Satellite Pro A100 spontaneous wake up from hibernation or standby

Hello world

Since a few days my Satellite Pro A100 automatically wake up from hibernation mode
(and last night mode ensures too)

I don't have any in features (such as LAN or USB) wake up, as far as I know, that these features are not yet present in my current BIOS version (1.50).

The wake-up generally occurs with peripheral No. or LAN cables connected.

I used the hibernation mode without any problems for over two years on this laptop.
So I think that it is a hardware problem, for example something related to the power button or the close button of cover.

Is it possible to completely disable the close lid button? PowerSaver to disable for example l ' hibernation on the cover, but I don't seem to be able to turn OFF the alarm on the LID.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions or comments

Hello!

Well, in your case, I would try first to update the BIOS. You can find it on the Toshiba site:

If it doesn t work, please contact an authorized service provider. Technicians you can check laptop because then it looks like a LID switch problem.

Good bye

    You can also contact your local Distributor and check with him. They also have enough experience. On this path, it is not easy to tell exactly what is happening.

    Is the unit preloaded with recovery media or with your own operating system?

  • Re: Satellite Pro 6000 - will not be from hibernation

    I allowed my Sat Pro 6000 to run out of battery at the weekend so I was working on it and it went into hibernation, now I can't get the screen to wake up again. When I Plug and switch on the power led lights up, but the driven system is not. If I leave the power for about 10 minutes, the fan turns on and then turns off again.

    I tried to disconnect the battery cable and the power and left these disconnected from the day to the next, but this did not help. I removed the hard drive and tried in another 6000 and it works fine.

    Everyone knows about this problem?

    Hello

    It seems more like a hardware problem as a problem of Hibernate (software).
    I think there is something wrong with the power of electronic power supply on the motherboard and so the machine doesn't wake up or start impossible.

    I think it will be not easy to fix this problem yourself.
    Therefore an ASP help would be needed I put t see any other possibility.

  • Satellite U300 doesn't wake up from hibernation mode

    Hello

    I was wondering if someone can help me,

    I have problems with my brand-new Satellite U300.
    When it comes into sleep/hibernation mode I can't have to reactivate.

    The power led remains blue. In the order of UDE the laptop I have to turn the power off completely and then re-boot.

    How can I stop this from happening?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I think you should try to update the BIOS.
    On the European driver Toshiba page, you will find compatible drivers and BIOS.
    Then first try to update BIOS and then check if it helps.

  • Boot from USB on Satellite Pro A100

    Hi, I own a satellite pro A100 computer laptop. I tested a live distribution of linux which is bootable from a usb key. When I set the bios to boot from removable devices with my inserted bootable usb key does not start it and comes back to my installation disk hard windows. Is this 1 / a problem with my key/OS or 2 / satellite pro does not boot from USB as a removable device or 3 / require special strikes as for the CDROM?

    TIA

    Hello

    I m not 100% agree with Tobi. As far as I know it s only in a position to initiate the device USB FDD (diskette).
    In addition, you can start form the optical devices and network (LAN) HARD-primary drive

  • 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.

  • Satellite Pro A100 support Micro SD card?

    Hello.

    I have a Satellite Pro A100 (model PSAAPE - OOTOOKEN).
    It has a card on the front slot and the manual says "this slot allows you to easily transfer data from devices such as PDA and digital camera that uses flash memory (SD/MS/MS Pro/MMC/memory cards xD).

    I want to buy a Micro SD (microSDHC) memory card for use with a tablet PC, I intend to buy.

    My question is, if I insert the Micro SD (microSDHC) card in a SD adapter and insert it into the slot of laptops, laptop will accept for read/write operations?

    I was wondering if I can get away with having one type of card for laptops and tablet, rather than a microSDHC for the tab and a SD card for the laptop.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    The user manual provides information on the supported cards.

    Supported are:
    8 MB to 2 GB SD card
    MMC (multimedia) card 8 MB to 1 GB
    8 MB to 256 MB card MS (memory stick)
    MS (MemoryStick) Pro 256 MB to 2 GB
    16 MB to 1 GB xD memory card

    > My question is, if I insert the Micro SD (microSDHC) card in a SD adapter and insert it into the slot of laptops, laptop will accept for read/write operations?

    Since supports up to 2 GB card SD card reader, you should be able to use the microSDHC in relation to a SD card adapter.

  • Satellite Pro A100 - can I exchange the CPU?

    Hello world

    I have a Satellite Pro A100-198 with a core duo processor. I would like to replace the processor of a Satellite Pro A100 830, which is Core2Duo in the Pro A100-198. They both have the same chipset-expected-they be any problem with that? This would increase the clock speed of 1.66 GHz to 2.0 GHz. They all have two Intel 945 PM Express chipset.

    I just upgraded from XP to Windows 7 32 bit and the performance score is 3.4. My BIOS version is 1.9 and I see there is an upgrade to win all the version 6, but I can't find the BIOS version history - it is better to upgrade. For the moment, I'll see if there are problems.

    Thanks in advance Mick

    Hi Mick,

    As far as I know the two books belongs to the PSAACE series. Can you confirm this? You can find this information on the underside of the laptop.

    Normally if the books belong to the same series, it should be possible to exchange the CPU. They use the same hardware, so you can exchange.

    But don t forget this isn't supported CPU upgrade. If you have the warranty you will lose it. Other s CPU are pre-tested not on your laptop.

  • Satellite Pro A100 - after installing XP I can't work

    Hello

    I reformatted the satellite Pro A100 PSAA3E and Windows XP SP3.

    I'm not all the sounds to work on the laptop.
    I tried to uninstall and reinstall the drivers from the Toshiba site, but no luck.

    Any ideas how I can get this problem resolved?

    Thanks in advance.

    Tim

    Hello

    You have installed a sound driver? You can download it on the Toshiba page:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers

    The SP3 for XP contains two important fixes for audio cards high definition. SP3 must be installed first and then the audio driver, otherwise it won't work. So maybe reinstalling the audio driver might also solve this problem.

    In addition, you must use the forum search. You will find a sufficient number of threads on this problem! ;)

  • Satellite Pro A100: How to get updates for driver for ATI Radeon Mobility X 1400

    Hello

    I am aware that the driver for my on-board graphics card is outdated.
    When I download a updated from ATI driver and try to install, it tells me that I can't install the update the system there and contact Toshiba for the updates.

    Please can someone tell how can I get a driver updates for this card on my Satellite Pro A100 series?

    Concerning

    Macca.

    Hello

    You can not install drivers ATI ATI site because these drivers are not designed and certified for Toshiba laptops.
    These drivers can affect the functionality of notebooks and in worst cases could overheat your GPU

    * So if you want to use these drivers, you can do it but only at your own risk! *

    You can install this driver in Device Manager;
    You must use the Advanced installation procedure and you will have to indicate where the graphic driver files were stored on the HARD drive

  • Satellite Pro A100 becomes warm while playing a game

    I had a problem for some time with the Satellite Pro A100 when I play games.

    I'm glitchy spells during the game, sometimes with the fan runs much and the laptop is very hot.

    Is there something I can do?

    Hello

    As you've probably experienced peripheral internally as CPU and GPU have to work with the best performance all in game. This leads to higher heat dissipation.
    If fans and the internal vents are clogged then the CPU and the GPU may not be cooled properly and may lead to overheating

    What can you do? You can ensure that your vents are free of dust and debris, and that air can circulate properly.
    I would recommend so clean the fans with a jet of compressed air. These aerosols can be ordered from dealers different computer/laptop.

    In addition, don t use the laptop in the bet, couch or on the knees because the cooling fans would be stuck and this would lead to a higher temperature.

    Good bye
