• This external modem will work with Satellite L500-1XL, running Windows 7

  Hello

  When in Spain, I need to use the dialing up to the internet through Telefónica.
  I guess that the L500-1XL is not an internal modem?

  This external modem will work with the L500-1XL running Windows 7?

  Thank you very much in advance for your help.

  Hello

  You re right Satellite L500 doesn t have an internal modem, so you need an external.

  I think you can buy every modem that is compatible with Vista. Alternative ask your favorite computer dealer or authorized service provider

• Windows XP starts problems with Satellite M30

  My M30 has operated for two years until a few days ago when he suddenly would ' t restart after running a Microsoft security update. He gave me different boot in safe mode options, normally, etc., but none of them work.

  I was told that if I use my recovery DVDs. It will clean my drive hard and with him all my files. I understand that my Windows XP software is on this DVD - I certainly don't have a disk full. It is true that I will not have the opportunity to try to repair or to cure the problem and if so will it buy an OEM Windows XP and install it separately? Or should I do something else entirely?

  Can anyone give me any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  Tried set your windows to an earlier point of your 'system-recovery-point' that appears with the options-> boot in safe mode - boot in safe mode with network - etc.etc...

  It this fails, then you need to recover your entire system.

  In the first, true it s: you can't heal or repair your system with the recovery dvd, you can just reinstall your entire system and you have an operating system as the first day after you bought this machine.

  So, your only choice will be to reinstall your system to correct it, and to avoid the installation of EACH update to Microsoft because I had a lot of problems with some updates that causes my machine to do things like non-boot or some software crashes. It s better to stay informed about updates and install them just after you verified that the isn´t of update affecting your system stability or performance.

  To back up your files and recover your system, that you have to do following things:

  You said that your system is not initialized, but you need your files.
  Just take a UBCD4Win (http://www.ubcd4win.com/) from the Internet and initialize with this CD. You will have access to your files with this WindowsPE on CD and you will be able to back up your data on a USB drive or burn your stuff on the CD.
  Now, you need to start the recovery cd and let the automatic installation script do the rest. It will delete your entire hard drive and reinstall the system. After that, you can put the data saved to your hard drive.

  I hope that I might be able to help you. If you have any other questions just ask.

• Problem with satellite Pro L300 Ethernet controller

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro L300 (PSLB9A - 02L 001). Have'nt after being on the dial for the year last I was wireless (it worked well before that) but am now back on broadband but I don't seem to have any wireless.
  Checked the Device Manager and there is a yellow exclamation next to the ethernet controller and it seems there is no pilot, but apart from that, there is no further details. I tried to update the driver but it cannot find the driver on my computer and it will not search the Internet for this.

  I tried, but none of the drivers I downloaded seems to work...
  At the back of the computer laptop is a sticker - PA3613U-1MPC, I think it's the wifi card that is missing the driver but I can't find a driver for it for the life of me...

  Any help would be wonderful.
  Daryl in New Zealand

  You are right. This part number is WLAN Card. I put t know what operating system you use but for download driver Atheros http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/?page=downloads WLAN

  I hope this will help.

  What is now with LAN driver? Do you need it too?
  In any case, visit the Toshiba support page under http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/download and there you should find good LAN driver for your model of laptop.

• Problem with Satellite Pro 4200 series USB (4270)

  Hello

  I'm having a problem with my usb port, it doesn't seem to work properly. I did an update of the Bios, which solves nothing. I changed the drivers (Windows 2000 Professional service pack 4) which did nothing either. Plug-and-play does not activate even when I plug something into the usb port. At first I thought that maybe the USB has been damaged, but when I plug my webcam, it lights up briefly, and since it is powered from the usb, I hope this means that the usb port still works. I tried to plug in scanner m, my printer and my camera, with all the different drivers, with which they came. Nothing works. Windows 2000 displays not all conflicts with all the drivers. I've also disabled in BIOS, all other ports (LPT1 COM1 COM2) using the IRQ11. What could be a solution to this problem?

