Re: Satellite C675 - BIOS cannot detect HDD

Hi guys,.
My BIOS doesn't detect the HARD drive. I don't see CD/DVD drive.
Value Mode SATA AHCI controller.

It still does not if I chose the default installation program.

When I try to start the system, it is said:
"Reboot select clean boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected boot device and press a key".

I couldn't reinstall/recover new CD cos Win7 system could not detect any drive during installation.

I put my HARD drive in the second laptop and it didn't work so I bought a new.

New HARD drive now is OK, because I've tried it with another laptop and it works fine.

Any ideas what's wrong with my laptop?
It comes to motherboard? If so, what should I do?

See you soon,.

> I couldn't reinstall/recover new CD cos Win7 system could not detect any drive during installation.

It s no matter if SATA is set to AHCI or compatibility mode. The HARD drive should be recognized by BIOS even if the AHCI mode has been selected.
On the first page of the BIOS disk HARD should be listed with the name and size.
If it isn't the case, it is possible that your HARD disk controller is defective.

What HARD drive you bought exactly? Is this a 2.5 SATA HDD?

    On the first page of the BIOS disk HARD should be listed with details such as the name and the size of the HARD drive.

    If his list, then you must run a HARD drive test. You could test the HARD drive by using a freeware tool called Drive Fitness Test.

    To do this, and if there is error, it means that your HARD drive is malfunctioning.

    Hello

    Enter the BIOS (by pressing F2 at startup) and try to check in the Bios if compatible keyboard, legacy usb support (something like that) is enabled. It should help.
    Otherwise, playing with the up/downgrade Bios (especially, demote) instead of keyboard problem, can cause the crash of the complete system with white screen.

  • BIOS cannot detect the drive msata

    I am trying to use an msata player in my m4700 precision but not very successful. I tried to use Crucial and mushkin in msata/WWAN slot. BIOS simply ignores the card. I heard he was trying ever since that it took a while for BIOS finished to start if I put the card.

    But he alread card list mini SSD to be {none}

    Does anyone have a similar experience?

    Packers dell offers a compatible dell certified msata card 256. .they delivered oriinally previous systems portable and with samsung pm830 256Go msata cards... samsung msata are not currently available for resale this invintory is used by OEMs, I was personally able to source 2 new samsung 256 GB msata (MZMPC256HBGJ - 0001D 1) via the internet outside India Mambai @ $350.00 / each you can order an msata of 256 GB of dell spare parts using the printer dell P/N MTT20 which is for a computer of dell desktop XPS 8500SE that uses also the same card 256 GB msata. Initially, I ordered a Dell, but they kept its replacement by a Liteon Dell P/n V6PN8 (LMT256M3M) 256 GB msata for the samsung pm830 msata... even you I have not specified no substitution... due to price I choose to send the dell back and keep the pm830 256Go s msata samsung... I set up my own M4700s accuracy with them 2 and one of my buddies with a 256 GB liteon you both work good... .only difference, it's the samsung seems to have better read/write speeds on the liteon... I've personally never tried a crucial msata, but I read the other posts that State they do infact on the m4700 work. Just a thought maybe your msata/wwwlan slot / port is bad or damaged or possibly the msata allignment slot on bottom of card has a Burr or incorrectly notched try a smidge to see if the pins will be properly align... Once you get the screw spindle allignment held in place of filing in the notch on the card, just a thought only other choice is to get Council MB or girl replaced by dell... Good luck, I hope do you run MAC ii

  • Satellite A60 does not detect Toshiba MK4025GAS HDD in BIOS

    Hello

    I've tried everything (updating the BIOS to 1.9, put a rider that cs, remove the DVD-ROM), but without success (by the installation of Windows XP, I see that drive, I can format it and copy the installation and startup system files failed).

    What is furious that this disk HARD 100% ok and work on Toshiba Portege 3500. I also tried an another HDD (60 GB IBM) to A60 and work correctly. Any ideas or is it just something religions?

    Hello oleg

    This HARD drive is listed as compatible for this model of laptop, and it should work properly.
    One thing I don't understand. In the topic, you wrote that A60 cannot detect HARD drive but if I understand you right, you have access and you can format the HARD drive and also to start the installation of Windows XP Home edition.

    Can you please be so kind and explain exactly what is wrong with the HARD drive.

  • Satellite L40 - installation of XP cannot detect HARD drive

    Hi, Toshiba support

    I have Satellite L40 - 18Y (PSL48E-03702NAR) with Windows Vista

    I want to install Windows XP, but I can't because my HDD is SATA and installation of windows XP cannot detect the HARD drive.

    I know that I have to update my BIOS.
    I have 2 files on Toshiba drivers download

    I downloaded their extract them & try to update the BIOS one. After that, I log in the BIOS
    I can't find (HARD drive Mode) must Mode IDE.

    How can I solve this problem?

    Hello!

    > How can I solve this problem?
    I think you find hundreds of discussions in the forum about this please use the forum search!

    A BIOS update is not necessary to install Windows XP. You only need the SATA drivers you can find in the Intel Storage Manager driver package that can be downloaded on the Toshiba site. Pilots must be integrated during the XP installation with an external floppy drive or use you nLite to create a new installation disc.

    Anyway, check this link from Toshiba which is an order exact step by step installation:

    Hi, I have a problem with my Lan port

    When I connected the lan cable only 1 light turn on and my system (Windows 7 Ultimate and Linux Ubuntu 11.04) cannot detect anything. Cable works at my book of fathers, but I have a problem, starting after that when I gived computer Service Center, I haved some problem with hard drive. Now, I don't have a warranty.

    How can I solve this problem?

    Toshiba satellite A200-1Z3 PSAE3E

    Thank you...

    Hello

    If the green light of LAN port lights if a cable is connected to the port LAN work physically so I doubt s faulty.

    The network adapter is in the Device Manager correctly and have you tried a driver update?

    Have you tested this situation on the factory settings?

  • Satellite T135D - cannot detect wireless networks

    I bought a T135D early January.
    Everything was happy until one day my laptop decides it cannot detect wireless networks, and even less to connect to one.
    I don't think the T135 came with a manual switch, while in the BIOS it says it's on.

    The graph with the antenna and 4 bars charge is no longer at startup, or the light that lights up on the front of my laptop. It's frustrating to have this kind of problem so early in the game with the T135D.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello

    The wireless network must be activated by pressing the FN + F8 key combination.
    Have you tried that?

    If not, please check it

    Of course, you must make sure that the WLan card driver is always up to date.

  • Update of the question on Satellite Pro L40 - 15A - old BIOS BIOS cannot recognize the EEPROM

    Hello

    I can't Flash my bios.
    I have a Satellite Pro L40 - 15A.

    The Toshiba winflash tool provided with the bios file tells me as the "old BIOS cannot recognize EEPROM.

    I was recommended to use AFUDOS on another forum, but telling me that the bios has a boot not block valid.

    Flas for back FRIEND tells me that the flash rom is write-protected? There is no option in the bios to disable and I don't think that anyone would be stupid enough to put a hardware Bios protect jumper on a laptop.

    The whole is really mysterious. In my opinion, there are two options;
    Either your have used and tried to install a bad graphics driver or there is something wrong with your GPU chip.

    You are 100% you tired of a graphics driver to the right of the European driver Toshiba page?
    If Yes, then I recommend contact the ASP in your country, as this could be really a hardware problem.
