On the Satellite A350-12Z power problem

Hello

Since today im problems with my diet.

What's happening:

When I connect my power adapter to charge my battery the battery sign comes on for 2 seconds and then turn off again. Windows does not recognize recharge the battery.

Now I ' m unable to give more details, because the battery has gone flat.

If I remove the battery and try AC only the laptop will not connect. The battery must be inserted in order to start. so the power will go to the battery first, then the system which is quite strange.

The battery itself shows no signs of damage / leaks.

Output voltage on DC: 19.55VDC @ A 6.32
AC adapter: specifications and my readings, not defective.

Model: Satellite A350-12z

Thank you

Hello

Are you using the original Toshiba battery and AC/DC adapter or some parts of 3rd party?

That's why strange notebook doesn t start without battery. Usually, you can always start your laptop with an AC/DC adapter, battery is not necessary.

So either it's something wrong with the AC adapter or motherboard right now I think that it s mainboard failure.

  • On the Satellite P30-131 power problem

    I have a power problem and I tried the process of elimination, but could do with help, I gave as much detail as possible and appreciate any help or advice.

    This started a few weeks ago and seems to be deteriorating slowly.
    I turned on the laptop and all 3 lights before the main power on fully charged battery light and light green...

    I started noticing a few times when my power cord is plugged into the laptop that, without warning, the laptop switches to the battery power and also turns off power light, battery light turns off too but which may or may not happen, in any case the laptop is still on but now running on battery.

    I then out of the supply cable and reconnected it hoping that power is restored, but it has no effect, I have to close then low laptop unplug then Pug back in and I get all 3 lights and then I can start.
    Now, when I boot it does not always solve the problem and I can finish on a few seconds of starting battery.

    Its certainly not the battery because it has a new battery replaced 12 months however, its either the adapter or the connection inside the laptop that plugs into the adapter.

    The reason I think it is perhaps one of them is when the laptop going to battery, lead that is always plugged into laptop, I moved, and this can cause the return of t lights and also the laptop back in, power once again, but if I let go then it goes to the battery again one the light turns off. I also took the battery out and kicked and the laptop works but has lost the power sometimes when I moved it turned off my tour so I'm sure that it is related to the lead, but do not know if its internal or external.

    Any help or advice appreciated

    Thank you

    What kind of help did you expect exactly?

    > Its certainly not the battery as it was a new battery replaced 12 months however, its either the adapter or the connection inside the laptop that plugs into the adapter.

    It seems you have tested everything that could be tested using common control procedures, I think that more is not possible
    I can provide also a few suggestions and I m coming to the conclusion that neither electronic power supply is not ok or your power adapter.
    But I would tend to the first; electronic power supply.

    As you can see that these are only suggestions

  • Problems with the reader of CD/DVD on the Satellite A350-12j

    Hello

    I just bought my laptop, Toshiba Satellite A350-12j, two weeks ago and am generally happy with it, but I can't seem to read correctly the data DVD.

    When I try to play a DVD that I burned on my data desktop PC, the laptop starts to read, but takes very, very long time.
    When I try to copy the data on the DVD of my laptop, it takes forever (I tried once for 45 minutes and then abandoned) and after a while it starts to claim it can read most of the files on the DVD.
    It is not the data on the disks which raises problems, cause when I transfer those my desktop to my laptop computer on a Flash DRIVE instead of a DVD, files are copied immediately without problem.

    At first I thought it could be due to the DVDs themselves (I use TDK DVD + ROM), or perhaps that Vista was the culprit, but I tried the same exact discs on my friends laptop Medion also running Vista and it is having no problem whatsoever.

    Anyone have any ideas what could be the cause, or better yet, which could solve it?

    Thanks in advance!

    > When I try to play a DVD that I burned on my data desktop PC, the laptop starts to read, but takes very, very long time.

    Hmm I think this could be a problem of DVD not entirely compatible.
    My laptop drive s couldn t read or write DVDs from different manufacturers.
    I tested a lot of disks and now I m using TDK DVD-R.

    But it of always different. Maybe your drive would not support this disc correctly, but another disk would be better supported

    I think you should test it simply. There are many manufacturers different drive don t give up buddy

  • Installed the programs see the emptiness on the Satellite A350-212

    Hello

    I hope someone can help here. My brother left England in the Turkey a couple of years ago and his cell phone, which was the United Kingdom's irreparable, so he bought one in Turkey, A Toshiba Satellite A350-212 and has problems with the downloads. For example he downloaded a free trial of Coverxp and he seemed to download ok and asked if he wanted a shortcut on the desktop. He said yes to the shortcut, and as I say, it seemed to have installed ok.

    The iicon office never appeared and the Coverxp in all programs also shows empty.
    This is the case for most of the things it has downloaded, such as the trial version of Winrar.
    In programs and features uninstall, applications are here. In my view, this could be a security problem.

