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.

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    As I m not wrong on the European driver Toshiba page, you should find a newer version of the BIOS.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

  • Satellite Pro U400 - micro reception problem after installing xp sp3

    I had Vista, then I recently installed windows XP SP3 from scratch (not downgraded). I downloaded the latest drivers from Toshiba and install. Now, I have a problem with the microphone. Speakers audio playback is fine, but the built-in microphone reception level is very low and often unrecognizable. I use a voip program. In Vista, micro worked better.

    Now in Windows XP Home edition, I told myself that they cannot hear me or my voice is very weak and difficult to recognize. I also tried to sound recorder in windows. My voice is as if I am talking about ten meters.
    I have an external microphone, so I can't say if line microphone. works well.

    In messages previous people mention a fix for xp download his questions but I'm not sure if applies to my situation.

    Thank you

  • Satellite Pro L40 does not start after changing the BIOS settings

    Changed some settings in the bios last night and now when I boot I get a screen black lights flash and hard drive lights up but nothing on the screen.

    There is no password on the bios... How would a BIOS reset to normal?

    I put a windows disc now, I hear the disc spin but nothing on the screen

    (I think that I have come to the right place on the forum)

    It s a Toshiba Satellite Pro L40 model psl4be.

    Thank you

    > There was no bios password... How would a BIOS reset to normal?

    You can set the default BIOS ONLY inside the BIOS access BIOS by pressing F2 or at the beginning of the initialization of the order

    But I doubt that this problem is related to the BIOS.
    Maybe it s just a simple bad luck that this problem happened exactly after change something in the BIOS.

    Try connecting an external monitor and check if you can see something on the 2nd screen.

  • 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.

    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 - audio quality is not good

    OK this problem has been plaging me for years. I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro U400 windows 8.1.

    The sound quality is terrible.
    I can remember it's bad in windows 7.

    Contextant driver is bad, and so is the generic driver windows 8.1.

    Help, please

    To be honest, I have no idea what you mean exactly by the quality is terrible.
    I've owned a notebook Satellite U400 happened and I have to say that the sound quality was quite good.

    Satellite U400 is a small portable 13.3 and the speakers have been adjusted to the dimensions of the laptop.
    The Conexant audio chip is part of the motherboard and you will not be able to replace it.

    If you want to use another sound card, you can try to use an external USB audio interface.
    I use this external sound solution for my home recording studio.

    The audio interface is connected to the USB port of the laptop s and the external speakers are initiated for the external audio interface.

    By the way: isn't Satellite U400 is the list of the supported 8.1 notebooks... Win so you won't find not all drivers Win 8.1 for this unit on the Toshiba driver website.

  • Satellite Pro U400-130 - restarts after shutdown down

    Hello

    I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro U400-130. The operating system is Windows Vista 32 bit.

    I have a problem when I try to quit the Menu Start-Shut Down laptop. The system will reboot after that. Then if I select closes without connecting to my account, it really stops.

    Please, could you help me with this?

    It's a little confusing because you said if I select shut down without logging in to my account, it really stops.
    Say you stop without connection?

    However, I think you make a mistake.
    Make sure you have all the Service Packs and hotfixes installed for Vista.

    Maybe the button closure is misconfigured. The default action is sleep. To verify this action. Open a command prompt and enter
    Powercfg.cpl, 1
    There you can change the action of power button in the start menu.

    You will not be able to restore the factory settings because another operating system has been installed on the first partition.
    Usually by pressing F8 immediately after the laptop has been powered should allow the advanced on-screen menu. Here, you should choose option called repair my computer and Toshiba Recovery HARD drive.

    But if this doesn t work then you will not be able to use HARD drive recovery.
    In this case, you will need to order the new CD from here:
