• Satellite A40 will not start or start the BIOS

  Hello

  I have a portable Satellite A40 2 days ago decided to turns off while I was on the internet, and now it does not restart. I tried removing the battery and leave overnight, but it still will not start. When give you it power outlet, the AC LED is green and if you press the button power turns on the green power light, but that's all, the HARD drive light does not illuminate, the fan does not come on, no sound from the HARD drive and nothing on the screen, not even the backlight. You can also feel the heatsink gets hot (without excess however)

  If you insert a CD, you can here read the disc, and find things out there, too, now the power button still cut off the laptop.

  If anyone has any advice on what may be the cause, or any way I can get the machine to reboot again, that would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  Have you tried to connect the laptop to the external monitor to check if pictures or anything else appears on the second monitor?

  Your description sounds like the malfunctioning of the internal display, but it is only a suggestion and a few trials are required to obtain a diagnosis right.

• Satellite A500 will not start

  I have an A500 on 12 months old that will not start.

  The battery light shows white and power on AC light is on as well.
  When button "power on" is pressed and released the laptop IT flashes briefly then the battery lights up orange briefly and the light goes out.

  Battery has been divested of the case and it was completely discharged and it still will not with or without the battery. He has been connected to a different power of toshiba with the same results.

  The difficulty feeding saw two days ago. After that about 10 minutes to load then turned on.

  I saw a post where the guy was acquitted of the internal cmos memory and he ends up - which would have something to do with it?

  Any clues anyone?

  Hello

  I think that it s something wrong with the motherboard or a part of the motherboard.
  The point is this laptop should turns on even if the battery is empty and the power adapter is plugged so maybe it s something wrong with the memory supply or electronic power on the motherboard.

  I recommend you check the parts of memory first. Remove a module and try to start the device using that one module.

  Of course this can not help you too... so in this case, it could be a severe motherboard issue...

• Re: Satellite U300 will not start

  The machine has failed at a conference while using only the word and not on any network.

  Now the machine will not start orrepair and even the recovery disk will not work. He gets to the part where he asked for the language and then freezes on the next screen. I ran a disc hard diagnosis progam which reports no errors but I don't know enough about such things.

  The drive light flashed hard and I can hear the work of the reader, but nothing happens.

  Help, please

  Hello!

  It's strange, but in your case I would try to format the HARD drive before using the recovery disk.
  There, you can use the Microsoft Windows XP disk or another tool that allows you to format the HARD drive.

  If you have formatted the drive HARD try again with the Toshiba recovery disc.

  Good bye

• Satellite A100 will not start

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A100-151, which does not start.

  A batery 11 times blink when I press the a/c power and nothing happens.
  Before that, I pressed too many keys f1 - f12 because it has stopped responding and a blue screen (memory error in the kernel) appeared.

  I tried:
  out/HDD, memory slot, battery and tried also reset with the AC button pressed without the battery.
  Thanks in advance for any helpful advice.

  Best regards

  As you know on this virtual path is not easy to say what the problem is here, but after reading your ad, I think there must be a problem with electronic control gear. It is placed on the motherboard.

  Problem is that work around is quite limited and I can see what you have already tried all the logical steps to check if computer laptop will be able to start on a path.

  I'm afraid it is worth noting that you can do except to communicate with the service of Toshiba and ask help from m.

• Satellite M40 does not start

  I have several problems with my Satellite M40-149.
  When to stop crashes on a blue screen.

  Almost impossible to start. After a few shakes and if its my llucky day, it starts, but in most cases crashes to the Toshiba logo "in touch with tomorrow" with the four symbols for hd, cd, floppy and script. I did all the tests, I could find, there is no virus, the hd is ok (I tried several) and after successfully
  start the screen looks ok to me.

  I even tried Linux on another with almost the same results, very difficult to start.
  Is there another test, I could do (except the Toshiba test)?

  Any suggestions on where to find are welcome!

  Hi dimlog.

  This seems a bit strange as a hardware problem. I can t imagine it has something to do with the software, for example. If the computer laptop doesn't boot correctly and freezes on the screen Toshiba (BIOS screen) something wrong with the hardware.

  I m not a technician but maybe the motherboard is the reason for this. But to make sure that it is the cause of the laptop should be checked by a technician of the laptop.

