Satellite Pro A100 and load problems

Hello everyone. New Member here.

Got a huge problem with my laptop. I have a satellite pro A100-830. Part number: PSAACE-00W002EN. About 2 years ago

I can run on the current system. But it will not work on battery. I just bought a new battery and it shows on the computer.
I get indications are:

battery charge amber lit.
Light on power
Power meter indicates the battery charge. I connected new battery and it shows 47% and now 3 hours later its still 47%
If I unplug the power to the computer shuts down and will not work on battery.

the AC light seems to be slightly duller than the one next to him, if that makes sense.

Ive tried updating the BIOS etc but I'm ideas if im honest as im not a computer pro. I searched the internet but I can't find an answer

Huge thanks in advance

Stand by.
We need more explanation here.

You have the same problem with the battery and you have bought one new in the hope that everything will be OK?
Have you noticed the same problem with the battery?
You bought original Toshiba battery?

In my view BIOS update won't help you much. I think electronic power is responsible for this BIOS update ahs no influence on this.

  • Satellite Pro 4270 and network problems

    I just got a laptop, Toshiba Satellite Pro 4270... I installed win 98 on it and it works beautifully.

    But then I added LAN PCMCIA card in computer and wanted to do some sufring. I encountered a problem.

    In the next devices, win98 reports error handler:
    The NDIS. VXD, NTKERN. VXD or Chargers device for this device could not load the device driver. (Code 2).

    The card is 3Com Fe575C and I downloaded the latest drivers from www.3Com.com/warranty, but that did not help. I also ran regclean and reinstalled the card after that. Always the same fault. With my own laptop (win2k pro), the card works perfectly with no additional drivers, so the map itself is not defective.

    In addition, the Win98 find PCI card when starting, but I have no driver for that... Where can I get that? It does not specify which card that is...

    Hello

    I guess it is Win 98 Second Edition You are using on the 4270.
    Please go to driver download site and download the INF-update to the PC Card controller. I think this should solve your problem.

    While you are at it download the other drivers you need more.

  • Satellite Pro M70 and chariging problems

    Hello everyone,

    I wonder if anyone can help me with my problem, my Satellite Pro M70 sometimes does not load when I put the charger into the socket, if I out of the power supply and leave it for 2 days I have costs for a period of time up to 20 hours, and then did the same thing.

    I tried to turn it on without the battery, to check whether the problem is with him, but he turns. So this led me to believe the problem isn t the battery.

    Can anyone help?

    > have tried to turn it on without the battery, to check if the problem is with him, but it won't turn
    You mean the power of t n for laptop up connected to the sector, but without battery plugged in?

    Hmmm, to me this looks like a bit of a problem with AC adapter or an electrical problem of power offers the Board of Directors. As you probably knew that, it is really difficult to provide suggestions without touching the laptop.

    First of all, you can check if the machine uses latest BIOS. If this isn't the case, update the BIOS.
    Check if the laptop would go also without battery and only connected to the network.

    If this does not work, then the adapter should be verified.
    If the AC adapter is ok, then, the motherboard must be verified

  • Satellite Pro A100 with Modem USB internet connection problems

    Hi all

    I'm looking for some help with a problem. I am struggling to solve. I have a Satellite Pro A100 and sometimes use it with a speedtouch 330 what ASDL USB connected modem, but whenever I use this at some point that I seem to lose connectivity, the Explorer does not display the pages and other applications stop working, even if I do not seem physically the connection loose. It is often the only to get back on the net to restart and start over.

    The modem doesn't seem to be the problem as it works very well with my desktop and the laptop works very well when it is connected through wireless and idea and solution would be greatly appreciated.

  • Satellite Pro A100/P100 - compatibility touchpad

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A100 and I saw pictures and videos on the internet of people have these keyboards LCD that illuminate blue and have shortcuts but only touchpads I can find like that correspond to the P100 and ino models some of the parties each other as I was ve documented but I can t can't find if the touchpads do or not but I think that s what other people I saw someone do any ideas?

    Thank you to

    Hello

    The two models of laptops are old enough, is not easy to find some useful information on this subject. I remember that some P100/A100 and A200/P200 / X 200 models were offered with these keyboards.

    I m not a technician but I think these keyboards with keys have two cables must be connected to the motherboard and keys touchpad without buttons have a flat cable only.
    (I also believe that models with and without this touchpad have different numbers) model numbers) so it is possible that they have different mothers.

    What you need is a professional help with this. I mean, if possible, try to contact nearest Toshiba authorized maintainer and ask for help. They have access to the database of Toshiba and can check the specification for your laptop model but also data base for all hardware components of portable.

    They may be able to help you with this.

  • Satellite Pro A100 is not recognized any amount of RAM

    I have a Satellite Pro A100 and I just bought 1 GB of additional memory. There are two locations, each with a capacity of 1 GB.
    When I put the new memory into the slot and the old 512 MB original memory in slot B and the computer says it is 1 GB.

    I have them two-way round so that the 512 MB is has the 1 GB in B. Now the computer says that there is 512 MB.
    Is there anything I can do to work B slot? I have the latest version of the BIOS update.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    > original 512K of Ram also works in A slot, but not in the housing B.
    This looks like your slot B is defective, mate :(

    I think that, in this case, you can't. You can swap the card mother but that s all.

    Hello

    First you should check if the WiFi network card status in Device Manager.
    You can see a Wlan card?

    If you n t see the Wlan card listed in the network adapters, it would mean the failure of the driver installation WiFi card or you have used is not compatible Wlan driver!

