Satellite L305-S5955 and starting problems

Hello
I have problems with my toshiba Satellite L305-S5955 to departure. When I push the Start button, sometimes it starts, sometimes not (even when it is in sleep or hibernate mode, press a button or the Start button don't work every time), and it is independent of the battery failure or AC power, I checked before. I took it to a repairman, continue and founder of failure has taken a lot of time, at the end, it works very well, but just two days. He said that the problem was in the bios. Now, I still have the same problem.
-Bios version is 2.02. (never did an update).
-OS: Windows Vista Home Basic.

Can someone please help, or have the same problem to share.

Thanks for reading.

I doubt s a BIOS problem, I think that it s more material related

You can try this workaround simply:
Unplug the adapter of the theca and remove the battery.
Wait a while (2-3 hours) and reconnect the two parts.
Then try to turn on the device

If that does not help, then I guess that the question must be related to a problem on the electonic power motherboard or power that belongs to a mobo

    Hi John,.

    You have already reinstalled Windows with Toshiba Recovery disk (factory settings)?

    If Yes, it could be a hardware problem, otherwise, it looks like a software problem or driver.

  • Satellite A100-495: strange starting problems & freezes

    Hey guys.

    I recently got my Satellite A100-495 back from repair - it had a power problem (no led was flashing and it does not start of course). They told me that the motherboard has been renewed.

    Now, I have the following two issues:

    (1) it freezes suddenly sometimes in windows after 1-2 hours of operation without problems and I have to hold the power button for a few seconds restart

    (2) I press the power on button, LEDS are underway but the screen remains black, sometimes becomes gray, hard drive makes noise, fans going on but it just does not start, do not show anything. After some tests, I have to start but once again crashes after a couple hours of functioning properly.

    Can someone tell me what is the problem here?

    Bad memory (RAM) can cause this.

    If you can get it to start, test the memory with Memtest on a bootable CD. www.memtest.org

    Otherwise, try the combination of the different memory card. If you have 2 sticks of memory, try with one stick, then try the other stick, try different locations.
    Often the memory pins can oxidize and cause problems. To clean the pins, use a pencil eraser/rubber and rub the pins of module memory.
    Be careful when you handle the memory, you can zap easily memory with static electricity. To make sure that you are connected to the earth when the memory handling.

  • Satellite Pro 4270 and network problems

    I just got a laptop, Toshiba Satellite Pro 4270... I installed win 98 on it and it works beautifully.

    But then I added LAN PCMCIA card in computer and wanted to do some sufring. I encountered a problem.

    In the next devices, win98 reports error handler:
    The NDIS. VXD, NTKERN. VXD or Chargers device for this device could not load the device driver. (Code 2).

    The card is 3Com Fe575C and I downloaded the latest drivers from www.3Com.com/warranty, but that did not help. I also ran regclean and reinstalled the card after that. Always the same fault. With my own laptop (win2k pro), the card works perfectly with no additional drivers, so the map itself is not defective.

    In addition, the Win98 find PCI card when starting, but I have no driver for that... Where can I get that? It does not specify which card that is...

    Hello

    I guess it is Win 98 Second Edition You are using on the 4270.
    Please go to driver download site and download the INF-update to the PC Card controller. I think this should solve your problem.

    While you are at it download the other drivers you need more.

  • Satellite A210 - 11K - serious starting problems

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A210 - 11K which has recently developed serious problems with start up. It makes a very loud beeps when I turn on the laptop.

    Sometimes, the automatic recovery feature manages to recover the boot process and I can use the laptop as usual. But, at other times, I get a message indicating that automatic recovery could not repair the beginning upward and then I have to turn off the power for a day or two and try again.

    The laptop also sometimes stops working after about half hour usage.
    Please can someone help?

    Hello

    To be honest, the issue described doesn't sound like a software / system related problem, but nevertheless I think that you should try the s for laptop system recovery using the Toshiba recovery disc (of course if it is available).

    In case you n t have this recovery media, I recommend you try the system reset using Microsoft own disc. essential drivers are available on the Toshiba driver page.

    If the system recovery would not work, a hardware problem (HARD drive?) may be the reason why the laptop can not boot the system properly. But it is just a presumption

    However, I think that's a good point to begin troubleshooting

  • Satellite A100 heating and fan problem

    Hello

    I will try to describe my problem in detail because I so hope that it might help!

    I have a 5 years A100-011, Nvidia 7600 Go satellite. Recently, I fixed a display problem that I used to, however, this time (two weeks ago) him comes from the computer laptop back from the workshop with this heating problem. Which is the first time! The problem is the fan.

