PMB and windows 8 - Sony Community

I loaded PMB Version 5.2 onto my laptop running Windows 8, and the program installed ok until it got to the stage where PMB had to analyse the video files on my computer. The program just hung and did nothing. After a bit of searching the net, I associated the program with Windows XP SP3 and the program finished the installation just fine. So here is what I did: AutoCAD Services & Support - AutoCAD splash screen starts up and then closes (Standalone) Windows - Apostrophes and double quotes don't show up until I type the next letter.

Machine reboots when charger is plugged in

Notsosure's link to the Toshiba thread really helped in figuring out the logic behind this mess. What's happening is that certain capacitors on the motherboard that regulate the current of the CPU have started to fail. So whenever the CPU changes its clock speed or multiplier, the capacitors do not deliver the required voltage to it and the CPU malfunctions. This causes the system to reboot. Some users have fixed the issue by replacing the faulty capacitors (they are located directly behind the CPU socket on the motherboard). Intel refers to this throttling technology as Speedstep.

Tosh A2OO reboots when both battery and PSU plugged in

So I am looking for second and third opinions on what may be wrong with my old Toshiba Satellite A2OO. The problem that I have is that when I plug in the PSU with the battery in the machine wants to shut down and restart. I have just received shipment of a new compatible battery from Hong Kong believing the old battery to be the problem.

The battery is definitely compatible and yet the problem persists. In fact the computer works fine on the new battery. I have tried the following: This has been a well documented issue for older Toshiba models and I also found information about not using Bluetooth and Upek fingerprint utilities due to Wireless interference and other, but this to has caused no change. I have come to the conclusion that this is more than likely a mainboard issue ie: power regulation (bad regulator chip?) If this is in fact the case then my dear old Tosh A200 is bound for ebay in parts (guess I could get a few dollars for wireless card etc etc).
