  • Satellite A55-S1065 - after removing the battery, BIOS ask me password

    So, something happened yesterday, and it seems to me that it is very strange.
    I have a portable Satellite A55-S1065. And while I was with power point, the
    computer crashes. In the midst of my confusion, I decided to delete
    the battery just to make him stop.

    So I did it and plugged it again
    and I tried to turn on the computer. Now, the bios ask me a password,
    but I've no idea what password it is that. Can someone help me solve this problem?
    IM really desperate to find a solution to this since this computer contain
    many of my works.

    Thank you very much.

    > After removing the battery, BIOS ask me password
    I know it may seem silly now, but I never heard of something like that. I use laptop for a long time and I had the experience with many others and strange question, but something like that, never.

    Problem is that we are dealing here in the public forum and BIOS password is a very sensitive area and very important security feature, so we can not write here about some illegal ways how you can remove the BIOS password.

    If there is no way to start your laptop, I recommend you contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.
    I'm sorry. :(

  • Satellite L20-101: Question on battery & BIOS password

    Dear Sir or Madam:

    I have a Toshiba laptop satellite L20-101, so can u please answer my questions below.

    Is it better for the battery life to always stay connected to an electrical outlet when possible, or charge the battery and then use it until it needs to be recharged again? I mean what is best for the life of the battery, and I need to know if stay connected to AC power affects the battery life.

    How can I set a password for the laptop not windows? Because when I enter BIOS setup and set a password for user and supervisor. He just ask me about this password when I try to login to Setup again, but it is still continuous to the windows boot without asking me about a password.

    What should I do?

    Kind regards

    Hello

    The fact is that you can charge/discharge the battery about 500 times.
    After this period, the battery will lose performance.
    More recent laptops and batteries use the latest technology of load.
    But I recommend to remove the battery, if you work on the DC for a long time.
    In this case, you can extend the life of the battery and the performance

    If you want to set the BIOS password and it should appear at the beginning, you must activate the password at startup option in the BIOS.

  • Acer aspire 5552. Battery / bios update

    I have an Acer Aspire 5552on whose battery is a failure. I bought a new battery, but the laptop will not recognize the new battery. The provider says my bios needs updating. My bios is acer v2.05 17/11/2010. Downloads of the bios on the website do not include v2.05. where can I find this update of the bios?

    I am sure the sellers claim. Some batteries cheap may not be recognized by the laptop. I got lucky with AGPtek, PWR + and Anker.

    If you want to upgrade the Bios, I would go to the most recent. Make sure your battery is fully charged, maintain the power of the connected, read everything carefully, because you will.

  • Dim 8400 cleaning-CMOS battery BIOS Reset?

    Hi people!
    Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding. I've never dealt with before inside material operations. These tasks may seem simple to many here... but not to me... again.

    I'm a bit confused after researching the best way to perform a simple computer desk case dusting/cleaning. I have a Dimension 8400 built in late 2004 runninng XP Pro SP3, BIOS Version A03 (11/10/04). My 8400 has been updated several years ago with two 500gig drives configured in RAID 0. This, after Dell phone support said I had a failure of hard drive... which soon discovered to be an incorrect assessment. Well, now I have a "failure" 250 GB external drive that works perfectly.

    Although I have never personally opened the case before, I need to clean the inside and outside. At the same time, I need to change the CMOS 10 year battery, which gave me the message of low voltage F1 now for some time. According to me, it is better to change it before it dies completely. Then I learn that I'm going to lose, and so need to reset my BIOS settings back to the State before the battery change. And apparently, there are many other tasks I could perform as part of a proper clean-up. Additional maintenance tasks as remove the CPU heatsink and fan to reapply thermal paste, then clean each connector RAM, etc. I think, however, I will go as far as a battery change for now.

    My real concern is how be sure all of the settings that I see in BIOS screens (which I have written down by the owner's manual) are all that need to be reset (as well as the date and time, of course). I wrote down to the boot sequence and 2 settings of the car that are not the default settings. All THE other settings across all screens seem to be the default settings. Am I right to believe that if I do the simple BIOS fixes back to that I see now that I would have done it good... that RAID 0 will be restored and that their output, I'll have a solid start and transparent in XP? I hope it's really simple. It sounds TOO simple. Advice or advice on possible "traps" are greatly appreciated!
    Respectfully,.
    Brad

    All this sounds good. The manual will be old data in there. Boot in the Bios. Never open the screen and all the options and save what is there now. Then, change the battery. Boot into the Bios and replicate the rated parameters.

  • Removal of password BIOS on Tecra M11 - 11 M

    I have a Toshiba Tecra M11 - 11 M, which was blocked from password. I stripped the computer laptop and removed the BIOS during 10 min but the rest password battery still IE on the screen it still reads PASSWORD - *.

    There is no way to get into the BIOS through a combination of keys.
    There are no markings or letters on the motherboard whether ie: C35 - C36 or J12 - J13 out short which would in most cases to remove the password and allow access to the BIOS.

    The technicians out there with any ideas would be much appreciated.
    Some people asking for help with a password of bios are not thieves but crazy just forgetful.

    As far as I know Toshiba uses several methods to remove BIOS password. On commercial machines like Tecra and Portege method is not the same as the Satellite models.
    Remove battery BIOS works on desktop computers, but not on mobile machines.

    Mobile machinery must have better protection due to the fact that can be stolen easily and it is very important against a misuse.
    > Some people asking for help with a password of bios are not thieves but crazy just forgetful.
    S OK, but you can't wait this BIOS password removal method will be described on the public forum. Contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and they will do it for you. All you have to do is show an invoice validates and prove that you are the real owner of this Tecra machine.

