• Satellite L500-1UU - disconnect the battery when it is connected to the AC adapter / CC

  Hello world

  I have purshaced new Toshiba Satellite L500-1UU
  CPU: Intel (r) Core i3 CPU M330 2.13 GHz
  Physical memory: 4096MB RAM
  Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 6.1.7600

  My question is: remove the battery when I use my computer laptop while its connected to the AC adapter would be wise or not? This would increase or decrease the life of the battery, or it will not affect anything?

  Is i3 processors have a technique of centrino disconnect battery power whent, it is fully charged?

  What do you think of this?

  Hi Khaild Essam,

  I agree with Akuma. There is no problem, remove the battery when the AC/DC adapter is connected. If you can do it. In addition the battery charge will be stopped if it s at full charge. The laptop consumes energy to AC/DC adapter only.

  If you remove the battery and work with AC/DC adapter only, the battery life will be improved a little because it s not in its use.

  Hello

  In order to run Windows Vista on my M60 - 132 I am advised to spend at least 1 GB or 2 GB of RAM, but I don't know exactly what kind of RAM to buy. Could someone advise me please on this issue?

  Thanks in advance!
  Kind regards

  Satellite M60 Series supports the simple DDR2 533 MHz PC2-4200 barrettes.
  Each laptop or merchant to sell these modules.

  As far as I know Toshiba recommend using own modules due to compatibility issues.
  I found this number on the options and accessories site:
  DDR2 400/533 256 MB (PA3389U - 1 M 25)
  512 MB DDR2-400/533 (PA3412U - 1 M 51)
  1 GB OF DDR2 400/533 (PA3411U-1M1G)

• Satellite M60-132 - USB stops working until you restart

  My problem looks like this:

  All USB ports die after a few minutes (time may vary, but is shortened recently) after the start. They give no error - the USB mouse stops responding, the USB drive gives stops giving "delayed write failure" or sth like that. They are all visible and OK in device (Windows XP) Manager, no problem not being reported here. They have just stop working. I tried to reinstall Windows. It is not dependent on the OS actually. For example, I can boot from a live CD of SuSe Linux and ports will also die after a few minutes - they do on any OS tested.

  Now, I have discovered (GOOGLE usb ports stops working until the reboot) that several Satellite M60 users report this problem with their old cell phones. Exactly the same thing - ports die after a certain time of start and remain that way until you restart. In one case the user writes that he bought a cardbus PCMCIA USB controller and the problem continues - the ports of the controller when dying as well as embedded.

  My idea is to try even when the PCMCIA - maybe it will work in my case (another chip etc - you have never know). And anothr one must try to connect a USB hub to the Firewire port available. There are USB to Firewire Converter cards - could work like that?

  Anyone know any solution to my problem or have an opinion on my ideas? I am looking to buy a new laptop, which I can't really afford right now...

  Hello

  To be honest I've ever read on these problems on the Satellite M60, but it can happen from time to time, because it of also a fairly old laptop.

  My friend also uses a PCMCIA card that has USB ports on his old notebook. He is quite satisfied with this solution because it don t need to each time the USB ports. Just sometimes if he's copying files on USB.
  These cards are cheap, you can get it for a few s Euro and you can buy this card where you want, for example Amazon.co.uk.

  I never heard firewire to USB ports, which is new to me and I n t have experience with this.

• Satellite M60 - screen does not light when I reboot

  I have a Toshiba Satellite M60 and the screen does not come when I turn off or restart. It takes approximately 12 trials before it lights. When the screen does the computer not light again starts ok just no screen.

  I put in sleep mode if I don't want the hassle of trying to get the screen lights up. What is a screen problem or inverter?

  Any help would be appreciated.

