• Satellite Pro A60 does not supply power to the top

  Hello

  I have a Satellite Pro A60 and when I turn on the machine, the lights come on and the fan whirls for about 5 seconds and then the machine just turns off again.

  No matter if I have the battery or HARD drive in or not, the same phenomenon occurs.
  I guess it's problem of CPU or power supply Board, but I don't know.
  Is there anyone else who has had this problem and if so how is it resolved?

  Any help would be appreciated very with gratitude that I am out of warranty and need the laptop when you work from home.

  Thank you

  Hello

  I guess it can be a single processor or card mother related issue.
  If there is something wrong with the power supply for laptop card then the cell phone would not turn on, even for 5 sec.

  But it's only my personal suggestion to make sure what's exactly wrong check specifications should be necessary.

  So I think that a laptop computer technician should check it out.

  Good bye

• Satellite Pro A300: No volume indicator displays on the screen

  try to use the "Fn + esc" key to cut your system...
  He will remain silent even for restart the computer...

  If none of the keys have a special feature of "Fn" reinstall the 'value added package' and 'hotkeys' of the toshiba download page.

  Hello

  You will need a compatible CD/DVD player.
  Not all readers are supported due to different master/slave/c-salt settings.
  ODD, that uses wrong settings will not be recognized by the BIOS.

  You can buy a compatible player to a Toshiba ASP in your country.
  You can also consult your user manual.
  In my manual, I could find some information on the compatible sides

  Hi Barry,.

  I'd be inclined to return your laptop to an authorized Service Agent Toshiba. The OEM software should not require all the updated drivers at this early stage of his life, and the unit will be well within its warranty period.

  The closer your repairman details can be found on the Toshiba site.

• Satellite Pro A60 - screen 'dead '.

  Hi all, hope you can help.

  I have a Satellite Pro A60. I stopped as usual, the other night, when I turned on the machine the next morning, he made all the usual noises, but no screen - just empty (black). I can connect to an external display and it works perfectly, so I know it's just the screen.

  I took it to a local repair place and they asked if I had given up and said that she needed a new screen, 180 lbs please. Thought I'd take the first tips. Certainly, it has not been abandoned or suffered trauma, in fact it barely moves away from my place of work.

  Would it be a fuse or something similar, or screens just die and I'm going to need a new? If she needs a new screen, where can I buy one and it's easy to fit/connect?

  Thank you very much

  Hello Sharon

  I'm really sorry to hear you have such a problem. As already wrote kody, check please if you can see a small image on the screen. If so, there is problem with FL inverter. It is the component of small material placed under the screen and it offers the backlight.

  OK, to buy the new screen is not a problem. You'll find maybe used one and it will be much cheaper than a new one. Replacement is no problem, but this must be done after the disassembly procedure. Talk with your friends. Maybe someone can help you with this.

• Satellite Pro A60 PL: message: USB device can run faster

  Hello!

  I have a problem with the USB 2.0 drivers in my Satellite Pro A60 PL. everytime when I connect the message apear theres USB 2.0 device this device can run faster. What can I do about it?

  Hi guys

  I received the same message. It s not an error but a balloon tip Windows.
  I didn't find the reason for this message because my phone supports USB 2.0 ports too and I also connected a USB 2.0 compatible device.

  I've tired to remove the Device Manager, the controllers and the USB hubs and updated the Win XP operating system to the last State. I've also updated the driver chipset but sometimes (not always) this message again using a disc HARD 2.5 USB.

  I read in some professional computer magazines that this message is normal and it might appears with some SATA external USB hard drives. So you can ignore it.
  It s nothing serious.

• Cannot start WXP installed on my Satellite Pro A60

  Hello

  I just got a Satellite Pro A60 of second hand. He had installed xp pro, but I did have no password. , so I formatted the drive and made two partitions. There are 30 GB and the other approximately 7 GB.

  I tried to install a WXP Pro copy that has worked for me before, but he would not complete the installation. Now, I have a Toshiba Recovery disk. When I use the recovery CD, the installation goes fine, but when its full and restarts, the laptop does not start in Windows.

  He comes to Toshiba screen twice then WXP logo appears for a moment about 10 seconds or more, then go back to the f8 screen. Last time, he said it could be due to a hardware change with these lists of 'safe mode' options, safe mode with command prompt mode implementation network, security, last known good configuration. I tried all the but still cannot boot into windows.

  The hard drive has the files I used l-soft active@killdisk unerasor tools, change password and partition Viewer, I could see the file system of windows etc. Laptop has 512 MB RAM, 40 GB drive HARD, Celeron.

  I just updated the bios to V1.90 by CD-ROM. Please can someone help me?
  Thank you

  Hello

  You have installed the operating system from the recovery CD Toshiba but have you used the original Toshiba comes with this laptop recovery CD?

  The BSOD appears mainly due to hardware failure or the software flaw serious
  The Toshiba Recovery CD contains all the drivers needed and tools, but if you use a recovery CD badly the pre-installed drivers can cause the error and BSOD could appears.

