Satellite 4000CDS has no BIOS!

Hello!
My laptop is a Satellite 4000CDS and I wanted to install windows again. But when I put the CD and restart the computer, nothing happens. There is even no screen that says I have to press a key to enter the BIOS, so I can't set the boot priority to boot from cd. How can I manage it?

Hello

When the unit starts immediately press ESC and keep it down.

  • Satellite C55 - Has - 1 L 0 does not start in Windows 8

    Hey guys.
    I hope you can help me a bit.
    I have a Toshiba Satellite C55 - has - 1 L 0 here and it does not start in Windows 8.

    I turn it on, the Toshiba start screen appears, and then I get a message on a black screen saying "media control" (failure) and after a little while "no boot device. Please restart.

    I checked the BiOS and it does not see the hard drive (said HARD drive - no) and even in the boot order list, I don't get a list with the DVD drive with the exact name, but for the HARD drive.
    I tried to do a recocery with the F12 key and get the list to choosw where I want to start but by selecting the disk hard does not work.

    So I thought I'd try a live distribution of linux to see where is my hard drive and back up my data (after some settings in the BIOS - boot CMS mode) but I can't find there too. (I have a file fstab and mtab, it would help if I posted it here?)
    Is my HARD drive broken? Can I try something else?

    Thank you very much!

    You are right. This issue should be fixed by the authorized service provider.
    Furthermore, why do some risk steps to check this problem, if the warranty is valid.
    Warranty will cover the repair costs.

    Addresses and phone numbers, you can find on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/generic/ASP_SUPPORT/

  • Satellite 4000CDS startup password

    Hello
    I have an old Toshiba Satellite 4000CDS that is similair to the version of CDT, I think that apart from the LCD screen.
    But a startup password, when I turn on there, i get the screen "in touch with tomorrow Toshiba", just after a black screen with: password =: _.
    Well, I had this problem once with a Toshiba Satellite Pro 440CDT, so I did exactly the same to remove it.
    I have taken apart and removed the two batteries of RTC. I also took the main battery, and I left it for a day or 2.
    But now when I put the laptop back together (without the batteries of the RTC and the main battery), he always asks me a password.

    Is there anyway to fix this? I like to work with old Toshiba laptops.

    Thanks in advance,

    and sorry for my badEnglish ;)

    Kind regards
    Gilian

    Hello

    The Toshiba notebook's BIOS password is NOT removed if you remove the battery from the RTC.
    This works for desktop PC's but not for laptops.

    Only the Toshiba ASP can remove BIOS password.
    You have to get in touch with the guys to delete!

    Good luck

  • Satellite M200 - has internal Bluetooth?

    I have a serial number of System Satellite M200 PSMC3A-06N008: 18139050Q with motherboard Intel Corporation SANTA ROSA CRB BIOS: Phoenix Technologies LTD 1.90 20/12/2007
    The user guide says it must be installed on the motherboard by Bluetooth, but when I try to install the "battery Bluetooth for Windows by Toshiba" I am asked to install the Bluetooth device.
    Review of the Device Manager does not show Bluetooth devices, so my question is...

    The PSMC3A-06N008 Satellite M200 has the Bluetooth chipset on the motherboard?

    If so, it would look like mine is defective.

    Hey Buddy,

    It's not easy to say because it depends on your model of laptop and there are different models with different features on the market.
    I tried to check the specifications on the Australian site, but no results were found for your model :(

    Normally if your laptop is equipped with BT, you should find the [logo Bluetooth | http://www.thebikerstore.co.uk/product_images/n/033/Bluetooth_logo__70711_zoom.jpg] on the lower side of your laptop.
    Can see you?

  • Satellite C55 - Has - after update BIOS fan turns faster

    Hello

    I have been informed by Toshiba application this new version of the BIOS is available, I confirmed BIOS and it has been updated. Now I have the problem. Cooling fan runs faster than before and it is very annoying.
    Find old versions of BIOS somewhere and roll back? I didn't need it if it does not work properly.

    Now I have version 1.40. Y at - it a solution for this new version?

    Driver Toshiba UE page provides only the latest version of the BIOS.
    In addition, the BIOS downgrade isn't possible using the update to the BIOS of win-bases.
    To downgrade the BIOS Toshiba unit, you will need to use the traditional method of updating the BIOS that requires a special version of BIOS. It is available only for the authorized service provider.

    On the other hand, it must be a good reason, why the cooling module run faster.
    Perhaps that the cooling method has been improved again BIOS just to make sure that the internal parts would be properly cooled.

    It s just a guess but I think it makes sense

    By the way: after each update of the BIOS, you must load the BIOS default settings and should save the changes. If you haven t done this in the past, it doesn't

  • Has no BIOS on Satellite L850

    Hello world!

    I have a L850 (PSKG8A-05J001) who stopped booting after the latest bios updated from the Toshiba Web site.
    To fix the problem, I ordered a Taiwan flashed bios, but they had used the same bios version and the screen remained black.

