BIOS are not pressing not < F2 >

the BIOS Setup does not appear on the pressing

Hello

Check with support of the manufacturer of the system (motherboard for customized systems manufacturer).

If F2 is the correct key and you're typing to immediately turn on the computer or
reboot and the BIOS does not appear then there are hardware problems. The simplest fix
people would be a dead CMOS battery.

==========================================

If necessary to replace the CMOS battery on a laptop you probably need a real computer store
(no leeks and glances at a BestBuy or BigBox stores) or the manufacturer of your system support.
It is easier to replace the CMOS on a PC battery.

Battery CMOS is also known as RTC battery

  • Satellite P20 does not start - BIOS are not displayed

    I have a Satellite P20 and recently it does not start. When I press the power button that disk HARD will light up and it will check the cd-rom drive, but the screen is blank and will not display the bios screen. I can only turn it off by pressing the power button.

    Is it likely to be a hardware problem? I'll try to remove the RTC battery if possible to see if this resets the bios.

  • Satellite P755 - Bios is not accessible, but Windows works

    Hi all

    I have a big problem with my computer. My Bios does not appear...
    At the exit of Windows 8, I did a full format on my computer to accommodate this new OS with beauty. Some time later, I installed Ubuntu 12.04 in Dual-Boot.
    One of the two facilities are doing? lost me the BIOS, let me explain:

    Knowing that my computer is a Toshiba, normally, when I start, the first image that appears on the screen is the Toshiba logo and down ' press F * to access the BIOS. " But I have no more of this logo, instead, I Dual-Boot option appears asking me to choose one of the two BONES (I think it's the GRUB, I'm not sure, but he was purple, so...). After selecting one of the two BONES, I go straight to the page load of the chosen one.

    I didn't get worse, so I left it because it wasn't bothering me... until last night.
    My computer was getting a bit slow, I decided to format it again, but as I said, I have no BIOS, so not boot via DVD at startup. I had to format by Windows, leaving behind the Windows.old folder on the hard disk. But I wanted to fix my famous problem at the same time, so I decided to uninstall Ubuntu and install Windows 7 instead of 8.

    Everything was going well with uninstall and install.

    Win7 is restarted, still no Toshiba logo, and I get the Dual-Boot option, as before, asking me to choose between Ubuntu and Win7 (I already uninstalled Ubuntu), but this time, the screen is not "purple", it is black...

    When I'm on the Dual-Boot, there are only two buttons that work, the F8 and F10.

    When I press F10, I have this:

    Change startup options: Windows 7
    path-windows-system32-winload.exe
    Score: 2
    hard drive: 97f097f0

    / Noexecute = optin

    When I press F8, I enter the menu of Windows repair, where there restore Windows, command prompt, repair Windows, etc...
    I tried a few things, typed on the command line like fixmbr, etc, but nothing worked

    I'm stuck on Windows 7 without Bios and a Dual - Boot does not work, I don't know what to do...
    I've looked everywhere where my problem comes from, but does not have the awnser.

    For more information, I have a Toshiba P755.

    Well, I hope someone answer, even though I know that this problem is a bit weird...

    Thanks in advance to all who will try ^^

    I think that the dual boot is always available in the Master Boot Record (MBR) and so this double menu boot appears to turn on/off the device.
    But this should not prevent the notebook to access the BIOS.
    Usually, you can access the BIOS by pressing F2 while turning on the laptop.
    I recommend that you press this several times in the line.

    However, I think that the reason why the Toshiba screen projection does not appear is simple: in my view the QuickStart has been enabled in the BIOS.

    You will find the option called startup speed in BIOS-> Advanced tab.
    Usually its normal value.

    If his play on Fast, the BIOS should start from disk built-in HARD (or SSD), the laptop would support only the LCD and keyboard internal and does not display Toshiba Startup logo. Therefore, put again to normal.