  • Satellite Pro A100 - recovery mode sleep with keyboard or media remote

    Hi guys

    I have devoted my Satellite Pro A100 to be a media center which is located under the TV and can play media network and DVD etc..
    It is using Vista.

    I want to set up, is that the lid is closed 24/7 365 days and when I want to use I just press "SLEEP" or power button on the remote control or the keyboard and it fires up ready for action.

    POINT TO THE NOTE. I did it successfully with my OLD Tecra M3. However, was too slow for vista and media center

    However, I put the power settings I want etc, close the cover nothing and activated standby hybrid (favorite sleep).

    Now I CAN put it to sleep with the remote control or the multimedia keyboard. BUT I can wake up?... NO!. I thought about everything... went to the Device Manager and made sure that all the options for the remote control and keyboard and USB receiver are set to WAKE FROM SLEEP. The only thing to wake up it is the power button - which defeats the purpose of it sitting there like a dvd player.

    awake when the remote control and keyboard function very well - I made sure that the batteries are charged.
    I have the latest version of the BIOS and speaking of BIOS there is no option power S3 I noticed, but then there were not on the M3 and it worked very well in terms of sleep and wake up with the IR.

    I come to the forum because even though I know that some older systems will not work with vista - IF the M3 will work - I'm sure that the A100 twice as new and powerful.

    Has anyone had this before - that I missed it must look me in the face.

    Thanks in advance.

    PS Also lately the touchpad played upward IE left and right clickers Exchange feature so one second your work as normal the next minute you click left and right clikc menu appears. Reset the synaptic reinstalled - rebuilt - BIOS - no difference.

    When I worked in management for a large company when it started happening was not good news - it's a bad news?

    Hello

    I m not very well why it doesn t on your Satellite Pro A100 and why it works on M3.
    But the fact is that the Satellite Pro A100 doesn t support the FIR (Fast InfraRed) port and the
    Tecra M3 supports the fast infrared port.

    Maybe this could be the reason why you can not activate the laptop using the infrared remote control multimedia.

  • Strange problem with RAM on Satellite Pro A100

    I have a Satellite Pro A100 (not sure which...)
    It came with 2x256mb RAM, which are mounted. I noticed my laptop slow, so I checked what he says on the properties of the workstation - who said RAM 192Mo...

    Any idea what's going on?
    I had a peek inside, both are mounted securely, while the right push entirely? There is a small gap (about 1 / 2mm) so that is the little nick and real editing. -What is the cause? Or it's maybe faulty?

    Please help me!
    Thanks in advance,

    Diana

    According to the description of your problem, I guess one of the memory modules is not recognized by the system and the specified result 192 MB of Ram only tell me that your laptop has shared graphics memory card.

    Satellite Pro A100 is fairly new to laptop and, in my opinion, you should contact service. The guarantee must be valid and if everything is defective it will be replaced free of charge.

    If possible, tell us what Satellite Pro, you have exactly. This info you can find on the lower side of your laptop.

  • Satellite Pro A100 PSAASE: error Power Saver and LAN? After downgrade to XP

    Hello
    I have a toshiba satellite pro A100-psaase!
    I could not find this model on the toshiba site, so I chose the A100-psaas software.

    The laptop came with windows vista. I have it downgraded to windows xp, has chosen the psaas model so that I can download the drivers.

    I have 2 problems: the first is the eve of power software, it does not work. Start windows every time I get an error in the energy saver. I can not uninstall.

    My second problem is, that a windows pop who found a network controller and I can't find any software or driver for it. So in Device Manager, an exclamation point on the icon of the network controller.

    The funny thing is that I have internet and all.
    I can't find a solution to these two problems
    Thanks again

    Hello

    You have chosen the correct unit. The satellite Pro A100 PSAASE is the same model as PSAAS.
    I put t know why the power gain error appears, but for most of these errors occur because the tools and utilities have been installed in the wrong order!
    Seems that the installation instruction has been placed on the page of the driver Tosh! Read and follow the installation guide lines! Proper installation is important and necessary.

    The LAN drivers are also published on the page! There are 2 different versions. Try them both!
    The laptop supports a Lan Intel Ekron-R 82562GZ chip. Compatible drivers, you can also find on the Intel page!

    Good day

  • S-video on Satellite Pro A100 problem

    Hi, I recently bought a new satellite pro a100 with XP pre-installed-one of my main reasons to choose this as the price was the built-in s-video connector so I can get my screen up on my tv. However, I have not yet got it working and you'd be grateful for all the assistance.

    It is connected to my TV via a s-video cable, connected to an s-video/SCART adapter to work. Nothing is display on the screen and in the ATI displays the setting, control panel is the only option that is imparted to me. The other 2, including television are grayed out.

    Maybe something needs to be configured, but I have not found information of any use yet.

    Thank you

    Marcus

    Hello

    As far as I know avoid any problems if you want to connect the laptop to the TV. After connecting, please use the FN + F5 key combination and get on TV.

    It can happen that picture will be black and white, but it is because S-video in on television port is not enabled.

    > During a game for half an hour, the screen darkens and a second view later, I get a blue screen.
    Well, my first thought is that this problem is related to the graphics driver.
    I mean it could be a software problem.
    But I know that a BSOD can also occur if the graphics card chip began to malfunction.
    In your case I m not sure what could cause this problem. But to play a game, that the GPU is running with a maximum yield and produce a lot of heat. If the temperature rises to a higher level the GPU can also cause a BSOD.

    Anyway, first of all, you must check if the graphics card driver update could solve this problem.
    Maybe you could use a driver from other websites but please note that this is ONLY possible at your peril!
