  My M60 sometimes turns off immediately after unplugging the power supply (AC power or plug the laptop CC), instead of out on the battery even though the battery is fully charged.
  The battery is OK & the laptop starts regularly on the battery after pressing the on switch.
  The Toshiba Power Saver seems to work OK & I have the latest version of the BIOS.
  I always save my work before unplugging, but again, I do not like this behavior & would appreciate some good advice.

  Satellite M55 turns off by unplugging the power cable to unplug my laptop making rather that to the battery, my laptop will often simply turn off even though the battery is fully charged. Other time things work as it should.

  I had the motherboard replaced for another reason and was quite surprised to notice the problem after a replacement (but without reinstalling OS).
  The main suspect is the TPS and its pilot; A few months ago, a new version is released the Toshiba support site for M60 (although file dates are not fresh, and I think that I have installed this version earlier).

  So, I removed the GST and the GST pilot. I tried several times and it didn't happen again. Not even when I reinstalled the.

  During the test, I have disabled the HD write cache to avoid file corruption problems (but this slows down HD operation, particularly of hibernation).
  I don't know if it works because also earlier the computer would be closed only occasionally, not all the time. But this may be a clue in case you have this problem. If you do, please test and report the result, no matter what the result is.

  What to say dude. The problem is that this problem occurs ONLY occasionally and so it's not easy to find the real reason for these cases.

  However, I would try to give some useful advice, but first of all, it would be useful to know how old your battery.
  Fact is that batteries old and stressed loose clean performance very quickly.
  My battery is about 3 years and my laptop running on battery for 10-20 seconds even if it s fully charged. The performance is simple very low!

  On the other hand the problem could be related to faulty electronic power to the Board of Directors
  As you can see it's not easy to tell what's exactly wrong and as already suggested in other threads (locked), you should ask a technician for a control of the laptop.
  The guy could run diagnostics tests and can locate the fault.

• Satellite A100 - turns off the power after 60 seconds

  After pressing the power button, the laptop starts but 60 seconds from the moment it is activated, the it turns off suddenly?

  The fan turns, I tried cutting dvd, wireless, modem, ram, hard drive, it opens and clean all the dust. It turns off after 60 seconds exactly every time

  Any ideas?

  Thank you
  Ben

  Hello

  > and clean any dust
  How did you do that?
  Usually, you can use jet of compressed air to clean the laptop and remove the dust that blocks the fan. That is why it s not necessary to disassemble the laptop as you can read here:

• Y450 screen turns off after 5 minutes, set to never power settings

  The display on my Y450 turns off after 5 minutes if it is connected or not. I changed the power settings on all levels of the power to never turn off the display, but he keeps doing. I thought that maybe it had something to do with windows is not fully updated so I did it earlier today, but it has not changed. It doesn't matter whether the system is energy saving, balanced or a custom.

  I don't know what to do to stop it, but it's annoying when I play videos and turn the screen on every 5 minutes. Is there another program I'm missing that somehow overrides the power settings?

  You may also need to change the power settings for the windows power management and lenovo power management.

  We also know, that the problem persists only watch movies?

• The computer screen does not turn off after the specified power Options

  I tried several ways on trying to turn off my monitor of my laptop through the options of food and the use of some applications such as nircmd but nothing works every time. I'm sure it can be a program I am not using a device. I have a wireless mouse plugged into a USB port, but I know that's not what is keeping the PC awake, as always happens when it is not plugged. The thing that bothers me is I don't know how to identify this process shut off and I tried to put end as many process I can safely or those that I am knowledgeable in the subject to close. I would really like this feature back. Thanks in advance for the answers and ask if all the details are needed.

  I understood what was the 'problem '. It turns the screen of my laptop never turns off if my laptop is installed on a sloping surface, because it assumes that I'm working on it. When I went to bed my laptop on a flat level surface, is power does work normally, as reduces the brightness of the screen to the bottom, then turns off after a while. I guess it must be a form any a single function on my laptop. Thanks for all your answers.

• HP DV6-6B25TX turn off after 10 to 15 seconds, regardless of the power of the battery or power supply

  Hello

  MY DV6-6B25TX is cutting off after 10-15 seconds, regardless of the battery power or AC power.

  Here's the complete scenario of what happened in recent weeks:--

  Two weeks back I was using the laptop with the power adapter is plugged in for charging, the battery got charged up to 99% then it stopped charging and display the battery icon text, "plugged in, not charging".

  A return of the week, the battery was 20%, after plugging in the charger, always the same message "Plugged in, no charging current".

  Now the laptop does not meet the key power when the battery is inserted.

  If I remove the battery and back again, it starts without pushing the power button and turns off after 10 seconds, well before Windows starts.

  She stops even on the Bios screen, OS is not definitely the question.

  When I plug in charger and press the power button / stop, the same thing, i.e. starts and shutts off after 10 to 15 seconds, regardless of the BIOS or Windows startup screen.

  I removed the ram and but again, but the problem still persists.

  Also there is no issue of overheating due to dust, as I've barely used the laptop for a few hours, the phone is about 6 months and under warranty.

  Please advice ASAP.

  Thanks in advance.

