• Satellite P10-304: the problem writing and erasing CD - RW discs

  Some need help pls. I own a Toshiba satellite P10-304 with a combo player SD-R2412 installed. When I try to burn a new CD - RW, it does ok, but wouldn't allow no other written on the same CD in another session. The written CD - RW is then recognized as a CD-ROM. In addition, it is not possible to erase the cd - rw usinig this player. When I take the cd written for my laptop office of deletion, as it's done with success and my toshiba can then burn again. Any ideas on what to do?

  Additional information: laptop computer came bundled with "drag n dro cd" but I had to install Roxio and even tried the cd writing software provided with windows XP are done everything to nothing. I checked the 'advanced system info-error log' and the report there is 'the device, \Device\CdRom0, has a bad block'; I don't know what that means.

  Cheers.

  Hello

  In my opinion, it's probably caused by software. In my opinion, you should remove all burning software and verify all burning functions with windows option. After deleting some software, it can happen that, in the registry editor it is a lot of waste that will not be removed completely.

  In any case, delete all the burning software, and you can also try to remove the device from Device Manager DVD. Restart the laptop and DVD should be detected and installed correctly. Try using the option of engraving of Windows and if there is still problem writing once again please.

• Satellite Pro A120 battery problem

  Hi all

  I have a portable Satellite Pro A120 and is a battery problem a month ago.
  The battery is not new, but recently changed, 6 months ago.
  Until a few weeks ago, it lasted about 2 hours when full load, until this time
  suddenly dropped 30-40 minutes.
  In addition, sometimes the power of the laptop turns off when it's a few extra vibrations,
  for example, if I put it on a table without the maximum protection.
  In some cases, these, is not possible to turn on the laptop, unless I have remove the battery and put it back in place.

  I initially though that there was a problem with the battery or the battery contacts, but they seem ok.
  I tried to unload it in my laboratory of the company with a power resistance: resistance absorbed 1A continuously for more than 3 hours. As the specification 4400mAh battery, I would say that the battery is ok.

  Is it possible that I have a problem with the battery inside the pc management circuit?
  The battery stress test above seems to show that the charging process is ok. So the problem might be with
  the provision of monitor or battery power.
  Someone at - it experience of similar problems and maybe a solution.
  Or perhaps a work around? As excluding the battery monitoring and auto turn off

  Thanks in advance

  Perhaps, but that's just a guess only a cellphone technician may provide an exactly the answer to this question.

  > Furthermore, sometimes the power of the laptop turns off when it's some additional vibration.
  for example, if I put it on a table without the maximum protection.
  In some cases, these, is not possible to turn on the laptop, unless I have remove the battery and put it back in place.

  It is very strange, I want to say if the contacts of the battery and the battery would be ok, this symptom shouldn't its sounds strange for me, so maybe that's the key why battery don't not lasts more than 30-40 min

  However, I think you should try a new battery before checking the motherboard.

• Satellite P300-172 battery problems

  Hello.

  Hope you all had a good Christmas and can hopefully help out me.

  I bought a laptop P300-172 awhile back.
  Now, even after the sinking of a large number of power settings, the battery life was poor.

  So I ordered a replacement from ebay (part 3rd battery) the battery is identical to the Toshiba battery in everyway of course the only difference is there was not an a toshiba.

  in any case, when the battery arrived I plugged it and the battery LED came on to show that he was charging, when I booted up my laptop (with vista) windows showed that there was no battery connected, I thought strange. But I did back and let it load, after an hour or two charging orange led started flashing which it never did.

  Still, I booted up vista and windows showed there is no battery connected. I have contcated the seller and assumes that the battery was faulty, as chance would have, he repaid the article and I went back to the normal toshiba battery.

  I had another battery, ordered through work and that is identical in every way, once again, except that it was another 3rd party battery and which does exactly the same thing.

  Can anyone help?

  I've updated to the latest version of the BIOS (3.9) and have tried many steps as leaving the laptop without the battery for 30 minutes and then insert the battery. update the bios.

  Well that's about all I can think and have read through the forums.

  I appreciate may give any information you guys! Sorry for the long message.

  If I were you I wouldn't assume more battery problems and return the phone to the place of purchase, if you can.

  The problem is out of your control, as you have tried multiple batteries. Just give him place of purchase to watch. Then less grief for you.

  Good luck.

• Satellite P10 replace battery when the AC is connected

  I have a problem with my laptop P10.
  When the laptop is turned on and AC power is on as well, it changes the battery so that I can only for work on 1.5 hours. However, the main power supply is open!
  When the laptop is turned off the red indicator light starts to work and the battery may charge himself again, but is not that that when the laptop is on.

  Anyone know what that could be the problem and what I need to do?

  Thank you in advance!

  > When the laptop is turned off the red indicator light starts to work and the battery may charge himself again, but is not that that when the laptop is on.
  I m not 100% sure and I can provide only a few suggestions, but for me, it looks like an electronic malfunction of power.
  It is part of the motherboard and to my knowledge, the whole motherboard must be replaced to solve this problem

  However, you should definitely contact a mobile technician who could check it out exactly.

  Best regards and good luck

• Satellite L555-123 battery problem?

  I own a satellite l555-123 which, lately, does not (most of the time), not start even without the battery and when in power. I managed to start it once, and what I saw was a popup that says "your battery is critical please change as soon as possible" or something in that sense (but that normally on windows and all, just, he couldn't last more than 5 minutes, running windows). I have 2 questions if you could be so kind to answer.
  Is it possible that it does not start when running on a power supply without battery?
  What model battery is also compatible with my model? Just to know to buy a

  Ask Toshiba or people that you buy.

