Satellite L305D-S5934 - after the stop, the light is always on

I just bought a Toshiba Satellite L305D-S5934 two weeks ago.

Here lately, I can't seem to stop completely. I select the closing down in the start menu. It seems closed down (the screen becomes black) but the power light is still, and I can hear noises inside as if it was still running.

I am running Windows Vista.

Hello

This question seems always? I mean is it a permanent status that your laptop won't turn on properly? Or is it that sometimes?

To my knowledge the Vista default action for the power in the Start Menu button is sleep. If your laptop does not but would go in the mode 'sleep'.
You can change it as described here:
http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/change-the-Windows-Vista-power-buttons-to-shut-down/

In addition, you should check if your BIOS is up to date.
Choose your model of laptop (it seems like an American series) and download the compatible BIOS.

Check it!

  • Satellite L305D-S5934 - after installation of XP that nothing works

    Recently I got an error with my Satellite L305D-S5934, it was Vista. It would be not only wouldn't boot so I had to install Windows XP, but now, nothing works.

    Is there something I can do to get the graphic video back to normal and the wifi and all that was at the factory on the laptop?

    Hi drftking23,

    > but now nothing works.
    Wow, very detailed! : D

    In any case, I think the problem is that you need drivers for your hardware to WLAN, LAN and all other devices don't work.
    Anything you need you can download on Toshiba U.S. page where you can find your laptop model:
    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com

    But let me give you a little advice: simply use the Toshiba recovery disc where all the drivers and tools are preinstalled. This disc contains a ready image of factory with all the drivers and tools, it s pretested and configured by Toshiba.
    Maybe it s an option ;)

  • Satellite L305D-S5934 Pro - keyboard will not perform a double click

    Hello

    I have Satellite L305D-S5934 and the keyboard does not work properly. I can use the keyapad to point but it wll not perform a double click. Left click will not work... I think it's a hardware problem, I have tried resetting everything and downloaded synaptics at least 3 times.

    Anyone have any suggestions?
    It does not work with a USB mouse. It is still under warranty, but the agent wants to keep my laptop for 6 weeks to fix while they get a part starting from the United States. and they don't test it for me for free so I'm not even sure this is harware related to 100%?

    Hope someone can help me, thanks

    Hello!

    Do you mean before the touchpad mouse left button or tap on the touchpad function?

    The listen function must be activated first. This means click on the left button of the mouse TouchPad.
    Go to control panel > mouse > device settings > settings > Tapping. There you can check if the function is enabled or not.

    Good bye

  • Satellite L305D-S5934 does not start - white screen

    I have a problem with a 2 years satellite l305d-s5934.

    In turning on, the power light turns on, but the hard drive light does not work and the screen remains blank.
    I tried removing the battery and reboot without it after pressing the power button, but nothing changes.

    Any advice on fixing the problem would be welcome.

    Thank you

    Hello

    Remove the battery, disconnect the power adapter and leave the laptop disconnected for a longer period of time. After that connect the two parties can try unit lights up once more

    If it does not, check the RAM. Remove the single module and test two slots with each module.
    Sure, it might be possible that the two modules are faulty and that the procedure could not help you.

    In the worst case the motherboard may be affected in one such case that mobo replacement would be useful.

  • Satellite A10 dies after the power LED blink

    Hello

    I have a problem with the power supply of my Toshiba Satellite A10. Sometimes, after the computer sat for some time, I have a problem with the power. The "plugged power cable" - LED will start to blink and shortly after, the computer just dies.

    It can also have the time to go into a lower energy state before he does. When it happened once, it will most likely happen also when I restart the computer, but after a much shorter time. WXP won't even have time to start. If I stop to select the source of start-up, the problem will occur anyway, this isn't the software. It should also be noticed that when the computer is not turned off, the 'smart power' - is on correctly.

    I know that my battery is not very good. Completely loaded, the computer can run for maybe 3 minutes with only the battery. I know that I must have a battery connected, even if I use the power cable, but this occurs even when the mine problem. The battery would be pretty bad not even allow me to use the computer with a cable?

    It should be added, that sometimes I can use the computer for long periods of time without this problem to happen. I also have a problem with the battery not being not properly in physical contact with the pins of the computer, but this isn't the problem here, because I have the same problem with the battery removed and me holding the battery in place.

    Thank you for your help.

    Hello

    You description is very long and detailed and it of still not easy to say what's wrong.
    Usually, the DC-In witness lights up green when DC is provided FRO the AC current. If the output voltage of the adapter is abnormal or if power outages, this indicator flashes orange.

