Equium A100-300 guard reboot

Hello

I have an equium A100-300 that reboots intermittently, I took on the radiator and the fan and clean them as well as the new fat heat, I reformatted hard drive. When I can get it up and running everything seems fine, but then it restarts itself, a few times continuously or intermittently.

Sometimes when I disconnect AC power that I can get it to boot with just the battery, and vice versa sometimes it starts not high at all, it seems as if there is a bad connection somewhere but I have checked everything and can't seem to find anything wrong.

Any response would be appreciated

Yvonne

  • Equium A100-338 display has stopped working

    Hello

    I have exactly the same problem on my Equium A100-338 loaded with Vista.
    The display has stopped working (he went to a poorly lit black screen) after I had rebooted my machine even if the computer and the hard drive seems to work Ok with the lights on. I tried the usual elimination of power and the battery and restart it tricks, but after initial success it has stopped working after a few weeks.

    Once I had the computer operation that I only closed it down in the mode 'sleep', and he continued to work for a month until that he should be released after a windows update. I then plugged an external display and use of the Fn + F5 key got the external display running.
    Low and behold, the screen of the laptop started working again as if it had been "energised".

    I took what the laptop screen was OK and that he would not need replacement.
    The laptop worked OK until it needed to restart another when the unrest started again. The screens are gray on the monitor and the laptop now.

    These problems seem to point to a flaw in the display driver or VGA card, have you received updates or suggestions?

  • Equium A100 - unable to boot from the bootable disc

    Equium A100-549

    My son s partner has a 2 year old Toshiba which has become slow over time. I had done a backup of the system with office installed etc using Acronis. Anyway, decided to rid running Acronis and recorded image. The program runs normally, and he falls down to a denial of service as the ready to restore screen. It is then with the cursor flashing as usual and then it crashes, and doesn't allow you to access the image.

    I am that it can be altered, so reinstalled Acronis. Make an Acronis boot disk to run the image, and he does not take into account the disk boots directly to the normal hard drive (IDE 0) still no joy. Then I tried the restore of laptops disc. In the BIOS, I said peripheral CD as everything first and also the restore disc says place in the drive and turn off.

    While it starts up press F12, which brings a menu allowing you to boot from the CD drive. I did, but it doesn t appear to look at the CD and just load windows from the HARD drive. I removed the CD for system devices and rebooted. He found and added the new device to herself and asked to reset. Still no joy!

    Scanned with Norton, but still not good. Norton removal. The result is the same. Able to read the CD and also write to it as well. Diagnosis Toshibas ran on the unit and everything seems ok with it.

    Tried to make a bootable flash stick on floppy, but it is ignored, well specified the amorçage using other devices.
    Basically, it seems that I can t get it to watch prior CD onto the HARD drive.

    Flashing the BIOS would heal it? -Registry error causes this?

    Y at - it everywhere where I can talk to someone from Toshiba about this?

    Any info / help much appreciated

    Hello Nick

    Put the delivered device DVD recovery DVD and turn on the laptop. Press the C button and keep it pressed for a few seconds. This will force the DVD player to read the DVD, and I hope that you will be able to use the DVD of recovery for the installation of the OS.

    If possible, test it with some other bootable CD installations. Please post the results.

  • Equium A100 - 02L - overheating/closing

    Hi people

    My Equium A100 02 L overheating guard girls / closing. The fan under it is obstructed by dust, etc.. I have removed some of them by blowing and poking with a fine wire. How can I remove the fan to give it a good clean? I know that I could use compressed air and try this breakup of the external grids, but this cannot be enough?

    any help diagrams / video link help would be great.

    see you soon

    Hello

    > I know I could use compressed air and try this breakup of the external grids, but this cannot be enough?

    Please, believe me it is enough to clean with compressed air to blow dust out. You can also read here of * Toshiba Technical Support *.

    It is not good idea you have to disassemble the laptop to reach the fan.

  • Rattling Equium A100-007

    I have an Equium A100-007 (there don't seem to be many positions directly related to this model) that I bought in April 2007. I'm running Ubuntu 7.10, which normally works very well. But, sometimes, I'm a clock strange clicking sound coming under the keyboard near the upper right speaker, when this happens, the system freezes and the only way I can back to work is to turn it off with the switch.

    I have not found something strange in the system logs and my sessions of firefox (and others) restorable after reboot without problem. It happens more or less at random, but is perhaps more likely when I download something, or watch a dvd, but it seems not directly related to have many applications running. It's happened a couple of times a week lately (but I have my laptop on almost all day every day), even if it has occurred previously. The temp runs between 45 - 51º C... I think it's a little warmer than before.