  Honestly, something prevents the battery charge. Computer laptop closing seconds after that reinsert the battery is a good indication the battery just is not getting charged. This could be a battery failure, charger, port, or in rare cases of charge motherboard.

  Since it's under warranty, I recommend you contact HP support that there is no easy solution for this on the forums. It's a hardware problem.

  The number of the Canada and the United States support is 1-800-474-6836.

• Cisco router WIFI does not work after turning off the power

  I have a CISCO router that worked very well until someone turned off the power for a few minutes.  I tried to unplug the modem, the router and the laptop and waited a bit.  Then I turned on the modem, then the router, then my laptop but it is still not in communication with the modem.  I can use the modem with a hard connection to the laptop but need the WiFi as well as others can use it.  Help, please.

  You need to contact support with your Cisco router.  It looks like it might have been reset and the installation needs again.

  Hello

  Just in case, run disk utility.

  Open utility disk located in Applications/Utilities

  Then select the disk to boot on the left and then select the first aid tab and then click run.

  If disk utility indicates that the disc seems to be OK, you are finished. Otherwise, you must repair the disk.

  The new App Store for El Capitan update has locked up my macbook pro.  Reboot got about 3/4 fact and the machine stops. Turned off the power and turn it on again for nothing doesn't.  How in my machine to begin troubleshooting?

  The problem is most likely an attempt to update a system malfunction prior it is probably a problem with your computer, not the El Capitan.

  Start by:

  Reset the PRAM and NVRAM on your Mac.

  MacIntel: Reset of the controller (SMC) system management

  Start in Safe Mode , and then re - start normally. It's slower that a normal start, so be patient.

  If you are unable to start;

  Reinstall El Capitan without erasing the drive

  Please make sure that you back up.

  1. Restart the computer. Immediately after that the chime hold down the command and R until the Utility Menu appears.
  2. Select disk utility, then click on the continue button.
  3. Select the withdrawal (usually Macintosh HD) entry of the volume in the list aside.
  4. Click first aid icon in the toolbar. Wait until the button is active, then click it.
  5. Quit disk utility and re-enter the Utility Menu.
  6. Select Reinstall OS X and click on the continue button.

  Also, see this tip for user: basic steps for the OS X upgrade.

  If this doesn't get you;

  Install Yosemite or El Capitan, from scratch

  Backup if possible before proceeding.

  Restart the computer. Immediately after the chime hold down the command and R buttons until the Apple logo appears. When the Utility Menu appears:

  Select utility disc in the Menu Utility, then click the continue button.

  When loading disk utility, select the volume (entered into withdrawal, usually Macintosh HD) from the list of devices.

  Click Delete in the main window of disk utility. A panel will fall.

  Define the type of Format Mac OS extended (journaled).

  Click on the apply button, then wait for the done button to activate and click on it.

• Tecra 9100 comes on intermittently and turns off after 10-15 seconds

  Referring to a Toshiba Tecra 9100, model No.: PT910E-602SF-FR

  The power button normally doesn't light up at all, even if sometimes it starts normally, starts to load windows, then always turns off after 5 to 15 seconds in any case.

  It always requires the batteries very well, but it won t turn on. I ve checked the ram, hard drive and I re - set the default bios - nothing prevents to cut if you can get it to turn on.

  Any ideas what could be the problem? Any help appreciated, it s the second time I had - the same problem the last time!

  Thank you

  Hey,.

  Have you already tried to clean the fan? Maybe a lot of dust blocking the fan for laptop can start t, and then turns off itself due to a higher temperature. It would be interesting to try to clean it.

  But in my opinion, you've done everything you can do, and it looks like a malfunction of the motherboard. If cleaning using fan doesn t I think the motherboard is faulty or something else. If you are familiar with the disassembly of the laptop, you can try to fix it yourself with second hand parts. Otherwise it s time for a new laptop I think

• Satellite A100-812: screen brightness does not not & screen turns off after a while

  Some power management features do not work after a bios update (5.90).
  The display brightness can be changed in the power manager, or the top menu system. In the power manager, the cursor can be moved, but the brightness is not set. Toshiba menu system appears to hang on trying to change the brightness with F6 - F7 and won't move the cursor.

  In addition, the screen does not turn off after the set amount of minutes in the power manager.

  What is going on? How can this be repaired?
  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Some questions; Why you have updated the BIOS?
  Are you sure you used the right BIOS?

  In my opinion you shouldn't t to update anything if the laptop works properly!

  However, try to access the BIOS, set the default settings and save the settings before exiting the BIOS.
  If this does not help, I would pick up the laptop with the Toshiba Recovery CD.

  Good bye

• Equiium series A - maintains turns off after 20 minutes

  My laptop turns off after about 20 minutes of use. I checked for dust and clean battery etc. Any other suggestions? It has been suggested that I have to find and fix bugs in C drive but I don't know how - as any help much appreciated.

  Is what model laptop?

  Dust in the heat sink is often the cause.
  It can also be caused by a dry heat pipe (liquid escaped), or dried up CPU thermal grease or a failed fan.

  Or its possible that the power adapter is faulty, or she cannot provide enough amps, or a power adapter non - Toshiba is used.
