Aspire T180 won't start and makes a beep sound

My Aspire T180 not boot at all and makes a beep sound. The monitor doesn't wake up. The sound signal is a long beep followed of two short beeps - all in about one second of 1 1/2 to 2 life. My nephew has recently completed a 2-year computer program. I had to listen to him over the phone and he immediately said "Oh!" Your memory is bad! »

A second opinion? And if it's a memory problem, the two modules DDR2 which are to replace, or something deeper? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

1 long, 2 short beeps

Error message - video system failure

Description - an error has occurred in the ROM BIOS video, or a failure to trace level was met.

Trye first resetting the BIOS, remove the battery for about 5 min and put again, check if its help.

Otherwise get out your DDR2 modules and only for slot which was empty before connecting.

If you have integrated graphics card, use of trye update one if you have on your motherboard.

    Hello
    I have a Toshiba Satellite A80-121, and it won't work. Yesterday, worked all very well, but now it does not start.
    When I press the button the button normally has a blue color, then the screen stays black, no image at all, then the fan stops. Then I got a beep every 15 seconds.

    Can someone help me what is wrong?

    Thank you very much for your help

    Hello!

    It sounds like a hardware malfunction...
    If you have installed two RAM sticks try it with a single. Check it!

    I m not a technician to laptop but the problem may be with the motherboard, RAM or CPU, but this is my personal opinion.

    I need help to Flash the bios. I have an Aspire 5810TZ. I start and he just says "acer" and goes no further. I went to the download page for BIOS on us.acer.com and it has a zip file with 5 files:
    JM4151135.exe

    What should I do? I tried to copy the files on a USB key and turn on/off with Fn + ESC key. After the release the power button and pressed Fn - Esc another screen appears after 30 seconds. I gave up and gave her 30 minutes but it does nothing. I read another person that should be flashing power button online. I have to rename one of the files. Help, please!

    Aspire 5810TZ menu of frozen startup.

    I finally understand it.

    I couldn't start a back b/c drive, it me did not start anything.

    I followed this chain of logic:

    -Downloaded the bios (2.35 is the one that worked for me)
    -Find the exe file in the winflash file.
    -Extract the files in archive exe using the 7-Zip program
    -Find the .fd file and rename it to JM41X64. FD (I read in a forum was unique in my laptop)
    -Copied JM41X64. FD and FLASH it is. EXE on a USB
    -A the battery and the hard drive out.
    -With its trendy diet I supported Fn + Esc and that you press the power button once while ensuring that the Fn + Esc has been always held down.
    -J' waited 6 seconds and release the Fn + Esc and seen the flashing flash player
    -After about 10 minutes, restarted the machine and the bios as like new.

    Later, I found that there was a hard drive problem.

    I want you guys should help more. All I needed was the name of the JM41X64 file. FD and you don't know how many hours I put into trying to find how simpy bios flash. It is not that difficult for someone with a b.s. in computer science to learn how. Couldn't we a m.s. back b/c the bios drive was messed up. F12 didn't work.

  • Equium A200-1VO does not start and makes weird noises

    My Toshiba Equium A200-1VO don't load on Windows entirely, which means I can't use it. When you turn everything goes well until the Welcome screen in Windows Vista. From there, it starts to get weird creaking and it beeps from time to time. It won't start here and these sounds do not stop.

    Help please

    Hello

    Is it possible to know where the noise comes from?
    As suggested by above user, it could be a HARD disk, but in this case, it would mean that HARD drive failures and he could die in the next time

    You said it s begin properly until appears the window Vista would be
    So maybe it s only a problem of software but I m still don t know what part of the software would create such sound however, I think that if would not be bad to reinstall the operating system in order to check the notebook with factory settings.

    If this strange question would persist or if you would not be able to reinstall the operating system using the recovery disc then a hardware problem could cause this strange things and I think it means that you will need to contact the ASP in your country for a material test

  • Re: Satellite U200-111 won't start and flashes the amber light DC-IN

    Hello!

    My wan't to the computer to start and the amber DC-IN led blink 2 times, pause, 3 times, pause, break, 2 times, 1 time...
    I think it means the error code 2321. Can someone give me a list of fault codes?
    Where can I find a manual for this computer repair?

    Thank you and best regards

    Sorry, but these codes are not available on the Toshiba pages
    I think that only the authorized service partner may be able to help.

