Low screen on Satellite L10

Hi all

I tried to connect to an external monitor is fine until the Windows XP logo has been loaded, and then he cut and will not return.
I can load Bios and f12 and they remain on the property, but just can't get into the computer.

Any1 can help? He leads me around the bend.

Thanks pauline

Hi Pauline,

The usual cause of a light screen (where the screen is not visible about) is an FL inverter has failed. This a small device that is responsible for providing lighting for the LCD screen when the laptop is turned on. Luckliy this component is not too expensive, then I suggest that contact a repairer authorized to extract your laptop.

Kind regards

    Hello

    I don t think you will be able to solve this problem yourself.
    In my opinion there must be something wrong with the hardware.
    You should ask the Toshiba service partner in your country for help.

  • Low screen on Satellite P200 - 103-> FL inverter or backlight malfunction?

    Hello

    subject is fairly free but explanatory thought I'd check here.
    To sum up: off my laptop, one night, no previous problems. To turn on the next mornign and nothing on the screen, can just about making a light screen image, but not enough to see pointer etc.

    Quick search on google shows backlight or inverter. Repair shop, said ups but you want £300 to fix. Someone else has had this problem and it was repaired. Seems a little hard knowing that I can get the part for less than £50.

    Is there an accurate way to know if i's the inverter or backlight?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Satellite L10-192: Video Out (TV screen is black and white)

    Hello

    I recently bought a new notebook Satellite L10-192, and I have trouble with the video out of service.

    The image on the TV screen is black and white. I have read and followed the instructions of the manual (indicate the video mode PAL B, etc.), but it is always black and white.

    I have Win XP Pro without Service Pack.

    Anyone has any advice on this problem? Can I change the resolution or color depth or install Service Packs? Or a Toshiba from the factory CD utility?

    Thanks in advance,

    Zoltan

    Hello

    In my opinion, your settings on the laptop are right but please check your TV also. I put t know if your TV is a S-video port or you use a S-video adapter. Please check menu TV. Maybe it's for S-video option in the port.

    If the TV doesn't have a S-video port, you can connect your unit as follows:
    (1) SVID-adapter that brings back the color! It works with any device with an s-video signal through a plug 4-pin or 7-pin. http://www.s-vid.de/images/SVID.gif
    (2) SCART - / adapter S-video http://www.mediaatlantic.com/product.php/366/1142//8aa0b1bbaf6020c785221873b2a985bd

  • Satellite L10 193: black screen TV

    Hello

    When I plug the S-video cable to the s-video output and bind it to my TV with a scartconnector the colors on the screen isn't here. It is black and white. Does anyone know how to fix this?
    I have a Satellite L10 193

    Thank you

    Hello

    As far as I know it s parameters question a TV.
    If you use an adapter SCART, check that the S-VIDEO on your TV signal is connected, indeed, internally, to the adapter SCART to the TV.
    In addition some SCART TV connections are not S-video compatible.
    If these suggestions do not solve the problem, please consult your TV manual.

  • Satellite L10-232: black screen after closing the lid.

    Hello

    I moved my laptop (satellite L10-232) in another room, it wasn't stop (just closed it). When I opened it there was nothing on the screen and the battery is not empty (processor still does some things). Anyone know how I can fix this problem?

    Thank you

    Easy...
    PowerManagement is weaker and less stable features on any laptop. (especially with the defective batteries).
    NEVER try to count on the home screen etc. It will work time 999 and 1000 it don't.
    Now, you're done with a laptop computer hanging.
    The ways:
    1. the easy way:
    -push the power button and keep your finger on it for 10 seconds. (5 is enough, 10 to be sure)
    -remove the battery
    -plugin powercable
    -push the powerbutton

    2. the less gentle way:
    -remove the power cable
    -Remove the battery
    -wait 24 hours
    -Insert the power cable
    -push the power button

    3. the hard way: make sure THAT YOUR HARD DISK IS NOT PASSWORD PROTECTED, to OTHER YOU LOOSE YOUR DATA.
    trying to understand hat is the startup key sequence to reset the BIOS at startup. (it should be described in your manual somewhere)

    4. the hardest way:! ONLY BY A PROFESSIONAL!
    IF MAKE SURE THAT YOUR DISK IS NOT PROTECTED BY WORD, OTHERWISE YOU LOSE YOUR DATA.
    The laptop must be open and all batteries must be removed. All the capacitors must be emptied (leaving a laptop without the battery for 72 h). Then turn on
    the laptop.

    Please note that I can't be held responsible for any damage or loss of data under any circumstances.

  • Satellite L10 screen very dark after disassembly

    Hi all

    I took my Satellite L10 part to swap on the plastic dessu for a damaged joint.
    Now is superb, but something was wrong as the screen is not be enlightened now.

    Anyone have any suggestions what else could be?

    If I look at the screen to light, I can see the desktop, I bought a new UPS thinking that was the problem but it has not fixed it :(

    Maybe a second faulty inverter? I checked all connections etc...

    Thanks in advance!

    Rich

    Hello

    For me, this looks like the inverter issue.
    If you see the desktop and the image appears as behind a thick mist, then in most cases this problem is related to the inverter FL.

    I put t know if the inverter is faulty or if you have connected all the bad parts
    The two may be possible, and so I recommend you to speak with a local laptop technician.
    In your case, that the old parts must be checked first, before buying a new FL inverter, cable, etc.

    See you soon

  • Satellite L10-333 without BACKLIGHT on screen

    My Toshiba L10-333 when turned on lights and display also, only that there is no lighting, so I don't see anything on the screen without the help of an outside light.

    If there is someone who can help with this problem please please help. I think that it has to do with, the power of the LCD. If the main power circuit problem, can it be bypassed? Even if it means losing control over the brightness of the screen?

