• Cannot get Z3 - 615 to boot from USB or CD/DVD

  I've been trying to get a Z3-615 to boot from the CD/DVD or a USB bootable device. All my attempts have failed. I have checked all the settings of the bios, changed the boot order and all other options. I try to boot from a well-known Windows 7 disc. I tested the CD and USB on other devices and they work perfectly.

  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  to install windows 7 on your desktop, you must move from UEFI to legacy, disable secure boot and allow to launch the CSM.

• Problem when booting from USB and bootable DVD

  I tried to boot from a bootable DVD to try Linux and install it. So pressing F9 to select the boot device, so I chose DVD ROM drive But it still does not start.

  Note: It starts on the first run. When I restart the PC and try again to start from the DVD, it jumps the DVD playback. Same thing happens with the USB key. I tried all USB ports.

  Another time all USB ports too and this pen drive work well and the DVD. Don't know what the problem is.

  Please tell me is there any problem with the BIOS?

  Thank you.

  In each market, unless F9 (for most HP computers and laptops) is selected to change the order, BIOS will look on the bootable devices (USB HDD, ODD,) in the order that they are configured in the BIOS settings.

  A usb device is not in the list of the BIOS boot order, as it is generally not available and only temporarily inserted.

• Can't boot from USB or CD/DVD to boot.

  I'm trying to install a new OS from a bootable DVD that I created. However, my T530 leader not from the DVD. I checked the boot order in the BIOS settings and even explicitly tried to force at the start of my DVD - ROM Sina the F12 boot menu. I was able to boot from this DVD on my other computer.

  Any way to diagnose whether my DVD-ROM is defective, or is there maybe some BIOS setting to fix this? I am able to read the disc in Windows, just can not boot from it. The laptop is brand new, just opened it today, so I don't know why something so simple that it would just work.

  You must disable startup secure, then tilt the machine mode Legacy BIOS UEFI.

• How can I boot from USB - Portege A200

  Hello

  I have a Portege A200 which is only a couple of years, but the hard drive no longer works. Initially, I thought that this was due to corrupt the boot disk record, but after trying to replace the drive hard (with two different readers), is showing a #0 IDE error when starting. So I came to the conclusion that the IDE controller chip is dead.

  In order to get labour latop, I burned a cd with the ubunto ISO. It starts off ok but due have only 512 MB of RAM, the system is somewhat limited and nothing installed is lost each time that I reboot.

  Now, I bought a 2 GB flash drive and installed ubuntu on it. My other problem is that there seems to be no boot from USB HDD or USB option in the bios.

  The options I can think of are:
  (1) Upgade the bios so that it supports the start of memory stick (although no HARD drive so do not know how I could reflash the BIOS or if there is even an upgrade of the BIOS that would support this feature)
  (2) create a cd that starts the boot process then tells the system to continue the initialization of the USB key (this is possible and does anyone know where I might be able to get these software)
  (3) boot from CD but the use of USB to keep any recorded information / everything installs etc (I suppose that similar to option 2 except the cd would manage the entire OS and USB would just "extra" information)

  If there are other options if someone may think I am happy to give them a go. Seems a shame to have to chuck to a laptop that is not particularly old, because the IDE controller chip has failed on the mobo.

  I have apppriciate any help anyone can offer.
  Thank you very much

  Hello

  First I have to say that it of not possible to boot from the external USB device as USB, CD/DVD USB drive or USB HDD.
  It of only possible to boot from the external USB FDD (floppy) disk

  However, no opportunities for startup are clear, but I think that you misunderstood the IDE #0 error message. According to m that the IDE controller is not defective but only the new drive HARD is not compatible and not recognized by the BIOS.

  There are different reasons for this problem
  For the most part this error message appears if the HARD drive master/slave/c-salt settings are not correct.
  Generally these settings don t need to be changed or switched on the 2.5 hard disks but some hard drives support a rider that needs to be fixed in the correct position. But I put t if your HARD drive supports this

  In addition, the size of HARD drive isn't is not compatible could be the reason for these error messages!
  I would recommend so finally communicating with ASP in your country to get a new, compatible HARD drive and see if the same error still occurs.

  Good luck

• Portege S100: Boot from USB?

  Hi guys, hope someone can help me.

  I recently got a Portege S100 with a DVD player that does not work.
  I swapped the drive with a working one, but still no joy.

  I was informed that it probably means that the problem is with the motherboard and is not really worth it on such an old model.

  The person who gave me the laptop said the rest is fully functional.

  However, my main problem is that the laptop is provided with no OS on the HARD drive.

  I have the original Toshiba installation DVD, but of course I can't boot from it as the DVD player does not work. Is it possible to boot from an external USB drive on this model?

  I looked at the boot order in the bios and I don't see an option for her, but I could be wrong.
  I do not want to splash out on a new USB key if there is no hope of the Portege grateful it.

  Any ideas?

  Thank you

  Have you had a glance at the user manual? Maybe he will mention the USB/Boot features.

