Satellite A300 has red pixels instead of black

My recently purchased Toshiba Satellite has a problem with its display (or graphics). It has type III Pixel defect (red subpixel is constantly on) and so something black comes black and Red (verticle lines). Unlike other cases on the net, the pixels stuck on the entire screen, not just a small area or pixel.

Is the problem in the screen material or graphics hardware?
Is - fixable?

Thank you

Hello!

You can have up to 6 type of pixel 3 failure and if you have more then the display will change to an ASP.

It's not easy to tell if it s a display or problem of graphics cards, but you can connect the laptop to an external monitor and if you have the same problem, it s question an LCD.

So, or so, you should go to your local ASP and check your laptop.

The most recent graphics driver and BIOS you?

Good bye

    Hello Teresah

    I wonder really after that 10 months you did nothing to solve this power plug the question.
    Why don't you contact the nearest Toshiba authorized service provider? I guess that laptop has guaranteed valid and these issues can be fixed for free.

    Be careful with this stuff power and contact the service as soon as possible. I don't know where you live but the complete list of all authorized Toshiba service providers you can find on the Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > download & support > find an ASP.

    With the service guys, you can also discuss abut all other issues you mentioned in this announcement.
    I am also owners A300 and use my laptop about a year now. I use my laptop every day for my work and it runs more than 8 hours a day. So far, I did not notice any hardware or software problem. I ve defined the parameters of power management the balanced diet combined with the minimum level set in the cooling method option. Laptop runs quiet and, at the same time, has enough power for my daily activities as Internet, office applications and Skype.

    It is not easy to say what the problem with your laptop, but I recommend you contact the closest service Toshiba and to clarify these issues.

    Good luck.

  • Satellite A300 - Ticking noise all trying to load

    Hello

    Recently my satellite A300 has started to make a quiet ticking / clicking noise when it loads with the laptop battery is running. The noise is coming from the inside of the laptop and if I put the charger "brick" to my ear, I hear a noise inside than in in sync with the sound of ticking.

    Battery does not charge while the laptop is running (but clicking on icon battery says plugged in, load), the battery tends to remain some fees his establishment. If I turn off the coast, it will charge up to 100% and for the use of the laptop, then everything using it with 100% load without ticking noise is present.

    I guess it's a problem with the distribution of energy within the laptop. Does anyone have experience of this type of problem or suggestions about how I might solve this problem?

    Thank you

    Hey,.

    I agree with the user above. It seems to be a problem if t AC adapter, you may notice the problem without adapter.

    If you contact an authorized service provider, you can order a new power adapter. An alternative you can ask the technicians if they also say that this problem s adapter an AC or not.

  • Satellite A300-Y00 black screen but the fan from

    I bought a TOSHIBA satellite A300/Y00 in June 2008 – 16 months. Model number PSAGOA-02Y. After ten months he did not start suddenly. It sounds like the processor and the fan starts but the screen and the led underneath the screen was all black. I tried to connect it to an external monitor, but the screen was too black. I gave her to Toshiba for 2 weeks (!) who said it was the motherboard. They replaced for free that it was still under warranty.

    A few weeks ago the same thing happened again. I turned off it and for some reason at random, he started as usual a few hours later. I called Toshiba to say that, in my view, that computer will crash soon again. They said that they will be able to take it in for service, but if they could not find anything wrong with it that they would charge me $ x. I don't give him service. I even went to a local Toshiba support guy who said that he couldn't find anything wrong with my computer and that there nothing that could do.

    Now the same thing is happening again. This time I can't do it again. Of course their fantastic 3 months for the last motherboard warranty has expired. I tried to take out the battery and start it only to the power, but it does not help.

    I don't want to pay $500 for a new motherboard, and then drop it again. It is obvious that it is a hardware problem and I think that Toshiba should replace my computer free of charge.

    Anyone with similar problems? Any advice? Get pretty annoyed...

    Hello!

    Have you ever contacted again authorized service provider? If this is not the case, do please! You should talk about it again with technicians and then you will see what they can do for you.

    I can understand that it is irritated, but these things can happen and I think that the ASP will be best for you help you. To be honest, I have good experience with my ASP. The repair goes very fast and the technicians are very friendly and knowledgeable. It of always nice to talk a bit with them.

    I m not a technician, but maybe they can fix it as a gesture of good will or if you only have to pay the motherboard and not Exchange

  • Black screen while playing games on Satellite A300/500 psag4a

    Hi all!

    Before that I send my laptop for repairs (it s only 6 months old) I need to see if I am not mistaken.

    It s a model of Satellite A300/500 PSAG4A

    The problem is that when I play any graphics intensive games the laptop screen goes black and locks. Only a boot cold will get it back.
    Any other time he s not ok no problem, the problem only started 5 days ago, it has the latest drivers and BIOS.

    Once, he went to a blue screen with hardware failure but was quick to get a good overview of what didn't.

    This sounds like a defective video card?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello!

    The laptop gets hot?

    Here you can check if you have really the latest driver and BIOS:

  • Hypernating Ubuntu 8.1 + suspend problems on satellite A300-15 has

    I got a Satelite A300-15A and I installed the top Ubuntu operating system. But every time that I put it to suspend or hypernate, it starts again.
    When I press the power button I get a black screen with glitch (green stripes on top)

    Any ideas on how to fix it?

    Hello

    It is not easy to offer a solution to this. Satellite A300 is not supported with this problem and Linux, you're on your own.
    Check some Ubuntu forum. You're more likely to get good advice there.

    Otherwise, if Ubuntu works well you should be happy about it. This little problem shouldn't be that important to you.

  • Satellite A300 - black screen after long race

    I have Toshiba Satellite A300 1 portable PC series since 2008.

    It worked fine until the last few days. 2 days back when I started, it works fine until I go to bed (about 4-5 hours).
    "" I put my computer on and I slept, when I woke up in the morning, seen the button works / stop light is lit, "plugged in", "lit", "battery" all the lights are on but black screen of the tower.

    I moved the mouse, you press the mouse, press the SPACEBAR, enter keys on the keyboard, but nothing of this fact the live screen.
    I checked the fan works and the machine is hot normally.

    I noticed the CPU/HDD LED does not blink, the fact does not illuminate.

    The day before yesterday was also even, but after that restart was again very well.
    yesterday also repeated the same thing.
    Today also repeated the same thing.

    Please note my power saving mode: hip - turn off monitor - 1 minutes, turn the HARD drive - never.

    This setting is for last 2-3 years and normally off the monitor used to live on the movement of the mouse / key pressing.

    Can someone please help me figure out why my screen goes black after a night or more running morning.

    Thanks in advance

    Generally screen should turn off, but the laptop must continue to work.
    It is not easy to tell what happened.
    Can happen that laptop did restart because of a windows update installation?
    Some applications are active during the night? Some download or something similar?
