• Satellite U400-119 integrated webcam malfunction

  Hello everyone, hope you can help me with this problem.

  I have a * Toshiba Satellite U400-119 * with built-in webcam which worked GREAT until one day she decided to give me a black screen everytime I turned on it. It's all quite normal, but instead of me show ME on cam window when I'm in front of it, it is all black. However, when I take a snapshot with the camera it gives me a picture with me on this subject with all the background as it works perfectly well. However, in mode Webcam live he keeps gives me a black screen.

  I don't think that there is nothing wrong with the lens if not that the instant test not would not have worked. I should also mention that I tried to record a video with her and it is for me the noise but the screen remains black too...

  Put except that I tried to update the version of webcam, but it seems that I already have the latest version (UVC 1.7.175.0123).

  I'm not very computer literate, but I'd appreciate it if you could try and help with simple terms ;)

  Thank you for your time.

• Satellite U400 - driver Open Webcam fail

  If I try to use the webcam, I get the message: «Webcam driver open fail...» »

  There are several threads about this on this forum and other boards of Directors through Google, not only related to this model, well than many other Toshibas. Is there a fix of Toshiba? As the problem seems so widespread there should be.

  I use XP Pro. I've updated the BIOS and the software of the webcam without solving the problem.

  Thanks in advance.

  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 - a newer driver for microphone

  Please help me, I tried everything on my Satellite U400 to fix the microphone, but I won't be able to fix because the drivers are not good and they are OLD 2009
  I need new drivers to fix my micro Satellite U400, please where can I find more recent drivers then from the year 2009?

  Thank you.

  Hey Scooby,

  Satellite U400 is old model of laptop and I don t think there are driver updates published. I think that it s everything is ok with the old sound driver that otherwise Toshiba would release an update or something.

  The microphone is a part of webcam, so you need to update the driver for the webcam also. Take a look at the Toshiba page for the new driver of the webcam.

  I checked a little the Toshiba page and Satellite C650 has Conexant audio chip too. Newer drivers are available for this model of laptop and normally the drivers should work on your model too. It's worth a try ;)

• Satellite U400-112 - WoW problems and the image is not good

  Hello!

  My laptop is Satellite U400-112 and matching video Intel X 3100.

  When I play in openGL, 3D graphics on minimum and the image quality are not good. The same situation with Direct3D even worse. I have a guess - the game not installed, I copied the folder with the game on another computer, maybe I need to reinstall? I installed the latest drivers for the video of the official website of Intel.

  Maybe someone have the same problem and can help me to solve it.

  Hello

  This only happens on the world of Warcraft or in other games too?

  I'm a bit confused because you have set the minimum graphics and then you wrote that the photo isn't good in my opinion that's normal as the photo isn't good, if you play on minimum graphics settings.
  Maybe you can post a screenshot screen or something else.

  You also need to update DirectX version on your laptop that you can find on the Microsoft Web site.

• No disc with the drivers by a Satellite U400 - 10L

  Hello

  Today I bought new Toshiba Satellite u400 - 10 laptop with no included operating system, so I installed windows XP successfully, but I faced a problem, such as a shortage of a pilot, because there is no additional disk in the box (only for laptop, cabel DC and some TEXTBOOKS). As soon as I opened my device manager, I've seen a lot of hardware is not recognized by my laptop: access quick, webcam, Sound card, video card, adapter wireless network, 6 keys and so on.

  Should there be additional driver disk when I bought my laptop, or where I can get all these drivers so my laptop could work properly.

• Toshiba Satellite U400-14Z upgrade to a faster processor - which is the most rapid possible?

  Hello.

  I want to upgrade an old Toshiba Satellite U400-14Z (http://www.toshiba.eu/discontinued-p...lite-u400-14z/) a little by changing the CPU. Initially there is a processor Intel Core 2 Duo P8400 with FSB to 1066 MHz but I thought to put there P9700 or P9500. It seems that they are similar, specification is exactly, except the speed and the amount of memory cache level 2. The question is: would this work?
  I also found CPU called T9900, which is the fastest of the family. However, T-line requires more power than the line P, 25W to 35W in comparison. Is it possible that she would work in this phone?
  Maybe there's even some CPU more Rapids that would fit. Y at - it all? I'm looking for the maximum possible speed.
  Thank you for the answers.

  Hello.

  Maybe there's even some CPU more Rapids that would fit. Y at - it all? I'm looking for the maximum possible speed.

  I found Intel® Core 2 Extreme Processor QX9300 who might be compatible. It has 4 cores and a thermal power of 45W design, compared to P8400 of TDP 25W. I suspect that the cooling of this laptop is insufficient to be able to disperse the money.

• 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.

  Hello

  On the European driver Toshiba page, you will find a new v-Fingerprint Software 7.10.1.2
  Remove your old software from the system. Then clean the operating system using the CCleaner (it of free). Reboot several times, and then install the new fingerprint software downloaded.
