Satellite Pro M30 is suddenly off - flashing LED orange

Hello

suddenly, my cell phone is turned off. He wasn't on battery, not on the DC - cable.Now, I can't turn it on and the DC adapter does not help, it is not recognized. The 400 p LED flashes orange 8 times in the following code: long-short-short-short-long-long-long-short.

Which means, that I am I supposed to do now?
Can I use another DC-cable from any other laptop to check if it works then? Or it will cause more trouble?

Thanks for the help!

HI Jana,

Code orange flashing is an indication of error which can be diagnosed by an authorized Service partner. It usually indicates an error (hardware) in a component in your laptop. I do not think that you will be able to fix it yourself, but you can try a few things like the re-allocation of places the HDD, RAM etc modules.

Good luck

  • Satellite Pro M30 - NVIDIA graphics controller problem

    Hello everyone

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro M30 with a Nvidia GeForce FX graphics controller. ([Image of the motherboard | http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh242/hardousss/PC3.jpg])

    My problem is when I turn on the PC and wait a few seconds red and white vertical stripes begins to appear on the LCD and it cannot go after the BIOS password screen. I can type the BIOS password but when I hit OK or button that ENTER the laptop freezes. ([See image 2 | http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh242/hardousss/PC2.jpg])

    In very rare occasions where the laptop was turned off for a long time, I listen to him on and he could overcome the BIOS password screen but freezes after a while: ([see Image 3 | http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh242/hardousss/PC1.jpg])

    I plugged it to an external monitor and nothing has changed.
    I removed the inverter (responsible for the lightning of the LCD screen) and the problem is still there.

    Always to blame the graphics chip from NVIDIA.
    I read here that it is not possible to replace them because they are soldered to the motherboard. But I want to, where can I get a laptop NVIDIA graphics chip. They sell somewhere?
    I have a friend who works in an electronics manufacturing company (SAGEM) and told me that they have the tools needed to replace any piece on any Board of Directors.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hello, my friend

    I agree with you. It must be a faulty graphics card. I put t believe you can buy a graphics chip separately but you can buy mainboard used laptop on eBay. In my view, Exchange Board is no problem for you.

  • My Satellite Pro M70 itself turns off in the middle of the secuence of startup

    My Satellite Pro M70 itself turns off in the middle of the secuence of startup

    After turning on if it passes the test post and enters the menu grub (Linux + Windows) or BIOS
    without problems, but most of the time after the start of the BONE found in the start - up, suddenly it powers off the power.

    The problem becomes bigger and bigger as punishment I can boot any operating system

    As seen on messages more soon as I cleaned the vents of CPU with a spray suddenly sure I wasn't a problem of overheatting.

    Someone has an idea of what can happen?

    Thank you

    Hmm, the laptop passes the MESSAGE correctly and it stops during the initialization of the operating system. Is this good?

    Well, in this case I would exclude the RAM to malfunction.

    I put t also think that it's an overheating problem because the laptop should work a little longer until it would be closed due to high temperature.

    What about the HARD drive malfunction? Are you sure that the HARD drive is ok?

    In my opinion, you should check the HDD and maybe try another.

  • Satellite Pro M30 graphics works not when the driver is installed

    Hi all

    I m having problems with my nvidia Geforce FX Go5200, in a portable Satellite Pro M30, (processor Intel Pentium M 1.7 GHz, 512 MB Ram). This card was working fine suddenly the laptop stops.

    I formatted the laptop and installed Win XP PRO. After installing the driver VGA, I restarted the laptop, but black screen started to come right after the Win XP splash screen appears. The laptop continues to start up but no screen.

    It starts fine in safe mode. I get my best screen simply by disabling the geforce card or uninstall the driver. I tried to install a new driver for the VGA on the download from Toshiba site, but same problem appears. I also tried the BIOS update but nothing happens.

    Can someone help me?
    [email protected]

    It's very strange question. It will be really interesting to know if this happens when you use the CD delivered recovery facilities.

    In any case, I assume that there is a problem with the LCD display. In safe mode, the desktop appears in the resolution decreases but the resolution to the OS boot will be suitable for a standard (1280 x 800), and of course, there is the problem.

    I am not a technician, but I recommend you contact the Service partner. AFAIK they use special tools and programs for display tests. They can tell you more.

  • Satellite Pro M30 series deactivates the WLan connection

    I have an old Satellite Pro M30 series. Whenever I turn on the wireless signal, the computer closes its doors.
    I assume that the driver's latest version.

    I'm not known for that Yes, there is someone out there who can advise me on where to find the latest driver and install it.

    Assuming this is the problem.

    Thank you
    Gibbsey

    > spend a lot of time on the wireless signal, the computer closes its doors.

    What do you mean exactly by farm down?
    The laptop turns off automatically once the WiFi (switch) card is turned on?

    I put t think this would cause obsolete WLan driver, this sounds like a hardware problem.
    In case it of not possible to use the internal WiFi card, I recommend to use an external USB WiFi dongle.
    Would be the best option

    PS: all the drivers for old Toshiba laptops are placed on the page of the Toshiba UE driver.
    You will need to search the archives (in the product Type click Archive) for a list of the old series of laptop computer.

  • Satellite Pro L10 will feed no, no LED display

    My satellite pro L10 has suddenly stoped working .There seems to be no power "." No leds work by battery or sector.
    can someone help?
    CJ

    Hello

    I recommend first of all check the power adapter and the battery functionality.
    But it s very unusual that these two parts are dead at the same time. So I think that has to be something wrong on the motherboard.
    Unfortunately, it is not easy to say what's wrong without any detailed Diagnostics.

    Therefore, you should ask the ASP to support that in the post above suggested.

    I m a bit confused; you have some problems with the graphics card or with the webcam?

    Most of the time it s necessary to do so because I think that it s not Plug & Play device.

  • Satellite Pro M30 - download drivers?

    Hello world

    I hope someone is able to help me:

    I tried to find the drivers for my laptop on this site here, given that my original CD with the top drivers is lost. I was able to get to the section pilots where I entered the serial number of my laptop. After that, I get redirected to a website, which appeared to store everything you need for the Toshiba Satellite Pro M30. Unfortunately, it didn't show the "loading circle', no matter which section, I tried to access (for example"manuals"or"drivers", etc.).
    Then, I hit up the forums and read on 'archive', in which the drivers and other utilities for older, obsolete laptops are available. Unfortunately, this article was not available at all.
    In addition, my research efforts on Google didn't get anywhere.
    Could someone tell me what I have to do to get your hands on these drivers or, where there is not such an option, download me these drivers (for example on Megaupload.com) pack?
    I would be forever indebted to anyone some.

    Thanks in advance!

  • RAM 1 GB upgrade will increase the performance of the Satellite Pro M30?

    My ram size is currenty 512 MB.
    I have the model Satellite Pro M30.
    As the old model, my laptop would be faster if I increase to 1 GB

    Hello

    Of course, the 1 GB of RAM would help increase the performance of your laptop.
    It must be useful for faster loading applications.
    You will notice also that your tools and other software will be faster.

    To upgrade to the 1 GB RAM, you would need two 512 MB modules.
    Usually the PC2700 DDR - RAM 512 MB module must be compatible.