    Any ideas would be welcome. Also, if anyone has the circuit of Satellite L10-333, please report it. Thank you.

    In such a case, you should send your machine to an authorized repair partner since it clearly sounds like a hardware failure. If I were you I would not try to repair it by oenophile because when not with something you might destroy your whole machine.

    If you need assistance to find an ASP simply go to the Toshiba Mainpage (http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/) go to Support downloads & -> support homepage-> find an authorized Service partner

  • Satellite L10-333: screen stays black, until I hit the edge of the screen

    I have a Satellite L10-333, which is about 3 years old, it has suddenly started having screen problems.
    It started with a white screen instead of the normal and a black line all downstairs in the middle.

    Now when I turn on the pc, the screen remains black and dead until I hit the edge of the screen and when the screen comes alive, I must hold and press part of the cover, so that the display stays on...

    Anyone know what's the problem?
    I thought it might be a loose wire or connection.
    Someone else has or had this problem?

    Thanks for your help...

    I agree with you. It must be a contact problem. In my opinion, it is not important if anyone else has this problem too and you have to find the solution as soon as possible.
    The laptop must be disassembled and check the connection of the screen. Now the question is what to do. Can you check it alone or you need professional help?

  • Satellite L10-119 freezes after RAM upgrade

    My Satellite L10 is 4 years old. I wanted to update this change of RAM and HARD disk.
    I installed in RAM DDR1 SoDimm 1 GB PC-3200 (a unit) and used my computer for a few hours.

    But next time, he started to make mistakes and freeze or stop going to the blue screen.
    When I use DDR1 SoDimm 512 MB PC-2700 as a single unit, everything is OK.

    Will not track with * 1 Gb PC - 3200 * to use?

    Hello

    Case is clear!
    > When I use DDR1 SoDimm 512 MB PC-2700 as a single unit, everything is OK
    You used the not entirely compatible RAM modules!
    This is the reason why your laptop freezes!

    The fact is that your L10 can be upgraded to 1 GB RAM max, this means you need to use max 512 MB RAM module in a slot

    In addition, you can use the PC2700 200 pins (333 Mhz) DDR SODIMM modules and not of PC3200

  • Satellite L10-270 - error Power Saver, utility

    Hello.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L10-270 and because no standby power utility has been installed on.

    Then I looked for the Toshiba Power Saver, utility and try to install it, but I was unable to make it work. The battery is very low, I really need this software to work.

    Sometimes I get a message:

    "A fatal error has occurred. The program will end.
    "Code: Ox7E.

    And sometimes the message:

    «Cannot be opened because you do not have access rights to use «Toshiba power saver»»

    I hope you can help me, all brands have a power management utility work, I was hoping that it was the same for Toshiba. I hope!

    Any solution, a way to run the Toshiba Power Saver or any other software that could replace it.

    I have another question, where can I find the phone numbers and e-mail technical support or service after sale?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    The energy saving was not preinstalled on this unit because this utility is not supported on this device (Satellite L10-270).
    It would be very interesting to know where you found this tool?
    I put t I think that this energy saving will not work properly because it was designed for another unit. In this case, you must use the Power Options of Microsoft Windows that you can find in the Panel

    In addition if you want to contact technical support please visit this site. You will find detailed information.

  • Satellite L10-194 cannot run after recovery

    Hello! I used my Satellite L10-194 for a few years, and he started to be really slow, I decided to reinstall the system (recover) to make it cleaner and faster.
    I found my recovery of product L10 DVD - ROM, but when I finished the system restore would not start. I tried the recovery for some time, and it does not help. Whenever I try to start the computer, when it goes to load the system it just turns off (I think that it is something like the blue screen flashes for a second).

    I checked the disk file image in advanced mode and HARD, and that's OK. But when I do HDD-> image in advance mode, after it is sometimes a moment when I have access to the command line. After getting "dir C:" I don't see a Windows directory (?), when restarting the computer does not work as usual. I'm doing something wrong?

    I tried another CD of product recovery of the second Toshiba laptop that I have, and it works, it installs Windows but without pilots and things (it's a completely different model from Toshiba). What should I do? I'm not sure if the use of system preinstalled for model is the right idea (and legal)?

    I had some problems with my front L10, and I had to change the motherboard. In service, what they said that they can't find a motherboard identical like that in my L10, so they used some different model. It's maybe the problem of recovery does not work why?

    PS.
    Sorry for my English, please correct me in my errors, to help me improve the language :)

    > I had a few problems with my front L10, and I had to change the motherboard. In service, what they said that they can't find a motherboard identical like that in my L10, so they used some different model. It's maybe the problem of recovery does not work why?

    I think that this is the reason why your laptop does not start after the recovery procedure.
    Seems that the drivers that are part of the image are not compatible with the new motherboard.
    Maybe the driver chipset or make sure you graphics card drivers some worries and windows crashes before starting the system
    Maybe you could star the windows in safe mode. Press F8 just after pressing the power button / stop. Then choose Safe mode.
    In safe mode, uninstall the chipset driver and the graphics driver and then try to start it again.

    If that does not help, then install windows using a clean Microsoft CD.
    Pilots should be placed on the page of European driver of Toshiba.

  • FN keys do not work on Satellite L10 - 103

    the problem is.
    My fn keys are not working properly, some work, some don't. and those who are not against hepatitis has the little sign on the screen.

    Sorry for my bad English
    I hope you can help me
    see you david

    Hello

    In my opinion your FN buttons do not work properly because of missing drivers.
    Do you agree with me?

    So the only solution may be to visit European driver of Toshiba and reinstall the software.
    Drivers and tools are in the area of the Archive of the European driver page.

    I recommend to install first the common Modules and then follow the installation instructions in install Instructions txt file.

    By the way; These themes have been discussed here several times. So search first.
