Satellite U series: Question about bypassing the battery when connected on AC

Hi, I am a bit newbie to PC Toshiba laptop (series U) and I was wondering if my laptop has this feature where it bypasses the battery when it is fully charged and the power supply cable is connected?
I see the battery blue led is on even when it is fully charged and the power is connected, it means that my computer is still using the battery?

I'm running a lot and I will not waste my battery life.
Thanks for any comments.

Hello

Congratulations on your new machine, I understand that worried you´re for your battery life. I was scared too, but a lot of people here in the forum told me that, in each new machine for many years (i.e. about 6 to 9 years) almost every laptop has an electronic charge that regulates the process of charge of the battery.

Don t worry, if your battery is fully charged, the built-in charging circuit is a special State that is as "cool cool" to maintain your battery and to protect the battery.
S better to keep the battery in the machine then removing it.

Welcome them

  • Satellite A500 - Remove the battery when connected to the network?

    Hello

    I bought a new Satellite 500 and I would use it as much as possible. I'm not sure the stage of development of this battery. Should I remove the battery when I use the laptop at all times with the net supply?
    Or this does not damage the battery longer years yet there is, or is the problem of the destruction of the battery because of the heat and being reloaded frequently persists?

    I'm sorry if I could post to redundantly, but it is difficult to search for information, since I'm not a native speaker.
    I encourage you just for a small tip for a related thread if available.

    Thank you very much!

  • Question about replacing the battery in Aspire E15 E5 - 574 G

    So, I bought an Aspire E 15 E5 - 574G from newegg because I need a new laptop and did not want to spend a lot of money. What never occurred to me until after that I paid because it was the battery was replaceable, further research after that newegg delivered to me, I discovered that it wasn't. I wonder if someone could tell me if the battery goes bad can I send the computer to acer and I got the fixed battery or I'll essentially having to buy a new laptop when he dies. I need a laptop with a battery that is replaceable, because I handle my machine a lot, if the battery is really not replaceable reliable, so I was wondering if I should ship the computer to newegg a refund and look for a computer acer laptop with a battery that I can replace.

  • Satellite A100-599 - question about updating the display driver

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A100-599 with a NVIDIA 7600go graphics card and I like most of you Bioshock game crashes because of some problems with the graphic card drivers, no pb... Meanwhile, NVIDIA has released some new patches for the Forceware and after I double checked the database of the Toshiba driver support I've seen a new version in the list of display driver for WinXp.

    One of them seems to be 13/09/2007. I have downloaded the drivers, installed them and then I checked the details of the driver in the Device Manager list and to my surprise the details say that the drivers are since 2006. I reinstalled the drivers and the same thing appeared. I checked the XML that was in archive of drivers and surprise... the drivers really are the 'old' of 2006. So my question is this: you have the display drivers for my model that work for Bioshock :D

    Best regards, Marian

    I Don t know if we. I think it would be took a long while to ask every single user: Hey, you have a few drivers for blackmodjo? Ah, come on, please. Some of them... ;)

    No, I have a better idea. It s like to cook a meal. Ingredients: DriverCleaner Pro and the www.laptopvideo2go.com site and... your your your TAAA patience

    To get a good 'bio' meal shocked just follow this recipe:

    Reach
    http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/
    read before doing anything (YES, even before you continue to BREATHE) the FAQ section on this site (RECOMMENDEDRECOMMENDEDRECOMMENDED)
    and then download the drivers. Do it, Yes...

    Then download drivercleaner by searching on www.google.com and THEN read their manual before doing anything else (Ok, you can continue to breathe..)
    After reading the manual you will be something like:

    1. program start, do something, restart the machine
    2. start in safe mode, from this program, deleting... yadayadayada
    3. install the new driver
    3. reading of Bioshock
    4...
    5. No... 6 thank. me and give me your first born... ;)

    So by cutting about 40% of my humorous things and following the constructive technical instructions from me, you will be able to play bioshock.

    Welcomes :)

  • Satellite P500-12F - Question about installing the drivers

    Have recently bought a new P500 Satellite 12F and I am very happy with it. This PC came only came on the market on 29 Oct. I decided this pilot site updates, bios, etc. and was surprised to find a few tens of individuals in the list.

    When I rang Toshiba support he told me don't bother to install as there may be a danger and if if its ok market don't bother!

    I would like a second opinion please.

    Satellite P500 is newer model comes with the latest drivers, tools and utilities for Toshiba laptop.
    It turns out that the Toshiba doesn't offer updates every month and, in my opinion, you don't need any update to date.

    I guess that your series of satellites well and without some serious software problems. So, touch of an operating system and be happy with your new toy.

  • Satellite A60-106: Question about updating the BIOS and the BIOS Flash

    If this isn't the case, where I could get a file to Flash BIOS for satellite A60-106?

    Hello

    Sorry, but you question is a bit confusing.

  • Satellite A50 543: Questions about upgrading the HARD drive

    I'm looking to upgrade the internal hard disk on my A50 543 to 100 GB at 7200 RPM. The original drive is a Fujitsu 60GM 4200. I have found no information on the Internet on other readers line CMS that have been tested and found compatible with the A50. I need at least 5400 RPM or 7200 RPM to edit video.

    Suppliers meet usually only with so many laptops on the market, they cannot test each hard drive with any laptop, but can tell if it is compatible with the specifications of the computer and the hard disk specifications and are so confident that their information is accurate that they offer a money back guarantee (excluding shipping costs)

    My question is
    (1) how can I be sure that the drive will work (considering the high international shipping costs) to 100%?

