• Satellite 5200-801-failure of graphics HW

  Hello

  Is it possible to change the graphics card to a Satellite 5200 801? Or it is part of the motherboard, means, I need to change the mothermoard? If it is possible, what is probable invest?

  Question:
  My graphics card appears to show a HW failure. After that turn on the screen of the laptop shows the thin vertical lines and it starts flashing after a few seconds.

  During the startup of Windows XP, the machine meets a bluescreen detection of problems with the nvidia device.

  When I start the laptop mode safe, the notebook starts up and I'm able to evidence with the Manager of Windows hardware, Windows detects a HW problem with the graphics card.

  So I'm sure it's the graphics card or the video RAM. Even playing with the video modes do not change or correct the problem. Also the video mode with the highest resolution is no longer available.

  The LCD display is new. I changed it with a new 3 months ago.

  Thanks in advance,

  Hello

  The Satellite 5200 801 was delivered with an nVidia GeForce4 460Go 64 MB graphics card.
  But as far as I know it of not possible to change the graphics chip. This small chip is attached to the motherboard.
  I guess that it of necessary to replace the motherboard.

• Memory and disk HARD upgrade question - Satellite 5200 801

  Hi all

  I really need your help to upgrade my toshiba Satellite 5200 801 (model: PS520E-31P1D-EN), basically it's the version specification factory (technical instructions on the link below)
  http://www.cwrose.de/Toshiba/S5200.html

  What I want is to get faster internal memory, you can buy for this model (currently I have two default 256 mb DDR 266 MHz CL2.5 memory sticks). Will probably do a gig of memory (I could have more, but it depends on the price).
  As well, I want to spend the HD to 160 gig (about), as well as get a faster hard drive then the current 60gig 4200 RPM Hitachi HD (as soon as possible for the specifications of my laptop).

  Anyone know what would be the best option?

  Someone said that it would cost all under 100 (that would be cool), but I don't know anything about the compatibility of different companies etc.
  Can anyone recommend what equipment... .and where * I hope that ebay or studs :)
  I need to go to get this sorted out

  PS:
  FYI, I mostly use the laptop for graphic design, video, and the interwebz.

  Thanks for any help you can give!

  Hello

  You can upgrade the Satellite 5200 801 memory and HARD drive.
  S for laptop computer memory can be improved up to 1 GB of RAM. So you can use 2 x 512 MB PC2100 DDR - RAM modules.

  Check this link 5200-801 Satellite:
  http://www.orcalogic.co.UK/ASP/ProdType.asp?ProdType=6116&ft=m&St=3

  In my opinion, you can use the modules of memory from different manufacturers, but the module must support these specifications: 200-Pin PC2100 (266 MHz) DDR SODIMM
  I suppose you could also use a 400 Mhz because the laptop supports a 400 Mhz FSB too.

  I think that an upgrade of the IDE 160 GB HARD disk is not possible. To my knowledge, the BIOS can support such massive size of the HARD drive. But this is only my personal opinion. If I was you I would try a smaller HDD like 100 GB or 120 GB.

  Are there outside Yamaha equalizer and Volume any repareable reason for the failure of the Woofer bass in the sound of the Satellite 5200 801?

  Hi Frankie,

  I understand that your problem is that your subwoofer is not working properly. You reinstall the driver and additional of your CD of tools & utilities software or website of toshiba? (http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com)

  Also, you can check in Control Panel sound and Audio devices. It should be the Yamaha AC - XG WDm Audio setting as default device in AUDIO.

  Or another suggestion, check under System Device Manager in the control panel and check if the devices work properly!

  It could also possible that your subwoofer is inadmissible and must be changed by a partner of Serivce!

  I'll hope this helps!

• How to restart the Satellite 5200 801 without using the recovery disk?

  Hello
  I haven't used my Satellite 5200 801 for awhile and now it does not start. That's what I have on the black screen:

  Intel® Boot Agent Version 4.1.04
  Copyright © 1997-2002, Intel Corporation
  PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of
  PXE - M0F: Exit Intel Boot Agent.
  Insert system disk in drive.
  Press a key when tready.

