Re: Satellite L30 does not start after adding another stick of 1 GB memory

I bought 1 GB PC4200 533 MHZ DDR2 SODIMM memory module for my Toshiba Satellite L30 - 10v (PSL33E) to make it 2 GB. After you have added the 1 GB modules Satellite L30 wouldn't start. With only 1 GB, that it starts ok, with the other 1 GB origianal only boots ok. (The two modules are ZCE6 430 - K4T1G163QB Samsung 1 GB PC4200 533 MHZ DDR2)

The two modules of 1 GB boot not together. I noticed that many others have had this problem. (please see
This [t-22984]. post)
On this forum, someone bought the CT12864AC53E memory module which works, however I can't find this on the site of Crucial.
I've heard other purchase the sticks of memory CT572238 and CT572234 and have the same problems.

Memory Advisor says determinative buy the CT572234 memory sticks.

I have also updated the bios to V3.10, still does not start with the two modules.

I'm ready to buy 2 new modules, but what 2x1GB memory works?
Any help would be greatly appreciated...

For me it s case;
The two modules don't work together
Seems the modules are not compatible there is only one solution. Replacement of RAM!

Try other RAM modules.
I bought a few modules from Kingston and made good experience

  • Satellite L30 does not start after the upgrade to 2 GB of memory

    I bought 2 GB Crucial memory for my L30. After removing the 512 MB module and adding two modules of 1 GB the L30 wouldn't start. With only 1 GB start ok ok, with the other boot only 1 GB.

    Either 1 GB modules and module of 512 MB with start ok. The two modules of 1 GB boot not together. Crucial gave up and offered a full refund, but I'd rather have a solution if possible.

    At the BIOS level is 2V30, that I understand to be the latest version available.

    Ideas please, John

    Hello

    You're right, this problem seems very strange and I wonder why this happens.
    Satellite L30 certainly supports the 2 GB of memory and you should be able to upgrade with 2 x 1024Mo modules!

    It's strange, but it seems that these two modules are not compatible together
    I found Toshiba recommend module on options and accessories site.
    DDR2 400/533 1 GB (PA3411U-1M1G) maybe you could try this one...

    In any case, I don't think that you will be able to solve this problem in another way. The modules must be replaced.

  • Satellite L30 does not start after the BIOS update

    Hello

    I upgraded my BIOS Satellite L30 and now the laptop will not boot. When I turn on the fan starts and that's it. I think I have updated the book with the bad BIOS... The laptop is only 1 day old... Is it possible to reset the machine to the default BIOS.

    Help, please...

    Hi Scott,.

    Unfortunately there is no easy way for you to go to your BIOS to its previous level. You need to entrust your laptop to a Service approved partner who has the necessary equipment to Flash the BIOS to the previous level.

  • Win XP on Satellite M30X does not start after battery was flat

    XP on M30X will not start after battery was flat! Safe mode, last work... nothing works!
    The restore CD offers 3 options1: new installation, 2 toshiba recovery utility (expert mode) und 9 output.

    How do the XP Recovery console, or how to use 2 to restore the system without losing any files.

    Thanks for the tips.
    It is a nite Mare...

    Wolf
    Good day

    The point is that the Toshiba Recovery CD does not have the Windows XP repair console.
    The restore CD contains the image of Toshiba and you can just reinstall the system on the HARD drive and no repair.

    Now you have 2 options of recovery.
    First called standard recovery option would be to format the entire HARD drive and reinstalling the image.
    The second option called recovery expert allows you to reinstall the operating system on a selected partition. Then only this partition will be formatted.

    If you do not want to format the whole HARD drive then you select the second option and select the partition to a new operating system.

  • Satellite M200 does not start after the RAM 4 GB upgrade

    Hello

    I recently updated my RAM just to speed things up a bit as RAM is so cheap these days.
    I have a MEAC M200 T2130 Vista with 1 GB sticks (2 * 512).

    The new sticks are 2 * 2 GB Dane - elec DDR2 pc2-5300, when I put the two and restarted the hard drive light came briefly and then it is just options BIOS of Idol, no POST.

    I tried to use a single stick of 512 MB with two new sticks and they both work in a 2.5 GB configuration just not together that also this only works when the stick of 512 is in internal housing and not vice versa.

    So if someone has had a similar prob or can give me some advice that would be great, I'm not sure if the motherboard can support 4 GB?
    Thank you, Dave.

    Hello

    There are two possibilities why your M200 doesn't not start after upgrading RAM.
    First the RAM installed may be not compatible or could be faulty or the computer laptop doesn't support 4 GB of RAM.

    I put t know what M200 do you have exactly, but you can check the installed chipset and could check on the Intel page if this chipset would support 4 GB of RAM.

  • Satellite L30 does not start

    I have a Satellite L30 101 and since he was able to load!

    The first time I turned it on it loaded correctly, then once the Windows XP logo came to the top of the screen started showing horizontal lines across the screen pixelated. It was clear after some time he'll luckily to load properly, so I turned it off. I then loaded it up.
    The power led and the activity indicator is entered, but the screen remains blank and nothing loaded.

