Satellite A30-921 shuts down after 10 mins

I own a Satellite A30-921 but it shuts down after 10 mins.
I've tried to alter the toshiba power management settings but they wont work any ideas ?

Does the notebook shut down automatically without showing any error messages?
This could be caused by an overheating issue!
How old is your notebook and did you clean the cooling ventilators in the past?
If not I would recommend doing this.
To clean the ventilators you could use the compressed air spray which can be purchased in most computer stores.
The problem is that the dust and debris inside the notebook prevents the cooling modules from properly working and therefore the temperature increases to the higher level. This leads to the automatically shuts downs.
In my opinion the fans cleaning could helps to solve this issue.

Satellite Pro U200 shuts down after 5 mins then starts after a while

Satellite Pro U200 shuts down after 5 mins then starts after a while. When it shuts down the
blue screen says - stop: (0x0000008e,0xaa846f58,0xa9f29808,0x00000000)
sysaudio.sys - adress aa846f58 base at aa843000, datestamp 41107f1a

Hi
Believe me; its not easy to say exactly why the BSOD appears.
Generally it happens because of the serious software malfunction or hardware fault.
Did you use the OS from the Toshiba image?
There message says something about sysaudio.sys.
This file is a system audio WDM filter process and its a part of Windows OS. It controls the hardware like printer or graphic card on a lower level.
Note: The virus uses such files as a camouflage. You should use always a anti virus application.
Furthermore you have suggested that the notebook shuts down after 5 min.
Well, this sounds like a overheating issue. How did you use the notebook? You should know that the free space around the notebook is very important because of the air circulation. The ventilators should be also free.
I you use the notebook in the right position and this will happen again so I would recommend asking the Toshiba service partner for the help. They should check the notebook.

Toshiba Satellite A300-20T shuts down after 5 seconds!!

my laptop satellite A300-20T shuts down after 5 seconds of booting , i dont know why ?? and i searched for support in the website and didn't find it in the model list, also i don't know why ???!!
i want to know why it shuts down , and how can i communicate with support

Yours would not appear to be a US model. We need the Part Number for your laptop, like PSAG8U-05K02C. You can find this on the Toshiba label on the bottom of your laptop. As well, what country was it originally purchased in. In addition, what is your operating system version, like Windows Vista 32bit?

Did you try to press the F12 button and to change the booting source in the menu which would appear on the screen?
Do this!
At the other hand you can press C button at the beginning which would enable automatically the boot from CD/DVD drive.
Regarding the shut down;
I think this might be related to faulty RAM or maybe to higher temperature.
The A30 is a little bit older notebook and I think dust could clog the cooling grilles and the fresh air cannot circulate properly additionally I would recommend renew the thermal grease which is placed between CPU and cooling module.
Of course this is a job for a technician because its a little bit tricky to disassemble the unit.

Satellite P10-554 shuts down after few minutes and I can not reboot

hello,
i hope anybody can help me with my satellite P10-554
when i start the notebook everything works fine a few minutes. than the monitor turns into black and the notebooks shuts down suddenly. i cannot reboot it, when i push the start-button nothing happens.
i have to wait for about an hour and then i can start it up again, but he works just a minute and shuts down again !
help me please, cause i need my notebook to work !

I did that many times. First you need a special torx-screwdriver. Then you can remove the cover over the fans. Than take your vacuum-cleaner and remove the dust. Take a brush or somethin else to remove the dust from the fans. Then, you need to remove I think 2 big screws, now you should hold the cooling falance in your hands, the one with the fans. Clean that properly.
After that you can remove the copper-cooler, with 2 more screws I think, but it is pretty obviously. Now you should see the blank cpu with lots of heat-paste on it. I dont know why they put so much of this stuff on it from toshiba. So get a better one like Arctic-Silver or sth. My advice is to take the CPU off (one screw on top as far as I remember) and clean the surface.
The copper you can clean under water, but dont use sth that could scratch the surface. After that let it dry good. Now just put the CPU back and fix it with the screw again. Take a !litte! heat paste and put it properly with a paper all over the surface of the CPU, but remember, just a little! Then follow all steps back, dont forget to clean the graphics-chip as well and put some paste on it. You can see which it is when you look under the fan-cooling-falance, there should be a rest of heat-paste. Everything back to its place and voil*, a nice, cool clean notebook. By the way, I replaced even the fans.
If you need further advice, just ask!

