Equium A210 - Coke in the keyboard

Hi everyone;

I just bought an Equium A210 - 171; but buy accident, I spilled Coke on the keyboard. I tried to clean up, even simple buttons, it works but all the buttons are always so sticky, hard disliked the original more.

Someone knows how to fix this problem or where to buy a new keyboard for it?

Thank you very much

Hello

The problem is that coke contains a lot of sugar and I really don't think that you can clean it in the bathtub. ;)
The replacement is the best solution.

  • Question the button of Windows Hotstart - Equium A210

    Can someone enlighten me on the 6 multimedia keys above the keyboard of my laptop Equium A210? I already had from another portable non-Toshiba which had a similar set up. In an engine off the coast of the State, if I pressed the multimedia button, windows media Center started without having to start the full operating system.

    With my satellite notebook, if I press the multimedia keys, media center application or the application of internet explorer opens but only after a full system startup. Is there anyway that my satellite can be changed so that when I press the media button - only the media Center starts and not whatever!

    Thank you

    This is right. The controls buttons Toshiba Launches the Windows media player or other applications like IE once Windows has finished loading.

    Like some other Toshiba Qosmio series laptops or another series is delivered and equipped with the Qosmio player or Express Media Player.
    These players can be looked at separately, without having to start Notepad in Windows operating system.

    But your Equium doesn t takes care of the players.

    The CD/DVD drive is listed in Device Manager? You see an error code?
    If the drive is listed in Device Manager, you should try to remove it, and then restart the laptop.

    Try to load the default settings in the BIOS.

    Have you tried to remove the upper and lower filters by yourself? Here is the solution from Microsoft:

  • Problem with the capacity of the battery on Equium A210

    I bought my Equium A210 in January 2008. He had a cracking of the 2.5hours autonomy until about a week there (like coincidentally about the time that the BIOS has been updated by alert Toshiba Tempo). It is now only a charge for about 1 hour and 15 minutes.

    I have always followed the instructions in the manual on works on battery, then in charge, do not leave it on area etc. Can someone tell me what to do - is the battery covered by a warranty, etc., and who should I contact about this.

    Hello

    Generally the duration of battery life depends on the use of the laptop. If you run applications of high performance such as games, DVD movies, graphics applications the battery power faster discharge.

    It seems very strange that the laptop needs more energy after that the BIOS updated.
    However, if you think that there is a problem with your battery then contact ASP in your country for a control

  • Equium A210-1as turns off during the Bios flash

    Hello group,

    My computer laptop girls off for a flash bios because of blocked fan (dog hairs dust etc.) and its fried bios chip.
    I think that there is a partition on the Bios chip which can upgrade the bios in a critical state of flash using combinations of keys.

    I tried all of this and have a laptop dead yet.
    I contacted someone on the net that sells preloaded Bios chips and instructions to replace them, but I must first of all identify the chip on the card.
    Is there any reading that can identify it for me on a toshiba Equium A210-1as... psafje-005005ks

    Thanks for any help Paul G...

    Hi mate

    Usually it s is not necessary to replace the BIOS ROM chip on the motherboard.
    In most cases, the ROM module has to be reflashed again.
    It seems that the module ROM was not properly flashed and the process interrupted
    The technician of the ASP can reflash the module using a disc of the BIOS crisis.

    I recommend you to get in touch with the guys from the ASP in your country and ask reflash BIOSES.

    Good luck

  • Equium A210-1AS: Touchpad problem - the mouse becomes unusable

    Hello

    I have problems with the touchpad of my laptop Equium A210-1AS.
    After some time of use of the mouse becomes unusable and just starts bouncing around the screen and becomes uncontrollable.

    The only solution then is to unplug the laptop and turn the power off, re start the touchpad works again.

    I use Windows Vista and downloaded the latest touchpad drivers.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    See you soon
    Widdy1961

    This problem very strange s.
    Could you please tell me if this problem occurs after you reinstall the OS from the Toshiba Recovery CD?
    I read on several forums of Vista that some Microsoft Vista updates may have a bad influence on the touchpad driver
    Therefore, it would be very interesting to know if this problem appears immediately after the use of the recovery CD.

  • Equium L10-300 - how to replace the keyboard

    I recently got a Toshiba Equium L10-300 and it has serious issues of keyboard.

    Some buttons do different things they are asked (for example. The letter M is going to be transformed into letters NM or the right arrow will turn into a huge space).

    The enter/return key does not work all together and that's all I want to work really (want to format and start over).

    I tried to remove the keyboard, but he can't seem to drag out (is there an easy way out without breaking everything?).

