No Satellite M70-166 no reaction when the AC adapter is connected

Hello!

I have a problem with my Toshiba Satellite M70-166.
When I connect the charger, the laptop turns on for a while, then turns off.

What can I do to diagnose the problem and what should be the voltage of the plug for the connection of the battery?

I apologize in advance for my English... I'm Italian :)

Good bye

Hello

There are two possibilities; the AC adapter or the motherboard is faulty.
The device supports a 19 Volt AC adapter.

To be honest, I think that electronic power on the motherboard works bad, which means that every mother should be replaced.

  • Satellite Pro L20: battery not charge when the power adapter is connected

    Hello

    all advice appreciated.

    I had a Satellite Pro L20 for about 18 months. Recently, battery does not charge when the power adapter is connected. The battery light starts yellow (which means more liberated, I think?), then will both green, the machine sat for awhile. However the ACPI often said that AC is "offline."

    There are two recent occurrences that coincide with this problem, I try to eliminate:

    1. my friends rat chewed by the feeder for pets! Power is Mobile OK insofar as he fled sector - the rat seems to have simply chewed by the outer cover (I see some threads, but I think that is just a shield, although I'm not an electrician).

    2. I put the laptop in hibernation for the first time. That seemed to mess up the system a bit, which was what initially drew my attention to the problem. This question is a bit complicated because I'm under Linux (Xubuntu).

    I updated the drivers etc from windows when I bought the laptop. Never had any problems until now and have been running linux for centuries. Also, I have mainly the laptop the power supply turned off, but do not remove the battery (is that really a problem these days?)

    I obviously need to replace the adapter, but is - it is likely (and how I can check) that the battery was borked until?

    see you soon
    Chris

    First, please check if the other are lit.
    If the AC led and power led are on the adapter sector is ok and it provides the power to the laptop.

    > The battery light starts yellow (which means more liberated, I think?), then will both green, the machine sat for awhile
    If the battery LED is yellow, this means that the battery is not fully charged and if the Green led changes then recharging is caught and the battery has been recharged.

    So I really don t see any problems with the charge process.

    Maybe the battery is old and so you cannot use it for an extended in such a case only the replacement of the battery could help.

  • Satellite L655 - questions turn on when the power adapter is unplugged

    Hello

    I have a problem with my new Satellite L655. When the power adapter is disconnected and wireless is disabled, the laptop can turn on for less than a second turn it off again. OR turn 'power' and 'Wireless' turns on, but black screen and hd light; After startup bios of 30-40 seconds, the wireless light turns off and hd lights; OR turn on normally;

    Toshiba has changed the motherboard a few days ago, but the problem persists. Update BIOS. My laptop is the only one affected

    Thank you in advance,
    Maurizio.

    Hey Buddy,

    > Toshiba has changed the motherboard a few days ago, but the problem persists
    So have you contacted already technicians again? You must tell them that the problem is still not resolved and it must be another reason for this problem. Then get in touch with technicians again to clarify this issue.

    Have you connected external devices while laptop is turned off?
    -Online if yes remove each of them.

    Load default settings in the BIOS?
    -Online if it is not this. Enter in the BIOS, and then press the F9 key to load defaults.

    Otherwise, it would be time to service as I have already written. It must be a nuisance material

  • Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE4E) - power off when the AC adapter is connected

    I bought this laptop for my wife about 2 years, since about 6 months ago, that the laptop was randomly shut off without warning, this only seems to happen while the power supply is connected as well.

    I have read several other posts on other sites with people having similar problems.

    There are various suggested corrections, you must disable the duel core in the bios so that it works only on one heart and he spend dynamic low for fans. I did this about 2 hours ago and touchwood not a single switch off again. This however is not an acceptable solution, there is obviously much more slowly.

    Another suggestion has been updated the bios, I downloaded it now but am very worried to run it, this laptop can stop at any moment, lasting from a few minutes to a few hours. If it stops while updating to bios, I doubt that it would be good news. I don't want to make it work on the single core for the rest of the day/night to see if its stable and then go for it.

    Before that, can I make a call to the toshiba helpline, I read on the forums that this is as well a defect of design within the laptop and there's a reminder of some of the laptops in the Canada, I do not know how it rings true but still a concern to read and might be unacceptable to the owners of the A200.

    Others have advised that it is an overheating problem, it's that I reject, I running SpeedFan and showing a stable 47 temp and it allows to switch off the coast immediately when turned on, yes it could be due to dust build up, something I checked and cleared, it did not a difference for the frequent switch offs.

    Im not too well why it is only when the power supply is connected, I have not tried a different PSU, but those who have had the same problem try this and it has not solved the problem.

