Satellite A200 - 1 2 battery alone costs at Windows shutdown?

Hi all

I have a problem with my battery.

1. the computer is off
2. the battery is LOW
3. I plug in the power cable and the light is Orange and the battery recharges.
I know that the battery is being charged because when I turn on the computer after a while ago for example 44% charged.
4. when I look now at the State of the battery there is a "44% available, battery plugged in, does not support.
5. at the moment battery does not charge and power drops 40%... 35%... 32%...ex...
6. when I turn now to the computer, the led is orange back and the battery again.

7. one last thing: when the battery is charged with the computer off to 100% and then I turn on the computer
the battery remains at 100% because the computer is running on the power cable.

My conclusion is that the battery charges only when the computer is turned off?
those of the battery is 100% the computer works on the power cable.
If the battery is not 100% and I turn on the computer, the computer does not work on the power cable (power cord is plugged) and the power of the battery decreases again.
What I can do about it.

Help

Hi mate,

First of all, I must you accept this battery charge should also work if the laptop is turned on. I mean on my notebooks, it still works properly and I have this based only on the Toshiba site: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/FAQ35007K001ZR01.htm

But to be honest, I think that there is a hardware problem with your laptop because there is no software option that must turn to charge the battery in Windows.
Another question: If you go into the BIOS, the battery will be charged?

If this isn't the case, I would contact the nearest authorized service provider for help. They should check your laptop and maybe it's a problem of motherboard or something else. On the Toshiba site, you can search the nearest ASP:
http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > find an authorized service provider

If you have any other questions, please let us know and give us a feedback if the problem is resolved. It's always interesting to read that and I think that for other users. ;)

  • Satellite A200 - loses the battery, switch off the power

    I have a relatively old Satellite A200, yet almost all inside is new except the battery. The battery has a very short life, but that's because its old. Recently the computer started to suddenly lose the battery, so the charge light stays on, the battery light turns off and the battery icon said "plugged in, not charging." However, the computer still work on battery power. If I see it at the time, then by removing and replacing the charger repeatedly, I can start it load again, but if I am not it switches off without warning. Since the battery life is now less than a minute which often.

    I don't think that the problem is with the charger because it always shows the charger is plugged in, and when the computer is off the battery light is always on when it is plugged. I had a problem with the power connector, but if the motherboard was recently replaced so I don't think that's it either.

    If someone could help it would save me a lot of frustration, thank you.

    Hello

    At first, I must say that you should not be frustrated. Problems with consumer products are normal, and each of us has problems with laptops, televisions or other electronic product.

    Let's see what you can do about it.
    Your description is OK, but what I want to know is follow:
    When you remove the battery can work on your laptop with no problems (start work, cut)?

    I also think that the battery is too old and I presume it's troublemaker in the history. It is not easy to explain what behavior flashing if you have a defective hardware or old coin inside.

    Maybe, you need to buy the replacement of the battery and check the features for laptop and the battery, just to see if everything will be OK again. If you will be faced with the same problem again then we can discuss what may be the problem.
    In my opinion only a reason for this could be electronic power supply.

  • Satellite A200 use external battery

    Hi all.

    I have the Satellite A200-PSAE6E, and I bought a universal external battery. But external battery cannot produce enough current to my laptop when the internal battery is not full. When internal battery is fully charged, external keeps it full and portable computer running, but when the internal battery is not complete and I plug the external battery in seconds laptop shows that it is plugged in, charging the battery, but after a few seconds, it shows only that the laptop is plugged, and battery charge.

    Problem is that when the laptop is plugged in and the battery won't charge it uses an internal battery (as when it is not plugged in), and it drain the internal battery it turn off and there was still shows that it is connected. Can I define that when the laptop is plugged in, but does not charge to use external power?
    I'm sure it's only the software solution.

    You ad is really confusing

    I have a question; Is the external battery designed for this model of laptop and Toshiba recommends use this external battery in your laptop?

    Back to your question, in fact, it looks like a malfunction of the accumulator and in my opinion, you should test another battery, but before you would get in touch with Toshiba ASP, you must check if your BIOS is updated the BIOS should be updated later say I don't very well if this will change anything but it s worth a try m

  • Satellite A200 27Z - how to unlock KeNotify on Windows Vista?

    Hello world

    Well, this subject pretty much says it all. I do a cleaning - on my Satellite A200 27Z - and I have my Windows Vista continues of blocking KeNotify.exe at startup.

    Answers on Google etc are contradictory - "definitely!" - "no, don't touch it!" - so what's the answer with this one? Continue to block it? I think so; as she as reads keystrokes; that seems a little unfair, because he never told me he was doing it)

    What think you of all?

    Thank you

    B

    Hello

    The KeNotify should t be blocked because it belongs to Toshiba Flash Cards you need for the FN keys so please unlock this application.

    If the Windows Firewall blocks, you can unlock it in the settings:
    Control Panel > Windows Firewall > settings >

    I hope I could help a bit.

