• Satellite Pro L20 does not illuminate

  Hope you can help. We have a 5 years satellite pro L20 who never gave a lot of days. It runs from Win XP, had an upgrade (crucial) memory to 2 GB and a new battery 4 years ago 4 years ago. 2 days ago, he simply left with the same noise you get when force a shutdown by holding the power button down. I tried to boot with no battery, just the sector and only on a charged battery. All to nothing does not.

  I then read the button of power with the battery and removed sector I did after leaving it overnight. When I replaced the battery it started as usual and lasted 30 seconds before turning off again, and then he was dead. I have tried all combinations with the ram up to 1 stick or kidnapped and attempted to get the bios with the HDD outside as well. Still nothing.

  I noticed that when I put the battery in 2 of the 3 flashes briefly, and now the button of pwer while pushing the battery causes a brief start 4 seconds.

  Any ideas as to what this may be? I suspect that the hardware and software. Also, I tried a different power adapter, once again no results. It stays just off.

  Thanks for any help...

  Hello

  I'm afraid it looks like a serious m hardware problem
  My first idea was a malfunction of the RAM in such a case, you could replace and test the memory, but it seems that you have already tried

  In my view there s something wrong with a motherboard or a part on the motherboard :(
  In this case I n t think a replacement of the motherboard would be useful since this part is very expensive

• Satellite Pro L20 does not start

  I have a new satellite pro L20 M750
  does not start
  the thing is since the first time I tried to start it it would not start.
  I bought it over the internet and is still brand new in the plastic bag, would there be anything to make this power for the first time or it is defective.

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  Did you check if the AC adapter is working properly?
  Initially, the battery is not charged. You must connect the power adapter to recharge the battery.

• Satellite Pro L20: battery not charge when the power adapter is connected

  Hello

  all advice appreciated.

  I had a Satellite Pro L20 for about 18 months. Recently, battery does not charge when the power adapter is connected. The battery light starts yellow (which means more liberated, I think?), then will both green, the machine sat for awhile. However the ACPI often said that AC is "offline."

  There are two recent occurrences that coincide with this problem, I try to eliminate:

  1. my friends rat chewed by the feeder for pets! Power is Mobile OK insofar as he fled sector - the rat seems to have simply chewed by the outer cover (I see some threads, but I think that is just a shield, although I'm not an electrician).

  2. I put the laptop in hibernation for the first time. That seemed to mess up the system a bit, which was what initially drew my attention to the problem. This question is a bit complicated because I'm under Linux (Xubuntu).

  I updated the drivers etc from windows when I bought the laptop. Never had any problems until now and have been running linux for centuries. Also, I have mainly the laptop the power supply turned off, but do not remove the battery (is that really a problem these days?)

  I obviously need to replace the adapter, but is - it is likely (and how I can check) that the battery was borked until?

  see you soon
  Chris

  First, please check if the other are lit.
  If the AC led and power led are on the adapter sector is ok and it provides the power to the laptop.

  > The battery light starts yellow (which means more liberated, I think?), then will both green, the machine sat for awhile
  If the battery LED is yellow, this means that the battery is not fully charged and if the Green led changes then recharging is caught and the battery has been recharged.

  So I really don t see any problems with the charge process.

  Maybe the battery is old and so you cannot use it for an extended in such a case only the replacement of the battery could help.

• Satellite Pro A60 would not work XP, but is fine with W2k

  I bought my A60 as last year, worked well but oneday froze, tried to reinstall the OS using the product recovery disc. the procedure went very well and asked for a restart, but on reboot it froze again, I tried Pro Rec disc a few times, but with the same result.

  Then I tried the fresh xp copy that also froze before installing the files. I am now using windows 2000 which seem 2 ran fine for a few weeks, but now I have no volume.
  I have triede pilot plant but it still would not come. If im use it without volume, but I can't understand why would he not let me install the product or Win XP Recovery disk but would allow win2000 but without volume.

  Please help me, thank you very much

  Hello

  It is very strange that this unit freeze after the installation of recovery. Please remember that no external devices are connected to the unit when you do this.
  It will also be interesting if you have upgraded from memory.

  Before using the recovery installation CD you can also try to set default values in the BIOS.

