• Screen VAIO Pro 13 gradation when power cord plugged

  I just had a problem to occur on my new Pro 13 in Vaio, Windows 8.  The model number for my Vaio is SVP132A1CL.

  The problem I have is that when I plug the power cord into the machine, the screen fades until I can barely see anything.  When I pull the plug out, and the computer returns to the battery power, the display lights up to a normal level.

  I tried to restart my computer several times, and the problem does not go away.

  What should I do?

  Thank you very much.

  Kenton,

  Try this:

  1. open Windows charm and type in 'Power Options' and click on it under "settings".

  2. find the power plan that you are underway and click "change plan settings".

  3. under "Adjusting brightness of plan" adjust until you are desirable under the "battery" and "Plugged in" brightness

• Re: Satellite a200. Resetting or freezing when power cord plugged

  Hey,.

  Ive recently had my computer cleaned after that I had problems with it cutting cause of overheating. It allows to cut while loading Vista too I thought only a dust problem.
  However after it has been cleaned professionally and reformat the computer he now always cut while I have the power supply or reductions on when changing the battery to the power source (works great with just battery).

  I have narrowed down to a few options but I just want to see if anyone has useful comments / solutions for fixing.
  1. that I need to update my BIOS. That proves a problem such as this particular model of upgrading the BIOS satellite is not an option to burn to disk and requires a source of energy at the start of the desktop computer.
  2. that one of the sensors is broken and cause interruptions occur when the is not necessary
  3. There is something short circuit when the power source is implemented.

  couple of addition notes what is happening:
  I mean, by resetting the computer just completely stops and restarts ten seconds of the latter.
  If I put the computer to sleep then wake him (even when using battery) it resets.
  When the power supply is on and start, he usually cuts to the same place.

  So any help is appreciated. Sorry if the lay out is hard to understand too, the laptop has so many questions it's hard to link them together. Update ill prob with more problems that I can remember other smaller
  Thank you. :)

  Hello

  Have you tried to reinstall Windows using the Toshiba Recovery disk? Maybe this can help you solve the problem and it s worth a try.
  Check it!

  Furthermore, I would normally say that you need to update the BIOS, but to update the necessary s BIOS you have the AC/DC is plugged in but in your case the laptop freezes.

  So I would try it with factory settings (Toshiba Recovery disk) and if it doesn't work you should go to the authorized service provider nearest. Then, it seems to be a hardware malfunction and the BIOS update is not possible at the moment.

  Good luck!

• Satellite M100 lights when AC is unplugged

  I got my M100 today. Plugged AC to charge the battery, it works, does some stuff, then off and let the battery. Now, I unplugged the power supply and can not turn on - no reaction on button / stop. Although, just ok plugged AC lights.

  What is more, if I turn on when plugged in AC, the computer starts and then I unplug the mains cable - it works well on the batteries and the battery seems ok (20% in 20 minutes, heavy load).
  Any ideas what might be the problem?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  It is a new unit. In this case all replacements and repair procedures should be made free of charge. I'm sure the service guys will do a great job.

• Satellite C855 1pj - video freezes but audio is not

  Hi all

  I have problems with this Toshiba model mentioned in the subject Satellite C855-1pj,
  When I was running a facility for her and left for 15 minutes without activity, the installation is stopped so I had to move the Mouse touchpad courses occasionally

  Now, after installation, I'm having a problem with the video itself.
  I check if this isn't a fault of screen savers or something but not the screen saver's select this option to work
  So I'm just surprised the screen lights are fading.

  Once it freezes, he got a load courses.
  I am running a Windows 7 Home Premium x 64 this is a new installation and all drivers are up to date.

  Recently, I had a problem with an Adobe program, I tried to install it but during the process the courses of mouse started to 'load' and installation froze.

  Thank you

  Dawid

  I'm not quite sure of the issue described Mr. I mean its not clear enough if it's just a software or a hardware related issue.

  You said, the question appeared during installation. But is not clear enough that you have installed: System Windows or some 3rd party software?

  I think that if problems arise during the installation of the system, for the most part a hardware malfunction is responsible for this show.

  I m wondering how the unit may operate using the image of Toshiba; the image that was preinstalled on the first day of the purchase.

  In any case, let's possible troublemaker talk:
  If there is any software problem, then I recommend to test a few essential parts like RAM and HARD drive.
  HARD drive as RAM failure problems can lead to freezing system.

  RAM could be verified by running the tool memtest86 +. But you must run these test two hours just to make sure that the RAM is OK.

  HARD drive test can be done running a tool called Drive Fitness Test

• Satellite Pro L500 - stops when the power cord removed

  Toshiba Satellite Pro L500 stops when the power cord is removed even with the battery to 100%. I removed the battery and all the indications associated with battery answer correctly. For example turns off, Toshiba Health Monitor also indicates when the battery is removed. If installed Health monitor indicates that the battery is at 100%.

