Satellite Pro A10: CD rip procedure takes for a long time.

Toshiba Satellite Pro A10... Tried to rip a CD on my computer. Yesterday, the process was real quick as 10 minutes per cd. Today is a time frustrating per cd!

Everyone thinks that the hard drive was missing? Or I'm just something incredibly stupid? Whatever it is, something is wrong!

  • Office jet pro 8610: printhead issue when idle for a long time

    I live half the year in Florida and the other half in North Carolina. I have the same printer model in both places. On the advice of technical support from HP, I remove the ink cartridges and put them in a bag before I left for the season. I just returned to my house from the North and had a problem with the printer/ink. It was resolved by HP by sending me a new print head, because this printer is still under warranty. But the next time it won't. I try to learn if there is a better way to deal with the issue of a printer sitting inactive for six months. Must I also drop and the bag to the top of the print head? Should I just take the cartridges back with me, so they will be used frequently? Is there a reason to think about letting the printhead to sit empty for months would cause a problem? ANY advice would be welcome, because I've always had problems upon returning to a unused printer. TIA!

    Hey @sls2,

    I see that you are worried about having your printhead replaced on your e-all-in-one Officejet 8610 printers if they have any questions after you have not used for several months. I can answer for you.

    First of all, if the printer is no longer under warranty, they print head would not be replaced. It is a replaceable part, however you must buy the HP printhead if cartridges does not solve your problems. Here are some things that can be done:

    Let the printers power when they are not in use. If printers are turned on, the printers can do the maintenance to keep the cartridges and ink system to dry more quickly. This can save your print heads. Of course, this does not work if there is no power when you are away.

    Buy an extended warranty for printers. You can contact the HP Support by clicking here and filling out the form below and they can provide you with options of extended warranties and treat everything immediately. Please note that they will need serial number of the printer to record it all for you. You can also buy a warranty by visiting HP Shopping. When you follow this path, you will need to call the number included in the package of warranty and they will need serial number of the printer.  Whatever it is, the printer should work when you buy the warranty.

    Buy a HP Laserjet Printer. LaserJet printers use toner, which is a dry power rather than the wet ink. These printers may be left in storage for years, opened again and can always print. This would put an end to any concerns about the cartridges or the print heads. The disadvantages of these printers is that, unless you use a single black printer, the cost per page is superior for printing from the Officejet 8610. This path would make printing very expensive photographs, so this is something to be aware of the fi.

    Buy a printer with a system of two-ink cartridge. HP printers with two ink cartridge systems have print heads integrated cartridges instead of the printer. This means that if the cartridge doesn't work over the cartridge can be replaced instead.

    The downside of this is that your average cost per page to print would increase. You can compensate for this by subscribing to the printer for instant ink program and cancel your subscription until you change your location. You can learn more about the program by clicking on this link.

  • 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).

    Hello

    I do not understand why you changed the operating system. I think XP Prof is the best version of Windows XP.

    Anyway, you can find all the necessary drivers on the utility CD & tools and programs. Drivers for XP Home and teacher are the same. On the CD drivers and programs are listed in the order. Follow this order during installation to avoid conflicts. And always reboot the system if necessary.

    Good bye

  • 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.

    As far as I know, that you can also use this battery.

  • Question about BIOS for Satellite Pro A10 files

    Hello

    I have Toshiba Satellite Pro A10 and later yesterday, he won't, he past the TOSHIBA start screen and then black with a flashing cursor, it didn't leave me in advanced settings or the settings of the BIOS, a friend told me I need to Flash BIOS, I came across the site and found only a BIOS update and management told me to use the floppy drive , he said when I unzip the file I get an .exe file which I opened and it will give me three files, one for the CD ROM, one for the floppy drive and the third I don't remember, but it didn't happen, when I unzipped the files in a temporary folder, but I never had the files.

    I think I had to have it on my own laptop, and then it would be extracted properly, because my laptop does not work I can't do and even if I put the files on a disk, they are too big.

    Then...

    Where can I get the files from the BIOS that I can put on a floppy disk and then I can boot from that disk and it will fix the BIOS?

    Thank you

    Hello

    OK, follow these steps:

    Burn the file bios to CD on a CD, boot from it and update your bios. It's a simple and easy way. I Don t understand why it shouldn´t work, given that I ve updated my bios in the same way. I burned the image to CD and booted from this CD.

    Please answer perhaps you just made a mistake when you think to (I sometimes do too much, not often, but it happens..)  :)

  • Upgrade CPU on Satellite Pro A10

    Hello

    I have a PSA15E A10-IN running a celeron 2.0 chip. Anyone know if it is possible to upgrade the processor and if what chips it would take? Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    In most cases, the upgrade of the CPU is not possible because of the BIOS and chipset restrictions.
    But sometimes it is possible to use a different CPU, which is supported by the chipset.
    I have no idea what chipset supports your laptop, but you can check this in the Device Manager or you could install some hardware diagnostic such as Sisoft SANDRA or Everest Home Edition software.

    Then, you can view properties chipset Intel ARK on page for a list of compatible processors.

    However, Satellite Pro A10 is very old and I doubt its value to upgrade the processor because you won't see a great performance.

  • Satellite Pro A10 HDD

    or

    I tried some hard disk controllers, but they are unable to get anywhere, because they cannot access the drive. Anyone know of any solution to this, or if not, where would be the best place for replacement because my warranty has run out.

    Any help appreciated,

    Thank you

    Hi John,.

    Unfortunately, it seems that if your HARD drive has crashed. The message of your BIOS is normally what you see if the PC cannot detect any bootable devices. Usually, it is a bootable HARD drive.

    Assuming you have the Toshiba Recovery CD you could try to restore your existing system to your HDD (it will automatically reformat the hard disk first), but you might find although it will simply fail restore due to the failure of the drive.

    Your next option is to replace the HARD drive. You can do it yourself very easily, or you may prefer to take the laptop to a Service Agent for them to do. Note that you still need to rebuild your system from the recovery CD according to your choice.

    Given that your device has a 20 GB HARD drive standard you could take this opportunity to install a larger capacity drive.
