• Satellite A100 - BIOS password not accepted after computer take part

  (Sorry if this question has been asked before, I searched through topics, but too many subjects was found.)

  I have an old A100 for 3 years with no guarantee. I want to sell it so I took apart to clean dust. Everything for the motherboard. When everything has been cleaned and I reinstalled everything, I turned it on and the password of the BIOS has not been accepted. I know the password and it's OK to 100% and shift lock is not locked on.

  Is it possible that the keyboard flat cable has been installed wrongly, the cable was - a.f.a.i.k - reinstalled right, because there is only one way to insert into the slot on the motherboard. (Sorry for my bad English)

  Or BIOS confused and handed over to zero in some Toshiba service password? Is this possible?

  The caps lock is locking itself led of lights up and can not turn off with the CAPS LOCK key.

  What is the solution?

  > Is it possible that the keyboard flat cable has been installed wrongly,
  Connect the keyboard external usb to check (this is good if you remove the internal keyboard when checking)

  > Or BIOS confused and handed over to zero in some Toshiba service password? Is this possible?
  No, it is impossible that this password has been reset. In any case, I've never heard

• Satellite A100 - recovery will not be finished and stop error message occurs

  Satellite A100-S2211TD, OS is Windows XP Home Edition of recovery disk,

  I have updated the BIOS to 2.20 and laptop was working fine. The old installation of Windows factory has worked well.
  After a few weeks, I tried to use the recovery disk to remove the noise from the HARD drive.
  The recovery of disk task completed and the computer restarted.
  I got the stop error message
  STOP: 0x0000007B (0xFA335528, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
  I removed the memory that I have entered over the past two years and return the PC in the factory scene.
  However, recovery will not be finished (he worked to restore).

  I am able to boot in dos with a separate boot disk (Dr. back, windows does not start, not even in the safe control mode) and I did chdsk of the disc and disc is fine.

  I've never used before recovery disc, the only thing different is BIOS 2.20 instead of 1.50.
  WEB of TOSHIBA said that if you upgrade the BIOS most 2.00 you can not return to 1. XX

  Thank you

  Hello

  The A100-S2211TD doesn t support the Intel Chipset!
  This laptop was equipped with the ATI graphics card and the graphics driver on the Toshiba page contains us the graphics driver and chipset driver!

  Have you received 100% good recovery CD?

  In your case I would try to install Win XP from the Microsoft CD to check if the same error would appear if no drivers are included in the CD of the OS.

• Satellite A100-383 does not start - not battery

  Hello.

  I have an old Toshiba Satellite A100 - 383.
  Recent months its battery will remain as defendant for 20-25 minutes.

  OK, that's an old laptop, it's normal, I thought... I connected the laptop to the grid and I haven´t you have any problem. I stayed several hours with the laptop with no problems.

  But yerstarday, the laptop was closed suddenly and now, do not start. I see that the battery symbol flashes 11 times.

  So I have a few questions:

  1 - this laptop, works not connected to the network * without * battery? I thought it was possible...

  2 - What is the problem? Battery? Charger? How I know this?

  3-If the problem is the battery, how much would a new?

  Thank you very much. (and sorry for my English).

  > But, yesterday, the laptop was closed suddenly and now, do not start. I see that the battery symbol flashes 11 times.

  Usually the laptop automatically stops due to high temperatures. Is the kind of physical protection, but after a few minutes, you should be able to turn on the device, the led flashing could mean that there is a problem with the electronic power supply on the motherboard means that the motherboard is affected.

  You can try after bypass. :
  Remove the dough (if it is not already removed), unplug the AC adapter, press the power button / stop for 30 seconds.
  Now, plug in the AC adapter and try to turn on the unit.

  > 1 - this laptop, works not connected to the network without battery? I thought it was possible...
  Generally, it should be possible to use the laptop without the battery.

  > 2 - what is the problem? Battery? Charger? How I know this?
  Not easy to say: If the laptop powers not even using the power adapter, a power adapter or the motherboard might not work. If the two parties must be verified by the technician.

  > 3 - If the problem is the battery, how much would a new?
  Don t think that its battery from the laptop should run with adapter only

  Hello

  It is a never-ending story.
  Many media doesn t work with my drive. I have tested many media from different manufacturers and now I use a some of the TDK media.

  Generally, you will find in the manual the user who must be preinstalled on your laptop a list with compatible and supported CD and DVD.
  These media should work properly and the reader must read and burn without any problem.

  But of course, sometimes a failed drive can be a reason for no reading or no combustion.

• Re: After upgrade on Satellite A100 BIOS cannot use keyboard more

  Need help... after bios upgrade for Toshiba Satellite A100 my keyboard error... now I can't use my keyboard...
  If I used the external keyboard, as there not enough power into the USB...
  Now, how come back to start bios version...

