Equium A60 Notebook failure during the update of the BIOS

Hello
My computer crashed during the BIOS update recommended to treat the blue screen error message. I have turned it off completely and now it won't start at all. No lights turn on or it's like there is no power getting to the machine. My outlet does work as I have tested. This could mean my battery is dead? I tried to remove and clean the contacts or the update of the BIOS had something to do with it?

Thank you
Phil

Hi, Phil the A60 sometimes fails started well only very rarely that incidentally that happened to me once. To solve this problem requires the removal and re-sitting of the battery pack. However, in your case, it sounds very likely the BIOS update has failed unfortunately is a return trip to Toshiba.

  • Equium A60 screen failure, but the image is always visible

    Bought this laptop because it was supposed to be reliable. After 18 VERY basic use the screen started to black intermittently until 3 months ago, it failed completely. I now use an external flat screen (which was 4 years old! no problem).

    Now, I noticed that there is always a visible image on the screen of the A60. I was told that the backlight may need to be replaced or I read that perhaps the FL inverter? must be replaced.
    Can anyone suggest how to overcome this problem especially since I said a replacement screen may be as much as a new laptop. PS one of the buttons also has failed never happened before on any keyboard from the computer when it came out.

    Any help welcome. Davee

    Yes, you suggestion isn't bad. It would really be a FL. inverter error This small part is not very expensive and can be responsible for your problem.
    But I think that you should replace this part yourself t. I think that you have no much experience in this replacement and so you should ask the technician for assistance.

    I have problems to restart of Yosemite, after power failure during the new backup, and now HD is also blocked.

    I tried the holding of 'command-r' and 'option' to see if the problem can be resolved or try any boot from a boot disk, my old backup, USB function start - but after a slow long process it all just stops.

    There is software on my HD that I don't want to lose by simply reformatting the computer, because I am now in a different country, far from my house, which is another problem of the Apple Store, to reinstall my OS from Yosemite on the www.

    Shiva

    Hey Shiva,

    you are probably using the OS cartridge inherited on x86_64, RHEL or CentOS 6.3 or earlier.

    You must install both 32-bit libraries to do the data collection:

    • -glibc.i686
    • -nss - softokn.i686

    Why is this?

    By dΘfaut x86_64 installation does not seem to install libraries 32 bits, which prevents OSCart commissioning agents.

    Fortunately, OSCart agents are largely independent, and only the C 32-bit kernel libraries (and their dependencies) must be installed in order to get the agents running. Needed to support packages are available on the RedHat 6 32-bit installation DVD in the directory {{packages}}.

  • Power failure during the use of Vodafone 3 G card - Equium M50

    Can anyone help me please with a problem?

    I recently bought a laptop Equium M50 to help with the work. At the same time, I bought a Vodafone 3 G data for mail recovery card electronic remote access, etc. Whenever I plug the 3G card into the appropriate slot, the laptop turns off completely. Sometimes, I am able to get a connection to the net, but in the minute of connection, the power to the laptop shuts down.

    I returned the card 3G to be informed that it works very well, I got a verification of diagnosis by PC World and they inform me that there is no problem with the laptop
    I was advised to update the BIOS that I did and realized all of the Windows updates. The problem remains though.
    I would appreciate help with this query. Everyone knows a similar problem?

    Thank you very much
    Stu

    Hello

    I heard about some problem with card Vodafone and models of Toshiba laptops. The problem must be card and a cell phone. Please contact Vodafone and check if they have a few updates available.

    Toshiba can't do anything with it. In my opinion, if the laptop slot works well there is end of liability of the manufacturer for laptop.

    Good bye

  • Equium A60 - I'd like to update the RAM

    I have an Equium A60 with 256 MB of RAM - I would like to upgrade to as much RAM as possible

    Can anyone tell what is the maximum amount of RAM I can crack and what kind of RAM I need?

    Thank you...

    Hi guys

    I checked the manual and it says that you can use the 256 MB, 512 MB and 1 GB PC2100 or PC2700 RAM memory module can be improved up to 1.5 GB (1 GB + 512 MB) why?
    Because it has 512 MB internal memory, which is NOT removable!

    A module can be inserted into the slot that is placed at the bottom of the unit
    You should see a slot cover in the middle of the Panel which is fixed with a screw.
    Remove this screw and you would be abele to remove the cover of the location too.

    More details are mentioned in the user manual!

