Satellite M100 lights when AC is unplugged

I got my M100 today. Plugged AC to charge the battery, it works, does some stuff, then off and let the battery. Now, I unplugged the power supply and can not turn on - no reaction on button / stop. Although, just ok plugged AC lights.

What is more, if I turn on when plugged in AC, the computer starts and then I unplug the mains cable - it works well on the batteries and the battery seems ok (20% in 20 minutes, heavy load).
Any ideas what might be the problem?

Thank you.

Hello

It is a new unit. In this case all replacements and repair procedures should be made free of charge. I'm sure the service guys will do a great job.

Greetings

  • Satellite M100 - no battery light

    Hello

    My Satellite M100 has a problem with the power. He has started about a month ago, when my computer turns off suddenly, and the power light is the only one left on, no battery light. The problem seemed to disappear, but recently the gaming laptop upward again. It stops randomly, or the power led will Flash quickly. And the battery light will turn on for half a second and turn off.

    Any ideas, thanks in advance

    > It shuts down randomly, or the power led will Flash quickly. And the battery light will turn on for half a second and turn off.
    Very strange but sounds like something wrong with the electronic power supply on the motherboard.
    If the power led starts flashing then that would mean that a material error has been detected on the motherboard

    But just a question;
    Are you able to use the laptop connected only to battery or only adapter?
    Problems of charging the battery?

  • Satellite M100-165 cannot stop - lights up immediately

    Hi all!

    Here's my problem: whenever I have shutdown or Hibernate my Satellite M100-165, it will light within 5 seconds. Standby does not either - instead of normal going in standby mode (power LED turn orange) it shuts down completely and has the force of will to 5 seconds upwards again and freeze. The computer only lights when plugged into power alternative, with or without a network cable. Wake-on-LAN is disabled. No other event trail is accessible from the menu of the BIOS Setup.

    I tried the system restore to a date before the problem was uccured, I've updated the BIOS, uninstalled and reinstalled Toshiba Power Saver utility, set closing the lid to take no action, scanned with HijackThis and found no suspicious processes.

    The problem started shortly after I installed Motorola Phone Tools (i.e., a driver of USB modem for my mobile phone). I don't know if that could be related but uninstalled/reinstalled the software nothing works.

    Any suggestions are welcome. Thank you.

  • Satellite M100 - screen turns white when you press the bottom of the frame of the screen

    Hello

    I have a strange problem with my Satellite M100.

    When to start the laptop, the screen is totally blank.
    When hand press to the middle part of the bottom of the frame of the screen (black plastic frame) the display looks fine, as long as I am pressing on it.
    When let pressing, the screen becomes funny,

    Also noticed, when top screen downstairs, appears blurry white screen.
    But the screen is OK as long as I pressed the plastic at the bottom of the screen frame.

    Any idea would be greatly appreciated, want to confirm which part is faulty, so I can avoid replacing the whole LCD.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    For as far as I know the small part called FL inverter is hidden behind the frame s screen.
    Maybe it s something with this part. Who knows it would be necessary to test this
    On the other hand, one cannot rule out a display problem

    You see, it's hard to say, really a malfunction which part
    Therefore, it would be advisable to contact a technician for laptop

  • Screen does not light after the start, but after standby on Satellite M100

    Hello
    I have some experience with computers and laptops, but this problem exhausted all of my knowledge.
    My girlfriend has a Toshiba Satellite M100, PSMA1E. He currently works on Windows XP, SP3.
    The laptop has always had problems closing/stand bye. He would stand bye and the screen would not. She would usually be manually turn off (holding the power button) and restart.

    Same thing happened last week, but with me. I turned off the power button but when I turned it on the screen was completely black. After a few attempts, I realized that everything worked; I could hear the usual audio files and XP Boot, but there was no way I could get the job of the screen.

    The strangest thing is that the CMOS/BIOS, one with the Toshiba logo settings screen, also does not appear. If it's an OS problem, I thought that I would be able to access the BIOS at least, but it does not work. FN + F5 does not work.

    Then, strange yet something happened. I was turning it on and off with keyboard shortcuts and I realized that if I put on stand bye using shortcuts and then go back on the screen turns on perfectly well (there is a cause of adjustment resolution icons are irrelevant, but it works perfectly fine).

    From that on I tried everything I know. Update the BIOS, all Windows XP updates, all Toshiba QuickFix, cleaning the registry with different tools, uninstall and reinstall the video driver (ATI Radeon X 1400) utility, shortcuts keyboard, power saver, tools hardware Toshiba, looking to start up programs, services, everything I could possibly think off.

