• Re: Satellite A30 - battery starts to unload if the power is connected

  Hi all

  My Toshiba laptop Satellite A30-871 began to discharge the battery while the power is connected (the LED shows that AC is connected but laptop consumes the battery power instead of loading battery and the use of current alternative). When the laptop achieved 0% battery turns off. Remove the power plug and reconnect do not resolve the problem, while the computer is turned on, only computer shutdown will begin the battery takes over. Which means that I can use portable so that battery retains some powers. Sometimes, when the laptop is turned off and the battery is charging, battery charging LED starts to blink and I have to remove the power plug and plug back.

  I don "t think it's a bad power connector because the witness indicates the power is connected.

  I wonder if anyone has a solution for me.

  Kind regards
  Nova

  Hello

  Just a question; does the laptop functions and using only the AC adapter (without the battery)?

  If Yes, then I guess that the problem might be related to battery failure.
  Maybe a new battery could solve this problem, but as you know this is just a suggestion

• Satellite A30 161 does not work when the battery is installed

  Hello

  I have a problem with my Satellite A30-161. The laptop works perfectly without the battery installed. With the battery installed and the AC adapter plugged the power supply and battery (light orange) are turned on.

  When turn on/off, as soon as WXP loaded the battery light turns off and the laptop turns off. With battery only laptop does not start. There is no dirt on the heat sink and it doesn't seem to be a problem with the connector DC and power lights still on.

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  This behavior is not easy to give an accurate diagnosis, but according to your description, I assume that there is a problem of electronic power supply. Just using special diagnostic tool, it is possible to check if there is a problem serious.

  To be honest, I don't think you can do it alone. The only thing you can try is to test it with new battery. Maybe you should contact the service authorized in your country. talk with them and you will see what they say.

• Satellite A30 - where and how to order the recovery disk

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A30 range and I'm about to install a new hard drive but I don't have the original recovery disk. I told myself I can are no longer met this Toshiba directly so I wonder if someone can direct me looking for a replacement of original or copy.

  I Googled it but it is difficult to sift through to find the exact one I'm looking for.

  Thank you

  Hmm. I thought you can order the recovery CD Toshiba of the ASP in your country but if the series of laptop it is too old it would not be possible.

  However, you can also install the Windows operating system by using the Microsoft CD and then you could install the driver of Toshiba of the Toshiba driver page.
  XP driver should be placed in the box ARCHVE.

• Satellite A30 XP latest drivers - found on the Site of Toshiba Canada

  RE: Toshiba Satellite A30 XP drivers

  After several days of trying all the drivers on the Tosh Europe site and get errors, I found the latest Satellite A30 for XP drivers on the Tosh Canada site.

  http://209.167.114.38/support/download/files_downloads/index/satellite/sa33en.htm

  Hello

  Usually, a common driver installation procedure should get the modem to life.
  The installation is very easy. Most of the time you must only start the installation file, but you can also try to install the driver from the Device Manager.
  There is also an option to roll back the driver. That you can use if you have installed a modem not compatible or bad driver.

• Satellite A30 - battery discharges when connected to the network

  Hello

  I hope someone can help me!
  I have a Toshiba Satellite A30. He has recently started to discharge the battery when it is connected to and running off, the sector. If the screen icon shows current alternative (mode full power), but the % of the battery decreases by 5% per minute.

  The battery on the laptop light is off. If I turned off the pc, the light will go orange, load. When I restart, it stays orange for a few seconds, then turns off again.

  Is this a problem with the battery or load main, or something else? Please help, this is driving me crazy, that I keep having to turn it off to recharge!

  Thank you very much

  I think battery is responsible for this. Satellite A30 is old enough laptop model, so I guess the battery is the best.
  Remove the battery and check the label of the battery. You will find the exact reference. using this part number, you can order new battery for your laptop satellite.

• Satellite A30 921: XP does not detect the Firewire IEEE 1394 port

  I have a satellite A30 921.
  There I link port aswell. My problem is that im trying to connect my camcorder dv via I LINK and this is the first time since I bought this laptop. But XP won't dectecting it.

  Can someone help me on this problem?

  Hmm, it seems that the satellite A30 921 supports really 4pol IEEE1334 Firewire/iLink interface. Therefore, it should be possible to connect your external camcorder without big problems.

  May I ask if you are using Win XP with SP2 preinstalled?
  You should do it.

  AFAIK the SP2 contains a bug which has affected the firewire port.
  But it has been resolved with the additional patch. Check this box:

  + * Performance of 1394 devices may decrease after you install Windows XP Service Pack 2 * +.
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/885222

  I also recommend to check the firewire port in Device Manager.
  It would be desirable to remove it from the list of Device Manager, then restart the laptop for reinstalling the port once more.

• Satellite A30: PXE - E61 media test check the cable failure

  OK got this message on a cell phone of friends
  Others have played with him and made it worse, and now I received the laptop to try and fix.

  When you start to get

  If his tent to boot from the local network instead of the hard drive I have reset bios by default I disabled everything when I F12 boot to hard drive get the error message rΘation and one at a time, that nothing works even when I try to disable lan starts, he tries always to.

  When I try to install from disk backup it is hard disk not found, but in the bios the hard drive is located and can not boot from it.

  I tried with winxp pro disc to try not to get an OS on the laptop any partition to the OS but a blue screen with an error 0 x 00000050 CrashFree disk gives error 1170 if I remember correctly.