  • My Equium A60 not startup after Windows update

    Hello.
    I have an Equium A60 (PSA67E) about 1 years. There has been many problems with this one recently. First, there was the problem of overheating. The machine would heat up and stops by itself without any warning. I tried many options by keeping the cooling ports clear but dint help not at all.

    I've recently updated my bios version 1.90 such suggested by Toshiba. I always see overheating so far after the bios update.

    The most annoying is the display driver which is in this case a lack of mobility radeon ATI 7000. This would cause the display to become oversized and the resolution is very low. It would go without saying when I restart the machine.

    Last month, I reformatted the machine using the Toshiba Recovery CD. Everything went well until I am passed on the automatic update of windows. The first update coming, and I install and reboot the machine to let it function. He's fine. Comes the second update is installed and I have proceed to restart to allow functional upgrades, it does not start. The machine keeps starting over and over again without loading the OS. The screen is the typical Toshiba boot screen with the yellow light (charger) on the screen and after some time a blue screen is delivered for a short time (I am unable to read this error message it is said) and the machine starts start again. What can be the problem?

    I need to install windows XP SP2, and for this I need to go through the Windows Update. What can be the remedy and on the update of the available display driver. I tried, but it makes the situation worse.
    I used the recovery CD at least 20 times that there is no alternative. I tried to start in safe mode but din't work.

    Hi, Germain,.

    According to your description of the problem it doesn't seem to be anything wrong with what you have done so far, but I just want to clarify a few points.

    1. After installing the recovery CD system you install/activate your anti-virus software?

    2. are you using Windows Update in automatic mode or you manually select the update process?

    I recommend you to turn off automatic error (Advanced tab in system properties) reboot so the system will not attempt to restart when you get your blue error screen. This will allow you to see what error.

    Kind regards

  • Of crashes/blue Equium A60 laptop screen when the LAN cable is in?

    Hi all
    I have a laptop Toshiba Equium A60 which now extends for less than a year.
    I am running WinXp Sp2

    Yesterday, my laptop started to plant flashing a blue screen (not the time to see what he says that the computer reboots too quickly).

    I found that only apparently failed when the network cable is connected for example if I start the laptop, it will be put in service as usual, but when it starts to communicate with the network/router (I see glancing at blue screens in the lower Task Bar to the right), it crashes. I tried another port on the router but no luck.

    Is my network card: Realtek RTL8139/810 x Family Fast Ethernet NIC

    It works well in Safe mode and doesn't crash.

    I updated the driver but and it's always the same.

    I then decided to restore my laptop to factory/day via the Toshiba Recovery DVD.

    When it worked fine all day restored (had internet access via the network) until I clicked on: set up a home network or small business in the control panel. He crashed again in the same way. Now it will crash repeatedly like above.

    This could be a problem with my cable?
    Help, please... Any ideas?

    Thank you for the charges,
    Shay

    Hello

    If the network connection works fine, it is not necessary to set it up again. I guess there are conflicts and the unit freezes. In my opinion there is no problem with the hardware or with your cable with the network settings.

  • Equium A60: Can I put the graphics card?

    I have an equium A60 and want to know if I can update the graphics chip?

    Unfortunately, the upgrade of the graphics chip is not possible because the card mother available doesn't allow these updates. Usually, the graphics chip is soldered on the map and canoe to be deleted.

  • Failure during the upgrade to El captain

    Hello

    Trier just to run the El captain of my Mac Book Pro late 2008, 500GB, 4 GB upgrade Yosemity.

    After several attempts, I have to capitulate.

    The Message is that the absence during the installation and the options are retry and save the log file.

    Before the upgrade, it worked very well with all the problems.

    Have been looking for solutions and I do not know if the recovery online could help me!

    I don't have a lot of work put in Photo I am very interested with a recovey that saves my work...

    (Yes, I was to stupid to do a backup before the upgrade)

    Any chance of recovering the contents of my HD

    Allan continues

    This could be a missing file that had not resulted in anything until an update.  I had to save and clean install the operating system. I had a similar problem and take mine to the Apple Store to be fixed, it turns out was a broken HD support, who can apparently cause this problem.  You must back up either with Time Machine or external plug your hard drive to another computer and copy the files you want to save. (TimeCapsule is easier), then take it in to be looked at, they can run Diagnostics on the Apple Store.

    See you soon,.
