• Question about the files to be transferred on the Satellite Pro L40

  I have a portable Satellite Pro L40 and bought a upgrade disk to upgrade Vista Home Basic to Vista Home Premium.
  But I can not install the upgrade because drive C is showing that only have 8 GB of space.
  Drive E has 30G of space, but I can't transfer files from C to E to free up enough space.

  Please can someone tell me how to transfer files from C to E?

  I can ask the same thing as Akuma - why can you transfer files from C to E of t?

  Open two windows in the Windows Explorer. On the left side of the C drive on the right side of drive E.
  Mark all the files on the left side and move them to the right window. When you do with the key right mouse options will be displayed. Choose the MOVE option and I hope that the adaptation procedure will be launched.

  Have you ever tried to do this?
  An error message appears on the screen?

  Question sorry but described is completely illogical.

• Satellite Pro L40 - how to enable the WLan using ConfigFree

  Can you help me?

  My English is bad I do not end.

  The question is:
  My computer is a Toshiba Satellite Pro L40 and I use the ConfigFree for the wireless, but it seems that the WiFi network is disabled.

  Help please!
  I want to know what's wrong

  Thank you!!

  Hello!

  Your wireless network card is recognized correctly in the Device Manager, or you may notice a yellow exclamation?
  Her check first because otherwise, you can get the WLAN to work.

  In addition, you can activate WLAN with the material on the laptop switch which must be set on and the FN + F8 key combination.
  Check it!

  After this Free Config should find your WLAN router if you are in the range of that.

  Good bye

• Vista 64 bit on Satellite Pro L40

  I installed Vista Ultimate 64-bit on my Satellite pro L40 and I downloaded all the necessary drivers for this OS, but I can't use the FN keys and volume on my keyboard.
  Does anyone have any ideas as to why they won't work, I had Vista Home Basic on the machine before and they worked very well.

  The FN and the other keys work fine it's just the sound that does not work.

  Hello

  I checked the page European driver of Toshiba and there are not many Vista 64-bit drivers for this unit L40. Your FN buttons don t work because you didn t install the driver necessary or tool that controls this feature.

  I found a tool called Hotkey Utility, which was published in the Vista 32 bit driver section.
  You can try to install it on your Vista 64 bit version, but to be honest I m nit sure if it will work
  If she will not run, then you must use Vista 64-bit without the functionality of the FN button.

• Satellite Pro L40 - what is lasting average battery?

  Hello

  Recently, I received my Satellite Pro L40 and wonder what is the average battery? Once fully charged, it seems to be able to handle 1 hour max. Is this normal?

  The laptop I had before was the same, but my friends laptop, which is more than a year older than mine, runs for more than 3 hours on a fully charged battery.

  Is there a fault?

  Thank you

  Hello

  It is not easy to answer this question because the battery working time depends on the use of the laptop. You know that you will be able to run much longer Notepad on the battery power using only a few common applications like Word or Internet Explorer.
  Play games, watch DVDs or burn CD/DVD of waste more than energy because the performance of simple devices is much higher!

  Fact is that portable Pro L40 was equipped devices and high-tech parts. The laptop supports a nice GPU of fort Intel Pentium Dual - Core CPU, huge HARD drive, and and and

  In addition, you must know that the Vista operating system preinstalled eat a lot of resources and waste more energy than Win XP!
  All of this has an influence on the working time of battery.

  Last but not least, he should know that there are different batteries on the market.
  If you want to increase the performance of the battery, buy a stronger battery!

• Satellite Pro L40 is not start!

  Hello

  I just got a new Toshiba Satellite Pro L40 and I tried to install WinXP and WinVista on it, but after the 'realtek boot agent' screen, the screen remains black.

  Once I recognized that it is not working properly, I went into the BIOS to change the order of boot or something. But he wasn't listed CD/DVD player and there was no option to boot from USB.

  You have a solution for this problem?

  Thank you...

  This means that your CD/DVD drive does not appear in the BIOS and you can not boot from the CD recovery Toshiba or from the Microsoft windows CD?

  Everything you say seems strange to me

  In the worst case I would recommend contact the authorized service provider in your country for control of computer laptop because it s a new laptop computer and the guarantee must cover everything!

• Can I upgrade the CPU T2310 Satellite Pro L40 - 15A series laptop PC?

  Hi, (I apologize if this has been asked before, but when I search 'Satellite pro l40 series' I couldn't find any relevant response)

  I've been looking around the net & found contradictory answers to this question so far, so I hope that this forum may be able to help.

  I have a 15 D portable computer Satellite pro L40 and I want to upgrade the processor Intel Pentium Dual-Core 1.46 Ghz T2310 an Intel Pentium Dual-Core T4300 2.1 GHz 1 MB 800 CPU or something similar.

  I found the following issues http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Toshiba-Satellite-L40-14N-Notebook.7294.0.html

  "f consider you a CPU upgrade, there is not a lot of options." The Intel GL960 value express notebook chip supports only up to FSB 533 Mhz processors. So, does not allow most of the Core 2 Duo CPU update (with 667 MHz). "

  But then, I also read that the GL960 can run 800 MHz processors?

  I also asked the question on ebay to the seller of the CPU T2310 & received this response

  «SHOULD be OK, but your T2310 533 Mhz FSB and the T4300 has 800 Mhz.»

  Motherboards intel more modern should easily accept a 800 mhz cpu, but I cannot guarantee. May be an idea to see if you can find out if there are other models of Toshiba L40, also with 800 mhz chip, because it would be a good indicator.