  However if some hardware like the memory module or the graphics card is damaged the BSOD are included also.

• Satellite Pro A60-832: sometimes the OS starts without sound and modem

  Hello

  I have a problem with my Satellite Pro A60-832. Everything works perfectly, but sometimes my system starts without sound. When this happends, modem also does not work. After reboot, everything works well again. I integrate Windows XP Pro SP2, but the same thing was happening with the original Windows XP Pro SP1 provided in the Toshiba Recovery CD.
  Any ideas?

  Sorry for my bad English.

  As mentioned, a high temperature might be responsible for these drop-outs, but I n t think that there is a problem in your case.
  I think that the temperature cannot be very high immediately after the start of the laptop.

  In case I would recommend comparing the BIOS installed on the unit you with available on the Toshiba page BIOS.
  If there is a new version of the BIOS so you can try to update.
  But be sure you use the good BIOS and the proper procedure.

• During BIOS update by Satellite Pro A60 went down and did not start

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite Pro A60 and I've updated the bios. To halfway the update, my laptop came down and started Hasna´t since. It only give a couple of beeps (trying to tell me the bios is damaged, I guess) and turns off again.

  Tried to start with (~) key pressed (a tip I received from a friend), but without success.

  I live in a country where there is no available Toshiba dealer and I rather not ship the laptop for repair.

  Does anyone know how to fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  This doesn't sound good.
  If during the POST, the BIOS detects a problem, it will normally display an error message visual on the monitor explaining what the problem is. However, if a problem is detected before it initializes BIOS video card or a video card is not present or not detected then BIOS will play through the Speaker beeps to let you know there is a problem.
  Depending on the type of BIOS you have the BIOS can play beeps in a specific pattern to indicate what the problem is, or emits the signal even a few times indicating the problem.

  In your case, it is possible to s you used a bad BIOS or bad BIOS procedure. Both can damage the motherboard.
  To avoid such damage and mistakes, Toshiba published FAQ document.
  How to upgrade the BIOS on most of the units!

  That you should read before making updates to the BIOS!
  Unfortunately, I n t think that you can fix yourself. I think you should ask to help ASP.

• ATI error and no windows - Satellite Pro A60

  Hello

  When I start my computer, I get a blue error screen c0000415
  A quick google reveals that this is one of these: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/832324

  "So what are you bothering? I hear you cry - the problem I have is, in getting this error of the other (also the ATI card based) I stuck my red disc in and erased everything - including the windows... and CFLA error occurs before windows installs and SafeMode (-that worked perfectly before) does not work because windows is not installed!

  Oh the fun.

  "I think it's a hardware error" - Yes so don't I... However, before the reinstall and get it back, I could work to the computer in safe mode and videos played very well with the resolution and full color. Am I missing the point if I think a video work is an indicator of a working video card?

  I admit that I'm perplexed indeed. I'll try to dig up an old Windows 98 drive, but I don't know how much this will help, because the only copy of XP I have is on the recovery disk... [Return to step 1]

  Any suggestions much appreciated - thanks in advance...

  [it's a satellite pro A60 w / 256 +?] RAM, processor celeron 2.8 Ghz, ATI Mobility Radeon 7000 etc...]

  Hello

  As suggested in document of Microsoft this problem can occur if an ATI Radeon 7200 graphics card has been installed on your computer and the driver that is supplied with this adapter may not work correctly with Windows XP.
  The installation of SP2 should help.

  This statement of Ms. says it all! It of not a hardware problem but it is a compatibility issue with Windows XP (without SP2) and the driver radeon ATI 7200.

  You should try to get an original CD of Windows XP with or without SP2.
  The software callednLiteallows you to create a Windows clean boot CD and add the patches MS and service packs for this CD.

  Then, you can try to boot this CD and after installing the OS, you need to update or change the graphics driver!

• Satellite Pro A60-138 PSA65E - cannot boot from c WEIRD

  Hello
  I bought this laptop on ebay, with no cd or manual.

  Satellite Pro A60 GR
  MODEL PSA65E-01K032GR NUMBER

  Hard drive is formatted.
  I tried to install xp, because I start the laptop it just says: "control system.
  Then press [F1]. "If I press F1, it tries to read the cd and gives up after a few seconds.

  If there is no cd in the cd drive there simply nothing.
  I tried to start the bios menu but everything works,(F12,F8,del) key.

  Is there something I can do?
  installing drivers or anything like that?

  Hello

  In order to access the BIOS please press F2, then ESC.
  This should load the BIOS and you can change the boot order there.

  In addition, you can press F12 at the beginning.
  This will allow the menu on the screen where you can choose the STRANGE as a source of start-up.

  But are you able to boot from another CD?
  The CD/DVD drive is unable to read the disc, and therefore the boot process fails

  You could also burn this disc Win XP on another CD and could use the new disk to the start I did with my old laptop because the CD/DVD drive didn't read the old CD.
