Satellite A305-S6898 labelflash problem

I purchased this Satellite laptop in October 2008 at Best Buy, one main reason for its purchase was due to its labelflash support. I have purchased the CDs specifically for labelflash/lightscribe but in the program it does not give me any other option to choose other than MS default printer (or something of that sort) HELP! Does it have the program in it or not? Am I doing something wrong?
I have tried other forums and used their methods I even installed NERO essentials 7 but still I can't get that darn thing to work.

As informed by Techman, and I can confirm ULEAD is installed for disc burn label aspect. Read this Article as guidance; Creating Labelflash disc labels Also, there could have been a FujiFilm Labelflash disc enclosed as a sample to use? Remember you have to flip the disk onto the opposite side when you engage the ULEAD program The image dye layer is located 0.6 millimeters below the surface of the label side. Remember to use special disc for your tasking.

Satellite A305-S6898 - half black screen on the start-up

I purchased this laptop back in the beginning of March and had to return it to store due to an issue at start-up when half the screen would turn black on the Windows log in screen. They ordered me a new one that I received about 3 weeks ago and I used it for about a week before I got the same issue of half black screen with the start-up.
Now it has been running really slow and about an hour ago I had it freeze up on me and my entire screen turn into a bunch of colorful lines.
I had to restart into safe-mode and run a virus scan just to make sure that wasn't my problem.
I don't download anything on this computer other than the basic messengers and photo editing programs.
I have an HP MP7170N desktop which i use to download everything that seems to run quicker than the laptop and I use photo programs, downloads torrents and store most of my music and photos on that one and it only has 1GB of memory compared to this ones 4GB.
What is the deal?
Anyone have any ideas as to what I can do.
I can't really return it to the store because they only give a 14-day grace period for returns.

Looks not good for me it sounds a little bit like graphic issue.
Before you would contact a professional Toshiba authorized service provider it would be interesting to know if you would notice some improvements after recovery procedure and BIOS update.
I believe you didnt get an recovery disk because you can create it using the preinstalled Toshiba software check your user manual how to create recovery disk
So after new installation check the notebook usability and if similar issues still persists.
If nothing will be changed its strongly recommended to contact an ASP

Satellite A305-S6898 Randomly shuts off

My computer seems to be working when I turn it on, but randomly shuts off after a few minutes. Then it will not stay on for as long as it did when I power it up again. I think it might be overheating and then powering off. Any suggestions or ideas?

When any unit immediately shuts down, even in the middle of a tasking, it is a sign, most often of OVERHEATING, then hardware failure. Check the fan and exhaust port and remove any debris. Remove the battery for now and restart the unit to see if concern alleviated. Check the power adapter for signs of worn/twisted wires. Check the unit plug connector to ensure a good fir for the power adapter.

A305-S6898

I just got this laptop a few months ago. Around last October/November, I think. I've been having a lot of problems. The webcam doesn't work properly. Every time I turn it on, the whole system freezes. Also, whenever I plug in my USB or Ipod, it either freezes or doesn't recognize the device. Its really annoying. I don't know what to do. I've tried a number of things but nothing works.
Help please?

Open Device Manager (devmgmt.msc) and inspect the Universal Serial Bus controllers. Anything unusual there?

A305-S6898 Troubleshoot

I have had this Toshiba Satellite A305-S6898, PSAGCU-05601S, for a few years, and about 8 months ago or so, I started having issues. Up to this point, I was running Windows 7 Ultimate for a few years. The biggest issue that I have been having is that whenever I download, either from Internet Explorer or Firefox, it tells me that the download was interupted, and when it does complete, it tells me that the download is corrupt. I replaced the HDD back in January, and still have had this issue. I have done the MEMTEST a few times, and it comes back with nothing is wrong. I found a free motherboard and processor tester, cannot remember the one that I used, and they say that nothing is wrong. I want to say that I have a motherboard or processor, but want to make sure that they are bad. I love this laptop, and do not want to replace it. I want to run some thorough diagnostic software on the laptop before I take it someplace to get repaired. Any suggestions?

you may want to run a scan using another third party anti-maleware program or two just to ensure it is not maleware. I like to run malewarebytes every other week but there are others that are available on the internet and free.

A305-S6898 second drive

Hello,
I have a Satellite A305-S6898 and it has a slot for a 2nd hard disk. Is this all ready to go and I just plug a 2nd hard drive in? Format it and go? Running Windows 7 Pro SP1 can I use it for Raid 1, simple disk mirroring?
Thanks.

I guess noone knows.

Cannot charge, cannot run w/o battery - Satellite A305 PSAGCG-S6898

Hi, Friends,
I have a similar problem:
I have a Satellite A305 laptop (PSAGCG-S6898).
Preface:
The laptop could be overheated sometime since it was used by my daughter before the problem occurred.
Oberservations:
1) The machine cannot run until the battery runs out.
2).The machine cannot run with AC adapter connection but without battery. (is this a norm problem?)
3).It seems that the battery (new or old) cannot be charged, but the battery LED is still orange color, since after charging several hours, I start
the computer and it automatically shuts off after several seconds when I press the power on button.
My questions:
Where is the problem? the charger or the charging circuit into the chase?
Why the machine cannot run with AC adapter connection only (but without battery)? Many other laptops, such as Dell, they can run with AC adapter
connection only.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated to: [email protected]
Thanks.

