• Satellite L555 - 11 L - problem with keyboard

  Hello!

  I have a keyboard problem with my SATELLITE L555 - 11L. I noticed the first week after I bought it, so I think he's always been there.

  Description of the problem:

  It's as if some characters were swallowed, fairly regularly. It is not a specific key, it can happen on any character, about all 20 characters. Sometimes, on the contrary, some letters are doubled.
  It happens when I write fast. And this isn't always but: when I just plugged in my computer, it works fine. It seems that this happens after having been plugged in for a while. But I was not able to assess this 'time '. Sometimes, it is quite short (2 hours).
  If I keep a key pressed (all), the characters do not commonly appear on-screen. There are regular "jerks" (each 20 characters? I can't really measure).
  This is a very annoying problem, it annoys me when I write an email, that I often...

  What I tried:

  -It happens in every text field (Notepad, in a text box in IE, Firefox and Chrome, in MSN, etc...)
  -I am on WIndows 7. I tried on a CD bootable Linux (Ubuntu), the same problem appears
  -J' tried to write with an external USB keyboard: I do not reproduce the problem
  -with or without battery: same problem
  -J' I updated my BIOS with the update that is available on your site web (from 2010.03.12 if I remember correctly), but it changed nothing.

  I wrote my problem in a forum format hardware. Only one seems to have the same problem as mine. He returned to his PC to Toshiba, they changed the keyboard, but the problem is still there.

  I would like to know if this is a known issue and if you have suggestions of everything I could try before you contact Toshiba and let my precious computer for several weeks... (with the risk that it may return to the same State :().

  Thanks in advance!

  Helen.

  Hello

  I read in some forums on the same keyboard problem.
  Some characters were not displayed when you type faster
  I read that an update of the BIOS has helped a lot of guys has disabled the touchpad too and this has improved the performance of keyboard

  So I recommend you try it.

• Satellite Pro A120 battery problem

  Hi all

  I have a portable Satellite Pro A120 and is a battery problem a month ago.
  The battery is not new, but recently changed, 6 months ago.
  Until a few weeks ago, it lasted about 2 hours when full load, until this time
  suddenly dropped 30-40 minutes.
  In addition, sometimes the power of the laptop turns off when it's a few extra vibrations,
  for example, if I put it on a table without the maximum protection.
  In some cases, these, is not possible to turn on the laptop, unless I have remove the battery and put it back in place.

  I initially though that there was a problem with the battery or the battery contacts, but they seem ok.
  I tried to unload it in my laboratory of the company with a power resistance: resistance absorbed 1A continuously for more than 3 hours. As the specification 4400mAh battery, I would say that the battery is ok.

  Is it possible that I have a problem with the battery inside the pc management circuit?
  The battery stress test above seems to show that the charging process is ok. So the problem might be with
  the provision of monitor or battery power.
  Someone at - it experience of similar problems and maybe a solution.
  Or perhaps a work around? As excluding the battery monitoring and auto turn off

  Thanks in advance

  > Is it possible I have a problem with the battery inside the pc management circuit?
  Perhaps, but that's just a guess only a cellphone technician may provide an exactly the answer to this question.

  > Furthermore, sometimes the power of the laptop turns off when it's some additional vibration.
  for example, if I put it on a table without the maximum protection.
  In some cases, these, is not possible to turn on the laptop, unless I have remove the battery and put it back in place.

  It is very strange, I want to say if the contacts of the battery and the battery would be ok, this symptom shouldn't its sounds strange for me, so maybe that's the key why battery don't not lasts more than 30-40 min

  However, I think you should try a new battery before checking the motherboard.

• Satellite L555-11u keyboard problem

  Hello

  I wonder if a Toshiba representative could help me. I have recently (3 days ago!) bought a Toshiba laptop (Satellite L555-11u) and I noticed a problem
  with the keyboard. I can't use the 'L' key at all, and I hope that my hardware warranty for repair of this problem.
  I checked that all the drivers are installed and up to date and that there has been no physical damage to the keyboard or laptop.
  How I can get this problem solved in Ireland?

  Thank you

  RF

  Of course, the warranty will cover keyboard replacement, if necessary.
  In my opinion, you must contact your dealer as soon as possible. Usually, you have two weeks (depending on the country of purchase) duration shipping will return your product. So, try to contact your local dealer and try to get the replacement. I'm sure you can get the new laptop.

  If this does not work please contact authorized Toshiba service and explain the situation.
  To find the address and phone number visit the Toshiba support under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com page > support & downloads > find an ASP.

