Satellite A100: Black screen on startup of windows

Hello everyone,

my screen doesn't show anything until windows XP starts. No toshiba start screen, no boot menu. The rest works batteries, no errors. I would like to have the normal start with: "press del to enter setup" etc.

Thanks for the help

Hello

Something like press DELETE to enter Setup does not appear because usually, at the beginning, only the Toshiba start screen should appear.
If you want to get into the BIOS you press "F2". Pressing the DEL you will not enter the BIOS. It s a notebook, not a desktop PC, my friend ;)

What you can do is to disable Quiet Boot in the BIOS. Then active diagnosis and summary screen appears.

  • Satellite A100 - black screen on startup

    For two days my laptop Toshiba A100-495 / model-No. PSAA9E-18F047GR / Y6065357Q with Windows XP SP3 serial shows a black screen at startup. There is still no picture Windows startup.

    The laptop is all starting, but after finishing and be ready for use, the screen is always black. When I am pressing Fn + F5 keys, the desktop appears.

    The black screen is only starting cold after stopping, not awareness of standby or pause.

    > When I am pressing Fn + F5 keys, the desktop appears

    It seems that the display output is set to external monitor
    You see the Toshiba start screen if the laptop is connected to the external monitor?
    Check it!

    In addition, I am agree with Akuma BIOS should be the default value.
    To access the BIOS F2 press while turning on the laptop. I hope that you can do this then press F9 for default settings and then exit the BIOS save settings.

  • Equium A100 black screen at startup

    Laptop Toshiba Satellite A100
    Completely black startup screen, so please don't say go in safe mode, etc., because I can't.
    I can't see a thing.

    As once in every 100 goes, it lights up and I can F12 to boot from the disk to format but it ends by crashes before the end.

    Video showing what is happening - BTW the buttons you see me pressing are Fn + F5, I heard that it sometimes works, but yes, it didn't.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Don't look good man, I think that it s serious a material question
    I checked the film and cannot hear a beep when the laptop passes the POST (power self test). So for me it looks like something wrong with the hardware

    But have you tried to connect an external monitor to check if something is not visible on the second screen? Check this box

    You can also try this:
    Unplug the power adapter, remove the battery, wait a while (3 to 5 hours), then connect the two parts and try to turn on the laptop. If this does not work, well in this case have no many other ideas. Oh, maybe you could check the memory modules RAM. Try turning on the laptop using a module in each slot

  • Satellite M70 - black screen on startup

    Hello!

    I have a problem with my Satellite M70-309, so for two times after logo Toshiba, Windows Xp (home sp2) does not start.
    The result is a WHITE & BLACK SCREEN.
    So I turned off manually appeared then black screen where I can choose if starting normally, last good configuration etc...

    That's happened?
    Is a hardware problem? Because my cpu died last month I changed it.

    Thank you!
    (Sorry for my English I'm Italian)

    Hi, RSC

    It is not easy to tell what can be the problem, but I assume that there is something wrong with the HARD drive. It will be interesting what happens with the new HARD drive.

    If possible also start the recovery procedure to see if the HARD drive will be recognized correctly and if the recovery procedure starts correctly. Check it using the installation in expert mode where you have access to information from HARD drive (partitions and so on).

  • Black screen on startup after windows update 7 crashed

    Hello

    Hope you can help.

    I have windows 7 64 bit installed and everything was fine until last night.

    It seems a windows update has been downloaded and when I turned my PC it was installing the update - the projection of the usual blue installation screen updates etc.

    It took a long time and it seems to me he had crashed, has frozen I couldn't move the mouse.

    Yes I know it says that you should not turn the PC while the update was the installation, but for me, it seemed like it had crashed and frozen upward.

    So I decided turn off the pc and he left the next day to check the pc.

    I turn on the pc and select windows 7 in my list - I have Setup dual boot

    I get the message that windows did not start properly, so I select boot normally - I get the swirly logo appear and then just a black screen with the cursor that responds to moving the mouse.

    There's just the black screen with the cursor and pass to the next step of the login screen.

    I think because of the windows don't update not install correctly and turning the pc off this contributed to hang on the black screen.

    I tried to start in safe mode to see if the same problem which he passes, I can connect via the SafeMode very well and have the available login screen and entered fine windows via safe mode.

    I get ideas as to what I can do to solve this black screen?

    To confirm once again, this has happened after a windows update tries to install, but as I felt it had crashed I turned off the pc - no drivers graphics etc. have been installed for a long time - only this update of windows

    I hope you can help, thank you very much

    InnI

    EDIT: Just to add that I tried to do a restore point, but as I turned it off I don't have the option to do so.

    Hi Martin,

    Thanks for the reply.

    I tried something last night after going through loads of forums.

    I tried F8 for advanced startup options, and I'll give you good last thinking setting up a go, known guess what, it worked!

