Satellite Pro A30 is randomly turn off

Hello

I have a Satellite Pro A30 and from time to time it just turn off. It happens to any application that I use. It will then restart and on my desk, I will get the message that my Active Desktop was stopped unexpectedly and asks if I would like to turn it back on. I noticed that it does appear that this operation when the power supply is connected.

I can't be sure if it happened only when he has worked outside the network, but I'm starting to think it is. The charger seems to work fine though as it loads fine and power mode changes when it is plugged.

Any help anyone can give would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks in advance,

Babin

Satellite Pro A30 is quite old and probably you have not cleaned up until now. If the unit tips suddenly OFF, independent, running application it may be due to overheating.

It is possible the unit turns off often when it is connected to the power running, because in this case, the standard profile in power management is full power. Power supply battery, CPU activity will solve automatically on the lower level and maybe you can do a little bit more.

In any case, I recommend you to clean the unit and remove the dust. You can try to do this alone, but I recommend doing it on the professional way but you can make a decision how to proceed.

  • Satellite Pro 6100 often randomly turns off and bad RTC error

    Hi, I recently bought a sp6100 and it worked fine at first but now it goes out often random and comes with BAD RTC ERROR at startup. As a musician who uses the pc, it is very painful and I lost much of my work. Anyhelp would be great. Conrad

    HI Conrad,.

    Power loss random is usually a symptom of overheating and can usually be cured by cleaning all dust and lint that built into the CPU radiator. A vacuum cleaner is a useful ally in so doing. Just put the hose against the grids of aspiration air for a few seconds.

    The RTC error refers to the adjustment of the real time clock which is normally held by a small battery, usually mounted on the motherboard of your laptop. It is used to maintain the settings of the BIOS (including date/time) and is completely separate from your main laptop battery. Modification of the RTC (or CMOS) battery will involve some disassembly, so is best left to an authorized Service partner.

  • Satellite Pro M70 overheats and turns off

    Need to support some tech with this problem.

    Satellite Pro M70 constant over heating problem. After use of 20-30 minutes of normal (web navigation etc.) the bottom of the laptop becomes really hot near the fan, unbearably hot to the touch.
    If I play games or do whatever it is cpu-intensive, it will end by the smell of the burning and power off.

    All this time the CPU fan never turns! Just lets him get more hotter and hotter. Strange thing, that's when you start first upward, the spins of CPU fan for about 5-6 seconds to make it work! Already tried to clean it, was not very dirty, the fan is not stuck, it runs if you blow...
    Update I tried to the latest version of the BIOS overheating again...
    Tried all the toshiba utils for cpu temp monitoring etc., they indicate the CPU get more hotter and hotter much more of 60 c +, but none of them (or other 3rd party utils) can detect the fan...!

    Fix for that or is it just bad fan / design of the temp sensor?

    > Already tried cleaning...
    Yes, but how did you do that?

    In the past, I have separated three Satellite M70 notebooks and was surprised inside, how much dust has been placed behind the cooling rack. After notebook professional cleaning was much quieter and has been properly cooled.
    Maybe the grease thermal CPU and graphic should be replaced also.
    After a long period of use, it seems quite dehydrated.

  • Satellite PRO U300 does not turn off

    Hello

    I am facing a problem for the last few days on my Satellite PRO U - 300 (31st PSU)...

    The machine does not turn off and the power light stays on (blue LED) even after you have disabled. In fact, happened 3 - 4 times when I start the computer normally by pressing the power button / stop, it does not start and I noticed that the indicator was not extinguished even after + shut down +. Like any it is blocked! I have to finally, remove and reinsert the battery to start the laptop.

    Some details of my pc are as under:

    Version of the OS Microsoft® Windows Vista Business 6.0.6001 Service Pack 1
    BIOS Version V2.00
    Processor Intel (r) Core (TM) 2 Duo CPU T7100 @ 1.80 GHz

    Can someone help me solve this problem. Is it possible that during the uninstallation of programs, any perticular driver file is also deleted?
    Thank you

    JITENDRA

    Hello

    I don't know that you understand the indicator of power, but to me it sounds like AC Power LED and this LED is always on when the laptop is connected to the power supply.

    Power on / off LED is probably what you mean (the other starting on the left).
    Anyway, you turn off your laptop using a standard on the Start button?
    Are you sure you want to use the Hibernate mode.

    Believe me, the entire description here is pretty confusing to me. It may be that the laptop is turned OFF but power light is still on.

    Have you installed something 4 days ago? Or deleted some important application?
    Sorry, but it is not easy to say with certainty what the problem is here.

  • Satellite Pro A300D heats and turns off

    Satellite Pro A300D gets very hot and sometimes it turns off by itself. He did this recently.

    What could be the problem?

    Hello

    Usually, the notebooks of cooling modules should be good enough to ensure that the laptop could be cooled properly.
    It s not necessary to use a cooling means.

    In most cases, these cooling States blow air.
    This can be problematic, because internal notebooks cooling fans blow hot air too.

    I think you need to make sure there is enough free space around the laptop and should not use the device in his bed, sofa or on the lap. Use the laptop on the table and I think that this should help to avoid overheating more far.

    See you soon

  • Re: Satellite Pro L670 - can I turn off the sound when the battery is empty?

