Satellite Pro A120 - broken power adapter

• Satellite Pro A120 - no power supply the AC adapter

  Hello

  I recently had some problems with powering the my Satellite PRO A120. Initially I was not getting any power to the laptop of my adapter. I bought a new card on ebay that seems to have solved the problem as my laptop turned on once more, even if I could use it only for a few minutes on the stand alone mode as it would drain completely after a few minutes. After a few weeks, the adapter has stopped working. This led me to believe that my battery might be the problem that caused the adapter switch defective.

  I then bought a battery of reco and tried to see how long he would stay on without the adapter - even once the laptop only lasted a few minutes before I die

  I can only use my laptop with a power adapter borrowed right now. The battery is the cause or is there an underlying problem with memory or the motherboard?

  It will be expensive to fix or should I try to buy a battery and the original power cord and see if it works

  Your opinions and comments would be greatly appreciated.

  > After a few weeks, the adapter has stopped working. This led me to believe that my battery might be the problem that caused the adapter switch defective.

  It is a nonsense. The battery does not affect the power adapter!
  The battery loses own performance during use of the laptop and sooner or later, the battery will discharge.
  This is nothing unusual happens to all batteries

  In your case, it could be a defective battery and AC adapter malfunction
  It is very rare that the two parties would begin to malfunction at the same time, but it possible s

  However, in my view the laptop must be tested using the new battery and AC adapter.

• Satellite Pro C660-16F: power adapter that is compatible

  Hi all

  I recently lost the charger of my Toshiba Satellite Pro C660-16F.

  It provides the output DC 19V - 3, 42A

  My father also has a Toshiba Satellite, model A300 1RF

  Supplies of its DC 19V - 4, 74A Chargers

  I don't know if I can use the charger of my father for my computer, like I don't know
  If it is just the current or excessive current it can cause damage.

  Can someone give me the answer to that?, thank you very much in advance!

  Hello

  You can use another adapter 19V.
  The value of the Volt is very important. You can ONLY use the power adapter that supports the 19V
  The ampere is too important, but it may be a little different.

  Your original adapter supports 3.42 Ampère and other 4.74. It's a little higher but not really relevant.

• Satellite Pro L300: Your power adapter also do this?

  When I move my laptop to an outlet AC (alternating current) I do this, by Manuel Toshiba:

  1. connect the adapter to the laptop

  2. plug the adapter cable ca outlet

  The plug is in my hand and when I insert it in making that a spark is generated and a sounding snap sound.

  Is this normal?

  Hi Michael

  This certainly isn't normal behavior of AC adapter!
  I imagine that a cable is broken, and this is why you hear a strange noise

  I recommend you contact the ASP (certified partner) in your country as soon as possible.
  Guys should check the power adapter and should replace if necessary!

• Satellite Pro A120 broken and battery power problems

  Hello

  I have an A120 with XP pro on it, now it is around the age of 11 months. The other day that the power failed, the wire of the adapter came loose and short circuit blowing power. Please can someone tell me how I can contact toshiba to get news that the laptop is still under warnety, I can't find a phone or e-mail contact anyhere.

  Also, I noticed that the battery life has decreased dramatically, I used to get 3.5 to 4 hours on full battery, now I get about 1.3 hours, which seems unacceptable to me. The laoptop is under the same constraints of cpu power, as it was when I brought it is not that I use also the right of the battery until it is dead and do not supply current when the battery is fully charged.

  Thank you

• Satellite Pro A120 - DC-in is flashing orange, why?

  My Satellite Pro A120 DC - in flashes orange once I plugged my universal charger.
  I read my user manual. It is said it can be caused by an abnormal voltage or a power problem but I don't know if my charger is the one bringing or there is a power problem.

  The voltage is correct and I tried to plug in charger everywhere but still DC-flashes orange. In fact, I can t use my laptop when the charger is unplugged because its battery lows down so I can t use my laptop at all when he can load t.

  It makes me think that maybe the battery is the problem. In any case, what is the problem at the start of DC-in flashing orange.

  Please help me what to do. Thank you

  Hi jane18.

  > once I plugged my universal charger.
  And what happens if you use the AC/DC to original Toshiba adapter that came with your laptop?

• Satellite Pro A120 does not turn on - blinking green

  Hi people anyone can help?

