• 700 - 147C envy: cannot change bios to boot from backup USB Acronis. Startup command problem

  I tried to boot from my USB Acronis boot device to clone my C: drive to another HARD drive, but I was unable to set the boot order (first USB) because it keeps resetting & put the USB back where it was before.  I've done this before without problem; I wanted to boot from an external USB Acronis rescue disk & run the procedure to clone of it. The USB is listed in the startup as list "Sandisk Cruzer 1.27 & it's the ISO boot Acronis on this file but I failed to get the pc to boot from it.» (not this time in any case). After a needless frustration 3 hours I ran successfully clone of C: drive procedure.  I checked the clone by disconnecting the source & boot from it, but it works "BOOT PXE ON IPV4 followed by PXE BOOT ON IPV6 before it starts the clone. The startup disk is listed before the lines of IPV in the bios then why what is happening?  I disabled the 2 procedures of IPV with F5 & now it starts normally, but I do not consider this problem solved, because I have not yet able to boot from USB & I don't know why I had to disable these 2 lines.

  Addendum: I revisited the right bios & reactivated 2 disabled lines & it is now booting properly, no nonsense IPV. Go figure.

  Help!

  I've seen similar problems before.  I solved me my clearing the CMOS and then start with only a UEFI (the main HD) compatible device. After that the problem had gone away, I reconnected it and then my other active UEFI device.

• V3 - 771 cannot enter BIOS to rebuild from recovery DVDs

  Hi all

  My installation of Windows 8 has been corrupted and does not start. So I just want to get the laptop to boot from the recovery DVD or any DVD so I can rebuild.

  No matter how hard I press F2, nothing happens and I get "no boot device, press a key." It just takes me to a blank start menu! I tried with what I know to be bootable CD/DVD internally and have used external DVD drives.

  I want to just get into the setup to boot from the DVD drive. How difficult that can be. Very far and completely frustrating.

  Any advice or help welcome.

  Thank you very much for your time.

  Hello again,

  This problem is corrected now strangely. I had tried to start on many drives of type Ultimate Boot with no luck. I jumped in a DVD of Windows 7 which has started loading, but didn't the first time.

  I rebooted and then the "F2" worked well. I changed the classic UEFI BIOS got up the menu key to boot at startup and started on the DVD of Windows 7. Load up now very well.

  This is nuts. Affect the initial installation of Windows 8 that crashed BIOS/UEFI? I'm old school and both should be completely independent. The operating system should have nothing to do with the computer startup mechanism.

  Thank you very much

• Portege A100 PPA10A - update the BIOS to boot from a USB device

  Hello

  I have an old Portege A100, model: PPA10A-0002LP, but I can't seem to find this model on any Web site of Toshiba, closest I've seen is the "PPA10A - 0002 L'.

  I am wanting to know if there is a BIOS update that will allow me to boot from a USB device.

  The question I have is that I need to reinstall Windows, but the CD ROm cannot read disks.
  This network PXE boot, but I'm new to this sort of thing and have absolutely no idea what to do here.

  Any help would be great,

  Thank you

  Hello

  Portege A100 seems to be developed solely for the Australian market.
  As you say it is a model number Portege A100 PPA10A - 0002L listed on the Australian page of Toshiba Portege A100 PPA10A-0002LP belongs to the same series which is PPA10A
  So in my opinion, the BIOS should work too.

  Anyway, I doubt that the BIOS update will add boot options.

  Usually the BIOS supports booting from CD/DVD drive, drive HARD, LAN and USB FDD.
  It should be possible to boot from a boot disk using a USB FDD drive.
  I doubt you'd be able to boot from USB WEIRD since this Portege A100 supports an internal CD/DVD drive.

• I restart the computer and changed the BIOs to boot from the CD. So as usual, I'm prompted to press any key to start from the CD or DVD.

  Hello Comunity Microsoft :D My name is Mike and I built a gaming pc. Everything was going well for the first 3 days, but now I have a few crashes very violent. Speakers in loop and buzz and screen lock. I have to completely shut down to go back to a working state. I did everything I could possibly think of to solve this problem, but I can't.

  Then. on the problem. Today, I decided that I was able to solve all the problems by reinstalling windows. I had my keys together and put the disc in. I restart the computer and changed the BIOs to boot from the CD. So as usual, I'm prompted to press any key to start from the CD or DVD. I do and I get normal loading windows files, and at the end of this road, I get the Welcome screen in windows7 with no option and a fat slider. I don't have the little box that tells me that I can fix my computer or reinstall windows, NOTHING. I tried several times and received the same result<--(Insanity: root="" meaning...="" just="" saying)="" so="" i="" called="" windows,="" or="" had="" windows="" call="" me="" rather,="" and="" the="" tech="" says="" she's="" never="" heard="" of="" such="" a="" thing="" happening,="" and="" walked="" me="" through="" all="" these="" steps="" that="" i="" have="" already="" tried....="" still="" no="" help.="" so="" i="" am="" asking="" the="" community.="" has="" this="" ever="" happened="" to="" you="" and="" how="" did="" you="" make="" it="" work.="" and="" please="" don't="" post="" a="" list="" of="" regurgitated="" back="" log="" fix="" lists.="" rest="" assured="" i="" have="" already="" done="" it="" and="" failed="" to="" receive="" a="" different="">

  Just to isolate the problem, try to download a new copy of Windows 7, and then try again:

  For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

  It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

  Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

  How to: What are my options for Windows 7 reinstall media?

  Make sure you scroll down and read the section:

  What to do if you cannot get your manufacturer recovery media, refuse to use or to buy it or the Microsoft Software Recovery Website does not work?

  Regarding problems with the computer itself, try to disconnect all nonessential equipment attached to it to see if the problem persists.

  I would also try switching around components such as modules of memory to see if the problem persists.

  I would also check to make sure that all components are mounted and installed correctly.

  USB disk on key/USB hard drive
  USB CD/DVD ROM drive

  Portable hard drive

  USB floppy drive

• Satellite L30 - 11 d: update Bios to boot from USB

  I have a Satellite L30 11(d) bought Sept 07.

  I'm interested in trying to boot from USB, at the present time, my bios does not.
  I am looking to update my bios. There is a updated bios updated for me to download (3.10WIN).

  I have 3 questions:

  (1) 3.10WIN allows to boot from USB?

  (2) is 3.10WIN related to the use of MS Vista? (Looking at this article , it seems that the new phoenix / toshiba bios only allows panoramas...?)

  (3) how to settle?

  (with ubuntu 7.10 works well... aside from the sound)

  As to the question;

  (1) No, it is not possible to boot from a memory stick USB HDD or USM

  (2) each BIOS for each series of Toshiba notebook is different! Please don t no matter what other laptop computer BIOS or fixed PCs. Satellite L30 - 10 d belongs to the series of the 3,10 and PSL33E BIOS is OS independent. If your laptop comes with XP then the BIOS supports XP completely. Of course, you can try to install Vista but it is possible that some features of the laptop as FN keys will be does not work

  (3) the BIOS should always be done in the Windows operating system. As you can see on the page of the Toshiba driver the BIOS version is called 3.10Win - version

• 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.

  I would like to be able to boot to a USB with my P20 drive. However, upgrades to the bios, which I find to PSP26 reference date of the 2004 numbers, a few months older than my laptop itself - which the BIOS does not have the USB boot. This means that there is no available uograde newest BIOS?

  In addition, the 'trad' updated BIOS available for PSP26 zip file contains one... of files windows self-extracting (?), rather than the usual set of files including a CD iso image. (But in any case, it is very old...)

Same pressing down both keys on my keyboard and switch to normal startup with Windows 10 logo screen and then type password. I'm sure you know that this office is not supported for parameters of the UEFI. I tried with Settings\Update and Security-Advanced Options- then have 6 names on the double column , but I'm not sure that one to take to solve the problem. Here are the 6 names below:

  System restore

  System Image recovery

  Startup Repair

  Command prompt

  Startup parameters

  Go back to the previous version

  Everything what I wan tis to solve two things by pressing the ekys for BIOS and the Boot Options screen. That's all that I need it. Or I need to reinstall the entire disk operating system Microsoft Windows 10 Home Premium 64?   Either way, my computer's desktop Acer Aspire M3450 game.

  Thank you

  It's a good thing I do not get out the my desktop's CMOS battery. Someone I know told me I 'Try to change the keyboard' Guess - it works now. The USB keyboard that I just bought does not work so I went back to the wireless keyboard that I used all the time. So now my problem is solved.

  Can I ask a question - why doesn't the USB keyboard support to accept that I press the key after the reboot for BIOS or Boot Display Options? Hope that someone here in this forum will answer for that.

  Thank you

• How to configure the BIOS to boot USB on Satellite A50-110?

  Hello.
  I own a Toshiba Satellite A50-110 and I have a USB bootable Flash drive, but I don't know how to boot from the USB key.
  I guess I need to access and configure the BIOS. How can I do? Where can I get information on this subject? What are the steps to perform this task?

  TIA

  Hello

  As far as I know in the BIOS cannot be configured anything. As much as I now on this old notebook you can use just USB floppy for boot drive (U key at startup), but not the USB flash drive.

  Enter BIOS settings with the ESC key at first upward and check that all listed bootable devices.

  Hi Ted,

  You are welcome

  Boot into the bios menu and go to the very section where you have disabled the Secure Boot.

  Find an entry called materials and this value to Activate.

  Save the changes and exit the bios.

  Follow the previous procedure below:

  Insert the bootable disc of Ophcrack and laptop stop.

  Tap away at the esc you key start Notepad to open the Start Menu.  Select boot options ( f9 ), use the arrow keys to select the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER.  You can also get a prompt to "Press any key to" continuous - it if requested.

• Cannot enter BIOS on Win 7 HPE with American Megatrends BIOS

  Although others have asked how to access the BIOS Setup interface, the answers have not solve my problem. so I write another similar question.

  According to the subject line, I can't access the BIOS Setup interface during startup.  My system runs Windows 7 HPE.  The equipment includes an elite group of ECS motherboard that came with BIOS of American Megatrend chip version 4.6.5 and is dated 05/03/2012.  I have never flashed or otherwise updating of the BIOS chip, but I could bring up the graphical user interface and change the options.  I did quite recently in fact.

  When I power fail system and/or entering the cycle of rebooting from the button start, the system stops and then begins to start and displays the start of American Megatrends screen.  Press DEL repeatedly has no impact on the continuation of start-up.  He proceeds as if the keyboard were not active and the system did not, therefore, the interruption of the keyboard...  Because the splash screen also mentions F2 and F7, I tried these interruptions as well, nothing helps.  The boot process has continued.

  I searched the web until my fingers are simple bumps and can't find anything really useful.  I read and reread mother ECS card manual without finding anything.  I found a FAQ on the web page of American Megatrends, which addressed problems to access the BIOS with Win 8, which suggests that the change of power options would be effective. However, these referenced power options do not exist in my win 7 system HPE.  Yes, Power Options are available from the Control Panel, but the individual options are not the same to win 8.

  FWIW, I pulled all the hard disks internal power cables to see if I could access the BIOS interface.  I was able to do so; However, without BONES, the keyboard is not active so no keyboard interrupts can be issued.

  I would be grateful for any advice on how to influence of post-processing to slow down and make sure that any issue the keyboard interrupt is seen and followed.

• Pavilioin P6710f: Changing Bios then boot from a USB flash drive

  How can I update my bios to enable booting from a USB Flash drive. My bios is American Megatrends 6.07, 04/05/2011 and the only options are CD, hard disk, floppy. Is there a way to change this? To test the Windows 10 repair disk I created, my system froze to the blue screen "choose" keyboard layout. I couldn't use the usb mouse or usb keyboard. As a result, I had to restore my system to windows 7 using my Norton Ghost recovery disk and backups that I had done before downloading windows 10.

  After the opening of the bios and clicking on the hard drive by default, I found that I had a choice, including the USB Flash drive that I have pugged just forward to restart. This answered my question. Thanks to everyone for their contribution. It was not necessary to Flash the bios after all.