Hi
First of all it should be possible to use the notebook only connected to AC adaptor (without the battery). My two Toshiba notebook do this.
In my opinion youve got an hardware problem maybe its something wrong with power supply electronic on the mobo.
Fact is that your battery does not charge and you cannot run the notebook connected to main only
Therefore its smells like a hardware issue
In such case you should get in contact with an local ASP (service partner). The parts should be checked

Satellite A305 restarts after shutdown

A few months ago I noticed that my laptop would restart after I shut down and closed it. I tried changing and updating my bios, I tried tinkering with my power settings. I formatted the hard drive and reinstalled Vista. I tried everything that I could think of. I noticed today that if I waited about ten minutes after shutting down and before closing the laptop it wouldn't restart. Maybe I'm missing something obvious here, but does anyone have a solution to this problem?

I formatted the hard drive and reinstalled Vista.
Meaning that you restored (not reinstalled) the hard drive to its original factory-new contents using Toshiba recovery media? Or what?
Do you have Service Pack 2 installed?
Which Satellite A305?

Won't hurt to reinstall the driver. There are three listed for your model. The first two have the same version and release date, but the file size is different. Try them all.

Satellite A305-S6858 win XP video driver not working

I recently bought a Satellite A305-S6858 in the States and I downgraded the Vista Home premium pre-installed
to Win XP 32 sp 3. I had several problems in getting the computer up and running. After reading several posts
on various forums I managed to install the OS but I am still unable to use the Intel video driver.
After installing the ones available on the toshiba web site I still have in Device Manager under the video adapter node
2 Mobile Chipset 965 entries with an exclamation point.
I recently discovered that not having the video driver installed the OS doesn't allow Stanby and Hibernate as power down options.
Has anyone stumbled in the same issue?
Thank you

You need to install the Base drivers first.
Try installing the Intel Chipset Driver first, then the Display Driver.

A305 S6898 power light comes on, computer fails to start up.

A305 s6898. Windows vista.
Over the past several months, I've gone to turn on my computer, and found that the hard drive would simply refuse to spin. I press the power button, and power comes on. The power button glows, and the indicator at the front of the computer is lit to show that the computer has power.
However, the screen does not light up, and the laptop will not boot. The tiny cylindrical indicator that typically flashes when the computer is working properly initially begins to glow, and then stops. It does not start again, and apart from the power indicator being lit, the computer is, for all intents and purposes, off.
The first few times this happened, I ignored it because the computer will eventually turn on after several hard shut shutdowns. The number of attempts has varied greatly depending on the occasion.
It has been happening more and more often.
Due to the fact that this issue is intermittent, and is not accompanied by an errors. I am convinced that this is due to a physical problem within the computer. Possibly a loose connection or an old wire? I'd like to know if it's fixable and, if it is, how to safely go about fixing it.
thanks in advance

Dear Erico
Thanks for quick response.
I have tried both your proposed options;
Firstly disconnected HD (both power cable and SATA cable) no difference,
Cleared CMOS, no difference.
Checked again seating of memory found OK.
Removed an additional Network Card from the PCI connector, no difference.
Removed connections to CD Rom, (both power cable and SATA) no difference.
Removed for sake of completeness battery, no difference.
The start up sequence apperas quite unusual:
Upon switching on by the power button, the powerlight switches on (green) and the HD light switches on for a short moment (Only while pushing the power button)
Ventilators start running on normal speed.
Access to CD rom (trying to read from CD rom) (also with a start-up disk the computer will not boot)
HD appears to rev up (I only hear the sound of revving up, however no read or write indication (HD led stays dark))
Computer shuts down automatic after about 5 seconds. (ventilators stop, power led switches off)
Computer powers up again automatically after a delay of about 2 seconds.
Same starting up sequence as above.
After about ten seconds ventilators of powersupply and chassis speeds up to maximum revs.
I am not sure if the ventilator of the processor also revs up, I tried same with the processor ventilator disconnected, no difference.
This continuous untill shutting down by hand (pressing power button 4 seconds)
While pressing the powerbutton the HD led lights up.
(power led lights continuously during start up, no POST warnings, no beeps, no cursor on screen)
It appears to me that the computer thinks that it is overheated and accordingly wants to cool down the chassis by additional ventilation. However I anticipated that only the processor temperature is monitored.
The problem first occurred after switching on at 08:00 in the morning after being switched off the day before at 17:00.
your further suggestions are appreciated.
Regards

This is the replacement battery I bought.

At first it didn't charge. But after doing a power reset, it charged up. And then I did a charge/discharge cycle. The problem is that right after I did my first discharge to break it in, the battery was not detected again. So I ran through everything. Power cycles. Uninstalled ACPI battery driver and reinstallled it to no avail Updated my bios to 1.80, since there's not 3.0 version for my lappy model. My old battery still charges though my laptop still tells me it needs to be replaced.
So...
Is there anything more I can do? Should I just return it and get a new replacement battery or is there still anything else that can be done? Was it just not compatible with my laptop even though it said it was? Any help would be great! Thanks!

You may want to look at the fixes in this article:
Battery not charging, not being recognized, or losing charge
If it still doesn't work, there may be a problem with the battery or a hardware problem in the laptop itself.