    I can't find anything on this problem in any thread. And I don't know if it's a hardware or OS problem.
    I would be very grateful for any advice on troubleshooting or resolution of this problem.

    It is not easy to say what the problem may be here on this forum, we can only speculate on the possible reasons for this. Try to do some tests to see what this trigger occurs. Try to play MP3 and see if the click comes from speaker directly (without optical drive running).

    Also try DVD movie playback, but without the sound to see if this clicking noise has something to do with optical drive running. Sorry, but it's really not easy to say what can be the problem. You can also ask for professional help and contact the nearest authorized service.

  • USB 2.0 Bluetooth DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED - Equium A100-147

    Hi all!!!

    I have posted b4 about my problems of BT, but still no further forward.

    I have a 2.0 usb toggle universl BT, my last worked well until it broke.

    Since I had xp pro installed, but my USB does not recognize my rocking do not even have a pop up? any ideas.

    When I plug it 3 fast Dong

    Unplug and made 2 Dong

    I tried to install the drivers usb, but nothing.

    do my head now... Please someone help me resolve this issue!

    As far I know Equium A100-147 doesn t support the internal BT module and so if it was not equipped with the BT Toshiba stack.

    If you use an external 3rd party module BT, then you should check if there are drivers designed specially for this external BT dongle.

    Also, check if the BT dongle would be recognized in the Device Manager.
    If there is no dongle BT listed in the list of devices, then remove all controllers and hubs of UBS in the list and restart the device.
    After rebooting again Win XP should initialize the USB ports again and then you try to plug the dongle BT again.

    Good luck

  • Equium A100-027 - speaker works intermittently

    Hello

    Has just developed a problem after my laptop Equium A100 - 027 for only two years.

    Speakers began to intermittently fail. They worked last Thursday and then for a short time Friday. rebooting when I started the PC this morning but have stopped working this afternoon.

    When I play a video (e.g. YouTube) there is no volume at all and yet when I open the volume mixer I see audio visibly displayed.

    Any ideas on what the fix should be?

    Thank you

    Hello!

    First of all, I would say you should test the helmet on the laptop. So you can determine if the problem is hardware related (internal speakers) or related software.

    And have you checked for yellow exclamation marks Device Manager?

    In addition, you should try to update the audio driver. You can find it on the Toshiba site:

    Moreover, what operating system you have?

    Good bye

  • Information about the life of the battery of Equium A100-306?

    Hello!
    I have a Toshiba Equium A100-306 & am pleased with it.
    Of course, I want to protect my investment & having been, in the past, concerned about battery 'memory', I was happy to find that this machine works with a battery lithium-ion - & everywhere I look I see words to the effect that:

    "There is no memory and no regular bike not needed to extend the life of the battery.

    I also found: a lithium-ion battery provides 300-500 charge/discharge cycles. The battery prefers a partial rather than complete discharge. Frequent full discharges should be avoided when possible. Instead, charge the battery more often or use a larger battery. There is no memory problem when unexpected expenses. »

    Except, that is, Toshiba (citing the manual) say: "at least once a month, run the computer on battery power until the battery is completely discharged, then discharge the battery."
    Then, they suggest "once a week" to ensure maximum capacity.
    You will understand why I am confused? I would really appreciate someone stating the above.
    Thanks for your time. Cheers, Peter.

    Hello

    Perhaps they have not properly updated their textbooks? I Don t know, but is the only thing I can tell you, that new technologies in mobile systems such as yours are very modern and I think toshiba had a cool technology into their machines, so that systems of remain "without worry".

    I suggest you read this article on the type battery that is in your machine so that you can understand the best technology:

    Hope I could give you an idea...

  • Equium A100 Win XP PSAABE - Sound Jittery & slow start / running

    Equium A100
    PSAABE
    Windows XP

    Help please.

    I had a recurring injury that have begun to appear immediately after a Windows update Auto + reboot.
    Stutters sound on the PC (on any application) and is very nervous and the PC starts and runs very slowly.
    Anti-Virus Protection of Norton Protection Auto turns red (not sure of how it is important).

    Apparently, this American a not uncommon problem, but alas, I still have to find a thread that solves it.

    The way I used to work around the problem was to do a restore to an earlier date - which seemed to fix the problem for a few weeks.
    The problem started the summer and one for an update around October time, I found a restore wouldn't simply clear the problem.

    I have to adopted many solutions/suggestions as possible - sorting on the start-up procedure (MSCONFIG), the temptation of power, completely caught Norton off the coast (not), topped up audio drivers, re-flashed the bios...

