  Hi Fernan,

  Please check the following URL for detailed instructions on dismantling a Satellite A105 which I believe is that the American version of the A100 should be very similar.

• Satellite A100-TA7 hangs at POST after BIOS update

  Kind of tech swavy, I know that my chances are very low to solve this but this is.

  I decided to update the BIOS on my laptop Toshiba Satellite A100-TA7(PSAA8C-TA702C) to the latest version available (6.00).

  I did it because I've heard of people have better luck doing their job of FN keys on linux with the latest BIOS.
  The installation is completed normally (went through all the steps, wrote to all 21 blocks) without any error, but after the reboot, I noticed that it is now displayed at the Toshiba logo screen.

  The blue progress bar moves twice but got caught then about 1/3 of the way through.
  To see how bad the damage was, I Press esc at the beginning of the POST and saw that it gives me the right Version of the BIOS (6.00).

  He also told me that "no TPM or TPM has problem" and "2039 M RAM Passed system."
  It then displays the message "Press to enter SETUP" (which makes the message disappears, but otherwise doesn't do anything.

  If I press f2 during the Toshiba logo screen, it replaces the message at the bottom with "Please wait" and nothing happens even after an hour of waiting.
  (Which makes sense, because before the bar blue everything would load before entering the CMOS settings). The thing is that the BIOS is not really "freeze", it gets stuck just at a specific place (I know because I can press F2 even after an hour of waiting and the laptop meets it by displaying "Please Wait".)

  Someone at - it no more things I could try? Thank you

  It of very long history and it does not sound good

  > I decided to update the BIOS on my laptop Toshiba Satellite A100-TA7 (PSAA8C-TA702C) to the latest version available (6.00).
  I wonder about your BIOS version that I know, that the laptop series is designed for the Canadian market. It s a Canadian series and the BIOS or drivers should be downloaded from the Canadian site of Toshiba!
  Bad BIOS could cause issues like this it describes your message above!

  > I did it because I've heard of people have better luck doing their job of FN keys on Linux with the latest BIOS.
  Keys FN Toshiba need driver Toshiba and it turns out that Toshiba driver pages don t offer the drivers for Linux distributions, so I put t believe in the story spread by any people.

  I don t want to write a long story, so I would cut this now;
  Is that something was happening during the BIOS update process.
  Either you have used a procedure to update the BIOS or wring wrong and so the laptop can not pass the MESSAGE

  You will need to contact the local ASP to solve this problem, maybe you're a lucky guy and the technician should Flash the ROM module but in the worst cases, your motherboard is damage and must be replaced. :(

  Good luck

• How long should the battery last in a Satellite A300D

  Can someone let me know how long my battery should last a Satellite A300D?
  It has been in my possession the two days of the new?

  Hello

  First of all, you know that a lifetime battery changing and depends on the use of the laptop.
  So, if you scale DVD or / and game play the battery needed to dump a lot faster than the execution of some common applications like Word, IE, etc.

  In addition, there are different batteries with different specifications, as the battery 6 cells needed to dump as soon as a battery 9 cells.
  That is why it s is not easy to say how long a battery should last, but usually you can use the laptop with battery for about 1.5 hours

  See you soon

• How can I install the Microsoft BT on Satellite A100 battery?

  How to install Microsoft Bluetooth Stack?
  I tried the way it is described in the readme file:
  Uninstall Toshiba Stack, reboot, install Bluetooth Monitor 2 (I copy the files needed to C:\Toshiba\MS_Bluetooth), restart.
  After that, windows wants to install Toshiba RFBUS for which I have no drivers.
  There is no way to enter the windows bluetooth [not this control in the Options panel] settings.

  It does not work!

  Hello

  DeepBlue is quite right. All Satellite A100 units are not delivered with BT on board. Please see the bottom of your laptop. If BT is available you will find a small stick of BT.

  Good bye

• On battery power my Satellite A100-233 runs only 1 hour

  Hello

  I would like to know if it is normal that the battery lasts 1 hour. Everything I do is either go on the internet or use word doc or power point presentation. I can't watch a dvd without the use of power due to the battery. I would also like to know what battery normally comes with the Satellite A100-233.

