• Re: Satellite U400 - buttons mute/DVD/play/stop etc do not work

  Just checked that I have the same problem - it's none of my touch buttons work (mute/DVD/play/stop, etc.) and they stay on up - even when I turn off my laptop completely.

  As far as I know that I did nothing else except some windows update, that could have done it? I quite often use these buttons, so the question is rather awkward for me.

  If it is a different matter, I'll start a new thread. See you soon

  Hello

  Eventually MS updates confused something in your system.
  The buttons are controlled by the different applications that are part of the VAP.

  I think that you should remove the PPV of the system and should reinstall it again.

• Satellite U400-10N: charging question

  Yesterday I bought U400 - 10N NB 13, 3 ".
  I have problem of battery charge. I returned to my cell phone seller and change with the same model.
  But I have the same problem of load. Comic strip - returned again my seller and they said that it is loading issue.

  Problem: I plugged the cable eclectric for Vista to new U400-10N finishing system. The battery led is red and battery connect writing problem X bar windows.
  When I connected on the power cable after 1 hour; the laptop is dead. No battery life!

  I called with Toshiba calling center in Istanbul. Nobody knows, nobody heard, nobody speaks.

  Sorry for my English.

  Can you help me?

  Hey Buddy

  Some computer dealers have no experience of my personal experience and from time to time they speak bu * t
  You shouldn't t believe what they said

  I read your post carefully and it would be very interesting to know if you have used and connected the adapter even U400 units.
  A bad AC adapter would be possible according to your message!
  In addition, you should try different adapters to make sure if an adapter is ok.

  If something is wrong with your hardware, then make a call to the nearest local ASP (authorized service provider) and ask for the replacement or the fix.
  Guys should be able to help you...

  Good luck and feedback would be highly appreciated

  The question is...

  I want to upgrade my portable computer system memory 3 GB DDR2 (800 MHz) RAM to 4 GB of RAM DDR3 (1066 MHz), which is compatible or not?

  Respect,
  enteoana

  Hello

  In my opinion, you should follow specification not Intel and Toshiba. S Toshiba of info is based on own tests and facts.
  So, depending on the specifications of Toshiba for the GM45 Chipset it is clearly written:

  Min(on Board) wheel capacity - DDR2 800 MHz 0 MB / 8 GB max
  Type of extension of memory - DDR2 800 MHz 1 GB/2 GB/4 GB
  Type of module - SO-DIMM

  So if Toshiba write about 800 MHz modules, you must use the modules to them and not faster.
  You may be able to use faster too, but they do not work with the maximum speed, but not going down to 800 MHz.

  If you want to use max RAM amount use recommended and tested 2 x 2 Go DDR2-800 (PA3669U-1M2G).
  Indicated as compatible RAM, 4 GB DDR2-800 (PA3670U-1M4G).

• Question about the maximum amount of RAM on Satellite U400-10J

  Hi all!

  2 weeks ago, I bought Satellite U400-10j.
  Now, I want to extend the RAM.

  This chipset is inside my laptop?

  Does he really support only 2 GB of RAM?

  Hello

  I wonder if you have checked the user manual installed which must be preinstalled on the laptop.

  In any case, as far as I know that the memory on U400-10J can be upgraded up to 2 GB of RAM (2 x 1 GB).
  DDR2 667 MHz (PC2-5300) 200 - PIN SODIMM modules are compatible and it seems that the Chipset Mobile Intel GL960 Express was built in.

  Hope I could help you

  Hello

  I've got the same laptop model and updated the BIOS to version 4.70 - Win and everything last week went well.

  I also have Win 7 OS but 32 bits.

  Just a question: have you you uncompress the package correctly before you run the exe file?
  You should do this in a folder created. Moreover in the majority of cases the VAP (value added package) must be installed on your machine.

• How remove "preinstalled" McAfee Internet Security of Satellite U400

  Hi guys

  I just reinstalled Windows XP using the recovery disk if the computer is now as it was when it came from the factory.

  My Satellite U400 native with a free subscription to McAfee Internet Security 30-day. Now that I have reinstalled Windows XP the * McAfee Internet Security Configuration * + icon + has reappeared on my desk.

  My question: * is McAfee Internet Security installed in my notebook? *

  I still have a brochure of McAfee initially provided with the computer that says + Internet Security Suite preinstalled on your Toshiba +. What does that mean? For me + preinstalled means + we + installed by Toshiba before reaching the consumer. However, if McAfee have in fact installed on my laptop, it displays in the list of programs installed under "Add/Remove Programs" in the control panel? I checked that list but McAfee is not there. Is not under 'Programs' in the menu 'start '. So, is it actually on my laptop? Or anything else I have McAfee is little set up the icon on the desktop?

  I need to know if McAfee is actually installed on my laptop (and if it is, how to get rid of her) because the other software I use is not compatible with McAfee - I tried to use both at the same time in the past, but neither worked well.

  Sorry guys, but as you may have noticed, I am not a computer person, so would really appreciate your help.