  I have a Satellite Pro A120, which is not used for a long time,
  When I plug in and turn on I get nothing except the lights on the front of the laptop, green power telling me light the d/c plug is plugged in,
  loading light but the power of the light on the front of the battery flashes green twice, then amber once and the fan runs but nothing else at all.

  Could someone tell me wots wrong and how to fix it please?

  Hello

  Indicator of DC IN ((deuxieme left) lights green when the power adapter DC voltage.
  If the adapters output voltage is abnormal or if power outages, this indicator flashes orange.

  ((Troisième de gauche), the power led lights green when the computer is turned on. If you select the "sleep mode" indicator flashes (a second to two seconds) while the computer shuts down.

  If you notice other behaviors of indicator, then it means that something might be wrong on the motherboard. It is not possible to say what could be the problem here, but first, you should check out the bars of memory. Try to turn on the device using a single module.
  If this is not enough, then a malfunction of the motherboard would be possible.

• Satellite Pro A120 - battery not found

  Hello

  Technical details: I have a Satellite Pro A120, purchased about four years, running MS Vista. A year ago I noticed my battery has been virtually exhausted and bought a new battery (this one, to be exact: [http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0028NJAL2]). Since last year it worked very well and I have no reason to suspect that the battery itself might have a problem. Most of the time, I have the laptop plugged in, in any case.

  However, recently (last few weeks, I think) I started to have occasional problems when all of a sudden I am notified that the battery can not be found - or rather, there is no actual notification, but the power icon in the changes of system tray with a small red on it X, and then the computer hangs. The touchpad still works and I can move the pointer on the screen, but absolutely nothing else says and there is no way out next to a hard reboot. Sometimes, if I catch the icon change from time to time and unplug the power cord (force the computer running on battery), it actually corrects issues. Not always, though.

  Attempts to seek similar problem descriptions online were not very useful; most of the time, the description does not exactly fit my situation or the Seraph blames the battery or the operating system (which, in my case, to be as the wrong answers, since I said the battery generally works well, and I had the same OS from the start). Also a search of these forums did not have no useful result. I'll call my go - to computer store and see if their engineers have all the answers or if it's just the time to take the old horse pasture and find a new filly, but thought that perhaps the good people on this forum may be able to offer advice (additional).

  Thanks in advance,
  Yael

  I think that no one will be able to tell what's wrong exactly; I think it is s battery issue but of course, no one can say it it s battery maybe motherboard or just a software problem. OPERATING SYSTEM.

  Usually, the software should not affect the functionality of the battery and I think that it s more material associated.
  The laptop is a little old and the battery seems to be old too so I think that the battery needs to be checked first

• Satellite Pro A120 - LCD black screen - Fine on external monitor - fine

  Hi, I have a headache with a Toshiba Satellite Pro A120 mojor. The screen began to move to the blackout at random times and happens more and more. It is not serious if W
  Jayindows has loaded or if I enter the bios, boot from the CD or leave it sitting waiting for me to select a boot device. More often than otherwise, it becomes black, but you can still see what needs to be on the screen, it is simply not at all turned to see clearly. The laptop itself still works very well because it works on an external monitor and makes the system beeps, cd turns etc.
  Have you tried the following:
  Setting of various parameters in the graphics properties and in the bios but makes no difference.
  It also becomes active again if I press FN + F5 to swap monitors but turns off after a few seconds.
  It is not overheating as it's been all night and still sometimes happens when starting Cold Stone.
  I tried to start with / without battery - no difference.
  I tried to start without the disk HARD - no difference.
  I tried to remove the battery by pressing power for 60 seconds, then add the battery and new starter - no difference in power.
  I could have sworn it is the inverter, but it does the same thing with an inverter I know works! do not think that it may be graphic because it works on an external monitor and turn off.
  I'm out of ideas and looking for a genius to fix it for me please!
  See you soon

  Hey Buddy,

  > It turns on but not at all to see clear
  This would mean that the FL inverter is faulty the FL inverter of the internal LCD display controls the backlight of the screen and if the isn t working FL inverter you can see a picture, but very very dark.

  It would be a logical explanation for your problem, because there must be something wrong with the laptop LCD if an external monitor is working properly. Also if it happens in the BIOS the problem is not software.

  In your case I contact an authorized service provider and ask the guys for help. They can check your laptop and this should be done. Here, we can only speculate and discuss the different possibilities because it s just a user forum. EPA has professional diagnostic tools and can order all Toshiba spare parts.

  Good luck! :)
