  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite U400-10j.

  I have Ubuntu on my USB flash drive, now I want to boot from it.

  I can't find the option in the BIOS to boot from the Usb flash drive.

  Second, I noticed that the phone also has an internal memory card reader.

  Thank you.

  I think that it s not able to boot from a USB key on this laptop.
  The best way is to use a CD. There, you can start on this notebook and all other laptops.
  In the Internet there are many versions of CD of Ubuntu and other Linux systems.

  And as said Feliks, it s not able to boot from an SD card because it is not in the BIOS.

• Portege A100 PPA10A - update the BIOS to boot from a USB device

  Hello

  I have an old Portege A100, model: PPA10A-0002LP, but I can't seem to find this model on any Web site of Toshiba, closest I've seen is the "PPA10A - 0002 L'.

  I am wanting to know if there is a BIOS update that will allow me to boot from a USB device.

  The question I have is that I need to reinstall Windows, but the CD ROm cannot read disks.
  This network PXE boot, but I'm new to this sort of thing and have absolutely no idea what to do here.

  Any help would be great,

  Thank you

  Hello

  Portege A100 seems to be developed solely for the Australian market.
  As you say it is a model number Portege A100 PPA10A - 0002L listed on the Australian page of Toshiba Portege A100 PPA10A-0002LP belongs to the same series which is PPA10A
  So in my opinion, the BIOS should work too.

  Anyway, I doubt that the BIOS update will add boot options.

  Usually the BIOS supports booting from CD/DVD drive, drive HARD, LAN and USB FDD.
  It should be possible to boot from a boot disk using a USB FDD drive.
  I doubt you'd be able to boot from USB WEIRD since this Portege A100 supports an internal CD/DVD drive.

  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!

• Satellite Pro U400 - can I boot from a USB?

  I am wanting to partition the disk and I don't have a blank CD at hand...

  Surprised to discover, there is no option the BIOS to boot from devices USB 2.40.

  Please can someone confirm for me that this is not possible?

  Thank you.

  L.

  Yes, you can boot from USB FDD, primary HARD disk, optical device and network (LAN)
  Unfortunately, the USB is not supported ;(

  But if you want to create a new partition on the HARD drive you don't need to boot from a USB n.
  Are you using the Vista on your Satellite Pro U400?

  If so, you can use the Vista Disk Manager to create a new partition.
  To reduce the first partition first and then you can create a new partition using a new space on the HARD drive.

• How to boot from a USB - Portege R500 flash drive

  Hello

  I have a Portege R500 running Windows XP, presented about 2 years ago and recently contracted a virus that has infected some of the startup files as the minute I connect it disconnects again, even in SafeMode! The quickest way I can think sorting is to reformat with the XP Recovery disk and reinstall windows.

  Problem! The CD/DVD drive on the computer laptop stopped working earlier, tried almost everything in the thread on this site, but had no luck.

  So my plan was to boot from a USB flash drive and do it this way. However in the boot parameters I only have the options of HARD drive / floppy drive / CD-ROM / LAN, none of them work. Does anyone know how to boot from USB flash drives?

  Any help would be really appreciated

  Hello

  As far as I know, it should be possible to boot from USB FDD

  I don't know if you would be able to boot from a USB flash drive, but it of certainly worth a try m

  Generally, you can try to press the F12 key when the laptop is turned on.
  A start menu should appear on the screen, then you should see all bootable devices.

  PS: as far as I know the USB startup was available in ToshibaHWSetup (tool of Toshiba which changes the settings of the BIOS under windows OS.) So I guess boot from USB must be possible.

• Qosmio G20: Possible boot from a USB device?

  Dear all,

  I am writing for you good people was whether it is possible to start a Qosmio G20 via a connected USB device, an external hard drive.

  I wonder if it is taken in charge (or tolerable) within the limits of the current Qosmio G20 BIOS and/or if any could attempt on my part to make taken in charge (i.e. are there buttons I can push levers, I can pull or numbers I can play to get there).

  The reason why I have is that my laptop has a multitude of technical difficulties that point to the hardware failure, among them a vertical line on my screen and a problem with my optical drive, making it impossible for me to write a CD or DVD.

  In the unlikely event that the good folks at Toshiba support are forced to replace the hard drive (or the system) it would be nice to have a way to restore the system to its current configuration (in this sense, I'm looking for a way to create my own bootable recovery disc produced) however the lack of functionality in the Department of optical drive ties my hands a little (I can't create a recovery of) product custom CD/DVD but I might create a product on my external HARD drive recovery partition).

