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 M45-S269 shuts down and won't restart

    I have a satellite M series, it froze during use, and when I went to restart it would not immediately.

Can someone help me?

    Hello

    > I bought the new battery, but who did not problem
    Why do you think that this problem could be linked to the defective battery?

    First of all, we need to clarify if this problem could be related to hardware or software problem.
    In this case the best way to know what's wrong is to begin the process of recovery from the original recovery CD Toshiba. This CD installs the new Win operating system, drivers, and additional software.

    Usually after the new installation the phone should start properly, without big problems.

    But if it doesn't work after the new installation then a unique malfunction of hardware components. I think firstly on the memory modules and HARD drive

    Hello

    Have you checked if you can boot into safe mode? You can try to start in safe mode if you go into the advanced boot menu by pressing F8 after you have switched on the laptop. Here you can choose.
    Maybe you can also try a system restore to a previous state.

    If it doesn t work it should boot from the recovery disk Toshiba and reinstalling Windows.

  • USB-6009 DAQmx meter task stops and does not restart when you restart the VI

    I have the task of counter DAQmx which "hangs up" while troubleshooting a VI and does not restart when I restart Traoré.  See attached fragment VI.  The counter works reliably in normal operation, but some combinations of interruption and running "highlighted" causes to stop work.  It's in LabVIEW 2009.

    It will restart if I close the VI and reopen it.  However, this causes losing me my window probe laboriously built with ten

    the probes.

    Is it possible to re - initialize a DAQmx task without closing the VI?

    This significantly slows the troubleshooting.

    As an alternative, if anyone can suggest a way to preserve a probe Watch window after closing of associated VI, it would be a work around.

    Please do not take into account.

    Counteract the work of task - it's the rest of the program which is hung up.

  • Satellite P300-161: alarm low and criticism not fire

    Hello.

    I just bought a Satellite P300-161 with Vista and every time alarm if there is only a pop-up notification at the low or critical level, you but no sound alarm. I checked the settings under "advanced power management" and "battery" and both have the value default to 'ON' for low and critical battery alarm.

    I also made sure there is a noise linked to these events under 'Hardware and sound', 'System sounds' and "low battery alarm" and a criticism.

    The default sounds are really sweet so I registered and chosen my sensors clean up but still no luck.

    I did a search on google and apparently several people had the same problem. In addition to suggest to both look like the above parameters, some have said that it is a general problem with Vista that will be fixed with service pack 1. I already service Pack1 so that does not solve it.

    The other thing that I found via google is that apparently Vista doesn't offer it through the message system, but makes it available for 3rd party software. It seems ridiculous that Toshiba withdrew its usefulness because of power management especially in Vista.

    I wouldn't mind an alarm from the BIOS, but looking at the settings, I couldn't find all the options. I can only note a pop up and if I play music or something, I have completely run out and the computer into hibernation which is really annoying.

    I would be grateful if anyone has any suggetions on how to solve the problem.

    Alfonso.

    Open the Volume mixer and make sure that Windows sound option is not set to mute.

  • Dell Vostro 430 sometimes breaks down and does not find the hard drive in the bios

    So I have this old - ish Dell Vostro 430, intel cpu, windows 7 hard disk sata 250 GB, 4 GB of ram.

    Update BIOS to the latest version 2.4.0

    In certain exceptional circumstances, this PC sometimes crashes in windows, it is restarted, and then when he comes back it does not find the hard drive as a gift. He is not seen in the bios and does not start.

    To fix, I have to unplug the power cable, wait a few seconds, plug in, reboot the computer and it starts normally, load windows and everything.

    So far, I have tried to paginate on another hard disk, reinstall the Windows operating system from scratch, and same thing happens from time to time.

    It is difficult to find the cause of the problem, because this happens very rarely.

    Sometimes, when the pc is turned on for the first time in the morning, the hard drive is not found by the bios and we reappear at the same trick (disconnect the power cable) to take him back.

    When it crashes when using inside Windows, it seems that the reason is the computer can't find the hard drive.

    Such computer is out of warranty.

    It would be nice to just throw this computer because it is still fine for the work it has to do, + I have Windows and Office OEM license on it, as well as many other software that I have to reinstall etc.etc.

    No idea what I could troubleshoot?

    Maybe change the motherboard? How can I buy a new motherboard for an out of warranty Dell?

    While possibly keeping all the OEM licenses (Windows 7 and Office 2007).

    • Have you tried to replace the battery in the motherboard, if nothing else than to exclude it? CR2032, 3-volt lithium-ion, ~ $2 at discount stores. Do not forget to open the BIOS Setup and copy down all current settings first because remove battery BIOS resets the default values, which is maybe not correct for your specific system.
    • Have you tried another SATA data cable, or reinstall the existing at both ends?
    • Have you reinstall RAM and PCI card in their slots?
    • Have you used canned air to blow out the dust?
    • Maybe a power supply problem... ? If insufficient voltage, he could not start the HARD drive quite fast at startup, or quick enough after your option settings to be able to turn the HARD drive off when it is not accessed, what may cause this error message 'not found '.
    • If you use a power strip or surge protector, have you deleted and the PC connected directly to a wall jack?

    If it is a motherboard defective and you replace it with another jury of Vostro 430, you shouldn't have any problems with Windows or Office licenses. Assuming you are using Windows Dell reinstall for exact same version of Windows drive that was installed at the factory, it should not even ask the product key, if you must reinstall Windows on the HARD drive. But even if she asks, there should be a sticker somewhere on the PC with your unique product key so you can enter if the installer made the request.

    and make sure you have the Office product key too...

  • Laptop frequently is off and does not restart even when the Start button / stop is held in

    I have a notebook dv7-3060us running Windows 7, some mornings (every few days or weeks), I find, powered out and does not.  In press and hold the power button for 5-10 seconds has no effect.  I have to unplug and remove the battery to restart.  What happened several times.  I tried it with the battery removed, and it fails again, then.

    A software problem can cause this?  I thought that holding the power button causes a material interruption and the BIOS takes over.

    Is there a known hardware problem which can cause this?

    Thank you

    Adam

    Hi Sean,.

    Thanks for the suggestion.  Unfortunately, the steps listed for a hard reset was precisely what was needed to market every day.  So, we did about 50 times.  The real issue was whether a software problem could cause the phone to require a hard reset every time.

    After not getting no response for a few weeks, I have restored your computer from a backup, I made after the update in the first place and then re-set everything.  So far, it has remained stable, which brings me to the conclusion that it is, in fact, a software issue.

    Kind regards

  • 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.

  • 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.

    Is there a solution for this problem?

    > mic in my laptop through my speakers is always on.
    As far as I know that the headphones or external speakers would disable the internal speakers and not the external microphone.
    So in my opinion it is not a hole...

    However, you can check the settings in the control panel-> SmartAudio
    It allows to switch between different options

    In addition, you can check the microphone settings in the detroit (Panel).
