• Satellite A200-1BJ does not start

  Hello

  My Satellite A200-1BJ does not start. After turning on the button it starts only for 1 or 2 seconds (flashing light, work from HDD, fan work, display blank) and then it turns off automatically. Once it happened days before but I didn't have the time to solve it and over the next few days, he has not occurred. Now, I tried to launch it more than 20 times and it still won't start.

  I tried only with full battery and also only with the power adapter. I removed the HDD, RAM, keyboard, DVD, speakers, display and a few other connector under the keyboard and it still does not start and it shuts down after 1-2 seconds each time.

  In recent months he sometimes exploded due to overheating during work so I cleaned the dust inside.

  No problem with the motherboard or power?

  Thanks for help.

  Hmmm... on this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is. described behavior is the same as in cases when the BIOS is dead after failed BIOS update installation.

  Of course, it's mainboard problem but what exactly, it is not easy to say. For me, this looks like faulty BIOS.

  Have you installed any updates or anything that may be responsible for this?

• Satellite A200-AH1 does not start problem

  I have this Toshiba Satellite A200 - AH1 laptop computer that will not start.

  The system has 1 GB of RAM, (2x512MB).

  When I remove 1 stick, the system starts without a problem, if I replace it, and the other, the laptop boots also upwards. I tested the two ram slots and ram spent each time.

  The problem of the laptop does not start only seems to happen when the laptop has installed two sticks. I tried even to 2 different new corresponding sticks and still nothing until I remove 1 piece of ram.

  Everyone encountered this problem before?
  Any ideas what the problem may be.

  My only other option would be to install a single piece of 1 GB of ram, but I would really like a better option.

  Thanks in advance...

  You got your laptop with these memory modules?
  Are you sure that you are using compatible RAM (DDR2-667)?

• Satellite Pro L50 does not start with 8 GB

  I have a brand new L50 Pro of Satellite (PSKK3A-001001)

  Config of RAM is default of 1 x 4 GB memory DDR3 12800 1 use slot 1 slot free
  I removed 4GB and install 1 DDR3L 12800 8 GB but it does not start.
  The form of State capacity 16 GB so with 2 slots logically, that means 2 x 8 GB cards.
  He also said DDRL, which I assume is the correct type.

  The 4 GB mark was Hynix and the 8 GB is Apacer.
  Anyone have a resolution on this or know what the problem is?

  On this forum you can find many threads where people describe similar problems. In most cases the problem is compatibility modules, especially if Ram needs to be upgraded with modules produced by different manufacturers.

  According to the specifications of the laptop you need DDR3L memory (1600 Mhz).
  Talk with your dealer and ask if there's Kingston compatibility module. Kingston offers high quality and 100% compatible memory modules.

• Satellite Pro 460 does not start with the new drive in

  I recently received a Satellite Pro 460, but he had no hard drive.
  It starts great without a disc in but as soon as I put a new hard drive in it does not start.

  I thought that it might be again a hard drive, so I pulled out my old Toshiba Satellite with my old drive to work, and yet, it does not start.

  Someone has any ideas why this is and what I can do about it

  I think that you can not do much. Satellite pro 460 CDT, for example, comes with 2 GB of HARD drive. If you try to get it work with similar HDD without success, it may be defective IDE port on the motherboard.

  What HARD drive you are trying to use on this good old classic?

• Satellite A200 PSAEOE does not start after upgrading memory

  Hi, I am first time here.

  I bought a Toshiba A200 PSAE0E-03J02JDR with 2 GB of RAM. I bought a pair of ram Corsair (2 * 2 GB VS2GSDS667D2). The computer does not start after that I installed the memory. I have intel 945 chipset, which is capable of 4 GB (manual page 1-2). The bios version is 1.8 2007.

  Can anyone help me, please.

  Hello

  The A200 series supports different chipsets;
  Intel 945 PM
  Intel 945GM
  Intel 943GML

  As far as I know your laptop supports the * 943GML * Intel chipset and the chipset supports 2 GB RAM max.
  Take a look at your laptop s user manual * Page 18.*

  Summer: 4 GB of RAM are not possible, and therefore your laptop does not start.

• Satellite Pro A120 - does not start with 4 GB of memory

  Hi all

  I'm new here so please be gentle!

  I have a Satellite Pro A120, model No. PSACOE - 037014EN and you want to increase the memory 512 MB present. I tried 2 different sets of memory 4 GB (2x2gb), but the machine does not start. I tried the different modules together and on their own but still no joy.