  If you can fix it yourself, also have a look on eBay for second-hand parts they are cheaper as new parts.

  Good luck!

• Satellite L300D will not start

  Hello

  I have a satellite L300D 11v. Power I have three lights green, power, suite and battery, DVD looking for some time nothing happens.

  Tried many things.
  Interchangeability and remove the ram with restarts
  Removing and replacing HD
  Remove the battery, hold the power button for a minute then power application and try to turn on,.
  As above with the battery.
  None of the above has worked, I suspect either of the BIOS chip lost his memory or it is fried.
  I will try to reinstall the BIOS memory, but without the work of the OS I'm not sure how do.
  And I'm not sure that the update of the BIOS I downloaded from Toshiba is correct because of the manual I downloaded was the L350, and yes I have enter the correct details to try three times. Neither seem to be able to know which is the BIOS. I would be grateful if someone could suggest what's wrong with the laptop or the update of the BIOS with the laptop in its current state. And if anyone knows what variant of the BIOS, is that I would also be grateful for this information.

  P.S. I noticed that the same problem was raised on August 12, 2012 with no resolution found.

  On this virtual path t is not easy to offer accurate diagnosis and to say with certainty what the problem is here, but somehow, I think that your BIOS chip is damaged. BIOS update will not help you with that.
  When you start your laptop is stays on or turns off after a certain period of time?

• Satellite A65 will not start and I get only the blue screen!

  When I start my satellite A65 a blue screen comes up saying "a problem has been detected and windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
  It says to check if I have enough disk space or to disable or update the driver, if a pilot has been mentioned in the stop message... or to check the updates to the bios...
  I can type everything that said if I need, but the jist

  The world is - that sound familiar at all?
  It may be because I was not updated enough when he told me to.
  It does not start, not even on safe mode, and it won't let me not restore, which I would be perfectly willing to do at this point.

  help, please
  Joly

  Hello

  The blue screen of death usually occurs because of the serious software problem or due to malfunction of the equipment.
  In your case, it looks more like something wrong with the hardware. Why, because you're not able to restore the laptop from the recovery CD Toshiba delivered!

  Need buddy? I think that the laptop should be verified.
  Try to contact an ASP in your country and ask for later handling.

  Good luck

• Satellite L300 - will not start after the installation of Skype

  My Toshiba Satellite L300 won't start after installing Skype.
  This happened to someone else, and can I do?

  Thank you.

  I think Skype is probably the most used messenger and ideal application for communication.
  It is professionally designed and programmed. As you know in recent years, it has been offered in many different versions and it is always better and better.

  So I think that Skype itself is probably not the problem. I know that a lot of people also use Skype and I've never heard problem described.

  Anyway, what you can try is to remove Skype and try to install it again. Try also push the BONES at that earlier time. Maybe some Microsoft updates are responsible for the stability of the software.
  It's really not easy to say what the problem is here.

• Satellite M40 does not start from hard disk - read error

  "I push the button - briefly see the In Touch with tomorrow TOSHIBA screen - then ' + a disk read error occurred press Ctrl Alt Del to restart +".

  I control alt delete brings me briefly on the screen TOSHIBA where I can choose either F2 or F12.

  Do I need a startup disk and where can I get one in order to boot from the CD ROM?
  Do I try to get into the Satellite M40 product Recovery DVD-ROM - this concern for me as the hard drive will be reformatted and all data will be lost.

  I'm stuck please help!

  Hello!

  If you enter the product recovery disc, Windows will be relocated and will be erasing all data on the HARD drive.

  I think that your HARD drive is damaged. You can check this with the Drive Fitness Test. Here you can download:
  http://www.HitachiGST.com/HDD/support/download.htm#DFT
  Download the CD image, burn it to a CD and boot from it. Then you can test the HARD drive.
  On the same site is a user's guide if you want to know more.

  By the way: you can save the data on the HARD drive, when you put it in a box external HARD disk. Then you can save the data on another PC, if the HARD drive is ok and have no errors.

  Good bye

• Satellite A660 will not start again until I turn safe mode

  Just buy the toshiba Satellite A660: I tell the story to compensate closely in my answer, I hope...

  I just buy new, run the Setup for first use. When its up and running only in that day, that I noticed it start to hang up when I plugged the drive external hard for some Installer (adobe lightroom).

