Satellite A100-496 power plug problem

Hi, my first post and this is probably a common problem.

I got an A100-496 for about two years and it has been fine. Nothing special, just right.

Although the pin power plug to the back of the machine became loose and therefore constantly moving the battery and possibly perform.

I found any number of sockets of replacement for other models, but this seems rare.
Can someone advise
one) where I could get one at a reasonable price
(b) if there are other models that use exactly this Jack
(c) how it could be difficult to replace or
(d) the question of whether I should just go out and buy a new machine (certainly not a Toshiba)?

I would be very grateful for any advice and thank you in advance.

Hello

I think that the replacement of DC Jack is really complicated because it s placed on the motherboard and you will need to disassemble the whole laptop to gain access to decision-making.
The disassembly procedure is not easy, that you know the right order and how to remove devices
There is therefore a high risk of damage to laptop

Anyway, you want to know what is compatible.
Well, I recommend contacting the ASP in your country for details and the right part, the technicians should be abele to order this part at Toshiba.

See you soon

  • Satellite A100-225 - charging battery problem

    Hi people,

    My Satellite A100-225 can't hold the charge when running. If I use processor heavy applications, the battery will drain in about half an hour and recharge only when the cover is closed (standby mode) or the laptop is turned off.

    When the exhausted battery and the laptop turns off, I have to remove the battery, press the on/off switch, replace the battery, then let it charge for a while before I can use it again.

    The laptop will power any if I remove the battery and the runoff of current alternative.

    I tried a spare battery, but exactly the same thing happens.
    I also updated the Bios with the latest version (6).
    Laptop runs Windows XP Home Edition.
    Laptop is out of warranty.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    See you soon
    Steve

    Looks like a hardware problem. I mean, if your battery runs out when the machine is connected to the pit of the wall adapter (this is what I did not understand), so something in the subsystem of your laptop power goes down.

    Have you ever sent the machine to a partner of service authorized or is the machine still under warranty?

  • Satellite A100-495: strange starting problems & freezes

    Hey guys.

    I recently got my Satellite A100-495 back from repair - it had a power problem (no led was flashing and it does not start of course). They told me that the motherboard has been renewed.

    Now, I have the following two issues:

    (1) it freezes suddenly sometimes in windows after 1-2 hours of operation without problems and I have to hold the power button for a few seconds restart

    (2) I press the power on button, LEDS are underway but the screen remains black, sometimes becomes gray, hard drive makes noise, fans going on but it just does not start, do not show anything. After some tests, I have to start but once again crashes after a couple hours of functioning properly.

    Can someone tell me what is the problem here?

    Bad memory (RAM) can cause this.

    If you can get it to start, test the memory with Memtest on a bootable CD. www.memtest.org

    Otherwise, try the combination of the different memory card. If you have 2 sticks of memory, try with one stick, then try the other stick, try different locations.
    Often the memory pins can oxidize and cause problems. To clean the pins, use a pencil eraser/rubber and rub the pins of module memory.
    Be careful when you handle the memory, you can zap easily memory with static electricity. To make sure that you are connected to the earth when the memory handling.

  • Satellite A100-920 - Audio driver problem - Win XP Pro

    Hi all

    I'm having a problem with audio driver. I can't seem to find one that works anywhere, I looked at several forums and the Toshiba site for drivers without success. I basically hit a wall, so I hope someone can provide a working solution. :)

    Audio device:
    Feature: 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller
    Manufacturer: Intel

    (Information retrieved using a Ubuntu 9.04 Live CD)

    Although a windows system it labels as "Realtek High Definition Audio Controller"? (I'm not an expert with the drivers, so maybe this is a stupid question...) :)

    The computer is a Toshiba Satellite A100-920 (PSAA9E) Windows XP Professional.

    I spent hours trying to solve this problem, so I hope this is the last mile. :) Thanks to anyone with suggestions.

    Best regards

  • Satellite A100-803 - Vista recovery problem

    Hello

    I upgraded the RAM and HDD on a Satellite A100-803 and when I restore Windows Vista from the recovery disk process is going very well, but after restarting windows says that "Windows Setup could not set up Windows on this s material.

    I think that the problem is listed here.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2466753/en-us.

    But the problem is that I can't change the RAID setting in the BIOS, and during the installation of recovery, I'm not able to add the additional drivers needed.
    The new drive is a WD 500 GB driver (WD5000BPVT)

    How can I solve this problem?
    Thanks in advance
    Pau

    Hello

    First I put t think its BIOS problem.
    The laptop doesn't support RAID.

    I think the problem is the size of your new HARD drive. Upgrade of the disk HARD 500 GB and its larger than the original HARD drive equipped in A100.

    The point is that a recovery disk automatically creates the partitions on the HARD disk, but due to the size of the disk HARD the size of the partitions would be different also.
    I think that you won't have the same problems to install Vista or Win 7 using the Microsoft disk

  • Satellite A100 - Flash memory card problem

    My question is if anyone has had this problem.

    Because the laptop to send etc also a number costs as well as the cost of a mechanic.

  • Satellite A100-206 supervisor password problem

    Hello

    We have a Satellite A100-206 at the office.

    A colleague trying to protect the laptop set the user password in the bios.
    I do not exactly know what she does but at startup is asked for a password.

    Then she ask me to remove the password so I typed the password, management of the bios and clear the user password.
    But it is, I also noticed that the supervisor password was already defined but not selectable (gray color).

    In any case, I've saved and restart.
    The problem is that now the OS start without asking for a password, but I can't enter the bios because it asks for a password and is not that of the colleague don't forget to have it fixed.

    Why can't I get more into the bios of th as a user?
    I also find the hwsetup in windows re set the password of the user as shown in the manual, but this software is not present.

    Best regards
    Diego

    Hello

    I put t know which operating system you have, but I think that Akuma is right. If you start HWsetup you can also access the BIOS using this tool and remove or set a supervisor password.

    You can remove the password in HWsetup?

  • Satellite A100 - screen power button stays black!

    Hi all

    I have a Satellite A100 (PSAANA-04E005) than just doesn t power up. The power button lights up, but the screen remains black, and you can hear things from fan.

    I tried to remove the battery and running only one AC, tried the recovery disk and everything I could find on troubleshooting, but it s just not work.
    More disappointing is I JUST realized out of warranty - timing is far from perfect...

    Can someone please help with some info so I can get my system back up and running?
    Not too concerned about what was on the hard drive - just that it works again!

    Any help would be greatly appreciated...

    See you soon,.

    Hello

    I put t know if this will help, but in my case it worked in the past.
    -Remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter
    -wait for about 30-40 min, also try a longer period
    -then reconnect the two parts to the laptop and try to turn on the machine

    If it helps then you are already lucky, if not well: (.) You will need to contact the ASP guy in your country for assistance

    My laptop Toshiba A100-496 continually tries to start and that Windows logo appears it goes back to the options to select for example safe mode, I tried all the optuions but in vain.

    However, I see a flash of a blue screen with writing and pressing a button, not sure what one I could read the blue screen that gave me a piece of management of memory information.
    Windows XP pre loaded in my laptop so I don't have a disc.

    I don't want to lose the docs and the photo I stored, can I do to fix this?

    Help, please.

    Hmm.
    I see just one solution;
    You must use a Linux Live CD or WinPE bootable disk to boot from that disk and gain access to the HARD drive.
    Then you can back up the data on external HARD disk or USB key, and then you would be able to restore the operating system using a Windows XP Vista or Win 7 disc

    Google for WinPE and how to create a CD bootable image that you can download.
