Satellite A100 - BIOS password not accepted after computer take part

(Sorry if this question has been asked before, I searched through topics, but too many subjects was found.)

I have an old A100 for 3 years with no guarantee. I want to sell it so I took apart to clean dust. Everything for the motherboard. When everything has been cleaned and I reinstalled everything, I turned it on and the password of the BIOS has not been accepted. I know the password and it's OK to 100% and shift lock is not locked on.

Is it possible that the keyboard flat cable has been installed wrongly, the cable was - a.f.a.i.k - reinstalled right, because there is only one way to insert into the slot on the motherboard. (Sorry for my bad English)

Or BIOS confused and handed over to zero in some Toshiba service password? Is this possible?

The caps lock is locking itself led of lights up and can not turn off with the CAPS LOCK key.

What is the solution?

> Is it possible that the keyboard flat cable has been installed wrongly,
Connect the keyboard external usb to check (this is good if you remove the internal keyboard when checking)

> Or BIOS confused and handed over to zero in some Toshiba service password? Is this possible?
No, it is impossible that this password has been reset. In any case, I've never heard

  • Satellite Z30 - A - 12R BIOS password not recognized after update BIOS

    I updated the bios after that I warned the Bios of Toshiba v3.50. The process was done by the utility software of Toshiba and after restarting it has 'password =' on a blank screen and it does not recognize my BIOS password, write not 'certified '.

    I also tried the HARD drive password, but no luck.

    What can I do now?

    Hello

    Before you try to update the BIOS, all passwords must be removed!
    BIOS password can be removed by the authorized service provider available in your country.

    But the unknown HARD disk password can be removed more.
    In such a case the HDD isn't accessible and cannot be used.

    Mate sorry but in my opinion that you only have one chance to get the BIOS password removed. you need the help of ASP.

  • Satellite A100: Bios password appears - what should I do?

    Hello world

    Last year, I bought my toshiba Satellite A100. I never set a Bios password. Today I was working normal. Then I restarted my laptop and got the password.

    Now I can't access my laptop. Is this a common problem? What should I do?

    concerning

    No, this isn't a common problem. It s absolutely impossible that a BIOS password is stated zero part.

    In general, you will need to send the machine to an ASP for the removal of the password, but before you do, I would ask all members of your family who has access to your computer if it has put a bios password and wanted to make a joke (in this case it s not a really nice joke)

    Hello

    > but when I installed the second RAM after the BIOS Windows screen accept 2 GB of RAM.
    This means that you install RAM modules while the laptop is running?
    I m wondering your laptop still works. Normally, you could destroy the whole motherboard and the module.

    Anyway, to me it sounds like that your laptop isn't compatible with the memory modules vive. What modules do you have exactly?
    I have good experiences with the Kingston modules.

  • Satellite A100 - BIOS flash not finished

    My PC is a Satellite A100 PSAANE and after updating the BIOS an error pops up and flash not finished...
    I stop the PC and when I started it don t start

    How do I get back the original BIOS or how kan I do a new update of the BIOS via USB or CD?

    If the BIOS update was not properly finished, I fear you have real problem now and authorized service provider can help with this.
    I guess that you do not start your laptop. Am I right about that?

    Sorry but there is nothing that you can do it alone. Traditional BIOS update (diskette) doesn't exist for this model of laptop. Sorry :(

  • Satellite A100 BIOS password request

    I did a disk check on my Satellite A100, but after the control of what my system is in place with the message "Password".
    There is no password set for the system.
    What should I do?

    Pleas help.

    I agree with Akuma, but I don t understand why Notepad starts with a password prompt.

    What did you do when you said I did a disk check? Have you done a Windows checkdisk?

    However, an ASP (authorized service provider) can remove the password. You can search on the Toshiba site to find an ASP.

