• Battery won't charge and satellite A75 works on current alternative

  Hello

  I can't charge the battery and the laptop does not work on current alternative.
  The power is already checked and is ok.

  May this be an of faul?
  And why the laptop does not work without it?

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you very much!

  Hello

  Due to the fact that your Satellite A75 does not work with a plugged AC adapter and battery, I assume that there must be a serious hardware problem.
  To my knowledge there would be something wrong with the electronic power supply.

  In my opinion, you will not be able to solve this problem without the help of ASP.
  So I recommend you to make a call to the ASP technician and ask for details and more handling.
  If the warranty is valid, then everything should be done for free

  I hope you can clear this good luck question

• Satellite A30 PSA30E - battery won't charge

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A30 laptop ((n° de pièce = PSA30E-00E5-FR) and recently when plugged in, the battery is not, in fact he tell Chargers.) When the laptop is turned off, if you plug the battery icon orange lights and charges of battery, but when you start the laptop to halfway through start orange icon battery turns off and the battery won't charge. If you start the laptop just using the battery once it is in place and ongoing enforcement if you plug the nothing happening for example the battery charge orange icon does not illuminate.

  The power is always on the laptop the screen stays on its setting of intensity, but the laptop turns off when the battery runs down to 0%.
  I removed the battery and tried power the laptop just using the power grid, but the laptop does not turn on.

  Any ideas what wrong?

  If it is the battery which batteries would be compatible with my laptop to replace and how do 2nd hand/battery cost these days for my laptop?

  My battery model number = PA3250U-1BRS
  K000002280

  I found a battery on a site that resembles a Toshiba Satellite A35 (don't remember if it's A30 or Pro A30) - looking at the Toshiba Satellite A35, it's the same as my Toshiba Satellite A30 it would be compatible?

  Thanks for your time...

  Hello

  Eventually it s a battery but problem is just a suggestion.
  I do not recommend buying a second hand battery because second hand battery will discharge a lot faster.
  In my opinion, you should buy a new one.

  I googled a little bit for PA3250U-1BRS and found a few deals online, it seems that you can get it for 50-60 euros

  Regarding the battery A35.
  I think that it should be compatible with your laptop. The A35 is a Toshiba US series (A30 is the European model) and it of very similar to A30.

• Satellite C660-108 - fan keeps running

  I just bought a Satellite C660-108 and pleasure keeps running all the time. Is this normal?

  Hi Judith_2,

  If your laptop computer is in idle mode, it isn't normal that the fan still works. Normally it should start and stop as on other models.
  But if you run some background applications such as Internet browser, Antivirus, etc., it may be normal because the CPU causes a lot of heat and it must be cooled to protect it from damage.

  Anyway, you can try to change the cooling method in Windows power management. You can choose between a maximum Performance and battery optimized. If you want to reduce, change the value of the latter.
  I confirm there is really a difference between the methods of cooling and optimized battery is much quieter.

• Satellite C660-108 - Wireless does not work

  Hey everybody,

  New to the forum, I had to sign up because of a problem with shame. I would like to apologize in advance because I know nothing about how computers work.

  I have a toshiba satellite c660-108, windows 7 OS. Yesterday I was updating it and I used it very well after that I restarted. He stops and went to bed. Today, I turned on and he did a system restore, don't know why. So all went through and then it wouldn't connect to the internet wireless, only ethernet cable (http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=69127&tstart=0 - same problem as far as I can tell).

  I'm in the middle of my diploma thesis and word does not work now, so I did a full factory restore hoping everything would be ok. This isn't.

  Ive tried to download the driver toshiba wireless, just didn't work. It currently downloads Realtek but I'm sure it won't work either.

  How to get another wireless network card?

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  James

  The essential is that you it works again.
  So congratulations. :)

• Satellite C660-108 - Windows XP Home Edition does not install

  I try to install Windows XP Home Edition on a Toshiba Satellite C660-108, without success.

  I changed the BIOS disk in "Compatibility" mode (what is the same thing as "Legacy IDE"?) by following the instructions on a Yahoo Answers question on the same issue.

  What has improved the situation, in what I now get an error message a few minutes after installing XP said "Starting Windows" instead of immediately after. The error message is the same that I have already received and is as follows:

  "A problem has been detected and windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer...". "Technical information: * STOP: 0x0000007B (0xF78D663C, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000).

  Thanks in advance for any help,

  Luke

  PS - I'm a mac user and do not have much experience in the use of Windows laptops, so I need instructions spelled out clearly enough if possible.

  The error could be related to drive HARD and the setting in the BIOS of the controller...
  Probably, you need to install Win XP using SATA AHCI mode and to add the driver SATA as described here:

• Satellite C660-108 does not start if the USB Bluetooth dongle connected

  Hiya,

  I hope you could help me.

  I'm having a problem with my dongle bluetooth and satellite c660-108.
  It all works perfectly. It connects devices via bluetooth and I can do whatever I want.

  But then when I'm mobile stop and turn it on again it will go if the bluetooth dongle is always in the USB.

  I see Toshiba screen and then it hangs with a black screen and a cursor flashing at the top left.
  I have to turn it off, remove the bluetooth dongle and then turn it back on.
  And then windows starts. After that, I put in bluetooth dongle, once again I want to work with her.

