  • Battery light is steady amber the Satellite

    Hi all

    I recently had to change my laptop power adapter because it has stopped working. I was able to control the volume of the percentage out of her, and it was almost 0.

    However when I plug the new adapter/charger and turn on the laptop, it keeps permanently turned off as it loads Windows applications. I tried to put on with the battery disconnected, but it flashes the light output for fractions of a second and it remains off.

    The status of lights when the connection from the laptop to the power supply are:
    -Power led: FLASHING WHITE
    -Battery light: AMBER CONSTANT

    Any help with this will be appreciated.

    Kind regards

  • The orange battery light flashing rapidly

    Unfortunately I can not describe the problem properly, because I keep having problems with the filter of the Commission.

    Short version:
    I have a Toshiba Satellite 2800-300 and since yesterday, battery light flashes orange. Faster than it usually does when the battery is low. Change the battery, charger and power socket did not help. Someone has encountered this problem before? What is it?

    I took the battery now and turn the laptop without it. Is this right? I realize that I must go to the Service Center, but this is no option at the moment so I just want to know what is happening and if it is harmful to the operation of my laptop in this State.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    First of all, you can use your laptop without battery until you find the right solution for this problem. Believe me I do the same thing if I use my camera at home. I remove the battery in the hope that maybe he can save the life of the battery.

    It is not easy to give explanations on this path because it will be interesting to see what happened exactly, but AFAIK if there is no option to boot the device and if the battery orange flashing, it may be a malfunction of the equipment.

    If there is an excessive flashing there may be some malfunction of the equipment. If the power supply microcontroller detects an error lamp DC IN sends a blink code. Can you please tell me how exactly it flashes? Are there different intervals (short, long)?

    Hello

    Have you noticed this problem since the first day of purchase?
    Theoretically, it could be possible that your battery begins to malfunction
    On the other hand, an electrical problem could also be possible

    However, try this:
    Remove the battery and the AC adapter. Then press and hold button power 30 sec long.
    Then insert the battery and plug AC adapter still does that help?

    By the way: this is the BIOS updated? If this isn't the case, perform an update.

  • Satellite 1800-100: battery light is still orange flashing, not charging

    Hello
    I have a S1800 Satellite laptop series and I used it for a long time. But yesterday, I'm very disappointed by a strange event. Now I have no solution, please help...

    Situation: While my laptop was working in battery mode (no air-con plugged), I was copying some files from my HARD drive, then suddenly portable inside out, I thought it happened because the accusation was over and I plugged adapter to load as usual, but NO charge!

    Battery light FLASHES with the orange color and not charging, when the AC adapter is connected, the laptop works normal without error but if I unplug the AC adapter, the laptop turns off immediately. This shows that even though it is plugged in for 6 hours, but without costs as I said there is no advance fees.

    I got this new situation and my local Toshiba service rejected my request due to the old mode of my laptop.

    My last chance is here

    Help, please.

    Best regards...

    Hello

    Well, if the battery LED blinks orange indicating a low battery charge.
    If the led blinks during the adapter is plugged, so in my opinion, the battery cannot be charged. Maybe the battery is dead. This is possible because you can recharge the battery, about 500 times. After this period, the battery will lose performance and dead.

  • The battery light flashes slowly when computer is off (G6 computer 2011sa) portable

    HP Pavilion 2011sa G6

    Windows 7 64 bit

    The laptop is brand new, I got it for a week.

    This seems to happen when the battery is low, but not to the level of criticism. Initially, I notice the battery light is white for about 30 seconds and then off for 30 seconds and repeat - what happens when the computer is turned off. I turn on the computer and the battery meter shows 29% and a ridiculous time, 43hrs 29minutes. Previously, he said 127hrs. But it seems to be frozen at this value. The battery light is now flashing white and turn off more quickly. Finally the computer just turns off without warning. After recharging the battery meter displays a time in more realistic and there seems to be no problem.

