Satellite A300 reload correctly

I have Toshiba Satellite A300 and food will not up/charging the battery (charger and battery is fine) should move Connector loads and get into a position that works and houses the charger lead there.

I took continuity test apart and done through cell phone charger port and wiring, everything is ok. PIN in the port of the laptop is stable and doesn't seem to have any movement / broken internally. Don't know where to go from here? Without cutting into the charging cable and try to continuity with the pins at the port of the charger cable?

Any ideas?

Hello

Have you ever tried to charge the battery while the laptop is turned off?
Usually if the laptop is turned off, the icon of battery LED lights orange and if it s fully charged it changes color in white.

If it s still does not there seems to be a bad hardware work properly control of load on the motherboard. :(

  • Re: Can foreign supply in question on my Satellite A300

    Hi all

    I have a problem with my satellite A300, which is difficult to explain, and I have not found this problem anywhere elsewhere in the forums. I'm not a computer expert and I will try to explain the problem.

    When the battery is fully charged and I turn on the laptop, I can use the laptop for 5 minutes and I get a warning to reconnect. When I plug in, the system crashes. Nothing don't move or nothing happens. Press and hold the power for a few seconds and the system is off. I reload and restart once again and I play video sopcast or request some other videos and then plug-in system, it works fine. Once again I can use the system unplugged for just a few minutes, if I plug it crashes.

    If you play sopcast, plugin, it works.
    If I start the system in safe mode, it starts very well and I can use the system as long as I want. Even though I have the plugin in safe mode, it works fine.
    I checked with some experts and they say that the graphics card has disappeared. Some say that it could be a virus. Some say that it is a problem with the battery and charger.

    Please help me. I am writing my thesis today, and all my data is in this system.

    Thank you

    Have you noticed similar problems when you use the laptop with AC power only, without the battery?

    Start the laptop with AC power and when Windows is loaded correctly put the battery inside. What happen exactly when you do this?

  • Satellite A300 PSAG4E - no sound when you plug an electric guitar

    Hello everyone!

    I have a very difficult problem. I've got model Satellite A300, PSAG4E its short no, with Windows XP SP3 installed.

    The point is that I need to plug in an electric guitar to my computer and once it is plugged in, RealTek HD sees him but produces, records or not distinguished any sound.

    Everything is on, then I'm afraid that this isn't my inattention which is to blame.

    In case someone already had such a problem with guitar or a microphone plugged into the laptop, please inform me how you managed to eliminate this kind of things.

    Thank you.

    On my laptop I have Realtek HD Audio Manager also, but there is no option for registration. When the external microphone is connected Manager I see info on Realtek audio devices reloading and the microphone is recognized correctly, but in my opinion this Manager has nothing to do with the record.

    For the record, you need other software. In Vista, you have small tool called recorder of sounds. I tested it on my laptop and the sound will be recorded correctly.
    Can you please test it too?

    The fact is the external device is recognized correctly, but I think for sound recording, you need additional software.

    Thank you very much for your interesting report.
    Former Satellite A300 was originally shipped with Vista and has been supported for Win7 32 bit. Note even for Win8 so I do not think that Toshiba will do everything to offer drivers suitable for Win10.

    What you can try is to use the drivers, tools and utilities designed for newer models and hope everything wil works correctly.

    I am 100 & sure old A300 wil not be taken in charge for Win10.

  • Satellite A300 - Cheep at startup

    Nice day

    Yesterday, I bought the laptop Toshiba Satellite A300 and then I installed it, Windows 7 RC1 and now there is a problem. When the laptop start to return to the "starting windows" screen laptop starts tweet tweet terribly strong, and it takes about 1 minute. After the system starts and works correctly. Can someone tell me what average tweet, because it's very annoying, because the speakers are portable computer quality as well as the tweet is clearly heard.

    Thank you

    Hello

    To be honest, I have no idea what you mean :(
    But I've seen questions;
    You have installed Win 7 RC but have you tested the laptop with OS preinstalled Toshiba?
    Have you noticed the same tweet tweet (although it should be) running OS Vista Toshiba?

    Please check this!

    PS: this sound/noise early start is perhaps a part of Win 7...

