Equium A300D died in mode high performance.

Hi I need some advice on my laptop.

It only works in power saving mode in the power options menu.
I thought it was due to overheating at first, but it works throughout the day when it's on standby under vista power option.

When I start it in the morning, and then select high performance or balanced in the power options menu it turns off within 2 minutes.

PLEASE HELP IT IS DRIVING ME CRAZY!

Kind regards

Hello

I think that the problem of overheating
The CPU and the GPU would go to high performance using high-performance power management settings and would create a dissipation of the heat, which would increase the temperature

You use the latest version of the BIOS?
Please check this!
Cooling modules are controlled by the BIOS maybe you need an update

  • How to do a clean install on my Equium A300D

    Hello

    I got an Equium A300D-13 x which runs vista Home premium. I bought it to PC world a few years ago. I want to sell it and I want to do a clean install to put it back to its original state. I removed all my data on an independent hard drive already. I read the virtual manual supplied and he said to start pc and press the F8 key to access the Advanced Boot Options menu and then do a repair or something? I'm sure it will be clear if I am still here! I've always been able to remember another high office I've owned to enter in safe mode using F8... This seems a little weird. Can someone please advise.

    I also had a 'local disc Q' appear in the MY COMPUTER section about two months ago. I don't know how it got there and I do not have the permission to access. I tried to change the owner of the file, but I'm not allowed? Can someone explain this please?

  • Re: Equium A300D - 13 X - boot problem

    Hello

    I can't initialize problem. Powers of phone on ok, with a few flashes of HARD drive as it tries to start. But no sounds other than the kick, fans have tried all the usual things like FN/F8 to enter safe mode, also cold start battery and network opens. Power button down for an all black screen minute etc etc, but still no screen or emits a signal. I suspect a power supply problem and have tried with different loader but no effect. Laptop is a 4 year old Toshiba Equium A300D - 13 X everything worked fine but I recently renewed keyboard, screen bezel, Mo media Ribbon, power/Ribbon button, Mo.

    I thought I might have left some cable detached so all reopened and checked, but everything is correctly fixed I think.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks Bob.

    Hello Bob

    It is not easy to be objective with this problem. On one side you have disassembled your laptop on your own and we don t know if everything was done correctly. I m also not technician and each laptop disassembly has been a success.

    I put t really know what to say. Try to talk with someone who can help you with this and check if everything is OK. Small error as causing electrical circuit can damage the electrical components of the motherboard. Try to check the display cable connection.

    Have you tried to connect the laptop to the TV and check if all come to this?

  • New battery is not detected on Equium A300D - 16 c

    Hello

    This is my first post on the site. I have a problem with a new battery on my Equium A300D - 16 c. (no battery detected)
    The original I got the computer died after two years of use, so I had to order a new one to replace. I received and he himself works very well, giving me a charge of 90 minutes. But the problem is that it isn't detected by the computer when I click on the power icon on the bottom bar of the screen, so I know how much time I have left with him. In addition, the orange light which indicates that the charge should go white whether full cost, mine just started orange flashing after awhile (what is when it is fully charged?).
    I got power to my computer a few minutes ago and he cut and I had to turn it back on, despite the battery in and it is complete free (as it has been in all day and the sector is since in periods of decent length).

    What can I do to fix this?
    Note that I'm not too good with computers, so anything can be better explain really, really just that I'm not the most skilled when it comes in this region.

  • Integrated microphone does not work do not on Equium A300D

    I have Toshiba Equium A300D-13 X with 32-bit vista, I can't bed in the microphone to work.
    All the speakers and the webcam seem to work and I tried to update the drivers from this site but nothing solves the problems of mic.

    Can you help me?

    Hello

    Why do you have to be sure that the internal MIC does not work?
    How did you test this?

    The internal mic belongs to the internal webcam.
    You can increase the volume of the mic in the webcam software settings.
    Start-> settings-> audio tab webcam software

    There, you must increase the volume of the microphone to the maximum.
    The Audio Device option should contain something like Microphone (Conexant High definition). Audio compressor-> no compression

  • Equium A300D - 13 X motherboard

    Hello. Hope that someone very competent would be able to help me with Equium A300D - 13 X.

