not beyond a certain point. I tried to start in all modes different for example safe mode, mode of networking,

    However this proved unsuccessful, the laptop freezes and I meet a constant and regular beep at the same point every time that I try to start. I even tried to start Linux 12.04 USB to see if it's hardware or software, unfortunately is the same, which means hardware failure.

    The problem is that I don't know the bios beep codes and I can't understand what needs fixing.
    I was hoping you could help me!

    Thanks :)

    I think you need professional help with this problem. I don't know if your laptop is always guaranteed to be valid, but in my opinion, you should contact the nearest Toshiba authorized service provider and ask for help. They have special diagnostic tools and hardware malfunction can be detected and repaired.

  • Satellite A500-19W does not detect battery

    Hello

    I have a portable Satellite A500-19W which is 6 months old.

    I bought this laptop while I was in Egypt and now I've moved (Dubai) UNITED Arab Emirates.

    Lately my laptop started suddenly does not detect battery.

    To remedy this that I have to remove the battery and clean the terminals then re - put the battery and turn it on and it's OK.

    This happened twice this week and caused my data loss because the charger is disconnected (if the charger is connected, the laptop computer continue to work, but the battery indicator does not light up)

    Now, my questions are the following
    1 - is this problem under warranty?
    2 - should I pay for anything when getting this laptop in service in Dubai noting that I bought in Egypt?
    3. is there a cure for this problem without going through the service center?

    Thank you

    1 / Yes. These questions should be covered by the warranty. Material is junk.

    2 / the nearest service contact and ask, but I'm sure you don't have to pay for the repair. The two countries are countries in EMEA, and avoid any kind of problems.

    3 / it is not much, you can do about it so please contact and explain the situation. They should check your laptop and find a reason why this happens.

    Don t waste your time and contact the closest service. If you have need for addresses and phone numbers you can find on http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads > find an ASP.

  • Satellite Pro A200 does not load if current enforcement

    Hello

    I have a new Toshiba Satellite Pro A200 on Vista. I have a problem with the power adapter and charge socket.
    It will start and run very well and when turned off will charge the battery of fine food. But when running, the machine automatically runs battery, no network and does not load.

    This means that the battery is sinking and ended up to be recharged so just off the coast.
    When the power supply is removed and then reinserted, it will load for maybe 30 seconds, then stops to load again initially and continues to run on battery.
    At the same time, the blue light of indication on the front of the machine lights up to indicate that the ESA is connected and detected, and on battery defiler on windows in States ' ac connected, not charging battery "-in other words it works of ac and is detected but the machine isn't use to run power supply or load unless it is turned off...

    Can anyone offer a solution?

    Thank you

    That s very strange and I guess that this problem could be linked to the hardware problem.
    Either it's a defective battery or there is something wrong with the electronic power supply on the motherboard.
    In my opinion, there is only one way to know what's wrong some diagnostic tests are needed.
    This test can be performed by a technician of the ASP.
    That is why it s advisable to contact an ASP in your country for audits.

    This is a new laptop and warranty should cover everything!

  • Satellite Pro M40X does not ILLUMINATE

    Hi. -.

    I have a M40X Pro Satellite that I bought 4 years ago. It works well until a few weeks ago.

    I tried to turn it on but nothing happen, nothing, no lights, no sound at all, completely dead.

    It is connected to the power supply and the power light is on, (the battery light does not work since there is a lot of time). I tried to remove the battery, unplug the power cable and after several hours or even days, try to turn it on and I got the same behavior.

    Only power if it is (the power light when you connect the AC power) but when I press the button "turn on" the laptop, nothing happens.

    My laptop isn't under warranty, so if someone could help find a solution that would be great!

    Thank you

    Hello

    I have read your problem related to the failure of hardware. It seems that the motherboard is dead, no doubt, the southbridge. In any case, you should contact the service center:

    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/generic/ASP_SUPPORT/

    Note that the motherboard is one of the most expensive parts of the tower and don't know if it's worthy to replace, it is better to buy a used or a new laptop.

  • FN + F10/F11/F12 in Satellite Pro U300 does not work

    Guys,

    need your help...
    I have the Satellite Pro U300 series and most recently the numbers four and six obtained busted... its does not work so I try to use the superposition of numeric keypad but I have observed that after pressing FN + F11 nothing happens...

    Please help me...

    Thank you
    <>

    Hello

    When you use FN + F11 small control LED must be lit and the keypad must be enabled.
    If your laptop is preinstalled with Toshiba recovery image this option SHOULD work correctly.

    So nobody here knows what you did with your laptop and why these options are not available more.
    Before you start with advice how to get this working again once please let us know what operating system is preinstalled on your Satellite Pro U400.
