Satellite A300D-15B - screen puts between on and off

Hi, I had some problems with my laptop screen; It's a power thing, but in recent days, it has become worse.
Whenever I tilt the screen of my laptop beyond a certain point, it becomes black. However if you shine a bright light on the screen, you can always see and say that the screen is always enabled, just very very very dark. However, if you tilt the screen forward again, it turns on / backup light.

Sometimes it is more embarrassing, and he repeatedly makes me and at the same time to tilt the screen forward and backward before the screen turns back on.

As mentioned, it's worse now, as the tilt angle of the screen must be low to keep it (as opposed to before where the angle of the screen so that it stays on was not serious because there is no need of me kind of turn above), tilt any further and it becomes black. Any ideas for a fix auto? I called Comet (the store where I bought this laptop from) about compensation and was quoted a 21 days to the maximum waiting time; I'd gladly as he saves the hassle free but I need my laptop for 2 months of work and study.

Thank you

Hey Buddy,

I agree with the user above. Theoretically, the internal LCD cable could be the reason for that matter. If it works on a certain point, it seems to be a bad connection of this cable.

You should ask an authorized service provider. Guys can order a new cable and Exchange.
I think this cable isn't so expensive

By the way: Here you can find the nearest authorized maintainer:

  • Satellite A300D-15B - off and charging problem

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A300D-15B, running Windows 7 32 bit, which has bought used recently. I encountered some problems and I hope that someone can help me with!

    First of all, the day I got the machine, he spent all of a sudden, but turned back immediately and seems to be ok. Subsequently, 3 weeks later (Saturday 2 July) I was installing some software when I got an AGV virus warning, in a few moments the machine again is turned off suddenly. Unfortuanetly right now it will not turn back and the costs/AC power indicator do not come. After some research, I found that remove the BIOS battery and power dissipation allowed me to turn on the machine. Are there any known issues that could be the cause?

    Second, once I had the laptop to turn on after you stop suddenly on Saturday, I found that the charger will not yet be you register as being plugged in unless I have use the folling procedure.
    (1) disconnect the power cable fuse from the transformer block
    (2) remove the battery
    3) plug into the DC Jack
    (4) plug the power cord for the transformer that causes the power led on the laptop to turn on.
    (5) reconnect the battery

    The laptop then charges normally, I use it to write this post.

    I must use this process whenever the unit is unplugged the sector or charger, which is irritating and also concern that there could be trouble on the horizon.

    Any help would be much appreciated.
    see you soon

    Hi John,.

    You wrote that your laptop runs with Windows 7 and the first question you mentioned could be linked to the operating system only. You can test one thing please? Restore factory using Toshiba recovery disc. The disc will restore original settings of the case which is pretested by Toshiba.

    If it s just a software related problem the recovery disc will resolve this problem.

    Unfortunately, it could be a malfunction of the motherboard also. Are you using the original Toshiba AC/DC adapter or 3rd party one?

  • Need drivers for Win XP 64 - bit - Satellite A300D-15B

    Hello

    I recently bought a ' Satellite A300D-15B "it came with Vista Home Premium 32-bit.

    I want to install XP 64-bit. The driver page have drivers for XP, but it does not specify this time are these drivers for XP 32 - bit or 64-Bit XP.

    Can come a confirm which edition is for drivers are?

    Thanking you,

    Ganesh

    Hello

    There's no drivers 64-bit of Windows XP and I think it won't be available on the Toshiba driver page. Why?
    There are a few reasons for this.

    First of all the Vista is the disciple of Win XP and only Vista 64-bit drivers are designed for new laptops and computer equipment.

    Second, really unique operating system Win XP 64-bit. It was not so popular like Win XP 32 bit and most of the applications and software are not compatible with the XP 64 bit OS.

    I put t know many people who would like to use the 64-bit XP and maybe this is the main reason why 64-bit XP drivers are rare.

