• Satellite A30-414 turn off randomly

  Hi, I'm new here. I own this Satellite A30-414. It works well, but it turns off randomly. I explain.

  I might use it for non-stop days, it works well, but sometimes it empties and turns off. Then it always turns on the second attempt. I mean, after the stop, I turn it on, I see the MESSAGE, then it turns off again. The second time I turn it on it goes OK and starts Windows XP Pro SP3. There is no particular action, I do it turns off, it can happen any application at any time. As I said, it can stay for days, connected to the internet via wifi or lan, download P2P stuff, no problem not turn off.

  I thought it was the temperature because it's warm enough, so I run it on a laptop computer have lower airflow, not at all, it turns off randomly anyway. Maybe I'm thniking more heating unsoldered some brazing under BGA chips, so it might need a redistribution of some chips, maybe the graphics chip

  Can you help me please?

  Thanx

  Hi satiropan,

  > I thought it was the temperature because it's warm enough, so I run it on a laptop computer have lower airflow, not at all, it turns off randomly anyway.
  Such an external Notebook Cooler will not help you solve this problem. The internal cooling fan is designed and tested for this laptop and everything will work perfectly even on high usage. External cooling is not necessary.

  It's old enough laptop model, so I imagine that a lot of dust blocking the cooling fan. Therefore, clean it with a jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans. The exact procedure is described here:

• 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.

  See you soon

• Satellite A30 - portable computer turns off

  Hello
  Ive hada satellite a30 for about 2 years now.
  A few weeks ago, I reformatted the laptop and now whenever I watch a DVD after that 30 minutes, the laptop turns off and then used charging for a while.
  In my view, it is an overheating problem but im not sure what is causing it or how to fix it.
  Anyone has any suggestions would be accepted greatifully.
  Sincere greetings

  Hello

  Well, of course, it could be an overheating problem. If the temperature drops to the critical limit for the operating system stops the unit. It is a thermal protection of the portable Toshiba.
  Well, the overheating problem is a very serious problem. I recommend to check for dust cooling fans. Try to clean it with the vacuum cleaner.

  Good bye

• Satellite P30 seems to completely charge the battery only when the unit is turned off completely

  Hi, I have my Toshiba Satellite p30 and only works on battery. This unit operate on sector or only on the battery as after the period of time go down the warning, then closes. The orange light fades in and out, but seems that it will only fully charge when the unit is turned off completely.

  I only just received this unit so bit of a novice.

  MASH

  Hello

  normally, the battery should always charge until it is full when the power is connected.
  If you have an orange light flashes, it means that something is wrong. Maybe your battery is faulty or something else. This should be checked by a technician.

  Good bye

• Satellite A30 554 will turn off by itself.

  My Satellite A30 554 for a reason any began to turn off on its own after working for a while or even during startup. This happens both in Win XP and SUSE 10.0. I used the CD recovery to format the entire hard drive and reinstall the system and even during this computer just turned off, so it's sort of a problem material I think. Suddenly, this thing started to happen as early as last week. I have also had problems with before starting - just get a black screen instead of system startup, but usually remove the battery and put the rank or start once helped. Computer two years ago, and I think the warranty is over. What may be the cause of the problem and what can I do now to solve?

  Hello

  Sometimes the notebooks closed because of overheating problems. There are a few reasons why units overheat. One of the reasons is the Sales cooling fans. Fans don property t work because of dust inside the laptop. In this case, I recommend to check the ventilation openings and clean it. You can use the vacuum to suck up dust.

• Satellite Pro A100 PSAACE just cut off completely

  Everything was in working order last night. Today when I tried to use my laptop in the University, after awhile the laptop just cut off completely (not 'window stops', literally just cut off). At this point I noticed was the charge indicator not illuminated.

  So I checked that it was in the form correctly and everything was connected, who he was, but still no joy. I think it is maybe that my charger is dead on me.
  But I'm not positive, as when I remove the battery and reinsert it, the "power connection" comes on, even if the charge light.
  I could put my laptop then reinsert the battery, but it would be cut at random (probably because she have relatively no power left in it).