    When I start the PC, the fan works like it ti be long, maximum for 3-4 seconds. After that the fan barely works! According to me, the air coming out but very very low! less than how it is used for years! I came back to the same place, I corrected the PC. They checked and claim his fine and work! So, I give it a shot and tried the PC.

    Unconsciously, there is problem. Because the temperature of the GPU that has the problem, idling about reaching 60 c (SpeedFan) and goes high (65-67) while surfing the net! And using this way too much for internet!

    What makes it even worst fan always at the same speed very slow! The speed can increase little when he reached 67c!

    In this way, I can not use any high performance program, because the PC becomes more heated then stop.

    Note: I tried the following:
    1-BIOS (latest version) no available fan control
    2 power settings does nothing and there is no option of cooling method
    3 - fan control software. Unfortunately, nothing has worked

    I don't really know what the problem is! Given that the fan works but not all the time and why the GPU gets hot without doing something really serious! What is a cleaning problem? If so, why the fan does not reach its maximum speed at this temperature. !

    I hope I am fine help and answer here!
    PLS help!
    Thank you

    I agree with the user Notepad Akuma is 5 years old and I think that there is a lot of dust and debris inside the cooling modules that prevent fans from running correctly.
    Air can circulate properly and therefore the temperature rises
    So what to do?

    You can use a jet of compressed air to remove dust from the fans that I'm doing this regularly and it helps to clean the fans

  • Satellite A30 hibernation and activation problems

    Hello

    I got my PC toshiba laptop satellite A30 for 14 months now and have had no major problems so far. whenever I have disable my laptop or put it into hibernation, it restart normally the next time I use it, it is just like if it starts, then stops and turns off by itself and will be repeated again and again until I have remove the power cable and remove the battery, then put it back in and restart, and then it is normally.

    I checked and remove all viruses on my hard drive, but this issue concerns me.

    does anyone have an idea why this is happening?

    Thank you

    Hello

  • Satellite L450D - stops and starts again

    Toshiba Satellite L450D
    SER., no. 9442472 K

    Problem. Have a problem with the start. Unable to work, safe mode, safe mode etc. etc. (with the help of F12) or alternative start using (F2)

    Used system recovery disks created with Toshiba recovery Media Creator.

    Now have a never-ending cycle of
    Setup for the 1st use
    Welcome screen
    Please wait
    do not interrupt the closing down.

    Computer stops and the cycle begins again to infinity.

    Please tell us what steps should I take.

    Hello

    The computer really closes or is that only a reboot? The latter I think that everything is ok with your laptop. If you use the Toshiba recovery disc, the computer starts quite often until the installation is complete, this could happen 10 times.

    If your laptop really stops immediately, I think that it s a hardware malfunction and you should contact the nearest authorized service provider. In my view, that the technicians can help you! :)

  • Satellite Pro A100 and load problems

    Hello everyone. New Member here.

    Got a huge problem with my laptop. I have a satellite pro A100-830. Part number: PSAACE-00W002EN. About 2 years ago

    I can run on the current system. But it will not work on battery. I just bought a new battery and it shows on the computer.
    I get indications are:

    battery charge amber lit.
    Light on power
    Power meter indicates the battery charge. I connected new battery and it shows 47% and now 3 hours later its still 47%
    If I unplug the power to the computer shuts down and will not work on battery.

    the AC light seems to be slightly duller than the one next to him, if that makes sense.

    Ive tried updating the BIOS etc but I'm ideas if im honest as im not a computer pro. I searched the internet but I can't find an answer

    Huge thanks in advance

    Stand by.
    We need more explanation here.

    You have the same problem with the battery and you have bought one new in the hope that everything will be OK?
    Have you noticed the same problem with the battery?
    You bought original Toshiba battery?

    In my view BIOS update won't help you much. I think electronic power is responsible for this BIOS update ahs no influence on this.

  • Satellite Pro M70 and chariging problems

    Hello everyone,

    I wonder if anyone can help me with my problem, my Satellite Pro M70 sometimes does not load when I put the charger into the socket, if I out of the power supply and leave it for 2 days I have costs for a period of time up to 20 hours, and then did the same thing.

    I tried to turn it on without the battery, to check whether the problem is with him, but he turns. So this led me to believe the problem isn t the battery.

    Can anyone help?

    > have tried to turn it on without the battery, to check if the problem is with him, but it won't turn
    You mean the power of t n for laptop up connected to the sector, but without battery plugged in?

    Hmmm, to me this looks like a bit of a problem with AC adapter or an electrical problem of power offers the Board of Directors. As you probably knew that, it is really difficult to provide suggestions without touching the laptop.

