Satellite A300-202 - problems with alternating current

Hello

I bought a Satellite A300-202 a few months ago and I'm having intermittent problems with alternating current.

Sometimes I plug the AC power and it does not start (the led are off and windows says that it is on battery) charge. Other times, he is in charge and suddenly stops.

I suspected it might be the cord broken inside, but it seems to happen also when no one touches it. Usually, when it stops to load, I unplug the wall, wait a few seconds and plug in again, and it starts to load correctly never stop again.

Someone at - it had a similar problem? I wonder if is it possible to just replace the parts to AC power so I won't have to send the laptop for repair.

Thank you

Pedro

Hello

I've never had a problem with my Toshiba Chargers but an old non - Toshiba power adapter died after 6 months of use. After the replacement, it works without any problem.

I think you should check the update of the BIOS as mentioned by Akuma, but for me, it looks more like a problem with the AC adapter.
So if the BIOS update help t doesn't, the adapter should be checked permanently.

  • Satellite P100-202: problems with screen again

    Hi all! I write about a problem with the screen of my Toshiba P100-202. I recently posted in the thread "Satellite P100-202: screen will freeze" and my current problem is actually quite similar to what is explained in the thread "Satellite P100-119: display no longer works. Here is my story, hoping someone can help me avoid having to send the computer to a technician:
    I decided after my previous problem, get my screen replaced. Everything seemed fine, except on the occaisonal instances, especially when I was using the "Internet Explorer" program, in which the screen sort of will re-start, IE. everything went black for a few seconds (music, etc. However would continue) then (boom) everything should reappear, sometimes in ultra - zoom for a second or two. The computer (OS = Windows 7) would report "problem with NVIDIA graphics driver", and then the operations would continue normally. This happened several times, but not often, and I was not too worried about it. Then, a few days before, I was using the latest release candidate of Internet Explorer 9 and the screen is blacked out and my music has continued and I thought 'OK, no problem' and then after a few seconds, and then the music stopped (and I thought ' uh - oh ') and then the blue screen of death.
    OK, don't panic, reboot, but of course there is no word of welcome, no nothing, just a blank screen, with the backlight still works created a worrisome greyish tint. And then suddenly the mouse appears, followed by the entire screen, so I unwisely rejected the incident. Ten minutes later, same thing and this time, not even the blue screen of death as consolement, just gray nothingness.
    A few days of rest, a dusting of battery, but no, even if I think the operating system works very well (caps lock light work and little purrs and snoring occur as usual), he has no doubt about the fact that the screen is not working.
    PS Sorry if my message is too long, and no, I don't have access to an external display!

    While I'm at it, someone is able to explain why a battery lasting 25 minutes can take several hours or even days to recharge?

    Post edited by: trrttrry

    Unfortunately I can not offer a final solution or diagnosis, but I think you should test the functionality with the original recovery image (recovery DVD) you have with your laptop.

    Install the OS using this disc and test functionality. If the same thing happen over and over again there must be a hardware problem.
    If you need to bring the laptop to the service ask first how much cost repair. Maybe it will be too expensive and you can buy the new laptop instead of paying lots of money to repair this old model of laptop.

  • Satellite A300-1EG: problem with the touchpad after installing Windows 7

    Hello!

    I had a problem with my touchpad since I installed Windows 7 (64-bit version) on my laptop (Toshiba) A300-1EG.

    I tried many different solutions to this problem.
    I checked the alignment of the touchpad (be it on) in the BIOS, I tried to install several drivers (on a site of Synaptics, automatically by Windows) and none of these work. Of course, I tried FN + F9 key combination.
    When I check the alignment of the touchpad in the Control Panel, everything seems fine. It is written, that "device working properly.

    I have Toshiba Software, what may be the cause of the problem?
    But I have no idea where I can find something.

    I'd appreciate any help.

    I hope to be understandable - English is not my mother tongue :) Thank you very much in advance for any ideas. :)

    Hi mate

    I'm not quite sure what problem you have but you should first try to install the necessary drivers touchpad m.
    Maybe you used the wrong driver in the past

    So Sat A300-1EG belongs to the series of PSAG4E.
    The European driver Toshiba page does not provide a special touchpad driver for Win 7 for this device.

    But I noticed that Win 7 64 bit drivers touchpad (Alps & Synaptics) for Satellite L500 PSLS3E series is released on the European driver page.
    Try both drivers Touch Pad for this device and test it!

  • Satellite A300-1JJ, problems with Vista32

    Nice day
    I would apriciate if somebody help me.
    When I used Winxp32 had no problem, but when I installed Vista32 some problems appeared:

    (1) I can't use the multimedia buttons because I have an empty field in Toshiba assist-optimization-> Toshiba > buttons-> name of button. So, it shows me as there are no buttons at all. Version 1.1.14 VAP. I reinstalled 2 times. The second time I did it after installing the OS. But the name of the 'button' field is always empty.
    What should I do?

