• Satellite A100 - will not charge the battery

  Hello

  I have ned to help. My Satellite A100 will not charge the battery. He works the power adaptor for the led indicates charging status, battery shows 1% of loading tatus information, but none does change - no loading any time. When disconnected everything just stops off like normal desktop.

  I've already put battery in and out, made upgrades to the antivir software, makes Toshiba controls, tests, but what ever he did did not any change. If there is no way for restoration of battery how to check what the problem is I have no second battery or AC I can always buy new batttery but I don't know if the old one is broken and weather new would work properly?

  Best regards

  Hi pawelg,

  I agree with the user above. The battery can be charged only up to 500 times, and after that, it must be replaced. I think it's the case now, I mean that everything works correctly on the AC adapter so I think that the battery must be the reason for this.

  By the way: you can buy a new battery to an authorized service provider. ;)

• Satellite A40 will not start or start the BIOS

  Hello

  I have a portable Satellite A40 2 days ago decided to turns off while I was on the internet, and now it does not restart. I tried removing the battery and leave overnight, but it still will not start. When give you it power outlet, the AC LED is green and if you press the button power turns on the green power light, but that's all, the HARD drive light does not illuminate, the fan does not come on, no sound from the HARD drive and nothing on the screen, not even the backlight. You can also feel the heatsink gets hot (without excess however)

  If you insert a CD, you can here read the disc, and find things out there, too, now the power button still cut off the laptop.

  If anyone has any advice on what may be the cause, or any way I can get the machine to reboot again, that would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  Have you tried to connect the laptop to the external monitor to check if pictures or anything else appears on the second monitor?

  Your description sounds like the malfunctioning of the internal display, but it is only a suggestion and a few trials are required to obtain a diagnosis right.

• Satellite A500 will not start

  I have an A500 on 12 months old that will not start.

  The battery light shows white and power on AC light is on as well.
  When button "power on" is pressed and released the laptop IT flashes briefly then the battery lights up orange briefly and the light goes out.

  Battery has been divested of the case and it was completely discharged and it still will not with or without the battery. He has been connected to a different power of toshiba with the same results.

  The difficulty feeding saw two days ago. After that about 10 minutes to load then turned on.

  I saw a post where the guy was acquitted of the internal cmos memory and he ends up - which would have something to do with it?

  Any clues anyone?

  Hello

  I think that it s something wrong with the motherboard or a part of the motherboard.
  The point is this laptop should turns on even if the battery is empty and the power adapter is plugged so maybe it s something wrong with the memory supply or electronic power on the motherboard.

  I recommend you check the parts of memory first. Remove a module and try to start the device using that one module.

  Of course this can not help you too... so in this case, it could be a severe motherboard issue...

• Re: Satellite U300 will not start

  The machine has failed at a conference while using only the word and not on any network.

  Now the machine will not start orrepair and even the recovery disk will not work. He gets to the part where he asked for the language and then freezes on the next screen. I ran a disc hard diagnosis progam which reports no errors but I don't know enough about such things.

  The drive light flashed hard and I can hear the work of the reader, but nothing happens.

  Help, please

  Hello!

  It's strange, but in your case I would try to format the HARD drive before using the recovery disk.
  There, you can use the Microsoft Windows XP disk or another tool that allows you to format the HARD drive.

  If you have formatted the drive HARD try again with the Toshiba recovery disc.

  Good bye

• Satellite A100: Does not start a recovery DVDs

  Hi guys.
  First timer here.
  I have read some of the Q & A on reboot problems the A100 since the recovery DVDs.
  It seems I have the same problems as keith.

  I want to start all over again the OS and my laptop does not start from the DVD.
  Tried the standard f12 boot from cd option. tried her "hold C on the boot option.
  Both options end with no joy.

  The screen that says "loading ramdisk image", loads the machine breaks, asks me to wait, then every time the same thing.
  The screen goes black, flashes very quickly and white and then loads from the hard disk as normal.

  Now try to hold my frustration and do something radical.
  I know that in the Q & A previous, the subject is considered as replied...
  other options?

  My following thoughts are to delete/uninstall almost every thing and try and force the thing to boot from the DVD.
  have also copied the dvd and tried to boot from the copy, always with no joy.

  Are there any other suggestions?

