• Re: Satellite M60-188 - battery won't charge

  Hello

  I recently received a Satellite M60 and this morning when I plugged back the charger the battery indicator in the taskbar has shown a full battery when there was in fact only 4% left. And sudenly my computer stopped after a few minutes bipping because the battery is low.

  It's my second Satellite (the other was aM70 and I changed the battery and the charger of the M70, but the problem remains the same) and now with my M60, it seems to be exactly the same problem (I only got the M60 for two weeks), I don't understand how the battery may already be damaged after 2 weeks.

  If anyone can help me, thanks

  Hello

  I guess that your new laptop Satellite M60 was not new and it s a laptop second hand. Then the battery and the adapter AC Lentivirales, second hand, coins, or you use the Satellite M70?

  However, I think that your battery is simply defective and must be replaced. If your laptop works with the AC adapter plugged there should not be a problem with the motherboard I think but a laptop technician can check this

• No power to Satellite A30 PSA30E

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A30 (part No. = PSA30E-00E5-EN) laptop and recently when plugged in, the battery is not, in fact he tell Chargers.

  When the laptop is turned off, if you plug the battery icon orange lights and charges of battery, but when you start the laptop to halfway through start orange icon battery turns off and the battery won't charge.

  If you start the laptop just using the battery once it is in place and ongoing enforcement if you plug the nothing happening for example the battery charge orange icon does not illuminate.

  The power is always on the laptop the screen stays on its setting of intensity, but the laptop turns off when the battery runs down to 0%.

  I removed the battery and tried power the laptop just using the power grid, but the laptop does not turn on.

  I got a new power adapter and it does not solve the problem and I even bought a new battery for your laptop but the problem still exists

  The only thing I found on the internet is that the connector where the connector plug AC power adapter will has known problems, but I can't find anyone who has a solution on how to fix it.

  Any ideas how to solve all the other ideas what wrong?

  > I have a new power adapter and it does not solve the problem and I even bought a new battery for your laptop but the problem still exists

  If the new battery and new AC adapter didn't solve this problem, then I think his untimely motherboard.
  Eventually it s power supply electronic malfunction or a similar problem.

  I doubt that you can remedy. In this case (in the worst case) the motherboard needs to be replaced and it would be a costly affair.

  What to say to boyfriend. I think that you could get in touch with the local ASP in order to test the motherboard or related parts.
  Then you should get more details abut the question and what parts are affected.

• My laptop is plugged in, but the battery won't charge

  Hello

  In the last two months, capability of my laptop to charge its battery has degraded.
  She went to a battery completely (100%), not being able to load beyond 98% and then 66% and 30%, and now finally, it says "0% availability (plugged in, charge)", but it never increases support.

  Thus, the laptop works when plugged into the charger, but does not illuminate when it is attached only on the battery.

  I rebooted the computer several times - first to stop the machine, then unplug it, remove the battery, press and hold the Start button for a minute, then put the battery back, plug the charger in and rebooting the machine.

  I installed updates for "Stacks" (IE. Microsoft AC adapter, compatible ACPI Microsoft control method battery and battery Composite Microsoft) in Device Manager.
  I also uninstalled the Microsoft ACPI complaint method stack and shutdown and restarted the laptop several times.

  Earlier I called Toshiba support and update the BIOS of 1.50 to 1.70, then restarted the computer, but yet again, the battery won't charge.

  I bought a new battery, which showed that it was fully charged when when I have attached to my laptop, but when exhausted 0% load, I got the same message as for the other battery: "0% availability (plugged in, load).

  I am really puzzled. If not, how can I try to increase the capacity of my laptop battery?

  In my opinion, old battery was certainly defective.
  Is your new original battery, Toshiba battery or any part of third-party product?

  When you start Notepad without battery and put in place when Windows is loaded does the problem persist?

• Satellite A30 PSA30E - BIOS does not recognize the HARD drive

  Hi all
  I have a Satellite A30 (PSA30E) and I start the computer. When I enter the BIOS it does not recognize the hard drive.
  Does anyone no what I can do?
  Is it possible to restore the BIOS?

  Thank you

  Hello

  You replaced the HARD drive by a new one or the BIOS don't recognize the old HDD?

  Usually if the laptop is not able to start and that the BIOS does not see the old HDD then I guess that the HARD drive is faulty.
  If the BIOS doesn't recognize the inserted new HARD drive and then either you ve bought is not compatible, or the size of the HARD drive is just too big.

  Please provide more info. You see error messages?

  Hello

  Don't forget to turn off the computer - remove the a/c power - then remove the battery
  and check to see if any corrosion on the contacts. If so try to clean
  with a pencil eraser. Check with Dell Support and Forums for methods more.

