Iconia w3 Bios does not

short version. child close when installing windows 8.1 says restart. "" "" orderly installation disk. "" After that dozens of attempts got throughout the installation. Well, it works. Boy I so im good/smart, which is clearly not the case NOW. can't do an image file, only a windows recovery disk 7 is that it offers. empty hidden recovery disks, and the bios won't let me take anything she. Can I go him / get in there. Nothing will highlite. the worst thing is easy, I found that I needed a special / or original USB boot. Not work on all windows. NEVER dry used passwords for the bios or extremely difficult to circumvent hard drive if possible. Come out fine, I need to create one for the installation. so the good thing is that it works. but only about 3 free concerts because 8.1 windows installation is still on the drive hidden behind the windows?

dose anyone know what options I might have to get space back? fixing boot record? be able to image file? Get the bios to work/reset/replace anything?

I remember something (haven't checked) that the recovery partition is encrypted by bitlocker and there is a way to turn it off. Since my W3 is a 32GB, I received a disk.

    Hello

    You have problems with the laptop?
    If not then why you want to do the BIOS? Just because the new BIOS is released?
    I would not change anything if my laptop is running correctly.

    However, the update of the BIOS requires the VAP (value added package).
    So remember that this PPV is installed correctly. If this isn't the case, so far.

  • Satellite Pro A30: after disk HARD replacing the BIOS does not see DVD or HARD disk

    Hello

    I bought a new Pro A30 of Satellite earlier.
    Shortly after, I noticed the system sometimes
    would freeze, with a rattling of the HD.
    A reboot cold was the only solution.
    I was told to replace the HD I did but the
    problem persisted with the new HD.

    I tried a known working HD and the problem still persisted.
    At this point, the warranty period has increased.
    Frost started happening more regularly, and
    now, the BIOS does not recognize the HD player or DVD.
    It starts and then try to boot from the network,
    because he doesn't have a HD or DVD player.

    At this point, I think I need a new system board.
    Someone at - it other advice or seen this problem
    before?

    need help here, I got the latest bios 2.50 and my bios does not detect the SSD but an I start windows 7 from my hard drive it is detected and I want to use the ssd as boot drive, please help

    Hello

    Which SSD drive you have exactly?
    I also think it s a compatibility problem between the HARD disk controller (motherboard) and the current SSD drive.

    So you should check if you have the latest firmware of the SSD drive and if it of possible, try another disc SSD of a friend, for example.

    By the way: have you tried to load the default settings in the BIOS?

  • Satellite L355 - dreaded blue screen - Bios does not end

    I have a new Satellite L355.
    Sometimes at startup I get the DBS.

    Otherwise said, the bios does not end and the screen is blank.
    Laptop repair center replaced the motherboard twice, but I still have the problem.
    I found that if I turn off the power and remove the battery, I can start very well after the replacement of the battery.

    Does anyone know why the battery clears the problem?
    Toshiba technical support often has a user that to clear a trouble report. They must know something.

    Thank you, jack

    > Occasionally when booting I get the DBS

    That would mean that this sometimes happens from time to time but not always
    Is this good?

    I think that it of difficult to say what's going wrong here because the question is not always happens... so it is difficult to replicate it
    Usually if the POST (power on self-test) cannot transmit properly then that would mean that a material error has been detected somewhere on the map

    Maybe you should check if the laptop using the latest version of the BIOS.
    If a new BIOS has been published, then you should try to update.

  • Satellite 2800 - BIOS does not recogize Toshiba 40 GB HARD drive

    I have an old Toshiba S2800 (if-200 questions in total). He was works very well with a 10 GB HARD drive for ages. Yesterday, I thought that putting his hard drive to a bigger.
    Removed the old and installed a new hard drive, Toshiba MK4026GAX. On the power on the BIOS does not detect the HARD drive at all. I can hear the humming noise (platter (s) rotating), but apart from that, there is nothing. The BIOS indicates disk mode HARD is "unused" and also on page 2 is none shown on the primary hard disk IDE channel. (tried to boot Linux from a CD to see if who sees anything on the IDE channel, but apparently the primary IDE channel is disabled if the BIOS does not detect a master or a slave connected device). Change the mode of the master to the slave na HARD drive? t change a thing.
    The BIOS version is 2.00. Tried to find an older one without success.

    I thought that the BIOS has a limit of 32GB, but when I connect a 120 GB hard drive (WD scorpio), it has been recognized by the BIOS and the PC was ready to boot from the device.

    I would have thought computers laptop Toshiba were at least compatible with another device (e.g. hard drive) Toshiba

    Someone has any idea how to operate?

    Thanks in advance!

