Laptop fell and does not start correctly

My phone fell on the floor (about 1 1/2 feet off the ground) and when I went to use again it was a black screen. I restarted. Now I have a message that says "no boot device - insert boot disk and press any key any." I turned market a few times and get the same message. I don't know how to go beyond that and do not know where are my backup disks. The laptop is a Pavilion dv5-2129wm with Windows 7. Can someone help me?

Hello

There are few moving parts on a computer whose HARD drive. Some more expensive laptops have some kind of protection for the HARD disk, but much cheaper are not therefore a fall/fall can cause many thing for HARD drive especially IF during the market. Please follow the instructions below to verify and correct the first:

  • My laptop fell and does not start

    Hello! My compaq presario cq56 bowed down and now won't start. I opened it and checked everything. Hars battery, memory disks. I have replaced everything but nothing. I checked the mem, battery and the drive on my second laptop and it worked. When I connect to the AC, the indicator light is on, but when I push the power button, it does NOTHING. What should I check?

    Unfortunately, it will have to be disassembled and inspected if it is does not start due to a fight with gravity.

    Warranty does not cover damage inducer owner, even if inadvertently.

    You could try to remove the hard drive and then see if the laptop responds to the power button. If the motherboard is OK, the BIOS must meet in showing an error message that says it found no bootable disk (or operating system) found. A fall can make a hard drive unusable.

  • Satellite M40-129 BSOD and does not start correctly

    Hi again.

    I was working on my computer since my last question, but (almost) nothing has changed.
    The problem:
    My laptop is booting, but only on very rare occasions.
    What can happen:
    -l' screen stays black (almost 50% of cases)
    -L' splash screen (Toshiba - in touch with tomorrow) becomes visible and nothing happens then (40%)
    -Notepad starts "correctly" (10%)

    If the notebook starts correctly there are 2 options:
    1st: I try to start Windows: it crashes with a blue screen with the nice request an update of the BIOS.
    2nd: I boot SuSe Linux: EVERYTHING WORKS!

    I tried to update the BIOS the traditional way, although it is difficult to get it started it runs until shortly before the end and restart the computer.
    I don't see any confirmation screen as Im used to.

    What I assume, that the associated BIOS startup problem.

    I read a method for recovering the BIOS with a floppy disk, where you copy the BIOS. ROM disk and start the computer with the disc.
    My question is: is this also possible with a CD (have no floppy drive), if yes: how to proceed?

    I wanted to give a point of service of Toshiba, but if they can't fix it, I always have to pay 50 euros. I have to pay money to get my BIOS restored, but the service seems to be just a "-delivery service" the real point of service and I would like to speak with a qualified person, first :)

    Hmm, you said that you have already received the traditional BIOS files from the ASP in your country. Then maybe you should take a look at this Toshiba document:

  • Mac does not start correctly

    Hello, my Imac does not start correctly. When he plays the macsound boots but only half of the load of the boot. Then it restarts.

    What I have done:

    (1) unplug everything and held the power button for 10 seconds.

    (2) held the shift key--> after that I have a few bluish vertical lines

    (3) held cmd + option + P + R-> after I have a few vertical lines bluish, but bigger

    (4) held the c key

    (5) very slow D

    (6) CMD + V-> it's fast to read and to search for errors

    After all these different things, randomly I these bluish vertical lines and sometimes a few flickers on my screen.

    Can someone help me?

    If I need to reinstall I can recover my data?

    I appreciate your help and thanks for your help.

    I solved the problem! I googled a lot and I found that it was the GPU was down. Well, I searched and found the solution...

    I think that apple don't want to hear or see. But if you are a little technical or handyman, Cook your GPU in the oven. Yes, bake your GPU in the oven! See the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vPM41ZmLos

    I warn you all, be very patient and very carefully, or you can destroy your beloved mac. The case may go to an apple store workshop.

  • 6 Lightroom does not start correctly

    LIghtroom 6a fonctionnee om my 10 (x 64) of Windows without problem for 6 months. After the installation of a slide (CyberViewX) scanner and a regular update to Win 10 that occurred automatically when closing down the computer, the 6 Lightroom does not start correctly since I restarted the computer. I uninstalled the scanner CyberViewX program and rebooted the computer again. The only thing that happens when you try to open LR6 is a message that an error has occurred when opening the catalog. I do not have a backup catalog, and there is a button where I can choose a different catalog. When you press this button I find the backup catalog, but when I chose this catalogue I go back to the original message and the backup catalog was obviously not chosen. There is a button to create a new catalog as well and when I press this button I just in my photo folder and there seems to be no way to create a catalog or open LR6. This form of dialogue is obviously not working correctly.

    There was a lock by the catalog file, and I deleted this file. I also tried all the tricks LR running as an administrator and assign full privileges for all users of my photo file.

    The only thing I have not tried is to uninstall and reinstall the whole LR6, but I have a lot of photos and work so I hesitate to do this without knowing that it is necessary and if sure that I can get everything back in order with the old catalog and all restored. Anyway to fix corrupted with the installation DVD files?

    What should do? Help!

    Hi bjomb,

    You suggest to choose the option to create a catalog and give it the name once you get the pictures folder window, and then choose create.

    This would create a new catalog.

    check if it opens the new catalog, and it passes under the background processes in the Task Manager.

