• Toshiba Satellite L50 - A battery load but remains at 0%

  Hello!

  For the last two weeks, I had problems with the battery of my Satellite L50.-a. It remains at 0%, although it will load. If I remove the power adapter, the computer continues to operate for a period of time. Now, here's the odd part. If the laptop has been in charge for a while, it stops. If I remove the power adapter it will start again and show always is at 0%, but now it works for about 1.5 hours before the battery is actually empty.

  So I use my laptop without power until it stops, then I charge for a few hours and then it stops and we start over.

  Someone has an idea that I could do to fix this?

  I tried:

  • It loads from one day to the next without using the laptop
  • Several drivers update
  • Disconnect the battery, start with power supply adapter, stop and reconnect the battery

  Hello

  Have you found a solution? I have a similar problem and cannot run the laptop with the power connected.
  I have a warning message that the battery needs to be replaced and if I do that it does not start even if the replacement battery has been charged.

• How can I disable the battery on my Satellite L50 - B - 1 HM?

  Hi friends,

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L50 - B - 1 HM. In this model, the battery may not be withdrawn. I would like to know if I can turn off the battery in order to preserve the life of it.

  Please help me with this question. It is important for me :)

  Thanks in advance.

  Hi Marta

  Unfortunately, this option is not available and you can't do that. to be honest I understand, but imagine you have an important work on your machine and suddenly power is interrupted for any reason any (disabled battery). In this case, you could lose your work.

  In this case the battery is a kind of backup power.
  Another thing is that the batteries used on laptops of today are not the same that we had 15 years before.
  Don't think about it and have a fun with your machine. ;)

• My Satellite L50 - A - 16 Q turns off suddenly while on battery

  Hello guys and girls,

  I have a problem for some time that I don't really know how to solve.
  In November 2013, I bought in Poland, where I live, a nice TOSHIBA SATELLITE L50 - A Q - 16 (PSKJNE).
  On this computer, even if something is constantly causing me problems: * very often the power stops so that all of a sudden on battery *, even if the 'TOSHIBA PC health monitor' app that monitors the temperature of the processor, also shows no sign of criticality.

  However, there is something going wrong: thanks to this software, I noticed that whenever I unplug the charger, the fan speed is zero, apparently put the endangered cooling system. And I know in the manual that if the temperature of the processor reached a critical threshold, the system stops automatically.

  Anyway is to solve the problem to not stop suddenly, making me lose data then on the battery?
  Maybe turn on the speed of the fan, somehow, so that this mode?

  Thanks to everyone for your contribution, in advance.

  Kind regards

  Matteo

  If you unplug the AC adapter, the system will pass the plant (it depends on the configuration of power plan). Check the Windows power plan settings to see what configuration will be used in battery mode.

  This power plan can be configured and all the settings are located in the advanced power settings.
  I recommend you to check the mode of cooling and if necessary to use the same settings that are used in the power management when the laptop is connected to the power supply.

• Satellite L50 - B - 23d 9.20% battery wear level in one week

  A week ago, I bought a Toshiba SATELLITE L50-B-23d (part number: PSKTNE-00100YCE). I checked the level of the battery (PA5185U-1BRS) with 3 different software (AIDA64, Batterycare, CPUID HWmonitor) and they show the level of 9.20% battery wear. Yesterday, in fact it was 8.25%. Software AIDA64 reports also charge 10 cycles. Is it normal to 10 cycles = 9.20% wear level? You have no explanation, advice or it seems that the battery is defective in factory? I can always return the product to the seller.

  Thank you

  Hello

  Short answer: do not consider these values at a point too early.

  A: Please understand that the batteries are quite similar in their behavior. They are not normally ON or OFF, they are more or less responsible.
  This 'level of wear' is (currently) a pretty bad description of the values behind it.
  Level of wear is in fact simply a mathematical calculation based on internal values of the battery; rated capacity and capacity max.
  Nominal capacity is the amount of energy that the producer wrote in the firmware that the battery is supposed to be able to hold.
  Max capacity, what is actually possible to push in the battery.

  Remember that the battery is pretty similar - this to say that taking a bunch of packages of any shelf, you will get different results.
  They will of course be reasonable proximity of the indicated capacity, but may not be on the exact number.

  So something like "wear the level" is simply the difference between design and individual.

  Now, rushing ahead in time, you find that the maximum capacity will deteriorate. After months and years, it makes sense to talk about level of wear well.

  So, don't bother on this subject now. And no - 10 cycles will not be equal 9.20% wear indicator level, 20 percent, matching the level of wear 18.4%.
  This is not how these things work.

• Satellite L50 - B - 14 M completely dead - no power not on

  Hi all

  I am now the proud owner of a Toshiba Satellite L50 B 14 M, since a few days it serves not on at all. When it is pressed the button at the top right (even for al longer) nothing happens, not even a little noise or a flash of light. He remains completely dead and will not turn on at all. Haven't tried with adapter connected / not connected / without battery still no change. The laptop was not abandoned or in a hurry or anything strange I just pressed the power button to continue working on it.