  Does anyone know if that means anything?
  When it is on, but not connected to a power supply when you move the battery icon... He thought it was still connected to a power source (if I had the power cord in or out of the laptop).

  Sorry if this seems obvious to some, just I would prefer not to buy a new charger to see that there is a problem with the socket on the back of my laptop, or a problem with the laptop battery etc. If you unplug your laptop, then remove and reinsert the battery, it lights the led "connection voltage?

  Hope to hear some reviews soon, that could help me cope with my laptop troubles.

  Thanks for reading,

  Hello

  Simply put your laptop turns off automatically. Is this good?

  Well, for me it sounds a little like the laptop stopped automatically to prevent material damage due to a temperature high.
  Perhaps this was caused due to overheating.

  This can occurs if the modules of cooling don t work properly and can not cool with a maximum return. Generally, this is related to dust and debris blocking the cooling fans.

  This happened to me too many times there... I cleaned the cooling fan using a jet of compressed air and it helped.

  Maybe you should check this too...

• Satellite A30 heats and turns off automatically

  Hello
  I love my computer laptop satellite A30 with part number as PSA30E. Recently, it has developed a problem. the laptop GET closes after a bit of time if connect us the power supply external source.but the work of the laptop very well if the battery is fully charged. It is not warmed up quickly because it works with the external power supply. However I noticed that the machine gets very hot after a short time, then the pc stops automatically. is that someone can help me please...

  Hi stephanie,.

  This soundslike a case of overheating caused by the heat sink of the CPU obstruction with dust and lint sucked up by the cooling fans. You will find this described in the following link:
  http://www.irisvista.com/tech/laptops/ToshibaA35/satellite-A35-fixing-overheating.htm

  You will find that it is easier to use a vacuum cleaner pipe placed on the grids of air intake based on your laptop computer, since it is very effective and doesn't involve any dismantling of you A30.

  Kind regards

• Satellite A30: when the adapter is connected the battery stops charging

  Using a Satellite A30 about three years. Recent problem is that while the power adapter is plugged the battery stops in charge, the orange battery indicator turns off.

  If you look at the power management utility battery poweer bed On Line, % of discharge meter

  So he can load either, I have to turn the machine off (completely or to hibernate) then remove the power cable and reintegrate them, then the battery light turns on. When restart the battery will begin charging for a while, and then for no apparent reason in defence start.

  If left reaches 0% battery - the machine continues to operate when the power cable is connected so its power do ok, but of course starts to beep when it goes below 10%. To get it going again, I need to stop and restart etc.

  I have checked the bios and have the latest version.

  I cleaned around the outlet heat exchanger and deleted all the fluff.

  I use a generic adapter that the original does not, but as far as I can tell its working normally.

  All thoughts

  Hi Richard,

  Your problem is caused by a bad connection where the power adapter is connected to the Jack at the back of your laptop. A slight movement of the cable causes a momentary loss of contact and electronics of management power in Notepad is deceived into beleiving that the battery is no longer available, in which case when the battery goes out and the laptop will return to the battery power even if the AC adapter is connected. As you have already discovered, turn off the laptop will be all back to normal.

  I have experienced the same situation with my A30-141 and have not yet found one solution other than to resort to power off the laptop computer, but I managed to avoid the problem occurs by pinching the cable ca at the back of the laptop so that there is no risk of power do not connect the bending in order to trigger the problem in the first place. This has been a remarkable success to date, and I didn't have a problem for several months now.

  Obviously, it is not a "cure" for the problem but the frustration it causes.

  Kind regards

• Satellite A30 - shuts down during the installation of recovery or FDISK

  I have a Satellite A30 and I wanted all off it delete and start from scratch.

