  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:

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

• Satellite Pro P100 - screen and sound problems after upgrade to Windows 7

  Hi all

  I got my Satellite Pro P100 (model number is PSPAEE-00C006EN and the second digit of the serial number is '7') upgraded from Vista to Windows 7, and since then, some bugs seem to have had place - can someone help me on the following:

  -L' screen DIMS increments, irrespective of the fact that I have saved my power settings to stay on FULL (battery or sector)

  -No sound. Once or twice, the sound card worked and settings to say this works correctly (and you can see the movement of the graphic equalizer).
  In terms of PC knowledge, I would be 5/10 (so not a dummy, but certainly not a pro! and we tried a lot of the more obvious things)

  Thank you all

  Hello

  1.) if the screen dim option doesn't properly work, I recommend you to reinstall Toshiba Value added Package. This package controls these functions, the keys FN and others. Visit the Toshiba page for an update!

  2.) did you check if the sound is muted if the equalizer work? In addition you can also try to update the audio driver might it work ;)

• Satellite Pro U400 starts - power problem?

  Hey,.

  my liquid U400 down without any reason and doesn't start anymore.
  My first idea was damage from CPU, but even if the laptop is taken to power the power led does not illuminate.

  (1) make U400 notebook work normally when the battery is removed, but pluged in power? Because if not maybe only the battery is broken.
  (2) any other ideas? :)

  Guarantee is more than 1 months :(

  Answer to your question is YES. You can remove the battery and use your laptop with AC power only. In most PC stores showing the rooms are placed laptop without battery. Probably the batteries have been stolen in the past.
  Anyway, they can run with AC power only.

  When you connect the laptop to the power plug and the power light is not on I assume that there is a problem of electronic power supply.
  Contact the nearest authorized maintainer and ask for help.

• Satellite Pro U400 - stop and then it starts automatically

  Hello
  I have a new (arrived today... I just installed the OS-_-"') Toshiba Satellite U400 running on Vista Business and he refuses to close down, it will turn off, but a few seconds later automatically restarts.

  I tried to reinstall vista, updated the BIOS, but do not change the problem...

  Anyone have any ideas?

  THX & sorry for my English = D

  EDIT: Ok, the problem only persists when the LAN cable is attached.

  Hello

  > the problem only when the LAN cable is attached.
  If that's the case I recommend you to reinstall the LAN driver. You can download the latest version on the Toshiba site.

  If you already have a BIOS update and a new installation of Windows. Have you used the Toshiba Recovery disk?

  If so, I think in the worst case there s a hardware problem :(

• 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.

• Can Satellite Pro U400-13I - I reinstall the CD/DVD creation software?

  Hello

  Can someone help me with my problem.
  I have a Satellite Pro U400-13I and use XP he. As I experienced some problems with the creation of CD, I decided to uninstall and reinstall.
  However, I am unable to find the program to install only the software above without having to run the XP DVD recovery (which will format the entire HARD drive), I have a lot of data and some third party software that I do not want to miss, so is unable to format the drive HARD rightaway.

  Would appreciate a solution

  Thanks in advance
  SJ

  What program you mean exactly for creating CD/DVD?

  If you mean the Toshiba disk creator I think it can t be downloaded. I checked from Toshiba Web site but I can't find it.
  But you can use another program to create CD/DVD, for example Nero or CD Burner XP (freeware).

  I hope I could help a bit.

• Satellite Pro U400-247 - noise static when the AC adapter is plugged

  Hello

  I got by Satellite Pro U400-247 and you have a problem with the sound.

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

  Does anyone have a solution for this problem?

  Thank you
  Marcus

  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.

• 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.

  I try to do the recovery only by pressing f8 without answering.

  How can I recover my laptop to its state of origin as drive HARD recovery again in d:

  Hello

  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:

• Satellite Pro U400-13 a - starting problems

  I have a Satellite Pro U400 13A running Windows XP Pro and have startup problems.

  The computer was working well until that last Wednesday when I modified the settings of advanced management power in how he reacted to the closing of the lid [hibernate] or pressing the power [on hold] button. Then, I closed the lid that I had to leave in a hurry.

  About 2 hours later, I opened the lid to take what I was doing and to a complete stop, but I got a partial summary leading to a bluescreen with the logo "XP" just to the right of Center and no home screen or directly in the Windows desktop as expected. Then, the computer does nothing.

  Pressing ALT + DEL shows that both operations are underway - "Windows logon" and "Connection", but the selection does nothing.
  I left the computer up to 6 hours, in the hope that it was a lengthy process that prevented it go further but still the same blue screen rest.

  I forced a shutdown by pressing the power and then restarted in the start menu [Safe Mode etc.].
  According to the boot option I then select [I tried all the] bothers me on the same position that I started with - blue screen with "XP" logo.

  I don't have a recovery disk, nor do the recovery option of disk in the advanced boot menu. I am at a loss.
  I sent the problem to technical support Toshiba but no response.

  What are my options?

  Thank you

  > I don't have a recovery disk, nor do the recovery option of disk in the advanced boot menu. I am at a loss. I sent the problem to technical support Toshiba but no response.

  Seems you have to reinstall new OS.
  If you don t have disks or functional HARD drive recovery option, then I would recommend ordering the disc from here:

• 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.

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

  File: \Boot\BCD

  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:

• 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
  -A

  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.

• 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 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.
