Warranty extension for Satellite U400

Hello!
I have a question about possibility to extend warranty for my laptop.
On the official web-ste there is information about my device and it;s written over there:
"Standard Warranty
Coverage: International Days:365 Expiration Date: 2010-05-25
Extended Warranty
Servicename: International Warranty Extension from 1 to 2 years Service Coverage: International Days: 730 Expiration Date: 2011-05-25 "
It's written that I have already an extended warranty, but i've just register the standard warranty of my new laptop!
Anyway, the question is: can i buy a warranty extansion in my cause and what type of extension i have to buy (from 2 to 4, from 2 to 3 e.t.c.)
Thank you in advance!
P.S. And one more question: my friend is going to buy Toshiba Satellite A500-1F2. The same question: which kind of warranty extension is he able to purchase?
Thank you!
Best regards,
Dmitry

Hi
Usually all notebooks are covered by standard warranty for a 1 year.
If you register the notebook on the Toshiba page, you will get an additional warranty year (altogether 2 years).
I think this is what you can see on the Toshiba page.
I think you can extend the warranty too.
You have to look here:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com -> Peripherals & Services -> Services -> Warranty extensions
There you will have to check available Warranty Extensions for your notebook model.

  • Question about Warranty extension on Satellite A300-1EI

    Good day.
    I need some information and assistance please.
    I bought a laptop around mid September 2008 in Saudi Arabia. (Jarir Bokstore). The store had a promotion whereby you get the standard one year international warranty BUT they give you a further extension of a year (hence, 2 years in total).
    I intended on purchasing an extended warranty for a three year period. I was told by the salesman that I can activate my "gift" warranty and later purchase another extendable warranty for a total of 4 year international coverage.
    I registered the given warranty and it appears on the toshiba warranty portal.
    However, when I returned to the store to purchase a further warranty extension I was told that you cannot register more than one warranty.
    I found this strange and therefore did not purchase the additional extended warranty yet. I need to know whether this is actually true or will I still be able to purchase an extended warranty again. Seems I run into a brick wall when I ask the salemen . . .thought I would try the forum instead.
    I need to get information from a reliable and trustworthy source.
    The other news they also gave me is that they are awaiting news from Toshiba regarding the same subject.
    Kindly assist.
    Thank you and eagerly awaiting a reply.

    Hi
    As far as I know all Toshiba notebooks are covered by warranty for one year (12 month).
    If you would register your notebook on the Toshiba European page you would get additional one year warranty; in total 2 years warranty.
    > The store had a promotion whereby you get the standard one year international warranty BUT they give you a further extension of a year (hence, 2 years in total).
    The additional one year of warranty is not a gift from the shop. You will get this additional year of warranty always if you would register the notebook. It has nothing to do with the place where you have purchase this notebook.
    So now some words regarding your warranty extensions;
    First of all you have to register your notebook on the Toshiba European page.
    This registration will enable the additional second year of warranty. (as mentioned above)
    Now if you want you can purchase further warranty packages.
    Toshiba provides different packages and in your case I would recommend checking this Toshiba European page for more details:

  • Battery for Satellite U400-13T

    My laptop is 2 years old.
    The battery now lasts for about 20 mins before it goes flat. Is there any thing I can do to rejuvenate it?
    If not what is the most powerful and long lasting battery I can buy to fit the laptop?
    The unit that is in it is model No PA3634U-1BRS but Toshiba do not appear to list it!
    Thank you in anticipation.
    Kishan

    Hi buddy,
    No, you can do nothing because the battery may needs to be replaced. A battery can be recharged about 500 times, after this its end of life. :(
    So in your case I would contact an authorized service provider. The guys can offer you a new battery that will fit in your notebook. You can find a list of the guys on official Toshiba website.
    If you have more questions, please let us know! :)

  • Question about 2 years warranty extension update to Satellite A200-1MY

    Hi,
    I was registered at the website www.toshiba-europe.com/registration. In the Free Warranty Extension book was wrote that when I register my warranty extension from 1 year to 2 year International Limited Warranty. When I looking at the website http://www.toshiba-tro.de/unitdetails my Warranty labor is still 365 days and warranty parts is 365 days. Why????

    Same confusion here ......
    I registered for my standard warranty and the 2yr. warranty extension within 30 days of purchase of my laptop. I also got a *+"Your Registration was successful.Your details have been stored".+*
    The extended warranty book (card where the agreement number was given) says +...."Once your registration details have been recieved by Toshiba, the warrenty status of your notebook can be checked at any time at the following web address <www.toshiba-tro.de/unitdetails>.+ After having registered for warranty extension and on checking at the given web address it still states my notebook warranty for one year instead of 3 years! Maybe they take time to undate the extended warranty in their databank , but it's almost 5 days since I registered and still it says 365 days warranty !?! *Infact it says my system is still NOT REGISTERED !* I re registered my warranty extension and again I got the message of successful completion of registration process , but still the <toshiba[tro.de/unitdetails> says not registered and 365 days warranty only ?
    Any suggestion pls as to how can i be sure my warranty period has been extended ?

