Satellite A100-847 battery led blinks 11 times, absence of motherboard?

Hello

14 months (only 12 months warranty), I have a Satellite A100-847 was a laptop perfect, but 2 weeks ago the ac-adaptar falls down and since then that if I push the power button the battery orange led blinks 11 times with the same length, but nothing happens.

ASP did not now what this flashing means but think I have a motherboard problem.
Now I found on ebay a Satellite A100-153 and my question is, is this the same motherboard, because it's also 945 PM.
(Sorry for my bad English)

[Satellite A100-847: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?PRODUCT_ID=120570&DISC _ MODEL = 1 & service = EU]

[Satellite A100-153 | http://de.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/jsp/productPage.do?service=DE&PRODUCT_ID=112714&PRODUC T_ID = 112714 & toshibaShop = false]

THX.

It seems that two laptop computers support the same motherboard as the Satellite A100-847 and Satellite A100-153 belong to the same series of PSAA9E.
This series uses the same drivers and the same BIOS so I think that the mobo must also be the same.

PS; I think that it is a motherboard problem too. Such a code is displayed only if a hardware failure has been detected on the motherboard.

Best regards

  • Satellite A105-S2031 battery LED blinks 11 times.

    Everyone has been able to diagnose this problem until the fault? A few days ago, this very laptop just turned power off and since then the battery led just blinks 11 times and nothing more. I disassembled the laptop and everything looks fine on the card (not the type to be skittish around electronics. Worked on cell phones for the last five years). Anyone have any ideas?

    Have you tried to boot up your laptop with AC only (removed battery) power?
    I really can't believe that you can find the reason why this happen if you take apart your laptop. I assume that there must be a problem with electronic control gear.

  • Satellite A100-847 - upgrade advice

    Hello

    I use the Satellite A100 - 847 (PSAA9E) for almost two years. 2 years warranty be over within a month, so I guees this is good time for an upgrade. I could use more RAM and a faster HARD drive (for purposes of CAD especially when I'm on the track) so I would like to know more about it.

    * What I already found out which is my laptop: *.
    (if I'm wrong with something to say please)

    1) ... May take 2 DDR2-DIMM modules; 4 GB max; which means 2x2gb. I have already 2X512GB, and it is not enough.
    -The question is what DDR2 memory! The FSB is running on 667 MHz, so I guess I should buy PC-5300/667 or even 6400/800?
    -What is the best memory for my laptop? Who gets very hot! What model is pretty cool?

    2) ... At a Hitachi Travelstar 5 K 100, 2.5 ", 5400 RPM, 8 MB, 100 GB SATA cache. The capacity is enough for me, but it's far too slow. So I guess I should to a 7200 RPM 16 MB disk cache.
    -The question here is my laptop support SATA2 or is - this just SATA1? What shlould buy?
    -My laptop does support disk 7200 RPM?
    -My laptop overheating with this drive?

    3) ... Could have a more efficient cooling system. Is there a solution to this?

    Thank you in advance,

    Hello

    Googling autour I ve found track information:

    The computer has two SO DIMM slot comes standard with the DDRII 4200 module. He
    supports PC2-4200 and use SO DIMM (DDRII SDRAM) leads to 1.8 V, accepting
    BTO/CTO for your memory needs. It can integrate up to 4 GB of hand
    memory.
    By using the following formats of memory modules:
    256 MB (16 M × 16 × 8 P) / 533/667 MHZ
    512 MB (32 M × 16 × 8 P) / 533/667 MHZ
    1024 MB (64Mx16x8P) / 533/667 MHZ

    If you want to use the maximum RAM, you must use two 2 GB. Toshiba recommends the use
    2 x 2 GB RAM DDR2 PA3513U-1M2G. An alternative to this RAM module are modules memory high quality Kingston .

    On HARD drive, I can say follow:
    HARD drive interface compliant to Serial ATA (for 40/60/80/100/120 GB).
    The computer can accommodate a HARD drive of 2.5 inches with all the following storage capabilities:
    40 GB SATA (9.5 mm thick) (5 400 rpm)
    60 GB SATA (9.5 mm thick) (5 400 tr/min/7200 RPM)
    80 GB SATA (9.5 mm thick) (5 400 tr/min/7200 RPM)
    100 GB SATA (9.5 mm thick) (5 400 tr/min/7200 RPM)
    120 GB (5400 RPM) SATA (9.5 mm thick)

    As far as I know that SATA2 is backward compatible and theoretically, you can use it, but I'm not sure about this. If I were you, I would by SATA1 HDD.
    As you can see, Toshiba has tested 7200 RPM hard drives with this model of laptop, and you can use it also.
    Maybe not overheating, but I can imagine that the plastic cover will be hotter than before. Make sure just the laptop is placed correctly and that there is nothing blocking the cooling fan.

