Satellite L305D-S5934 - After shutdown the power light is still on

I just bought a Toshiba Satellite L305D-S5934 two weeks ago.
Here lately, I can't seem to fully shut it down. I select shut down from the start menu. It appears to shut down (the screen goes black) but the power light is still on and I can hear it making noises inside like it's still running.
I'm running Windows Vista.

Hi
Does this issue appear always? I mean is this a permanent status that your notebook cannot power up correctly? Or does it happen only sometimes?
From my knowledge the Vista the default action for the Power button in the Start Menu in is Sleep. So your notebook would not power up but would go into the sleep mode.
You can change this like described here:

Furthermore you should check if your BIOS is up to date.
Choose your notebook model (it seems like a US series) and download the compatible BIOS.
Check it!

Satellite L305D-S5934 - After XP installation nothing works

I recently had an error with my Satellite L305D-S5934, it was running vista. It wouldn't wouldnt start up so I had to install Windows XP, but now nothing works.
Is there something i can do to get the video graphics back to normal and wifi and everything that was factory on the laptop?

Hi drftking23,
> but now nothing works.
Wow, very detailed! :D
Anyway, I think the problem is that you need drivers for your hardware so WLAN, LAN and all other devices dont work.
Everything what you need you can download on Toshiba US page where you can find your notebook model:
http://www.csd.toshiba.com
But let me give you a word of advice: Just use the Toshiba recovery disk where all drivers and tools are preinstalled. This disk contains a ready image of factory settings with all drivers and tools, its pretested and configured by Toshiba.
Maybe its an option ;)

PXI-8106 shuts down shortly after boot, the power light is flashing.

How can I tell if this is a board power supply problem in the NI PXI 8106 or a PXI crate problem?   The time between shut downs decreases to the point where it will not boot at all.

Hi dlknies-
     Take a look at the PXI-8106 User Manual on page 3-14. It says that a blinking Power LED indicates that one of the PXI or onboard supplies is operating outside of the normal limits or is not functioning. You can attempt the repair yourself or you can have it sent back to National Instruments for an RMA.
     I hope this helps. Best of luck to you!

Satellite L305D-S5934 Video Hardware Error Live Kernel Event

I Have a new Satellite L305D-S5934 and from the beginning I've been having some problems, whenever something seems to be "too much" for it to handle, like installing programs whit other windows open, or like using google earth, it just goes black, and in order to turn it off I have to keep the power button pressed, or while watching a video, everything frizzes but the sound goes on, ans other similar things.
The system recognyzes it as Live Kernel Event, here's the nfo it dives me:

E3000 was unplugged, now when plugged back in, the power light just flashes....HELP!!!

My wi-fi signal in the house was showing an excellent reading, but it wouldnt connect to the internet on any of our devices. We unplugged everything, and then when everything was put back together, the routers power light just flashes, and wont even show an internet connection to the computer. I had to unplug the ethernet cord from the back off the router and plug it into my computer just to get online....what should I be doing?

The power light on your router is flashing. Try to reset the router and reconfigure it. Press and hold the reset button on the router for 30 seconds. Release the reset button and wait for 30 seconds. Power cycle the router and wait for 1 minute. if the power light on the router is solid then try to reconfigure the router.
If the power light is still blinking then try 30/30/30 reset on the router.

Satellite L305D-S5934 does not boot - blank screen

I have a problem with a 2 year old satellite l305d-s5934.
On switching on, the power light comes on but the hard drive light does not and the screen stays blank.
I have tried removing the battery and restarting without it after pressing power button, but nothing changes.
Any advice on fixing the problem would be welcome.
Thanks

Hi
Remove battery, disconnect the AC adaptor and leave the notebook disconnected for a longer period of time. After that connect both parts can try to power up the unit once again
If this does not help, check the RAM. Remove the single module and test both slots using each module.
Of course it could be possible that both modules are faulty and this procedure would not help you.
In worst case the motherboard might be affected in such case only mobo replacement would be helpful.

I have bought the wireless keyboard for my iPad. I was working for a day but now the power light won't stay on and as such won't connect to the iPad. I have changed the batteries but still no difference.

Not knowing which wireless keyboard you bought, it is difficult to be specific. but ...
it is quite normal for the keyboard's power light not to stay on - it is a way of conserving battery power.
Try this:
turn you keyboard off
on your iPad go to Settings > Bluetooth
if your keyboard is listed under Devices, then touch the little blue i to its right and choose Forget this Device
now reset your iPad: hold both the Home and Power buttons down for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears, let go promptly when the Apple logo appears and wait another 30 seconds for your iPad to turn itself on
After your iPad is back on again go back to Settings > Bluetooth
now turn your keyboard back on and see if it appeard under Now Discoverable
if it doesn't read your keyboard guide to figure out how to put it into Discovery mode
touch the listing for your keyboard under Now Discoverable, it should now appear under Devices
touch the listing for you keyboard under Devices, and choose to pair with it.