  • password not accepted after that laptop wakes from sleep

    When my laptop is on battery power and idle for a while, it goes into sleep mode. When I want to start working again, Windows does not accept my password. I need to change username, then click on my profile (which displays LOCKED) and only then Windows accept my password.

    After doing a search on the net, I see other Windows 7 users have the same problem...

    Hi Sean, the problem may be that the NumLock key is on in your profile.

    Try this.  Hit the key Windows and r and type regedit and click ok.  Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Keyboard and locate the InitialKeyboardIndicators value.  DoubleClick on it and change the value from 2 to 0.  Click ok and restart.

    Let us know if this helped.

  • Satellite A100-447 does not accept the 1 GB of flash memory or a memory stick?

    I've had my laptop since March and have used a compact flash 128 or 256 MB via adapter without any problem.
    However, I have now bought a 1 GB (for my Eos 300 d) but my laptop says cannot find software?

    I then bought a memory stick USB 2.0 1 GB, but my laptop does not accept that no more? In both cases, it search in windows for the solution, and then asks for the disc accompanying the material. My husband (good PC knowledge) is at a lost as I am.

    Any advice would be much appreciated.

    A moment please. talk you about the USB drive that is plugged into the USB port?

    Well, usually all USB devices should be recognized without any bigger problems.
    Sometimes the 3rd devices come with a driver, but usually the operating system should be recognized as a new device!

    Are you using the Vista operating system?

    If Yes, please disconnect all USB devices and remove all the USB ports on the Device Manager.
    Reboot the laptop. After the operating system has loaded the ports should be recognised again. Then you should try to plug the USB again.

    PS: Please check if Vista has been updated! This Microsoft document describes several USB with Vista problem and provides a new patch:

  • Satellite A210 - BIOS does not work after upgrade

    Hello

    I have a satellite A210-17 for a few years now, but I made the mistake to go to the Microsoft Web site
    to make a BIOS setting to day and once I installed upgrading BIOS, that the laptop did not return ever on, black screen.

    I brought a guy in the month city 3 or 4 he is, he said, it could replace a bios chip if necessary
    but did nothing or I would have heard of him now.

    Is it possible that I can get the bios chip and have him install for me?
    I don't have 200 euros to replace the whole motherboard.

    This laptop was brilliant before that.

    Thanks in advance

    Update the BIOS is a very serious procedure, and the use of fake and not compatible BIOS would damage the motherboard.

    To be honest, I don t think that the replacement of the EPROM would help you that of course, the BIOS is stored on EPROM module but in most cases this chip is soldered to the motherboard and the EPROM replacement will not be easy

    To my knowledge the EPROM module could be flashed once more using the crisis disk BIOS and the special procedure. Usually, these updates of the crisis of the BIOS can be done by maintainer authorized Toshiba and that don t require the replacement of the EPROM module.

    I also read in this forum that some guy tried to Flash the EPROM module to clean hands in some cases, it worked, but in different cases such update does not work correctly

    However, I recommend you to use the advanced search option forum and check a few different discussions on crisis disk BIOS / update

    Otherwise I recommend you contact the Toshiba ASP in your country and products BIOS Update of the crisis

  • On Satellite Pro A100 BIOS password

    On 08 February he made that it self a BIOSpassword and when I went to Toshiba they me charge about $ 100 to reset but it is November again and they reset it without charge.

    They told me to do a BIOS password, so he can't make a password that it self but today I left it open, and as usual he go to Hibernate it self but when I turned on it asks for a password. I entered the password. I know, but it's not accept it!

    I don t know where the problem is.
    Can an authorized here tell me how to fix or what the problem?

    Thnx

    Hello

    > Can someone with authority here tell me how to solve or where is the problem?
    Don t understand what you mean by authorized. Here, you will meet common Toshiba users like me and you, and not just any ASP guy!
    If you need to remove the BIOS password that I recommend you contact the ASP guys one more time and to clarify this issue.
    Perhaps the BIOS should be updated after removing the BIOS password again.
