Satellite Pro U400-135 turn

I have a problem with my Satellite Pro U400-135.

Sometimes when I press the button to turn off my laptop or choose log in windows xp, my pc isn't turned off but reboot!

Can someone help me?

Thank you
Davide.

Hello

I think the laptop doesn't close properly sometimes, because some background process cannot be closed properly and that affect the process of closing.

I had this problem from time to time also.
I use the CCleaner which will repair the registry and clean the system.
Also, I recommend disabling some processes that are not so important for you.
You can do it in MSCONFIG-> startup

  • Dynadock and Satellite Pro U400-135 - external monitor question

    Hello.
    We have a serious problem on the 26 dynadock vga e Satellite Pro U400-135 unit

    The problem is:
    If set to host as a single external monitor during startup frequent windows loses resolution external monitor.

    Example of resolution monitor post seting like 1280 x 1024, start with connected dyndaock, frequent resolution 1280 x 800 not correct and external monitor image not correct.

    Operating system is Vista 32 bit, driver dynadock is 2.3 update and dynadock displaylink displaylink site 4.6.16208 site.
    Same problem with Windows Xp 32 bit.

    How can I solve the problem?

    Hello

    If I understand the first message, external monitor resolution automatically goes to 1280 x 800 even if you set it to 1280 x 1024.
    I guess that your external monitor is connected to the dynadock.
    Is this good?

    AFAIK, you can customize the video settings of the dynodock.
    It provides a video output in two modes: Mode and extended Mode of mirror.

    Mirror mode creates an identical display of your computer to the external monitor screen. In mirror Mode, the dynadock automatically selects the settings (screen resolution, color quality and discount rates) for the external monitor that will allow the best resolution based on your computer's settings.

    Maybe you use the mirror mode and therefore the dynadock the resolution automatically because it of the best for the external monitor.

    I recommend checking the Dynadock manual for more details.
    There are two modes are described there.

  • Satellite Pro U400 - 150 - display has stopped working

    Hello guys,.

    yesterday I used to turn on my laptop (Satellite Pro U400 - 14) and it worked fine but after 1 minute my screen stopped working. I tried to restart the PC, and it worked OK again. But I turn on my laptop today and it didn t work at all. Everything is OK, PC works fine, everything is good, but only the display is black.

    I Don t know what happened with my laptop. :/

    Is there anyone who knows the answer to this problem?

    Thanks for all your answers.

    > Everything is OK, PC works fine, everything is good, but only the display is black.
    Of course, this isn't all right if nothing appears on the screen

    Connect an external monitor to check if you would be able to see something on the screen?
    Do this! Usually you should use the FN + F5 to alternate between the monitor internal and external.
    If this is not possible and nothing could be seen on the 2nd monitor, the graphics card problem can cause this.

  • Satellite Pro U400-13D stops several times

    Hello world

    I only use the Satellite Pro U400-13D for office work. In the last days the laptop turns off without warning during normal operation.
    After a reboot, the problem recurs after a random time.

    This is known issue? What can I do about it?

    Thank you

    Alexander Lorenz

    Hello Alexander

    In General, this can happen on each laptop model and can be caused by different reasons. It can happen due to overheating or maybe some malfunction of the equipment.
    On this path, it is certainly not easy to offer accurate diagnosis or explanation why this happen.

    Have you noticed unusual behavior in front of your laptop turns off?
    Is it when some software is running?
    Portable temperature (surface where your hands are placed) is higher than usual?

  • Re: Satellite Pro U400-160 - freezes when copying larger files or videos

    Hello:

    I have a Satellite Pro U400-160 and a VERBATIM external hard drive USB eSATA combo.

    If I turn on AHCI mode recognizes the drive, but when copying the video files or large file size, the system is frozen. However if I remove the mode AHCI works correctly. I have the version 9.8.9.1023 Intel (r) Matrix Storage Manager and my laptop BIOS v4.0 and Windows Vista Business.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Normally the AHCI mode has nothing to do with an external HARD drive. It is only important for the internal HARD disk if you install Windows.

    Anyway, you have installed all the updates of Windows for Vista?
    In addition, you should test another external HARD disk or with another cable.

  • Satellite Pro U400 - sound of the wheel does not work anymore

    The wheel of sound control in my Satellite Pro U400 works not properly since last month.

    Now, I have to use the volume bar in Vista to adjust properly. When I try to lower the volume by turning the wheel, as I did before, he constantly increases the volume after reducing to a few percent. If I flip it is very very slow, sometimes it decreases the volume a little, but other times it increases. Also when I'm in a word processor, turn the wheel to the right input 'c' character ' on the screen.
    There is no problem when I try to increase the volume, it does its job.

    Do you think it is related to hardware or can it be a problem of driver or something. Is there a solution?

    Thank you

    Hello!

    In your case, I would setup a pilot of his most recent. Search on the Toshiba site and check:

    I had this problem on another laptop Toshiba also and after reinstalling with the recovery disk the problem has been resolved. I also tried updating the drivers and so far, but without success.

  • Satellite Pro U400 - 15 p hangs after enabling the Realtek RTL8187B WLan card

    Hello

    I recently bought the Toshiba Satellite Pro u400 - 15 p. This notebook is originally without any operating system included. I installed Windows XP Home SP3 on it and downloaded all the drivers from the Web from Toshiba website. Everything works well except the WiFi - RTL8187B.

    Driver has been installed correctly, when I turn the WLAN on everything is always OK, but when I connect to a network wireless Windows XP hangs after some time - without notice or BSOD - and the only thing I can do is to restart the PC holding down the button for 5 seconds.

    I have:
    -installed the latest BIOS (v3.70),
    -installed the last version of drivers available (v6.1150.1112.2008)
    -tried how it works on Vista Home Basic - it does not either, but on Vista only connection must be reset.