    If it does not, then you need to reinstall Lightroom program and it would not affect your changes as changes are stored in the catalogues and catalogues remain it is same when the resettlement.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite C650 - Windows does not start correctly

    I have a Satellite C650, who does not start, when it lights there are two options, Startup Repair launch which leads to a black screen and mobile arrow, the screen remains like that until you turn it off the button stop (seriously ive left for about 10 hours). The other option is to start windows normally resulting in a blue screen and the laptop restarts itself.

    Help me please, make things worse I can't find the box that it came in which contains the guarantee and recovery disc

    Hey Buddy,

    You can start your laptop in safe mode? This means that if you press the F8 key before Windows starts and you choose Safe mode can you start Windows?

    If this isn't the case I think that it s something wrong with your Windows installation and that's why you need to use the Toshiba Recovery disk to restore to factory settings.

  • Satellite Pro L850-1DW does not start correctly

    Hello

    I have a client who has a L850-1DW / PSKDHE-00E005EN laptop.

    She keeps pointing out that the computer does not start successfully from the cold.
    She argues that the question arises mainly when the battery starts but sometimes when it is plugged into the mains.
    I can see where point of newspapers that BSOD were registered at the start and that, on more than one occasion, his computer was recovered from a restore of Windows. He has also recovered factory once too.

    Although I've seen the consequences of these issues of "start-up" I have yet to experience first hand with the device.

    I noticed yesterday that the BIOS is outdated (as I had an alert Tempro).
    I upgraded from 1.6 to 6.50. Yet once, I didn't have problems.
    I can't find the release notes for the BIOS so I don't know if this is a known problem that has been fixed.
    I don't know if this "intermittent" defect is just that or if the user has the power button down too hard or for too long and in fact inadvertently crashing NB itself.

    Any suggestion is welcome.

    Otherwise, I guess I have to connect a call with Toshiba.

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is here. In my opinion, you should ask your client if you can make the data backup and install original recovery image. To my laptop computer reviews must be tested with the settings without installation of additional software.

    > I don't know if this "intermittent" defect is just that or if the user has the power button down too hard or for too long and in fact inadvertently crashing NB itself.
    Who knows? Ask your client and show how to start the laptop by pressing the button walk / stop. It must be done slowly and for only one second.

  • Satellite U300 - Windows does not start correctly

    My U300 Vista Home run came in a boot loop: Windows can not start correctly and makes me want to use repair system, which failed and just makes me want to stop the computer again.

    I've tried without success, but failure mode it no more. I have a product recovery CD, but the system does not start from him. When I studied at the start, I saw that the BIOS does not detect the optical drive.

    Help please! Thank you.

    Hi nonprofit.

    You could try to load the default settings in the BIOS. Maybe it will be reconigze the CD/DVD drive again.

    Otherwise I think that it of necessary to replace the defective drive. Then, you would be able to use the Toshiba recovery disc again. This will restore factory in a few minutes.

  • 6735 b hangs and does not start on battery

    My 6735 b does not start on battery. Just hangs until I plug in the power supply. For some odd reason, I can't access the drivers even though I have the laptop regestered? Can someone post a link to the update of the bios for me?

    Glenn,

    The server is maybe out of service.  I reported the problem with the web page.  Yours is not the only page not available at the moment - something's up.

    Hang in there and try again later.

    Just for the record, in the case where it is useful:

  • NB just by making the effort test and does not start backup

    HP dv7-4177 started having types, wouldn't restart. I tried to test that are inbeded and when I did the stress test he stops and does not restart. I hit the power button and nothing happens. I took the hours of battery sevealr and handed over in but I have nothing seems to help.

    Hello Nutn Spec.  I understand that your notebook is currently unable to boot.

    What kind of questions you know before performing the stress test?  This will help me identify the cause of the problem.

    Have you tried to do a hard reset?  It drains all the residual energy of the laptop and hardware reset forces.  If you haven't tried this before I would suggest trying the following.

    1. Make sure that the laptop is completely turned off.
    2. Remove the battery and AC power.
    3. Press and hold the power button for 15-20 seconds, three times.
    4. Replace the battery and AC power.
    5. Try to start Notepad.

    Let me know the result.  I will keep an eye out for your answer.  Have a great night!

  • Open my laptop, now it does not start

    Hi everyone, the first time poster.

    I opened my laptop (touchsmart tm2 1070ca) to attempt to clean the keyboard and now it does not start at the top.  all the LEDs light up, but the caps lock LED flashes.  The fans and hard drive look about 2 seconds before silence, and about 10 seconds later, the laptop beeps loud and then stops.

    When I opened upward, the touchpad is detached from the motherboard. I finally get it reconnected, but it turned out to be very difficult.

    I tried the Bios recovery suggested on the support site, but it had no effect.

    any help would be massively appreciated.  no no not my laptop will really make my life difficult.

    I know this is an old thread but since there was no solution, I felt should display what has worked for me, in case someone else has this problem.

    This morning my computer refuses to start and the caps lock blinked. I've read elsewhere that a user of a model different from simply removed HP sound CD ROM and re-inserted. My laptop is a HP tm2 Tablet PC, so it doesn't have a removable CD ROM, but I was wondering if another device had become "loose". First, I removed the dongle USB for my mouse and battery and then restarted. That did not help so I forced a stop down (press the power switch.) Then, I opened the background panels and reinstall the RAM (actually happened two sticks to make sure) and removed and re-inserted the HD then restarted again. I don't know which of these factors did the trick, but it worked.

    Hope someone finds this useful info.
