Satellite A200 - I can't see battery time remaining single percentage

Hello

I had a Satellite A200 on Vista and XP, and I'm NOT able to see the remaining estimated battery time. I see only the percentage left.

For example, I use my laptop unplugged for over an hour (my comments) and I can only see the percentage left (45%), but I can't see the time remaining.

I have a problem with Vista or XP.

Is - this natural? What can I do to see the time remaining?

Thank you

Sorry, but I would like to know why you think that this is a problem. Where you found information that it must be demonstrated to remaining battery time?

    Thank you
    wait for your reply

    I m not an expert but I have 2 laptops.
    In two books, the battery while AC is plugged.
    I think the latest battery technology allows to use the battery and the power adapter at the same time and it affects doesn t the battery strong performance.

    But my 9 years into the first computer battery laptop doesn't work anymore. He died after about 2 years of use. Now, it lasts for about 1 min, then it s empty.
    But the battery is old and it is nothing unusual.

    Your battery is going to die also sooner or later, but in my s TI doesn't matter if the battery is inserted and that the AC adapter is plugged in or not.

  • Satellite A200 hangs or restarts at any time

    Hello

    I am facing problem with my Toshiba Satellite A200 since last week. The problem, I noticed even is mentioned below in steps:

    1. start & freezes on the screen at any time or logon
    2 restart at any time without any notification as blue screen or any message dumping

    Explanation in detail:

    As I start my laptop it can freeze or restart at any moment after the Startup logo. This has happened several times, I noticed. If it freezes, after waiting for half an hour, if it does not, restart any movement of the mouse, no appeal of taskmgr, etc. it completely freezes. Then I made him stop forcing for example, by pressing the power button / stop for a long time.

    * Things to note here: this happens when the power adapter is connected *.

    Same thing repeated here with AC not plugged (on battery), the system works absolutely perfect until that hard battery backup with permitted load on the processor and any diet Plan. Tested also on AC only (battery does not exist) but same results, no resolution.

    As soon as AC is plugged the laptop is ready to freeze or reboot anytime * and the time varies between instant to max 45 minutes I noticed several times.

    Second thing to note is that if I boot in SafeMode it works absolutely fine with & without plugged AC.

    * Measures taken to resolve: *.

    * High temperature set: *.
    I also cleaned the heatsink fan heat + metal bands filter in front of the FAN to avoid high temperatures, but same results, no resolution.

    * OS Installation costs: *.
    I installed a clean copy of the OS, but no effect not found, same results, no resolution

    * AC adapter power supply check & replacement: *.
    I checked the output of the AC adapter / CC it 19.7V DC no load. I borrowed a new AC adapter with my cousin with the same model, but the same results, no resolution.

    * AC adapter Socket change: *.
    To avoid the bad food, but the same results, no resolution.

    * BIOS: *.
    Settings to change the frequency of the dynamics processor to still weak & 2nd Core Disabled, same results, no resolution.

    After searching a solution on various sites, I tried several ways but without success.

    Finally worked for me is to start in "SafeMode-> Device Manager-> disabled both processors ' & restarted in normal mode, everything works fine.

    * Question: *.
    1 but what is the real fault I want to know who?
    2. How safe to operate with disabled processors?
    3. What is the effect of it on the laptop?
    4. it's the real solution?

    Please give me the real solution.

    Thank you
    Hemant

    Hi mate

    The sounds of history for me really weird I mean disabling processors in Device Manager
    Is this laptop must not freeze and must restart not anytime if that's the case then something must be wrong with the software or hardware.
    Because you installed the OS and the problem is still available, I guess something must be wrong with the material; Perhaps the mother or the CPU itself

    It is difficult to say what could be wrong, but it seems like material is affected

  • Satellite A200 is not charging the battery

    Hello everyone!

    I apologize for my English; It is not the main language.
    Somehow that I can take my Satellite A200 and Assembly are not correctly open the cable (don't know what the cable, apparently the power of the screen), it has been between the keyboard and the top panel, but I forgot and put it between the motherboard and the top panel and... when all assembled and understood that most of the burned... cables precisely burned coil... cord I immediately pulled out but the battery remained in it... in general not very well turned out ;)))

    As a result of what it led to: first is sometimes not visible when you move the keyboard and the touchpad... to eliminate the need to restart the car... then, in principle, sometimes a laptop is not included, i.e. of tanning power of the lamp and all... in this case to remove the worst... and finally, power cable the battery is more responsible... i.e. After all this, I discharge the battery and now the laptop only works on the power cable.

    Question: is the problem of battery or motherboard?

    Your English is hard to understand, but it seems that you disassembled the laptop and some cables connected in the wrong way.
    Then something is charred and now you have some problems with the battery, etc.

    I think that there is a hardware problem, who knows what you did in the past
    The fact is that you did something wrong... it is always a risk if someone without a technician experience disassemble the laptop.

    In your case, I recommend you contact someone who knows how to check the hardware specifications, you need professional help

  • Re: Satellite A200-1IZ - can I install RAM 800 MHz?

    I have a Satellite A200-1IZ and I want to change my orginal RAM memory 2 x 1 GB 667 MHz DDR2 2x2gb 800 MHz DDR2. It will work properly with 800 MHz?
    Here's something on the processor and RAM:

    Intel Centrino Duo processor with Intel Core 2 Duo T7250 processor technology, card WLAN Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN and Intel PM965 Express chipset
    Clock speed: 2.0 GHz
    FSB: 800 MHz
    level 2: 2 MB cache
    Standard system memory: 2 048 (1 024 + 1 024) MB
    maximum extension: 4 096 MB
    technology: DDR2 RAM (667 MHz)

    Hello!