    (2) none of the contributors to this forum may recommend a hard drive internal 5400 RPM or more it has installed on the same model specification?

    Thank you. You are my last hope

    Best regards
    Vince

    Hello

    If you want to be 100% sure that works on your HARD drive, so I think the best way is to contact the after-sales Service of Toshiba partner. Here, you can order all the devices and parts compatible and supported.
    I also found these Toshiba hard disks that must be compatible:
    HDD2187B 20 GB 4 200
    HDD2190B 40 GB 4 200
    HDD2193 40 GB 5 400
    HDD2189B 60 GB 4 200
    HDD2194 60 GB 5 400
    HDD2188B 80 GB 4 200
    80 GB 5 400 HDD2191

    In this case, you can use a disk HARD of GB 5 400 80 but I put t found no information about 100 GB of HARD drive.

    Hello

    I found the same information, but I put t think you can use 4 hours. My opinion is that you can use it two hours. I recommend to set the CPU at a lower level and also check other settings like the brightness of the screen. If you set all these lower-level settings, you can save useful energy and work for long periods.

  • Satellite Pro L10: Question about saving the files on a CD

    Please can someone tell me how I can save a typed document (produced in Word or similar) on the CD? I don't have a floppy drive on my satellite pro L10 portable. Have 'saved' music using the immediate recording before, but now need to record your actual work on the hard disk for transport to a pc with access to a printer.

    When I tried it told me incorrect function, contact administrator (that's me!) I tried CD - R and CD - RW discs and neither would not let me save the file on it. would be grateful for any advice regarding this.

    Thank you

    Hi Roy,

    First of all, you will ned to ensure that you have enabled logging on oprical drive you. For this a right-click on the CD-ROM in my computer icon and then selecting "properties-> recording. Make sure that "Enable CD writing on this drive" is checked.

    Once you have done the above, you can simply drag the documents that you want to copy on the CD-ROM icon in my computer.

    Note that the burning process does not happen immediately. Windows caches the files to be placed on your hard drive first and then you can burn all documents cached only once.

    Alternatively, you may find that some third-party software has been bundled with your portable computer, which performs a similar function the standard Windows CD burn software.

    Kind regards

    Hello

    Upgrading the CPU is a bit tricky on laptops and more often than not desirable and is not possible.
    After the CPU overheating upgrade, it would be possible that don t cooling modules are working properly and the laptop.
    Why? Well well, the CPU new and stronger products, more heat and the temperature would be Monte. The fan table that is stored in the BIOS will not correspond with the new CPU and the cooling fans would not correctly work.
    In addition, upgrading CPU will void your warranty! It's very risky!

    Anyway, looks like you certainly want to upgrade the processor?
    So I would check the chipset installed on your laptop.
    Try to know the details of the chipset and Intel page for compatible processors research!

  • Satellite L500-1UU - disconnect the battery when it is connected to the AC adapter / CC

    Hello world

    I have purshaced new Toshiba Satellite L500-1UU
    CPU: Intel (r) Core i3 CPU M330 2.13 GHz
    Physical memory: 4096MB RAM
    Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 6.1.7600

    My question is: remove the battery when I use my computer laptop while its connected to the AC adapter would be wise or not? This would increase or decrease the life of the battery, or it will not affect anything?

    Is i3 processors have a technique of centrino disconnect battery power whent, it is fully charged?

    What do you think of this?

    Hi Khaild Essam,

    I agree with Akuma. There is no problem, remove the battery when the AC/DC adapter is connected. If you can do it. In addition the battery charge will be stopped if it s at full charge. The laptop consumes energy to AC/DC adapter only.

    If you remove the battery and work with AC/DC adapter only, the battery life will be improved a little because it s not in its use.

  • C50D-A-12R satellite does not power up if the battery connected

    Hello!!!

    I am writing this message cause I was using my laptop and sudenlly it shuts. At first, I didn't know why, I tried to turn it on by pressing the botton, but I failed. Then, I thought I had the battery charger unplugged, but it wasn't. After a few minutes I took the battery and connect the charger, then my laptop run.

    I spend a few hours searching on the Web sites about problems with the battery charger o, and I find that my laptop doesn't recognize the battery cause of pilots o something like this, so I ASK FOR HELP!
    Now, I can only use my laptop if one take out the battery and plug the charger.

    If anyone knows what might happened to my laptop, Please HELP.

    I forgot, my laptop is a Toshiba Satellite C50D-A-12R.

    P.D. sorry my English, I'm from the Spain and several years ago, I finally study English.

    In General, the laptop should work fine in connection with and without the battery.
    The unit should turn on if the battery is removed but connected to the power adapter.

    Also if the battery is connected and worn, the unit should operate without the power adapter connected.
    So what is wrong here? To be honest, I don't think there could be some sort of driver but first of all problems that you should try to recover the laptop to factory settings just to check if the device works by using the preinstalled Toshiba OS and settings.

    If the device does not work properly even after the recovery process, I recommend checking the functionality of the laptop as part of the NEW pile of good work.

    Your device is still covered by the warranty?
    If so, you should communicate with the Toshiba ASP because in case of hardware problems, ASP you should fix free device...

    No, the only reason would be if you use the laptop on the sector for a long time, like a month or more, then drain the battery in 30-40%, and remove, store in a cool place.
