  • Satellite A210-17R: power management automatically changes to the default settings

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A210-17R with Win XP SP2. Works pretty well, except for the power management settings (they might call energy Mgmt., I don't know, cause Im using a German language version, so all the terms I use are translated from German).

    I am connected with my user name with administrator rights, then this isn't the common thing, where you cannot change the power mgmt based on your user status. I can actually change any settings (when disable hard drive and screen and so on, knowing what to do when the lid is closed), but somehow she maintains herself reset default settings. I tried to remove all the profiles of power except one, but still... keeps resetting. Ive tried to save the changes, eteinde, save the settings and the mashine completely but anyway even if not instantly (and I did not understand a pattern yet) it maintains the default reset.

    Its very annoying cause, I would leave on my laptop at night to download stuff, but I want to close the lid during the night and when I open the lid again in the morning, the day before on.

    Any suggestions?

    Hello

    As much as I know Satellite A210 isn't always supported WXP. What GST version you have installed on your A210?

    Until that Toshiba does not offer tested WXP tools and utilities, you can face more similar questions. In any case, you can try to use Windows XP Home edition power options and check the functionality. Maybe it will work well.

  • Satellite P100-216 - power adapter continues to whistle and does not load

    any thoughts?

    Hello

    For me, it looks like a malfunction of AC adapter.
    I think that the cable must be broken, due to the fact that the adapter keeps whistling.

    I can give you only one advice; the adapter needs to be replaced!
    In this case, you should contact the ASP in your country and should ask for help.

    Hello

  • Satellite M40x-189 heats up when it is connected to the power adapter

    Hey,.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite M40x-189, which is about 18 months old. Recently, I had too replace the battery, but now it seems that my adapter had fried itself. He refuses now too charge my cell phone for more than a few minutes and the part of the adapter that goes into the laptop becomes ridiculously hot even after a few minutes.

    I can't find where too much to buy a new adapter, I get results, but adapters look totally different, can anyone tell me if Toshiba has changed the cards and where too find a power adapter.

    This may help - adapter PA1650 - T 02:100 - 240V AC 50-60 Hz 65W / 3 pins with 19V DC output.

    Also, I find that on the occasions, my laptop just cut. In the middle of everything what I do, and the laptop itself would become so hot, it can't be touched for a few minutes, interestingly, this only happens when the laptop is charging. This problem is not related too my adapter problem, because its been happening for a good month now.

    Thank you, in advance.

    Hello

    I saw your first thread on the power adapter and that other users already suggested the power adaptor can be ordered from the maintainer authorized Toshiba in your country!
    If you n t know how to find the service provider allowed in your country, please take a look on the homepage of European support of Toshiba. You will find a link to the database ASP.

    As you have already said the laptop automatically stops downs have nothing to do with the AC adapter.
    I agree with you for me, it looks like overheating!
    Usually, this happens if fans and cooling modules cannot run with maximum efficiency.
    Dust may prevent the complete rotating fan!

    I recommend to use the vacuum against the bars of cooling hose to clean the fans!
    It should help!
    But please be careful.

  • Satellite A200 - STARTING problems, freezes on the connection of the power adapter

    My 3 YO A200 (PSAF3A-08202D has developed a problem with starting.
    I can start on battery power with WINDOWS VISTA BUSINESS (after 10 attempts, but freezes immediately when the power adapter is plugged in.)
    Display sometimes boots wide-screen, but mostly freezes before windows welcome.

    When running, the battery produces about 1 to 2 hours before a complete evacuation.
    When executing a battery, computer freezes when I plug Charger AC/DC immediately and going with my A100 charger as an alternative.

    Initial problem was a faulty hard drive and super hot air flow due to fluff the cooling block fan.
    Tech replaced original 120G HDD with 500 G and reloaded at the factory. works well for 3 months, then started with the same problems so conclude original disk HARD was just a secondary issue.

    So maybe fixed I overheated components on the motherboard. Reset of data cards initially fixed a problem starting but is gradually degraded.

    Reading through the forums seems that there is a huge amount of these laptops with similar issues. Is this a design flaw, like my other Satellite A100 is solid as a rock. All forums, which suggests resetting the cpu is running slow or be disconnected seem to be temporary repairs. Boot in safe mode and reset the default settings have no effect.

    A suggestion that a capacitor is at fault seems to be the fix is valid but which involves specialized tools is not available locally. Local agent of Harvey Norman for Toshiba are best part of unnecessary because they can send in Australia from Toshiba. Machine has been close to $2000 and is now worth Zip.

    I am unable to do anything with this machine, as all the ways of upgrading or resetting calls for AC power available and running.

    I'm about to do radical things and hope that this forum can enlighten us.

    Hi Mickaël

    You might be right. It seems that the motherboard is affected.
    Don't know why but higher temperature can still affect the internal parts.
    The temperature may increase if cooling fans n t working correctly. For example dust or debris leads to a higher temperature because cooling air cannot circulate properly.

