• Satellite A300 - restarts when I plug it into a power outlet

  Hi guys this seems to be the place to ask this question,
  My laptop is Satellite A300

  When I connect the adapter it restarts all of a sudden, if I stay on the battery, it is fine if I am running Windows and plug power will be locked up and restart. It starts so that plugged either, unless it is in safe mode. With the power of the battery (with power adapter) machine works without any problem.

  The problem (reboot) occurs when I connect to the AC adapter. I have change the power supply and tested. Remove the battery and tested. In addition, reformat and reinstall Vista and BIOS update.

  But the problem is still there, please can someone help me?

  Thank you!

  Hi icebunny,.

  Do you use an original Toshiba AC/DC adapter or a 3rd party one? This would explain why the computer restarts. Probably he doesn't use the correct specifications for voltage or intensity thus restarting the laptop.
  Did you check the characteristics of the AC/DC adapter? The lower side of your laptop, you can check which adapter AC/DC (e.g. 19V 4, 3 a) is necessary.

  Can you charge the battery when the laptop is turned off?

  At the moment I think that it s mainboard malfunction and that would mean that he must replace :(

• Satellite A300 restart when it is plugged power

  Hi all
  I see some of these problems arise in the forums and I was wondering if anyone has a solid answer as to if this is fixable or is the laptop useless now.

  Satellite A300
  No error log display software errors.
  Error recovery reports an unexpected shutdown.
  Recovered the system using that a disc of recovery on the 3rd test and the problem persists.

  Although battery-operated system is functioning properly, but the battery life is simply not long enough that the laptop is my main computer.

  The laptop is now outside its warranty period and if I can not understand that I might as well use it as a doorstop and buy something else.

  Thanks in advance for your time

  Your mobile phone is turned off, you remove the battery, connect the power adapter and switch it on. What happen next?

  With or without the battery, the laptop must run stable on the sector
  If it s not the case, it is possible that your motherboard is affected but I hope that's not because it would be the worst case :(

• Satellite A300 - restarts if I plug charger

  Hi all

  I'm on Toshiba Satellite A300 (psag0n/00w00u). Today, I installed Vista home edition. Now, I am facing strange problem that is my lappy restarts automatically as I plug in charger. This problem started suddenly previously installed OS (Vista ultimate), but at this time there I didn't notice if this only happens when I plug in charger. It seems to be a hardware error.

  Can you please help?

  Thanks in advance,
  Fox

  Hi remy,.

  In my opinion this has nothing to do with the Vista installation restart your laptop if you plug in a charger.

  To me, it looks like a hardware problem and your laptop should be checked by a technician of the laptop. Maybe the motherboard needs to be replaced or something else.
  By the way: you use the original from Toshiba AC adapter or another?

  If you use the original Toshiba adapter, contact the service provider authorized in your country. If not try again with an original Toshiba adapter.

• Satellite A300 - restart of the equipment when installing Win7

  Hello

  I have laptop Satellite A300-24Z, and I try to install windows 7 on it, the installation of the computer restart or get the bottom blue screen (not BSOD) and stuck.

• 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

• Satellite A300 - his stutters when I enable Wi - FI turns

  Hello!

  I am owner of a Satellite A300, and almost from the beginning, I noticed some occasional stuttering on the sound.

  Really got me bugged with this question, and I tried several times to solve. I even got to the point of resetting the default computer. Sooner or later, the same problem started again.
  I even started a thread in the media forum, without a solution for the bug. Even if I had a valuable contribution on an antivirus I've tried and I think is quite good, avira.

  Let me describe more accurately 'symptoms:

  * I recently discovered, this annoying behavior isn't random.
  * The stuttering is repeated at the minute, all about the same second every minute.
  * This led me to suspect a certain type of hardware/software cyclical behavior.
  * I guessed the laptop components that could have this kind of cyclical 'check' could be wireless equipment, for example, searching for a kind of networks.
  * Immediately, I turned off the switch.
  * Waiting for this ' second marked "happen and to my surprise, the suttering did not.
  * WAIT a few minutes and the situation remained out of any disruption.
  * then I turned the switch back on and within seconds after 4 or 5, the suttering returned and again the minutes that follow, by the same second.
  Does anyone have an idea what might be causing this problem?
  I have to say that sometimes, I am able to have the switch on without problems. In this case (I think) when I start the system with the switch, wait until the system is fully elapsed, turn on the switch and start a had-hoc wifi network that I created on my laptop to share my computer with a dsl connection laptop here at home.

  But right now, I booted the system with incidentally on switch (even got stuttering on the welcoming sound of windows) and in this session, I was not able to maintain the switch without the "bug", again. Even if I activate the had-hoc wifi network (i.e. activation worked on other times), I can't get the stuttering sound, without having to press the switch.

  See you soon!

