Portege R500-S5001X will not start

My Portege R500 arrested last night when displaying "my pictures" and I was not able to do restart upward.

I removed the battery and turn the direct power, but when I power on I get the Toshiba with "Intel" page in the lower right and five icons feature lower downtown.

It will not boot to Windows, I know I should know, but I "think" it works under XP.

I have no recovery disks, he passed to us my father in law a few years ago and no supported drives has come that I can find.

Can someone help please!

Thank you
Tim

Hey,.

Can you please verify certain things?

You can start in safe mode? After you have powered on the notebook press key F8 to access the Windows Advanced Boot menu and select mode.

If you cannot access the t Windows Advanced Boot menu, you must check the BIOS if the HARD drive is recognized correctly.

  • 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

    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.

    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.

  • Recovery disk will not start on Satellite 1110

    I try to use the recovery on a Satellite 1110 CD. I want to just install fresh Windows. The necessary files are supposed to be on the Toshiba recovery CD that accompanies it.

    So I did what the brochure says, and booted up the laptop to the top with the correct CD in the drive, while pressing 'C '. The notebook ignored the CD ROM and loaded Windows as usual. I repeated three times, each time that the CD ROM whirs a bit but will not start and Windows loads as usual. I have replaced 'C' for F12, chose the CD ROM drive in the list and repeat the process several times. Yet once it wouldn't boot from the CD-ROM.

    I looked at the content of the CD ROM A single MB 447. File of the GHS. The file icon is that generic type "Windows does not know what program this icon is intended to" deals.

    Google believes it is a ghost file and must the ghost installed to run it. This bitch never came with Ghost.

    Anyone here knows a remedy to this problem?

    (NB - I tried clean Windows system restore option, but it just brings back me to September this year. Theres no option that was more early in life for portable computers)

    I am in the United Kingdom, and is a UK machine if that makes a difference.

    Hello Micha

    Is this your ODD works properly with the operating system?

    I put really know what exactly is happening here, but please make sure that you start with recovery CD number 1/2 2/2. The installation of recovery, you can just start with the first recovery CD. Also try please set CD-ROM as firs boot device in the BIOS.

  • L50 - B satellite will not start when the battery is completely discharged

    Hello

    My Toshiba L50 - B won't start when the battery is fully drained but connected to the power outlet.
    I try to work most of the time on the battery to keep the battery in good shape, but when I forgot to turn off the battery drains and the system will not start when I plug in the adapter.

    The battery charge indicator is orange light as it should. Only when the battery is fully charged to 100%, it will run at startup and function normally after that. I tried to turn on the laptop several times during the charge cycle, but only when the charge indicator changes from yellow to white it starts. Tested for 2 bodies.

    My old Toshiba always immediately turned on when I plugged the adapter even when the battery has been completely drained. Am I missing a setting somewhere?

    Thanks for responding... I hope well :-)

    Toshiba L50 - B
    Windows 8.1
    Any standard/original setting since I only acquired this laptop a month ago.

    The laptop should light up if the power adapter is plugged in and power the laptop corectly any if the battery is empty or during charge.

    Please check the version of the BIOS that is available on your mobile phone and compare with the BIOS available on the page of the Toshiba UE driver
    Maybe you need to update the BIOS, but to be honest, the history seems really odd to me and I m afraid that there could be some power supply electronic problem

    So in the worst case, the laptop must be checked by authorized service provider.

    I was in fedora, when I decided to restart Windows.
    Instead of grub, I saw message with the error and my notebook has stopped booting.

    I pressed the power button / stop, he died but when Im trying to start it again, I see the logo of Toshiba Leading Innovation and that's it.

    It will not start any further.
    I decided to get my system, but when I press F2 or F12, nothing happens.
    I can't get into the BIOS!

    Please, help me to solve it.

    Somehow, this seems really strange
    I m wondering why you are unable to access the BIOS

    What you can try to do is, remove the laptop HARD drive and switch on and press F2.
    From my point of view of the rare even if the isn't HARD drive connected, you should be able to access the BIOS.

    But for Pierre, I'm not very well your laptop problem is related to the faulty / corrupt Boot partition m
