• Equium L10: Problem with the main battery and battery RTC

  Hello

  I have the Toshiba Equium L10 and it is about 14 months old and I have problems with the battery and how much time it takes after a full charge. I also have problems with the RTC battery and an ERROR 0271: check date and time settings message when I turn on the laptop.

  Regarding the battery, I can fully charge it upward in about 3 hours, but when I start to use it, apparently in the last few hours around one and a half or so and then it needs to be recharged. I can have down for about 40 minutes and then turn it off and come back later or in a day or two. How long should I expect from a fully charged battery?

  About the batttery RTC, it really becomes a pain and I only started to get the message of the ERROR 0271 start-up, in recent weeks. I can charge the battery pack and then leave for a few days, but when I turn it on, I get the message ERROR 0271 on the date and time incorrect. Surely after a full charge, the RTC battery should last longer than a few days?

  The manual says that if the RTC battery is exhausted or becomes weak, you must charge the battery of the CCF for 24 hours, in a different part of this manual indicates between 24 and 48 hours, but how can load you for long when the sections concerning the charging battery pack status after charging the battery you unplug the power adapter because leaving connected will shorten the life expectancy of the Battery Pack. So, how we can charge the battery of the CCF for 24 to 48 hours if we shouldn't leave the AC adapter plugged in once the battery is charged - which is nearly three hours. Suggestions about these problems would be appreciated.

  Besides we all know that it is easy to change the CMOS/RTC battery in your desktop base unit, but is it easy to change in a Toshiba Equium L10?

  Concerning

  Hi Brave0,

  The normal recommendation for the CMOS (RTC) battery is to leave the laptop connected to the power supply at least 12 hours when the main battery is fully charged. The charging circuit is going to hijack the current to the load automatically RTC battery and no current will be forwarded to your main battery.

  Recommendation do not leave the power adapter is plugged in the main battery is fully charged is really only applicable to older laptops that used no batteries Li - ion and therefore they had to be completely discharged before recharging to avoid any effect 'memory' of the battery.

  With modern Li-ion batteries, it is quite safe to leave the battery when fully charged and still power the laptop from the AC adapter. The charging circuit will pass all the battery charge if it is fully charged.

  Kind regards

• I have a problem with my laptop does not connect to the internet. It connects to our wireless very well, but it doesn't have an internet connection.

  I have a problem with my laptop does not connect to the internet. It connects to our wireless very well, but it doesn't have an internet connection. It connects to other networks wifi very well with Internet access, is that the wireless in my house what it connects to. When I diagnose the problem, it says "Cannot communicate with DNS server (208.67.222.222)", and then under that it says: "languished network diagnostics remote hosts, but had not received a response." It connects to the Internet through an ethernet cable, but it is rather annoying pulling the cable autour. I currently have Windows Vista Home Premium. Thank you!

  Hello

  Now, you may need to contact the support of Panda Internet Security centre to change the settings so that wireless is enabled through it.

• DV9000 laptop battery life

  I have a HP dv9000 series laptop for about 2 years and my battery is in poor condition.  It is typical of this battery life is only 2 years? Given that I keep my PC plugged in most of the time, he wears on the battery? I just want to know if I should buy a new battery or do I check to see if it is covered by the warranty.

  Thank you

  I'll save you the trouble. Even if you get the longer warranty the battery is covered with padt 1 year generally not unless you have obtained the guarantee of store on top of the HP warranty. 2 years isn't a bad battery life. That's all what I expect to get. Battery life is governed by the number of cycles of discharge and duration and charges since. If you take a battery that is new in the box, it will be lower after 2 years when new even if you do not use. If you literally never use the battery you can remove it during the execution of the laptop on the sector. He unloads up to like 30% and store it in a cool, dry and dark place (but not in the refrigerator).

