• Satellite Pro 6100 cannot start - message PXE - E61 and PXE - MOF

  My dad just bought me a satellite pro 6100 for United off ebay and when I turn it on the toshiba screen comes up, followed by: PXE - E61 and PXE - MOF. as I am a total blank computer I have not a clue what to do! any ideas...? :)

  Hello Naomi

  Don t worry, it sounds not very badly. I think that you will solve this problem by changing some settings in the BIOS. ;)

  To my knowledge, this message appears when the LAN option has been fixed at the beginning of the boot order. So solve this problem to get into the BIOS (ESC and F1) and then change the order of Boot CD Drive drive HARD etc...
  Please set the LAN at the end.

• Satellite Pro 6100 - problem starting (light flashing Orange)

  On my laptop Satellite Pro 6100, seeing DC IN (first on the left) flashes orange and the laptop does nothing else (no display or sound). The light flashes for 8 times, has a long pause and then starts all over again.

  I tried a different adapter with no joy. It does the same thing if you use only the battery and if you run from the adapter without the battery.

  The only time wherever it shows a different light is when you take the battery out, put back in and hold the power button. Led Slim Select Bay (second right) briefly turns green, but it turns off and the led DC IN resumption of the orange blink.

  It seems likely that it is an internal hardware problem (power supply, motherboard, etc.). Does anyone have any ideas? And as anyone knows anywhere which lists all the different orange light codes for Toshiba laptops?

  Hi André,.

  You are right in thinking that there is a hardware failure (most likely your motherboard). Flashing codes are used by service technicians to indicate the nature of the fault and I have yet to find anywhere who publishes the real meaning of these codes.

  I think it looks like a trip to the nearest Service Agent. :-(

• Satellite Pro 6100 slowy starting after crashing

  My Satellite Pro crashed recently and since then has worked ridiculously slowly, not only in windows, but start upward. Any ideas on what I can check to see what the problem is and we hope to resolve this?

  Hello

  What do you mean by crashed?
  Replace a few parts such as HARD drive?
  Usually if Notepad starts slowly, you should check the boot order in the BIOS.
  Try disconnecting additional devices if you have connected some external devices to the laptop.

  In addition, you can try running chkdsk to check the HARD disk for errors.

• Satellite Pro 6100 does not start - power light flashes

  It seems to Flash a pattern: on (2 sec) flashes (2 seconds) then off (about 8 times)

  What he told me? No fan, no display no hardrive is active.
  Food is ok because it load battery.
  I bought it as it would be something easy to fix ideas?

  Hello

  It sounds bad
  Generally, the power led will blink due to a malfunction of the equipment.
  The LED provides a microcode and only the technician can read this code.
  A common user is not able to read.

  Maybe you'll be able to read this code, but you won't find any description about the meaning of the code.
  I recommend you contact the technician in your country

  But try this:
  Remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter.
  Wait severla times and then plug in the battery and plug in the AC adapter.
  If this does not help, you have aks, a complementary technician...

  Hi Liam

  Hmmm... I think it s not a Council but the battery of the CCF.
  Take a look in the user manual. There you should find something that exactly the message is displayed if the battery RTC (BIOS) is not charged.

  The RTC battery, you must connect the power adapter and should run the laptop for about 24 hours.
  After that the main battery has been charged, then the RTC battery starts to load.

  It will take a little longer.

• LED flashing - need to know the Satellite Pro 6100 POST error codes

  When I tried to turn on my Satellite Pro 6100 laptop the Green DC in power light turned orange and started to blink.
  It flashes 5 times, then 3 times then repeats.

  I guess that this indicates a failure in the system, but where can I find what means this error code?

  Hello

  You can read the flashing code very easily short flashing means 0 long average 1.
  Then you read the complete code back.

  Finally, the error code must be converted into HEXADECIMAL value and then a technician of the laptop could know what means this value.

  The ASP in your country should provide details of the mentioned error.

• Satellite Pro 6100 - error "password HARD drive built-in" at startup

  Hi, my laptop (Satellite Pro 6100 P4 - M 1.7 GHz/15TFT/256 MB / 40 GB/DVD-CDRW/LAN/WiFi/BT/W2K or XP) started rather recently invited me with a "Built-in HARD drive password" message at startup upward. I never put no password on the hard drive in the past, though only in desperation to try to get the laptop running, have tried all the possible passwords I have ever had. Nothing works and I'm failed with a laptop dead on my hands. I would appreciate any help/advice anyone can make.

  Thank you.