    I'm trying to repair this laptop for a friend of mine. Her possession for a few years and so the warranty has expired a long time ago now. A few weeks ago his laptop had some 'smoke '. :-) Now it fuels not high at all. Using the multimeter I measured the voltage out of the power adapter and it was given breast range, so I guess it works well.

    I opened and stripped little this laptop, removed the motherboard and found the fault probably accurate. At least one, or even two simple components makes sautéed.

    I uploaded a few photos online on the following link if you could see it for yourself:
    http://www.elny-SL.com/elny/Misc/TOSHIBA_Equium_A300D-13X/index.htm

    Some people, I've talked about advised me to replace the motherboard of other little bit sell it and buy a new one. The cost of repair is at least as half of the total cost of this laptop on eBay, if not more. So since I have nothing much to lose I thought I could always take one of those routes later. First of all, I want to try to fix myself cheaply, I want to buy new spare parts, replacement of defective components and see what will happen.

    My problem is... to identify correctly the blown components and their value exact or approximated, possible replacement find - I thought that I could buy them in some electronic store or even the most famous sales at online auctions. :-)

    Could someone please tell me what is this Brown blown up 'tiny brick' marked as "PC105"? SMD capacitor, or resistance? How to know its value? What is the capacitor value/settings solid aluminium marked as 'PC106' which can also be blown up?

    Does anyone has this motherboard diagram or can direct me to it?

    All ideas are welcome. I suppose that neither I, nor the owner of the notebook (friend) are in a hurry now. I understand the chances of reviving this laptop are not so great, but there is nothing much to lose anyway.

    > Any ideas are welcome. I suppose that neither I, nor the owner of the notebook (friend) are in a hurry now. I understand the chances of reviving this laptop are not so great, but there is nothing much to lose anyway.

    I have no ideas how to check unique on the motherboard parts, because these diagnostic tests needs special tools that are available for the professional service points
    From my point of view, the motherboard is really hard to repair you need of specific e-skills.

    To be honest I think that it of better to sell the defective motherboard (ebay, etc) and buy a second hand cheap, a

  • Equium A300D - 13 X overheats and turns off by itself

    The laptop is only 14 months old the problem occurred for a while now and can be annoying.
    The time can varry on when the device is overheating then go off.

    I cleaned the unit to the compressed air to get rid of any dust.
    The fan works fine, the software is genuine.

    Can someone help thank you.

    > This seems to be a problem in the face of most of the people with an Equium a300d but not one that Toshiba is ready to own up to. I have the same problem with my machine, which is 15 months old
    It is a big nonsense!

    You will notice a question also on all series of laptop, any manufacturer!
    Your laptop is 15 months old! More than 2 years!
    Did you clean the fans, cooling grids, etc. during this period?
    I imagine that you didn t.

    You know that laptop still overheats if cooling modules are full of dust and debris, this prevents air circulation and temperature arises at a higher level!

    I clean my vents from time to time with the help of compressed air jet and guess what? It is useful!

  • Equium A300D - maybe my HARD drive is dead

    I bought my Equium A300D (I think it's the correct model anyway) of PC World in the year September last after the death of my old laptop on me (fried hard drive because of the processor cooling fan break).

    The old laptop, has produced some sounds strange whirring/screeching sometimes for a few months, but I'd rather foolishly ignored it thinking it was just a fan who wasn't quite to the right or something - in hindsight to make a good decision!

    My Equium was fine until I turned on this morning and found that he formulated the horrible familiar screeching/whirring sound and I turned off again pretty quickly.

    The screeching kicked almost immediately after, I had it working. Three times I tried to turn on the back, with the same result, and it's understandable, I am very worried about it and did not want to take the risk of leaving that he turned on for fear of causing more damage.

    Sick computers are never good news in the best of cases, but not at the moment that I went through a lengthy form filling and complex that I have loan on Wednesday. I'm completely it on a pdf version recordable of the form that took me three weeks to finish where I had got up to last night, and even if I use an online backup service, I can not restore files to a different computer without overwriting what is already there, so I'm a little panic. (Also, my Equium has a Vista OS, and my office, I'm currently is still on XP).