  Hello

  Well, as far as know that the operating system is unable to recognize the devices if the external USB device needs more power than the USB port provides. In this case, the USB devices must have an external power supply.
  In addition, try to remove the USB port on the Device Manager and restart the operating system.
  After the restart of the operating system should recognize the USB ports. Maybe this procedure solves the strange USB problem.

  Please let me know if it works.

  Good bye

• Satellite Pro L750 running Windows 8 pro - Bluetooth does not work

  Hi all

  Has anyone got the Toshiba Bluetooth successfully integrated to work with Windows 8 Pro? I got the Bluetooth RFBUS error (10) and it did not work.

  Help please.

  Would it be possible that you have not installed the BT correctly?
  Because you are using Win Pro 8, I guess you did a clean install of your laptop.

  In this case this Toshiba How To should help you get the BT works under Win 8

• Display problem on Satellite Pro M40

  When I turn on my laptop, the screen stays dark.
  I have hooked up to an external monitor and you can get a signal that allows me to connect. Once logged into windows xp the laptop screen rises suddenly in life.

  Tried using the Fn + F5 on market, but it does not work.
  Do check the BIOS and settings in power windows and can see nothing obvious.
  Put the laptop to dual screen laptop and CRT, but when I reboot, all I get is a signal through the external display (until I log in to windows), then the screen of the laptop begin to operate.
  No changes to the settings or installed any new software for this development.
  Tried to restore Windows to a checkpoint system well before it started, but not joy.

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  Have you changed the display of the external monitor to a default monitor?

  In this case the display of laptops will not work until the OS is responsible.
  Well, please check in the properties of the graphics card if the internal display of laptops is set as a default view!

  If that doesn't help I would recommend checking if it of possible to start Notepad in safe mode and if the books display can be activated.
  If all the settings of this change, then the installation of the new system would be desirable.

  Good luck

• Satellite Pro L750 running Windows 8 pro - error STOP devices & Printers.

  Hi all

  Now I get them shut UP with the yellow exclamation mark under the option devices and printers. This could be the cause? There was no error in the Device Manager.

  What do you mean by shut UP?
  You can add more details on this device: for example device ID (ID DEV) and the ID of the seller (FRI ID)?
  This would allow to know which device it could be

• Problem with Officejet Pro 8600 Premium, Windows 7 professional scanning

  When you are scanning an 8.5 x 11 page and save as a PDF on my computer, the entire page is not displayed.  Is there a setting that I jumped when setting up?  This is my first time on this printer...

  Thanks for the reply.  I've actually turned on Windows Firewall, turn off the first, then and now it seems good scan to PDF.  I really need to be able to scan in PDF, not only in JPEG format.  Scanner seems to work fine now, maybe it was just a quirk yesterday...

• Satellite Pro M40: screen remains dark until Windows has fully loaded

  Hello to all here.
  I have a problem with my laptop. My laptop is a Satellite Pro M40.

  When I turn on my laptop, I found the backlight won't come... the screen will stay dark until it has fully loaded into Windows. I've checked all my food, and there all fine options. Even if I can get the Bios screen its impossible to read the txt because without backlight. I tried to hold the Fn & F7... joy of Noy.

  Someone at - it ideas?

  Richard

  Hello Richard

  I didn't see anything like that before and I'm a bit confused why you can't see the BIOS settings, but running the OS. Use of the FN + F7 key combination won't help because this option only works on Windows and not on the level of the BACK.

  If possible try to plug the external monitor and test again. In any case I put t think you can fix it yourself. Try please contact Toshiba authorized partner in your country. Explain the situation and see what they say.

  If you discover that something please let us know. It will be really interesting to know why this happen.

• Satellite Pro M40, failure of the hard drive - the new disk restore disk?

  Hello

  My Satellite Pro M40 hard drive died and I want to install a new drive. Unfortunately, my old drive is 60Gig and the Web of Toshiba parts site has only 40 GB or 80 gig drives.

