Satellite Pro 6000-> led power failure blinking

Hello

I recently bought a 2nd hand 6000 Pro for my wife to use. After less than three weeks, he has developed a fault, by which she is being held for so long and then just turned off. This is regardless of the power source - battery or one adapter.

Sometimes it will last 20 minutes or more, other times he'll do it right away - power, two or three seconds and distributed.
Power led blinking (Amber) in a sequence of 8, which gives the error code. 1 being one long blink and 0 being short is: 10001001. Reverse it gives 10010001 = 91 h hex? The research on the net I found that 91 h means "1R5 - E1V voltage is not more than 1.275V when the computer is turned on" so I guess that would exclude the video card and laptop computer needs service?

If it's a case of having to reinstall the video card, it is a particularly difficult task? I found a site that shows how the band down a 6100 and I am happy to give it a go, but if it's the related power then I don't see much sense.

Thanks to all who read this and I value any help...

Hello

First of all I am very impressed with your PC knowledge and can simply confirm that there is some problem with electronic card. I must also say that it isn't best idea to do something alone. Because of the design sensitive laptop disassembly can be very risky for people without sufficient knowledge or maintenance manuals.

OK if you found the instructions somewhere on the net, you can try, but if something is not the whole situation can be just get worse than before. Because of this I recommend you contact the service. Talk with them and you will see what they say. Ask how much you should pay for the repair.

  • Satellite Pro 6000 RAM upgrade problems

    Apologies for multiple - originally, I put this in the Satellite rather than the Satellite Pro series Forum.

    I have an old Satellite Pro 6000 that has 256 MB of RAM in it, and accordingly, as he tries harder sound, it is not the fastest machines.

    I want to increase the RAM to 1 GB, which I believe is the maximum and 2 sticks of memory of 512 MB PC133 CL3 3.3V, which I think should work fine.

    However, I tried to install either as a pair or separately, with the 256 MB of RAM, and when I put the memory in, the PC resolutely refuses to start. The lights of power lights, but it is only it works.

    I put the original 256 MB of RAM in the slot, and it works fine.

    I'm something wrong or missing something?

    Any help appreciated gratefully.

    Hello

    > Am I something wrong or missing something?
    Of course, you use the memory bad or is not compatible!

    Initialization not after an upgrade of memory is a common behavior if the modules are not compatible or do not work.

    You can upgrade the memory to 1024 MB (2x512MB) max and page Toshiba should run these modules:
    PC133 512 MB (PA3108U - 1 M 51)
    PC133 256 MB (PA3086U - 1 M 25)
    PC133 128 MB (PA3085U - 1 M 12)

  • Damaged BIOS 1 - Satellite Pro 6000 block

    Hi all

    I bought a laptop, a Satellite Pro 6000, but after a few weeks, he refused to start and gave me the bios message 1 damaged block.

    I downloaded the update to bios on the toshiba site, but it does not work.
    I have an external floppydisc. When I put the .exe to upgrade the bios on a floppy disk and turn on the laptop with the ~ button, I get the message "ready for the update of the bios, place the update disk and press any key when ready."
    I can hear the disk is searched, but nothing happened.

    How do I update the bios or is there something else wrong?
    Any help would be appreciated!

    In my opinion with the BIOS update you can't do anything wrong.
    If you BIOS, update by following the procedure described in the document FAQ Toshiba and the BIOS update can not be done properly, I'm afraid there is a problem with the BIOS chip and it may be defective.

    I can't say for sure, but if the BIOS chip is damaged, then you have a big problem.

  • Satellite Pro 6000 - how can I update the BIOS?

    Hi all

    I have the problem that my laptop does not start 9 of 10 times with the message: * block 1 BIOS is damaged, call your service man.

    I want to update BIOS but for the Satellite Pro 6000 I can only find an update the BIOS from Windows. But my laptop does not start! Rarely the machine starts, but when I try to update the BIOS, I get the message that I already have the latest version of the BIOS

    My questions:
    * Is there a BIOS update file that is a BIOS floppy? (for example the Satellite Pro 6100 has 2 BIOS files, 1 Windows and 1 making a floppy disk)
    * Is it possible to update the BIOS with the same version of Windows?

    Or perhaps there is another solution for this problem? Has no need to update my BIOS?

    Thank you.

    Hans

    Hello

    I agree with Luke.
    The rom Bios module seems to be damage.
    Either it must be replaced or flashed again.

    But you won't be able to do that! The update of the Bios on the Toshiba page focuses on winning and you will not be able to update if the windows are not running.

    You last chance is an ASP that could check the BIOS ROM.
    As I said, most high, maybe new reflash module Rom help but cela can be answered simply by an ASP technician who checked this.

  • Satellite Pro 6000 and Windows Vista

    I bought a Satellite Pro 6000 and I want to put Windows Vista on it. I did an Upgrade Advisor and I was told that this graphics card will not work. Is this true?

    Thanks, Nick

    I'm afraid that's true. Satellite Pro 6000 is old enough for laptop and it will not supported in Vista. Install Windows XP Home edition and enjoy your life.

  • What are Satellite Pro 6000-compatible DVD - RW drives

    Hello

    Can someone tell me which dvd rw is compatible with the satellite pro 6000?

    Hello

    It is always difficult to find information on compatible drives due to different master / slave and c - salt settings.
    In my knowledge don Toshiba user manuals t provide such information. OK, I put t know if all don t user manual provide this, but I've found this info in my user manual.

    However. I studied a little someone suggested that the Toshiba SD-R6372 dvd recorder is compatible with Satellite Pro 6000/6100 units.
    I found this on a very popular online auctioneers ;)

  • Satellite Pro 6000: display or graphics card problem

    Hello
    I don't have a model satellite pro 6000. PS600E-01NYE-FR
    1 GHz P3, 20 GB HDD, wireless bluetooth not running XP

    I understand that it is an old laptop but had been treated with great care because I got it.
    My problem is the following;

    Startup of the laptop is a route very well, but for some reason together and after no set amount of time the display fails
    a wot is visible on-screen is hundreds of tiny colored blocks, sometimes random horizontal lines
    but nothing is readable, at all.

    I tried to run a yellow one also using the video output external monitor, all appear the same.
    a computer display (although I can't check it out) to freeze.

    I replaced the heatsink fan as a precaution (using the new dough)
    the only solution I can find is replaced the ram with
    2 x 256 MB Sync 133 mHz module Samsung. This could be the problem or can anyone shed some light on this for me.

    Thanks in advance
    Display Toshiba SP6000 (?) Problem

    I am not a technician, but I assume that there is probably a problem with the video card. I'm afraid there is not much to do. You should contact the service and make them run tests to verify the functionality of the video card. If the card is faulty, just replacement will help.

  • How can I get a hard copy of a manual for Satellite Pro 6000?

    Hello Forum users

    My brother and I bought my father (at age 81) a Satellite Pro 6000 model PS600E-20EE1-EN on E - Bay for Christmas. There is unfortunately no manual with the laptop. I'm in Australia and my father's in the United Kingdom and he asked me to help to get your hands on a paper manual.

    As I don't know anything about Toshiba laptops or point of sale UK, I was wondering if someone could help. I tried for an hour on the net but could not find a manual to download, which seems to correspond to the above specifications. I guess I could make a phone call international to support the customer in the United Kingdom, but thought I'd try here everything first. My dad would really like a paper, in order to download manual is second best option.

    All the tracks were greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.