  Where I'm going wrong? This model will not take 2 GB memory modules?

  Any advice will be appreciated.

  Best regards

  Dr. Feelgood

  Hello

  Before changing something about your hardware, please make sure that if the computer supports the new pieces of material and, therefore, you can also consult the user manual.

  Anyway, I checked this and this laptop can only be upgraded to 2 GB maximum. This means that you can use the module of 1 GB in each slot and * no * 2 GB in each slot.

  So please bring back the memory modules and buy 2x1GB. It will work.

• Satellite C660-108 does not start with 8 GB of RAM

  I bought 2 x 4 GB memory modules to upgrade memory up to 8 GB.
  With 8 GB installed, the laptop does not start, but he will start with 6 GB installed.
  Modules 4 GB 6 GB configuration and wood East of 1.8.

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  According to the manual, this laptop can be upgraded up to 8 GB of RAM.

  Then you should be able to use the 2 x 4 GB RAM modules

  I think that both modules are not compatible with each other and therefore cannot boot up the laptop.

  You should test the laptop with the help of other modules.

• Satellite 1800-712 does not start with the new HARD drive

  Hello world.

  I am currently trying to install a new HARD drive in my notebook of 1800-712.
  I'm having a few trubbles as my Satellite won't start with my new HARD drive.

  I upgraded my BIOS to the latest version.
  The new HARD drive is a 40 GB Samsung.

  Any suggestions on what I need to do to make it all works?

  THX, Philippe

  Hello

  This device was shipped with 20 GB HARD drive.
  You again is 40 GB.
  I guess that the BIOS does not recognize the HARD drive because of the size.

• Satellite A200-27R does not start

  I got my Satellite A200-27R for 2 years and 8 months and 2 weeks ago he crashed and died. At the time, I was watching on the internet and had probably opened pages 3 or 4 when it froze and I got a blue screen with white writing telling me that something had gone wrong, and my laptop has been shut down to protect themselves.

  I was unable to turn it back on for 24 hours, but when he did not return on her cost again function normally, but I backed up all my files incase it happens again. About 10 hours later the same thing happened again: freeze; blue screen and then try to restart.

  Since then, when I try to turn it back on it is stuck on the "leading innovation" Toshiba start screen; or goes to a black screen and says there has been a media test failure and something to do with Realtek x 100 or so or until I remove the battery, so it shuts down; or asks me to boot into safe mode and system restore which I made several times now, but this did not help.

  I would be really grateful if someone could tell me if they have had similar experiences, and they did, and if there is anything I can do to fix it? Thank you very much.

  Hello

  BSOD can be the result of the serious software problem or hardware problem.
  If the new OS installation didn t help you solve this problem, I think that the hardware malfunction would cause the BSOD.

  Usually the laptop automatically stops due to the higher temperature.
  A higher temperature may affect other parts like the RAM modules or the motherboard.
  Thus, in many cases the BSOD appears due to problem of memory.

  I think you should first clean the cooling modules. You must remove the dust using a jet of compressed air. In most cases, it is the best procedure to get rid of the dust.
  Then check the RAM modules. You can try to start Notepad with a module only.
  Then move modules to different locations in order to check the slots too.

  Of course, the HARD drive should be checked also. You can use a free software called Drive fitness Test. It is good, a freeware software which can be downloaded from different pages.

  If no advice mentioned would help you, then I recommend to ask a technician to Toshiba for help. They could use special tools in order to get results on the failure.

• Satellite A200 PSAFCA does NOT start

  Here's the story.

  I got this laptop Australian (A200 PSAFCA) that came with Vista, but like everyone else I can't stand Vista so I removed it.
  Tried to install XP and to my surprise XP installation has actually detected the hard drive and it reformatted no problem.
  Then starts copying files and the premiere it reboot restarts very well and then it crashes on start "TOSHIBA" logo screen then restarts automatically and goes on and on...

  There is not much I can do in the BIOS, and yes it detects the HARD drive in there.

  I'm so bored and even tried to install Vista on the lappy and omg... it won't detect the hard drive even for the installation program.

  WHATS WITH THAT! This is the first laptop I ever tried to format and I never thought it will be ridiculously difficult.
  Can anyone shed light on what I might try? I'm out of ideas.

