Equium A60 - beeps at start

When under tension over an Equium A60, I get a long beep (3-4 seconds) and he then turns off; no error on the screen and no sign of activity.
I'm assuming that there is a message error and probably serious enough, but no idea what it means.

What does a single long beep mean?
Be it on the mains or battery power, or with memory removed makes no difference.

Thank you

I guess that there is a hardware problem on your motherboard.
A long beep is displayed because the laptop can not pass the POST (power on self-test) and, therefore, the machine doesn't start.

Unfortunately, it's not easy to say what could be wrong with your laptop
In your case, each unique material part should be checked; RAM, CPU, motherboard, etc.
But I don't think that you have all the material resources useful and enough technical experience in this regard.

In my opinion you have only one option, and it is ASP.
The authorized service provider may check the laptop and can run diagnostics tests

I wish you good luck

  • Equium A60 will not start

    Hi, I am despartely needing help with my A60 equium that won't start. When you turn the button lights up, fan and starting, but then in a few seconds the cutting power. I tried different sources of energy, also just by using ac power and battery just all produce the same results. I had installed a memory chip a few months back and thought it might be that, but when I took it off the laptop has always been the problem.

    Is there that anyone may be able to help me with this problem? Thank you

    Hi Michael,

    The first thing that happens when your, press on the power button on your laptop, it's that the CMOS chip (which contains your BIOS) through a pre-deignated POST (Power On Self Test) process that verifies the functions of the material of base components after what the BIOS will be charged which will lead in turn to the operating system itself being started.

    If a failure or a problem occurs during POST and then power on the sequence stops (usually after a series of beeps are emitted that are coded to help the diagnostic process. The actual beep codes are specific to the manufacturer of the CMOS/BIOS chip.

    If you receive no all audible sounds, then it is likely that the problem is very early in the POST process and may indicate a problem with your main card or your electronic internal.

    You can try to remove and and reinstall devices such as RAM memory modules, hard drive, optical drive, etc to see if this corrects the situation, but if not then you will need to take the device to authorized, Service partner who has the diagnostic equipment needed to perform accurate control.

    Kind regards

    Everything goes well until I updated the bios. Machine crashed and now I can't restart. Press the power button and the machine will start for 3-4 seconds and then stops.

  • Equium A60 has recently started to overheat

    My Equium A60 has recently begun more heating really bad. It's at the stage where I can not install windows XP on it without him turning off during the installation of precession.

    Anyone know what could cause it to fire so quickly?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Especially the laptop overheats because the cooling module doesn t cool unique pieces in the right way.
    Fans do not twist full implementation because of the dust and debris inside the laptop.
    After a long time working, it s advisable to clean the cooling modules.

    How?
    Well, the simplest method is a use of the vacuum cleaner. But be careful

    If it helps the laptop must be checked by a technician.
    The technician can renew the thermal paste between the CPU and the cooling module.
    Important to take heat from the CPU thermal paste.

    Last but not least do not forget that there is enough free space around the laptop.
    The free space is important for air circulation correctly

    Hello!

    In my view, this could be a problem with the drive HARD or Windows.

    First of all, I would like to check the HARD disk:

    With the Drive Fitness Test, you can test your HARD drive. Download the CD image, burn it to a CD and boot from it. You can then the HARD drive.
    On the same site is a user's guide if you want to know more.

    If the HARD drive has no error I would reinstall Windows with the recovery because you disk as no access in safe mode.

    I ran and it opened, returned to the laptop and the screen is blank, a blue ring around the power button is on, but no display.

    I left it for a period of time see if it would to restart or something, but nothing has happened, it would not be the button turn off so I unplugged the power and removed the battery.

    To again turn on the laptop, it only stays on for about 3 seconds then turns off again.
    I get the beep code: short break, Long, short break, beep, beep beep, then it turns off.
    The caps lock and numlock keys are turned on.
    The DVD drive light blinks.

    But other than that, no display etc.
    Ive tried the battery leaving aside for awhile.

    Anyone have any ideas why flash bios toshiba own this would cause? Also what can I do about it? in any case to recover the bios etc via a recovery mode?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Well, unfortunately for me it looks like a hardware failure.
    Maybe the motherboard is broken.
    These problems may occur if you use a bad BIOS or the incorrect BIOS update procedure.

  • Equium A60 does not start correctly

    Hey,.
    I was working on my laptop and it froze, so I restarted, but it froze again.
    When it restarts again the laptop attempted a System Check, but to try to initialize steps 3 > (newspaper?) it happened extremely slow so I restarted it.

