Satellite P100-286 won't start anymore

Hi,
I have a P100-286 which I don't use very often but today I tried to switch it on and all I get is a flash from the lights near the speakers and the power light comes on for a few seconds then nothing.
The battery light is lit up red but it also won't start if I take the battery out a connect it to the mains?
Is it likely the laptop is dead or could it just be the battery?
I have only had it a few months and don't use it very often so the battery has not been under much load

Hmm sounds not good!
Try this firstly;
Remove the battery and disconnect the AC adaptor for about 20min.
After this short period, connect the battery and the AC adaptor again and try to start the notebook.
If this simply procedure does not help, you will have to contact the ASP in your country for a notebook check.
Your feedback is greatly appreciated.

  • Satellite P100-286 won't go into standby mode

    I've noticed that even though it's set to sleep when I close the lid. The fans keep going and the sleep led remains blue.
    Reading the manual suggest the machine should turn off the fans, hardware etc and the light should be orange.
    Hibernation works fine, but I want it to sleep.
    I suspect the problem lies with the NVidia 7900 GS Drivers I am using (7.15.10.9754).
    I've tried going back to the Microsoft ones, with no luck.
    Which drivers should I be using to solve the sleep issue and how to I get Vista to use them? It always seems to use the latest.

    Hi
    Do you use Windows Vista?
    On the Toshiba notebooks with window XP the power saver is installed and controls the settings for standby and hibernation mode.
    I assume on the notebooks with Vista OS the Toshiba power saver was not installed and you have to check the settings in the Vista power options.
    I dont know what drivers you use and where you have downloaded it but you should use the drivers delivered with the notebook and the Toshiba image.

  • Satellite L40 18P won't boot anymore

    Hello folks,
    my Satellite L40 18P won't boot anymore. All I get is the Power LED to go green. The DVD ROM drive blinks and I can open and close it - but that's it. Nothing else happens.
    Any idea in the forum what I can do to get the notebook boot again ? Or please ask questions for additional details.
    many thanks, Johi 13

    Hi,
    wow, that was fast.
    No, I can't see anything - the screen stays black. I do not hear the HDD start, neither do I hear the fan.
    This behavior appeard for the first time yesterday evening.
    Last activity was (if I remember correctly) closing the lid and sending the notebook to standby.
    So far, I haven't tested it with an external monitor.
    thanks, Johi13

  • X11 won't start anymore!

    Hello,
    this is a desperate call: I am at a conference with my MBP, (10.6.7, all updates done). I need Matlab for my presentation, which needs X11.
    X11 (and XQuartz) decided that they won't start anymore: the icon bounces in the dock for a while, then sits there without the little light underneath, and X11 is "non responding".
    The logs show something like this.
    I have googled and searched: similar problems once in a while appear but no posted solution.
    I tried:
    1) reinstalling XQuartz (I would reinstall X11, but how? I do not have the disks with me, I am away!)
    2) from an admin account
    3) create a new account.
    4) repair permissions.
    5) reinstall the font update from Apple that was recently issued.
    HELP PLEASE!!!

    Here is the solution: there was nothing wrong with x11 per se!
    The problem was that about 30 files in /usr/bin (like gzip, egrep, hexdump etc) had been hosed (they had 0 file size).  The puzzling messages was due to the fact that startx uses hexdump, which was simply silently doing nothing (since it had 0 size!).
    I do not know what or when these files were zeroed: I suspect a recent OSX update which did not complete and I had to forcefully reboot.
    I have fixed it enough to work (copying those files from another mac), but who knows what else lurks beneath the surface of apparent serenity!
    I am actually surprised that the whole system did not stop functioning completely.
    MORALE: if something looks strange in the logs with x11 or other apps, check the file sizes  in your /usr/bin, you may be surprised too!

  • Adobe bridge won't start anymore. Icon is hopping and then it shuts down..

    Could someone help me with this. After trying to install output module in bridge cc, bridge won't start anymore. The icon is hopping for a few seconds and then the appllication is shut down.

    Oh ok - Thankyou for that. I will be ringing them tomorrow and I will not be happy ! And I'm hoping they can suggest what I'm suppose to do about getting it back to them as I can't take it in myself. SO so angry!!! Does people getting it back in a worse state happen often? :| do read these discussion boards? I hope they do!!!

  • Mega Player 538 won't start anymore

    I just flashed the firmware of my mega player 538 to the latest 1.11.03.
    The prosedure went ok but now the player won't start anymore.
    When I press "Power On" -button nothing happens.
    Is there anything that I can do or is the player gone...?
    Can I reset the player to solve the problem?

    I contacted MSI support, but no answer from them yet.
    Unfortunately I didn't have time to wait because I had a very important affair where I needed the device.
    So, I returned the player to the shop. Of course the shop didn't have replacement on the stock but they gave me my money back. So, I went to another shop and bought a creative player instead and I was able to complete my affair.
    It would have been nice to have the problem solved because the player was perfect for my needs and was very cheap as well (only 20 euros). The new player was three times more expensive and only 512Mb storage.
    If MSI will return with a solution I can post it here in case somebody else has a same kind of a problem.

  • My 3Gs won't start anymore, how can I get it to?

    I plugged in my 3Gs for the night last week and I woke up with the battery at 80%, so I just thought that maybe it came unplugged or something.  I plugged in my charger and nothing happened, I got the "Charging is not supported with this accessory" error, even though I was using the white wire that came with it.  I took it out of the wall adapter and tried it on my computer, nothing.  I try my brothers wire, my mom's wire, car chargers, everything.  Now I'm not sure if my battery is just done, or if my phone just won't start anymore, it's out of warranty so I'm up for any type of fixes, thanks.

    Clean the iPhone dock port with a clean dry toothbrush. See if it helped. If not, clean dock port very carefully with lint free cloth moistened with Isopropyll Alcohol, especially clean the pins which are on top of the dock mid rib. You can even use the toothbrush with a bit of Isopropyll Alcohol here too. Let it dry, usually 30 seconds time. See if this helped.

  • Ultra 10 won't start anymore

    Hello,
    I have an Ultra 10 box with an extra video card inside. Everything was working fine, and then I got curious and decided to open it up to see what's inside. Now it won't start anymore. I turn the computer on, the fans start spinning, but nothing gets displayed on screen. I can hear the hard disk turning too, and the CD drive is powered, but I don't think anything is going on.
    The only thing I touched when I opened it was the extra graphics card, but I was very careful and I am pretty sure I did not fry it. I get nothing displayed on screen when I plug the monitor in the original video card either.
    Is there anything I can do to find out what the problem is? Is there some special switch inside the box that I may have turned off without noticing?
    Thanks for the help...

    Hello,
    when you removed the ATI Radeon (XVR-100) and powered-on, the long card (Creator3D or Elite3D) with the weird connector (13W3) became the default output device. It takes precedence over the integrated video.
    Remove the long card (if you don't own a 13W3-HD15 adapter or monitor with 13W3 connector) and insert the XVR-100 (attach the monitor to the integrated video). If you power-on the integrated video becomes the default. You should see the output on the monitor.
    Enter show-displays at the ok-prompt. If only a single entry is displayed, power-down and check if the card is properly seated.
    Otherwise press the letter of the entry that doesn't contain /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/SUNW,m64B@2.
    This a sample output of an Ultra 10 with Creator3D as add-in board.
    ok show-displays
    a) /SUNW,ffb@1e,0
    b) /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/SUNW,m64B@2
    q) NO SELECTION
    Enter Selection, q to quit: b
    /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/SUNW,m64B@2 has been selected.
    Type ^Y ( Control-Y ) to insert it in the command line.
    e.g. ok nvalias mydev ^Y
    for creating devalias mydev for
    /pci@1f,0/pci@1,1/SUNW,m64B@2
    nvalias mydev ^Y
    The above sets the output-device to the integrated video even if a Creator3D is installed.
    Then enter setenv output-device mydev (if you used this name) and reset-all. Attach the monitor to the XVR-100.

  • CVI program won't start anymore

    Our measurement application worked well on several PC's (Win7 32Bit, WinXp 32Bit).
    But on 2 newer PC's (Win7 32Bit) the application won't start anymore.
    The attached Error with the code R6030 shows up.
    We found a workaround for the problem: run the application as administrator.
    But after we installed a USB-driver, this workaround doesn't help anymore,
    and the Error shows up every time.
    We installed the environment (cvi-rt, etc...) with an distributed setup.
    So the Versions of the components are the same on every PC.
    Any ideas?
    Solved!

    Okay we solved the problem,
    the cause was, the HP-Software, which was preinstalled on the PC's (the others were Dells)
    After uninstalling the HP Security Suite our application works perfect.
    I hope this helps other poor guys

  • Eclipse IDE won't start anymore after most recent security update

    Hello everybody,
    after today's security update the Eclipse IDE won't start anymore on my system, I just receive the following error message:
    A Java Runtime Environment (JRE) or Java Development Kit (JDK) must be available in order to run Eclipse.
    No Java virtual machine was found after searching the following locations: /Applications/eclipse/Eclipse.app/Contents/MacOS/jre/bin/
    java
    'java' in your current PATH
    Java is installed and Eclipse ran smoothly until I upgraded. Other Java programs like Visual Paradigm still work without problems.
    Does anybody have an idea what I can do about this? I have already tried repairing permissions, to no avail.
    Best regards,

    I have narrowed down the problem even more:
    Obviously system path variables are not set anymore on my system for UNIX processes that are started in background, whereas starting applications from terminal using the open command ('open Gimp.app' for instance) still works without any problems.
    Any ideas where to change this behaviour?

    If so, delete everything in the folder /Users/controlled account name/Library/InputManagers.
    Also try deleting /Users/controlled account name/Library/Preferences/com.apple.safari.plist.

    I got this P100-286 with Nvidia Geforce Go 7900 GS and recently the laptop started freezing with vertical lines on the screen tried different options even tried recovery cd to re-install and after installation it started doing the same. I have read similar problems in the forum and is this a common problem with Toshiba? I have spend 1500 on this and it is only 3 years old. My friends have laptops older than this almost 6 years and in good working condition.
    Is there any solution or suggestion for this problem? The heat on the base of the laptop is really hot and it is like this for ages.
    Any help is really appreciated after spending this much would like to last longer or it is a realibility issue with Toshiba brand.

    It is happening in BIOS and even tried ubuntu on a boot cd and still having the same problem. I took to a PC servicing center they immediatly said it is a graphics card problem. The lines are comming in an external display as well. If you search in this forum you will see similar issues is reported by another user. I do think it is a genuine problem. The graphics chip is on board and it cost a lot to replace it that is what I been told.