  Its still very well, but when I disable it, it does not start again until I have run in safe mode so I can save some files and rerun recovery.

  This time on 64-bit. With its completion of its process, this works well for a few hours.
  He fell faster now, maybe because its on 64-bit? (any recommendation if its 32 or 64 bit) specifications: i5, 4ram, 1 g ddcatd graphics, family win7 premium,...

  Now when I turn it off it never early return time windows say... Startup Repair. ..
  I have let it run from this morning till now they can't always find what's the problem (I'm refernce the loptop).

  So no idea about whats goin?

  > He fell faster now, maybe because its on 64-bit? (any recommendation if its 32 or 64 bit) specifications: i5, 4ram, 1 g ddcatd graphics, family win7 premium,...

  64-bit operating system is better if your computer supports 4 GB or more of RAM.
  Why? Because 32-bit Win recognizes max 3.2 GB, even if more RAM is available.
  It's limitation of 32-bit; regardless of what OS it is; Linux, Win XP, Vista, Win7, etc.
  This is the reason why the 64 bit OS are so popular in the last time

  With regard to the issue of the BONE;
  I recommend that you run a disk recovery again... This means that you need to reinstall the OS usign the option recovery Toshiba;
  During the turning on the laptop press F8, choose fix my computer-> drive HARD recovery

• Satellite U500 will not start

  Hello

  I have a problem with my Toshiba U500 after I installed additional 2GBs of ram that the laptop does not start.
  He died immediately after, after I press the turn on button.

  The leds blink normally.
  I already tried to remove the new RAM and tested new and old memorys in different locations.

  I also tried to reset the bios by removing the cmos battery, but it seems that you cannot be disconnected.

  Any help would be appreciated.
  Sorry for my bad English and thanks in advance.

  Hi mate

  Notepad starts correctly using the old modules shipped with the laptop?

  In my opinion, you bought RAM that is not fully compatible with the laptop or BIOS.
  In this case, you should test the device with other modules of RAM of the manufacture of some users here in the forum reported problems with the essential modules I use Kingston modules and my notebook starts fine

• Re: Satellite A300 will not start

  Hello!

  I have a Toshiba A300 for a few years. I've updated with a new RAM module last week. I tested it with 86 memtetst and everything was fine, but this week he has started acting strangely.

  The laptop starts fine, just turn the ODD disc (the orange led flashes), however the ODD is the last boot device in the bios.

  This problem has a connection with the new ram, or is it only the fault of sides?

  Hello

  What do you mean by it does not start correctly?
  You can start the Windows system?
  Do you see the Toshiba start screen at the beginning.

  How about you, removing the new RAM and trying to boot the device with the old module?

• Satellite A500 will not start - cannot access BIOS

  Hello

  This morning, I got my satellite a500-1GH. I activated the option "quick start" in the bios and can not enter the bios since the screen jump the "f2" for the parameters and f12 for the boot menu and I can't get into the bios.

  I tried press f2, as soon as I turn on the computer but it dosent get into the bios menu.

  And also the custom of the bone rises, the stack of the screen in 'bbs-hard disk... boot. "and it stay like that until I shut down the computer.

  Please help me here...
  Thank you!

  Hello

  To me it seems strange that you can not enter the Bios. I just suggest you plug the keyboard external usb and try to enter the Bios (maybe, for some reasons allowing the quick start, the laptop keyboard doesn't work pressing f2). Then try to remove the hard drive and check.

  I've no idea what to say, maybe other users will also suggest something.

• Satellite M70 will not start

  Hello
  I have a big problem with my Satellite M70. I can't pass on this laptop, by AC or battery. lamp power shines for 3 seconds and then turns off, also fan who jumps for about 3 seconds. Then it is a cell phone dead. What can I do or where the problem lies?
  who can help me?
  Dieter

  Hello Dieter

  Have you updated something on this unit (e.g. RAM)? Try removing the battery and start unit with AC adapter only. If nothing works I recommend you contact the service partner in your country as soon as possible.

  I'm not an expert, but it cannot be anything like hardware related issue and must be verified by the service. Perhaps that the CPU is not cooled properly and the temperature is too high within 3 seconds and unit just turns off.

  I guess you are from the Germany, and you can contact a service partner it. Addresses you will find under http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_gaspLocator.jsp?pf=true

  Good luck!