Satellite L305D-S5934 Black Screen

Hi, my 2 month old Satellite L305D-S5934 was working fine. Then, when I started it, the screen is black. Everything else seems normal.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Scott

Satellite L305D-S5934
Probably you have a hardware malfunction.
But it's possible you encountered this bug.
Windows Vista Service Pack 1 or Windows Server 2008 stops responding (hangs) during startup
If so, it should start up when you try again. Vista's Service Pack 2 (out next week) should cure it.

Satellite L305D-S5934 Switching Users

When switching users on my Satellite L305D-5934 the screen goes black with no cursor blink,complete black screen, also does it when logging off. Only thing I can do is do a restart and go back to login screen, total pain. I did a restart in safe mode and the screen does not go black in safe mode. I've also done a restore to a previous date and still did not correct the problem. Any suggestions?

Satellite L305D-S5934
the screen does not go black in safe mode.
What happens when you boot clean as follows?
   1. Open the System Configuration utility (msconfig.exe).
   2. On the General tab, click Selective startup and clear the Load startup items check box.
   3. On the Services tab, click the Hide all Microsoft services check box and click Disable all.
   4. OK out and restart the computer.

Satellite L305D-S5934 sound quality

I just bought a Satellite L305D-S5934, and the sound level was really low when I tried to play a DVD on it; however, the sound level was fine with youtube and amazon. Does anyone know what could be the problem? It's not the DVD itself, because I tried to play it on a different laptop, and it was fine... Could it be the Toshiba DVD player?
Thanks for your help

i have this same problem. i even tried head phones and speakers and the sound is even harder to hear. its mostly with movies i watch via streaming video. i havnt even tried a dvd in this laptop yet, i just bought it. but now when i get home today i will try one. eagerly waiting for some insite to fix this issue.

Why is the power light blinking?

I've had some issues connecting to the internet. I just replaced the cable modem and have it all set up. I still don't have connectivity through the router. I'm able to connet the computer directly to the modem and it works just fine. But, I noticed that the router power light keeps blinking. What might this be telling me? Is the router trashed?

Hello salin, the reason why you can't get online on your router because the router is not in good condition. The power light of your router should be solid at all times. There could be a problem with your router's firmware because the power is blinking. It can still be solve but you need to diagnose it first if you can still fix it because maybe it went bad already. To help you diagnose the router then try to follow the steps.
> connect PC to Modem and download your router's firmware here.
> disconnect PC from Modem and connect PC directly to the Router in port 1 (don't connect the Modem yet)
> press and hold the reset button of the router firmly for 60sec while router is turn on and just release it after
> unplug the power cord of the router and wait for another 60sec before plugging it back in
> check the lights on the router to see if the power turn solid
   -if power light stops blinking then start updating your router's firmware and reconfigure your router
   -if power light is still blinking then continue the steps below
   > check if you can get an IP from the router.
      -if you can get an IP from the router (the default gateway should be 192.168.1.1) then start updating your router's firmware and reconfigure your router
      -if you can't get an IP then assign static ip to your PC. Use Static IP:192.168.1.10, Subnet Mask:255.255.255.0, Default Gateway:192.168.1.1 and just leave the Prefered and Alternate DNS empty.
      > ping the default gateway number. Click start and click RUN. In the RUN box, type CMD and click OK button. There's a black window that will open. Beside the blinking cursor, just type ping 192.168.1.1 and hit enter on the keyboard.
        -if you got this on the black window ping statistics- got 4 replies, 0% loss then start updating your router's firmware and reconfigure your router
        -if you got this on the black window ping statistics- got 4 replies, 100% loss or media state, media disconnected then that means your router is no longer responding and thus you need to replace it.
How to update your router's firmware?
> access the web page of the router and go to Administration tab and just below that click the Firmware Upgrade sub-tab.
> browse for the firmware you saved in your PC and open it.
> click the Upgrade button.
> if Successful then just close the web page and reset the router for 20sec and just release it after. Turn off the router and wait for another 20sec before plugging it back in.
> check the lights on the router. It should turn solid.

Has anyone had a problem with a deskjet 3910 printer with the power light flashing?

The power light keep flashing and the printer won't print but it isn't giving an error message. I ran a diagnostic on it and the message it gave under device status was:
HP Print Diagnostic Utility has detected there is a pen failure that needs to be addressed before printing will be successful.
I can't find anywhere that tells what this problem is or how to correct it. Has anyone else come across this problem?

would putting up a metal shield by the meter help?
It might, as long as the shield is grounded. Metallic (such as copper) window screen is often sufficient.
As mentioned, it would not hurt to file a complaint. The burden of proper shielding should probably belong to Pepco. Among other things, the FCC frowns upon RF leakage and its interfereing with radio communications. Besides, Pepco probably would not want you to affix a shield around their gear - liability issues, etc.
You could experiment by temporarily hanging a shield-screen on the inside of the wall, behind where the meter transmitter device is located, and see if there is any beneficial change.
