Satellite U940 - 12 c: Windows 8 license code?

Hello.

I own a Toshiba Satellite U940 - 12 c. Due to a sequence of horrific circumstances, I'm done with a laptop without Windows 8 and without access to the recovery partition. If there is no idea of how to make to access these data recovery, please tell me.

But the question is: How can I get my copy of Notepad of Windows 8 license code? Is it possible?

Thank you and goodbye.

If you can access the recovery partition on ordinary road, there is no other way to do and saved on your laptop recovery image is useless. It is a pity that you n t have created a recovery media that could be used for a clean install of Win8.

Maybe you don't believe this, but the license key is also useless and cannot be used for a clean install of Windows. This code is part of the original pre-installed version you got with your laptop.

Best option for you is to order the original recovery disk and use it for Win8 installed. You can order it on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

If you have any other questions you are welcome.

  • Satellite U940 Windows 10 update, very slow start to the top

    Hello

    It looks after upgrade to win10, the SSD is not used to quickly boot up the laptop.
    How can this problem be solved?

    In tools, defragment disc, it shows all of my partitions as SSD drive so I can't defragment.
    Why are they displayed as SSD? I think that the basic motivation is a 500 gb HHD and only a 32 GB SSD is included.

    Also in the management of the computer disk SSD drive shows only 11.22 GB of capacity and is not used (all 11.22 GB free)

    Help, please. I want to get the quick start of the win8.1 and at the same time be able to defragment my HARD drive.

  • Windows 10 not supported for Satellite U940

    I have a U940 satellite. I've had it for over 3 years and I like it.
    Last weekend I went to the update free for WIndows 10 and updated level to her with my Windows 8.1.

    It works, but now I've discovered (maybe I should have read) that the Satellite U940 is NOT a device supported for Windows 10.

    Why is this?

    I plan to go back to 8.1, but for now the 10 Windows works for me.

    What will that mean for me long term and which leave people?

    Thank you very much!

    As you probably know that it is not possible to provide full support for all models of laptops. On some point of Toshiba, and other manufacturers must create a furrow, and decide which models will be more sustained.

  • I have a valid license for Windows XP key code, so why the system tells me it is not currently active or real?

    Windows has no

    I had to spend my PC this morning. Moving it, I decided to implement a new network card. When I reconnected it all the cables, I plugged my USB mouse on another USB port where it had been plugged in before. The computer is more than 7 years old and I've never had a problem with the front Windows Validation. I have a valid license for Windows XP key code, so why the system tells me it is not currently active or real?

    When Windows checks to see if you have moved your copy of Windows to "another computer", among other things, that his focus on the identification of several strands of material in the computer to see if they are different than when Windows was first installed.  I do not remember the list for now, but I remember that the network card is one of the pieces - and IIRC it is 'valuable' higher than others to reach the conclusion.

    You probably other elements has changed over the past seven years and now Windows has decided to have a "new" computer  Assuming that you haven't changed the motherboard - if you had, you would have had this issue at the time wherever you did--your installation is still legal.  Reactivate using your original license key. It should work online, but you will need to call the number that appears in the error message from re - validate.

  • Satellite U940 - SSD drive shows only 11.22 GB

    Hello

    I had a new Satellite U940 - B484 Ultrabook.
    The first thing I did was finishing the wizard, then I created the recovery media (using external DVD drive) on three discs 4.7 GB DVD

    We have Windows 8 Pro license, so my friend formatted the system and installed new Windows 8 Pro, it seems Miss upward with the pilots decided to return to the status of the plant to find and download the appropriate device drivers.

    Even though we got the recovery ended, we have two questions:
    Major problem: SSD drive shows the only 11.22 GB capacity!
    Minor cause: a device in Device Manager does not work properly!

    There is no logical explanation for the SSD size down from 32 GB to 11FR?

    Think only entered in my mind was the ability to have the 2x16GB and the RAID (for some reason any) changed from RAID 0, RAID 1. But even if that's true, where Devil can I change to go to?

    > Is there any logical explanation for SSD size down from 32 GB to 11FR?

