Re: Equium A300 - 16 c RM-70 - refuses to turn on

Hi * types * :)

My laptop is a TOSHIBA Satellite A300 - 16 c RM-70 and was purchased in September ' 08, he was used regularly until July 2010, when it turned off and won't start.
For about 6 months before that, the laptop overheats when laying on my bed often and turn off. I had my battery tested lead charger and it works. But he has not started since that date.

When I press the power on button, the light of laptop computer startup turns.

I don't know if it's a problem of simple battery or a more serious problem.

Thank you for your help in advance guys

If you cannot start your laptop with AC power only (battery removed) that there must be serious hardware problem. When the laptop is placed on the bed of ventilation at the bottom is blocked and portable cannot be cooled properly so I think your laptop was probably overheated and lead was suddenly shut down.

On the virtual path that is not easy to offer the exact diagnosis, but it may be possible that your laptop is serious material injury due to overheating problems.

I think the best option for you is to contact Toshiba service and ask for help. They can check the hardware of laptops and say with certainty what can be done about it.

  • Registration of windows to Equium A300

    Hey there,

    has recently obtained an Equium A300 and opening windows, you will need to enter your product key, or else just get limited functions. Found on the bottom of the laptop, but the warning keeps coming up 'the key is incorrect. I checked several times and spruced up in upper/lower case, added the dashes... and now.

    The product was preinstalled by the shop, what do I do, I don t want to lose the features!
    Any help would be great

    Hello Lori

    Sorry, but you have misunderstood something. For the pre-installed operating system Windows Vista you don't need registration. You need registration if you want to use Microsoft OFFICE trial version.

    If please connect your laptop to the Internet and start it. Just follow the instructions on the screen and you will be able to use this limited trial version. If you like it, you must purchase a valid license.

  • Satellite R630 - 11L refuses to turn on the backlight

    I'm busy, having a glance at someone R630 - 11L who refuses to turn on the backlight. I am suspecting the lid sensor does not work correctly because the device also refuses to go to sleep if you close the lid. The only problem I have with this theory is that for the life of me I can't find the sensor.

    Any ideas where it is located? Is there one on this model?

    Sorry, but how do you mean with refuses to turn on the backlight?

    Have you noticed all these problems with the factory settings, or you may have installed version of the OS?
    With original preinstalled OS, everything should work fine.

    As far as I know there must be some small hidden switch that controls all of these actions.

  • Satellite Pro 6050 refuses to turn on

    Hello

    Someone has encountered this problem before? My 6050 Pro Satellite refuses to turn on.

    There is no indication of activity when I press the button 'on', but when it is plugged into the "trendy area" power and "recharge battery" are turned on. I tried the same battery in another laptop and it starts well (remove a battery missed as cause of the problem).

    Any thoughts... ? Your help is most appreciated.

    I think the problem is the power button. If you press it, and there is no reaction, it must be faulty. So, you can only go to a SPA to get this repaired.

  • OEM Windows XP - can I move it to a new PC? And MSE refuses to turn on real-time protection

    I have been using my Windows XP for 8-9 years now (since 2004) and I am looking for an upgrade of the unit, because the specifications of my mobile phone exceeds my computer and it cannot manage tasks effectively.

    I'll be able to transfer my current operating system on the new computer? The old computer is no longer to be used. I have all the original documentation for the computer (However, the license key is on the back of the CPU). I have read conflicting answers online saying that how it is against the EULA and others say that a phone call to Microsoft to check that she would work.

    I do not have an upgrade of the OS, since my external 500 GB hard drive only reads on my Windows XP (I tried on a Windows Vista, Windows 7 and computer Developer Preview, all told, it has been altered) and all my programs are installed on the external hard drive. If an upgrade of the OS is necessary, it would be nice to have a tool to repair my 'corrupt' hard disk restore compatibility with other computers.

    * EDIT, this information can be shaped *.
    The computer is stuck on the screen of the BIOS for a little more than 30 minutes if the manufacturer's mouse is not connected. The mouse does not work also.
    In respect to the keyboard manufacturer (PSP connector) which is lacking after a quantity of time and requires Numlock/Capslock be pressed to the screen to reactivate. Every button I press while he was free is then made a leap to the computer.
    I now use a PSP Converter USB for keyboard port, which now feeds my usb speakers. I also now use a combo of keyboard and mouse Microsoft Wireless 600.

    MSE also recently decided to pack and to no longer offer protection in real time from the computer. I tried to solve this problem myself for the month and the program still refuses to turn on protection in real time, even after a reinstall. Here is a SS of the error code.

    OEM licenses are "linked to the hip" to first on what computer it is installed.  When this computer dies or consider you otherwise out of service, the license dies with him.  Each OEM manufacturer provided a method to ensure that a transfer will not happen.  You cannot transfer it to a new computer.  To install Windows XP on a new computer, at a minimum, you will need to get a retail license for Windows XP (which are no longer available on the market).  In addition, you may find that your new machine contains chips day and components that were never supported by the drivers Windows XP - XP so maybe never run on your computer up to date.

