Equium L40-156 - problem with the battery or the charger?

Hi all, I'm new here and have a question about my laptop.

My laptop does not turn on when I play and hold the thread at the back of the laptop where it charges and I have to hold it in place while the laptop charge upwards and once I connected, is that after a matter of a few minutes (if there are that) it says low battery and stops.
Is it my battery in the laptop that has disappeared or is it the charger adapter?

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Hey,.

Of course it is not easy to say which is the reason why, but according to your announcement, there seems to be problem AC adapter.
I mean just start the laptop when you place the cable in place and if Windows starts up, it says low battery, so it s not charging but in the worst case, it could also be a malfunction of the motherboard.

So if you can get a new power adapter you should test. It s worth a try! ;)

    Hi, I want to install windows XP on my laptop. Is it possible to do? and where can I get drivers?

    Hello

    Of course, it is possible to install XP on this laptop.
    I checked the official website of Toshiba and found the Equium L40-156 belongs to the series of PSL49!
    This serial number is important for Xp compatible drivers from the European pilot of Toshiba page.

    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    On this page you can find a driver XP for you laptop package!

    The update of the BIOS is very important. If you want to use XP on this laptop Vista you must update the BIOS to version XP!
    Some features of Toshiba as FN keys could not work without the good BIOS!

  • Equium L40 - 156 wlan need driver

    Hello

    I recently had reinstall Vista on my laptop EQUIUM L40-156 but missing the drivers.
    In particular, the wireless network lan card driver (use another pc to connect to the internet!).

    Can someone point me in the right direction for the right drivers? As I have tried several drivers, but the operating system does not recognize any as being good.

    Any help is very appreciated.

    You will need drivers for Realtek RTL8187B on your laptop.

    Go to this page to download from Toshiba:

    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com (Support & downloads)

    And download the Realtek wlan drivers. Make sure you only select your laptop model and the operating system. I assume you are using the 32-bit version of Vista to the standard address.

  • Problem with the capacity of the battery on Equium A210

    I bought my Equium A210 in January 2008. He had a cracking of the 2.5hours autonomy until about a week there (like coincidentally about the time that the BIOS has been updated by alert Toshiba Tempo). It is now only a charge for about 1 hour and 15 minutes.

    I have always followed the instructions in the manual on works on battery, then in charge, do not leave it on area etc. Can someone tell me what to do - is the battery covered by a warranty, etc., and who should I contact about this.

    Hello

    Generally the duration of battery life depends on the use of the laptop. If you run applications of high performance such as games, DVD movies, graphics applications the battery power faster discharge.

    It seems very strange that the laptop needs more energy after that the BIOS updated.
    However, if you think that there is a problem with your battery then contact ASP in your country for a control

  • 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 L40-156: graphics card problem - error code 12 in Device Manager

    People of the night...

    Just got a family run Vista premium, Equium L40-156, everything is going well except a little problem with the display adapter (Mobile Intel 965).

    Tried the drivers that I had with the installer
    Tried the drivers from the toshiba download page
    Tried the drivers on the Microsoft Update site
    Tried the drivers from the website of intel

    All have the same problem, in Device Manager, it shows with an error (the pretty yellow triangle with the "!") with an error code 12 (the device cannot find enough free resources) even after a system resart.

    Switching view hidden devices displays a 2nd same device, but works correctly, but the two disappear if I try to delete either.
    Display settings do not display a connected device, DXDIAG had no idea either.

    Latest version of the BIOS installed, all other devices are very good and can not see an IO overlap anywhere

    Any suggestions, greatly appriciated

    Ta

    Hello

    I have studied a little bit and looked on the Microsoft page for some answers and found out what exactly means the error code 12.

    ------------------------------------
    + Error code 12 +.

    + This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system. (Code 12) +.

    + Two devices are assigned the same i/o ports, the same interrupt, or the same Direct memory access channel (whether through BIOS, the operating system, or a combination of both). This error message may also appear if the BIOS did not allocate enough resources to the device (for example, if a (USB) universal serial bus controller is not an interruption of the BIOS because of a corrupt MPS (Multiprocessor) system table). +
    -------------------------------------

    Well, what to say; usually this error message should not appear with the original Toshiba preinstalled operating system.
    I put t know if you have changed something or add an additional device, but it would be very interesting to know if the same error message appears after the reinstallation of the OS.
    You can use the Toshiba Recovery CD/DVD of restoration!