  Good luck.

• Satellite P300-172 battery problems

  Hello.

  Hope you all had a good Christmas and can hopefully help out me.

  I bought a laptop P300-172 awhile back.
  Now, even after the sinking of a large number of power settings, the battery life was poor.

  So I ordered a replacement from ebay (part 3rd battery) the battery is identical to the Toshiba battery in everyway of course the only difference is there was not an a toshiba.

  in any case, when the battery arrived I plugged it and the battery LED came on to show that he was charging, when I booted up my laptop (with vista) windows showed that there was no battery connected, I thought strange. But I did back and let it load, after an hour or two charging orange led started flashing which it never did.

  Still, I booted up vista and windows showed there is no battery connected. I have contcated the seller and assumes that the battery was faulty, as chance would have, he repaid the article and I went back to the normal toshiba battery.

  I had another battery, ordered through work and that is identical in every way, once again, except that it was another 3rd party battery and which does exactly the same thing.

  Can anyone help?

  I've updated to the latest version of the BIOS (3.9) and have tried many steps as leaving the laptop without the battery for 30 minutes and then insert the battery. update the bios.

  Well that's about all I can think and have read through the forums.

  I appreciate may give any information you guys! Sorry for the long message.

  If I were you I wouldn't assume more battery problems and return the phone to the place of purchase, if you can.

  The problem is out of your control, as you have tried multiple batteries. Just give him place of purchase to watch. Then less grief for you.

  Good luck.

• Satellite L850 - charger / battery problems, not normal...

  Hi all.

  First post and all, I had a glance through to see if I can find my particular problem, and I don't think I can.

  I posted this in another sub-forum, but then realized it's here... oops!

  A L850. It will work fine on battery, but only supplies not the charger cable. Helpfully, a colleague also has an another L850 (I bought two together) so I can charge my battery of separately in his machine.

  If I start the machine on a charged battery, it works fine. If you connect then the power adapter, the led is lit on the front of the machine, but it's clearly not load the machine works until the battery is flat and then turns off and will not turn on back until you charge the battery apart and put it back in.

  Whenever the machine is powered, it also complains that the RTC battery is flat, and you will need to set the time in the BIOS. It is the coin cell CR2032 internally on the motherboard isn't?

  what I don't understand, is that the unit understands clearly that the charger is plugged, as seers to say it is the battery. Except that it isn't, and is not to be unity. Œuvres battery for about 40 minutes of our days, after that, dead machine.

  Any ideas? I suppose that there is something wrong with the internal charging circuit, but the fact that the LED lights up when it is plugged suggests otherwise...

  Thanks for all the ideas.

  David.

  More information on this type of bit. When it is plugged in, the icon on the screen says "Plugged in, charge", but battery icon animates not charging about 10 seconds, then stops, and battery is clearly not charge as % drops away slowly.

  I found a Google one of them is the "remove all, hold for 30 seconds, reconnect power. This made no difference. I also found advice to uninstall the battery from the device manager driver software and allow it to re - install. This done, still no different.

  I got the hard drive and in a USB enclosure to retrieve all my files and am doing the 'factory restore' option I think that this is a restore hard disk partition. This work is far away, but in my opinion, is still running on battery only, so do not know if this is going to end!

• Satellite P10: Discharge battery problem

  Hi all. I just bought a P10 and I have a problem with the battery discharges while remaining on the current after being fully charged.

  Basically when the battery discharge the machine stops and cannot be restarted successfully until about 1/2 hour of charging.

  Surely if the machine is on the battery supply should be go to the opereation of the machine? Virtually all other laptops are not disturbed by the battery then on the sector.

  Is there a utility that disables this problem because there is nothing in the bios that is available to select. (BTW, I HAVE ISNTALLED LATEST VERSION OF THE BIOS).
  I also blew the hole thing with compressed air just in case there was a problem of overheating.

  Am Running XP Pro 512 MB DDR333Mhz 30Gig HDD 2.6 GHz P4

  All this makes me very frustrated and am really starting to regret to have bought the laptop.
  I've been a professional for 10 years now and have never experienced such a problem.

  Any help, advice, links or the fixes would be greatly appreciated so thank you very much in advance.

  Hello

  It s very strange.
  As far as I know the Toshiba power saver control power and cooling procedures.
  If the AC adapter is plugged in, the energy saver uses a profile of full power.
  If the laptop works with battery energy saver must use another profile with different parameters. You should check what profile is used and the settings for this profile.
  Check the CPU and cooling module parameters.

