• Satellite Pro A40 psa45e - error code: what is the problem of flashing

  I just bought the laptop above Satellite Pro A40 (psa45e - 0184 h - en), which came with a generic power.
  The great laptop worked until the other night.

  The light on the power supply is on, output is 15 Volt, turns on the laptop at the front, an orange light comes on and blinks 5 then 2 then 1, I guess the 521 error code.

  Unplug everything and the light goes out then two green lights turns on, then laptop has started twice and started upward (running xp) but then freezes.

  I guess the power supply stopped working and the chip has noticed the problem.

  Can anyone confirm the fault error is feeding or is there something else wrong.

  Need to know before you buy the Toshiba power, I don't want to lose more money.

  Help, please...

  How much is your generic AC adapter?

  The amps must be the same or greater than what your laptop needs. You can view the Volts + Amp requirements based on the laptop (serial sticker).

  So if the laptop needs 15v 8A... you need a 15v 8A or 9A 15v or AC adapter / higher CC.

  If the amps are too weak, in the custom of mobile devices get enough power and could cause damage.

  You should get yourself a good Toshiba adapter for peace of mind. Cheap generics can be more trouble than they are worth.

• Satellite Pro A40 PSA45E - can be upgraded with BT module?

  I have the PSA45E-001YM-OF and write about if there is an internal space for a bluetooth device.

  The support site says that there is an updated driver for this machine which suggests there is a bluetooth device existing or that one can be authorized only by this machine.

  Requested orientation.

  Hello

  I found an info that the Satellite Pro A40 doesn t support the BT module and is therefore cannot be upgraded also with the internal module.

  What you can do is to use an external USB BT stick

• Satellite Pro A40 (PSA45E) - How to Exchange old HDD?

  The HARD drive in five years by Satellite Pro A40 daughter old died recently. What type of HARD drive replacement is supported by the BIOS or am I limited to the Toshiba MK4025 only?

  Also, does anyone have an idea how to open the case without causing too much damage to the tabs in plastic molded?

  Thank you
  Trondheim

  Hello

  Theoretically, you can buy each HARD disk and it makes no difference which manufacturing you buy the HARD drive. But the uses of Satellite Pro A40 older hard drives with IDE interface as far as I know, and this means that you can not use hard s 128 GB drives or let due 120 GB limitation LBA 28 bits.
  120 GB would be the biggest HARD drive you can use.

  Normally, the HARD drive cover is only attached by two screws. Remove it, the cover and then to exchange the HARD drive.

  Hello

  Excuse my bad English,

  I recently formatted my laptop and impossible to find some drivers for Satellite Pro A100 PSAAAE. I'm looking particularly Power Saver, common modules, Tablet...

  I have a recoverring dvd, but it does not (CRC error during extraction). The drivers on the Toshiba site for other versions of A100 do not seem to work. Find sound elsewhere or contact Support to post me a new recover dvd?

  THX.

  Hello

  I guess you're looking for XP drivers? Is this good?

  Unfortunately, it XP drivers as Power Saver, common modules, paved tactile are not out on the Satellite Pro A100 PSAAAE series.

  Maybe some drivers only for other portable devices such as Satellite Pro A100, Equium A100, Satellite A100 would be compatible test simply... Maybe you're a lucky guy and some drivers would go!

  Good luck

• Need drivers XP for Satellite Pro A40

  Just do a fresh install of XP on a Satellite Pro A40 of second hand. Various onboard devices are not known (of in XP Device Manager) and I can't go through the process of "Install new hardware" that I don't have the drivers. The devices are mainly the Multimedia Sound Audio Card and the PCI Modem. I don't know what manufacturer made these, as XP ID device as unknown Manager.

  Anyone have any ideas or tips on how I can get the sound and PCI modem to work?

  (I'm not using the laptop for this message, even if it has access to the Internet).

  Thank you

  Looking for XP drivers?

  You can find all the XP drivers on the European driver Toshiba page!

  For the multimedia and Audio sound card, you need to install the audio driver and Modem PCI-> modem driver.

  You will find everything on the page of the driver.

  But note that buddy, there are also a few QFE Ms. This is usual Microsoft patches and fixes that are necessary and essential for the installation of the driver.

  Also check the Microsoft Windows XP SP2 update information. Sometimes the only drivers or utilities must be updated after the installation of service packs for MS!

• Cannot find drivers for Vista for Satellite Pro A40

  I have the Toshiba Satellite Pro A40.
  I find no drivers for the Vista operating system installed recently, or find a way to report directly to Toshiba.
  Seeking advice.

  Hello

  You can find some Windows 2 k and drivers for the Satellite Pro A40 XP in Toshiba Archive area.

