Satellite 5005-S507 unbootable

Hello world.

Satellite 5005-S507, all the time it worked correctly, but once I started from a LiveCD and cleaned all the stuff on the HARD drive (just moved from the root dir to "backup" folder). After that, I stopped him.

Now, when I press the power button, the (i) light on the front comes on, but nothing happens! I mean the screen is black and nothing happens. As I once again and keep it pressed, the led turns off.

Can anyone help?

You know, you started just a LiveCD? Maybe something happened around your machine, which you acknowledged didn t. (Maybe some foreigners?  ;))

But here's a small approach to solution: remove your hard drive and the power of your machine. In case of failure, that maybe the RAM may be defective.
How many RAM Modules you have?

Welcome them

  • How to replace the CD/DVD in Satellite 5005-S507 drive

    My cd is defective, I got a new but I maintenance manual have'nt.

    Could you gave me the process to replace this drive?

    Thanks by avdvance

    Hello

    The replacement of CD/DVD is not really difficult.
    The STRANGE is fixed with a screw hidden under the keyboard.

    To remove the keyboard you have to remove the thin plastic which is placed above the line of F1 to F12 key. You will then see the screws securing the keyboard.

    Remove the screws to lift to the top of the keyboard.
    Now, on the left, you will find a screw that holds the ODD.
    Remove this screw and now you should be able to move the disc.

    But attention ;)

  • Satellite P25-S507 - HARD drive replacement

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite P25-S507, which more is under warranty and has begun to report S.M.A.R.T. errors.

    SmartMonitor reports a lot of questions especially marked as old age so I need to replace the disk. I was wondering if I can replace it with any standard 2.5 "ATA as an ATA-100 player. as the disk of 60 GB specification is ATA - 5.

    Any help appreciated.

    Maybe no one has replaced the HARD drive on this laptop because it s Autric series and is a European forum of Toshiba, and most of us have European workbooks

    But the P25 is very similar to the P20 series.
    The P20 supports an improved IDE (ATA-5) interface.

    Then you should be able to use IDE hard drives.

    If you want to use a faster disk (ATA-6 or later), then possibly the controller would have only allows the performance of ATA-5;
    ATA - 5 = Ultra DMA 66 = 4, = 6 MB/s UDMA-66 ;)

  • Satellite 5005-S504 - peripheral USB are not recognized

    Hello

    with my laptop older, one Satellite 5005-S504, I recently problems with the USB ports. None of the three ports detects a USB device. Device Manager does not indicate a problem on the host controller or root hub.

    I am running Windows XP, SP3 and there was no recent updates to be identified as the cause of this dysfunction.

    Suspicion over there?
    Is there a driver available that could help?

    Thanks in advance!

    TH

    Hello

    The USB ports are listed in the Device Manager or not?
    If so, I'll try to remove them and restart the laptop. After that the ports will automatically install again.

    If it doesn't work, you can try updating the chipset driver. Take a look on the Web from Toshiba site to download.

  • Satellite 5005-S504, error of bad Machine.

    Hello

    I have a laptop of Satellite 5005-S504. I try to run the recovery and the Configuration Builder CD that came with the computer you. Only, I get the error of 'machine wrongly' on the screen.

    I must say that I had to change the CD player, because the original was damaged. The original CD player was a Matsu * a UJDA710 DVD/CD-RW combo. I replaced by a Matsu * a UJDA750 combo DVD/CD-RW drive.

    Someone tell me something about the string "DMI", but I don't know what is and how to set it up to do the recovery work CD.

    I thank you.

    Hi danielgaspar76,

    It seems that the recovery CD can not initialize the motherboard of your laptop (String DMI) information.
    If this failure Message is displayed. It does not depend on the player you're using.
    So for the time being, you have no other solution to find your laptop. First of all, at need to contact Toshiba Service partner who wrote the correct information on your motherboard.
    After that, you can use your recovery again cd without problem.

    Good bye

    Maybe is exchanged mainboard?

    There you can find description and DMI tool how to use it. After using this tool, the motherboard will have good information.

If these two pieces of information are the same, you will be able to install the recovery image.

    Then plug the power adapter into the laptop, PC IN lamps is green (means the adapter sector seem to be OK).

    What's wrong?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hey,.

    It looks like a hardware issue to me. You should try to remove the battery and the AC adapter. Wait an hour and after that connect the two devices again. Try restarting the laptop and hope that it will work! ;)

    If this isn't the case it seems to be a hardware malfunction, maybe the motherboard needs to be replaced. I put t know if you want to spend the money for this oldie, but on eBay, you can get second hand parts maybe they are cheaper or you buy a new laptop.

  • Need info on updating graphics card for Satellite P25 s507

    Can someone give me a list of a toshiba satellite p25 s-507-compatible graphics cards? for example, is a "nvidia geforce 6800 go" ultra compatible?
    10 x a lot

    I guess you want to know which graphics cards are compatible, because you want to upgrade the graphics card. Am I wrong?
    As you probably know, mobile technology is not the same as the desktop PC simply and it s is not possible to replace or change the graphics card.

    Especially chips are set on the map and it of not possible to improve it. Also the BIOS, chipset utilities and other application would not accept the new graphics card.

  • Re: Satellite P200-13F unbootable

    Dear Sir

    I have a Satellite P200-13F that no longer starts.

    When I push the Start button that drive hard blinks several times, the cpu fan turns for a few seconds and the dvd drive light stays on.

    Screen remains blank and that's it.

    Anyone who has had the same problem.

    Hello

    It looks like a hardware problem
    Have you tried using different RAM modules?

    I put t know how RM module are in your P200, but if there are two modules, then you can try to boot the machine using that one module

    A few months ago my girlfriend s notebook developed the similar question
    I ve replaced the RAM and Notepad starts again.

    But please don t understand me wrong. I put t say that this question is related to the faulty RAM memory, I think it could be a RAM, and if you want you could test it 100%.
    But in my opinion if you n t want to waste money for some RAM modules without knowing exactly what's wrong then you should ask a technician for laptop for a control.

    After these checks, you'd know what part is affected.

    Hello

    I put t understand why you have disassembled this laptop if you have no experience with this fault diagnostic.

    Believe me; usually it of not possible to provide a diagnosis exactly. For me, it looks like a motherboard failure, perhaps also the lack of CPU operation but who knows!

    Without a laptop, check it s not easy to say what's wrong. So I think that you will need to contact the ASP in your country for assistance.
