I got the exact same dilemma as you when I buying laptop that time. Ended up took the 2011E. Why? Because it's smaller in size and technically faster. 15 inch laptop really big to me le. Coz I need to carry my laptop around.

But that just me .

regarding m100,is it possible for us to opt for 2.0GHz C2D?If it is,how much does it costs?Overall is ok for me just not satisfy with the processor.

i have a portege M500, comes with Vista home, but i downgraded to XP pro due to some in house software need XP pro to run. now i can't decrease/increase the LCD brightness using " FN + F5 " key...to +/- the brightness using keyboard. any idea how to solve it ?

Not sure how to get back the keyboard keys to control. But, if you only want to change the screen brightness, you can still use the Toshiba Power Saver to adjust.

I guess you have to install back the "Funtion key" driver back. Best to get those driver from a Toshiba laptop that is running on Home XP.

Hope this help.

just got my a100-2212e....overall is quite ok.
the battery can only lasts for 2hours....under power saver mode..is there anyway to prolong the battery life? cos i duwan to carry the charger everywhere i go..

hi hi .. not using toshiba notebooks ..
jz wanna join n chit chat ^ ^

Qosmio Q30 user (or was it G30??)

where else can I buy Toshiba notebook batteries other than from teledynamics?

Toshiba Satellite M40.

Problem:
Wi-Fi button has to be set on/off each time to activate wireless network connection.

I never had this problem until this morning, what could cause this problem?
My laptop is one and half yr old, normally i just leave the Wi-Fi button to on.

But now each time when i shut down/restart, even though the Wi-Fi button is on, there is no light and i can't connect to Wi-Fi unless i switch it off/on.

Anyone faced this problem before?

mumeichan, teledynamics is the sole distributor in Malaysia...so matter where u buy the battery..it'll come from them too...but maybe you can scout around for Toshiba dealers that can provide a more competitive price..I'm thinking of getting a 12 cell battery. But it cost almost 1k. haha..

NekoRacing, I own a M40 too. you mean you leave the WIFI on even when you shutdown or restart right? last time i used to have this problem too. But after i reinstall the driver..then it's fine already.

Just the driver for Wi-Fi?

M40 rocks.. Haha..
But speaker sucks lah... always break.. u face this problem?

getting mad...anybody, pls, tell me where i can get the drivers of toshiba m100 1211e on internet.
try searching whole morning not found, headache!!
i need the drivers of windows xp and fedora core 6. i installed fedora but cant hear any sound, wonder the driver not compatible..

cyberkid,

Depending on the music i'm listening to.
The weird thing is, the speakers break and then it doesn't, like it has a mood of its own.

my A100's speakers sometimes also facing the sound problem.... sometime loud sometime soft... dunno why...

Guys,

I own a Toshiba Portege 3110CT, a 1999 model, and recently, the battery is gone! So, all I could depend on is the cable and I really wanted to use the notebook with its battery!

Does anyone of you knows how much the battery would cost If I am into buying a new one? And, do they sell second-hand batteries in Lowyat Plaza?

Thanx!

When it comes to battery, I'd advise you to get a new one.

Who knows how long can second-hand batteries last.

The battery on my M40, only lasts 1hour.

i am currently using toshiba m100...
i wan to add 1gb ram...
wat is the difference between toshiba ram and other brand ram?
will it crash if i use other brand ram?
