• Satellite C660: Wireless Internet when remove the power supply drops

  Hello
  new Tosh Satellite C660 laptop works fine when the power supply cord is connected, soon as directed power is removed drops internet connection, usually to the second web page (the first web page is accessible, failure occurs usually when you try to access a new page)

  When I connect the power cable, internet connectivity returns as usual!

  I've been on the Advanced page setings power management,
  I have power settings "balanced" set up, and for the realtek card wireless put the plug and batttery power to maaximum settings (before they were to the maximum for diet and balanced for battery) even if it has no impact.

  The connection between the laptop and the wireless box seems 'excellent' level, the internet is the element which is a failure.

  I use the standard realteck card from the laptop (Realtek RTL8188CE Wireless LAN 802.11n PCI-E NIC) a D-Link Wireless N Router (DIR-615 ver1.00) and standard Modem provided by Virginmedia who bring them my services to wide band.

  All suggestions are welcome!

• Satellite A30 213: broken in the power supply pin

  I have so many problems with this.
  I'd rather put it in the trash than to fix it, but unfortunately I have important documents that I have not saved.

  Basically, the PIN into the Jack of the laptop is broken and I can't be able to my laptop and my battery is running out of power

  The battery is in the battery-compatible A30 - 213 in the A30 714?

  And someone has other solutions?

  Please answer as soon as possible

  Hello

  First of all a few words about the battery.
  If I m not wrong not the Satellite A30 213 uses the same battery as the A30-714.
  Therefore, you should be able to use the same battery in both units A30.

  With regard to the question on another solution.
  Well, there is only one real solution. The power supply needs to be replaced.
  I m not sure if it s only plugged or soldered on the map. However, I recommend you contact the ASP in your country for assistance.
  This should be always replaced by a mobile technician because the dismantling procedure is very delicate and difficult.

  Best regards and good luck

• Satellite L350-21F NO CONNECT the power SUPPLY

  The computer tells me in Windows it is not connected to the power supply, even if it is connected. I tried with and without battery, also the power icon is not lit, and now the battery is almost empty. The computer worked for the past 6 years and now all of a sudden what happens.

  Can you help me how to find which component does not work? What are the factors despite the adapter are possible because of this problem and how can I know?

  Thank you in advance.
  Elenktik

  Hello

  I think first of all you must check if the adapter is OK.
  The Satellite L350 requires a 6.32 A AC adapter 19V

  Possible part number: PA3290E-3AC3

• Satellite M40-225 - compatibility of the power supply?

  Hello

  I don't know if anyone would be able to help, but I recently posted on my power supply blow. I was able to get in touch with a diet that is supposed to be compatible with my laptop. The reference number of this power supply is PA3378E-1ACA which is 15v 5A side, and one that exploded because of worn wiring part was PA3378U-1ACA.

  Would it not good for me to use it? My laptop was left uncharged for days now, really needing to work! :(

  Thanks for any help anyone!

  Sincere greetings,
  Antony

  Hello

  Original AC adapter for your device is PA3283U-2ACA 15V 5A 75W universal adapter 100-240 v .

• Satellite A100-TA9: failure of the power supply cord - where to get a new

  Recently my power cord has stopped working on my Satellite A100-TA9 system.
  My system warranty has expired and passes through 'Authorized support vendors' Toshiba was useless.

  Anyone know where I can get a replacement power cord?
  I live in Toronto, Canada.

  Thank you

  Hello

  > My system warranty has expired and passes through 'Authorized support vendors' Toshiba was useless
  I n think so.

  First of all, you know that a disassembly of the laptop is very delicate and not easy. ASP technicians have sufficient experience to perform this replacement with touch course. I mean you have no risk something would be accidentally damaged during disassembly procedure.

  Second, you must contact the local ASP to get a compatible power cord.
  I think you'd need a power cord which has been designed especially for the A100 series.
  Guys could order directly from Toshiba.

  See you soon

• System fails to recognize the power supply and will not charge the battery

  Had motherboard replaced but, before that, I had tried a secondary power to check if my principal could be faulty.  Card mother equipped now and all working fine except that I can't get the sytem to recognize my main diet.  Battery won't charge and the system stops if I remove the power supply.  This is on a DELL XPS M1530 laptop.

