Portege R100 - defective headphone jack

Headphone 3.5 mm on my R100 hole seems to be defective (I tried it with another helmet and with them the sound is distorted unless I managed to get the plug in the right position).

I will provide Toshiba on this subject shortly, but I was just wondering if anyone could tell me if this component replacement is a simple procedure?

Thank you very much.

Hi Dan,.

The headphone jack is a pretty basic device that can usually be bought quite cheaply from most electrical spare outlets. The real problem is to find a repairman that will repair to the component level. Nowadays, the trend is to replace a whole PCB rather than simply weld on a new component.

According your description of the problem as it sounds as if we spring metal tags is either loose or bent and therefore does not sufficiently wityh contact the helmet when it is inserted.

If your laptop is still under warranty, then it should be replaced at no charge.

If your warranty has expired, it may be useful to check for repairers of local PC that quote ' component-level) repair services.

Good luck

  • Large capacity of Portege R100 defective battery - LED would not turn

    Hello

    I recently bought a large battery capacity Toshiba for a replacement Dock Slim for my R100, Toshiba #PA3155.

    It was sold like new on eB *, but after installing to mmy R100, the LED for battery 2' wont turn on I tried to find a faulty contact but they look all "new" battery was supplied with stock Connectror coverage, so nothing seems to be broken.

    Maybe it's the high-capacity battery is broken? It takes some time until what he charged to somestate and then it will be recognized by my R100?

    I would be happy to answer, because if the thing is broken, I need to return and do another fight on eBay... :(

    That's right, the second battery attached will not charge until one is not fully charged.

    Would be nice if you check this (just leave your machine a long day to charge two batteries) and give a short answer if kjo was right. :)

    See you soon

  • Re: Portege R100-11Z no audio signal through headphones/mic not taken, via its USB OK

    Hello

    I did a clean install on my Portege R100-11Z of windows 7 and later a new clean install of Windows XP Prof SP3.

    In both configurations, I have no sound from the headphone/microphone jacks. (yes I check all the options: mute / his wheele next / new drivers / Toshiba eliminate program "mute" e.t.)
    All the configuration looks OK. I don't see anny WARNING/message in the configuration settings.

    But I hear via a USB headset via the USB.

    Looks like the built-in sound card Driver works OK because I get the sound through the USB.
    What is the solution to get the sound through the headphone/mic shots?

    Thanks for your help/advice.

    Will be

    > In two configurations, I have no sound from the headphone/microphone jacks.

    But that the sound from the speakers?

    Theoretically, it could be possible that the headphone is faulty
    Inside the headphone jack there is a little switch that switches between speakers and headphones.

  • Portege R100 freezes - CPU fan is defective?

    I ' v was Portege R100s for a long time, maybe 7 years old, I am at my last one.

    I'll be back from it after eating and the XP screen froze, no mouse movement, CntrlAltDel did nothing. Press and hold the power button it stopped.

    Now I can start, but it freezes again in a very short time, a few minutes. I'm guessing that the processor fan is stopped.
    Not tht sounds good to people, it's a realistic possibility to cannibalize the carcass of my previous and hang the fan of my current group?

    Thank you

    Of course, it could be linked to the question of the CPU.
    If the CPU wouldn't be cooled correctly then the system can stop to answer.

    Are you sure that the fan has stopped working?
    If yes then the cooling module must be checked and replaced by the compatible.
    You may not use the cooling modules. It should be compatible.

    But to be honest, I think that the RAM modules need to be checked also
    In most cases, a RAM problem is more realistic as a defective cooling module

    My old laptop has stopped working because one of the RAM slot is faulty
    I delete a module and the laptop worked using a single module of RAM
    However, I couldn't use it as I wanted and I bought the new notebook.

  • Touchpad does not work on Portege R100

    Hello

    I have recently boght a Toshiba Portege R100 without any installation CD Windows XP Home Edition worked fine but the touchpad is not.

    I installed additional drivers of Toshiba. Now, I'm able to adapt to all kinds of things about the Touchpad, but still it does not work. I was also running Knoppix 5.2 since July 2007. Same problem with Linux.

    Have I not a faulty laptop? How will I know, please?

