• Satellite 300CDS - RTC battery replacement

  Hello

  I think that the RTC battery in my old laptop satellite 300CDS died and I want to replace it, because the date system is lost if I don't use the computer for a while. The battery itself seems relatively easy to find on online shops (Varta standard part).

  I did, however, find a manual with enough detail on how to "disassemble" the computer without the risk of damaging it.

  Do you have such a guide or manual?

  Thank you
  Maxim

  I think this RTC battery replacement is a bit risky and you should be careful, because you could damage other parts.
  If you don't know how to replace these batteries, you should always ask a technician for laptop for support and assistance.
  In most cases, this service is not very expensive and you can be sure that your computer will work correctly after this procedure.

• Fractures of fatigue on the Satellite P100-423

  Hi all

  This is my first post here.
  The hinges on my Satellite P100-423 have always been fairly rigid. Thus fractures of stress now appeared on the back of the lid near the hinges.
  I bought in Nov/06 and it seems to be now out of warranty.
  I would appreciate any advice on what I can do about it or how to get it fixed.

  I totally agree with codes for the ASP must replace it and I think that this plastic cover should t be too expensive.

• Satellite P100-423 - warranty about to run out

  I have a satellite p100-423 which a failure of the LCD screen.

  I've registered this with toshiba and was offered an extension on my warranty to three years.

  These three years are on Sunday. I tried to use the online system that simply reports that my one year warranty has expired.
  I called help lines and a response service said to call Monday.

  Then
  1 - How can I do a warranty applies within three years?
  2. I can't find the evidence of the extension (but maybe it's because my machine is broken), I had hope Toshiba would have a record of it. If Toshiba say through their online system that my warranty has expired after one year, how do I claim on the three years a. ?

  Hey Buddy,

  Have you already contacted an authorized service provider? The ASP can normally repair laptop warranty also check the warranty time.

  It is difficult to say at this time what will happen but I'm sure that if you speak with the ASP they will help you as much as possible, and if your laptop is under warranty, the repair should be free.

  By the way: Here you can find the nearest authorized maintainer:

• Satellite C855 - low RTC battery

  Bought a brand new Satellite C855 7 months, now get a RTC battery low warning, every time I start, have to reset the date and time. The laptop battery says fully charged, but if I unplug the portable charger will turn off.

  > The laptop battery says fully charged, but if I unplug the portable charger will turn off.

  This means that the main battery is empty and is probably damaged.
  Empty main battery would affect the RTC battery too. So I think that you need to replace the main battery first and then the RTC battery for a longer period of time while the mobile computer is turned on.

  The laptop seems to be covered by the warranty (if its 7 months) so the battery must be replaced in warranty conditions.

• Satellite A40-211: RTC battery is low or CMOS checksum is inconsistent

  Hello

  I bought a functioning Satellite A40 - 211 of one of my friends, who had a defective model A60 from where I took the fast hard drive, the memoryupgrade and the internal wifi card, but the only annoying on the A40-211 new thingie is the message that the RTC battery is low or CMOS is incompatible whenever the laptop is turned off and turned on again (which also happens when a warm reboot is done)

  After checking the laptop for any other problem (there was none), I decided to replace the RTC battery with a new... about 17,-euros in total cost. (Of the disassemble the whole laptop, but it has more than once 100 or so with other models, takes 15 minutes to disassemble and put them all back again once)
  Did charge it new CCF to power the laptop up and leave it for at least 24 hours... (the manual says to do)

  No results... always the same... boring message.

  I also tried to reflash the bios, but the version 1.50 seems ok and cannot be replaced by the programming software.

  So, we have a good laptop to work here, but with an annoying message that cannot be solved?

  Anyone with a good tip?

  OK, a response to myself, because I've been tracking something here...

  I replaced the hard drive to another laptop (Satellite A60 series) to the A40-211... installing Windows could be transferred, since the IDE controllers are the same... then just install some other vga - and sounddrivers to operate...

  But... somehow with the new hard drive and therefore installation, date/time settings are lost after a restart or power off...
  I also discovered that the installation of 'old' will not go into sleep - or standbymode... it will only close...

  Then. I'll make a recovery disk hard 'new' facility, because it is faster than the original that came with the A40.

  I'll keep things updated here... also because this isn't a real solution to the question...