  Thank you

  Hello

  I guess this will be installed automatically by Microsoft.
  It s called McAfee Security Scan Plus.
  I updated the OS to the window, and this appeared on my laptop as well.
  You can uninstall it if you want, but I wouldn't recommend it because it was such good protection to new malware and spy from the internet.

  But if you want to remove it, then you can find the uninstall exe in all programs-> McAfee Security Scan Plus-> uninstall

• Update the BIOS for Satellite U400-10O required

  Hello world

  I have a SATELLITE U400-10 oC (PSU40E-00R00EG3). It is an old product, but once I always love use regularly.

  Recently, I bought a battery for this device upgrade. Unfortunately, it does not recognize the laptop. The work of the battery, but I don't you all information about the charge level. I tried various tricks 'reset' (removing ACPI Microsoft in the list of the drivers installed, running down the battery completely etc..).

  I think the BIOS might be exceeded and I'd like to update. Unfortunately, the Web of Toshiba site does not list updates for him more. Still, someone has access to updates the BIOS for this?

  The BIOS is a Phoenix currently to version 4.70.

  Hello

  N my BIOS of opinion has nothing to do with it. Battery can be replaced, and if you use compatible batteries they should be recognized correctly. Here is the list of all compatible batteries:
  PA3534U-1BAS/BRS
  1BAS/PA3536U-1BRS
  PA3634U-1BAS/BRS
  PA3635U-1BAM/BRM

  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!
  the strange thing... Although going into Device Manager... the webcam is not there...! But if the launch seems open just then check what caz... Caveat!

  Gan you help me?

  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 - failed to create the recovery disk - bad DVD player?

  Hi all

  I have a 13 inch Satellite U400.
  Due to problems with my Softkeys, lighting and hibernation status (any help on thos would also be useful) I want to create a recovery DVDs with the Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator.

  The thing is: it starts when I have a CD in the DVD drive, but as soon as I put a DVD in (what is needed), it gives me an errormessage that said something like 'another application is using this drive or no disc recording where found in the laptop. 0D00E4-F0-00000000 error code).

  My DVD player does not work properly, I can play movies and the drivers and the status is ok too.
  I noticed, that error code changes, but I don't know how to get the recovery disk creator will.

  What can I do? Change something in the registry?
  I don't know what happened on my laptop, I bought a few months ago - new. I guess that, reset everything would bring my softkeys, lighting and hibernation status back.

  So, if someone nows how to work at least one of the problems, please give me advice.

  Thanks in advance,

  Hello

  Did you create virtual CD/DVD drives with special software? If so, remove the software completely. In addition, if you have installed burning, programs, you should check if they will be started when Windows starts and if so, disable the beginning upward. So go to start > run > msconfig > start. Here, you can disable the start of burning software (for example Nero, CD Burner XP, etc.).

  And what DVD are you using for burning? I have good experiences with DVD - R Verbatim and TDK discs. These are high-quality discs and you should try it too!

  Last but not least, you need to remove the upper and lower registry filters. It is always advisable to the problems of the CD/DVD drive:
  (1) run Regedit (start-> Run-> Regedit)
  2) go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
  (3) in the right pane, delete the "UpperFilters" key and delete the key "LowerFilters".
  (4) restart.

  Depending on your problem with the keys to enlightenment that you should try to reinstall the Toshiba value added Package. This determines the buttons of enlightenment, FN keys and other special functions on your laptop. I had a similar problem with my Qosmio F50 illumination buttons and I posted something on this subject in the Qosmio forum that you should try it too!

• Satellite U400-15B hangs on the Internet and make multimedia keys touch

  Hi all

  Had two problems with my U400-15B which I hope to solve.

  (1) the first problem is that I noticed that my internet sometimes seems to weigh on Internet Explorer, when using the Web site who have a couple of images e.t.c.
  It freezes but the rest of the laptop works very well - I want to say you can go to the start menu and other programs very well. However, if you open Microsoft Word, while this is the case, it will take a little more time to load than normal upward. Anyone know what this might be or how I can fix this problem?

  I use Vista Home Premium 32-bit and the laptop has 4 GB of RAM / thus, Intel Centrino 2 P7350 - is powerful enough.

  (2) the second problem is that when I press the 'sound' button, the white lights and the white bar above the touchpad become informed. When I press on it again once the lights come back but he is not mute. Only when the laptop is put in standby mode and then woke up once again, the key work properly. All the others work fine. Does anyone know what is the cause?

  I exchanged this laptop 3 times now and each of them did question (2), but surely this isn't normal.

  Any help or advice to address these problems are very much appreciated.

  Thank you

  (1) have you tested a different internet browser? For example, Firefox.
  I use Firefox for years and never had any problems with it. I like Firefox over Internet Explorer, it s faster and you will get a lot of modules useful for her ScrapBook.

  (2) have tried to update the BIOS? Look on the Toshiba site to find a newer version:

  I have a Satellite U400 too and it works without problems.

  Hello

  The installations instructions document is not available at this time. You can check the order of facilities for another model of laptop preinstalled Vista. It should be similar on all laptops preinstalled Vista.

  Value added contains several tools and I think is the tool you need for media buttons. Just install VAP and I hope it works.
