Re: Satellite U400: battery does not

Hello

just bought my Toshiba U400-10 x and when I start it up until he can find any battery and if I unplug the cable load he just died... What is the problem? Help, please!

Hi mate

I have a U400 too. I m very satisfied with this unit.
It of small, but not too small. The power of the battery is OK. I can run for about 3 hours using the battery power. Of course, I use only some desktop applications, but that's what I want to have
I hope that your laptop U400 will happen and you may be happy as I am.

  • Satellite L30 - battery does not charge

    I have a Satellite L30 and the battery does not seem to charge.

    The battery keeps flickering light with yellow outside. I can use the laptop when I am connected but when if I'm moving to much the battery seems to lose the connection to the AC adapter.

    I don't know if it's the battery or something else.
    Can anyone help?

    Please, remove the battery and use laptop with AC adapter only. I imagine that you will be able to use your laptop properly. When the laptop is ON put the battery back in place and let us know if the battery led will continue to Flash.

    If Yes, I'm pretty sure the battery is dead and you need a new.

  • Satellite L650D battery does not charge

    Hello.

    My laptop model is Toshiba Satellite L650D PSK1SE.

    Recently I have updated my BIOS to v1.80, because there was a problem with the installation of Linux, which is solved in v1.80. Then, I met another problem - my laptop could not hibernate.

    This problem suddenly disapperared after a few months, but then battery stopped charging.
    When I plug my laptop, Windows 7 says "plugged in, not of charge, percentage: number.

    Sorry, I can't write exactly what message because for me, it's in Russian. But it's something like that. Ubuntu says that the battery is OK and the charge, but in fact, it is not.

    It starts to load when I deattach my battery and attach it back physically.

    Toshiba PC Health Monitor says my battery is OK. Also I noticed that Eco Utility DOES NOT WORK when this question appears.

    This happens usually when I use a cell phone for a few days while it is in hibernation.

    That's all.
    Sorry for the bad English. Looking forward for your help.

    Hello

    I can't imagine that this problem could be linked to the new BIOS
    But try this:

    -access the BIOS and set it to the default value (press F9 to get default and save changes by pressing F10)
    -close the laptop and unplug the battery adapter and ac
    -Press and hold the power button / stop along 30 sec.
    -connect the battery and ac adapter and turn on the device
    -check if the battery can be charged.

  • Satellite U400-217 - does not of media control buttons

    Hey all,.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite U400-217, which is one year old.

    For some reason any lately the light on the media controls button doesn't seem to work - where he usually lit up the touchpad line and writing of Satellite. Other media control buttons seem to work well. If I hit the light button, it turns on for a second to tell me his touchdown then disappears and nothing happens.
    What could be the problem?

    I have searched several sites looking for a response, but can't seem to find it, I even looked for the driver, but could not find this not even on the Toshiba site - I have no idea of what is still called the driver. I also tried turning the phone off, remove the battery, put the battery back in and connect to the charger. With no luck. Help would be very appreciated: I hope someone can give me information to operate! Thank you in advance,

    Julie

  • Satellite L20 - battery does not work

    Hello! Today, I tried to turn on my laptop only with the battery and does not work. When I connect charger green light lights up but when I disconect charger all disappeared... .not workink... Whats happened? :(

    Hello

    Sounds like a dead battery.
    How old is your laptop and how long have you used the battery?

    As I remember, the duration of battery life decreases after about 1.5 to 2 years.
    It is approximately 500 loading and unloading procedures.
    For me it s not unusual that the performance of the battery goes down because the similar symptom happens for example with a cell phone battery.
    I think you should ask the Toshiba service partner in your country for the new battery.

  • Satellite A110 battery does not & will not work if the battery is connected

    Hello

    I will try to regain control of the situation quite clearly.

    Product: Toshiba Satellite A110-149

    Works fine on AC adapter / CC (Eve just a summary of the problem but because of Gentoo Linux, this used to work under Windows XP)

    Original battery was dead. Not only there is no charge, but with this battery and the AC adapter absolutely nothing, not a single LED. No need to mention that I couldn't turn on the computer.

    Bought a new battery at Eforcity.com
    -Replace: PA3465U-1BRS | 10.8V | 6600mAh (71Wh)

    With this new battery and the AC adapter plugged in, I have the green power led and lighted orange recharge. But even after 8 hours and the computer off of the battery did not charge.
    If I try to turn on the computer with this new battery in and the AC adapter is plugged in it starts to run, but after awhile it stops automatically, no question weather I start or enter the BIOS.

    BIOS is Phoenix v1.50 and reset the default settings.
    Also, downloaded the last OS independent 1.70 - WIN (bios - 20090121162419.zip), but is there a way to update without Windows?

    I tried to just unplugged and press the power button several times (last test, I continued pressing more than 2 minutes for what counts)

    I have clean the contacts with alcohol.

    Would it be because of a fuse or capacitor I could replace myself or something?

    Any help would be grateful.

    Kind regards
    Charly

    Hello

    I'm not quite sure what happened to the laptop, but first of all you need to know that laptop m should feed and must run properly if the AC adapter is plugged.
    The isn t battery required to power the unit if the power adapter provides power for the laptop.

    So if ONLY the battery would be affected, the unit must always turn sector.

    This is why I think that its a serious hardware issue for example motherboard problem.

