  Can someone tell me if I can return to the initial configuration screen and how?

  I tried to back up the directories and then delete them and you try to restore a single directory, but the other reappears too!
  I'm obviously a complete dunce so please do not forget that and keep your simple instructions!

  If anyone can help then anyone know a number 0800 for Toshiba Technical Support?

  Thanks in advance.

• WIFI works only under Windows XP on Satellite U400

  After the installation of Windows XP on my WLAN the U400 recovery is not found. It was working correctly under Win Vista.
  There is no module listed in Device Manager - once the new hardware search gave no results. It seems that the WLAN Interface is not recognized by Win XP.

  The Communication switch at the front was 'ON' - bluetooth works properly.

  It's amazing to me usually the XP should see and recognize the device inserted as an unknown device, if a driver has not been installed.

  But you're right. It looks like the U400 should be equipped with the Realtek 802.11(b/g) 13ch-RTL8187B Wlan card

  Have you tried the driver from the Web to Realtek site?

• Re: Satellite L100-179. impossible to activate the new WLan card inserted

  Hi all

  I bought a computer laptop satellite L100-179 wireless about 2.5 years ago.
  Last week I bought an Inter (R) PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection, this is an internal card!

  I installed the card and the latest drivers and the card worked properly under Device Manager
  When I tried to use the card after setting the wireless settings, I started to have problems.

  I then installed the software for the card help with the problem which has been the software Intel(r) PROSet/Wireless WiFi 12.1.2.0 that gave me a little more information about the problem. All the settings for the wifi are enabled except when I press Fn + F8 I get the following message:

  Wireless communication is disabled. Please turn on the wireless switch.

  But there is no switch on the side of the laptop just a plug of cache.
  I've ran out of ideas to get this working and would be really grateful for the help.
  My OS is XP home SP3.

  Hello

  I think that your Sat L100-179 is not extensible WLan.
  If this laptop has been delivered without the WLan card and the WLan switch does not exist, then you cannot use an internal WLan card!

  In this case, go to an external solution such as a USB WiFi key for example

• Satellite L20-196 - updates to the Atheros WLAN driver

  As may relative novice, I ask why Toshiba have updated the version of the driver (Windows XP) wireless lan Atheros three times in the last two months? The last update 25/05/11. It would not be because it's still a beta version and it would be better to wait for a final version?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Only the Toshiba himself knows why they have updated the driver. Here it s only a user to user forum so I doubt someone can answer your question because only this is no people of Toshiba.

  But why is it so important? If you n t have any problems you can forget the driver updates. This is only necessary if something doesn't work properly.
  Theoretically the new drivers don t contains bug fixes and supports Atheros WLAN cards. Who knows?

• X 230 error 1802 with the Correct WLAN card

  Recently, I ordered my brand new x 230 for the start of the University and selected the thought of WLAN card default option which would be sufficient for my needs. After the hand signal and dropouts, problems I decided to upgrade the WLAN card that would improve the signal strength.

  I know the existence of the 'white list' frustrating that means that some cards are allowed to use. So, I went in the store of Lenovo and looked for what was the best WLAN card that might come with a new order of a 230-System x, as surely they are on the whitelist.

  Later, I bought an Intel Centrino Ultimate - N 6300 card and installed correctly in my x 230. However, from the start I saw to my despair that the 1802 error was there, tells me my card has not been approved. Could someone explain how hell a card that can come already installed in x 230 is not did not whitelist checking?

  Needless to say I am not very satisfied with Lenovo, because I can't even find a list of what cards are accepted. What is the point in a white list anyway? I am a student trying to patch BIOS to remove it, but no one has yet done a patch.

  Why do I get an error 1802 with this card?
  Thank you.

  Hello and welcome,

  Doesn't have that 6300 come from the store of Lenovo, or from a vendor who said it was for a Lenovo laptop?

  The card type is not the whole story when comes to the white list.  In addition to the correct (6300) type by its PCI vendor and device ID, it must have an ID of subsystem of Lenovo.  (IIRC, it can be more precisely not the subsystem ID, but the effect is the same).  A generic 6300 will not work.

  A card must be sold by Lenovo or pass the white list.  Reputable suppliers will provide a number of Lenovo FRU (CRU) to check the FRU list for the machine.

  For example. Since the research database of Lenovo parts -> ThinkPad X 230page, the RUF for that 6300 is 60Y3233.  It was not easy to find.  The RUF are not in the hardware maintenance manual any more

  If your card has a number of Lenovo FRU, something else is in place.

• Satellite L40 - nothing happens if I install the Atheros WLAN for Vista update

  I answered the TEMPRO alert to download this update for my laptop Satellite L40. After you have downloaded and double-clicked as suggested on the SetUp.exe file, after a few seconds of 'small wheel', absolutely nothing happens more.

