Satellite Pro M40X-244: really the life of the battery

Please, I need the following information to check the proper functioning of the battery.

The technical specifications of the laptop shows:
Max battery life: 03:16 (Mobile Mark) hours.
But my laptop battery happens very quickly (hour) to 50% and then end up in a few minutes.
The notebobk is new: buyed at the end of October.

Who REALLY is the battery life?

Thank you

Hello

Well, it's not easy to say the exactly battery working time, because it depends on the use of the laptop. As far as I know that it s about 3 hours. But if you play games or watch DVDs on the life expectancy of the battery unit is shorter than if you use the laptop with office applications. In addition, you can set different modes in the power management utility.
This option can affect the battery life.

But I think that the battery has a malfunction in your case. It s not a problem if the battery performance goes to 50% and then finished in a few minutes.
I suggest you contact the ASP. You may need to replace the battery.

Good bye

    Hi padi.

    This s really strange question...

    More details on your laptop would be interesting. You use the pre-installed Windows version or you have installed another OS?

    Theoretically, it could be a hardware malfunction or software/driver problem. In a first step, I would reinstall Windows using Toshiba recovery disc.

    Hello

    Have you checked the graphics settings? The settings of the TV must be set to PAL (most of Europe).
    In addition, you should check your TV device if it s can receive the S-video signal.

    It is not easy to say what the problem is here. Have you noticed something strange with LED power control? It is also possible that the electronic power supply do troubled. Try to talk with authorized Toshiba and explain the situation. If you open only one Notepad, uneducated, it may be simply worse.

    Hello

    When you make a dial-up connection, a standard telephone line transmits information. Note that a phone is not necessary just the line. When the line is used for telecommunications, the phone line busy for incoming calls. In most cases, digital telephone lines do not work with analog modems. You must have a standard (analog) phone line to transmit information.

    In order to minimize interruptions, it is better to use a line that doesn't have a call on hold or multiple extensions. When a modem sharing a line with regular phones, it is important to inform people not to pick up the handset, while the modem is in use.

    If someone picks up an extension, they will be greeted with a shout loud and the modem disconnects. Incoming calls on a call waiting system will also cause the modem disconnect. You can use the function call waiting to cancel to avoid this problem.

    Another issue to consider is that some of the newer telephone systems are not compatible with standard modems. A school or professional phone that has a variety of features, such as call waiting, voicemail and call-one parking, maybe isn't compatible with a modem.

  • Update hard disc on Satellite Pro M40X

    For several seasons, I want to replace the hard drive of 80 GB (Toshiba MK8026GAX) on my Satellite Pro M40X PSM4YE model.

    I encountered the problem that the new a * WD Scorpio WD1200BEVE drive * (120 GB enhanced IDE) is not recognized in the BIOS.

    No solution to my problem?

    Hello

    Sometimes a BIOS update help in such situations. Did you already check if you have the latest version of the BIOS on your machine?

    The other point is: HDD´s not ALL are compatible, then maybe it would be good for you to take another disk and check it with this one.
    Maybe it s just an incompatibility between your machine and the HARD drive?

    It would be a sort of troubleshooting and I'd be happy to hear any comments from you. :)

  • Satellite Pro M40X upgrade 2 GB

    See you soon

    First of all, are the existing no. 1, 5 GB modules on this planet. And I mean the whole of the planet. :)

    It's the second module is under the keyboard, which means:

    If you want 2 Gig of RAM, so you need to remove the keyboard and exchange the modules. That's all, but don t ask me how to exchange it.

  • Satellite Pro A100 - 244 PSAAC - RAM upgrade Question

    Hello everyone,

    I have Satellite Pro A100 - 244 (PSAAC) comes with standard RAM "512 (533 MHz)" and I replaced it with 1 GB (533 MHz)

    And now, I want to add 2 GB of RAM in the other slot but I couldn't find RAM 2 GB with bus (533 MHz), I can find only the Rams with (667 MHz)

    I just want to know if it is acceptable to add these two RAMS with these different bus "1 GB (533 MHz) with 2 GB (667 MHz).

    Please let me know if there a danger or cause any problem or if the computer would decrease performance

    Looking forward to your help

    Best regards
    Sammy

    667 MHz * should * work at 533 MHz, but his has not guaranteed to work, you will need to test it before buying the memory.

    Memory usually has a SPD table that tells the BIOS which timings to use at different speeds, but even if the SPD has a 533 MHz on the table, there may always be a compatibility problem.

  • Satellite Pro L500 - stops when the power cord removed

    Toshiba Satellite Pro L500 stops when the power cord is removed even with the battery to 100%. I removed the battery and all the indications associated with battery answer correctly. For example turns off, Toshiba Health Monitor also indicates when the battery is removed. If installed Health monitor indicates that the battery is at 100%.

    Someone please help. I have not installed anything new.

    Hey,.

    For me, the matter is clear: the battery can't hold a charge so the laptop will be shut down because it has no power.

    I think you need to replace the battery with a new one and you can get a provider of service authorized in your country. Simply contact the guy and ask that they can tell you how much it would cost.

    You can find a list of all FSA here:

  • Satellite M70 do not charge the battery

    Hello

    I agree with the user above.
    This really looks like a malfunction of the battery. I put t know how old laptop is but generally cover the battery for about 1 year.

    You know that, after the words of 500 of loading and unloading procedures battery automatically loses performance and battery life battery decreases.
    It s nothing unusual.

    But if the battery is new, you must contact the ASP (partner) in your country.

  • Satellite A100 - will not charge the battery

    Hello

    I have ned to help. My Satellite A100 will not charge the battery. He works the power adaptor for the led indicates charging status, battery shows 1% of loading tatus information, but none does change - no loading any time. When disconnected everything just stops off like normal desktop.

    I've already put battery in and out, made upgrades to the antivir software, makes Toshiba controls, tests, but what ever he did did not any change. If there is no way for restoration of battery how to check what the problem is I have no second battery or AC I can always buy new batttery but I don't know if the old one is broken and weather new would work properly?

    Best regards
    pawelg

    Hi pawelg,

    I agree with the user above. The battery can be charged only up to 500 times, and after that, it must be replaced. I think it's the case now, I mean that everything works correctly on the AC adapter so I think that the battery must be the reason for this.

    By the way: you can buy a new battery to an authorized service provider. ;)
