Satellite A100-599 exactly stop after 60 sec

Hello

I have an unusual problem with my laptop
It turns off after exactly one minute/60 sec.

I tried with another ram, with or without battery, without hard drive in the Bios Setup.
No matter what I do it turns off after 60 seconds exactly, and I don't know what to do!

So it's not to randomly turn off the coast, but exactly 60 seconds!
What could be the problem?

I can't find Bios anywhere on the internet and I m not exactly sure if I could flash even in time of 60 seconds...
...

Hello

Strange in my experience the laptop would be off automatically due to the higher temperature.
Have you noticed a temperature higher during this 60 sec?

It is possible that your cooling fan is not working properly, which lead to the overheating of the CPU and automatic shut downs
But its weird that this happens always exactly after 60 sec

In any case, try to clean the cooling fans using a jet of compressed air. Dust can affect cooling performance, so his challenge worth a try.

The thermal grease could be renewed too, but this procedure is more complex and should be done by someone who knows how to disassemble the laptop and replace the thermal grease.

But this is just theory I don't very well if the problem is related to a higher m temperature

With regard to the update of the BIOS:
This is not possible given that the laptop turns off and it could interrupt the BIOS update. In this case, this could damage the MEDIA module and the motherboard.

    Hey,.

    > but without success.
    Does that mean exactly? You get an error during installation or what exactly is going on?

    > Only safe mode is available after the installation of this driver
    Why only safe mode is available? What happens if you start Windows in normal mode?

    And before you start a lengthy discussion: what laptop do you have?

    You may notice no problem if you install Windows recovery disk Toshiba?

    5 seconds more late to appear the screen computer has restarted.

    Please help me! What is this problem? How can I solve?

    Thank you...

    Hello

    have you checked if your RAM is good? I suggest do a RAM with 'memtest86' test or 'prime95' so you can be sure that your RAM or CPU is either defective or not.
    And it would be useful to do a bios update to the latest version, because it is sometimes useful.

    One last question: how many times did you get this error and how long your machine was fine until this error appeared the first time.

  • Satellite A100-599 noise in Vista seems to be distorted and cracked

    The sound on my Satellite A100-599 seems to be very distorted and cracked.
    The problem seems to be new, it happens on the screen of welcome in windows vista and in some applications and games

    Also, it does not appear if you connect the headphones?
    If you can hear also cracked and distorted sound through the headphones, the problem may be related to software or the sound card problem.

    In the first step, I recommend you remove the old driver and install a new one from the Toshiba page.
    If this does not help, try to clean the registry and system files, use applications freeware called CCleaner.
    This program is great and can repair your system and registry

    If you see any improvements after these two procedures, I recommend reinstall the OS from the Toshiba restore CD.
    But please don t forget to create a backup of your data and private files because a new installation will format the HARD drive.

    Hello

    I don't really know what you're talking about. Your laptop model is listed for a long time and I do not understand where you found this satellite 3000.

    Go to http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp and choose your model of laptop with good description. All that s!

    Sorry, but I don't think there is a problem with professionalism, but only with you and the way you're looking for info on the web page.

  • Satellite A100-599 - question about updating the display driver

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A100-599 with a NVIDIA 7600go graphics card and I like most of you Bioshock game crashes because of some problems with the graphic card drivers, no pb... Meanwhile, NVIDIA has released some new patches for the Forceware and after I double checked the database of the Toshiba driver support I've seen a new version in the list of display driver for WinXp.

    One of them seems to be 13/09/2007. I have downloaded the drivers, installed them and then I checked the details of the driver in the Device Manager list and to my surprise the details say that the drivers are since 2006. I reinstalled the drivers and the same thing appeared. I checked the XML that was in archive of drivers and surprise... the drivers really are the 'old' of 2006. So my question is this: you have the display drivers for my model that work for Bioshock :D

    Best regards, Marian

    I Don t know if we. I think it would be took a long while to ask every single user: Hey, you have a few drivers for blackmodjo? Ah, come on, please. Some of them... ;)

    No, I have a better idea. It s like to cook a meal. Ingredients: DriverCleaner Pro and the www.laptopvideo2go.com site and... your your your TAAA patience

    To get a good 'bio' meal shocked just follow this recipe:

    Reach
    http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/
    read before doing anything (YES, even before you continue to BREATHE) the FAQ section on this site (RECOMMENDEDRECOMMENDEDRECOMMENDED)
    and then download the drivers. Do it, Yes...

    Then download drivercleaner by searching on www.google.com and THEN read their manual before doing anything else (Ok, you can continue to breathe..)
    After reading the manual you will be something like:

    1. program start, do something, restart the machine
    2. start in safe mode, from this program, deleting... yadayadayada
    3. install the new driver
    3. reading of Bioshock
    4...
    5. No... 6 thank. me and give me your first born... ;)

    So by cutting about 40% of my humorous things and following the constructive technical instructions from me, you will be able to play bioshock.

    Welcomes :)

  • Satellite A100 - 599 PSAARE-> need XP drivers

    I just bought a Satellite A100-599. It comes with Vista, but I wanted to go back to XP. I have not found any place where Toshiba offers drivers for the PSAARE part number, still less for A100-599.

    Someone had the same problem?
    I could find so far the closest correspondence is on the Canadian website for Toshiba where there is some PSAARC drivers.

    I hope that C stands for Canada and E for Europe, otherwise
    I'm screwed.

    Hello Alex

    There is no special links. Only the place where you can find the drivers is the Toshiba official download page. If you find no drivers, you must wait. Now Vista drivers are priority and support for Windows XP edition family for new units certainly isn't the first job that Toshiba should do. Please do not see this as a problem. You have a newer laptop with the latest OS available on the market.

    I just recommend you read other topics on this forum about Windows XP Home edition on the new laptops Vista preinstalled. You will find lots of useful information.

    You n t need to install anything from the Intel page.

  • Satellite A100-599: need drivers Vista 64 bit

    Hello

    I m from Kosovo.
    I installed Vista 64 bit on Satellite A100-599 but I can t find drivers for Vista 64 bit
    Can someone help me...?

    thnx

    Hello

    Unfortunately the 64 bit Vista drivers are not available for this series of Satellite A100 PSAAR.

    Last chance would be installing some drivers unique from other series of laptops that are equipped with the same features.

    Try the driver Vista 64-bit of the other series and maybe some unique drivers will run.

    Good luck

    Satellite A100-599 belongs to the PSAARE series. Am I wrong?
    You can check the number at the bottom of the unit.

    You can find all the drivers available on the page of the European driver Toshiba Toshiba.

    According to some of the suggestions from this forum, you should only use the graphics driver Toshiba because these drivers support the overheating protection which is necessary to protect the GPU from damage.
    The gift of t 3rd party drivers support this protection and you will then use the GPU could overheat.

  • Satellite A100-599 card to nVidia 8 series extensible GFX?

    Hello

    Is the last Satellite A100 - 599 extensible GFX NVIDIA 8 series card?
    If not, what could be done for my laptop, if I need to upgrade?

    Thanks :)

    Hello

    No, this is not possible.
    Laptop technology is different from the technology of desktop PC and therefore updates such as CPU or GPU are not easy or not possible.

    Especially the GPU (graphics chip) is soldered on the motherboard and the branch as a whole must be replaced if the chip of damages for example.

    If you n t want to miss the graphic performance, either you are going to buy a new laptop (desktop PC) with a stronger graphics card or you will switch to an external graphics card.
    But in my opinion this is no logic to use an external graphics card.
