Thanks again... but can i ask more...so u mean to say it is still safe to use my battery even if there's a warning as i open my laptop...the AC you are talking about its the charger ryt?well i guess its safe to use...becauseryt now im still using it..is it okay that i ignore the warning about the battery?thanks its a big help...:-)

It is beyond what I can diagnose remotely, as it fails to power up even on just the AC adaptor, without the battery.

It needs a professional repair, which means opening it up to find out why it fails to start or even show a screen, which means no software fix can be done.

You have a bad or loose DC connector on the system board:

Symptoms of a broken power jack
1. If you wiggle the power cord or the AC Adapter connector on the back of the laptop, the power LED and battery charge LED start to flicker.
2. Battery will not charge in the laptop.
3. Laptop runs fine off a charged battery.
4. With the AC Adapter connected the laptop appears to be dead.
No power LED or battery charge LED activity.
5. Laptop randomly powers off without any warning.

If your laptop is out of warranty, then you can fix the problem by resoldering DC-IN jack on the system board. If it

Hi there, please restart your laptop when its booting press F8 key . You will find few option asking for selection. Select that by using up/down arrow key. Select " Last know good configuration" & press Enter. Next page asking for selecting operating system, for example: windows vista or Windows XP etc. Just select the operating system & press Enter again. ( Hope your laptop showing only one operating system ). Your laptop will start normally.

Thanks & waiting for your feedback

Im not sure but there is normally a button somwhere on the laptop which acts a a reboot button. normally very small and have to press it using a pin etc. You could try that then turn it on but not sure if it will help?

it means your battery is damaged. avoid using battery while using charger in your house. remove battery to be safe. battery is for outside or for travel only.

I started having the same problem and worse mine would shut off without warning either from the battery running down or even just plugged in without a battery.

I thought It might be overheating so I got a can of air and cleaned all of the vents...and downloaded core temp to monitor the cpu temp @ http://www.alcpu.com/CoreTemp/. Same problem shut down and no charging even though it was running cool.

Finally I started changing settings and it seems to be working and charging just fine.

Here's the answer:
1. Set your power scheme to balanced
2. Open Toshiba Assistant from start
3. In Toshiba Assistant open CPU tab and set to low power.
4. When asked "restart now?" say no and shut it down using the start menu.
When you start it back up you will see the change.

Changing either one of these settings brings the problems back. I can't explain it.

I HOPE IT WORKS FOR YOU!

I just can't afford another laptop right now.

P.S. even at low power my system works fine...It's a little slower @ start-up but otherwise good.

It's safe to use with the battery that way. Do you have a power cord for it?

ya absolutely no problem with that

Yes, unplug, remove battery, replace, then start. It's just glitched slightly, no biggie.