• Satellite Pro L20 - LAN not working after install OS re -

  Recently, I replaced my hard drive and I used the drive recovery product etc.

  WXP loaded perfectly and now my wired LAN doesn't seem to work. What it gives me limited connectivity or none.
  I tried to uninstall and reinstall the drivers, manually enter the IP settings and still nothing will work.

  I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem before and that he could offer me any advice.

  Thanks in advance

  M8KWR

  Maybe you should check your settings to your router. Maybe some bad DNS, subnet mask, etc.

  Already checked the cable? Maybe the cable is defective. Any overlap it with another cable.

  Would like to get feedback on your part.
  Also what operating system are you using?

• Satellite Pro L20 keyboard problems not fixed by the update of the BIOS

  Hello

  When I type in MS Word or another application, certain characters are not displayed. This problem is known.
  I followed the recommendation of the TOSHIBA BIOS V1.30 for PSL25E update. Unfortunatey, it does not help.
  I would be gateful to any Advisor.

  Thank you

  Hi Olbur

  I didn't find any official document on this subject, as you say, known issue. Can you please send a link?

  I have the Satellite L20 and there is not much difference for Satellite Pro L20 and I have no such problems, but I'm interesting about this. The L20 keyboard is not the best one, but all the characters are not displayed correctly. Maybe you type fast. ;)

• Satellite Pro L20 - cd/dvd drive not responding

  Hello

  I currently have a Satellite Pro L20, recently my cd/dvd drive a work stoppage, and he comes back with the error message i/o device driver. It is impossible to read any form of cd/DVD. I can't explore keeps it the d: drive asking for a disc to be inserted.

  Thank you.

  I relly m not 100% sure if my advice will help you to solve this problem, but I recommend to remove the drive from the device and then Manager to delete the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters values completely from the following registry key:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  Then restart the laptop and check if it helps it worth a try.

  Anyway if it doesn t help chances are readers equipment would malfunction. Maybe the s drive laser lens can not calibrate in the right position and, therefore, it of not possible to read or write CD or DVD.

• Need to reinstall windows, but does not have any CD - Satellite Pro L20

  Hi, I wanted to reinstall Windows XP home on my Satellite Pro L20, but do not have the software that my laptop came with (read the discs lost). I have a valid XP tone (like its stuck on the bottom of my laptop), but no disc so I tired using a copy of a cd of Windows XP home, which did not work, but let me go as far as the formatting of the hard drive.

  So now I use Ubuntu, but want to reinstall Windows. Have valid product key, but no software to reinstall.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you

  Christopher

  Valid key will not help you. This key belongs to the image recovery and copy included WXP he.
  If you have two options. Either you order original Toshiba recovery image or use Microsoft installations CD key which belongs to this copy. All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities that you can download at Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads.

  Good luck!

• Satellite Pro L20 - recovery utility hangs and does not complete

  Hello.

  I've been running my L20 Pro Satellite for two years now, quite happy. Unfortunately, in the last 3 months, he began to misbehave. The startup time stretched to 5-10 minutes by that I mean time spent in "black" screen between the initials XP boot logo and the bright blue splash screen Windows. Playing sound/media crackled and stuttered badly through the loudspeaker. So, being reasonable technical, I've read various articles forum tried MSCONFIG tweaks here and there, removed all viruses etc... Nothing helps.

  I began to suspect a HARD drive problem. CHKDSK has not shown any errors. I finally resolved to back up my data and attempt a complete recovery. (Virgin!)

  Unfortunately, this is going to plan. medium 90% up to the end of the NVA Toshiba Recovery Utility 1.0.1.0 I think, started making subtle beeps and stopped on the 'X:\03596002 '. File of the GHS. The Green HARD-drive activity light has renounced his reassuring twinkling. Nothing.

  Any suggestions tips out there? I am currently in the State where he can not start (no NTLDR found).

  Help.

  Thank you.

• Satellite Pro L20-164 will not launch

  Satellite Pro L20 - 164 running Windows XP. Get the initial window (press F2/F12) then just a white screen.
  Any help welcome.