    You have probably installed Win 8 on the SSD drive and this is the reason why you have only 11 GB of free space.
    The laptop seems to be equipped with a 500 GB HARD drive and a 32 GB SSD.

    I recommend you to check the available on the SSD drive partition table.
    You can check in the Disk Management to win 8

  • Satellite U940 - stuttering & audio dropouts using NI Traktor Pro

    Hello

    I am DJ & artist and recently bought a toshiba for sets dj ultrabook parade and live sets with traktor pro.
    I also do computer repairs so I know my way around the pc...

    Now, at the beginning I had an occasional stuttering or interruption, which I blamed on the system settings, so I made a few tweaks here and there, disabled some stuf, uninstalled some bloatware...
    Everything seemed ok.

    But my last show was a nightmare, suddenly all hell broke loose! Stutters major interruptions and I had to put in a cd backup which is pretty stupid when live...

    Now, before everyone says its software trakor or a material that is causing the problem... No, this is not!
    A lot of testing already before posting here

    This is a finding of latencymon:

    My last chance, if I don't find the sollution is format all and put on clean windows 7 without all the stuff of toshiba which could cause this...

    You mentioned the Wdf01000.sys (Kernel Mode Driver Framework) files in your message.
    As much as I know, that it is a hardware driver internal Microsoft which is placed in
    C: the folder \Windows \System32 \drivers.
    The driver gives you access to the computer or ancillary equipment.

    The reason why this file appear as a troublemaker can be connected to external devices connected to the USB ports as external mouse or other device.

    To be honest, I wouldn't recommend disable or delete this file because it s a clean Windows driver and may be important to keep the system working properly.

    In your case I recommend you check the connected 3rd party devices and also to test the combination of Traktor and Sat with connected U940 adapter mains or battery only. Also test it with WLAN enabled.

    Have you installed original recovery image that you created on the USB key?

    Please try to install it again. Usually after installation of the own image of recovery your laptop should boot correctly.

    By the way: have you noticed this problem right after the installation, or later after some updates to install.

  • Satellite U940 PSU6VA - Dual boot with Ubuntu based distributions

    _ * My specifications: * _
    * Model: * Toshiba Ultrabook (Satellite PSU6VA - 00S 002 U940)
    * Operating system: * Windows 8.1 x 64 (upgrade of Windows 8 x 64)

    I would like to set up my computer to dual boot with Windows 8.1 (x 64) and Zorin OS 9.1 (64-bit).

    ZORIN OS is a derivative of Ubuntu which maintains a binary compatibility with Ubuntu i.e. Ubuntu and Zorin use the same drivers and can run the same applications. John Damascene is more or less just Ubuntu with a different desktop environment and some additional preinstalled applications.

    So far, I know that I need to disable the QuickStart Windows 8.1. What I have to do something else (for example disable Secure Boot, CSM, etc.)?

    In addition, my Ultrabook comes with 2 hard drives: 500 GB HARD drive and a 30 GB SSD. Windows uses the HARD disk for storage and for implementing SSD caching, through technology Intel Rapid Storage Technology. Is it possible to set up John of Damascus to do so (preferably without disabling caching on Windows)?

    NOTE: I prefer to do things using graphical interfaces, rather than the CLI. I don't mind given CLI instructions; also just showed me the GUI equivalents if possible. I use the CLI if there is no alternative.

    Hello

    See my responses / comments among your questions (I took part of your message and inserted here):

    So far, I know that I need to disable the QuickStart Windows 8.1. What I have to do something else (for example disable Secure Boot, CSM, etc.)?

    Answer: If you want to dual-boot, do NOT select WSC as preventing Windows to start.
    You shouldn't have to disable startup secure either, but I can't promise that. I think that Ubuntu 14 has support for secure boot.

    In addition, my Ultrabook comes with 2 hard drives: 500 GB HARD drive and a 30 GB SSD. Windows uses the HARD disk for storage and for implementing SSD caching, through technology Intel Rapid Storage Technology. Is it possible to set up John of Damascus to do so (preferably without disabling caching on Windows)?

    Answer: No, I don't think that there is a way to use the SSD in Zorin without making it unusable for Windows.
    Suggestion - let it be.

