Answer» My TOSHIBA Satellite R10 suddenly STOPPED working. It's just past its warranty period, so no help from Tech-Support.
I can get no response from the battery (which was working fine earlier). I plugged it in to a NEW DC adapter and was not able to power it up. When I plug in the AC adapter the single AC LED light is green. When I TRY to turn on the computer the led changes to a flashing amber (yellow-orange) pattern. It gives four short blinks, one long blink, three short blinks. I understand that this may be a binary code (00001000) which may be converted to some hex code (h8).
I can do the work myself, but I cannot find out ANYWHERE what this code means. Please help!!!What HAPPENED before this started? Can you get any info on the code form the Toshiba site?And which R10 is it? There are about 5 listed on the Toshiba site.*sigh* This could TAKE a while . . .
