• Satellite M30: Questions about the battery, SD, energy-saving card reader

  1. After looking through the forums, it seems that my problem is not uncommon: my Toshiba Satellite M30 seems to have a life of the battery for about 10 minutes. Power not connected to the adapter, Windows detects 100%... 99%... Then 3%. Throughout the life of the battery is about 10 minutes, and I don't know why. Does anyone know? (Info from BG: laptop about 2 years, not too used)

  2. How will I know exactly WHAT model of Toshiba Satellite M30 I? (There is a code after the M30-part - I need this to find out what batteries I need to buy to replace)

  3. What is the nearest Service Center, I can talk to the United Kingdom with regard to my battery problem? From Toshiba Web site lists 20 companies different with Toshiba in them to the United Kingdom, and I have no idea which we touch!

  4. my SD card reader is a bit faulty. To put a SD card, no message appears to recognize the card - the laptop just doesn't recognize at all, and I do not see "SD card" or equivalent in "My Computer". However, if I put an SD card, and then restart the computer, I can see the SD card, it simply does not update while the computer is on, when I restart - cures for this?

  5. Finally, can I download the software of management of TOSHIBA POWER SAVER? I downloaded from this site but right now the only option when I open the TOSHIBA CONSOLE is 'Mouse' - there is no standby power options or network options or anything.

  Thanks in advance, sorry there are so many questions and they are so different!

  Cheerio,

  Hello

  1) looks like a dead battery. It s not unusual that the battery will discharge performance after about 2 years. As far as I remember, you can load and unload the battery for about 500 times. After this period, the lifetime battery decreases faster. The same symptom occurs for example with a cell phone battery. I think you should ask the new battery Toshiba service partner. PS: The guarantee covers the battery for about a year.

  (2) it's very easy at the bottom of the unit, you will find a label with the serial number and the name of detailed specifications.

  (3) visit this site:
  http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/Su/su_gaspLocator.jsp?PF=true
  You will find the database with ASP together all over the world. These guys are responsible for replacements, repairs, etc.

  (4) number of SD card is very strange. On my Satellite SD card window opens if I insert the SD card. You can try to remove the SD card from the Device Manager reader and after that new reboot, the OS should has new charge card CD driver. Eventually, it helps.

  (5) I don't know what you mean exactly but on the Toshiba driver page, you will find the tool power Toshiba compatible and taken in charge. If you have downloaded from the area Sat M30 driver so I think you can use it only on this laptop.

• Satellite A210 - question about the battery life

  I have a problem: my laptop works only 1 hour of unplugged to electricity, so my battery died after working of 55minutes (I mean I look at the pictures or typing in WORD). Is this normal? How long is the average battery life?
  My model is SATELLITE A210/1AP (4000mAh) (my laptop is new; I bought it a week ago)
  Please write how much your maximum battery work.

  It is not easy to discuss this topic. With similar activity, I can use my Satellite A200, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. I don't know how you're using your laptop, but I recommend you to use all the power settings that can make the life of the battery a little longer.

  Check the method of cooling, power profile, reduce the brightness of the display and turn off WIFI if you do not use and so on.

  You must also understand that Vista needs far more resources than Windows XP Home edition and the life of the battery under Vista is not identical with Windows XP Home edition.

• Question about the battery life of the Satellite L40-139

  It's maybe a stupid question, but I have a portable Satellite L40-139 and the battery lasts less time, is this correct.
  In the power management, I chose energy-saving. I used to be a mobile system and it could take 2-3 hours. The answers would be great.

  The laptop uses Vista. Am I wrong?
  Well, I don't wonder that you can run Notepad only for an hour approximately.
  Vista needs for more resources as a BONE at the beginning. In addition, there are a few bugs in Vista, who have a bad influence on the performance of the battery!
  You can perform a search in internet for Vista and the problem of battery on laptops and you will find a lot of information.
  The same laptop with XP runs twice as long on battery as with Vista.

• Satellite R830: Question about power for battery usage options

  Hello world

  I recently bought a R830-182 (detailed configuration below).
  I had to update Windows 7 Home Premium Ultimate because I need to use it on my university network.

  My University gives us an upgrade to windows 7 ultimate edition, but I had to do a clean install (from inside Windows 7 Home Edition, copy the upgrade you can do).
  The key, with what they gave me would not work with the Windows anytime upgrade utility.

