• M30-154: battery works only 10 min

  Please help me: I bought my satellite m30 154 21 months ago and recently the battery seems to be crazy: capacity has really reduced, because (from 0 to 100%) charge time is 30 min long, and when he finishes, I put off the AC adapter then the battery goes from 100% to 0% in 10 minutes! What is the problem? is this normal in less than 2 years he's already dead? I already tried to unload and reload several times completely, but the result is the same... do you think that formatting and reinstalling something will change? or just the battery died and I need to buy a new one? Thanks marco

  Hi Marco,.

  Battery life is notoriously unpredictable and it is very possible that some of the cells of the battery have deteriated to the point where they will hold is no longer a burden.

  If you have tried to recondition the battery to full charge, discharge and then recharge it is likely that the battery does not and must be replaced.

  The M30 does not seem to be prone to problems of power with the battery adapter and it works not properly (see other posts in this forum), but I don't think it's your problem. Your software of power probably isn't at issue here.

  Kind regards

• How can I use my Satellite A100-233 with adapter only?

  The user guide says that it is not a good idea. And once a month I have to unplug the AC adapter and only work from battery. I use my laptop in one place, so it is easy to use only AC adapter.

  Hi Denis,.

  There is no problem; em with you just by using the a/c adapter if you wish. The reasoning behind the recommendation in the manual is to maintain the battery in optimal condition. To do this he must sometimes fully discharge and then charge again.

  If you do not want to use your laptop on battery alone, then just leave the power adapter attached. This can result in a shorter battery life, but should not be a problem for you since you're using your laptop on AC power.

  Kind regards

• On battery power my Satellite A100-233 runs only 1 hour

  Hello

  I would like to know if it is normal that the battery lasts 1 hour. Everything I do is either go on the internet or use word doc or power point presentation. I can't watch a dvd without the use of power due to the battery. I would also like to know what battery normally comes with the Satellite A100-233.

  Hello

  It's not easy to say how long the laptop will only work with the battery power.
  Battery working time depends on the use of the laptop!
  In your case I guess the laptop should run about 1h30min 1h15min

  You Satellite A100-233 belongs to the series of PSAA8E. Am I wrong?
  Well, this series was delivered with a 4000mAh battery. As far as I know the price part number indicated PA3399U-2BRS PA3399U-2BAS

  Anyway the 4000mAh batteries are standard and are not very powerful.
  If you want to run the notebook much more on battery I advise to use the batteries as:

  Battery pack high capacity PA3400U-1BRS (Li-ion, 12 cells, 8600mAh)
  PA3478U-1BRS extended capacity battery (Li-ion, 6000mAh, 9-cell)

• Satellite A100-233 - what memory I need?

  Hello

  I have the Satellite A100-233 and I want to increase its memory. The question is, if my card MOM, can I put DDR2 memory with 667 MHZ speed or I use only 533 MHZ?

  Thank you

  Hello

  It according to your chipset you ;)

  If you want to just buy a second memory module, I'd be the same module as the first. So that you know its module is compatible with the laptop and normally two identical modules must be used in the book to avoid problems of incompatibility.

  But as far as I know A100-233 can handle up to 667 MHz modules. If the first module runs with 533 MHz, the second module will work also on 533 MHz. This means that the modules are compatible downgrade.

• Satellite A100-233 - freezes during the update of the BIOS

  Hello

  I think that in this case you must go to an authorized service provider. If the laptop freeze during the BIOS update module ROM needs to be reflashed.

  On the Toshiba site, you can search nearest ASP and download all the drivers. Check this box:

• Satellite A100-233: can I use the WiFi for the Peer to Peer network?

  Hello

  I don't know if I understand your question, but you want to connect two laptops via the WLan. Am I wrong?
  Well, this type of network connection is called Ad hoc.

  Choose Start-> settings-> network connections, and then click the local network connection you want to share. On the left side of the screen under the management of the network, click on "change settings of this connection. Under the Advanced tab, under Internet connection sharing, check the box "allow other users of the network to connect through this computer's Internet connection".
  There is also a check box to allow other users to enable or disable the Internet connection, if you are so inclined. If your network doesn? t need to access to the Internet, you can skip this paragraph.

  The host system must also be configured with an Ad Hoc network connection and a Set Service identify (SSID). Right-click on the wireless icon in the system tray and choose "view wireless networks". Do NOT yet connect to any wireless network that could appear in the box. Click the Advanced button. This will bring up the Properties window of wireless with the wireless networks tab at the front. Click the Advanced Options button at the bottom right of this tab, select the option "networks from computer to computer (ad hoc) only". Make sure that the box "Auto connects to the non preferred networks" is NOT checked. Click the close (once) button to return to the wireless network tab.
  Under preferred network, click Add. You now need a SSID for this machine, which is actually the name it will use to announce themselves to the other members of the ad hoc wireless network.

• Need driver network for Satellite A100-233

  I just did a reinstall of Windows XP Home on a Satellite A100-233 bought in the Middle East. I have downloaded Intel chipset, then looked up some network driver, the only one that I found that I downloaded (zip file) when I opened there was no facility or the executable file.

  Can you please post the URL for the network driver and all the other necessary drivers for a new installation?

  Thank you

  PS: by the way search gave 0 results whenever I used it.

  You n t need any exe file to install the LAN driver.

  The LAN driver can be installed via the Device Manager. Here, you just mark the unknown device located in the network controllers and point the installer to the place where the LAN driver files have been decompressed.

  All that s.

• Using the Satellite A100 without battery

  My laptop Satellite A100, the battery is almost dead. Is it bad to use the computer like this?

  > When using on current alternative computer runs slowly when the battery does not work.
  Performance laptop has nothing to do with food but with parameters.
  I don't know what operating system you use, but if you have Vista, you can switch between the different profiles and each of them has different performance level.
  If you use it for normal work set for the balanced profile. If you require full performance of high power Performance set plan.

  You can remove the battery and continue using your laptop as usual.
