• T440s cannot boot from SSD m2?

  Hello guys, I have configured my t440s with a 1 t HARD drive.

  I just installed the 128g m2 SSD and intend to install the system on the SSD and use storage HARD drive.

  However, I've hit trouble during the installation of the system.

  I did a restore system USB and booted from that drive. There is no way to select which drive to install. So I called Lenovo. Technical support, said that the recovery image will automatically install on the main 2.5 inch HDD.

  Fine, I disconnected the HARD drive and hoping the recovery USB will be smart enough to install the system on my SSD m2.
  It worked, sort of. When I reboot the system of my main 2.5 inches 1 to HDD, I can see that the installation is complete. Program Files... BLABLABLA all of them are in the SSD m2.

  However, the laptop can NOT boot from SSD. I can see the ssd in the startup list, but it does not start.

  I put the boot to legacy mode.
  I did something wrong?
  Thank you guys!

  This will work, but not from the recovery. You need to install a Linux distribution and do a clean install of Win7/8. If you opt for a clean installation, do not forget everything first to download the drivers for network (ethernet/wlan/wwan) from the lenovo website.

  NB: I have a T440p with a m2-128 GB-mydigitalssd as the boot device, and the SSD installed sata factory as the storage data. The SSD of m2 is recognized as the second disc. In this respect. There a big difference between the T440s and the T440p in this regard.

• Satellite M45: Cannot boot from the CD-ROM or HARD drive

  I get the following messages...

  WHEN BOOTING FROM HDD: "Invalid partition table".

  At the START of the CD: "No Bootable CD in ATAPI CD-ROM.
  By so, even though I have the recovery CD and the computer can not read them.

  I tried to change the order of boot without result. Created a bootable CD Bart, who works in my other computer, but not in this laptop. Are there special drivers, I need for this CD?
  I'm out on this one.

  Thank you

  Hello

  I think that your partition on the HARD disk is damaged and so you cannot boot from the HARD drive.
  In this case, the HARD drive must be formatted completely and then you could try to install the OS.

  It seems also that your drive cannot recognize the CD bootable (WinXP?) and, therefore, it of not possible to boot from the drive.
  Well, it really stupid s :_| situation really stupid!

  However, did you try to boot from another CD? For example Microsoft Windows original CD?
  If not I recommend you to do and eventually the reader will be able to read the CD.
  If this isn't the case, so I think that the reader must be checked. Possibly it also corrupted s.

• ESXi 3.5 Update 4 virtual machines cannot boot from ISO image stored on the server

  Ok

  If I have one of my virtual machines of ESXi configured to use an ISO image sitting on my server ESXi, they cannot boot from this image.  This is after you click "ESC" during startup in order to change the startup CD-ROM.  I have this a known issue, or I'm just doing something wrong?  If I have the vms use an ISO sitting on my desktop (using Infrastructure Client) it works fine.

  Or the answer is even simpler, make sure I connect at power on.

  OK, Yes!  But some of the things we take for granted... haha...

• HP Pavilion 500-210 QE cannot boot from any hard drive.

  Good evening. As you can see on the subject, my computer just cannot boot from any hard disk that I put on it. I tried swapping the power supply, SATA cable, reset the BIOS, allowing the start legacy, changing to AHCI to IDE and RAID...

  When I get to the BIOS Setup, I see the hard drive and its features, but it will not start or show when I am trying to install a new OS. I'm not an expert, but I think that the problem could be in the motherboard SATA ports, but I'm not sure. Just to be sure, I tried another harddrive and it did not work as well.

  I was also thinking to buy a HDD external and installation of my OS on it, but I don't even know if it is possible and I would really like to have my computer working again.

  Thank you for your attention!

  Ok. That doesn't say that it is very likely that the motherboard has problems.

  Contact HP for warranty repair.

• Qosmio F60 - 14K - can't boot from SSD drive

  Hello

  Im trying to install a new SSD, but can't, because I can't boot from SSD disk, "Insert a system startup disk" works great as a USB key, even installed Windows 7 top and tried to boot from it, but with a bit of luck.

  I have not tried to switch between IDE/AHCI, but that, because I don't have this option in BIOS. I think I've tried everything I can test, all the tips/help would be much appreciated!

