Screen not working of Satellite Pro A

My sattelite pro, not sure what model because the sticker has worn out, but I think its something like L18850
When I was using it today, it went into sleep, when I rebooted it the screen wouldn't come on.
I tried removing the battery, holding power button for 45 seconds etc.. That didn't work.
I have tried turning it on and off lots of times, it boots up the desktop, I can hear the sound of it logging in, but it seems to take longer for the sound to happen now and it seems to make the login sound twice, 10 mins apart.
One of the times i Turned it on it the screen worked and it loaded up system recovery, I chose to keep my existing files and partition the rest, the screen was working for the half an hour that it took to recover windows, then when it restarted the screen was no longer working again..
It is very frustrating as one week ago the laptop was with Toshiba repair, there were no previous problems with the screen, I sent it in with a cooling fan fault..
Any help would be appreciated , I need the laptop badly as I work online and need it to pay rent..

Sorry to hear that it very annoying if notebook / computer start to malfunctions.
From my point of view nobody here in the forum would be able to help fixing this issue since I think there is something wrong with the hardware.
You could connect the external monitor just to check if something would be visible on 2nd screen but of course this would not fix the notebook problem.
Maybe the issue is related to the last notebook repair??? You said the notebook was send to the service one week ago this is just an assumption but maybe the technician made some mistakes last time who knows I recommend you to get in contact with the guys again

Chicony Webcam Not Working on Satellite Pro A350d-202

System Specification:
Satellite Pro a350d-202
Windows 7 64bit
I am not sure if this is related but since I updated my laptop to Windows 7 my Chicony Webcam has stopped working. I have tried all of the following:
Complete rebuild of my system from scratch.
+Unsuccessful+
Safe Mode drivier installation
+For some reason, it doesnt let me log in via safe mode. I get to the windows log in screen and it reboots itself after a few seconds. Any explanations? Again, have rebuilt PC a few times.+
No Device for webcam in Control panel devices and printers or hardware.
+Manually installing drivers as recommended doesnt work. I cant see the webcam being recognised+
Half closing the lid of the laptop to hear it recognising the camera or new device.
+Unsuccessful. This does not happen+
In essence, i want to know if this is a Windows 7 compatibility issue or a Toshiba technical fault.
Either way an OFFICIAL word from Toshiba would be key here as I was using the webcam for vital web conferencing for work and now I cant.
Please provide any options or anything else I can try.
Any suggestions deeply valued. Including links or other articles I may have missed
Desperately seeing a solution.
Regards
Danny

The Chicony webcam should be listed in device manager under the option Imagine devices. There you should see USB Video Device entry.
Can you see that?If yes, delete this from the device manager and reboot the unit.
+I see nothing. No entry in imaging devices. No entry in USB devices.+
Usually the Windows 7 should recognize the cam automatically and should refresh the driver. Is it the case?
+Nope. Windows 7 picks up all other drivers. All other software all other facilities. Just not the camera. Laptop works perfectly otherwise, just not cam :(...+

Cooling fan is not working on Satellite Pro A300

Hi Everyone
I was asked by a friend to repair their Satellite Pro A300, as their CPU Cooling Fan had stopped working even during POST bootup and the laptop would overheat and shutdown. So I thought it could one of three things:
# Fan is clogged with dust or dirt
# Fan bearing has failed
# Fan power cable was loose
So I disassembled the laptop and cleaned the fan/heatsink using compressed air and checked the power connection which was solid, but this did not solve the problem, so I replaced the fan and heatsink with another one that I knew worked from the same model laptop that had a fault motherboard because of the random bios boot-up password bug (out of warranty) but still no joy.
I am beginning to believe that the fan was perfectly fine rather the motherboards cpu temperature sensor(s) that control the fan activation has failed.
Am I correct, in thinking that this is basically, irreparable without specialised tools and my friend will have content themselves with turning the system off every hourish or is there something else I am overlooking?
Thank you, for any help.

Hello
Im not a technician but for me it sounds like that fan connector is malfunctioning if you have already replaced the fan and therefore it would be necessary to replace the mainboard
Thats everything what I can say about this Have a look for second mainboard or notebook where you can get a cheap mainboard. Maybe it works. :)

Bluetooth not working on Satellite PRO 660C

Hello,
I have bought recently a laptop Satellite PRO 660C, it has embedded the Bluetooth function but I have difficulties to make it work with a GSM or an IRIS Scanner (both have the Bluetooth capability)
I would like simply to transfer files from these external devices to my Laptop (pictures)
It works fine from Laptop to device but not in the other way ! There is an application (Bluetooth manager) that enables the transfer always from my Laptop, it looks like Toshiba didn't imagine the scenario where files have to be transferred in both ways.
I get a message saying the transfer of files failed.
If you have an idea how I should configure my laptop.
Thank you
Guido

If the notebook is installed with recovery CD/DVD than it should be very simply. Enable WLAN using WLAN switch. When the WLAN LED is ON use FN+F8 key combination and choose BT option.
After doing this it can happen that some BT components will be installed at first but after several minutes you should be able to use BT.