  Someone please help. I have not installed anything new.

  Hey,.

  For me, the matter is clear: the battery can't hold a charge so the laptop will be shut down because it has no power.

  I think you need to replace the battery with a new one and you can get a provider of service authorized in your country. Simply contact the guy and ask that they can tell you how much it would cost.

  You can find a list of all FSA here:

• Satellite Pro U400 freezes sometimes when the power cord is plugged

  Hello! I know that this problem has been addressed here and there, but I'd like to open a new thread about it. Here's the scenario.

  I recently bought a new Toshiba Satellite Pro U400-247 (PSU45E) with two batteries: (a) the original, (b) in addition purchased authentic of Toshiba PA3636U-1BRL, 7200 mAh. The laptop has the latest BIOS (4.80) and the latest drivers downloaded from Toshiba and installed (ConfigFree is not installed). I use XP Pro SP3 (own installation by myself). Everything works fine, except for one thing:

  Sometimes (but), when the laptop is running on battery power and I plug in the power cord, everything hangs and I have to restart. A few observations:

  It tends to occur more frequently when the low battery alarm has rung;
  (b) it seems to happen more frequently with the 7200 mAh battery and less frequently with the original battery.
  (c) it seems to happen most often when a USB device (mouse, for example) has been linked to the laptop, but it is not a rule;
  (d) it seems to happen less often when I move the mouse USB at the time wherever I am connect the power cord.
  (e) I've experimented a lot with Toshiba PowerSaver settings (for example to change the levels of CPU for my profile) but nothing I changed seems to change the situation.
  (f) I tried different suggestions I found on various forums, but nothing works (for example the BIOS settings);
  (g) otherwise, I can say that I have not really seen a smoother computer, everything works really fine, no other problem :)

  Everything that makes me think it must be some sort of bug in the drivers of motherboard driver PowerSaver or other drivers interact with battery, CPU or possibly USB. Y at - it an explanation to this problem and can it be rectified in some way (for example, by providing a driver update)?

  Hello

  First of all, I never heard a driver from the motherboard.
  There is a drive chipset or a graphics card driver. There is no such thing as a driver of the motherboard!

  Look, man. laptop should work fine even the AC adapter is connected or not connected
  If the laptop freezes while there might be a software problem, but in my opinion it could be hardware problem
  You must reinstall the operating system if the laptop would freeze always the issue might be related to hardware

  First of all the memory modules and AC adapter must be verified.
  If the problem persists even using new modules and AC adapter, motherboard may be affected.

• Satellite C855-1UU close problem, notebook turn on itself

  Hi all,

  I hope someone can help, I need to know what to do. I bought this laptop C855-1UU Satellite two days ago, and I'm afraid she has certain shortcomings.

  Everything works fine, except that I have problem when I power the laptop off. I use Linux OS (tried with Sabayon and now on Manjaro, I wanted to just check is this OS or hardware problem).

  It is:
  When power off the computer laptop (with icon or via the console command), phone off... then turns stays off for about 5-10 seconds and then switch on by itself without any reason!
  I tried to determine what could be the possible reason, and I found that occurs only when the battery charger is connected. Tried it with the battery removed, with loading the BIOS default values, nothing changes... always turn on itself.
  When unplug charger laptop battery and try to power off the computer, it works.

  Any suggestion, idea or advise what to do?

  Thanks in advance!

• Satellite L40 - 14N boot question without power cord

  Had this problem for a while, any ideas please?

  My Satellite L40 - 14N sometimes won't start when the power cord is not connected. It starts ok but when I get to the Windows screen drops colored that keep moving from left to right and the machine will not get one more no matter how much time is left.

  This never seems to happen when the power cord is connected and is turned on, it starts very well.

  Hi starmonkey,

  What power lead do you mean exactly? Do you mean the AC/DC adapter?

  To be honest, I also don t know why this happens, but you use pre-installed OS from Toshiba?
  You have installed a different display driver?

  Maybe you should try to reinstall Windows in worst case it s a bad material work :(

• Satellite C660D - 181 Power Cord issues and can not read CD or DVD

  I have a Toshiba Satellite C660D-181 and my power cord has had problems with the connection. I plugged it in and the light on the left indicating it is plugged in and charged off and my cell phone begins to lose his load.

  I must escape around and try to get it just in the right position to show him it is plugged. I have it plugged into an extension of the Strip which is connected to the main outlet (and the only outlet) in the room.

  I use it exclusively in the living room so I'm close to the telephone and TV, so move it to another room will not be the answer. I'm afraid that the repair costs would be too high and the purchase of a new laptop computer is out of the question for now.

  Another question, I'll have, it's that I can't read a CD or a DVD. I have Windows Media Player and Apple Quick time Player. I chose to play the media instantly, but it still does not work. I installed cc registry cleaner to see if it was a registry problem, but no joy there. I have Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit.

