    I didn't buy those Toshibas altough was close to because they didn't looked OK like old Toshibas , so I'm not 100% accurate here .

    Known problem with some models ( mainly A70 ) search the forum for threads and contact Toshiba about a fix .

    Lack of proper earthing also led to many later problems with those models so don't let it pass by .

    Edit : Yoohoo , 100 posting .