    (2) in Windows XP, I used Toshiba Power, utility so I could fix the multiplier of x6\x8\x10\x12 optimization perfomance\temperature\noise processor core. In this case the multiplier was constant and not changed (there is also possibility to use the multiplier changing, i.e. x 6 - x 8, x 10, x 12 6 - x 6 - x, but I used a fixed).
    Here in energy saving of Vista I have just minimum and maximum processing power in percentage. But really limit superior only set maximum State only, so I can't difficulty multiplier, but just so I get x 6 - x 8, x 6 - x 10 or x 6 - x 12, but x6\x8\x10\x12 not fixed. Should what program I use to fix it?
    The same problem with the fan controller. There are 3 fan-States in xp, but only 2 under Vista. Why?

    I don't understand why the laptop, which is designed for Vista has worst prospects for soft in the last in Winxp.

    Best regards

    Hello

    At first, I want to know how you installed Vista 32 bit.
    Have you installed with the Toshiba recovery image?

    The fact is that when you use recovery image all Toshiba tools and utilities will be installed properly and you will be able to use all the options including multimedia keys. Installation of VAP is the right solution, but I don't understand what the problem is here.

    On energy savings, I say follow: Toshiba Power Saver under Windows XP Home edition is not under Vista. Under WXP Toshiba has included more options for the power settings allow the best optimization. Vista is different and several power supply options are now controlled by Vista. Toshiba has included only several options to provide the best optimization.

    I use Vista und also power Toshiba, method of cooling in particular settings. I put it to the minimum and portable works really quiet.

    It has nothing to do with the possibilities for better or worse. Let's see how this will be done in Windows 7.

  • Satellite A300-202 - external display turned a strange color

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A300-202 with an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650 card and after upgrading vista to windows 7, my external screen turned a strange color, seems to lose the color red. Never see white color, which should show the white color of the Blue Watch.

    I uninstalled and installed again the graphic card drivers and update the new drivers but don t solved this problem. My external monitor it of ok because I tried with the other laptop and don't have this problem. I also tried my laptop with any other monitor and have the same problem.

    Someone already had this problem, someone who can help me?

    Thank you

    Hi Zagga,

    This means that this only happens on your external monitor or internal monitor too?

    You wrote on the new installation of display drivers so that the drivers that you have installed exactly? You should only take on the official website of Toshiba display drivers as they are pre-tested.
    Check this box!

    Also, make sure that this latest version of the BIOS is installed.

  • How to partition Satellite A300 - 21 H with Vista?

    Hello
    I have a Toshiba Satellite A300 - 21 H with Vista and dual you want to boot with ubuntu linux. At present, there are three partitions, recovery vista 1.5 GB, 150 GB C and 150 GB E (with recovery of HARD drive inside). My ubuntu, I would like to partitions / and / Home (about 150 GB). Should I delete the partition E? I have my recovery DVD's...

    What is the best approach, I think that linux is only 4 partitions.

    > Should I delete the partition E?
    If you created the recovery DVDs, you can remove HDDRecovery and use the second partition for Linux. When you want to install once again just use recovery media created Vista.

    If you change the structure of the partition, no doubt, you will not be able to use saved image in this folder.

    Satellite a300/y00 come with s-video output port?
    Where can buy the cable to this port, or I can buy anywhere or buy from toshiba dealer?

    Hello

    This seems to be an Australian series for Toshiba laptop so it was designed for the Australian market. I'm not very well if this series of portable supports the m s-video output port.
    The point is that there are different models A300 and the s-video output port has not been installed in all mobile phones of the A300.
    I found a manual and it says that the s-video, put it port depends on the model you have purchased.

    Usually, it should be placed on the left side between the vents and the output HDMI port. Check it out.
    If there is no s-video output port then the laptop does not support it.

    Good bye

  • Satellite A300 - GPU problem

    I have a toshiba satellite a300-15 with a non-integrated (ati mobility hd3650 512 MB) graphics card.

    Last night I did a reboot of my pc and since then during POST I can hear 3 beeps (one extended its follow-up shorter 2). The screen does not, but the windows 7 normally charge. I tried to connect it to an external lcd display, but nothing happened.

    I think my external gpu died.

    But before you do buy a refurbished or bake in the oven, I must be sure that it is not a motherboard problem. Is it possible that my motherboard has an integrated gpu, which means that after removing the ati hd3650 screen mobility should have lit (which do not have).

    Thank you

    can someone answer me if it is possible to operate my laptop without the dedicated graphics card? Is it possible that my motherboard (DABL5SMB6E0) also has an integrated gpu?

  • Satellite Pro C850 - problems with WiFi after Windows update 8.1

    Hello

    I was wondering if someone could give some advice on a problem I have.

    Had an adjustable C850 Pro for a few months and worked well on Windows 8.
    I myself am then harassed and intimidated by Microsoft Update in order to install Windows 8.1 and in a moment of weakness, I succumbed (got sick of the nagging).

    Since that time, my wifi is very intermittent; either I'm on another computer write this and the laptop is essentially not connected to the internet.

    For some reason any (although I didn't try it before), I can not connect via ethernet either, so I think it's probably the driver problems. (I also tried to connect the public wifi but fails).

    I tried to install the driver WiFi Toshiba 8.1 but that has not solved the problem.
    Then I noticed that I'm supposed to install a bunch of drivers in the order.

    Maximum setting to do it, but the first package (associated with bluetooth) said I have to remove the current driver... I try by "turning off", then "Uninstall" but 8.1 seems to re - install automatically and I don't know how to disable this option (I can try to delete the driver file, I guess, but I'm sure 8.1 covered too and will probably launch a drone to try me out ", if I do). *

    Any kind soul there suggestions on a way forward? Pls.

    I see in the instructions of Toshiba Windows Update 8.1 should I have uninstalled the drivers before the update, but there is not much I can do about it now. :(

    Hello

    > I don't see in the instructions of Toshiba Windows Update 8.1 should I have uninstalled the drivers before the update, but there is not much I can do about it now
    All your problems with the Windows 8.1 update related to the fact that you have not upgraded the Windows 8.1 system as recommended by Toshiba.

    Details:
    http://www.Toshiba.EU/innovation/generic/windows8_1-message/

    Solution?
    Back to Windows 8 (reset the system back to factory settings)
    Then, install all updates and patches for Windows 8 and follow along with the upgrade of system as described on the Toshiba Windows 8.1 upgrade page

    On the page of the Toshiba UE driver, you will find all the instruments that must be installed in the correct order and Windows 8.1 driver!

  • Satellite A300 cpu problem

    Hi all, I had a Satellite A300 under Vista 32 bit

    I posted in this forum earlier on my reboot loop problem
    (http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=77256&stqc=true)

    I finally found that my laptop is fine when it is in safe mode, or when running only on battery
    Once I plug the power that the loop comes back, I saw in another post that disable both processors in Device Manager can solve the problem, and it worked for me!

    However, I want to do a factory restore because my OS is corrupted badly enough (probably due to virus?), many services can not start and also access no internet

    Problem is when I do the factory recovery, the processor driver will probably settle at some point my laptop won't fall through the loop again and was never able to complete the recovery?

    I tried other OS like ubuntu, but problem still exist, so I don't know this isn't OS problem.

    So I would like to know:
    1. What is the difference of the CPU in operation mode/battery safe mode/AC only mode?
    2. What does the processor driver? What happens when I disabled it them?
    3. a way to set the CPU mode in the BIOS? (so I can keep the work process recovery) (I tried ' dynamic/always low' and disable "multi core processing", no help)

    I tried to fix my laptop for weeks, your help is very appreciated!

    > Problem is when I make the resumption of the factory, the processor driver will probably settle at some point my laptop won't fall through the loop again and was never able to complete the recovery?

    I think it will always be the case if you install the system using the recovery disc or own Ms.

    > 1. What is the difference of the CPU in operation mode/battery safe mode/AC only mode?

    First of all if you run the laptop computer is in safe mode, only some essential system process would load and many components non-essential are disabled.
    The processor supports also different modes (C1, C2, C3) in order to save energy for energy savings
    Each CPU has multiple power modes, and they are collectively called States C or C-modes.

    > 2. What makes the processor driver? What happens when I disabled it them?
    Its a driver essential system. Unless the driver of the CPU, the system does not recognize the CPU correctly and the processor cores.

    > . Any way to set the CPU mode in the BIOS? (so I can keep the work process recovery) (I tried ' dynamic/always low' and disable "multi core processing", no help)

    The CPU seems to be the troublemaker and I think that it should be replaced

  • Satellite C40D-C - problems with the system

    I recently bought an a toshiba satellite C40D-C Series notebook PC as my old satellite - essentially - is dying. After you connect to the internet, I tried to download AVG Antivirus on my computer that I don't have - and never - trust McAfee anti-virus that comes with the computer. Every time downloaded AVG then restart my computer, the computer goes directly into the automatic repair system and doesn't let me do anything but to reset or restore. This has happened even with completely removed McAfee. I've been on AVG directly today (January 15), and they have to do remote set-up for me - with the same results. Yes, I'm aware that McAfee is a selfish cry of a system and refuses to acknowledge any other antivirus, but that this issue happens even with completely removed McAfee shows clearly that it is something that Toshiba has worked in the system. I can't even disable the automatic repair tool. I have to be stuck with a McAfee antivirus which, moreover, does not yet or is Toshiba will make an effort to help solve a problem they caused?

    Why this computer isn't allowing AVG Antivirus work? And why, after each attempt to download AVG, the computer goes to auto repair whenever I shut down or restart? Is this a problem with the system or something, Toshiba has done on purpose?

    I have a problem with my (pspa6e) Satellite P100-347

    After about 10 minutes of play time with games like battlefield 2, the SIMS2 and so on... my pc stops...
    I knew it was close because of high gpu or cpu temp...

    I felt that my laptop was warm, but after playing for a while its normal...

    So I installed HWmonitor to check my gpu, CPU and disk hard temp...

    That's what I show:

    GPU: turn 85 stable - 90.C
    This normal use... no games...

    HARD DRIVE: 39.C

    Something must be wrong! GPU temp is too high?
    I tried a fresh install of the OS...

    Thnx for all the help and answers!
