i got a Toshiba A65 and I got 2 wires off the motherboard that i’m trying to figure out where they go. They are white & black with cooper tips but the white one has a red mark on it and black on is just plain.

Most likely they are wireless card antenna cables. You don’t have the wireless card installed and that’s why these cables are not connected to anything.

My A85 laptop drop down to the ground so the screen is black now.
Should I replace the back light or invertor?

Is the screen cracked? Can you see any image on the screen at all?
Test the laptop with an external monitor. If the external video output doesn’t work either, your problem is not related to the screen.
Check the memory module, try reconnecting it.

Two bottom screws look like different with the top
screws. The top screw is Philips. What is the bottom screw and how can I remove it?

Thanks

When I power one, the red Toshiba sign on the start screen has black stripes running though it, then it goes into a black screen with the command prompt and stays frozen.

Sounds like bad memory. You’ll find more information about this problem here: Toshiba Satellite A60 and A65 problems.

I have a problem with my satellite A65 and do not know how to fix it. When I power one, the red Toshiba sign on the start screen has black stripes running though it, then it goes into a black screen with the command prompt and stays frozen.
If I restart the computer and apply some pressure (with fingers) below the space bar (and to the right) the toshiba red sign is just fine and the computer loads fine. However as soon as I remove the pressure it freezes again. I opened up the computer and search for faulty connection/stuff not pushed all the way down. I tried cleaning up the inside and checked everything inside but it did not solve the problem.
Any innput would be greatly appreciated.

I was hoping you could give me a bit of advice.

I was replacing the fan in my daughters Toshiba A65 S126 Satellite laptop. When attempting to disconnect the male
pin from the female pin that is connected to the circuit board, the female pin broke off the circuit board.
I tried soldering the fan directly to that point on the board but there isn’t enough contact material
remaining on the board to do so. Is there some place on the board that I can directly wire the fan into? I
don’t care if it runs at high speed whenever the laptop is on. Any ideas as to how to jerry rig this fan would
be very much appreciated.

Thanks Joe