  • Satellite A300 - "password" on the splash screen

    Hello, I have a problem with my Satellite A300-14 PSAJ0E-00W00PSK.

    * Screen with input "Enter password" appears every time when I turn it on can guess when I put wrong password 3 times, my laptop turns off. I had installed windows 7 with ubuntu for 2 years with no problems, but I can't boot any operating system present (even when I boot with the CD/DVD inserted with windows/ubuntu).

    * When can I get correct password? Or there is another solution to this problem? *

    Thank you for all the advice!

    I assume that your laptop is locked with BIOS password.
    BIOS password can be set only but I put t understand your situation.
    You have blocked your notebook with BIOS password or someone did it without your knowledge.
    Do you have an explanation for this situation.

    In any case, if the BIOS password is not known to you, you must contact the nearest service Toshiba and ask for help. They can remove for you.

  • 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)
    N °
    The CPU seems to be the troublemaker and I think that it should be replaced

  • Re: How to use the second hard drive in Satellite A300?

    I got a second hand Satellite A300 which was to be thrown out due to a defective DVD.
    I fixed the DVD and have a perfect system.

    On opening the box, I discovered that there 2 x 250 GB hard drives. I checked CMOS and show the 2 drives. However, Vista displays only the a drive.

    Excuse my ignorance, but how do I access to the second drive?

    I have Satellite A300 with two hard drives and each HARD drive has another operating system. Both hard drives are recognized correctly.
    I put t know what the problem is here, but the two hard disks should be recognized automatically.
    Try to set the BIOS to default settings and check again.
    Try to start the check and install Microsoft bootable disk if the two hard disks are displayed in Setup.

    I just hope that there is not a hardware problem.

  • Satellite A300 - Catalyst 10.3 running Linux driver support

    Hello!

    I'm surprised why Toshiba do not support the "ATI Catalyst 10.3 for Windows 7 drivers" for laptop, but "Drivers ATI catalyst 10.3 for Linux" I can install with all sellers (also Toshiba).
    I think Toshiba marketing strategy is very bad because Windows 7 users need to use the old drivers ATI Catalyst obsolete (modified Toshiba) but Linux allows users new drivers without limits.
    If Toshiba recommends Windows 7, then do not recommend drivers ATI for Windows 7, but Toshiba does not recommend Linux but the new ATI drivers allows users without limits.

    Question: I have Toshiba Satellite A300 PSAGCE notebook with dual boot 1GN: windows 7 & Ubuntu, how does it feel my gpu, if Ubuntu I use 10.3 drivers, because with fall default Ubuntu proprietary drivers, but Windows 7 I use 8.6 modified toshiba drivers?

    Thank you!

    Hi mate

    As far as I know, Toshiba does not support the Linux OS and you will not find the Linux drivers for Toshiba laptops.
    This means that you can use and install everything on the laptop, but there is no guarantee that this operating system and drivers work correctly and does not affect the functionality of the laptop.

  • Satellite A300-1J1 fails to connect WIFI

    I have a Satellite A300 1J1, purchased in September which I use in college.
    At home I have Virgin Broadband and my laptop is easily connected to it.
    When I get home I can not connect to broadband home.
    I put in all the correct passwords (it uses 3com) but my phone just crash log.
    It is not the home network, because my brothers laptop computer running smoothly at home. The problem is my laptop.

    I could buy a separate connect package and a dongle, but it seems stupid when I should be able to connect automatically.

    Can someone tell me what I could do to please which is not too difficult technically?

    Hello

    You should first check if your wireless network card has been recognized and properly installed.
    I noticed that in very rare cases the WLan driver was not installed correctly and there was a yellow exclamation point next to the WLan card.

    The WLan driver correctly installed is essential to connect the laptop wireless.

  • Satellite A300-146 - cannot play games with graphics

    I have Toshiba Satellite A300-146, model No.: PSAJ0E, 1 GB of RAM, Intel Dual core 1.87 processor, chipset Mobile Intel (r) 965 family.

    I can play some games like hitman silent of assasin on fullscreen and with graphics.

