I spilled the drink on my Equium A100-147

I had an accident on my old A100-147 of 3 months. I spilled a glass of wine on it! Since then the keyboard has stopped working and the touchpad works only in the windows startup screen, once in windows it stops working. I replaced the keyboard with a new one and now when I run upward it bleeps at me several times and a countdown bar appears at the bottom of the screen.

The touchpad still works on the start screen, but once more, when in windows it ceases to work and still no response the new keyboard. I carefully disassembled the laptop and cleaned what was little wine inside before setting up the new keyboard.

An external mouse will work without any problems and external keyboard works but is very slow to respond. What can I please?

Moreover, I am a complete novice. I've been able to do the following instructions above from my IT dept at work.

Hello

It seems that there are still some wine in your machine.
I recommend you take your laptop to the service, maybe other parts also have to be replaced.

Good bye

  • How to solve the problems associated with the keyboard on my Equium A100-147

    Hello.
    I have a laptop which is the Toshiba standard above and I have a problem with the keyboard.
    Some of the key are defective. For example when I caress symbol I get 'and when I run' @ I @.
    There are several keys that behaves differently (#, |) etc. How can I solve these problems so that keyboards can be used effectively?

    Hello

    Don't panic man ;) This isn't a type of problem.
    You get different or bad signs on the screen because the keyboard layout does not match with the keyboard language setting in regional and language options in Control Panel.

    Please check it and change it in another language; Maybe the United States to the United Kingdom

  • Equium A100-147 - including modules of RAM to upgrade?

    Hello

    I think to upgrade the RAM on my Equium A100-147 and I was wondering what kind of RAM I should get and what is the maximum amount of RAM supported?

    It has a processor clocked at 1.6 GHz centrino duo t2050 if that's any help? I looked on the toshiba site and they sell only 1 GB of supported modules, but in other places I've seen people say that it can take more?

    Thank you

    Hi mate,

    The maximum RAM capacity depends on your chipset you have. From Toshiba Web site displays a maximum capacity of 4 GB of RAM, but don t forget, you need an OS to use the full capacity of 64-bit. Otherwise, you are only able to use about 3 GB.

    You can buy all the modules you want to, but I made good experiences with the Kingston modules. Kingston memory research shows the compatible modules for your laptop:

  • Equium A100-147: I get an error during the recovery procedure

    Hi again,

    I had trouble with my equium a100-147.
    I tried a restore, but the disc is scratched so I phoned in ESL and it snet me a new recovery image.

    I tried the new recovery disk and am now errors when I boot the disk.

    error is

    "internal error crc file: \WINDOWS\$NtUninstallKB895200$\msdtctm.dl.

    any suggestions are welcome. get really annoyed with my machine as my warranty expired only one month

    Thank you

    Hmm... I studied a bit and it looks a bit like a malfunction of the partition.
    It would be desirable to boot from the original CD of Microsoft XP and to start the repair console.
    Then you could try these various commands which help to repair the boot manager, repair errors, locate bad sectors and recover readable information.

    -fixboot
    -fixmbr
    -bootcfg /rebuild
    -chkdsk /r

    If this does not help, you should erase the entire partitions and must format the HARD drive in NTFS file system. Then access the BIOS and set it to the default value.
    Once this procedure tries to start again on the new recovery CD!

  • Question on the disk anti-shock HARD on Equium A100-147

    Don't Equium A100 - 147 HDD have the same shock of the A120 series?

    Hello

    Sorry, but the Equium A120 is unclear to me. Where did you find information on this laptop and HARD shock anti-mecanisme disc?

    I found some info on the new feature called Toshiba EasyGuard.
    Protection of hard drive (HDD) a feature of Toshiba EasyGuard is designed not to damage the hard drive and disks of data caused by the shock, fall or vibration.
    This feature can be found in the device under the section manager system devices as driver of Toshiba HDD protection shock sensor.
    But unfortunately, I don t find anything similar on the Equium A100

  • Equium A100-147 - Native resolution on the external LCD display does not work

    Hello

    My Equium A100-147 has 1 VGA and 1 S-Video output, so I use the VGA output on an external LCD monitor with a native resolution of 1680x1050@60hz, but integrated graphics Intel 945 card doesn t give me the correct resolution to choose for this monitor, the closest is 1600 x 1200 and some weird widescreen resolutions other that make my monitor see the scaling an ugly picture.

    So I tested another external monitor with a native resolution of 1920 x 1200 resolution closest gave me Intel drivers is 1920 x 1080, even the installation of two drivers of monitors, remove and reinstall the driver and same formatting the machine and reinstall everything from scratch gave no different results.

    I have another laptop MSI Wind with the same graphic card built in and the same version of the pilot, and the laptop detects both the monitor and the good resolutions for them, this isn't a problem of Monitor driver.

    Seems to me that is a problem with the S-video output, which makes this mess, but there is no way to disable it in the BIOS or any other place in Device Manager I still seem.

    Can someone give me some advice for what can do?
    Thank you!

    Hello

    You cannot choose the preferred resolution because the graphics chip does not support this external resolution or the installed graphics driver is not contained in this resolution. The two cases are possible.

    If you want to know if your graphic chip supports this resolution and then take a look at the user manual and check it.

    If the chip of the graphics card would support this resolution and you will not be able to choose, then that would mean that the graphics driver does not support this resolution.

    But first he must find out what external resolutions are supported by the GPU.

  • Equium A100-147-glitch-pop-crack if the sound is muted

    Hello.

    I have an Equium A100-147 with Vista home Premium SP1 and 1 GB of RAM.

    Recently I get a glitch-pop-crack from time to time even if the audio output is cut.
    Have no idea what could be the cause?
    I'm more or less certain that everything is up-to-date.

    Thanks in advance.

    I never heard a question also and now I can t say what's the reason for this. :(

    You have the same problem on external speakers?
    What operating system do you use?

    Perhaps you need to update the audio driver you can find on the Toshiba site:

  • Equium A100-147 replacement hard drive

    Hello

    I got a toshiba Equium A100-147 by a friend. The only problem is that it comes without a hard drive, because he still destroyed his old hdd to protect its personal and professional data.

    I saw in a local computer store a disk sata hard very good price for only? Â £38 it's a 160 GB w Digital Scorpio 5400 RPM 8 MB Cache S - ATA HDD laptop someone knows if it will work or this laptop does it work-specific hdd?

    Looking forward to any help you guys can give

    Hello

    Of course you need a compatible HARD drive.
    There are two different standards of HARD drive. SATA and IDE

    You need the HARD drive with the SATA interface. I think the original HARD drive was 100 GB.
    So a 120 GB and maybe a 160 GB SATA HDD should also be compatible.

    As far as I know the HARD drive slot was placed at the bottom of the unit and a screw secures the plastic cover.
    It of really not difficult to replace the HARD drive and I think that the details could be found in the user manual.
