Satellite A100 battery is empty after 1 hour
Hello
I have a problem with my Satellite A100-720:
When I change to normal energy saver, the battery is empty after almost an hour.
Even if I change to long mode, the battery is empty after 1.5 hours.
Anyone has the same problem?
Is this normal or maybe my battery is damaged.
Thanks for every answer you need
(And sorry for my bad English)
Hello
No, I don't think that there is something wrong with the battery.
The fact is that the battery performance is dependent on the use of the laptop and so you can get different results of time.
You said you use the A100. Well, to my knowledge some A100 series laptops have been delivered with a standard battery of 2000mAh.
If you want to use the laptop longer with the power of the battery I advise you to buy an extended battery packs.
On the Toshiba Options & Accessories site you will find various supported batteries.
Maybe you'll find a Li-ion, 6000mAh battery 9-cell or Li-ion 12 cells, 8600mAh

Satellite A110-149: the battery is empty after about an hour
Hello
I bought a satellite A110-149, but I'm worried for the battery as in only 1 hour or a little more, it is already empty. Is this normal?If I let my laptop connected to an outlet throughout the day, this can make my battery less efficient?
Thank you!
Hello
Laptop battery of specification of the run time is until 1:45. But I think it is quite unrealistic. Battery life depends on many factors like the profile selected in the intelligence tool, run the applications and processes and perhaps the use of the optical disk drive.
At the end I can tell you that there is no problem and this time rung is normal for this laptop and battery 4 cells.

Satellite A200 - battery empty after 2 hours
My laptop SATELLITE A 200 - BJ runs exactly 2 hours when I'm on the plane "save energy" - then I have to download. Is it normal?
I bought 1 month ago and I don't konow how :(
Please help me, thxHello
Why would it not normal? I presume that you very well now that Vista uses more resources than Windows XP Home edition and it is logical that energy consumption is also higher than on Windows XP Home edition.
To be honest the 2 hours is OK for this model of laptop. I have the Satellite A200-1CR and battery is also about 2 hours. Less than 2 hours, but sometimes it depends on notebook use.

Satellite A100 - battery life is increased from 100 min to 20 min after 1.5 years
After 1.5 years, the battery life dropped about 100 minutes within 30 minutes.
I thought that the battery was bad, but after that Windows automatically stopped because he thought that the battery was empty. I plugged the power cord for 10 seconds approximately, started the computer laptop, unplugged immediately and let it run in the BIOS screen. It has been running for more than 45 minutes, so that the laptop is off. Then
I guess the battery was still high capacity, but somehow calibration data has become invalid.
Is it possible to calibrate the battery? I have not found such a feature in the BIOS, where all my other phones have such a feature (even if I never need for others!)
Concerning
ThomasHello
I think you're a little confused about the duration of battery life and performance of the battery.
But you should t be confused because it is nothing unusual.After about 500 times charge/discharge, the battery will begin to lose clean performance.
This means that after a longer time of use, the battery performance will decrease and a day you need to replace.My 7 year old laptop doesn t work on battery power. The power of the battery takes about 2 min same it s fully charged. I know that I should replace, but I use this laptop as desktop Pc. It s always plugged in.
If don t wonder about the performance of your battery. It s normal behavior.

Satellite A100: Battery does not charge
I have a problem with the battery of high capacity on the Satellite A100-720. Accidentally I forgot the action of critical battery set to 'No action', so the battery got virtually completely discharged and now the laptop refuses to charge the battery. The orange light comes on, but the NHC program reports no load current and just on 0%.
It is also strange that if I stop the laptop and unplug the power cable and then reinsert, it takes a second or two for the connector blue AC light upward and another a few seconds for the battery charging light illuminates... that's not happened before.Is there a way to fix this?
Hello
While the laptop is turned on and connected to the adapter try to remove the battery and put it back up shortly after. Look at what happens and we report.
By the way: what is the number of the part of this battery high capacity you use with your Satellite A100?