    So I think that is your AC adapter malfunctions or there is something wrong with the electronic power supply on the motherboard.

  • Satellite A300-1J1 - after the installation of Kaspersky, the camera does not work

    Since the installation of Kaspersky internet security, my webcam does not work, message appears at windows startup, saying: he needs to be reinstalled. How can I do this?

    Also any idea if the sims 3 is likely to work well on this laptop?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello!

    Reinstall the webcam driver should be easy enough. You only have to download the driver for the webcam on Toshiba driver download page:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    If you have downloaded the new version, you can delete the old version in Add/Remove Programs, restart the computer, and then install the new version.

    Regarding the SIMS3, you should check the system requirements for the game first. This is a fairly new game, and the Satellite A300 is not the best gaming laptop so I think that the laptop is not fast enough for this game.

  • Satellite A205 freeze after the power connection

    My computer has this strange problem. It stops completely after that I have plug in the power supply.
    What I do now, it is let it recharge when it is off and use it without food.

    There is a chance that it works with the power connected, but generally, it stops again in the trunk.
    If the battery is low and I connect the power usually, it stops right after that I do, sometimes not.

    I also tried to install Linux. But the same thing happens (except by the fact Linux only stops in the trunk)
    I'm now using Windows Vista.

    Thanks for the time and sorry for the English.

    > any suspicion?
    As suggested above; It looks like an electrical problem on the motherboard power supply. Maybe the motherboard must be changed.

  • Satellite 2450-101 after the 60 GB HARD drive upgrade, made only to see 30 GB

    Hello world

    I'm new to this forum. I own a 2450-101, a little old man, real it´s, but still a very nice PC. Harman-Kardon louspeakers make it very useful for music.

    I would switch the HD, so I installed a new 60 GB (the maximum taken in charge, I said) and used the recovery CD.

    Everything worked perfectly, but it seems that only 30 GB can be seen by Windows. I heard, that I might need to update the BIOS. Mine is version 1.50.

    After a long search through sites Toshiba and the Inetrnet, I can only find updates the BIOS for the new models...

    only reference I've seen is on this page: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/faq.jsp?service=EU&FID=TRO0000000b07, but

    Yet once I don't find Bios for my model.
    Please any help would be really appreciated ;)

    Hello

    You are right. This laptop is a bit old, but very nice. It provides performance enough for someone in need of this laptop only for everyday use.

    As for you statement about 60 GB of HARD drive. Well, I m a bit confused.
    How did you check the size of the HARD drive and why you say that it recognize only 30 GB?
    How did you check that? And you are sure that you have installed and 60 GB HARD drive?

    I recommend to check the size in disk management!

    With regard to the BIOS;
    The BIOS for this laptop is on the Toshiba driver page:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    There, you have to search in archive Archive Satellite Satellite 24xx Satellite 2450-101.
    As far as I know the BIOS 1.50 is available on the page!

  • Strange devices satellite U300-15 after the new installation of 64 bit Vista

    I just got my Toshiba Satellite U300-159 (model No. PSU30E-07901NN5)

    It was a display model used in the store where I bought, so I wanted to do a clean install.
    Using the recovery cd did not work. (Something about some files than couln can't be read).
    It is a really bothers me not at all because I want to run it with a clean Vista anyway, so I jumped into a Vista Home Premium 64-Bit UK + SP1 and installed it.

    After that the installation was done, I ran windows update to get a little more drivers for the few items that not have installed correctly.

    After that almost everything worked very well.

    Except:
    I had two entries in the called Device Manager device Base System. They are found under 'other devices '.
    I have looked around the site of toshiba for the drivers, but can't find anything that seemed as if it was the thing that I was missing.
    (Actually I'm not sure I've found the correct support page. I learned to http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_sc_modSel.jsp and was able to select 3 versions of U300. U300 - ST3091, ST3092-U300, U300-ST3094)

    Everything on the PC works well: card reader, bluetooth, graphics card, wireless + LAN cable, keyboard shortcuts, sounds etc.
    The only thing that is not working is when I put it in mode "Eve". The screen goes black, the powerled stays on and the fans continue to operate. It is not possible to bring him back again if.

    Does anyone have an idea where to find these drivers?
    Or maybe just sort the problem of sleep difficulty?

    I reinstalled using the recovery CD and choose another language and thus skip the defective cd.
    But the sleep problem was still there.

    An update of the bios, mentioned in this thread: http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=32002&tstart=15 solved the problem.

    I have always an idea that both devices are well...