  • Sudden loss of power if it works on battery on Satellite P10

    I have problems with the battery on my satellite P10. I can use the laptop very well when I'm on the current, but when I want to run on battery, it will last awhile (showing 100% decreasing slowly as usual) then will suddenly change to 5% and turn off due to the critical battery level.

    Can someone help me?

    I wouldn't have thought, it's just a case of having to replace the battery, because he suddenly disappeared like this, it has not got gradually worse over time.

    Thank you

    Hello

    How old is your battery and how many times have you loaded and unloaded battery?
    Usually after one year or 500times charge/discharge, the battery slowly loses performance
    In my opinion, it is simply a matter of battery and the battery must be replaced to solve this problem
    Just contact the ASP in your country and order the new and compatible battery!

    Good bye

  • Tecra M3: How can I reset or bypass a BIOS password unknown

    My brother is died last year and left a Toshiba Tecra M3, protected by a Bios password. How or where I can cancel this password.
    I have good computer background of it proved to be a challenge please help.

    Hello

    I fear that you will not be able to circumvent or remove unknown BIOS password
    Of course, the BIOS password could be deleted on the desktop computer by removing the battery BIOS, but the laptop technology is simply different and this procedure won't help
    You will need to contact the ASP in your country which is able to do.

    or you ask for the password brother ;)

  • Question of battery charger

    I just bought a HS SX50 and a camera case. I found that the case of the camera has enough room in his pockets to store the battery charger provided Cannon (CB - 2LC) or an extra battery, but not both at the same time unless I install the battery in the charger. So my question is; leave the battery in the charger, all the evils of the time or unloader battery?

    Hi Reddog99,

    While we don't suggest long-term storage in the battery charger, you shouldn't have problems storing the battery it for a short period of time.

  • Dell Vostro 430 sometimes breaks down and does not find the hard drive in the bios

    So I have this old - ish Dell Vostro 430, intel cpu, windows 7 hard disk sata 250 GB, 4 GB of ram.

    Update BIOS to the latest version 2.4.0

    In certain exceptional circumstances, this PC sometimes crashes in windows, it is restarted, and then when he comes back it does not find the hard drive as a gift. He is not seen in the bios and does not start.

    To fix, I have to unplug the power cable, wait a few seconds, plug in, reboot the computer and it starts normally, load windows and everything.

    So far, I have tried to paginate on another hard disk, reinstall the Windows operating system from scratch, and same thing happens from time to time.

    It is difficult to find the cause of the problem, because this happens very rarely.

    Sometimes, when the pc is turned on for the first time in the morning, the hard drive is not found by the bios and we reappear at the same trick (disconnect the power cable) to take him back.

    When it crashes when using inside Windows, it seems that the reason is the computer can't find the hard drive.

    Such computer is out of warranty.

    It would be nice to just throw this computer because it is still fine for the work it has to do, + I have Windows and Office OEM license on it, as well as many other software that I have to reinstall etc.etc.

    No idea what I could troubleshoot?

    Maybe change the motherboard? How can I buy a new motherboard for an out of warranty Dell?

    While possibly keeping all the OEM licenses (Windows 7 and Office 2007).

    That will make hard to resolve this situation.

    • Have you tried to replace the battery in the motherboard, if nothing else than to exclude it? CR2032, 3-volt lithium-ion, ~ $2 at discount stores. Do not forget to open the BIOS Setup and copy down all current settings first because remove battery BIOS resets the default values, which is maybe not correct for your specific system.
    • Have you tried another SATA data cable, or reinstall the existing at both ends?
    • Have you reinstall RAM and PCI card in their slots?
    • Have you used canned air to blow out the dust?
    • Maybe a power supply problem... ? If insufficient voltage, he could not start the HARD drive quite fast at startup, or quick enough after your option settings to be able to turn the HARD drive off when it is not accessed, what may cause this error message 'not found '.
    • If you use a power strip or surge protector, have you deleted and the PC connected directly to a wall jack?

    If it is a motherboard defective and you replace it with another jury of Vostro 430, you shouldn't have any problems with Windows or Office licenses. Assuming you are using Windows Dell reinstall for exact same version of Windows drive that was installed at the factory, it should not even ask the product key, if you must reinstall Windows on the HARD drive. But even if she asks, there should be a sticker somewhere on the PC with your unique product key so you can enter if the installer made the request.

    and make sure you have the Office product key too...

  • do not charge the battery dv2-1010el

    Hello

    I got a dv2-1010el since October 2009, running windows vista and this week suddenly stopped battery charge: not later than 2 weeks ago, the battery used to last 3 hours.

    Even if there is a residual charge of 17%, the laptop also does not start if not connected with the AC adapter

    The notification icon in the lower right corner of the taskbar windows says the charger is connected, but it is not the battery.

    Otherwise, the pre-installed application 'Battery Hp control' says that the State of the battery is good and he is currently in charge: however the battery won't charge even if I leave it connected to the power supply for more than 12 hours, or the Red led flashes.

    I checked the AC adapter voltage and it seems (18, 8V when he should be 18, 5-19), I tried to check the voltage of the battery, but I was unable to read any value.

    I also tried the solutions suggested by the self-care hp online, but without result (reinstalled the battery, BIOS update microsoft ACPI driver).

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance

    I don't see much more in terms of options to replace the battery.

    It is not required to replace it with an OEM battery that the warranty is over. Go online and find one at a good price. Unfortunately computer don't always last longer than a little more than a year because everyone uses and cares about them differently.

    Best regards