  I think that I have installed everything that I need to get the laptop to work, but I'm not sure of the configuration of the battery. The cooling fan seems to be always on, and when the battery reaches 100% charge that he also said that he is in charge.

  My questions are:
  1. is there another program I have to install to allow the computer manage settings of the battery?
  2. do I need to change some settings in the power options?
  3 should. what settings I change in power options?

  Any help would be welcome
  Kind regards

• Question about location battery RTC on Satellite A50-110

  Hello
  I need to replace the battery on my 110 SA50 RTC.
  Where can I find the battery in my laptop?

  Thanks for any help provided.

  James

  Hello

  Usually this should be replaced by the service partner or a technician with more experience as a common user like me and your.
  You know, books are a bit different as a desktop PC where the replacement is a little easier.
  However, as far as I know the RTC battery is placed near the LAN plug and modem jack and the cooling module. You need to remove the keyboard and the capital to replace something.
  In addition the RTC battery is covered by the RTC battery case.

  But as I said at the beginning, if you have no experience to ask ASP for help.

• Satellite 4090xcdt / question about CPU upgading & batteries

  Hello

  I just joined the forum. Looks really good.

  I inherited a satellite 4090xcdt (PAS409EYX-ENX). He had 4 gig ' ish HDD, Celeron CPU (300 or 400 MHZ?), 64 MB of RAM and win 98.

  me and my boyfriend has replaced the HARD drive with 80 GB model (the original was on his last breath), upgrade of RAM as it could by adding a key to 256 MB to the current 64 MB.

  It helps a lot and allows us to run Win XP Home and now added a wireless card.

  2 questions.

  I can get a Celron M 700 MHz processor - I can it whack in the 4090xcdt?

  Is there a good source cheapish of spare batteries - as the mounted one, last about 5 minutes when it is turned off!

  Thnaks for the search - any help appreciated.

  Hello

  OK, I studied a little and it seems that this laptop has an Intel Celeron 400 MhZ CPU.
  To my knowledge it s not advisable to replace the CPU s on the laptop. Some CPU is soldered on the Board.
  Of course, I read some reviews on the replacement of the CPU, and some people were able to replace or upgrade. BUT laptop computers did not work properly. Sometimes, don t cooling modules work or BIOS have had problems with the APCI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface).
  In my opinion you shouldn't do it! Perhaps you may also damage the motherboard.

  Well, you should also always use the Toshiba battery recommended. A bad battery can damage the laptop. As far as I know the battery on this laptop should have these properties:
  Lithium Li-ion 10,8 V, 3, 600 mAh, reference number: PA2487U

  You should be able to buy these batteries in every store of the laptop. Of course, you can also contact the Toshiba ASP in your country. Here, you can order the original.

• Satellite L670 question load - pink battery led

  Hey,.

  My laptop (Satellite L 670) often has a charging problem.

  First, the laptop runs normally, the power cord is connected and the battery correctly.
  That, however, the adapter is still plugged, all of a sudden the loading stops.

  At the same time two of the first three LEDs indicating the change:
  * Mode: adapter = white LED, power LED = white, battery LED = red-orange
  * Mode problem: adapter = white LED, power LED = no light, battery LED = Rose & flashing

  A few additional notes:

  -Sometimes when I go out to reconnect en loading adapter starts again, but sometimes it has no effect.
  -When the laptop is in sleep mode or stop charging happens without any problem.
  -If I remove the battery and the laptop works only on the adapter, there is no problem.
  -J' get the feeling that the workload problem often takes place when the fan starts or stops turning.

  No idea what my cause the problem?
  A broken battery or an adapter?
  A trainee problem?

  Thank you

  On the virtual path that is not easy to say with certainty what the problem may be, and we can only speculate what is the problem. In my opinion there is a problem with electronic power supply, so it must be checked by the Toshiba service provider.

  I have a similar problem with the old Satellite P200D. I ve tested with two adapters CA / CC and two batteries. The problem is always the same, so it must be a question of power.

  Is the warranty for your laptop still valid?

• Re: Satellite C660 - new slow charge battery

  A few days ago, I bought a new battery (10.8V, 4400mAh) on Amazon (from Batterytec) for my Toshiba Satellite C660-13 q PA3817U-1BRS, 10.8V, 4200mAh.

  The problem is that this battery takes approximately 12 hours to charge: it is very very slow!

  I've done a complete charge cycle to calibrate and the battery life is 2 hours and 25 minutes, after calibration. With the original toshiba (fault) battery, I never had this problem.

