• Satellite A100 beeps at startup and goes straight to the mode without boot failure

  When I turn on my A100 there is a beep and I'll striaght on-screen 'safe start mode.
  I can then load normally in windows XP and everything is OK. Is something missing?

  The computer is less than two years.

  See you soon

  Hello

  > 'safe start mode.
  Do you mean that your Windows operating system starts only in safe mode?

  If yes then it might be something wrong with the system files or the registry.
  How do you reinstall the operating system on your laptop? Is it 2 years ago?
  Eventually it s time for a new OS update?  :|

  If you the problem is only with the software, then a new recovery would solve the problem.

  Good luck my friend

• Satellite P20 - beeps at startup after cleaning the keyboard

  Hey!

  I have a Satellite P20, which is strange. I have cleaned the keyboard (deleted, took apart and cleaned all the keys) but when I boot up to now (I have connected the keyboard) it will * beep beep * beep beep beep beep * on me (sounds like one of those things in the hospital). If I wait for some time, it ends by starts XP but then some keys (5%) did not respond (S and arrow down to name a few).

  I tried to start with the keyboard disconnected and that works like a charm.

  Then it is the keyboard that is defective? (I'd rather not buy a new one just to have the same problem) or is it keyboard connector or hurt (I have unplug and connected the keyboard several times)

  I am very grateful for any help or advice I can get.

  Best regards

  / Martin

  It is strange, but maybe the keyboard is defective, as you say.
  Or you don t have the keyboard connected to mainboad correctly. Check again.

  Maybe a key is always pushed and get the beeps. Select this check box.

• Satellite A100 - BSOD on startup and often refuses to load windows.

  Hello

  I've had my laptop A100 little over 3 years now and there is a moment he began to stop loading when I lit. He would often be an opportunity "the window loading" icon and then stay there indefinitely. Then he began to spotaneously telling me that I had a blue error screen and restart the whole process.
  Sometimes it lights fine.

  The battery is no longer in charge right now that when I plug in my laptop it trying to load (but it remains at 0%). The computer will work without batteries.
  I think (or maybe just imagine) that if I wait until the orange light for the batteries to charge turns off until I turn on my laptop it tends to start the first time.
  Can someone tell me what is the problem with my laptop and if there is anything I can do about it?

  Thank you
  Jen.

  Hi Jen,

  There are many reasons that can cause this kind of behavior...
  -Make sure that the hard drive is free of errors
  -check if the battery is ok (check the duration)
  -load for 24 hours
  -check the memory (ramtest)
  in many cases the hard disk has errors, bad would be a damaged mainboard...
  but without checking the components, you will not be able to determine the "real"...

  ask a help servicepartner

  perhaps only the battery is bad...
  start the laptop without battery and watch if failures happen again.

• Satellite 4030cds beeps at startup (POSTAL codes)

  Hi someone at - it a list of postcodes... I think I have

  What sese.
  Thank you.

  Hello John

  Unfortunately there is no public document on this subject. If you are not able to start the machine, or even enter the BIOS settings there are some malfunction of the equipment. The unit must be checked by a technician who can read the codes and locate a failed hardware component.

• Equium A100-306 beeps at startup

  Hello

  I have an A100-306 which, at startup, beeps for about 30 seconds, then starts up fine and then works perfectly, if I look at the laptop all the ram is recognized and the CPU seems very well, there is no display problem, the only thing that doesn't work is the CD drive doesn t recognize disks but the drive shows on the laptop , but if I remove the CD drive still beeps on startup anyway.

  Any ideas anyone?

  Hello

  The beep code during POST (power on self-test) means that an error has been detected on the motherboard.
  But it of really difficult to say what could be the problem here, you said RAM is recognized correctly hmm try to remove a RAM module and start Notepad using RAM only one in each slot

  All devices are connected to the laptop? If so, unplug everything (all devices) and try again.

• Satellite A100-332 always displays the same message at startup

  HI - get the message "press F2 for system utilities or press F12 for the boot' at the start of my Satellite A100-332. I can press F2 but it'll constantly 'Please wait '.
  F12 does nothing. So I'm stuck!

  I read the various threads suggesting place, remove the battery, reinstall the battery, but which does nothing no more. To be fair that the battery had fallen about 20 min charge now before this problem appeared, but there is definitely power with the power supply connected.

  Anyone able to help me with this?

  Thank you very much

  Richard

  Can press you F8 at start up just to see if you can enter advanced startup options?

• Keyboard and beep on startup with Satellite A80 problem

  Hello h,.

  I suggest you to bring your machine to a local service partner, or at least by a technician who is familiar with toshiba laptops, because your question looks quite related to the material.
  Someone pour some liquids above? I had the same problem a few years ago that my sister pours coke on the keyboard of my satellite 2430. :(

  Would like to hear a response from you :)

• Beeping sound and flashing - Satellite A100-200 at the beginning upward

  My Satellite A100-200 is three months old and stopped working. When I start there is a continuous beep and a flasher above the hard drive indicator.