    I searched on the web (perhaps not all), including this forum, but I was unable to find a solution.
    Now I am seriously considering warranty claim, please help me to avoid that it ;)

    Hello

    It's really strange.
    Are you sure that this happens because of the WLan card activated 100%?
    I mean there could be another reason for this gel

    I'm U400 too and I m running Win XP and Vista without problem!
    At that time, I m using WiFi and everything works ok

    I think it s not a Wlan related question, but there must be another reason why this laptop locks maybe a problem of RAM or something like that.

  • Re: Satellite Pro U400 - Windows could not start, how to recover?

    I hope this is the right forum to display this property (if not, please let me know where I should post this) and nude w / a beginner like me. Any help or direction will be appreciated.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro U400-160 is more than a year. I have not used a lot lately, because I usually use my netbook computer for day to day stuff, but the Toshiba contains some files I want to see lost. That's the message that came when I turned on my laptop for the last time:

    "Unable to start Windows. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.
    To solve the problem:
    1. Insert your Windows installation disc and restart the computer.
    2. choose your language settings, and then click Next.
    3. click on "repair your computer".

    If you do not have the disk, contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance

    File: \Boot\BCD
    Status: 0xc000000f
    Info: An error occurred trying to read the boot configuration data. "

    Usually, I store all my software as a whole but I recently changed from home and for the life of me, I can't find the Toshiba recovery system disk. Even if I did, however, which would mean losing all files on my computer?
    My question is, is there a way to fix this without losing all data? Should I first try to save the data somehow and then solve the problem? And finally, how to solve this problem with/without the recovery CD?

    Thanks in advance. Any help will be MUCH appreciated.
    PS. This look is like a virus? What is a windows update that has corrupted some files?

    Hi monstarika,

    You can access the Windows Advanced Boot menu and boot into safe mode?
    If so try also to start the recovery of HARD drive if you choose fix my computer. If the operating system preinstalled by Toshiba is still installed, you can use this feature.

    If this work of t doesn't and you don t have the recovery disc, you can order directly in an enw one of Toshiba. That s no problem because you can order it online here:

    Hello

    I see that you have switched from Vista to XP.

    First of all I recommend you update the BIOS.
    As I m not wrong on the European driver Toshiba page, you should find a newer version of the BIOS.

    You will need to upgrade Win XP to the last State.
    The XP must be up-to-date and all service packs, hotfixes and patches MS must be installed in your laptop.

    Access the Device Manager, and then score in each USB hub root, you must disable the option called allow the computer to turn off this device to save power
    You can find this option in the properties-> tab power management

    After the reboot, a toshiba program starts and requested a restart more.
    After that, I have a "C ++ Runtime Libery Error ' whenever I start the computer.

    Y at - it someone who has tried something similar or has good ideas for what I can do...

    Many greetings Asger Benzon

    As Akuma said, have you installed extra RAM? Remove the extra RAM and try without it.

    In your position I would like to reinstall the OS (Operating System). Backup your data first, because everything on the HARD drive will be erased.
    After this, start Notepad, and then press F8 or boot from the recovery disc. Then you can fix the computer. Windows will be reinstalled.

  • Satellite Pro U400 starts and overheating problems

    Hello

    6 weeks ago, I bought a Satellite Pro U400. Shortly after that I bought, I noticed that the computer overheating. After 1 hour of use, it becomes very hot in the touchpad area, as well in the base of the computer and on the touchpad itself. It is very annoying because I almost burn my fingers with the touch pad.

    The problems began 10 days ago. I had been using the laptop for an hour when it suddenly turned off without notice. Power outage? I don't know Don t. I looked like a sytem of overheating protection. My previous laptop had the same problem. After a few minutes, I was able to turn it back on.

    Then it happened again a few days ago, but it took me 5 minutes to turn on. Yesterday, it happened again, and after 45 minutes without response, I went to bed. In the morning, I was able to turn it on.

    This also happens when wifi is disabled, it is not only a problem with the wifi card, overheating of the system.

    Am I the only one having this problem? I will try to send it back to Toshiba for a replacement or a refund.

    Is this normal in a really new machine?

    Thank you

    First, the warming of the touchpad is normal for almost every laptop, due to construction. Under this, there are the HARD drive and it produces heat. With my last books, and it was not bad, too.
    But really to get so hot?

    Due to the protection against overheating, it is normal that you cannot turn on your laptop immediately.
    But the wireless card is not the device in question, because it's a very small piece of hardware and produce little heat.

    You said, you had this problem with your notebook previous too. Let me ask you, when you use your notebooks? What your table surface there or is there no matter what on that table cloth?

    What I can tell you right now is, to check your locations of fantilation for all dust or maybe you have objects near it so that hot air can not cool.

  • 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

  • The update of the BIOS on Satellite Pro U400?

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro U400 (PSU41E) running Windows 7 x 64 and I try to update the BIOS to version 4.70 to 4.00.

    Whenever I try to do it from Windows using WinPhlash which comes with the download on the Toshiba site it seems to freeze when you try to Flash the new BIOS.
    I connected as the local administrator, tried to use other programs flash and even tried to do from a USB flash drive with no luck.

    Can someone please help me and explain how do I update the BIOS?

    Hello

    > tried to use other flash programs
    Never use other flash programs! In the worst case, you could damage the ROM module and then it must be replaced. Use only the program flash Toshiba that is tested and designed for laptop and the version of the BIOS.

    The update of the BIOS program is also designed for Windows, it s a Windows Update program.

    Satellite Pro U400 wasn t comes with Windows 7 so I guess you did your own installation. Value added package is required for the update of the BIOS program and can be downloaded on the European driver of Toshiba download page where is your laptop model:
