• With Toshiba Tecra S3 RAID hard drive temperature monitoring

  I wonder if there is a software (or a tweak for Toshiba RAID Utility/drivers) that would allow the monitoring of the temperature of the HARD drive.

  Utility known as SpeedFan, HDTune etc., I tried, and that work very well at least with IDE drives, either don't notice not the hard drive SATA RAID at all on my Tecra S3, or they can not access the S.M.A.R.T on the temperature information (possibly information can not pass through Toshiba RAID drivers...)

  Thnx for any comments.

  Hello

  I usedEveresthome edition.
  But I am an owner of the laptop with a disk IDE HDD and to tell the truth I don't know if it will support the feature m RAID.

  But you can test it.
  This utility reports the HARD drive and the temperature of the CPU and provides many useful and detailed information on the characteristics of portable equipment.

  I hope it's going to market

• Tecra Z40 - A - 16 c - indicator battery life problem

  Hello

  As from 2015, I own a Toshiba Tecra Z40 - A - 16 c.

  I noticed a strange behavior regarding the battery life indicator. When the laptop is fully charged, the indicator shows 100% remaining. And when I use the laptop, the percentage drops slowly, as expected.
  However, as soon as somewhere around 50%, the indicator is suddenly decreases and says he has only 5 or 4% left and I should switch it on immediately.

  Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

  Kind regards
  Oliver

  The battery may need calibration. Load and unload completely several times.

  If it happens again, the battery needs replacing. You can check the level of wear using HWMonitor from cpuid.com.

• Tecra Z40 - Has - frequently freezing / hanging under Win 7

  OS win 7 64 bit 4 GB ram i5 processor

  Pls suggest...

  Concerning
  Vishnu K

  Hello

  Do you run a specific application while the laptop freezing?

  These symptoms may be related to some software conflicts between installed applications or some drivers not work.

  Have you ever tried to recover the laptop back to factory settings?
  Otherwise, I think you should try this procedure and it must conduct audits after the device has been recovered...

  Please also keep an eye on the MS updates would install automatically... sometimes it may happen that MS updates could confuse the system, and finally the windows would start freezing

• Tecra Z40 - A - the upgrade (RAM RAM)

  Hi all

  Ordered little RAM to upgrade my Toshiba Tecra Z40 - A, but can not find, for the life of me, anything where you want to insert online.

  I previously installed RAM under the keyboard (couple of clips holding it) and on the other, a small cover on the bottom, but the Z40 does not appear to be anywhere easily accessible.

  Has anyone upgraded RAM on the Z40? Or is it a big no, no, because of the guarantee?

  Thank you
  Lance

  Memory upgrade on this model Tecra is a bit complicated and, in my view, should not be done by the owner of the laptop. For some models of Ram upgrade can be done by the owner of the laptop and exact instructions how do proposed in document s user manuals, but not for your Tecra.

  For full access to the RAM modules lower lid should be removed and it can be done by people of service only. If you do this alone you can void the warranty valid.
  I recommend you contact the nearest Toshiba service provider in your country and ask for help or advice.

• Toshiba will be updating video driver from Nvidia NVS 2100 M for Tecra S11?

  Toshiba will be updated driver Nvidia NVS 2100 M of S11?

  My S11 machine is almost 3 years old. In the first year there was a lot of update for the drivers, but last year 1 there is no update.

  Official website of nvidia, there is a driver download page, but if I install the last driver - no matter that one - I have several video driver related issue. So I downgrade to the Toshiba nvidia driver.
  I'll try this one
  http://www.nvidia.com/object/Quadro-notebook-WIN8-Win7-WinVista-64bit-310.90-WHQL-driver-all.html

  If nvidia or toshiba will update the video driver?

  To be honest I don t think that Toshiba will offer updates for older models of laptops.

  As you probably know Toshiba offers modified and tested the drivers so it will be interesting to know what kind of problems you have with the NVIDIA driver.

• My computer Toshiba Satellite keeps the 'blue screen' and that is to say that it is caused by "a problem with a USB driver. How can I fix it?

  Resolve a problem with a USB driver

  You have received this message because your universal serial (USB) bus driver caused a stop error, also known as a blue screen error. This error means that the computer has stopped abruptly to protect against potential corruption of data or loss.

  What is a driver?

  A driver is software that allows your computer to communicate with hardware or devices. Without drivers, the hardware you connect to your computer (for example, a video card or a webcam) may not work properly.

  The recommended steps that follows can help to eliminate this problem, or at least reduce its frequency. Try them in the order listed. If a step cannot solve or reduce the problem, then move on to the next.

  Steps to fix this problem

  3. Download and install the latest updates and drivers for your computer

  It's a good idea to periodically check the updates of driver for your computer, especially if you added new hardware recently, such as a USB hub or other USB device.

  What is a USB hub?

  A USB hub is a device with multiple (USB) universal serial bus ports. USB ports are narrow and rectangular connection points to connect USB devices to your computer. A USB hub is used an Extender of port or port replicator, providing more USB ports to run from a USB connection on your computer. USB hubs can be external devices that connect to a USB port, or they can be internal devices built into your computer.

     1. Go online to Windows Update

     2. Click the check for updates in the left pane, and then click view available updates.

        What happens if I see any updates available?

        • If you see you receive updates: managed by your system administrator, you can try clicking on the link to check online for updates from Microsoft Update or Search online for updates from Windows Update, but you should maybe contact your system administrator to get the desired updates.

        • If you do not see the message above and no update is available in Windows Update after clicking on the link check the updates in the left pane, then the available updates have already been installed.

  3. If you recently added a new program on your computer, go online to the manufacturer's Web site to see if an update is available.

  Steps to work around this problem

  Warning
  These measures are intended to solve a specific problem, but could do so by temporarily disabling or removing some features on your computer.

  1. Try to remove newly added USB devices

     If this issue occurs after adding a USB hub or other USB device, consider removing to see if the problem goes away. If this resolves the problem, contact the manufacturer of the device for the updates or other recommendations.

  2. Do not disconnect USB devices while the computer is to stop or go to sleep

  This problem is known to occur when USB devices are disconnected when the computer is trying to stop or switch mode to 'sleep'. This is common with cell phones, especially those with a docking station, as docking station can act as a USB hub. The frequency of this problem could be reduced by allowing your computer to completely close or completely in sleep mode before detached from its docking station or unplug it or the docking station USB devices.

  If you know which USB device is causing the problem

  It may be possible to prevent the Blue error screen by choosing the option remove the device safely in the Notification area, before putting your computer into sleep or Hibernate mode.

  1. In the system tray, click the icon to remove the device , select the USB device that you think that the origin of the problem and then click OK.

  2. Do not physically remove the USB device.

  3. Perform the action which resulted in the Blue error screen, so that was taken the functioning of your computer after the mode standby, hibernation, or, in the case of laptops, close the laptop computer or place it in a docking station.

     1. If the Blue error screen persists, it is likely that the problem is with another USB device. Try this procedure using other USB devices until you find that at the origin of the problem.

• If the Blue error screen disappeared, you have probably identified the device causing the problem. Contact the manufacturer of the device for more information on how to solve this problem, or use the option to remove the device safely to work around him.

Note
Depending on the manufacturer and model, some USB devices will become available automatically when you resume using your computer. Others will require that first disconnect you physically and then plug back in front, they will be recognized by the computer. Check the system tray to see if the USB device that you removed safely become available when you started to use your computer again. If she did not become available automatically, then physically unplug it and then plug it in again.

This is the screen it gives me. Help, please! If problem fixed, will BE AWARDED!