  Is that what I can do or is it a warranty repair

  Hello

  stop your machine immediately, or that you have installed things before? Have you tried to remove the hard drive and if you have 2 RAM modules at least one of them?

  If all fails, you will need to give your machine a local service partner. They will then solve your problem.

• Satellite P300 - 13 M - beeps at startup

  Hello

  My laptop now and then beeps at startup and then I get a black screen (and can't do anything)
  The beepingsounds goes as follows: BEEEEEEEEEEEP BEEP BEEP (1 x long - 2 short)

  Anyone know what this could be?

  It is very annoying when I want to show my client project and all of a sudden the laptop no longer works...

  Thnx in advance

  Raey

  Hello!

  Beep codes mean that there is a faulty hardware component.
  It's not easy to tell what is the reason for this, but in your case I would try to exchange the RAM.

  If it doesn't work you should contact an ASP and ask for help. Technicians can check your laptop and exchanging all the necessary parts.
  On the Toshiba site, you can search the nearest ASP:

• Reinstall XP on Satellite A100 without CD

  Hello

  I bought a Satellite A100 just now, and it came with XP is already installed. Over the years, I've collected (unintentionally) and other virus and now I want to reformat the drive.

  Problem is when I try to access the partition as described in the FAQ. I want the 0 button and startup, the laptop will beep but then starts as usual.

  Because I'm not the only user, it was possible that the score has been compromised if another user has opened the drive and delete what it thought was unnecessary or malicious software.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you!

  > The problem is, when I try to access the partition as described in the FAQ. I want the 0 button and startup, the laptop will beep but then starts as usual.

  I know this procedure only works with some Australian portable Toshiba and only if the laptop was equipped with the recovery of HARD drive partition.
  I m not sure if your A100 has such a HARD drive partition, but I think this should be mentioned in your user manual.

  If the laptop does not contain this partition of HARD drive, then you will need to use a Setup disk to install the OS on the HARD drive.

• No display after installing linux on Satellite A100

  Hi all

  The weekend, I decided to install linux on a partition on my toshiba satellite a100. I did a new install of windows from the recovery cd and everything worked fine. I then installed linux on an extended partition and my computer does not display anything on startup - (the LCD has a backlight) and I get all the beeps and reads it from CD etc. The strange thing is that I can plug it into an external monitor and it works fine. When I start with an external display I can then go to the LCD screen and I get a screen but it is very slow and has a lot of flaws.

  I've updated the bios, installed the latest graphics drivers (ati), but still no improvement. Since the linux install I deleted the partition scope and installed windows from the restore CD (still no improvement).

  Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can try next?

  Thank you in advanced for your help.

  Ask what you can do?
  Delete and format the whole HARD drive and reinstall the OS from the recovery CD.
  If you want to use Linux, I advise to use a Knoppix. You can get it on the Live CD and it s not necessary to install it on the HARD drive.

• Graphics card on the Satellite A100-386 maybe replaced/implemented to date?

  Hi all

  Probably having heat with my satellite a100 problem, I ran to the point were the remains of dark screen and no boot at all!
  Everything has been cleaned inside the dust thermal paste applied on the three places needed.

  A few months ago, I put 2 RAM to 2 GB to she thrust a little: he was fine until a few days with moment stops after an hour or so at the end of the great: do not start with no beep, nothing except the fan and the power led.

  Open it, I saw the thing near the fan which could be the video card, which seems to be removable, quite rare is it not?

  If that's really remplaceable, I need to find the exact same, card nvidia geforce Go 7300 Tc, say on the card, or is there the possibility to put a better card?

  As far as I know, it does not reserve an establishing a removable part so can in any way with the other parts of the computer to change (compatibility), unless it is for reasons of cost...

  Thanks for help

  AFAIK GPU is not extensible and on some model GPU is not fixed on the motherboard and can be exchanged. If you want to replace it than just with the same if one only, you will be able to buy a.

  >.. no more boot with no beep, nothing except the fan and the power led.
  That is a little strange that there is no sound signal. To me, it sounds like a BIOS problem.

• Satellite A100-991 - cannot boot from USB device

  My Satellite A100-991 (MS Windows XP MCE, SP3) does not start from a USB key or USB hard drive. The same USB devices are bootable if they are connected to a desktop computer or a laptop from other manufacturers. I put the USB as the first boot device and use an image "Bart PE" on my USB device.

  In fact, I have installed 2.10 Phoenix Bios version and I wonder if I could update the BIOS by using the 'sa105v21.exe' program and that this would resolve the startup problem.

  Hello

  Have you tested different USB keys? I think that your current USB key is not compatible
  Also test the USB to different USB ports. A port may be defective for the computer to start t with him.

  Theoretically, you can try upgrading the BIOS but don t forget s a bit more risky and it should be the last step.
  Prior to this, load default settings in the BIOS and check if you can boot from USB.