• Satellite P10 874, strange problem

  Ok
  Hi everyone I don't no how to start my problem is a problem and a story at the same time, I'll tell you one thing will help in the history that I live in Egypt, but I bought my laptop in Dubai
  I worked very p10 will during the first week but suddenly the usb ports stopped working all at once
  I went to Egypt to toshiba and I gave them the p10 but couldnot fix so they told me that I have to change the motherboard, I said okay, but they said that you are on the international interest of the motheboard is free but you must pay the tariffs on $300 to 500 and that's a lot of money
  so I sent the laptop with my brother to the Kuwait for toshiba it (he was there) they set the laptop and I have not paid anything
  but when I got the notebook back I found that missing something missing wireless 802nd motherboard they bring is not the same as the dose of a new not a WiFi connection
  I am really upset, I look on the net for toshiba service customer to tell them, but I have found no email or something which would do anything if he has Aproblem with one of the toshiba branches who must go and say
  I know wana
  and there is another thing that would be someone knows the detailed characteristics of his computer

  Hi, the Toshiba Page for the Middle East is->

  I think it is the best way to apply directly to them (or distributor).

• Satellite L850 - charger / battery problems, not normal...

  Hi all.

  First post and all, I had a glance through to see if I can find my particular problem, and I don't think I can.

  I posted this in another sub-forum, but then realized it's here... oops!

  A L850. It will work fine on battery, but only supplies not the charger cable. Helpfully, a colleague also has an another L850 (I bought two together) so I can charge my battery of separately in his machine.

  If I start the machine on a charged battery, it works fine. If you connect then the power adapter, the led is lit on the front of the machine, but it's clearly not load the machine works until the battery is flat and then turns off and will not turn on back until you charge the battery apart and put it back in.

  Whenever the machine is powered, it also complains that the RTC battery is flat, and you will need to set the time in the BIOS. It is the coin cell CR2032 internally on the motherboard isn't?

  what I don't understand, is that the unit understands clearly that the charger is plugged, as seers to say it is the battery. Except that it isn't, and is not to be unity. Œuvres battery for about 40 minutes of our days, after that, dead machine.

  Any ideas? I suppose that there is something wrong with the internal charging circuit, but the fact that the LED lights up when it is plugged suggests otherwise...

  Thanks for all the ideas.

  David.

  More information on this type of bit. When it is plugged in, the icon on the screen says "Plugged in, charge", but battery icon animates not charging about 10 seconds, then stops, and battery is clearly not charge as % drops away slowly.

  I found a Google one of them is the "remove all, hold for 30 seconds, reconnect power. This made no difference. I also found advice to uninstall the battery from the device manager driver software and allow it to re - install. This done, still no different.

  I got the hard drive and in a USB enclosure to retrieve all my files and am doing the 'factory restore' option I think that this is a restore hard disk partition. This work is far away, but in my opinion, is still running on battery only, so do not know if this is going to end!

• Satellite L300D-245 - battery problem

  I was using my laptop on battery only and all of a sudden it turned off even if she had 40% of power left and would not turn on. I plugged it into the outlet. the battery led doesn't light up. I turned on the laptop and everything was ok, but for the battery. the laptop read it, but it does not load. It's 40%, so I plugged it in, and it turns off immediately. the battery is now at 0% and the laptop runs on the power adapter only.

  the laptop is old, vista 1 year.

  Last week, I saw the same behavior on my laptop of a friend s. I'm not 100% sure but I think that the battery is defective. He has already ordered a new.

  I am sorry to say that it resembles a discarded HARD drive.

  You can boot from a floppy drive and see the HARD drive at all. If you can, then I suggest trying to format the drive in this way and then tries again.

  If this isn't the case, then you should get a new drive.

• Satellite P10 turn suddenly

  Hello

  I have the satellite P10
  Im having problems.
  I reformatted about a month ago, and since then, his performance is even more strange. One morning, I turned on and then as windows was loading, all images on the screen pixeld and started jumping up and down the screen... almost like matrix effect. Windows loaded, but my office etc. still had this majorly pixeld watched and kept jumping.

  I managed to restart the pc in safe mode - and he has not had the same problem since then, however, it shuts down completely I work almost everyday now - or the second day.

  I reformatted... installed lastest drivers, constantly updated to windows and have updated graphics cards etc.
  He continues to cut all of a sudden - and feels as if it detects overheating a bit as well.

  SOS. What should I do?

  Katy

  Hello

  Maybe the display problem had occurred because of the corrupted display driver.
  However another question looks like overheating.
  You can try to use the vacuum cleaner to clean the cooling modules.
  It is a simpler procedure to clarify the fans.

• Satellite P10 - laptop off suddenly during application

  My Satellite P10 has a problem for about 1 month. In many applications (for example games) he died suddenly, without message or similar warning.

  Is it possible, that it's getting hot?
  It worked without any problems for over a year half!

  Could it, that it is only some dirt in the ventilation? And then I clean it myself without any problems?

  If I had a PC I just opened and clean. But this is my first laptop and I don't have too much experience with the intereor of it.

  Hello

  I normally clean any dust from my A30 on a weekly basis, by blowing through the outlets on the back of the notebook, or using a vacuium domestic cleaner of the hose to the fan intake grills oin the bottom of the unit. This avoids having to remove the heatsink from the CPU that might invalidate your warranty.

  I also make sure that the notebook is never directly placed on the carpet or pillows or other soft surfaces because it either block the air inlets or provide a source ready of dust and debris that will be sucked into the unit.

  It is a setting in Device Manager to allow cooling for 'maximum performance' or 'Noise Minimum'. The effect of the first is to allow the CPU to run at maximum speed (which may involve fans to their maximum, while the latter will cause the CPU to slow down when it gets too hot, allowing fans to run much more slowly. I think that the post of 'Heaven', associated with a chip fauly on the motherboard that was the fans run continuously.