Satellite Pro 6100 shuts down after 15-30 minutes

My satellite Pro 6100 cuts out after 15-30 mins operating on mains power. There is a snapping sound and all lights go out except slow flashing amber (power problem). I restore it by removing the power cable and waiting a while.
It will then boot up again. I have used two different power adaptors and two different battery packs. It also happens if running on mains with no battery in. My suspicion is an overheat cut-out. Does the Sat Pro have one? Might it be clogged with dust inside (it is 5 years old)? If so how do I clean it out. I don't think it is fan failure as I can hear the fan cut in. Advice much appreciated. Thank you.

Hi there,
Me and my partner, have the same LapTop, and I've located the problem in connector between PSU board and MainBoard. So, if you've never opened your LapTop, now is the time, but be prepared with tools for SMD soldering. Usually, the connector on MainBoard is the problem. The reason for this is that Toshiba made flaw in design of the housing and admitted that, which resulted with court order for replacing the LapTop with some models from newer line for that time, or paying cash amount ($1.000). I intend to repair my LapTop in a way that I will replace the connectors (both on PSU and Main Board) with thin wires. I know that this is a hell of a job (160 solder points) but what can I do, I love this machine. I am working on Compaq EVO N-610c, but he can only eat the dust from Toshiba.
Regards,
Alek
P.S. If you want to consult me about that matter, feel free to contact me on my e-Mail: [email protected]

Satellite P200-144 shuts down after wake up from hibernation mode

Sometimes when I resume my computer from hibernation, I come back to it (after going to make a cup of tea whilst it boots up, for instance) to find it off again.
I have since observed it more closely and discovered the following: if I resume from hibernation and do not touch the mouse or keyboard, the computer will load up Windows but then hibernate itself again immediately.
If I move the mouse pointer at some point whilst Windows is finishing loading the desktop, etc., then the computer doesn't automatically hibernate.
Has anyone else had this problem and is there a solution?

Thanks for your reply. I am, and always have been, running the latest BIOS. I have never experienced the issue with standby, but that is probably because of the way I use my computer -- with standby, I start using it immediately. I have not tested resuming from standby and not pressing any buttons or moving the mouse.
Have you tested it as I described, by not moving the mouse or pressing any keys when resuming from hibernation, or are you just recalling from memory that you have not experienced it?

Re: Satellite A105 shuts down after 60 seconds (NOT a thermal problem)

Satellite A105-s4344 shuts down after EXACTLY 60 seconds. The mobo has been removed from bezels and all un-needed devices removed (DVD, HDD, WiFI etc.). Swapped CPU and RAM with known good ones. Swapped AC adapter and battery with known good. Does the same on AC or DC only inputs.
I have not yet flashed the BIOS (with 60 seconds this would be foolish). But, I am looking into replacing or reflashing with an EEPROM burner. Currently has V 2.0
I am not sure what genration heat detecting this system uses, but it is a possible cause if it is one of the later generations (visit http://www.topbits.com/how-to-monitor-cpu-temperature.html if you do not know that I am refering to).
Prior to reballing the north and south bridge, and flashing I figured I would get some input from you folks. Just to cover all bases ;)
P.S. the first person to ask what OS I am using will get an instant ticket to the bottom of my respect list.

>P.S. the first person to ask what OS I am using will get an instant ticket to the bottom of my respect list.
:) :) :) Best thing I saw in this forum.
Back to your problem.
I am not technician but here just my opinion about all this. The fact is that after switching your notebook ON CPU in just few seconds reaches very high temperature. You can switch your notebook ON and just enter BIOS settings and the same should happen again.
I cannot say for sure if this is 100% thermal issue or not but what else can be responsible for switching off? CPU will be hot in few seconds only. Material change structure with temperature change and I can just imagine some contact will be interrupted.
On this forum we had many similar reports like when cold notebook starts and runs well but after short time switches off for no reason. Maybe I am wrong but for me it sounds like thermal or bad contacts issue. Lets see what other people have to say about it.

