• Satellite A200-1FL randomly turns off

  Hello

  I have the problem that after I moved from the Spain to the Thailand now my Toshiba Satellite A200-1FL randomly turns off.
  This only seems to happen when it is connected with AC - with battery I have it is not happened again although I can't rule out it.

  After some time of work (sometimes only 10 minutes, sometimes up to 2 hours) the laptop just shuts off-as if I would unplug the unit without the battery inserted. It is certainly not an overheating problem because the CPU is at 55º c most of the time (a year before the cpu fan was dirty and he has sometimes increased to 90º - but which caused no stops).

  I don't know about electricity here in Thailand - but it seems 220V and they do not use the Earth (at least at the point where I am).
  I use the original Toshiba AC adapter.

  What could be the problem here - is there any solution or the solution to this problem?

  Thanks for any help,
  vitaminx

  Hey,.

  As stone I n not know electricity of the Spain and Thailand, but if you have only this problem with the AC adapter / CC, there are a few differences between the Spain and the Thailand.

  In your case, I will ask the local authorized maintainer in Thailand. For example just give them a call and ask a technician for help. I'm pretty sure, they can give you an answer if you need a new power supply or another outlet.

  Good luck! :)

• My Satellite Pro M70 itself turns off in the middle of the secuence of startup

  My Satellite Pro M70 itself turns off in the middle of the secuence of startup

  After turning on if it passes the test post and enters the menu grub (Linux + Windows) or BIOS
  without problems, but most of the time after the start of the BONE found in the start - up, suddenly it powers off the power.

  The problem becomes bigger and bigger as punishment I can boot any operating system

  As seen on messages more soon as I cleaned the vents of CPU with a spray suddenly sure I wasn't a problem of overheatting.

  Someone has an idea of what can happen?

  Thank you

  Hmm, the laptop passes the MESSAGE correctly and it stops during the initialization of the operating system. Is this good?

  Well, in this case I would exclude the RAM to malfunction.

  I put t also think that it's an overheating problem because the laptop should work a little longer until it would be closed due to high temperature.

  What about the HARD drive malfunction? Are you sure that the HARD drive is ok?

  In my opinion, you should check the HDD and maybe try another.

• Satellite Pro A300D heats and turns off

  Satellite Pro A300D gets very hot and sometimes it turns off by itself. He did this recently.

  What could be the problem?

  Hello

  Usually, the notebooks of cooling modules should be good enough to ensure that the laptop could be cooled properly.
  It s not necessary to use a cooling means.

  In most cases, these cooling States blow air.
  This can be problematic, because internal notebooks cooling fans blow hot air too.

  I think you need to make sure there is enough free space around the laptop and should not use the device in his bed, sofa or on the lap. Use the laptop on the table and I think that this should help to avoid overheating more far.

  See you soon

  My Satellite C660 zooms pages Web etc. in & on the touchpad mouse.
  I tried to get used to but its been a year & I had to buy a wireless mouse that I can get along with it.

  Can I turn off this feature so the Mouse touchpad don't zoom in & out everything more & just did normal move the pointer of the mouse & tap to click functions?

  Hello

  Yes, this can be disabled.

  Here click the Advanced Settings button
  Here, you should see all the available options. I guess that option should be available here.

• Satellite A660 - optical driver turns off when burning DVD

  I have a problem with the optical drive of energy saving options that disables the drive while burning.

  I tried all the suggestions mentioned here [http://forums.toshiba.com/t5/Satellite-Laptops-A-Series/Optical-drive-automatically-turns-off-due-to-power-saver/td-p/223654], but it does not help.

  I start at the burn in Ashampoo Burning Studio free, and he seems to be good until the end. When it starts the process of lead-out the popup of the optical signals Drive Power drive is turned off. It's funny because it is still running at the speed of combustion and it will not stop. The reader becomes unresponsive, even I can't the DVD out. Even, that it disappears from the list of devices.

  The only way I thought so far to stop the car and release the DVD is in the shutdown/Hibernate the computer.

  Once the dive starts working again the STRANGE Fn-tab functionality started working and I can turn it on/Off/ejection at will.

