Re: Satellite L555 11 L: BIOS indicates the drive HARD is not installed, BOOT Manager said HDD

Hello!

I had problems with my Toshiba laptop.

When I tried to boot my system after a regular stop it does not recognize the HARD drive more.
BIOS indicates the drive HARD is not installed, the said BOOT Disk Manager failed.

Tried the HARD drive to a desktop computer and it works fine. This is not a new HDD SATA is recognized.
However, the boot sequence itself and other functions seem to be ok.

Who is wrong?
The laptop is 1.5 years old and didn't have any problems before.

Any help is appreciated ;)

Hello

It seems that the HARD drive is damaged.
In your case the drive HARD test would be recommended.

Download the software called Drive Fitness Test. It the free tool that can be used for the test of HARD drive.
If the HARD drive is not detected or you will get errors, then it means that you HARD drive needs to be replaced and OS need to be installed again.

  • Satellite P500 - after update BIOS on the numeric keypad does not work anymore

    I just had a Satellite P500 and am running Windows 7. I downloaded all the latest drivers and updated the system BIOS to version 1.70 (from Toshiba support website). Now, my numeric keypad of the keyboard does not work.

    The NumLock light is on and when I hit the key "6" on the pavement, he turns the power light, but the behavior of the other keys does not change that it is on or off. The '-' key to enter a '6', but none of the other keys (except "enter" does nothing.

    I removed the keyboard driver and rebooted to reinstall the keyboard driver, but has no effect. The keyboard has worked for a few days after that I flashed the bios but seems to have stopped since I started using a USB mouse. I tried to uninstall the USB mouse driver, but who have nothing do either (it was a Logitech driver).

    Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance

  • Satellite M40: message: can not play because the DVD decoder is not installed

    not serious... I am back... I did a little reading and tried to read another cd in the drive and the message came to say "can't play because the dvd decoder is not installed, so I guess that's the problem because I have a recovery * DVD *.» Anyone know where I can find a dvd for a Satellite M40 decoder?

    > can't play because the dvd decoder is not installed
    This message appears if you want to play DVD movies with an application like Windows Media Player that has no (plug-in) installed DVD decoder.
    Usually the DVD can be played with special programs like WinDVD or PowerDVD for example!

    But this DVD decoder has nothing to do with the Toshiba Recovery DVD and the fact your new DVD Player cannot read the recovery DVDs.

  • Satellite L670D - issue of recovery on the new HARD drive

    Hi all.

    I actually sent this support Toshiba has a few days ago, but still have received no response and thought I would try this forum.

    That's the problem; the hard drive of my laptop is a failure, I had warnings to create a backup and replace the drive hard as soon as possible. I have done this and have mounted with success the computer with a new brand Hitachi 500 GB hard drive, with no problems.

    Then, I entered the program installation and makes the dvd the first boot drive. The first disc of recovery in the drive and it starts perfectly and started the process. I then went through the recovery procedure with the DVD 3 x on my computer, it seemed to work flawlessly, and after inserting all 3 disks in the order as requested, I was instructed to remove the final support.

    I have reset the boot hard drive and windows started normally until I got to this point. "the installation program starts services. Then comes a pop-up window saying; "windows could not complete the installation, to install windows on installation, this restart of the computer.

    Of course I tried to start in a few other ways to the f8 advanced boot options, but he always does this same thing.

    I can't imagine what the problem is that everything seems to go well until this?

    Hope you can help me solve this problem.
    Thank you

    Hello

    Only thing I would say is that you need to install recovery image again. Please try it out and post comments.
    It will be interesting to know if the same thing will happen again.

  • "The drive where windows is installed is locked. Unlock the drive, and then try again. »

    Have a laptop Envy M6-K010DX. Due to a problem of the internet while improving to win 8 to 8.1, the PC does not start correctly, and Windows Explorer will not load. Has decided to "Refresh" of the operating system and is gone to F11 restore utilities. When I go to the utility of refreshment and follow the prompts that I reach a message that says, 'the drive where windows is installed is locked. Unlock the drive, and then try again. "I was looking for support for the unlocking instructions and apart from some commands bootrec (which did not work - probably because I don't have a Win 8 disc) not much is available.

    The only access I have for execution of orders made by the tasks Manager command-line and F11. What is this 'locked' drive, anyway? Someone at - it any information on that?

    Hello Lara.

    IF you have updated from 8 to 8.1 and the process was interrupted during installation, this may damage the disc and therefore locked error. "Refreshing" the system would not be the answer that you need to clean install Windows 8 again. 8.1 update can break the bond of the recovery partition, especially if it has become corrupted as indicated.

    You must clean up the installation with the recovery discs, you must have created before you updated to 8.1.

    In addition, if you do not have the recovery disks, you can buy a set of HP or install a regular copy of Windows 8 and then update the drivers manually. HP has the Windows key now integrated into the bios.

  • IS does not recognize the drive HARD internal

    I have three, all from a school lab, that have been linked with other positive points and printers.

    They are connected are not together anymore.

    All three have a floppy drive and a HARD drive. Will only boot from the HARD drive.

    At startup, the other two do not recognize their HARD drive and I use ea disk with the system in this regard.

    Since hard drives are not 'seen' I am unable to do anything with them: fix, set up as a boot drive, etc.

    They begin with the usual chimes and the Mac with the question mark, I slip the disk in and they complete commissioning.

    The internal drive spin up and the indicator light flashes.

    They do not show the drive HARD internal on the screen, but will show an external.

    I haven't started to swap parts between the good and the other two.

    Does anyone have an idea on how to activate an invisible HARD drive?

    You will need to use the boot floppy disks to start the machines to run the repair disk, partition and format the HARD drive if it is still functional. Only then can you install Mac OS on the HARD drive. That's all that I remember.

    Original title: Microsoft Management Console this feature only is not supported on this system

    I am running Vista 32 bit Business since an administrator account.

    Recently, I noticed that the automatic updates did not install it and returned error 80070005.   After investigation, I found that I could not open mmc at all and always get the message "this function no is not supported on this system.  No major changes have been made to the configuration to trigger it and I can't watch the event log because it is in the MMC.
    I have studied this question in line and tool the following actions, which none worked:
    carried out a complete antivirus scan (I use Commodo internet security)
    created another account administrator
    has run SFC (no problem)
    has run the registry cleaner (no problem)
    has run msconfig.exe and disabled all the startup process
    updated windows right click and run as administrator
    Started in safe mode and tried all above

    Hello Helpmehelpme,

    First, I would check since it is professional Vista was that computer on a field of work or it was already on an area of work? There may be group policies that are in place that prevent to run MMC.