    All the things he tried to install it I installed on Vista without any problems

    If anyone can help with information ill be most gratefull

    Thank you.

    Hi mate

    First I put t think it's a problem of Toshiba.
    I recommend saving the downloaded packages somewhere on the second partition.
    Then go to that partition and unzip the package.
    Then follow the installation instructions.

    By the way; shortcuts on the desktop can be created manually.
    Simply right-click on desktop and create a new shortcut and point to the exe of the installed software.

  • Does not begin with satellite C655-S5128 - power problem

    My laptop won't turn once I do a shutdown of windows.

    After it closes completely, when I try the power button nothing happens (or an led, or screen the wind. it does not start)

    After I remove the power supply and the battery for a minute and put it back, when I try to turn it on - it begins.
    I changed the RAM with good, same thing. I cleaned up the laptop and put the dough on the processor thermal quality.

    The model is: Toshiba Satellite C655-S5128.
    This thing happens because I cleaned up my laptop.
    (I mention that I have clean for laptops all day, so I know how to do)

    The unit doesn't power since clean you the laptop?
    Hmm these sounds like something was wrong during the cleaning procedure.

    I think you have a lot of experience in cleaning for laptop and you know how to do this, but obviously this time you made a mistake, sorry to say this.

    In my opinion, the question certainly pertains so a hardware problem I put t know that you clean the device and what parts (next to the CPU) have been removed during this procedure, but without doubt one of these parts have been affected or don't function properly.

  • Upgrade memory on the Satellite A350-10I

    I have a Toshiba satellite A350 10I. I want to increase the RAM 2x2gb ddr2 800 MHz memory.

    Can be changed with ddr3? The motherboard will support?

    This kind of upgrade can be. RAM upgrade must be done with 100% compatible modules. Faster RAM will not help at all. It depends on the motherboard THAT FSB accelerated. If you use the memory modules as soon as they be pointing down.

    How do you upgrade the drive HARD and fast use of SSDS?

  • Re: Question on the Satellite A350-22Z GPS

    Hello

    My laptop is Toshiba Satellite A350-22Z. My GSP does not work. GPS Utility from Toshiba said GPS not supported, but I'm sure that I used my GPS on this computer. After that I reinstalled Windows 7 Ultimate x 64, I couldn't not do GPS works.

    I installed the drivers 3G and Toshiba Wireless Manager.
    But still I could not find the necessary driver/software.

    This who should I guess what to do?

    Thanks in advance...

    Post edited by: TemhAAhmeT

    According to the specifications of the laptop this model has 3G and comes with Windows Vista 32 bit.
    I believe you that you have used the 3G with original OS because it contains Ericsson 3 G driver and Toshiba 3 G RF Control Utility.

    You will find download page to download both of them for Win7 on Toshiba?

  • Re: A few questions with the Satellite A350-12J

    My father-in-law's cell phone is the Satellite 350 and I think there 12j after his name.

    We re-installed Vista 32 bit the other day and he said that some things do not work as they should.

    First of all, if he presses the FN key, and say the s, the brightness, it works but he used to have a small dock type thing will appear at the top of the screen with icons of FN button. The other don t FN keys work well as the permutation of switch monitor.

    Second keys soft touch media don t work as turning off the lights behind them or bring up media player.

    We have evidence and tried to install the value pack but he said during the installation that he was withdrawing the package so it must have already been installed. After having re-installed, there is no difference. I can't find any program or whatever it is in the Panel for her.
    Also, I tried the same thing to the hardware configuration. Once again, it seems telling herself it was there and uninstall. Yet once I re-installed but t still can't find anything for him anywhere for me to change any settings or anything like that.

    I don't have the laptop with me good that now it is at home, but I think I got it.

    All ideas welcome.

    Each Toshiba laptop comes with the pre-installed operating system and the old A350 will be delivered with Vista, so I would like to know if it is possible for you to use this original picture of the recovery.
    Have your father in law created recovery DVD such as recommended by Toshiba?

    I guess you are trying to install the version of Vista clean, right?

  • Chicony webcame is not working on the Satellite A350-12j and Win 7 64 bit

    Hello

    The chicony webcam does not work on my toshiba Satellite A350-12j and windows 7 64 bit...

    I always get different errors as
    "graphics make it fail."
    "the device is locked by another program.
    etc...

    I tried many things and watch them on a lot of messages, but nothing does. I installed a lot of drivers and programs to solve, but nothing works.
    at first the camera was ok but now nothing seems to help and the camera is broken...

    Can you help me??

    Thank you!

    > seen as 1 million messages like mine and not even 1 right answer on how to solve it!
    I guess you didn't read all these messages correctly

    The user Symbian wrote that her webcam works fine! He used the software/driver for the Toshiba page as well

    Since the Skype reports an unknown error too, I guess that this whole thing has noting to do with the webcam software, but with your Windows 7 installed!

    Seems a registry keys, files or all what it might be, are confused upward!
    In your case, I would try a new installation! Install Win 7 and the Toshiba drivers/software.
    Then test the webcam.