    A few words about this issue;
    Still the blink code means that a hardware problem has been detected on the motherboard. Motherboard problems are still serious issues and in my opinion should always be checked by an expert.

    Also I doubt you're reading this correctly as a blink code provides still a 1 or a 0. Short means 0 and 1 long. Finally, copy the following code must be set to hexadecimal.

    In order to cut short this long history; you need a technician in ASP.

  • HP Pavilion p6210pt desktop PC: after the installation of the new module of RAM PC does not start and continues to beep.

    Hello

    I am trying to upgrade the RAM on my PC. I don't know I got the correct specifications: 240 pin DDR3 PC3 - 10600 1333 MHz

    And it comes to envy, I bought, Kingston.

    The PC has 6 GB of RAM and a free slot, after I insert the new module on the free location corretly and press power, the PC does not start. It starts just a beep and the screen remains black.

    Don't know how better to explain this.

    If I take the new RAM all works normally. If I take old modules and just start by the new, the same thing happens, computer won't start not and just keeps to the beep. One of the Tweets is longer than the other, and then it repeats.

    Can anyone help please, it's just the motherboard it is too old or something?

    Thank you.

    See you soon.

    Hello

    Given that your PC works with the old DIMM modules and not the new dimm then you should contact Kingston for a cure.

  • CS2 disc 4 won't start and complete the installation.

    I had this with disk 1. ThenIi switching discs for the re-installtion on win7x64. When I get to disk 4, it won't turn. I know that the disc is good and the disc, I can see the content on when in the other drive. I can't wait to go through the installation of any new. but it looks like I have to. I tried to install the final two components. Acrobat and go live but he dislikes the SN on the case. looking forward to your answers.

    CS2 is completely not supported under Win 7 and the fact that you are using a 64-bit version, it will be even harder to make it work. Best advice I can give you is to upgrade CS5.5 while you still can.

  • Equium A60-155 won't start and turns off

    I have a celeron Toshiba EA60-155 355 / 40 GB / 512 MB of ram and for months has been very difficult to start. It takes up to 10 attempts to start properly, because it feeds normally but with a white screen. Once started it USUALLY works fine, but sometimes becomes empty when you use it. This happens randomly and not necessarily by doing anything CPU intensive.

    I would like any advice or solutions, as it's crazy of me and my family!

    Dave Marshall.

    Hello

    Not easy to say why it happens. You should first check if it s not a software problem.
    Try to update the display driver. If it doesn t help you recover unity with the Toshiba Recovery CD. After this procedure, all should work properly. But if the problem persists then I guess it's a hardware fault.
    In this case we need the help of service

  • Computer won't start and the screen is weird looking

    After the maid left today, I noticed my computer screen on my DELL PC running Windows XP HOME Edition (service pack 2 or 3 - I don't know) seemed strange. The pixels have been weird in several areas of the screen and the cursor froze.  I tried to turn off the computer, but it will turn off, then I disconnected and finally had to hold the power switch on the CPU for a few seconds to turn it off.  When I tried to turn it back on again, it showed Windows startup to the top of page - but the screen still seemed weird - kind of out of touch.  The computer does not start.  It's just a black screen with a cursor in the middle of the screen is frozen and the mouse does not move.  I tried to push the F-8 when starting Windows screen came. He took me to a different boot options menu, but always with the print-screen out of phase. I tried a few startup options, but it just brought me back to the Windows boot screen with the logo being shifted - sort of split and strange looking.  Is it possible that my maid has done something to the computer, wiping down? Is it possible to fix this? It's never happened before. Can someone PLEASE?  Thank you

    Hi Goldie309,

    I suggest that you reset the default monitor settings using the buttons available on the computer screen and check if that helps.

    You can also connect another monitor to the computer to check if the monitor is defective.

    But the laptop still wont start I tried to run chkdsk/r from the command line and was unable to do as he says Windows cannot run disk checking on this volume, because it is write protected. I don't know what to do now anyone no matter what ideas thanks in advance.

    Seems odd. Startup Repair should have solved the problem.

    Have you tried new reboot running?

    Give it a shot...

    Any chance that you have a "backup computer?

    Try to do a full restore of the PC.

    See how it goes...

  • Vista won't start and F8 does not work

    I got a SONY VGN-SR140D laptop, when I try to start the system. It behaves as follows:


    After past the Sony logo it enters a black screen with an indicator of underscore flashing on top of the left hand and remains there goes no where.

