• Satellite A100-383 does not start - not battery

  Hello.

  I have an old Toshiba Satellite A100 - 383.
  Recent months its battery will remain as defendant for 20-25 minutes.

  OK, that's an old laptop, it's normal, I thought... I connected the laptop to the grid and I haven´t you have any problem. I stayed several hours with the laptop with no problems.

  But yerstarday, the laptop was closed suddenly and now, do not start. I see that the battery symbol flashes 11 times.

  So I have a few questions:

  1 - this laptop, works not connected to the network * without * battery? I thought it was possible...

  2 - What is the problem? Battery? Charger? How I know this?

  3-If the problem is the battery, how much would a new?

  Thank you very much. (and sorry for my English).

  > But, yesterday, the laptop was closed suddenly and now, do not start. I see that the battery symbol flashes 11 times.

  Usually the laptop automatically stops due to high temperatures. Is the kind of physical protection, but after a few minutes, you should be able to turn on the device, the led flashing could mean that there is a problem with the electronic power supply on the motherboard means that the motherboard is affected.

  You can try after bypass. :
  Remove the dough (if it is not already removed), unplug the AC adapter, press the power button / stop for 30 seconds.
  Now, plug in the AC adapter and try to turn on the unit.

  > 1 - this laptop, works not connected to the network without battery? I thought it was possible...
  Generally, it should be possible to use the laptop without the battery.

  > 2 - what is the problem? Battery? Charger? How I know this?
  Not easy to say: If the laptop powers not even using the power adapter, a power adapter or the motherboard might not work. If the two parties must be verified by the technician.

  > 3 - If the problem is the battery, how much would a new?
  Don t think that its battery from the laptop should run with adapter only

• Satellite A100-590 does not start anymoore

  Hello
  of course, I deleted some system files and my satellite will not start, if I use the secure mode, the system starts but the Black Guard Office and the cursor flashes in the upper left corner.
  Also, I disconnected the battery, not distributed with the power system, the result was the same.

  I asked the support of Toshiba, they only referred to the Toshiba Recovery CD but it will be Formate my full disks and I lose all my data.

  Does anyone know, where to find a boot cd to repair my xp family?

  Thank you very much for your help.

  Hello

  < does="" anybody="" know,="" where="" to="" get="" a="" boot="" cd="" to="" repair="" my="" xp="">

  How to purchase the Microsoft Windows CD?
  You should know that the Toshiba Recovery CD only contains the ghost of image files and it s not the same as an original CD of Windows!

  If you want to make sure your data from the internal HARD drive, I would recommend to put the laptop HARD drive in an external USB box and then you will be able to connect the HARD drive to another computer. Then, you can safe you data on the other HARD drive.

  If you want to use external case so I put t see otherwise to use the Toshiba Recovery CD or the Windows CD.

• Satellite A100-233 does not start Win XP

  Hello

  When I was working on my A100-233 it suddenly hung up, only the touchpad worked. I try Ctrl Alt Del, but no use. After that the laptop start peeping (a long peep) until I stopped it by power.
  When I restart, the windows did not start (black screen) even in safe mode (it listed some files and stop there).

  Finally, I tried to re - install windows by its restore CD. Stop the CD after loading and display 'pleas wait. "
  Also, I try to start MS-DOS form ok. But there is no hard drive (C: D: E :) nothing.)

  But the BIOS recognizes the hard drive, when I connect my hard drive to a USB port on a different computer, it worked, I saw all the data.

  So what happens on my laptop.

  So in my opinion there would be something wrong with the hardware.
  Maybe it's something wrong with the HARD drive partition table or the memory as you know it is always difficult to say what might be wrong s s.

  As San Remo said an attempt to set the BIOS default settings and check if the HARD drive is correctly recognized.
  Then format the drive HARD integer (delete all partitions) and try to reinstall Win OS.
  In your case, I will try to reinstall the operating system from the original CD of MS Windows XP too.

  If you fail the pieces of unique equipment as the RAM and the HARD drive must be verified.

  Good luck

• Dv6 6155TX: laptop does not start. Black screen. LED, work of fan key, function

  Hi, my laptop is not starting, not even the BIOS or the manufacturer logo. I checked the RAM, tried to reset the CMOS battery, removed the HARD drive. At first, it worked for 2 - 3 times, but after 5-6 hours when I turned it on, it does not. I don't think that this is a display problem because windows key + B produces no beep. CPU fan works fine. Help, please.