  I have problems with the recovery disk if the hard drive is not exactly the same thing?

  Your advice would be appreciated.

  C

  No, he should t be any problem with the Toshiba Recovery CD.

  On the recovery CD, you'll find a Windows OS, Toshiba drivers and utilities and software further.
  These entire applications are packed into image files.

  You should only be sure that the HARD drive is compatible with your laptop and it will be recognized in the BIOS.
  Then simply to boot from the recovery and installation CD must start.

• Need advice on the Satellite Pro M40

  I wonder if someone could advise me. We just bought 8 smart tips for our school with these I ordered 8 portable computers SatProM40. When I ordered them I checked the spec as follows

  Toshiba SatProM40 - Celeron M360 1.4 GHz - RAM 256 MB - HD 40 GB-CD RW/DVD-ROM combo - Mdm - Lan EN - FAST EN - Win XP Pro - 15.4 "TFT.

  I checked before I ordered that the RAM was 256 because I had heard that it is the minimum recommended to switch to XP.

  Laptops take almost 5 minutes to turn on and everything takes an age to work it's really frustrating and they are totally useless for our school because the entire lesson is included with get the computers to run anything.

  I checked the system information and found laptops were running of 192 MB RAM and rang the provider. I was told that they used 64 MB for the graphics card and that's why they had provided a RAM of 256 MB computer.

  My question to someone who can help:-c' is a normal practice. If I had known this I would have ordered a laptop computer with more RAM to compensate.

  He would welcome any advice that would help us get our children working on their new computers. Thank you.

  Hi Lisa

  In my view, Satellite Pro M40 is nice unit for school work, but I agree with you really is 256 MB minimum RAM and I recommend you buy more 256 MB or 512 MB, depending on your budget.

  The compatible RAM modules are:
  PC2700 256 MB (PA3311U - 2M 25)
  PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 2M 51)

  Problem is that this device uses shared memory and that means that RAM will be used also for graphic designers. If there is someone who has a good knowledge of PC that they check all running processes. Many of them are unnecessary and can be disabled. I also noticed that preinstalled Antivir asks (Norton) slow OS quickly. If all units are not connected to the internet I recommend you to remove it.
  By the way: there are many applications of good antivir which works well and don't slow down the operating system currently running.

  Good luck!

• Satellite Pro A210 PSAFHE - Windows 7 - crashes after the sleep/hibernation

  I have a PSAFHE Satellite Pro A210 running dual boot Windows XP/7
  With the help of Windows 7 - 32 or 64 - system always crashes after sleep/hibernate mode.
  This never happens with XP that sleeps and hibernates OK...
  There is no driver for this laptop on site http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU
  I like system 7 and use it on my other computers but without sleep/hibernate, I go back to XP.

  Hello

  > There is no driver for this laptop on site http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU

  Sorry, mate, but you're wrong.
  All drivers for Win 7 for Satellite Pro A210 are available on the European driver of Toshiba page that I recommend you check out once again

  Given that this question does not appear using Win XP, I can say with certainty that this has nothing to do with the material, but it s a software related issue
  I recommend updating the graphics card driver

  In addition, there is a new BIOS for Satellite Pro A210 PSAFHE it s v2.0
  Check if you are using the latest version

• Satellite Pro M40 - touchpad and click left tips repair

  Hello

  I have a problem with the left click of my Satellite Pro M40 (PSM46E). He lost the 'click '.
  Someone has some tips to take the top off to repair? What screws and how etc?

  Thank you very much

  Hello!

  I think that you will get some guides because only a FSA (authorized service provider) has someone. These documents are not intended for the public.

  I put t know how to disassemble the laptop, but this procedure is delicate. You must remove many screws and parts such as keyboard, LCD, top cover and so far.

  * You can try and try but it s your own risk *. I think that this should be by a technician for laptop.

  In addition, I created an article may be interesting for you:
