• Satellite A135-S2266 - do not reach hard disc

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A135-S2266 and the computer is not the hard drive. I already test the hard disk in the other PC and it works ok boot and everything. But in the laptop when I switch it on the LED for the hard drive turns on and turn them off almost immediately and will pass nothing no beeps or anything.

  I'd appreciate any help.
  Thank you.

  Hello

  Have you tried another HARD drive in your Satellite A135?
  I ask this question because if the HARD drive works fine in another computer looks like the HARD drive on the motherboard controller is defective

  Please check another HARD drive and see what happens. Either the disk is defective or the HARD disk on the motherboard controller.

• Satellite C855-1GQ: battery not: the adapter is connected

  Hello

  This is my first post here, I hope that someone can help me!
  I have a Toshiba Satellite C855 portable 1GQ.

  So, basically, I managed to break the end of the original charger (the part that plugs into the laptop) and stupidly tried a charger of similar connection to another device that has a yield lower than the Toshiba

  However when I plugged it it killed inside the laptop as well as the adapter battery (it was an old anyway). I have a new battery and a new charger adapter, but the battery won't charge.

  When I put the battery it worked fine for the laptop itself is not broken, the laptop says it's connected and charge but it loses all power until the battery is flat.

  The new charger adapter doesn't seem to work despite the fact that he tells me that it is with a pile of work. The specifications for the new card are the same as the original (I got a cheapish of ebay).

  Is there a fuse inside the laptop to be replaced when I foolishly used the adapter that I should not have? I have read many possible solutions on it but none seems to be specific to my problem. Perhaps the new adapter is not good enough?

  As I said, the new battery worked fine until it ran out of power, so the charger or something on the cell load.
  Any help would be appreciated!

  See you soon,.

  > Is there a fuse inside the laptop to be replaced when I foolishly used the adapter that I should not have?

  The use of false and not compatible adapter may damage the laptop's hardware (motherboard could be affected)
  Very important is the fact that the original AC adapter supports the 19V (v) output voltage and
  Output current 3. 42 a (Ampere).

  Use of the power adapter with different output voltage (not 19V) would affect the material.
  The use of the AC adapter with 19V voltage output, but different ampere value should not affect the material.

  (Value) of lower intensity< 3a)="" might="" not="" be="" good="" enough="" for="" battery="">
  But where the power adapter is compatible, I would test battery certainly another, new, fully compatible.

• Windows 7 Upgrade, saying that it is not the right disc

  I have the HP Windows 7 upgrade CD of 2009 and I'm trying to install it on my genuine HP laptop. First of all, I inserted the CD that is labeled insert everything first. After that everything was checked, I was then asked to insert the upgrade CD, I did, but then I received a notification that the disc I inserted is not the right disk. The CD I'm insertion is the support for Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade, two CDs have been sent to Microsoft. Is there something I'm missing or is there a way I can work around this problem.

  Looking forward to any help, thank you.

  Note: Running Windows Vista

  Moved from Vista to install, upgrade and activate Forum.

  You try to upgrade to the wrong architecture.

  When important changes to your computer, for example an upgrade, it is always recommended that you back up your system before installing a new version of Windows. In your case, you can upgrade to Windows 7 depending on the edition and the architecture of Windows Vista, you have installed. If you are running a 32-bit version of Vista and upgrade to a 64-bit (Windows 7 edition) version, you'll have a pure make install, it is the opposite case.

  If you are using Windows Vista Home Basic or Premium consumer editions, you can only upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate. In addition, you can make downgrades, which means, if you are running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition now, you cannot downgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. You perform logical upgrades:

  Windows Vista Home Basic > Windows 7 Home Basic, Premium or Ultimate

  Windows Vista Edition Home Premium > Windows 7 Home Premium or Ultimate

  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Professional, enterprise or ultimate edition

  Windows Vista Business > Windows 7 Enterprise

  Windows Vista Ultimate > Windows 7 Ultimate.

  My PC running the 32-bit version or 64-bit Windows?

• Satellite C series does not recognize the CD/DVD drive

  Hello

  I guess that you do not see the CD/DVD drive in MY computer area.
  Right?

  I think I can help you
  First go to Device Manager and search for CD/DVD drive.
  Select this device and delete it from the list.

  Now, open the registry (type regedit in the search) and remove the filters above and below to the following registry key:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SYSTEM \CurrentControlSet\Control \Class \{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

• Satellite P series would not power up until the battery is replaced

  Somebody has got this problem because it's the second laptop I have Toshiba with the same problem... Sometimes it does not fuel the good I have the ca card until I remove the battery then replace and then it will fit on... Any ideas please?

  HM, this is a strange question. You should maybe at the first attempt to do a BIOS update to the latest version to check if this will eliminate your problem.
  Could you please tell me what model you have exactly? Would be useful to know that.

  If the BIOS update didn t helped you then you send it to an ASP again because perhaps your problem is hardware related.
  You can check this link to find the next ASP available in your country:

• Satellite A100-383 does not - the battery is not

  Hi all

  I own a satellite A100-383 (PSAARE) that does not start when the battery is totally empty, or if I leave without the battery of the day to the next. The battery will charge not façade is and all the lights are off. I should always have a load on my battery and don't let not unplugged more than 2 days.

  If for some reason, my battery was completely empty, Plug and unplug the power supply from the wall outlet would make all the lights increase and charge the battery again.

  Unfortunately, I went on vacation and I forgot my pc unplugged and it does not charge or turn on. ? The headlights are off. Tried my dear old method to connect the unit several times with battery and without it with no luck... I could see a connection for a second or two, but I wasn't fast enough to plug in and they are off.

  I would be so grateful to you all if you give me a help to put it on my pc. Once I have it on the load and back I'll buy a new battery for sure.

  I look forward to reading your advice.

  Thank you all in advance!

• Satellite A200: Can I use the recovery disc without wiping the drive

  I read the threads on this forum, but I did not come with an exact answer to my problem.

  With my regular PC, I got a disc of Installation of Vista, which is also a recovery disk (like that could do with XP). One of the most useful things is that when you start from the disc you have an option to "fix" the system, which means that all the vital files (such as the bootloader...) will be restored, but otherwise all data will remain. This is extremely important when for example you install a dual boot with Linux, when often Vista refuses to start and to repair the boot loader has solved the problem. Of course it can easily and quickly fix all kinds of other problems in the system as well.

  My laptop Toshiba A200 (otherwise a wonderful machine), came with the Toshiba product recovery disc. From everything I read on the forum and what he says on the disc itself, I understand that it only allows a total reinstallation of the system, set at the factory, wiping your drive and everything on it.

  Toshiba really leaves us without a 'repair' option '?
  I find that quite amazing, because after all, I paid for the Vista operating system, so why shouldn't I get the options I would have if I had an original Vista disc?

  If all the above I have is right, it means that if I want to install a dual boot with Ubuntu and would get a bootloader problem, I loose all my data when I have to repair the boot loader? (A problem which, with the option 'fix', takes only 5 minutes to fix!).

  I would like to hear reactions, solutions, suggestions or alternatives.

  Thanks in advance,
  Yossi Beck

  Hey Yossi

  I think you have misunderstood something!

  You received with the image of Toshiba Toshiba Recovery CD! The image contains drivers Vista OS, Toshiba, tools, utilities, and additional programs!

  Please don't compare this disc for the original CD of Microsoft Vista and don t mix it!

  So using this disk, you can set the laptop back to factory settings!
  This is very useful because this procedure takes about 10 minutes only and you get everything functioning OS with all the drivers, tools, etc.

  Please note that no all users and customers who buy these phones are technicians and scientists ;) but simply newbie and such possibility of recovery is always welcome!

  but the use of this recovery CD format the whole HARD drive and erases all partitions.
  That is why it s advisable to back up the data before using the recovery CD/DVDs

• Satellite L10 - standby does not, the computer will automatically start

  Hello!
  I have a problem. My satellite L10, two months, began to behave strangely. When I put it in 'stand by' mode then after awhile it starts automatically. I do not have anything but the computer just affect position 'on '. It takes sometimes an hour, sometimes for several hours.
  I sometimes use 'stand by' because it can be over long periods of time during the days where I have the computer.
  There is a problem with my computer or - is this normal? If there is something wrong, what to do?

  Novis

  Hello

  I use the stand by mode if I don't need a laptop for several hours not days.
  If you do not need the device for a period of several days, I recommend to turn it off.
  Well, I put have a precise answer to this question.
  It's maybe something s wrong with the electronic power?
  I suggest to contact the ASP for more detailed information.

  Best regards

• Satellite A215-S7422 - cannot run the recovery disc - model corrupt system?

  When you try to run reinstall on my Satellite A215-S7422 drive, the installer won't work, telling me that "this CD is for Satellite A210 A215 Satellite. Please use good CD.

  When I run the information system, it identifies the model of my system a string as gibberish in the sense of: ' t.o &.

  He could not work because of this? Is there a work around? How can I give a valid system model?

  Hello

  I have heard on a question as when the DMI information is missing or damaged. You can read about it in similar topics.

  In any case, I think this happens when the motherboard was exchanged and the service center I forgot to update the DMI information on motherboard. If the computer model isn't recognized properly.

  You should contact Toshiba service center. Guys can update DMI information and help you solve the problem. :)

  Hey,.

  As far as I know for notebooks, it s not possible to order an online Toshiba Recovery disk.

  For older computers, you will need to order a disk at an authorized service provider. List of them which you can find here:

• Recover Windows Vista on the empty disc

  I bought a Gateway ML6732 laptop preloaded with Vista.  I wanted to install XP to replace Vista.  I ran a utility Acronis to empty the diRsk and now the Vista of the gateway restore disk will not load.  How can I get Vista and restart?

  Hello

  You have to Boot from the recovery disk;

  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

  You will need to contact the Support of the gateway for all the ongoing problems with the help of their Vista recovery media.

  http://support.gateway.com/us/en/support/default.aspx

  Gateway normally provides a recovery partition, not a recovery disk; But if you used Acronis can wipe (if you originally had a).

  http://support.gateway.com/s/software/Microsof/Vista/7515418/7515418su531.shtml

  It is an alternative method to reinstall Vista:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  This method may require the phone Activation.

  See you soon.