  • Satellite L500D battery does not charge

    My L500D is less 12 months... sound closer to 8 months and the battery will not charge...
    I tried the troubleshooting tips him are delivered with the user manual but light only stays on for about 5 seconds and it constantly says 0%.

    Right now I am an extremely frustrated owner of Toshiba and will be offended if I need to replace the battery after 8 months of normal personal use.

    All the tips, advice and suggestions are more then appreciated!

    Hello

    Battery problems are nothing unusual, that sooner or later each battery will die it s only a matter of time but of course he s strange that the battery can not be charged after 8 months of use

    However, the battery and the laptop are covered under warranty for 12 months.
    You should get in touch with a local ASP in order to solve this problem
    If the warranty is valid, everything must be done free of charge...
    .
    Good luck

  • Satellite U400-128 does not start after hibernation

    Hello

    I currently have problems with my Toshiba laptop. I use it for internet, games, multimedia, programming... Yesterday, when I went to bed, I close the lid that does the same thing as usual--went to hibernation. But today when I tried to start the following things Notepad occur:

    1. If battery is in and laptop is plugged into AC - Laptop starts but after 1-2 seconds it stops again
    2. If the battery is out and the laptop is plugged into AC - same thing
    3. If battery is in and laptop don't is NOT plugged AC - computer laptop starts but nothing is displayed on the screen (it's not far, it looks like even a wink or something). Strange thing is that I can't turn off the laptop and then pressing the power button / stop. The only way is to take out the battery.

    The lights seem to work - well they are the right things.

    THX in advance for any guy advice;).

    Hello!

    It's strange and looks like a hardware malfunction.

    In your case, I'll try to remove the battery and the AC adapter. Wait up to an hour and then put in the battery again und plug in the AC adapter. Try it and maybe it works.

    In the worst cases, you must go to a local ASP and ask a technician for help laptop.

    Good bye

  • Satellite A100: Battery does not charge

    I have a problem with the battery of high capacity on the Satellite A100-720. Accidentally I forgot the action of critical battery set to 'No action', so the battery got virtually completely discharged and now the laptop refuses to charge the battery. The orange light comes on, but the NHC program reports no load current and just on 0%.
    It is also strange that if I stop the laptop and unplug the power cable and then reinsert, it takes a second or two for the connector blue AC light upward and another a few seconds for the battery charging light illuminates... that's not happened before.

    Is there a way to fix this?

    Hello

    While the laptop is turned on and connected to the adapter try to remove the battery and put it back up shortly after. Look at what happens and we report.

    By the way: what is the number of the part of this battery high capacity you use with your Satellite A100?

  • Satellite L750 - battery does not last 1 hour and does not completely load

    I have a L750 and battery not work duration 1 hour and will not be completely free

    Is it normal that it's not even 12 months old

    It is not easy to answer your question. I would say that this is not normal, but unfortunately it happens. I'm afraid that you can't change anything except to change the power settings and try to reduce the power consumption of m.

    As Akuma already written maybe it's both for the replacement of the battery.

  • Satellite U400: webcam does not work with MSN - it is used by another prog

    My chicony webcam will not work on windows live messenger I want to use it for video chat.

    An error message appears saying 'we couldn't start your camera. Please check that your camera is not currently being used by another program, and then try again. "The camera is not currently in use, as far as I know I have closed camera assistant software and you have disabled the camera at startup.

    Please help with this problem!

    Also, I tried using a different logitech webcam, but the computer doesn't seem to recognize it even though I installed the software.

    Any advice?

    I U400 and I use the webcam in the Skype!
    Everything works perfectly.

    If you closed the camera assistant software then the webcam would not work without problems.
    Have you tried to start the webcam software, then MSN?
    Select this check box.

    I also disabled the webcam software in the msconfig-> Startup tab
    This prevents the webcam software to start during windows startup

    In the worst cases, you must remove the software from the webcam of the system and after restarting again, you must reinstall the software again
    Generally, this allows in most cases

    PS: Your operating system should be always up to date!

  • My satellite phone battery does not light and the battery won't charge (rest on 2%)

    Basically, my laptop is 3 months old and I don't know why it's acting weird. First of all, when I bought the laptop in June 06... the first week the laptop has no power in battery mode. So I stopped using the battery mode and still had to use my power adapter to power my laptop.

    Now 4 weeks later, I removed the battery to the rear and put again. Guess what the battery started working. Now 2 months later the same problem occurs, only that this time after removing the battery to it still turn on and the battery says 2% and also fails to load.
    So I m stuck with my son again... can anyone help?

    Hello

    In my opinion the best solution is to confront your local dealer with this problem. If I were you I wouldn't waste time. Unit is fairly new, warranty still valid and unit should operate.

    Perhaps is there some problem with electronic supply power.

  • Re: Satellite C660 - 1 M 0 - battery does not work long

    I have a new Satellite C660 - 1 M 0, and after using it for a week, the battery does not as long as compared to the first time that I used it.

    I heard that a charge of initial battery life of 8 hours is required before the 1st use. Is this true?

    Hi richardvdoran,

    The battery time depends on usage and what you do. For example if you run a large number of programs and work with a high CPU utilization low autonomy and requires AC adapter / CC soon. Also surf the Internet needs battery power.

    You can improve the battery life if you use the eco mode power plan. This will reduce the brightness and other things to improve the battery life.

    First battery charge time may be 8 hours but that's different and according to other things.