    This time, the laptop not boot but produces a blank screen showing:
    "For (x) Realtek RTL8139 810 x PCI Fast Ethernet Controller v 2.13 /8130/ (020326) PXE - E61 Media Test fails, check the cables." PXE-MOF-leave PXE ROM.

    However, when I am sometimes inclined to my laptop, it starts, but slowly?
    I test the University, but I don't understand what to do; I took it to our technicians, and they don't know what to do. Can anyone help please?

    Hello Joseph

    I assume that the HARD drive is at the end of his life. Like written Marina trying to check if you have access to the HARD drive otherwise, I think you need to buy new HARD drive.

    Please let us know if you will find what is the problem.

    The problem is the following; in an attempt to start, I get an error message: "Load needed DLLs for kernel.

  • Problems on Equium A60 - Powerpack adapter beeps

    Can anyone help? A few days ago the Liteon Pack power supply / adapter for my Equium A60 (EA60-156) started beeping and my battery stopped charging! LED to indicate the connection plug is more lights and my battery is dying slowly.

    If anyone has had this problem before or know what happened. This is the adapter or the laptop that broke?

    I plugged adapter Satalite Pro L20 a friend to my Equium and the network LED lights or, even if two adapters are 19V and provided by Toshiba! This suggests to me that the internal battery can be ruined?

    I can't find all of the resources on the web to help solve this problem!

    Thank you

    Hi Mike,.

    It is unlikely to be a problem with your internal battery. Your A60 should work quite happy to power even with the battery removed. The fact that you do not get the power LED when you connect two charger shows that it is likely to be a problem with the socket on your A60 or with internal electronics that control functions AC (battery etc.).

    It would be a good idea to have the device controlled by your partner to the closest authorized Service to verify what is exactly the problem.

    Kind regards

  • Equium A60 starts on battery

    Hi people I need help if you can help.

    I have an Equium A60 laptop and when I press the button when the laptop is running out of its battery, it does not start, but when I plug in the charger and press it starts very well.
    Thought the battery was dead, but when he starts it says the battery is fully charged and it works fine without the charger plugged in for the duration, what it says on the battery monitoring software.
    basically the on off button works fine when the charger is plugged in but has no effect when running off the battery voltage.

    Would really appreciate some help on this one, if you can imagine all the solutions

    Thank you

    Hello

    In my opinion there is no one-size-fits-all solution for such problems. You can try to remove the battery to put a little time inside and test again.

    Hi, I have to do a factory reset on my Equium A60, I put the cd in but cannot get it started the recovery, some can help me please? Thanks in advance

    Hi EPAs

    Turn recovery media in the CD/DVD drive and disappears. Press the power button and hold the C button. This means the unit choose CD/DVD drive as the first boot device.

    Otherwise, you can change the boot priority in the BIOS settings and set the CD/DVD device as the first.

  • Equium A60-173 PSA67E does not start

    I don't have a model Equium: Equium A60-173 (PSA67E-00700C8J) that will not start.

    It tries to start hard drive turns, the fan starts, the dvd drive light flashes, the hard disk light flashes and then he died.

    Battery life is very good, charger/power supply is fine.
    Lights on the front shows the unit is on and the battery is being charged, they all light green.

    I removed everything, left power and removed the battery for an hour, but it still will power not on.

    Any ideas?

    It looks like a faulty motherboard, but it is not easy to say.

    You have already removed the battery and the AC adapter and waited upward at the time, so you have to go to an ASP and ask a technician for help. They can check your laptop and exchanging parts.

    On the Toshiba site, you can search an ASP:

    Try to get the CD of Microsoft facilities. Talk with your friends. I'm sure that someone has this facilities of Windows XP Home edition CD. Check if you can do something by using the R option.

  • Equium A60-155 will not start

    Hello

    I have an Equium a60-155, that I knew that she works for a while, but recently I came with a new poroblem... my laptop guard turn off without notice and loses all power.

    The battery has been dead for some time and lasts about 5 seconds, but I've been using the AC adapter.

    Recently, she stops and even the LED lights for the power/battery adapter / is not on.

    At first I thought it was the fuse in the adapter which could have been blown so I replaced it, and it started to work again, but then after a few minutes, it stops and lost all power.

    I had this during the last days and I noticed that it regains power when I unplug the power adapter from the mains supply and remove the fuse and put it back in but his lasts only for a few minutes.

    I don't know if it is a hardware problem or I just need a new adapter. Someone at - it similar problems and can offer any adivce?

    Hello!

    What do you think that the laptop is overheating? I don't know, but if so the laptop would also immediately turn off m.
    So, try to clean the laptop with a jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans. So you don't have to disassemble the laptop.

    If it doesn't help it's really hard to say what the reason is for this maybe you should bring the laptop to an authorized service provider. Technicians can check the laptop.