    The problem is that the touchpad is not working and the fn are false (fn f2 key suspend the computer instead of the brightness control).

    I tried to install linux different sistem (Mint cinnamon 15, 13.04 ubuntu, ubuntu 12.04.3) but they still have the same problem, even in the live cd.

    * PS.* sorry for my bad English. Is it normal that my laptop seems overheated and my battery life seems to be reduced when I use Linux?

    Hello

    Yes, you're right!
    In the direct (stable mode without having to install), the touchpad does not work.

    However, once installed, it will work.

    In regards to shortcut keys, yes they are mapped correctly.
    They are treated to the old-fashioned way (former Toshiba models had the mapping used by Linux on this model).
    If you want help, file a bug report on bugs to Ubuntu system.

    You can always change the brightness by using the GUI (Control Panel > brightness & Lock).

    Fun with Ubuntu on your device!

  • Satellite U940 - download Health Monitor

    Recently, I managed to updated the integrity monitor (which paradoxically the Heath monitor recommended).

    An error indicated there was "an older version installed", and I was advised to remove it all first. I did, doesn't have any path to be automatically informed of pilot and other improvements, including the health monitor.

    It seems that the health monitor has not saved the download file - it is not in the downloads. He recorded other places? He did not me, invites so the location is hardcoded, wherever she is.

    I only do that because a previous update of the bluff Health Monitor driver my touchpad driver.

    OK... you'd think I'd be able to download the new drivers manually, right? Alas not. My part number doesn't seem to be acceptable for the selector of downloads on the selector to THE Toshiba window, and even there is no model of U above U500 in the drop-down list of templates.

    So much trouble here!

    Can anyone suggest how I might have the correct setup file of Health Monitor for my Satellite U940?

    Thank you

    Can you please post full model name and the part number of your laptop?

  • A few questions after the downgrade of Win 7 on Satellite U940 - 11L

    Hello

    friend of mine bought the Toshiba Satellite U940 - 11L which had Windows 8 on it, due to some reasons that she wanted to have Windows 7 installed on it, which was pretty easy.

    Trouble came with the installation of the Symantec touchpad, after installing the drivers, it worked for about 10-15 minutes but then it stopped working.

    Tried to uninstall and install again but no luck, found a few discussions where it was suggested to remove all the devices, remove the battery and the power cord.

    Press the power button for 15 seconds and then power back on but still not lucky (I wasn't in the restoration of the default settings of the Bios I did not any change it outside disabling secure boot and replacing UEFI CSM that was needed to run win 7 on it).

    Tried about 4 different sources when it comes to the drivers but still does not work. I checked the Device Manager Dev but see no conflict, and it shows that the unit works fine but the problem persists. Please note that the drivers were specific to windows 7.

    Please if you have any suggestions we would greatly appriciate it.

    On another note, I'm not able to install the bluetooth it (HW ID shows as ACPI\TOS6205), I tried to install it several times but no luck because it always shows as unknown device in the dev Manager. The driver that I use is Bluetooth Filter Driver Package as info.

    Also, the computer is slower than it was with Windows 8, I suspect the reason for this is the fact that the installation of win 7 I accidentally erased part of the hybrid drive SSD (the size was 11.2 GB if I remember correctly, yes silly me...). I wasn't looking for a while on the net to see if there is a way to fix it but no luck so far.

    Thank you very much for your time and your suggestions!

    With regard to the question of the touchpad.
    To my knowledge, the touchpad should work even if the Synaptics touchpad driver has not been installed. Windows system contains own driver that control the touchpad and provide standard settings. Of course after installing the Synapatics driver, you should get a few more options and features more touchpad.

    I recommend you to download the driver for the touchpad from Synaptics driver page and install it again: http://www.synaptics.com/resources/drivers

    With regard to the problem of BT.
    The laptop supports WLan Intel (Intel Wireless-N 2230) card that supports BT connectivity. Bt driver filter pack is ONLY necessary if you laptop would use an Atheros WLan card or Realtek WLan card. For the Intel WLan modules such package of filter is NOT necessary. To get BT to work, you must install the battery Toshiba BT!
