Equium A60 Power cutting in a few seconds

I have a laptop Toshiba A60, but recently, after a Windows crash with blue screen of death, I was unable to feed the unit upwards again. The first time, he reported a problem with a cable PXE and hung when I tried it again running and stopped. No screen, no MESSAGE, nothing. Now when I press the power button, it turns on for 2-3 secconds then turns off. Everyone you have suggestions for this problem?

Thank you very much

Hi Chris,

This type of behavior usually occurs due to overheating and an internal thermal trigger off the power to avoid damage to the unit. usually this will reset after a few minutes. The soultion long-term is to clean the heatsink CPU spreads debris (use a vacuum hose against the bars of suction air).

If the power LED flashes while there may be problems with the laptop itself and you will need to refer to an authorized Service partner to have checked out it.

The reference to a cable PXE would indicate that the unit had failed to find a bootable hard disk OS or a CD/diskette tried to boot from a connection to the local network. As the normal convention is to boot from a hard disk first, this may indicate a problem with your hard drive, but despite this, you should always be able to turn on the laptop and access the BIOS.

Kind regards

  • Equium A60 power supply insulation question

    My laptop recently failed a PAT to trial because of the continuity of the Earth. For background, it's a laptop bought UK but I am running an advance Australian 3-pin into the power adapter as I am in Australia.

    I saw somewhere on here that standard satellite UK does not connect through the Earth and I wonder if someone can confirm the preference for an official title, because I believe that this is the cause of the problem, but it doesn't seem to be, for example, a symbol 'double insulation' on diet, nor the manual referred to - the laptop works very well and I have no reason to suspect the power supply are faulty.

    So wonder if it actually has a pin plug 2 (UK power points need the same if taken earth it is not connected, Australian points are not).
    I really need to resolve this issue I need to use my laptop on the site, but can't until he gets that agreement and I do not want to get a new (OEM) power when I do not think the existing one is broken, so I need something to test guys and show them that it is a normal behavior...

    Of course, if this isn't normal behavior, I would be better to know now!

    Thank you

    I Don t think that the power supply is broken, and it doesn't really matter what the wall of the AC cable is connected from the regulated AC adapter voltage by itself and has it s own ground.

    Maybe the PAT test fails, but food is not broken.

  • Equium A60 power circuit failure

    The result of damage on the power connector, which has beaten the positive connection on the Board and left an intermittent contact, internal electric circuit has failed completely. No power to recharge the batteries, without being able to turn on the circuit. I have power to the P44DZ, which I guess is a switch in the solid state, but have not yet found information on this subject.
    Any input is greatly appreciated.
    S.

    Hello

    I think that it s very difficult to locate the fault on the motherboard if you have no experience and no additional info on the motherboard.
    I think you should take the laptop to the technician who has more experience.

    In my opinion it s dangerously to solder something on the Board if you n t know how to do.
    You could damage it more on the Board!

    Ask the guy to service for advice!

  • My Equium A60 to display driver

    Hey guys, I'm having a small problem.

    I got my Equium hung wireless and after a few seconds, the display enabled a mode really based pixelated, which would return to normal, if I rebooted... until I went back online. I tried all of the updates for ATI, but not joy.

    I decided (please don't tell me) to uninstall ATI as it seemed it was the video controller who did not like the wireless. Now, all is well with the wireless. no problem, but now of course I can't read DVDs, I really don't want to!

    I then tried to reinstall ATI from the recovery disk, but when I rebooted the computer to complete the installation, simply of restarts and does not start unless I choose the option to go to a previous configuration. I tried to install Windows and the Toshiba site, but again, no joy.

    .. then I kind of made a mess of things

    Could you give me help in reinstalling my display driver and how prevents conflict with the wireless?

    Thank you very much. I hope you had a good new year

    Mark

    Hallo Mark

    Maybe you don't read this, but in my opinion, you should preinstall your device with the original recovery media. I noticed that a lot of different things can have some negative influence on some strange questions like yours. It is not easy to find an appropriate solution.

