• System does not boot, get the white screen after preparation for auto repair

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite with Windows 8 and yesterday there were some ongoing update and must restart.  When the computer reboots, it took some time and then I got a blue screen (very quickly) who said something as she encountered a problem and needs to fix (it is really fast and I can't see the whole text).  Then goes and comes back as it is booting (with the toshiba logo) and he says prepare auto repair.  Then it goes to a white screen. I tried to get into the HARD drive recovery (power with F12) and when I select HDD Recovery and confirm Yes, it just goes to a blank screen.  I went into the Setup utility (powering now F2 while) and has chosen default install and who does not either (although it has fixed the problem with my keyboard backlight does not). Support of Toshiba said that it is the operating system, not the hard drive.  But I need a drive recovery media that will scan all.  Anyone know other options?  I have a disc of recovery of a Microsoft coming 8 Pro (dell).  Would it be an option, to use it (I got it on a flash drive) and start-up of that?  Thanks for the help.

  Hi John,.

  Thank you for the update.

  Given that you want to use the Windows 8.1 recovery disk, you won't perhaps able to start Windows 8 using Windows 8.1 because the computer may not be able to find the files of Windows 8 start to recover.

  Yes, you pouvez install 8.1 Windows using the recovery disk. However, you may not be able to perform the upgrade option when installing Windows 8.1. When you click install now and follow the instructions, you must choose the Custom Advanced option to continue installation. Choose Advanced custom options will create a folder in the C: drive (or any other partition when you do not want to install) named the Windows.old folder which expected to have all of your files and documents of previous installation and are accessible.

  Make sure you have the drivers available for the devices installed on the computer as network card, drivers etc. of video card you install Windows 8.1.

  Hope the information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

  Thank you.

• Satellite Pro M40 sometimes starts with white screen

  Hello!

  I'm pulling out my hair with this problem.

  For no definable reason that according to me, my laptop will start with a blank screen.
  Not all the time, but, seemlingly, whenever it feels like I need extra help stress on my plate.
  For the most part, with perseverance (starting with or without battery, with or without the adapter, with or without pci with or without mouse usb network card and any combination of these elements), it ends by lights correctly, but sometimes Nothing that I won't get it to start and show me a screen.

  My M40 is 4 months old.
  Since it's purchase sent to Toshiba for repair twice for this problem, when I have exhausted myself trying to coax it into life. Whenever he was sent by saying either the problem has been fixed, or that he had no problem found/all systems ok / "it works very well for us, after testing all week."

  This week [edit: it was Wednesday], I sent it to me, and Yes, I checked the trunk upwards and gave a sigh of relief that there is an image on the screen.
  I wrote a letter to this topic a day or two later (that day he first gave me a screen white, but on closing down and restart, it was fine).
  Today, however, not a week later, I have a white screen again.

  I am reluctant to send for repair again, due to the stress involved and the time it takes and the technicians speaking it works for them.

  If anyone can help, or was faced with a similar problem, please respond.

  Oh, and the solution does not lie with the keys FN + F5, because I tried several times... unless there is a way to 'special' to build on them, I'm not in the running for!

  [Edit]: several hours later, as a demonstration of her bored this problem is, my screen is once more working.

  I went on once again, at the time and no joy. Then, after switching OFF, count to ten and the restart, eureka.

  I'll update with news as it happens. If there are all the necessary specific details about "switching on the environment", just let me know.

• Satellite L305D-S5934 does not start - white screen

  I have a problem with a 2 years satellite l305d-s5934.

  In turning on, the power light turns on, but the hard drive light does not work and the screen remains blank.
  I tried removing the battery and reboot without it after pressing the power button, but nothing changes.

  Any advice on fixing the problem would be welcome.

  Thank you

  Hello

  Remove the battery, disconnect the power adapter and leave the laptop disconnected for a longer period of time. After that connect the two parties can try unit lights up once more

  If it does not, check the RAM. Remove the single module and test two slots with each module.
  Sure, it might be possible that the two modules are faulty and that the procedure could not help you.

  In the worst case the motherboard may be affected in one such case that mobo replacement would be useful.

• Satellite Pro 4030 boots with white screen - works OK on an external monitor

  My sat 4030 pro, Vibrio W98SE, boots to a white screen. When I press the lid closer, or use Fn/F5 it turns black. It works fine on an external monitor.

  Hi Robert,.

  If your screen is displayed correctly on an external monitor, then it indicates that your chip graohics still work correctly, then you the problem must be with the LCD itself, the FL inverter or the connecting cable to the main Board. I would recommend that you contact an authorized Service partner who can perform other tests to diagnose the fault.

  Kind regards

• Satellite L20 260 won't boot to the top, every time it freezes with no reason

  Hi all

  I have a problem with my satellite of sad, after 3-4 days I installed a new operating system (tried with XP SP2 and Kubuntu) system does not boot to the top, every time it freezes with no reason, the only way is to perferom a new installation of the OS. What is a hardware problem, perhaps related to the RAM or HARD drive?
  x 10, Daniele.

  Hello

  It's not easy to tell if the problem is software or hardware related.
  You must install the OS from the Toshiba Recovery CD and again test the functionality

  If the laptop won't boot again freezes immediately after that installation of recovery CD, and then it could be a hardware problem.
  You can try using MemTest 3.5 tool.
  It checks the memory of a malfunction.

  My son satellite C50 won't boot to the top. It is connected to the power grid and will arrive at the password screen but as soon as you type goes into shutdown. Any suggestions please?

  You write about Windows or BIOS password?

  In any case, on this virtual path, it is not easy to give an exact explanation what can be wrong there.
  Your son of many important data stored on this machine? If this isn't the case, you should try to reinstall the OS and test it with the factory settings.

  What you can try is to enter the BIOS settings and leave the machine 5 minutes to see if cell phone will go OFF. If this isn't the case, set the BIOS to the default settings and try again.

  Is the cooling fan may be strong at the start of the machine?

  Any help would be appreciated, I have all the files I need sustained if I just need to know how can I reformat from here.

  Thank you
  C_J

  Hello

  First of all the good news: it seems that there s nothing wrong with the equipment and the installation of the new operating system should solve small problems starting.

  And now for the bad news: I think you need to format the HARD drive and you will lose the files and stored information.

  > I have the original disc of starting but I can t he can start from the CD drive
  How have you tried to boot from the CD? Don t press the R key, but you have to either press F12 for the Boot Manager or press the C key immediately after starting the laptop. (The CD should be pre-installed)