    Programs need to be reinstalled.  You cannot simply connect an external hard drive with programs installed on another machine and expect it to work.  The system registry is suitable for the material on a specific computer and its applications installed and cannot simply be moved to a computer containing a different material.

    Your choice of only reasonable upgrade is to buy a new computer with an operating system that supports it and re - install your applications.  Your external drive * should * work on XP via the last Windows OS.  Try to perform an operation of "chkdsk/r" on your hard drive to make sure it is not damaged.  If it still does not respond, and then save the data elsewhere, reformat the disk on a Windows 7 computer and then put the data on the disk.

  • Equium A300 boot not upward or HARD drive or ODD

    Looks like I have the same problem on my A300 16 months old but a bit more complex. The HARD drive light does not come on (sometimes and I get the starting test 'not found media'. tried booting from the recovery disk, but it seems that the CD rom is also intermittent at startup.)

    Tried to put the Bios on the CD, but when the cd turn nothing loaded. tried the new HARD drive but no response either. Is the power, the same drive HARD and the same CD?

    Any suggestions someone like her looks that I now have an expensive brick.

    Hello

    The HARD drive is listed in the BIOS?
    You should check this out! In the BIOS, you should see details of the HARD drive (size, name, etc.)

    > the power the same drive HARD and the same CD?
    The STRANGE and HARD drive are connected to two different controllers which are placed on the motherboard. Both controllers work independently of each other.
    Even if only one controller is defective, the other controller should function properly, and the device connected to the controller of such should be recognized.

    Have you tried to start using different disks; for example, the Linux CD or another disk (no recovery).
    Should do it.

    The best procedure is it;
    Turn on the device, press F12, then you should see all the boot devices possible.
    Then choose ODD (CD/DVD drive) and follow the start-up procedure

    If this is not possible, then a serious hardware problem is possible

  • Satellite A300 - no power light and won't turn on

    Hello:

    My satellite A300 fell off my office. It has been disconnected.
    A few hours later, I tried to turn it on, but does not work when I plug the ac cable lights that turn on normally.
    Ive opened to check if there is nothing broken, but it seems all good.
    What can I do?

    My battery is dead, so I can't do anything with it.

    on the virtual path that is not easy to say what the problem is here, but if there is no reaction and led DC is not on I assume that there is a problem with the power of electronic power supply on the motherboard.

    Visually, everything can be OK, but some connectors are probably damaged.
    Repair (Exchange motherboard) is quite expensive, so I think you should sell it on eBay and get any other machine.

    Satellite A300's beautiful machine, and you can get another A300 used on eBay for about 100-150 Euros.

  • Equium A60 - 155 clicks when I try to turn it on

    Hey

    I was wondering if any1 could help me. I recently put a toshiba equium a60-155 without a power adapter, also without battery but the store are previding by toshiba as soon as possible. so I put a power adapter and plugged - DC IN light turns green so everything seems good but then when I try to turn it on just click and the keyboard lights flash, then nothing happens - if I hold down the power button everything that just clicks and flashes. is it because I dnt for a battery? -I don't think dnt. any other ideas?

    see you soon

    Josh

    Hi Josh,.

    Your A60 equipped with a pre-installed system or you have set up your system CD provided?

    Your laptop must turn on without the battery, so it is possible that there is no operating system installed for the time being installed.

    Have you had the correct PSU for your A60? Your card must be able to supply sufficient power for the laptop or that it does not start.

  • Satellite P10: Wireless Radio refuses to turn on

    I got a wireless Broadcom BCM4306 (mini-PCI) adapter and put it in my laptop. The specifications of the laptop are:

    Toshiba Satellite P10, 768 MB of RAM (256 upgrade) & 2.66 GHz P4 (HT disabled).

    The wireless adapter works on another laptop, but not on this one as the guard software complain that the radio is turned off. In the Windows wireless network configuration, it is enabled, but the software doesn't seem to see it. The wireless switch is turned on, but the wireless light is not on i assuming that it lights up when a wireless adapter is present and active. By pressing Fn + F8 does nothing more, no logo appears on the screen for this function or makes no noise.

    I have no idea what is the problem, but any help would be appreciated.

    Hi, I read in the forums that covering the 11 pin and PIN 13 of the mini-pci card can make your card can be used. However, it seems that there is no way, for now, to make the change in hardware to work.
    You can do a search in this forum, or if you can go on TechSpot.com forum and do a search for "Toshiba Wifi network" in "storage and networking", you will find the message in question. As for me, I got a Toshiba (g) MiniPCI card in my Tecra 9100. It works, but the hardware switch does not work. (The led is off, regardless of the position of the switch hardware, but the card works and there is absolutely no problem to connect. If you discover something, thanks for posting.
    Good luck!