    In my opinion, all that you have done is just, but if there is no successful backup your data and reinstall the unit. On this way OS will be clean preinstalled and I am sure that everything will work again at 100%.

    If the same issue occur after reinstalling of. Something wrong here.

    Good bye

  • First Cup last a few seconds of audio from P2 AVC-intra 50 clips

    Just installed first 5.5 (for mac) and updated to 5.5.2

    First time after the passage of the FCP user...

    Try to import images of P2 and think first is cutting the last few seconds of each clip audio.

    This occurs when previewing, but also after import.

    The files are copies directly to the P2 cards. I tried to import the Explorer and also via the import command.

    I know that the audio is there because I can preview them in FCP as well as in the P2 Viewer. This is ONLY first that does this.

    Some clips have just 2 seconds missing while some have missing 6 seconds. The problem is consistent as other projects turned to different dates I have this problem too!

    Notice to lovers?

    Just had a meeting yesterday and decided to shoot a video mode...

    Of course, these clips all import them perfectly.

    Conclusion...

    First has a bug when importing P2 AVC intra media turned into a clip mode.

    I will fill a bug report.

  • Equium A60-692 - no power and removing the HARD drive

    The power has gone on my A60-692, the adapter is ok but there is just no no LED on the laptop. I had to get replaced a few years ago so maybe it is related to that of the power connector.

    I took to a local repair place, he said, it would cost more to fix this, so I should really find it useful laptop only think about recover my data.

    Is it really so hard to fix these things?
    How hard is it to make the hard drive out, & how would then access down my data?

    Thank you
    Dave

    Hello

    > I took to a local repair place, he said, it would cost more to fix this, so I should really find it useful laptop only think about recover my data.
    I agree with the authorized service provider. My personal opinion is that it s a malfunction of the motherboard and it is a very expensive part. Besides, Equium A60 is pretty old model so it would be better buy you a new laptop and recover your data.

    > How difficult is it to make the hard drive out, & how would then access down my data?
    It of not difficult, but I m really wondering why you need access to these data. You don t have a backup? In my opinion the backup is the most important thing you need to do on a computer.
    Anyway, normally on the underside of your laptop there is a HARD drive cover which is guaranteed by one or two screws. You must remove this cover and then you can see the HARD drive and you're able to remove it.
    Also buy an external HARD drive enclosure where you can install the HARD drive. Then you can connect it to another computer to back up your data. ;)

  • Equium A60-157 will not power

    Hi people!

    Could someone offer a bit of expertise and tell me whether or not the series Equium A60 - 157 has a center pin in its socket? I need to know that my laptop doesn't have one and it will not power! I'm deeply frustrated because I paid at the time £999 and it doesn't work!

    I have a feeling that the PIN has cracked and is now part of my dc adapter but I need to be sure before I get it fixed!

    Also if this is the case anyone Kow how much it may cost to do fix an indicative maybe!

    Cheers for your help!

    Nick

    Hi Nick,

    Yes, I think the A60 use an outlet that has a central pin. The CAP at the end of the head of the AC must have a central hole. You can find that the spindle broke and is now stuck in the plug on the power cord. This is not a rare event on the series of satellites, laptops.

    The bad is more Servicers will simply replace the motherboard (where the socket is together) rather than perform a repair to the component level. It is obviously a costly option for you, but is probably more faster/easier for the repairman.

    I have, in the past, tried unsuccessfully to find a source for the plug for my A30 (just in case) but I only managed to find a supplier who could provide a component of second hand provided by a junk motherboard. :-(

    Kind regards

  • Equium A60 - defective power cable

    The power supply for my laptop began to divide and although I have wrapped in insulating the split tape, it still does more. Annoyingly, the separation is the wire that connects the computer (which is attached to the battery), so I think they're pretty difficult/expensive to purchase.

    Anyone know where I could get a new track that doesn't cost the Earth?

    Thank you very much!