  • Satellite A200 - 23K - card SDHC not recognized on Windows 7

    Hello, I have a toshiba satellite A200 - 23K.
    I just installed Windows 7, all drivers support drivers toshiba and all the updates of microsoft windows, including the suport of 32 GB SD flash cards memory.
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com

    But in the Device Manager there is a witch of the element named "mass storage controller" has not been installed (which would be the SD card reader), but I didn't know any driver for "Texas Instruments PCIxx12 Integrated FlashMedia Controller" and installed the VISTA driver instead. Now, the look of the device is fine in Device Manager, but he only read a normal SD card, and when I insert a SDHC 4GB it came to nothing. In windows XP / vista and linux (fedora / ubuntu) there is no problem with SDHC (4GB and 8 GB Kingmax SDHC class 6).

    I would very much apreciate in advance if someone will make a driver for the card reader (I use it pretty mutch for photos).

    Hey Buddy,

    I think the problem is the Vista driver expired that doesn t work 100% correctly on Windows 7

    As much as I know Satellite A300, which supports Windows 7, is also equipped with Texas Instruments card reader, or at least the pilot is also from the same company with respect to the Satellite A200.

    In your case, I would try this driver, I hope it works! :)

  • Satellite A200 - scrolling features does not work in Windows XP Home edition

    Hello

    I bought my Satellite A200 (psae3e) with Vista 3 months ago. I sent my computer to a laboratory and asked them to install XP. Well, everything seems to work outside scrolling on the touchpad.

    I tried everything to reinstall the sinaptics driver and the Alps to dig in any configuration. I could find associated with the mouse in the control panel. Also tried the FN + f12 key (supposed to turn the roll on and outside) without success.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you
    Lee.

    I can just say that I installed several times friends WXP A200-1CR and everything was OK. I'm really surprised that you had this problem. In any case, it is important that the problem is resolved and you can use the scroll function. ;)

  • Satellite A200 - X 01 - battery error on Windows 7

    Hello, I wake my computer from sleep mode and found a popup stating that I had a battery error.

    I was wondering if this is a common thing or if it is a mistake to Windows 7?

    Hi DocWinters,

    What happens if you reboot the laptop? The error persists there?

    I doubt s a problem running. In my opinion, it sounds like that, the battery must be replaced because its consumables and can only be charge/recharged 500 times I think.

    You can get a new battery to an authorized service provider! :)

  • Problem of Satellite A200 - 28 p/battery charger

    Hello

    I had a power problem with my battery charger for a while sometimes it would charge when plugged in and others would not, so if I removed the charger to move the laptop it was a bet of 50 / 50 as to whether it would be instantly turn off or not.

    This was not too much a problem as the laptop is not moved too often, but I recently returned home to find my charger did not work at all and the cell phone was off.

    I managed to get hold of a replacement charger just to test it and I found that when it is plugged, flashing blue light which is usually strong watch the charger is plugged, and the times he has stayed solid and allowed me to boot up the laptop lasted almost a minute at best before shutting down completely not even enough time to get transfer important documents I have there.

    Is buying a new battery is going to fix this, or is the problem more likely to be something inside the laptop to be replaced?

    Hello

    I doubt that buy a new battery would solve your problem.
    Why?
    Because the laptop should also work correctly using only the AC adapter.
    So even if the battery is defective or dead, it should be possible to use the laptop connected to the network.

    The laptop has a number of other power resources, including a smart power battery clock real time and these resources are closely linked and one could affect apparent power problems.

    If the DC IN is blue, this means that the AC adapter is connected properly and the power supply correctly. If this is not the case, the adapter may be faulty or there is a problem with the electronic power supply on the motherboard.

    So in this case, the power adapter must be tested if you are sure that the adapter is working properly, then there must be a problem with the motherboard to 100%.

  • Satellite A200 - 1 M 4: can I get Windows Vista separately?

    Hello

    When I install the product recovery CD, it installs Windows Vista and many programs that I don't need.
    I just want to install Windows Vista (even excluding pilots).
    So, can I get the installer of Windows Vista (Home Premium) separately?

    Thank you

    Hello

    There are no separately installation program. You are not alone with this opinion and no you don't have to use any installed stuff. I remove also all the stuff, I didn't need.

    Install the OS by using the recovery CD and then download all the updates from Microsoft to ensure that everything is up to date and remove all the stuff that you don't need. Believe me I do the same.

    Just for example - I have a satellite that comes with Windows XP Home edition and I did follow:
    1. installed OS using supplied recovery DVDs
    2 installed all updates from Microsoft
    3 deleted applications, I didn't need
    4. install all the applications I need for work (office, Nero and so on)
    5 installed Norton Ghost
    6 created my own recovery image

    Now I can reinstall my OS and after 30 minutes, everything is there. In the case of some virus or any other strange question, I install new OS (on the C partition). All the data saved on the D partition are still there and can be used after installation of the image.
