• An excellent WIFI connection but the page cannot be displayed (until I pass to Ethernet)

  I have a HP Pavilion dv1000 notebook pc with Windows XP

  I thought I might have a virus so I reformatted recently using my restore CD (which I've done it before, but this time he has not left delete me a partition when reinstalling windows which gave me my first red flag).

  I continued & ran windows updates up to what there not to the left.

  I started having loss of WiFi problems (even if my wireless button is lit blue & wireless connection says connected & excellent). I tried to fix the connection & just about everything else I found in these pages to try (including but not limited to try each driver on hp.com download, firefox, restore internet Explorer 8 down to 7 & a fruitless Atheros download link).

  My lack of WiFi (cannot display the page) became so bad, I only access Internet using my ethernet cable now (which I'm not having regular gives also access, fix my WIFI is important as soon as possible).

  I reinstalled my backup media so I had rather not reformat again, but please let me know if there is something more to try or if it's my only option (especially if the restoration was inadequate because it didn't let me to delete the partition this time when he has in the past).

  Thank you from any & all!

  Hello

  Could you post back with a list of all the security software you have installed on the laptop.

  In the meantime, to rule out interference from malware, download and install the free version of MBAM and SUPERAntiSpyware on the links below.

  MBAM

  SUPERAntiSpyware

  When it is installed, run full scans with these two utilities.  Post back with the results.

  Then, in the guide on the following link is the process to set up a static IP address.  Do not start at the beginning, starting with the topic "assign IP address."  Do not have the Ethernet connection is connected and make sure your Wi - Fi connection is active.

  http://www.hotComm.com/FAQ/faq_staticipxp.asp

  Enter the following values.

  IP 192.168.1.120

  Subnet mask 255.255.255.0

  Default gateway 192.168.1.1

  In addition, assign the following DNS server address

  Server preferred DNS 208.67.222.222

  Auxiliary DNS 208.67.220.220 Server

  After entering these values, don't forget to click OK in each open window, before restarting the laptop.

  Check if you can now open web pages correctly.

• Satellite Pro M70 - USB port does not recognize the device

  My Satellite Pro M70 has three USB slots, one on the left and two (vertically one above the other) at the back of the laptop.

  The top slot to USB in the back started giving problems. Sometimes, my computer can't see all that I plugged in there. But if I unplug anything - usually the printer or the mouse - the computer will usually see it then.

  What is the problem? Can do nothing about it?

  My operating system is XP. and my laptop is 4.33 year.

  Thank you.

  Hi Mannix,

  Have you already updated the chipset drivers?

  I read in the forum about these questions and normally helps to reinstall the chipset driver. :)

• Satellite Pro M70 - ist is possible to change the craphics controller?

  Is it possible to change the graphics controller to my Satellite Pro M70...
  If so, where to buy a new one?

  THX

  Hello

  Well, in general it s is not possible to replace or update the graphics card.
  But I compared a Satellite Pro M70 unit because this series of laptop was delivered with different hardware configurations and I found that these installed graphics cards:
  Mobile Intel 915GM Express Chipset AlvisoGM 8 MB to 128 MB shared video memory
  ATI MOBILITY RADEON X600SE 128 MB of video memory
  ATI MOBILITY RADEON X 700 256 MB of video memory

  However, in my opinion you can not change the graphics card

• Satellite Pro L630-167 - Win 7 connection to the very slow connection menu

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro L630-167, which is connected to my network works.
  I have this problem where the screen stays just on the Please wait screen, it seems that the laptop is that connects something, but not really do anything.

  However if I had to start the computer in safe mode with network it works fine.

  Any ideas?

  I really need some help here.

  Kind regards

  JT

  Hello

  Have you noticed the problem even if the laptop is not connected to the network and if you want to load your user profile on Windows 7?

  If this isn't the case, then I guess that it has something to do with the network, and in this case, I recommend asking the network administrator for a few suggestions.

• 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 L300 - may not always connect to the same strong connection router

  I currently have a Satellite Pro L300-155. At work, the WIFI signal is strong everywhere where I am in the building because we have 2 WIFI connections. However, I can connect okay in 1 room but if I just go in the other room, I'm unable to connect - and the connection is still strong. This also happens intermittently at home.
  Is it of diagnostics that I can run on the Toshiba to test wifi?

  Where can I find what chip it is? Where is the wifi location - on a motherboard, etc?
  Can it be replaced and where I could quote from?

  Thanks in advance

  Hi cooky44,

  In my opinion, you should update the routers firmware and update your WLAN driver.

  Furthermore, I have created an interesting document on improvements to WLAN connection:

• Satellite Pro A100-828 refuses to connect to the internet with modem MDA Vario 2

  I have an Equium A60 which I use regularly as a modem for mobile internet access. Still, it connects to my MDA VARIO 2 (HTC Tytn) and gives quick access.
  However I just bought a Satellite pro a100-828 who, for some reason, refuses to connect to the internet through this phone.