    What intrigues me is that the Toshiba start screen will not be displayed. I can't access the BIOS, but I tried to restore the standard values of the BIOS with Toshiba hardware tools. It did not work. I don't even know if reinstalling XP will work because whenever I turn it on it is all black and I have to make the stand bye / Tower on Tower.

    When I have it plugged into an external monitor, I could see all starting the process (initial screen of the BIOS and Windows). I then tried to access the video driver display configuration but it would show only the external monitor. It would only detect the laptop screen after a stand bye / turn back on, and then it worked perfectly: the screen two screens simultaneously, extended, everything. Ah, changing BIOS selection automatic the LCD + external monitor does not work.

    I am really puzzled here and I can't understand it. I really don't think it's a hardware problem, because the screen works 100% after the stand bye. I guess that XP is do something during the closing down that completely 'stops' my screen, even after starting, and then I can only turn it on with the thing stand bye.

    Any help would be really appreciated!

    Best,

    Hi guys

    I had a similar problem on a series of Satellite A200 and I could solve works to update the BIOS and update the graphics driver.
    In addition, you must make sure that all available MS fixes and patches have been installed.

    Unfortunately, but that's all I can suggest. If the problem persists and you would not be able to solve update components then an ASP needs to check.

    Good luck

  • Satellite M100-233: stops right after the "XP" logo

    Hello
    I have a Satellite M100-233 with XP Home Edition SP3 (in Portuguese)
    When it is connected to the mains and the battery is not fully charged, sometimes the yellow light does not shine.
    Check the voltmeter application when this happens, tells me that the battery is on, the energy source is the sector, but the battery runs down.
    As I continue to use the laptop, the amount of the battery is reported as progressively less, until he tends to zero, then the laptop just turned off, as if she was not connected to the mains.
    Even if I start with the battery charged to 100%, after a couple of hours (sometimes more, sometimes less) the same thing happens.

    From an authorized dealer, they told me that it was probably a short battery shorted out.

    Get not that: * if she take the battery out of the laptop and turn it on:
    -Most of the time it turns off right after the "XP" logo.
    -It seems that this happens more often when the battery was fully charged the last time that I used it (strange! "I imagine this?)
    -Also sometimes happens after that I use the laptop for a while

    The only unusual bios message I get is "no TPM or TPM has a problem." I guess it has to do with the cryptographic protection, so I imagine that this has nothing to do with this issue.
    About two years ago, there was a problem with the battery (it ceased to be recognized as present by the laptop) which has been repaired under warranty: they told me that they had replaced the motherboard then. However, at this time there that I could continue to work normally without the battery, which is not the case now.

    I would be grateful for any advice. The most annoying is that this problem follows an irregular pattern, and the diagnosis, the dealer gave me seems hard to believe. As I use my laptop to collect data for research abroad, it is quite a risk for me to use it if I can't be sure when it will turn off on its own.

    Hello

    To be honest, I doubt that anyone here in the forum would be able to provide an exactly the answer to this question
    I think that it of almost impossible to say what's wrong without running any hardware checks.

    But to me it looks like a card mother number possibly it s power of electronic power supply which is part of the motherboard.

    What to say, maybe you need a new motherboard, but the new mobo is an expensive item, and in my opinion, you should first check if it is s to replace the motherboard or buy a laptop second hand for the same money.

  • Satellite M100-165 cannot stop - turns on automatically after a few seconds

    Hello!

    Link: [http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=109125]

    When I try to turn off my Satellite M100-165 ("shut down" in Windows or even by pressing the power button while I'm in BIOS) it lights up after a few seconds. It lights when it runs on batteries. She also doesn't appear when I press the button for 4 seconds.

    I tried to recover the system with the recovery CD (Windows XP Home). I also tried with Windows Vista. Always the same.

    In fact I have BIOS version 2.90 (updated from version 1.90, as far as I remember) but with an earlier version, the problem exists also.
    I think when I got the version of the BIOS before 1.90 this problem did not exist (but I don't remember this version number).

    Thank you for any suggestions.

    Hello

    It's a very unusual question and, for me, there is not just some explanation. It will be interesting to know what Toshiba experts say on this subject. Make a call and let us know what they say.

    The strange is that the same thing will happen with two different operating systems. I can't say for sure why this happens, but your laptop is a bit confusing and of course change the shutdown with restart. If it is result of BIOS update service people should know about it.

  • Lose Satellite M100 PSMA0A time but no date.

    Hello

    I have a portable Satellite M100 (PSMA0A-0J4002), who has problems with the hold time. He lost several hours in normal operation (mains or battery power or even with no battery and only AC). It stops when the computer goes into hibernation or is disabled.