  I doubt that someone who has no experience with this stuff will be able to replace anything on the motherboard.
  For me it sounds very risky and I think that it of better to take the machine to an experienced technician to do this in his own hand and damage the whole motherboard

• Satellite Pro U400-11V - charges only battery when the computer is turned off

  Following a reformatting my hard drive of the computer, my laptop recognizes only the AC/DC power adapter when it is turned off. When the computer is turned on, it does not recognize the AC adapter.

  Changed the power supply ac and it made no difference.

  Have also tried an update of the BIOS (3.0), I am running Windows Vista 32 bit.

  Hello

  I doubt it has something to do with the software or the operating system. In my opinion, that this looks like a hardware problem, because the battery will be always charged if AC/DC adapter is plugged in. That's why it of not necessary to enable this setting in the configuration of the software.

  If your BIOS is already updated, contact an authorized service provider. Technicians can check your laptop and maybe the motherboard needs to be replaced.

• Series satellite will not charge the battery more

  Hi all

  until yesterday, my battery and recharging my batteries works great. But suddenly it stopped loading the batteries.
  The laptop still works when connected via AC. But even if I put the battery in and the laptop is plugged in for hours, it does load, it remains at 0%.

  But the orange LED is lightened when I plugged it in and the battery in its housing, which suggests that he should be in charge?

  Also, I have two batteries, but it does not load any of them.
  Does anyone have suggestions/help?

  Thank you people.

  Hi mate,

  It seems that e-invoicing kissed goodbye. (which means-> malfunction :).) So, in this case you have to send your machine to an ASP (certified partner) to a hardwarecheckup and repair of this component.

  I mean, if both of your won´t of batteries load then it MUST be electronic invoicing, a rational conclusion is not present right now...

  If you need help to find a just ASP click [HERE: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_whitepaper.jsp?service=EU&WHITEPAPER_ID=0 000000871] and talk to the closest one in your country.

• Question about to reinstall XP on Satellite M60-132

  Hi people, yesterday I wanted to reinstall my xp. but I couldn't find 2 cd and none of them worked.
  The first cd I tried was Express Media Player Recovery CD.

  If you know what I have to do, please send me an email: [[email protected]]

  You don t have to start from the Express Media Player recovery CD, but from the Toshiba Recovery CD!
  As the name already says the Express Media Player recovery CD contains only the Express drive!

  The Toshiba Recovery CD contains the Win OS and drivers of Toshiba.

  Therefore, to use the Toshiba Recovery CD. Insert it into the CD/DVD drive and press the C key immediately after starting the laptop.
  This C button will allow the start-up of the STRANGE!

• The battery charge falls even when it is plugged into the satellite series

  I have a laptop satellite and although it recognizes the power adapter when it is connected and that the icon in the taskbar shows "load", the percentage of the battery charge seems down.

  It is only while the laptop is turned on, because it does not charge the battery when it is turned off.
  I didn't know that he used the power of the battery so that hip, so I'm puzzled by this not only why the battery doesn't seem to be in charge, but also why the battery seems to fall once the laptop doesn't have to use it anyway.

  Any help is appreciated!

  Hello

  I saw this problem on my own laptop in the past. even if the laptop is charging, the battery seems to fall in charge.

  This indicates that the battery life is coming to an end, there are a limited number of cycles of load for a battery before it dies.
  Also when you have the computer is off fresh is always lost at a considerable pace, because the battery is good, "die."

  You can't do anything on this issue except to buy a new replacement battery for your laptop computer to a repair center authorized Toshiba. This should answer your question.

• Re: Satellite M60-188 - battery won't charge

  Hello

  I recently received a Satellite M60 and this morning when I plugged back the charger the battery indicator in the taskbar has shown a full battery when there was in fact only 4% left. And sudenly my computer stopped after a few minutes bipping because the battery is low.

  It's my second Satellite (the other was aM70 and I changed the battery and the charger of the M70, but the problem remains the same) and now with my M60, it seems to be exactly the same problem (I only got the M60 for two weeks), I don't understand how the battery may already be damaged after 2 weeks.