• Re: Tecra Z40, Win 8.1 - malfunction of the fingerprint reader

  DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM:

  My Tecra Z40 arrived with Win 8.1.
  From the beginning I couldn't use the fingerprint utility.
  When you access the utility won't happen for a while and then the error: "Could not connect to the fingerprint reader" has finally popped up.

  I could also not use the actual construction of fingerprints 8.1 Win (error: this device has biometric devices is not suitable). (PS mind that this built in function is now integrated into the subway and no device biometric parameters are not now present in the control panel to 8.1 win!)

  The problem has persisted despite the last fingerprint utility (which comes with the drivers) have been installed to win 8.1. 64-bit directly from the website of TOSHIBA and despite that a biometric device was still present in the Task Manager ("this device is working properly").

  SOLUTION:

  After literally weeks of research (including getting help from the shop and service Toshiba), I could finally solve the problem.

  I uninstalled the driver and the reader of fingerprints from the Device Manager (then only fingerprint reader drivers really disappear).
  Then I cleaned the registry (I used CC cleaner software) (or install new wasn't a reason any).

  Finally, I installed a Fingerprint Utility equivalent and the driver for Tecra Z50 (fp - sw - 20140605164020.zip) (which I expect to be using the exact same sensor)... and since then everything works fine.

  I can now access the utility of fingerprinting and fingerprint log on in Windows.

  SUGGESTION OF CORRECTIVE MEASURES:

  It seems the driver on Toshiba support website (I think for me it was the Poles) for my exact machine (made by TOSHIBA - detector.exe) is incorrect.
  To make matters worse the driver does not communicate useful information on his miss - fit in the Task Manager! If I had to recalculate, in money, as long as I have and a whole lot of support persons had spent on it, there really meaning to improve this list of drivers!

  (PS: one of the files in the same directory online regpatch has a virus (VIRUS A Yes) it has been recognized by Antivir!) -Toshiba, you can communicate with someone responsible for the Polish support site!)

  OUTSTANDING ISSUES:

  No fingerprints, login is possible in Mozilla or Internet Explorer despite the appropriate plugins have been installed as well as the utility of fingerprints, where the web password option has been activated. (no suggestion seems to appear to reach the service fingerprints for the sites that require passwords, maybe that your service gets blocked by popup blocking browser protection?).

  I'm really looking forward to this feature.
  Make sure that the plugins work correctly with the latest browsers.

  Greetings

• Toshiba Tecra S3 - new SSD stuck on JBOD, cannot install windows on it

  I just got myself a Kingston V series 64 GB SSD drive, but I can't it is detected by windows installation programs.
  After looking around, I found that the Tecra S3 drives must be "1RAID 0" and not JBOD to activate windows to
  be installed on it. (unless you use the recovery CD, which I did not right now, even if I wanted to use it)

  I also found the "collar" necessary to get the BIOS to change when you get to 'run the creation '.
  is 1,2,3,4, [Enter].

  But here's the catch: + BIOS does not account for the string... +.
  I type the string, 1234, [Enter], and it cancels my desired, change as if I said NO and set it to JBOD.
  (if I don't type the string on the right, it comes out, but stays 1raid0 and "run the creation" is still there)
  I tried on one of my other drives and it worked fine, but for some reason this drive seems not wanting me to.

  I tried the USB drive (works fine) and the BIOS sees it for what it is, so that the drive works well (from my tests)

  Would be really appreciated any ideas on what to do now, I'm out of ideas on what I did not properly
  Thank you!

  Hello

  > I just got myself a Kingston V series 64 GB SSD drive, but I can't it is detected by windows installers

  Have you included the RAID driver in Windows before you tried to reinstall the OS?
  On the European driver Toshiba page, you can find the RAID driver to be included when installing Windows installation.

  Regarding the change in BIOS RAID;
  I m not very good, but it might be possible that you cannot change the reason the SSD RAID option.
  If other drives are working properly and that the RAID may be changed using a common HARD disk the problem is related to the new SSD drive.

  Maybe you need to update the firmware on the SSD drive to check it out.