  And so the part of the BIOS by joke to call bios all you can change the settings of the clock and the bootorder more or less!
  Anywhy for more options?

  Henrik

  Hey Buddy,

  I'm a little confused about your ad m... You wrote that you have installed Windows 7 on it, but you can t boot?
  You get an error message during installation or what exactly is going on?

  Have you ever tried to restore the factory settings of the recovery on new SSD disk?

  Hmm I put t know what BIOS options you want but I think Qosmio F60 BIOS has enough options.
  Normally with the BIOS default settings everything works fine.

• Cannot boot from recovery CD - error: PXE - E61: Media test failure

  Hello

  It seems that the player is unable to boot from the recovery CD and the switch to boot from LAN.
  The error PXE - E61 message because the LAN cable was not connected and the laptop is not able to find a source of network boot

  I think you should check the recovery CD and perhaps you will need a new

• Cannot boot from Win 8.1 installation disk

  My mother has a Dimension 3000 system that works under XP and now I am trying to install WIndows 8.1 so that she can use banking online again. The problem is that it does not start from the installation disc.

  I have upgrade BIOS A03 and update all drivers using the driver Booster 2. Now the system is set at the first start of the CD-ROM, then HARD drive but it ends to always boot from the HARD drive. I'm at about 400 km, so I'll try to help him by phone. I tested for a start from the disc on my own XP and haven't had any problem so the drive is fine. I also ran the upgrade on its system Wizard, and everything was fine.

  I don't understand what is wrong, no matter who?

  bgtb

  Thank you. OK, so the problem is dimensions 3000 cannot boot from a DVD, only a CD?

  Since that she already bought (32-bit OEM) license and opened it, I doubt it will be returned, so I would try to make work in all cases, if that doesn't work I'll have to get a new PC.

  If copy us the contents of the DVD on a USB maybe we can boot from that? I'll give you a call tonight.

  The system is 10 years old... BIOS A00 - August 2004. The latest version of the BIOS is 8 years old February 2006. This system may be too old to be able to boot from USB.

  Other problems exist, the standard installed memory was of 0.5 to 1 GB, 1 GB is minimum requirements so it may also need to be upgraded.

  As mentioned in the video, Intel 82865 G is not supported by Intel for Windows Vista or later. For Vista/7, there are a few things that you can use so that it can work, but even then not very much. It will only use the generic driver for Windows 8.1 and the screen will be blurred.

  In addition, the systems hard drive is IDE and probable with a low capacity. The hard drive being the most likely component to fail and this type is no longer under production.

  So at least you'll need a DVD player, probably some memory and a video card. Even in this case the system doesn't always works well. I recommend wasting money in upgrading such an old machine. For the price of all these improvements, you can buy an OptiPlex 760/780 opportunity on eBay that come with a license of Windows 7. As you have already purchased the Windows 8.1, you could same source on an OptiPlex 745/755 and use your Windows 8.1 this license. All these systems will perform much better than the Dimension 3000.

  Of course, you can also look to a new system, the new Dell Inspiron is very cheap and can be done for $230:

  http://www.Dell.com/us/p/Inspiron-3646-small-desktop/PD?OC=fdcwnt7101h&model_id=Inspiron-3646-small-desktop

  While it is a low-end model compared to the Dimension 3000, it is a significant improvement.

• (Redirected) Cannot boot from the HARD drive on dell n5010 with SSD and HARD drive installed

  I have my old dell n5010 (15R Inspiron) with SSD (Samsung EVO 840 120 G) installed on the main drive Bay and the HDD (Samsung HJJ 500 G) on the optical drive Bay.

  It is a typical way to add an SSD on such an old laptop (bought from dell.com.cn in 2011).

  My Windows 10 operating system has been installed on the SSD using Samsung Data Migration software, so the previous C drive was pointless. So I formatted and installed an operating system Ubuntu 14.04 on it, hoping the grub OSs double beginning located on the HARD disk.

  However, I find no the Dell bios boot option to boot from the HARD drive installed in my optical drive Bay. All the choices are 'Hard Drive', 'Network' and 'Diagnostic '.

  But I was definitely sure that my bios program has detected the SSD and HDD with information on the main menu of the bios.

