• Of failure, white screen MacBook Pro HARD drive try to boot from the external HARD drive

  Hello

  I have a 2008 Macbook Pro which is having some problems, I was able to fix them, but eventually the hard drive failed. I know that because at startup until it would have a white screen Uni (no logo) and you can hear a clicking on in the lower left corner. I thought initially it was a memory problem, but after opening and verification of memory, it's clearly the hard drive.

  I solved this problem temporarily (until I can replace the HARD disk) by installing El captain on an external HARD disc and start from that. Here's the twist, I couldn't he can begin to El captain, I tried CMD + R, CMD + OPT + R, CMD + OPT + R + P and now shift. Everything that's happened would be that clicks would cease to release the keys.

  I left the macbook on while I'm at work, when I got home it was on the screen to connect the external HARD drive.

  I accidentally closed the macbook yesterday and again once when I tried to log on, I could not and I left it on a white screen while I was sleeping. There is a possibility that he may have launched from the HARD drive when I get home, but if not, is there something that escapes me to force do this?

  See you soon

  Usually start up to a blank screen without the Apple Logo, may report one of the following:

  • Hardware failure
  • Boot drive is not recognized as valid and updated updated
  • OS X essential software is missing, hurt moved or renamed or corrupt
  • A firmware update is necessary

  No matter who, in order to boot from an external drive "bootable", you would normally hold down the Option key until you get a screen that offers a number of devices to try to boot from.

  Alternatively, you can try holding down the C key to try to boot from the external drive.

  If none of these startup options work, then the bootable disc or the USB port on your MacBook Pro can be the question.

  Since you have a Mac pre-2013, if you hold down the D key while booting, the built-in Apple Hardware Test should start up.  This can help to identify hardware problems.

• NB510 - boot from the SD card?

  Hello

  I have a question related to booting from SD cards.
  As my NB510 has no optical device, I thought to use an SD with Linux on it to boot from.

  The reason is that sometimes I need Linux and I don't wan to lose my Windows partition or another partition of my HDD with a 2nd OS.

  My experience is that more than one OS at a disk always causes unnecessary trouble.
  Unfortunately, it seems that the NB510 does not boot from the SD card.

  I created it with the Toshiba SD Memory Format Utility and "UNetbootin" to create a card with the last OpenSUSE Linux.

  When, in from the laptop and press F2 (or F12), all available drives be filed - but not my SD card (Yes, it was inserted). BIOS Insyde H2O also doesn't seem to provide the SD card as boot drive.

  So is it possible to get my NB 510 booting from SD card?

  Greetings from the Germany

  Hello

  Why you boot from the USB flash key t n?
  As much as I know the NB510 support the start of disk HARD primary, Network (LAN), USB, USB HDD and USB WEIRD memory.

  If booting from USB is certainly possible.

  It's one of the problems, the bios, the parameter does not have the ability to boot from the CD/DVD.

  There are only three choices:

  start from laptop, multibay

  boot from the hard drive to laptop or computer ethernet startup.

  I also have uppdated the bios, but nothing changes.

  'Notebook multibay shoes' should work - the CD is installed in the multi-baies slot.

• Re: Satellite C650D-12J refuses to boot from the recovery DVD

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite C650D-12J which has recently been ravaged by a virus and now refuses to start. Whenever he tries to boot into Windows, it restarts and blue screens.

  I ordered the Toshiba recovery media as the most simple solution is to recover the laptop and restore the default settings.

  However, when I insert the recovery DVD and choose to boot from the CD/DVD get them all is a loading bar that turns to a black screen with the white cursor. It's her!

  Can anyone suggest a solution?

  Kind regards

  Hi MrChris,

  You have the same problem if you try to reinstall Microsoft Windows or just Toshiba Recovery disk?

• Satellite C650D is not booting from the CD

  My mother has a Toshiba Satellite C650D and password protect the hard disk. She forgot the HARD drive password today! I want to format the drive and reinstall Windows. I changed the boot sequence in the BIOS to boot from the CD drive and I like it start I press F12, but it goes directly to the HARD drive password screen. I change the setting to prevent fast boot but still no change.

  The only way I can boot from the CD is to remove the HARD drive.

  Are there any other settings that I can change to make it boot from the CD?

  I'm afraid there is nothing you can do about Mr. check please follow the documents:

• Equium A100 - unable to boot from the bootable disc

  Equium A100-549

  My son s partner has a 2 year old Toshiba which has become slow over time. I had done a backup of the system with office installed etc using Acronis. Anyway, decided to rid running Acronis and recorded image. The program runs normally, and he falls down to a denial of service as the ready to restore screen. It is then with the cursor flashing as usual and then it crashes, and doesn't allow you to access the image.

  I am that it can be altered, so reinstalled Acronis. Make an Acronis boot disk to run the image, and he does not take into account the disk boots directly to the normal hard drive (IDE 0) still no joy. Then I tried the restore of laptops disc. In the BIOS, I said peripheral CD as everything first and also the restore disc says place in the drive and turn off.

  While it starts up press F12, which brings a menu allowing you to boot from the CD drive. I did, but it doesn t appear to look at the CD and just load windows from the HARD drive. I removed the CD for system devices and rebooted. He found and added the new device to herself and asked to reset. Still no joy!

  Scanned with Norton, but still not good. Norton removal. The result is the same. Able to read the CD and also write to it as well. Diagnosis Toshibas ran on the unit and everything seems ok with it.

  Tried to make a bootable flash stick on floppy, but it is ignored, well specified the amorçage using other devices.
  Basically, it seems that I can t get it to watch prior CD onto the HARD drive.

  Flashing the BIOS would heal it? -Registry error causes this?

  Y at - it everywhere where I can talk to someone from Toshiba about this?