  Now, the question is: what makes the time/date setting go lost after this laptop with a non-on-this-laptop-installed-OS off the power?

• Satellite A40-S161: RTC battery low

  Hi guys,.

  I need urgent help. I have a laptop, Toshiba Satellite A40-S161, which gives me the following error whenever I restart the machine "RTC battery is low or CMOS checksum is inconsistent."

  I took the laptop to my local dealers who replaced the CMOS battery and advised me to leave the machine 'fees' for 6 hours [what I did], and the problem persists. Is there advice that I could follow to remedy the situation?

  Hello

  AFAIK in user? manuals it s nice instruction how to deal with it. If I am memory while the unit must be turned on, connected to the power supply current minimum 8 hours.

• Satellite Pro A10: RTC battery is low or CMOS chesksum unstable

  I have a Satellite Pro A10.

  When I turn everything first laptop computer on I get RTC battery is low or CMOS checksum is unstable - press F1 to set date/time. When I press F1, I get a beep and it's everything that happens. I'm unable to had to set up or do anything at all with the installation program.

  I kept it plugged in for 24 hours, but still the same results. I replaced the CMOS battery with a new. But even once, I get the exact same results.

  All that happens when I press F1 and a sound signal. Is this a sign that I have probably a problem with the motherboard?

  You can access the BIOS and could try to set the default settings, and then save the settings and start again.
  If it doesn't, then it must be another reason for this message.

  My first thought was that this error pops up because the BIOS battery is empty.
  Usually such charge as described in your ad should help get rid of this message.
  But it seems that there is a more serious problem

  I m not quite sure what this could be, but the hypothesis that a motherboard could malfunction is not wrong.
  I think that a fault of mobo might this causes too.

  But in my opinion a mobile technician must check to make sure what's wrong.

• Portege 3020ct: RTC battery replacement

  I have an old Portege 3020ct and * I need to replace the 2.4 V - RTC * (real time clock) * battery *.
  I already deleted the keyboard unit and the rest of the cover "palm". But I could not find the battery anywhere.
  Anyone know where I can find the RTC battery?

  Thanks for the help!

  Eh, it's that old laptop model.
  I presume you have disassembled the machine full, right?

  RTC battery is placed on the system board. For the RTC battery free you need to disconnect the speaker of PJ16 beam. It is covered with adhesive tape. RTC battery is connected to the PJ12. It is covered with insulation of RTC.

  I hope that this some info will help you find the way to remove the RTC battery.

• Question about upgrading RAM on Satellite P100-423

  Hello

  can someone reassure me I'll buy the correct RAM and the best for my 2 Satellites. One is the P100-423.
  The other is Satellite Pro P100.

  (1) can I use modules of PC2 5300 DDR2 SO-DIMM 200 pin - 667 Mhz on both computers.
  I want to buy chips to 4 x 1 GB (all the same), so both will have 2 Gig ram PC.

  (2) I saw the bullets above with 533 Mhz, but told me I can use or 667 Mhz. Is this correct?
  667 Mhz would be faster and better is not it?

  (3) some chips are also designated PC2 - 4200 - instead of PC2-5300. Again, I can use either?

  (4) Finally, I always thought that it was better for if adapt to 2 memory chips to live the same size - that is why I want to use 2 x 1 GB chips.
  Yet, I was recommended to mount 1 x 1 and 1 x 2 GB in each pc.
  I know that IE a total of 4 GB is theoretical only 3.25 GB is possible.
  But asymmetric training will offer much greater performance on balance training 2 x 1 GB. ?

  Thank you very much for all the advice offered

  Robert

  With the help of RAM slower is possible. I have another laptop to work with the iso 4200 5300. It works ok.

  However, using the exact speed is better because it gives the best performance. Your system calendar is set on those memories.

  However slower modules, but more RAM still will give you better performance.

  3G seems to be the max for Vista-32. The imbalance is obviously not optimal, but I expect that the performance is better with 2 GB.

• Portege R100: RTC battery replacement

  Problem: On my computer laptop Portege R100 the RTC battery needs to be replaced (laptop loses date and time system start-up after having done automatically stop when the batteries were empty).

