Satellite L300D 11V - power problems

My toshiba seems to be charge (amber light) but I can't get the laptop to stay, even if still connected.

It is quite old and battered and I think he's ready to be thrown to be honest! I have the drive c and another player who is present, which is used to back up etc. I think it's our e:drive or unit, I don't know how to remove the hard drive from the computer but will that have both of the drives on the pc in it? or is there another internal hard drive, I need to find?

Thanks a lot for your help!

The reason why I ask, is that if I can't make it work, I would need to get everything on hard drives.

Hello

> I don't know how to remove the hard drive from the computer but will that have both of the drives on the pc in it? or is there another internal hard drive, I need to find?

I think that there is only one that HARD drive parted into two partitions.
To my knowledge the first C partition contains system and second partition D contains image files.

However, you should get access to these two partition also connect the HARD drive to the other PC through external USB controller.

With regard to the issue of the battery:
I think that the battery is defective and must be replaced after 400-500 charge cycles, the battery would start to lose performance and it s just a matter of time when you will need to replace it.

  • Satellite L300D-11V: taken power moves a bit

    Hello

    I recently bought a new Toshiba Satellite L300D-11V of curries.
    The laptop is great apart from the power jack on the side of the laptop that may move a little when it is plugged into the laptop.

    I took the thing to the shop only to hear the Director tell me that the display model of the laptop even did the same.
    The laptop works very well and starts too thin.
    I just wanted to know if someone else L300D-11V did the same thing.

    I also wanted to know if anyone had any complaints or positive things on the laptop.

    Hello

    Unfortunately I n t have the L300 and I can't say much on the subject, but on my laptop the DC port doesn t pass. He fixed s and I think that it would be advisable to contact the ASP in your country. The technician must check to ensure that there is no hardware problem.

    I think that you should do this because you warranty is still valid and all can be fixed and replaced for free. the warranty covers this.

    Best regards and greetings mate.

  • Satellite L300D-11V does not start

    Hey, I have a Toshiba Satellite L300D-11V and seems them to be a problem, the battery seems to be dead and does not start also when I connect it to the mains it also does not start.

    Please could someone help to what is causing the problem?

    Thank you very much

    I doubt that it is a dysfunction of the accumulator because the startup laptop doesn t even the power adapter is plugged.
    I think you should try this workaround:
    Remove the battery from the laptop and unplug the power adapter.
    Then wait about 20-30 minutes and then reconnect the two parts.

    If the portable fuel I would recommend updating BIOS.
    If the portable feed then you will need to contact the ASP in your country!

  • Satellite L300D-11V cannot find a WLAN

    Ok
    I have 2 x Satellite L300D-11V notebook PC series and both have the same problem: they're not detect my network wireless in my house but I've proved the wireless hub using a third PC (HP) and works perfectly.

    I ve checked the wireless switch is enabled and made key FN + F8, but it cannot always find a network. I checked the devices in the network adapters and find Realtek RTL8102E Family PCI - E Fast Ethernet NIC but it's a card LAN isn't?

    Other devices show a unknown device, but where can I find the wireless device?

    Hello

    I don't know what kind of stories you heard in stores, but the fact is that Toshiba offers laptops with wireless network inside card. These laptops come with preinstalled operating system (recovery image) and have factory settings.

    This recovery image contains the operating system, all the drivers needed (including the WLAN driver), Toshiba designed tools and utilities and some additional software. So if you buy the new laptop with OS preinstalled WLAN driver is there.

    The statement in both stores is a disinformation or there is a misunderstanding.

    Hi John
    I'm happy to hear that your problem is now solved. Just FYI: your laptop wireless network card is REALTEK RTL8187B 13CH 802.11(B/G).

    Good bye

  • Re: Why is it so hard to find drivers for a Satellite L300D-11V

    I recently acquired a laptop Toshiba Satellite L300D-11V to my daughter when she was upgraded to a netbook. It had Vista on it and I tried to installed Windows 7. I've never owned a notebook pc before, only a desktop pc; and they have never been through an OEM like Toshiba, but is built for me or by me. I bought Windows 7 and here, asked if he had any tips to install the drivers on my laptop Toshiba.

    Windows installs all drivers actually when it installs. Not the best that you not understand, or later, but enough so that everything works.

    I had problems but try to update of maps, graphics and imaging (webcam) devices. Windows gave a dated 2008 latest ATI driver accredited a pilot signed for the ATI Radeon X 1250. After a few searches through Toshiba, I managed to update this for 2009. But it took 2 days to research before finding what I think is the last Catalyst (and last?) ATI Radeon X 1200 series v.8.593.100.0 dated the 10.02.2010. Unless of course you know better... ??
    The webcam Chicony USB 2.0 CNF7051 is something else.

