• Can satellite M40x-183 - I switch from XP to Windows 7?

  Is it possible to switch from Windows XP to Windows 7 on my Toshiba Satellite M40X-183?

  Hello

  Theoretically, you can do everything, but you know how old your laptop is? In my opinion Windows 7 isn't the first choice for good old classic. It of designed for Windows XP and you should be satisfied with this OS.

  In my opinion, Windows XP is the best choice for old books, that they are not designed for Windows 7.

  Hello

  If there is no possibility try test your WLAN functionality with another network wireless (friend or maybe in your company). On this path, you should be sure if the problem occurs only with your WLAN.

  Try to install the driver for your WIRELESS Intel network card. You can find it under http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df-external/Product_Filter.aspx?ProductID=1847&lang=eng

  Hey,.

  An alternative you can buy a USB key with the WLAN functionality if you prefer this way. ;)

• Satellite E205-S1904 - switch wireless works do not (not light)

  Hi ~ I have a SAT E205-S1904 and he died a few months ago. I took it to be fixed and they said it was a software problem and that fixed it.

  Before I took it in my switch wireless did work. Now, there is no light, and it does not have the kid who fixed, he says the material was very well and he couldn't understand why it wasn't. I have a WiFi connection in my house, what makes this laptop completely unusable for me. I have windows 7 on it.

  What Miss me?

  How should we know what are you missing?
  I put t understand how it stopped working suddenly.

  Question is: what did you do with your machine?

  Also, I think it's software related, but on this virtual path issue, it is not easy to say what the problem is here. Fact is that this function is controlled by software that runs in the background. Maybe you stopped him somehow.

  What you can do is to reinstall the OS again and again test the functionality with the factory settings.

  Hello

  There are display settings important to do to be able to use the Wlan.
  First you must activate the Wlan: generally it takes the switch Wlan on POSITION (LED should be bright) and you must activate the Wlan using the Fn + F8 key combination.

  Is this possible?

  By the way: what system are you using?

• Connection WiFi is keep falling Satellite M40X

  Hello

  I use Satellite M40X series and use built in wireless device to connect to the internet.
  I use T * TG484v7 son wireless router.

  Wireless device is plugged into the next room, I have no problem with the connection when using desktop Mac but some how Toshiba laptop does not properly, connections fall Dungeon and I have plug it back manually.

  I use firewall Kesperky.

  Any idea?

  Thank you

  Hello

  First of all, you should check if a new WLan driver is preinstalled on your laptop.
  I'm not quite sure what WLan card you have, but if you're using the Intel card, then you could check and download the latest Wlan driver from the Intel m page.

  Second, you must turn off option in the properties of card WLan to save energy.
  (-WLan card-> properties > Device Manager-> last tab called Power Saving)

  In addition, the properties contains the Advanced tab. This tab also contains an additional option that could help you increase the power of the WiFi signal.

  By the way; the WLan would always disconnect if the WiFi signal is too low

• Problems with WLAN on Satellite M40X

  It is possible to get wlan working on laptop Toshiba Satellite M40X?

  I have Windows XP Home Edition installed and wlan worked fine, but after that I formatted and reinstalled Windows XP Professional, Windows could not find the wireless - ethernet adapter network adapter: (point yellow question mark?) I tried to install the drivers on the Toshiba site, but they do not seem to work properly. How can I solve the problem I don't know what wlan adapter is (Intel or something else). In otherwise, laptop works fine.

  A friend of mine has Satellite M40x-185 and it has network without WIRE Intel 2200 b/g card. It's always wrong to post just the name of the template but not exact model M40x-xxx but I assume that you have Intel WLAN too.

  Visit the portal of Toshiba WLAN Driver and use the latest version of the driver to install the wireless network on your laptop card.

• Installation of the windows 2000 satellite M40X chipset

  I currently own a M40X which has been pre-installed with Windows XP Home Edition, but due to the nature of our business, I now need to install Windows 2000 on the machine. Drivers XP for audio, video and wireless network etc all work fine on 2000, but unfortunately the chipset drivers na? t seem to work at all.
  I was wondering if there is anywhere I could get Windows 2000 compatible drivers like the USB ports and some other components are now rendered useless.

  Any comments or help is greatly appreciated
  Thanking you in advance

  Hello

  The chipset driver utility made by Intel, and I guess that chipset from the Intel Web site for W2k driver should also work on the Satellite M40X.

  I recommend this site:
  http://downloadfinder.Intel.com/scripts-DF-external/Support_Intel.aspx#

  You should check what chipset you have and then to install the right software.

  PS: I'm not 100% sure but I guess there must be chipset type 'Mobile Intel 910GML Express Chipset with CeleronM or Mobile Intel Express Chipset 915GM' Mobile Intel 915 PM Express Chipset

  Good luck

• Satellite M40x-112 - need advice on upgrade HARD disk

  Hello

  I have a Satellite M40x-112, it is almost 3 years and the hard drive (TOSHIBA MK8025GAS ATA) has problems, I need to change it, but I don't know a lot of this so I ask for help and advice on which hard drive should I buy for this laptop.

  I searched and read, but I still don't understand... In my view, there are many interfaces like PATA, SATA, ATA, then I saw ATA-2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 also Ultra-ATA/100, EIDE, IDE etc etc... so I'm really confused...

  What interface using my laptop? What interface to use the new hard disk?

  And what hard drive 2.5 "is good? You will find a large number of companies, which is the best hard drives for laptops?
  My current hard drive is fat 80 GB. I would switch to 160 or 250, this guy do you recommend?

  Thank you all very much for your help,

  I understand that very well the different titles of interface HARD drive confused most people me too in the past ;)

  Then I would try to clarify some things;
  There are two important differences between the interfaces of HDD; IDE (ATA, PATA and also known as EIDE) and SATA (SATA).

  ATA - 5, Ultra ATA/66 means Ultra DMA 3, 4 (44.4, 66.7) means UDMA/66
  ATA - 6 means that ultra ATA/100 that means UDMA 5 (100) means UDMA/100
  ATA - 7, Ultra-ATA/133 means that UDMA 6 (133) means UDMA/133

  and so now ;)

  Your laptop supports the drive HARD IDE (ATA-6) Enhanced interface and you must use the IDE HDD (NOT of SATA)

  I'm not sure on the size HARD disk max because Toshiba doesn't provide official information on the max supported drives hard but a 100 GB maybe 120 GB of HARD drive might be possible.

  Best regards
