• 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.

  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 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.

• 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?

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

  Can someone help me with this?

• Satellite A200 - cannot boot from the recovery disc - code 1

  I have Vista business and my laptop is running slow and is full of rubbish.
  I have in the past used my drive recovery to completely re - install vista and start from a fresh version.

  However, I tried this once and it says that it cannot boot from cd - code 1.

  Can someone tell me what it is and how to reinstall vista?

  Hmm. strange.
  Are you sure you have the right recovery disk?
  Are you abele to boot using another drive as MS Win XP CD or Linux CD bootable?

• 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?

• Cannot start from the CD in my Satellite P300-23F

  Hello

  I'm trying to fix the old laptop from my brother. It's a Toshiba satellite p300-23f. The laptop did not work well, so he bought another. I think he might have a problem with the HARD drive, but I'm not sure about this and want to try to format the HARD drive and reinstall the operating system.

  When I start from the disc HARD I have no problem, insiders of OS normally, and I can 'use' laptop. The problem is when I try to boot from the OS CD. I get this message "Media test failure, check cable". I know the CD works, because recently I have instaled the operating system with this CD on another computer. I know that the CD player (not sure if it is called like this, but I think you understand what I mean) also works very well, because I tried different CD and it worked.

  I've tried pressing F12 and boot from CD it and also tried to change the BIOS and put the CD in the first place, but it does not work.

  No idea what's going on? Is it possible to make it work?

  Stand by.
  When Windows is completely loaded, you can use the optical disk drive and it reads all CDs and DVDs?
  When you put your Windows Windows installation disc can see the contents of the disc in Windows Explorer?

  Maybe you can use the CD but not DVD. check it out please.

• It is not possible to boot from the CD bootable on Satellite S5200-902

  Hello

  I have a Satellite S5200-902 and it was really good to use for me actually... Once I received a system error message and might start Windows more. Anyway... I tried to reinstall the OS, but I can't boot from the recovery CD. The CD is ok because I tried it on my other computer. I press F12 for the boot menu option it shows these items as HARD - disk drive - CD drive.

  I choose CD and nothing happens. He always tries to start from the HARD drive. I installed the Windows on the HD satellite on my other computer and it worked very well. He has installed the system but if I put the HD Toshiba Satellite does not start windows. It blocks the laptop.

  BIOS version is 1.30 and I don't know how to install and update the bios 1.8 or something on it, because I don't know how to install it without windows. I now have no idea how to go ahead?

  Can anyone here help me out please because I have no idea?
  Please someone help me ASAP because I need the laptop for work.
  Thank you

  Best regards.

• Booting from the cdrom

  Just got a brand-new 4235 ID device but there 2.2.5.1 on it. I have the

  3.0 (1) S4 upgrade CD. But how do you repair the unit to boot from it? I have a pc keyboard and monitor directly connected to the probe. Do I have to change the boot settings in the configuration utility? What keys used to emulate a 'Stop' + 'A' a Sun keyboard?

  Any help would be appreciated.

  You are right on 4230 devices. They carried before we changed our method of installation/restoration and are not configured to boot from the default CD-ROM drive. I don't remember when change rolled in the production of 4210, but all * currently * navigation devices are configured with the correct boot order by default.

  The instructions for the upgrade/recovery of sensors using the reference of the CD (version 2.5 and later) checking the boot order in the BIOS, but do not go into the details of how change it.

  For SNS and IDS-4220/4230 platforms:

  1. enter in the BIOS by pressing F2 during boot of the system (at the prompt).

  2. go to the "Start" menu and select "Boot Device Priority"

  3 select a boot device and use '+' or '-' to move the unit upwards or downwards in the list until the boot order is correct (removable devices > ATAPI CD-ROM > hard).

  4. press to exit the Boot Device Priority menu.

  5. go to the menu "Exit", then select "Exit Saving Changes".

  For the IDS 4210:

  1. enter in the BIOS by pressing F2 during boot of the system (at the prompt).

  2. go in the menu 'Boot.

  3. Select a boot device (1st, 2nd, etc.), then press.

  4. Select the appropriate device in the list (diskette, CDROM ATAPI or IDE-HDD) and press again.

  5. check the changes match the following:

  1st boot Device: [disk]

  2nd boot Device: [ATAPI CDROM]

  3rd boot device: [drive HARD IDE-]

  6. go to the menu "Exit", then select "Exit Saving Changes".

  Hi the prey,

  ·         What is the brand and model of the computer?

  You should check the settings of the computer BIOS (Basic Input\Output System) to boot from the CD/DVD. Check the manual or the support of the computer Web site for the same.

  Note: Be careful when you change the BIOS settings. The BIOS interface is designed for advanced users, and it is possible to change a setting that can prevent your computer from starting properly.

  Run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor to see if your computer is compatible to install Windows 7.

• (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!

• Qosmio G35: Cannot boot from the recovery disc

  I'm in trouble from the screen of my Qosmio G35 showing lines vertical, gel, then a loop on and outside.

  I used the Toshiba factory restore disc to reformat and the problem remains, I went further and chose the maquis of the HARD drive option. Bad choices made by this beginner, because now it does not recognize the drive at all, prompting me to "initialize".

  Lines remain, but it is not the material of the screen happens during some process that I follow, OK.

  A friend more computer over the phone prompted me to go into the BIOS, but we cannot access them. Research on the web, I tried the F12 suggested, but this does not work, just push me through in a screen offering 'Safe Mode' etc.

  Any help would be welcome. Thank you

  Hello

  Usually the vertical display lines looks like a hardware problem, in my view, it could be related to GPU failure.

  In any case, we should start first of all the problem of CD/DVD drive you must check if the disc is properly recognized in the BIOS.

  For this, it must Access the BIOS press the ESC (if Toshiba BIOS) or the key F2 (if Phoenix BIOS). Please check these two options because I m not 100% sure what the BIOS the Qosmio G35 uses.

  But like I said earlier the issue looks like a malfunction of the graphics card and you must contact the ASP in your country for assistance.

  Best regards & friend good luck
