• Equium L10-142 battery life

  I had the above for a few months now and have understood the battery does not last very long at all.
  I used to charge for a long time when I arrived at the comp, and I unloaded first uses. I also periodically run the battery and fully charged. It seems only to display the battery in about 2 hours to full charge, but in reality lasts just more than half of this time.
  is this his agreement for the model?
  is there something I can do to increase the battery life?

  I don't use the mobile model very often but can do in the future if you need a solution to this problem.

  any help would be appreciated

  Hello

  your battery life is certainly too short. If this was done from the beginning, I think that you have a defective battery and needs to be replaced.

  A note: remove the battery, if you work on the current and it didn't need to be charged. This ensures that the battery no longer works.

  Good bye

• Equium L10-300 - battery failure

  Hello

  Can someone tell me if the battery isn't on the laptop Equium L10-300 it will not feed with the lead/charger pluged?

  Hello

  First of al you will get a few suggestions here in the forum if you want to be 100% sure which part is defective or malfunctions, you must contact a technician for laptop and it could check the hardware.

  Now my opinion; If the laptop lights even if the AC adapter is plugged in, then it has nothing to do with s battery but with the internal parts like for example electronic power supply on the motherboard.

  If the battery is faulty, you should always be able to use the laptop connected to the power adapter. Right?

  So I think that your problem is not related to the battery I m not sure what could be wrong, but first the adapter sector and RAM check if both parties would be ok then there must be another serious problem that I suggested above maybe motherboard is affected

• Re: Equium A200-1V0: Vista won't load - system restore does not

  Toshiba Equium A200-1V0, purchased January ' 08
  Vista Home Premium

  Upgrade office 2007, rebooted fine, saved all the files. I went looking for vista security updates & Office including. Net3.0 - pc crashed during installation. F8 to repair pc & system restore to front office installed. everything seemed well & rebooted ok so I have backed up all critical files.

  reinstalled office 2007 & vista hanging on the required reboot.

  Try to load in safe mode & vista hangs at crcdisk.sys. It was suggested to remove all pcmcia & 1394 drivers, but the switches/s/p do not work in command prompt so I can't be sure enough to find them all to delete or rename.

  F8 for pc repair & while the menu appears, it is very slow to get there.
  Startup Repair detects no problem, System Restore won't work, so assuming that restore lost points (there were a few elders before the one I went to). Command prompt will run.

  Toshiba has provided a system restore disc, but crashes after language selection. It was suggested that the disk was duff, so I downloaded the ISO to a disk of vista without the extras toshiba restore & that said it is loading & then sits right on the blue/green screen of vista.

  I have a basic family official OEM of Vista editing copy for a new machine, I do build, so tried to boot from a full installation of windows (without formatitng) - this also hangs on the blue/green screen of vista. This is my first to face with a laptop without a correct installation disc, so if I format & reinstall the will I lose the recovery partition?

  Any other ideas of what to try?

  Hello

  I think that it s nothing wrong with the software, but with the hardware
  If the reinstallation of Vista is not possible then this could be caused by a hardware problem
  I can only suggest on the malfunction of HARD, RAM disk. Everything is possible

  If I you would be then I would format the whole HARD drive I would be to delete all partitions and would try to reinstall the operating system from the recovery CD

  If it is not possible, then you should ask the ASP in your country for a control from laptop s!

  Good luck

• Equium L10-142: no sound after system restore

  Hi there I got a Toshiba Equium laptop since May / June ' 05 (the model on the bottom is EL10-142, so I guess that its a L10?) Never had a problem with it until it completely crashed at Christmas. A friend who is a computer enthusiast has got completely restored back to factory settings by using his Toshiba A60 Back Up Disk (the software provided with it is not found) and downloading the drivers from the Web from Toshiba site.

  Now, he works very well except one thing. There is no sound.

  I tried all suggestions from the Microsoft Assistant help regarding no sound, ensuring that the FN Esc key had not accidentally pressed, the Volume Module in the control panel was all upturned and not cut, ANY - but to no avail.

