R51 has black screen - does not start

This question has been taken before, but I think I may have a unique situation.

My R51 worked perfectly and was maintained during the 8 years that he was with me. I wanted to update my RAM and downloaded the update to the BIOS and chipset drivers updates.

After that the tension I pulled the old 256 MB RAM sets under the keyboard and the bottom of the machine. Then I inserted the only 2 GB of RAM into its slot under the keyboard and reassembled it.

Black screen / no start

Went out the 2 GB replaced sets of 256 MB and it worked fine for a few hours that I looked for reasons why the 2 GB would not work.

' Sudenly the screen goes black and the closed system.

It will supply (battery light / light green status), but the screen is black and it does not start. The fan is running and the battery costs.

I tried hitting F12 and F8 but nothing.

Then, I stored it down and pulled the chip near the connector of the screen and replaced by a spare part I had in hand... still nothing.

From the CPU and replaced by another I had on hand - nothing new.

I put all the oringinal gear back in place and tried to put pressure on the Board of Directors for the boot but still nothing.

Help, please! I'm not very tech savvy but as you can see I'm not afraid to try.

Thank you

Thanks George!

I was able to get the other 51 R spare parts and does the job!

Send this message to him now.

I want to send my thanks to all on this forum. It was the first time ever, I cracked the case on a laptop. Thanks to posts in these forums, I had confidence and information to see the job through.

I have more no fear an attempt to repairs on the Thinkpad.

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is here.
    Did you do something that might be responsible for this? Something like the update of the BIOS?

    If I understand you well portable stays all the TIME and everything is as usual, but there is nothing on the screen. Try to connect the external display on your machine and check if something will be displayed on the external screen.

    Please test first and send feedback.

    Scratches it down. Nothing appears out of the ordinary.
    Searched the web. This seems to be a common problem with Toshiba laptops.
    Common fix is supposed to be the power button that is held for a minute or two with battery. This does not work in this case.
    I would rather not throw the laptop in the bin...

    Any ideas before doing the Act, would be greatly appreciated.

    Skips

    Something like this can happen on any laptop so there is nothing directly with Toshiba or any other laptop manufacturer.
    Sometimes this kind of behavior can occur after unsuccessfully BIOS updated. Have you can be made to update the BIOS or anything that may be responsible for this?

    I can't say for sure, but somehow I think the BIOS is screwed.

  • Black screen, does not start in safe mode - how do I restart my mac

    Hello, I have a MacbookPro, that all of a sudden will not start. I believe that the problem - from what I've read-, is that memory is simply too fulll. I tried to start in Safe Mode, but of course it doen't work. The screen displays a small bar as it loads, but after a while goes back to the same blank screen and nothing happens. I tried waiting half an hour, but nothing changes. I have not tried to launch utility disk in Recovey Mode because I'm afraid of what will happen to my files. Unfortunately, I unwisely postponed to back up files and now I'm afraid to do anything that my fry them all without me even realizing it. Can you offer any solution that is as safe as possible?  I don't have a cable Thunderbolt.

    Thank you

    If you think that the MBP storage is full and not allowing you to start, try the target disk mode:

  • Black MacBook does not start

    I have a 10 year old black Macbook, which does not start when a battery is installed.  If it is connected without battery installed, it lights up, but if there is a battery in it, even if it is plugged in, it will get the startup sound and the screen of the Apple gray, then turn off.  I got a new battery and charge it where the charger turned green, but the results are the same.

    Any suggestions?

    It is difficult to say what is happening with this machine, since the time and wear are considerations. I don't know what version of the operating system that you use, but there is a sequence of things you should do - in order of severity.

  • Black 2 does not start

    My 2 black lights, but he currently goes to the start menu. It does not start from the internal drive, or ANY 32-bit windows media 8.

    He sees recovering black USB, but try to select results in a black screen for a few seconds, then it returns to the start menu.

    Its solved! It turns out that my iso was corrupted, so even if it passes the checksum and extraction, USB resulting was not bootable.

  • Satellite P305-S8820 won't start no-POST 'BLACK SCREEN' will not start up CD

    When the HARD drive is connected Vista does not start, regardless of the boot order. Instead, it shows just a black screen with no cursor. Supplied recovery disks will not start. I removed the HARD drive and ran a scan of the disc to see if the drive went wrong, no dice, the disc is good and works fine via usb-sata on another computer.