  Hi Khurram

  Unfortunately I think that you will need to replace your hard drive. If your laptop is definitely ask a HDD password then there is no way around it and the only way I know to recover from this situation is to send the hard drive to a specialised company that specialize in this kind of recovery (usually for forensic purposes, Police, armed forces, etc.). This can be very costly.

  The easier (and cheaper) option would be for you to replace the hard drive and restore your system and your data (either from a backup if you have one, or from the Toshiba recovery disks).

  Kind regards

• Satellite Pro 6100 turns off when I connect the power adapter

  Satellite pro 6100 works well up to this I put AC adapter / CC, then turns it self
  Any ideas would be appreciated

  see you soon

  Hello

  You use original Toshiba AC/DC adapter or another?
  What happens if you connect the AC/DC adapter, while the laptop is turned off?

  It s really strange problem, but I think that is s TI associated with AC/DC adapter or the motherboard itself

• Satellite Pro 6100 himself turn off

  Hello

  I'm from the Italy. It is 3 days that my Satellite Pro 6100 after some time (it can be 30 minutes or 3 hours) close itself.
  I tried to update bios version 1.70 to 1.90 without any result. I tested my HARD drive and it works fine. I formatted and reinstalled Windows XP Home SP2 Pro edition but the problem that it is still there.
  When it crash, reboot, it seems 'BAD RTC BATTERY' and "BAD CMOS", I have to press F1, then I exit without changing anything.

  I saw that 3 weeks ago appears at the beginning of this message: "PXE - E61 MEDIA TEST FAILURE CHECK CABLE"and"PXE - MOF OUTGOING INTEL PXE ROM" but works laptop well until 2 days ago.

  I don't know why, but every time I restart now stop when WINDOWS XP is on the window (not the first logo on page WXP black) cyan, but the second on the window cyan; can do work that I have to press CTRL + ALT + CANCELLED and it go to the desktop.

  I don't know what to do? Center of Toshiba, it is far from my town, if you can help me will be appreciated.

  Sorry for my English, I read a few post but exactly with my problems, there is no job.
  Thanks in advance, it's a great laptop I jump to save it.

  p.s. There is no dust on it, I tried to lift the keyboard to clean, but it was already clean, even behind the fan.

  Hello supertraz,

  On 6100 laptop there is a soft spot between the control panel and from the motherboard, causing this malfunction. You will not be able to solve this problem simply raise your keyboard and blowing air into your laptop.

  A good description on this problem (I had, too) can be found on this forum posted by user seintaxx here:

• Satellite Pro 6100 - how to change the date and time in the BIOS

  Hello

  I received a satellite pro 6100 that had not been used for some time. Windows does not work then he reinstalled with the good drive.

  When I try and windows 'enable', I get the error 32777 and the laptop is unable to connect with the activation servers that a google leads to believe me that the date and time are incorrect in the bios.

  I know that Press esc to access the bios but there is no option to change the date and time in there. I put the date / the correct time in windows, but this does not seem to synchronize with the bios. I've updated to the latest version of the bios, but this is not enough.

  How can I change or update the time in the bios?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I doubt this time and date setting BIOS does affect Windows activation time Windows doesn t affect it in my opinion. There must be another reason for this problem.
  You can activate Windows by phone?

  Normally the date and time in the BIOS can change you if you mark the date or time, and then press on + or - to change this. Sometimes you have to press PageDown/to the top according to the model of BIOS or laptop.
  Usually in the configuration of the BIOS you will find a brief info how changing the values.

• Satellite Pro 6100 USB problem after stand-by

  Hey all,.

  I have a Satellite Pro 6100 and when that I start my computer, my USB ports work fine. However, as soon as I wake, I get about 6 pop-up messages stating "USB device" unrecognized and my USB ports do not work.

  Any help?

  Thank you!

  Hi guys

  I'm not sure but I think the BIOS update can fix this. Have you already checked if there is a new update of the BIOS for your unit?

• Satellite Pro 6100 - is to "restore" a re - recovery CD install?

  Hello

  My Satellite pro 6100 won't start. "Starting process crashes and a message appears saying that the \windows\system32\config\system file:-«' is missing or damaged.
  When I ran the product recovery DVD, he asked me to confirm what operating system, I want to "Reinstall". At this point I turned it off because I don't want to do something that I can mean loose valuable data (photos) from my hard drive. The user manual is ambiguous, he speaks of restoring damaged files and restore the software preinstalled in the same section. Can someone tell me if I continue I will get the option just the file restore/repair damaged in question or he comes to wipe my hard drive (including my data) and completely re - install windows XP?
  Thank you

  Hello

  If you are using the recovery CD it erases everything on your computer! So if you have something that is important then it first save!
