Satellite A100-new or old battery is not

Hello
I have a Satellite A100 - 543 (PSAARE).

The original battery was not charging so I bought a new. Now a new charge or the other. I then ordered a new charger before coming on this forum so I'll try that when it happens, but I think that the problem is not resolved.

With the new battery, the icon says "10% usable, plugged, in charge. The icon, when the laptop is first turned on, shows the load bar moving (load) but after a few moments, stop.

With the old battery in the icon says "connected, charge." It shows the empty.
In both cases, the battery light is on.

If I get the charger to the laptop computer, the computer stops immediately.

Trawl the forums I see one proposed solution is an upgrade of the BIOS. I have the BIOS version 5.80
See: http://www.laptoprepair101.com/laptop/2006/05/23/toshiba-satellite-a105-battery-charging-problem/comment-page-19/#comment-151154

However I can not find my model (see above) on the list of Toshiba! It was purchased in France and out of warranty.

Again I am doubtful that this will solve the problem.

Others point out the motherboard. How I know this? If it's someone have an idea of the cost?

I hope someone can help.

Yes, it seems that Yes. Looks like only a mobo replacement could help

  • The Satellite A100 created recovery, but DVD does not start

    I'm trying to reload a Satellite A100 with the DVD that was created when I started the laptop when he bought the news of recovery 11 months ago.

    I changed the boot order so that the DVD is first and when you restart, the drive runs at high speed, so it works

    No option is presented to be able to boot from this drive (as the usual "press a key to reboot from DVD")

    If I press F8 when booting I get a list of the options-led FIX YOUR COMPUTER that is highlighted.
    I then press ENTER and get a message "Windows is loading files".
    The system recovery options are then displayed, keyboard, layout, then the opening of the session, what I do using an administrator account.
    I am then presented with a screen with 6 system recovery options
    -Startup Repair
    -System restore - restore to an earlier point in time
    -Restoration of Windows complete PC (from backup)
    -Windows memory diagnostic
    -Command Promt
    -Restoriing the full Windows operating system

    There are 2 buttons {color: #000000} * low _S_hut * {color} and * _R_estart *.

    When I select the last option all I get is another screen with the message
    The complete oprtating of Windows System Restore *.

    If the pre-installed files are damaged you can use the product Recvoery DVD - Rom to restore (which is what I'm trying to do)
    A caveat against the loss of data is also included and then the OK button which, when clicked on resturns me to the previous screen without action
    If I select shutdown or restart it's there for that and boots from the hard drive.
    The disc is not damaged, I can copy him on system, then one more

    Can someone tell me how to start and recover from this drive?

    Hello

    Sorry, but you have misunderstood something. I'll try to be clear now:

    -Via recovery CD/DVD, you CAN NOT repair already preinstalled the operating system. Using Recovery CD/DVDs, you can make clean OS install only. Please note that, prior to installation, the procedure begins old BONE is removed.
    -Reading your ad, I think that you try to use Microsoft Vista of origin and not the recovery image options because when you start the recovery procedure is no different 6 menus

    Can you please tell me what is the problem with your Satellite A100? What are the files that you are trying to fix? What happens at the start of your laptop?

  • Re: Satellite C660 - 1 M 0 - battery does not work long

    I have a new Satellite C660 - 1 M 0, and after using it for a week, the battery does not as long as compared to the first time that I used it.

    I heard that a charge of initial battery life of 8 hours is required before the 1st use. Is this true?

    Hi richardvdoran,

    The battery time depends on usage and what you do. For example if you run a large number of programs and work with a high CPU utilization low autonomy and requires AC adapter / CC soon. Also surf the Internet needs battery power.

    You can improve the battery life if you use the eco mode power plan. This will reduce the brightness and other things to improve the battery life.

    First battery charge time may be 8 hours but that's different and according to other things.

  • Satellite A100-906: Express Media Player does not create the c partition

    I recently bought the Satellite A100-906 model and I would like to make a partition to save the data, but the already existing partition with the reader of the Express does not allow part C: partitioning.

    If I delete the partition Express I'll be able to install it after I divide the part C: or I have to choose between separation and the Media Player?

