• Satellite Pro A10 battery won't hold a charge

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro A10. I used it for a few years on AC power only. I tried to use it on battery, but I don't have that about 5 minutes before switching to standby mode. She descends slowly from 100 percent to about 96 percent then powers. When I plug directly support I have only 3% of the power.

  I thought if I totaled the battery, so I bought a new, but the same thing happens.

  Do you think that my new battery is duff too?
  I am running the latest version of the bios (1.30).

• 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.

• Satellite Pro A10: battery question

  Hello

  Is it true that SAT10 Pro can be recharged 24/7 even though the battery is fully charged. My manager insists to keep me on the sector all the day becuause there lithium-ion battery. Wouldn't this overload the lattery and decrease the life / the effectiveness of it.

  Thanks in advance for any response

  Hi Isabelle,.

  The normal recommendation is to remove the battery when the laptop is connected to AC power. However, the modern cell phones (and batteries) use electronic sophisticated enough to optimize the performance of reloading and if generally there's been little or no harm if the battery is left in place while the captain is connected.

  My own SA30 is almost always running on AC power with a battery installed, and after 2 years as this battery will always lead the laptop for up to 2 hours what I do regularly just to discharge/recharge it.

  As long as the battery is discharged periodically, then he should suffer no harm.

  Kind regards

• Battery discharged very quickly with the new update 9.3.2

  I realize that with the new iOS 9.3.2 battery life comes part-time as precedent.

  I used the iPhone as always, on my work, and there is a huge difference for a capacity lower hours!

• Satellite Pro A10 battery replacement?

  Hi all

  I get the message "Critical autonomy" on my laptop for a while now. Now, I want to replace the battery because I killed the other: (.) However I've not done this before. How can I change the battery? Y at - it web sites you know that illustrates the process. Any help is appreciated. Thank you

  Hello

  In my opinion in this case, it of not necessary to replace the battery.
  I guess you have worked only with battery and this message appears if the battery is empty and if the battery charge is necessary.
  In this case, you must connect the power adapter and charge the battery.

  PS: you can also try to change the alarm level of the battery at the lower level.

• How to recalibrate battery on Satellite Pro A10?

  The battery that came with my laptop has begun behaving oddly a couple of months (it's almost two years, Satellite Pro A10). She arrive at about 50% and then immediately fall to about 2 percent. After setting up with this for a few months, I finally bit the bullet and bought a new battery (charge not trivial, I might add). The new battery behaves exactly the same way. Someone has any advice on how to recalibrate battery PC Toshiba laptop, or verify that the problem is with the system and not the battery itself?

  Hi Richard,

  Check in options power management Toshiba you have the right setting for your type of battery. In my opinion, there are different settings for long battery duration, high power batteries, etc..

  If the problem persists, then I recommend re-installing the power management utility to make sure that it is not at fault, and if the problem persists, then there may be a problem with the power system of your laptop, in which case you will need to return to an authorized Service Agent Toshiba.

  Good luck

• Replacement battery for Satellite Pro A10

  Hello
  I'm trying to find a replacement battery for Satellite Pro A10, PA3284U-1BRS, 10.8 v original battery, 3600 MAH. A couple of merchants said that it is no longer available and has been replaced by PA3285U-1BRS, the amperage is a little higher at 4400 MAH, but declared voltage is now 11.1 VOLTS. Is this normal, or are they trying to just me to pawn off the coast with something that is really not compatible with the specifications of the original part. I can't find the part for the moment available on the Toshiba site, seems to have been the only way to get a true replacement who would be sure to adapt. Battery wizards there know what would actually?

  Thank you.

• Satellite Pro A10: RTC battery is low or CMOS chesksum unstable

  I have a Satellite Pro A10.

  When I turn everything first laptop computer on I get RTC battery is low or CMOS checksum is unstable - press F1 to set date/time. When I press F1, I get a beep and it's everything that happens. I'm unable to had to set up or do anything at all with the installation program.

  I kept it plugged in for 24 hours, but still the same results. I replaced the CMOS battery with a new. But even once, I get the exact same results.

  All that happens when I press F1 and a sound signal. Is this a sign that I have probably a problem with the motherboard?

  You can access the BIOS and could try to set the default settings, and then save the settings and start again.
  If it doesn't, then it must be another reason for this message.

  My first thought was that this error pops up because the BIOS battery is empty.
  Usually such charge as described in your ad should help get rid of this message.
  But it seems that there is a more serious problem

  I m not quite sure what this could be, but the hypothesis that a motherboard could malfunction is not wrong.
  I think that a fault of mobo might this causes too.

  But in my opinion a mobile technician must check to make sure what's wrong.

• Satellite Pro A10 with XP SP2 works very slowly

  I have a Satellite Pro A10; 256 RAM with 18 GB of HARD drive. (In think it was sold as a nominal 20GB).
  It's not particularly loaded with the software, even if the HD is about 90% full and is used primarily for surfing the Internet and word processing. It runs very slowly and has been making slower and slower.

  Click on an item oin the Start Menu, for example to open IE and takes literally 10 to 20 minutes to open the window under construction very slowly... really!

  I have Norton Internet Security and Norton System Works and the different uses do not find anything wrong, they report. Speed disk to run after a month, but also the system scans for viruses.

