Satellite P300-161: alarm low and criticism not fire

Similar Questions

• Satellite P300 question, shuts down and does not restart intermittently.

  My wifes p300 presents a very confusing and annoying problem. She is now on her 3rd replacement the last two having the same problem.

  I just turned off intermittently for no reason, a few times, it will restart but sometimes he used. So if I remove the battery and plug in the power that it restarts again however it then turns off again and do not restart unless the battery is returned. I think it may be a problem with the battery and the power cable as she said that the problem will only get worse if the computer will run on battery power for a while.

  I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem or had any suggestions as to what could be the problem.

  Bill has soon

  Hello Bill and please describe your opinion on this subject. Reading your first post I ve also thought it should be overheating issue, but after this second announcement, I imagine that the food may be responsible for this turn off suddenly question.

  Please post the results of the investigation. It can be really interesting to know what the problem is here.

• Satellite P300 - 161 freeze randomly.

  Hi all

  I have some problem with my Satellite P300-161.
  He is running on MS Vista and I get random freezing with the computer laptop everything.

  By freezing, I hear every application that runs past to the mode "not responding" and it freezes for about 10 seconds, then after 10 seconds or so everything will return to normal. HOWEVER, sometimes in frozen mode, I can thaw the laptop while hitting / drawing the space next to the touchpad... I know it's bad, but it's the best way to solve this problem.

  Is there anyone who knows why it freezes like that? Internal hardware problem? This component is under the area as I type?

  Oh I should add also that when he is in frozen mode, there is this very very slight hum from the laptop, that noise disappears as soon as the laptop stops freezing.

  Thanks in advance.

  PS. I uninstalled the operating system more twice if the OS is not the problem as I know.

  Why create the son second on the same topic?
  I think that you should not create different threads and should follow your first discussion:

• Re: Satellite P300-161-Lock-ups/freeze randomly

  Hi all

  I've had my laptop Toshiba Satellite P300-161 for about 6 months now. However, in the last month or so... I've known a freeze at random the computer laptop everything.

  It usually starts at any time... then it will pause and then start to freeze again. When it freezes, it lasts about 10-15 seconds, and everything goes to "not responding". Even the keys Ctrl + Alt + Delete load the Task Manager after the stop of the gel. However, I have discovered that when it is in its 'freeze', where applications are unresponsive, I can give the laptop a gentle tap with my hand on the area of the free space to the right of the touchpad... and he thaws... It is certainly a bad thing.

  I intend to take this back to where I bought it from and have it sent to Toshiba for repair because I have a 2 year warranty with them IF I can't get some help here.

  Many need help.

  Thanks in advance,

  Benny FUNG.

  Hello!

  I m not sure because it is not easy to say what the reason for this, but have you tried to clean up your laptop using a jet of compressed air?
  Maybe the laptop is overheating and so it begins to freeze. Check it!

  You have Windows XP or Vista? Have you tried to reinstall? It is perhaps only a s software problem.
  How do you think about this?

  Good bye

• Satellite P300-161 - graphic upgrade

  Hello. The graphics maintains not on my Toshiba Satellite P300-161 of the same after a clean reinstall of Windows. I'm looking to replace the graphics card from ATI Radeon Mobility HD 3470 (which is not soldered on the motherboard).

  Can I rather upgrade or get a new card?

  I'm asking this is because I had trouble finding exactly the same everywhere! Thanks in advance.

  GPU upgrade is not supported so either you exchange the card or you have to search entire motherboard.

• Satellite P300-1 year - backward and forward compatibility

  Hi all

  fisrt of all thanks in advance to anyone who could help me.

  I had some problems with my Satellite P300-1 year, which comes with Vista Home premium, I think that for some 'bad' something SW installation becomes to be 'unstable' (i.e. help guide disappeared and also search folder no longer works, other things more "spots"...).

  So, since vista is not my favorite one (start too long), I intend to advance towards the back (Win XP, which I already drive), or (windows 7, I need to buy).
  So here's the question: is compatible P300-1 year (I want to say is there every driver available for) under Windows XP or Windows 7.

  Latest: is it possible to upgrade directly WITHOUT doing a CLEAN install (to avoid the backup or re - install SW) from vista to 7 (and if yes which: home, pro, ultimate?).

  Thanks again
  BRs

  Hello

  You can use both: Win XP and Win 7.
  But I prefer Win 7 because it is the most recent Windows system and the best.
  In addition, Win 7 will build more Win XP and all new applications are designed for Win 7.

  I also have the map on E:\HDDRecovery with all the files in it (4.12 GB).

  Is there a way that the program works or can I make HDDRecovery map an ISO image and burn it to a cd?

  Hello

  > I do not have to uninstall the program, it is also on my list of software. I can see the program in C:\Program Toshiba Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator, but when I click on ToRDC.exe it does not start.
  Sorry for my question but what you want to do exactly?
  You want to retrieve the laptop using the recovery disk or you want to create a recovery disk?

  The Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator creates the recovery disk using files in HARD disk recovery file that is placed on the second partition.

  If you want to recover the laptop, then you simply boot from the recovery disc.

• Satellite Pro L450D black screen and will not respond to any keys

  Hello

  My niece has used his Toshiba L450D for almost a year now and he really liked it, who was until last month. She turned on her laptop and when she presses the button of the mouse, the button cracked and he fell into the laptop.