    I inserted just the toshiba recovery disk, without HARD drive, and it starts. I connected the external HARD drive now and vista tries to start BSOD, I tried safe mode, last known, everything, nothing works, all get a BSOD disappearing too fast for me to read.

    I searched a dump file on my other computer and was a failure. When the HARD drive is connected via usb vista tries to start and the toshiba cd works now, however, it will not perform a complete installation of factory toshiba it does not find the HARD drive? I'm a windows user and I have years of experience with x 86 programming and windows 32-bit operating systems, but I'm stumped. Bad RAM? Bad Sata? Bad HARD drive? Bad CD/DVD? It is Vista Home premium.

    I don't want to reformat and lose all my data "I AM A REAL 'IT' not a silly computer user" no offense to all the others out there but I refuse just "format and forget ' tools used invites to rebuild the BCD and this does not work either and automatic repair does nothing, recovery does not work as it says there is no recovery points I am frustrated beyond words.

    Finally, this operating system is just horrible, I was once the 'happy' owner of a copy of Windows ME and it does not give me half of the problems that makes this operating system.

    I'm fed up with this, and am half tempted to ask my money for my computer, it might not be the responsibility of the user barely shoot / resolve these problems, they should be addressed before the product was released.

    I am at a loss. Help, please.

    Thank you

    Kevin

    I'm a bit confused with the info given, but if you can not restore/repair Windows, while you should do is back up your data to another PC using a USB adapter, and then run the recovery on the HARD drive internal in the P305.

    You must also update the BIOS.

  • Re: Black magic does not start on my Satellite Pro

    Hi there guys

    I have a program that I have loaded on my PC laptop Toshiba Pro. Its an official black drawings magic program related to video Production.
    The program is designed to work with Windows 7 but he hesitates because it is start and then gives an error window that says that there is a flaw in the aticfx32.dll prog.

    The strange thing is that the program will start when the computer is in safe mode and give the correct opening screen.
    Obviously I can't use it in safe mode as I have all the correct connections of the machine.

    Is the strangest thing is that I was able to make it work on 2 other machines one with XP and one with Vista and it controls the video speed very well. (the other machines are workstations so I can't really use it, I need to be portable)
    Someone else saw the above error? and why it starts ok in safe mode?

    Andy

    Hello Andy

    Toshiba doesn't support any third party application, so please, contact the program manufacturer and ask for help.
    They have the best experience with own product and should be able to help.

  • P400 only black screen will not start.

    My Lenovo was plugged to an outlet controlled by a switch which, during the night, someone off my battery to die.

    So the next morning I turned on after letting it load and only the keyboard illuminated by a screen empty.

    The fan on for a brief moment and stopped.

    The only answer I get from the laptop is a beep when I unplug or plug in the AC adapter.

    I removed the battery, which held the power, trendy french adapter started and got the same result. Even after connecting the battery back in.

    I also tried to connect another monitor, but the result is the same and the monitor only records that the computer is turned on.

    How can I get my computer on without having to send to a lenovo repair center?

    I discovered the motherboard was broken. Thanks for help.

  • Black screen, high regular of underscore on the left does not start after reflashing the BIOS F.38 on HP2000-363NR

    HP2000 363NR, recently tried flashing the BIOS F.38 (here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-116227-1&cc=us&dlc=&lc=en&o... ) to solve a problem of overheating.

    Well, it was a mistake.

    Now it does not start at all.

    Fans spinning upwards. Hard disk rotates.

    By pressing ESC, F1, F2, F9, F10 and F11 at startup to give appropriate (fast!) messages but then go to the same place:

    Black screen with flashing underscore in the top left. Leave it to this screen has no effect.

    Never see no text except the quick messages in the lower left (or "Press the ESC key for the system menu" down left based on nothing).

    Out and the relocation of memory does not work. Boot with a DIMM module does not work. Now hold power for one minute while the battery and plug on does not work.

    Battery is fully charged.

    OS is Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium, came with the laptop.

    Is it possible to return this BIOS?

    -Me

    Thanks to Xraytim in the post below, short-circuit the battery CMOS me returned to the previous BIOS. Need to remove card system as a whole to achieve this * beep * connector, but 34 screws later (34 = some # between 15 and 50), BIOS is back, problem solved.
