  Hello!
  I'm here for my first thread with the usual question of compatibility of drive and the dvd ram...

  I made a mistake: I bought the drive and ram without looking on this forum...

  In any case, on the optical drive:
  I saw I had to look at the manual... but I did not because my laptop is second hand.

• Satellite Pro L10 - need info on compatible video cards

  I'm looking to upgrade my laptop with a nvidia Geoforce 7600 or 7900 graphics card.

  I just wanted to check if there was any problems of compatibility/installation?

  See you soon

  Hi Johnny

  You can search for compatible graphics cards until you die ;) and you will not succeed :(
  Why?... because portable computers cannot be upgraded with a different graphics card.
  The graphics card is attached to the motherboard and it s not removable on a simple passerby!

  That is why don t waste a time for any upgrade GPU! If you need then computer to play latest games I would not recommend buying a desktop PC as desktop PC parts are easy removable and you can upgrade the parts such as the CPU and GPU on a simple way!

  Best regards

• Re: Need driver XP SATA/RAID for Satellite Pro U400

  Hi all

  I've searched and searched, but I can't for the life of me find suitable driver to install XP on my machine. It came pre-installed with Vista which is useless to me because of the instability, bugs, just be a poor OS. I got the new laptop for a week now and have not been able to use again, so it would really appreciate someone pointing me in the direction of SATA/RAID drivers for XP.

  Thank you!
  E.g.

  Hello

  The Satellite Pro U400 needs a SATA driver, and you can find it in the Intel Matrix Storage Manager package.

  This storage manager can be downloaded from the European driver Toshiba page (see the series of portable different) or you can also download it from the Intel site.

  The SATA driver must be installed during XP Setup process. You must press the F6 key to include a 3rd party (SATA driver) from the external USB floppy drive.

  If you don t have a floppy drive, then you could create a clean XP CD with SATA driver. NLite freeware software can be useful for these jobs

  My advice is; Google a bit for nLite for more details.

  Good bye

• External monitor flickers always on Satellite Pro U400 - 13G

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro U400 - 13G that connects external monitors with VGA port.

  I am running Vista Ultimate 64-bit with the latest graphics drivers from intel, I also tried the drivers from the Toshiba download site.

  Anyway... I tried 3 different external screens to connect a LG with resolution 1280 x 1024, an acer projector with resolution 1024 x 768 and a Samsung SyncMaster 226BW running 1680 x 1050.

  All these monitors simply sparkles... a higher resolution = more flicker. It seems to be worse with gray background.

  I tried the system Windows 7 RC1, same problem.

  When I unplug my diet, Twinkle seems to be... a little reduced, there is still a lot of flicker.

  Someone knows how to fix this?

• 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.

  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.

• 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.

• I need to replace the battery and AC adapter of the Satellite Pro U400-160

  I have a Satellite Pro U400-160.

  I need to replace the battery and the charger of my Toshiba, but I am wary about compatibility issues.

  Any battery for Satellite Pro U400 is suitable for mine?
  As I can't find which batteries are specifically suitable for my computer.

  (For example: is this a: http://www.amazon.es/Bater%C3%ADa-Toshiba-Satellite-U400-11V-7800mAh/dp/B0051A9Y88/ref=sr_1_cc_2?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1366885340&sr=1-2-catcorr&keywords=satellite+pro+u400?)

  Is there a quick way to check if a battery / charger are compatible?

  Each battery and adapter you get from Toshiba has specific part number. All you have to do is use this same part number and order. You should be able to find on the internet.
  You can also get compatible parts you are ordering by the Toshiba authorized service provider in your country.

  By the way: all U400 models have the same construction and the similar specifications then all the batteries specified for U400 can be used on your U400-160.

• Satellite Pro U400-130 - Conexant and 'Stereo Mix' in question

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro U400-130 (downgraded from Vista to XP) with the Conexant High Definition SmartAudio 221 "audio card" installed.

  Although this seems to support HD audio, I can't find any option to use or activate the "Stereo Mix" option in the Windows console. I tried a few settings to registry and some different drivers, but so far, the option remained absent.

  I know this forum and other comments on the net that Conexant audio cards do not support the stereo mix, but I was wondering if someone could confirm that this is certainly the case for SmartAudio 221?

  Similarly, anyone know of another method to record the sound 'as heard' on the computer? So Far, the options appear to be a) buy an external sound card, or b) connect the plug headphone mini-jack on the mic with a cable jack.

  After using a p3500 old Portege of 8 quite happy with this function (actually pretty basic), it is very disappointing to find that this card cannot support it.

  See you soon,.
  Select this option.

  > I can't find any option to use or activate the "Stereo Mix" option in the Windows mixer
  > I know this forum and other reviews on the net that the Conexant sound cards may not support stereo > Mix, but I was wondering if anyone could confirm this is certainly the case for SmartAudio 221?

  I can confirm this because I have a laptop (NOT from Toshiba one) that was equipped with the Conexant audio chip and the other laptop (Toshiba Satellite a series has) that supports the Realtek audio chip.

  The machine with Realtek audio chip contains stereo mix and the other non-Toshiba unit that supports the audio chip Conexant does not support the stereo mix

  As far as I know the update of the driver won't help you because it looks like a hardware limitation of chip Conexant!

  However, thanks for the info about the Virtual Audio Cable tool.
  I think I'll try it next time

  Hello

  I think it is just a software problem (Boot Manager).
  Try to repair the operating system by using HARD disk recovery;
  Press F8 why portable power.
  Then choose fix my computer, then choose disk HARD recovery.

  If this is not possible, order the disk recovery from here:
  http://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

  Then, you will be able to reinstall the OS using the recovery disk
