  Hello

  Are you sure that you have set the BIOS password?
  If you set the BIOS password then the laptop would request the password before it would start in Windows Vista.

  I think that set you the password of the user or supervisor password!

  In Toshiba Assist-> Secure you could erase that two passwords too.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  It is a typical software problem
  I read a lot of discussion on this error message and in most cases, new installation/update driver does the job!

  Please ensure that you use the latest version of the BIOS.
  Go to the Device Manager, then go to imaging devices.
  You can find the USB video device it's plays.

  This remove from the Device Manager list. Alternatively, you can uninstall the driver
  Restart the device, and then try to install the driver again

  Please make sure you use the latest webcam software... you can choose the published software for Satellite L500 too!

  Hey,.

  You can start Windows in safe mode?

  In addition it might be interesting what you have installed or changed the software/driver. Perhaps restore the system to an earlier point might be useful.

  By the way: did you use a Microsoft Windows 7 disk?

• Re: Satellite A300-1GN - required XP for a long time to start

  Hello

  I have the Satellite A300-1GN.
  I reinstalled from Vista to XP Home.
  After you have installed all the drivers from my system starts more than 4 minutes. I'm on SATA (no AHCI) compatibility mode.
  You have the same problem?

  I can't go because I have the blue screen to AHCI.

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  If you have disabled the SATA feature then the HARD drive and the entire operating system can not be used with better performance and this could be the reason why the laptop needs a little more to start.

  But the problem is that if you allow the AHCI in the BIOS, then your operating system would not start and you need to reinstall new OS using the SATA drivers.

  Another reason why Notepad starts slowly could be a large amount of running system process in the context of the BONE.

  Factors that could affect the start-up procedure

• Re: Satellite P850 sets a BIOS password after update BIOS 1.50

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite P850/040 and after the BIOS update to the new version 1.50 I checked that a BIOS password has been set up, if I can start the operating system.

  It's amazing. I am very disappointed with Toshiba.

  How can I remove this password? Perhaps with no matter what JCMOS rider?

  Thanks in advance.

  > How can I remove this password? Perhaps with no matter what JCMOS rider?
  Unfortunately, something like this will not work. Best thing you can do now is to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.

  You shouldn't be disappointed. I know it's stupid situation but make a call, explain the situation and the guy will help you.

  You will find the phone number?

• Satellite Pro A100 request BIOS password which was never put

  Hiya

  Have had my Satellite Pro A100 for almost 2 years and that all this time have never even heard of a password system, but all of a sudden, I turned on the laptop this morning and it does not load. I tried pressing F12 (can't remember why, it seemed the thing to do to read the instructions at the bottom of the screen), but nothing happened so I just turned off the power. Put on again, he asked the system password. (A black screen with a blue box, with the old text base BACK type fonts).

  I have no idea what it could be, I tried the word system and tried just pressing on enter without text in there but it says incorrect password. I removed the battery and left 10 hours but put it back in the machine there is no difference, it will not always go through this screen.

  I am the only user on this machine, have no idea what caused it. I am aware of security, have installed on complete McAfee AV and did not have anything odd happen at all. Didn't last changes made to the configuration, no new software etc. so I have no idea what prompted it.

  Can anyone help please?

  Thanks in advance

  This password seems to be a BIOS password, but I have no idea why this password is displayed if you have never defined it.
  Unfortunately, there is not a lot to see the BIOS password can be removed without the help of an ASP.

  Then, contact the service provider allowed in your country and request removal of the password.

  I also recommend updating the BIOS after the technician removed the password.

  Do you know how to find the ASP closest?

• Satellite A300 - after update BIOS black screen

  Hi all
  I just applied the update to the BIOS on my Satellite A300. After the update is successful, the system carries out a restart. Now when I try to start it I get no display, I can hear the proceedings to hear it, the CD player, the DVD, playback led flashes.

  The ASP Toshiba rang me (phone call), the motherboard must be replaced after a bios update, but it is very expensive for me :(
  Please can you tell me if they are a way to fix it without replacing the motherboard? The bios is an Insyde and according to the site Internet the bios bios [recovery technology | http://www.insydesw.com/press/2008/press_060308.htm]. I guess that the ASP does not know that.

  Please can you tell me how to start the recovery procedure it is possible (combination?),.
  Any help on fixing the laptop without replacing the motherboard will be much appreciated.

  Hello!

  I think that the ASP is just and in the worst cases, the motherboard should be replaced.

  You can try to remove the battery and the AC adapter. Wait one hour and then connect the AC adapter and the battery and try again.

  If it doesn't work you should go to an ASP. Perhaps a BIOS reset can solve the problem, but it can be done from an ASP.

  Good bye

• Satellite A300 - after the BIOS update I can not install two OS

  Hello everyone:

  I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite A300-247 with Windows Vista Home Premium.

  Then I formatted it and divided the hard (320 GB) into 6 partitions and installed Windows Vista and Windows XP on drive C to drive D after having changed the SATA controller mode in the BIOS for compatibility. The computer worked well with 2 operating systems. However, when I updated the BIOS to version 1.9, two operating systems stop working and one of them can be installed: XP can be installed when SATA controller mode is placed on compatibility and Vista can be installed only when the SATA is changed to AHCI.

  Is there is no explanation of what past? And can I install operating systems 2 together again?

  Thank you

  Hello

  First of all, I doubt that this has something to do with the BIOS update. I think that after the BIOS update HARD drive mode has been changed from AHCI to compatibility and therefore the OS didn't start.

  Anyway, in compatibility mode you can install Vista and XP without the SATA drivers. This should t be a problem.

  But do you know the difference between compatibility and AHCI? AHCI mode is faster and therefore I would recommend this mode.
  Like you said Vista you can already install in AHCI mode and for XP, you need Intel Storage Manager. This package includes the SATA drivers you need and here is a step by step guide to use these drivers:
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD9401AN0000R01.htm

  Last but not least, you can install 2 OS. You can do what you want! ;)