  Turned back with disc 1 CD product recovery, started well I was prompted to insert disk 2, it does well to about 80% then erased screen, then got the message "invalid partition table". I tried again and same thing happened. Connected FDISK back and chose option 1. 'create a DOS Partition or logic back drive' and the laptop stops. I put the startup option for no network or HARD drive CD player. At startup without inserted discs, I get the following. PXE - E61 madia tset failure, check cable.
  PXE - m0f: exit PXE ROM then freezes.

  Anyone have any ideas?

  I'm not sure at 100%, but from your description, I think that HARD drive get in trouble.
  How pxe message shows that means laptop can not find device bootable and as last it will boot from LAN.

  If possible, try to get a new HARD drive and check if the recovery procedure completes successfully. Old IDE hard drives are not more expensive. To test you can also use a used purposes, but of course has no HDD vice.

• Satellite A30: For those inventive keyboard problem

  Hello

  My problem is that I spilled juice on my Satellite A30. Since MN then. keys on the keyboard do not respond. I think it has to do with the fact that the juice having disappeared left a sort of insulation under the buttons. I wonder if anyone can advise me on the following:

  1. How can I remove the keyboard off Satellite A30? The manual does not give an indication on it.

  2. is it possible to remove faulty buttons, clean the surface below them and put back them without any problem? I heard that once removed laptop keyboard buttons cannot be placed back correctly.

  3 should. what solution I use to clean the remains of juice? My only idea is to use some sort of soapy solution.

  4 wouldn't be allright just to put the keyboard without removing faulty buttons in a solution and keep it for a while until all the juice remains are taken away? The keyboard let completely dry and replace in place? Or, maybe there is a way to disassemble the keyboard in order to break the circuit so that it can be cleaned without worries?

  I hope you people help me get through this question cause I don't want to spend a fortune on a new keyboard, as people in the service center possibly won't bother to clean up my keybard and will just get away with ordering a new.

  OK, thanks for your ideas and consideration.

  Hello

  If the buttons just does not have the "n" and am ' ones, then you may be able to clean adequately without the need to disassemble your A30.

  First, you need to remove the covered buttons involved. To do this gently prising upward from the bottom edge of each button (use the SPACEBAR as a rest for a small flat blade so that you can lift buttons up. Once the keys are deleted (not to lose) you will be able to see the cantilever spring mechanism that makes electrical contact when you press it. Carefully clean the area with a small cotton swab (or even a small brush) and a lot of alcohol isoproyl (or an electrical contact, cleaning solution). I hope that this will restore the normal operation of the keys.

  To replace the top key locate top edge first and lower aid in position and apply progressive pressure the bottom of the key top until your feel/hear a 'click '.

  If all else fails, then you need to replace the keyboard, but fortunately, they are not too expensive (about £65 I remember well).

  Good luck

  Hello

  your Satellite A30 - 151 built in a softwaremodem with an Askey chipset (Agere).

  I think the solution is to re-download the modem driver and test.

  Go to http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/

  and click on Download & Driver.

  After downloading, you will need to unzip the file and start the installation. Another way to install the driver is the .inf. file, go to the Control Panel, system, hardware and Device Manager. Then go into the question mark that is the modem, and tell the driver. Here you have to choose to do it manually and when the wizard you asks to search for the file, go to the folder driver and click the file inf. complete the wizard and the pilot should work

• 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! :)

• Cannot access internet sites - Satellite A30-92

  I have a laptop Satellite A30 - 92.

  Suddenly I'm unable to access most of the internet sites. Can I use it fine at high speed and on the LAN, but using the dial up, no.
  I can dial my ISP very well, but it will not download web page. Oddly enough I can get some (but very few sites), but above all no that I looked at the Device Manager and the modem works fine. Looking at the ports I have a ltp printer port, but no com port doesn't appear.

  This could be the cause and how to fix? Thank you.
  I must say I checked the firewall and even turned off.

  Must the connection by modem specific DNS and Proxy settings? Call them and find out.

  If you are using IE, try to disable Protected Mode.

  Or maybe just try another browser such as FireFox.