    Have you tested the touchpad with Windows XP?
    You connected an external USB mouse and you have the same problem?

    Normally the touchpad should work without a driver, they are part of the operating system.
    You can disable/enable it with FN + F9.
    I'm not sure, but you can also enable/disable the touchpad in the BIOS.

    It could be that the touchpad is defective, but ask an ASP for help. They can check the necessary parts for laptop and Exchange.

  • Portege R100, PXE - boot problem - E61:Media Test failure, check cable

    My portege r100 4004GAH original hard drive has had some problems recently, so I decided to replace it with a bigger 4006GAH. Specifications, it seemed that it would be appropriate.

    So I tried to install standard windows top. Unfortunately as I soon discovered that didn't work and lead to BSOD. I looked online and remembered that I had in fact to use the recovery of three discs. Fortunately for me I still had the freshly sealed and I've also owned a combined remarkable Targus CD drive supported. If in the three discs are gone. All seemed well and after that the last drive ended, I was asked to remove the disc. The laptop has rebooted and then gave me the

    PXE - E61:Media Test failure, check cable
    PXE - M0F: Exit Intel PXE ROM
    Insert system disk
    Press a key to continue...

    I thought it might be in the order of start, but verified that and it seemed right. HD was first. I also changed the order and the same error came.
    I thought while another component of my laptop may be broken. So I put my old hard drive in. It started fine.
    The next thought that the new hard drive was defective.

    Fortunately, this is not the case. Because when I used the recovery disks not only heard disk hard turns to the top, but the hard drives were detected and recovery installation displays the correct memory size.

    I'm completely stumped on hat w what is the problem. Any help would be appreciated.

    It is not easy to say what the problem is but you said the Portege started fine with the old HDD. So I think that there is something wrong with the new.

    In your case I test the HARD drive with a special tool like Drive Fitness Test. Download the CD image, burn it to a CD and boot from it. Then you can test the HARD drive.
    On the same site is a user's guide if you want to know more.

    In addition I am interested in what you have the same problem with a Microsoft installation disc if you have one.
    So try if your HARD disk has no errors.

  • Fixing headphone jack, or use another thing?

    1. Compaq CQ2014 desktop computer; 2 Win7 Home Premium 64; 3. no; 4. transfer data (not Windows system) to old hard drive.

    Our front headphone jack seems to be broken or defective. Several headphones connected that barely register in the Realtek HD Audio Manager included console, or not at all; When they work, the sound is either in the left ear only, or mono. Before USB plugs and connections in the back seem OK.

    Saw the Microphone/headset combos which plug into USB (~ $ 22)... that would be compatible with the Realtek system? Alternative seems to be the entire Tower shipped for warranty service in another State that would take days, after we have already lost some weeks that followed the disaster with the old computer which requires obtaining of it.

    Hello

    In my view, the replacement of the FRONT plug is a piece of cake. BACK is sloldered to the motherboard, but the front is not just the cables and the plug itself (unless the case is a fantasy).

  • Problem of Eve Portege R100

    Dear friends,
    I have a problem with my newly purchased Portege R100. When I try to switch (or in hibernation mode, in fact), it starts the process and then stops and displays an error message saying that it is in conflict with the keyboard player and I might need to update this.
    Of course when I try to update, it shows not any update for the keyboard drivers.
    I was wondering if anyone has experienced the same problem and how you solved it.

    Thank you
    Riccardo

    Hi Riccardo

    As far as I know, this problem may occur if you use the external keyboard because for now what laptop enters standby or hibernation to stop all active processes. Now there may be some conflicts because many programs or processes can make the problems by putting off circuit.

  • Portege R100: Recover the CD USB 2.0 drive?

    I need to reset my Portege R100 to factory settings, erasing the hard drive and remove all documents and programs. I don't have a Toshiba CD-ROM drive, only a CD/DVD of LaCie USB 2.0 drive. It worked with other laptops, but I can't get the R100 to start with it.

    Does anyone have a suggestion?

    Hi soren,.

    Maybe you know that you can start from the CD-ROM when you push the 'C' button for aprox. 3 seconds when you press the power button. But it's only for internal solutions.
    In your question, you could test whether it works when you push "U". 'U' stands for USB device!
