Re: Toshiba Satellite - Locks up when plugged in

It's ALIVE!!!! bwaa haahaa

The fix was a 100% success!

I can't believe such a major TOSHIBA problem was fixed by such a cheap fix. (approx $13 NZ not including labor).

TOSHIBA should recall all laptops fitted with these NEC Tokin chips and fix this issue once and for all!

SO here is photo of the finished product as promised.

I can't claim the soldering work as my own I have a guy who does this sort of thing for me....

Thanks for your swift reply, caps have been ordered and job should be completed by end of week. Will take pic of finished product and post results.
Hopefully all goes well!...

Re: Toshiba Satellite - Locks up when plugged in

HI, I'm a new member to this forum but I have been led here many times searching for solutions to computer problems, with both desktop and laptops. Most I have repaired successfully thanks to this site.
Now I have a Toshiba satellite A300 with the random shutdown issue, I have disassembled and confirmed it has an OE907 cap under the CPU.
I have tried many things including updating bios, restore to factory, format and reload Vista32 SP2, disassembled, cleaned HSF, cleaned and replaced thermal paste.
Still had this...
