  • LED flashing - need to know the Satellite Pro 6100 POST error codes

    When I tried to turn on my Satellite Pro 6100 laptop the Green DC in power light turned orange and started to blink.
    It flashes 5 times, then 3 times then repeats.

    I guess that this indicates a failure in the system, but where can I find what means this error code?

    Hello

    You can read the flashing code very easily short flashing means 0 long average 1.
    Then you read the complete code back.

    Finally, the error code must be converted into HEXADECIMAL value and then a technician of the laptop could know what means this value.

    The ASP in your country should provide details of the mentioned error.

  • No WLAN on Satellite Pro 6100 light

    Hello
    I have a Satellite Pro 6100. But there is no Wlan light, if I turn on the wlan switch. I did a Bios Update to 1.9, but wifi does not work.
    Is it possible that the on-off wlan switch is damaged, or what could be the problem?

    Hello

    Did you check if the wireless card is already preinstalled on you laptop.
    Have you ever used this option?

    I agree with you... it of not impossible that the WLan switch on the side of the laptop is broken.

    The switch allows you to activate on the motherboard and allows the WLan antenna.
    If there is a hardware malfunction for example a loose contact outside help is necessary. In this case, the ASP must check the unit

    The LED provides a microcode and only the technician can read this code.
    A common user is not able to read.

    Maybe you'll be able to read this code, but you won't find any description about the meaning of the code.
    I recommend you contact the technician in your country

  • Satellite Pro 6100 - problem starting (light flashing Orange)

    On my laptop Satellite Pro 6100, seeing DC IN (first on the left) flashes orange and the laptop does nothing else (no display or sound). The light flashes for 8 times, has a long pause and then starts all over again.

    I tried a different adapter with no joy. It does the same thing if you use only the battery and if you run from the adapter without the battery.

    The only time wherever it shows a different light is when you take the battery out, put back in and hold the power button. Led Slim Select Bay (second right) briefly turns green, but it turns off and the led DC IN resumption of the orange blink.

    It seems likely that it is an internal hardware problem (power supply, motherboard, etc.). Does anyone have any ideas? And as anyone knows anywhere which lists all the different orange light codes for Toshiba laptops?

    Hi André,.

    You are right in thinking that there is a hardware failure (most likely your motherboard). Flashing codes are used by service technicians to indicate the nature of the fault and I have yet to find anywhere who publishes the real meaning of these codes.

    I think it looks like a trip to the nearest Service Agent. :-(

  • Satellite Pro 6100 - code beep at startup

    Hi all

    Just picked up a 6100 Pro of the Satellite with a few problems.

    It lights up, he pointed out the HARD drive and I can hear the disk activity. However, the screen remains blank and a single beep can be learned after 20 sec. White screen, as I understand it, is probably the issue of Council power raging in the SP6xxx series. However, the beep I do not understand.

    I know that 2 beeps or 3 beeps is incompatibility of memory but no one knows which denotes the beep?

    Hey Buddy,

    To be honest it's not easy to say what the cause of the problem because it could be everything and Satellite Pro 6100 is old enough for laptop.

    You have two memory modules RAM? If so remove a module. Always try a module only at the same time and test it in the slot of RAM A and B. A module is may be defective or a slot.

    If this is not the case, there seems to be a problem with the motherboard or the CPU itself. If you can exchange these things, try it yourself as a repair would be too expensive for this good old classic I think.
    Second hand spare parts you can get it on eBay s worth a try! ;)

  • Satellite Pro 6100 - no idea on I need drivers

    Hello
    Well, I brought a Satallite Pro off ebay a few days back but I can't find what I need.
    I don't have any idea what the laptop except a Satallite Pro 6100 1.7 ghz, 512 MB ram mobile P4 CPU graphics card nividia.

    It would be great if I could know what laptop that I use to download the drivers, or at least be done in which I need only one I'd love to be able to change the brightness of the display by using the fn + F5 key and have the screen filling the LCD.

    Thank you.
    Mike.

    Hello

    I put t really understand your problem

    The European driver from Toshiba site provides all the important and necessary drivers for the Satellite Pro 6100.

    I assume you mean on the XP drivers
    Install all.

    In a first step, I recommend the installation of the common Module Chip Set Utility, display driver and then continue with the rest

    If you have installed SP2 please check the "Microsoft Windows XP SP2 update information" because some tools need to be updated.

    Hello

    How do you know what the flashing of led said you? You are a sort of technician? How can you know that the "blink" (long, short) are 0 and 1.
    Do you know how to assemble the circuit board and don't you know that the things you have take care? Who PCB´s that you have exchanged?
    You said:

    Hand and VGA

    but the powerpcb too? And how do you know that the PCB´s are ok? Because why someone is selling you that with the 'work' of description?

    Would appreciate some feedback from you

  • Install the new hard drive on Satellite Pro 6100

    Hello

    I have the Satellite Pro 6100 and the hard drive has failed. Bought a new hard drive but have no idea where to begin to install it. Also, I have the product key for windows xp pro, but don't have a disc. Is there a way to get around get one, or someone has any ideas please?