    Three questions:
    (1) makes a whirring/squeal noise as soon as it is lighted sound it could be another hard drive dying?
    (2) would be to take it to my local independent computer store (which tend to be able to make minor repairs and put new disks while you wait) rather than PC World voiding the warranty?

    I'm not sure what to do for the best, like whatever I do I need to do it quickly, because I have not long until I have to complete this form (and even if I have the online backup, rather stupidly I don't have an external backup of it), and even if I can get the fixed satellite quickly if it's the hard drive , it takes a number of days to download and restore online backup files, which is sometimes I have at the moment.

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    > 1) makes a whirring/squeal noise as soon as it is lighted sound it could be another dead hard drive?
    It's not impossible My HDD makes a completely dead before it too strange noise.
    It was a good idea that you have backup your data. In this case you could always recover the data if the HARD drive would really die.

    (> 2) take to my local independent computer store (which tend to be able to make minor repairs and put new disks while you wait) rather than PC World would invalidate the warranty?
    If you want to get the HARD drive replaced and want to use the warranty, then you should contact the ASP (certified partner) in your country.
    Qualified service technician can replace the defective hardware, a free game.

  • Equium A300D - 13 X: cannot open Amyuni Document Converter 2.10

    I have a Toshiba Equium A300D - 13 X on which I have installed the program of the family tree.
    When I open the program it tells me that it can't open Amyuni Document Converter 2.10 print driver in Kernel Mode.

    What this means I have to buy this PDF program or is there something else I can use.

    Hello

    First this issue has nothing do with your laptop but with a 3rd party application that you have installed on the laptop A300D.
    So I m wonder why you post here in the forum of Toshiba

    In any case I've google a little bit for more details on Amyuni PDF Converter and discovered that it is a tool that converts every windows document in PDF format.

    In case you I recommend you search in the web site for this application and to download and install the printer driver that belongs to this Amyuni PDF Converter software.

  • Equium A300D-13 x stucks on the installation screen

    Recently, I sent my laptop (Equium A300D-13 x) back to the Toshiba to fix because it was overheating and cutting.

    She came back today and when I turned it on I got the screen where I was asked if I wanted to go in safe mode or start Windows normally.
    Then it goes to a screen where it says, * complete the installation may take several minutes.

    Please do not interrupt or shut down the computer! *

    I waited all day today and I'm still stuck on this screen.

    Someone had the same problem? And if so, how can I solve this?

    Hello

    I've recovered my laptop several times and the installation always goes smoothly.
    But of course this installation problem could happen still and I think that you should just repeat this procedure.

    If you have n t Toshiba Recovery disk then try to recover the laptop using the recovery of HARD drive option.
    Just press F8 while turning on laptop.
    Then choose fix my computer. Then a new window will appear and you can select the new option called Toshiba HDD.

  • Slow buffering when shooting in burst mode high with my 7DMarkii... What is the fastest SD card?

    When shooting in burst mode high with my 7 D Mark ii, I do not get optimal performance... the buffer fills up fast and backup... while I can't take shots more... I disabled the quite high definition noise reduction... Usually, I only have an SD card in the camera. I do not use the other card slot... is it because I didn't have the fastest SD card... For those of you who shoot regularly 7 D Mark ii, make it a point to always shoot with a SAndisk SD 95 map... ? I'd get better performance if I used the slot for CF card or both?

    IRIS says:

    I'm shooting with a single card (SD), a Lexar pro 64 GB 150 MB/sec Class 10 and 3 inside the U (whatever that means), but I show a limit 16 popping up on my screen... so I do not understand... I'm shooting a low ISO... I have disabled noise reduction... I'm shooting a Standard picture style... I'm shooting RAW only... My battery is charged... Then why is it backup and buffering so often? I forgot something? is it's just that the CF card is faster? .... I doh't understand why I don't get the perfromance promised high 20 + something burst shots...

    First of all, Yes, CF cards are faster.

    Second, the number you see is the current buffer and does not include the write speed of your card.

    The only way to tell what your real brightness issue is therefore to test.