  Tips / advice is much appreciated! Best regards, Jan

  Hello

  It's really not easy to say what may be wrong with that. Unplug the AC adapter / CC, remove the battery and press the power button for about 20 seconds. After doing this leave for a while and connect the power supply only.

  DC in / battery indicator lit?
  What happens when you press the button walk / stop? Is there a reaction?

• Satellite L50-A-111 - 0% battery power

  Hello.

  Today while playing a game my Toshiba Satellite L50-A-111 stops and when I turned it back on, I closed the game and on the desktop, I noticed that the battery was at 0%, I checked the AC and everything was connected and after one minute it off again. So after a few attempts, I noticed that the latter always follows this behavior:

  1. when I turn on it return _with HQ power on_, the battery is at 0% available (plugged in, does not support) and _it will stay 5-minutes_ and just before turns out it will change in (plugged in, load) for like 15 seconds and then turns off.

  2. at the time unaware of _it the "DC IN / battery indicator ' is white (indicates the AC adapter is connected and the)
  battery is fully charged.) 5 minutes and again for 15 seconds, it will change to amber (indicates the AC adapter is plugged in and the battery is being charged) and he repeats this behavior in the cycles of 5 minutes.

  3 and this is the most bizarre situation, when I turn it back _with ignore AC power, the battery is at 0% and it stays on until it's really discharge the battery (I only did once)

  What I ve try:
  change management the power to never turn off the power/sleep, did not.
  Uninstall "Microsoft compatible battery ACPI Control method" and install it again (did not work)

  I did not remove/replace the battery because I'm afraid of messed up, and I don't really know who will solve the problem.

  Do you know what the problem is or what I can do to keep after more than 5 minutes?

  Thank you in advance.

  Hmmmmmm... It is not easy to say what the problem is. I don't know if this can somehow help but try to reset your machine. How do models with main battery sets, which you can read on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB3C03JR0000R01.htm

  Problem is that these questions can be tested with additional drums on most of the models of laptop but unfortunately your machine has set the main battery. If the problem will always be there do not open your machine. What you can do is to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider in your country, to explain the situation and ask for help.

  Hello

  Can you please tell us what OS you are using?
  Do you use the preinstalled original Win8.1 64-bit, that you got with your machine?

  I mean the factory settings, everything should work fine, and I guess you don't l t notice this issue from day one.
  At this point I just can you suggest checking the properties of the mouse (touchpad) and make sure that everything is set correctly.

• Satellite L50-B-1 q 0 - removal battery question

  Hi, I bought the product Satellite L50-B-1 q 0.
  With astonishment, I found that * the battery is not removable *.
  I always knew that when you use a portable computer, you must remove the battery;
  Then, I wanted to know if this product has a new technology where the battery life is not affected by the use of the computer when it is connected to the power adapter.

  Thank you.

  > I always knew that when you use a portable computer, you must remove the battery;
  For a long time I use Toshiba portable computers, but I never read these tips in the documents of Toshiba I got new machines.
  I have never done this in the past and I never will in the future. From time to time, you can use your laptop with battery only and charge again.

  You are right. Your laptop battery can not be removed, but there is no reason to panic. Sink the battery and charge it at least once a month.

• Satellite L50 - B - 1 HM - how to replace the memory module?

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L50 B - 1 HM, product number: PSKTAE 072017CE. It has 8 GB of RAM but is expandable to 16 GB.

  My question is, should I buy a 8 GB memory module? (and I would add up to 16 GB).
  Or should I buy a 16 GB memory module to completely replace the memory of 8 GB?

  Memory 8 GB Toshba module I've found is the following: P000577360

  Thanks in advance

  Kind regards

  Hello

  Googling around, I found also specification for your model of laptop and if I understand it is just your machine can be upgraded up to 16 GB for you can use 2x8GB.

  Compatible 8 GB of RAM for your machine has PA5104U-1M8G part number.

  I n t have this model of laptop, so I put t know if there is coverage of RAM placed on the lower side of your laptop. If this isn't the case, RAM could be placed under the keyboard so RAM upgrade must be performed by the Toshiba service provider. Removal of material or to open the case of the laptop on your own is the warranty.

  Be careful about this.

• Satellite L50-B-1NL - how to disable tap-to-click on the touchpad?

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L50-B-1NL running on Windows 8.1. I am trying to turn off the tap to click on the touchpad, option I think it's way of sensitive causes increased frustration.

  I searched on Google and it says there is an option to turn of the touchpad, but when I go in my option to disable settings, it is the only one missing? Is there a way I can turn off the tap to click as it makes me mental.

  If I understand you well want to disable touchpad, right.
  You can do this using the combination of keys FN + F5 or F5 key only.

  Please open the operating manuals and page 58. It you and find information very useful on the use of the F-keys.

• Satellite L50 - A - 1 7 does not start

  A month or 2 ago, I had the same problem. I feel that I can go anywhere with my problem so here is my last hope.