  There are a few drivers who must always be installed (did not really a clue where to get them going on the site of Toshiba does not give me and his work and do everything I need OK so Im not bothered) so I though maybe that was the problem, but oddly when I went into the thing of drivers Diagnostics He said that the Realtek AC97 driver has been installed and working properly.

  Help!

  I don't see what there is to do to fix this and it was definatley caused by thte system restore, as his was not a problem before the great crash.

  Any advice you have would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  E.

  Wait a minute; you said that your friend used the recovery CD Toshiba for the A60 Equium L10on!
  I m not surprised that noise does not appear. You cannot use a form of another laptop recovery CD!

  If you haven t the recovery CD right you need to order or you will install the operating system from the Microsoft Windows CD and then you download the drivers from the Toshiba driver page:

• Satellite C650D - battery won't load + click left questions

  Hey.

  My laptop has essentially two issues right now. The minor is that the left button of the mouse sometimes does not work, but the more pressing issue is that the battery charge more. The thing works when plugged in but it just displays as "plugged in, not charging." After trying the only troubleshooting software I found, I can only assume it's a hardware problem.

  Here, my laptop is out of warranty now. If these defects would require the machine to pull out or not? I'm just trying to establish costs in terms of level of service, it will.

  Thanks for reading!

  I also think that there is a hardware problem (ESF).
  Try please to start computer laptop with AC only (removed battery) power and wait until Windows has finished loading. Put the battery inside and check if the same thing will happen again. Please let us know exactly what is happening.

  I put t know if you use the laptop with battery power. If this isn't the case, it is not so important.
  I have old A300 and my battery is not recognized correctly, but I n t care about it because I use it on the desktop with power current only.

• Equium M50 - the battery won't charge

  Hi, I need some advice on a problem of load on my PC.

  Battery does not charge and the level indicator shows a constant 5%.
  The machine is about 15 months old and does she not get hard usage, probably an average of 5 to 10 hours per week. Usually, it is powered by the sector, so the battery tends to be kept filled to the top.
  Before I go and replace the battery, y at - it no diagnosis, I can do as a user?

  Looking forward to a response.

  Thank you very much
  Steve

  Hello

  No, I think Don t that it is meaningless to make a diagnosis because it sounds like a hardware related issue and I think that it would be preferable to bring your machine to a service partner chartered for a checkup of material, or probably an exchange of defective components.

• Equium L10-142 - unable to connect to the Internet

  Laptop does not connect to the internet. Have tried 3 ways:

  (i) WIFI - WIFI is clicked. Laptop also can't see other my neighbours networks (my network is OK because may fix another pc WIFI-where this post on the forum!).
  (ii) by network cable - can sometimes become to attach to the wired network (although couldn't this morning) but it will bring up all of the Web pages.
  (iii) external wired modem broadband provided by the ISP. This will not work either. It will recognize the modem, but doesn't bring to the top of the Web pages when I go into Internet Explorer.

  Also cannot access Belkin Modem/Router to administer, even by simply putting in the IP address in the bar using everything above Internet address.
  Laptop running Windows XP with SP2. Have not done everything I can think of to wear this. Laptop works very well to recover documents Word etc and make a backup.

  Hello

  Have you updated the WLAN and LAN driver on your laptop? Check the Toshiba site for an update:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

  In addition, you should check the TCP/IP for LAN and WLAN settings. If your router supports DHCP, you must set this in the TCP/IP settings.

  You should try to update the firmware of the router you can find on the site of the factory.
  If you go to the menu of the router, you see if the router has an internet connection to the ISP?

  Good bye

• I can't turn on the switch WLAN on ON Equium L10 - 142.

  Help, please.

  After installing a new hard drive on my laptop girls (an old died), I can not turn the WLAN with the switch.

  All drivers were installed and the Device Manager indicates that the card works properly.

  The BIOS has WLAN set to enabled.

