• Satellite Pro U400-11V - Sharp noise when starting with connected screen

  Hello

  We received 5 x computers laptops Satellite Pro U400-11V, are excellent, with one exception:

  When you start (it happens on all of them) with a screen VGA monitor plugged in, a high beep is played from what looks like the speaker system. It occurs just before the first splash screen windows.

  Once the windows login screen is displayed a monitor can be connected to any problem & works very well.

  What can I check? I have had a look but do not find all the tracks so far, where this post.

  Thank you

  Perhaps you are meaning that the beep POST (Power on self test)?

  The laptop still sounds if the POST has been successfully passed.

  Parts of the motherboard will be verified during POST, and if everything is ok, a beep is displayed.

  If something would be a mistake, the laptop will not start and different beeps would appear.

• Satellite Pro U400-11V - Installation using the floppy from XP downgrade

  Hello

  Yesterday I had to replace my HARD drive once it is simply dead.
  I didn't know it was a big deal that I had lost any data.
  I would just like to re - install Windows XP using the Downgrade XP disk came with the laptop.

  It turns out that: I have about 10 discs Downgrade XP each almost identical looking and everyone, I assume, associated with a particular Toshiba laptop my company bought at some point.
  Now, I have no idea what drive is the one that came with my Toshiba Satellite Pro U400-11V.

  What I did:
  -We selected at random.
  -Installed Win Xp Pro.
  -Tried to activate Windows.
  -It indicates that the product key is bad (and some drivers are missing, so it is obviously not the disc that came with the laptop, but he got me so far).
  -Correct the product key according to the key that is located on a sticker at the bottom on the laptop *.
  * On the sticker, this key is an OEMAct Windows Vista Business key, the OS of the laptop came with.
  -L'activation of Windows will not accept the key to the sticker.

  So I have 2 questions:
  1. is there another method of re - install Windows XP Pro using the * original * Downgrade XP disk that came with?
  2 (leading to #1) is it possible to identify which drive is the one shipped with my laptop? Perhaps by checking some serial numbers on the disc?

  Worst case scenario I'll have to make (at most) 10 Windows installs until one works.
  But I was really hoping some help & advice.

  I can't wait to hear all the answers,
  Thank you!

  Your ad is really funny :D

  I put t know how your Win XP drive looks like. My laptop came with the recovery disk and it was mentioned on the label that it's Toshiba recovery disc.

  In addition he s already enabled so I put t need to activate the operating system by using this key.
  Also, the key at the bottom of the unit belongs to the preinstalled operating system and it will NOT work with the new Win XP or another operating system.

  But back to your Win XP disks
  I recommend that you check the single disc... maybe a disc is already activated

• Satellite Pro U400 - 24 - crack appeared in the frame above the DVD drive

  I have a fairly new Satellite Pro U400 - 24 hours (seven months), where a crack appeared just above the DVD drive, close to the screen where the slot ends. I know for sure that I havn't dropped it, so I just want to know if it is a problem that everyone knows? If the framework becomes fragile due to heating (it's pretty warm when he must preform)

  Hey,.

  I put t really know why this happens, but on my Satellite U400 I couldn t notice such a problem. I have a year now and it works perfectly and the case doesn't have a crack or something.

  In my opinion, you should contact an authorized service provider. Guys can order a new replacement part and swap it for you! :)

  Hello!

  Have you tried to update the display on your laptop driver? Check the Toshiba site for an update:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

  In addition, it would be interesting to know if you are running the factory settings or you have installed your own version of Windows?
  And what operating system are you using? Have you installed all Windows updates?

  For external LCD, monitors, you must set the screen refresh rate of 60 Hz.
  And if you want to change the resolution of the screen, you must select the second monitor in the graphics options on Windows.

  Good bye

  Everytime I plugg in adapter (external power supply) there is a kind of droning noise static noise when I use the audio out (headphones).