Satellite A100 - Internet becomes slower after 10 minutes
Hello
the Satellite A100 worked well for a few years, the internet has become suddenly too slow after 10 minutes of the start.
The laptop switched on the first time that the internet works very well the 10 first minutes then becomes slower and slower until almost no packets are received but the connection does not completely down.Suspected spyware, rootkit, is cleaning up, and then installed from the disk recovery
Then I tried the same thing. Uninstalled the connection to the local network and then reinstalled from the Device Manager, nothing.
I figured that the Ethernet port is a failure. Then I used an adapter usb-to-Ethernet D - Link is completely independent of the integrated Ethernet hardware. Nothing, same behavior, working, first fine then Firefox displays a downtimeThe modem, cable, internet are all very well since I have tested with a PC and a laptop Fujitsu (5 years) and they all work very well. Even the D-Link works fine.
The Toshiba pc diagnostic tool specifically says "Network Fail", but it crashes exactly?An idea or a similar experience?
Hello
Hmmmmm... It sounds quite complicated.
What is with WLAN? Have you noticed the same behavior using the WIFI connection? -
Satellite A100 - battery rest led lit Orange
Hello
The battery rest light color Orange/orange and the battery symbol on my task bar constantly States ' 87% available (plugged in, load). I'm connected. If I remove the card, the computer is de-energized immediately.
I tried a new original Toshiba 'Battery', but I had the same problem. The only difference is that the battery symbol on my task bar constantly States "70% available (plugged in, load).
I checked the battery contacts and the computer, they look very good.
What should I do?
Should I install the drivers? Or could it be the motherboard?I have a Toshiba Satellite A100 - 683 ModelNo. PSAA9E
With sincere friendships.
ChrisTry to start computer laptop without battery and put in place when the OS is fully charged. The same thing happens again? Unfortunately I think that it will not be the difference.
What happens when the laptop is turned off? Battery can be fully charged (green LED)?

How can I install the Microsoft BT on Satellite A100 battery?
How to install Microsoft Bluetooth Stack?
I tried the way it is described in the readme file:
Uninstall Toshiba Stack, reboot, install Bluetooth Monitor 2 (I copy the files needed to C:\Toshiba\MS_Bluetooth), restart.
After that, windows wants to install Toshiba RFBUS for which I have no drivers.
There is no way to enter the windows bluetooth [not this control in the Options panel] settings.It does not work!

Hello
DeepBlue is quite right. All Satellite A100 units are not delivered with BT on board. Please see the bottom of your laptop. If BT is available you will find a small stick of BT.
Good bye

Satellite A100 PSAA2E Setup hangs after connecting new HARD drive
Hello
I have a problem with TOSHIBA Satellite A100 PSAA2E (3 year old laptop)
I bought the new SAMSUNG SPINPOINT 250 GB SATA (model HM250JI) hard drive.After connection, the computer hangs on the first screen. I can't access the BIOS Setup (press F2)
I can't boot the CD of form (I can't select same drive to start by pressing F12)It just hangs.
When the HARD drive is unplugged I can access the configuration of the BIOS or boot from CD. When the original hard drive (FUJITSU 40BG) is connected, everything is ok.
I updated the BIOS to version 1.5 to the a more recent 2.6, but it did not help.
HARD drive runs under windows xp, when connected by USB port. It is formatted with NTFS: a primary partition(15GB), a stretch with two logical partitions (20BG, GB 215).
You have no idea where could be the problem?
Should I format hard drive in a different way?BR,
hosss
Hello
Check if your new HARD drive has been fitted with a small jumper that controls the master/slave/c-salt settings.
A friend of mine bought a new HARD drive and BIOS didn't recognize because the rider has been set to the wrong position.

Satellite A100 - battery all night while the power is off
Hello world
I have a new Satellite A100 and I noticed that when I fully charge it and then turn the power off and remove the plug from the socket, the next day when I stick it back in the socket of the control light yellow says that he is in charge.
So, I turned on the computer laptop and checked is full battery and it says 94%. I let it finish loading at 100% then it off again and came out of the plug. The same thing happened the next day! He held again!
I don't know that I did not in Hibernate mode because I checked all the settings and choose Turn Off to turn off the laptop.
I read on the battery recall, so I searched on the toshiba site and downloaded the program from battery test. The result came out that my battery is not between the serial numbers involved. I even manually checked the number on their list but mine is not supposed to be affected.
Is anyone having the same problems, or is it normal that the battery itself?
Please let me know... Thanks :)
Hello
It is normal and you should not worry about this. The same thing happen on my Tecra. Please check this Toshiba document on this http://support.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/FAQ6301EP000ER01.htm

Toshiba Satellite A100 (model PSAA8) chipset Intel
Hey mate,
If you have the same problem on an external monitor I think that it s related to the motherboard or something else. He should t be a problem of the internal screen I think
It's really hard to say something about it, but you can try to update the display driver and BIOS. The two you can find on the Toshiba site.
Check it!In addition, it would be interesting to know what operating system you are using. Operating system preinstalled Toshiba?

Satellite L750 - battery does not last 1 hour and does not completely load
I have a L750 and battery not work duration 1 hour and will not be completely free
Is it normal that it's not even 12 months old
It is not easy to answer your question. I would say that this is not normal, but unfortunately it happens. I'm afraid that you can't change anything except to change the power settings and try to reduce the power consumption of m.
As Akuma already written maybe it's both for the replacement of the battery.