    In my opinion it should work, but you must create the Express Media Player partition with the same size as the old.

    PS: Do you know the Partitions Magic 8? This software allows you to create partitions while Windows is running. It's a great tool

  • Satellite A100-049: CDs and DVDs do not read after standby

    I have a new satellite A100-049 delivered with vista home premium pre-installed. After returning to the computer from sleep/wake (whatever mode is when the yellow light pulses) without discs can be read in the drive. The disc rotates constantly, but nothing will happen.

    Everything works well when the computer is turned on at the first time, but after the sleep he stopped playing discs. Is that what I can do about it?

    Hello

    What happens if you remove the media CD or DVD of the training after the laptop back to sleep/wake?

    I mean that you should remove the Middle, close the CD tray, then open the drive, insert the CD/DVD and check if the laptop recognizes the middle.

  • Satellite A100-998: CD/DVD player does not recognize digital camera installation disk

    Hello world.

    I just tried to install my digital Canon camera on my Satellite A100 - 998 (PSAA9E), but the drive just won't start. It is not recognizing that the disc is in the drive.

    I tried the drive with a music CD and it works very well and thinking the disc that came with the camera was defective, I tried in my desktop pc, and it installed without a problem.

    Anyone have any ideas why my portable drive is to play music CDs, but not to pick up the cd software...

    Your help would me most appreciated.
    Rgds,
    Neil

    Weird noises...
    Do you have any burning application or something that has to do with CD-writing/emulation/etcetc. ?

    Maybe these programs may cause such problems. Just to realize what you have on your system and tell us, maybe we can find a solution.

  • Satellite A100-773: CD/DVD player does not recognize the CD

    Hello friends,

    I have satellite A100-773.
    When I turned on it today it does not recognize any CD. He acknowledges, however, DVD and can also burn CDs with Nero.

    As soon as I put in a CD it says (in German) something like "access denied, unauthorized function.
    It's a mystery to me what happened. Until yesterday, it was perfect. Now the same CD (and I tried 20) wouldn' work anymore.

    I tried the recovery system to an earlier point in time, but it does not help. In the hardware Manager tells me that everything is going well.

    Do you have any idea what it can be?

    Thank you very much

    Ognian

    Hello

    In such cases, it s is not easy to say why it happens.
    Usually if the drive cannot read media either material works badly or the CD / DVD is not compatible and taken in charge.

    But we hope that the equipment is not damaged.
    Try to remove the drive from Device Manager and restart the laptop.
    After that restart of the operating system should recognize the drive again and load the driver. Then you could try to test the drive again.

    I also found a very large Microsoft document on:
    How to troubleshoot problems that occur when you copy data on a CD - R or CD - RW optical disc in Windows XP
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/324129

    and this:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315350/

    The other possibility is to use the recovery CD to reinstall the OS.

  • Satellite A100: Norton error appears - memory could not be read

    0 x 02459962 referred memory 0x5902adf8 memory can not be read.

    This error keeps showing upwards.
    Can anyone help? He came to norton when I do a check up.
    Also, I get an error when I close internet explore tells me msvcr.80.dll is not found.

    Aside from that my laptop works ok, it is a satellite A100.

    Hello

    I think that this file msvcr.80.dll is part of the .NET Framework 2.0.
    I would try to install the version or see if you can do a repair on it via Add/Remove software.

    I studied and declined to find out why the error of Norton.
    But the address of memory does not help.
    However, it seems that you have installed something that might be a bad influence.

    Maybe a switching of the BONE at the beginning good point work would clear this issue.

  • Satellite A100-204: 1BAS 1BRS battery duration difference?

    Someone looking for some batteries that would be consistent for my Toshiba Satellite A100-204 in an earlier topic

    He gave me
    PA3399U-2BRS (6cell)
    PA3399U-2BAS (6cell)
    PA3478U-1BRS (9cell)
    PA3478U-1BAS (9cell)
    PA3400U-1BRS (12cell)
    PA3400U-1BAS (12cell)

    I want more large one so the 12cell is best I think. What I find weird, that's all I want, PA3400U-1BAS (12cell) has 12 hours, but PA3400U-1BRS only has 5-6 hours. Why is it, or is it wrong.

