  • 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 L300: How to change the display settings

    Hi I have a toshiba satellite pro l300 run a pentium dual core and intel 965 display chip any games I play on my laptop, they open in a small box and not full screen I've had a quick glance at the settings to try to resolve this with no luck.

    Can someone tell me if there is a way to change the settings to get the games to play in full screen, my current display settings are 1280 x 800 pixels and running at 32-bit color.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    You should set this option to full screen in the games you play. Checked for these options, because you are given something like graphics, solution details and in most cases should be windowed.

    One thing you might try is to uninstall your current display drivers, and then reinstall new ones. Make sure that you use tools like ccleaner cleaning record or similar.
    Check if you have installed all the latest updates of windows and directx version, if you are using Windows XP.

    Hello

    I put t know what software you use but generally you can always choose the favorite webcam or microphone in the settings of the software.

    For example, I use Skype and Skype settings, I can choose between the internal webcam and my external webcam.

    In addition, you can disable each device in the Device Manager I that you would disable a Red Cross, then it should appear to the disabled device (webcam)

  • Satellite Pro L300 how to prevent DVDs skipping due to vibrations?

    I'm reading from the DVD in a class of education of adults, but every time the tutor walks past the laptop DVD jumps. This does not happen with other laptops (many are also SP L300s) is it possible to desensitize the machine against external vibration?

    Hello

    To be honest I don't have problems with playing DVDs on my Satellite L300. Maybe you should try to clean the lens using a microfibre cloth than zero of the lens doesn t. This should be done from time to time if you can see several problems with the STRANGE.
    Check this box!

    Otherwise I think it sounds like a hardware problem. You must contact an authorized assistance service provider. Maybe the drive needs to be replaced

  • Satellite L40 - 18Z - how to turn on wireless?

    I have Satellite L40 - 18Z running Windows Vista Service Pack 2.

    I've had a few cases where the wireless seems to have failed. On this instance, the LED at the front does not shine despite the switch is either off or on position. I checked the network card settings and it is activated. I have disabled/enabled the adapter, but without success. I uninstalled and reinstalled the driver - with no success. I checked for the latest drivers, but they are already installed.

    I also deleted and reinstalled the adjacent wireless card to memory, there still without success. The network and sharing Center diagnosis indicates only that the without wire must pass away - but I am unable to do so.

    Any advice would be welcome. Thank you.

    Hello

    The WIFI connection can be activated in different ways: with the hardware switch you have ever tried and key combination FN + F8.
    So have you activated the wireless network card by pressing FN + F8?

    From my own experience, I can say that the WLAN led is only if you use this key combination too.
    Check this box!

    In addition, you wrote on reinstall drivers WLAN you have installed you exactly? The most recent and pre-tested WLAN drivers, you can find the Toshiba site.

    Last but not least, I also updated the BIOS, if nothing else works.

  • Satellite Pro L300 - PSLB9E - cannot turn off wifi except for by Win 7

    I installed Win7 64 bit with a custom installation (replacing 32-bit Vista). I have updated all drivers (to my knowledge) and BIOS to 2.1. The wifi is always enabled, any position of the switch on the front or the combination Fn + F8. I can unplug a wifi service in the network Panel Win 7. This may seem like a good problem to have, but the power gets used when on battery. Obvious pointers? I can't follow up? Thank you very much.

    You can likely install toshiba value added package for win 7 if it is available.
    I also have the same problem with mij L40 pro and value pack for Windows 7 will not install on my laptop.
    Maybe it wil last updated in the future.

  • Satellite Pro L300 - how Windows easy transfer on the new HARD drive?

    Hello

    I recently got a broken hard drive of a laptop larger than mine.

    I would like to put in my computer, but I don't know what would be the way to transfer the partition of installation (or better yet also already installed windows partition).

    Will I be able to reinstall linux in a few minutes, but for windows it's something else.
    Do you have an idea of the procedure?

    The best would be to make a mirror copy, or something like that for me, to have just to extend the size of some partitions.

    Thank you.
    Stone

    Hello

    I recommend the creation of an image.
    You can create either an image that contains only the content of a partition or the whole HARD disk content.

    There are different image on the market tools. For the most part, you will pay for this software.
    But you can also use an internal utility for Microsoft Windows 7. Its share of the Win 7 system.

    If you are using Windows 7, I recommend this solution.

    Here's a nice page of Microsoft on this tool and how to do it:
