Portege R700-17Z bios not recognizing USB devices

Hello

I'm after some advice on a problem I'm having with my R700, I can't get the laptop to recognize USB hard drives start-up stage. I am trying to use Acronis to create an image that I have 40 of these laptops.

The CD-ROM USB CD drive is recognized and is therefore a Corsair USB pen (which is unfortunately not large enough), but I have three hard drives USB (a Freecom Tough Drive, Buffalo MiniStation and Western Digital passport) and none of them are recognized by the BIOS. Legacy USB emulation is enabled.

Am I missing something?

Thank you, Karen

Hello

The BIOS does not support * USB HDD * as a boot device. Any reader USB CD/DVD or USB stick is bootable USB devices.

  • Bluetooth Lenovo S10e has stopped working - device not found / not recognized USB device.

    Hello

    For no reason that I know, installing bluetooth on my small S10e has stopped working.

    I noticed a few times when stop I had a "BTstackserver" does not message.

    I use the laptop to download regularly from a device compatible bluetooth.

    Today, when I go to connect, it says "bluetooth device not found".

    "Verify that your device bluetooth is properly connected and turned on".

    Hardware manual displays the config of LED and is correct, that if I press the "Fn" keys and "F5", I get the menu to turn on and off both the wireless and Bluetooth. I can turn on and off Bluetooth and wireless both with this menu option, BUT when I activate the bluetooth, I get the message 'one of the USB devices attached to the system is faulty or is not recognized.

    I deleted the Bluetooth installed and re-installed software by using the two bluetooth install files published on the list of drivers on lenovo S10e. Neither one works. I know that you need to install dir C:\DRIVERS once Setup has finished unpacking.

    I tried several other obvious things but without success. I also enabled "Bluetooth coopération" in the wireless LAN settings.

    All I can do now is get to the Bluetooth device under the keyboard cover and take a look at that? Anyone who has any suggestions until I get out the screwdriver? (The unit is out of warranty).

    I received my replacement bluetooth module and installing it, bluetooth is working again.

    I keep getting "BTW stack server" stopped responding when stopped down, but this does not seem to cause any problems.

    Too bad that original bluetooth module did not survive barely a month after the end of warranty date...

    I'm used to a greater reliability of Lenovo.

  • Portege R700-17Z - upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit

    Hello

    I currently have a Toshiba Portege R700-17Z.

    I want to increase the amount of RAM from 2 GB to 8 GB, and therefore I want to run 64-bit Windows. I was planning on running a clean reinstall, but 64-bit Windows built into this machine? Or I need a disk full?

    If I need a drive in its own right, any ideas on how to do it without an optical drive?

    Thank you very much!

    The first news on RAM upgrade: you're right. You can upgrade your Portege up to 8 GB and 4 GB compatible modules have part number PA3677U-1M4G.

    According to the specifications of the laptop your Portege shipped with WIN7 32 BIT PROFESSIONAL, but it is supported for Win7 64 bit. 64-bit drivers and tools specific to Toshiba and utility can be downloaded from the Toshiba download page.

    Now what is your decision? If you need assistance with installing the OS let us know.

  • Satellite C650 - USB ports not recognized in Device Manager

    When I turned off my cell phone, I lose the use of my two USB ports. The only way I can get back them is to use Device Manager

    Go into the Manager of peripheral devices, Bus USB controllers, there are 6 x Intel ICH9 Family USB Universal Host controller 2 x Intel ICH9 Family USB2 Enhanced Host Controllers and 7 x USB hub root. When I lose the USB ports, USB root hubs seem to disappear, and the only way I can get back them is to uninstall the controllers and then right-click Universal Serial Bus Conrollers for "scan for changes on the hardware. This brings back the root hubs and USB ports work fine... until the computer turns off again.

    Someone at - he encountered this problem and managed to resolve it? Its a hassle to have to go through the uninstall it / Reinstall procedure each time. Your advice will be appreciated.

    Hey Buddy,

    You use the version preinstalled Windows from Toshiba or did you install your own version? I don't see any information about the BONES in your ad...
    Theoretically, it could be a software problem so ports USB work correctly if they recognized in Device Manager

    You should also try to update the Web from Toshiba site chipset driver. Maybe it helps.
    Otherwise, I could imagine that the update of the BIOS can also operate and this update you can get on the Web from Toshiba site too.

    Success!  I had to manually start the device loader.  Even if the service has been set to autostart, it did not work.  Right-click on the service shows that the beginning was selectable.  Click Start and the service began.  Start to MAX and can now see the device.  Open the front panel.

    How does the monitor devices OR running in the interface of the status bar to the device loader service?

    Is there a way re install the software for the USB that comes with the CD of the OS? I also searched on Toshiba, but there is no update for the USB driver.

    Last January, I re installed Windows XP on this laptop and at that time there all worked as it should. Now, we're back in the Park and the laptop was not for months and it all started with the USB recognizing one of my memory sticks.
