    great computer when it works

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Apr 22, 2006 | 2 out of 2 found this Toshiba Satellite M35X-S149 Laptop Computer review helpful

    Pros: good graphics, fast - when working

    Cons: sound (lack of volume) - computer locks up (see below)

    The Toshiba works wonderfully when it works. About every six to eight weeks it locks up and in the process loses / corrupts Windows dll files. This unfortunately can only be remedied by a complete reformatting of the hard drive which in turn loses al...l of your work (partially due to the fact that the restorre disk that Toshiba provides does not provide any other option). I have had six calls to Toshiba and have returned the computer twice - Toshiba has no idea how to fix the problem with the computer, and on some of the calls I am quite sure that I know more about their product than they do. They send it back with a new hard drive reformatted and within weeks it crashes and is down again. I have been forced to buy an external hard drive just to keep any of my critical data. I am in the process of looking for a replacement to my defective unit (hopefully Toshiba will step up to the plate and offer me a replacement). By the looks of the other reviews and the class action lawsuit against Toshiba, I am not alone in this issue. When the computer runs, it does perform well. But at this point, I have absolutely no confidence in this laptop. I am trying yet again to reinstall all of my programs so I can use it, knowing that it is only a matter of time until the laptop dies on me again. Read more Less

    Nothing but problems since I got it 1 1/2 year ago

    By Jorge  Aug 29, 2006 | 1 out of 1 found this Toshiba Satellite M35X-S149 Laptop Computer review helpful

    Pros: Good wireless reception

    Cons: low volume, crashes a lot, keyboard acts up when typing

    I had the hard drive formatted twice. The power cord peg got busted. The battery died after 1 1/2 years. The geeks at Best Buy always give me the run around. I just got it back four days ago and it wont power down on its own. I'm taking it b...ack to the shop, again, tomorrow. I had it with the Best Buy geeks and the Toshiba folks. The best bet is to get a replacement, free, by Toshiba. Read more Less

    Overheats and Freezes UP

    By CharlesP  Mar 23, 2005 | 1 out of 1 found this Toshiba Satellite M35X-S149 Laptop Computer review helpful

    Pros: Terrirific Features for Great low Cost

    Cons: Freezes up all the time

    I had love affair right off with the Toshiba MX 35 149 (Great Screen size, music/features/cd movies feature)until it started to freeze up or worse, just cut out and self-reboot. I think it overheats and then crashes XP Home Edition all the time. The ...WiFi goes buggy after cashes and I have to boot up with F1 in DOS screen or Choose Normal start up in Dos B&W screen after crashes, over and over until XP corrects the mess and computer is cooled down. I do keep the vents open and on good vented surface but still it locks up after a while. Only XP crashless operations/repair save the day. When I walked with it on, it trips out! I lost my Toshiba Boot disk, contacted Toshiba Support 6 months ago, they said they would send me a replacement. They never did. I bought a battery erroneously listed in their brochure for the MX35, it did not fit. They did refund money after sendback. I contacted Toshiba and they have a recall on this model. They gave me a recall number/under warranty and a place to take it to in NYC. But I have to do tax work and can't take it there. They also said they would send a box so I can ship it to a repair facility! How long would that take? I thought I would not need a parallel port (J&R NYC told me right off, it has none) but almost at once, I had needs for one. I miss this. Long suffering but I still love my flawed Toshiba.

    Horrible Quality

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Mar 8, 2006

    Pros: cheap

    Cons: doesn't work

    I have had to take this laptop in for issue after issue. They replace the parts and it stops working again. Once because of the power connection having a bad solder joint and about four times for the screen flickering intolerably. I just got the scre...en "fixed" a couple of weeks ago and it's flickering horribly again. On top of all that, the thing feels crappy. You out your wrist down gently to type, and the laptop sags and makes cracking noises. The fan is insanely loud. The battery life, touch-pad, sound, and performance also suck major balls. I am never buying Toshiba products again, and neither should you. Read more Less

    grab this product before it runs out

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Feb 25, 2005

    Pros: pricing is good

    Cons: sound, not wireless

    This is a very good product for the price, but the only thing that was disappointing is that it's not wireless. But so far I've got no problems w/it.
