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.

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 A210 restart

    Hello

    It's my first time here posting and I could really use your help. I have a satellite pro a210 and me went to answer a phone call and it ran out of power and now he turns not again. I tried to take out the battery and hold the power button to drain it and then go back to the top and holding F8, F12, told me press and hold the back key while rebooting (all tried).

    Tried with battery and battery attached but nothing worked with the power cable. It has been like that for a few months and I'm out of ideas.

    If someone had a similar problem and knows a solution that would be great.

    What happen exactly when you press the power button / stop? Is there a reaction?

  • Satellite Pro A210 periodically stop the monitor

    Hi, my computer laptop Satellite Pro A210 periodically stop his monitor. I can work now what, whether it seems no matter what I do, the monitor turns off just.
    I checked the Device Manager and there is no device showing conflict. I bought the new laptop about six weeks ago and it is very annoying that it does. Anyone had similar problems with their A210?

    I contacted Toshiba and I hope that they will be committed to fix my laptop.

    Thank you.

    This is very interesting thread because I m the owner of a Satellite A210 with dual OS (Vista and XP) and didn t notice such problem with XP or Vista.

    Of course, the screen goes black after a while but this is related to my energy saving settings. I ve set the power of my wide display settings to save power while working on the battery.

    I don't know if this could be the reason for your question, but it's certainly an option m.

    You can also try to update the BIOS and the graphics driver to check if it would help solve the problem you also.

    Good luck to you

  • Satellite Pro A210 PSAFHE: need new HARD drive compatible

    Hello

    Jealous of my relationship with my Tosh laptop - my wife - angry of stupidity, decided to slam closed
    OOPS, it no longer works.

    After cooling down - she did not apologize, BUT said she would pay for the repair.

    After investigation, I feel it may be the hard drive - I have re-installed from master disks and it worked sort of--even allowed to install aol.
    AND he then stopped loading - hearing closely it seems to be looking for the hard drive to complete the load.
    It's a Toshiba Satellite Pro A210 IB1 model PSAFHE - 00800PEN and has a Hitachi hd
    HARD DRIVE: 5K 250-160
    Model: HTS542516K9SA00 5 v DC 700mA 160 GB SATA 5400 RPM

    I can't seem to find one anywhere - tried to contact Toshiba to know what would be appropriate replacements - picking the winning lottery numbers would be easier to get through Toshiba. So I thought I would try the forums.
    In my opinion, it's the hard drive BUT as a mere mortal, I could be wrong - all advice would be appreciated.

    Please tell us what drives fit
    concerning

    Hello

    It seems that the laptop supports a HARD drive 2.5 SATA.
    As the controller SATA HDD has no limitation, all SATA 2.5 hard drives should be compatible.

    If you want, so you can choose a 250GB 2.5 SATA HDD THAT and normally it should work as part of your laptop.

  • Satellite Pro A210 PSAFHE - Windows 7 - crashes after the sleep/hibernation

    I have a PSAFHE Satellite Pro A210 running dual boot Windows XP/7
    With the help of Windows 7 - 32 or 64 - system always crashes after sleep/hibernate mode.
    This never happens with XP that sleeps and hibernates OK...
    There is no driver for this laptop on site http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU
    I like system 7 and use it on my other computers but without sleep/hibernate, I go back to XP.

    Hello

    > There is no driver for this laptop on site http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU

    Sorry, mate, but you're wrong.
    All drivers for Win 7 for Satellite Pro A210 are available on the European driver of Toshiba page that I recommend you check out once again

    Given that this question does not appear using Win XP, I can say with certainty that this has nothing to do with the material, but it s a software related issue
    I recommend updating the graphics card driver

    In addition, there is a new BIOS for Satellite Pro A210 PSAFHE it s v2.0
    Check if you are using the latest version

  • Satellite Pro A210 - keyboard and touchpad stop working after hibernation

    I installed Windows 7 (32 bit) on my Satellite Pro A210 and have a similar problem. When it starts OK but after hibernation the keyboard and touchpad stop working after 3 minutes. The only way to fix it is a re-boot of the force.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Hello

    You have installed all the drivers for your laptop? I mean especially the chipset driver.
    Check this box!

