Hi all, i have a laptop that i cant get to work properly.
Its a Toshiba Satellite 1100 model No ps110e-000f7-en/s1100-z3.
I have so far determined that it is definitely a hardware issue and not software.
It will power itself randomly and when it does so it corrupts data on the hard drive.
While the os was still working i tried speedfan to check temps but it wasn't compatible with the chip set. All it could tell me was that the hdd was healthy.
I believe its either a heat related or power related problem. It shuts down on battery power as well as mains power.
I have no problem with getting right inside it if anyone knows of a common problem with this machine of if anyone has any idea on what to check out.
I'm an experienced electronics qc inspector so I'm quite happy to test and/ or solder potential problems, i however have no experience with laptops and wouldn't know where to begin.
All help will be greatfully received.
