Satellite A30 - 203 - didn't turn, just flashing lights

My Satellite A30-203 does not illuminate. When I press the power button / nothing happens, but if I remove the power then when I press the power button all the lights other thanthe lights HD lights up and the power lights going outs and less than half a second after the rest of the lights will turn off.

Is this what can I do with it?

Hey,.

In my opinion, there is nothing that you can do it sounds like a bad material work because Windows installation doesn t affect the startup procedure until Windows starts so you have a hardware problem.

What you can try is the following:

If it doesn t work you need professional help from technicians of laptop I think

    First question;
    Why you n t follow the first thread?

    I discovered that the WiFi network is optional on the A30-203. If you can update the laptop with a minPCI wireless network card.
    After further investigation, I discovered that the Wireless LAN Card Kit PA3212U-1MPC may be compatible with your laptop.

    This can be ordered from the service provider authorized in your country!

    PS; I didn t find any info if your 3362U-1MPC is supported or not.

  • Satellite A30-203 - need compatible WLAN mini PCI card

    Hello

    I've had my laptop for several years now and have only just signed up for wireless broadband service. My Satellite A30-203 can be improved internally with a mini PCI card (I checked the back) but where I can get a compatible?

    Authorized distributor of parts for Toshiba in my country seems to be outrageous to say the least and are insistent that I send my laptop for them to him have mounted that seems excessive. I also checked the Web from Toshiba site without a bit of luck. Anyone know the part number for a card compatible with my system and where I can get one?

    Thank you

  • Satellite A30 - 203 - recovery disk does not work

    Hi all

    I have an old Satellite A30-203 and have a problem. I tried to format my laptop but the product recovery cd does not seem to work in deletion the data on my disk, its becomes blocked during loading files of ntfs? Now I am not able to retrieve a windows session would I need a new product recovery cd and would be able to get it?

    Thank you

    Hi dimation,

    It is difficult to say what is the reason of this but made is either it s a laptop problem itself or the recovery disc (e.g. scratches) causes this problem.

    In my opinion the best way to check this using a Microsoft Windows disk. If the installation completed successfully, you need a new recovery disk. As a result, you can ask a service provider authorized in your country! :)

  • Satellite A30-203 does not start

    I have a laptop A30-203. When turn on/off all the front lights indicates but unit not start

    Hello

    Try this:
    Remove the battery, disconnect the adapter from the laptop and wait a little bit more about 1 hour.
    Then reconnect the two parts and check if the laptop could start.

    If that does not help then I guess that a hardware problem serious cause this and you need someone who could check all parts laptop such as RAM, CPU or the motherboard.

    Now, I found that works 7.0 microsoft is not anywhere on my computer while it was preinstalled - specs says - ready-to-go-works 7.0.

    Return of any ideas where I can get it? It's somewhere on the CD of tools and utilities? Thank you!

    If you want to get that back you will need to use the Toshiba Recovery disk, which was supplied with the laptop.

  • Satellite A30 - radio WLAN is turned off

    I just installed a mini-map broadcom wireless and drivers for my Satellite A30 which shows as working, but when I try to connect, it tells me that the radio is turned off.

    I tried the switch on the left side and press F8 but nothing seems to happen.

    Hey,.

    Before you start a lengthy discussion, you you connected your wireless card WLAN antennas?

    Or let say, it's your laptop equipped with two antenna cables? Usually it s a black and a white cable you need to connect to the wireless network card.

  • External good DVD burner need for Satellite A30-203

    Can someone suggest a good external dvd burner for my A30-203
    I think I need to copy the videos of the laptop I think that their storage on the laptop uses a lot of memory.

    Can someone recommend / help please.

    Hello Ken

    It will be interesting to know what is your priority. Do you want ultra-thin DVD burner and take it with you or you want to copy all that at home.

    I ask this question because I used the old Satellite 1900 with external DVD writer. My old Satellite has USB 1.0 only and I bought the optical disc player placed in the external case and hooked up with my Satellite via the firewire port. I was very satisfied and data transfer was excellent. I must also say that desktop DVD burners can run with faster burning speed.

    Your laptop has USB 2.0 ports, and you can use the USB connectivity for external device. If you want to use at home I recommend you to use something like this. I had the same manufacturer. It works perfectly.

  • Satellite A30-203 does not illuminate

    My Toshiba A30-203 does not start. Initially, the laptop kept closing after only 5 to 10 minutes (which I thought may be due to overheating), but now it does not start even upward. When you press the power button, all LEDs indicating to except the hard drive and power on the LEDs.

  • Satellite A30-203: never cooling stops when the adapter is plugged

    Hello everyone,

    I'm using satellites SA30-203. In recent days, main fan of my computer ceases when the adapter is plugged. When operating with the battery, the main fan is sometimes - normally - stop.
    I'm not working only not with software that it takes a lot of CPU. So, what could be the problem?

    Kind regards
    Tunc

    Hi Tunc

    In my opinion the activity of the CPU is not affected only by the software you use, but all activities. Many of these activities work constantly in the background and the works of CPU. Please don t forget that the processor is not the only source that produces a lot of heat. The graphics card is also responsible for the heat.

    As you know all the hardware components are placed side by side and it needs to be cooled correctly. On my Qosmio F20 cooling fan starts to run even if the download of some files is active.

    Believe me that there is no problem. You have a device of high technology with the latest hardware components and the unit must be cooled properly. I can recommend you to change method of cooling in electricity from the night before and put it in silent mode.

    Good luck!