  But if this doesn't help then it could be something wrong with the hardware. But it's not easy to say what the problem is. In this case, you must contact the after-sales Service of Toshiba partner. It can start diagnostic tests.

• Satellite L300D-245 - battery problem

  I was using my laptop on battery only and all of a sudden it turned off even if she had 40% of power left and would not turn on. I plugged it into the outlet. the battery led doesn't light up. I turned on the laptop and everything was ok, but for the battery. the laptop read it, but it does not load. It's 40%, so I plugged it in, and it turns off immediately. the battery is now at 0% and the laptop runs on the power adapter only.

  the laptop is old, vista 1 year.

  Last week, I saw the same behavior on my laptop of a friend s. I'm not 100% sure but I think that the battery is defective. He has already ordered a new.

• Graphics problems in World of Warcraft on Satellite P200-123

  I bought a Satellite P200-123 to surf the net, play and for general use. I have read many reviews and chose the p200-123 because of his good grades. I play wow on a daily basis. World of Warcraft was an extension called burning crusade that came out a couple of years. When the expansion of BC the grx will all mess. Its as if there is a new effect of grx etc which does not agree with the toshiba range drivers. I get lots of polygons on the screen after being in the Burning Crusade expansion. I thought the grx was defective, so I exchanged it. Once again when I get the new laptop at home it happened again. It is a driver problem that it happens to the expansion of the BC. Ive tested it on other games and everything works fine. I want to know is we're going to have a bad selection of drviers or will they get updated.

  http://I219.Photobucket.com/albums/cc215/maltonbranch/WoWScrnShot_033108_213654.jpg

  To solve this problem, I have to change the resolution, then back to the setting I use. problems with polygons etc seems to leave for 5 minutes then the pips apear. I thought he could heat or a damaged GPU. But getting a laptop brand new just to do it again shows me his non-defective material and a driver problem.

  Ive posted this on world of warcraft forums and aparantly its a problem with the ATI driver toshiba shut down. Bottom line, I want to know if the drivers will be updated and not just old ATI modded those of toshiba. I feel ripped off the coast. In all my years of owning PCs and laptops, I never felt so disappointed by a company in terms of software support.

  Hello

  I understand you completely, especially when you play with a few new engine that requires pilots who work quite at 100%.

  Maybe you should check some 3rd third-party drivers.

  This driver have been adjusted for mobile systems, so when you try these, your problem should go away and performance are expected to increase a little.

  Welcome and good luck

• Satellite U940 - battery problem

  Hi, my battery LED doesn't turn on when it is plugged. My laptop is plugged in but does not support. AC adapter works fine. Is this a battery problem? Do I have to buy a new battery?

  Is this a battery problem?

  No doubt...

  Do I have to buy a new battery?

  If there is battery failure, the battery should be replaced.
  But if your warranty is valid I recommend asking an ASP in your country for assistance... perhaps it could be replaced in warranty...

• Re: Satellite T - battery problems

  My laptop battery will not charge when connected to the power terminal. I also have to remove the battery to turn on the laptop, it turns with the battery connected.

  Can someone give me some advice or do I have to return the battery?

  Hello

  The warranty is valid?
  If so, then get in touch with a local ASP because I m not quite sure if it s only a battery problem.

  Usually if the battery would be affected so you should always be able to turn on the unit.
  I think there could be something wrong that should be checked by an ASP.

  Good luck

• Satellite 1800-412/battery/screen? problem...

  Hello
  Sorry for the English, I will try to explain my prob
  I have a 1800-412 2 years old (out of warranty) and now big problems with the display when I'm working on it:
  Evry time I turn on the laptop, the screen flashes and nothing shows up except when I press the little button at the top right (this one is pulled down when I close the screen). Then the screen lights up for 5 or 10 seconds and new Moul. In fact, I can see the screen, but it seems that there is no brightness... It is very very bland out (?)...
  This problem seems to appear less often when I work only with battery full power, but is still there.
  I updated the bios 2-10 and updated display driver too.
  But nothing changes.
  Question: is this battery problem screen problem, bios issue...
  Thanks for the tips, I don't know what to do, and it is impossible to work now with this computer.
  someone has an idea of what I need to do?

  Thank you

  Hi frakk,.

  I think that there is a problem with the FL inverter connector pins. Take your distributor to service, they can fix.

  Good bye