  All the burned DVD - s are not valid, and so far I have not managed to burn a single functional DVD.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A660 - PSAW3E with Win7 Enterprise 64-bit.

  Is there a way to fix this? Remove the optical drive power management?

  Hello

  To be honest I have never heard of this issue, but it appears that the optical drive power management is part of the power of Toshiba configuration utility.
  Part of the Toshiba value added package configuration done Toshiba power utility.

  What you can try, for testing purposes, to remove the Toshiba added value of the system package, restart your computer and try to burn DVDs again to see if the same problem will occur again.

  Toshiba value added package contains several tools such as utility cards flash FN so after his withdrawal, you will not be able to use the FN keys. In any case, after that trial, you can download and install Toshiba value added package again.

  I mean, I know what kind of conflict is there, but maybe you should consider it.

• Satellite A30 PSA30E suddenly turned off

  My A30 satellite seems to work ok as long as the air can move freely under the fans. When the power is low and you plug it in, it turns off after about 5 minutes. You must charge the battery and remove the sector so that it works without going out suddenly while you're busy using it. All solutions? or the reasons why. Did the last update of the BIOS.

  Hey guys,.

  Maybe you should do the following:

  Take a can compressed air to an electronic market, blast, some air trough the vents of your laptop and try if your machines are chrashing... sometimes simply it s one with cpu clobbed dust fan and and a clobbed cooling system, causing problems like yours.

  It s worth a try...

• Satellite A350-12j - cannot turn off light Mediabuttons

  Hello

  I bought a Toshiba Satellite A350-12j, and I think it's a fantastic phone!

  2 days ago after about 3 months of use, it began to slow down, so a friend of start me 'Cleansing' of my laptop. (Some progs antispyware, CCcleaner, defragmentation, run..) and it also took some start programs op in the MSCONFIG.

  After this cleaning, we installed AION and it runs great, computer is fast, once again, all good. Until last night, when I was ready to put the buttons of media and the Strip-light little above the touchpad and the Toshiba brand out, so my battery would last longer, it has stopped working.

  Whenever I press the icon to boot, only this icon turns off and then the lightning is reactivated. It sounds like a stupid problem, but it lowers decreases your battery. Now, I checked back on in the MSCONFIG and already ran a repair of the system, but nothing seems to help...

  Can someone help me with this stupid problem please :)

  Friend, Niels

  -Sorry for my bad English, I'm from Belgium-

  Hello Niels

• Satellite P15-S470 it turns off by itself - overheating?

  Hello

  3-4 years old laptop Toshiba Satellite P15-S470 my father seems to be overheating because it turns off by itself. It can happen at any time: in Windows XP Media Center 2004 (SP2 and all updates), at the prompt of password of BIOS at idle, at Windows startup, etc.

  Also, I can feel the fan blowing hot air hard left, the area of the battery being hot and the CD/DVD ejected hot.
  Hot note does NOT mean too hot to touch with my hands/fingers.

  I used a flashlight to look through the dark wind, and he looked clean (not so dusty or obstructed upward). I removed a few small items to make more air space for the winds, and that seems to help after a few minutes.

  Is there a program/software for checking laptop temperature sensors? I checked the CMOS area, but you could not like office machines. Site Web de Toshiba does not have one either.

  Are there ways to remedy (out of warranty)? I guess that the fans are still working because I can hear it turn very hard (quieter, if it's cool). I'm afraid it will get worse when the weather warms (Los Angeles weather) in particular this weekend when temperatures reach near 100 degrees (F).

  It is only in low 70 in the kitchen downstair on a glass table. The laptop started doing this a few weeks ago, but it seems to get worse when the weather warms. In addition, the laptop is usually [powered on site thanks to its power adapter.

  Battery use is rare (will try to remove the battery, if the problem occurs again to see if it causes the problem).

  Thank you in advance. :)

  Hello

  You said that the laptop is about 3-4 years of age?
  Hey dude, it is a very long time and in my opinion, the laptop must be cleaned professionally.
  For me it s a clear case. the fans don't run with maximum efficiency and therefore may not cool properly the laptop parts.

