Boot from the disk ESATA on the Qosmio F50 - 10Z

Hello

is it possible to boot from an external drive using the ESATA port?
I have BIOS 1.60 installed but I don't see an option for ESATA?

What a USB? Laptop is a Qosmio F50 - 10Z

Thank you

I think that it of not possible to start from eSATA. The BIOS should provide this type of functionality.
I've never tried, but I think that's not possible.

As far as I know, it must be possible to boot from a USB device.
The BIOS does not support this then try it.

  • Screen not switch on the Qosmio F50 - 10Z

    Hello

    Recently, I received my laptop Toshiba Qosmio F50 - 10Z (yesterday), I am very pleased with. However I seem to have a problem with the screen does not reverse when you start the laptop in sleep or hibernation mode. I tried to change the output screen (Fn + F5) but it makes no difference, and the laptop screen is always off. I need to cut my machine (5 seconds by pressing the button / stop) and restart manually. Then, the screen lights up again.

    It doesn't seem to be drivers updated compared to those I already have / preinstalled.

    I hope someone can help solve my problem.

    Thank you

    The story is really strange for me also
    I'm 100% sure that Toshiba provides new laptops and if you bought a laptop with a few scratches then you should blame your laptop for the same problem dealer

    Maybe the dealer of the laptop used this camera for a show or similar

  • Problem on the Qosmio F50 - 10Z card reader

    I had this problem for a while, he started with the original OS Vista 32-bit, so I decided to buy the cd to upgrade toshiba for windows 7, after the update level, everything worked fine, except for the card reader, regardless of how many times I have installed/uninstalled, installed the driver, it wouldn't work!

    So I used the recovery cd, not once BUT TWICE, and nothing helps I sent to repair.
    I received a message on a piece of paper telling me that it would work on the original operating system, I thought that they had something fixed.
    Then I used the recovery cd AGAIN and to my excitement thrown short to see any yellow explanation points I put a micro sd card (2 GB) that worked when I bought this laptop first and got no response.
    The biggest problem is that my warranty is now closed!, so basically, I've been HIT MORE, cause the memory card slot does NOT WORK and it wasn't a software problem!

    Any reccomendations?

    Hi karimtarek,

    Which driver version you are using on Vista and Windows 7? My Qosmio F50 is running Windows 7 and I m using the version of the driver on Toshiba page 1.00.29.02.
    You use the same version?

    In addition, it would be interesting to know if the SD card has worked once you have received the notebook service center back. Have you tested before or did you start installation recovery immediately?

    Have you tried different brands of SD cards? I always use the SanDisk Extreme cards because they did not no problem.
    In addition, you could try updating the BIOS. Maybe this works if you are using an older version

    Last but not least if it s does not always work and you think that it s a hardware malfunction, ask at the center of service again. If you speak a bit with technicians, maybe they can fix it as a gesture of goodwill.

    Good luck! :)

  • Qosmio G15 never boots from the recovery CD-ROM

    Hi all

    I have Toshiba Qosmio G15 (Win XP Media Center Edition). I installed Phoenix Recover Pro 6 with success. Now the laptop restarts and after the manufacturer LOGO all I get is ERR: TOS0002

    I tried using the recovery CD and it never boots up the CD.
    I tried to use the boot CD boot and always get the ERR: TOS0002

    Help, please.

    Hello

    I m not 100% sure if the laptop supports the RAID or not but most often the boot from the restore CD should work without any problems. As suggested by Reavers, there could be a conflict with the partitions on the HARD disk.
    You should try to format the whole HARD drive and then try to boot from the Toshiba restore CD.

    Hi dynamitenews

     

    1. are you able to boot to the desktop?
    2. what happens when you try to start the computer?

     

    You must have the DVD drive to start the computer using the disk, you cannot use the external hard drive to do the same thing.

    Also I suggest you to make sure you have defined the start as CD/DVD-Rom as the first choice option in the BIOS. See below the help link-
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/BIOS-frequently-asked-questions

    If nothing is done, then you can contact the manufacturer support for assistance on setting up the correct boot sequence and check.

    BIOS WARNING-
    Change (CMOS) BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

     

    I hope this helps.

  • Boot from the external drive via eSATA

    Hi all
    I have an external drive which I'm currently starting as a USB device.  The outside also has an eSATA port that I want to be able to boot from. However, when I go into the bios boot area to choose the boot order, there is no option to start using eSATA, USB only.  The Port of the computer's eSATA/USB port.
    This is so my question, how can I get the bios boot option to be able to select an eSATA?
    Thanks for the help

    From what I can find, HP didn't include the option to boot from the port eSATA on this computer.

    Many others have asked about this on the HP forum.

    I would check with HP support, however, since it is the BIOS that must support this function.

    Windows cannot change it.

    See this thread.

  • boot from the disk HARD second 4540 probook s

    Hello

    I replaced the optical drive with a second HDD on 4540 ProBook s. I read of this 2nd HARD drive but I could not configure BIOS to boot from it, and boot device options lists only the first HARD drive.

    It's pretty common. Simply because the BIOS is written to boot from an optical drive connected to this port does not mean that he will start on a hard drive. I don't think there's any way to boot from the hard drive adapter in the optical Bay.

  • Pavilion p6 2408eb Desktop PC: cannot access the bios to boot from the disk

    Hello

    I have virus and spyware on my PC. I want to reinstall my drive c with windows 7 instead of 8.1 or at least perform a system recovery, but I can't boot from the drive.

    The only items on google I can find state I must disable secure boot and then enter the bios to set the boot order so it starts on the first disc.

    The problem is that my monitor is idle (power light flashes) when I try to enter the BIOS. I tried to type esc/f11/f1 or press del to enter bios but my monitor then is idle and never enters the BIOS or go to the windows start screen. If it recognizes clearly that I typed bios key because he won't go to the windows startup screen after that pressing said key.

    I also tried recovery windows and tool HP system recovery but at a certain point, it asks me to restart the pc and here again he is stuck at the idle monitor... I never see the start-up of the screen or the other, one that says "press x to enter the bios. My computer will always directly to the windows splash screen once I started.

    Any idea what I might try next?

    Hello

    Consult this publication article before attempting the downgrade of your PC to Windows 7. I have no recommemd making a downgrade on Windows 8 is superior to Windows 7.

    The default settings for the BIOS of your PC 8 version are: inherited and secure boot disabled.

    Erasing the CMOS memory will bring back the default values and then you should be able to start the Windows 7 installation media.

    This similar model PC will have Windows 7 drivers.

    If you have not created the external HP recovery media then you must order at HP if you decide to go back to Windows 8.

  • Qosmio G30: Boot from HDD external ESATA

    Dear all,

    I am trying to boot from a disk external HARD connected with an express/34 card that has a START function. It works like one charm on another laptop manufacturers because the express/34 card is recognized without problems. I can choose the external sata HARD drive as a bootdevice.

    My BIOS (V3.5) Qosmio G30 seems not to have this option. Any suggestions? Thank you for your comments!

    These function the BIOS boot options.
    The BIOS that is installed on the G30 is no option. So unfortunately, but there is nothing to do!

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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.
