Tecra 9100 ' NMI: channel check "BSOD".

My laptop two years Tecra 9100 1.7 Mhz computer faithful began to get a very regular blue screen of death. This occurs only when it is running on battery power and the error message is:

Hardware malfunction

NMI: Channel check / IOCHECK.

Does so within approximately 30 seconds 2 minutes of running on battery power.

I was hoping that it was a problem with corruption of driver so I ve completely flattened the thing on day 1 with a full drive reinstall with 'the CD ROM product development' and the problem persists.

The battery should t be worn, as I have little use, I even kept it out of the machine to avoid wear out that I almost never need to use the machine in a mobile context, i.e. There is a practically new battery! It's only in the past month (since I got wireless broadband) I used the battery at all.

Just to remind the laptop is totally stable on the sector and never blue no screening while tension in this way. The problem occurs only when powered by a battery. I flashed the Bios up to v1.6 v1.5 with no effect. The problem occurs with a completely new install from the CD ROM recovery and also when it is fully configured with XP SP2 and all the XP2 post updates.

Anyone any idea what's causing this error? Any diagnosis I could do?

Thank you very much.

Tony.

Hi Tony

Sorry, but I have bad news for you. This message occurs if there is a problem with the main Board. I can't say exactly what it can be, but I think that some piece of hardware is not recognized correctly.

Contact the Service partner in your country and Tony let check the laptop.

  • TECRA 9100 battery problem

    Similar experiences to mine, please?

    After using no not my Tecra for some time (about 3 months). He was once again the charger for more than 24 hours and I'm now done with the original problem, I had the last time I used the Tecra, several months ago! The problem is, I think, only related to the tent to use it on battery, as follows:

    At the start of the machine of 'cold', after passing the request of 'password' screen, it goes straight to a "small blue screen", which includes the message:

    Hardware malfunction

    Call your provider of support material

    NMI: channel check / IOCHK

    The system stopped *.

    A little more information, I found that I can actually 'blue screen' situation - turn off not having don't no need to remove it battery that I first thought - and if I get the power cable then everything starts up well and seems to work normally. If I then remove the power cable (leaving the laundry to run on battery only) the small blue screen and same message reappears.

    Yet once which seems to indicate a battery problem, I guess?

    Has anyone else had a similar experience?

    Hello

    Windows may indicate a fundamental error messages only when material occurrence malfunction, so that the elimination of the errors can be difficult for equipment problems. Most of the problems of material step in connection with the motherboard, the main memory on a motherboard or adapter or the stamp on a motherboard or adapter.

    On this path, it is not easy to say what may be the problem. I don't know how old is the unit, but if the unit is still under warranty I advice you contact service partner chartered. I'm sure they can find what may be the cause of this problem.

  • Tecra 9100: Media Test failure - check cable then turns off

    Hello

    I have a Tecra 9100 and I got it at low cost and hoping to make it work for my son to do his homework on but its got a problem.

    First he came without a hard drive (on order) then when I turn it on I get + media test check the cable failure then it stops.
    I ve disabled boot from LAN and set the default Bios and tried to boot from the CD drive that starts to install ok (I know he won t get far because I ve without HARD drive)

    But he died just completely sometimes in the beginning, sometimes at half way.

    One can shed some light on the subject.

    Thanks rob

    Maybe its overheating? Search for dust in the radiator. You can blow the dust using a can of compressed air.

    Also test the memory. You can get memtest www.memtest.org and put it on a floppy disk or a CD.

  • Tecra 9100 comes on intermittently and turns off after 10-15 seconds

    Referring to a Toshiba Tecra 9100, model No.: PT910E-602SF-FR

    The power button normally doesn't light up at all, even if sometimes it starts normally, starts to load windows, then always turns off after 5 to 15 seconds in any case.

    It always requires the batteries very well, but it won t turn on. I ve checked the ram, hard drive and I re - set the default bios - nothing prevents to cut if you can get it to turn on.

    Any ideas what could be the problem? Any help appreciated, it s the second time I had - the same problem the last time!