  If you do not have the manual, you can download it from the site Web of Toshiba in the Drivers section.

  How to boot from usb?

  Hi esc.

  I think that you have answered the question yourself because you've posted all the startup options that are available and there is no option to boot USB on this laptop.

  All you can do is to install the latest BIOS, but as far as I know Satellite M40 can t boot from USB!

• Portege R500-12 s - problem of recovery (Boot from USB)

  Hello

  I tried several days reinstall this laptop (Toshiba PORTÉGÉ R500-12 s). I reinstall drive, but it has no CD-ROM included, so I'm fighting with booting from the USB port, with my external hard drive. Those that the BIOS loads even boot from USB? Because there is no alternative USB inside the boot priority. I noticed that I can choose from, what I think is alternative of different startup in start up, when I press the F12 key. When I press the F12 key and choose USB, I just pup up to a similar cmd command line.

  Reinstall is the only option because my laptop is super slow, and I have no restore file (CD) on my laptop

  Ultimately is it possible to reinstall windows via USB boot, or do I have to buy an external CD-ROM drive? Which is the last thing I want to do. Advice or assistance on how I'm going to do this?

  Thanks in advance :-)

  I put t know if this is possible, but if you can visit Toshiba service in your city, ask them for help. They have all the external devices and also external optical drive.
  Buy a coffee and ask if they can install just image recovery using your recovery DVDs. I m that they will help you with this.

  By the way: you can not install OS using the recovery saved on the HARD disk image. Laptop can't see it.
  What you need is the optical disk drive.
  Also, try to borrow a somewhere.

• Unable to boot from USB or ODD after that windows 8.1 update on P850 - 31L

  Hello

  I just updated a P850 - 31L for windows windows 8.1 8 by the windows store.

  Before the update, I was able to boot from a USB key by pressing F12 during the boot upward.

  After the update I was more able to boot from the USB drive. Select the USB key by changing the boot order in the setup of the BIOS via F2 or pressing F12 is no longer works.

  Booting from ODD also is no longer possible.

  The version of the BIOS is 6.70 and does not secure boot must be disabled. However the DVD and the USB I tried are signed Ubuntu 12.10, who worked before the upgrade. Fastboot in windows 8.1 is disabled.

  Then, this seems to be a bug in the BIOS Toshiba? Or a windows 8.1 update the BIOS or the boot EFI in a way partition replace the BIOS setting? Really stuck here, does not seem to be much information.

  Any ideas or help would be very appreciated!

  Thank you

  Update: I just tried to boot from the DVD of windows recovery 8 Toshiba and this does more or the other.

  Post edited by: michael_toshiba_forum

  OK I fixed that.

  First of all, it is to note that it is possible to turn off secure in the 6.70 BIOS startup.
  However this option is only available when the password is not defined in the Security menu.

  After activation or deactivation of the password a reboot is necessary to make the secure boot toggle option is available or not.

  It's good that I guess I assume that it can prevent secure boot are disabled when the machine is running. However this does not seem to have been associated with this problem.

  I selected the option "reset to factory defaults" in the output menu.
  The machine is then able to boot from USB and DVD. The boot order was also respected.

  Perhaps upgrading windows 8.1 corrupt invisible somehow the BIOS settings. Or maybe it was just a stranage coincidence that the BIOS itself corrupted during the installation. Anyway this factory reset fixed.

• Boot from USB on satellite L30 external HARD disk

  Hello
  Is it possible to start Windows XP (pro, sp2) of the connected by USB external HARD drive enclosure?
  Previous issues suggest that it is not possible (officially), but we (http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=21996) says it is. I tried to search for the method mentioned, but with no results (perhaps because English is not my native language).
  It is very important for me, and I would be really grateful if someone could give me a hint.
  Second issue is on "more" before the start of the HARD drive option in the BIOS (Phoenix afair). Is suggesting that it is possible to connect the drive then a more - if so, then how? Inside the laptop, of course, he has no extra room...
  Thank you in advance!

  Hello

  > I tried to search for method mentioned, but without any result
  As the other threads already suggest it of not possible to boot from the external USB HDD. You can boot from the disk, CD/DVD, floppy drive, LAN.

  The external USB FDD can be connected to the laptop and you could start in the back of the diskette.

  By the way; This laptop does not support select the Bay and you cannot insert a second HDD

• Satellite A25-S279 - Cant Boot From USB Drive

  Hello everyone. I'm new here.

  Is there anyway that I can boot from a hard disk on the A25 USB? In any case to update the BIOS to give me the option to boot from USB hard drive?

  I already went through the BIOS and used the HWsetup nothing helps.

  I want to run Linux on a mini-usb HDD, I just picked up, but I can't seem to boot from the USB connection.

  Please let me know.

  Hello

  You on the right, the BIOS supports a boot from the USB FDD.
  BUT it is not possible to boot from the USB HARD drive or USB key

  The BIOS offers these startup options:
  HDD, CD/DVD, LAN or USB FDD