  And if I can't pass a T2310 because of the 800 mhz too is their a 533 mhz cpu that will be compatible & more powerful for audio production that my current Ghz CPU T2310 1.46.

  I've only had this PC 4 years again, it seems not to be very mobile friendly if this resource could not be designed to handle upgrades.

  Thanks for the tips.

  Problem is that upgrading the CPU is not taken in charge and everything you do is at your own risk.

  just got a Satellite Pro L40-15 1 week ago and it's been downhill.

  The Wireless does not work (and yes the switch is activated and drivers installed). Sometimes windows recognizes no device when I boot.

  And when I stopped he said blocking down, but crashes just on this screen.

  Now, I'm an advanced user, so I've tried many things. Can anyone help?

  Thank you

  As a first step, I would recommend to use the Toshiba Recovery CD and renew the operating system.
  Then update the Vista of the State. I mean to install patches and fixes Vista all published.

  Check this thread:

• Cannot read and write CD/DVD on Satellite Pro L40 - 17F

  I have problems with my laptop (model: Satellite Pro L40 - 17F Cel - M 540 1.83/1GB/120GB 15.4).
  I have problems with the dvd player. When I got the laptop I managed to install a few things but now - on a two weeks later, I can't read or write CDs or DVDs.

  I checked many solutions to fix but does not work. I uninstalled the driver and restarted my computer and it reinstalled the same as that which does not once again.

  Please help me!

  Hi mate,

  may I ask what fire you´ve applications installed on your machine? I ask for the following reason:

  Several installed burning applications may interfere each other, so could not stop the drive works properly.
  Please, try the following:
  Find somewhere a linux cd or something that you can start from, and then try to start and when the disc turns and starts him CD then you know that your problem is not hardware partners, it s more a problem located somewhere in your Windows operating system.

  If the player wouldn even turn or start the inserted media then you know that the reader has some hardware malfunction and must be replaced.
  I guess you still have a warranty on your machine, if yes, then contact the nearest authorized service provider in your country and tell them your problem.
  They are able to help you and solve this problem.

  Welcome them

• Satellite Pro L40 - 14R and WiFi connection

  Hello!

  I have the model Satellite Pro L40 - 14R with Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2. I just installed a driver for the card wireless (Wireless Network Driver Realtek). After that, I can see device correctly installed:

  Realtek RTL8187B Wireless 802.11 g 54Mbps USB 2.0 Network adapt #2

  In the Device Manager under control panel configuration/system in my WinXP.

  I have also installed "Atheros Client Utility".

  But I don't see any net wireless in my range. No net can be detected! The old model of laptop - see multiple numbers of nets wireless in the healthy zone of mind. What is going on?

  [email protected]

  Hello

  First of all, you can use the Atheros Client Utility with the Atheros WLan card.
  You have a Realtek WLan card and this is why I recommend using WLan configuration option clean Windows to configure the WiFi network.

  But let's go to the essentials
  Have you checked if the WiFi network has been correctly activated? I mean you must activate the Wlan switch on the side of books and you must use the FN + F8 key combination!

  First, please check these two functions.

• Satellite Pro L40 - freezing recovery utility

  Hello

  I'm trying to restore my Satellite pro L40 via the recovery CD. The utility starts and then as soon as I select a language the recovery utility screen freezes with the list of countries endangered and section of flag having a small gray box that just overlap it.

  Does anyone have ideas, what is? I've never been able to get this new laptop to work, it is not the first time I turned it on and then I ordered a recovery CD and recovery utility is now a failure as well.

  This question is unclear to me. I got several notebooks A200 and P200, but I have never seen anything like it. If you aren't really able to use recovery DVD I recommend you contact the service provider authorized in your country. They can order for you the new copy.

  You may have some Microsoft CD/DVD installations to see if the installation of the OS can be finished without any problems. I really hope that this problem occurs due to recovery media.

  Hello

  I understand your problem in this way.

  You have connected the printer via Port Replicator ports for the A60 SatPro.

  Œuvres driver and so on correctly because the test page can be printed. But when you want to print from Word the printer isn't or what do you mean by "GOGGLEDYGOOK".

  Could you describe a little more detailly and give us some more information like Toshiba shipped OS or MS based installation, Service Pack installed, the name of the printer and so on...

  When you want to validate this information, it would be easier to help you!

• Satellite Pro 6000 and Windows Vista

  I bought a Satellite Pro 6000 and I want to put Windows Vista on it. I did an Upgrade Advisor and I was told that this graphics card will not work. Is this true?

  Thanks, Nick

  I'm afraid that's true. Satellite Pro 6000 is old enough for laptop and it will not supported in Vista. Install Windows XP Home edition and enjoy your life.

• The maximum size of HARD drive the BIOS sees in Satellite Pro 4200 and 4300 series systems

  I want to switch the HARD disk in my Satellite Pro 4340. I know the 4200 and 4300 SP series can take at least a 20 GB HARD drive that I've already updated a SP4270 and SP4280 drives from 20GB already.

  I did a search on assignments earlier re. Satellite Pro 4200 and computers portable 4300 series as various other contributors of this forum had already asked this question. A respondent suggested that they had installed a 60 GB HARD disk without problem.

  Someone at - it else mounted a big HARD drive (or more even) in these notebooks series 4200 and 4300 and managed to do work OK and had the BIOS to recognize the total size of the HARD drive?

  What is the largest swap HDD that someone did with success on these machines of 4200/4300?

  Unfortunately, you will not be able to find accurate information about it. All you can find are reports from other users. I am really interested about other views.

  By the way: 60 GB HARD drive is not sufficient for you?