    Thank you

    Hey,.

    Have you already tried to clean the fan? Maybe a lot of dust blocking the fan for laptop can start t, and then turns off itself due to a higher temperature. It would be interesting to try to clean it.

    But in my opinion, you've done everything you can do, and it looks like a malfunction of the motherboard. If cleaning using fan doesn t I think the motherboard is faulty or something else. If you are familiar with the disassembly of the laptop, you can try to fix it yourself with second hand parts. Otherwise it s time for a new laptop I think

  • Re: Tecra 9100 - new HARD drive is not detected

    I have a Toshiba Harddisk provide a Tecra 9100. Checking the BIOS it shows "Enhanced IDE", but you are trying to boot from the disc does not work HARD. Even trying to install a new operating system present, that the HARD drive is not detected.
    From the laptop is also very long.
    Any idea?

    Your new HARD drive is larger than 120 GB? The HARD disk controller supports the 28-bit LBA and large drives as 120 GB will not be recognized by the BIOS.

    What you mean with Enhanced IDE? The BIOS recognizes the new HARD drive with model number?

  • Tecra 9100 stopped after one hour of work

    I bought a Tecra 9100 and he stopped after an hour of work or less like frozen.
    Using the keyboard or the mouse to restart did not work.
    I have to use the power button to shut down and restart after stop down.
    I tried to reinstall windows xp and change the ram, but still the same problem.

    Thank you very much!!

    Hello

    How long have you used the laptop?
    Eventually the temperature inside the laptop could be responsible for these issues of freezing. A similar problem occurred on my laptop. He frisottés due to overheating.
    I just cleaned the fans and cooling grids modules with the vacuum cleaner and the problem disappeared.

    I think you should also check the cooling modules and try to clean it carefully.

  • Re: Tecra 9100 - Jaunty remix or office?

    Hello

    I'm waiting for delivery of a second hand Tecra 9100. Intend to put on that Jaunty.

    Someone at - it advice? And I use the remix or the flavor of office?

    Thank you

    Hello.

    I'm glad to hear that you made such a choice. In fact, Jaunty Remix is still in a test phase, this does not mean all material books are well supported, and secondly, it might be a bit buggy. You can check this page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/Machines/Netbooks for laptops support material which has been tested on the Remix edition. If you like fun, you can give it a try and write a report to the Ubuntu team, if it worked or didn't work and what questions you had, which will certainly accelerate the rate towards releasing the complete edition of Jaunty Remix. If you don't like a lot of the headaches, just install Ubuntu classic (Desktop edition).

    See you soon!

  • Tecra 9100: Headset does not work

    My Tecra 9100, headphone connector does not work. Do the good internal speaker. If I plug in headphones or external speakers, the interns are being extinguished, but external devices, I don't hear anything.

    My sound card is generally, I thought that there could be a chance to solve the problem simply say - and reconnect wire/Council of the front-end connectors to the sound card... but I never did any technichal stuff in a Tecra, so it would be nice if someone could give me feedback where and how to open it, and if it's still a chance to solve my problem.

    Hello

    If you can hear the sound from the internal speakers as well as the sound card works correctly.
    In your case I recommend you first check the audio settings in the audio and audio devices you can find in the control panel.
    Check all THE audio controllers.

  • Tecra 9100 - Ethernet is declining

    Hello

    I have Toshiba Tecra 9100 that I used to connect my ps3 to wireless internet. For some reason my Tecra is down the Ethernet of the ps3, the strange thing is if I turn the laptop off the battery only there is no problem but as soon as I plug I save it starts to give up the connection again.

    Any body know what is the problem?

    Hello

    To be honest, I don't have a specific answer to your question, but maybe you should try to install the latest drivers LAN and WLAN. Also check the properties of the device and make sure that all power saving settings are defined to the maximum level.

    In Toshiba surveillance tool when the laptop is connected to the power supply running set everything up.
    Intel Speedstep option implemented.

    I hope this will help.
