Satellite Pro U500 will not load

Hi all

I have a little used old U500 of 2 years, and I am puzzled.

A few weeks ago I noticed my light on and it would not charge battery charge.
I didn't watch the charger light on the transformer - which was lit, so ended up paying £20 for a battery note that it would not yet of course load wasn't a bad battery.

On the plug-in transformer/charger light showed green so I guess then it must be a faulty Jack inside my machine because there was able to get out the transformer plug / the green light is on.

Today I disassembled the machine and I have replaced the plug connector on the motherboard - no problem, it starts and it is not yet taken on a charge. I have spent £30 on this piece of cr@p so far, should I now buy a new cable from charger etc?

I have a faulty plug/transformer - despite the green light showing that is powered or is there anything else I can try?

The charge or power on my laptop light is lighting up.

Help, please!

see you soon
Craig

Hello

I would be really surprised if someone here would be able to tell what's wrong with the laptop, I doubt that this is possible without test equipment and execution of some hardware diagnostic tests.

> Have I not a defective/transformer Plug - despite the green light showing that is powered or is there anything else I can try?

I don t think that the power adapter is faulty. As I understand you, the laptop features and you can use it plugged in. This means the AC adapter to power the laptop and this means that the adapter is ok.
In General, you should be able to use the laptop, even if the battery is removed. So in my opinion, it seems like that the question must be related to electronic on motherboard problems because the new battery does not solve this problem of load

By the way: it's your BIOS up-to-date? Would be interesting to check this

    There is a simple solution to this problem.  The HP Online Crash Analysis Team has finally responded to my email after 34 days.  I had given up hearing from them despite several requests to repeat.

    I had completely disassembled the laptop trying to find the bios setting the jumpers on the motherboard in response to an idea contained in one of the PM, I sent... all to nothing does not...

    OCAT told me to look in the BIOS under "system configuration" for the Native SATA support.  The last update of the BIOS resets this point 'activated', but that only works for Vista & Win 7.  This must be set to "disabled" for XP and previous operating system.

  • Satellite Pro A200 does not load if current enforcement

    Hello

    I have a new Toshiba Satellite Pro A200 on Vista. I have a problem with the power adapter and charge socket.
    It will start and run very well and when turned off will charge the battery of fine food. But when running, the machine automatically runs battery, no network and does not load.

    This means that the battery is sinking and ended up to be recharged so just off the coast.
    When the power supply is removed and then reinserted, it will load for maybe 30 seconds, then stops to load again initially and continues to run on battery.
    At the same time, the blue light of indication on the front of the machine lights up to indicate that the ESA is connected and detected, and on battery defiler on windows in States ' ac connected, not charging battery "-in other words it works of ac and is detected but the machine isn't use to run power supply or load unless it is turned off...

    Can anyone offer a solution?

    Thank you

    That s very strange and I guess that this problem could be linked to the hardware problem.
    Either it's a defective battery or there is something wrong with the electronic power supply on the motherboard.
    In my opinion, there is only one way to know what's wrong some diagnostic tests are needed.
    This test can be performed by a technician of the ASP.
    That is why it s advisable to contact an ASP in your country for audits.

    This is a new laptop and warranty should cover everything!

  • Satellite Pro P875 will not display on '3D ready' 3D projector emachines V700

    Hello

    I am struggling with the display of 3D on a 3d ready projector emachines V700.
    I tried different software, stereoscopic player, CyberLink DVDPlayer 12 without success.

    CyberLink DVDPlayer is configured to use the Intel card - which will not limit its possibilities to use the 3D Vision NVidea support?

    On the NVidea Control Panel, the option for the specification of the graphics card is grayed out and configured for the use of the Intel card, for all CyberLink programs.

    The error message I see, is that the software can not enable 3D support. I used the mode "120 time sequential 3D LCD.

    The Toshiba Bue Ray Player has yet identified the Blu Ray in 3D, as it seems.
    It shows 3D blu ray than 2D and 3D button is grayed out.

    I have:
    Toshiba Satellite Pro P875
    HDMI cable
    EMachines V700
    Shutter 3D glasses: Hi Pro shock

    Hello

    From my point of view, you can use this capable 3D projector as part of the nVidia 3D vision.

    http://www.nvidia.co.UK/object/3D-vision-main-UK.html

    As I m not wrong not the display/projector must support 120 Hz and must be set to 120 Hz in order to use the 3D side-by-side mode.

    In addition you need a compatible software/player stereo standard (for example 3D VISION video player)

  • Satellite Pro L300 will not start

    I have a portable Satellite Pro L300 and he won't start (in other words the power button and not going not past the first screen).

    Works for keyboard, but F2, F8 or F12 will not do anything, I can't here the disk hard powerup but it's like no one is at home. I don't know if it's the motherboard or the onboard battery. The computer is about 7-8 years

    Can anyone help.

    It s certainly nothing wrong with a RTC battery (as you said internal battery).
    The RTC battery can be charged. The unit must be turned on and adapter must be connected at least for about 18 hours.
    But I guess that this isn't a problem.

    The laptop does not start because of a hardware malfunction, but it's hard to say what role may be affected. But you should absolutely consult the RAM modules.
    This should be the first step, since the RAM modules are easy to replace.

    All other parts should be checked by the type of service.

    Any help would be really appreciated.
    Thank you, Wayne...

