• Satellite Pro L300-128 - startup problem

  Hi all

  I recently bought a Satellite Pro L300-128 GB specification, that has a Celeron M550 running Windows XP and a construction date of the end of June 2008. I have a problem with the switching on of the machine if it has been turned off for a long period of time.

  Basically, if the AC cable is inserted into the computer laptop and plugged in, the green light turns on, but pressing the button it does nothing. By the process of elimination, I have found that, after a short period of time (say 15-30 minutes) if (and only if) the AC cable is then removed from the laptop, it lights up then!

  Plug the AC cable, while the laptop is on, do not cut the machine and charge the battery as usual. The battery life seems very good, if a little short (say 1.5 - 1.75 hours when used "constantly").

  If the computer is restarted, it lights again very well - if it is turned off and left for a few minutes, once again no problem. But, if she is not with the battery fully charged and left all night - it lights again in the morning.

  Now, as a new machine, I'm wondering if the battery needs a long initial load (such as a mobile phone)? Nothing is said about it in the manual. I have not yet checked if the battery down completely himself during the night. I haven't run the battery to the laptop for a long time (say all day) to 'trickle charge '. I don't know if the period from 15 to 30 minutes to get the thing started is once again because the battery is completely discharged during the night (I need to check the BIOS to see if "Wake up we LAN/wireless" is activated)-anyone know how long a fully discharged battery must be charged before that the machine will let you start it?

  Under the machine, there are two battery release buttons and it seems loose - I don't know if it's related, but can't see how. Moreover, when the question arose (during the first delivery the laptop), I removed the battery and tried power upwards of food, but nothing to do.

  I ran all the software updates (chipset etc) I can find on the download page, the BIOS version is 1.40 (last) of the factory.

  Any suggestions would be welcome before I have use the service of repair under warranty for the first time! I don't know if it is related to the fact that the power button seems to be a micro switch rather than a good button/switch in the conventional sense of the term, i.e. you can 'feel' it do something!

  Thank you very much
  Richard

  Hello

  If you have purchased a new laptop, the battery is empty and needs to be charged in the first place.
  You can also connect the adapter to the laptop while the battery is empty and the laptop should also lights up properly.
  The laptop must also run without the battery and using only the AC adapter.

  It should also be possible to put the laptop by pressing the power button for about a second, if this is not possible, a malfunction of the laptop could be possible.

  In such cases, it s always advisable to contact the local ASP for a verification of the laptop.

  I mean your laptop is under warranty and if something is not wrong with the machine so everything must be replaced free of charge

  In my opinion, the laptop must be checked!

• Satellite Pro L300 - required external power supply (power car)

  Hi all

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 and want to plug it into my car supply.

  Has anyone tried this and it worked great.
  I didn't wan't to recharge the battery just to be able to run the laptop for more than the battery allows.

  Hello

  You need a car adapter to connect the laptop to the 12V car

• Satellite Pro L300 does not illuminate

  Hi all, I'm new to this forum.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 and I've had it for about 2 years.
  But yesterday I closed the laptop as usual. But later I went back to it and tried to turn it on. But it does not work. Instead, when I press the power button the LED next to the battery symbol flashes orange/orange 6 times and then turns off.

  Can someone tell me what it is? I tried to let it load, but that has not worked. The amber light is the only light that flashes. It does not recognize that I plugged in the charger and I don't think that the battery was flat. So I'm angry and helpless right now.

  Can someone help me please?

  See you soon.

  Hello

  There are several indicators;
  DC, while running, the main battery, LED HDD/ODD.
  So I guess the power LED flashes in orange. Right?
  This means that something was wrong on the motherboard.
  Maybe power supply electronic malfunctions

  In this case, there is no much to do only mobo replacement could help to...

• Satellite Pro L300 - 29 c very dark display

  Hello

  The display on my Satellite Pro L300 - 29 c is very, very dark. It's dark, both during POST / in the BIOS and configuration once Windows loads. The brightness of the screen (Fn + F7) is set to the maximum. If I plug in an external display, which works perfectly. I can say that this model is not a physical wheel or something similar that controls the brightness of the screen.

  Should I have a hardware failure? Is this something fixable by the user?

  Thanks in advance.

  I can't say for sure, but I think FL inverter is faulty (backlight) and it should be replaced.
  The FL Inverter control the backlight. It is important that FL Inverter are not too expensive part.
  I take in a Toshiba certified maintainer and ask for help.

• Satellite Pro L300: Noise of nasty when connected to your hifi installation comments

  Hi, thanks for reading,

  I just bought a Satellite Pro L300, to use for DJing. I use a Behringer USB mixer, and when I plugged it to the top there is a sound really bad comments coming out of my speakers.

  I tested it in the headphone jack output by connecting the laptop directly to my sound system and I hear the same comments.
  I went to check through troubleshooting and audio driver settings, everything seems fine.

  I thought then he might have been a problem to the ground, so disconnected the power to the laptop and it worked, the Larsen effect stopped. I tried to use a different power supply to an old laptop and the noise starts again.

  Is there anyway that I could solve this problem? I need to run food as the custom of the last battery life long enough while I DJ.

  Thanks in advance

  > so thought that it might have been a problem to the ground, so disconnected the power to the laptop and it worked, the Larsen effect stopped
  I agree with you and Akuma appears that this noise is related to the question of land
  In many cases, different people said they could solve this by using a 3 cable and AC adapter power cord.
  These special adapters can be ordered from the authorized service partner.