  Hi, the problem was the corruption of the BIOS because of power failure. I have reset the BIOS of the USB.

  Thanks for you answers.

• Satellite L775D-107 is not starting and black screen

  Hey
  I have a problem with my Toshiba Satellite L775D-107 and I hope you can help me.
  Since yesterday, my laptop displays a black screen. When I push the Start button, nothing happens, but you can hear it is aired but nothing more. a few hours before that I was working on it to Uni and everything was fine.

  I had the same problem a couple of weeks, and I read on the internet that he could help out the battery for 3 minutes and then press F2 and the Start button. Nothing happened, but after 2 hours I tried to start again and all of a sudden it started correctly and worked flawlessly.
  .
  Now I'm having the same problem again and I tried the same procedure but still nothing happens. Always the black screen and just the sound of the air coming out...

  I've got very important documents in United on this laptop, so I hope you can help me.

  Thank you in advance.

  Hey

  My L50 did the same thing. Sometimes, when an another Toshiba is nearby.

• A80 - 154 does not start - only black screen with strange resolution

  Hello!

  I have a big problem with the laptop. When I start it the power led and battery LED or power plug LED is blue (depending on what energy source is used, the problem appears both!). It's normal. But you don't see anything on the LCD screen. And nothing happens. Are lit, display is not black, no sound of the HARD drive or the fan. When I connected my external 17 '' TFT, he says that there is a signal, but the screen remained black.

  The signal has a resolution of 720 x 400 70 Hz, which is a very exotic resolution and a strange frequency! Anyone has any idea what it could be? I connected no matter what USB or other device. Only the laptop with or without the battery.

  Hello

  Well, it's not easy to say what may be the problem. I think it s a hardware malfunction, but I don t know which part might have a failure. Maybe it's something wrong with a CPU or memory modules s.
  In this case, I recommend to contact the service partner. He can do some tests.

• Satellite A100-283 - does not start every time so I've created workaround

  Hey guys,.

  I have a problem with my A100-283. A few weeks ago the laptop just hung and I stopped it the hard way by removing just the battery (I know, bad idea, shouldn't have done...)

  After that it wouldn't start. Or through battery with the adapter is plugged. There was no more noise fan, or beep or anything like that, just a few LEDs + turn signals for a fraction of a second (capslock + numlock and some of the front LEDs).

  The next day I tried again - and it booted up fine, everything seemed to work again. But off it again the same problem appeared.
  Now there is no more guarantee on the A100, so I disassembled and welded in a new BIOS battery because I thought that this could be the problem.
  After reassembling, the problem remains.

  * But now I found a 'solution' to get the boot the laptop upward once again, *.
  It is just that it's really annoying to have to do this every time you start. Sometimes it always starts in the usual way, I think that it always depended on time, it has been turned off. The book has been extinguished, more lucky to start normally.

  But back to the workaround. I press the power button, the LEDs blink in no time. I continue to press the button, and after 5 seconds or more, the LEDs blink once (I think that the laptop lights somehow without any fan noise or anything, and if I continue to press on, it stops again). After that, I always do it by pressing the button for 10 seconds. Subsequently, I release her and push it again and it will start up just as it should. This method works 10 out of 10 times.

  Now, someone please tell me, is it possible to run the normal way?
  An update of the BIOS might help? My BIOS version is 2.00.

  Please do not come upwards with the support from Toshiba, as I already don't said, no guarantee, then it would probably be cheaper to buy just one more...

  Hope someone has an idea.

  > More book was off, more a chance to start normally
  Perhaps this problem could be related to overheating I mean if the temperature of parts would be more raised then usual, then such question could appear

  Unfortunately, but it's the only plausible explanation for me

  The issue could also well be linked to the motherboard failure, everything is possible

  But I see you don't want to hear about ASP and laptop technicians. Well in this case, you will have to diagnose the failure yourself

  Good luck

• Satellite A100-912 - does not start

  Hi all...

  I have a big problem... After that I open my Toshiba, everything worked well. Purpose to disassemble my phone was reset CMOS password and that went well. While it was open, computer was working fine but after a while, maybe five minutes, computer start making some problems on my head :)

  Now I see that after I press POWER / TURN on the computer begins to power, cooler is spining, it attempts to boot from the DVD - ROM, but there is no image on the screen, even when I connect it to the external display. I did not do anything with GPU, it should be OK.
  Is there maybe some types of "mine" or how to say, something that must be pressed which should work ok once again before start?

  PLEASE HELP ME

  Hello!

