This happened to me three times. One of them I had best buy fix because I had a warranty with them. They had to replace the whole motherboard. At first I didn't understand why, but whatever. It came back and it was fine.

The second time I contacted Toshiba because of the extended warranty and I had them fix it. I refused to go through the mail because of horrible stories.

The third time it happened. I opened it up and took a look at it myself. Not only did it have that problem, but I'm guessing it overheated and melted, ruining the motherboard. I can take a picture, it's still in pieces because there was no point in putting it back together. I already moved on to another Toshiba laptop. I could have bought another part for it, but seriously, this was going to happen again.

I really think Toshiba should get their hand slapped for this one. This was a major fail on their part. I'm kinda pissed about it still, but what can you do?

edit: Also, when you check ebay, a lot of people are selling the lappy for parts, but most of them have the same problem.
