M17x R1 does not start - black screen - fan turns, turns on the keyboard, nothing on the screen.

Hi all

Newbie here and desperate.

I have a problem with M17x my son this morning. Everything worked very well and after some time, turned off the machine it self.  Now it does not start even - at least I think, it won't because there is nothing on the screen as it is empty.

I've tried several things, including trying to move on and outside, with or without a battery of the power cord.

I'm at a loss as to what could have happened.

Help, please.

The gpu of cooking is very easy in fact, that you have designated your oven to about 275 degrees cover a cookie sheet with paper and configure the map out of it by winding 4 balls of aluminum foil and their definition on each corner of the map. you never want to have it put all directly on the sheet. do Cook for about 10 minutes then cool before coming back into the laptop. Always be sure to remove all of the components and the radiator and any residue of thermal paste. After sick cooking you need to reapply a fresh thermal paste. I use artic silver 5. It is has more detailed instructions on this online, as well as photos. You want to make sure it's your video card before you do it just to be sure. I just had to do it again last week, works like a charm for me every time.

  • Satellite M60-170 does not start - black screen

    I have toshiba M60-170, before it was perfect, but now I don't know what is happening?
    When I try to start my computer just for 2 sec, everything is good, then the fan of sounds of the CPU and the screen is black and the stop of HARD drive.
    So everything is stop!
    I try to start again but still does not.

    Some body told me that it is the motherboard!
    Please, someone tell me what is happens with my beautiful laptop?

    Thank you

    It does not sound good friend :(

    But let's try this; Remove the battery and unplug the power adapter for about 20 min.
    After this short period of time connect the two parts, and try to start Notepad.

    If it doesn t help the chances are that your hardware is defective. Like other guys said, it could be a fault of the motherboard or something different like CPU, memory modules.
    I can speculate on failure.

    I think that you don't have many choices. In your case, you should contact the ASP in your country for a control of the laptop.

    Good bye

  • Satellite L850D does not start - black screen

    Ok.. My wife L850D had problems with black screening started upward after the toshiba screen.

    I ran a few different utilities, including a reset... it all started about 3 weeks after the victory 8.1 upgrade.

    Rang technical support who kindly informed that because we put 8.1 on that he cancelled the guarantee. (btw nice guy)
    Then refused to help.

    And went and reloaded Win 8 of my happens, just to see if it was a problem of hardware, software.
    (yes I know, but it must have been only temp).

    It starts fine, sitting there for centuries without problem.
    It wasn't until I downloaded the drivers toshiba, (Yes the good) did a reboot and hey presto. black screen again.

    A little, this would imply that there is a problem with the drivers of toshiba?

    OK so the wife decided screw it, put Win 7 on it.
    Restarted with disk in. sat and sat. Google finally informed me that I had to disable secureboot and put uefi in the csm.

    OK fine, went into the bios, off course start, changed to the csm uefi and restart the computer.
    Now I get nothing; screen all turns on, fan starts, cd rom shots on and nothing stops down immediately if I push the power button.

    I pulled the battery, external and internal, let rest for half an hour and still the same thing.

    Any ideas?

    The history is for me a little confused so let me start from the beginning with some basic stuff.
    In your ad write you didn t what model do you have exactly (L850D-xxx) and I can't check the specs of the laptop but I presume that this laptop comes with preinstalled OS, probably Win8.
    Laptop with factory preinstalled OS that includes all the necessary drivers and tools and utilities. One of them is Toshiba Recovery Media Creator. With this tool, you can create a recovery (DVD or USB) media and it lets reinstall the original OS if it s some problem and HDD recovery does not work.
    Best option now would be to use these media and install original recovery image. Did you create this recovery media?

    Generally speaking when you new notebook you do not have to use the original OS. You can install anything you want, and it has nothing to do with security. You can install any OS, all supported operating systems. So I do not understand how you could get info from technical support.

    In any case, try please connect your laptop to the power supply and restart laptop. What exactly happens? See Toshiba welcome screen? Try pressing F12 repeatedly. There any reaction?

  • HP 255 G2 does not start-> black screen (my fault)

    Here's the situation:

    Purchased a HP 255 G2 (windows 8.1) to be used with Linux Mint.

    I know that I have to enable the legacy mode in the BIOS and disable secure boot. I forgot the last part (disable startup secure).

    Now I can't do anything with the laptop, it does not meet the ESC or F10 to enter the BIOS to correct my error.

    I also have a USB stick with flash of the BIOS, but it does not boot from the USB key to reflash the BIOS.

    Does anyone have a clue as to what I can do next? Picked up by HP for repair?