  Now my brother contacted Toshiba and I was told because it is under warranty it might return for repair because it was a common fault. Then he he packed in loads of air bubbles and a box to make sure it was safe.

  A few weeks later he came back repaired but we were all shocked that the laptop was put in a very loose box and you could hear this rattling noise. When we turned on the battery was flat and we had a new boot menu.

  As she installed it Windows 7 laptop would boot directly into Windows 7, but now after the repair of the laptop shows a menu black screen with as follows:

  + Windows 7 +.
  + Recover Windows to Factory Settings [active EMS] +.

  So we started in Windows and everything went well, but now after 5 or 10 or even 20 minutes, laptop displays a black screen and will not respond to keys or mouse movement. There is nothing on the screen its just black.

  I started in SafeMode (which was more difficult with the new menu) and it does the same thing. I even managed to do a virus scan quick who took 3-4 minutes and was clean.

  I would like some advice on what my niece is very angry, and it's difficult to explain what is happening to a child in the primary school.

  Any help would be grateful.

  Hello

  Have you tried the option of HARD drive recovery?

  If this is not the case, try to set the notebook back to factory settings using HARD drive recovery.
  Turn on the device, press F12, choose repair my computer, then select Toshiba HDD recovery.

  I hope it will work!

• Satellite M50D-A-103 crashed and does not light

  Hello

  I have a Satellite m50d-a-103, which takes place in Ubuntu.

  The operating system crashed recently. I'm not sure if the laptop off really or not. But the screen is dark, and the laptop does not start when you press the power button.

  The only thing that made laptop is that the power light flashes 5 times when the switch is released (no matter how long he was supported before). There is no - screen start or anything, the screen is totally black.

  Located help here suggests I have remove the RAM, but I'm not sure it's a good idea, because I'm not sure that the laptop is off.

  What I've tried is pressed the power button for 20 seconds. I tried also pressing the - or what I guess is the reset button on the back of the laptop.

  The only idea I have now is to hope that the laptop does not work because indeed, there not turn power off and wait until the battery is empty. But I'm afraid that it will take a lot of time.

  So my questions are:

  -How can I fix?
  -How can I find out if the laptop is turned off?
  S ' it is not actually disabled, how do I disable it (it has an internal battery, so removing it will not be easy)?
  - Or is this a hardware problem? And if so, how can I find out component that could be the problem?

  Thanks for any help you can offer!

  [for some reason, I can't edit my original post]

  I couldn't find the manual for the a m50d on toshibas website, but I hurt here: http://www.manualslib.com/products/T...A-3509950.html.

  For the white flashing indicator power, it is said: "Indicates that the computer is in mode 'sleep' and that there is enough available power (mains or battery adapter) to maintain this State."

  So I guess that my initial assumption may be correct. I still don't know not how out of fashion "before" however.

  Any ideas?
  Thank you.

• Connectivity LAN on Satellite L20-205 works sometimes and sometimes not

  Hello

  Well im using ethernet to connect to internet. The thing is, sometimes it works, sometimes not. There are times when I can connect immediately after that I turned on the laptop, there are moments where the connection becomes available after 10 minutes of operation of the laptop, sometimes it doesn't quite work.

  However, sometimes the connection could freeze even after running for some time. Actually, its kind of voodoo magic connection to the net via this phone. It is said that the cable is connected, but there is 0 packets. It frustrates some me... so I'm wondering if anyone has come across a similar behaviour of his satellites?

  Hello

  On this path, it is not easy to say why this is happening. Good and stable connectivity LAN depends on a few different factors. You must know that this laptop can not only peripheral being responsible for this. I put t know what LAN you use (probably DSL at home), but you must also check if the ADSL modem or router is configured correctly.

  If you are free, try to connect to your laptop to some other LAN to check how it works on an independent network. I really can't imagine that LAN card or driver may be responsible for this.

  I use at home of DSL connectivity and if the router is without power for a while, it can takes about 10 minutes before I can use an Internet connection.

• During BIOS update by Satellite Pro A60 went down and did not start

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite Pro A60 and I've updated the bios. To halfway the update, my laptop came down and started Hasna´t since. It only give a couple of beeps (trying to tell me the bios is damaged, I guess) and turns off again.

  Tried to start with (~) key pressed (a tip I received from a friend), but without success.

  I live in a country where there is no available Toshiba dealer and I rather not ship the laptop for repair.

  Does anyone know how to fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  This doesn't sound good.
  If during the POST, the BIOS detects a problem, it will normally display an error message visual on the monitor explaining what the problem is. However, if a problem is detected before it initializes BIOS video card or a video card is not present or not detected then BIOS will play through the Speaker beeps to let you know there is a problem.
  Depending on the type of BIOS you have the BIOS can play beeps in a specific pattern to indicate what the problem is, or emits the signal even a few times indicating the problem.

  In your case, it is possible to s you used a bad BIOS or bad BIOS procedure. Both can damage the motherboard.
  To avoid such damage and mistakes, Toshiba published FAQ document.
  How to upgrade the BIOS on most of the units!

  That you should read before making updates to the BIOS!
  Unfortunately, I n t think that you can fix yourself. I think you should ask to help ASP.