    All the drivers, the tools are already preinstalled on the recovery CD so the entire procedure will not take very long. about 10 min.

    Check this box and report if the same error is displayed on the laptop with the factory settings!

  • Problems with the battery drain on iPhone 6

    Hello! This is my first time posting but I had some problems lately with my iPhone while keeping a charge.

    So, this has started to happen a month ago (exactly one year after I bought my iPhone) and my battery drains just exponentially and evacuates it sometimes when I'm not using it and the internet is not on. For example I'll fully my phone until I fall asleep and I'll put it on airplane mode before going to sleep. By the time I wake up, the battery will be down to 60%. I do not use it during this time, I don't get notifications because all data and the internet is disabled. I do not understand why it is empty.

    Anyway, I've taken to the Apple store Genius bar twice now and they have not been able to fix it. They have tried to restore it... I did that before I went to the Apple store, but they decided to do it again and the second time the guy just told me to turn off all the background app refresh or anything I did but it we continue to attract.

    When I was at the Apple store, they also checked my battery and everything was normal. I got 100 below the number of average cycles since the age of my phone and the battery was in the green at 94%.

    I am really frustrated after two trips to the store person has managed to fix my phone and I have the impression that they will try to coax me to pay for something that won't fix my phone. Also if there is a problem with Apple hardware and nothing of what I've done so why should I pay for it when it started to happen at the level of the one-year mark. It's so boring, but if anyone else has had a similar situation for advice or assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Yes that is exactly what they are trying to avoid. As you explained that you have visited it there twice to attempt to solve this problem, they could have offered to replace your battery for $79 that with your current battery showing 94% of its original capacity, that would not have done much for you at all.

    Have you been having problems with the reception of your carrier recently, when all this started happening? Were you see 1 or 2 points of service when you used to see 3 or 4? When you have restored your iPhone, you restore it as a new iPhone or restore a backup top later? Just try to refine some possibilities for the continuous emission.

  • Problem with the software Modem on Satellite Pro L40

    I tried to set up a connection Dial-Up Networking on a Satellite Pro L40 running Vista and can't get the modem to talk to the modem from the ISP. The connection appears OK and then you can hear the modem dial, but when the ISP picks up there is a bit of yelling and then my modem abandons the connection and I get the standard vista connection failed box.

    Things I've tried:
    -latest drivers for the 2.1.77.0 modem (and the rest of the system) downloaded from Toshiba and installed OK
    -all the updates of windows installed
    -removal of the modem in the Manager of peripherals and re - install
    -suppression of the agrsmdel.exe and then re-install
    -try different cables to plug into the phone jack
    -several different ISPS and phone numbers
    -reduce the maximum speed of the connection
    -connection to the same ISP with my Satellite L10; works very well never have time!
    -using the windows to diagnose and repair the tool (set last resort!); says that the modem works fine and can not find a problem with the connection

    Is it possible that the update of the BIOS on the laptop would make a difference (currently v 1.60)? I did some research on Google and found messages on various forums, which suggests that the connection between the motherboard and the modem chip is a little doubtful for all the Agere Soft Modem; If the case is it something I can fix myself or I should go for warranty repair?

    Midders

    Hello

    I'm sure that there is no problem with your modem, but with the configuration or even s ISP modem. I recommend you to speak with the support of the ISP.

  • Equium L40-156 initialize problem

    I have an Equium L40-156. When I press the power button the power led lights up, but there seems to be no hard disk activity. I manually turn off by pressing the power button for several seconds, leave it for a few seconds and then press the power again button once it starts normally.

    Any ideas please?

    Hi mate,
    Have you recently updated your BIOS, installed a few more RAM / another HARD drive or software? Perhaps some update driver?

    Since when the error pops up? And you have always guaranteed on this subject?
    So, if so, then bring your machine to an authorized partner and let check your machine. Would be the best...

    My Toshiba laptop 3/4 years, has had problems with the battery. Battery does not charge properly and to start windows, the laptop down even when the battery is at 70%. Normal use without AC is not possible. The first 3 months, the laptop worked well with no battery problems.

    Maybe is the problem on the battery itself. Without a lot of discussion, I recommend you contact the Service partner in your country. I hope you will get free new battery due to valid warranty.
