swears she never had problems with it? theres your answer. you got scammed buddy. i suggest you throw it out tha window. theres no hope. you could buy a brand new one for cheaper than what it will cost you for the computer nerds to fix.

Even though the battery says its charged it may be bad. Do you know someone with the same laptop, so you can borrow thier batttery to test it.

My sister has a Toshiba laptop and my daughter has a Compaq laptop. \n\nMy sisters Toshiba has had three screens go bad in the 11 months she's owned it. It takes 45 -60 days to get it back. She must ship it to them for repairs and pay for shipping both ways. Its still under Warranty. Getting through to their tech support is difficult at best. She has used her new laptop about 2 months out of 11.\n\nMy daughter has a Compaq laptop. She goes to college and does alot of her work on it. A couple of days after her purchase, she noticed it was getting very hot. This is after several hours of use. She called Compaq tech support and they explained the situation. Then they had a cooling pad sent to her free of charge. No more overheating problems. Then my grandson slammed the lid down hard and damaged the screen. Again she called tech support and the next day a repair shop called and arranged to pick it up and take it in for repair. Tech support made sure a screen was shipped to the shop overnight. Within 36 hrs of calling tech support it was repaired and sitting on her desk. No charge.\n\nI have a Compaq desktop and have called HP tech support at least a dozen times. Never for an equipment problem, just operator problems. I've never waited more than 2 mins to get through and received excellent support. They spent as much time as it takes to resolve any issues. Five hours with me once.\n\nTo me it is also the support of the product that counts.

Check to make sure you dont have any recalls on that particular thing. Maybe you didn't put it in correctly. ummm maybe your laptop is not responding correctly to it because the unknown error is not effecting it. Just follow the error and keep doing what ya doing. have a nice day

Hate to even ask this...but you might want to check that the laptop has a hard drive in it. I've seen a couple people send in their laptops because they were still under warranty and the company "forgot" to put the hard drive back in it.\n\nTry to enter the BIOS when you turn on the laptop. (the exact key to press can be found in my first source link)\n\nYou should be looking for something similar to this:\nhttp://www.paul.sladen.org/lights-out/screenshots-original/bios-date-time.png\n\nMake sure that it recognizes a hard drive in there.\n\nIf it doesn't, then the hard drive may have crashed and will need to be replaced.\n\nIf you have any other questions, feel free to message me.

Right Click on My Computer. Click Manage. In the new window that opens up, in the left pane, click Device Manager. When it comes up in the right pane, make sure there's no icons that have caution signs in the audio section. Caution signs means there's a problem, and it's usually the driver. If that's the case, right click the thing with the caution icon, click Uninstall Driver, go to the Control Panel (Start > Control Panel). Click on the upper left on a small link that says Classic View, then click on Add New Hardware. It should automatically reinstall using Windows Update (click anything in the new box that says automatic or use windows update to search for the driver).\n\nThe last Toshiba I troubleshot a problem with turned out to be hardware related. Is your laptop one of those "Media" laptops with buttons that let you play movies or music without being in Windows? If so, play a CD. If there's still no sound, use the volume buttons to raise the volume. If you hear something, then the problem should be fixed. Boot into Windows and everything should be happy. \n\nExpensive answer: If all else fails, bring it to Best Buy Geek Squad, but expect to pay $50 - $200.

if it's don't work at all then it isn't magnet  issue ... i  think your lap top has another issue and it's an old one since they previously replace RAM and motherboard twice

Take it to a certified Toshiba Serivce Center for repair. Toshiba's standard warranty is one year.\n\nhttp://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_navShell.jsp?cf=su_rc.html&BV_SessionID=@@@@1846340713.1148157255@@@@&BV_EngineID=cccfaddhkmmkmidcgfkceghdgngdgmn.0

I have an HP at my job that was having some trouble and it was hard for even the IT people to get info/parts on it. It was a modified ASUS board made for HP apparently. The beeps usually are Video errors or RAM errors. If you switch RAM and still have a problem the motherboard is probably toast. This model sounds pretty old, time to upgrade anyways.

Is it a toshiba? there's a known issue with some tosh laptops caused by a flawed power jack connection.\n\nPS: dont quote me on this, but I heard that tosh won't fix it under warranty, despite the fact that it makes the laptop unsuitable for use as a portable device. If this is the problem & you are in the UK, there's a couple of independent repairers who can sure up the connection with epoxy resin saving you a lot of money.\n\nADD ON: I've seen your update, & it could be down to the issue I've mentioned. If you're not in the UK & this does turn out to be the problem, find a small independent repairer & if they start quoting silly prices for replacement parts, mention what I've told you here. \n\nIf you are in the UK, try the link below, although if you are outside of Yorkshire, transit costs may make the cost prohibitive.

call up tech support and tell them ur problem. i know some ppl who had HP laptops who had the same problem. they were told to download a patch which fixed the problem.\nbefore u do this, install some software that gives u ur system info. try belarc. search for it at www.download.com where u'll get it for free. if it sshows up as 1.25GHz, call up tech support or take ur PC back if u bought it from a store.

Well they are. I bought a HP/Compaq nx7000 business notebook. No doubt its great looking machine and works well. But u can expect unforeseen problems in the machine. The motherboard of this laptop got burnt or stopped working for no fault of mine. It was out of warranty and the new motherboard was for 500 bucks so I bought a used motherboard from ebay.  Since then it is working fine.  I checked the forums at the HP site and all the owners of this machine had the same problem with the motherboard. \nI also have a old sturdy Dell PII laptop and this machine works fine. If you want to have a complete knowledge of the machine you are thinking of buying don't depend upon the reviews at some known laptop review sites. Go to different forum where you can have opinion from people who actually use these machine.

I have a Toshiba M45 - S359\nhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000BKABC6/002-9371304-9284833?v=glance&n=541966\n\nIt is a work horse. I have been using it for the last 7 months and it has given me no problem at all. If you are sitting in a "quiet" room, you can hear your hard drive spin. That is fine with me. \n\nThe computer is pretty fast. I've played CIV 4 on this system without any problem. The fan is working great. Overall, i've had no problems.\n\ni hope it remains the same way.\n\nHowever, there is one thing that I really did not understand. Toshiba pulled the sales of this laptop 2 months after I bought mine. I'm not quite sure why Toshiba would do that. They replaced this series with the A100's. \n\nYou asked for my experience with my laptop, and here it is!
