Question about Satellite C55 - has battery

My battery is never charged over 59%. It says "plugged in, load", but no. load more than 59%. C55 - A satellite

One of the reasons why the battery doesn't charge. could be activated Eco charge mode.

More details:
http://www.MyToshiba.com.au/support/items/FAQ/847

But I think that if you have already activated this option, the question might be linked to the failure of the battery.

The laptop is still covered by the warranty?
If Yes, you can try to contact a service center to verify and if necessary to replace the battery.

  • Question about Satellite Pro L100 battery

    I have a Satellite Pro L100 with a model PA3450U-1BRS battery. My friend gave my number model PA342OU-1BRS L10 battery.

    Would this work in my laptop? What means 4300mAh? Mine has 2000mAh? Thanks for any help.

    Hello

    I don't know if it would work, the most important thing is that the tension specific to your machine. The battery fits in your machine (I mean in your battery housing?).

    The mAh xxxx means the ability, so if you have more capacity then your machine will run longer on battery.

    But if I were you I wouldn to experiment with my machine, because if you put the battery in the machine and batt damage your system, then you haven´t no warranty and your computer will become a heavy paperweight.

  • Satellite C55 - Has - 1 L 0 does not start in Windows 8

    Hey guys.
    I hope you can help me a bit.
    I have a Toshiba Satellite C55 - has - 1 L 0 here and it does not start in Windows 8.

    I turn it on, the Toshiba start screen appears, and then I get a message on a black screen saying "media control" (failure) and after a little while "no boot device. Please restart.

    I checked the BiOS and it does not see the hard drive (said HARD drive - no) and even in the boot order list, I don't get a list with the DVD drive with the exact name, but for the HARD drive.
    I tried to do a recocery with the F12 key and get the list to choosw where I want to start but by selecting the disk hard does not work.

    So I thought I'd try a live distribution of linux to see where is my hard drive and back up my data (after some settings in the BIOS - boot CMS mode) but I can't find there too. (I have a file fstab and mtab, it would help if I posted it here?)
    Is my HARD drive broken? Can I try something else?

    Thank you very much!

    You are right. This issue should be fixed by the authorized service provider.
    Furthermore, why do some risk steps to check this problem, if the warranty is valid.
    Warranty will cover the repair costs.

    Addresses and phone numbers, you can find on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/generic/ASP_SUPPORT/

  • Questions about Satellite P10 554

    Hello

    I have 2 questions about my P10-554. I read on this forum but can't find anything that helps out me.

    First of all:
    When I try to turn the unit off after working, using even the closing of xp function or the power button, windows normally quit, but when it needs to turn off just reboot again. If I repeat the closing down directly after this restart, normally it turns off.
    This problem occur only when I use the power supply in battery mode.
    I can't say that to me...

    Second:
    I have a mini PCI Wlan card for my unit, works very well, but I wonder if it is possible to get the Wlan switch switch work whith it? Or is it only possible whith some special maps? It is not so important, but it would be nice to know if there is a trick or something to get the switch used.

    Best regards
    Gabbagandalf

    Hello

    Regarding your first question;
    I'm a bit confused of m are sure you n t use the restart option?
    I never noticed anything like that on my laptop

    Usually, if I use the Shut down option, I can choose between standby, hibernation, restart and shutdown. If I use the stop that the laptop turns off as it should.
    Maybe it's time to s for a reinstallation of the OS?

    On the second question.
    The switch on the left side for laptop was designed and developed to pass on the WLan card antenna.
    Usually, you should be able to use this switch and to toggle WLan card functionality

    Don t understand why it should not work?  :|

  • Questions about Satellite P200D battery charging

    Hi all
    I bought my satellite in March 2008, and after some initial problems with the result having replaced, I have finally been sorted and have had very few problems since. However, in recent days, this is all changed. My battery is now practically refusing to load and run not power off. At the moment its operation off power supply and load, but for the past hour its been hurtling battery.

    What going on it when I plug in the AC adapter, the light making goes blue and seeing power begins blue and flashing orange (constantly between the two colors) and the battery light flashes orange. The HARD drive light is also blue.

    I don't know if the problem is the battery or another problem with the power actually do to the computer. The fact that it fits as being plugged in all time leads me to believe that the power adapter is not the issue, while its battery not wanting to take new service charges, or another issue with the laptop not properly in the face of the power to be.