    In which case you would not be able to access the BIOS by pressing F2, I recommend to remove the portable computer HARD drive and turn on the unit without the HARD drive.
    Then press F2 to enter the BIOS

    Your comments and good luck would be appreciated,

  • BIOS DOES NOT SEE ANY SATA HARD DRIVES

    I recently (about three weeks) ago added a 250 GB Samsung SSD EVO 840 to my desktop HP Pavilion a6437C PC 2008.

    This SSD has been configured with a clean install of Windows XP.

    The original 500 GB HARD drive (on which I kept the original, fully functional installation of XP on one partition and all my data on another), was retained and was used primarily for the storage of data... even if I left the XP partition instead of use as a backup OS.

    Once I have everything configured, up and running, both drives worked fine in their assigned duties for at least two weeks.

    The PC is on when I left the House earlier today.  I came home and the power of the PC was turned off (I don't know if there was a power failure or other event).  When I turned on the rear PC, I got the dreaded "Disk Boot Failure" message.  Restarted, press F10 to view the BIOS, and I noticed that only two CD/DVD drives have been detected.  Ni the SSD or HARD drive have been detected.  A ran Diagnostics PC - Doctor F9 and got BIOHD-2 (no drive detected)... what I already knew.

    I've been Googling vigorously, and my guess is that, since the TWO discs are not recognized, and the problem that manifests all of a sudden, the problem lies with the SATA controller or motherboard itself.  I think that it's extremely likely that both discs would fail completely and at the same time. Can anyone suggest what I could take so I can verify or disprove this?  Also, it's an old PC so it prob'ly is not worth starting to replace the mobo... is possible to replace just the SATA controller (assuming that it is the culprit)?

    Maybe it's time to bite the bullet and get a new job.  I discovered that I can't use many of the features of my new SSD fancy, because the material a6437c and firmware doesn't support them.

    Any other suggestions would be appreciated as well.  Thanks in advance!

    Laiki, welcome to the forum.

    You did a very nice job of explaining your situation; nothing left out.

    Because the computer is older, I go to this from a different angle.  I recommend that you check the power supply (PSU) to see if it has failed, because the computer turns off for no apparent reason.  If there is no power to the system, you will not get a boot.  The power supply can cause many problems we don't necessarily attach to it.  Here's a guide to help you troubleshoot it.

  • Icons, twitter bolts on the site are not displayed?

    According to the bounding, icons pictures, twitter bolts on the site are not displayed?
    Help please?

    Many sites now use downloadable fonts to create their icons instead of the traditional image files. So, there are some Firefox settings that might be a factor, as well as the NoScript extension, if you use this (blocked objects).

    (1) in the dialog box fonts Advanced, unchecking the checkbox which allows the site to use its own choice of fonts. To check that:

    "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > content > button "Advanced".

    Here you must "allow pages to choose their own fonts.

    (2) on the deactivation of fonts downloaded in: config. It's less likely, or you remember probably not, but here's how to check on it.

    • In a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.
    • In the search box at the top of the list, type or paste the gfx and make a pause so that the list is filtered
    • If gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled preference is bold and user, set false, double-click it to return it true.

    This seems useful.

    I'm changing the the font size for incoming messages. Thunderbird "helps," says click on Tools/Options/display/setting in the advanced form. When I click on 'Tools' or use "Alt + T", 'Options' are not listed. Where can I go to get the "options"? I am running Windows 8.1 if it makes a difference.

    ALT + T you should get there. Options is under Tools on the menu bar. Pressing alt makes the menu bar appear if not already displayed.

    If you use the AppMenu (square with 3 lines) button click the AppMenu, hover over the Options, and then select Options.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

    • Do not click on the reset button on the start safe mode window or make changes.

    Also, make sure that your security (firewalls, anti-virus) software is blocking the files or modify response headers causing Firefox to get the pages as text/plain instead of text/html.

    You can check that in tools > Page Info > general and in the net Web Console log (Web Developer > Web Console;) CTRL + SHIFT + K).

    • Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.