  Check with Support from Dell, their online documentation, diagnostics, drivers, and ask
  Dell forums about known issues. Some manufacturer issued BIOS and other updates
  for help with battery problems.

• Satellite L500 - battery won't charge

  Hello

  I had a problem last week - my laptop (Satellite L500) works well on alternating current, but the icon shows "plugged in, not load ' and the battery charge is at 0%. So if I remove the outgoing cable it runs immediately. Lighting load LED on the front of the battery is not more.

  Laptop is a little more than two years, but works well, everything original Toshiba (battery and charger). I had noticed recently that the battery life was not what it was when lappy was new, but it lasted at least 45 minutes or more, so I knew the battery was endangered, but it is hard to believe it's just failed when two weeks ago could load and run OK?

  Any ideas?

  See you soon,.
  Rebecca

  > so I knew the battery was on the exit door but find it's hard to think he's just failed when two weeks ago could load and run OK?

  I think that nothing is impossible, that it means that the battery could be defective.
  Of course, it is my personal opinion, but I see only two possibilities: either its battery problem or motherboard problem.

  So if I was you, I would check if the problem persists with a new battery tested.

  By the way: you can also view this short work around:
  -disconenct the battery and ac adptor
  -Press the button power (30-40 seconds long)
  -connect the battery and AC adapter and turn on the device
  -to check if the battery can be charged.

• Satellite Pro L500: amber flashing indicator - battery won't charge

  When power charge light blinks yellow.
  Battery does not charge and if the battery has been removed the laptop stops.

  When this problem does not occur.

  In addition, when the power cord is removed, battery charge for a few moments then yellow flashing lights and load stops. When the stop, the battery charges normal and 100% charged battery gives almost 4 hours of time.

  Can you please guide on the problem. Is the power supply problem? or the battery? or the card mother/material?

  How to check the problem?

  It seems that you already posted a similar topic topic with your laptop a few years ago.
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=63225

  In the first case, it seems that your battery was the troublemaker.

  You are talking about charging light. I m not very well what LED it should be.
  There are 5 LEDs - from left: DC IN / power / battery / HDD, ODD / Bridge Media Slot

  The first DC IN indicator lights green when power is form adapter correctly provided HQ. However, if the output voltage of the AC adapter is abnormal or if power outages computers, this LED will turn off.

  The second left power led lights green when the laptop is turned on. If turn you the phone mode standby, this indicator flashes orange.

  The third battery indicator show the conditions of the accusation of pulp. Green indicates that the battery is fully charged, orange indicates the battery is charging and orange blinking indicates a low battery level.

  Question:
  Are you able to turn on the unit without the battery, but using only an adapter connected?
  Usually, this should be possible even if the battery isn't inserted.

• Battery won't charge properly on a Satellite A series

  Hello

  I still have a problem with my battery.
  First of all my original battery is damaged.
  The computer showed first 100% load and a minute later it was zero. So I thought, ok my battery is damaged.

  I buyed a new. Now I have installed the battery, a few days ago, and my battery is only at 60% load.
  Is it possible, that my charger in laptop computer is damaged?

  The battery must be charged in an hour I think. That would be good.
  Someone know a problem like this?

  Oxford

  Hello

  > The battery must be charged in an hour I think. That would be good.
  This is not correct in general charge time depends on the laptop model and the battery. But usually it takes more than an hour at full load.
  Check your manual. It should be mentioned on the battery charge time.

  In your case, I'll try to load and discharge the battery several times and then check the status of the battery.

• Satellite X 200-battery will not charge

  Hello

  I have a Satellite X 200 for 2.5 years now, and now that my I just noticed that my battery will also charge the driving battery is not on. I turned off the computer and opened it again and I noticed the battery led turns on for like 3 seconds then goes back again.
  Is this a vista problem, a problem of battery or motherboard?

  Because with the ca on the laptop works very well. Any ideas how to make sure that if it a battery issue?

  Thank you

  Hi blackmodjo,

  What happens if you connect the AC/DC adapter, while the laptop is turned off? The battery will be charged or not?

  If this isn't the case, it seems to be a malfunction of the battery. It s already 2.5 years that you wrote and the battery can be charged only up to 500 times. After that, it must be replaced.

  New battery should t be so expensive. Just ask a service provider allowed in your country, and guys will help you to get a new one.

• Satellite L655-13V - battery does not charge

  And when I connect the battery only work on computer, and when I connect the AC/DC adapter only without battery the computer works also.

  But when I connect the battery and plugged to the AC/DC battery adapter not charging and give me this status: "plugged in, does not support".

  Please, help me to overcome this problem.

  Hello

  Leave the AC adapter plugged into the laptop for a longer period of time.
  In many cases, the battery may not start to demand immediately, as his deeply discharged.
  In this case the adapter must be connected to the laptop for a long period of precharge the battery, then the battery should start loading as usual.