    However, I am convinced the problem is with windows - when the PC starts I get really nervous sound on the windows welcome jingle - it comes before anything else does - looks like something is in the running.

    The PC was fine before that, I ran all the checks hardware/memory and all seem to work well.

    Any help gratefully received.

    Thank you

    Very well!!! The great work mate!

  • Equium A100-338: wireless NIC endangered - suddenly disconnects

    I have a Toshiba Equium A100-338 running Windows Vista. I bought this in February and everything worked well. But for a few weeks now my wireless guard card disappear from my laptop.

    It works fine for awhile (today, for example) and I can browse the internet, all as usual. But all of a sudden it just disconnects, then tells me that there are no available wireless networks.

    When I checked the Device Manager I see that once this happened that my network wireless adapter simply disappeared - it does not appear in Device Manager at all--almost as if he has uninstalled randomly. Sometimes, restarted the laptop I can reuse my wireless, and sometimes I can't.

    I tried to reinstall the drivers and update them, but it didn't seem to do anything. My network card is an Intel PRO 3945abg.

    Please help me! I've looked everywhere for a solution or others who have had the same problem, but am unable to find anything.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    I also noticed several threads and messages to have reported connectivity problems with wireless Intel PRO 3945abg network card. Unfortunately, I think that it s is not easy to say what the problem is or why it happens to me there could be a problem between the drivers (software) Intel and Microsoft Vista.
    I put t think the material causes of connection interruptions.

    I studied a little more on the Intel page and found this site:
    http://support.Intel.com/support/wireless/WLAN/sb/CS-023579.htm

    You can check it and probably you will find a new driver version or a patch
    Do you use a connection Intel Pro Set WLan utility? No, then I recommend this test tool and use it for the WLan configuration.

    PS: Take a look at this page from Toshiba:

    Can someone advise?

    Thanks in advance

    I should try the following steps:

    First, you must remove the drive from the Device Manager and restart the laptop. After you restart the operating system should recognize the new device (ODD) again.

    Then, open the registry and delete the upper and lower filters of the key values:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    Then reboot again.

    Once these procedures please try again if the player works!

  • Equium A100-147: can not play games becauce slow DVD player

    Hello

    I have a laptop Equium A100-147. I tried many games on my laptop which should conform to the specifications required for example battlefield 2, however, these games does not work and I didn't know why. I then realized that all the games I tried were all on 4 DVD-ROM drive demanding x, and the specifications I provided with my laptop did not specify what kind of DVD player, I had another super multi layer or something.

    It is while I tried the games that were demanding CD-ROM which all worked fine, I then tried a game that was 2 x DVD ROM demanding that worked apart from a small problem with models of characters not displayed, so I took back defective. Then I tried a 1 x DVD-ROM game that worked perfectly.

    Today, I decided to get my DVD specifications, where I found that my laptop should read 8 x DVD - ROM drives.
    So my question is, is my defective DVD player for not playing more than 1 x DVD - ROM games? And can I contact Toshiba or my provider for repair or replacement or my problem would be something else?

    Thank you, Josh

    Hello

    As far as I know the laptop was delivered with the drive UJ - 841S and the drive supports 8 x DVD-ROM.
    Of course, there must be something wrong if the drive cannot read DVD-ROM media at full speed. The middle is not supported or the drive malfunctions

    What you can do is search for the update of the firmware. Many laptops come with the same drive. See the categories of driver and, possibly, there is a new update of the firmware.

    You can also try to remove the physical drive from the laptop and reboot the device without the drive. Then turn off the appliance, install the drive again and the boot upward.
    The laptop must initialize the firmware again and maybe this will help

    But it seems you notebook is not very old and the warranty is valid. If you need to contact the ASP in your country for more details and possibly for disc replacement

  • No sound on Equium A100-027 using Vista

    Hello
    Sorry if this has been answered before, but I couldn't find an answer.
    My Equium A100 - 027 (PSAAQ) claims that the audio device is properly installed and works OK, but I can't get any sound from the speakers.

    I tried the latest sound card drivers from this site (and live RealTek) but without success.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you.

    Hello

    The laptop uses a Realtek ALC861 audio chip.
    You need to install the realtek High Definition Audio Codecs on the site!

    The old driver should be removed first. Remove the sound from the Device Manager, and then after reboot again to install the new driver High Definition Audio Codecs!

    By the way; the DD Realtek Audio Manager should be found in the control panel.
    Check if the volume control has been set to a higher level!