    There is also very little noise from the computer, I expect that there is some sort of noise from him during this phase. I tried to turn on the computer again just before sending to it the power light just now and still it will not load.

    Anyone know what could be causing this? Or have any ideas at all?

    I'm skilled enough to build desktop computers, computers laptops not so much, but I'm willing to try to disassemble the laptop to see if I can find something that might be wrong.

    Where would be a good starting point?

    About your message, to me, looks like the graphics card would give up.
    Pixelated horizontal lines could be a sign that would confirm my hypothesis.

    I fear that this could be a serious hardware malfunction: (m
    The graphics chip is attached to the motherboard and in this case the motherboard needs to be replaced
    and this could be an expensive affair because the motherboard is one of laptop parts cheap!

    However, these are only my personal assumptions and if you want to be 100% sure what harm s with your laptop, then a laptop technician should check the hardware parts

  • D30 does not start after adding drives to the UCS ports

    Hi all

    I have a Lenovo D30 workstation.

    I have my SSD on sata RED ports, and port orange is the DVD unit. So far so good.

    I added 4 drives, connected to the blue sata ports (reader1 4) while the system worked. I launched rest Intel and created a RAID5 volume. All work of until reboot. At the power, I'm looking to a flashing cursor, just after the message 'press enter to...'. In the BIOS I have excluded from the disk 1 to 5 ports such as boot (on 3 different from the menu) device.

    If I take the readers the system starts. After you add the I have to go back to the RAID and also workt fine. But I don't want to recreate the RAID unit after each reboot.

    I made a rookie mistake?

    Hello

    Type: 4354

    The machine is in UEFI

    The option does not appear in the BIOS post screen, however, if you press CTRL-I during post, then the rest option appears. It shows the right RAID config and all 4 disks are visible.

    Discs: 4 x HGST 7K 1000

    Note: This is the drives 2.5 ". I use a 4 Bay of Startech unit to mount in a 5.25 Bay in the system.

    http://www.StarTech.com/nl/en/HDD/mobile-racks/4-drive-25in-removable-SAS-SATA-mobile-rack-backplane...

    The bootdrive is a Samsung 850, 500GB connected to the SATA0 port.

    The system didn't need to start fron all the RAID, but only from the SSD.

    Edit: I deleted the RAID for the rest for the post. Created a RAID5 set and restarted the D30.

    Guess what... it starts as expected. The RAID5 volume present in the W10 and works very well.

    What is the difference in the creation of a whole in the rest menu during post and create one of in W10 RAID?

  • Is it possible to disable or remove an add-on from the outside of the FF (it does not start after adding an addon)

    I installed the addon and now FF won't start and seems to be a loop. Is it possible to uninstall the addon or configure FF so that it starts with disabled addons? Don't forget that FF does not at all so I don't have access to one of the internal functions.

    Release the FF is 17.0.1, on Windiows XP/SP3

    In addition, as soon as I did this, I would have the addon added to the red list.

    Open Firefox in Safe Mode diagnosis by holding down the SHIFT key when you start Firefox. Firefox will start with Extensions and some other things off. When done with the Safe Mode, the release of Firefox, wait a few seconds and click the Firefox desktop icon to start Firefox in normal mode.

    More info on who and by removing manually extensions, if any, included in the following articles:

    Additional follow-up questions:

    • Name of the add-on?
    • Link to which you downloaded the add-on?
    • Was this a separate application? If Yes, have you looked in Control Panel > add or remove programs (or programs and features) to see if it is listed and remove from there?
  • Satellite M45 - does not start after restoration on the new HARD drive

    I installed a new PATA 250 GB HDD on my pc. The BIOS is configured to boot from CD/DVD. Toshiba Recovery disk started cold, start follow-up statement to load a new system on the HARD drive. He made a (quick) format on the HARD drive, spent 50 minutes, copy the files from the CD to the new HARD drive. Followed the instructions to remove the CD and reboot the pc. Did. I get the Toshiba homepage for 2-3 seconds, and then I get a white screen with a white block cursor in the upper corner of the LH of the screen. Looks like it does not find the block on the HARD disk?
    The procedure of collection 3 times with the same results. Checked the BIOS to check that it is configured to boot from the HARD disk after installation.

    The recovery CD is blank. Never used because I bought the PC (3.5 years). Put the new HARD drive in a USB enclosure and formatted with Windows, tried again with the same result? Put the old HDD, PC starts and works very well. Put the live CD Knoppix and boot from that, works very well. See the new HARD drive.

    Thus, any suggestions are appreciated. The recovery CD Toshiba is defective? In any case to test?

    Thank you
    -J

    Hello

    Sounds like a problem with the recovery disk or the new HARD disk if your computer starts up fine with the old HARD drive...

    In your case before you start a lengthy discussion, you should try a Microsoft Windows disk to install Windows. If he work it seems that only the recovery disk is defective.