  What can I do to solve the problem of the "slow charge"?
  What is a battery fault?
  such behavior is normal?

  Thanks in advance

  Have you bought original Toshiba with sticker Toshiba battery or it is another brand (universal battery)?

• Re: My Satellite L doesn't charge battery

  Hello

  I'm new to this forum. Excuse me for my English, I'm Belgian, so I hope you understand my questions :)

  My laptop works fine as long as I keep it is plugged but battery does not charge. As soon as I unplug it it stops working.
  My warranty has not yet expired, but I can't find anything on the site all I have to do.

  What so you should contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.
  If the battery is defective, I hope you'll get a new free.

  One last thing: remove the battery and start your laptop with AC power only. When Windows is loaded put the battery in place. Battery is correctly recognized? He is responsible or not?

• Question about the battery warranty

  Hello

  I own a satellite L300 and with everest, I discovered that my 10 month battery has a capacity of 12% loss.
  It is still under the 1 year warranty.
  I searched everywere and I couldn't find specific conditions for warranty Toshiba battery, so I want to know if it qualifies for replacement.

  Thank you.

  In my opinion these questions, you should clarify with the nearest Toshiba service provider.
  If you have some physical problems then service is the right place where you can ask for help advice and expert.

  By the way: I don't think that tool Everest is relevant for the verification of the hardware features.

• Satellite A30 - question about the CPU temperature

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite A30 (model name: SA30-151, model number: PSA33E). I had the usual problems with overheating and closing, where I had to clean the radiator.

  My question is, how hot the CPU must sit at and what temperature is dangerous?

  I installed 'Hardware sensors Monitor' and the average temperature is about 55 c, but I saw it happen at 70 c when I'm pushing it.

  I was not able to find something on the net about it and I can't find information on the Toshiba site.

  Any help or advice would be appreciated, thanks...

  The same temperature is on my Tecra M1. Believe me, there's really no reason to panic.

• Satellite L40 - question about the CPU temperature

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L40 17 Q with Intel Celeron M CPU.

  The usual device temperature is about 60 degrees Celsius. I read that the Tj to this type of processors is 100 degrees Celsius.

  So my question is dedicated to the owners of laptops equipped with Intel Celeron M processors and of course for the hardware gurus.
  Is the operative temperature of 60 degrees Celsius of normal, and if not how do I decrease.
  My laptop is new and I make sure that the air flow openings are not jammed.

  Thank you in advance!

  Hello

  Don't worry, the CPU temperature. 60 degrees Celsius is certainly within the normal range, and there is no reason to worry about this. On my laptop Tecra, I noticed the temperature CPU about 62 degrees Celsius and drive HARD around 40 degrees Celsius.

• R40 | a question about the battery

  Hi, I need advice.

  I have a Thinkpad R40.

  I had no problem until I got the malware Mirar.

  I took in a center of the computer room to have my data backed up and re-installation of the operating system.

  When I came back, the battery showed a 67% charge - which descended rapidly evenwhile hung to the sector.

  He remained at 0% since then.

  Before that, it would cool up to 97-99% and I could get at least 30 minutes of work on batteries - which was key for me.

  Now I can not even one second of work powered by batteries.

  I asked at the store, and they have confirmed that this is the same battery.

  My questions are,

  1. a battery can disappear within three days?

  2 - is a kind of a driver related issue that I can check?

  Thanks in advance for your advice

  Thank you all,

  I could not even "shock" he gives life to

• Satellite C650 - Question about cooling fan

  I recently bought the Toshiba Satellite C650 with processor i3 Intel and Windows 7 Home. When I see the bottom cover there are no holes for the cpu cooling fan intake air (there only the circle mark on the case under the cooling fan). Pls confirm me it is a manufacturing defect or not.

  I also ran a cpu + the base temperature software and find core temp goes up to 72 ° C in one step and I feel very hot blowing through the radiator.

  Hey Buddy,

  > When I see the bottom cover there are no holes for the cpu cooling fan intake air
  Who is normal and it s according to the laptop and the material. Different laptops have different cooling systems. This would mean that there are some laptops with no holes directly under the fan air intake. For fresh air holes are placed elsewhere to generate some air flow. If the other pieces of equipment can be cooled as well.

  There are already some threads here in the forum and as you can see it's really normal:

  How did you check the temperature?
  Always it is if everything works well don t care about the temperature. In this case, that the laptop could overheat, it would off himself to protect the equipment. ;)
