Satellite C55: error - no boot device

My laptop showing No. BOOTABLE DEVICE - insert the diskette of starting, and then press any key

I do not have any disk how do I fix this

Hi Renji

Of course, no boot device (typically the HARD drive) can be found and so the laptop asks to insert media to boot the system.

End most of the cases this message appears if the internal HARD drive is defective, and no system located on the HARD disk... it would be also possible that the HARD drive is not recognized by the BIOS.

That's why I recommend you to check the BIOS (first page).
Usually, HARD drive should appear on the first page of the BIOS, and you should see some HDD details such as size of HARD drive or the HARD drive name.

If the HARD drive does not appear, you will need to replace the HARD drive and retrieve the laptop using the Toshiba recovery disc.

You said that you do not have the installation diskettes... Well for me it means that you have not created the recovery disc in the past...
It was a big mistake; However, you can order the CD here:

This time when I started it went to a black and white screen then reading letters controls the media, checking [fail] media and then no boot device. Restart the system.

    Hello

    In general the media error check failure always appears if the BIOS cannot find the boot device.

    In my opinion the various basic scenarios are possible:
    First of all it is possible that your HARD drive is dead and so laptop can not find system
    But this seems strange because in case of BIOS, HARD drive problems would turn to another bootable device as ODD or LAN.

    So a card mother (defective controller for example?) general problem could also be possible.

    To be honest, it of always difficult to establish a fair and definitive diagnosis without verification of the material first.
    Anyway, in my opinion, you should check if the new HARD drive and the new installation of the OS would solve your problem.

    Of course, you can try to start Notepad using a LiveCD bootable disk just to see if you could start Notepad without a fresh install of the OS.

  • Satellite C50-A0413 - no boot device - restart System

    Satellite C50-A0413 that was installed with Win8 pr but I didn't like it so I decided to downgrade it so that I can install Win7.

    I formatted the HARD drive and then installed Win7 on the HARD drive. Everything happened until perfect present, but do not forget that the HARD drive was working on another machine, so when I put it back for the things of my laptop went bad because the machine couldn't detect my drive again. Is he didn't keep show no boot device - restart System. What has tried to remedy the situation? Press f2 to access my utility set up 'Security' tab and change the value of the "Secure Boot" option to "Disabled" then the System Configuration but I can't find Boot Mode to change the UEFI to CSM.

    What do I do please help?

  • Satellite L50 - B - "no boot device - please reboot your system.

    This laptop does not start, it gives just the message "no boot device - please reboot your system.

    It looks like the partition table has disappeared.

    There is no support of recovery, no recovery partition, I can access it on the hard drive and no Windows key.

    L50 - B PSKTNA-02R016 satellite

    Have tried to start while holding down the 0 key, but no luck.

    This computer is TWO DAYS OLD!

    According to specifications of the laptop, this machine was delivered with pre-installed Win8.1. Yes, there is no recovery media. For years, Toshiba and many other laptop manufacturers offer laptops without disk installation, but original recovery image is saved on the HARD drive, so if everything is OK you can start installation of recovery of the HARD disk image or create a recovery media that you can use for installing the OS.

    If you get your laptop work again thanks to create this media. How this is described in the document s user manuals.

    Recovery partition cannot disappear from the only one. to be honest, it's not clear to me what happens exactly with your laptop.

    Start your machine and press F12 to get into the boot menu. There you should find option enter the configuration. Using this option, you will be able to enter the BIOS settings. Please check if the HARD drive is listed and recognized correctly. by default the BIOS settings and restart your laptop. What happens when you do this?

  • I have a hp mini 311-1037nr who recently failed to start. data error is "boot device not found.

    My hp mini 311-1037nr does not start. Its running windows 7 and no changes have been made. Error message is "boot device not found. It will not run a hard drive test, gives "the hard disk does not exist '. Tried not to reset the default settings of the BIOS also no luck. any ideas?

    Drive appears you in the BIOS? If not, and if reinstalling it does not help that I assume safely that the hard disk is dead.

    You can also try to download/creation of the various Linux Live boot floppies [Unbuntu, PartedMagic, etc.] to confirm that your other components are not at fault. If you can start and run a live linux OS then your other components of the system may very well.

    You can also remove the drive of your machine and install it as a secondary drive in another computer or a disk to see if you can access it.

    You can also run a HDD diagnosis by accessing your site of hard drive manufacturers and download/creating a diagnostic boot disk.

  • New hard disk identified but causes the error "no boot device found".

    Hello

    Recently my computer (Inspiron 15 3521) had hard drive failures, so I ran a diagnosis which resulted in replace me the hard drive. I thought I would upgrade the old 500 GB for a hard drive of tuberculosis.

    Now, when I install the new hard drive, that it translates "found no boot device" I ran diagnostics on it and checked everything, and it recognizes the hard disk. Diagnosis is nothing but the problem persists. Any help would be great!

    The fundamental question: you have installed Windows on the drive?  New disks arrive Virgin - you'll need the support of recovery do you when you have received the system to install the operating system on the disk.

  • Satellite L300D - error code 19 Device Manager on the CD/DVD drive

    I have a model of Satellite L300D PSLC0E and you just install Windows 7 upgrade from Vista, everything goes well outside the HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T50N ATA DEVICE and ATI. With the HL - DT - ST DVDRAM GSA - T50N ATA DEVICE this a driver problem, it is said it seems to do with NTI Backup 4, tried to update for NTI Backup now 4.5 but still no luck.

    With ATI I run updates and reinstalled the program, system check, it shows that it is installed and everything works, but I don't seem to be able to change the display settings most important is 1200 x 800, I seem to think that with ATI there should be more, but not sure because when I start to run a set of changes in the size of the screen to 1024 x 768 , and I can't change anything. Any body any ideas?

    Hello

    (1) also tried to remove the capital letters and lowerfilters in the registry? In the forum, I noticed that this does not resolve this error code. On the Microsoft Knowledge Base, you can find a solution for this:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/314060

    (2) I also have Satellite L300D and the maximum screen resolution is 1200 x 800. So you can set a higher screen resolution on internal monitor, this is possible on the external monitor.
    And normally, you can change the resolution of the screen in every game. Check this box!

    Hello

    Set the BIOS to boot from the hard drive first. Often F2 as the computer starts then
    look at the screen to enter the BIOS/CMOS (Setup) to change the boot order.

    Check with Toshiba Support, their drivers and documentation online and ask for their

    • Turn off the computer and unplug the charger. Then remove the battery only if it is removable.
    • Press and hold the power button on the unit for 15 seconds to carry out the static electrical charges inside the machine.
    • Replace the battery and the charger plug it back. Try to turn on the computer.
    • Please perform a default bios also.
