  I bought a toshiba laptop (satellite pro u400), but I think he has a very short range, about 1 h.
  Someone like that have a computer toshiba laptop?

  How long your battery last time?

  Thank you!!!

  GLO :-)

  Hello

  I have a U400 and I also use it with the battery.

  I use it for surfing the internet and writing
  Execution of the laptop with battery I always set the brightness to the minimum, and in this case I can use it for about two hours.

  If the screen light is set to max and the HARD drive and the CD/DVD drive works then your battery time will likely decline at a time.

  So, as you can see the battery time work depands defintialy on the use of the laptop...

• Satellite Pro L40 - what video card

  The boss plays the Knights of Baphomet iii and he crashes an hour and 40 minutes. The game recommends a GeForce 4 Ti 4200 or equivalent - I think that the lack of any video card is causing the problem.

  Is the recommended card good or is there one more suited to laptops and this one in particular.

  See you soon

  Graphics card can not be upgraded.
  What is overheating?
  If you can play nearly two hours, I assume that graphics card can handle with this game.

  To be honest, L40 is not portable game and you can't wait for the performance fabulous graphics card.

• Replacing the battery on Satellite Pro L40-17 b

  Satellite Pro L40-17 b
  Information: PSL4BE-00P00UDU

  Looking for the best way to replace the battery of my laptop. Buy a new for about 50 euros, but unfortunately no possibility for me at the moment: (.)

  Any tips?

  Sonaya

  Hi Sonaya

  I can understand you but cheaper battery unfortunately isn't the best solution. What you need is compatible and original battery for your laptop.

  If possible, wait a bit, save the money and buy the right one.
  When you remove the original battery, you will find the exact reference. To order a new one.

  Anyway, I think battery cheaper than you can find on ebay. Check it out and compare prices.

• Satellite Pro L40 PSL4BE starts no - HDD + CPU fan is not

  Hello

  I own a Satellite Pro L40 - 17F (PSL4BE-00R005EN).
  I've been running the system on the current for a while now.
  I decided to remove the battery to avoid damage.
  Last night, I accidentally pulled the addapter at the back of the laptop. Since then; the machine won't start.

  I noticed that the HARD drive was not making the usual noises. Then I realized was not the CPU fan is spinning.
  Nothing appears on the screen, not even the start menu.

  The only things that do not seem to work are the DVD player & power light!
  I had the back of the machine off; I didn't see any obvious reason for the problem.

  I'm looking for a second opinion on what is happening with it, and if it can be fixed without having to buy a new motherboard.

  Thank you. Dan.

  Hmm. possibly, there is nothing wrong with your motherboard.
  Try this common workaround that has helped me in such cases.

  Remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter. Leave the laptop for about 30 min and after this short break, put the battery in the laptop and connects to the AC adapter.

  This short procedure helped me to sort a similar g and strange question.

  I hope that you will succeed if you please post some results.

• Satellite Pro L40-15 has: motherboard problem

  Hi all

  I have a satellite pro L40-15 and it was running vista basic but very slowly.

  A friend advised me that I needed to renew the bios for xp install xp. I did, and now he's dead. The fan is not still running, even if the wireless lights and 3 lights above the power switch will Flash once.

  I took the motherboard out (part number 08g2002ta22jtb). During the inspection, there seems to be a reset button on the plateau (near the battery terminals). It is only accessible with the removed card. Does anyone know haw to restore bios factory settings please?

  Thanks in advance.

  John.

  Hi mate,

  It's cool to you finally disassemble your machine. But you won´t get no benefit from this action given that the bios needs to be reflashed by a technician of toshiba, BECAUSE they have the right tools to do this.

  I don't know how or what tools they use, but I had a similar problem on my Satellite A100 and they fixed without the motherboard. (So it was told to me).

  If I were you, I would send the machine to another and the closest to the ASP (certified partner) in your country. They should bring back your machine to life.