  The most important issue to address at the moment is the power supply cord. I appreciate your help. Please, profane as computer jargon escapes me.

  > I worry that repair costs would be too high and the purchase of a new laptop computer is out of the question for now
  What is this option? You want to fix it yourself?
  Don t think that it s a real option since you would need good parts, hand tools, maintenance and find out how to fix it.

  Since you and I don t know exactly the cost of repair, I would recommend first asking how this fix could be I mean, you can request a service in your country for a price and could decide if its worth for you

• Aspire gel mouse/Touchpad V7 - 482PG when connect power cord (Windows 10)

  Greetings,

  I'm having this strange problem in my V7 after upgrade to Windows 10:

  When I plug the power cord of the keyboard and the touchpad and mouse gel (I use a Microsoft Bluetooth Mouse and touchpad in my V7 is a Synaptic).

  -If I unplug the power cord, all thaws.

  -If I plug the cord by moving the cursor, either with the mouse or the keyboard , then they don't freeze and I can work normally.

  -Of course if I start the laptop with the power cord already plugged, everything works normally and if I unplug the power cord, there is no freeze.

  The problem occurs only when the laptop runs on batteries and I plug in the power cord and the only solution is to move the mouse while plugging in the power cord. It's really annoying.

  I installed all the drivers on the Acer support and page also tried several combination of new drivers older drivers etc. This never happened in Windows 8.1.

  I don't know what else to try. I hope someone could help with this issue.

  Thank you and best regards,

  Miguel

• Satellite C855 - 2 EV - some letters do not appear when I type fast and blind

  Hi all

  I bought this Satellite C855 - 2 EV only 2 days, but I've met a few keyboard problems.
  I type blind and fast all the time, so when I noticed that whenever I type fast, a few letters only do not appear on the screen once I pressed the keys.
  Especially the SPACEBAR.

  I can only type correctly if I do it slowly and if I have pressure on each unique key. I don't want to type like this because I want to save time and just type blind and fast, I also do not want to cause more damage to the keyboard or laptop.

  Can someone help me please?
  I don't want to consider the store just because of all the hassles I have to cross.

  Thanks in advance

  I know it may seem silly now, but I think that the only solution for you is to type a little more slowly and correctly. With correctly I mean that every single button should be enabled to give a correct contact.
  Similar thing happens on my older P500. When I type faster I make so many mistakes on my word document. Some letters are missing and occasionally does not work SPACEBAR. I tap it correctly. In my view, the key, but there is no contact.

  Sorry, but I don't think you can do something about it.

• Satellite U920t: Win update - impossible to restart even when power off / on

  I have a U920t satellite.

  When I turned on this morning, Windows displays a message "keep your PC until this." Installing up-to-date I have 5... ».

  This status remained on for centuries, in fact, I left it on for hours, hoping that it was a significant update file, I even went to do errands and when I arrived home, she was always the same.

  I tried pressing ALT - DEL but nothing happened. I then the PC off, left for a few minutes and he fed up, but the PC comes right back with the same update message.

  I have also noticed that, after that the PC was supposed to be turned off, the LED of the drive system flashes on and off intermittently as if it is actually still being run or locked.

  Bearing in mind that this PC uses the SSD solid state, and I have no way to stop feeding the unit completely, I guess I'm really not turn off the process.

  Can someone tell me how I can get this PC out of the loop and get my PC back working again once it please?

  I tried to watch the Web on another PC, but all the information seems in every sense.

  I presume that it is really a matter of Microsoft, but I'd really like to know how to get back again in my PC.

  Concerning
  Tony

  Hello

  Have you tried to press and hold the button of power lasts 4 seconds?
  Usually, this should stop the process of loop.

  Also try this:
  Switch on and press F12. Now you should see a start menu where you could choose some devices. Last option should be HARD drive recovery.

  Choosing this option of HARD drive recovery you would reset the system back to factory settings.
  Check it out!

• 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 :(

• Electric shock between the helmet when it is used in Satellite C855

  I need one help if just to acquire a Satellite C855 - 1GN laptop and have not used my prior helmet.

  When I plugged in the socket, I had a small electric shock to the left, ear no matter what I put in it and can hear a buzzing through it. I got these awhile and not had any problems with them in my old laptop or Ipod before.

  They are Dr Dre in-ear if that helps at all, have no idea why this is happening and how to fix it.

  Thank you

  > When I plugged in the socket, I had a small electric shock to the left, ear no matter what I put in it and can hear a buzzing through it. I got these awhile and not had any problems with them in my old laptop or Ipod before.

  It seems that the hardware problem and I would recommend to get in touch with Toshiba authorized service partners in your country.
  Something like that is certainly not usual behavior for laptop and checked by a technician