  Question: I am trying to figure if this RTC battery is easily replaceable, i.e. I can order it from my dealer and can their technician quickly/easily replace the battery or is this battery soldered to the motherboard and replacement has so to do by Toshiba technicians, which means that my laptop will be gone for a few weeks?

  Thanks a lot for any input.

  Hello

  As I know the RTC battery is not soldered on the card mother but only connected with the cable. To remove the CMOS battery, you have to disconnect the cable from battery RTC PJ8760 on the system board and remove the battery from the RTC to the RTC battery.

  All that s. But if you have no experience in these things you shouldn't t replace yourself. The safe option is to contact the Toshiba service partner to change the battery. Here, you can also order one compatible

• Cell G6 RTC battery replacement

  Can anyone provide a link to a video for REPLACED the RTC battery in my notebook pavilion g6, thx!

  Here is the Service Manual: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02829479.pdf
  
  Go to Page 49, he'll show you the replacement procedure.
  Just remove the battery & door service, there will be a clip holding it. Just release it to get out of the cell.
  But in the video and the thread that I posted above, a group holding cell has been described. But who is not in the product manual. I think there is no problem with that, you could just pick it out by releasing the clips.

• Satellite A45 - S121 RTC battery low or unstable CMOS

  I have a Toshiba A45-S121 that I got from a friend who has left the country...
  I keep going back to the same message over and over again and cannot activate it because it keeps doing again and again.

  The message is: "RTC battery is low or CMOS checksum is inconsistent, press F1 to reset the date and time." It would have been great if it was, that I should have done, but at this stage no button does nothing, and the only thing I can do is to restart... I looked on the net, and someone said to recharge, the main battery for 8 hrs, will do... NOT.

  Another said to rest with charger for 15 h and have the laptop on at the same time... NO help there.
  Another was told to change the battery Cmos... Did this... NO help.

  I tried F12 thing... the computer is located in the startup Toshiba logo, and as soon as I press another key, it goes back to this message... I can't do the BIOS, and I can't run it from a CD, until I have this message.

  HELP PLEASE.

  Hanks a lot.

  > The message is: "RTC battery is low or CMOS checksum is inconsistent, press F1 to reset the date and time." It would have been great if it was, that I should have done, but at this stage no button does nothing, and the only thing I can do is to restart

  Usually this or similar message appears if the battery CMOS/RTC would be empty.
  In this case, you should be able to solve this problem of the RTC battery.
  How to recharge?
  The laptop must be turned on and connected to the power supply for approximately 24 hours.

  But I see you've also already replaced the RTC battery and this message still appears.
  In addition it seems that you are not able to access the BIOS to change the date/time settings.
  Well, this would mean that there is a serious problem on the motherboard

  I think that only a laptop computer technician would be able to help you.

• Issue of Pro 6100 satellite about the RTC battery

  I know it's a huge topic which will be discussed on, and my Toshiba is screwed. I even did a lot of research and found it disappointing that my Toshiba may not be repairable, but I have a question;

  When I boot my Toshiba, it looks good, and I can run normal programs (I get the error of bad RTC battery), but for some reason, the Toshiba randomly freezes and I have to stop it after 5 to 20 minutes to use me.

  I tried to leave it on, as some other forum topics proposed to charge the bettery RTC and it went okay, then 20 minutes later, it froze and I had to reboot.

  Sometimes it is not still turn just after that I have forcefully arrested, so I have to wait from hours to days so he can go back on. But it's useless cause it hangs again.

  Any input on it's great and I'll take advice for this problem. I want the RTC battery but it keeps freezing on me, if I want to find a way to prevent this. Thank you!

  PS: ASP Toshiba Theres two locations in my city (Markham, Ontario, Canada), so if all else fails, I'll take the laptop with my father at one of these places.

  Hello

  If you want to reload the RTC battery you don t need boot up the laptop.
  You can simply connect the AC adapter to the laptop and allow it to charge for a piece of 8 to 12 hours.

  The freezing issue for me sounds like an overheating problem. This can happen because of the dust and debris inside the laptop. In such cases, cooling modules may not work correctly.
  In case you I recommend first charging the RTC battery (don t need to turn on the device), then to clean the fans (you can use carefully vacuuming).
  If the laptop freezes then you could try to reinstall the operating system.

  If all of these tips n help so you should ask the ASP for the verification of the laptop.