    The drivers for this camera software might work when installed by Toshiba with all the other stuff of Toshiba, and they resolutely refuse to work if you remove the software of all Toshiba with a clean install of Windows 7. The camera works you understand with other software; Messenger or Skype; but on its own... no! I managed to remove the message "the pilot was able to start" and thought that I had a crush, but I now have a message "webcam disabled or has failed.

    At least he does when you try to start the software, not on every start at the beginning. So I'll stick to this... unless of course... ??
    At times like this I realize why I buy a machine no OEM and install my own operating system and the latest drivers, not the old ones that are provided and not updated by OEM.

    In my opinion, it is not difficult to find drivers for Toshiba laptops. You just look for the right place.

    Many people with European models of research pilot on the US page and I was wondering why they can't get good portable.

    I assume you have the European model so you'll find drivers on Toshiba are supported on the page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads.

  • Satellite L300D-11V - DVD player does not work

    Hello

    I am a Satellite L300D-11V and the driver on the CD does not work. I think is not the right driver and an update of Windows could have messed up.
    Anyone know where I can download the correct driver for the DVD player for Vista? Or solve this problem?

    Thank you

    Mounira.

    Hello!

    I put t understand why you need a CD/DVD driver or tell you the driver does not work.

    The CD/DVD driver for the reader is part of Windows. You don't need one and should not install a new or something else. When you have problems with the drive, it s not the driver, it s another issue.

    Now have yellow marks in the Device Manager and can use the drive? On the right, a right click on the drive and select uninstall. Restart your laptop, and the driver should be installed automatically.

    Good bye

  • Need your opinion on Satellite L300D-11V

    In contemplating this laptop priced at 349 to curries. Main use is word processing, music. I player videos download. eBay and general navigation. Chose this one because of the availability and its construction in webcam and microphone.

    New to all this... are there disadvantages I ve heard Vista these slows down, but you can t get it with XP?
    The price is right? Observations of information please.
    There was so many variations on the Toshiba site, I got a little confused!
    TKS

    I don't know if you can have the Satellite L300D-11V with licensed XP, but Vista with SP1 is almost as fast as Windows XP.
    The Satellite L300D with Vista has enough four power your use with word, downloads, etc.

  • Webcam Chicony USB 2.0 & Satellite L300D-11V

    Hello

    I just installed Windows 7 Professional in my laptop Toshiba Satellite L300D-11V.
    Everything is reported as working in the Device Manager, but the driver of the webcam Chicony does not start.

    Windows automatically installs the drivers, v.6.1.7600.16385 dated 06/21/2006, but the unit does not start with them.
    Windows insists on the fact that these drivers are the most appropriate for a Chicony webcam.

    Download from Toshiba site has a VISTA, not Windows 7 drivers, v.1.7.175.0123 driver, but the unit does not start with them.
    Is that what the camera is simply not compatible with Windows 7 and I have to use an external USB webcam?
    Or someone at - it a way around the my problem please?

    What's even stranger, is that now I have installed Skype webcam works in Skype... ??
    The webcam also works in Windows Live Messenger... ??
    But I can't start the webcam using the installation "Camera Assistant Software..?

  • M690G AMD chipset driver for Satellite L300D-11V under XP Pro

    Nice day

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300D-11V comes with Vista. I downgraded it to XP Pro. I need to find a driver from chipset AMD M690G (processor is AMD Athlon X 2 dual core inside) to set right, but can't find so far that has worked.

    I think that's the reason why I can't install the network driver wireless Realtek correctly on this subject.

    Many thanks for the pointers, I'm really stuck here...

    See you soon

    Hello

    The AMD chipset driver is part of the graphics driver. This means that if you need to install the graphics driver XP for this laptop, the chipset driver is installed too.

    You can try the graphics driver XP for Satellite A300D PSAK0E.

    The series A300D PSAK0E was fitted with the same graphics chip ATI Radeon X 1200 as the Satellite L300D-11V

  • Satellite L300D-12U - two problems after installing Ubuntu Linux

    Hello

    I installed Ubuntu 8.10 on my brand-new u. Satellite L300D-12
    So far, everything works fine, but there are two things bother me.

    1. I have problem with suspends to RAM. It does not work. If I use the option to boot, the screen goes black but the laptop is still running (you can hear it).
    In addition, nothing happens when I press the power button to exit the sleep option.
    I completely close the laptop and restart to be back in Ubuntu.
    Maybe someone has some ideas how I can fix the problem?

    My/etc/default/acpi-support have these entries:

    # Comment the following line to disable the ACPI suspend to RAM
    ACPI_SLEEP = true

    # Comment the following line to disable the suspension on disc
    ACPI_HIBERNATE = true

    # Change the following of 'sleep' to use ACPI S1 sleep, rather than S3.
    # This will save less energy, but can run on machines more
    # ACPI_SLEEP_MODE = mem
    ACPI_SLEEP_MODE = standby

    2 battery life
    My current maximum battery life is 01:10 hours. On windows, it's 2 hours >. Maybe someone has some ideas of configuration to increase the time of battery under Ubuntu?

