Satellite M70 - battery can not be charged more than

Hello!

I have a M70, who is 14 months old and I have a problem with it: the battery cannot be charged more! The computer and battery are in good shape, and 2 days ago the battery works great (it's an original 4000 Mah battery and he had a life between 2 and 3 hours). Now, the computer does not start unless it is plugged in and it shows the battery constantly charged 1%. The laptop does not suffer any physical damage.

What's weird, is that when I plug in the power supply, the battery seems to be load - the load led is on between 5 to 10 seconds, and then it turns off!
When it is plugged in, the laptop works very well.

The questions are:

(1) may be a software problem, or maybe a virus?
(2) how will I know if the battery is damaged or the problem is with the laptop and it cannot charge batteries more.
The warranty has expired and the company where I bought it refused to have a peek.

Thank you
Eugen

> can it be a software problem, or maybe a virus?
No, I Don t think so!

> How can I tell if the battery is damaged or the problem is with the laptop and it cannot charge batteries more?

It is not possible for the common user who doesn t have experience and special tools.
I think you will need to contact the ASP in your country for a control.

You will pay for it because the warranty has expired and I really put t see other possibilities.

  • Acer Aspire 5349 began to stop randomly, now can not stay on more than 2 seconds

    Hello world!

    I use my 5349 aspires for more than 4 years now running Windows 7. A few months ago, he began stopping at random - sometimes after an hour of work, other times - after 10-15 minutes.

    It is used mainly for light office work, but given his age, I decided it was due to the accumulation of dust or otherwise overheating due to thermal decomposition paste to the processor and the thermal pads - for the video chip. It is out of warranty, so I disasembled he replaced even if the thermal paste compound and the thermal pad seemed OK. There was no dust important problem as well, in any case seized the opportunity to thoroughly clean.

    After assembling and switching on, it ran stable for 3-4 hours which even helped me put upgraded to Windows 10 (32 bit). He rested for a few days due to the holidays here and then when turned on - again closed in about 10 minutes. After that no matter what I do - perform disassembly, check for loose contacts, CMOS battery, laptop battery, etc.-, he could not run for more than a few minutes from the Windows recovery and then stops again. In the last days it even can't stay for more than a few seconds before stopping again, so I can not even get into the BIOS.

    Laptop battery is good, because it has always been used as a desktop replacement, in all cases tried with battery and battery off nothing works. The power brick is one that came with it originally, even though it says LITEON instead of ACER. Tried another one with the same voltages and amps for an another ACER laptop - the situation didn't improve or change at all.

    Logically, I started reading here and discovered on exactly the same problems with other similar models, so I tried all the suggestions - replaced RAM, HDD, DVD, tried to boot from USB or DVD, tried to remove the build-up of electrostatic charges. I'm very suspicious of the latter, or any electrical problem / might like, because when I completelly demolish the mobile nut, i.e. by removing everything that can be removed and then back - it works for 10-15 minutes before closing.

    So, finally, the question is - is there suggestions that I could follow?

    The easy solution is to replace the MB in case it would help, or the completely portable, but I hate when I don't understand or diagnose a hardware problem and will make every effort to identify and resolve.

    See you soon!

    Google the keywords "5349" "mainboard" or "motherboard". Replacements to run $100 inc shipping, some on ebay U.S. and other China.

    Hello

    I installed a graphics card drivers on 3rd party Web site; + www.omegadrivers.net+
    It helped launch the counter strike on my laptop.

    But note; These drivers are not tested on the Toshiba laptop and you can install it at your own risk. I mean there is no guarantee that the laptop will run stable after installing all 3rd party drivers.

  • Satellite L500D battery does not charge

    My L500D is less 12 months... sound closer to 8 months and the battery will not charge...
    I tried the troubleshooting tips him are delivered with the user manual but light only stays on for about 5 seconds and it constantly says 0%.

    Right now I am an extremely frustrated owner of Toshiba and will be offended if I need to replace the battery after 8 months of normal personal use.