  As you can see this series of mobile could be found in the area of the Archive because it s an old model of laptop. Because this series is a little older Vista drivers are not available and if you want to use the Vista on satellite Pro A40 then you have to collect the Vista drivers at your own hand.

• Satellite Pro A40-111 - Windows XP Pro Russia - how to change to Windows XP en

  Hi all

  I just bought the Satellite Pro A40-111, 2 days ago in Ukraine. Everything is OK except the OS, it is the version of WinXP Russia. I'm not one Russian or Ukrainian.

  Could Toshiba or someone could help me to config this OS to have the Interface in English WinXP?
  Please help me!
  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  for your Windows to speak another language, you need to go to stores and buy a Windows with this language. In your case, there is (at least not known to me) no way to change Windows English Russian Windows without having to reinstall the system from scratch - and not with an English Windows.

  When you do so, remember to add the drivers CD Utilties - and tools and in the exact order as described in the help on the CD HTML files.
  It is imperative to install drivers in the correct order to have the machine works correctly.

  Good luck

• Replace the drive DVD/CD-RW on my Satellite Pro A40

  Hello

  Does anyone know if a Toshiba DVD/CD-RW drive with model number SD-R2412 will be compatible with my Satellite Pro A40? If not, anyone know where I could find? Some muggins broke the CD drive on my laptop by bumping the case off a cargo cover. As a result, I can't claim on the warranty... statement of accidental damage... bah. :-(

  A friend of mine, think the new drive can need CSEL or M/S setting... What is it exactly and I need for an A40 Pro Sat? The laptop model number is PSA45E - 0184H - EN

  Thank you!!

  Hello

  Sorry, but I can't tell you which model will fit your laptop because there is not a public document on this subject. I know that your drive is set up and if the warranty is still valid you should not o alone because you can lose your warranty. I also found information that your device may also use a DVD-R, - RW drive. These types of information have all authorized partners. Try to contact them. I'm sure they can give you correct information on this subject.

• What is HD-maximum capacity for Satellite Pro A40?

  Hello together,

  I got a (PSA45E) Satellite Pro A40 and now I need a new hard drive.
  My question is now, what is the maximum capacity for a hd you can plug in and are very by the BIOS?

  Thanks in advance.

  Doc

  Hello

  I think this old laptop HARD drive with IDE interface, so I think the upgrade up to 120 GB should be possible. I think that 80 or 100 GB should be enough for this good old classic.

  I hope you aren't the guy who wants to have 500 GB. :)

• Satellite Pro A40 - how to turn on wireless?

  Hello

  I recently formatted and installed Windows XP Professional on a Toshiba Satellite Pro A40.
  But I can't understand how to activate Wifi on the computer.

  When I press FN + F8, nothing happens. All the drivers are installed properly, no errors appear in the Device Manager in Windows. Do I have to install specific drivers, like I used to use the other FN keys (I needed to install common Modules)?

  I also have a (Linksys Wireless - G WPC54G) PCMCIA card. When I put the card in the laptop, the power led flashes once, but also nothing happens. This card is not compatible with this laptop?

  Please can you give me some advice?

  Thanks in advance.

  Kind regards

  Nothing

  Hey,.

  What is the card listed WLAN correctly in Device Manager? Or you see yellow exclamation points or unknown devices?

  Maybe you should try to update the WLAN driver. On the Toshiba site, you can find the most recent version.

  You should also tell us what happens if you search for your WLAN router. The WIFI connection is displayed in network connections?

• Satellite Pro A40 - driver Windows 7 sound.

  Hi, IM running Win 7 beta on one of my laptops, which is be a satellite pro a40.

  Ive got everything right except the "multimedia Audio Controller" aka the soundchip and the display adapter, which doesn't really count that I can see the screen etc anyway.

  Now all I really need are vista 32 drivers where they are compatible with windows 7 32 OS.

  But I can't find anywhere and archive here only has win2000 and xp more, I tried both and no work.

  Help!

  Thank you

  I think you should search for drivers if external websites on the Toshiba site are not drivers for Vista available.

  As far as I know that the Satellite Pro A40 is equipped with an Intel graphics card and so you should find the driver on the Intel page
  [www.intel.com]

  In addition, the laptop has a card his Analog Devices. I checked the manufactures Web site and in the [FAQ-area | http://forms.analog.com/Form_Pages/soundMax/soundMaxSupportFAQ.html#question1] I founded the following information:
  > SoundMAX provides no drivers or software directly to computer users. To download drivers, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer
  You will not find a driver for the sound card, but maybe an another Toshiba notebook is equipped with the same sound card so that's why you can find a driver for Vista.
  Check it!