    First of all, you can check if the machine uses latest BIOS. If this isn't the case, update the BIOS.
    Check if the laptop would go also without battery and only connected to the network.

    If this does not work, then the adapter should be verified.
    If the AC adapter is ok, then, the motherboard must be verified

  • Tecra A2 and starting problems

    I m using a Tecra A2 now for 5 years. The last few months a problem when starting accurse.

    Normally all the icons for the programs that I need as the printer, graphics for 2 mobile screens control, program backup, its, etc. are in the status line at the bottom of the screen to the left. This is useful to quickly obtain information and access programs. But from time to time, this status line is therefore more complete. Even the arrow to display hidden icons disappeared.

    Just recently, I discovered a rather unorthodox solution.
    When I put a blank DVD in the drive, open the file manager, try double click to open the drive, the message: Please check the CD in drive d: / is considered.

    When I try to close on the X window close program (because the DVD is not responding) accurse, one I click to close immediately.
    That hangs in the display, after a certain time the missing icons are all included.

    Does anyone has a similar problem and could solve it? Toshiba hotline gave me the advice to format the hard drive and restore the system. This should be the last option.

    Hi Torsten

    It's really hard to say why all this is happening...

    Maybe you should clean the Windows registry using CCleaner. It s worth a try! ;)

    On the issue of DVD player, maybe you have to clean the lens using microfibre cloth and be careful if you clean.

    Last but not least, I can only agree with Toshiba customer service. You must reinstall Windows using Toshiba recovery disc. It only takes a few minutes and then you have a clean OS with all the drivers again. :)

  • Satellite M40-184 and noise problem

    I bought two days ago, this laptop and I already found two problems. The first is that always before the speakers seem to start working a strange noise (ICT) and it is very annoying for me. Is there a problem with the speakers.

    The second problem is that when I use the laptop for more than two hours the AC adapter also makes a very annoying noise. He is also very strong (more strong that fans or anything else). Is it normal to do what noise?

    Thank you

    Hi Manos,

    I'm not sure of the sound from your speakers, normally I wait till they're totally calm, unless a job is running that use.

    Regarding your power adapter, should make any noise at all. It can become hot for what is quite normal. I would recommend the adapter/notebook back to your provider as soon as possible.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite L350 issues and start-up

    I hand the phone on screen Toshiba, it loads and then after about 5 seconds, I get a continuous beep.
    The first time this happened I left it for about 3 minutes then help the power button on and off, now when I boot it it asks if you want to load normal or repair mode that ever I choose, what is the same thing.

    Help please!

    Hello

    Try recovery Notepad using the Toshiba HDD recovery option.
    Start the laptop, choose repair my computer, then a new window should appear and you may choose recovery Toshiba.
    This should start the recovery procedure.

    Notes; before that you would do that unplug all devices connected to the portable computer (printer, scanner, external HARD drive, etc.)

    If this is not possible then I guess that it could be related to a hardware problem, but it is really hard to say what might be bad.

  • Satellite A105-S4014 and fingerpint problem

    Hello!

    I have Satellite A105-S4014 (PSAA8U-O2200U) with Vista Ultimate and there is a problem of fingerprint reader. When I try to register my fingerprints (UPEK) using Protector Suite 5.8.0 program hangs for a while and then displays an error message: an internal error has occurred (rpnpipe:rpnpipe: No. - svr (00000001fusserver)).

    For the fingerprint reader does not work.
    I did a little research, tried the latest drivers and soft - nothing helped.
    I also in the BIOS disabled TPM (I can't change) and I have a feeling that it is connected with my fingerprint reader problem (correct me if I'm wrong).

    I upgraded my BIOS to 6.0 before this problem. Then I found on a forum for decommissioning of the BIOS to enable the TPM. So I downgraded to 5.1. Nothing works. Also I know that some manufacturers provide a BIOS setting that hides the TPM by default module.

    Can someone help me to enable TPM in the BIOS or better give advice to get the fingerprint reader working?

    Hello

    Your ad is a little confusing, but I'll try to help you as much as I can.

    First, the Satellite A105-S4014 laptop belongs to the American TV series and was designed for the American market. Therefore all the drivers, tools or utilities must be downloaded from the page of the American pilot.
    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/Su/su_sc_modSel.jsp

    This page provides the Toshiba Fingerprint Utility for Windows Vista and XP. You must have version * 5.6.0 Build 322 published 08/12/2006 *.

    Remove your old application and perhaps not compatible and install this new v5.6.0 one.

    Good bye