  Is it possible to put a partition in the existing drive and start the recovery dvd in there, then delete the junk of the original section of the drive, and then delete the partition?

  is it possible to close all essential processes and format the HARD drive?

  is it possible to reset the HARD drive somehow?

  see you soon,
  Martin

  Hello Martin

  To be honest, it's pretty strange question. There is one thing I am interesting for:
  Is - this first time, you try to use a recovery media for the installation of the OS?

  If possible, try to get the Microsoft CD/DVD facilities to see if the same thing will happen.

  In any case, I will try to give you answers to your questions.
  > Is it possible to put a partition in the existing drive and to start the recovery dvd in there, then delete the junk of the original section of the drive, and then delete the partition?
  It will not work. On the recovery of the media it is recovery image and this image must be installed correctly. You cannot "recover DVD in there. Not question

  > is it possible to close all essential processes and format the HARD drive?
  I would like to know what you understand under the 'essential processes?

  > Is it possible to reset the HARD drive somehow?
  You can't do this somehow. If you want to 'reset' HARD drive, you must delete the existing partition or delete any OS installation. After having done that, you need to install new OS. All this will be done at the beginning of the recovery procedure.

  I really don't understand what's wrong there. Please answer to my first question, and we will continue this discussion. ;)

• Satellite A100 will not play DVD

  Since when you noticed this problem?

  Have you tested the feature with different actors and different DVD movies?

  Please provide more information that may help to a better understanding.

• Satellite L300D will not start

  Hello

  I have a satellite L300D 11v. Power I have three lights green, power, suite and battery, DVD looking for some time nothing happens.

  Tried many things.
  Interchangeability and remove the ram with restarts
  Removing and replacing HD
  Remove the battery, hold the power button for a minute then power application and try to turn on,.
  As above with the battery.
  None of the above has worked, I suspect either of the BIOS chip lost his memory or it is fried.
  I will try to reinstall the BIOS memory, but without the work of the OS I'm not sure how do.
  And I'm not sure that the update of the BIOS I downloaded from Toshiba is correct because of the manual I downloaded was the L350, and yes I have enter the correct details to try three times. Neither seem to be able to know which is the BIOS. I would be grateful if someone could suggest what's wrong with the laptop or the update of the BIOS with the laptop in its current state. And if anyone knows what variant of the BIOS, is that I would also be grateful for this information.

  P.S. I noticed that the same problem was raised on August 12, 2012 with no resolution found.

  On this virtual path t is not easy to offer accurate diagnosis and to say with certainty what the problem is here, but somehow, I think that your BIOS chip is damaged. BIOS update will not help you with that.
  When you start your laptop is stays on or turns off after a certain period of time?

• Satellite A65 will not start and I get only the blue screen!

  When I start my satellite A65 a blue screen comes up saying "a problem has been detected and windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
  It says to check if I have enough disk space or to disable or update the driver, if a pilot has been mentioned in the stop message... or to check the updates to the bios...
  I can type everything that said if I need, but the jist

  The world is - that sound familiar at all?
  It may be because I was not updated enough when he told me to.
  It does not start, not even on safe mode, and it won't let me not restore, which I would be perfectly willing to do at this point.

  help, please
  Joly

  Hello

  The blue screen of death usually occurs because of the serious software problem or due to malfunction of the equipment.
  In your case, it looks more like something wrong with the hardware. Why, because you're not able to restore the laptop from the recovery CD Toshiba delivered!

  Need buddy? I think that the laptop should be verified.
  Try to contact an ASP in your country and ask for later handling.

  Good luck

• Satellite L300 - will not start after the installation of Skype

  My Toshiba Satellite L300 won't start after installing Skype.
  This happened to someone else, and can I do?

  Thank you.

  I think Skype is probably the most used messenger and ideal application for communication.
  It is professionally designed and programmed. As you know in recent years, it has been offered in many different versions and it is always better and better.

  So I think that Skype itself is probably not the problem. I know that a lot of people also use Skype and I've never heard problem described.

  Anyway, what you can try is to remove Skype and try to install it again. Try also push the BONES at that earlier time. Maybe some Microsoft updates are responsible for the stability of the software.
  It's really not easy to say what the problem is here.

• Satellite A100 does not start - no action

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A100, which does nothing. He went flat when he was asleep, and a few minutes later I plugged it and when I press the power button / nothing happens. I do not show that the battery recharges in illuminating the charging light. The power button does not illuminate.

