  Switch on the device and press F8, and then choose fix my computer.
  Then you can follow the installation by choosing Toshiba HDD recovery.

• Satellite Pro L40 freezing, BSOD appears

  Hello

  My laptop has been freezing, screen dump of the fault (blue) lights up regularly, as well the touchpad doesn't work does not correctly...

  I was advised to use the product recovery disc, what I did, but I don't know if it worked, the computer laptop stil has the same problems except the touchpad works a little better, and I can't use it in normal mode, in the security mode.

  I was told the memory would be clear too, but everything is still there.

  The laptop stays on for a few minutes at best before freezing or returns to the screen crash dump...

  Can someone tell what I can do?

  Thank you

  Hello

  The BSOD (blue screen of death) can be everything and can be caused by everything. I mean it could be related to hardware or software issue.

  But especially the freezing of the BONES and the BSOD appear due to the dysfunction of the RAM.
  Failure of the RAM may be caused by a high internal temperature.
  This may affect the functionality of the laptop and the BSOD.

  I think you should clean the OS using a jet of compressed air.
  This spray can be purchased from the other computer dealers.

  If this will not help your RAM should be checked also.

  Good luck

• Satellite Pro L40 - where to get the Vista recovery disc?

• Satellite Pro L40 and it crashes and freezes

  Hi guys

  I have a Satellite Pro L40 and it crashed on me a few weeks ago.
  It will turn upward, but everything freezes.

  They gave me a copy of Vista to friend, but this only loads until it said 74.5 MB necessary and only 74.4 on the partition so I guess it does not load the full program of vista.

  I don't have the original backup drive so cannot use it.
  Is my only need to get a new hard drive and if what kind do you recommend.

  Sorry if I have'nt it explains very well

  Derek

  In my opinion, it is always good to have original Toshiba DVD facilities. If you want to order a visit https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx, and how much you should pay for it.

  As Akuma wrote before starting installation Vista delete existing partitions, create new and install Vista on it. I don't think that you need a new HARD drive.

• Satellite Pro L40 - how to make a dual boot with two recovery disks

  discs 3 & 4 are windows xp profesional
  Disc 5 is updated the bios

  The guy where I bougt garage computer (a metal regular store named expert) says that it is posible with discs tose.
  I have
  I already have a partition, but when I boot from disks, is not has the option to select a partition

  Thanks already

  > Satellite Pro L40 - how to make a dual boot with two recovery disks?
  Short answer: you can't do that. Maybe if you have two hard disks (I tried didn't) but as much as I know your SP L40 has only one.
  Ask this smart guy, how to do this. Maybe it's a useful tip.

• 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 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!

• Satellite Pro L40 wireless channel selection

  I have a Realtek 8187 b WLAN in my Satellite Pro L40.

  I have the latest drivers installed with xp pro, but can't set the channel everything but 10. How can I change the channel when I get the message that the channel range must be 10-10. This just doesn't seem right.
  Channel top 10 isn't a problem, but when I'm somewhere else, it is impossible to establish a connection, at least that channel 10 is used.

  Hello

  Have you checked the settings in the WLan card properties?
  Go to the devices-> ECS-> Wlan card Properties Manager.
  The Advanced tab should contains different settings.

  Wlan channel can also be changed using the Wlan configuration utility Intel ProSet or Atheros Client utility such as tools.

• Satellite Pro L40-15 a (PSL4BE) BIOS update procedure

  Hi, since trying to update the BIOS from Windows using the package provided on the official page to download always translated by the + black screen problem + described [here | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=47887&tstart=0], which is the * correct * on how to update the BIOS on this laptop?

  I am no newbie: with these laptops, this is the first and only 2 has no BIOS updates, more than 100 + modernization successful in my career!

  Here, I sketch the history with the my two Satellite Pro L40 - 15A (PSL4BE).