  It isn't a huge problem, but it is a bit annoying when I have to leave the bluetooth and put it back again to get the windows began.
  I'm running under win 8.1 but he already had with 8 victory.

  Anyone any ideas?

  > I see Toshiba screen and then it hangs with a black screen and a cursor flashing at the top left.
  Especially the blinking cursor is displayed because the laptop can not find a boot device.

  It seems that the device cannot put on the HARD drive while the USB dongle is connected.
  I would recommend you check the boot order in the BIOS.

  Put the HARD drive in the first place and the USB boot last device.
  Save changes and check if it helps.

• Satellite C660-108 - slow response keyboard

  The keyboard on my Satellite C660-108 is very slow in response. Some characters are not at all, some only after a short delay. It's very embarrassing when I type text and passwords (!) because I have to double check any type (and 1 / 3 words has spelling mistakes, because of the problem with keyboard)

  Is there a way I can troubleshoot what's the problem?

  Thank you

  Herbert

  Hey Buddy,

  As you can read in many other threads, you must update the BIOS to get rid of this problem.

  Toshiba has already published an article on what you need to do:

• My laptop is plugged in, but the battery won't charge

  Hello

  In the last two months, capability of my laptop to charge its battery has degraded.
  She went to a battery completely (100%), not being able to load beyond 98% and then 66% and 30%, and now finally, it says "0% availability (plugged in, charge)", but it never increases support.

  Thus, the laptop works when plugged into the charger, but does not illuminate when it is attached only on the battery.

  I rebooted the computer several times - first to stop the machine, then unplug it, remove the battery, press and hold the Start button for a minute, then put the battery back, plug the charger in and rebooting the machine.

  I installed updates for "Stacks" (IE. Microsoft AC adapter, compatible ACPI Microsoft control method battery and battery Composite Microsoft) in Device Manager.
  I also uninstalled the Microsoft ACPI complaint method stack and shutdown and restarted the laptop several times.

  Earlier I called Toshiba support and update the BIOS of 1.50 to 1.70, then restarted the computer, but yet again, the battery won't charge.

  I bought a new battery, which showed that it was fully charged when when I have attached to my laptop, but when exhausted 0% load, I got the same message as for the other battery: "0% availability (plugged in, load).

  I am really puzzled. If not, how can I try to increase the capacity of my laptop battery?

  In my opinion, old battery was certainly defective.
  Is your new original battery, Toshiba battery or any part of third-party product?

  When you start Notepad without battery and put in place when Windows is loaded does the problem persist?

• Satellite C660-108 disables unsuspected rotation fan while rose

  Hello

  I so laptop Toshiba Satellite C660-108 series.
  I don't really know what to do, laptop turns off by itself at any time, the fan starts to spin very strong and fair, he stops, when I try to turn it on again same thing occurs, time is random, sometimes it turns on for 10 seconds, sometimes for hours... Please help technicians in my town don't know what to do...

  Thank you
  Karolis.

  I m wondering really that technicians can not help you with this. I mean if they can that help can we do on this virtual path where we can only speculate what may be the problem.
  Did you contact Toshiba service provider or an independent PC company?

  Problem is that we do not know if your laptop turns off due to high temperatures and overheating of the CPU or there is another reason. At least what you can do about it? Nothing. All you can do is buy compressed air and try to clean it. What else can you do?

  What confuses me, is the fact that your laptop turns off after 10 seconds. This must be studied.

• Battery would not charge on Satellite M70 - 337

  I can run my laptop power outlet, but the battery won't charge more. It has been like this for awhile and I have not really looked into it again... but I think I have removed one of the programs that charge the battery a bit backward... stupid, I know. Again, I have toshiba power saver, but remember well he was a second load icon that used to come to the top in the lower right corner that I maybe thought that I didn't need. Any ideas how to get it back? Would appreciate any help. Thank you.

  Hello

  Don t worry, it should not usually depend on software if the battery is charging or not. But to go the way of course, I propose initially to re - insert the battery.
  Battery should practice generally anytime, no matter whether or not windows is loaded. So, if not, then you have a problem with the power.
  Try this re - insert and if that doesn't work, contact a technician (if you know someone) or a partner certified.
  It may be that you have a serious hardware problem.

  Hello

  Don't forget to turn off the computer - remove the a/c power - then remove the battery
  and check to see if any corrosion on the contacts. If so try to clean
  with a pencil eraser. Check with Dell Support and Forums for methods more.

  Check with Support from Dell, their online documentation, diagnostics, drivers, and ask
  Dell forums about known issues. Some manufacturer issued BIOS and other updates
  for help with battery problems.

  Here are some tips to help and troubleshoot battery issues.

  Old battery? Unplug the power to the computer - remove the battery and clean the contacts with a pencil
  eraser (do not use this, if your battery is fine slots - just clean up the edges of the knife which fit in)
  them and be careful). Batteries are old, or it could be a problem with the computer.
  Check with the support of the machine system, and many of them have online forums.

  New Lithium-Ion type battery usually last longer if you do not unload their less than 30%
  However on a laptop that not extend their life a lot. Best is to use the a/c adapter
  When this is possible.
