• Portege R600: Insert the system diskette in the drive. Press any key when ready

  I just bought a new hard drive for my R600, but after placing it I get the error:
  * Insert system disk in drive. Press a key when ready.*
  When you try to boot from it.

  In the FAQ, I think this means that the HARD drive is broken or undetectable. * However, this is not the case *, it is fresh from the store and perfectly readable with a live CD. I tried to reinstall windows, and which went perfectly, its only when it's startup time this nasty error.

  What should I do? My new SSD is an OCZ Core V2.

  To install Windows, you need the SATA drivers.
  You can set the SATA to IDE mode as Akuma said but I find that it is not a good solution. In IDE mode, you will have lost a little performance and the AHCI is faster.

  If you need to download the SATA drivers. The driver, you can find on the Web from Toshiba called Storage Manager site.
  Download the drivers and press on after having started from the CD F6 to load. For that you need an external floppy drive and if you n t have one that you can build your own installation with nLite disc.

  Hello

  If this is a new laptop, chances are that there is no available for this purpose XP driver to make it work correctly with XP.

  Web site of the manufacturer of the laptop computer to check for the XP drivers for your laptop model.

• Satellite 1800-911: error #1 - C2502 CD/DVD drive IDE

  PC: satellite 1800-911 BIOS V.2.1.

  I try to fix the problem with my DVD/CD COMBO drive (all of a sudden do not read any kind of CD).
  I tried to update the firmware from 1313 to... I don't remember. I get now, before XP pro SP2 start, the "IDE #1 ERROR" message and the operating system do not recognize any DVD/CD.

  BIOS recognize, ligth blinks and you can use the eject button. When XP is from that of the ligth is disabled and the eject button do not work.

  Now, if I try to go back to firmware 1313 (from boot floppy BACK) I get an error TYPE ROM INCORRECT.
  Can I fix this?

  > BIOS recognizes, the light will blink and you can use the eject button
  That means nothing!

  If the IDE 1 error message # appears it means that the BIOS does not recognize the device (CD/DVD drive) that is connected to the IDE 1 controller.

  I think that you used just a bad firmware and flashed settings preinstalled with the wrong firmware!
  Now the master\slave\c-salt settings have been changed and the BIOS cannot access to ODD.

  I don t know where did you get the firmware, but in my opinion this firmware is certainly false and not supported!

  I found this drive here on the Toshiba page but the firmware is missing

  This message occurs when your hard disk is not recognized. The problem is all of a sudden upward?

  There are several possibilities:
  a: the boot sector of your hard drive is damaged, it can be solved by Re-partitioning (FDISK) and re-formatting the HD
  b: your hard drive is faulty
  c: your IDE controller is defective

  If possible, you could go out the HD and try to read it in a USB - 2, 5 "hd - case

• Tecra A2 (02R002) PTA20A Insert System Disk

  I recently got one of these laptops given by a friend who has updated, and since reformatting the entire HARD drive, whenever I start, it flashes to the toshiba start screen and then "insert system disk in drive and press any key when ready" now, I tried to insert a windows xp home disc and also a live ubuntu disc , and he does not choose one of them. Am I missing some special system of toshiba drive?

  No, you're not missing something special. I can explain why he doesn't like by you:

  you´ve formatted the hard drive and the bootsequence is not set that starts the CD drive before the hard drive. So I suggest, if you have a winxp or a live ubuntu disc, then press simply F12 or 'c' and it should start up.

  Hello

  Is it possible that the HARD disk is not recognized correctly?

• Portege R200 - PXE - E61: media test failure - insert system disk

  My Portege R200 PPR21E-00K00QEN computer means the usual stuff of toshiba: IE

  PXE - E61: media test failure, check cable of
  PXE - MOF outgoing PXE ROM

  Insert system disk in drive

  Now my model isn't a hard drive and I bought second hand, so I have no recovery disks.
  I checked the HARD drive and its seems connected properly.

  Would I need to buy an external drive and try a system disk or is there anything else I could try.

  Any suggestions or advice?

  PXE - E61: media test failure, check cable message appears because the laptop has attempted to boot from LAN.
  Why?
  Because it could not start the HARD drive, or another source like CD/DVD drive.
  Usually this happens because of faulty HARD drive.

  So how to fix?

  I think first of all you will need to replace the HARD drive.

  Since the Portégé R200 doesn't support CD/DVD drive, you must install the system using bootable flash USB stick memory or you would need to buy an external CD-ROM USB drive that would be compatible with protégé R200

  Hi papajoes,

  You did it all change hardware or software on your machine before this problem?

  This problem may occur if your boot device (for example, a floppy drive, hard drive or CD-ROM drive) does not contain startup files.

  You can follow this link & check if you are able to start correctly on the desktop.

  Hello

  For me the description sounds like the laptop can not find an OS on the HARD disk bootable.
  The laptop trying to boot from the HARD drive and Windows has not been installed on the HARD disk or portable computer booting from the drive, but the environment is not bootable.

  Have you tried to boot from the recovery delivered CD or have you tried to reinstall the operating system?

  Hello

  I have a satellite 2450-201 my hard drive failed and I bought a new one.
  I went to do the installation of the OS that worked very well and cancelled before that I had to commit that I had to get out.

  Tried again and it wouldn't boot from the CD it kepps showing the insert system disk and press a key.
  I have attached my external, a drive with a boot in drive but no difference what I am doing wrong?

  Mark has soon

  Looks like you can't boot from the CD.
  The message insert system disk and press any key any appears because the laptop can not find any operating system and bootable CD.

  Try to insert an original Windows CD and try to press F12 immediately after that laptop was on the F12 key should activate the start on-screen menu.

  Check it!

  Hello

  You can view these methods:

  Method 1: As a first step, check to see if the hard disk becomes detected or listed in the Basic Input/Output system (BIOS). Also, be sure to change the boot order in the CMOS settings so that thehard drive is the first on the list.

  Note: To learn how, see the documentation provided with your computer or contact the manufacturer of your computer.

  Note: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from configuration can resolved BIOS/CMOS settings. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  Method 2: If the manufacturer has installed the Recovery Console on your computer, perform the check disk to fix this.

  At the recovery console command line, type:

  Chkdsk /r

  When you restart your system, your computer will be scanned for errors and will try to correct them.

  Note: Running chkdsk on the drive if bad sectors are found on the disk hard when chkdsk attempts to repair this area if all available on which data can be lost.
