Satellite P100-202: problems with screen again

Hi all! I write about a problem with the screen of my Toshiba P100-202. I recently posted in the thread "Satellite P100-202: screen will freeze" and my current problem is actually quite similar to what is explained in the thread "Satellite P100-119: display no longer works. Here is my story, hoping someone can help me avoid having to send the computer to a technician:
I decided after my previous problem, get my screen replaced. Everything seemed fine, except on the occaisonal instances, especially when I was using the "Internet Explorer" program, in which the screen sort of will re-start, IE. everything went black for a few seconds (music, etc. However would continue) then (boom) everything should reappear, sometimes in ultra - zoom for a second or two. The computer (OS = Windows 7) would report "problem with NVIDIA graphics driver", and then the operations would continue normally. This happened several times, but not often, and I was not too worried about it. Then, a few days before, I was using the latest release candidate of Internet Explorer 9 and the screen is blacked out and my music has continued and I thought 'OK, no problem' and then after a few seconds, and then the music stopped (and I thought ' uh - oh ') and then the blue screen of death.
OK, don't panic, reboot, but of course there is no word of welcome, no nothing, just a blank screen, with the backlight still works created a worrisome greyish tint. And then suddenly the mouse appears, followed by the entire screen, so I unwisely rejected the incident. Ten minutes later, same thing and this time, not even the blue screen of death as consolement, just gray nothingness.
A few days of rest, a dusting of battery, but no, even if I think the operating system works very well (caps lock light work and little purrs and snoring occur as usual), he has no doubt about the fact that the screen is not working.
PS Sorry if my message is too long, and no, I don't have access to an external display!

While I'm at it, someone is able to explain why a battery lasting 25 minutes can take several hours or even days to recharge?

Unfortunately I can not offer a final solution or diagnosis, but I think you should test the functionality with the original recovery image (recovery DVD) you have with your laptop.

Install the OS using this disc and test functionality. If the same thing happen over and over again there must be a hardware problem.
If you need to bring the laptop to the service ask first how much cost repair. Maybe it will be too expensive and you can buy the new laptop instead of paying lots of money to repair this old model of laptop.

  • Satellite P100-221: problem with driver battery composite microsoft

    Hello

    I have problem with my satellite p100-221! A few days ago I had problems with my audio driver (audio conexant high definition), after starting it was indicates that the pilot of his failed to initialize, I reinstaleed this driver several times and at last it was working OK, but I noticed that windows does not see the battery.

    The small cell in the status bar disappeared and I can not say for how long can I use laptop with battery. Laptop works as if it is connected to the AC. In the Device Manager appeared an exclamation on the battery composite microsoft.

    I tried to renew the drivers but nothing. I deleted combatt.sys and cmbatt.sys in windows\system32\drivers but they appear again. I started in safe mode deleted, but after normal start, they do not appear. I also deleted them in Device Manager, and after start-up, this device did not and do not ask me to install the drivers.

    What can I do?

    Hello

    I noticed that you did a lot of complex changes to your device. You deleted some files, update drivers, etc..
    I guess that your operating system has been enough installed and worked properly.
    Windows XP supports a system restore tool. This tool allows you to roll back the OS to the beginning.
    In my opinion, you should try to use this option. Maybe he'll bring your laptop at the time where everything worked correctly.

  • Satellite A300-202 - problems with alternating current

    Hello

    I bought a Satellite A300-202 a few months ago and I'm having intermittent problems with alternating current.

    Sometimes I plug the AC power and it does not start (the led are off and windows says that it is on battery) charge. Other times, he is in charge and suddenly stops.

    I suspected it might be the cord broken inside, but it seems to happen also when no one touches it. Usually, when it stops to load, I unplug the wall, wait a few seconds and plug in again, and it starts to load correctly never stop again.

    Someone at - it had a similar problem? I wonder if is it possible to just replace the parts to AC power so I won't have to send the laptop for repair.

    Thank you

    Pedro

    Hello

    I've never had a problem with my Toshiba Chargers but an old non - Toshiba power adapter died after 6 months of use. After the replacement, it works without any problem.

    I think you should check the update of the BIOS as mentioned by Akuma, but for me, it looks more like a problem with the AC adapter.
    So if the BIOS update help t doesn't, the adapter should be checked permanently.

  • Satellite P100-347 - problem with the judgment during the game

    I have a problem with my (pspa6e) Satellite P100-347

    After about 10 minutes of play time with games like battlefield 2, the SIMS2 and so on... my pc stops...
    I knew it was close because of high gpu or cpu temp...

    I felt that my laptop was warm, but after playing for a while its normal...

    So I installed HWmonitor to check my gpu, CPU and disk hard temp...

    That's what I show:

    THRM: 61.C - 141.F

    CPU: core0\1 - two 64.C - 147.F

    GPU: turn 85 stable - 90.C
    This normal use... no games...