Satellite A10 shuts down after 40 mins

A-10 Pro keeps shutting down after 40 mins, power source is always the AC lead, can anyone help?
Has been checked for the following:-
Viruses
Power managment - on never shut down
Cooling fan seems to be okay

Hi guys
The compressed air spray is a nice tool to clean the internal cooling ventilators!
Usually the dust and debris prevent the fans from properly rotation and therefore the temperature increases and leads to the overheating issues
Use simply such spray and you will solve this!

When running on battery power, my MBP shuts down after 30 mins..please help

this has been happening for the last two weeks; whenever i run my MBP on battery, it goes blank/shuts down after about 30 mins...would start back on, but shut down even before the login screen comes! i checked the battery display under the laptop-it showed 3 green lights!! TIA!! i bought my MBP off the apple website last september!

With your symptoms, most likely, yes. If you have a 17" MBP, you are out of spec (based on Apple's specification of 80% health for 300 cycles). If you have a 15" MBP, you're in spec (84% health), but your symptoms indicate a problem (i.e. a defective battery). So, contact AppleCare!
You can't calibrate now. I asked because if a battery goes too long (150-220 cycles) without calibration, the "sudden loss of power" can result.
Hope this helps...
Graham, that's why I inquired about calibration, but with the OP's cycle count, that's not the issue. Also, FYI the "battery condition" information is part of System Profiler with Leopard; the OP lists Tiger, and did post all the information available under Tiger.

Mac mini shuts down after 10 seconds..

At first today, the CDs and discs kept automatically ejecting and wouldn't read (obviously). So I keep putting them back in hoping it would read or hold something. Then I restarted and the Mac Mini shuts down after 10 seconds of the seeing the desktop. Did I fry it? I did hear a weird sizzling when I put my hand on top of the mini. And is this under any warranty - I bought it Feb. 07? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Any thoughts on that?
One or two come to mind, not least that if the unit is under warranty now (as it clearly is) and they aren't taking this fault seriously, then buying AppleCare so it remains under warranty longer isn't the right solution - having them examine it and resolve the problem is.
There's no doubt at all that in the event there is a system with a suspected fault, extending the warranty long enough that the system ceases to function and can be repaired is a good thing, but it shouldn't be necessary to go to that extreme in order to get a problem resolved now!
I would simply take this elsewhere and have it looked at. While odd noises are sometimes hard to hear in an environment where there are people and other activities going on, and thus it is reasonable to expect diagnosis of them to prove difficult, a system that shuts down of its own accord after a few seconds is clearly not working correctly. To be sure, if it is overheating, then testing it when it's cold is likely to miss the problem, but the description of the fault from the user ought to give enough clues to put the system on test long enough to see what happens when it warms up. If the fault can't then be replicated with a system that is at normal running temperature and under load, then giving it a clean bill of health is reasonable.
Thus, in your place I would ask them if they did, in fact, test it in that way. Alternatively, write a description of the fault, specifically identifying the premature shutdowns and the circumstances in which they happen (if they still do) and the noises and the circumstances in which they occur (if they still do) and take the system and description to an approved service provider and let them look at it.
If the shutdowns are no longer occurring, and the noise is absent, then whether you buy AppleCare or not is really a matter of how confident you are that the problem has gone. If you have doubts that the system is running correctly, AppleCare is expensive but at least extends the warranty sufficiently that you can stop worrying too much. Alternatively, if the problem(s) still persist, rather than AppleCare, have the system examined and repaired right now.

My phone is always charged and always on but when i make or recieve a call it shuts down after 2 mins and just shows the apple icon and after another 2 mins will restart, any ideas what is wrong?

You may have to restore your phone to correct the problem.