    Hi Fd1sk,

    Your HP 255 G2 is a commercial product and get your question more exposure, I would say post in the trade forums. Here is a link to the forum Commercial Notebook.

  • Tecra S1 - does not boot, black screen

    When I turn on my Tecra S1, fan starts, dvd starts up but screen stays black and hd light does not illuminate. If I press F8 or F12, or sometimes even if I do not support what it is, I've heard three beeps. I disconnected the battery, HD and RAM, but it seems that the same thing.

  • Windows could not start - black screen

    My laptop does not start - I have a black screen with the message

    Windows could not start.  A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.


    File CLFS. SYS

    Status: 0xc00000e9

    Info: Windows could not load because a required file is missing or damaged.

    I ran the Vista startup repair disk, but results from that start-up cannot repair this computer automatically.  root cause found: critcal C:\CLFS boot file. SYS is corrupt

    I can't start in safe mode - when I try it starts to list files, stops after about 5 and then sends me the black screen message.

    Hello

    To begin with, would not be clfs.sys C:\, it would be under C:\Windows\System32. This could indicate one of the following two issues:

    (1) your boot sector is damaged.

    (2) you have a virus masquerading as a legitimate system file.

    For one, the first thing you should try are the steps detailed here: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/927392?p=1

  • Portege 2010 does not start-> white screen

    Hello

    I need help because my 2010 does not start. When I press the power button, the power light turns on but I get nothing on the screen.

    He worked when my brother used it until the mouse has frozen and then turns off. He then lit it back in which case only the power led came up with nothing on the screen.

    The hard drive was clicking while it worked so I don't have a gut feeling that hard must the disc are dead and causing the cell not to return as when I power it on I get no hard drive light shape or sound the HDD at all.

    Even I get nothing on the screen. Not even the Red sign boot Toshiba. So, it's worry in me as well.

    Thank you, Claude

    Hello

    I put t think it is a HARD drive problem.
    If the HARD drive is dead, you will receive a message on the screen saying that the laptop is not able to find a boot device.

    If the Toshiba start screen does not appear I think that it s something wrong with the motherboard. I guess that the graphics card is dead. But to be 100% sure, verification is required.
    In my opinion, you should ask a partner or a technician for assistance.

  • Pavilion HPE H8-1121: Pavilion HPE H8-1121 - new graphics card + power supply does not start after screen HP (Revisited)

    I have the same problem as this post 2013!  Ouch. Pavilion HPE H8-1121 - new map chart + power supply, does not start after HP screen.

    I installed a new power supply (Seasonic 620W), which works well.  I also installed a GTX 660Ti last year and it was works fine as well.  I recently bought a ZOTAC GTX 970 and attempted to install it, but it will not go beyond the blue HP screen and I get the same code of beeps (1 long, 3 short), who, seems, suggests that the video is not initialized.

    My BIOS date is 2011.

    Where can I find an update for this?

    I'm also using Windows 10, which I found on the HP site is not tested on my model and would probably not favourable to good use.  Should I do back up to 7 or 8?  and then update the BIOS?  Y at - it a update for my BIOS and where can I find.

    In any case, I hope that this is a solution.  Again, this is not a bad machine to be 5 years old.

    Thanks for any help!

    If the video card that you have purchased dose not a legacy vBIOS it will never start. An update of the BIOS doesn't solve that.

    It is likely that your new video card has a vBIOS UEFI and that only is for the PC motherboards newer than yours which have a UEFI BIOS. Your motherboard has a legacy BIOS. 2012 is the year of model when the UEFI BIOS more or less became the de facto on motherboards standard.

    I return it for a refund. Find the candidate of video cards that support the old BIOS. It can be inherited only or switchable vBIOS (legacy or UEFI) vBIOS.  I suggest looking at the site of Sapphire Technology. ZoTac is not known to provide enough information about their video cards in the way. You upgrade a pre-built desktop PC and it's different and a little more difficult to set up a DIY PC. I looked at the site of Zotac and see that nothing is said about their video vBIOS cards.  I would return to the map.  Carefully read the specifications of the video card. A candidate for your motherboard card must have inherited vBIOS support or simply, it won't work.

    ZOTAC (they don't say anything about their product vBIOS)

    http://www.sapphiretech.com/catapage_pd.asp?cataid=305&lang=eng

    Because you look at game with 4 GB cards. Take a look at the following map. It has a double vBIOS. legacy and UEFI. http://www.sapphiretech.com/productdetial.asp?pid=640A98CD-0CF0-4191-B75C-CA2800111ADB&lang=eng

    It is possible that your security (firewall, antivirus) software blocks or limit Firefox or the process of plugin-container without you inform, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.
