Satellite A110-178 switches stop may be due to overheating?

My Satellite A110-178, only 1 year and 3 months old, died suddenly, without any warning every day, even several times a day, sometimes even 3 times in 10 minutes. I was told it might be an overheating problem. I installed speedfan and I have about 75-80 gr. in Core 2 processors... Which is the upper limit?

All solutions?

Thank you very much!

Hello, Carmen

Unfortunately there is no magic solution, but overheating may be the reason why your laptop turns off suddenly and without warning.

A year and three months is enough time for laptop full of dust. As a first step, I recommend professional cleaning. Believe me after that this laptop will be able to 'breathe' and will work much more quiet and well sure without going out.

  • Satellite A110-178: Audio output does not pass the low frequenties

    Hello world

    I just bought a satellite A110-178. However, the audio output of the socket minijack isn't what it should be. Frequencies of less than 200 Hz seem to be switched off. Perhaps the sound card the filter to protect the tiny Laptop speakers, but this is not normal.
    I checked all settings of windows, virtual sound is set to off, and I have reinstalled audio drivers realtek, but still no bass.

    Can someone help me please...

    Hi guys

    Have you heard something called Virtual Sound Toshiba tools?
    I think that it s preinstalled on the A110. On my laptop, this request has been pre-installed, and there are different options that might help clear this issue.

    I put t know exactly what that problem because nobody has described the problem detailed, but you should check the options in open detail settings.
    There, click on the Option button and you will get the new window with the option enable called the audio filter when the audio sample rate is less than 44 kHz

    This you should all play a bit with this good luck tool

  • Satellite A110-178 - updated from XP to Windows 7

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A110-178 and I would improve my OS from Windows XP to Windows 7.
    I've never installed new drivers or a new BIOS on my laptop, so I guess that many of them are outdated.

    What's the smartest thing?
    Update drivers and/or BIOS before upgrading to Windows 7? Or install Windows 7 and install the necessary drivers later?

    In the event that the BIOS should be updated: as there is no BIOS update available for Windows 7, what version of BIOS is the right one to pick?

    Thanks for the info!

    Kind regards
    Oliver

    Hi Oliver,.

    First of all an upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7 isn't possible of t. This means you need to do a new clean install and after that, you can install all drivers.

    An upgrade to Windows 7 is possible in Vista but not XP.

    The update of the BIOS is normally not necessary. This update should be carried out only if it of really necessary.

  • Satellite A110-178 - burn audio CDs including CD-text

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A110-178. I would like to create an audio CD (.wav files) including cd-text (Yes, data such as artist, album, etc.).

    I tried to add cd-text using several different programs (Nero, to Acoustica CD burner, etc), but when I burn the CD, cd-text is not available.

    Now, I have learned that your cd burner must also be able to burn cd-text. apparently, not all cd burners have this ability.
    Do you know if the cd in my Toshiba burner is capable of burning these data?

    Thanks & best regards,
    Oliver

    Hello

    As far as I know it of not possible to include the CD-text on Audio CD. That s me don't know.
    On MP3 discs - it possible to s, s no problem.

    In any case, to check this function you mean, it is important to know the exact model of the DVD/CD player. You can check in the Device Manager. Then you can ask Google for detailed specifications. :)

    Now, I have some difficulties to connect the laptop on my widescreen LCD.

    I've been searching the Internet for several days now, but nobody seems to have an answer.

    Someone here who got the solution so I can connect my laptop on the LCD screen and enjoy it on the widescreen resolution?

    In addition, according to Toshiba, the compatible 128 MB graphics card, but according to above card is max 64 Mb. anyone in this case?

    Waiting in agony! :)

    Thanks a lot in advance!
    Ciao, Milan

    The mackintosh is on the right track, the installed graphics driver doesn't support the screen resolution of 1280 * 768.
    It seems you laptop has an Intel graphics card. Am I wrong?
    Well, quite simply, visit Intel page and check the drivers available.

  • Satellite A110 PSABOE: after 9 months of use of overheating

    I have an A110 PSABOE who was very quiet during the first 9 months of use. It is now extremely noisy due to the fans, but also extremely hot.
    The problem is getting worse and my laptop cuts now after an hour or two due to overheating. Everyone knows this?

    Does anyone have a suggestion as to what might help?
    Thank you very much.

    Hi Lindsey

    Maybe someone could be scared to see this issue for the first time, but to be honest it s not unusual after 9 months of use of the laptop.

    Fans may not turn with a maximum yield due to dust and debris inside the laptop.
    Usually the cooling modules will have to be cleaned from time to time to avoid these overheating problems.

    So now you ask how to clean the fans? ;)
    Well, you could buy and professional tool like a jet of compressed air and may attempt to blow through the fans.
    Generally, it should help.
    If this isn't the case, I recommend strongly to contact and laptop technician who could help you clean the cooling professionally modules.

    Bye and good luck

  • Satellite A110-351 - fan stopped working

    Hi, this is Michael from the Hungary,

    There is 1.5 years, I bought an A110-351, last year I had these problems:
    1.:when, I turn on my A110, he asks for a bios password. So I contacted my local toshiba authorized service center to solve this problem.
    They said that is not covered by the warranty.
    So I came and they charged me about 120 USD to remove this password BIOS-thing.
    And now when I was looking for new drivers, I noticed my problem in this bulletin (Document ID: 98082361):

    ".. The appearance of this problem on any particular computer is unpredictable - it may never happen, but it can happen any time the computer is turned on. If this problem occurs, it will be necessary to send the computer to Toshiba authorized service provider, which will fix the problem free of charge for you. »

    2: after that, I was happy that I can work with my Toshiba, then an another problem cams:
    The fan noise was weird, and after a few days, it is almost stopped working (no significant air ventilation).
    So I contacted the service center again, and the others were still mentioned above... charged me again.

    Guaranteed, Yes... I have the warranty until 2009-05-09. But I don't think that means anything. So I don't think that I would recommend to anyone I know in the future.

    Any response? I made a few mistakes, or what is normal?

    Hello

    You're talking about this document:
    _New BIOS corrects market password incorrect prompt_
    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/bulletin.jsp?soID=1863789

    First of all it is a Toshiba page we and your model of laptop is not referenced, so it's really hard to say if your laptop could be affected...

    In addition, the doc also says this:
    + If this problem occurs, it will be necessary to send the computer to Toshiba authorized service provider, which will fix the problem free of charge for you. +

    So you have to pay for it I recommend contact the ASP in your country and clarify this issue.

    In addition if you warranty is still valid, then the question module cooling must be set free warranty covers replacement of defective parts

  • Won't boot satellite A110-178

    My Satellite laptop suddenly does not start after I recharged it.
    When I turn it on, the power light blue button as he always does. But then, nothing more. Fans CPU turns for a few seconds and stops. Nothing appears on the screen, no logo Toshiba or anything like that. The DVD player does not open even. It only turns off if you press the power button for 5 seconds.

    What this may be? Do laptops keep silent when the MESSAGE fails or they beep like personal computers 'normal' and is - it a different problem?

    Any help would be good. I tried to plug a second monitor, but it does nothing. Play with the battery and the power adapter (connection, disconnection) did nothing, so I think that's not the problem.

    Sorry James but I think there must be a serious hardware problem. If you are not able to see the BIOS settings or the Toshiba start screen I think it's time to contact the Service partner in your country.

    Please don't be crazy on me, but in your situation, you can't do anything that can help make your work laptop again.