    I want the larger battery and it is THERE I think, but I can only find the sites of the Australia, and they ship worldwide.
    I need one that can send it to the Netherlands, and in fact I need within a week now: s

    I thought that maybe it's because they count the hours for the portable real is to dethrone and on mine, it might be so different...

    Please help me.

    Thnx in advance

    Hi jk_dance

    Please check you first posting:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=13414

    I found the compatible batteries on the Toshiba site Options & accessories.
    However, I think that extending BRS or DOWN means the ability of the cells.
    I guess that BRS is a standard battery and DOWN means that cells high capacity.

    In addition, it should be possible to order that all batteries form the Toshiba service partner in your country.

  • Satellite A100 PSAA9A - can read DVD BUT not CD with Windows XP

    I use a satellite A100 PSAA9A computer laptop and I started having trouble with the CD/DVD drive. It was working fine until yesterday when he decided not read no matter what CD I get the message asking me to insert a disc, when there is a CD in the drive. It still reads DVD good.
    I don't know if he has anything to do with the download of the updates of Windows XP because the troubl seems to start after I did.
    Is there somewhere in the creation for the player who controls this? Also when I run the troubleshooting test it always ignores the test of this drive.
    I'd appreciate any help.
    See you soon

    Optical drives, DVDS, has some different faces to work with CD and DVD, but objective and optics are the same. He had arrived, when in one two heads become a dust or something else. I thing that you must visit the Service and your disk cleanup. But do not use a cleaning disc!
    PS. Windows updates, as and OS, are not issues.
    Make sure it's easy - attempt to start bootCD (not BootDVD) with anyone by pressing F12 at startup. If the running machine - it's Windows, if not - DVD player.
    See you soon

  • Satellite A100 - video clips of TV will not play

    I can't see the video clips TV on my Toshiba Satellite A100 laptop, they just won't play.

    Any suggetions which part is missing please?

    Thank you very much BRIJOY

    Hello

    I think you should give us more details and explain the situation better.

    What OS do you have?
    What you mean with the video clips TV? Do you mean videos on YouTube for example, or videos stored on your computer?
    Which player do you use?

    If you want to watch videos on your computer, you should try another player. I prefer VLC media player. It can play audio and video files more.

  • Satellite A100 - Sk9 PSAASC - Lan drivers does not exist?

    I bought the laptop Satellite A100 Sk9 for school and we are required to put win xp pro top. I formatted my machine and went to do a fresh install of xp pro and have found that there is no work LAN drivers for this laptop.

    There is a download for something I thought was the LAN driver and after that I downloaded this file (using the wireless) and extract there is no driver file in archive all that there some dll and an uninstall application, but nothing else.

    Can someone help me with this please? I am an urgent need for this driver because he must use the connection cable in the classroom.

    HELP ME :)

    Where did you find this LAN driver?
    It seems that this device was designed for the Australian market and therefore, you should check the Australian Toshiba page.

    However, you have already downloaded the driver.
    You can try to install in the Device Manager. Simply enter in the Device Manager, select the network card and choose install driver option
    Then, choose the driver downloaded on the HARD drive and finish the procedure...

  • Satellite A-L50-19N 0% battery and not charging

    Hello

    I used Toshiba eco utility and battery lifecycle saving mode (power icon in the State reported half full and not load bar).

    Recently, I was forced to reinstall Windows, which has also removed all the drivers and software from Toshiba.
    Now II'm having problems with the battery charge not, reports set to 0% and no battery power icon not charging even when main DC is plugged.

    I noticed this laptop often turns off the coast during the start or restart.
    I guess that's due to the condition of the battery.
    In other words, I can't re-enable charging battery.

    Power off the battery voltage in the BIOS and two sequential reboots do not seem to solve the problem.

    Hello

    How and what system reinstall you?

    Have you used the image of Toshiba (average DVD or recovery USB memory) or maybe the HARD drive recovery? Or did you install the system using Microsoft Windows disc clean?

    In case you have used the Microsoft Windows disk clean; have you installed all the drivers Toshiba and the Toshiba UE driver page tools?

    Your comments would be greatly appreciated.