  Thanks for all the ideas.

  Hello

  Motherboard might not be properly installed or has problems - easy to miss a rider or
  any other connection as well.

  Old battery? Unplug the power to the computer - remove the battery and clean the contacts with a pencil
  eraser (do not use this, if your battery is fine slots - just clean up the edges of the knife which fit in)
  them and be careful). Batteries are old, or it could be a problem with the computer.
  Check with the support of the machine system, and many of them have on line forums.

  New Lithium-Ion type battery usually last longer if you do not unload then less than 30%
  However on a laptop that not extend their life a lot. Best is to use the a/c adapter
  When this is possible.

  I use the free version of BatteryBar to monitor my battery. Click on the green button on the
  Yellow box on the right side of the page to download the latest stable version.

• Is it necessary to safely stop a raspberry Pi or I can just remove the power source?

  Is it safe to simply remove the power supply or which perhaps will lead to damage to the file system of the SD card, so a security sudo shutdown - hP now is mandatory?

  Just FYI-

  I had suspected as much, but a good reason to stop IP before disconnecting the power supply because it will help prevent the corruption of the file jwc_properties.ini.

  See this post.

• Replacing the power supply on a HP Pavilion P6000

  Outputs video (DVI and VGA) were both released on my motherboard. Rather than go through the hassle of dealing with Microsoft if I had to replace the MB, I decided to install a MSI Geforce 210 graphics card and the existing PCI express slot. However, the existing power is rated at 250 watts and the new video card got a minimum rating of 300 watts. It seems to work, and I don't do any high-end graphics or game. My main uses of the PC are paying bill online, e-mail and a few online forums. Should I replace the power supply with a higher nominal? I have a Hiper Type R PSU which is estimated at 580 watts and was planning to replace it with the 250, but it looks like not her suits because it is deeper than the power installed about half an inch. The deeper power looks like it should stick on a half inch at the rear of the computer when it is against the stop before power in the case. I would like to have some advice on the use of the existing offer or be able to use my power Hiper 580.

  The HP Pavilion P6617C model, which is the number of product BT427AAR developed a standard ATX size power supply. Dimensions (as you know) are 5.9 "x 3.4" on the back and depth 5.5"in the case. The small metal latch/stop button to slide the power supply existing forwards (for removal). There really is no support.

  4 rear mounting screws fix the power supply of the Cabinet. Of concern would be the length, an added 0.7 ", as well as cables/connectors.  You can try the Hiper in the case, and if it fits, OK. Otherwise, I suggest a diet that actually matches the Rosewill 630W

• Satellite A500 - battery light flashes when connected to the power supply

  Win 7 Satellite A500 PSAM3A-03P00E.

  Battery light flashes when connected to the power supply (intermittent fault), when I disconnect the sector and reconnect the flashing stops and battery (high capacity) continues to receive.

  Also, when battery light blinks the keyboard backlight stays on when it should white and if the backlight is turned off and the battery light starts to blink the keyboard backlight turns on, all other functions seem to work well.

  Charges of battery and the wedges load properly (when the battery flashes).

  Hello

  Have you noticed this problem since the first day of purchase?
  Theoretically, it could be possible that your battery begins to malfunction
  On the other hand, an electrical problem could also be possible

  However, try this:
  Remove the battery and the AC adapter. Then press and hold button power 30 sec long.
  Then insert the battery and plug AC adapter still does that help?

  By the way: this is the BIOS updated? If this isn't the case, perform an update.

• Satellite A200 cease automatically charge the battery?

  I'm really tierd of pepole telling me I have to unpluge the charger after the battery full coz to come if I still taken in the charger, the battery will be lost after all the time.

  I need the Expert pepole here to tell me is the Toshiba Satellite A200 is automatically stop charrging battery after it come complete or should I unplug the charger to save the dough?

  I hope that I have the answer to this question

  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 Pro U400-11V - charges only battery when the computer is turned off

  Following a reformatting my hard drive of the computer, my laptop recognizes only the AC/DC power adapter when it is turned off. When the computer is turned on, it does not recognize the AC adapter.

