  Hello

  Satellite U400-15 is not for the French market it belongs to the series of PSU44E and if you need a U400 with French keyboard layout or French vista then you should take another U400-xxx which belongs to the series of Satellite U400 - 17H or by Satellite U400 PSU44E - 14 p.

  These two laptops Satellite U400 - 17H or by Satellite U400 - 14 p can be bought in France

• Satellite U400-15E: cannot use Bluetooth

  Hey guys

  Newbie here.
  I just bought a new satellite U400-15e.
  I did as follows.

  The switch market and fn + f8.
  Everything is on and without bluetooth installation came.

  All advice is appreciated.

  Off topic, I bought my laptop in March, but when I registered it, it showed that my warranty ends in November? I thought it was a 1 year warranty.

  Help, please

  Hello

  With regard to the question of Bluetooth:
  Are you sure that your laptop U400-15E has been equipped with Bluetooth module to 100%?
  Check the bottom of the camera! If the BT has been installed, then you should see a few labels of BT.

  With regard to the question of the guarantee:
  Usually you've got a standard one year warranty and it s is available on the first day of purchase.
  But you can extend this standard warranty. If you would register the notebook on the Toshiba page then you would get, second year additional warranty.

• Motherboard for Satellite U400-15E work Equium U400-124?

  Hello

  My graphics card died on my U400 - 124 & I said that the motherboard must be replaced.
  I found one for a Toshiba U400-15 and I was wondering if that will enter my chassis.
  It's ok if I have to reformat my hard drive & reinstall windows.

  Here's what he said on that I found.

  A000060020
  Motherboard Toshiba U400 - 15th

  Compatible with A000027670 A000060020 31TE1MB01N0

  I have attached a picture of my model below.

  Any help is really appreciated

  According to the image of the Equium U400-124 belongs to the series of PSU42E

  Satellite U400-15E belongs to the PSU44E, but both series are very similar, and I guess that the motherboard could be compatible... the presentation of the motherboard seems even if from my point of view of a few you should be able to install this card.

• Satellite U400-15E - cannot start new USB HDD

  Hello.

  Recently a bought a WD My Book external with 3TeraByte to use with my Satellite U400-15E. I can use inside Windows 7 Ultimate without problem. But if I try to boot from it (by pressing the F12 key), the BIOS does not even see the drive.

  Is it because Toshiba does not use Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI)? UEFI BIOS can overcome the limitation of 2.19 to in computers today easily, as explained in the following Western Digital document:
  [http://www.wdc.com/wdproducts/library/Flyer/ENG/2579-771501.pdf]

  This would allow me to use my new external drive to store an image Ghost drive HARD internal of my Toshiba for example. I mean 3 TB and more capacity is a reality today. When Toshiba updates their UEFI BIOS support?

  Material used:
  Toshiba Satellite U400-15E (BIOS v5.00 10/26/2010)
  Western Digital My Book Essential 3TeraByte - Firmware v1.014 (USB 3.0 interface)
  MS Windows 7 Ultimate - 32 bit version

  Thank you

  Hello guys here is my sudden probloema!
  A year ago I bought a laptop
  TOSHIBA - Satellite U400
  with s.o. WinVista 32-bit and webcam built-in chicony etc...
  Last year, everything worked properly, but since a few days, the webcam no longer works.
  Whenever I try to open it, a message from the cam of management software that says "Webcam driver open fail, please reboot or the computer room.

  I tried to do all this: aggioronato and downloaded the drivers from toshiba, uninstalled the program and re installed the webcam...! notebook bios set to day...! useless!

  If the cam is not listed in the devices (imaging devices) Manager, this normally means that the hardware is defective. It is possible that there is problem with the cable of the cam. Try to bring back the screen and check if the cam will be recognized again.

• Satellite U400-14 b turns off and now it won't start

  Hello

  just got a new Satellite U400 this week.
  Worked perfectly the first days, and then last night, it just turns off and now it won't start.

  I press the button and the row of lights beside him light up, but nothing happens that I n t even get as much as the Toshiba screen.
  I tried a lot of things. I left it plugged in all night, tried to take the battery and any results now.

  Little led lights on the bottom indicates that it is his stuffy, battery is white not orange when you press they light up only for a fraction of a second.

  The only thing I can compare it is too when a car won t start and you keep turning and turning the key, well in that case, pushing a button, and nothing happens, fans don t whir or anything...

  help please...

  Additional memory (RAM) has been installed? Try to remove a memory Module and try another memory location.

  If bad memory is not the problem, then there is not much else you can do except send it to an ASP for warranty repairs.

• Satellite U400-183 - need Recovery DVD and AHCI drivers

  Hello

  I tried to reinstall Win Vista Home Premium to my Satellite U400-183. I used a DVD OS Win that came with my other laptop to other manufacturing and the key that came with my Toshiba laptop. Everything works beautifully, but in some areas of Windows is still some specific parameters of the manufacturing on the other. Now is it possible to get a DVD of Windows Vista Toshiba?

  Another question is where can I get the AHCI drivers. There is only an exe file on the support site which I can't use during the installation of Windows. There must be some these .sys files, but I can't find them on the Toshiba site, so I had to install Windows in compatibility mode.

  Thanks in advance!

  PS: Sorry for my bad English, I'm from the Germany...

  Hello!

  A new recovery DVDs, you can get your local ASP (authorized service provider).
  Or you order a DVD from Toshiba directly:
  https://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx

  The AHCI drivers or let say Intel Storage Manager, you can download from the Toshiba site as you have already said.
  The .exe file, you must check out to use during the installation, but with the recovery disk you n t need them.
  Please read the readme file in the Storage Manager, there is an example how to extract it. Use the command line what it
  For example: - a - a - PC:------.

  Good bye

• Why the folio pages initially blurry and take a few seconds to render?

  Hello.

  My folio pages all take a moment to return when played on the ipad with the adobe Viewer, i.e. they are blurred for a few seconds then they become crisp when they fully returned. It really kills the feel of my work, which in fact feel cheap. I tried chaning some of files imported in PNG, but it still happens. Is anyway to fix this? In addition, my goal is to turn this into an application, will happen this blur/rendering also when it is output as an application?

  Thanks for your help.

  N ° when the WLAN switch is set on, you must turn on BT using the FN + F8 key combination.