    Thank you

    Michelle

    Hmmmm... It's very strange that you n t have idea how to start. Throughout history, there are only two options:
    -for the installation of an operating system you can use the original Toshiba Recovery disk that came with this laptop. If you n t have it then
    -use the Microsoft installation for the installation of the OS disc. All the drivers, tools and utilities must be installed Additionally one by one. Each of them you can find on Toshiba download page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads

    Please note: the product key at the bottom belongs to original recovery image so you probably won't be able to use it for the activation of the operating system.

    Hello

    I put t think you will be able to do anything that would bring back the laptop from the dead.

    According to your description books sends a flashing error code that appears always if a motherboard error has been detected.

    In your case only an ASP might help you.

    First, the technician would be able to read the code and then to know what part is malfunctioning.

    In the worst cases, the motherboard must be replaced; (and this could be a costly affair.

    Good luck

  • New on Satellite Pro 6100 WLAN card installed, but can not be activated

    Hi, just replaced the internal Wireless LAN card on my laptop Satellite Pro 6100. Map of yesterday and today have the same problem: I can't turn them on. They are installed properly and supposed to run in what concerns the XP drivers, but does not detect wireless network andy saying it is "disabled".

    I tried upgrading to the latest version of BIOS
    I reinstalled the latest drivers
    Toshiba network device switch sees only the Intel Pro/100 VE wired, network card, but not the card the Intel Pro/Wireless 2200BG.
    Direct activation of the Wireles does not produce a said connection disable, enable, trying to connect, but it fails, as if he did not see the network.

    Past and present, wireless card fail to see any network.

    Martin

    Hello Martin

    This model of laptop is quite old and at that time 2200 card was not on the market. I can imagine that there is a compatibility issue.

    I think for older models of laptops, the best solution is the use of a faster but external solution in the form of PCMCIA or USB WLAN card. With the help of these cards you will not have compatibility issues.
    What do you think of this?

  • Satellite Pro 6100 - Wireless Lan cannot be activated.

    All afternoon - I have just my hands on a Satellite Pro 6100 and am impressed to bits with it.
    The only thing that is bothering me is put on the wireless LAN doesn't work. Here is what I tried:

    (1) use the switch on the left side of the laptop - push back for "wireless WE"-no led or an indicator.
    (2) use the FN and F8 for the shortcut - key no joy.
    (3) install all the drivers available.

    It is to have no chance at all. I currently have Windows XP SP2 on board and have lost count of the restarts. I looked at the page update SP2 and found a registry setting, but that does not change. I'm pretty sure that there is a wireless card installed - I found the antenna, but I would appreciate some advice please if anyone has experience this, or is somewhat an expert at this.

    Thanks in advance to you all,.

    Select this option.

    It worked before or since when did that happen?
    You could take a look at the Device Manager if the wlan device is entered correctly without no exclamation point.
    Correctly installed all the drivers and updated? Maybe a BIOS update can help.

    Of course, the laptop was equipped with wlan? Not all 6100 built in wlan.

  • Satellite Pro 6100: cannot get into the BIOS and does not start

    I have a portable Satellite pro 6100, en I was trying to boot from an external USB hard drive. When I activated the second hard drive option in the BIOS it has stopped booting all in all, I can't even get into the BIOS Setup more. All I get is "In touch with tomorrow TOSHIBA" screen with the icons to select the method of priming preferred manually after it's just blank screen with a cursor blinking in the upper left.

    Press ESC or F8 before to turn usually results in fast beeps sounds.
    Press tilde (~) before turn is reflected in the remaining space screen (not even the home toshiba screen appears) and slow Zens sounds.

    Apart from that I can't really do nothing at all.
    I tried to reset the BIOS by disconnecting the battery CMOS/RTC (hoewever, we call it) of the motherboard for a while with no results.

    Turn on/off without the results of HD internal in a white screen with an ERROR 'IDE #0.
    I can always stop by pressing the power button, you don't have to bother on the external hard drive it past I don't even want it works more.

    Suggestions?

    Hello

    I agree with Graeme. Your HARD drive is probably faulty. Sorry, but I don't think that you will be able to use the external HARD drive. The option in the BIOS is not for EXTERNAL HARD drive is just, I guess, for disk HARD placed in select Bay.

  • Satellite Pro 6100 - error "password HARD drive built-in" at startup

    Hi, my laptop (Satellite Pro 6100 P4 - M 1.7 GHz/15TFT/256 MB / 40 GB/DVD-CDRW/LAN/WiFi/BT/W2K or XP) started rather recently invited me with a "Built-in HARD drive password" message at startup upward. I never put no password on the hard drive in the past, though only in desperation to try to get the laptop running, have tried all the possible passwords I have ever had. Nothing works and I'm failed with a laptop dead on my hands. I would appreciate any help/advice anyone can make.

    Thank you.

    Hi Khurram

    Unfortunately I think that you will need to replace your hard drive. If your laptop is definitely ask a HDD password then there is no way around it and the only way I know to recover from this situation is to send the hard drive to a specialised company that specialize in this kind of recovery (usually for forensic purposes, Police, armed forces, etc.). This can be very costly.

    The easier (and cheaper) option would be for you to replace the hard drive and restore your system and your data (either from a backup if you have one, or from the Toshiba recovery disks).

    Kind regards
