  • Life/changing the battery for V570

    Hello

    I bought my laptop a year ago and never got more than a couple hours my battery. I bought a battery backup and it's even worse maybe (an hour?). I've seen where some talked about resetting or to recalibrate the battery and I'm not sure how to do on the 570. If not, anyone know where I can get a long battery life for this laptop?

    I run Windows 7.

    Thank you

    Hi Wirehead,

    to reset please first remove the battery and charge it again to make sure that it is firmly connected.

    Charge the battery to 100% full, then use your V570 on battery only until 10 to 15% batt power is left.

    Stop then restart and immediately press the F2 key and hold until you see the first screen of the BIOS.

    Now let V570 slowed down until the battery is empty and the laptop turns off by itself.

    This will create a reference of empty battery for the control circuits.

    Plug then the charger for a few hours, then start and make sure you fully 100% of charge batt.

    Then again run the laptop on battery only and I hope that you will get 2-3 hours of the lamp

    until the low battery warning appears.

  • Changing the battery to power AC on laptop

    Hello

    If my laptop is running on battery power, it is correct to connect the AC adapter / CC computer constantly?

    Thank you.

    Hello:

    Yes, it is, but you must plug the end of the cord that goes first in the PC, and then connect the plug to a wall outlet.

    I don't always do it, but this is the recommended method.

  • When I change the battery on a power outlet, Firefox is empty, I close firefox, the "do you want to close" box is empty, too.

    I can't change current alternative to battery without incident. When I change the battery on a power outlet, Firefox blinks several times then turns off. To close the browser, I click on the 'X', which fortunately remains, and that the box "you want to close" is empty also. I hit enter and Firefox closes. I reopen and select restore previous... and I can continue. Just something I've ever known, do not know how to fix it. Sometimes, if I reduce the browser (""-"") at the top right before plugging in my diet, I can work around this problem. Sometimes he waits until I have maximize the browser, and again, it flashes and turns off anyway.

    Hello numberonejason, this is perhaps a problem with hardware acceleration. try updating your graphic driver, or in the case where this does not resolve the problem, disable hardware acceleration in firefox > options > advanced > General.

  • Replacing the battery for Satellite NB10T-A-103

    Hi all

    Y at - there no replacement battery (compatible maybe?) with a higher capacity (> 2100mAh) for the computer portable satellite nb10t-a-103? the original battery only works for 2 hours.

    Thank you.

    Unfortunately, I found only a single compatible battery for your laptop model and it's battery with the PA5170U-1BRS part number.

    To be honest, 2 hours on power battery isn't so bad. If you want to use a little longer power profile change advanced power settings.

  • How to replace battery for RTC for Satellite M70-122?

    I have a portable Satellite M70-122 and it sews there is a problem with the battery RTC (BIOS) that he loses all the settings. I took it for the Department of service here in Thessaloniki in Greece and they told me the battery is stuck to the main Board and I have to buy a new laptop instead.

    Does anyone has an idea on how to change the battery of the CCF (BIOS)?

    Hello

    In many cases (also for the M70 Sat) battery RTC is soldered on the motherboard. In this case it cannot be replaced

    The RTC battery provides the power to keep the current date, time and other configuration information in memory, while the computer is turned off. The RTC battery is charged by the adapter or the main battery while the computer is on.
    So theoretically if the RTC battery is empty, you could load it again to connect the AC adapter and execution of the laptop for about 24 hours.

    Hello

    Laptops today are designed to switch to the battery and drain a little and
    Re-load. This keeps the successful battery and helps to prolong its useful
    life.

    Both my Toshiba will be the battery once a week and 80% drain
    and then reload. Of course once they have re-charged they workpieces then on
    A/c power.

    If the laptop does not back the the a/c, then there may be a problem with
    the charger, charge the cell phone circuit, or the battery.

  • Possible to remove the rechargeable battery (battery) for a long time?

    I have laptop Satellite U940. Is it possible to remove the rechargeable battery, for example, for several months, while I use the laptop with external power only? Is - harmful to the battery?

    When I'm at home, I usually use the laptop with external power supply only. I rarely need to the rechargeable battery.

    Of course, it is possible and you can do it, but I really put t know if it's so important. Long time ago, that it has a meaning, but today, when the laptop uses the latest battery technology something like this is unnecessary.

    I have old Satellite P200 and he is 5 years old. I ve never removed battery and even now I can use the laptop almost 2 hours on battery power (depends on the supply and usage parameters).

    My advice is to use your laptop with battery and from time to time it is empty. These circles are good for the life of the battery.