    When I unplug my power as well the battery seems last mabye 5 minutes at the most.

    Overall, Im very unhappy all this, toshiba is a brand of 'high' where you expect better quality and pay for it.

    If anyone has any suggestions please let me know, would be also good to hear talk of toshiba support on the issue.

  • Satellite P205: Touchpad does not work when the new adapter is connected

    I got a replacement charger for my Satellite P205 but put it has A 4.19 instead of 3. 95 has, they said that it didn't matter, but since I use the charger, I have the following problems:

    -Does not load properly and turns off after an hour.
    -The touchpad has a mind of its own when the charger is connected (windows opens if hovering over button, through the screan jumps when I try to move it, freezes and disappears)
    -Charger Word to say the laptop plugged in but not charging

    What can I do to remedy these problems, the laptop works perfectly when the charger is not plugged in?

    See you soon!

    Hello

    I guess that the touchpad worked correctly in the past with the former sector adapter.
    Is this good?

    Well, it seems that these questions are related to the new power adapter and I would recommend using a 100% compatible adapter.

    Check the AC adapter s old part number and if the issues could be resolved using this adapter.

    * fat * HELP * bold *.

    Hello

    I have a similar suggestions and proposals of solution;
    First check if you are using the latest version of the BIOS. If this is not the case, try to update.

    But to be honest, I doubt that this could be a BIOS problem. It sounds more like a problem with a hardware component.
    I remember that my friend had a similar problem.
    The Courvite of mouse and touchpad jumped on the screen and was not usable
    It's a keyboard question EPA has replaced the keyboard and the problem disappeared.

    But this does not mean that your keyboard is broken it is perhaps only an option

    Anyway, the ASP must check hardware components; for example, the new adapter must be tested too

  • Trackpad and usb mouse stop temporarily when the power adapter is connected

    It is a very weird, crazy question. It began to happen today.

    Introduction: I installed ubuntu since 2008 in this laptop from version 8, now I installed 11.04. My brother has the same problem since a month there is around. It has the same model of laptop (DV9000 HP), but Windows Vista computer.

    The problem: mouse freeze random by 1 or 2 seconds, the two mouse pad and usb mouse attached. When I unplug the AC adapter, mouse works well immediately.

    Indices: I forgot my adapter in my apartment this week, and I got my brother to work here (the House of my parents). And another hint, I used a power adapter for cars, today give it a 19, 7V instead 18, original 5V AC adapter. My brother also use this car adapter.

    Hey, try to get the other original AC adapter. My laptop has become normal when I got my power adapter. See me first post

  • Satellite Pro U400 freezes sometimes when the power cord is plugged

    Hello! I know that this problem has been addressed here and there, but I'd like to open a new thread about it. Here's the scenario.

    I recently bought a new Toshiba Satellite Pro U400-247 (PSU45E) with two batteries: (a) the original, (b) in addition purchased authentic of Toshiba PA3636U-1BRL, 7200 mAh. The laptop has the latest BIOS (4.80) and the latest drivers downloaded from Toshiba and installed (ConfigFree is not installed). I use XP Pro SP3 (own installation by myself). Everything works fine, except for one thing:

    Sometimes (but), when the laptop is running on battery power and I plug in the power cord, everything hangs and I have to restart. A few observations:

    It tends to occur more frequently when the low battery alarm has rung;
    (b) it seems to happen more frequently with the 7200 mAh battery and less frequently with the original battery.
    (c) it seems to happen most often when a USB device (mouse, for example) has been linked to the laptop, but it is not a rule;
    (d) it seems to happen less often when I move the mouse USB at the time wherever I am connect the power cord.
    (e) I've experimented a lot with Toshiba PowerSaver settings (for example to change the levels of CPU for my profile) but nothing I changed seems to change the situation.
    (f) I tried different suggestions I found on various forums, but nothing works (for example the BIOS settings);
    (g) otherwise, I can say that I have not really seen a smoother computer, everything works really fine, no other problem :)

    Everything that makes me think it must be some sort of bug in the drivers of motherboard driver PowerSaver or other drivers interact with battery, CPU or possibly USB. Y at - it an explanation to this problem and can it be rectified in some way (for example, by providing a driver update)?

    Hello

    First of all, I never heard a driver from the motherboard.
    There is a drive chipset or a graphics card driver. There is no such thing as a driver of the motherboard!

    Look, man. laptop should work fine even the AC adapter is connected or not connected
    If the laptop freezes while there might be a software problem, but in my opinion it could be hardware problem
    You must reinstall the operating system if the laptop would freeze always the issue might be related to hardware

    First of all the memory modules and AC adapter must be verified.
    If the problem persists even using new modules and AC adapter, motherboard may be affected.
