Satellite A200-1O5 - beep at startup

Hello

My satellite makes sometimes a few loud beeps when starting the Bios for about half a minute.
After that, it starts to boot the OS (Vista) without any problem.
But something must be wrong (because of the beeps).

What could this be?

Thank you very much.

Gerd

Hello

If a stuck keyboard key it can cause these beep codes you have spilled something on the keyboard in the past?

Everything works correctly if Windows has started, or do you have other problems too?

As already written Akuma I recommend you contact a service provider authorized too. Guys can check your laptop because it is difficult to say what part is affected without exact diagnosis and it is possible that professional people. You can find a list of all FSA here:

Good luck! :)

  • Re: Satellite A200 - sound beep after startup

    Hello world

    Recently my laptop has started to be malfuntioning.
    Yesterday, after the start (or when you take it out of fashion 'sleep'), it started beeping.

    Beep, it's 10 minutes in a row, fast.

    I run a stock standard Satellite A200 Windows Vista Help.
    I don't know what to do, and over the ringtone (which lasts about 10-15 minutes) I can't do anything - the CPU (I think) simply cannot handle all of the processes. The ringtone comes from the right side of the laptop and is fake, but certainly a sign of a problem.

    I believe it has something to do with the motherboard, but I don't know how to diagnose this problem, and after hours of research I have not found someone with a similar problem to mine.

    I'm sorry if I posted this in the wrong forum, also the advice to confused and I just can't find a support technique one.

    Help, please

    Hello

    If I understand your problem, it seems that you are not able to enter the BIOS and you are not able to boot the operating system Window.
    You don't see that the home screen Toshiba so is good?

    Hmm, it seems that this sound signal is related to a hardware malfunction
    Then maybe the POST (power on self-test) cannot be spent properly and so you get this alert beep

    What to say; in most cases it mother s associated with, but it is difficult to say which could be exactly wrong

    Maybe you can try this;
    Remove the battery and unplug the power adapter for a few hours
    Wait and after a while connect the two parts again
    Then try again to turn the unit

    If this does not work, then I would recommend asking a technician help in ASP.

  • Equium A200 - continuous beep on startup

    A colleague has spilled water on an A200 Equium and therefore it emits a continuous beep on startup. In fact, you get one beep, immediately followed another. However, if you press F1 it starts OK and all is well. I ran Diagnostics and found nothing wrong.
    The only problem is that one or two of the keys work fine if you lightly touch them.

    Someone has ideas about resetting the sound signal, or what I could do? Thank you.

    Andy

    Hey,.

    I think that it s is not easy to say why this is happening but maybe the water has damaged the keyboard and there so always will be in a hurry I don t he know exactly.

    I think that it is not so useful for you if we discuss it here without test and we don t have made real for your laptop should be checked by a technician of the laptop. Guys can make a detailed diagnosis and order spare parts.

    On the Toshiba site, you can find a list of good luck of suppliers registered!

    Yet sometimes the laptop sounds without reason, for example in im on office, intenet etc.anyway what is the problem, my charger is plugged, so this isn't a battery low alarm or something.
    It happens around once every 2 days and beeps for 5-10 secs.anyone know the problem?

    THX all

    Hello John

    I'm lucky that something like this does not happen on my A200 but I noticed this odd behavior on my old Satellite M70. From time to time, it beeps and I don't really know why. This looks like a signal of BIOS. Sometimes I hear this a few times in the day and then nothing for days.

    I don't really know why this is happening, but I think I'll try to clean my laptop. Maybe it has something to do with the temperature of the material.

  • Satellite A200 - 1KO failure at startup

    I have a Satellite A200 - 1 k (several years). Suddenly, from one day to the other, it refuses to power upward. There are 5 blue lights to low forehead, which shows power light, on early light shows on, lightweight battery, the next lightight showson flickers and then dies, and the last for the internet access, of course, does not illuminate. In addition, on the right side of the machine, there are a yellow/orange light port DVD projection on, when I press the Start button, but the port will not open, so I don't know if there is a disc inside.

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks in advance.

    And what now?
    I put t understand what kind of help do you expect now.

    You don't see anything on the screen after turning on the laptop or not?
    If you want to see if there are drive inside you can manually open optical drive. Normally, there is a small hole under the disc tray. You can insert a paper clip or something similar into this hole and manually open the drive tray.

  • Satellite A200: password appears at startup

    Hello

    I bought a brand new series of Satellite A200 and wherever I turn on my laptop it is asking for password.

    Can someone help me get this password.
    How and from whare I can get that.

    Kind regards

    HM, it seems that it is a related issue of BIOS. In this case, please go first to the drivers download site and download the most recent BIOS for your machine. If the password does not change even after you have completed the update of the BIOS then go to the store where you bought the machine and tell them that your computer has a BIOS password since you bought it.

    He thinks they should handle your problem in your interest.

  • Satellite L350-12N - beeps during startup

    Hello

    I bought this as a refurbished laptop, and I have a problem getting it to start. When turned on, it says welcome to Toshiba screen where you can press the function keys to access the configuration screens, then the screen goes black, makes a continuous beep sound and goes no further. It loads the operating system.

    I tried to restore the operating system to the hard drive as described in the manual, but still the same fault. Is this a known indicator of a hardware or software failure?

    Any help or advice would be appreciated!

    Hello

    To be honest, I still don t understand what you exactly. Do you use F8 at the beginning upward to enter advanced startup options or what?

    You have created recovery DVD such as recommended by the reminder of Toshiba? If so, you can try installing the OS using this recovery media.