    Theoretically, you can use the 800 MHz modules because they are compatible downgrade. This means that the RAM is also able to run at 667 MHz. as much as I know that the chipset supports only up to 667 MHz speed and you won't see a performance gain and you can also buy some RAM to 667 MHz.

    In any case, I have good experience with RAM Kingston. I use the modules of this factory always for the upgrade of my notebooks.
    Maybe this information is useful for you

  • Satellite A200 - AH6 PSAE0C: update BIOS - Date & Time Reset problem

    Then I updated my laptop Satellite A200 - AH6 PSAE0C (Bios and graphic update) after installation of Toshiba Power Saver, but from time to time now, if I do a restart, there is a black screen on reboot with some info about my BIOS and some things put in guard/failure.

    Also, when she comes back, once again, every so often, my time is reset to December 2004, 12: 00

    Any suggestions?

    Hmm... This strange s... maybe you should try to update the BIOS again. I'm not sure if this is possible if the BIOS has been already updated to the latest version but it worth a try.
    In addition, you should access the BIOS and it set to the default settings and need to save settings.

    See you soon

  • Satellite A200-1CR: can I install Vista using my Vista DVD installations?

    Hello

    I would like to get some answers to my questions...

    I have the satellite A200-1CR (PSAE0) and I want to install vista on my own... not with the recovery DVD but I have some serious questions...

    (1) may I have problems during the installation... (Drivers SATA, etc.), problems of BIOS or Toshiba has no restrictions?

    (2) what problem if I erase the secret (winre) partition and what is its purpose?

    (3) if I do a clean install with my DVD with my vista... If I want in a future close that I can use the recovery DVDs I got it or not?

    (4) to the drivers section for my laptop for each part has 5,6,7 or 8 drivers for win vista... which is good, or it's all the same?

    (5) in general, what do you propose? Are there reasons why not to do my format? I did a large number of formats in desktop, but never in the notebooks.

    Sorry if you tired with my questions and sometimes my bad English...
    Thank you in advance...

    Why not.

    As to the question;

    (1) possibly the Vista operating system does not recognize the HARD drive during the installation of the OS. In this case you must install storage Intel Matrix (Robson package) Manager first! It of a driver SATA and can be found on the Toshiba or Intel driver page.

    (2) Windows recovery environment (WinRE) is placed on the hidden partition and it of necessary to restore a damaged operating system.
    The Vista operating system automatically creates the hidden partition and Windows re installing the OS.

    (3) Yes, you can use the Toshiba Recovery CD. But it erases the entire HARD drive always.

    (4) take a newer version

    (5) generally I put t see any reasons to get in shape. The preinstalled Vista operating system has been configured and all the tools of Toshiba, drivers and additional software should work very well.
    I don't recommend a new format if the operating system is working well.

    Good bye

  • Satellite A200-196: can't get all speakers to work with the home theater sound Creative T7900

    I run windows Vista Home premium, on my Toshiba Satellite A200-196, and I have a creative T7900 7.1 System.
    I'm not all stakeholders to work. Only the woofer and two front speakers are currently playing a sound.

    The sound in Control Panel option gives me the options in addition to stereo speakers.

    I have no possibility to choose 5.1 or 7.1 speakers and I need to know do I need a software driver (all drivers are appearing to date), or do I have to change to another option, or buy an external sound card?

    I have only two input jacks, input microphone and headphone output. How can I get all stakeholders to work and achieve the home theater experience?

    Hello

    I Don t think that the sound card is capable of doing 5.1/7.1 since there are many takes longer then a "sound-output.

    If I were you, I would buy an external USB soundcard that is capable of doing 5.1 or 7.1 to offer you experience complete home theater.

    Another solution is not existing. Sorry mate.

  • Satellite A200: Should I remove the battery when working on the power supply

    Hello

    I've been running an A200 machine for the last 2 months, bought as a desktop replacement in order to fit in my small apartment. I realize now that I never ued work on battery - it is always powered on sector. Since this is unlikely to change, should I remove the battery? Deing battery degrades remaining in the machine while it is continusouly by the industry feeding, or does it not matter?

    Thank you very much in advance for your reviews.

    GW.

    You can remove it, but it should not be done. For me, it's stupid to remove the battery and let the dust make the battery place dirty. The batteries we use today are very good and Scott wrote the electronic power supply just to check if the battery is full and care the battery and the battery capacity.

  • Satellite A200 - I can boot from PCI express card?

    I have a laptop A200.

    I recently bought a PCI expresscard HD. Many people have asked this question already on many sites and regarding several different brands and models of laptops. According to anadtech and other techys the only way to do an ExpressCard hd is updated the BIOS. During the installation of Windows it says that it canoe on the device because the BIOS is not able to boot from it.

    Toshiba creates a new BIOS to allow starting the expresscard hd or not Toshiba have a laptop model that will allow already, as im thinking of buying a new laptop but only if this option is available.

    There someone using windows vista/xp knows a way round.

    Hello

    As far as I know it s not possible to boot from PCI express card on Satellite A200.
    In addition these books where you can boot from this slot are not known to me. Only the options HDD, CD/DVD, USB and network, but all that s.

    In addition, I put t know what you mean with PCI expresscard HD.