  Why did you disassemble your laptop?

  However, check if the RAM is placed correctly in the slot and put the new one.

  Try to remove the battery and the AC adapter, wait up to 1 hour and then connect the battery and AC adapter. Try restarting the laptop.

  In the worst case, there is something wrong with the motherboard and it should be replaced. :(

  Good bye

• Satellite A200-1BJ does not start

  Hello

  My Satellite A200-1BJ does not start. After turning on the button it starts only for 1 or 2 seconds (flashing light, work from HDD, fan work, display blank) and then it turns off automatically. Once it happened days before but I didn't have the time to solve it and over the next few days, he has not occurred. Now, I tried to launch it more than 20 times and it still won't start.

  I tried only with full battery and also only with the power adapter. I removed the HDD, RAM, keyboard, DVD, speakers, display and a few other connector under the keyboard and it still does not start and it shuts down after 1-2 seconds each time.

  In recent months he sometimes exploded due to overheating during work so I cleaned the dust inside.

  No problem with the motherboard or power?

  Thanks for help.

  Hmmm... on this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is. described behavior is the same as in cases when the BIOS is dead after failed BIOS update installation.

  Of course, it's mainboard problem but what exactly, it is not easy to say. For me, this looks like faulty BIOS.

  Have you installed any updates or anything that may be responsible for this?

• Why Satellite Pro A300 does not start when you press the power button?

  Suddenly my new Satellite Pro A300 does not start correctly when you press the power button. The situation is the following: when I press the power button is displayed the opening of Toshiba (Leading Innovation) and the disappers image quickly. Then there is a black screen for about 30 seconds. There is a rectangular frame with the text Microsoft Corporation under. And nothing happens however long wait.

  In order to get with the trial starting I then shut down the computer by pressing the power button until the computer turns off. ("The hard way to close")
  Now, I press the power button shortly to turn on the computer. Then, the computer starts normally with the photo to open Toshiba and after a few seconds, I wonder to open the computer in safe mode or in normal mode. I now choose to open in normal mode and the computer opens normally and is ready to work.

  What should I do to get a normal departure procedure?

  When the laptop starts normally (after choosing normal mode) stop your laptop properly using START > shut down option. Next launch should be normal.

  When the OS is moving towards the low irregularly will always ask you how to start this new (secure or normal mode).
  The same thing happen on my Satellite A300.

• Satellite C650 - Windows does not start correctly

  I have a Satellite C650, who does not start, when it lights there are two options, Startup Repair launch which leads to a black screen and mobile arrow, the screen remains like that until you turn it off the button stop (seriously ive left for about 10 hours). The other option is to start windows normally resulting in a blue screen and the laptop restarts itself.

  Help me please, make things worse I can't find the box that it came in which contains the guarantee and recovery disc

  Hey Buddy,

  You can start your laptop in safe mode? This means that if you press the F8 key before Windows starts and you choose Safe mode can you start Windows?

  If this isn't the case I think that it s something wrong with your Windows installation and that's why you need to use the Toshiba Recovery disk to restore to factory settings.

  Hello

  This does not seem very well! Would you see the Toshiba logo red when you try to start because when you do not see the Toshiba logo there is a failure that is quite sure of the hardwaree!

  How long it works when it is started?

  Have you changed any hardware in the past?

  Tips: Your Satellite 1405-S151 is an American model.

  So if you want to install drivers or to do a BIOS update to go to the following site

• Satellite 1800-400 does not start, or crashes after upgrading RAM

  I have the original configuration of RAM for the S1800-400 with 120 MB. I bought a 256 MB RAM with the following description: EXT256-3069/JR, MEM 256 MB RA Toshiba Satellite PRO 4600 series C650, PIII-7500/750/800 #PA3069U (I think the brand is Transcend).

  When I put this slot in the machine, keeping the original and start the computer, it does not start, either on the initial screen of freezing before downloading anything either or that goes to the screen where you can start it in safe mode, but then it does not start.

  I removed the new RAM and it works well again.

  What can be the problem:

  (1) is this new RAM is not compatible with the computer? Based on the selections of the internet service provider, it should be (it's a Portuguese company with their own memory configuration options).

  (2) the computer can work with the original 120Mo and the new 256 MB, or should it be both the same size/brand?

  (3) is there any other problem that I don't have?

  TKS

  Hi Ricardo

  I agree with feliks.
  The module is not compatible and not taken in charge can be responsible for your problem.
  The best way is to use the Toshiba recommended of the memory modules.