    Go to Device Manager. Expand the device Batteries and right-click on the "'ACPI control method-Microsoft compatible battery ' and select uninstall." Now, do a right-click any device and select ""find the hardware changes " option." Your operating system must be reinstalled a clean copy of the ACPI Microsoft-compatible remote control battery method while parsing. Now, restart your laptop.

    Please post here your positives or negatives in your thread, while others may have of your experience with this method.

  • HP 8710W (p/n: GT648PA #ABG): 8710W does not start - the battery light flashes orange 7 times then 1 green.

    Troubleshooting done so far: I removed (even the RTC) battery, hard drive and memory. Hold the power button for 30 sec.

    When I re - install the battery and press the power button, it flashes 7 times orange, and then Green 1. Same thing happens with or without the power supply is connected.

    The laptop does well (no fan, no disc doesn't sound etc.) and the screen stays off (i.e. no splash screen).

    I thought it was a dead battery, as it was 8 + years, so bought a new replacement. Unfortunately, there no fixed and I still have the same problems with the new battery.

    How to decode what mean hot flashes?

    What else can we test it before I bin the laptop? I would have preferred not to do so as he has been a full rock performer and the 17 "display is fantastic as a desktop replacement.

    Any suggestion is appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Unfortunately, this seems to be a motherboard problem. After eight years of service, it is left for a digital camera never never land.

    Unfortunately, it's time to bin and source of a replacement book.

    You can retrieve data from the hard drive using a cable or a drive enclosure hard usb 2.5 ".

    I understand your disappointment. Workstations are portable very special and very expensive to replace.

  • Satellite M100 - no battery light

    Hello

    My Satellite M100 has a problem with the power. He has started about a month ago, when my computer turns off suddenly, and the power light is the only one left on, no battery light. The problem seemed to disappear, but recently the gaming laptop upward again. It stops randomly, or the power led will Flash quickly. And the battery light will turn on for half a second and turn off.

    Any ideas, thanks in advance
    Baldan11

    > It shuts down randomly, or the power led will Flash quickly. And the battery light will turn on for half a second and turn off.
    Very strange but sounds like something wrong with the electronic power supply on the motherboard.
    If the power led starts flashing then that would mean that a material error has been detected on the motherboard

    But just a question;
    Are you able to use the laptop connected only to battery or only adapter?
    Problems of charging the battery?

  • Satellite L300 is dead - the battery light blinks orange 6 times

    Does anyone know what was the cause of this yellow flashing light?
    I have the same problem with a Satellite L300.

    Battery light flashes orange 6 times when I press the power button and nothing else happens. Dead laptop.
    I just picked up a service guarantee yesterday where they replaced memory card and the mother.
    He worked for 45 minutes then screen erased and won't turn on again.

    Anyone know about this problem?

    Hello

    The blink code provides some kind of clerical error, and this error is not always the same.

    Individual booklets are equiupped with different motherboards and provide different codes.

    It looks like a hardware problem and therefore, you should contact the ASP again.

    The warranty is still valid and you should take it!

    Don t waste time own investigation but get in touch with the guys again and explain your situation and that this error has occurred again.

  • C665/012 satellite charging battery light orange rest

    I recently bought a * Toshiba Satellite C665 / 012 * and every time I try to load light _orange will remain just on_ and when I decide to unplug the battery status remains at 99% and not depleat or increase_. _

    What could be wrong with it and the warranty will still cover it should I decide to return

    Hello

    In your case, I recommend to calibrate the battery first.

    You must discharge the battery until the cell stops automatically. Note: save your work before the laptop would be turned off!
    Then let the laptop connected to the power adapter for a longer period of time.
    Usually the LED status should change to green (or blue depending on phone model).
    Then discharge the battery once more. Repeat 3 or 4 times.

    Hope this helps

    It works and it appears that he was accused of 100% if something is certainly wrong.

    Can anyone help

    Hello

    Calibrate you the battery in the past?
    Do this! It would improve the performance of the battery and battery working time.

    You will need to you completely discharge the battery until it is completely empty.
    Then charge the battery again. Repeat several times.
    I think that 3 to 4 times would be enough.

    After that check if the battery is expected to reach 100% and if the led would turn to green.
