Display of Satellite A200 does not switch on after 15 min inactivity!

Hello!
I have just purchased a Satellite A200 1-AX PSA6 and install Windows XP SP2 + upgrade bios for winxp.
After 15 munutes of unactivirty (not pressing any keys or mouse move) I'm set in Power options in control panel - what Display must power OFF.
After this time display is switches off (black)!
But I'm can't wake up my notebook!
I'm press any key or move mouse, but display is still black!
But notebook work!
I can ping then by network or connect by remote acceess!
One way to solve this problem:
Close and open notebook!
A200 - in sleep mode and wake up with swithches ON display....

Hello
It seems that WXP does not work perfectly on new Vista designed notebooks. Before you live your notebook try to change profile in power settings (long battery life) and test the settings with this profile.
Tomorrow I will try to install WXP on my A200 and I am really interesting if I will notice the same.

Display of Satellite A200 is not working

Hi
I own a Satellite A200, since yesterday my display hasnt been working. I can hear vista booting up in the background but theres nothing on the monitor like when the system is switched off.
plz help me..

Hi
Did you switch between the different displays devices?
Using the FN+F5 you can switch to the external monitor or TV maybe you have used this key combination accidentally?
So it would be also advisable to connect another external monitor to the notebook to check if anything would be displayed on the monitor
If you will not see anything on the second monitor then a display fault could be possible.
The A200 is not very old notebook series I think the warranty should be valid. Therefore you could contact the ASP in your country for and notebook check.
Good luck and greetings mate

Satellite A200 does not start anymore.

Hello, im trying to find a whats going on with my laptop. It's a Satellite A200 on Windows 7 professional.
From a few days ago i cant start the laptop anymore. It doesnt look like a software issue because when i push the power button, the only thing that happens is the power led turns on (blue color) and, 2 seconds later, starts to blink orange. And never passes this stage.
The screen remains as off, and i think, the BIOS does not start as well.
Ive already tried to remove the Ram and the hard drive - Keeps doing the same. Doesnt even bleeps over the missing Ram or drive!!!
Anyone have any ideia about whats going on??!! Please anwser!
Sorry for the english. Portugal here ;)

> Do you kown if this is a comom problem with this laptop model?? Because i have read in a few forums that is a common problem with this laptop
Unfortunately, this is a common problem for many laptop models. My old laptop (non Toshiba one) also had such problem with southbridge malfunction. I just threw it into garbage as replacing mobo is pretty expensive procedure. it's better to buy new one or second-hand

Hi SoldovskijBB,
If the phone doesnt switch on after the hard reset, try to connect the device to Zune and see if it makes a difference. If not, itll be best to visit a local care centre where the phone can be checked. Have a look here to find your nearest care centre: http://europe.nokia.com/support/repair-and-recycle/repair/care-points

Satellite A200 does not play DVDs won't play

I'm a first time user on this forum so hello to everyone.
My problem is that my (Vista-running) A200 Satellite will not play DVDs. When I try I get the following message: "Windows Media Player cannot play DVD video. You might need to adjust your Windows display settings. Open display settings in Control Panel, and then try lowering your screen resolution and color quality settings. Needless to say, I've played around with the relevant settings and there was no change to the situation. In a response posted at a different forum, someone suggested that I ditch Windows Media Player in favour of something better. I thought the alternative program he suggested would be free but it wasn't. Anyway, I've tried playing DVDs with other programs and got the same basic message. So it's not a Windows Media Player thing, it's a playing DVDs thing. Also, it doesn't matter if WMP isn't the BEST DVD player - I just want to play DVDs!! I've written to a Microsoft customer care helper person and they wrote back saying that it wasn't their problem. They consider it a "hardware matter". I don't buy that.
Just some history - I bought the computer second hand from a good friend. Now I can't remember ever playing a DVD on the computer, which slightly confuses things for the following reasons. Just after I bought the computer, which runs Vista, I installed MP3 player software that disagreed with the CD/DVD player drivers. This I think is a fairly common problem. That time Microsoft reps were happy to help me and told me to delete two key lines of the registry. That fixed the problem to some extent because now the drive a) existed again and b) could read and play CDs. But when I tried to play a DVD I got the above-mentioned message.
So like I say, as I don't remember ever even trying to play a DVD on the drive, I don't know whether or not the problems are related to the MP3 software clash problem, although it doesn't seem unlikely that they are related. Finally, the computer was less than a year old when I bought it and in every other respect it has been fine (Vista's intolerable sluggishness notwithstanding). Sadly the extended warranty has now run out so I hope it's not a hardware problem. The point is that since I've never even played a DVD on this thing, and it plays CDs with no problems (furthermore, the drive can READ DVDs, it can tell me all the chapters that are on a DVD and read files off it - it just won't play movies), I don't think it's hardware. I think there's some bug going on.
If anyone could shed any light on this matter, I would be eternally grateful!
Regards
Tom

