Satellite A200 - 1KO failure at startup

I have a Satellite A200 - 1 k (several years). Suddenly, from one day to the other, it refuses to power upward. There are 5 blue lights to low forehead, which shows power light, on early light shows on, lightweight battery, the next lightight showson flickers and then dies, and the last for the internet access, of course, does not illuminate. In addition, on the right side of the machine, there are a yellow/orange light port DVD projection on, when I press the Start button, but the port will not open, so I don't know if there is a disc inside.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance.

And what now?
I put t understand what kind of help do you expect now.

You don't see anything on the screen after turning on the laptop or not?
If you want to see if there are drive inside you can manually open optical drive. Normally, there is a small hole under the disc tray. You can insert a paper clip or something similar into this hole and manually open the drive tray.

  • Re: Satellite A200 - sound beep after startup

    Hello world

    Recently my laptop has started to be malfuntioning.
    Yesterday, after the start (or when you take it out of fashion 'sleep'), it started beeping.

    Beep, it's 10 minutes in a row, fast.

    I run a stock standard Satellite A200 Windows Vista Help.
    I don't know what to do, and over the ringtone (which lasts about 10-15 minutes) I can't do anything - the CPU (I think) simply cannot handle all of the processes. The ringtone comes from the right side of the laptop and is fake, but certainly a sign of a problem.

    I believe it has something to do with the motherboard, but I don't know how to diagnose this problem, and after hours of research I have not found someone with a similar problem to mine.

    I'm sorry if I posted this in the wrong forum, also the advice to confused and I just can't find a support technique one.

    Help, please

    Hello

    If I understand your problem, it seems that you are not able to enter the BIOS and you are not able to boot the operating system Window.
    You don't see that the home screen Toshiba so is good?

    Hmm, it seems that this sound signal is related to a hardware malfunction
    Then maybe the POST (power on self-test) cannot be spent properly and so you get this alert beep

    What to say; in most cases it mother s associated with, but it is difficult to say which could be exactly wrong

    Maybe you can try this;
    Remove the battery and unplug the power adapter for a few hours
    Wait and after a while connect the two parts again
    Then try again to turn the unit

    If this does not work, then I would recommend asking a technician help in ASP.

  • Satellite A200-1O5 - beep at startup

    Hello

    My satellite makes sometimes a few loud beeps when starting the Bios for about half a minute.
    After that, it starts to boot the OS (Vista) without any problem.
    But something must be wrong (because of the beeps).

    What could this be?

    Thank you very much.

  • Problem with the Satellite A200 and Windows Vista startup

    Yesterday, my laptop had some mistakes and tried to stop.
    He remained on the screen closed for quite a long time, so I decided to push the power button until it turns off.

    When I went to turn it back to the a started going through the normal screens, the Toshiba screen and then the white screen with the Microsoft flag down. At this point, the screen goes completely black and rest that way.

    Through starting initial power cord, light is turned on, the power supply is on the HARD drive light and then when the screen turns white HARD drive light turns off and stays off.

    I tried to do a system repair using the F8 key at startup and it goes into the Advanced Boot Options menu when I select 'Repair your computer', the light of the HARD drive temporarily, I go through the screens and select System Restore, I selected a date a few weeks and then click Next on the screen indicating the (c :)) system disk is ready to be restored then it returns an error -" (c) drive has errors. Windows has detected corruption in the file (c) system.

    You should check the drive for errors before you can restore it "- and at this point, I can only click on the 'check' the drive to find errors, and then click Start, as he chose the option 'Automatically fix file system errors'."

    When I click Start nothing seems to happen just on the same screen, the HARD drive light does not come on at all and there is no internal HARD drive noise. The only way I can get out of this screen is to turn the computer off again.

    If someone is able to help I would really appreciate it!

    Thank you!

  • Satellite A200 freezes / restarts randomly on startup

    Hello

    I have Toshiba Satellite A200, Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 6.0.6002.
    Intel (r) Core (TM) 2 Duo CPU T5450 at 1.66 GHz
    Video ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2400 version = 8.380.0.0
    Audio version of Realtek High Definition Audio = 6.0.1.5406
    Network Marvell Yukon 88E8055 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller version = 10.0.4.3
    Intel (r) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection version = 11.5.0.32

    For the two weeks... my laptop randomly freezes / restarts... especially when it is started for the first time in the day OR after being in standby / hibernation of State for a few hours.
    Sometimes it gets stuck before we get to the login screen... sometimes shortly after... no certain activity seems to be related to this gel. And it's not freezing all the time... sometimes it restarts too. No blue screen.

    No new software installed, except regular updates of windows. No conflict in the device driver. I checked the website of toshiba for the latest drivers. BIOS had a newer version... So I installed which (2.5). But the problem has not disappeared.

    When the computer reboots, it works fine... I'm not able to find something to worry about in the event viewer. Start logging also came not to the top with a few errors. I also disabled the option restart automatically.

    Windows partition was low on space... only 6 GB left of allotted 40 GB... so I thought to backup and install from scratch... do that... all the updates that are installed during the next days... but my laptop is back to the same State. One thing I notice, is that now it takes longer after starting (and then restart) to connect to the wireless router. But this isn't a problem.

    Microsoft Fix It didn't help either... am looking for help to identify the cause and resolve it.