  So first of all, there is a moment that I was using my laptop Toshiba L50 - has - 1 7 during the evening. I put on the mode 'sleep', lay on the ground and go to sleep. The next morning, I decided to use my laptop again, but it wouldn't start. The single LED light that worked was that it was the battery being fed or whatever. Done quite some research and I wanted to disconnect the battery of my laptop but I discovered that the battery is supposed to stay connected. Instead, there is a switch force or something. I just have to go in there with a needle, click and hold the button for 30 - seconds-ish and it would be identical to unload my PC or something else.

  I tried, but nothing happ-ERA and I contacted the online store where I ordered it to help. They have not really give any useful information and I was getting enough. They do not have help me to think about the problem, they just kept saying that I had to return it. I asked how long it would take and if I lose files. They said there is a chance of losing files and it would take more than 3 weeks. I can't really lose my cell phone for more than 5 days! It's quite a disaster because I need every day my laptop.

  In the morning, after that I decided to retry the stop switch to force thingy. I held the Start button and after a 10 - ish seconds there once again. All current progress was saved, and it was as if nothing had happ-ERA since then. I still had on the browsers and file op - en. Quite a miracle and a lot of luck involved. I don't like not how, but this worked so I stopped looking for answers. A day later, the same thing happ-ERA again. But this time, I just closed and ERP - ERA my laptop. This triggered somehow it of sleepmode and it worked again. So that's what I kept the past month. Some days, that I had to reboot my pc for updates but then I just clicked restart instead of shutdown down.

  Now, today I had to go and he gave me a typical firewall error when in the game so I decided to shut it down (for the first time since I had these problems). I come back home and I have the same problem again... Now I have even more scared that it won't start because it is now completely off and no "standby mode". I tried o-p-e-n-i-n-g my laptop once again, by using the switch to stop, but it did not help to get started.

  Hi Sil22

  I'm scared of m that this awakening / power on the subject indicate that there is a serious problem with the material.
  As you mentioned in your post, force to shut down the unit should help to stop/Reset of the laptop where it is hung.

  But as I understand the question, the laptop has been turned on properly and probably in this case this switch would not be very.
  I m not very good if you will be able to solve this problem without the help of additional service.
  In the worst case I recommend you contact Toshiba ASP (authorized in your country service provider) in order to check the laptop for possible hardware malfunction.
  All FSA available worldwide could be found here: http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/generic/ASP_SUPPORT/

  But you issue:
  Even if you have already tried the force stop switch I recommend checking of workaround steps once more:
  Disconnect the power adapter and use a an object from sliding into the hole to support the force stop switch. Please hold switch 10 sec long.
  Then you must also press on and press and hold the power for 30 seconds about

  After that, connect the AC adapter and check if the power light is on.
  If it s ON, then it means that the power supply is provided correctly to the laptop.
  Now press power button again to power the unit in place.

  If it works, well, then I recommend you update the BIOS of your laptop.
  The latest version of the BIOS can be downloaded here:
  http://www.Toshiba.EU/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp
  Choose the Satellite L50 PSKK6E
  Also Windows system should be updated to the latest state!

  Where workaround is not helpful, I recommend using ASP.

• Toshiba Satellite L50 - B of the Bios date and time to reboot

  Hello.
  I have Toshiba Satellite L50 - B for more than a year. I upgraded the RAM to 8 GB and it works fine. But the last 10 days of the BIOS date and time keeps restarting by default whenever I turned off or in hibernation laptop. My battery is dead, but I'm not, it reloads all the time and restart the BIOS after that I have unplug the phone charger. I think that the CMOS battery is dead, but when I open the laptop there is no CMOS battery. Someone told me that this model has a kind of Flash for the time of the bios chip. How can I fix it?

  Get a new battery and will be all good.

• Satellite L50-C-22 - update of victory 10 home win 10 Pro

  Summary: I have a new Toshiba laptop, pre-installed with 10 Home X 64 Windows and want to update, as simply and not destructive as possible to 10 Pro Windows.

  I bought my Toshiba Satellite L50 - C - 22 L last month and, overall, I'm very happy with it. He moved in with MS Windows 10 (X 64) running on 8 GB of RAM and works well. I have a couple of other machines running Windows 10 Pro and missed some additional features, so I bought a Pro product key. I had assumed that I would go to the settings screen, choose the 'Activation' option and then click the button change the product key. My new key would be accepted and the system should perform an upgrade in-place to Windows Pro 10.

  Which has proved to be a little ambitious.

  The process failed with the message "the product key you entered cannot be used to activate this edition of Windows. Please try a different key. I spoke to Microsoft and they have confirmed the key that it is authentic, but suggest it only works if I rubbed and rebuilt laptop computer with a new installation, registering the new product key to a suitable place in the build process. (This raises the question of what the "Change product key" button is a commercial copy of the OS, but that's another story).

  My question is, can I follow the instructions to create a recovery on the laptop media to recover a version of the PC factory reset, but change to include the key product Pro Win 10? If I understand correctly, if there is a WIM file as part of the recovery media, it contains all versions of Windows 10 32 - bit and 64 - bit. Installed the final version is 'unlocked' by the product key. This depends, however, how Toshiba packaged installation of recovery files and if they can be twisted this way.

  Of course, there may be a more obvious way to achieve the same goal I'm missing completely, so any other suggestions gratefully received.

  Thanks for reading,

  Steve