DVD drive not working on Satellite Pro U400-142

My DVD drive is not working. I insert a disk, can hear the drive working for some time but then nothing happens. I checked 'Device Manager' - under DVD/CD-ROM drives it shows: MAT****A DVD-RAM UJ862AS, but there is a black exclamation mark on a yellow circle next to it. I opened the 'Properties' dialogue box and under device status it says:
'Windows successfully loaded the device driver for this hardware but cannot find the hardware device. (Code 41)
I'd like to try to try to solve the problem by re-installing the driver. I have checked the Toshiba website for the driver, but cannot find it.
I'd be most grateful if someone could give me any ideas on how to sove this problem.
Thanks
P

What you can do is follow:
Remove optical disc drive from device manager and restart your notebook.
The drive should be recognized and installed properly. If the same happen again try please > http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/FAQ8101LA0000R01.htm

Touch pad not working on Satellite Pro A60

Hi,
Tried the Fn F9 approach. Still no response. Also tried the setting in the control pannel to no avail.
I have looked in the Device Manager and there seems to be a problem with the PS/2 Touch Pad. Apparently the device is not present, not working or does not have all its drivers installed.
I dont seem to have the driver available nor am I able to find it anywhere in the internet.
Any ideas??

Seems you have to install the touchpad driver.
Download the right one from the Toshiba page and install it!

PC diagnostic tool not working on Satellite Pro L300

When I try executing the Toshiba utility pcdiag.exe I get an error message.
The details of this message say that the 'Fault Module Name' is KERNEL32.dll.
I have uninstalled the original utility programs and downloaded the updated files from the Toshiba website, with the same result - I still get an error message.
What fix is there for this?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Hi
Do you use the Vista OS or Win XP?
I checked the Toshiba European driver page and the PC Diagnostic tool has been published only for the Win XP.
I believe that this issue could have something to do with your installed Windows OS.
First of all you should check if the PC Diagnostic tool is compatible with your operating system and secondly you should update the OS before you would install this tool.
Bye

WLAN not working on Satellite Pro A100

I originally thought this was a driver problem. WLAN switch is on, and I am getting no WLAN. Worse than that, there seems to be no hardware detected.
I've taken the panel off and the board is there, and I've reseated it. Any other ideas?

First of all you should check if the WLan card was recognized and can be found in the device manager! Check it under Network adapters.
If the WLan card isnt there and you see a yellow exclamation mark then you have to install a compatible WLan driver!
All Toshiba drivers can be downloaded from the Toshiba European driver page and should functions!
But its very interesting to know if you use the Toshiba original preinstalled OS!?
If you use this OS and the Toshiba image then everything should run correctly!

Sony Vaio Pro 13.3 Touch: Touch screen not working

Hi, The touch screen for my Sony Vaio Pro 13 Touch suddenly stopped working two days ago and I have no idea how to fix it. I didn't install anything new before it stopped working, and I tried to install all the new drivers on the VAIO update but it still didn't work. I thought it might be because of Windows so I updated to Windows 8.1 today and it still does not work. On the PC info it even says" Pen abd touch: No pen or touch input is available for this display". but this laptop is supposed to have touch capability and it has been working up until now. Please help! My model number is SVP13215CDB. Do I need to install or update my driver?

Hi FlyingTortoise,
Was there any changes prior to touch screen not working? Like installing software or hardware? If not, then try using windows system restore to restore back to a date that you know when it was working. If that still does not resolve issue. Then we may have to put the unit back to factory condition to eliminate software related before servicing the unit for hardware.

Print Screen not working for user but working for Administrator

Satellite A100 Laptop Print Screen Not working for USER but is working for Administrator[ New ]
09-14-2009 11:25 AM
Hi I am new to this forum and am asking for your help. We are sharing a computer, the PrtSc key is working for the Administrator but not when we switch users. We have tried everything that we can think of: From opening a the page(S) we want to paste to not opening the pages. My most common usage is to PrtSc and paste it into an email , but barring that we have tried opening a page in notes, documents, word etc . Nothing seems to work. I do not get an error message , it just won't paste. Since we are not computer literate we are hoping you can help us with a solution . Thanks in Advance .

Jerry, that post you just answered was from nearly 4 1/2 years ago! And that's the last time the OP was here.

As for Turbo Memory, I don't have enough experience with it to claim anything...but am tempted to point at the GPU as being the component most likely at fault...
Good luck.

LaserJet Pr0 200 color MFP M276nw Touch Screen not Working correctly

Hello, I'm having an issue with a LaserJet Pr0 200 color MFP M276nw Touch Screen not Working correctly. I have followed the instructions to reset the printer, but now am unable to select 'English' as my language because every time I select the 'English' option 'Spanish' is selected. I am then given two options to select 'Si' or 'No' both of which can not be selected on the touch screen?
Anybody know of a way round this?

Hi @dnhowes ,
I see that you are having issues with the touch screen not working correctly. I will do my best to help you.
Make sure the printer is connected directly to a wall outlet. (don't use a power hub or a surge protector) This ensures the printer is receiving full power and may help this situation.
Was it the Nvram reset back to factory settings that you tried or a hard reset?
Try selecting the option on the display a little higher above the icon to see if that helps. Some touch screens are finicky.
I find that on the Lab printers when I am selecting different menus.