Turns out that my confidence in Windows Media Player was misguided.
I wrote and said as much to the Microsoft rep who advised me to look elsewhere for advice.
I further told him that from now on, if I meet anyone with the same problem I will give them the advice with which I was originally provided - don't use Windows Media Player.
Heeding the rep's advice, I looked around on the website for the company that produced my DVD drive (Mat****a DVD-RAM UJ-850S ATA Device) and in other forums, I forget where I found the advice but this media player:
Videolan Media Player Downloadable for free at:
http://www.videolan.org/
seems to play DVDs with no problems. I hope someone else might benefit from the information.
Good luck to all

Satellite A200 does not start up

Hi
overall, i was very happy with my A200, now 5 months old.
But last month, strange behaviour.
Vista always perfect closed.
Next day, want to start my PC.
_ON-button is doing nothing_, although battery is 100% ok.
-> SOLUTION is to remove battery, insert again and then with ON, the laptop is starting...
Other issue:
ON-button is starting up the laptop, but _screen remains black_.
-> Same solution, remove battery and start again.
Is this known? Solution ?
Thx
dave

JayJay is right. The BIOS update should helps to sort out this issue!
Check this Toshiba US page:
http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_sc_dtlView.jsp?soid=1991432
I would recommend updating the graphic card driver too.
How about Vista update?
You should check if the Vista is up-to-date!

Satellite A30 does not come back after hibernation.

If I don't touch the keys for 10 mins or so my laptop goes into hibernation. It will normally come back when I touch a key or the touch pad but sometimes nothing I do can get it back. I have to turn it off and then back on again. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas?
I looked at the power management and I can turn off all hibernation but I like it to hibernate when I close the lid so is there any way to make it so it ONLY hibernates when I close the lid and at no other time?

HI Clare,
In the Toshiba Power Management utility you should click on the 'advanced' tab and about half way down the resultant window you should see an option for the action to be taken when you close the lid of your SA30.
Make sure that this is set to 'hibernate'. Then go to the power save modes and click on the 'details' tab and then the 'Power Save Mode' tab and make sure that the 'Hibernate' option is set to 'never'.
With these settings your notebook should go into 'hibernate' when you close the lid but not at any other time.
Note that you can set the notebook to hibernate when running on battery when the bttery capacity reaches a pre-set value of your own choosing.
regards,

ThinkCentre Edge 71, Power LED does not switch off

Since I have installed win7 64bit, the pc does not switch off after Power down command. For switch off i must hold the power button >10sec.
Thanks for Help.

Hello Walter,
Please update the BIOS which will resolve the issue.
http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/thinkcentre_bios/9qjy36usa.exe
You may also try the Windows registry setting. Kindly be careful while editing windows registry.
Have a look at the following registry location (note that you need to invoke regedit.exe with administrative privileges in order to make any changes in this location) and ensure that the value ClearPageFileAtShutdown is set to 0 (if it is set to 1, change the value to 0).
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management
Best Regards,
Tanuj

Satellite 2410-303 does not switch on

Hello there,
we have a system here on the bench with the following problem:
- system does not switch on
- with battery inserted power LED keeps on blinking in yellow
- connected to mains power LED keeps on blinking in yellow
- no sound of fan or spinning HDD
- no other LEDs come on
Any ideas?
Tia
W. Pfiffer

There is no much to say. I presume blinking LED sends a code. Sorry but I am afraid there is nothing to do. Contact authorized service partner and let them check board electronic.
There is probably some problem with power supply electronic.

AT270 does not switch on

Hello,
my appr. 2 year old at270 has "problems to switch on" since some time (Display stays dark although the buzz tells the tablet reacts). I thought I might have software problems and resetted.
Now it does not switch on at all, but maybe this is not completely true, because attaching the tablet via usb to my Desktop the Explorer shows its directory.
Do I have a hardware problem ???

> Do I have a hardware problem ???
It looks so
You could try to perform hard reset pressing and holding the power button and volume up button.
Usually this enables the advanced menu where you should be able to choose the reset option.

The wish list only works on apps you have to pay for. To get it tap the icon of the app you want to save. After it opens at the upper right corner is a box with a arrow. Tap that then tap add to wish list list in the box that opens.

My Mac Pro does not switch off.

It worked before Lion. Installed 10.7 and also upgraded to 10.7.1 but, on both cases, it does not switch-off. To be precise it "sometimes" switch-off but many times it does not. Let's say once on 15 times... With Leopard I nevere had this problem. (it persists also after a PRAM reset). I also run a second problem but only once and only upgrading to 10.7.1 (not to 10.7). It says that my RAM was on wrong position.. I had to remove and install the RAM again and it worked.
Any other case like this? (This append only on my MacPro - early 2009. On my MacBook and my MacBook Pro OSX Lion works fine).

Is there a pattern to the chimes, or are they simply random, as if the Mac is repeatedly rebooting on its own?
Have you tried a "Safe Boot"? Press and hold a Shift key as you power up the Mac. Does it start then?
If it starts at all "Safe Boot" will take much longer than usual, that's normal. Shutting down will take longer also. Try it.
