Toshiba Satellite C850 / C855 (Inventec Dakar10F) Schematics & BIOS Bin

Motherboard Specifications

The Inventec DAKAR10F / DAKAR10FG is a very common motherboard found inside the Toshiba Satellite C850 and C855 models. This board typically features Intel's HM70 or HM76 chipset, supporting Intel 2nd and 3rd Generation processors (Sandy Bridge / Ivy Bridge), and uses standard DDR3 memory.

• Brand / Model: Toshiba Satellite C850 / C855
• Manufacturer / Code: Inventec DAKAR10F / DAKAR10FG
• Part Number: 6050A2491301-MB-A02 MP
• Chipset: Intel HM70 / HM76

Common Chip-Level Faults & Repair Notes

Before replacing the entire motherboard on a Toshiba C850 / C855, check these frequent failure points:

• Corrupted BIOS: Extremely common on this series. The laptop may power on with a blank screen, or the fan will spin at 100% with no POST. A BIOS reflash (file provided below) often brings it back to life.
• HM70/HM76 Chipset Failure: If the laptop powers on for exactly 30 minutes and then shuts off, you might have an HM70 chipset paired with an unsupported Core i3/i5/i7 (Intel anti-theft restriction) or a failing PCH.
• No Power (19V Short): Inspect the ceramic capacitors around the CPU VRM and main power rail. A shorted capacitor will trigger the charger's protection circuit.

Toshiba Satellite L500 (Compal LA-4982P) Schematics & BIOS Bin

Motherboard Specifications

The Compal LA-4982P (KSTAA) is the primary motherboard used in the popular Toshiba Satellite L500 series laptops. These boards generally feature the Intel GM45 / PM45 chipset architecture paired with Core 2 Duo processors.

• Brand / Model: Toshiba Satellite L500
• Manufacturer: Compal
• Board Number: LA-4982P (KSTAA)
• Architecture: Intel Core 2 Duo / GM45 / PM45

Common Chip-Level Faults & Repair Notes

If you're troubleshooting a dead Toshiba L500 / LA-4982P, consider these frequent issues:

• NEC/Tokin Capacitor (Proadlizer) Failure: This era of Toshiba laptops is notorious for NEC/Tokin capacitor degradation under the CPU socket. Symptoms include the laptop shutting off abruptly under load, freezing, or only running on battery power. Replace it with 4x 330uF Tantalum capacitors.
• No Display / Black Screen: Often caused by a corrupted BIOS or a failing Northbridge (GM45/PM45). Try flashing a clean BIOS first (provided below).
• DC Jack / Power Issues: Check the input MOSFETs and the main 19V rail near the charging IC for shorts.

Toshiba Satellite A350/A355 | KTKAA Los Angeles 10/10G LA-4571P REV 2.0

Toshiba Satellite A350 / A355 (Compal LA-4571P) Schematics & BIOS Bin

Motherboard Specifications

The Compal LA-4571P (KTKAA / Los Angeles 10/10G) is the core motherboard used in the Toshiba Satellite A350 and A355 laptop series. This architecture is based on the Intel Cantiga chipset and supports Intel Penryn processors. It comes with dedicated ATI graphics (M82 or M86).

• Brand / Model: Toshiba Satellite A350 / A355
• Motherboard Part Number: Compal LA-4571P (KTKAA / Los Angeles 10)
• Processor Support: Intel Penryn (Core 2 Duo)
• Chipset: North Bridge: Intel Cantiga | South Bridge: Intel ICH9-M
• Graphics: ATI Mobility Radeon (M82 128/256MB or M86 256/512MB)

Common Chip-Level Faults & Repair Notes

If you're troubleshooting a dead or faulty Toshiba A350/A355 (LA-4571P), keep these points in mind:

• Graphics Artifacts / No Display: The dedicated ATI graphics chip (M82/M86) is the most frequent cause of failure on this model due to thermal cycling. Reflowing or replacing the BGA chip is the standard solution.
• NEC/Tokin Capacitor Issue: Like many Toshiba laptops of this generation, this board may suffer from a failing NEC/Tokin Proadlizer under the CPU socket. If the laptop crashes randomly or shuts down under load, replace the NEC/Tokin with 4x 330uF Tantalum capacitors.
• No Power: Verify the 3.3V and 5V Always-On rails. Check the main 19V rail and the DC jack connector which can become loose over time.
