Satellite Pro 6100: LED flashes at a certain frequency

• Satellite Pro 6100 shows flashes code 73 h

  Hello

  I have a SP6100 where only power led flashes.

  I think the code is long - long - short - short - long - long - long - short that represents 73 h I think.

  The picture says

  PPV voltage is not less than 0.68V when the computer is turned off.

  But does that mean? As I'm German I can't really say if this means that the motherboard is broken or if it's something more easy to repair.

  Could someone help me please?

  Best regards
  Matthias

  > I think the code is long - long - short - short - long - long - long - short that represents 73 h I think.
  You are right; It s 73H

  Means of long short 1: 0
  So the code is: 1100 1110
  Due to the least significant bit, must read this by behind; means: 0011 0111
  0111 0011 = 73 H

  However, these codes mean more often that it found a motherboard problem
  I don't think that the replacement motherboard might help you

  But the motherboard is expensive and in my opinion, is not worth a remedy on this oldie...

  Hello

  I have to build in and all I get is an orange error code. So I decide to make me buy a testet PCB (Powerboard) on Ebay, then the same thing! Then I bought a second Geforce but the same error code! So I all exchanged but the processor and I'm ascendant to buy a second to test or do you know Whata´s evil?
  I don't think that the new parts are broken!

  The error, the code of the orange Led is 01000011 or short, long, short, short, short, short, long, long and I did not see what maybe the problem!

  Sorry for my broken English I come from Germany!
  Hope for answers and greetings

  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

• 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.

• Satellite Pro 6100 does not start - power light flashes

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro 6100 when I press the power button and HDD lights up briefly then powerlight blinks.
  It seems to Flash a pattern: on (2 sec) flashes (2 seconds) then off (about 8 times)

  What he told me? No fan, no display no hardrive is active.
  Food is ok because it load battery.
  I bought it as it would be something easy to fix ideas?

  Hello

  It sounds bad
  Generally, the power led will blink due to a malfunction of the equipment.
  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

  But try this:
  Remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter.
  Wait severla times and then plug in the battery and plug in the AC adapter.
  If this does not help, you have aks, a complementary technician...

• 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. :-(

• A Satellite Pro 6100 graphics card does not work correctly

  Hello!

  I have a Satellite Pro 6100 (PS610E - 02c 60-GR) 1.7 Ghz, 256 MB, 40 GB, 15XT and a Geforce4 420 Go (32 MB) graphic card. Until yesterday it was working properly. Now, there are colors on the screen and there was a blue screen a few times, which says something about my graphics card (it disappeared from fast read).
  I uninstalled the old driver and reinstalled twice. Nothing has changed. Also I tried with an external monitor, but there wasn't any change, too.

  Now my questions:
  1. is it possible to change the graphics card (in particular, can I do it alone without a technician)?
  2. How can I do this, is there some tutorials, especially for my laptop?
  3. an another Geforce4, but for example a Geforce4 440 Go with 64 MB of RAM would fit in my notebook?

  I thank very you much in advance!
  Lukas

  Hi Lukas

  The led flashes as it provides a microcode error!
  This is especially if the malfunction of hardware has been detected.
  I presume that the replacement of the graphics card is the reason!

  As in previous discussions suggested the replacement of the graphics card is NOT possible. You don't believe!
  Looks like that the BIOS cannot handle this new graphics chip.

• Satellite Pro 6100 Power failure

  Hello

  My satellite Pro 6100 has a power failure. While that work with the laptop will turn off by itself and the orange led on the left side.

  Is there a codelist of the blinking´s meanings.
  What can be the problem?

  Thank you
  Peter

  Hello

  The left led is an indicator of DC IN. Normally it turns green when the AC adapter DC voltage. If the s output voltage adapter is abnormal or if power outages, this indicator flashes orange. In this case I think that it s a hardware failure and you should contact Toshiba service partner assistance. However information on the LEDs and on your device, you can find in the manual of this device.

  Good bye

• Satellite Pro 6100 cannot get my GyroTransport new 'air mouse' to work

  Satellite Pro 6100 running XP Professional with SP3 and all updates as of 10/24/08.
  BAUGHT a new mouse made by Gyration GyroTransport air, but it won't work on my laptop.
  Tried in several other computers with the same OS and it works very well. In fact as a teacher, I recommend one of these brilliant sound devices.