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    Kind regards

    Hello manual

    I'm really skeptical about Linux here support. I heard that Toshiba will start with Linux support, but of course, it is not started yet.

    If nobody here can offer help I recommend you discuss this on some Linux forum. You have more chance of getting help here.

  • Satellite L300D-12u: power supply works not - is threre a guarantee?

    Hello.

    Today, I was surfing the Internet when suddenly my laptop says, is no longer on electricity.
    I touched the power supply and the connector that is immersed in the laptop was very hot (not the big case which becomes usually hot, only the connector).

    I tried several times to make it work again to take a new start or cool connector, but it still does not work.

    To make sure, that it is the question of food, I used the power supply of my mother, who is similar to mine, and then it worked.

    So my question: do I have a warranty on my power supply?
    I bought my laptop to 29.8.2008 in Germany and is a Satellite L300D - 12u.

    Thank you for all the answers!

  • Satellite L300D-11V - after the installation of new, I have a few questions

    I had an accident important a few weeks ago, that came out the main partition on my hard drive (even if the other partition appears to be very well) and I installed Windows XP Pro on a new hard drive to install Windows 7 in the near future.

    I found some drivers which I burned on disc, and install them on my new drive hard but now I have problems with her laptop in some areas:

    -I can't the USB ports to work at all even though I thought I installed the proper drivers.
    -I can't access Internet via WiFi even if the Ethernet connection works fine and I thought I had installed the correct drivers.
    -The Touchpad works very slowly and in some cases, it takes an age to click on something like an 'X' button to close the software or anything else...

    Can someone tell me how I can solve these problems as well as to get my laptop fully operational with Windows XP Pro.

    Your Satellite L300D PSLC0E models is. I checked the Toshiba download page and your laptop is not supported for Windows XP Home edition operating system.
    Toshiba doesn't offer any driver tested for your laptop model.

    You have installed not supported OS and now you want to have all the hardware components work perfectly. How? Someone needs to find the drivers for you or what?

    It will be best for you to use Vista supported, you got as a recovery image. To install Win7 is good idea and I can imagine your cell phone will be supported and all necessary drivers will be available in the future.

    I'll do the same thing with my A300.

  • Can I play games like Counter strike on Satellite L300d-11V

    Hello

    My Satellite L300D-11-v can play games like counter strike source?
    I installed, but they are unplayable.

    Any help please?
    U can change graphics shared in the Bios?

    Hello!

    I think that a Satellite L300 is not the laptop to play new games like Counter Strike Source. The Qosmio series is perfect for play.

    You have the latest graphics driver? Do not play on the higher quality settings, set it to medium or low.

    And if you buy a computer game on the back of the packaging are the required configuration. So that you can see if it s able to play (good) on your laptop.

    Bye!

  • On the Satellite P30-131 power problem

    I have a power problem and I tried the process of elimination, but could do with help, I gave as much detail as possible and appreciate any help or advice.

    This started a few weeks ago and seems to be deteriorating slowly.
    I turned on the laptop and all 3 lights before the main power on fully charged battery light and light green...

    I started noticing a few times when my power cord is plugged into the laptop that, without warning, the laptop switches to the battery power and also turns off power light, battery light turns off too but which may or may not happen, in any case the laptop is still on but now running on battery.

    I then out of the supply cable and reconnected it hoping that power is restored, but it has no effect, I have to close then low laptop unplug then Pug back in and I get all 3 lights and then I can start.
    Now, when I boot it does not always solve the problem and I can finish on a few seconds of starting battery.

    Its certainly not the battery because it has a new battery replaced 12 months however, its either the adapter or the connection inside the laptop that plugs into the adapter.

    The reason I think it is perhaps one of them is when the laptop going to battery, lead that is always plugged into laptop, I moved, and this can cause the return of t lights and also the laptop back in, power once again, but if I let go then it goes to the battery again one the light turns off. I also took the battery out and kicked and the laptop works but has lost the power sometimes when I moved it turned off my tour so I'm sure that it is related to the lead, but do not know if its internal or external.

    Any help or advice appreciated

    Thank you

    What kind of help did you expect exactly?

    > Its certainly not the battery as it was a new battery replaced 12 months however, its either the adapter or the connection inside the laptop that plugs into the adapter.

    It seems you have tested everything that could be tested using common control procedures, I think that more is not possible
    I can provide also a few suggestions and I m coming to the conclusion that neither electronic power supply is not ok or your power adapter.
    But I would tend to the first; electronic power supply.

    As you can see that these are only suggestions