    So I asked them to send me a bios with older firmware, and they did.
    After soldering the bios of the motherboard, the laptop starts but has no windows startup.

    Consulted the bios with F2, changed some settings, loaded optimal settings and changed some settings more and I after that 4 to 5 times the screen is now permanently black...

    I tried out the battery and the battery of the bios & leaving overnight, turning it with all the different key combinations, never leaving the RAM, clean the contacts of the ram, startup wincrisis with usb flashdrive... no luck.

    If someone could help me get this laptop works again, would be much appreciated.
    Thank you!

    See you soon,.

    According to the last message, you have tried different ways to correct the problem but remove BIOS battery isn't the best way to get it fixed.

    Usually if the BIOS update broken, the EPROM module must be fixed using the crisis disk BIOS and this must be done by the professional engineer.

    Sometimes 3rd party crisis disk could help you address these issues, but it also depends on the BIOS version.

  • Update BIOS on the Satellite L50 - has PSKK8V

    I have _Satellite L50 - A PSKK8V_ with Win8.1 and BIOS version 1.7
    I saw that there is a new version of the bios (1.9) and downloaded... but when I try to install it it says

    '* Current BIOS does not support this version program. "Please use the other outlines."

    can someone help me please!
    and thanks in advance :)

    BIOS has no significant influence on the speed and performance of the laptop.
    Simply said: after updating the BIOS, the laptop will not work faster!

    With regard to the update of the BIOS:
    You had to update and install also the Toshiba Software and tools available to win 8.1.
    You update all software?

    The missing parts of the software as driver of Toshiba system would affect the BIOS update procedure!

  • Satellite A100 has a black screen and will not charge in the Bios

    I bought a Satellite A100 - (model psaa8c-0fh00e) about 5 months ago. It was left overnight, which is not uncommon, and when I came back using about 15 hours later it was just a black screen. moved from the touch screen and keys, and nothing did. so I cold it starts and he died. I then turned it back as usual and the laptop turns on but the screen is completely black. It's not loading the normal Toshiba Bios screen.

    Now my question: If there is any way I can solve this, I am familiar with computers and parts. I don't get this cause I've ever had to reflash the wood or something like that. I am unsure of how to activate and I really want to have to take it to a shop, any suggestions would be helpful.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Conrad,.

    If your 100 starts normally (spinning HARD drive, optical drive LED flashes, fans turn etc.) then I suppose that your FL inverter or LCD screen is not. You can check this by connecting an external monitor to the laptop to see if it shows the normal display.

    On the other hand if there is no activity at all portable computer turn when you turn it on then I guess you have an internal hardware failure, possibly the main card, which must be checked by a Service partner authorized Toshiba since the unit is still under warranty if it is only 5 months old.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite P70 - Has BIOS reflash / Wireless NIC drivers

    Hello

    I currently have a few problems.

    The first is that I can't get into the BIOS. To give you the full story, that I recently lowered the mark 8.1 for Windows Windows 7 and I've updated the BIOS in the process (v1.50). The system is usable, but when I restart and try and get into the BIOS I just get what looks like a line that is corrupted by the middle of the image and it just stays there.

    I tried to re - flash but with the BIOS being the same version it does not.

    Also I can't seem to find the wireless drivers - I've tried Realtek, Intel and the Atheros ones and none works. It could be related to the issue of BIOS, but I'm not sure.

    Any ideas on how to get either in the BIOS or the fixed wireless?

    Ta!

    > Also, I can't find the wireless drivers - I've tried Realtek, Intel and the Atheros ones and none works. It could be related to the issue of BIOS, but I'm not sure.

    You should go to Device Manager and should expand the area of network controller.
    If the WLan driver has not been installed, you should see an unknown device or Ethernet card marked with yellow exclamation point.

    To get information on the WLan module built in Notepad, you should check the PROVIDER and the DEVICE ID.
    With the help of the miniPCI database shouldn't be a big problem to get the driver for this add-on.

    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD0302U00000R01.htm

    With regard to the BIOS:
    I can't imagine that there is something wrong with the BIOS. In the event that the BIOS update procedure would fail, the laptop would not be usable.

    However, BIOS problems are still serious issues and a downgrade of the BIOS can be done by the partner of service only.

  • Satellite L40 - 1.90 bios update has no effect on the reboot of Vista except

    Hello

    We have a laptop L40 and very happy with it. There BIOS 1.60 and I want to update to 1.90. 32 - Vista Home Basic has been installed by default. He now has SP1.

    When I unzip the package and run the bat file (that start with binary winflash), the 'dos' window opens and stays there for a while. Nothing happens and then the window closes and the system is restarted.

    When I run just winflash, nothing happens. There is no dialogue or any other message.

    How is - a is updating the bios on the L40 - 14Y (PSL48E)?

    THX!

    DickS

    Hello

    I'm really surprised, why you start the file beats if there is no exe file. Unzip all of the files on the desktop to the laptop and open the winflash.exe file, follow the instructions on the screen.
    Make sure that the laptop is connected to the power supply current and NOT to interrupt by running the update of the BIOS.
