Top 20 Toshiba Portege M700-S7002 Tablet PC Questions & Answers

When I am not sure what button to push to enter the BIOS, I start at ESC and quickly run my finger down the row of the F buttons. Don't push each button individually as that will take too long, but run your finger from left to right without stopping.

Try re-installing the following and reboot:

For Windows 7
1. Toshiba Fingerprint Utility (for Windows 7 (32/64) click here,
2. Upek Fingerprint Driver (for Windows 7 (32/64) click here,

For Windows Vista
1. Toshiba Fingerprint Utility here or here.

If above steps won't work, the issue is most likely a hardware issue. To make sure that it's not, I recommend trying to do a full system recovery (if you don't mind starting from scratch - turn the computer OFF, hold the 0 key then turn the computer ON).

If you still encounter the same issue, call Toshiba support and have the unit serviced at 1-800-457-7777 (for US) or 1-800-663-0778 (for Canada).


Good Luck.

You can set a user password from inside Windows. From the configuration panel look for an icon that represents two persons and click on it. Follow instructions on setting a user password.
You can also set a password on boot but you have to be careful: If you forget it you cannot open the tablet to remove the password. You will need to take the computer to a Toshiba Certified Service Center.

To set the password on boot you can use the BIOS SetUp configuration or a Toshiba Windows applications (HRWset).

For Windows XP tablet PC edition 2005
If you have the CrossMenu application you can run the HRWsetup from there. You can also go to All programs, Toshiba Utilities and look for HRWSetUp.

For Windows Vista or Windows 7, the name of the application may be Toshiba Security Assist.

Be very careful. You must not lose the password

If you have Windows XP tablet PC Edition 2005 installed on it, you can use the Wacom Pen to enter text instesd of type it.

On Windows XP tablet PC Edition 2005, there is an Input panel Icon on the tray bar, usually to the left, close to the Start button.
Use the pen to click the Input Panel. When it opens showing you a black line on yellowish backround you can start using the pen as if it were on paper. Depending on the pen input setting it will insert automatically or waits for you to press the insert button.
However for the converted text to be inserted you need to have a text editing software open (Word Pad for example.)

If when you open the input panel you see a keyboard you can change that to handwriting (continuous line) or typing separate letters.

The computer can be taught to recognize your handwriting: You will need to practice. You might have to download and install the relevant ink recognition package for your language. Look for it on the Microsoft tablet PC page.

try to open a virtual keyboard maybe one of your keys is stuck it should be in programs accessories

You can access the BIOS usually by pressing "esc", "F1", "F8", or "F12". One of those buttons

should work.

As for the hang up at the logo, it sounds like your hard drive might have crashed. The same thing

happened to me on my Vaio.

The touchpad might have been disabled. try the Fn-F9 key combination. It toggles the touchpad ON or OFF.

try going on the website www.toshiba.com fo user manual downloads .

If the optical drive On/Off utility icon says OFF you cannot open the drive. You will have to turn it ON.
Point to the icon with the mouse cursor and right click. You will have the option to turn power to drive ON. Verify it by pressing Fn-TAB.

For that when you power up the computer press F8 key then if you are able to see safe mode and other menu then enter in safe mode.
Then go to start menu ->run type in "chkdsk /r" then press ok then restart computer then it fix errors on harddrive.
But if you are not able see windows logo and safe mode menu when you press F8 then open back panel of laptop if you have desktop then open cpu cover then reseat the RAM memory.
Then check.
Let me know if you need further assistance.
Thanks for using FixYa.

There are probably not enough Toshiba tablet experts on line to assist you with your problem. Assuming that you have removed all external devices connected to the device and the battery is fully charged. Batteries themselves have a device inside them that will shut down when they overheat or if you draw to much current from them. I'll assume its not the battery. When a tablet freezes or locks up, it is either a hardware problem or a software problem. The hardware is harder to fix as it may require looking inside the device at the electronics. Software is perhaps an easier place to start to prove if it is a hardware or software problem. The software divides into 2 categories. The Apps that run on the device and the Operating System that manages the device and the user queries and the data coming & going. So, the things that you can try are: 1. Do a complete tablet reset. The buttons you use and the method will be in your manual or find the manual as a .pdf file on line. This restarts the complete reset & power up of the device. 2. Throw out all Apps that have been loaded since purchase. Then reset & test for fault. Assuming of course that you have a backup of all your purchases (Music, Apps, Movies, Books etc) once you have done all this you have completed the software side of diagnosing the problem. If still not solved.... 3. The hardware may be faulty or bad. If your not qualified yourself to take it apart then take it to a Toshiba dealer for repair or Warrantee replacement. Record it's serial number first. 5. So... like so many other people... you must have bought this machine because of price, Right? I mean, why else would you buy such an obscure brand of Tablet! Because it was cheap you will now pay the price & perhaps realize why so many people buy the most popular & well supported machines on the market. Android devices are for the Tech guys that like to fiddle & don't like Apple's control or price. So if your not in that class the the options are clear. Although expensive, Apple were the first & are the best in their class. When did Toshiba start making world class Tablets??? Go Figure!

Restart the computer, and force it to boot from the Windows XP CD-ROM. Choose "Repair Existing Installation", and see if that fixes the problem. It might be better to remove the disk-drive, attach it as a "slave" disk-drive in some other computer, and copy all your files onto an external disk-drive.

There should be a little hole somewhere on the tablet. Stick a pin in it then it should factory reset it. Or if you can, create a new user then go to settings and factory reset it from there.

have tried connecting with usb cable