    I have to clean my laptop's cooling grilles from time to time using a jet of compressed air. This allows to keep the temperature at the lower level.
    Of course the internal temperature is not always a reason for portable computers hardware malfunction equipment can begin to malfunction as always in an other products too: TVs, cars, game consoles

    I bought an extended warranty for my laptop, also for my LCD TV mercy always if a high-end product begin to malfunction and in the case of a warranty claim, the fault can be fixed free of charge.

  • Satellite A210: AC adapter makes a high pitch sound

    Someone at - it had the similar problem?
    How culd be the reasons?

    Hello

    I have a Sat A210 too and to be honest I didn t notice any high sounds coming from the AC adapter.

    But I had a similar problem with my laptop aged of 6 year from another production.
    The AC adapter cable was broken and so the noise of high tone was noticeable.

    AC adapter replacement was necessary and I replaced it with a new

    I recommend to check your adapter professionally and replace it.

  • Satellite Pro C660-16F: power adapter that is compatible

    Hi all

    I recently lost the charger of my Toshiba Satellite Pro C660-16F.

    It provides the output DC 19V - 3, 42A

    My father also has a Toshiba Satellite, model A300 1RF

    Supplies of its DC 19V - 4, 74A Chargers

    I don't know if I can use the charger of my father for my computer, like I don't know
    If it is just the current or excessive current it can cause damage.

    Can someone give me the answer to that?, thank you very much in advance!

    Hello

    You can use another adapter 19V.
    The value of the Volt is very important. You can ONLY use the power adapter that supports the 19V
    The ampere is too important, but it may be a little different.

    Your original adapter supports 3.42 Ampère and other 4.74. It's a little higher but not really relevant.

  • Satellite M300 guarantee for a power adapter broken?

    I have some problems with getting a new power adapter.

    First of all, I don't know if the warranty covers the power supply.

    Second, even if it does, the warranty (I bought a Toshiba Satellite M300, which came with a 1 year warranty, about 360 days ago) may expire before I can get the card sent to a Service Center for repair of toshiba in Victoria (I live in Tasmania.

    Thirdly, I tried to call until the call line of Toshiba which was given to me by the store, I bought the laptop, but after having pierced the numbers to get a representative human (and I tried several combinations) I had absolute silence from the other end of the phone, so I can't get all the answers to all your questions and I have no idea where to send the broken adapter.

    So wherever I need to send my adapter, it can be sent at the time, I will be actually return a new power adapter and is there anything else I should do to get it?

    Hello

    First of all:
    Yes, the power adapter is covered by warranty (if the warranty is valid) as the entire notebook

    Second:
    The standard warranty is one year. So if your warranty is still valid you should get in touch with a local ASP (certified partner) in your country and have to ask for help.
    The right ASP can be found [here: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/generic/ASP_SUPPORT]

    Third:
    See point 2, you must contact a local ASP.

  • Satellite A300 may depend on from when the power adapter plugged

    Hello

    I have a problem with my Toshiba Satellite A300 when the laptop is connected to the power adapter I have no possibility to turn it on, it's only 2-3 seconds once it comes down.
    When Toshiba is enabled with the battery power and I tried to connect the adapter it also goes down.
    I have no problem with the charge itself, but only with working with AC adapter.

    Please help me what can I do with this problem, does anyone has similar problem?

    Hello!

    For me it sounds like a hardware failure of the motherboard if the AC/DC adapter is plugged and the laptop is turned on

    I don't know but how best to m would be if you go to the authorized service provider nearest with the AC/DC adapter. Technicians can check your laptop and swap the motherboard if it of really necessary. The guys are very friendly and helpful!

    Here, you can search the nearest ASP:

  • Question about Satellite A30-power adapter

    Hello

    I own a laptop Satellite A30 and my charger just died. I have looked on the internet to buy a new one, but can not find the same model of the same brand (delta ADP-90FB REV electronics. (E) and having trouble finding something on the site Web of Toshiba.
    I found some Chargers compatible with laptops Satellite A30 on another site, but they are quite expensive (about £55). Another less expensive option?

    Hello

    Believe me: it s better to use than stuff unnamed original equipment. On the one hand, you win money and if your machine is broken due to a power adapter that gives your machine
    a wrong voltage or whatever.

    I had a great experience with my tecra 8100 a few years ago:

    My old AC was broken, so I bought one in a store, which has been declared as "corresponds to 100% and blablabla".

    Cost: $ 37

    After a while my machine freezes sometimes and for a day-> no boot.
    Then I gave my machine to fix after they have made their diagnosis, they asked, what sort of AC, I used. Heh? They explained to me, I used the AC adapter was not a constant voltage,
    If some capacitors smd-says 'goodbye '.

    You can save money, but give you him another side, believe me.
