For Satellite M50 battery recall

Hey all,.

I have a laptop of Satellite M50 running Ubuntu 8.04 and this morning I got a message saying that my battery could be the subject of a recall. I went on the site, he noted, and he said that my cell phone was on the list, but my battery was not.

He also said that the page that I had been referred to as related to laptops sold in the States. This laptop was sold in Australia.

I wonder if I use the battery has been recalled as well and do not want to take the risk in charge $60 to be out of warranty. The battery number is PA3451U-1BAS.

Thanks in advance

There are links to the programs of the battery on the site of Toshiba Australia at www.isd.toshiba.com.au

  • Drivers XP for Satellite M50 - 130 PSM51E required

    Hello

    I think I may have made a big mistake.

    An elderly parent gave me his Toshiba Satellite to "clean". I just ahead and reinstalled XP Home on thinking that I could simply reinstall all drivers by downloading the Toshiba web site. (as I have done for other portable parents)

    XP Home installed using an existing drive and use the MS code on the label under the lap top.

    However, I am now very nervous because I can't find the drivers on the Toshiba web site for this product and I have a load of unknown/other devices in Audio/video/ethernet/mass storage device manager.

    I took a guess at the wireless driver and have wifi work so I'm online and you have activated Windows.

    Can someone point me in the right direction for all drivers please.

    Model is
    Satellite M50-130 PSM51E

    Thank you very much

  • How to get the disc of recovery for Satellite M50 161

    I bought a new Toshiba Satellite M50 161 4 years ago and its been great until recently when he developed serious problems.
    I need a recovery disc or the disc of the original for XP software but none of this was supplied with it.

    How can I get these disks now?

    > I need a recovery disc or the disc of the original for XP software but none of this has been provided with it.
    I'm in doubt about it. According to the specifications of the laptop Satellite M50 161 comes with brackets to follow:
    -Recovery media (CD or DVD)
    -Express Media Player
    -Additional software CD
    -Microsoft Works Suite

    All the old models of laptops come with recovery CD. I have some old Satellite m70 and still have original valuation facilities Toshiba DVD.

    Anyway, you can try to contact nearest Toshiba authorized maintainer and ask for help. To be honest I don't think you will get for this older model laptop. For the installation of the OS, you can also use Microsoft installations CD.

    When the laptop is off, new battery, ca, red light stays on for about an hour then it continually flashes. This occurs at the same time. After loading it lights up to insert ac, then when windows loading, undetected bat.
    When I put my original battery in turns without ac and battery and correct information shows.

    I returned the 1st battery, once I reported a 2nd defective, he sent me a 3rd. The dealer has a very positive feedback and good comment, I recently received an email from the merchant who quote

  • Graph and Sounddrivers for Satellite M50 180 and Windows 7

    Something does not exist, or are there drivers to media, which works on Windows 7

    Best regards from the Germany

    papa99

    This old model of laptop is not designed and not supported for Win7, so it won't be easy to find the right drivers for this good old classic.
    Only alternative drivers are hardware manufacturer, but I don't think old material will be supported for the new operating system.

    How old is your M50? It must be about 4 years old.

  • Satellite M50 - charges the battery only when stopped

    My Satellite M50 battery only when stopped. Does this mean that when I work I'm still running on batteries, which of course carry out completely after 1 to 2 hours. Then I shut down the computer and it started charging again (orange led), and after a few hours, I still have a 100% charged battery.

    Of course, this means that the computer is not available. Until a few weeks ago it used to have the same problem if I disconnected the power plug then reconnected it: the battery needed to dump then to 0%, even if the power is connected, but now the problem is constant.

    I've updated to the latest version of the BIOS, I could find and even completely reinstall windows from the recovery disks, but the problem is still there. The computer is a Toshiba Satellite M50 - 126 model PSM51E, the BIOS is Phoenix BIOS v2.10

    Is it possible that the BIOS is damaged of some sort? I tried to reinstall V2.10 but he told me that I have the same version and it will not be installed.

    Hi lartech,.

    You can recharge the battery if you get into the BIOS and made the battery charging icon light?
    Are you using the original Toshiba AC/DC adapter and battery?

    In the worst case, it s a malfunction of the motherboard, and you have done what you can do: BIOS update and to install Windows from the recovery disc. If this doesn't help s a bad hardware work.

  • Satellite M50 - wireless card disappeared

    Hey.

    Prolly newb question, but I just can't understand this. I can't find my WIRELESS card, my XP does not recognize it. I think I need some kind of driver for it, but I already tried to install several, including the one on this page. Problem is probably, I don't know what model of wireless card has my satellite.

    I tried google, but the jungle brought me here :)
    Thank you.

    Hello!

    What Satellite M50 laptop are you excactly?
    From Toshiba Web site shows only an Intel driver for Satellite M50 (PSM50E and PSM51E) and to Satellite M50 (PSM53E) a driver Atheros.
    Then choose your model and download the driver.

    An update of the BIOS might also solve the problem, but in your case I would try first upgrading the driver.

    Good bye

  • Re: Satellite M50: what is the difference between PA3451U-1BAS or PA3451U-1BRS battery?

    I have a Satellite M50 and I'm trying to find a replacement battery.

    The drum part # PA3451U-1BAS is original, but I can't seem to find that. I can find the same number with a suffix of BRS. The volts / amps etc. appear identical. The pictures make it look the same.

    What is the difference?
    It fit? Will it work?

    Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you

    Hello

    As much as I know there is no difference between the two batteries.
    These are the 8-cell 4400mAh battery and should be compatible with Satellite M50.

    Maybe the PA3451U-1BAS is abandoned and is no longer available.

  • Replacement battery for Satellite Pro A10

    Hello
    I'm trying to find a replacement battery for Satellite Pro A10, PA3284U-1BRS, 10.8 v original battery, 3600 MAH. A couple of merchants said that it is no longer available and has been replaced by PA3285U-1BRS, the amperage is a little higher at 4400 MAH, but declared voltage is now 11.1 VOLTS. Is this normal, or are they trying to just me to pawn off the coast with something that is really not compatible with the specifications of the original part. I can't find the part for the moment available on the Toshiba site, seems to have been the only way to get a true replacement who would be sure to adapt. Battery wizards there know what would actually?

    Thank you.