• Update of the question on Satellite Pro L40 - 15A - old BIOS BIOS cannot recognize the EEPROM

  Hello

  I can't Flash my bios.
  I have a Satellite Pro L40 - 15A.

  The Toshiba winflash tool provided with the bios file tells me as the "old BIOS cannot recognize EEPROM.

  I was recommended to use AFUDOS on another forum, but telling me that the bios has a boot not block valid.

  Flas for back FRIEND tells me that the flash rom is write-protected? There is no option in the bios to disable and I don't think that anyone would be stupid enough to put a hardware Bios protect jumper on a laptop.

  Help, please

  THX

  Dear Bruce

  Can you please tell me what you want to do and explain us it please your steps to update the BIOS of your laptop Satellite Pro?

  I did the update of BIOS more than 20 times in the last month and I really wonder what you mean with terms such as EEPROM or AFUDOS. What BIOS update version that you want to use? I assume as 5.10. Am I wrong?

• Satellite Pro L40 - 15A - Windows XP screen white when the cover is open

  Hey,.

  So when I closed the lid on my laptop for a while and then reopen the lid, the screen remains white (black). The only way I found to get back on the screen is to re-boot.
  In power management, I put 'Status quo' for when I close the lid on my computer and power management is ' Always on '.

  I have the latest Bios and updates to the system.

  Any help appreciated.

  Hi ib1.

  You use the version preinstalled Windows from Toshiba or is it your own installation?

  What to update the display driver? Take a look at the Toshiba page for the new display driver:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

  Don t forget to look in the * archives * on Toshiba page because this model is a little older, so all of the downloads are moved in archive.

• Problem with the software Modem on Satellite Pro L40

  I tried to set up a connection Dial-Up Networking on a Satellite Pro L40 running Vista and can't get the modem to talk to the modem from the ISP. The connection appears OK and then you can hear the modem dial, but when the ISP picks up there is a bit of yelling and then my modem abandons the connection and I get the standard vista connection failed box.

  Things I've tried:
  -latest drivers for the 2.1.77.0 modem (and the rest of the system) downloaded from Toshiba and installed OK
  -all the updates of windows installed
  -removal of the modem in the Manager of peripherals and re - install
  -suppression of the agrsmdel.exe and then re-install
  -try different cables to plug into the phone jack
  -several different ISPS and phone numbers
  -reduce the maximum speed of the connection
  -connection to the same ISP with my Satellite L10; works very well never have time!
  -using the windows to diagnose and repair the tool (set last resort!); says that the modem works fine and can not find a problem with the connection

  Is it possible that the update of the BIOS on the laptop would make a difference (currently v 1.60)? I did some research on Google and found messages on various forums, which suggests that the connection between the motherboard and the modem chip is a little doubtful for all the Agere Soft Modem; If the case is it something I can fix myself or I should go for warranty repair?

  Hello

  I'm sure that there is no problem with your modem, but with the configuration or even s ISP modem. I recommend you to speak with the support of the ISP.

• Satellite Pro L40 - football manager runs slowly

  Hi guys,.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro L40
  I ve bought a football game coach (lma manager 2007) for it and its really slow. What are my options to play better?

  Help, please!

  Hello

  To be honest there are not many options to make the computer faster
  But I see that your laptop uses ONLY 512 MB of RAM.
  In my opinion it is certainly not enough and certainly desirable upgrade to 1 GB or 2 GB.

  Therefore, I recommend upgrading the RAM.

• Re: Satellite Pro L40 - killed the laptop BIOS update

  Recently I thought it would be better to download the latest drivers and upgrades for my Satellite pro L40 to keep up-to-date and partners the laptop that works smoothly. I couldn't have worse summer. Before I updated the new driver updates I thought it would be a good idea first update the Bios. So I downloaded the update of the Bios on the Toshiba site, unzipped the files and followed the online instructions for updating the BIOS. I double clicked on the BIOS file to run the update, the laptop says it was end the session, I waited and the Toshiba logo screen came. In the instructions, it says that I have to press F2 now and confirm that the date and time are correct. I should then press F9 to load all the default values and then press F10 to save and exit. At this point, the laptop must away to the loading screen, but... I got a black screen. IV turned off the computer and turn it back on, but still, I get a blank screen. The lights are on but know one's home.