    Hello Wayne

    In front of me, I have Satellite P500 and I use it almost 10 months now without a single update. What I'm updating are important updates from Microsoft. More than that and so far I didn't notice a single hardware or software problem.
    After reading your ad m a little confused.

    As far as I know Toshiba doesn't offer any DVD for that laptop, not any kind of pilot DVD so please be so kind and tell me which DVD driver is and who has created and offered this DVD.

    original is Win7 64 bit OS (original image of recovery Toshiba) preinstalled on this P500?

  • Satellite L300 laptop will not load Windows

    I have a model of Satellite L300 number PSLB0A - 00L 022 running windows Vista.

    The problem is that it does not load Windows. It starts ok and I can access the boot manager and the Setup utility and that's it. It stops just loading.
    After studying the problem, I ran a car aptitude test and the result was the error code 0 x 70. After looking at the code I m under the impression that I need to erase the disc. I have no problem with that.

    My question is - if I run the windows Recovery Wizard will be it solve my problem? I will have to re install vista at all? All advice is appreciated!

    Hello Jane and welcome in the Toshiba forum

    After reading your ad, I must say that the best solution and easier for you is to reinstall the operating system via original Toshiba recovery DVD. This DVD contains the operating system, all necessary drivers, specific Toshiba and utility tools. After recovery image installation you will get state out-of-box and clean the preinstalled operating system.

    Yes, this should solve your problem. Please note: when you do it all saved data will be deleted.

    You have some important data saved on your laptop?
    Do not use this disc reinstall Vista and everything should be ok again.

  • Phone Pro U500 will not start

    Cannot start my Pro U500, when I press the power on button of the projector must enter, there is a kind of noise as the HD tries to start, then everything goes off, then about 5 seconds later turn it on again and he's trying to start again, with the same result, it might take for me to leave power.

    All ideas, took out the battery and power left and it's still there, held the power button for a minute to reset the motherboard, but nothing.

  • Satellite Pro 6100 will not turn on - flashing LED

Then I bought a second Geforce but the same error code! So I all exchanged but the processor and I'm ascendant to buy a second to test or do you know Whata´s evil?
    I don't think that the new parts are broken!

    The error, the code of the orange Led is 01000011 or short, long, short, short, short, short, long, long and I did not see what maybe the problem!

    Sorry for my broken English I come from Germany!
    Hope for answers and greetings

    Hello

    How do you know what the flashing of led said you? You are a sort of technician? How can you know that the "blink" (long, short) are 0 and 1.
    Do you know how to assemble the circuit board and don't you know that the things you have take care? Who PCB´s that you have exchanged?
    You said:

    Hand and VGA

    but the powerpcb too? And how do you know that the PCB´s are ok? Because why someone is selling you that with the 'work' of description?

    Would appreciate some feedback from you

  • Satellite Pro L10 will not start the system

    Hello!

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro L10, which won't work for some reason any.

    The last time that I used it, it worked perfectly fine, but now all I get is a black filtered message on "windows starts do not successfully»

    It indicates that the computer is not responding and asked me to choose one of the five options - safe mode, safe mode with network, security mode command, last known configuration, prompt or start windows normally.

    There is also a 30 second countdown if I do nothing the portable samekh automatically.
    It is, none of these things work.

    Everything that happens with any option is to a thought very much time on things, then it goes to a black screen with a time/processing bar downstairs, then when that ends it turns itself off, samekh, mw windows page shows (with f2 and f4/f10? options) and the process is repeated.

    He did about 50 times now and still nothing.
    I tried the command ctrl/alt/del, I tried to turn if off and try again, I even opened the f options but I don't know enough about computers to do more.

    Help, please!

    If possible I would like to get the computer on long enough to verify what documents I have on this subject before I can back up (if necessary) and restore it to the factory settings (as I predicted), or if this is not possible, I do not think that there is a lot to lose in this respect in any case, am prepared to take it all back to factory if necessary. I have all necessary installation CD and manuals to go with.

    hope this makes sense and I gave you all you need to know.

    Thanks, B

    It seems that the laptop is not able to boot the system, but I m not quite sure if it s because of the defective system or HARD drive corruption.
    If it s just a system problem, the installation of the new Windows operating system should help you to get it resolved.

    In case the HARD disk is defective, you need to replace the HARD drive and reinstall the system.

  • My new Satellite Pro L300 will not work

    I bought a new Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 on eBay. I connected all the cables according to the installation guide. At first he asked my details, then I logged in and it went to a pages where he says he was preparing. Then I was sent to the newspaper in the section, and the same page appeared saying that he was preparing.

    After what happens about 5 times, he went to a black screen where the only thing I could see was my mouse cursor.

    I closed and restarted, I tried to go into the settings using F12. I was not able to work at all, no matter what I do.
    Unfortunately, I don't have a CD of the OS, but it was announced as having Vista as OS and have Microsoft Office Suite on him as a built-in wireless modem, so it was supposed to be ready just to turn it on. Well I can't even turn it on.

    What should I do? How should I do?

    At first, I must say that F12 has nothing to do with all the settings.
    At this point, I recommend using the new operating system installation using the HDD recovery procedure.
    How to proceed as a result of this document, you can find > http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm

    When the OS is installed and started up properly first thing you need to do is to create the disc of recovery facilities. "You can do it using preinstalled" Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator. The shortcut is placed on the desktop.