  Thus, it would be useful to be able to boot from a USB, not essential of course as any disk image could be comfortably written to disk through my soon-to-be renovated system (of course it would be quicker to start just by the USB bus and avoid all this nonsense).

  Sincere greetings,
  Lee Hyde.

  Hello

  I am sorry to say that you will not be able to boot from the external USB HDD. The BIOS does not support this feature.
  According to different threads here in the support of forum Toshiba Qosmio G20 BIOS supports these devices to start:
  Floppy USB drive, 1st/2nd HDD, ODD, network (LAN)

  As you can see it s possible to floppy USB FDD but not the USB external HDD

• Satellite 1800-804: how to change the standard screen?

  Hello. I'd be very grateful if someone out there could help me. I have a 1800-804 Satellite which I removed the screen and instead connected to a screen size of Compaq and it works very well for the last 12 months so much so that I use it as my main office.

  My problem started when I downloaded a movie and I wanted to watch it on my tv. I went in the set up screen and it goes from 1 to 2 (because told me in this way that would turn screen to the TV screen).
  It was my mistake.

  Now I can't get it reversed back to the normal screen. The on-screen display, it's as if it is in ECONOMY MODE (large icons) that can only make?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Which screen has low resolution? The external monitor or laptop screen?
  I guess you display resolution has been set to the lowest value.
  The resolve you should go in the graphic properties and select the view then increase the screen area and colors.

  Also check the advanced option. In the peripheral view tab, you will find the different options and device monitoring multi section where you can set the parameters on screen LCD/CRT or LCD/TV

  Check it out.

  How you configure boot on A500-o25 order, so that it starts from USB first.

  Hello

  Enter the Bios by pressing F2 at startup, go to the start menu and choose the USB drive as first boot device (you navigate with the F5 and F6 keys). Press F10, and... Save and exit menu, is displayed, press ok. That's all.

  Note, I have my satellite A500 connect the computer before turning on Usb flash, otherwise the usb flash drive does not appear in the boot menu in Bios

• Satellite L40-139 can boot from a USB device?

  Hello

  I have a new L40-139. Looking through the BIOS I can't find an option to boot from a device USB like a USB HDD or USB flash drive. Could someone confirm if the L40-139 can boot from USB and is thus the configuration of the BIOS for this.

  If she can not someone knows if there are plans for a BIOS update that would allow this?

  I must admit that, although I love the L40, I am disappointed how to limit the BIOS is.

  Thank you

• How to boot from simulated USB (flash drive) mass storage device?

  I do some development work on the anaconda, the Installer used by Red Hat Enterprise Linux and reconstructions based off of him.  I'm testing support of USB flash drive facilities and would rather test my changes using image files from a USB drive physical - a bit like editing an .iso image to a CD instead of using a physical CD of closure.

  I found a reference to the Framework of Linux-USB Gadget API, which looked exactly like what I was looking for.  After the reconstruction of the almond, I was able to run:

  • modprobe dummy_hcd
  • modprobe g_file_storage file = CentOS - 6.2 - i386 - netinstall.iso

  After that, the office immediately get the image as if I had actually plugged a USB stick with the same content.

  I am also able to connect this virtual USB device to a virtual machine, but when I start the virtual machine, it has no option to boot from the virtual USB device.

  Any ideas?

  VMware Workstation does not directly support boot from USB but you can use a third-party utility called Plop Boot Manager to boot a bootable USB disk and you may be.

• Satellite M40 - 244--> Boot from a USB

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite m40-244 with a DVD player which unfortunately is out of service.

  I would like to know if it is possible to boot from a USB key to reinstall Windows or Linux. In the BIOS there only HDD, floppy, CD-ROM, and LAN drive options.

  Does anyone know how to boot from a USB? I tried an external USB DVD drive, it does not work. I don't know if I'm doing the right way.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  As far as I know that of not possible because the M40 BIOS does not support this!
  As you mentioned in your ad; There is only one option for booting from the HARD drive, ODD, LAN and USB FDD (floppy)

• How to get the computer to boot from a USB?

  I use offline windows Defender. Start the computer to the USB you need. How can I get the computer set up to do this?

  Thanks for any help

  Hello

  We will determine if your PC can not even boot from USB devices.  Plug the USB and turn on your PC.  When you get to the HP splash screen, then start typing the escape key to bring up a boot selection menu. If you do not see the USB device then your PC can't boot from a USB device.

  If your PC does support booting from a USB device and then read this MS post article.

  You always have the option to start Windows Defender from a CD or a DVD.