    But the problem is that a game could not open correctly IE after you open the game, he becomes 16-bit or not graphicsless. I tried these games = need for speed - pursuit and need for speed - undercover, the same problem occurs. I tried in windows XP and Vista.

    We all know Roadrash. I played this game in computer III pentium no value correctly... but I can not play in my laptop...

    Please help me to recover from this problem with the graphics.

    Sul

    Hello!

    Check the system requirements for the game. Satellite A300 is not a high-end gaming laptop and maybe some new games couldn't work on this laptop.

    Maybe you need to reinstall your laptop with the Toshiba recovery disc. I put t have another idea so try and post your result.

  • Satellite A300-1GC random freeze

    Hello

    my laptop (Satellite A300-1GC) worked very well for many years. But then last year he startet freeze randomly.

    What I mean with gel: I can't do anything, the mouse and the button are not, nothing on the screen moves (stop animations etc.). The only way to restart the computer is pressing the power on button for a few seconds.

    First of all I thought to a software problem, perhaps caused by an update windows (windows 7 Professional).

    The problem appeared different situations (programming, surfing the web,...), but often directly after starting the computer. Sometimes even in the login screen. I disabled all the startup process automatic antivirus, software, etc., but the problem remains.

    I never had the problem in safe mode (don't know if that's the correct word, in German, it is 'abgesicherter Modus'), but I don't use it very much, as a test.

    Then I installed linux mint on a separate partition. At first glance, it seems that the problem does not occur there. But after a few days: same problem. Random freezes, often after the start, but also at any time thereafter.

    I have not found any information related to the problem in the newspapers, in windows or Linux.

    So now I think it's a hardware problem, as it took place in windows (even at the login screen) and linux.
    I checked the disc with windows chkdisk and memory with memtest86 +. No error was found.

    You have an idea, what could be the reason for the gel? You need more info?

    Thank you very much

    Laptop could start freeze due to a higher internal temperature.
    After a long period of use fans and the vents may be blocked by dust.
    Dust prevents the fan is working properly and therefore the temperature could increase that may affect the functionality of the laptop.

    Try to clean the grates and remove the dust using a jet of compressed air.
    It is perhaps the best way to get rid of dust

    Another reason for this gel could be the memory problem
    It seems that you have already checked the laptop for the problems of RAM running the memtest86 + but even if this tool has said there is no problem of RAM, memory dysfunction might be possible. Of course it's only suggestion

    I think that you don't have a choice but to check each possibility: new installation of the OS, fan cleaning, maybe new HARD drive?

    Everything is possible

  • Need advice for installing Win7 on Satellite A300

    Hello

    I intend to buy Satellite A300-1MT (PSAGCE), and before I do I just check if there are still some problems with drivers for W7 for this model?
    On other forums, I saw that there are some problems with drivers like music keys, webcam, touchpad and FN keys and so on...

    So, can someone confirm me that all drivers are now available and everything works?

    And also until I started installing drivers is there anything I need to know (wait used?) Or perhaps better: does anyone have a special notice?

    Please, find the will to respond! Thank you very much!

    Hello

    I have the Satellite A300 running Win7 32 bit, but my model is PSAG8E.
    To be honest I have very good experience with installing Win7 on Satellite A300 and I can recommend you to install on this Satellite.

    If you visit the Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads you will see that your laptop model is supported Win7 and it shouldn't be problem to install all the necessary drivers and other stuff of Toshiba.

    Here is the list how I did this exactly:
    atellite A300 (PSAG8E) and clean Win7

    -Win7
    -chipset driver
    -Storage Manager
    -display driver
    -driver sound
    -modem driver
    -utility supervisor
    -infrared
    -patches 1.2
    -configfree
    -VAP
    Hardware - toshiba
    Control - HDMI
    -WLAN driver

    Everything works well but lacks some drivers

    Added Vista tips:
    Toshiba - help - working properly
    -Card reader - installed correctly
    -Webcam driver for A500 - tested with Skype - works correctly.
    Driver - Synaptics

    Win7 works well and I am very satisfied. No problems with the feature keys FN.

    If you are going to buy this laptop start installation Win7 following this order of installations. Please inform us of problems and I hope that we can help you about this.
