• Satellite A100 PSAA9C does not work without the battery inside

  I'm having a strange problem with a laptop Satellite A100 (PSAA9C-SK900E).

  The machine will not work without the battery in it. If the power supply is connected in the machine and the wall, it will power without the battery installed. If I install the battery, let it load completely (battery LED goes from orange to blue and the plug LED is blue) then start the machine it will work for a period of time (more than an hour depending on what I'm doing) then suddenly turns off.

  If I restart the machine, it will work for a very short period (sometimes only for a few minutes) just before going off.

  If I do this a couple times, the machine will be not even by post before turning off.
  If I let the machine to recharge, it runs for a while and then do the same thing after using it for a while.
  If the battery is pooched, which is fine with me. How to operate with only the power supply of the machine?

  As I type this I'm suspecting that the adapter cannot be taken out the required voltage/amperage. (adapter is not still hot when charging, are my other laptops) Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  If I understand your assignment, the laptop does not power up without the battery
  But it will light if the battery is connected.

  The question is; Is the power led on if the AC adapter is plugged?
  If this isn't the case, then it means that the power adapter is faulty and so the laptop cannot be turned on by using only the AC adapter.

  I think you should test a new adapter. Maybe it helps!

• Satellite A100 - cannot find the recovery disk to restore to factory settings

  Hello
  I hope someone can help out me?

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A100, model PSAANA-04E005 under Windows Vista Home Premium, Service Pack 1, 32-bit. I am wanting to sell, but have all my programs stuff etc I want to erase files and be able to convey simple with system also when I bought. Memory (purchased January 2007) gave me a Toshiba Recovery with this power drive do something if I needed it's of course is not the case to be foundI.

  Is there anyway I can fix this? All I can download etc to do this?

  Thanks heaps

  Hello

  If you n t find the recovery disk more and you want to restore the original settings, ask an authorized service provider. Guys can put in order a new disc of recovery for you.
  You have the address of the guy?

  Alternative, you can also sell the laptop without recovery disks. Just wipe the HARD drive before selling it with the HARD drive like s boot cleaning tool Darik and nuke or some other program.

  But I think you get a better price if it comes with recovery disks ;)

  Hello

  You should try to remove the devices that they are marked with a yellow exclamation point. Start Notepad, and then install the latest drivers from the Toshiba site.

  If the virus has destroyed an important system files that it s is no longer possible to install a driver and you need to reinstall Windows using the Toshiba recovery disc.

  Did you create the Toshiba Recovery disk? You can do this with the Toshiba recovery disc creator, which is preinstalled on your laptop. Maybe you are able to do this at the moment.
  In addition, you reinstall Windows using the recovery of HARD drive option. So go to the advanced boot menu and select Repair my computer. Some Windows files will be loaded and then you can choose the Toshiba Recovery option and follow the instructions on the screen.

  If you can t create the recovery disk, you must order a new Toshiba directly:

• Satellite A100: Language for the Vista issue

  Hey all,.

  I just bought myself a Satellite A100 something something with Vista Home premium.

  When I turned on the computer on windows, it has proved to be the French. That in itself is not surprising, as I live in Belgium, where people speak Dutch and French. "Not a problem," I thought: "this manual is in French, Dutch and English, and therefore all the documentation.

  I'm sure the restore disc has all three languages out there, and I'll simply choose English. Or even the Dutch one for that matter. Anything other than the French! »

  So I start from the restore disc, and, Oh surprise, there are three languages out there: French, Dutch and English. Unfortunately, the computer won't let me choose any language but French because "you have selected French, now, you're stuck with it. (off bugger) ", or something like that.

  Unfortunately, I never selected French: the Distributor, or Toshiba himself has made. Is it possible to bypass this protection, or I'll have to return the laptop and make sure that I do not get a French?

  Thank you

  Hello

  One question: has Vista already installed on the laptop when you started the laptop for the first time?
  Usually the Vista operating system there are on the HARD drive, but if you turn on the laptop for the first time, you should get the CONFIGURATION window and you should be able to set all the parameters such as language, country and keyboard by yourself.

  By the way; This is not a bug in recovery CD! As far as I know, you can only choose one language from the recovery CD that supports 3 languages. I guess that this State is saved in the BIOS or elsewhere and you can select only this language which was chosen at the first time.

  In your case I contact the dealer of the new laptop and ask the guy if they or someone else has already installed the OS on this laptop

• Satellite A100 - problem with the operation of the battery

  Hello!

  My laptop (I bought 1.5 years ago) has a big problem when you use with the battery.
  First of all, with a fully charged battery, the notification of "limited battery status" appears after 2 minutes of operation and after 5 minutes, he goes to the standby mode due to the level of the battery is very low.

  Then, I plug it into the AC power and the battery remains yellow for about 15 minutes light and then turns blue.
  (The battery is OK, I tested it on another satellite A100)

  What can be the problem?

  Thanks in advance!

  Maria

  Given that you have tested the battery in another satellite A100, the problem must be in the settings of your computer:

  1 > START > CONTROL PANEL > POWER SELECT THE OPTIONS ICON

  2 > you will now see a screen that shows your management food and note * one * has a tick that is a small point in a circle:

  3 > BALANCED > POWER SAVER > HIGH PERFORMANCE

  4 > THE PLAN OF POWER > CLICK ON CHANGE PLAN SETTINGS > WILL DISPLAY A SCREEN SHOWING YOUR PLAN!