  Any info / help much appreciated

  Hello Nick

  Put the delivered device DVD recovery DVD and turn on the laptop. Press the C button and keep it pressed for a few seconds. This will force the DVD player to read the DVD, and I hope that you will be able to use the DVD of recovery for the installation of the OS.

  If possible, test it with some other bootable CD installations. Please post the results.

• Cannot boot from the HARD drive in AHCI on Satellite C mode

  I tried to get this satellite working for these past two weeks. I think I've tried all of the suggestions I found on this forum and others.

  My problem: I can not boot from drive c: in AHCI, only in compatibility mode. I can boot from the D: (recovery partition) in AHCI mode. When the recovery is complete, and when it gets to the first reboot, try to boot from the system newly created on the C:, I return the compatibility mode.

  I replaced the drivers on the C: drive.

  I extracted the AHCI drivers and copied in the root of a USB bootable. I try to do a clean install of windows 7, I get to where it shows the partitions. He tells me that it can not load the system on any of the partitions, I the AHCI mode (if the mode is set to compatibility it will load the system in one partition).
  I select "load drivers" and select the driver in the root directory, it loads the driver and then reports that it can not load the system on any of the partitions.

  I'm puzzled. I acquired pilots everywhere, the last set of drivers I used to try to do a clean install, I have acquired the Canadian official Toshiba site.

  Does anyone have any suggestions?

  Concerning
  Boyde

  BTW, this is Windows 7, I'm trying to get back to.

  Can someone help me with this?

• NB100 will not boot from the XP CD in the external USB CD/DVD drive

  I try to install XP Home in my NB100
  The netbook still refuses to boot from the XP CD. It's just not more
  Returns the current operating system (Ubuntu) or give the error "Could not find NTLDR" dreaded.
  And yet - it will boot from an Ubuntu Live CD disk perfectly fine, AND
  If I connect this external hard drive on my computer Windows 7, (another Toshiba
  Portable satellite) that the machine starts quite successfully since the XP CD
  in the same external drive!

  Can anyone throw any light on what is happening on Earth on?

  Hello

  There are various reasons why this error message:
  In most cases this error because the laptop is trying to boot from a HARD drive or flash drive that is not configured correctly. Maybe the drive is not bootable or not compatible.

  It would also be possible that some sectors on the HARD disk, HARD drive failures are corrupt or BIOS is damaged. NTLDR error messages may also appear if the master boot record is damaged.

  In your case I recommend that you format the first HARD drive before booting from the hard drive CD7DVD external using Win XP CD.

  By the way: you must add SATA driver to CD Win XP using nLite.
  The SATA driver is placed on the European driver Toshiba page in the Intel Storage Manager

  The SATA driver is needed to recognize the HDD by Win XP!

• How to force boot from the CDROM on Satellite M40 183

  I have error in the MBR on the drive in my laptop, it doesent from disk, before I had put into hibernation system (Windows XP).

  Now, I can't force boot from the CDROM
  in the bios, CDROM is selected as first boot-> nothing
  on bootking, I am pressing end F12 choose CDROM icons-> notking
  on bootking by pressing 'c'-> notking

  and I have a problem:
  -system does not boot
  -recovery disk will not start, and I can't fix it :/

  I'm sure that the cd drive is right.

  I recognized before, makes this hibernation, it is imposible to boot from the cdrom

  but there must be a way to force anyway.

  Thanks for any help.

  Mateusz

  Hello Mateusz

  The hibernation mode cannot be responsible for this kind of question. I'm sure that this option is properly put to the test and if there is some sort of suspicion it won't be available more.
  If you have any problem with MBR, it can also be damaged by some kind of virus. As far as I know that the easiest way to repair or rebuild MBR is to run the standard Microsoft called FDISK utility with a parameter/MBR, as
  A:\ > FDISK. EXE/MBR
  FDISK is a standard utility included in MS-DOS, Windows 95, 98, me.

• Satellite M40 - cannot boot from the recovery cd after format HARD drive

  Hello

  After my Satellite M40 - 133 being affected by the virus of security internet I had to wipe my hard drive. The virus wouldn't let me do anything, boot without failure or system restore. I wiped the disk and it still wouldn't load up. That's why I had to do a full erase of the disk including the hidden partition.

  After doing his now do not let my boot from the CD of restoration as it says invalid partition as his search for files that must be on the hidden partition. What can I do to get it started. I'm not bothered about to recover anything on the disc. If I remove the hard drive and put the recovery cd in, it excludes the disc and begins to start until he fails to see the hard drive.

  Outwardly I can link the drive to another pc and he sees it as a storage device so I'm glad that there is nothing wrong with the hard ware - help please

  Hello

  Can you see the HARD drive with all the details in the BIOS?
  If this isn't the case, then this means that the HARD drive is faulty or not fully compatible.
  If you can see the HARD drive in the BIOS, then this means that the HARD drive is compatible.

  But this should not affect booting from a bootable CD.
  Even if the HD would not be recognized in the BIOS, you should be able to boot from the CD. For example a live Linux CD has not only any disk HARD because the BONE would not be installed on the HARD drive, but it loads into RAM.

  The question is; Why you are unable to boot from any CD?
  Maybe the discs are scratched or the CD/DVD drive cannot read the disc more because of problems of laser lens
  If possible, try to copy/burn the Windows CD using another computer, and then try to start using the copied disc.

  > Thanks, but how do I boot from a cd rom usb drive? I don't have any usb floppy drive
  You need to first boot the bootable disc using a bootable diskette floppy drive!
  Then a driver would be loaded that allows you to boot from the CD/DVD drive

  As far as I know it of not possible to boot from the external USB HDD.
  I found several postings on similar themes and it seems that it is only possible to boot from the external USB FDD, HDD, ODD and LAN are sometimes also PCMCIA card.