    Any help or advice on this would be much appreciated.

    Hello

    The keyboard is fixed with screws.
    You need to remove these screws to remove the keyboard from the laptop.

    As far as I know there is a small plastic above the F1 - F12 buttons cover.
    You must remove this cover to gain access to the screws.

    After removing the screws you may carefully lift the keyboard.
    But note; the keyboard is connected to the motherboard with a flat cable. Be careful and don't use force.

  • Equium L-20: the keyboard randomly do not type

    I have an L-20 Equium, just bought it and every so often that missing characters while typing, these are random, it isn t as if some keys are sticking can cross and type the alphabet and all 2 or 3 times it will run out of letters or characters on as if I n t you press the keys also the space bar can fail from time to time.

    It would be a lack of keyboard or software, it s kind of intrigued me and almost at the point of return it for a replacement.
    During this short message he missed 4 letters, had to check and fill in the blanks

    Hello

    Well, I read a few topics on similar problems in this forum and I think that it s is not a problem of keyboard player. In my view there s something wrong with the hardware of the keyboard or with the connection of the cable.
    I think the best way is to contact the ASP for the detailed information. If the warranty is valid, all replacements are performed free of charge.

  • Withdrawal of the keyboard on Equium M50

    Hey people

    Hope one of you can help out me. I'm looking to upgrade the memory on the Equium M50 - 164 I and am stuck in the removal of the keyboard. I've updated the memory in the expansion to 1 GB port and all is well. I now want to spend another memory location 1 additional GB. I checked the types of speeds of memory etc... and have the correct memory, however, I can't for the life of figure me out how to remove the keyboard without breaking clips and plastic!

    Any help or get detailed instructions on the removal of the keyboard would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    Have you found that one slot at the bottom of the device memory or why you want to remove the keyboard?

    I m not 100% sure but in my opinion the two slots should be placed at the bottom of the unit and the removal of the keyboard is not necessary.

    Anyway, the Equium M50 is unknown to me but I think that the keyboard was fixed by 2 screws above the keyboard. If you want to remove the screws to remove first the cover plastic thin above the keyboard.
    Then you should be able to set the keyboard but do not forget that you have also disconnected the ribbon cable that connects the keyboard to the motherboard.

  • How can I clean the keyboard on Satellite A210-127?

    After a week of use for non computer keys on my keyboard "cvbn_" became sticky (but still working)? What I need to replace the keyboard, or I can clean it by myself? Please tell me * how can I under key *? Do I have to remove all the computer or the buttons are removable?

    Due to the non - using sticky keys. Very strange! I was three weeks on holiday and none of the keys on the keyboard are sticky.
    Anyway, unique key can be disassembled and if they are sticky because of the separation of coke inside or something similar I don't think you can clean it properly.
    Want you can do is to remove the plastic cover and watch what happens with the little mechanism under the lid. Place again put it in the right of the cover place and push down, but gently. You will hear a click and the cover should be in place again. You can remove this cover for each unique key.

    Check it out!

  • Question about cleaning the keyboard of an Equium A60

    Hello

    I recently managed to outflank cola on the keyboard of an Equium A60 and the keys are sticking rather annoying. Nothing else has been affected by the oil spill. Is there a way to clean the keys on these machines, such as by popping the key cover off? I am unwilling to put too much force to see if this method will not work because they don't seem like the type who's going to jump off and I don't want to cause any real damage (or rather, not more damage). As far as I remember, the period of guarantee in addition to the machine, so I prefer to take a solution that I can do myself rather than send in a (probably) expensive 'official' job. Any advice is welcome.

    Thank you
    Kemp

    Hello

    sounds very good. How do you know that only the keyboard has been affected? Do you have some view of x rays? :)

    I suggest you to bring the product to a technician because if once some fluid more so deeply touched a laptop, then you have a big problem.
    I can't give you a few tips to clean your keyboard because it s not only of clothes that can be lifted in a tube with some oxy-clean.

    I really suggest you to connect with someone who is familiar with this kind of computer system.

  • Question about the power of the battery on Equium A210-1AS

    Hello...

    the battery on my Equium A210-1as life is supposed to be around 2 and a half hour but it s more in 20 minutes.
    No idea why?

    That sounds like a bad battery.
    I think that Windows displays a fully charged battery or not loading stops at XX %?

    If your laptop is still under warranty, go to a local ASP and allow your battery to change.

    If your computer laptop doesn t have guaranteed, an ASP may also make a bid for a new battery. This part doesn't have to be so expensive.