  • Cannot use product key for Vista installation on my Satellite U400-112

    HI, NICE DAY
    I BOUGHT TOSHIBA SATELLITE U400-112 , WINDOWS VISTA , I FORMATED MY LAPTOP THEN I SETUP WINDOWS VISTA , BUT WHEN I INTRED THE PRODUCT KEY (THAT IN THE LAPTP`S STICKER) , A MESSAGE APPEAR AND TELL THE P K IS INVALID !!!
    BY THE WAY, MY WINDOWS VISA IS A COPY CD OF THE ORIGENAL VISTA, IT CAN BE UPTATED BUT DOES`T ACCEPT MY LAPTOP PRODUCT KEY!!!
    WAIT FOR HELP, THANKS.

    hi
    i get answer by search results
    ther is
    Hi!
    The product key on the bottom side of the notebook is an OEM key and belongs to the preinstalled OEM version. That means you can??t use this key with a normal Vista installation disk that you can buy on the internet or from a computer shop.
    If you want to install Vista you should a Toshiba recovery disk or a Microsoft disk with the corresponding product key.
    You can order a Toshiba recovery disk from Toshiba directly:

  • Extended warranty for Satellite A300-15C

    Hi
    I am new here so sorry if I posted it under wrong thread.
    I want to buy extended warranty for Satellite A300-15C (1+1 standard warranty) so I wanna ask which warranty package gives the longest protection for this model.
    2+2 is the longest? ID: SE5054I-PDB.
    Secondly, and more importantly, the laptop is more than 1 year old. When i was buying it, in retail store they told me that the extended warranty can be activated at any time, but now I see that there is this 30 days deadline policy. Is there any way how to overcome?
    Thanks

    Hello Pingo
    You must understand that this forum is user-to-user forum and what you need is expert advice. So I recommend you to contact nearest Toshiba authorized service provider and order best extended warranty option.
    At first you can visit Toshiba support page and pick up some info about warranty options.
    The link is http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Peripherals & Services
    On the same page under Support & Download > Find an ASP you can find address and phone number of your nearest ASP.

    This is your choice.  They should not be insisting.  If you can afford it it is a good buy but lots of people go without it.

  • Battery issue on Satellite U400

    I bought my Dad a Satellite U400 10J laptop for his birthday just under 2 years ago. Being over 60 and not too enthusiatic about using a laptop, he left the unit in his cupboard for close to a year before turning on. The first problem materialsed with the laptop not turning on with the "Battery not recognised" error. Subsequent updating of the BIOS got the laptop to startup. However, despite now charging (or appearing to charge) the battery only retains about 10 minutes of charge. This has progressively gotten worse to the point that the only way to use the laptop is to keep it constantly plugged in. Which as you can imagine, limits the utility of having a laptop in the first place.
    I did take it back to the retailer and since I had purchased a warrantly extension, was hoping that they would replace the battery. They refused indicating that the battery is not covered and that by not using the laptop intitially after purchase, I had in effect damaged the battery.
    Is this possible? Can a battery to irrevocably damaged through inactivity? I think that the period was around 9 months during which he had not even unwrapped it from the box.
    If it is, are replacement batteries an option or should I order an orginal Toshiba battery? Also, are there extended life battery options available for this model?
    Thanks in advance

    yes, it can take place. It's recommended to charge the battery full even if not used. You should use original Toshiba batteries Don't think that there is extended life battery option available

  • Satellite U400 - the webcam does not work anymore

    Hello guys here is my sudden probloema!
    About a year ago I purchased a laptop
    TOSHIBA - Satellite U400
    with s.o. WinVista 32bit and with integrated webcam chicony etc. ....
    For a year, everything worked correctly, but for some days now, the webcam does not work anymore.
    As soon as I try to open it, a message of management software cam that says "Webcam driver open fail, please restart or computer room"
    I tried to do it all: aggioronato and downloaded the drivers from toshiba, uninstalled the program and re installed the webcam ....! updated bios notebook ....! useless!
    the strange thing .. well that going into device manager ... the webcam is not there ....! but if the launch seems to open just then check quell caz ... Warning!!
    Gan you help me?
    Graziee

    Are you familiar and comfortable with LINUX LIVE bootable discs to load an alternative operating system with unobtrusive but extensive Toshiba device support so you can determine if your webcam hardware is ruined or if the problem is software and possibly solved reinstalling Windows ?
    At this point, you're pondering less time consuming but more expensive choices such as buying another web cam, or another computer and you might be temporarily borrowing someone else's web cam / using a non preferred spare web cam that isn't optimal for your needs.
    Continuously downloading software, registry cleaners, and repeatedly reinstalling drivers will eventually ruin your Windows installation and consume more time than you've wasted so far and still doesn't guarantee to fix your malfunction.

