Bios Toshiba Satellite L640 Weight Lifting

I made an original post with my now ancient (12 year old) Satellite P105-S9722 back in 2009 & 2011 for Windows 7 64-bit drivers.

I also made a post for Windows 8 & 8.1 drivers. (No longer available as the Toshiba Forum has been discontinued.)

Now that I have newer systems, I have experimented loading Windows 8, then upgrading to Windows 10 in my P105-S9722 system. Wanted to share some observations and any issues I came across.

I have listed here some basic drivers you can use for your P100/P105 systems for Windows 10 and 32/64-bit to work. Many of these listed are from other users, but there may be some additional drivers many may not know about. I can't guarantee that all of these will make your system work 100%, but hopefully this will make your upgrade just a little quicker & easier.

Before using these driver, I recommend you do a fresh install of Windows 10 32 or 64-bit regardless if you are using XP, Vista, 7, 8 or 8.1 32 or 64-bit systems.

Now I did upgrade my system during the free upgrade period from Windows 8.1. I do recommend using either a USB flash drive or DVD disk to do a fresh install of Windows 10.

After installing the Operating System (OS), immediately go to Programs and Features in Control Panel . Make sure to turn on the .NET Framework 3.5 (includes .NET 2.0 and 3.0). You will need this to install some of the Toshiba utilities.

Step 1 Disassembling the Toshiba Satellite L645D-S4056 We will disassemble the Toshiba Satellite L645D-S4056 and remove the motherboard. Have a small flathead screwdriver and Phillips head screwdriver available.

Many of the native drivers for Windows 10 will automatically be installed. The wifi driver should work. I am using a Sparklan GN-WS30N 802.11n using Ralink RT2860 chipset that works in 10.

SOUND CARD: The biggest issue of Windows 7, 8 & 10 32/64-bit is that there is no sound. The old Audio 4.8.0.0 driver is the only driver that still works in Windows 10. There are much newer versions, but for some reason, the old driver works the best.

1) Download the driver.

2) right click the file to extract it to a folder of the same name (do not double-click as the automatic installation will fail)

3) double-click on folder Audio4.8.0.0, then double-click again on subfolder Audio4.8.0.0 if present

4) double-click on folder BD1-BH1

5) double-click on folder VXP64

6) recommend to double-click on file BD16HAa.inf to check if your sound Hardware ID is listed under [Conexant.NTAMD64], should be HDAUDIOFUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_5047&SUBSYS_1179FF31

7) close BD16HAa.inf file if opened in step 6, then simply double-click Setup64.exe

8) restart system (although audio may work right away, always a good idea)

Download: Audio 4.8.8.0.zip (LINK NOW AVAILABLE)

SYNAPTIC TOUCHPAD: If your P100/P105 has a dual Synaptic touchpad like mine, the driver does work in Windows 10, BUT you still need the utility to make it work.
Download: Toshiba Touchpad
Here's the thing with the Toshiba file, when you save it or run it, it unzips the folder into the TEMP folder. When you go to run it, the main setup will work. In case the autorun does not work, here's what you need to do:
1) Change you folder selection so you can show hidden folders & files
2) After unzipping the file, open C:Users'YOURNAME'AppDataLocalTempSynantec Touchpad.temp
3) Click on 'Setup' icon to run the file. (This file worked just fine on my P105-S9722 machine)
PCMCIA/Express Card/SD (TI) CARD READER - This driver will allow the PCMCIA, Express Card & SD Readers work normally on Windows 10.
There is issue with the Texas Instruments PCIxx12 Integrated FlashMedia Controller. I did find a driver the does work:
Download: Texas Instruments PCIxx12 Integrated Flashmedia Controller
Nvidia Video Card - After loading the OS, the maximum resolution on the native drivers is only 1024 X 768. In order to get the maximum resolution of 1440 X 900, a NVidia driver is required.
Download: Nvidia GeForce Release 179
Once this is loaded, use Windows Updates to download the most recent drivers. Windows 10 can use the older Vista driver. It is a good idea to download the NVidia GeForce Experience so that newer drivers can be installed: Nvidia GeForce Experience
If after the program is installed and you can't get the 1440 X 900 resolution, then you will need to manually install the driver.
1) Go to Control Panel, then select Device Manager
3) If the NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GS driver is NOT displayed, then right click on the current driver,
5) Select Browse my computer for driver software to manually install driver.
6) Put in this address: C:NVIDIAWinVista64179.48ISDisplay, then press 'Browse...' button
7) Click OK when the 'Display' folder is highlighted
8) Click 'Next' button and wait for driver to load