  And the LED on the optical drive Bay was immediately once I pressed the Start button on my laptop.

  As a general rule, all things were right except for options of the bios boot.

  Is there a way I can boot from HDD (with installed Ubuntu) while remaining has my SSD on the main drive Bay? I don't want to swap their positions, because the SSD is super fast on the main drive Bay.

  I have alse won't migrate 10 Windows to the HARD drive and reinstall Ubuntu on the SSD, because I'd like my windows be loaded quickly.

  Someone at - it the same problem with me?

  Any suggestion is appreciated!

  As you have a laptop, better make this laptop in the computer Forum post here:

• 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.

• 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?

• Portege A200 - cannot boot from the recovery disc

  Hi, I have a Portege A200 and an original unused Toshiba Recovery CD.

  When I go to recover, the DVD drive just turns and turns and nothing happens. I have tried different methods of booting with the disk to like, by pressing the C key, select boot from CD/DVD or just turn it on with the DVD in the drive. Same problem, the disc turns right away.

  I also checked the drivers TOshiba download page and let down when I found out that there are several drivers for the same thing, like the 3 drivers LAN! Which should I use? Also, I can confirm that the CD/DVD drive works fine because I already loaded windows XP, no problem.

  Any suggestion is appreciated.

  Kieran99.

  Hey Kieran99,

  I also think that s is not a problem of the CD/DVD drive. If it turns over and over again once he recognizes a disc but it can t be read correctly.

  Regarding your question about drivers I think that it of fairly easy. I can recommend the vendor and device ID in Device Manager. With these identification numbers, you can search on this website http://www.pcidatabase.com/ to determine the LAN controller. All that s! :)

  In addition, you can check the ID s in Device Manager, if you click the LAN card properties > Details > PCI\VEN_xxxx & DEV_xxxx

• Cannot boot from the CDROM on a satellite A100-549

  Hello.

  I think I have a problem with my BIOS because I can't start something of my CDROM.

  I removed the recovery off the DVD-ROM drive CD and restarted my computer.

  Then set up the boot sequence to boot from the CD, and nothing happened.
  My laptop just start with the normal boot sequence, I mean from the hard drive.

  I put a livecd for the CDROM drive and the effect was the same, the cd does not start and the computer began the ususal boot sequence.

  Can someone tell what is the problem?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Try to use all possible methods to set ODD as first boot device:
  1. press the key C immediately after switching on the unit, keep it down for a few seconds
  2 put in the BIOS
  3. choose F12 after departure upward and choose the CD/DVD device

  Honestly, it's very strange and if nothing helps, maybe you should contact your dealer or authorized Toshiba service partner directly. They check the disc.

  BTW: have you noticed any other problems with ODD Windows?

• Satellite A10: Cannot boot from the recovery CD after the replacement of the motherboard

  Heres one in your brain is going...

  I recently started a format hard drive via the normal recovery CD, but it never finished as long as the power cut.

  Not to worry I thought, I kept all my data and a new motherboard was on order.

  The fitting of the new Council, I tried to boot from the recovery disc and all I get is 'non-system disk '.

  Then I replaced the HARD drive with a former to check the functionality of the Cd. The old disks (I tried two) both still booted from the cd and their HDs has worked fine once in windows.

  However...

  When I try to start any of these 'good' HDs from the cd nothing happens, nada zilch. In fact they will not start even to a 'Beginner PC' recovery disk either, so it's not the Toshy recovery disk.

  Another weird thing is when I go into the bios by pressing ESC the power upward and then F1 and try to change the boot sequence and press end to exit and save, nothing happens.

  If the CD is not defective because it is recognized in windows
  The recovery disks may not be at fault because the other disks also fail to start.

  This is not a drive problem hard as other HDs start normally (but not Cd)

  This could be a fault on the new motherboard, perhaps a problem with bios, or the sequence of events suggests something else?

  Any suggestions would be welcome

  Hello

  Long story. In my opinion you should write is a little shorter but with more useful information.
  I am interested in one thing: have you got a new mainboard or used one?

  To be honest, I'm also confused with the recovery disc you are using. The history is confusing.

  > so this isn't the Toshy recovery disk.
  Can you please tell us what kind of recovery CD are you using exactly?
