Satellite A210 - 171 (PSAFJE) - powers but does not start

Hello

I hope someone can help me. I have a satellite A210 - 171 (PSAFJE). When I press the power button, the blue satellite lights text at the front left lights up, the light blue power (O with a top vertical bar) the HARD turns, the clique CD/DVD drive on a couple of times and its orange light flashes but nothing (BIOS and POST) is displayed on the screen.

The battery and the power supply are fine.

I tried to fix a screen of stand-alond without result.

The CPU HSF seems to be spinning and blowing air on the side.

I removed the HDD SATA and attaches to a desktop system - it reads and looks quite good.

I reinstalled the SODIMM - in fact, I removed the and then replaced them, everyone in the slot on the other.

When powered, if I press on the "* FN *' & ' * F10 *' keys together, the indicator below the F10 lights & stays on until I repeat the sequence of button.» This happens not with ' * FN *' & ' * F11 *'.

I downloaded a * + Satellite A210/A215 Satellite Pro A210, Equium A210, Satego A210 Series Maintenance Manual + * (first edition may 2007) but the instructions for * + remove the keyboard + * do not appear to be correct and notes to open the laptop (to have a look on the system map) say you must do this first (and appear not to be accurate in any case).

Someone has an idea what more I can do, what might be the problem or where I can get the valid instructions for opening the case?

Thanks much for any help.

In my opinion, you did all that would help determine the possible fault
I would check also the RAM and the HARD drive first, it seems that the HARD drive is ok and that the RAM modules are not the problem. I don t think that the two modules of RAM might be bad at the same time, so I think that the problem can not be linked to the faulty RAM.

It is possible that the CPU or the motherboard is affected, but in this case, some diagnostic tools are needed that would allow to obtain more details on the affected parts

But this can be done by a technician of Toshiba ASP so what to say that sounds like a serious hardware problem (motherboard, cpu, etc.)

But try this: unplug the power adapter, remove the battery and leave the laptop disconnected for a while and then connect the two parts and try to turn on the laptop

If this is not enough, it helps technician ASP would be necessary

  • Satellite A500-148 turns on but does not start

    Hi all, I have a Satellite A500-148 from a friend who asked me to take a peek, it turns on, but does boot when I press the following power button occurs:
    -The power button and the charger are on and the hdd led only flashes once
    -The fan comes on for about 3 seconds
    -No image on the screen, I indicated a light against it, but there is really no image

    Tried to reset by pressing the button for 30 seconds without the changer is plugged.

    I disassembled it and noticed that this laptop has an external video card, so my question is, who's broken the video card or the motherboard.

    Thank you

    To be honest I don't understand this with an external video card. Can you describe how you mean exactly?
    In any case, on this virtual path, it is not easy to offer the exact diagnosis. You can try the little test and remove this external adapter, RAM and HARD disk, and try to start again.

    Ask your friend if he had something that may be responsible for this.

  • PC runs, but does not start. Monitor, keyboard and mouse with no signal.

    PC runs, but does not start. Monitor, keyboard and mouse with no signal. Pretty much. And when you want me to remove the battery of the bios, or whatever, it seems tight and hard to get out because it is surrounded by other elements.

    All fans work, the power/battery or anything that works I think that, since there is a fan on the right where it is and it seems to work. I remember what happens before, I don't know, but before that, there are many gels. This error below was made before all this happened, but I managed to run f8 and then run normally until it freezes again. Then, after that, it runs but does not start. No beeps etc. The best fans will have plenty of vouches and Bravo to wherever you like me to vouch or maybe send the great service that you provide to administrators if that's even possible, haha.

    Thanks in advance.

    It is usually held in place by 4 screws and can be held in place with a spring clip.

    Most essential, is that you need to buy a replacement with the right number of straight plug forms to adapt to your PC.

    This seems more complicated than it really is and takes about 5 to 10 minutes to do the replacement.

    Look at the power output of the power supply failure and buy a new, more powerful.  New desktop PC usually come usually with a diet under size and what are the causes these failures is too strong a request for devices you have connected.  So, buy one with a higher power rating.  Usually about 500 Watts does the trick.

  • Satellite A300 - rotates but does not start

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A300. I had several probems for the boot since 2 months ago: when I want to turn on my laptop, it turns on but the screen keeps black and it does not load the screen "Toshiba Leading Innovation". 'Satellite' (to the left of the mouse) light is on (it would go only about a second then to start and then turn off) and it will turn off.

    I try again for so many times with all the possibilities: without battery, only with the power adapter, two, but it does not start. I don't know what I can do. I always Hibernate my laptop because I'm afraid of can not start it the next day.

    Could you help me? If she cares: I had to buy a new battery (not original from Toshiba) because I had to change the original. No more changes to my laptop.

    Thank you very much and sorry for my English written: S

    Hey Buddy,

    > I had to buy a new battery (not original from Toshiba) because I had to change the original. No more changes to my laptop.
    Of course, it s always advisable using Toshiba original spare parts only, but if you notice the same problem with AC adapter only it s not related to the new battery.

    Just to make a better diagnosis: If you have connected an external monitor? The internal display is perhaps the problem and doesn't turn on and it would be useful if you are testing the situation and an external monitor.

    But this noise as a hardware problem serious and in this case, you can wait to contact an authorized service provider. Technicians professional diagnostic tools to make an accurate diagnosis and to Exchange defective equipment parts.

  • Satellite C55 - Has - 1 L 0 does not start in Windows 8

    Hey guys.
    I hope you can help me a bit.
    I have a Toshiba Satellite C55 - has - 1 L 0 here and it does not start in Windows 8.

    I turn it on, the Toshiba start screen appears, and then I get a message on a black screen saying "media control" (failure) and after a little while "no boot device. Please restart.