    Is there a conflict somewhere which surfaces while system is booting high / shortly after startup?

    Thank you in advance.

    > How we can say is that there is nothing wrong with the equipment? What else can a check?
    The new installation of the operating system has not helped. Right?
    So for me it looks like hardware related issue.
    I think the disk HARD or RAM (memory)

    The HARD drive can be easily verified. Download the drive diagnostic tool called HARD: Drive Fitness Test
    It s freeware tool and it allows you to scan the HARD drive and get details on possible malfunction.

    The diagnosis of RAM can be done easily. Of course, there are tools like memtest86 + and similar, but in my experience the results of the analysis are not always 100% right
    So, in that these cases it s always a good idea to test the laptop using new tested s RAM

  • Satellite A200 - 23Q - cfixer window at startup

    Hey guys!
    I hope someone can help me.

    Whenever I turn on my laptop (I have the Satellite A200 - 23Q) when my desktop appears at one point it breaks and I get the "cfixer" window pops up saying that it cannot find the cfixer file, and there is also a date when the file is deleted (it's always today's date, the date when I have my computer on). On the bottom, I have to cancel, try again or restore. When this happened for the first time, I clicked on restore, but it happened again the next time I was starting so I guess it's a virus so since then, I always click Cancel. But it happens for 3 or 4 months now and it annoys me reallly. When I get rid of this window continues startup, load the bar side, bluetooth and other programs.

    Help, please! Is it possible to settle this issue without having to reinstall the operating system?

    Thank you in advance!

    Hello!

    If you reinstall ConfigFree utility that you can t do something wrong, but this .exe file at startup belongs to this tool and so you should try to reinstall.

    Try it and post your result. Relocation of this tool only takes a few minutes and should solve your problem. :)

  • Satellite A200 - battery and a fan failure

    My Satellite A200 is a little more than a year and has not stopped the charge battery.

    While watching over portable saw fan does not no more, although no effect on performance when it is connected to the House.

    Two probs are fan cannot be hardware failure?

    And is it connected to the failure of batt?

    For me, it is not easy to say that the two issues are related somehow. You can check the functionality of fan if the laptop works on AC power only. Remove the battery and check it out.

    Also try changing the profile of power and method to see if it has any influence on the cooling fan feature.
    What about the battery? If the battery has stopped loading it may be due to the battery itself or perhaps electronic power supply on the motherboard, but if you want to have an exact answer to this the laptop must be controlled by authorized service provider?

    The warranty is still valid?

  • Satellite A200 PSAE3E - no loading and opening at startup Flash cards

    I have a Satellite A200 PSAE3E and noticed recently that Flash cards do not appear now when I move my mouse to the top of the screen pointer.
    I checked that the program is set to start when the laptop is turned on and I looked at the settings for the program and everything seems OK.

    However I can't get them to appear if I double click on the file and start it manually.
    As a temporary solution, I put a shortcut on my desktop to start it.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello

    Start the * msconfig and check if the Toshiba Flash Cards are verified and activated in the Startup tab.
    In addition, you should check if the service that controls the flashcards has been activated.

  • Satellite A200-1vp with Vista - code 39 of the CD/DVD drive failure

    Hello

    I was burning and watch DVDs on my Satellite A200 - 1 VP, with vista, since February, the last time I burned anything was a couple of weeks.

    Suddenly, there is a problem, no response when I insert a disc and my divx player says me no recorder found.

    When I am looking in the Device Manager I get the message 'windows cannot load the driver for this hardware' (code 39) "driver is damaged or missing.

    I tried to uninstall it and using the limit filter upper/lower of Toshiba, repair tool but on restart it still cannot install.

    Should I try the Toshiba Recovery Disc and lose a lot of that programs/files, as a last resort?
    Would this work?
    Anyone have any ideas?

    Here's an interesting article from Microsoft Knowledge:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/270008/en-us

    You must first access the Device Manager and should remove the reader of CD/DVD from the list of devices.
    Then should access the registry and delete the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    Reboot the laptop and check if the CD/DVD drive would work again!

  • Satellite a200-1sv screen remains black at startup in Vista

    Hello

    We have a problem with Toshiba Satellite A200-1sv my girlfriend: when we started, most of the time, the screen remains black, while the computer starts: after awhile, we can hear the sound of windows (vista).

    In addition, if connect us another screen of the computer, it displays the scheduled start screen. In order to use the computer, it must launch a few times... The support guy where we bought the computer told us "the computer is not compatible with Vista, we cannot do something".

    Can we do something?

    Thanks in advance,
    Ju

    I have to smile to read this message
    Mainly, this statement is funny;
    > The support guys where we bought the computer told us "the computer is not compatible with Vista, we can't do something."

    I think that this laptop has been delivered with the Vista operating system. So why the guy said that the laptop is not compatible with Vista?  :| …. that's nonsense.

    First the A200-1SV belongs to the PSAE6E series and it s fully Vista capable.
    Secondly, like you say the external screen displays home Toshiba screen and so I guess that's just a matter of adjustment.
    What you can do is to use the FN + F5 key combination to switch between display devices.

    If it doesn't help to try to put the laptop back to the factory settings using the Toshiba Recovery CD!
    In this case, the new OS, driver and tools will be installed and then everything should work fine.

    Good bye