  Hello

  What are you writing about? Your laptop starts with windows media player playback music or how to understand this?

  I have Satellite A300-1LI in front of me, and I tested it with Vista preinstalled original. Work on my Satellite I like listening to music or simply Internet radio. I can switch on / off WIFI, but there is no difference. Absolutely no sound stuttering.

  Believe me, that's not easy to say why this happens. I do not understand why you write about the bug. Why my laptop doesn t have the same bug that your?

  This happens when you only use the WLAN switch or when you use the FN + F8 key combination too?

• Satellite A300/A300D blocks when I play the game

  Hello from Croatia and I'm sorry if spelling has some errors

  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A300/A300D
  Here are its features:
  Processor:
  Turion (tm) X 2 AMD Dual - Core Mobile RM-74 (2 CPUs), ~ 2.2 GHz
  Video card:
  ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650 graphics card
  Operating system:
  Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit (6.1, Build 7600) (7600.win7_gdr.100226 - 1909)

  When I bought the laptop I had Windows Vista 32-bit, after I put Windows 7 32-bit

  After a while the games have begun to block, even the call of duty 2, I play 5 minutes, and then after 5 minutes to block the departure of about 5-6 seconds and then is good and if all the minutes. I don't know what to do and ask for help

  Thank you

  It is not easy to say what the problem is here. I imagine that some background processes are active and the HARD disk must be busy then you will see that the game crashes or stutters.

  It may be an antivirus application that scans the HARD drive or something similar.
  Have you tried to unplug the laptop from the LAN/WLAN, close all the race but not need process/applications and switch to high performance power plan before you start your game?

  Please play with all this stuff. I mean that Win7 works better on these books like Vista so I think it must be a software related issue somehow.

• Satellite Pro A300-1E7 - reboots-random when it is plugged

  As the title says, I'm the random reboots when I plugged into my laptop POWER supply. It works perfectly when I run the battery.

  I also tried to see if it could restart when in the BIOS, but it seems it's OK, even if I have not tried for a long time. I think that the mobo is faulty. An update of the BIOS might help?

  Any ideas would be great, that I wouldn't throw the laptop because it is a little technical high enough Kit.

  Hey Buddy,

  I put t know what you mean with the mobo is faulty, but to me it looks like a hardware malfunction. I mean if everything works correctly in battery mode, everything seems ok and it s not a driver or software issue because it happens on the BIOS too.

  So in your case I contact nearest authorized maintainer and ask for help. Technicians can check what the problem is and fix it for you :)

• Satellite A300: missing letters when typing fast & noisy fan

  Please help me!

  What plugins are you using IE? Some plugins/toolbars can drastically affect performance.

  Have you tested in FireFox or another browser? You can download FireFox here: http://www.getfirefox.com

  Have you installed Windows yourself? Or are you using the factory Windows installation?

  Maybe you are missing some drivers, for example, if you have not installed the correct graphics drivers, Windows will run in Mode VGA (software mode), which is very slow.
  Take a look in the device for driver issues Manager.

  It can also be caused by software installed. Perhaps you have two antivirus installed? Maybe you should try to back up your data and running recovery. Who would determine if it is a hardware or software problem.

  An update of the BIOS can also help. You can get the latest version of the BIOS on the Toshiba site in the support section.

• My Satellite A300 unexpectedly blocking down

  Hello Sir,

  My Toshiba Satellite A300 shutting down suddenly while I plugged my AC adapter / CC.
  It is not to say any conflict or any other and then restart automatically to Windows loading and then stop. This ongoing process when I plugged my adaptor m.

  I checked my laptop not too heat and it doesn't operate by the battery power.
  Is there any solution for my laptop? I m using only my computer laptop battery charges while.

  Hello

  Have you tested different adapters?
  It might be possible that the power adapter is faulty and provides an abnormal power to the laptop. This may affect the functionality of the laptop

  But it the adapter works properly it could be a hardware problem laptop - like an electrical problem on the motherboard power supply
  Don t think it s kind of software problem given that battery mode to work properly.
  I think that apart from the power adapter, the motherboard should be verified and I have fear of the faulty motherboard can be costly replacement of m.

• Satellite A300 - CEC_MAIN. EXE error at startup

  Hello, I have a Toshiba Satellite A300 network and when I run Windows Vista and the error message is displayed. This error is cec_main.exe.

  I have remove the camera assistant software and restart the computer, restart when Windows the message not to apears. I have install the camera assistant software, and this error again.

  Does anyone have the solution?

  Hello

  The CEC_MAIN. EXE application belongs to the software of the camera, and if you have already tried to reinstall, you should check your firewall and security software.
  I think that your security software is blocking this application in order to check this!

  If it doesn't work remove the software and reboot the laptop. Use CCleaner to clean the system and reboot once again. After that, install the latest software for the Toshiba page.