  Hello

  It's not easy to say how long the laptop will only work with the battery power.
  Battery working time depends on the use of the laptop!
  In your case I guess the laptop should run about 1h30min 1h15min

  You Satellite A100-233 belongs to the series of PSAA8E. Am I wrong?
  Well, this series was delivered with a 4000mAh battery. As far as I know the price part number indicated PA3399U-2BRS PA3399U-2BAS

  Anyway the 4000mAh batteries are standard and are not very powerful.
  If you want to run the notebook much more on battery I advise to use the batteries as:

  Battery pack high capacity PA3400U-1BRS (Li-ion, 12 cells, 8600mAh)
  PA3478U-1BRS extended capacity battery (Li-ion, 6000mAh, 9-cell)

• Need to buy a new battery for a satellite A100 - don't know which!

  Hello

  My Satellite A100 laptop battery is dead... He has for the last year showed signs of life slowly reduce.
  But I can't for the life of understand me which battery to buy on the section of devices of websites of Toshiba under Power Options.
  All Advisor, welcome.

  Also my laptop has started to become extraordinarily hot - who would have something to do with the life of the battery is reduced?

  Concerning
  RAM

  You can find the model number of your battery and buy the same model. My Toshiba A100-383 battery has this model number: PA3399U-2BRS, I don't know if yours has this number too.

  The heat is a big problem for Li - ion batteries. In any case, you should check if your laptop temperature is abnormal (maybe a fan does not work or it is dirty) because it can affect other components.

• The battery is not satellite A105-s4364

  I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite A105-s4364 (winXP) year. 6 months later, my battery won't charge and no power at all. I even if the battery is bad, so I just use my a/c. 2 months later, I bought a new battery (it has 40% of the power when I buy).

  So I install the new battery and the battery light on, I am that everything will be ok. 4 hours later, I disconnect the a/c, the a/c & battery light flashing and still says 40% of the battery power. This means that only a not charge my battery.

  So I went to the Web from Toshiba site, they said the need to update the Bios to correct the problems. So I installed the new Bios software. But it does not solve my pc.

  Still does not and can not turn on my pc with battery, that means it will not turn on if I just plug the a/c (before no need to turn any time with battery).

  What I do now, first install my battery, the power light and connect the a/c, but the light will be off about 2 seconds, so I need to plug the a/c in 2 sec.
  The very bad, it is does not charge my battery, but my pc needs the battery to turn on and now the battery has only 11% of the power.

  I don't know anyone use Toshiba, so nobody can't help me to charge the battery.
  Anyone know how to fix or has the same happen b4?
  Very needing help here, hope you guys understand what I have said here.

  Thank you very much!

  Hello

  > 2 months later, I bought a new battery (it has 40% of the power when I buy).
  It's very strange because of my knowledge, the new battery must be completely empty.
  In any case, according to the details in your ad, I think supply electronic books could malfunction.

  It's very strange:
  > What I do now, first install my battery, the power light and connect the a/c, but the light will be off about 2 seconds, so I need to plug the a/c in 2 sec. The very bad, it is does not charge my battery, but my pc needs the battery to turn on and now the battery has only 11% of the power.
  Usually, you should be able to turn on the laptop using the AC adapter only.
  The battery should t be necessary and you should be able to use the laptop without the battery also.

  I think that the battery and the adapter must be checked first place and if the two parties would be authorized technician must check the electronic power supply.

  Sorry, but that's all I can suggest at this time.

• Issue of the upgrade to Vista - Satellite A100 (PSAA9)

  Hello.
  Well, I think to upgrade to windows vista from my laptop (Toshiba Satellite A100 (PSAA9)). I was researching (little) on the drivers and hardware compatibility with vista, and it seems that if I update now, I can't find major problems. Is this true?
  I ask because when I was looking for drivers for vista, I found many (and some of those that exist, I can't download them!) But even without a driver, vista will recognize and install drivers 'default' for the material of my laptop? Can someone answer this with some?
  My major concern is connectivity: lan and wireless! I'll be able to install the hardware drivers to operate these two things?