  If anyone can help me, thanks

  Hello

  I guess that your new laptop Satellite M60 was not new and it s a laptop second hand. Then the battery and the adapter AC Lentivirales, second hand, coins, or you use the Satellite M70?

  However, I think that your battery is simply defective and must be replaced. If your laptop works with the AC adapter plugged there should not be a problem with the motherboard I think but a laptop technician can check this

• Satellite M60 - 105 stopped battery charge

  Hello

  I have an M60 which is now more than a year. Recently, my power adaptor stopped charging my battery so I replaced it with an equivalent adapter.

  While initially it worked successfully, after a few days it thus ceased to charge my battery. The battery works fine as my laptop turns on but asks that I stopped him in order to prevent the loss of work etc.

  The adapter also works very well because it works in a friends laptop without problem.

  Have no idea what the problem is or how to fix this?

  Thank you

  Chris

  Hello Chris

  To be honest I see no possibility to fix it alone. Be honest: what you can do in this case? Battery recharge is question of electronic power and if the battery is not correctly I'm afraid, it must be checked by the service.

  I'm really interested if someone will put something on itself fixing.

  In any case good luck.

• Satellite A500-1GL: it is advisable to remove the battery when you use the network

  I know this is a silly question but its actually something I know not so thought I would ask.

  I almost always plug my laptop into the supply line (satellite a500 1gl)
  I was wondering have you actually keep the battery installed even when using the electrical network.
  Or is it really advisable to remove the battery when you use the network?
  I didn't know if the battery should always be in place.
  Thanks for your help

  Hello

  A few years ago it was recommended to remove the battery of the laptop if the AC adapter is plugged. What keeps the constant charge battery
  New age of batteries are better you can leave the battery in the Bay it s ok and it should not affect the performance

  However, sooner or later each battery would die it s only a matter of time, you know

• Satellite M40 does not seem to charge the battery beyond a certain level

  Just a brief explanation of my work.

  I make repairs pc and laptop, replacement of jack, BGA/brazing repairs etc.;
  However computer have always baffled me. I have a Toshiba M40, although I know that this problem is not specific to this model.

  The laptop does not charge the battery beyond a certain level at the moment its impasse on 41%, it says loading in windows but do not go anywhere.
  I saw other portable that stick onto the other percentages 99%, 70% etc.

  I tried to completely discharge the battery (on windows) and reload (for Windows), and also tried to unload and reload not in o/s, if anything they seem to have made things worse as initially the issue of charge level was approximately 50% and more.

  By mistake the laptop wasn't for awhile so the battery flat, which probably did not help as I understand its best to store 40% battery when not in use.

  Any ideas what the problem is and if theres any way to revive this battery?

  Hello

  In my opinion, the problem is related to the breakdown of battery.
  I'm don't know how old your battery is but eventually should be replaced.
  After a long period of use, the battery loses the own performance and must be replaced.
  This is nothing unusual and often to used batteries.

• Toshiba Satellite M60-154: what is the best way for a long service life of a battery?

  Hello Toshiba-users,

  I bought the "Toshiba Satellite M60-154" but I want to use most of the time on the AC adapter.

  I read the manual, but they say nothing about the battery life for people like me who will use the computer power adapter laptop most of the time.

  I would like to know if:

  (1) it is best put the battery inside when I use the laptop on the power adapter for a long time (they say this is not good for the life of the battery when it is fully charged and when he is still in charge...)

  (2) it is best to take the battery when when I use the laptop on the power adapter for a long time and check the battery every week for example to see whether or not it is still loaded (they say it's good for the life of the battery when the battery is fresh off once a week)

  Indeed, what should I do to make sure that the battery will have a long life, knowing that I always use the laptop on the power adapter instead.

  Thanks for the tips

  Hello

  your info is just. Only put the battery in the laptop, if you want to load or work without mains, to make sure that your battery has a long service life relative.

  Good bye