  Cell phone 1:
  a. BIOS 1.60
  b. upgrading to Windows * XP * to 5.50 _For Windows XP_
  c. programme stop the PC from the start, with a progress remains empty bar!
  d. first boot in the BIOS showing version 5.50 (!), but then: dead (black screen)
  e. taken for an ASP.
  f. after 15 minutes and for as little as 35 it has been resolved, and BIOS updated to 2.00
  g. explanation of the ASP guy was it was my fault, because since the laptop is with Vista installed, I couldn't do a upgrade the BIOS of XP!
  h. sold the laptop with BIOS 2.00

  Laptop 2:
  a. BIOS 1.60
  b. upgrade of Windows * Vista * to 2,00 _For Windows Vista_
  c. programme stop the PC from the start, with a progress remains empty bar!
  d. but the laptop still and always boots with BIOS 1.60.
  e. upgrade to Windows * XP * at 5.50 _For Windows XP_ (I know, I was really looking for troubles, uh?)
  f. first boot in the BIOS showing version 5.50 (!), but then: dead (black screen) (as 1 laptop)
  g. tried every combination of secret keys, CD, USB, floppy drive, but nothing could do the trick to force a BIOS loading, as the ASP was indeed able to do with my laptop 1!
  h. read 'notuagain' contribution to the forum thread [here | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=47887&tstart=0], and it worked.
  i. but now, the laptop still has BIOS 1.60

  Any ideas out there?
  Thank you

  Hello

  Here you can find the traditional versions of updated BIOS for this laptop model:
  http://rapidshare.com/files/415039398/BIOS-2.0-psl4be-Vista.zip.html
  http://rapidshare.com/files/415039409/BIOS-5.5-psl4be-XP.zip.html

  So you can update the BIOS using a USB bootable or external USB FDD drive.

• Satellite Pro L40: Bios update not necessary - no settings for RAM in Bios 1.90

  Hi, I just bought a Satellite Pro L40 laptop and im trying to figure out why the bios has no parameter memory.
  If I look at the ram using a tool of information system (cpuz or aida320), it shows she doesn't move at the speed of 667 mhz but at 533 mhz.

  As you can see from this screenshot the memory runs at the real speed is less than the maximum that the sticks have a rated power.

  http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/4580/cpuz1pj5.jpg

  Its running at 266 mhz (533 mhz ddr) where it should be run at 333 mhz (667 mhz ddr).

  I also noticed that with this laptop fan never seems to come, is it possible to mount the fan?
  Whenever I have the laptop for more than 30 minutes, it becomes very hot.

  Hello

  > if I look at the ram using a tool of information system (cpuz or aida320) it shows that it does not run at the speed of 667 mhz but at 533 mhz.

  What is your FSB?
  If the laptop was equipped with memory PC2-5300 modules then they could run at 667 MHz, but only if the FSB would supports 667 MHz! I think is supported by the FSB of 533 Mhz.
  So I can't say it s nothing wrong!

  > I just bought a Satellite Pro L40 laptop and im trying to figure out why the bios has no parameter memory.
  Why do you think a BIOS update would turn the memory settings in the BIOS?
  Please don t mix of desktop computers laptops! Laptops cannot be overclocked.
  BIOS of laptop computers is not the same thing as a desktop PC BIOS!

  > I also noticed that with this computer laptop fan never seems to come, is there a way to turn the fan to the top? Whenever I have the laptop for more than 30 minutes, it becomes very hot.
  Have you noticed all automatically turn off downs or any other strange behaviors laptop as freezing OS for example?
  If it is then that the laptop runs correctly and doesn't overheat.
  Books to support thermal protection which would be closed the laptop automatically to avoid equipment damage

  Then lean back man and enjoy your nice toy ;)

• 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 Wireless does not and wont stop correctly

  Hello
  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:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums//thread.jspa?MessageID=107665

  Here you can see that a missing patches can have a bad influence on the wireless network card and the entire operating system!

  Good luck