  • Satellite U400 (PSU44E) randomely rebooting

    Hi Everybody,
    I have a strange problem on my Satellite U400.
    For a couple of days it was starting sending blue screens and rebooting.
    I used the Vista memory check tool and identified one faulty RAM.
    I changed both with OCZ 2*2Go PC6400, and no more problems according to the vista memory check tool.
    But now, sometimes it works fine, sometimes I have blue screens and even sometimes it is rebooting wothout bluescreen just like that...pshh...
    The other thing I noticed is that I have some times some strange lines appearing randomely on the screen like a bad contact....
    I have updated the drivers of the motherboard, the diplay, and the BIOS...
    I have no more clues....
    Has someone an idea?
    Thanks,
    Furby

    Hi
    First of all the links to the images dont work.
    Secondly it would be interesting to know if your warranty is valid.
    If yes, then you should contact the ASP in your country before you would replace any RAM and other hardware parts. Usually the warranty should cover such replacements.
    Ive got a U400 too and my notebook is running fine. I upgraded the RAM too but I used the DDR2 667MHz (PC2-5300) 200-PIN SODIMM modules.
    I dont know why you used the PC6400 (800Mhz) but maybe this issue is really related to the RAM issue.
    Possibly the higher temperature could affect the functionality of the modules which would lead to the BSOD.
    Did you notice an higher temperature inside the notebook?
    How about fan cleaning?
    You could remove the dust from cooling grilles using the compressed air spray
    I think its worth a try

  • Satellite U400 wont turn on & when on wont come back from sleep mode

    I have a Satellite U400 and its a year and a few months old.
    In the last little bit it has been acting up, and it started with when the computer goes to sleep and goes to the black blank screen it will not come back from that.
    The only way to do anything is hold in the power key till it turns off and then turning it back on. This brings me to the warning screen I have turned my computer off incorrectly. It has been doings this for a few weeks and started randomly out of the blue.
    Then just today it wouldnt turn on at all, I was pressing the power key and the key itself would light up, and on the bottom right hand side the little lights would light up but wouldnt turn on, I kept pressing it over and over and over again and finally it did turn on. Once on I only used it for a few mins before turning off again and then would do the same thing, I kept pressing the bottom till it turned on. Its been on now and hasnt turned off again.
    Not to log ago I had to reformat my computer due to me forgeting my password and had locked myself out of the computer. About a week after that is when the issues started. I am not all that computer smart, to be honest, I do understand something things, I can follow step by step to do something.
    I really dont want to pay to have it fix I want to just do it myself and soon as its in great shape and never had any issues before.
    Does anyone have any idea what this could be, or why it could be?
    I am thinking about reformatting again as I am worried that didnt work out right the 1st time or something.
    Or if this is something that needs to be repaired does anyone have a clue on the cost of it?
    Thanks ^_^

    hi aev270,
    sounds like a serious problem to me.
    try the following: take out battery, cd-rom, hdd and try again.
    if it starts up without this components - you got lucky!
    this means it probably a software issue (but i dont think so - sorry)
    do you see the toshiba logo / bios messages? no - the you are in trouble.
    this strange behaviour could depend on many things: defektive components like ram or grafics... or (badest thing) the mainboard...
    if you have still warranty on it you should go to a servicepartner having the system checked.

  • Satellite U400-14B shuts itself off and now it wont start up

    Hi
    just got a new Satellite U400 this week.
    Was working perfectly the first few days, then last night, it just shuts itself off and now it wont start up.
    I press the on button and the row of lights next to it light up, but nothing happens I dont even get as far as the Toshiba screen.
    I have tried many things. I left it plugged in overnight, tried taking the battery out and no result as of now.
    The little led lights on the bottom indicate that there its plugged in, the battery is white not orange, when pressed they all light up again only for a split second.
    The only thing I can liken this too is when a car wont start and you keep turning and turning the key, well in this case pushing a button, and nothing happens, the fans dont whir or anything...
    help please...

    Has extra Memory (RAM) been installed? Try removing one Memory Module and try a different Memory Slot.
    If bad memory is not the problem, then there is not much else you can do except send it to an ASP for warranty repairs.

  • Portege M800 now is Satellite U400

    After Motherboard Replacement everest for windows reports my M800 as a Satellite U400. Can I modify this ? or i return my laptop to the service center.
    Thanks

    I think the DMI information needs updating. The service center should have done this when the mainboard was replaced, so take it back to them and ask them to update it.

  • Wireless issue with Satellite U400

    Hello guys,
    my laptop is Satellite U400-10n. (OS Vista)
    It was running perfectly. But now I cannot connect to a wireless network. When I search for a wireless network, sometimes nothing comes up. I'm using cisco network magic program but it didn't help. I tried everything. I disabled the Bluetooth devise. I turned off all the Bluetooth devices around (cell phones). I have a cordless phone; I turned it off as well.
    I tried to update the wireless network device, but didn't help either.
    Please guys I need your help.

    For WLAN configuration you don't need to use additional applications and you can configure it using Windows settings.
    Anyway, check all WLAN settings. Be sure the WLAN card and your router uses the same WLAN standard, try to restart your router.
    Have you tried to connect your notebook to some other WLAN?
    Can your notebook detect other WLANs?