    Someone at - it ideas? I scoured google and have not been able to find anything on this problem. I bought the laptop through Curry, but I don't want to pay a pound and a half a minute to talk to The Tech Guys, when they most likely wasting time asking me if I rebooted it.

    Looks like there could be a hardware problem. Take it to an ASP for warranty repair.

  • Question about Satellite L300 battery

    I heard that when the lap top is the power of the adapter, that there is no need battery, you can take off from the top of the tower and keep right on adapter without battery.
    Is this true?

    If the AC adapter is plugged you don t need the battery, that of right, but you do need to no delete it.

    For example, I often work with AC/DC adapter but I never remove the battery.

  • Questions about Satellite M50 130

    Hi all!

    I just got my first Toshiba NB - could not decide between them or another but heard so many horror stories about others, I went to Toshiba and I am very happy.

    However, two questions please:

    (a) the laptop is VERY hot to the touch - what is usual and it's dangerous.
    (b) my model has a 14 '' Trubrite screen, but the quality of the photos on it for DVD movies is poor compared with a DVD player - is this rare? and you can only watch the DVD from a certain angle of the screen - once again, it is because of the screen trubite?

    Thank you very much

    Congratulations on your new laptop.

    in response to your questions

    (A) the fact that you say it is to warm, although VERY is not a problem. If you said it was very hot, then I'd be concerned. Machines are designed to shut down and turn off if then become hot. Although I'd be worried if you said it was hot around the battery area. So, if you can let us know where it's hot?
    (B) when you say poor, how do you say. In theory, they should be better than a TV because of best image signals. Have you tried more than one DVD?

  • Different questions about Satellite L855

    Dear community of Toshiba...

    I bought a Toshiba laptop as for my study Mediadevelopment a year and half ago. I got Toshiba Satellite L855 edition.

    When I received my order, I was very happy with it and I knew that I would succeed on this nice unit programming.

    After 3 weeks of use, I already had a scratch right next to the camera. And I must admit I really handled the phone with care. I ordered a case of neck and he had with me in a laptop bag. Even when the lid is closed there is small scratches around my laptop and it started to worry about what would happen.

    While watching an episode of the game of Thrones. I noticed a red dot... just in the middle of the screen. And I don't want to be arrogant, but I have to say that it's not cool when you already have a failure of pixel using a laptop as about 1 month.

    I received an update of a driver of my DVD player tray. And toshiba TEMPRO told me there was a BLUERAY drive in my notebook... but this was not true... Just another point that disappointed me.

    I ordered an upgrade for Windows 8... So I was able to develop applications for Windows 8. It's a very nice OS BUT I can't use my brightness buttons yet more... The display goes just in black, and aint there is no way to fix it, but to restart my computer and that is very annoying when you are programming.

    The fan on my AMD card also gets really hot while doing nothing. I know how to check if there are a lot of processes running, but it heats up by simple same process (it's even my glass cool soda Cook until temperature hot lol!)

    And now also the reason why I ask for your support here, when I close the lid of my laptop. It closes smoothly... There is a crackling sound and the back cover looks like it rises while I close the lid.

    Now after all I lost a little hope in my notebook. And I repeat, that I really handled it with care... I don't even dare to walk with her while she is closed in my hand. But those things so much that makes me sad. Just because of I still need to study 3 years more and had to pay a lot of money for this... I'm sad that sooner or later things will just get worse...

    I therefore ask you guys, you people don't know what I can do?

    Kind regards

    PS: Sorry for my English!
    Jay

    Hi Jay

    In general the notebooks are not so sensitive devices so I put t know how all this can happen, I mean with scratches and clicking noise. It is logical that laptop may not always be as good as new.
    I handle my books carefully, too, but they are not in perfect condition more.
    Cooling fan: try to reduce the activity of fan cooling cooling method to change option.
    Control Panel > power options > change the power plan settings > power plan advanced options > Toshiba power Saver saver > cooling method change for optimized battery
    This should reduce the activity of fan cooling.

    > Then I ask you guys, people you know what I can do?
    It is not easy to give you the correct answer to this question. What you can try is to contact Toshiba service and ask for a tip. They should have experience with this, and they are in constant contact with Toshiba, so they should have enough information about the situation.