  Hello

  I guess that's not happed running the laptop on battery only. Right?

  I think that this issue is released to a grounding problem.
  I read different forums on this kind of question it.
  Usually use the 3 cord power cable should help get rid you of this noise.

  In your case I would recommend asking for cord 3 power cable (maybe you need another adapter that supports the 3-wire power cord) to a Toshiba authorized maintainer.

• Is satellite Pro M70-235 - possible to upgrade the processor?

  Hello

  Is it possible to upgrade of processor in this laptop (Pentium M 750-1866 MHz) Pentium M 780 2266 MHz?

  Thank you..

  Hello

  Theoretically, it of possible to exchange the processor on your laptop, but nobody will be able to tell if the laptop works fine with the new processor or not.

  You mustn't forget that the BIOS and motherboard is designed for the preinstalled CPU and it s not tested with another processor. Normally a newer or faster CPU produces more heat and I don t know if the Assembly of cooling on your laptop is sufficient for this.

  If you still have the warranty of your laptop you will lose because Toshiba doesn't support the CPU upgrade:

• Satellite Pro U400-11V - charges only battery when the computer is turned off

  Following a reformatting my hard drive of the computer, my laptop recognizes only the AC/DC power adapter when it is turned off. When the computer is turned on, it does not recognize the AC adapter.

  Changed the power supply ac and it made no difference.

  Have also tried an update of the BIOS (3.0), I am running Windows Vista 32 bit.

  Hello

  I doubt it has something to do with the software or the operating system. In my opinion, that this looks like a hardware problem, because the battery will be always charged if AC/DC adapter is plugged in. That's why it of not necessary to enable this setting in the configuration of the software.

  If your BIOS is already updated, contact an authorized service provider. Technicians can check your laptop and maybe the motherboard needs to be replaced.

• Re: Satellite Pro U400-11V - mass storage controller

  Whenever I turn on the camera, I get the message "New hardware" about "mass storage controller".

  How can I fix it?

  Research on driver downloads is not one for this name.

  It's strange. I mean when a certain piece of hardware is correctly installed, it is done with the installation.

  A question: did you install your own operating system or what? Is when the operating system is installed with the Toshiba recovery image, this message will not appear.

• Satellite Pro L670 - 14 p - Question on the image editing screen

  Hi people,

  Have just bought the above laptop model online supercharged, 6 GB of RAM and had a few doubts about its relevance to specific tasks after reading a forum or 2 - (not this one). As I have not started because I can return it for a full refund (but must notify the seller prior to Wednesday 12 may not start if I want the refund) I was not able to solve the problems that I may have to know;

  1. I bought a versatile laptop because it is widescreen (have never owned a laptop before and served to 23 "screen on a desktop computer) BUT I do a reasonable amount of photography and the machine should display images at a decent level. It is a sine qua non for the purchase of the Toshiba. If it will not be so he can go back. Unfortunately I was not able to find the similar model in any store on site to see how it behaves.

  2 have you read angles of vision are not large.

  3. good quality is mediocre.

  Have anyone of you experience with this model, particularly if you're a photgraphy, and can you comment please? Any help will be appreciated.

  Thank you very much.

  You can use this laptop for different purposes
  The laptop supports a 17.3 HD + TFT color LCD with a resolution of 1600 x 900 and 16:9 aspect ratio.
  For me, this looks like a great LCD!

  The laptop supports the audio chip Realtek ALC259-GR like most laptops.
  Can not say something about the speakers, but it looks like they are not too small

• Satellite Pro U400-15I - wheel of sound not working after installing Windows 7

  The wheel of sound on my Satellite Pro U400 - 15l does nothing after the clean install of Windows 7 to XP pro.
  I used the recommended software update tool downloaded from Toshiba. The VolumeIndicator.exe process is running and the sound works OK - but not under the control of the wheel! The Toshiba power control is not here, but this isn't a problem.

  Any suggestion is welcome.