    HARD DRIVE: 39.C

    Something must be wrong! GPU temp is too high?
    I tried a fresh install of the OS...

    Thnx for all the help and answers!

    Hmm these times can be a little high.

    Most likely there is dust in the radiator. You can use compressed air to remove it. Or as a miracle solution, blow into the vents dust closes in contrast to air circulation.

  • Satellite P100-487: problem with audio drivers for Windows XP Home 3.11.0.51 - entered

    Hello

    I have problem with this audio drivers 3.11.0.51. The problem is that the output works perfectly but there is no entry.

    When can I expect from the good work on Toshiba support drivers?

    My way to have entry and exit works well is: first install 3.11.0.51 drivers from Toshiba site to install Support Intel 3.14.0.50 and do not restart after the installation. It's hard because every time when I restart the PC I have to for this making begin.

    Anyone have the same problem and found another job drivers?

    Thank you

    HI Supportneeded,

    You gave me the trick with the driver to resolve the problem in the next restart.
    And I replied to your thread Thursday evening at 20:30. Ask you Toshiba phone when we can expect new drivers. (I have a Satego P100-10F) I added a complaint of litte that Toshiba should also support a 'old' OS like XP. And after that at 21:00 the detachment was completely absent.

    Anyway, I tested some drivers of other manufacturers and other Chipsetdrivers, still the same problem.
    the sound with this material does not work on XP due to a rather bad.

    Of course, toshiba brings out a new driver that will feature at the end of February, but now it is March and I see nothing. (stop: a new driver for Windows Vista is online since yesterday)
    I had it installed on xp and the sound is completely down. Whether in - or output.

    you already called toshiba support when they expect our problems?

    Greetings

  • macOS Sierra problems with screen sharing

    Hello

    After update to Sierra in two of my Macs, I can´t use the screen sharing. I used to use my second computer using screen sharing, but now, whenever I connect I see the split screen but active areas for use on as sleep, restart and turn off keep its original position. This means that if I like the closing down of the remote computer, I need to press just left... really strange sleep.

    I'm trying to connect to remote VNC Android and the appearance of the screen split also and with the same problem.

    Anyone has the same problem or an idea how to fix?
    Thanks in advance!

    Solved!
    Omission of base: after the descent of the Sierra update on both computers, forgot I manually start the.app after the update to the same date (a few minutes before). This cause the problem.
    I launch the.app server run OK and no problem with screen sharing.
    Maybe not to repeat this mistake, but just in case it's useful, I leave my explanation.

    See you soon,.

  • Satellite P100-202 - screen freezes

    Hi, first I would like to say that I think that it is a recurring problem of Toshiba, because I have a friend who has exactly the same thing happens to the Toshiba PC. Here's how it goes:

    While working on the laptop / PC, all of a sudden the screen will freeze, although everything that happens again and first if I wavered the screen a bit it would start working again. Sometimes, it was necessary to apply pressure to the center of the screen for this suddenly. Now he's got one so bad that I have to constantly put pressure on the upper left of the screen so that it can continue to operate (exactly the same on my friend's PC).

    I feel that soon even that won't work. If I leave the screen when it freezes, it fog slowly and finally grey with some colored vertical lines. Yet once, it snaps back immediately when I press top left corner of the screen (I have to continue to support on in the contrary case, it freezes again). No one knows what causes this common malfunction of Toshiba and how to fix it?

    I would be grateful responses until my laptop works most completely! '~'

    Hi trrttrry,

    This question really strange s but I never read this topic on Satellite P100 here in the forum so I think that s an individual case.

    Regarding your description, it could be loose cable connection or display malfunction itself. You tried an external monitor?

    In my opinion you should ask a technician for laptop help. They can check the cable connection and order a new one if it of really necessary.

  • Satellite P100-473 - suddenly the screen turns black

    Hello

    Since a few days, I have a problem with my Satellite P100-473 (with Vista Home installed recently + teamspeak only) after you have installed the latest version of Nero (maybe a detail)
    and do not know how, all of a sudden the screen went black.
    I so reboot and still black but the laptop properly started, the screen is activated (light up/down).
    I'm trying not to switch the display on an external monitor (VGA and DVI) no signal.
    I remove the battery for a few minutes.

    After a lot of irritation I gave it a week, I am again yesterday and after two tests display return with an error (such as a debug message), I forgot to note due to the excitement... ten minutes later same problem again:'(.)
    Yesterday before restarting the screen, I wait to start completely > type my password > sound > wait a minute > and type ESC / enter key at random.

    Can you please help me to find the source of this problem and maybe the solution to solve?

    Thank you very much for your future assistance, I hope you understand my pathetic English
    Best regards

    Hello

    Wait. You said you use external LCD and an external LCD related to this laptop.
    Do you use an external monitor Samsung, and maybe have you installed MagicTune software on your laptop?
    Please check this box.