    All the tips, advice and suggestions are more then appreciated!

    Hello

    Battery problems are nothing unusual, that sooner or later each battery will die it s only a matter of time but of course he s strange that the battery can not be charged after 8 months of use

    However, the battery and the laptop are covered under warranty for 12 months.
    You should get in touch with a local ASP in order to solve this problem
    If the warranty is valid, everything must be done free of charge...

  • Satellite M70: Battery no longer works

    My brand-new satellite M70 battery no longer works. I haven't used the phone for about a week and when I tried to start it (on drums), he did nothing. The battery was still charged (63%) I need to connect the power adapter to make it work.

    During this time the battery LED is still orange. Battery is not charging, the battery remains at 63%. I tried to remove the battery for a while and put it in, but that does not change...

    How can I solve this problem?

    Hello

    Maybe the battery has a malfunction. It would be very interesting to know if this problem occurs after the replacement of the battery.
    According to your assignment the guarantee must be valid, that the battery replacement should be done for free.
    I recommend to contact Toshiba service partner in your country and seek help guys.

  • Satellite M70-131 - I want to add more RAM

    Hello

    I have a Satellite M70-131
    Part number: PSM70E-01500RAR

    I want to add more RAM, because I know you have to check three points to buy a new:
    -How can I add?
    -The type of RAM?
    -The number of the BIOS or BUS?

    I'm not sure about the third point, I know that I can add to 2G, and the type of RAM is DDR2.
    But if I have the right point, how can I check the number (BIOS or BUS)? Because I tried to add one, but did ' t work!

    Help me please
    Thnx 4 all

    Hello!

    The Satellite M70-131 can be upgraded to 2 GB of RAM and you have already said you need DDR2 RAM.
    Specification for RAM is DDR2 400/533 and you can add two modules with 1 GB of capacity of each module. The reference is PA3411U-1M1G.

    What do you mean with many BUS and BIOS? This has nothing to do with an upgrade of RAM.

    Good bye

  • Satellite A60 - Battery will not hold a charge

    Recently, my A60 Satellite 1 years stopped to load completely. If connected to the power supply, it works fine, but the battery not hold a charge at all and register under the 0% charged. Therefore impossible to use the 'portable' unless it is connected to the power supply. It was working fine, then suddenly one day stopped working!

    Does anyone else have this problem? Any ideas on what we can do? (preferably without replacing the batteries - a little more than a way of years out of warranty of course)

    Thank you

    Mike

    Hello

    This looks like a dead battery. The fact is that you can charge the battery about 500 times. After this period, the battery is dead or loose performance immediately.
    I think that the only chance to solve this problem is to replace the battery.

  • Satellite L650D battery does not charge

    Hello.

    My laptop model is Toshiba Satellite L650D PSK1SE.

    Recently I have updated my BIOS to v1.80, because there was a problem with the installation of Linux, which is solved in v1.80. Then, I met another problem - my laptop could not hibernate.

    This problem suddenly disapperared after a few months, but then battery stopped charging.
    When I plug my laptop, Windows 7 says "plugged in, not of charge, percentage: number.

    Sorry, I can't write exactly what message because for me, it's in Russian. But it's something like that. Ubuntu says that the battery is OK and the charge, but in fact, it is not.

    It starts to load when I deattach my battery and attach it back physically.

    Toshiba PC Health Monitor says my battery is OK. Also I noticed that Eco Utility DOES NOT WORK when this question appears.

    This happens usually when I use a cell phone for a few days while it is in hibernation.

    That's all.
    Sorry for the bad English. Looking forward for your help.

    Hello

    I can't imagine that this problem could be linked to the new BIOS
    But try this:

    -access the BIOS and set it to the default value (press F9 to get default and save changes by pressing F10)
    -close the laptop and unplug the battery adapter and ac
    -Press and hold the power button / stop along 30 sec.
    -connect the battery and ac adapter and turn on the device
    -check if the battery can be charged.