  I have the product recovery disc, but which will erase all existing data and rebuild. Is there a way to boot my PC without the use of the recovery disk?

  Thanks for any help.

  > PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of

  This message means that laptop tried to boot from LAN.
  Given that this was not possible the PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable appeared

  I guess that the HARD drive is defect and therefore, the laptop won't boot from the internal HARD drive.
  In this case also your internal data on the HARD disk are lost.

  But to be100% sure that you can remove the laptop HARD drive, could use a drive enclosure HARD 2.5 to connect the HARD drive to another computer just to check if you would be able to access data on the HARD drive

• Dysfunction of graphics on a Satellite 5200 801

  I have a Toshiba Satellite 5200-801 (nr.PS 520-31P1D-PT) with the following problem:

  After pressing the button operation, the screen shows vertical stripes, alternately, with large rectangle B & W points. After Windows XP spit and the only thing I can do, it's a hard reboot again and again once.

  It happened all of a sudden without any specific reason a few days ago, and now I never finished a full boot sequence Windows normal.

  I read another discussion here in this forum, and I guess that the problem should be on the graphical circuit inside the motherboard. Do you think this could be a malfunction of this series from Toshiba?
  I try to call today for the phone number of European support, but after 15 minutes of waiting I hang it up.

  Here in Lisbon (Portugal), I have no idea how to solve this problem.

  Could all those who have already opened this model, you tell me if the graphic chipsset could be changed? (This is perhaps a silly question :-(sorry on this subject)

  Thank you very much for other ideas solving this dysfunction,
  Luis Pitta (from Lisbon)

  Hi Luis

  He damage of s to hear that I agree with you it could be a graphics card but I put t think it is of a common malfunction of this series laptop.
  You know, these defects occur just my laptop another production was fixed 2 times due to the fault of the sound card
  I think laptops are more affected by various malfunctions due to the temperature inside the laptop. The devices together produce a lot of heat and after several times the chip can damage all simply.

  It seems that you don't have much experience with this replacement and so I don't t recommend trying to fix it yourself. Firstly the replacement of the devices isn't easy as on the desktop PC and second you don t have the right parts.
  The technicians of the partner of service authorized in your country have more experience as a common user like me and you.
  Guys should check the laptop

  I have a satellite 5200 - 801.The thing is that my graphics card is broken and his one with my mobo so I need to change my motherboard.

  I got a new mobo for the American market.
  do you know if it will be compatible with my European model?

  Thx a lot!

  Hello

  The 5205 Satellite which is designed for the U.S. market looks a lot like the 5200 satellite which is designed for countries in the EMEA region.

  I m not 100% sure but I believe the motherboard must be compatible

• Re: Satellite A105 - seeing of power started flashing orange/battery not charging

  I have a satellite A105-4054, which gave excellent service. Yesterday, the orange started power light flashing and ceased to charge the battery. I had a second freshly charged battery, that I used instead and the power led still flashes in orange.

  I checked the Original Toshiba charger that came with the device, with a voltmeter and it shows 15 volts, which is correct. The laptop starts normally with a freshly charged battery, but it does not load when it is plugged and the power light flashes orange constantly. If I remove the battery and leave the laptop plugged in, continually amber power light flashes and nothing happens (no voltage). I'd be happy to run just the laptop on AC, but it is not possible now

  The toshiba power utility system icon, when the laptop is started on the new battery, flushing back and forth between the load and the battery, and the battery does not seem to charge. Previously, the power utility would show current alternative continuously when the unit is connected and the power light stay blue.

  I love the laptop, because he rendered services superb and would like to keep. All reasonable solutions, please?

  Thanks guys (and girls)!

  On this virtual path, no one can say with certainty what the problem, but after reading your detailed ad, I think there is problem with electronic power supply on the motherboard. Technicians with tools only special diagnostic can say with certainty what the problem is here.