  Hello

  You mean that you cannot access the BIOS?
  Usually by pressing F2 should lead you to the BIOS settings.
  If this is not possible, then a problem of BIOS/motherboard might be reason for that

  You are able to boot from the CD?
  You can boot from CD by pressing C or F12. By pressing F12 should allow a start on the screen menu. Then you could choose ODD as a boot device.

• Driver chipset XP will not be installed in the Satellite Pro L20

  Hello

  I recently rebuilt my Satellite Pro L20 to finally give my father in law.
  I installed windows XP home on it and have currently installed SP2.
  When I try to install the software of the chipset of the official region on the Toshiba site he says that my operating system does not meet the criterion even though windows XP is listed in the readme file.

  Please help as this is supposed to be a Christmas gift!

  Thanks in advance

  Post edited by: rick_monkey - spelling!

  Hello!

  Have you really downloaded the correct driver? For this model are XP and Vista drivers available so I think that you had to download the wrong driver.

  Try again, maybe the download file is intact. If it doesn t work once again, you can download the driver also from Intel.

  But normally you have a Toshiba Recovery with all the drivers and tools disk. Install from this disc and you have a clean and ready installation.

  Good bye

• Satellite Pro L20 - Fuction key does not

  Hello

  I have a satellite Pro L20 running xp pro. We use at the school, connected to a projector to display on the screen for children to see.

  the problem is that we use the Fn + F5 key on the laptop to scroll the screen option (two screens or not) but nothing happens, it seems that it does not meet our request. and the projector read no source found. Some days she turns on automatically, but when it doesn't. We are stuck, I tried to look into the display properties, but nothing here to try n force both screens light up. Help

  Azab

  Hello

  Also try switching to the external device settings Intel. You can find it under Advanced display settings. I also recommend you to reinstall the TOSHIBA utilities. I'm not 100% sure but it may be responsible for the function FN + F5.

  Also check Toshiba HWSetup under the view tab. Activate LCD + analog RGB option.

• Satellite Pro L20 - original drive not grateful

  Hello

  Ive looked for forums and the internet in general but was unable to find anything related to my problem.

  Recently, I removed the my Satellite Pro L20 original hard drive and replaced by a spare part just to test another operating system. I didn't wipe my existing windows of the original OS.

  However, now if I place the original hard drive in the laptop, it does not recognize it in the BIOS at all. The original works of disk of 60Go perfectly in an external USB caddy on the laptop, but used in their own country. At first, thought it might be the drive so I bought a new drive of 250 GB, but again, not recognized.

  Reading, I think that the original drive is an EIDE drive and I don't think that the replacement of 12 GB is drive I put in temporarily. Ive also tried reflashing the BIOS, hoping that might solve the problem, but without any luck again.

  Could you get it someone please let me know how to solve this problem?

  Thank you

  Martin

  Hello

  This s very strange problem you have deleted first disk of 60 GB, then you have reinserted and the BIOS doesn t recognize now 60 GB HARD drive.
  Am I wrong?

  One of my friends had a similar problem. The original internal HDD was not recognized by the BIOS. After a lengthy investigation, he set the BIOS to the default settings and restarted the laptop.

  This helped to recover the HARD drive

• Satellite Pro L20-212 - USB 2.0 does not work

  Hello

  I own a * Satellite Pro L20-212 *, * Windows XP (SP2) is installed, but USB2.0 does not work *. I see nothing on USB 2.0 in the Devicemanager and the speed of the USB 2.0 devices attached is at the level of the USB 1.1.

  I don't know what information is needed to help me with this problem as it should normally work on my laptop (and I know that the laptop has USB 2.0 ports).

  What I have to install a special driver to use USB2.0 or is there any software on my laptop that I need to activate?

  Thank you very much
  Frank

  Hello

  Did you install the image on the Toshiba Recovery CD? This image contains the Windows operating system, Toshiba drivers and additional utilities. After installation, everything should work fine, and also the USB ports should work also.

  The USP ports, you can find in Device Manager in the serial BUS controller universal section. Open the tree and check if there is some yellow exclamation points.
  Then try to remove the Device Manager, the controllers and the USB hub and restart the laptop. After restarting again the OS should recognize USB controllers deleted again.

  I hope that this accelerated procedure will help you.