    I think that if you want to use this OS on this laptop, then you have to collect drivers 64-bit XP to your own hand.

    Good luck

  • Satellite A300D-15B PSAKCE - USB message appears if BT is enabled

    Sorry if I am one of those annoying people who has posted something that's already been posted.

    A few weeks ago, my laptop series a Satellite A300D-15B (PSAKCE 00K0DEN) held to come up with a msg - "USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED" - when nothing is plugged into one of the USB ports (all that I then plugged in any of these works very well).

    Today, I was keen to use the bluetooth with my phone. The icon is red and blue instead of the combination of white and blue usually there when you are ready to send files. By opening the menu "Add new connection", a message pops up saying "Bluetooth is not ready." In the menu options, running a diagnosis reveals this msg: "check communication with Bluetooth device: fail.

    I turned off the Bluetooth and noticed that I stopped the message USB too - and on the activation of Bluetooth, the message would keep popping up, indicating that there is a link between them.

    I'm a noob to complete technology and I have no idea how to solve this problem, or even to grasp what the problem is to start with most websites that seem useful seem also full of jargon that I don't understand!

    I really hope someone can help as my minimum information and thanks in advance.

  • Satellite Pro C50 - A - 1 K 9 - screen flickers power on and off

    Has anyone encountered a problem where the screen flickers power on and off? Mine will Dim to the point where you can't see whats happening and then back to normal.

    I tried a restore drivers, but the problem persisted. I did also check complete anti-virus (I realize that it was probably not the cause of the problem, but decided to be complete). I was thinking that it's purely a hardware problem, like when I use an external monitor connected through a HDMI cable I don't have this problem.

    I guess it must be a problem with the connection between the screen and the motherboard. Maybe a problem within the hinge where they cross connection.

    Anyone got any other suggestions until I sent it off for repair (only he got in March and I have a 2 year warranty, but who goes back to college soon and do not want to be without him).

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro C50 - A - 1 k 9.

    Thanks in advance.

    I agree with you, Fraser and think it could be hardware related issue but I don't in any way you can fix it alone. Your laptop must be controlled by the Toshiba service provider.

    Contact the nearest service provider for Toshiba in your country, explain the situation and ask for help.

  • Upgrade memory on Satellite A300D-15B

    Hi all

    I'm going to upgrade the ram on my laptop 4 GB to 8 GB. First of all, I will post all the details of my laptop then explain the problem.

    (Original configuration)
    Satellite A300D-15B
    Model: PSAKCE
    BIOS ver: 3.30
    AMD Turion X 2 Ultra Dual-Core Mobile Processor ZM - 86 (ZM - 80 upgrade)
    Genuine Windows® Vista® Home Premium 32-bit
    4096 MB (2048 + 2048) PC2-6400 DDR RAM (800 MHZ)

    Then to the right, I installed Windows 7 32 bit top centuries ago and implemented at the processor level and have never had problems as I work with computers.

    I did some checking and found out that my motherboard supports up to 8 GB of ram and decided to purchase two 4 GB RAM modules. I made sure that I had good ram to my laptop.

    I upgraded the ram and it recognized without any problems and has even stated that 8 GB of ram was installed under 'System' in contol panel and in the bios. As it was a 32 bit OS it has only 3 GB of ram. So I decided to upgrade my OS to Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit and that's when the fun begins.

    Basically, my laptop does not start if I have more than 4 GB of RAM installed (in all configurations) and get a BSOD. I had a few different Stop error codes, but I can't seem to find a solution. Also, there is no all/many options to change in bios, so Im puzzled.

    I tested the modules of ram with Memtest several times without error and tried in different laptops without problem. I know that my computer laptop suppors the 8 GB that I had no problem running the 32 bit OS.

    All my drivers and other software are up-to-date and work very well and have installed all the updates of windows to date.
    If anyone else has had this problem and is at - it a patch/fix available?

    Any help, ideas or suggestions are welcome and I hope I can fix this problem. Thanks in advance.