  T-mobile want nothing to do with the problem and that it is a conflict between the phone and the bluetooth stack Toshiba. The phone has always look like that is going to connect and then to computer recording connected to the screen network switches the modem feature phone.

  As you can guess I'm sitting at the old equium typing this so if anyone can shed some light on this I would be very happy?

  I tried to uninstall the bluetooth stack.

  The fact that your old Equium was connected via BT to this modem?
  Perhaps a Bluetooth stack of new version of battery BT facility allows or you can try to use the same version of BT stack that is installed on the old notebook

• Satellite Pro L40 PSL43E: Unable to connect to wireless local area network

  Hello to everyone who reads,

  I've had this laptop for about 12 months and a few days ago while trying to connect to the internet, she advised that I was not connected to my router.

  I have another laptop, it connects well with wireless and it connects fine using the ethernet cable but wireless!
  Especially, when I switch the radio power on/off using the small switch on the front the same symbol rises (the cell phone, red circle with a red slash through it, then the sign of the internet!)

  I tried the update of the driver for the Atheros AR5007EG Wireless Network wireless adapt and not much happened!

  I'm not in portable computers in a big way so any advise given better would become simple?
  I saw some stuff about the removal of the cards and other things? but I don't know where to start!

  Is it a common thing with these laptops?
  Need help please, I desperately need my laptop wireless.

  Thanks a lot to all in advance

• Satellite Pro M70-275 - where is the lid switch?

  Hei,

  I have problem with backlight in my laptop (Toshiba Satellite Pro M70-275). I think that the problem will be solved completely if I find where is the button of the cover.

  I hope someone can help and guide me to the location of the switch.

  THX

  Hello

  Are you sure that the problem is the lid switch? Normally if the backlight doesn t work on the screen inverter FL needs to be replaced.
  What happens if you connect an external monitor to the laptop? You see an image?

  The FL switch is normally placed under the cover of the display. It s a little trickier to Exchange because it is necessary to remove the plastic cover of the screen.
  Maybe you should ask a technician for laptop to help.

• Should Satellite Pro M70 driver SATA?

  Satellite Pro M70 must SATA driver for HARD drive?
  If yes where can I find it?

  Hello

  Hmm. Satellite Pro M70 is a bit older, but it supports the SATA HDD controller and usually the SATA drivers should be included.

  As far as I know that Windows XP should include SP2! This is important.
  In addition, you must include the driver AHCI (Intel SATA AHCI Controller V5.1.0.1022) for Win XP.

  Usually, this driver should be required to get the XP working on the M70.
  Just Google for this Intel SATA AHCI Controller driver
  Page Intel should also provide this driver too

• Satellite Pro M70 freezes everytime when the USB port is used

  Satellite Pro M70 (SPM76) crashes every time when the USB port is used.
  The mouse works, but external HD/Extarnal card sound/Memory stick causing the laptop to freeze. All the drivers are installed right, they are the most recent and have no trouble with other users.

  The devices are all compatible. Service pack 2 is installed, and all the hardware drivers on the toshiba have been updated... again, same problem.
  The toshiba is about 2 months old and have had this problem since I got it. First I thought it was the drvers, but I cleared of all (?) other options but the USB ports.

  Hello

  Believe me, that's not easy to say what the problem may be. It is important to see if the problem occurs because of hardware or software may be. I recommend you to backup all your data and reinstall the unit using rescue media. On this way the unit will be factory settings and will be clean preinstalled. Test your USB devices and see what happens.

  Try to use some standard like USB stick or external HARD disk parts, because in this case, you must not install any drivers please. If you use other devices like USB webcam with own software and drivers, it is possible that something goes wrong, but what. On this path, it is not possible to say.

• Satellite Pro L100 132 broken badly - how to check?

  Well, here you have it: I dropped to the bottom of my laptop on the floor cement, some three weeks after buying, but it still works! (It's a Satellite Pro L100 132) With technicians, we ordered the necessary parts: plastic covers around the screen and the keyboard.

  No other problems are visible (I actually use the little guy at the present time, it behaves as usual), but you never know. So, my question: what are the problem areas that I need to check that everythings continues to work very well? And how can I archive them actually?

  I have heard things on the HARD drive, but not in details. In fact it was the fault of all stupid of the bag, it slipped right on my shoulder.

  Confound it!

  Hello

  It a shame to hear this.
  But maybe you re a lucky guy and nothing was serious damage.
  If the screen is working properly and that you are able to boot the operating system so I guess also the HARD drive was not damage and it works fine.

  I would recommend to open Notepad or remove something if you have no experience. I think that technicians should check your laptop. But if everything works fine, so I think that there is no need to s.
  Take care ;)

  I use XP Pro and it appeared in Device Manager as a mass storage device (with yellow apostrophe) soas suggested in a previous thread, I installed a driver of a similar model - now no yellow appostrophe but still does not work.

  Can anyone help please?
  Thank you very much
  Roy

  You don't have a SD card reader but 5 in 1 and for this device card reader, you need to install Cardbus Driver version 2.0.0.1. Have you already installed?
  It is available for your model of laptop. I found it on the Toshiba support page.