  I think that it maybe a physical problem with the switch, is there a way to bypass the switch?

  FN + F8 is not a function on this model.

  What exactly do you mean you can t turn on?
  Can you assign the WLAN switch on or it crashes to the off position?

  In network connections, you can also disable WLAN. Maybe there is this option disabled.

• Equium L10: Problem with the main battery and battery RTC

  Hello

  I have the Toshiba Equium L10 and it is about 14 months old and I have problems with the battery and how much time it takes after a full charge. I also have problems with the RTC battery and an ERROR 0271: check date and time settings message when I turn on the laptop.

  Regarding the battery, I can fully charge it upward in about 3 hours, but when I start to use it, apparently in the last few hours around one and a half or so and then it needs to be recharged. I can have down for about 40 minutes and then turn it off and come back later or in a day or two. How long should I expect from a fully charged battery?

  About the batttery RTC, it really becomes a pain and I only started to get the message of the ERROR 0271 start-up, in recent weeks. I can charge the battery pack and then leave for a few days, but when I turn it on, I get the message ERROR 0271 on the date and time incorrect. Surely after a full charge, the RTC battery should last longer than a few days?

  The manual says that if the RTC battery is exhausted or becomes weak, you must charge the battery of the CCF for 24 hours, in a different part of this manual indicates between 24 and 48 hours, but how can load you for long when the sections concerning the charging battery pack status after charging the battery you unplug the power adapter because leaving connected will shorten the life expectancy of the Battery Pack. So, how we can charge the battery of the CCF for 24 to 48 hours if we shouldn't leave the AC adapter plugged in once the battery is charged - which is nearly three hours. Suggestions about these problems would be appreciated.

  Besides we all know that it is easy to change the CMOS/RTC battery in your desktop base unit, but is it easy to change in a Toshiba Equium L10?

  Concerning

  Brave0

  Hi Brave0,

  The normal recommendation for the CMOS (RTC) battery is to leave the laptop connected to the power supply at least 12 hours when the main battery is fully charged. The charging circuit is going to hijack the current to the load automatically RTC battery and no current will be forwarded to your main battery.

  Recommendation do not leave the power adapter is plugged in the main battery is fully charged is really only applicable to older laptops that used no batteries Li - ion and therefore they had to be completely discharged before recharging to avoid any effect 'memory' of the battery.

  With modern Li-ion batteries, it is quite safe to leave the battery when fully charged and still power the laptop from the AC adapter. The charging circuit will pass all the battery charge if it is fully charged.

  Kind regards

• Equium L20 battery does not load

  I have an Equium L20 what battery does not charge. The Windows Powermanagment says he is in charge, but the percentage increases ever, I tried different batteries with the same symptom as a result.
  Battery LED is orange glowing as if his load but no matter how long I leave it on charge, percentage does not change. Windows detects the battery as well with all the correct information... I tried to remove the battery, to no avail. .
  Is it a software or a hardware problem?

  Hello

  I also believe that it is hardware problem. There must be some problem with electronic power electronic board. Particular component? This component is placed on the motherboard, and I don't really know if you can exchange it separately.

• Equium L10-273 kept switching between battery and power

  Hello

  I saw a similar post here and I was wondering if anyone could tell me if they have had this problem sorted? My Equium L10-273 kept switching between battery and power all others second, which made it impossible to type, it's got worse and worse. I thought it was a problem with the power supply, but when I removed the battery from the laptop is ok running of the adapter.

  He kept also make a noise of hissing/crackling growing fan region, which stopped when I removed the AC adapter. The adapter was unusually hot, and the fan area became too hot to the touch. This stopped now, I removed the battery, so I want to know is what someone has solved this problem by replacing the battery or it should be returned?

  This laptop is less than 2 years old, but apart from his one year warranty.

  Hello

  According to the description of your problem, I think there is a problem of electronic power supply. Sorry but there is not a universal solution, and I recommend you contact the service authorized in your country. Explain the situation and see what they say.