  Could a mod/staff/Board Toshiba administrator please explain to me why I'm going to draw the consequences of my lack full on my face because I followed a form of direct teaching of personnel of Toshiba or... Please run me through the process of bring back my cell partners in life, before that I get my Crown snatched jewels. This isn't a laugh. An upgrade directly from the manufacturer is not intended to cause you problems!

  Please get back to me as soon as POSSIBLE. My first son moments of life (videos, photos) are on this laptop. That cannot be replaced. Please tell me that the laptop can be fixed...

  Hello Durks

  I'm really sorry to hear you I have this problem.
  To be honest, it is not easy to discuss about this because a lot of people on this forum with a similar or same problem reacts quite aggressive if they don t hear exactly the thing they want to hear.

  In any case, I just want to write my comment. Don t be worried about photos and other important data. You can remove the laptop HARD drive, put it in a small box of HDD SATA 2.5 and connect the HARD drive to the other PC / laptop as external device. You will have full access to all stored data. So you can do the backup.

  Update the BIOS.
  What to say at this point?
  I have checked the Toshiba download page and saw that the BIOS update is available for Windows XP Home edition and Vista pre-installed notebooks so I hope you ve chosen the right one. Anyway, it is not easy to fix screwed up in the BIOS. You hate me now, but I think you should contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help. Call them, explain the situation and ask what you can do about it.

  I hope you will fix this laptop soon.

  Good luck.

• Satellite Pro L40 / L45 - closed/open/sensor cover

  Original title was:
  Pro L40 - location of the sensor/switch cover closed/open

  The moderator (?) changed to:
  Satellite Pro L40: black screen but faint image in background

  This is the reason why I write again; What I'm looking for - at this point, at least - is NOT _specifically_ the LOCATION OF the SWITCH of LID on the L40, how to recover my screen in general.

  Note: My laptop is a Pro L40 but I understand that his in many ways identical to the L45 (UK and USA models) model?

  QUESTION: Did anyone know exactly where the LID OPEN/CLOSED/SENSOR?
  I couldn't find, although I completely disassembled the unit.

  I would appreciate help.

  Thanks and greetings
  Nicolas

  > QUESTION: no one knows exactly where the LID OPEN/CLOSED/SENSOR?

  I'm not quite sure of the position but the LCD m module is connected to the 30pin CON1202 (CON1202 can be found in a small Bay LVDS, which is placed at the bottom of the unit)
  The 5 pins of the connector CON1202 gives the signal for the switch to COVER.

  Ive downloaded the latest drivers from the website for the card reader, but not joy.

  What should I do?

  Hello!

  Can you also tell us what ExpressCard adapter PCMICA card you have exactly?

  Regarding the driver, you should try the Vista driver if you can t find a new Windows 7 at the moment. Therefore, check the site of the factory of the adapter card.

• 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 - 17F: everything by playing the DVD player window flickers

  I have a new Toshiba Satellite Pro L40 - 17F with all the updates of Windows Vista (Home) applied. This includes those optional (for example driver updates)

  I came to be used for the first time (outside the application of windows update) and play a movie. The player (not the controls, just the player) window flashing continuously, even on the menu screens. It almost seems that the film was shot with an old film camera and is played on a projector.

  I have not really looked at it properly yet, but I wonder if this is a common problem...

  Someone at - he had the same thing? What about a solution?

  See you soon

  Not easy to say that this could be what software do you use?
  Have you tried different players? If this is not the case, check this box!

  Have you noticed this problem only play DVDs using the DVD player?