9) If it does NOT work, repeat steps 3-8. If it does work, restart computer
Once restarted, screen should automatically go to 1440 X 900
Fingerprint Reader (Biometrics Devices) - The Upek driver only goes up to Windows 7, but Windows 10 does have a native driver through AuthenTec that does work. The Toshiba fingerprint utility will be needed in order to user the fingerprint reader. The Toshiba Utility can be downloaded here:
Upek Fingerprint Driver 5.8.0.4024
The utility should work with the native driver.
That's pretty much it for the basic drivers. I did not include LAN or Wireless Drivers.
Finally make sure the most recent Bios are installed v4.70: http://cdgenp01.csd.toshiba.com/content/support/do​​wnloads/sp100v470.exe
There are attachments and links, but let me know if anyone is not able to download or use any of these links posted.
Current Issues & Observations: After I shut the computer down, when I open the screen, the computer automatically turn on. I haven't figured that out yet, but I'm sure I'll post a fix in the near future. The computer definitely boots much faster compared to Windows 7 and I've upgraded the older spinner drive with a Sata III SSD Drive. Even with only 4GB of memory and the first generation Duo Core processor, P105-S9722 is still running well.

Just understand that Windows 10 does require some resources and updates are slow (even with SSD drive) due the old dual processor and RAM

This model is capable of holding 4 GB of RAM; however it will always display 3 GB available in all OS since the CPU can only process 3 GB. 64-bit OS can still be run on this system, but it may be slightly slower than 32-bit OS.

As of September 2018, I am using Windows 10 Pro 64 bit version 1803. It's nice to know that even though the old P100/P105 systems do not support anything over Windows Vista, we can use the contemporary software on a system over 10 years old.
Good luck.

Introduction

Accessing and disassembling the bottom half of the Toshiba Satellite L645D-S4056 for repairs, replacements, and upgrades.

This guide does not include the LCD display.

No parts specified.

    • We will disassemble the Toshiba Satellite L645D-S4056 and remove the motherboard.

    • Have a small flathead screwdriver and Phillips head screwdriver available.

    • An anti-static wristband is recommended.

    • Have a way to keep your screws organized. I use an ice cube tray. I tear off pieces of scratch paper, and label them to where the screws came from.

    • NOTE: The screws are magnetized, reducing the risk of them falling into the machine and being lost. They will stick to the screwdriver upon removal.

    • Here is the link to the Toshiba support site for this model: http://support.toshiba.com/support/model...

    • Flip the laptop over so that you are working on the bottom of the machine.

    • Unplug the A/C adapter from the laptop and the wall outlet.

    • Remove the battery - pull the slides that lock the battery in place, on the bottom of the laptop, on either side of the battery.

    • Unplug any other devices that are connected to the computer - wireless adapters, Ethernet cables, etc...

    • Next, we are going to remove the memory modules.

    • With the laptop still flipped over, locate the 'L' shaped panel.

    • There are 3 screws that hold this panel in. Use your Phillips head screwdriver to remove them.

    • Once the screws are removed, used a flat head screwdriver or fingernail to lift up on the notch and remove the panel, exposing the memory modules.

    • NOTE: The screws holding the panel in do not come out the whole way. They just loosen up enough to remove the panel.

    • On each side of the memory module, there are silver arms locked into notches on each side of the memory.

    • Pull them away from the memory module to unlock it.

    • Your memory stick will stand up at an angle, once both sides are unlocked.

    • Pull up on the middle of the memory module and remove it from the slot.

    • Repeat this process to remove the second memory stick.

    • The next step is to remove the optical drive.

    • There is a small screw located just above the memory slots, beside the barcode label.

    • Remove the screw, and push the silver piece under it towards the barcode label.

    • The optical drive can now be slid out from the opposite side.

    • Next, lets remove the wireless card.

    • Pull up gently on the white wire, then the black wire.

    • Remove the two screws.

    • Lift and pull the wireless card from its slot.

    • Use your flathead screwdriver to pop the CMOS battery out.

