Satellite A60 - do not start after power supply fault!

Hello

I know it's a long shot, but here's the situation!
I had a Toshiba Satellite A60 PSA60E for repair.

He had the power plug inserted into the back of the case of the break taking, damaging U4 and hit 3 resistors.

I have now replaced the socket, transplanted the resitors counsel doner and welded in a new IC (U4).

Now when I turn on I get the LED illuminating as expected (Inc. that blue on the power button) but nothing on the screen, no fan, no disk buzzing etc away.

Ideally, I would like to try subing cpu etc but don't have any alternative to play with.

If any ideas whatelse could be wrong on that?

Not sure I want to risk the cost of a new motherboard (that they is availible) or that it would be interesting to the replacement of the machine.

Look forward to some good advice
Thanks Jon

Hi Jon

Unfortunately, I n t think that someone here in the forum will give you a precise answer and provide the solution it seems that it s a motherboard problem.
As you know that the computer motherboards are complex parts with many electronic details.
It of impossible to say what could be the problem on the Board without any detailed controls.

To my knowledge, card repair mother is not so easy and expensive so you should not pay for the repairs, but buy a new Board of Directors which is covered by the warranty or second hand board which is much cheaper

  • Satellite A200 - will not start with power supply connected

    My lapop is 2 years old. Whist trying to boot it restarts at least 2 times and I am running Windows 7.

    Hello

    Normally, if you connect the laptop AC adapter shouldn't t stop. Everything should work correctly as the system even starts the battery would be defective.

    So, I think you already wrote that the motherboard is faulty. In this case I recommend to contact an authorized service provider. Technicians can order a new mainboard and Exchange! :)

  • Satellite L300 - will not start after the installation of Skype

    My Toshiba Satellite L300 won't start after installing Skype.
    This happened to someone else, and can I do?

    Thank you.

    I think Skype is probably the most used messenger and ideal application for communication.
    It is professionally designed and programmed. As you know in recent years, it has been offered in many different versions and it is always better and better.

    So I think that Skype itself is probably not the problem. I know that a lot of people also use Skype and I've never heard problem described.

    Anyway, what you can try is to remove Skype and try to install it again. Try also push the BONES at that earlier time. Maybe some Microsoft updates are responsible for the stability of the software.
    It's really not easy to say what the problem is here.

  • Win XP on Satellite M30X does not start after battery was flat

    XP on M30X will not start after battery was flat! Safe mode, last work... nothing works!
    The restore CD offers 3 options1: new installation, 2 toshiba recovery utility (expert mode) und 9 output.

    How do the XP Recovery console, or how to use 2 to restore the system without losing any files.

    Thanks for the tips.
    It is a nite Mare...

    Wolf
    Good day

    The point is that the Toshiba Recovery CD does not have the Windows XP repair console.
    The restore CD contains the image of Toshiba and you can just reinstall the system on the HARD drive and no repair.

    Now you have 2 options of recovery.
    First called standard recovery option would be to format the entire HARD drive and reinstalling the image.
    The second option called recovery expert allows you to reinstall the operating system on a selected partition. Then only this partition will be formatted.

    If you do not want to format the whole HARD drive then you select the second option and select the partition to a new operating system.

  • Satellite M200 does not start after the RAM 4 GB upgrade

    Hello

    I recently updated my RAM just to speed things up a bit as RAM is so cheap these days.
    I have a MEAC M200 T2130 Vista with 1 GB sticks (2 * 512).

    The new sticks are 2 * 2 GB Dane - elec DDR2 pc2-5300, when I put the two and restarted the hard drive light came briefly and then it is just options BIOS of Idol, no POST.

    I tried to use a single stick of 512 MB with two new sticks and they both work in a 2.5 GB configuration just not together that also this only works when the stick of 512 is in internal housing and not vice versa.

    So if someone has had a similar prob or can give me some advice that would be great, I'm not sure if the motherboard can support 4 GB?
    Thank you, Dave.

    Hello

    There are two possibilities why your M200 doesn't not start after upgrading RAM.
    First the RAM installed may be not compatible or could be faulty or the computer laptop doesn't support 4 GB of RAM.

    I put t know what M200 do you have exactly, but you can check the installed chipset and could check on the Intel page if this chipset would support 4 GB of RAM.

  • Satellite A300 does not start after extinction during the BIOS update

    Hello

    I tried to update the BIOS after reading a TOSHIBA TEMPRO alert, after some time, apparently not run so I ran a second time, then both ask of BIOS appeared in the taskbar only and it froze while I did not start the upgrade or anything like that I had to the power off.

    I tried to restart, but now, it just on the screen stays black (the monitor is not powered, as if the system was not running), all LEDS are powered with flashing 'drive access', the led on the DVD Player keeps flashing making a noise every 3 seconds or more.

    I read on the forum that there may be no solution but to take it to an authorized service provider but I'm willing to take any possible solution before you do.

    Thanks for any advice.

    Alex.

    Hi, mate

    Unfortunately, you need to be reflash the Bios as something that went wrong during the update. You should contact the Asp and ask them to reflash. There is no other way to get your laptop to work.

    Good luck!

With only 1 GB, that it starts ok, with the other 1 GB origianal only boots ok. (The two modules are ZCE6 430 - K4T1G163QB Samsung 1 GB PC4200 533 MHZ DDR2)

    The two modules of 1 GB boot not together. I noticed that many others have had this problem. (please see
    This [t-22984]. post)
    On this forum, someone bought the CT12864AC53E memory module which works, however I can't find this on the site of Crucial.
    I've heard other purchase the sticks of memory CT572238 and CT572234 and have the same problems.

    Memory Advisor says determinative buy the CT572234 memory sticks.

    I have also updated the bios to V3.10, still does not start with the two modules.