    As far as I know software Samsung MagicTune can permanently disable the integrated computer Toshiba LCD display screen. Why?
    Because the MagicTune software is designed for use with desktop computers that do not have a built-in LCD screen.
    If your integrated LCD display has been disabled by the MagicTune software, you will need to make an arrangement for repair with a Toshiba authorized Service partner.

    But I hope that you have not installed this software.

  • Satellite M70-239 - problems with brightness adjustment

    Hello

    I ve got this laptop from my father after I buyed a new. Actually everything´s with him very well. But one thing is a little strange, I think.
    My old laptop and other portable that I had before, has the ability to control things like the brightness of the screen when you connect to load automatically. So not for this one. Nothing happens.

    Windows doesn´t also shows the remaining battery life expectancy and other things like that. These functions are not supported by this guy? I ve installed the latest bios version 1.70, which is available on the official website and I m using Windows XP.

    Someone at - it the same problem and is there a solution for this? Maybe you can help me.

    welcome them

    Hello

    Satellite M70 was delivered with Windows XP edition family, and Windows XP Home typical configuration. I imagine that you have installed all Toshiba tools and utilities, so it must there also have preinstalled Toshiba Power saver.

    He yiou can see profiles of different powers and each of them can be configured separately. Thus, when the laptop is connected to power notebook AC power will be the mode full power. There you can set LCD brightness to the maximum level.
    When the laptop is on battery will then serve others power plan. Compare the settings in two power modes and choose your preferred settings.

    Brightness level can also be changed with the key FN + F6/F7 combination.
    Of course, this will works if all Toshiba tools and utilities are preinstalled.

    Hey guys,.

    I just brought a Satellite A660 / 07P.
    I have problems with my browsers, internet connection.

    After a period of time (varies) my browsers stop to connect to internet.
    Skype works fine, as does my download manager and other internet services.

    When I run an internet system restore works again for a period of time, before picking up the handset.
    I used this happens with all browsers (IE, Firefox and Chrome).

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Ry ~.

    Hi dude

    Skype works fine. Right?

    This means that the laptop is connected properly to the router and the internet connection has been established successfully.
    I think that a firewall can affect the functionality of the browser. Check the firewall settings.

    In addition you should check if other installed 3rd party tools to affect the functionality of the browser.
    Verify installed tools

    last but not least you could clean the operating system. Use the CCleaner.
    Free is nice tools.

  • Satellite M40X - big problems with Sims 3 - help with disk drives!

    Hello
    I recently bought the sims 3 and unfortunately an error message appears saying "Disk authentication failure" I noticed after calling EA games and reading through many forums that there was a problem evident with laptops Toshiba and their ability to play the sims 3 (disk DLA).
    I did like the forums all recommended, and I have disabled the DLA drive, uninstalled the sims and restarted the computer. Not only could I not play the sims or re - install, but my computer did not recognize even the hard drive, he kept saying 'bad volume' etc.
    I got the sims on the computer and then re-enabled the DLA drive, causing my computer to close and show a major error on a blue screen.

    I then turned the computer back on, and it does not recognize the disc sims 3 more... It recognizes the other placed disks in the cd-rom drive... But now when I put the sims 3 in the player and enter my computer to open it it tells me to insert a disc into the cd player...

    My questions are the following...

    A.) how can I get my hard drive to recognize the disc sims being in the drive

    (B) once this problem is solved, how can I go about installing and using the sims 3 without disabling the DLA, which proved detrimental drive.

    (C.) other problems with computers laptop toshiba have turned around an individual driver... Metisha or something? My driver's - VOB COMPUTERSYSTEME GMHB
    Or something to that effect, which means that it has nothing to do with the DLA drive.

    For the person who can help me, that would be so so appreciated...

    Thank you

  • Satellite A200/A205 - problems with start-up and sleep modus

    I have a problem with my Toshiba (running on Windows Vista).

    When I start the computer, sometimes it starts normally. But often, it starts to beep, I can hear the fan start fan and lights up blue. But the system unbootable and I see only a black screen. When I turn off and try again, the ringtone happen or it starts normally. Sometimes I have to turn it on three times and sometimes it starts the first time.

    The other problem is when my laptop into sleep mode. Sometimes when I push to the bottom of the screen, but also when it rises. It turns into sleep normally, but it won't come out. I see only a black screen. I always turn it off and restart.

    I don't know much about computer and computer-language programs, but I really hope someone can tell me what to do. I bought recently and I can't work with it like I want to.

    Hello

    This code beep at startup always means there's a bad material work so I think that there is not much you can do.
    The problem could be related to everything, RAM, card graph, processor, motherboard, etc. and it is not easy to diagnose it exactly.

    What you can do is to test the RAM with Memtest86 or other memory diagnostics tool. Maybe he can find something

    If this isn't the case, I recommend you contact an authorized service provider. Guys can you help solve this problem. :)