    My Windows time zones are correct and I turned off automatic updates of internet time too.
    The strange thing is that the date never changes! It's not 1980 or similar when the battery is removed. That means it's not the CMOS battery?
    I disassembled the laptop looking for the CMOS battery, but it is soldered in. Is this correct?

    I don't know if it's relevant or related, but sometimes the screen turns black after emerging from hibernation and the laptop must be turned off and when he comes back he asked something like: clear memory and reboot or restart.
    I have to choose erase the memory and restart. Very rarely, I also have the blue screen of death with count upwards saying that memory dumping (I think).

    I deleted my firewall and AV programs but still lost time.

    Anyone is able to help please?
    Is it likely to be material, battery CMOS or software?

    Thanks in anticipation!
    Lewis

    > I disassembled the laptop looking for the CMOS battery, but it is soldered in. Is this correct?
    I m not very well how it s mounted on laptop M100, but in many cases the CMOS batteries are not easy to remove it s always a job for technicians of the ASP

    The issue of the date and time may be linked to the CMOS battery
    Usually, you can charge this battery easily.
    In order to load the CMOS battery, the laptop must be connected to the power adapter and the laptop must cover more than 20hours.
    After that the CMOS battery needs to be recharged.

    But if the question seems yet, then you should check if the update of the BIOS might help if not it s a motherboard problem that should be checked by a technician of laptop!

  • Satellite M100-JG2 HotKey and date and time problem

    Hi all

    I'm not very good with computers, and I've had some problems for a while now. My laptop is almost three years, I don't know why I'm writing this after so long but anyway. I think they are called "keys" or "launchkeys", hopeyfully, you know what I mean, but anyway they do no more work. They worked for a while, but they do not work now. I went into the control panel and went into the 'Toshiba' orders and tried to change what does each control, but it still does not work. No one knows how to fix?

    Also, another problem that I had since I first laptop is my date and time are screwed up. If I put my 15:30 time, it works perfectly, until around 16:15, that when he goes back to 15:30 and go all the way up to 16:15 and continues in this cycle until I manually change the time. I had a few friends (no professional) to look at, but can not understand. When I start my laptop I go to settings in the start screen, try to change it was from there, but it keeps going during the cycle. If I click on the time and click on the tab "internet time" and say "update now", it updates, and then only time will work normally, but only until I turn off my laptop. Once I turn it on then next turn, it passes through this new cycle of 45 minutes. If anyone has had this problem or knows how to fix?

    I'm not very good at explaining, but I hope you guys can help! I appreciate it really :) Show!

    The Toshiba Satellite M100. M100-JG2 seems to be a Canadian series laptop. I recommend you to visit the driver Toshiba Canada page and to download and reinstall the tool called controls, Toshiba HotKey Utility, touch and launch.

    To me, it seems that the Satellite M100 can not pass the POST (power on self-test)
    Especially its related hardware problem with the motherboard or part connected to the motherboard. I m thinking about issues of RAM

    It would be useful to check the RAM modules inserted.
    In the best case, you can remove the two RAM modules and test the unit with the new RAM works well.
    You could also remove one of the modules and could test the device using a module in each slot.

  • Satellite M100-221 with Win 7 - issue Fn after PVAT site amenities

    Hello

    I installed windows 7 on my toshiba satellite m100-221, with 5.60 bios, I had problems with installing the chipset drivers which I downloaded from the toshiba Web site.
    Finally I downloaded the drivers from the site to intel. I realized that my Fn keys are in operation, but only Fn + ESC, F1, F5, F6, F7.
    So I tried to install PVAT that contains Flash cards.
    Everything seems to work properly, some Flash cards began, I could use them with the mouse, BUT NONE of the Fn keys worked.

    Now, I'll try to uninstall, reinstall, but without success.
    When I disable flash cards at the start that the Fn keys work, when I start it, it seems that Flash Cards takes controll keys Fn and disable them.

    My laptop is able to vista and I also tried to do the same thing with vista, but with the same result, all Fn are disabled when the cards are running.

    It is important for me to use Fn + F8 to switch to the radio wireless and Fn + F4 to Hibernate.

    You have ideas or experience how to fix?

    Thanks for help.

    > So I tried to install PVAT that contains Flash cards

    Win 7 needs the VAP (additional package) and you need to install the additional Flash Card Support utility!
    Win 7 Vientiane does not contain Flash cards! You must install separately.

    Take a look on the Satellite L500 driver area.
    You'll find the VAP and Flash Card Utility for Win7

    I recommend reinstall these two tools again