    Hello

    they are not very expensive, this site-> http://www.pcupgrade.co.uk/productdetails.asp?ProductID=3146&categoryid=368 wants only 40 pounds for a such AC, so if you use "Google.com" and type 'Equium A60 Ac adapter', you will get many results on adapters CA / CC for Equium A60... :)

    Good luck

  • Equium A60-692-power - laptop gets no power

    Hey

    My Equium A60 - 692 has ceased all powered by the AC adapter (though I measured it and its give a good 19v). I noticed the end of the adapter (the end that goes into the laptop) is different from the normal ones. Rather than having a hole in the center that integrates a pic on the laptop, it's just got a piece of flat metal. Wondering that was normal and the problem is inside your computer laptop or if the latter has somehow broken and is stuck in the adapter. It looks like its supposed to be that way, but it seems a little weird...

    see you soon

    HELLO Rodders,

    I fear bad news. The flat piece of metal that you describe is the rear part of the central axis that broke inside the power jack on your laptop. It is quite a common phenomenon (check some other posts on these forums).

    Unfortunately, the solution to this problem is for your authorized Service partner nearest replace the motherboard (expensive!) unless you can find someone ready to weld in a new socket.

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

    Kind regards

  • Equium A60-199: question on the colors of the button power/powerlight

    I was wondering if someone could explain why the power button on my Equium A60-199 changed from its usual blue to a Pink/Purple mix, and also why usually green power light on the front of the laptop has changed to amber.

    Thank you.

    If the powerbutton is Pink/Purple and your amber powerlight, that means that your machine is in mode. This happens usually when the computer has been configured with a power that leaves your machine goes mode sleep after using only not in a period of time.

    Or you have vista and click on the button in the Startmenu which supposedly should stop the machine but rather switch to standby.

    That's all.

  • AL1716 screen turns black after a few seconds. If I turn the monitor power off & on again, it works - 2s

    The monitor worked fine for a few years, so is no longer under warranty. I was about to throw.

    Then the monitor I bought to replace, was damaged on the way to the group practice site.

    Now, I hope to fix the Acer monitor.

    When the computer starts, and a new screen loads, the monitor it shows for a few seconds. Once the computer on the desktop, if I turn off the monitor and turn it back on, it displays the desktop perfectly for a few seconds.

    The monitor I replaced it with also works very well with the computer. He collided with another device, when the car in front of me stops suddenly and there is a piece missing from the screen in the lower left corner. It looks like modern art in the lower part with some of them white and black and a few vertical lines and horizontal lines. I can continue to use it, since what I need lies in the upper part of the screen. I learned the keyboard command to shut down the computer. The windows key, followed by the right arrow, followed by the Enter key.

    I watched a few videos for repair of monitor on Youtube.

    It seems that the capacitors are the typical element which spoils first.

    So I guess I'll break the front off the monitor and see if the card has the capacitors top of the pop up. I can use capacitors with the same intensity of micro-Farouk and the voltage equal or better than the other monitor.

    I've recently learned step secret beginning of successful welding.

    You must have a clean tip.

    When you clean the tip of the soldering iron, it should have the appearance of copper. If weld does not stick to the point, it is not clean enough. I used a wet sandpaper dry and scoured it. They are sold with a protective coating that must be removed. If it is not removed it clogging the tip.

Finally, I restored to factory and spent the last 8 hours going through the update process.  It works fine and restart without problems until recently - I followed the instructions to reboot to perform an update, but he had served in the "shutting down" mode for almost an hour I did a firm hard down.  It took a few attempts so he could begin after that, and when I did I had a message on the svchost.exe and thought that might have something to with him... found a site that has a download that is supposed to fix errors and am curious if that is recommended or whether there is another solution or possible make my misfortunes.  The site is: http://www.exe-error-advisor.com/svchost-exe.  I don't know what's happening - the computer works very well when it turns - to be fair, I did also made an update of "HP Total Care Advisor" who has nothing and after I rebooted I could not make it work...

  • 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

    TAF

    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