    • NOTE: This is much easier to do once the wireless card is removed. You will have much more room to work.

    • The hard drive comes out next.

    • Locate the rectangular panel on the bottom of the laptop.

    • Unscrew the two screws holding the panel in place.

    • NOTE: The screws holding the panel in do not come out the whole way. They just loosen up enough to remove the panel.

    • Use a flathead screwdriver or fingernail and pop the panel up from the notch, exposing the hard drive.

    • On the end of the hard drive, there is a silver panel with one screw holding it in place.

    • Remove the screw.

    • Lift up on the clear flap, and then pull back on it to remove the hard drive.

    • There are 3 flat screws on the chassis where you pulled the battery from. Remove them with your Phillips head screwdriver.

    • There are two more screws, one on each side of the battery connection that also need removed.

    • These sets of screws will allow you to remove the keyboard bezel and the surrounding chassis.

    • Flip the laptop over, and open it up.

    • Lift up on the long plastic piece just above the F keys (the keyboard bezel).

    • This will expose 3 screws in a horizontal row that need removed.

    • Use your Phillips head screwdriver to remove those screws.

    • After the bezel and screws are removed, lift up on the back of the keyboard. It should lift freely.

    • NOTE: Be slow and gentle. There is a ribbon cable connected to the back of the keyboard that you do not want to damage.

    • Flip the keyboard onto its keys, with the silver side up.

    • Follow the ribbin cable to the blue connector on the laptop.

    • There is a black bar that runs across the top of the cable.

    • You should be able to flip this up with the tip of your finger into the unlocked position. If not, gently flip it upward using your flathead screwdriver.

    • Gently pull the ribbon cable from the connector.

    • The keyboard is now disconnected.

    • Close the screen, and flip the computer over so that you can work from the bottom once again.

    • Notice the holes labeled with 'F5'.

    • Remove all screws in these holes.

    • NOTE: You may have to move the wireless antenna. Notice the track to the right of my finger that the wire is fed through. Be sure it is out of this track.

    • NOTE: There is a hidden screw on the outside of the slot where where you pulled the optical drive from, which is referenced for you in the 3rd picture.

    • There are 13 total screws.

    • Flip the laptop back over, and open the display screen.

    • Notice the holes labeled with 'F3' and 'F5'.

    • Remove these screws from each hole using the Phillips head screwdriver.

    • There are 7 total screws.

    • Identify the speaker cable.

    • Pull the speaker cable from its pin connection.

    • Identify the touchpad ribbon cable.

    • It is towards the bottom with a purple base.

    • Flip the black bar up into the unlocked position, either with your finger or gently with a flathead screwdriver.

    • Pull the ribbon cable out by the purple flap.

    • Identify the power button ribbon cable.

    • It is at the top with a bright blue base.

    • Flip the black bar up into the unlocked position.

    • Pull the ribbon cable from its connection using the blue flap.

    • Lift and remove the top cover.

    • NOTE: Do not pull hard or pry at first. If the cover is difficult to remove, be sure that you removed all screws. If so, then do not be afraid to GENTLY pry with your flathead screwdriver. You may have to tug or apply gentle force to get this piece off.

    • For me, working one of the corners up, then sliding my finger between the top and bottom pieces of the chassis along the edges worked flawlessly. Try not to scrape any internal parts when you do this.

    • Identify the VGA cable going to the motherboard.

    • Grip foil wire and connector as pictured, and pull it from the connection.

    • Identify the video connection.

    • There is a piece of clear tape that secures the connection to the plastic sheath over the motherboard. Peel it back.

    • Gently remove the cable from its connection to the motherboard.

    • NOTE: This cable was somewhat difficult to remove. It was very tight in its connection. Be patient and gentle when removing it if you have the same experience.

    • Ensure that all screws holding down the motherboard are removed.

    • The circles show where my last few screws were located, before removing the motherboard.

    • Depending on which version of the laptop you have, there may be a screw toward the top left holding the fan to the case that needs to be removed also.

    • Lift the motherboard up gently at the notch on the right, identified by the green box.

    • Once it is lifted up, pull gently to the right and lift up to dislodge it.

    • If all went well, you have successfully accessed and removed the motherboard to this laptop.

    • The heatsink and cooling fan assembly come off easily by removing these 4 screws and power pin connector.

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