  Thank you very much to all those who somehow tries to help with these issues!
  Good bye.

  Hello

  I upgraded my and installed all the drivers from the card reader SD me just used for XP drivers and they worked very well. There are a lot of vista drivers now available for this model, although I am having trouble with the value added package to allow me to use the function keys and access keys.

  Apart from that, I had no other problems!

  Good luck... Let me know if value-added package that works for you, seems to be working for some but not for others.

  See you soon

• BSOD crash to the device USB unplug - Satellite A100

  Hello world

  On my new Toshiba Satellite A100 laptop right out of the box (pre-installed Windows XP MCE), I installed a USB device (a Line 6 POD XT live guitar amp modeling unit). I used the latest drivers available. The instrument is duly recognized and properly installed. I can use it properly.

  Only when I unplug it, or simply turn off... bang! blue screen crash. There is no icon 'Remove hardware safely' available, since it is not a unit of storage memory. Also, it used to work just fine (plug/unplug) on my previous laptop satellite I just replaced.
  Something with media center edition?

  Thanks in advance for your messages.
  Please help me!

  Hello

  Don t think that it s something wrong with MCE, but you know; nothing is impossible.
  The blue screen of death appears mainly due to hardware failure or serious software compatibility issues.

  Try to update the BIOS. Maybe that changes anything.
  Alternatively, you can try to disable the function of the USB ports to save energy. You can do this in the properties of the USB port

  Additional I would recommend contacting the manufacturing of USB device support.
  Maybe these disorders are known for guys

• How to replace the battery CMOS on Satellite A30 504?

  I have big problems with my satellite A30 504... it does'nt see the HARD disk at startup, my only solution was to press the power button for many times so far.

  My HARD drive is ok so I think that the problem comes from the cmos battery, but I do not know how to find out what type it is and how to replace.

  (PS. Sorry my English, I'm not an English speaker)

  Hi Adrian

  Battery CMOS is always placed in an uncomfortable position and to swap the battery of the device must be removed. If you didn t done this before please don t do this alone. One small mistake and you can damage a plastic cover of the unit.

  I recommend contacting the service and allow them to do this for you. It costs a little, but you will be sure it will be done on the professional track. When the unit is disassembled it can also be cleaned of dust.

  Back to HARD drive: how you know HDD is not faulty?

• What is the recovery CD contain - Satellite A100-847

  Hello guys

  I had a few questions on the recovery CD:

  1. what the recovery CD contain? and the other CD, which is called the media something?

  2 - has Windows inside? So can I format my PC to use it? And where can I find the product key (windows key)

  3. what happens if I wanted to use the CD without formatting? etc., install the software?

  Sorry to ask too but my laptop started to bother me. Just FYI, my laptop is satellite A100-847

  Hello

  I'll try to answer your question.

  1 recovery media contains recovery image. Recovery image is a kind of package that contains the operating system, all necessary drivers, Toshiba tools and utilities and some other software like WinDVD or Norton antivir application. Media, that something is not known to me. Perhaps the exact description can help.

  2 Yes there the Windows operating system. Yes, you can format your laptop to use it. You don't need a product key. Just install it.

  3 I don't know what you mean. The fact is that HARD drive will be formatted before you start the installation of recovery. Make sure that all your important data are saved on an external device.

• How can I disable the battery on my Satellite L50 - B - 1 HM?

  Hi friends,

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L50 - B - 1 HM. In this model, the battery may not be withdrawn. I would like to know if I can turn off the battery in order to preserve the life of it.

  Please help me with this question. It is important for me :)

  Thanks in advance.

  Hi Marta

  Unfortunately, this option is not available and you can't do that. to be honest I understand, but imagine you have an important work on your machine and suddenly power is interrupted for any reason any (disabled battery). In this case, you could lose your work.

  In this case the battery is a kind of backup power.
  Another thing is that the batteries used on laptops of today are not the same that we had 15 years before.
  Don't think about it and have a fun with your machine. ;)
