Satellite M40-107 does not illuminate

Whenever I press the power button on my M40 turns yellow after a second or two. Then it turns blue and I hear the machine into action. But before I get something on the screen it already turns off. Someone had this problem on an M40? Is this all just "death"?

I must be the luckiest person in the world. I bought the machine a couple of weeks to replace a desktop computer that died on me.

Hello

I think that sounds like a hardware failure. I recommend going to a Toshiba service partner.

Sorry I don't have more info.

Good bye

  • Satellite M40-225 does not Windos 7 or Vista?

    Hey,.
    I am trying to install Windows 7 on my Toshiba Satellite M40-225, but it does not start after installation. After completing the installation of Windows will try to start for the first to say "prepare your computer for his first start" then after 5 seconds or it will restart and do the same thing again...

    The same problem also happens with Windows Vista.

    If you have any ideas it would be much appreciated. I thought maybe the RAM, but it passes all Diagnostics, even with the hard drive.

    This model of laptop is not designed for Vista or Win7 and equipment do not correspond to the requirements and standards for the two operating systems.

    Do you know how old is Satellite M40?
    To be honest, I really wonder that you try to install the newest OS on this old laptop model.

  • Satellite M30-107 does not start successfully after using recovery disk

    Hello

    I recently got my hands on a toshiba Satellite M30-107 laptop second hand and decided to freshen it.
    I used the toshiba recovery disk, but after that the laptop is no longer support windows.

    When turned on it shows booting Toshiba disc for about a second then goes to a screen blank and freezes.
    When turned on, once again, a screen will appear an error by stopping and offer the opportunity to start in SafeMode etc but choose one of the options causes the machine to freeze.

    Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hello

    Sounds a little like the laptop does not start because of the problem of Windows software
    You did not recover the M30 with the original Toshiba that was provided with this device M30 recovery CD?

    I may be wrong, but to me it looks like a recovery CD incorrect has been used and an image with drivers not compatible m has been installed

    You can try to install the OS of Microsoft Win XP original CD and could check if it would be possible to get the notebook ruin using own BONE.

    In this case we (you and me ;)) might know if this problem could be related to hardware or software.

  • Satellite Pro M40X does not ILLUMINATE

    Hi. -.

    I have a M40X Pro Satellite that I bought 4 years ago. It works well until a few weeks ago.

    I tried to turn it on but nothing happen, nothing, no lights, no sound at all, completely dead.

    It is connected to the power supply and the power light is on, (the battery light does not work since there is a lot of time). I tried to remove the battery, unplug the power cable and after several hours or even days, try to turn it on and I got the same behavior.

    Only power if it is (the power light when you connect the AC power) but when I press the button "turn on" the laptop, nothing happens.

    My laptop isn't under warranty, so if someone could help find a solution that would be great!

    Thank you

    Hello

    I have read your problem related to the failure of hardware. It seems that the motherboard is dead, no doubt, the southbridge. In any case, you should contact the service center:

    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/generic/ASP_SUPPORT/

    Note that the motherboard is one of the most expensive parts of the tower and don't know if it's worthy to replace, it is better to buy a used or a new laptop.

  • Satellite Pro A60 does not illuminate

    Hello

    Turn the laptop over and unscrew the cover on the ram. Then remove the ram and try to turn it on again. If it lights, put the piston inside the laptop and try again. It does not turn on? Then your ram is dead. If yes then you can replace, or have your asp replace it. If this does not resolve the problem, there is a small plastic cover that runs along the keyboard just above the keyboard. Take this off and then unscrew the fixing screws to the bottom of the keyboard. Under the keyboard, you may have a second RAM slot. If Yes, try to remove the RAM stick and turn. It work? If this isn't the case, you probably have a problem with the motherboard. If it lights fine, then you have found the issue and can replace or continue using it without the extra RAM. Hope this helps and have a nice day.

  • Satellite Pro L300 does not illuminate

    Hi all, I'm new to this forum.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 and I've had it for about 2 years.
    But yesterday I closed the laptop as usual. But later I went back to it and tried to turn it on. But it does not work. Instead, when I press the power button the LED next to the battery symbol flashes orange/orange 6 times and then turns off.