  5 > GO TO > * CLICK * WHERE IT SAYS CHANGE ADVANCED POWER SETTINGS

  6 > IF YOU SCROLL THE BAR TO THE * SIGN + > BATTERY-CLICK * THE * SIGN.

  7 > YOU SHOULD HAVE: you will need to have play with these settings, or you can click on restore plan defaults to see if that will solve your problem

  Notes by clicking on the * + plus SIGN next to tany of these options below will allow you to change what event happens on your computer.

• Satellite A500 - problem with the monitor after restoration

  Hello
  I have a Satellite A500. He has a problem with the monitor for a while, when you turn it on it's all lines etc. and you can not read but once the laptop to boot completely it is fine. My problem is that I wanted to do a restore, but I couldn't because the screen problem it started so I plugged into an external monitor and perform the restore. That has worked well.

  But now the laptop recognizes any my laptop screen. When you go to view it offers no other monitor choice other than external, I used for the restoration. I downloaded the display driver but nothing has changed.
  ANY IDEAS?

  Thank you

  (I have the disks for the restoration, if that helps.)

  > There a problem with the monitor for a while, when you turn it on it's all lines etc. and you can't read
  If I understand you right you can see when laptop starts and you see Toshiba welcome screen. Is this good?
  When you enter the BIOS settings you see thise lines too?

  Later, when you see the desktop on the external monitor, you can use the FN + F5 key combination to switch between an LCD and external monitor. Please try to use it and post comments if it works or not.

  What operating system do you use?

• Satellite A100 - replacement of the cooling fan

  Hi guys,.

  I have a Satellite A100 model computer and fan cooling for the right heat sink dropped on me a few days ago.

  I rang Toshiba, who told me that it cost E120 more parts to install a new fan. I see CPU fans online for as little as E5 and have a good idea on how to open my computer to install but I am not sure what exact fan kind I need to buy if anyone can help I would be grateful.

  Need more info just ask and I'll post a response.

  Hello!

  Not all fans to adapt in each book.
  So I think that the fan for Satellite A100 is not so cheap and don t forget it is not easy to disassemble a laptop. That's why it takes a lot of time and you need to remove a large number of screws.

  Of course you can do it by yourself, but you will need the original Satellite A100 cooling fan. Maybe you can find one on eBay or elsewhere.
  Good luck!

  Good bye

• Satellite A100 - by pressing the Enter key and BACKSPACE insert a backslash

  The keyboard on my Satellite A100 has a perculiar behavior.
  The Enter key and BACKSPACE times return the insertion point to the beginning of the next line, and then insert a backslash.

  The behavior is similar in various products such as MS Word, internet Explorer, Notepad, WordPad, to name a few.
  The BACKSPACE key returns to the top of the page in MS Word and Notepad.

  This behavior is very frustrating and makes every day very difficult calculation.

  Does anyone have a solution to this problem

  Hello

  First I thought that this could be a result keyboard or Ms Word, Notepad setting language setting
  But while reading the story one more time, I think that this problem could be linked to the failure of hardware.
  But this is just a suggestion.

  I put t know if this problem would appear on new recovered BONES.
  Have you tried to restore the operating system using the Toshiba Recovery CD?
  Maybe you should do to see if it's really a hardware problem

  Good luck

• Satellite A100-683: is the security number serial number?

  Hello! I have a toshiba satellite a100-683.

  I want to register my standard warranty on the site.

  The serial number is necessary and important for the registration of the guarantee and you need this number for sure!
  But I m not 100% sure if the number of warranty is the same as the serial number.
  So maybe it s is!
  Serial number, which you will find at the bottom of the laptop!

• Satellite A100-756: where the microphone?

  Hello.
  I just bought this computer (Satellite A100-756) 2 days ago, and in the manual it says he built into the microphone, but I can't find it.
  I was trying to voice chat on MSN messenger, but the other person couldn't hear a thing.
  I have this light manually? If the answer is "Yes", if you please tell me how to do it.

  Thanks for your help.

  Hello

  I checked the features of this unit, and according to some descriptions internal microphone is NOT available. There is a mic jack. Here, you can connect the external microphone.

  It is possible that some units of this series support and are delivered with the internal mic, but not the Satellite A100-756's.

  For most operating instructions describes all the features on the series of the laptop. But not all units support all features.

• Can satellite A100 - I put the HARD drive with 7200 RPM model?

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A100-044, I would spend my the 120 GB HARD drive to a more large (250 GB or 320 GB).

  A 7200 RPM would work on this subject? It seems Web compatibility sites they show 5400 RPM more, I would like to set up my laptop for recording/mastering so music wants a fast machine, I don't really mind if it consumes more energy...

  Any thoughts?

  Thank you
  Stone

  Hello!

  Of course, you can swap the HARD drive with a model more fast using 7200 RPM. But as you say, it takes a little more energy. The new HARD drive should be a little faster, especially access time should be lower.

  250 GB or 320 GB should be possible; you need a HARD drive with SATA interface.

  I hope I could help a bit.

  Good bye

• Beeping sound and flashing - Satellite A100-200 at the beginning upward

  My Satellite A100-200 is three months old and stopped working. When I start there is a continuous beep and a flasher above the hard drive indicator.

  Is that what I can do or is it a warranty repair

  Hello

  stop your machine immediately, or that you have installed things before? Have you tried to remove the hard drive and if you have 2 RAM modules at least one of them?

  If all fails, you will need to give your machine a local service partner. They will then solve your problem.