    Melchius

    Hello

    You are right. Your motherboard can be upgraded with RAM and max RAM for your laptop model is of 8 GB.
    This info you can find in the specifications of the laptop.

    Problem is that, for the upgrade, you must use 100% compatible modules. I'm pretty sure there must be a compatibility problem.
    Can you please tell us what modules you use (brand and specification).
    For example: module 4GB compatible for this model of laptop has part number PA3670U-1M4G.

  • Satellite A300D-15B Brightness control (F6 & F7) don't work for startup

    I have a Satellite A300D-15B. I can only adjust the brightness - using the F6 and F7 keys - during the first seconds of startup upward. When I hit Fn - F6 (or F7) after that, I get the popup function, but the cursor does not move.

    It seems that the only time where I can change the brightness is during startup, which is frustrating.

    I've seen other threads that relate to this same problem in Ubuntu or XP, but I'm running Vista (6.0.6001 - SP1). I recently flashed the BIOS with the latest updates (now at the V2.90), no effect.

    Anyone have any idea?

    TIA

    Hello!

    In your case, I would try the Toshiba value added Package update. This package contains the Flash cards that offer the Hotkey function.

    On the Toshiba driver download site, you can search for this update:

  • Satellite A300D-15B - upgrading Windows 7 32-bit to 64-bit?

    I added an extra 4 GB of memory to my Satellite A300D-15B (PSAKCE). When I try to run the 64-bit Windows 7 update, it will fail with a blue screen.

    Is it possible to update this model for 64-bit Windows 7?

    I could not find the driver for Win 7 64 bit on the page of the Toshiba driver, but Vista 64-bit drivers should be consistent, at least most of them.

    > When I try to run the 64-bit windows update 7 it will fail with a blue screen

    To be honest, I never did upgrade of Windows that I always prefer a clean install.

  • Satellite A300D-15B - need for Windows 64 - bit XP SATA driver

    Hello

    Someone has drivers SATA for Win XP 64-bit for Satellite A300D-15B?

    Kind regards
    Ganesh

    Hello

    As far as I know this laptop Satellite A300D-15B was equipped with AMD chipset and therefore the SATA driver should be part of the ATI graphic driver.

    But you can also install the Win XP without the SATA drivers.
    In the BIOS, you will need to set the mode SATA from AHCI to compatible.

    Then you should be able to install Win XP on this laptop.

  • Satellite A300D-15B touchpad plays when the external power cord is connected

    I got an A300D-15B for about 2 months and while using it I noticed that the touchpad is hyper sensitive or do not respond.
    I tried all settings (and it works fine when the advanced settings window is open!), but return to a document or a Firefox window and the cursor sticks, wiggles on trolling or is highlights of the things that I don't want it. The driver is up-to-date.

    After much trial and error, I discovered that it is fine when working off battery power, but the plug in the socket and it is almost unusable.

    Anyone who suffers from this?

    Hello

    I would recommend contacting the ASP in your country and by checking if this problem from touchpad seems using a new power adapter.
    I read here in the similar topic forum, and the user resolved this problem using another new adapter!

    It s really strange but this should be verified absolutely!

  • Satellite A300D-15B webcam does not - black screen

    Hi, I would appreciate the help. I have a new L300D-15 ter and we have problems with the webcam. It's less than a week. We use MSN a lot and noticed that sometimes the webcam has become black while on a video call - when I say black you could see us like shadows of contour. Once we waved our hands on the webcam and it seemed to come back to life, but othertimes we had to stop the video call and re - call to retrieve the image of the webcam.

    We phoned to Toshiba and reinstalled the driver but it seems to have done worse. When we opened the independent software for the cam us are visible for a second and then black. We tried on MSN it happened once but we could clearly be seen after a few seconds, and he remained on for the duration of our short call. This has happened on and off on the power supply.

    Some ideas would be appreciated.