• Anatel Sony wireless mouse connects erratically with cursor. Battery life is very good. It also seems

  Anatel Sony wireless mouse connects erratically with cursor. The battery life is very good. The cursor problem also seems to be making the top and down arrows on my wired keyboard. When the cursor is engaged the arrows will work. When the cursor does not connect correctly the arrows do not work. The surace the mouse is on doesn't seem to be a factor.

  
  

• HP 15-r249tu: for the last two months I inform HP to address my problem with the laptop HP 15-r249tu.

  For two months I contact HP chat support to fix my problem with my HP laptop 15-r249tu with the L2Z88PA product id. The laptop was completely dead and does not work. I contacted HP for cleaning on site (it covers the warranty on site) and there is still no reply fron their side. So I intend to give a complaint to the Court of the consumer against the owner of the store that I bought the laptop (he only said support HP was good and me to buy the misleading HP product)

  It took the shop and he told to contact HP support for replacement of the battery. So I contacted HP support for this problem and they said to do a battery test. So I did test battery and shows like 'calibrate '.

• HP G61 problem with charging the battery.

  Dear Sirs, I have read so many posts but I could not find a solution, so I decide to post one on my own.

  I have a HP G61 and work properly it works. The problem I have is with the battery.

  If I scream at the bottom of the laptop and leave it with the charger on when I start the laptop battery is full 100%

  during the initialization of the light of the current passes, the HARD drive light is normal and sometimes the charge light is on, a few times is off.

  I noticed that a lot of ppl have similar problems, so what I have is that

  With a multimeter, I have seen that the output power of the power brick is very well! Besides that I had three laptops computers HP with the same power supply, so I try this brick to the other laptop seems to work very well with the other laptop. I try another laptop PSU to this one and had the same problems.

  I concentrate so that the problem is in the battery. I download the HP battery checker and scan my bat (was100% charged) and the result was OK!

  so the mystery in this case is that the laptop does not work properly, I try full preformance, no problem at all, just the battery runs faster (make sence)

  While the laptop is running the power cord is plugged and there is no light on the side of the connector but there is light ot the power on the laptop.  As I m working with the laptop, then the charging light lights up and the battery seems to be linked to HQ and charcging.  sometimes says connected but no recharge! When I have the indicator of hip and pricing that could will a few seconds, then disappears and returns to the mode of unloading...

  If I shout down the laptop and let it connect with the brick power then the perception led can be turned off, but after a while turns on and stays on for a long time seems so at the normal charge...

  I know that sounds strange and crazy, but that's what happens...

  That this laptop works properly and I m ok with his performance (to the extent of the rest turned on) I see no reason recycling!

  the only annoying, it's that sometimes can not fresh at all so that it is turned on and of course after a while goes out...

  the battery is an original HP battery and if it is loaded to 100%, last up to an hour and something...

  hope I gave you a complete picture of what's going on with this machine.

  I tried also a few solutions that I found on the internet about the parameters of power controllers, ACPI etc. which seems to fix the problem with the power of microsoft management. This has had a small solution for a few days and then return to the former status. (I don't know if windows restores some steps on their settings)

  If there is a problem of material at the end of the day on the mobo, I would like to know it there is a chip or controller or any other component that I can replace. (I m engnr electronic so I can replace it) I had a few dead HP G61 models with screens broken, etc. or broken mobos

  Thanks in advance

  Hi @Polykarpos,

  You already have the troubleshooting that I would have recommended to you.  At this point, you should contact HP Total Care at 1-800-474-6836 in North America or Start here if you live outside of North America.

• On a new laptop battery life is less than 5 minutes; says it's fully charged

  I bought a Clevo M72S/M721S Mini laptop, a year ago. When I bought it, it had about 10 minutes of battery life. Now, it lasts 5 minutes without the AC is plugged in. When it is plugged in, however, it is said that the battery is charging and is 100%. I don't know if it's a dead battery, a battery life vulnerability in XP, a bad connection or something else. I've never used this thing only on batteries, with the exception of battery life tests. Help, please!