• Satellite Pro L300 - Display works only on the external monitor

  I received my new Satellite Pro L300 tonight & followed the instructions one by one. Although the power etc. lights were turned on, I had no monitor display at all. I then plugged on my old pc monitor who * fact * work. I tried pressing Fn + F5 but still nothing on the screen of the laptop?

  Thank you, Adam.

  I think you need to bring your laptop to an ASP. They can check your laptop and exchange all necessary parts.
  I think that your laptop is under warranty, if the repair is free for you :)

  On the Toshiba site, you can search an ASP:

  Good luck!

• Satellite Pro L300-1FN does not start - hang at the BIOS splash screen

  My Satellite Pro L300-1FN refuses to start. When turned on the laptop displays the home screen toshiba/insyde H20 BIOS and the message "press F2 go to the Setup utility, F12 to go to the start menu" and flashes the light access to the hard drive, but don't try to continue loading. I left the bios at the start screen, but it doesn't do anything for long hours on a power supply or is running the battery flat while on battery.

  Is there a way to re - put the BIOS on this unit? If it's a desktop unit I would remove the CMOS battery to force a reset of the BIOS but that's impossible on a laptop. The hard drive is fine because I have it plugged into another system to remove valuable data.

  Hello

  What happens if you press F2 when starting the laptop to the top?
  You can access the BIOS?
  If so, access the BIOS and set its default value. I think you need to press F9 or F10 to get default parameters, but this will be mentioned at the bottom of the page of the BIOS.

  Check it!

• Satellite Pro L300-1AQ only to charge the battery while the phone is in use

  I have a Toshiba SP L300-1AQ.

  In the last month we started having problems with it quit unexpectedly, even on power outlet.
  This morning I used it for about a half hour. When I started the battery level was 39% full, so I plugged it into the outlet. The fire area on the front of the laptop came and taskbar in Windows icon showed it was plugged and load (battery light was orange).

  After half an hour, I checked the battery and it was down to 16%. I turned down the brightness of the screen to try to reduce energy consumption, but less than a minute at the level of the battery was down to 15%. The toolbar icon and power lights both still power showing tasks. The power adapter was cold to the touch. I expect that it is hot. It seems to me that the power adapter does not provide enough power to run the laptop and recharge the battery. If the laptop is in sleep mode, the battery may charge.

  We need a new power adapter?

  Thank you

  Hello

  It's really hard to say what the reason is but first of all, I think its hardware problem and not software related.
  Maybe the card mother doesn t charge battery problem more or the AC/DC adapter is defective. So can you test another adapter AC/DC to a friend for example? It would be interesting to know because if an AC/DC adapter works it seems to be a problem with the motherboard.

  I don t have Satellite Pro L300, I only Satellite L300 but it works really well and I can t notice a problem with the battery charging. It s all ok again :)

  Why do you think Win XP does not work on satellite Pro L300?
  Of course, you can install Win XP on this laptop.

• Satellite Pro L300 - USB card reader does not support the 64 GB

  HI I have a Satellite Pro L300 under Win XP that I want to attach a USB card reader. I find that I can not read the 64 GB cards. The error is that the card is not formatted. All other cards read correctly. I can place this card reader in my desktop running Win 10 and it works correctly and reads the 64 GB cards. This seems to indicate that the USB card reader works properly, and perhaps that the problem lies in the USB on the Toshiba drivers. Has anyone else had this problem and found a fix for this. I've just updated the BIOS but no improvement. Thank you

• Satellite Pro L300 keeps closing

  I have a series of satellite Pro L300 running Windows Vista Business and have problems with him closing by itself without known reason, then it restarts only sometimes.

  The startup repair does nothing.

  Hello

  I think it might be related to high temperatures.

  Have you noticed a hot air coming from vents?

  Usually the laptop stops automatically to avoid that the pieces of equipment against damage.

  So you need to check if the vents are clogged with dust and debris in most cases you can remove it using a jet of compressed air.

• Problem with satellite Pro L300 Ethernet controller

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro L300 (PSLB9A - 02L 001). Have'nt after being on the dial for the year last I was wireless (it worked well before that) but am now back on broadband but I don't seem to have any wireless.
  Checked the Device Manager and there is a yellow exclamation next to the ethernet controller and it seems there is no pilot, but apart from that, there is no further details. I tried to update the driver but it cannot find the driver on my computer and it will not search the Internet for this.

  I tried, but none of the drivers I downloaded seems to work...
  At the back of the computer laptop is a sticker - PA3613U-1MPC, I think it's the wifi card that is missing the driver but I can't find a driver for it for the life of me...

  Any help would be wonderful.
  Daryl in New Zealand

  You are right. This part number is WLAN Card. I put t know what operating system you use but for download driver Atheros http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/?page=downloads WLAN

• Re: Satellite Pro L300 - screen resolution maximum?

  I just bought an external monitor for my L300. The screen resolution is 1920 x 1080, but the maximum available on my L300 is 1280 x 800. The utility Service Station tells me that all my drivers are up to date - is there a way I can increase the graphics resolution? Any suggestions much appreciated!

  Details: Running Windows 7 Pro SP1 on a satellite Pro L300 PSLB9A - 02K 002

  Hi PeterSouthon,

  Need to unlock the other screen resolutions. Simply uncheck the option Hide modes that this monitor cannot display as you can see on [THIS | http://blog.wildvista.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Lightroom_hide_modes-340x400.png] photo.

  After unchecking this box, you should be able to use the native screen resolution of your external display.