  I tried all settings via the control panel and can not work on why it won't work.
  The laptop recognizes the name of it when its plugged in but the States, he has a problem. The dongle USB/receiver with a memory stick with some additional software on this subject, but the laptop does not regognise the memorystick at all. He acknowledges that other memory stick no problem.
  That technician school COMPUTER looked at it and can't get by either.

  It is usually on the spot.
  Any body out there of suggestions?

  This mouse works on some laptops newer with USB 2.0 ports?

  One last thing: If you use some additional hardware to help apply the manufacturer's support. Computer laptop manufacturer doesn't provide support for certain third party materials.

• Satellite Pro 6100 stops after 15-30 minutes

  My satellite Pro 6100 Cup after 15 to 30 minutes of operation on power outlet. There is a noise and all the lights go out except orange slow flashing (power problem). I have restore by removing the power cable and wait a while.

  It will then start again. I used two different adapters and two different batteries. It also happens if work on AC with no battery in the. My suspicion is an overheat cut-out. The Sat Pro has a? Could it be clogged with dust inside (it is 5 years old)? If yes how I clean. I don't think it's a fan failure because I can hear the fan cut in. Advice much appreciated. Thank you.

  > Could it be clogged with dust inside (it is 5 years old)? If yes how I clean. I don't think it's a fan failure because I can hear the fan cut in
  I agree with you and the user SambadeAmigo. It seems like a simple problem of overheating and so the laptop automatically stops to prevent the equipment from damage

  I assume that your laptop can be enabled again after being allowed to cool. It is a common question if the cooling modules may not work properly because of the dust and debris.
  As suggested, it would be possible to remove dust using the can of compressed air.
  It should work.

  See you soon

  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

• 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.

  Hi - I need a new hard drive for my satellite pro 6100, MK4019GAX part number. I have searched online but have drawn a blank. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Roy

  All devices, you can order from the Toshiba service partner in your country.
  As far as I know the MK4019GAX is a 40 GB ATA-100 HARD drive.
  You can also use an another 2.5 40 GB HDD.

• Satellite Pro 6100 - battery acting very strange.

  As mentioned in the title, my laptop battery is very strange.

  The symptoms are:

  When the battery is flat after only 7-10 minutes he turns not, however if the battery is removed and placed in the laptop, the laptop will start as it has never happened.
  Not only that, but the bonus after the first can indefinitely until this that loaded into an OS and immediately after starting start the laptop stops due to an apparent lack of power, when there is power always, enough to do the same thing again. Also, the battery can still start even after being just in a freezer.

  This reacondioned back to normal battery or is this safe to use battery?
  Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  I guess that your battery is old like machines of this Satellite Pro 6100 and maybe it can't be charged more. In this case, your battery should be replaced.

  But even if the battery is faulty, you should be able to use the device connected to the power adapter.
  So even if the battery is removed, you could power the unit with the mains.

• Signal not detected on Satellite Pro 6100 wireless

  I have two laptops Satellite Pro 6100, two of them are configured to automatically connect to our local wireless router which they both started.
  A computer is used by myself by my wife; bookmarks, email accounts and so on are different on every computer/hard drive.

  I have problems with one of the computers (mine) - the usual problem with multispindle connectors on the video boards and feeding, then I tried to use "his" computer with 'ma' machine's hard drive.

  His machine does not recognize our LAN with my hard drive installed. He came up with a new network found, but not a wireless network. Also, with this machine and my hard drive installed, can't the machine to search for wireless LANs, the icon does not appear. The switch is turned on for wireless signals and it works very well with his hard drive in it. The network is protected, and the two machines have the same id in them for connection which work fine in the original engine.

  I don't really understand this condition. Something in the bios? Something on my hard drive that is not recognized by the computer? the wrong phase of the Moon?
  Suggestions how to trouble shoot and fix this?

  Both machines are XP Pro on them, latest updates.

  Hello

  Also AFAIK, Satellite Pro 6100 was equipped with different Wlan cards so if use different HDD with different driver then the Wlan card could not be detected by Windows XP.

  Check if the wireless adapter is listed in the Device Manager and recognized correctly.
