I know yours is a Toshiba and the following is for Dell, but both are laptops - mine did not start for over a week! See this thread:

Acer aspire 4339 wont turn on with new battery

That means the laptop is not detecting the battery as authentic or full enough to boot the laptop. Most batteries are now smart batteries, so the battery you bought may be an aftermarket battery not supported by the laptop. Return it and cite the issue.

I need pc performer key

WARNING!... lol... Please be wary of the "saavy ONLINE con-artist(S0"... but you can actually find people online...possibly Ebay or Craiglist... that CAN (legally, of course) sell you a VALID UNUSED (OR "ACTIVATE"(able) product key for your product specified. Give it a try!..... I build computers for a living and have HAD TO resort to this practice on SEVERAL OCCASIONS!!! Happy Hunting!...... :)

How to fix a htc g2 phone that wont reset

When it comes to the HTC phone as with any ANDROID PHONE it has bugs the same as a computer. Try talking battery out and leave it out for about an hour, or in your owners manual it should show you how to factory reset without the phone completely booted up. If that does not work, you will need to find a corp store for your carrier, they can put them on a machine to reset them, you may lose all your saved info but it willl save your phone. HOPE THIS HELPS

My Gateway Gt 5220 will not turn on. Technicaly it does turn on ex: hard drive spin processor click couple time power brick and processor fan spins hard drive light flickers couples time and cd drive will...

sounds like your system is booting up and running due to the hold power shutdown procedure. you might try replacing the video card or adding one if your video is integrated.

Headphone jack doesnt always work

It appears that dell has actually issued an updated driver, but not linked it to the downloads for that model, see here (R173209)
If these do not work, IDT is the company that bought out SigmaTel, and you can find similar references by searching both SigmaTel 92xx and IDT 92xx.

My laptop Acer Aspire 5720ZG turns itself off while playing a game

as i think maybe its the graphic card acting up because its getting over heated.

make sure that all the fans are working properly and u might need to replace the graphic card.

for now just make sure that its not over heating and if u want u can download drivers and reinstall them.

most likely its overheating problem

cheers