  • Satellite P10 304 BIOS does not detect HARD and CDROM drive

    My HDD p10-304 has recently failed.
    I bought a new 60 GB western digital 2.5 drive "and installed today.

    At startup, the BIOS does not detect the drive, but also, it does not detect the CD-ROM drive.
    This makes me think that maybe it's not the player after all, maybe the onboard IDE / motherboard.

    I'm kinda stuck, so it's a new drive should work fine, and I have no way to test the motherboard.

    The only difference is that the insulation on the original drive sleeve should be reduced by half.
    The bit important (low, where the circuits would otherwise affect metal) is always there, it is the
    Few albums I had to remove but that should be no problem.

    Someone at - it suggestions?

    Thank you, Stu.

    You replaced the HARD drive by a new one or the BIOS don't recognize the old HDD?

    Usually if the laptop is not able to start and that the BIOS does not see the old HDD then I guess that the HARD drive is faulty.
    If the BIOS doesn't recognize the inserted new HARD drive and then either you ve bought is not compatible, or the size of the HARD drive is just too big.

    Hello

    This site is NOT for an mSATA SSD. It's a location miniPCIe for a TV tuner. I saw some people modding the BIOS, it could be used as a slot mSATA, but I don't think it would work on your laptop. The only successful modding has been reported on some HP ENVY 15-3000 with generation processors Intel first. However, I can help you with the list of authorization for incompatible wifi. That can be removed and users can use any wireless card they want.

  • HP 6120 t BIOS does not recognize the second IDE hard drive connected via IDE-SATA controller

    Hello

    HP 6120 t (vista) BIOS does not recognize the second IDE hard drive connected via IDE-SATA controller. The other SATA disk and the DVD player came with the machine.

    I hooked my old 200 GB Hitachi drive via the controller. I also put the jumbers in the present as a slave. I also took the original WD drive and just connect the IDE hard drive. BIOS do not show any drive at all.

    I would try something possible at this time I have a lot of my data on the old disk.

    Thanks appreciate any suggestion.

    Try to enter the BIOS and I believe under change of Advanced menu of SATA to IDE or Enhanced.

    You need to do when you install Windows XP or you will get a blue screen and it does not start.

    Don't forget chang back when you put it in your drive home hard sata.

    For my Presario 6620DK, I bought a Western Digital 160 GB PATA HARD drive, which I want to install instead of the original Samsung SV0602H 60 GB ATA-100.

    Unfortunately, bios does not see the new HD. If I'm on the old hard drive, it is recognized by the bios.

  • Satellite A210 - BIOS does not work after upgrade

    Hello

    I have a satellite A210-17 for a few years now, but I made the mistake to go to the Microsoft Web site
    to make a BIOS setting to day and once I installed upgrading BIOS, that the laptop did not return ever on, black screen.

    I brought a guy in the month city 3 or 4 he is, he said, it could replace a bios chip if necessary
    but did nothing or I would have heard of him now.

    Is it possible that I can get the bios chip and have him install for me?
    I don't have 200 euros to replace the whole motherboard.

    This laptop was brilliant before that.

    Thanks in advance

    Update the BIOS is a very serious procedure, and the use of fake and not compatible BIOS would damage the motherboard.

    To be honest, I don t think that the replacement of the EPROM would help you that of course, the BIOS is stored on EPROM module but in most cases this chip is soldered to the motherboard and the EPROM replacement will not be easy

    To my knowledge the EPROM module could be flashed once more using the crisis disk BIOS and the special procedure. Usually, these updates of the crisis of the BIOS can be done by maintainer authorized Toshiba and that don t require the replacement of the EPROM module.

    I also read in this forum that some guy tried to Flash the EPROM module to clean hands in some cases, it worked, but in different cases such update does not work correctly

    However, I recommend you to use the advanced search option forum and check a few different discussions on crisis disk BIOS / update

    Otherwise I recommend you contact the Toshiba ASP in your country and products BIOS Update of the crisis

  • 1.60 BIOS does not recognize the USB bootable in Portege Z830

    Hello
    I have a Portege Z830 with BIOS version 1.60. It runs an operating system, ubuntu, (without a windows OS, it is not possible to upgrade the BIOS). I have a USB bootable (debian, created by copying a .iso image using dd) which works on other computers, but not on this one. With the USB at the top of the boot priority, it is not recognized as a device start-up and the computer boots from the HARD drive. The boot is in legacy mode, no UEFI (there is no switch in the menu of the UEFI/legacy BIOS).

    Pointers how to allow a booting from a USB key on this computer?

    Thank you and best regards,

    James

    As you probably know, Toshiba does not support Linux so you can't upgrade the BIOS under Linux OS.
    Also, it is not available to be installed from USB.

    It runs as an application and must be run under Windows running.