    If you have yellow exclamation points in Device Manager, you must install all the missing drivers.

    Last but not least don't forget to install all Windows 7 updates available that you can get thorugh Windows Update.

    Sorry, but that's all I can say at the moment

  • Satellite Pro A210 DVD Drive not working no-error code 39

    Hi all

    My Satellite Pro A210 dvd player does not load.
    When I looked inside, he showed an error code 39.
    I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but it still doesn't work.

    Any ideas?

    Hello

    To my knowledge, the 39 error message appears if the CD/DVD drive is not visible in my computer.
    You can try this workaround:
    Go to Device Manager and remove the drive CD/DVD from the list of devices.
    Then go to the registry (regedit) and remove upper and lower key filters:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\ Control\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    Then restart the device and test again
    I think this should help!

  • Satellite Pro A210 - recover the HARD internal disk

    Happy new year guys – love the active forum community!

    My Satellite Pro A210 dead spectacular a few months back and being out of warranty, I did my best to fix it - diagnosis I think has a faulty motherboard (No bios loading, no start-up through external boot disks/drives) and if I do regular backups, there are always a few files that get missed so connected the HARD drive to another PC to find the HARD drive died in that it is not even turn.

    Is it possible, even bother to try to change the circuit printed out the HARD drive, like-for-like, or is the circuit "listens" on the disc (even if it could lead to another Board blown) or what are my options to get the HARD drive looked at and repaired, at what price?

    Sorry if this is a stupid question

    Hi bearoon,

    This means you want to replace the Control Board on the underside of the HARD drive itself?

    Well, theoretically it of possible, but note: you can only replace it with a Board of 100% same HARD drive. If you use it from another HARD disk you can destroy the HARD drive and everything on it always makes not readable so it s sensitive technique.
    So before of you exchange it make sure that the model numbers of the two HARD drives are 100% identical.

    I've never done this on 2.5 portable hard drives but a few years ago I did it on my drive HARD 3.5 from desktop and it worked and so I was able to recover my data. The reason was that t wasn't HDD spinning up more (totally dead) and the problem was the faulty Control Board.

  • Re: Satellite Pro A210-1AZ: second memory location

    I am trying to upgrade the memory on my Satellite Pro A210-1AZ. I found the 1st slot where the manual has highlighted, but can not find the slot 2. I took the keyboard and looked under but still couldn't find it. Anyone happen to know?

    I think that the second memory location is placed near the first memory slot.
    It must be hidden under the memory module!

    Hello

    You can try to change the mode of the SATA controller in the BIOS from AHCI compatible mode.
    This would install Win XP without including the SATA drivers.

    Otherwise, you will need to add SATA drivers if you want to use the AHCI mode.
    Notes; There are a lot of discussions in this forum about the SATA drivers and how to install win XP using the search function of the Forum!

    Good luck

  • Satellite Pro L10 battery did not reach full charge

    On my Satellite Pro L10 battery only reaches 85% charge if leave all night. Is this likely to be a problem with the supply power, circuits inside the computer or charge the battery?

    I need to know the best place to start to spend money!

    Some experience that may or may not apply to:
    -Battery system is around 2.5 years
    -The battery lasts about 1 to 1.5 hrs that seems fair considering his age and his level of violence (left connected permanently and not recycled periodically)
    -Very recently would not pass, with or without the power adapter connected. Solved by removing AC, then the battery, running on AC, then turn off and reinsert the battery. Everything now works on battery or AC.
    -Over problem, system has been itself decommissioned at random. Since the resolution of the problem of market it was not randomly turned off itself, YET!

    Any help or advice would be much appreciated. Thank you.

    Chris

    HM, sounds to me like a hardware problem. But the problem is to understand where exactly the error, if you have the following options:

    * Contact a service partner chartered for a hardwarecheckup and an accurate diagnosis of your machine ([http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/generic_content.jsp?service=EU&ID=ASP_SUPPORT])
    * You can buy a new battery (since it could be the battery, I guess)
    * You can sell this machine on ebay and buy a new one :)

    Hope I could give you some new and fresh ideas. There is almost no other options or solutions, the it s so your choice.