    I checked the BiOS and it does not see the hard drive (said HARD drive - no) and even in the boot order list, I don't get a list with the DVD drive with the exact name, but for the HARD drive.
    I tried to do a recocery with the F12 key and get the list to choosw where I want to start but by selecting the disk hard does not work.

    So I thought I'd try a live distribution of linux to see where is my hard drive and back up my data (after some settings in the BIOS - boot CMS mode) but I can't find there too. (I have a file fstab and mtab, it would help if I posted it here?)
    Is my HARD drive broken? Can I try something else?

    Thank you very much!

    You are right. This issue should be fixed by the authorized service provider.
    Furthermore, why do some risk steps to check this problem, if the warranty is valid.
    Warranty will cover the repair costs.

    8 GB of RAM 1333 MHz DIMM0

    It will not start.  Trying to start the machine, it enters a loop-

    1. startup chime

    2. grey screen with Apple

    3. the small wheel starts to turn under the Apple

    4. the screen goes black

    ... and the cycle starts over.

    The computer does not start in Mode safe.  In an attempt to safe mode the loop above has the addition:

    3. a progress bar is displayed but does not progress.

    I have reset the PRAM

    It will start up in target Mode, so I was able to recover data

    In target Mode, I was able to run first aid utility on the drive.  This has not fixed the problem.

    I can hold down the Option key and see Macintosh HD and the recovery Partition.  If I try to boot from the recovery partition, I get the same loop.

    I can start in the Test of online material, which revealed no material problems

    I can boot in Verbose mode and it always happens in the same place

    Execution fsck_hfs (version 226.1.1 of hfs)

    ' ' It would be possible for me to insert the "var/db/BootCache.playlist" file using target disk mode?

    Other thoughts?

    When you try to restore the image (F11 at startup), the laptop seems to be as he tries to start missing Windows installation (Windows Boot Manager error page).

    Partitions 'SYSTEM', 'HP_RECOVERY' and 'HP_TOOLS' have not been affected. Recovery files of ~ 15 GB are still there!

    The Windows (2nd primary) partition was deleted and then recreated as an NTFS partition. Since then, the recovery process does not start.

    How can I restore my intact HP_RECOVERY partition system without using recovery DVD? (I can't access right now.)

    The partition Windows has need of a specific disk label? What is the magic that breaks the recovery when an NTFS partition is all simply deleted and then re-created?

    Electrical components sometimes must have all the food sources removed and reintroduced to work properly.  Try to perform a hard reset first, if this does not work then we will move on to the next step.

    To perform a hard reset

    • Shut down the computer by going to the menu start and select shut down. (If you have no display, hold the button for 5 seconds); (if the computer don't market, go to the next step)
    • Unplug the adapter from the laptop.
    • Remove the battery from the bottom of the laptop.  There will be a switch/battery eject button.
    • Wait at least 1 minute with all sources of power disconnected.

  • Satellite Pro 4220 - update the BIOS does not start

    Hello!

    Please, someone tell me what is the problem with the update to v1.60 SP4220 BIOS? It does not start even do it according to instructions.

    I did the following:
    1 download/have unzipped the package v1.60 since the BIOS page on a non-bootable floppy disk empty
    2. put the floppy in the computer
    3. turn on the device with the F12 key

    With a floppy, I got the "non-system disk" error and another with a "EMBRL" error message missing. What is it, I'm not familiar with that one?

    Best regards

    Hello

    Can I ask why you want to update the BIOS?
    You have problems?
    If the laptop works well the update of the BIOS is not necessary! My laptop is about 6 years old and I have no day BIOS!

    However, I think that you didn't use the right update procedure.
    Please check this document before starting the BIOS update:

  • Satellite A210-ST0 - wireless LAN driver does not work

    I recently reformatted my laptop with windows XP, and I have all the drivers working except the wireless Lan driver.
    I got the driver from the toshiba page and this is the XP driver. I install it, but the computer still does not recognize that the map has a pilot (appears as a question mark in the Device Manager) does anyone else have this problem? is there another place to get the driver?

    PS: I'm pretty good with computers, I just need the driver file and can installed with on an EXE file

    Hmm

    What page of the driver Toshiba did you use for the download of the driver?

    As I m not wrong not the * Satellite A210 - ST0 PSAFGC * is a Canadian series and therefore, it would be desirable to use the Canadian page for the download of the driver!

    Check this box:
    http://support.Toshiba.ca/support/download/ln_byModel.asp

    The WLan card chip could come from Realtek or Atheros.

    Last but not least, you should check your BIOS version. If the latest version is available on the Canadian page and then try to update!

    Good luck

  • Re: Satellite A210 - 1 4 - ATI CCC does not work on Vista

    Recently, I was unable to open on my laptop Toshiba Satellite A210 - 1 4 ATI Catalyst Control Center. When I click the icon of the CCC on the start menu, the icon opens but when I right click on it and select Catalyst Control Center nothing happens but the icon is still there.

    I had a similar problem a while ago but instead of doing nothing, the splash screen appears, and then Vista displays the message "ATI CCC has stopped working".

    Any ideas?

    Hey,.

    If Catalyst Control Center won t open, it could be something wrong with the display driver I would recommend reinstalling the the official website of Toshiba display driver:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    Simply search your laptop model and download the new version. Before installing, remove the old first and restart your laptop. Then install the downloaded version.

    It works for you?

    What happens if you put the device by pressing and holding the button walk / stop?
    The laptop boot?

    To access the BIOS, you must press F2 to turn on/off the unit.
    Note: the laptop must be turned off completely in order to access the BIOS. 8.1 Win usually enters the hybrid shutdown mode that is NOT the real stop