    > 1 GB strips boot not together. I noticed that many others have had this problem.

    For me it s case;
    The two modules don't work together
    Seems the modules are not compatible there is only one solution. Replacement of RAM!

    Try other RAM modules.
    I bought a few modules from Kingston and made good experience

  • Reference Dell R710 does not start after power failure

    Hello, I tried to find answers on the forum but nothing so far

    I have this R710 at home that I use as a media server, it was working fine before a power outage the other night (no I don't have a UPS :-(

    When the power returned, I noticed one of lighting power supply has been turned off, so I took it out of the unit, but the unit still won't turn.

    I still have a so-called good food because the small green LED on the motherboard lights, and I can access the iDRAC, this feature, I didn't before the net Searchin' for answers, I'm kind of a novice with the servers.

    When I access the iDRAC, on the power supply page, I see nothing, no power supply listed.

    Is it possible that a diet might be "half bad", enough to work the emergency circuits but not the power outlet?

    Symptoms:

    Camera lights.

    Can access the functions of the Idrac, but doesn't do anything if I try to activate it via the tasks "quick launch".

    Power supplies are not visible on the pages of the Idrac.

    Display before work.

    Server was very well just before a power failure which took one of the PSU

    The remaining 870 PSU has the green light on, and the fan works for 2 seconds every time I cut the power it.

    Thanks for any help.

    OK, well... no answers.

    I found a place locally that sold a diet so I arrived with my server, I told them I would buy the power supply that I confirm that the fault was in fact the power supply.

    Well, you know, the unit started correctly with the new power supply, now in IDRAC, I see both power supplies but on that faulty, he reads "present, entry lost.

    So the answer is YES, a power supply may be defective, even if the green light is on.

    All suggest?

    Thank you

    Difficult to say why this happens
    Did you test the HARD drive for a possible damage?

    Test the drive using HDD Drive Fitness Test.
    The HARD drive is perhaps not entirely correct and it must be completely stopped before you start spinning once again

    It is a Dell Inspiron 1525 with Vista 32 - bit, recently replaced hard drive

    My daughter has been using the computer and the power failed due to low battery.  Now, the computer does not start normally and not all programs will run.

    If I choose "safe mode", it hangs on crcdisk
    If I choose 'window start normally' it crashes to the screen of Microsoft Corporation
    If I choose "last known good configuration" then it seems to start normally, but does not all programs run.

  • Satellite L350 - does not start after the BIOS update

    Hello

    I recently (yesterday) downloaded the latest version of bios update dated dated 25/02/10 2: 20 - WIN, after download and does run the software from the laptop immediately stopped working and stop. I am now no longer able to boot up the laptop at all, all I get is the power light on and the hard disk light flashes, I hear the spinning CD/DVD drive, but what is not screen anything, I don't think this is the start.

    Is there a way to fix this without taking it to a store/engineer, BIOS recovery?

    The laptop is a Satellite L350, I opened the laptop to try to reset the CMOS by removing the card mother battery (not sure if it would have helped), but as much as I know it doesn't have an or I'm not.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Andy

    Hi Andy,.

    Hmm... If the BIOS update failed, you can't do anything because only an authorized service provider has professional diagnostic and recovery tools to redo an update.

    So in my opinion, you must contact a service provider authorized in your country. Get in touch with the guy and ask for help. They will tell you what to do now.

    Here is their list:

  • Equium A60 does not start after the BIOS update

    I have an Equium A60. After being caught with some very nasty malware and Trojan horse, I had the disiccion to reformat the machine and reinstall the OS.

    Everything goes well until I updated the bios. Machine crashed and now I can't restart. Press the power button and the machine will start for 3-4 seconds and then stops.

    I know it of because of the bios and want to know if there is anything that I can reset this back to the original settings?

    Thanks in advance for your help

    Hello

    Unfortunately, you can not solve a BIOS is broken down by yourself. At the machine really / judgment of accident during the update process? If Yes, then your machine has disappeared and the only chance to bring back to life is to ask an authorized service partner to help you.
    Maybe they have a software to solve these problems. You should try and contact the nearest ASP in your country:

    Is there a solution yet?

    It is with a very old laptop 400CDT Satellite that I use to pay my car. What happened, I lay laptop running on battery until it went flat and now I can't start laptop with or without battery (and connected a/c)... turns on, it don't think light for 1 second, but nothing on the screen?

    What this may be?

    No one can tell you with certainty what can be the problem. We can only speculate, but just after the exact diagnosis laptop you can find more information. As you can see in another thread, there is no universal solution, and I assume that you need professional help.

    BTW: one thing I didn t understand. When you turn on your laptop, don't stay laptop but nothing showed on the screen or the computer laptop immediately switches off the POWER?

  • Satellite L30 does not start after the upgrade to 2 GB of memory

    I bought 2 GB Crucial memory for my L30. After removing the 512 MB module and adding two modules of 1 GB the L30 wouldn't start. With only 1 GB start ok ok, with the other boot only 1 GB.

    Either 1 GB modules and module of 512 MB with start ok. The two modules of 1 GB boot not together. Crucial gave up and offered a full refund, but I'd rather have a solution if possible.

    At the BIOS level is 2V30, that I understand to be the latest version available.

    Ideas please, John

    Hello

    You're right, this problem seems very strange and I wonder why this happens.
    Satellite L30 certainly supports the 2 GB of memory and you should be able to upgrade with 2 x 1024Mo modules!

    It's strange, but it seems that these two modules are not compatible together
    I found Toshiba recommend module on options and accessories site.
    DDR2 400/533 1 GB (PA3411U-1M1G) maybe you could try this one...

    In any case, I don't think that you will be able to solve this problem in another way. The modules must be replaced.