    Otherwise, the HARD disk must be defective. Maybe a bad sector or something else

  • Satellite A300 does not start after extinction during the BIOS update

    Hello

    I tried to update the BIOS after reading a TOSHIBA TEMPRO alert, after some time, apparently not run so I ran a second time, then both ask of BIOS appeared in the taskbar only and it froze while I did not start the upgrade or anything like that I had to the power off.

    I tried to restart, but now, it just on the screen stays black (the monitor is not powered, as if the system was not running), all LEDS are powered with flashing 'drive access', the led on the DVD Player keeps flashing making a noise every 3 seconds or more.

    I read on the forum that there may be no solution but to take it to an authorized service provider but I'm willing to take any possible solution before you do.

    Thanks for any advice.

    Alex.

    Hi, mate

    Unfortunately, you need to be reflash the Bios as something that went wrong during the update. You should contact the Asp and ask them to reflash. There is no other way to get your laptop to work.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite L350 - does not start after the BIOS update

    Hello

    I recently (yesterday) downloaded the latest version of bios update dated dated 25/02/10 2: 20 - WIN, after download and does run the software from the laptop immediately stopped working and stop. I am now no longer able to boot up the laptop at all, all I get is the power light on and the hard disk light flashes, I hear the spinning CD/DVD drive, but what is not screen anything, I don't think this is the start.

    Is there a way to fix this without taking it to a store/engineer, BIOS recovery?

    The laptop is a Satellite L350, I opened the laptop to try to reset the CMOS by removing the card mother battery (not sure if it would have helped), but as much as I know it doesn't have an or I'm not.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Andy

    Hi Andy,.

    Hmm... If the BIOS update failed, you can't do anything because only an authorized service provider has professional diagnostic and recovery tools to redo an update.

    So in my opinion, you must contact a service provider authorized in your country. Get in touch with the guy and ask for help. They will tell you what to do now.

    Here is their list:

  • Satellite A30 - does not start after the RAM to level

    even to get to the Toshiba start screen.

    The memory I installed is 1 GB, 200-pin SO-DIMM, 128 X 64, DDR 333, CL2.5, part number CT12864X335.

    took out and put back the old memory and the laptop boots
    normally and is OK, I even tried to put the memory in different

    This suggests that memory is faulty, as bought crucial memory must be compatible with my laptop?

    Thanks for your time,

    You have this problem if you use modules or only the new module?

    If you only use the new module, the case is clear. The new module is defective or is not compatible with the laptop.
    I think you should get back on the computer dealer and request a new. Maybe you can get a Kingston module because I have only good experience with this production.

    If you use both modules, they are not compatible. You should only use the modules with the same specifications.

  • Satellite A300 does not start after the installation of the anti-virus

    Hello

    I brought a Satellite A300 today and loaded it up and it was fine.
    I uninstalled the google toolbar, office and land it came preinstalled with also the mcafree anti virus.
    So I could install my own anti virus.

    After that the system asked me to restart my pc I did.
    Since then, the system cross the 'Please wait' screen
    But it won't let me boot into safe mode. I tried a system restore.

    Any ideas?

    Hello

    To me, it seems that you 3rd party antivirus software caused this strange and confusing problem the Vista OS installed.

    In my eyes a simply, new installation of operating system using the Toshiba Recovery disk would solve this problem.

    If you are able to start the operating system in safe mode and then try to remove your installed Antivirus software, then clean the registry and operating system using the free tool called CCLeaner and try to start the laptop again.

    Maybe it helps you too

  • Satellite A100 does not start after the BIOS update

    Hello

    I downloaded the update to the bios toshiba A100 PSAA8 on the toshiba site and applied using the procedure of updating the bios from windows XP MSE. Restart after the start of the update stopped at the toshiba start screen.

    At startup the screen by pressing ESC watch text mode. The message indicated it confirms the update of the bios version. POST messages are:

    _________________________
    Genuine Intel CPU
    No TPM or TPM has problem
    1015 M system RAM passed

    Press to enter in SETUP
    _________________________

    Pressing F2 just clears the last message in line and then no change is found.

    The laptop comes with windows XP media center edition. I don't know why the TPM secure is enabled. It is possible that toshiba is available with the module of TPM enabled in bios updates that logbook. If this is the case, they must clearly identified as 'not applicable' upgrade for machines that are not relevant.

    I found similar messages around the forum without convincing answer.

    Is it possible to fix this without sending? Even if it turns out to be affordable, it make much sense to pay for the problems caused by toshiba.

    Hello

    Please don t blame someone for you mistakes ;)
    As far as I know that only a few sets of laptops come with TPM.
    If you want to do an update of the BIOS on the models at TPM, you will need to contact the ASP!

    Looks like you used a bad BIOS or bad BIOS update procedure.

    The Toshiba page a BISO update the documentation that describes how to upgrade the BIOS on each series laptop!
    You will find on the page of the Toshiba driver compatible BIOS and information over a large number of details!

    > Is it possible to fix this without sending
    Don t think so, and therefore, you will need to contact the Asp help!

    Good luck