  Thank you or any medium

  Hello

  Enter the BIOS (by pressing F2 at startup) and try to check in the Bios if compatible keyboard, legacy usb support (something like that) is enabled. It should help.
  Otherwise, playing with the up/downgrade Bios (especially, demote) instead of keyboard problem, can cause the crash of the complete system with white screen.

• Satellite A100-590 does not fuel upward, that a single LED works

  Hello Toshiba-Crew,

  first of all I want to say sorry if you don't understand some parts of my text, but my English isn't the best more :(

  As explained in the topic I have a Satellite A100-590. I got it as a gift from my father-in-law after the A100-590 no longer works and he bought another new laptop because the customer terrible service from Toshiba.
  As much as I want to try if someone of you can help me.

  Now to point to the problem of my A100-590.
  It worked very well for my father-in-law for about a year. Then all of a sudden it no longer turns.

  The only thing that happens is the power led (the one in the middle of the five) flashes, when the power cord is connected and the power button is pressed. This light flashes 10 times and that's all that happens.
  It flashes only when the power cord is not plugged in, if only the battery is put in.

  I mention that the battery is totally empty, because the Satellite has not been used for about a year and a half now.
  The A100-590 was sent to Toshiba already, but the only thing Toshiba has done has been to send everything back one put a paper in that the motherboard needs to be changed and it would cost around 650.

  I think they don't even look at the satellite, I know that from my other computer laptop manufacturer too.
  It seems as if changing the motherboard is the best way to repair a laptop. FS said it too, but it was only one my card WIFI which was broken.

  Maybe someone of you had an idea of what might be wrong with the Satellite?
  I think this isn't a big thing, but does not fit my technical knowledge of the laptop.

  Kind regards
  Basti

  First you need to isolate the problem to the motherboard.

  Try to swap the memory modules around and try to start with a single Module, try the other location.

  If you can access the Wifi card, remove and see if it boots.

  If it still fails, then its likely to be a faulty motherboard or video card if the laptop has a.

• Unlocking on Satellite A100 BIOS

  Hello
  Anyone able to confirm the official and non-official line regarding it have a unlocked locked BIOS. Have a Toshiba Satellite A100 523 model: PSAA2E-01D00JEN

  Are the BIOS USB unlocking devices listed on ebay any use?

  Best regards

  HI Martin,

  Officially, the only way to get your BIOS password reset must take your laptop to authorized service center which will need to verify your ownership of notebook before feflashing of the BIOS.

  Unofficialy there are various "devices" that claim to reset or bypass the password of the BIOS so that you can access the BIOS Setup panels and also the operating system. You will find instructions for making these devices (involving generally taken cross-wiring and old parallel port) If you search Google for "BIOS Password Reset".

  I know that on some laptops, but are not guaranteed to work on all of them, especially models later these devices.

  Kind regards

• Satellite A100: Bios password appears - what should I do?

  Hello world

  Last year, I bought my toshiba Satellite A100. I never set a Bios password. Today I was working normal. Then I restarted my laptop and got the password.

  Now I can't access my laptop. Is this a common problem? What should I do?

  concerning

  No, this isn't a common problem. It s absolutely impossible that a BIOS password is stated zero part.

  In general, you will need to send the machine to an ASP for the removal of the password, but before you do, I would ask all members of your family who has access to your computer if it has put a bios password and wanted to make a joke (in this case it s not a really nice joke)

• Satellite A100-289 - does not accept the second module RAM

  Hello
  Sorry for my bad English

  I have a problem with my RAM secend slot. At the first bank i installt 1 GB 533 MHz DDR2 RAM in the second Bank too. The laptop starts but when I installed the second RAM after the BIOS Windows screen accepts 2 GB of RAM.

  Hello

  > but when I installed the second RAM after the BIOS Windows screen accept 2 GB of RAM.
  This means that you install RAM modules while the laptop is running?
  I m wondering your laptop still works. Normally, you could destroy the whole motherboard and the module.

  Anyway, to me it sounds like that your laptop isn't compatible with the memory modules vive. What modules do you have exactly?
  I have good experiences with the Kingston modules.

• Satellite A100-906 does not cool boot

  Hello
  I'm new here on the forum, so hi to everyone.
  I have this Toshiba Satellite A100-906, one I'm trying to fix and explain (because up to now, I tried a lot of things) the problem.
  It has Windows XP Pack 2 and every time that I perfom a Toshiba start log on the collar, but stops loading Windows. This only happens to the cold start, I mean after two-three times closing down and start again from the power button, I can stop and start the laptop normally.
  What I've tried (even have a tech): run the Test Mem, repair Windows registry, update bios, update drivers, reinstall OS form the recovery CD - NOTHING!

  Thanks in advance

  Hi marina_2,

  Which is really strange and I m wondering have you always this strange behavior after using the Toshiba recovery disc. Normally with this disc, you get back factory settings where everything should work properly.

  Well, I think that it s a hardware malfunction, but it is difficult to tell what it is exactly. You can try to check the disk with Drive Fitness Test or another tool (ask Google for it).

  Contacting one ASP would also be an option I think