  Critics of this mini are not too abundant, but I found a couple for the re-brand model, and the life of the battery when new, was, on average, about 75 to 90 minutes. Since you never more than 10 minutes BL, and it seems to work fine on AC, my guess would be a bad battery from the beginning. Too bad it's probably out of warranty, but you can try to contact them in any case to see if there is perhaps a battery recall.

  You could try to calibrate the battery. Read this article and see whether or not you want to try it:

• I have a problem with my laptop system restore and I can't open it

  Original title: Please help me
  -----

  Dear friends
  I have a problem of my laptop whit system restore and I can't open it.
  A few days ago, my windows xp reboot both and colud not restart my computer. I had to use my back for recovery system because the other option as in mode without failure or last good configuration didn't ' work corectly.
  This event occure to me several times and I am very confusede on this subject. . I have latest version of avast anti virus in my laptop. Please guide me and give me your solution for my problem towing?
   
  Thank you for your kidness

  What happens and what do you see when you try to open the system restore?

  When you say things "did not work", we need to know which "did not work" means exactly... I get an error message, nothing seems to happen, the system crashes, etc.

  Try answering the following questions, the better you can:

  Maybe someday the dialog box 'ask a question' forums XP will ask these questions automatically when a new thread is started so I don't have to ask every time.  It might even be possible to solve a problem in a single response when enough information is provided.

  Please provide additional information on your system:

  What is your system brand and model?

  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

  The afflicted system has a CD/DVD drive work?

  You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  What you see you don't think you need to see?

  What do not you think that you should see?

  If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

• (Redirected) Technical problem with the laptop warranty

  I just bought a new Inspiron 15 700 series in January and in just 2 months it broke down 2 times. I am a student of the University & without my laptop I miss out on a lot of things. I bought dell because that my last laptop was perfect for 4 years & was held without any problem but this laptop is my worst purchase ever.

  I even called customer service, they kept me waiting for 30 minutes, I do not unplug the phone, the person even took my number and then suddenly disconnected call & he never called back. There was no resolution of the issue, I even he asked the number for the Department and the complaint which it did not. The guy on the call was harsh, I told him that the charger is working & he said, how do you know? I was on a call with the Dell customer 1 hour service & there is no solution. I wasn't expecting this from Dell.

  I am very disappointed by the Dell customer service, its quality is deteriorating. I don't have a laptop of these 3 days, I missed an important presentation because of this. A new laptop to fall twice in 2 months & Dell doesn't care. I would never buy a Dell laptop because of this experience, I would never have let someone in my family buy a Dell & I will post reviews of their service to the customer & product on amazon.

  Extremely disappointed with Dell Service & product.

• BIG PROBLEM with Dell Laptop keyboard - CONTROL seems to be stuck

  The CTRL (left) seems to be stuck in a way. Not like in the operating system that you are stuck where you cannot open stuff but physically. It works and everything, but when I press on the edge of the lower left there feeling like it won't go down any further. Now here's the thing
  I had the EXACT

  Same problem with my ALT key on the top right corner, after hours and hours of press here and find good... The point 'G' {in this term well say it means good} button, who fixed it, but now I have it again with the CTRL key

  and when you tilt your head to the level of keyboards and press gently on the left-hand side of the CTRL key, you will see the L. R left side down and the right side is not, but if I do it with another key to sound normal, balanced sound, pressing on anywhere will descend the whole key.

  Sorry to be paranoid, but it drives me crazy, I don't want to send it in for repair, I tried to drag the undernath paper, there is no food or anything there, I never eat near my laptop - and I tried to suck with vacuum on LOW Power and a sliding brush. Nothing came out. Don't know what to do.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  It won't go down, he's going like halfway and feels more difficult to drive, and I don't want to break it.

  Hello

  There seems to be a hardware problem, I suggest you to contact Dell for assistance.