  In my opinion there is not a lot you can do about it, and in this case, entire motherboard must be exchanged. If you want to contact the nearest authorized maintainer, explain the situation and I hope that they can tell you more.

• Satellite Pro A120 - DC-in is flashing orange, why?

  My Satellite Pro A120 DC - in flashes orange once I plugged my universal charger.
  I read my user manual. It is said it can be caused by an abnormal voltage or a power problem but I don't know if my charger is the one bringing or there is a power problem.

  The voltage is correct and I tried to plug in charger everywhere but still DC-flashes orange. In fact, I can t use my laptop when the charger is unplugged because its battery lows down so I can t use my laptop at all when he can load t.

  It makes me think that maybe the battery is the problem. In any case, what is the problem at the start of DC-in flashing orange.

  Please help me what to do. Thank you

  Hi jane18.

  > once I plugged my universal charger.
  And what happens if you use the AC/DC to original Toshiba adapter that came with your laptop?

• Satellite 2805-S201: AC power light flashes orange 8 times

  Hello

  I worked on a Satellite 2805-S201 and everything was fine until I put a PCMCIA wireless with 3, 3V power.
  After that, the AC power light flashes orange 8 times and recycle.

  It comes with power supply, battery, AC and no battery installed, etc. If I pull out the power plug and the battery and then put both when AC is green and the battery may charge. As soon as I push the power button, I hear a light click on the right side of the device and then it goes into the amber cycling power.

  Bulletins of support mentioned that the card could get damaged, but did not mention the unit itself.
  No, the PCMCIA card is not always connected

  Any thoughts?

  Hello

  The flashing provides a micro code which refers to the hardware failure.
  But please don't ask me what might mean this code because in my opinion, only an authorized service provider can be read and can check in his manuals and documentations.
  But it is of course, in most cases, it s a hardware problem of motherboard! ;(

  Perhaps the external PCMCIA card was not totally compatible and damages of something on the map but it's only my personal suggestion to ensure what s bad hardware fault diagnosis would be necessary.

• Satellite Pro 6100 - problem starting (light flashing Orange)

  On my laptop Satellite Pro 6100, seeing DC IN (first on the left) flashes orange and the laptop does nothing else (no display or sound). The light flashes for 8 times, has a long pause and then starts all over again.

  I tried a different adapter with no joy. It does the same thing if you use only the battery and if you run from the adapter without the battery.

  The only time wherever it shows a different light is when you take the battery out, put back in and hold the power button. Led Slim Select Bay (second right) briefly turns green, but it turns off and the led DC IN resumption of the orange blink.

  It seems likely that it is an internal hardware problem (power supply, motherboard, etc.). Does anyone have any ideas? And as anyone knows anywhere which lists all the different orange light codes for Toshiba laptops?

  Hi André,.

  You are right in thinking that there is a hardware failure (most likely your motherboard). Flashing codes are used by service technicians to indicate the nature of the fault and I have yet to find anywhere who publishes the real meaning of these codes.

  I think it looks like a trip to the nearest Service Agent. :-(

• Satellite 5200-801 DVD-R/RW does not work!

  Hello
  I bought there are these laptop at least 2 1/2. I tried several times to get the DVD burning feature to work and was not wrong. Finally, a friend gave me a copy of Nero, and just like the other packages, I have used before, the system does not recognize the drive Virgin dvd - r.

  What could I do?
  Help, please!

  Thank you!
  Fidel

  Hi Fidel,

  I think that the 5200-801 use an optical drive Toshiba SD-R6012, who should be able to burn DVD-R and DVD - RW. It is possible that your player is not happy with the brand of blank media you're trying to use so I suggest you try a few different brands to see if it improves the situation.

  It is also possible that the device has a defect which is preventing them from actually identify the blank DVD when you insert it. Have you checked that the device will play pre-recorded media properly?

  Kind regards