  I'm going back to the top upgrade RAM 1024 and also believe that a BIOS update is available but do not know how this will change the performance, or not at all.

  I know there must be other things I need to do to improve the speed. It is virtually unusable at the moment.

  What tests can I do to pin point problems and then how can I fix?

  Hello

  In recent years, I've used the Norton Internet Security and I was not satisfied. The point is that it is a good security tool, but it significantly slows down the performance of the computer laptop or computer. Now, I m using the freeware antivirus software called AntiVir.

  I see your computer laptop support only 256 MB of RAM. It is certainly not sufficient to use the Win XP smoothly.
  Other reasons could be overloaded HDD.

  Due to the low value of RAM, the laptop uses the area on the HARD disk for paging. Paging is an important part of virtual memory. It allows to use the HARD drive for data that does not fit in physical RAM.

  All of these are responsible by the performance of your laptop.

  By the way; It is perhaps also a time for a new installation of the OS.

• Satellite Pro A210: Battery drains fast access

  Hello
  I have a Satellite Pro A210 news from Jan. The battery seems if discharge very quickly during normal use so I´d be interested if someone could let me know what kind of life you get from your.

  More problematic is that when the left in hibernation it drains the battery in about 36 hours, once again I´d be interested in your experiences.

  It seems to load normally so I wonder if the pc is attractive more current than it should. I spotted a wire on the basis of knowledge of Toshiba which mentioned Wake on Lan, causing similar problems recommend have disabled in bios, I checked and it is turned off.

  Any help much appreciated.

  Andy

  Hello

  generally, the battery should last about 2 hours (surfing, writing, etc.). I mean it depends of many factors such as:

  1 powersaving settings
  2. applications from running
  3 execution of application
  4. connected devices (such as USB - HDD, etc...)

  regarding the Hibernate: this is normal. What did YOU expect?
  It would also be great if you could tell me how long your machine usually in battery mode works... would be really useful ;)

  See you soon

• Satellite Pro A10 display and DVD issues

  I have a Satellite Pro A10 about 2 1/2 years and have never had a problem with him, but the other day when I tried to watch a DVD, look at a program (InterActual Player) opened as usual and then a few more seconds later the display will change in very low resolution (something like 14 colors, almost a negative and all image was massive Although I don't remember the actual numbers) and he said that I had to reboot in order to return things to normal. I tried the same DVD in Windows Media Player, as well as to try other DVDs and initially that the DVD would play in Media Player but not Interactual but now the same thing happens any DVD or player that I use.

  Also, I went on the computer this morning and got a message saying that the battery is low (although it was because I had not plugged the computer again, nothing to do with the last errors) and the computer is in standby. I plugged in the computer and you press the power button to wake the screen is very dark but visibly pixelated (I think that's the word, he had visible points, as if someone were holding a magnifying glass up to her) and got very slowly brighter until there has been a series of narrow bright stripes, like a giant pixel or a tv test screen.
  This could be a problem with the display drivers (even though I tried to update and we found since I always see a message 'Cannot find the requested string' by the icon for display in the control panel), the screen itself, or something else entirely?

  Sorry it's so long, but I thought it is best to include all the details in case it has been important. I hope someone can help!

  Hello Nicola

  As you know on this path is not easy to say what may be the problem. In my opinion, it is important to see what is happening exactly. I assume that your problem is not caused by the display driver. Try to properly test and notice where the screen is very dark.

  If this problem is repeated again and again that I recommend you backup your data and reinstall the unit with recovery media. On this path of unity will be factory configured and you can see if the problem still occurs. If so, it may be just caused by a malfunction of the equipment.

  Good luck!

• Satellite Pro A10 stops on specific opportunities

  Hello!

  I am owner of a satellite Pro A10 (PSA15E). It's hard drive stop working, the pc could not find. So I bought a new, a samsung with 160 GB, IDE, of course.

  Now when I was installing windows, in the part file copy, it just stopped. When I boot it says initialization file fails, then I guess it stops when it was to transfer this important part.

  If I run the cd again, it does not format or reinstall/repair request, it loads only some files and try to start windows and then stops.

  Now, this is where the tricky part comes in: the power led in turn, then again very fast when it stops. I do not use the battery (it is already dead too), and I use an universal AC, a give, 70W adapter. I tried formatting via a LiveCD Ubuntu, with no luck, because when I choose "Try Ubuntu" or "Install Ubuntu" it stops a little as he thought, and then when he is about to leave the menu and do something, it stops in place.

  My only guess, is that this laptop doesn't want me more :(

  I could really use some help, I just spent some 50 on a HARD drive for him and he is the only laptop that I have. I don't think that it is a question of temperature because it stops just at specific times, on some specific choices. If I just let it hang there in the menu (the Ubuntu live CD one) it is not closed. Only when I want him to go further.

  Any help/response is greatly appreciated, and if I take a little too much time to respond is because I don't have access to internet at work now.

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  Theoretically, this could be an overheating problem as Akuma wrote. Therefore, you must clean your laptop using a jet of compressed air. This could blow the dust from the cooling fans and can improve the cooling of the laptop.

  In addition, it would be interesting to know what happens if you run Toshiba Recovery disk recovery facility this work?