    By the way: several people have reported on this message Tempro. You should not be disappointed on this matter. It is an automatic procedure and such errors may occur.

  • Question on Satellite C50-B919 battery charging

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite C50-B919, I bought 9 months ago... IT was working fine but all of a sudden it stopped working without the charger is plugged in!

    I need to plug the charger all the time!

    At the start, it shows that the RTC is low and I need to set the time... I tried to follow the instructions and set the time as well... but it has not yet changed something... once the charger is taken off, it turns off!

    Help, please!

    Waiting for your answer!

    Hello

    RTC battery seems to be empty, and that's why the BIOS data and time will be reset always when connected the isn t AC adapter.
    The RTC battery, you have to keep the power adapter plugged in for about 18 to 20 hours and the laptop must be turned on!
    Then the RTC battery would charge.

    However, the main battery seems to be empty too and does it not charge more.
    You will probably need to replace the main battery.

  • A few questions about satellite L10-186 and L10-102

    Some stores in my city model offers a L10-186. The technical parameters are described the same L10 - 102 (only the amount of RAM is different).
    I can't find detailed information because the L10-186 model does NOT exist on Toshiba pages (!)

    Nobody knows:
    1. what exactly are the differences between L10-186 and L10 - 102?
    2. If I buy an extra battery - universal battery fits all laptop L10 for example can I use it with L10-101 too?

    Alternatively, if Toshiba has a support email address in order to write and ask? I can't find contact e-mail with Toshiba experts anywhere.

    Thanks for your help in advance,
    Peter Thaler

    Hi Piotr

    I guess satellite L10-186 is your specific country and you can't find it on the site of Toshiba Europe. If you find any information on the Toshiba site please try to find a dealer in your country that sells this laptop. I checked on Google Ant lots from the southeast of Europe.

    The only difference I have found is the RAM. L10 - 102 has only 256 MB of RAM and 512 MB of RAM L10 - 186.
    As far as I know that the battery needs to adapt to the L10 series.

    Good luck!

  • Question about Satellite A200 - 13L

    Hallo,

    I would like to buy a Toshiba laptop. The Satellite A200 - 13L series isn't already available. So a store told me that there are products of follower: Toshiba Satellite Pro A200 with 2 x 2.2 GHz!

    But the new collection hasn t the best system the older one, and a black keyboard.
    What can I do? Pending?

    The specification of it is very good, but I need the old box with a white keyboard and a system of his best.

    Hello

    Sorry, but it is not easy to say what you need to do. You have your opinion and your own priorities. Inform you about all the models available and make a decision. Don't buy something if you're not 100% sure that you want it to be.

    For me design is very important, but the hardware is much more important to me. Make sure that the laptop has graphics card good, enough RAM and all that you have to work for every day (WLAN, BT, perhaps of the webcam and so on).

  • Question about Satellite A30-power adapter

    Hello

    Believe me: it s better to use than stuff unnamed original equipment. On the one hand, you win money and if your machine is broken due to a power adapter that gives your machine
    a wrong voltage or whatever.

    I had a great experience with my tecra 8100 a few years ago:

    My old AC was broken, so I bought one in a store, which has been declared as "corresponds to 100% and blablabla".

    Cost: $ 37

    After a while my machine freezes sometimes and for a day-> no boot.
    Then I gave my machine to fix after they have made their diagnosis, they asked, what sort of AC, I used. Heh? They explained to me, I used the AC adapter was not a constant voltage,
    If some capacitors smd-says 'goodbye '.

    You can save money, but give you him another side, believe me.

    Welcome them

  • Tecra M3: Question about the length of battery life

    I used to have a M2 which had a battery life of approximately 3 hours and 45 minutes. Last January, I had a M3 and was surprised it was only 1:30 running just Word and a memory low music program. Closing of the screen and running the program of music made him until 1:45. I thought it was because he had a faster processor, etc., but two of my friends also had Toshibas and they thought it was a battery problem.
    So what is the battery life of the 1.83 GHZ M3 supposed to be?

    Hello

    According to the description of the unit, the battery should run about 3 hours.
    But the battery working time depends on many different things, and this isn't a precise value. CA? s very important how you use Notepad, what programs are running, how old is the battery, how devices run is together, etca? ¦
    In this case generally Ca? s not easy to tell if the battery has a fault or not.