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  Have you tried to download the driver yourself on the Toshiba site? You can check it out here:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

  But to be honest the update a driver is not required, or you have problems with your laptop? If you don t have any problems with your WLAN card it s not necessary to update a driver.
  For example, I deleted TEMPRO because I don t need. I can download the drivers myself if I have a few questions.

• Satellite L50-A01Q - WLAN not detected after installing the Atheros WLAN driver

  I have a C50-A01Q. I recently replace the hard drive for an SSD. I installed Win8.1 via a DVD downloaded from Microsoft. I also installed the Download Driver Atheros Wireless LAN from Toshiba. However, the system does not recognize the WLAN. Someone reinstall windows 8.1? How did you get the driver?

  Maybe your laptop has a Realtek or Intel WLAN card inside. Specification of your laptop does not for me so I can't say with certainty what WLAN card is inside.
  Try to install other drivers and check in Device Manager.

  I have a modem router from Linksys WAG320N but expected something better. It is easy to configure for a connection high speed and have a lot of adjustment possibilities but a transmission of the signal is very poor. It is said that there are 3 antennas (internal I guess, don't see them) and I had trouble with a bad signal within a dish a few meters from the router. Genererally is not a bad router. I've seen a lot of recommendations for billions routers (modem router)...

  The name of Cisco on Linksys products not always means reliability. I do not know which router I will buy as a replacement for the WAG320N in the future, but it would not be a Valet or Linksys. This D-Link good mine:

• Adobe Acrobat 7 has worked well under Win 7RC1 (32 bit), cannot create Adobe PDF Port_Printer in Win7 (64 bit)

  I had Windows 7RC1 intalled Acrobat 7 (32 bit) and everything worked perfectly.  Now, I have installed the 64 bit version of Windows 7 and get an error message "Warning 20225. Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Setup was unable to create a new item: Adober PDF Port_Printer.  The PDF Adober printer may be unavailable.                "GetLastError: the operation completed successfully."

  It is just incompatible with the 64-bit version?  Information from Adobe on the said error message is not compatibile Win 7, but it certainly worked well in the 32-bit release candidate of Windows 7.

  Question

  When you try to install Adobe Creative Suite 3 on a 64-bit version of Windows, the installer returns the error message "the file AdobePDF.dll on Windows Vista CD-ROM is needed." You are given the option to search for the file.

  Reason

  Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional is installed with Design Premium, Design Standard, and Creative Suite 3 Web Premium versions. Although Adobe has tested Adobe Acrobat 8.0 (Standard and Professional) on the operating systems Microsoft Windows 64-bit running on a 64-bit processor computer, there are known limitations. For more details, see additional information.

  Solution (Windows Vista 64-bit)
  

  In order for Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional to be supported, the application must be updated after installation.

  1. When the error occurs, click Cancel to exit the dialog box and continue with the installation.
  2. Install Microsoft has Hot Fix, such as documented in Microsoft Knowledge Article #930627 available on http://support.microsoft.com/kb/930627 Base
  3. Update Acrobat version 8.1 or later. The Acrobat update is available on the Adobe website at www.adobe.com/support/downloads/ .

  Solution (Windows 7 64-bit)

  Manually extract the 'adobepdf.dll_64 ' of the file data1.cab file before installing Acrobat. When the prompt appears, navigate to this file and select it.

  1. Navigate to the folder that contains the file setup.exe to your installation of Acrobat 8.
  2. Locate the file "data1.cab" and open it (this may require a third-party compression utility, such as WinZip).
  3. Inside the content list, locate the file "adobepdf.dll_64" and copy it to your desktop.
  4. Run the program setup.exe installation and when the prompt appears, select Browse and select the file that you copied to the desktop.
     Note: If the file cannot be selected, change the file type drown down in the dialog box to "All files", or rename the file "adobepdf.dll" by removing "_64" from the end of the file extension.

  More information

  Because the Adobe PDF printer is not supported on 64-bit operating systems, version 64 bits of the AdobePDF.dll does not get extracted during installation. So, the installation program is unable to locate him. Although Acrobat is installed, the Adobe PDF printer will not install. Following the update procedure above will address the issue.

• Need drivers WLAN (Win XP) for Satellite L40 - 14Y

  Hello @ all

  I need a WLAN driver for Win XP. I tried the drivers Realtek 8187B origin on their homepage, but they won't install it. The download area said Toshiba is an Atheros WLAN device but these drivers are too bad. It is certainly a device Realtek RTL8187 WLAN.

  Can someone help me?

• Question about the compatibility of the drivers Win XP for Satellite L40 - 12 K PSL4E

  When you try to change my laptop from Vista to XP I don't find the drivers.

  However I found the driver for the same model, but PSL48, 49, 4B and 4 c. Could someone confirm that these drivers also work with my laptop PSL4E? Thank you/rgds. Sonia

  In general, you can install these drivers, BUT you should also check the chip chart and other devices like for example the wireless network card.
  Many laptops are equipped with different graphic chip or other card WLan so in this case you should pay attention to these differences.