    Can someone tell me what it is? I tried to let it load, but that has not worked. The amber light is the only light that flashes. It does not recognize that I plugged in the charger and I don't think that the battery was flat. So I'm angry and helpless right now.

    Can someone help me please?

    See you soon.

    Hello

    There are several indicators;
    DC, while running, the main battery, LED HDD/ODD.
    So I guess the power LED flashes in orange. Right?
    This means that something was wrong on the motherboard.
    Maybe power supply electronic malfunctions

    In this case, there is no much to do only mobo replacement could help to...

  • Satellite Pro L20 does not illuminate

    Hope you can help. We have a 5 years satellite pro L20 who never gave a lot of days. It runs from Win XP, had an upgrade (crucial) memory to 2 GB and a new battery 4 years ago 4 years ago. 2 days ago, he simply left with the same noise you get when force a shutdown by holding the power button down. I tried to boot with no battery, just the sector and only on a charged battery. All to nothing does not.

    I then read the button of power with the battery and removed sector I did after leaving it overnight. When I replaced the battery it started as usual and lasted 30 seconds before turning off again, and then he was dead. I have tried all combinations with the ram up to 1 stick or kidnapped and attempted to get the bios with the HDD outside as well. Still nothing.

    I noticed that when I put the battery in 2 of the 3 flashes briefly, and now the button of pwer while pushing the battery causes a brief start 4 seconds.

    Any ideas as to what this may be? I suspect that the hardware and software. Also, I tried a different power adapter, once again no results. It stays just off.

    Thanks for any help...

    Hello

    I'm afraid it looks like a serious m hardware problem
    My first idea was a malfunction of the RAM in such a case, you could replace and test the memory, but it seems that you have already tried

    In my view there s something wrong with a motherboard or a part on the motherboard :(
    In this case I n t think a replacement of the motherboard would be useful since this part is very expensive

  • Satellite A100-749 does not illuminate

    Hello

    Since a few days, I have a problem with the power of the laptop.
    Immediately after the connection of the AC adapter or the battery, it will not power upward.
    The flashes of button and power indicator, any indicator on the keyboard flashes one time but the laptop does not work (hard drive and fans also).

    I noticed that I have to wait a few minutes with is plugged or (I'm not sure) inserted battery.
    Then, the portable lights and works normally on battery and adapter separately and jointly.
    This means that the battery and AC adapter are not damaged.

    I also noticed that, until the problem was the power LED flashes a few seconds after plugging in the power adapter. Similarly, the light blinks a few seconds after firing on the AC adapter.
    I guess there is a capacitor that needs to be loaded.

    When I can not turn on the laptop, this indicator will start / stop flashing immediately after plugging in / pulling on the power adapter.

    Where could be a problem?
    Could this be a problem with the CMOS battery that needs to be replaced?
    Could this be a problem with a capacitor inside the laptop in the power circuit?
    Something else?

    Thanks to advice
    Best regards

    Hi mate

    Usually the DC-IN (first on left) indicator lights up blue when the power adapter is connected and if the power supply is not assured. IF the adapter voltage is abnormal or if power failures then this indicator flashes orange.

    ((Deuxième à gauche), the power led lights up blue when the computer is turned on. If the laptop is in stand by mode indicator flashes orange, while the computer shuts down.

    I think you mean the first LED and in this case, it seems that there is something wrong with the power supply electric or electronic.

  • Satellite P300-Q01 does not illuminate

    Hi all

    I was surfing the net a few hours ago, when my laptop just turned off.
    Since then, I tried taking the battery on the thing and used only the plug; but it does not work.

    I also tried out both the battery and mains Plug and tried pressing the button market for 30 seconds, then put the battery back, but that didn't work either.

    For the moment, when I plug in the plug thing there is no lights turn on by saying that I plugged it.
    I still have 3 weeks of warranty left.
    Are there tricks to turn this thing on, or will I have to refer to the warranty? (Note, the nearest town is 990 Km from here where I live)

    Thank you

    Hello

    You can try to remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter
    Then, wait about 1 hour and then reconnect the two parts.
    Then try to turn on the machine.

    If this will not help then you should get in touch with ASP in your country because this could be a serious hardware problem that could be repaired only by ASP.

    Good luck buddy!