    I was able to return in Office windows as usual, I even installed the update that it crashed on the last time, well, I think that he reinstalled the last update, it crashed on... anyway, I think I'm back to normal, but will check it out tonight but if you are still having problem try what I did It can work for you.

    Hey,.

    My book freezes the other day and then stop. Since he was unable to rebot. Are power and battery light and when I go to turn it on it lights up and will ether stay on for 5 seconds and turn off or stay on but always with a black screen.

    Anyone of you guys please help.

    Hello

    In your case, I would first check the memory modules.
    The point is that a faulty module would affect the startup process of laptop you would not be able to access the BIOS, if the modules are defective.

    You said that the laptop shut down it would mean that temperature is rising to a higher level and so the laptop turned off to avoid the equipment against damage

    In your case, all may be possible as I said; RAM should be checked initially, if the Rams are ok, then other parts like the CPU and motherboard must be verified
    I think you don't have much experience, and not enough resources to run tests and this is why I recommend to contact a technician. The professional guys could test parts and eventually could replace

  • Only get a black screen on startup of Windows

    I have the most recent 5K 27 "iMac with a Radeon R9 M380.

    I want to install Windows 10 with an ISO and the process seemed all fine, even managed to get to the point connect you with my Microsoft account.

    But then after that I got a black screen.  Off and then restarted back in the Windows partition.  I get the small circle of loading Windows but then after that another black screen.

    I was wondering anyone knows it?

    You can start Windows safe mode? You have probably installed a wrong driver GPU.

  • Satellite L300D - black screen on startup

    Hi guys, I need help please. On Thursday, I was on my computer and noticed that the weather was bad, I thought I have to do something wrong and were going to remedy. I went to my computer, but it wouldn't boot just had a black screen. I knew that I didn't damage the display. After a bit of research on Google I read to take out the battery and plug the charger in and low and behold, it worked!

    Friday, I charged my battery for an hour and put it in the computer and that worked too so I thought that the problem has been resolved.

    Unfortunately today my computer does not start with or without the battery to still get the black screen. Fan runs but apart from that very quiet sound. I tried putting the cd in see if that would be nothing, but it didn't.

    Any suggestions please?

    Try this:
    Unplug the AC adapter and the battery. Press the power button / stop along 30 sec.
    Connect the battery and the AC adapter and turn on unit t - it work?
    If this is not the case, connect an external monitor and check if something would be visible on 2nd screen
    If anything wouldn't show so I suppose you ve you have a motherboard serious hardware problem

  • Satellite L755D: black screen after startup or switching of external monitor

    I have a strange problem with my Satellite L755D. I normally use an external monitor that works very well.

    If I want to switch to the laptops monitor using Fn + F5, the laptop monitor remains dark, but you can see (more guessing) office.

    Just the bright background lights. Same thing if I boot without the external monitor. In the beginning (phase BIOS?), you can see the normal symbols, then the screen turns to.

    Funny, is that these two problems do not appear when I cut the power supply and the laptop runs on battery only.
    Any ideas, what the reason could be?

    Thank you
    Mason

    Funny, is that these two problems do not appear when I cut the power supply and the laptop runs on battery only.

    Maybe you should check the configuration of power plan that is used only in battery mode.
    It might be possible that the backlight settings have been set at a lower value by using the power of the battery.
    I recommend you to check this in the ATI catalyst and windows power options.

    If possible try to connect the external monitor to your laptop and check if you can see something there.
    You know, on this virtual path, it is not easy to say why this happens.
    It may be faulty laptop screen, problems of connections or graphics card failure.

  • Satellite A305-S6898 - half black screen at startup

    I bought this laptop in early March and had to return to store due to a problem at startup when half of the screen would be black on the Windows login screen. They ordered me a new I got about 3 weeks ago and I used it for about a week before I had the same problem of a half black screen on startup.

    Now he has been running really slow and there is a time, I've had it freeze on me and my screen turn into a bunch of colored lines.
    I had to reboot in safe mode and run a virus scan just to make sure it wasn't my problem.

    I do not download anything on this computer other than basic messengers and photo editing programs.
    I have a HP MP7170N desktop computer which I use to download everything that seems to work faster than the laptop and I use photo, download torrents programs and store most of my pictures and music on this one and it has only 1 GB of memory compared to this the 4 GB.

    What is the problem?
    Anyone have any ideas as to what I can do.
    I can't really go back to the shop because they give only a grace period of 14 days for returns.

    > I had the same problem of a half black screen on startup.
    > Now he has been running really slow and there is a time, I've had it freeze on me and my screen turn into a bunch of colored lines.

    Doesn't look good for me it sounds a bit like graphic problem.
    Before contacting a professional Toshiba authorized service provider would be, it would be interesting to know if you have seen improvements after recovery procedure and BIOS updated.
    I think you n t get a recovery disk because you can create it using the verification of software preinstalled Toshiba manual how to create the recovery disk

    If, after installing new check usability of portable and so similar issues still persists.
    If nothing will change it s is strongly recommended to communicate with an ASP.