  I recommend contacting specialist and portable and it assistance. He could clean the module cooling grids and the fan inside.

• Satellite C850 - 13 c turns off after upgrade CPU

  Hello

  I have a Satellite C850 - 13 c with the b820 cpu celeron. I bought a core i5 2450 m to upgrade, but after I installed the new processor, the laptop turns off each time after 30 minutes exactly.

  The problem happens also in bios mode. In the first 30 minutes, the laptop works perfectly but it just closed down without warning.

  Aparently others had the same problem with this laptop model, even with a core i3 cpu upgrade.

  I've tried so far things:

  -Ventilation control system - everything ok, temp is not above 40 ° c
  -Updated bios updated to the latest version
  -People with mobility reduced all the main functions of the cpu in the bios
  -The battery bios reset
  -Tried with AC adapter only, only battery, same result.

  This model just don't treat a larger cpu?
  Please help :(

  So generally the CPU upgrade is not possible with this show you are yourself and any exchange of material is at your own risk only.

  Problem is that Toshiba doesn't any info says on the upgrade of CPU and functionality with different processors. Thanks to a specific design, there is danger of overheating.
  In your case, it is interesting that laptop off after exactly after 30 min.

  Unfortunately I can't help you with this, but this case is very interesting announcement I will continue to follow the discussion. Let's see what other people will write about it.

• Satellite Pro A10 just turned off with warning message

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro A10 I've had for about 2 years now. During the 2 ~ 3 days I started to have a problem very serious and boring, and you're doing something to run MS word thro to play to a very high technical game (this game can be played on an old 486 no probs) the laptop after about 20 minutes (may vary) usage turns off just with warning message it immediately restarts without any problems and then after different durations down again and again :, (. everything got a clue what the hell happens, please help. :))

  Colin B

  Hello Colin

  Portable described behavior is specific to the overheating of the material. If the laptop is not properly cooled the temperature of the material at the level critical and just turns off without warning.

  Solution is cleaning. The device must be cleaned and dust should be removed. After doing this unit can take a new breath and you won't have this problem again. You will see that run cooling fan will also soften than before.

  Good bye

• Satellite U400-14 b turns off and now it won't start

  Hello

  just got a new Satellite U400 this week.
  Worked perfectly the first days, and then last night, it just turns off and now it won't start.

  I press the button and the row of lights beside him light up, but nothing happens that I n t even get as much as the Toshiba screen.
  I tried a lot of things. I left it plugged in all night, tried to take the battery and any results now.

  Little led lights on the bottom indicates that it is his stuffy, battery is white not orange when you press they light up only for a fraction of a second.

  The only thing I can compare it is too when a car won t start and you keep turning and turning the key, well in that case, pushing a button, and nothing happens, fans don t whir or anything...

  help please...

  Additional memory (RAM) has been installed? Try to remove a memory Module and try another memory location.

  If bad memory is not the problem, then there is not much else you can do except send it to an ASP for warranty repairs.

• Satellite A75-5211 just turns off

  Hi, I had this problem in the past once and he's back now. My computer is a Satellite A75-5211. When I play any game on it (like MVP Baseball 2005), at some point the computer just turns off without any warning. It's as if all the power is just part of him! I can start again, and then everything is normal.

  In the past, the problem disappeared for a few months, but it happens regularly now. If anyone can help me, I would appreciate it. Also, I use the program hardware sensors monitor 4.2 and it tells me that my CPU1 temperature is 60.0 ° c, while the temperature of the HARD drive is 37.0

  If this problem cannot be solved by a technician in person, where is the nearest place that I can go? I live in Canterbury, UK.
  Thank you
  Sebastian

  To me, this looks also because of overheating.
  This probably occurs because the game is a heavy application that requires complete laptop. In this case the CPU and graphics card produce a lot of heat, and therefore the temperature rises to a higher level.
  Then the operating system shut down the laptop to prevent damage.

  As mentioned you should check the fans and cooling modules and possibly try to clean with the vacuum cleaner. In addition, there should be enough free space around the laptop to the circulation air properly.
