  When I open the internet connection:

  -Once the modem is OK immediately and I have the internet connection.
  -a few times I once the error message "phone line is not compatible with this modem. Analog phone line are supported only. "Disable the signal: check the modem and phone line connection. But the second time everything is OK.
  -Sometimes I have to try several times before you have the modem with the telephone lines connection.

  Please help me solve this problem.

  Thank you

  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.

  Good bye

• Satellite Pro M40X upgrade 2 GB

  I read that my satellite pro m40x can be improved _up to 2 Gb_ of Ram, but I see just an expansion slot.
  The internal memory is 512 MB.

  How is it possible to get 2 GB totally? Is there a module of 1.50 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.

  I don't know Don t. ;)

  Hello

  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.

  Graphics card cannot be updated as on desktop computers. I put t know how it is on this model laptop but the graphics card is fixed on the motherboard and cannot be traded.

  Hello
  I have a Satellite Pro M40X but it read only MMC/SD with a capacity of 1 GB. If I try with 2GB or 4GB nothing appens. What can I do? What drivers I try to upgrade to Windows XP to be able to read cards up to 4 GB?

  thanx

  Hello

  The drive will not read the 4 GB SD card due to hardware limitation!
  CA? s not a software but a hardware problem!

  Even you will update the driver, it will not help get the 4 GB SD card running!

• 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. :)

  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.

• Satellite Pro C50 keyboard problems - A - 1 L 6

  Hello

  I just bought this new Satellite Pro.

  I have installed all the drivers and updated the bios to the latest version, but I still have the same problem: when I write, many times my keyboard writes double letters (for example, all ten words written keyboard a letter double, as "keybboard").

  I tried also to change the properties of the keypad on the control panel of Windows 8, but nothing has changed.

  I called support, but they just told me that I have to bring my laptop in a helpdesk: but I need my new computer to work, and I wouldn't be happy to lose at least 4 weeks!

  And, support told me that, if the laptop has no hardware problem, I would have to pay for assistance...
  .
  So, this is my first experience and unlucy in the world of Toshiba...
  Is there someone who can give me some advice to solve this problem?
  It may be a problem running on the new laptops, and someone knows how to fix this?

  Thank you very much!

  Hi guys,.

  As far as I know that these similar keyboard problems in the past could be resolved by the BIOS updated.
  I found the new BIOS for Satellite Pro C50 - A

  Worth a try

  Another question: If someone has done to test a USB external keyboard?
  In the case where the external USB keyboard would work correctly, this issue isn't associated with BIOS or keyboard controller but probably his keyboard fault internal.

• Satellite Pro C660 - keyboard problems

  This issue is one for computer laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro C660-1UX running Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1.

  Some of the keys on Board (E, T, U, I, O, A, B, N, and the Enter key) fail to register.
  All keys tested so far seem to register normally.

  When you connect an external USB keyboard, all the keys work properly. When you use the integrated keyboard or external USB keyboard, however, pressed some key is selected for about 2-3 seconds so that his character register. This makes typing incredibly slow and is naturally unacceptable.

  I checked the Manager of devices looking for errors, but can't find one. The keyboard driver is classified properly installed and functional, and driver update indicates that the latest version is in already in service.

  I've also scanned for viruses using Spybot and Malware bytes and also with laptops own antivirus software pre-installed. All the analyses of the entire system refer a none found the message of threat.

  I read that the keyboards on these machines can sometimes be problematic, which could respond only to edge, some function keys. The fact that all the external USB keyboard keys work seems to confirm this. However, the fact that the keyboard both onboard and external is affected by the same slow pressure might also suggest a bios problem - but that this laptop computer is several years old and working perfectly, why bios suddenly would cause this problem.

  I visited the Toshiba site and based on this laptop with the part number: PSC0ME-02100SEN, I have concluded (rightly or wrongly) that the correct bios download version is 1, 70 - WIN, only when I read the following installation instructions http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9502M10000R01.htm bios
  I became quite concerned, like installing the bios update seems far from simple.

  Does anyone know if it is possible to download and install the bios right through an update automated versus manual download and installation step by step, which, if not carried out as planned, could make the laptop completely unusable.

  Has anyone reading this post experienced similar problems with this make and model laptop and was able to return successfully to the good operating condition. If so, how?

  All constructive advice would be welcome.

  > When you connect an external USB keyboard, all keys work correctly.

  This means that the keyboard controller is OK and the internal keyboard is defective.
  To resolve this problem of keyboard, internal keyboard needs to be replaced.

  > However, the fact that the keyboard on board as external is affected by the same keypress slow could also suggest a bios problem - but this laptop computer is several years old and works perfectly, why bios suddenly would cause this problem.

  Hmm I n t think so
  The keyboard delay can be bound to parameters.
  You can check this in the control panel-> keyboard

• Satellite Pro C850 keyboard does not work properly and opens several programs

  My satellite pro C850 1HE keyboard intermittently stops working correctly, and begins to open programs, for example, by pressing F will open the file search, C open computer this kind of thing

  is there a permanent solution to this problem?

  This is not something to do with installed programs is not something to do with the browser settings.
  restarting the computer works in a short time, but that is a long time, it's really annoying because I use this for work and study!

  > is there a permanent solution to this problem?

  The question is what causes this problem? Is it related hardware or software related issue?

  Why n t connect a USB keyboard just to check if the same would happen?

  In case the USB keyboard would work fine, I guess that the internal keyboard failures and the solution would be a simple replacement of the defective part.

  I didn't find any official document on this subject, as you say, known issue. Can you please send a link?

  I have the Satellite L20 and there is not much difference for Satellite Pro L20 and I have no such problems, but I'm interesting about this. The L20 keyboard is not the best one, but all the characters are not displayed correctly. Maybe you type fast. ;)

  The whole story seems incredible. Keyboard and new laptop does not work?
  Install the check and image recovery again if the situation is the same. If the problem persists contact your local dealer, explain the situation and ask for Exchange.