    Don t install any 3rd party software before you would test the webcam!

  • Touch pad freezes on the Satellite A350-02 t

    I just bought a new laptop Satellite A350-02 t. I used only twice, and both times that I used it, the touchpad, at some point, has stopped working. Well, not 'stopped', but becomes fountain, figitty, freezes, stands... it's pretty hard to explain.

    It move a little and then freeze, then move slightly and freeze.

    Also, I noticed yesterday when I was with her, the scroll option no longer works. I've been a .pdf document display and it was allowing me to scroll through a second, then the next second, I couldn't scroll. I tried to open the web browser and scroll but it still wouldn't let me. I restarted the computer, and it seemed well again.

    Any suggestions?

    Hello!

    Have you tested an external mouse on the laptop? It works or not?

    It's really hard to say what the reason for this is because I m not a technician mobile but have you tried to update the driver for the touchpad? You can find it on the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    What operating system you use, and you have installed the laptop with the Toshiba recovery disc or disc of Microsoft?

    Good bye

  • Re: Satellite A350-13 has - problems with warranty

    I bought Toshiba Satellite A350-13 a to the 01.09.2009. Months ago, my graphics card doesn't work anymore, so when I had turned on my screen remained black all the time. Next day 16.03.2010 I gave my laptop for the guarantee. After three weeks, they called saying me, of course they will repair laptop when they are a party. And it belongs to the hilarious story. I was told that the parts will be at their desks 16.06.2010. I was using my laptop for 7 months, and now I have to wait 3 months for repair?

    Is not that bad for me as a customer to be our as a person. They don't give me something (any laptop) as a replacement for these 3 months...
    I am schocked that today as big as Toshiba company can't get graphics card. I'm sad and I'm angry that I bought their laptop, and I regret it.

    Can I do something?

    Hello

    It's really ridiculous to wait 3 months to get fixed. I see, you're of the Poland, and there are 5 centres of service according to the user manual. It seems strange that they do not have a graphics card to all.

    Anyone know what is happening? Thank you!

    USB controller drivers are responsible for these functions. These drivers are part of the chipset drivers. Try to reinstall/upgrade to update chipset utility:

  • Satellite M30X-129 - power problems

    I have problems with the power supply and the laptop does not start, or crashes. I had the same problem in Oct 05 when DC power jack appears to be a little loose causing no charging battery / an irregular DC power supply with the laptop battery/dc power switching and running down the battery.

    Finally the wasn't it? t comply with power up to /charging/ & kept close until he just died. Toshiba has replaced the motherboard on this occasion under warranty (10 months). Same problem came back again (replacement mother now of 6 months) off now guaranteed. But complained to Toshiba and am currently waiting for their call back. Any body has experienced similar problems? Thank you

    Hello

    Unfortunately I have no explanation what is the problem with your device. The fact is that you have the guarantee that all the new parts. Please contact the technician again and ask them how long is the warranty of the motherboard replaced.

  • Power to the Satellite C850-1 kN problem

    Dear friends,

    I'm Belgian and I received a call a few weeks ago desperate to an English friend (she's a student).
    His laptop computer Toshiba Satellite C850-1 kN 15 months old did not illuminate. No sign of life anymoe...

    Much to my surprise the standard warranty period is only 1 year in England (in Belgium and in many European countries, it is 2 years).
    And of course that she should have taken an extended warranty, I would have told him (and now she realizes that too of course).

    So she send it to me...

    For the problem itself, I tied each thing on feeding issues (power reset by pressing the powerbutton for a minute, replacing the power brick, etc., etc., I even checked the current arriving on the motherboard, and it's ok...).

    What surprises me is that I find so many references to power with Toshibas (and very little real solutions...) problems.

    My friend treats his laptop very well, it looks brand new, I find such a pity to throw the laptop (even for ecological reasons).

    A portable well-treated should operate for 4-5 years, at least..., and a decent society should not allow to happen, not even out of warranty (at least not after 15 months).

    As you know that these laptops are not cheap (especially for a student...)

    Can someone give me some advice (on the warranty or any technical suggestion...).

    Thank you very much for your support (and for reading this!).

    Kind regards
    William

    Hello

    Obviously some serious hardware problem has occurred, and from my point of view of a few any material part could cause this problem.
    I guess that the parts as modules of memory, motherboard so that the CPU may be affected, I assume that it is not possible to say what s wrong here without touching the laptop.

    My laptop did lights not because one of the slots on the motherboard was faulty.
    After that I removed one of the modules, the unit may be turned on.

    One of my friends could not use the laptop because of the failure of memory. Two modules are dead at the same time the two parts have been replaced and unit still works so far

    As you can see, the material can start to malfunction it is nothing unusual in the world of large computing
    So what I will say; I think laptop engineer should check the hardware parts after you can decide whether you want to repair

Maybe you are looking for