    In any case, enter the BIOS at startup settings upward and set it to default settings. HARD drive is recognized correctly in the BIOS settings?

    At the end I have to say that it is not easy to say what the problem is here. If please check out what several things and let us know if the HARD drive is recognized correctly, or what will happen if you try to install the OS by using initial recovery media.

  • Satellite M30 - continuous beep on startup

    I hope someone can help. I have a Satellite M30 - around the age of 18 months. When I turn on is comes up with a black screen and beeps continuous, light blue under the Start button / stop flashes constantly and takes a good 20 seconds or more before loading Windows... Only, this has happened for the last week or two.

  • Satellite P300-16n - beep on startup error

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite P300-16n.

    Since a few days ago, it cannot start. In fact, when I press the power button, the screen is already black and I got a beep: one long and two beep short beep.

    I see on many sites that the graphics card is out. I would like to change the graphics card. Is it possible? Where can I buy a new graphics card? How can I disassemble the Toshiba P300?

    Thank you for your help

    nb91

    > I would like to change the graphics card. Is it possible? Where can I buy a new graphics card? How can I disassemble the Toshiba P300?
    Unfortunately it's the worst thing that can happen with laptop. In general the GPU cannot be replaced and when something like this happens all motherboard needs to be replaced.

    You can try to use Google and check if you can find something but it is unclear to me that you can buy a graphics card in some online stores. Maybe on ebay and without warranty.

    All this is quite complicated.

  • Problem with the Satellite A200 and Windows Vista startup

    Yesterday, my laptop had some mistakes and tried to stop.
    He remained on the screen closed for quite a long time, so I decided to push the power button until it turns off.

    When I went to turn it back to the a started going through the normal screens, the Toshiba screen and then the white screen with the Microsoft flag down. At this point, the screen goes completely black and rest that way.

    Through starting initial power cord, light is turned on, the power supply is on the HARD drive light and then when the screen turns white HARD drive light turns off and stays off.

    I tried to do a system repair using the F8 key at startup and it goes into the Advanced Boot Options menu when I select 'Repair your computer', the light of the HARD drive temporarily, I go through the screens and select System Restore, I selected a date a few weeks and then click Next on the screen indicating the (c :)) system disk is ready to be restored then it returns an error -" (c) drive has errors. Windows has detected corruption in the file (c) system.

    You should check the drive for errors before you can restore it "- and at this point, I can only click on the 'check' the drive to find errors, and then click Start, as he chose the option 'Automatically fix file system errors'."

    When I click Start nothing seems to happen just on the same screen, the HARD drive light does not come on at all and there is no internal HARD drive noise. The only way I can get out of this screen is to turn the computer off again.

    If someone is able to help I would really appreciate it!

    Thank you!

  • Satellite A100 beep at startup

    My Satellite A100 still beeps at startup (or when he wakes up after hibernation) as if a key is pressed down, and it will not stop until I press one ' ~ ' key (just below "Esc"). In addition, it begins this character by typing in the field log-in on the start screen.

    Any ideas why this might happen?

    HI Maria,

    It seems to me that if the key is either stuck or is defective. It is possible that the keys are shorted or the rubber under the top key shared so that contacts of does not return to the open"" position.

    I suggest that you only contact authorized Service partner who can check the keyboard.

    Kind regards

    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.

  • Satellite A200 freezes / restarts randomly on startup

    Hello

    I have Toshiba Satellite A200, Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 6.0.6002.
    Intel (r) Core (TM) 2 Duo CPU T5450 at 1.66 GHz
    Video ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2400 version = 8.380.0.0
    Audio version of Realtek High Definition Audio = 6.0.1.5406
    Network Marvell Yukon 88E8055 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller version = 10.0.4.3
    Intel (r) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection version = 11.5.0.32

    For the two weeks... my laptop randomly freezes / restarts... especially when it is started for the first time in the day OR after being in standby / hibernation of State for a few hours.
    Sometimes it gets stuck before we get to the login screen... sometimes shortly after... no certain activity seems to be related to this gel. And it's not freezing all the time... sometimes it restarts too. No blue screen.

    No new software installed, except regular updates of windows. No conflict in the device driver. I checked the website of toshiba for the latest drivers. BIOS had a newer version... So I installed which (2.5). But the problem has not disappeared.

    When the computer reboots, it works fine... I'm not able to find something to worry about in the event viewer. Start logging also came not to the top with a few errors. I also disabled the option restart automatically.

    Windows partition was low on space... only 6 GB left of allotted 40 GB... so I thought to backup and install from scratch... do that... all the updates that are installed during the next days... but my laptop is back to the same State. One thing I notice, is that now it takes longer after starting (and then restart) to connect to the wireless router. But this isn't a problem.

    Microsoft Fix It didn't help either... am looking for help to identify the cause and resolve it.

    Is there a conflict somewhere which surfaces while system is booting high / shortly after startup?

    Thank you in advance.

    > How we can say is that there is nothing wrong with the equipment? What else can a check?
    The new installation of the operating system has not helped. Right?
    So for me it looks like hardware related issue.
    I think the disk HARD or RAM (memory)

    The HARD drive can be easily verified. Download the drive diagnostic tool called HARD: Drive Fitness Test
    It s freeware tool and it allows you to scan the HARD drive and get details on possible malfunction.

    The diagnosis of RAM can be done easily. Of course, there are tools like memtest86 + and similar, but in my experience the results of the analysis are not always 100% right
    So, in that these cases it s always a good idea to test the laptop using new tested s RAM