    I try to press F8, it does not work. However I still be able to get into the bios.

    I use windows vista DVD to start the system and perform the Startup Repair, but it shows that there is no error. Can I use the memory diagnostic tool to check the memory, but it will not display any errors. Therefore, I use the command prompt to perform the disk check, it displays no error.

    After all, I'm trying to restore to the last point, it shows that I don't have a restore restore point. As a result, I am stuck here, please help.


    Hello

    Looks like there is some kind of hardware problem. Check with a real store of the computer (not the leeks and pics
    at a Best Buy or other department stores) or the Sony Support.

    Data may be saved by placing the hard drive on another computer as 2nd car, or in a
    box external USB drive - or you can copy the data to removable media such as CD, DVD.
    or other USB keys.

    You should be able to do a clean install of Windows which would require programs to be reinstalled
    and the data restored from backups (see above). That might not work system exists without repair.

  • Why my computer won't start, and where to go safe mode?

    I had nothing but problems since then tried to switch to Windows7.  Several attempts over the past two weeks, none worked. Then started getting the blue screen of death at random times. Today they came more often until it got the point where computer should restart and go straight to the blue screen of death.
    Tried to reinstall Vista, I have had to do in safe mode, because I couldn't have what. Did not exist then. Now, I can't find it. Don't ask me why. If I knew, I wouldn't be here.
    Vista has been subject to half way through installation when SURPRISE! Blue screen of death. After that, he says that there is no disc in the drive, then no player, then not whatever. I remember even now, I'm so frustrated. Changed the CMOS to boot from the CD Rom settings, did not a thing. Can't find safe mode more. Never heard of that one before.
    What he does now is during startup, it happens at "Verifying DMI Pool Data data... ", and then says"disc error occurred, press Ctrl-Alt-Del to restart. " So now, it's in this endless loop.
    So, is he dead? I'm afraid to change other parameters, because it's a white box. He got 2 readers of DVD, which now seem unnecessary. It is also a RAID configuration, and I never dealt with more than 1 hard drive before. At one point, I got to a screen (no idea how) that allow me to achieve a memory check. If I remember correctly, he said that memory was fine, but there was a hardware problem?
    Any ideas?... Anyone?... Beuller? ... Beuller?

    Thanks for the reply. I finally get it working again. Find an old email of the person who built it, and fixed it without delay. There is nothing wrong with the hard drive, it was fine. In fact, 'they' were very good. The problem is in the bios settings. After I changed it to boot from the CD drive and it did not work, I put in some way something to the default settings. Big mistake with a raid system. He apparently wanted to a single hard drive, and this computer has four. Or is it 5? How long I forgot. The user then, stupid mistake.
    I will, however, never try to reinstall Windows 7 on this computer. If someone wants to give me an old, used computer, I'll try, but I got to risk it.

  • Updates made now computer won't start and power saving mode

I then turn off my computer and then put it again by pressing F8 I hope go to the options of allowing me to boot in safe mode so I can take it from there. However, this does not work and once more, he'll just right to the power saving mode and is right. Y at - it someone who has ideas for what to do. I am running Windows Vista, if this is useful.

    Hi FrankSpencer,

    Follow the steps below and see if they help.

    Step 1:

  • Satellite A60 - adapter not work and make a beep

    Hello

    Hope this is the right forum.

    I have a laptop Toshiba A60 series, I don't know if his satelliate or A60 Equium, but it is.

    In any case this week adapter does not work. I had plugged and initially it seemed that he was not charging the laptop, even if the light on the adapter on and now the lights and all I can hear is a beep - even when it is not plugged into the laptop.

    My laptop is now to zero battery so I can not even turn on, it's just flashing orange all the time.

    I guess that the adapter just does not? Do I have to get a new adapter? Please tell me I don't have a new laptop of geta - I have some stuff I want to keep.

    Thank you very much

    > My laptop is now to zero battery so I can not even turn on, it's just flashing orange all the time.
    In my opinion, this isn't a problem with AC adapter
    If computers laptops just flashing orange LED power then it means that a (possible motherboard) error has been detected.
    The flashing provides an error code and it can be read by a technician for laptop.

    In your case I would not buy a new AC adapter because you are not 100% sure what case this question. I think the laptop must be checked to see what could be the problem and then you could decide on the further handling.
