Satellite 1800-100: battery light is still orange flashing, not charging

Hello
I have a S1800 Satellite laptop series and I used it for a long time. But yesterday, I'm very disappointed by a strange event. Now I have no solution, please help...

Situation: While my laptop was working in battery mode (no air-con plugged), I was copying some files from my HARD drive, then suddenly portable inside out, I thought it happened because the accusation was over and I plugged adapter to load as usual, but NO charge!

Battery light FLASHES with the orange color and not charging, when the AC adapter is connected, the laptop works normal without error but if I unplug the AC adapter, the laptop turns off immediately. This shows that even though it is plugged in for 6 hours, but without costs as I said there is no advance fees.

I got this new situation and my local Toshiba service rejected my request due to the old mode of my laptop.

My last chance is here

Help, please.

Best regards...

Hello

Well, if the battery LED blinks orange indicating a low battery charge.
If the led blinks during the adapter is plugged, so in my opinion, the battery cannot be charged. Maybe the battery is dead. This is possible because you can recharge the battery, about 500 times. After this period, the battery will lose performance and dead.

  • Satellite 1800-100 - cannot start when the cable is plugged

    Hello!
    My Satellite 1800-100 now only lights up when the power cable is plugged.

    It allows me to recharge the battery well when the laptop is turned off. And if I can use it only on the power of the battery which is not used for a long time - about half an hour just as much.
    What do you think is the problem? The battery or the AC/transformer cable?

    Thank you for your help.
    Kind regards

    I m not sure but I think it is a problem of the motherboard.
    I had the same problem 4 years or more (I dunno m) on another laptop. The repairman replaced the motherboard and the problem was solved.

    So you can look on eBay for a second hand motherboard for Exchange it.

    Hello

    There is nothing wrong with the hardware of the laptop but only with the BIOS!
    I read a few threads on a similar BIOS problem and it seems the BIOS has to be flashed again on the special way!

    It should be a message sayingPlace a maintenance disk in the drive and press on enter.
    Am I wrong?
    Well, this disc of maintenance is needed to repair the BIOS and only the authorized service provider could do that!

  • Question on change of processor satellite 1800-100

    Al first of all, Hello to everyone. I have a Satellite 1800-100 with a celeron 800 mhz CPU.
    I have from another DESKTOP PC, a PENTIUM III 700, and I want to improve my toshiba with this processor. I probed this celeron 800 mhz CPU during this work computer desk 1 year ago and it's because the processor of this Satellite is not a special mobile chip, with less power, etc.. It s a normal desktop CPU.

    But I want to install the 700 mhz PENTIUM III CPU inside the laptop, but...
    What I have to change the jumpers in the 1800-100 motherboard to install the 700 mhz pentium III or this motherboard is able to auto-detection of the processor type and automatically configure itself.

    Hello

    Usually CPU replacements on laptops are not compatible and it s still a very risky game. It can happens that laptop does not work properly or will not
    In any case, I discovered that the Satellite 1800 series supports a Pentium III or Celeron processor.

    This processor can be used:
    -Basic operation of processor Pentium III with a clock internally 750/800/850 MHz, 100 MHz bus, and 1.70V
    -Internal basic operation of processor Pentium III with a clock of 1000 MHz, 100 MHz bus and 1.75 v

    -Basic operation Celeron processor with a clock internal 800 MHz, 100 MHz bus and 1.70V
    -Basic operation Celeron processor with a clock internal to 700/733/766 MHz, 66 MHz bus and 1.70V

    > What I have to change the jumpers in the 1800-100 motherboard to install the 700 mhz pentium III or this motherboard's power auto detect CPU type and auto configure itself.
    To my knowledge, it should start automatically. You do not need to change anything.

    But note; I m not 100% sure that you'll be able to remove the CPU because the CPU can be welded on the map.

    I can't believe that. I n t have this unit but I have download several drivers, unzipped, and he seems to be good.

    In any case, try to use the drivers provided by the other 1800 satellite.

  • Re: New SD-R6472 satellite 1800-100 - player target not found

    Hi fans of Toshiba

    I have a Satellite 1800-100 and bought a Player DVD SD-R6472
    I downloaded the SD-R6472 csel changer program but cannot execute it.
    It says "target drive is not found.

    I have already download the latest version of the bios

    Anyone know what to do next?
    It would be much appreciated if someone could help me on this

    Best regards
    Chris

    There is a simple explanation; the firmware that you use is simply not compatible with your SD-R6472 drive.

    I don t think you will succeed to Flash the drives settings.
    Is that these tools is not available on the Toshiba page and I doubt that any software 3rd party would be able to do this

    Before you buy a CD/DVD drive, you must make sure that such ODD would be compatible with your laptop.
    In my manual, I have found information on compatible players.
    Maybe your user manual would provide info on the STRANGE compatible too
    If this isn't the case, then you should contact the Toshiba ASP for information on compatible CD/DVD players.

    Have a nice Weekend

  • Satellite 1800-100 microprocessor upgrade

    Hi!, thanks for this forum.

    Okay, I bougth a satellite 1800-100 four years ago in a shop, here in Spain. I improve my memory with a module of kingston pc100 144 pin with 256 MB. I mounted this module because this motherboard FSB is 100 Mhz.
    Now, my laptop has 384 MB of RAM.

    But, I would like to increase the speed of my 1800-100

    I opened the laptop to investigate the resources inside. I mounted and dismounted several times, CPU Intel celeron 800 Mhz processor. But I Don t know if it is possible to have more information on the characteristics of motherboard'internals. I would like to know which is the microphone the quicker one can get in my book. ¿Celeron 900, 1000, 1100 or more? Where can I get a pentium III 800, 900, 1000, 1100 or more? I didn t see indications or jumpers in the motherboard on the tensions, or speeds and I Don t now if this motherboard determines automatically the voltage and speed when the microphone is mounted. I have 1 or 2 microphones of fastest in the House, and I want to ride in my laptop
    without the risk of burning the microphones or the motherboard. Is posible to find information on our satellite motherboard. I Don t know who is the superior of technology of microphones that are supported in my 100-1800.
    It is the only way to increase the speed, because the chipset is not really good, and cheap nor quick. I think that when someone buys a computer, desktop computer or a laptop, it can receive all the documentation about the inner workings of a computer, so isn´t?

    I m sorry for my questions severals, but I m very intetesred with this problem...

    Thank you all...

    Hi, Rob

    Information about the technical details on his books will be no manufacturer of space available.

    A laptop is high designed compact Machine, which is not

    OK, hard drive and memory are no problem as long as you can catch this part by opening a ceiling with screws.

    So finally, you won't find the technical details of the motherboard is this Forum here, the only chance I have is to talk directly to a technician of Toshiba.

  • Satellite M100 - no battery light

    Hello

    My Satellite M100 has a problem with the power. He has started about a month ago, when my computer turns off suddenly, and the power light is the only one left on, no battery light. The problem seemed to disappear, but recently the gaming laptop upward again. It stops randomly, or the power led will Flash quickly. And the battery light will turn on for half a second and turn off.

    Any ideas, thanks in advance
    Baldan11

    > It shuts down randomly, or the power led will Flash quickly. And the battery light will turn on for half a second and turn off.
    Very strange but sounds like something wrong with the electronic power supply on the motherboard.
    If the power led starts flashing then that would mean that a material error has been detected on the motherboard

    But just a question;
    Are you able to use the laptop connected only to battery or only adapter?
    Problems of charging the battery?
