Q. I have a toshiba satellite a505-s6025, and it was working perfectly fine yesterday. I open it today and notice its out of battery, so I hook it up to the charger and it turns on as usual, the fan is running, but the toshiba logo does not come up, nothing comes up. Dont really know what to do from here, am trying to avoid having to bring it and pay for it to get fixed elsewhere. Someone please help, thanks.
A. Eventually you might need to fdisk, reformat your toshiba satellite a505-s6025 laptop hard disk clean and reinstall OS. Before going that route, try following simple fixes to see if the problem goes away.
Remove the battery and charger/ac adapter/power cord from your toshiba satellite a505-s6025 laptop, press and hold the power button for 20 seconds to discharge any residual current inside the laptop. This clears your RAM and is like a hardware reset. Replace the battery and charger/ac adapter/power cord and turn your toshiba satellite a505-s6025 on.
Boot in "safe mode". As it starts up press F8, the computer ask you if you'd like to start in safe mode. Highlight "safe mode" and press enter. See if your toshiba satellite a505-s6025 works normal.
If it runs normal now, do the following maintenance and tune up,
Uninstall unnecessary programs and applications.

Scan with a spyware/malware program

If the problem persists, did you check if it could be your toshiba satellite a505-s6025 power cord or power source problem? Defective or insufficient power supply might cause error messages that are misleading. Take the battery out and power on your toshiba satellite a505-s6025 with the charger only. Make sure your laptop power jack and charger plug tip are securely connected. Did you notice the power jack loose? You can find laptop power jack on ebay. Fixing and soldering the power jack requires professional skill though. The charger green/blue LED should be on. If not, replace the defective charger. toshiba satellite a505-s6025 battery charger lifespan is limited and does not last forever, consider buying a lifetime warranty charger online from company like www.topmic.com

How to replace a Toshiba Satellite L505D Screen?
Q. I broke the screen in my Toshiba Satellite L505D-GS6000 and now I need to replace it. So I was hoping to find a site that provides step-by-step instructions with pictures if possible to show how to replace it. I never bought a warranty and the manufacture warranty doesn't cover accidental damages. Is their anyone that knows of a site that provides instructions on how to do this for my model of laptop or can provide instructions on how to do so?

What does the flashing power cord led on my toshiba satellite mean?
Q. Something happened to my toshiba satellite (some kind of error) and now it doesn't want to start and the power cord led keeps flashing even when I removed the power cord. What gives?
A. if it doesn't charge its very simple i have a Satellite but no led on the power cord anyways i left the part of the cord where it comes apart you know plugged up and in the wall but it fits both ways even though it is polarized and it overheated and stopped working so you need to get a new charger from toshiba most likely as that's what i did and it works great now just always check it after 30 minutes and make sure its not to hot if it is unplug it till it cools down and plug it back in the other way and you can leave it plugged in as long as you like it will not matter...