  Changed the power supply ac and it made no difference.

  Have also tried an update of the BIOS (3.0), I am running Windows Vista 32 bit.

  Hello

  I doubt it has something to do with the software or the operating system. In my opinion, that this looks like a hardware problem, because the battery will be always charged if AC/DC adapter is plugged in. That's why it of not necessary to enable this setting in the configuration of the software.

  If your BIOS is already updated, contact an authorized service provider. Technicians can check your laptop and maybe the motherboard needs to be replaced.

• Can satellite A200-1N7 - I remove Intel Matrix Storage Manager?

  Hello

  I have the Satellite A200 - 1N7 PSAE3E with the installation of Windows Vista 32 factory. I bought the laptop with * Intel Matrix Storage Manager * already installed. Recently, I noticed that Matrix Storage Manager requires little significant memory. I do not use any, either, I have several disks to use. I want to remove only keep the Intel AHCI drivers.

  Matrix Storage Manager there some features in Windows Vista somehow while I don't use it at all? Is it safe to delete?

  Thank you & best regards
  Sean

  Hello

  I totally agree with the above user. The Storage Manager provides AHCI drivers and shouldn't t be deleted. It of necessary on never cell phone that works on the AHCI mode.
  You can try to stop the service, as Al - eX has suggested, but I think that this will cause a BSOD.

  I think it would be a better option if you remove other programs you n t need (software test e. g.). Also used CCleaner to clean the registry and defragment the HARD disk in order to speed up.

• Is satellite A200 - possible to replace the grapchics card?

  Hello!

  I've had my Toshiba A200 - 1 M 8 for two years now and everything was going well until one day, while working on this subject, it is just went down. The arrested LEDs had any, even when not connected to the power supply and the laptop wouldn't start. I checked the habit - power cable bad, trying to see if the leds are gone or the laptop start with and without the battery in. Then I checked if all the cables are connected to the mother board the right way - they were. Know a little of material and to be a student of applied computer science, I thought that the problem was probably with the motherboard or something related to it.

  So, an I unplugged devices connected to the motherboard to see if this allows the flow of power through the Commission. Long story short, it turned out that when I disconnected the graphics card (radeon HD2600 256 MB) the LEDs showed once again, and of course, the laptop started, but only a sound signal once or twice, which is normal when there are essential, as the map, missing. After a further inspection, I found that two blocks of memory on the card have burned completely, which explains why it did not work.

  So now, here's my question: 1. is it possible to buy a replacement directly from Toshiba? If not, how can I specify what I seek, when searching through stores online and how can I check if it would be compatible with my laptop? 2. If it is possible to replace the card, it would be possible to replace with a better model (like hd3470), this means that my laptop would be able to manage the best card and is it still possible to find a better card, mounting my laptop (physically, I mean, it's pretty tight in there: P)?

  Thanks for any helpful answer in advance, if more information is needed to answer my questions, I would be happy to provide it.

  Hello

  (1) an authorized service provider can replace the VGA card to you, directly from Toshiba. There is a list of the ASP on the Toshiba site, in the support section.

  (2) Unfortunately, you cannot upgrade the VGA card in most laptops because there is no common standard model, the BIOS is coded to work with a specific VGA card and the cooling system is designed for the dissipation of the heat of this VGA card.

• Re: Satellite P850 full face feels 'sparkling' when it is connected to the power supply

  Hello

  I recently bought a P850 138.
  Whenever the power supply is connected and turned on the laptop case computer feels strange to the touch, and if you move your hand through it, as you often eventually do during the strike, etc., you get this weird 'static' y feeling.

  When you are disconnected from the power grid the sensation continues for a short while, but soon after the case feels just like normal metal again.

  I guess that something happens which is originally the case become statically charged, but does anyone have any ideas as to why what is happening? Is this a common problem?

  Any ideas?

  Thank you very much in advance for your answers

  Hi neh23

  It's the first time I read on this subject and in my opinion its definitely not a portable common behavior I think you should get in touch with a Toshiba service provider in your country to check the laptop.