  P.s anyone knows if re-formatting computers laptop Toshiba is out of scope of the warranty?
  Thank you guys.

  Hello

  I had similar problem with my Satellite A200. Enter the BIOS settings and the default value. Reboot the laptop and again use the CD of Windows XP Home edition installations.

• Satellite A200 - 19K does not start

  On the other computer, Satellite A200 - 19K, we here,
  When we try to turn it on, the power light comes on, and the AC power lamp light therapy if it is plugged.
  Also, the hard drive light flashes once then turns off but the screen remains black and the computer makes the usual noise "woosh" that all computers but just for a second before dying out.

  We tried to remove the battery, then replace there already, but it did not work.
  Any ideas on what could be the problem and how to fix it?

  Hello

  Sounds not good guy!
  You said that you have already tried to replace the battery?

  Try to remove the battery and unplug the power adapter for about 20-30 min.
  Then, connect the new and try to start the laptop.
  If it doesn't help then you have no choice but to contact the service provider authorized in your country for assistance.
  The A200series seems to be not not very old so I guess that your warranty is valid and the repair must be made free of charge.

  Good luck

• Re: Satellite A200-1AX does not start after the BIOS update

  Hi all!

  I wanted to install XP on a Satellite A200-1AX.
  So I tried to update the Bios to the version that supports supported XP.

  When I tried to install it, crashed Vista and now the laptop won't even turn on.

  When I keep the power button pressed, the whistling fan but nothing happens.
  I think the BIOS is gone or corrupted.

  What should I do?
  Thanks in advance for any help!

  > When I keep the power button pressed, the whistling fan but nothing happens. I think the BIOS is gone or corrupted. What should I do?

  What to say to boyfriend. It seems that something was wrong during the process of updating the BIOS maybe the BIOS was not written correctly and the ROM module must be flashed again with the help of a special procedure and the tool.

  In this case, you can do anything you will need to contact the ASP in your country for a fix!

  Don t waste time and ask a technician for assistance.

  Good luck and best regards

• Satellite L30 10Y does not start with the new RAM modules

  Hello
  regged just with this forum I have a problem to upgrade memory.

  I read through a few problems of memory here and all users that it is a problem of memory comaptible. I got Hynix 512 MB RAM in my laptop and I bought 2 x 1 GB memory Hynix these two are match sticks to the installed memory, but when I installed my laptop wouldn't boot at all. It would only boot if I had a stick in both.

  I tried to switch ports top and btm and even when a stick was installed it says in XP, Vista and Windows 7 (yes I tried all systems) 896 MB of available space. I even tried to use my other Hynix stick, but he won't start and showed more stick of 1 GB (896 MB usable in Windows 7). After reading all the threads I wonder if it is a hardware failure or is there a fix in the world of Toshiba or perhaps in the world of Toshiba, the L series is almost obsolete and not worth to help people who unwittingly bought their goods.

  I apologize for being slightly down on Toshiba but a laptop that shows what he can work and is not a company should hold his hand up and say that Yes, there is a fault and help deal with the problem.

  You see 896 MB, because the rest is reserved for VRAM for graphics card.

  Sometimes RAM may simply be incompatible, because of incompatibilities of calendar or RAM chip/controller design differences.

  What speed and timings is your original RAM?
  PCxxxx / DDRxxx =
  Schedules CASES/RAS =.

  What speed and timings is your new RAM?

• Satellite Pro 480CDT does not start with mounted HARD disk?

  Hello
  I have tried several disks in my Satellite Pro 480CDT, but none of them starts. The screen stays black and the power led blinks orange (long, short, short, short, short, long, short, short). If I drive the machine past the on-screen "In Touch With tomorrow, TOSHIBA. He sees Windows CD-ROM or a floppy disk. I tried with 6 hard drives all below to 6 GB and AFAIK the work. I tried with another 480CDT a 220CS and a 2140CDS. Surely all hard drives and computers laptops have the same flaw? What I need to update BIOS or something as none of the drives are original for the machines.
  Help, please!
  Thank you

  John.

  Hi John

  I'm afraid of nothing that you can do everything alone. When the electronic power supply detects a power problem, it sends the hex code. In this case you should contact the technicians. They can read this code and will know what the problem is here.

  Just FYI: I discovered this disc HARD original for this unit has the P000244000 part number. Maybe it will help you get another HARD drive for testing.

  Sorry I can't tell you more info on this good old classic.