  If I hold the power button for a long period of time, a few lights.
  The caps lock light. Light under F10 and F11 and wireless internet light keeps coming back even if it is disabled.
  Battery light comes on a few times, but it is wider than on.

  My thoughts are that power don't is not computer (I think than lights that come on are those who come usually on after you press the power button) I'll try and the hand to get on another charger to try but snacks that don't work there at - it suggestions?

  DESPERATE isn't my computer!

  Hmm can be a motherboard problem.

  Try reinstalling the memory and battery and see how it goes. If not, send it to an ASP for a quote.

• Satellite A660 will not start again until I turn safe mode

  Just buy the toshiba Satellite A660: I tell the story to compensate closely in my answer, I hope...

  I just buy new, run the Setup for first use. When its up and running only in that day, that I noticed it start to hang up when I plugged the drive external hard for some Installer (adobe lightroom).

  Its still very well, but when I disable it, it does not start again until I have run in safe mode so I can save some files and rerun recovery.

  This time on 64-bit. With its completion of its process, this works well for a few hours.
  He fell faster now, maybe because its on 64-bit? (any recommendation if its 32 or 64 bit) specifications: i5, 4ram, 1 g ddcatd graphics, family win7 premium,...

  Now when I turn it off it never early return time windows say... Startup Repair. ..
  I have let it run from this morning till now they can't always find what's the problem (I'm refernce the loptop).

  So no idea about whats goin?

  > He fell faster now, maybe because its on 64-bit? (any recommendation if its 32 or 64 bit) specifications: i5, 4ram, 1 g ddcatd graphics, family win7 premium,...

  64-bit operating system is better if your computer supports 4 GB or more of RAM.
  Why? Because 32-bit Win recognizes max 3.2 GB, even if more RAM is available.
  It's limitation of 32-bit; regardless of what OS it is; Linux, Win XP, Vista, Win7, etc.
  This is the reason why the 64 bit OS are so popular in the last time

  With regard to the issue of the BONE;
  I recommend that you run a disk recovery again... This means that you need to reinstall the OS usign the option recovery Toshiba;
  During the turning on the laptop press F8, choose fix my computer-> drive HARD recovery

• Satellite U500 will not start

  Hello

  I have a problem with my Toshiba U500 after I installed additional 2GBs of ram that the laptop does not start.
  He died immediately after, after I press the turn on button.

  The leds blink normally.
  I already tried to remove the new RAM and tested new and old memorys in different locations.

  I also tried to reset the bios by removing the cmos battery, but it seems that you cannot be disconnected.

  Any help would be appreciated.
  Sorry for my bad English and thanks in advance.

  Hi mate

  Notepad starts correctly using the old modules shipped with the laptop?

  In my opinion, you bought RAM that is not fully compatible with the laptop or BIOS.
  In this case, you should test the device with other modules of RAM of the manufacture of some users here in the forum reported problems with the essential modules I use Kingston modules and my notebook starts fine

• Re: Satellite A300 will not start

  Hello!

  I have a Toshiba A300 for a few years. I've updated with a new RAM module last week. I tested it with 86 memtetst and everything was fine, but this week he has started acting strangely.

  The laptop starts fine, just turn the ODD disc (the orange led flashes), however the ODD is the last boot device in the bios.

  This problem has a connection with the new ram, or is it only the fault of sides?

  Hello

  What do you mean by it does not start correctly?
  You can start the Windows system?
  Do you see the Toshiba start screen at the beginning.

  How about you, removing the new RAM and trying to boot the device with the old module?

• Satellite A100-570 not start - error PXE

  Hi all

  Please, please help!

  A year ago, my laptop started showing me the following details:

  PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of
  PXE - M0F: Exit PXE ROM
  Operating system not found.

  I couldn't find a recovery disk so left and used my desktop at home.

  Today all around the rooting, I came across the disc and made a successful recovery. However, due the siezing iTunes upward, I had to reboot my PC through the same question. I tried to restart the laptop several times to nothing does not.

  I need this laptop as a large part of the content of a book I'm writing on this subject.

  HEEEELLLLPPPPPP!

  Hello

  This error is displayed because the laptop could not start from other sources such as LAN.
  PXE means that laptop is trying to boot from LAN and Media test failure, check cable means that OS could not be started from source LAN.
  Maybe your HARD drive is bad and you need to replace it.
