Portege R100 will not start up CD

I have a r100 and has now no OS and worse still it used to boot from external cd please can someone advise me how can I reload windows xp and have my computer back

Hello

What external hard drive that you are using?
I read in this forum of Toshiba that not all external drives are compatible.
You need a support if you want to boot from the CD!

You know the knowledge base of Toshiba?
I studied at this page and found this article:

  • Portege R100 does not start

    Can someone help me please. My Portege R100 does not start, when I turn the following text appears: in touch with tomorrow toshiba. After a few seconds a black screen with a blinking cursor on the left side of the screen.

    Thank you very much

    Hi Rehana,

    The Toshiba screen you will see first is the initial start screen is displayed while loading the BIOS. Once the BIOS has completed its process of loading, the system tries to boot the operating system and it is at this point that you have found the black screen with the blinking cursor in the upper left.

    Unfortunately, this indicates usually that the laptop can not load the operating system from the hard drive, or because the hard disk itself has not the contents have been damaged somehow.

    You might try to charge your laptop in 'safe' mode (press F8 during the initial loading of the BIOS) or you can try to boot your laptop from a bootable CD/DVD and hard drive.

    Finally, you can try to re - install your OS from the recovery CD.

    Kind regards

  • Portege 3500 will not start up disk

    Hello

    I recently acquired the laptop above. I decided that I would try to reconstruct it, bad idea.
    I don't have an external CD or recovery CD but I have another laptop and a Windows XP CD.

    I removed the HARD drive the 3500 and put it in my other laptop. I formatted the drive and installed windows. Everything worked Ok and good boots in my other laptop. When I put the disc in the 3500 however, it will not start. All I see is a black screen, not even a cursor or any error.

    I tried to format the drive again and the sys'ing, it does not work. I tried installing on my other laptop then continue on the 3500 but that doesn't work either.

    I was wondering if the 3500 was looking for a partition that I deleted. I don't see why it will not start when start up ok in my other laptop HARD drive.

    Someone at - it ideas?

    Thank you
    Simon

    I don't think that this has nothing to do with the score. You get the black screen, because the other laptop is quite different installed on Windows ACPI etc.
    If you have a usb floppy drive try this:
    1 partition and format the disk with Fat32 (or fat 16).
    2. from your installation CD copy the i386 on the partition directory (attach the HARD drive to another laptop)
    3. start the P3500 leave a floppy disk bootable BACK, change to the I386 directory and start the winnt.exe

  • Portege R100 - does not start from CD player

    I have Toshiba Portege R100. I want to format and start all over again

    I use killdisk, excellent utility program, normally takes place the disc cd but the machine does not start from cd player, even when it is said in the bios, it says 'error of cable' & drive still works fine when the system is installed & running

    I want to remove unbuntu & just xp, thought that I would start plus-plus easy or simply to remove unbuntu?
    If remove unbuntu, how can I do this?

    Best regards, TIM

    Hey Buddy,

    If you want to have XP only, try to boot from a XP disc. You can format the drive HARD whole with XP disc that even Ubuntu is installed. I put t understand why you use another program to format the HARD drive

    Then boot from a XP disc and follow the instructions on the screen. If it doesn't work, it seems to be the material of your player to malfunction.

    Some of the fundamental things include the pram/clock battery replacement

    since they may be dead; then with a power failure, sometimes the Mac

    do not restart. Usual power management unit & reset NVRAM/PRAM are

    methods that sometimes also used as a troubleshooting measure.

    • Reset the Mac chip power management: (see SMU)

    http://www.thexlab.com/FAQs/resetpmchip.html

    • How to reset NVRAM-LANDAU on your Mac - Apple Support

    A hard reset can sometimes be used, where the power is disconnected

    the logic board and power removed from grill; Then push the Start button / stop.

    (But maybe not. Several PowerMac computers, I had, some people found this helpful)

    You may also remove and reposition cards and other items

    the inside of the case, to be sure they are connected properly. Be sure to not

    In short anything, due to the static load or residual power in the circuits.

    The hour is late here, so I'm not going offline; If all goes well a battery original or novel, etc.

    can help to put it on again. Also sometimes the power supply has some faulty fans,

    circuits or capacitors, so they can be troublesome to repair or replace.

    Good luck in this case!

    If you can't get the iMac began and ongoing implementation, you will not be able to use the target disk Mode:

    https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT201462

    Then the option is to take the iMac HARD drive, install it in an enclosed, and connect the HARD drive to the MBA via the USB port.  If the HARD drive is recognized, you can copy the data out of it.