    Hello

    Is it possible to disable the bios beep when the battery is empty or the laptop's Hibernate?

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro L670.

    Even when the sound in Windows is turned off the laptop do a annoying sound.

    Thank you!

    Maybe it sounds silly, but I put t understand why that should be disabled. When the battery reaches the critical battery level you will be informed about this and portable must be connected to the power running or you have to save your work and turn it off.

    Do you really want to work until the battery is completely discharged?

    Anyway, AFAIK this notification level BIOS cannot be disabled.
    Let's see if someone else is better informed than me.

  • Satellite Pro A60 has just turned off and won't come back

    My Satellite A60 laptop just turned off and will not go there is nothing no sound no lights nothing.it ran on sector when it happened.

    any help apreciated

    Hello, Heidi

    Remove the battery, connect your laptop adapter only and try starting your laptop running. When the laptop boot and OS is fully loaded, wait a few minutes and reinsert the battery.

    If everything is OK look carefully if the battery will be charged correctly and when battery LED is green (fully charged battery) try to turn off your laptop as usual. Turn it back on and carefully monitor what is happening exactly.

  • Satellite Pro L300 - PSLB9E - cannot turn off wifi except for by Win 7

    I installed Win7 64 bit with a custom installation (replacing 32-bit Vista). I have updated all drivers (to my knowledge) and BIOS to 2.1. The wifi is always enabled, any position of the switch on the front or the combination Fn + F8. I can unplug a wifi service in the network Panel Win 7. This may seem like a good problem to have, but the power gets used when on battery. Obvious pointers? I can't follow up? Thank you very much.

    You can likely install toshiba value added package for win 7 if it is available.
    I also have the same problem with mij L40 pro and value pack for Windows 7 will not install on my laptop.
    Maybe it wil last updated in the future.

  • Satellite A200-1FL randomly turns off

    Hello

    I have the problem that after I moved from the Spain to the Thailand now my Toshiba Satellite A200-1FL randomly turns off.
    This only seems to happen when it is connected with AC - with battery I have it is not happened again although I can't rule out it.

    After some time of work (sometimes only 10 minutes, sometimes up to 2 hours) the laptop just shuts off-as if I would unplug the unit without the battery inserted. It is certainly not an overheating problem because the CPU is at 55º c most of the time (a year before the cpu fan was dirty and he has sometimes increased to 90º - but which caused no stops).

    I don't know about electricity here in Thailand - but it seems 220V and they do not use the Earth (at least at the point where I am).
    I use the original Toshiba AC adapter.

    What could be the problem here - is there any solution or the solution to this problem?

    Thanks for any help,
    vitaminx

    Hey,.

    As stone I n not know electricity of the Spain and Thailand, but if you have only this problem with the AC adapter / CC, there are a few differences between the Spain and the Thailand.

    In your case, I will ask the local authorized maintainer in Thailand. For example just give them a call and ask a technician for help. I'm pretty sure, they can give you an answer if you need a new power supply or another outlet.

    Good luck! :)

  • Compatible BIOS ACPI for Satellite Pro A30

    Hello, I have a Satellite Pro A30 which has 1 GB RAM and 2.8 GHZ P4 processor. I was wondering when toshiba would provide ACPI compatible BIOS upgrades for these machines? Because I would like to upgrade to Windows Vista, when running the Vista Upgrade Advisor, my machine will work Windows Vista professional, but I just want to use Windows Vista Basic.

    So I started the upgrade of Windows XP, and once the computer is restarted to begin installation of Vista I was faced with the blue screen, indicating that my BIOS is not fully ACPI.

    It seems such a shame that the machine is up to running under Vista, but Toshiba did not provide updates to bios ACPI. My bios version is 1.80.

    Any idea?

    Hi Keith

    Sorry to say but I agree with the above stanislaus.
    I'm wondering if this laptop has Vista capable sticker? Not?
    Well well, in such cases, it of not a big surprise that Vista can not be installed.

    Of course, I installed Vista on my M40 unit.
    I was a lucky guy ;) But I put t expect that Vista will run on each computer on this world some laptops really supports Vista and some not :(

    By the way: I found this document:

  • Satellite Pro A30: Difference between the motherboard K000013790 vs K000011360

    Hi all

    I need to replace my motherboard on a Satellite pro A30.
    The Board of Directors is to be replaced is a k000011360.
    The advice I can get to replace is K000013790.

    Can someone tell me the difference between these two?
    I have a 2.6 GHz CPU that may not be supported by the
    replacement card.

    If I understand correctly, all Pro A30 boards have a standard form factor
    so can be interchanged.

    TIA,
    Ray.

    Hello

    I'm really skeptical that anyone here can give you accurate information. Maybe you will be lucky and a technician will be post but before wait you here and size your time I recommend you exchange it with the same.

    On this way, you will be sure that it will work well and there will be no problem with the other hardware components or maybe sort of moderator suites like overheating, permanent cooling fan running.

    Also can you check if this card fits into the A30 (ports on the right place) case?

    Hello

    The problem occurred before that you subscribed to iTunes?
    Maybe a 3rd party software has a bad influence on the sound properties?
    It's not easy to say why it happens because we don t know what you have installed on your laptop.
    However, you should check the Toshiba driver download page and here, you must download and install the driver of his most recent.
    Check also the AC97 Audio configuration in Control Panel.