  I can't update the bios with new version because she needs windows, I can't stop the lan because there is no setting in the bios very minimul with about 4 useful settings in it.

  Is the hard drive turned or is this a bug in the bios that it detects drive hard, but does not assign a letter properly?

  If I try the recovery console in xp Setup there is no disk to read or write, if I maps the drive in recovery only the cd/dvd rom found no hard drive.

  Any help would be great thank you because I don't know what to do, I don't think that the hard drive is shot myself but maybe if I can get a laptop and try the hard drive what she will say if it is or not, but for now I'm stuck with no. had to go.

  1. cdrom out and replaced plugs
  2. Jack hard drive out and replaced
  3 took Ram out and replaced

  Hello Shoah

  You did what I would recommend.
  I remember what one of my friends has had a similar problem on an A200. But after the BIOS reset by default, he was able to install the OS from the recovery CD.

  The whole is very mysterious. It looks like a HARD disk failure, but the HARD drive is recognized in the BIOS. But have you checked the HARD disk in other laptop or computer?
  You can try to connect the HARD disk via the external USB HDD controller and could check if it s ok and could format.

  I recommend also to remove the CD/DVD drive and the HARD drive, then set the BIOS to default settings immediately (don't forget to save changes). Then try to power upward without the HARD disc and the drive.
  To my knowledge, you should get an error message.
  Then stop the laptop and put both the device in Notepad. Then go to BIOS and check if both devices are properly recognized.

  Finally, I must say that I don't know if my proposal will help m.
  If she won't help, you will need to contact an ASP in your country, because it really looks like a serious problem.

  Good luck

• Re: Blank screen on Satellite A200-1 body weight after flashing the Bios

  I have a Satellite A200-1 of body weight, and I flashed my Bios when the laptop froze.
  So I had to restart now, the screen does not light.

  Any help on what to do?
  Do I need a new toshiba Bios Chip?

  I have a Satellite A210 - 16G and I decided to the new version of BIOS (2, 00-WIN32) flash. I downloaded the new version, the decompressed files two (setup.exe and alaa200a.rom), quit all running programs and disconnected from the internet and launch the setup.exe.

  After a program window apperared and it starts automatically check my bios version (strange thing - cooler system started working with maximum RPM) and after 5-10 seconds, this window became blink and at the top, there was a message 'no response '.

  I thought that it is ok and I expect about 15 minutes for a result...
  But I suck. I closed the window and tried to restart, but suddenly I got a white screen.

  I disabled a camputer in now the power button / stop.
  And after that I can depend on to it - I press the power button, then a power led lights and that's all, blinking screen, no response.

• Satellite C855-1j4j does not turn on - the Bios Update interrupted

  Hello

  I did the update on my laptop Satellite C855-14 days, and all of a sudden the power went out,
  now the pc running either party but not nothing DON'T get PAST...

  What should do?

  + The message was edited: message has already been translated.

  From my point of few the EPROM module must be re-flashed once more with special BIOS crisis recovery disk.

  Usually, this procedure could be done only by authorized service provider available in your country.

  But I found an interesting announcement about how to flash the BIOS on U400 series.
  See the last post [here: http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=62852]

  But I don't very well if this info would be useful and if it would work in your laptop to Mr. However, in case this would not work, contact the ASP from Toshiba for help

• Satellite Pro C660 bricked by update of the BIOS that failed

  My sister asked me to update his laptop (Toshiba Satellite Pro C660-16N; The part number PSC0ME-01S00SEN) of Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit) of Windows 8 (64-bit).
  So I did.

  Then I went UK from Toshiba Web site to check if there are any drivers I had to install for Windows 8. The only one was an update of the BIOS (for BIOS v1.70). I don't know what was the previous BIOS version number.

  So I run the update application in Windows 8. Phoenix WinPhlash Technologies starts and then in the middle of the update, everything freezes.

  The trackpad would not move the cursor or anything like that. I had no choice but to disconnect the phone from the wall and remove the battery. The laptop is not under warranty.

  Of course, now it won't turn. It will beep once when I press the power button, but the system does not light. A few minutes later, it looks like one long beep and two short beeps. It then keeps repeating this sequence every two minutes "one long beep, 2 short beeps".

  I google and read the site after the blog after the post on the forum, but nothing works. Links to the software offered on these forums/blogs/Web sites in french are usually dead, so I can't try what they suggest.

  The most common solution is the Phoenix crisis recovery tool. I managed to download v1.0.0.4 which is supposed to allow me to make a bootable USB key. The version of this tool that I downloaded is supposed to be for a Lenovo ThinkPad X 200. I have the correct BIOS.rom to C660 Pro Satellite (I renamed BIOS.wph and copied to the appropriate folder).

  I followed all the instructions, but it doesn't seem to work. Some sites say if it happens, I have the wrong version of phlash16.exe. Some other sites say that HP Boot Disk USB Utility should be used, but I don't know how to use it.

  What I really need, is a definitive step by step foolproof guide to know what to do, with links to the files/tools to use for this model of laptop. I will follow this blindly (which I don't really understand what makes each step, I just do it with no understanding,) so if anyone can help me with this, please write a guide like an idiot!

  If anyone can help me with this, I appreciate it. I'm really in a difficult situation - I can't really afford to pay a Toshiba ASP to fix it, and I can't afford a new laptop certainly. But I also couldn't bring myself to tell my sister, ' it's broken, deal!

  Thanks in advance.