    More efficient cooling system? I put t know what you mean exactly end-to-end you can try something like this.

  • Can satellite A100-847 - I replace my current HARD drive with a SATA2 HARD drive?

    Hello

    I am currently using a Satellite A100-847 with a 100 GB SATA 5400 RPM HARD drive. I plan to change with a Western Digital WD2500BEKT 250 GB SATA2 16 MB 2.5 inch laptop hard drive 7200 TRM. Is it possible to replace my current HARD drive which is SATA with a one SATA2?

    And if not what is my best option upgrade of the mine to a HARD fast (7200 RPM) disc?

    Hello!

    Yes, you can replace the current drive with a SATA2 HARD disk. You already have a SATA interface, and this means that you can use each HDD with SATA interface.

    I don't know Mr. but as far as I know the Satellite A100 cannot use the speed of SATA1. This means that the new HARD drive maybe won't work with SATA1 speed but there is no significant difference in performance.

    A HARD drive with 7200 RPM is really fast, but don t forget it produces more heat and needs more electric battery. A HARD disk at 5400 RPM is perhaps fast enough for you?

    Portege Z930 - 14L. I can't boot from the last power since.
    The domain controller in the orange Led blinks 8 times and eco green light led is lit.

    DC IN flashing ornage indicator indicates a problem with the power supply. Initially, you should try plug the adapter HAVE an another power outlet. If she does still not work, you should contact Toshiba ASP (authorized service provider)

    Electronic supply on the motherboard is probably the problem.

  • What is the recovery CD contain - Satellite A100-847

    Hello guys

    I had a few questions on the recovery CD:

    1. what the recovery CD contain? and the other CD, which is called the media something?

    2 - has Windows inside? So can I format my PC to use it? And where can I find the product key (windows key)

    3. what happens if I wanted to use the CD without formatting? etc., install the software?

    Sorry to ask too but my laptop started to bother me. Just FYI, my laptop is satellite A100-847

    Hello

    I'll try to answer your question.

    1 recovery media contains recovery image. Recovery image is a kind of package that contains the operating system, all necessary drivers, Toshiba tools and utilities and some other software like WinDVD or Norton antivir application. Media, that something is not known to me. Perhaps the exact description can help.

    2 Yes there the Windows operating system. Yes, you can format your laptop to use it. You don't need a product key. Just install it.

    3 I don't know what you mean. The fact is that HARD drive will be formatted before you start the installation of recovery. Make sure that all your important data are saved on an external device.

  • Satellite A100-847 - replacing a WLan card

    Hello

    I have Toshiba Satellite A100-847. I would change as WIFI card for new with "n" standard.
    I found some tutorials how to proceed, but it was for Toshiba A105, very similar to my only.

    I opened the bottom cover where is memory and modem, but I couldn't see all the PCI ports.
    Is it possible to do?
    Does work through mini-PCI or is integrated on the motherboard?

    Hello

    The A100 PSAA9E supports a minPCI WLan card that supports the IEEE 802 standard. 11a / g WLan standards.
    I m not 100% sure if it would be possible to upgrade the WiFi network with a WLan card 802.11 minPCI n because the two antenna cables.
    You should first clarify if the antenna is compatible with the 802.11 standard new * WLan N standard *.

    The minPCI wireless network card must be hidden under the keyboard. So you'd have to remove the keyboard first to get access to the wireless network card.
    The wireless network card is also connected to two antenna cables. The cables must be removed carefully using a pair of tweezers. Then spread plugs securing the wireless LAN card until the card appears.

    Usually it of not difficult to replace this WLan card but if you have no experience I wouldn t recommend doing this.
    This replacement must be done by a qualified technician!
    In addition you guarantee the validity could be cancelled after these updates.

    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.

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

    Anyway, why would I do that... 2 days ago, I closed the laptop (was on standby). Yesterday morning, I tried to open it. No signal on LCD, no signal on external monitor.
    Hmm, ok, I have some problems with. I asked a local ASP from Toshiba on this problem.

    I was in their office with laptop. Is is no longer guaranteed in (I have since March 2007) and I have not had a problem with until yesterday.

    OK, I paid 20 EUROS (excluding VAT) for a diagnostic report.
    For all the parts I need to fix I have to pay more for brand new Satellite A100.

    Very nice, very nice. A new A100-847 is approximately 1100EUR (VAT included)

    Now, if someone can help me with my questions...
    Thanks a lot, a lot.

    I checked the page European driver of Toshiba and unfortunately; 64-bit Vista drivers are not available for this series of laptop.

    However, there is perhaps a chance to get 64-bit drivers, I know that some series of laptops are equipped with the same features. This is why some unique drivers should run on the series of portable different too.
