Satellite C850-B883 - media - verification failure

Dear Toshiba

I am expierencing this "media audit, fail" message on my pc and does not start.
Please help on how to solve this problem.

My model is C850-B883.

Thanks in advance

Hello

The HARD drive is listed in the BIOS?
To access the press F2 BIOS button while you turn the device on/off.

If the HARD drive is not listed on the first page of the BIOS, then the HARD drive failed and need to replace the HARD drive... I hope that you created the recovery media in the past in order to reinstall the system on new HARD drive.

  • How to install Win 8 on Satellite C850 after HARD drive failure?

    I have a PC repair business and a customer gave me a portable Satellite C850-1 kN which took a catastrophic hard disk failure (just clicking from the road).

    I replaced the hard drive and tried to boot from a DVD 8 Windows, changing the order of startup in the bios, however, it still gives an error message "no boot device."

    I see no way to turn off boot UEFI, it appears grayed out in the configuration of the bios.

    How can I reinstall Windows on this laptop?

    First, you must know that the (CSM/UEFI mode) parameter must be changed if you want to install the system supported UEFI not (Win 7 and higher).
    Win 8 and 8.1 Win are UEFI capable systems and you should be able to use the option to UEFI mode.

    What about the secure boot option?
    Have you found and have you tried to disable this option?

    If these details are not, isn't HARD drive recognized.

    This message appears if the boot device is not found. There must be a problem with the HARD drive.
    Open the BIOS settings and check it please if the HARD drive is listed and recognized correctly.

  • Satellite C850 - suspected hard drive failure

    I have a Toshiba C850 15.6 inch 750GB 8 GB. It's a little more than two years. At the start, it displays the automatic repair of message preparation followed quickly diagnose your PC. Eventualy followed in another message, C drive repair. This about 6 hours total (schedules for each message varies). After this, another message appears on a blue background indicating
    your PC is not started correctly.
    Tap on restart to reboot your PC which can sometimes solve the problem. Alternatively, you can press options to try other options to fix your PC

    Each option translates the screen fading, but leaving the original message in the background for 2 hours or more
    This happens even if you try to start in safe mode or recovery discs.

    Please note I am very far from being a computer expert, but have family who may be able to help me while 200 miles away so maybe wait a while.

    I got the same message of diagnostic Pc and it takes ages to complete. I don't really know why, but Windows 8 tends to have its problems, if that's what you have. Mine is over 2 years old and it might freeze or run slowly. In the end, I gave my laptop a slap and it ruined the entire hard drive. I just buy a new hard drive and try to figure out how to get Windows installed again. So basically if your computer is tempramental, I would back up data as soon as possible. This is the error that I did not do. Then think about buying a new hard drive.

    I have absolutely no idea what it means, and I use never no ethernet cable because I have a Wi - Fi connection, but he is relentless. I went through F2 and F12 and all settings are perfectly fine. Order of the BIOS is fine with the HARD disc on top.

    What should I do?
    Best regards

    Hey Buddy,

    If you have tested the HARD drive in a box of another and external HARD drive laptop without success the case is clear: the HARD drive needs to be replaced because it s defective!

    I can understand that you want to recover your data, but what do you do if you are not able to access? In this case you need assistance, a special data recovery lab, but it is not cheap and costs hundreds of dollars.

    I m wondering that you don't have a backup. Have you never tried to do it or thought it would be useful?

    Last but not least a new HARD drive can be ordered at a service provider authorized in your country or each computer store. Satellite L300 supports SATA 2.5 hard drives.

  • Satellite L30-149-PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable of

    Hello!

    My Toshiba Satellite L30-149 with the PSL35E-002002NS model number is equipped with a MK4032GSX drive HARD 40 GB, Bios V 1.90 and HP Windows XP Home edition.

    IT stops during startup with the text.

    For Realtek RTL8139 (x) /8130/ 810 x PCI Fast Ethernet Controller V2.13 (020326), PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable PXE - M0F: exit ROM PXE, operating system not found.

    This occurs even if the disc is removed and seq. boot is changed so it should search the CD/DVD and even though the power and the battery has been disconnected for 15 minutes. If the power were during 20 hours them lights upward by DVD for a short so that at the next startup, but not if the power was turned off for a few minutes.

    Before he died, he showed the blue screen several times with diskerrors in the event log, and I was able to run/CHKDSK without errors a few times.

    Please advice how to reset the Fast Ethernet controller, not sure that a HDD defective only can cause the fault of I m.

    Thnx in advance

    Hello

    I think that this is related to failure of HARD drive or lack of OS on the HARD drive.
    Is this message PXE ONLY appears if the portable computer is trying to boot from LAN.

    Means either the LAN was chosen in the BIOS as first boot device or operating system is not found on the HARD drive and so the BIOS automatically goes to the local network.

    So I recommend this audit in the worst case you will need to check if the new HARD drive would solve this

  • Satellite Pro L10 - I can't install Win XP - PXE - E61:Media test failure

    Hello

    I was wondering if any1 can help just bought a 2nd hand toshiba satellite computer laptop pro L10
    Model - PSL15E-00L0179I

    It has been wiped and when I charged it up it has developed in DOS, but won't let you enter any command all it says is -.

    PXE-check the cable of E61:Media test failure
    PXE - M0F: Exit PXE ROM

    If you press a key, she re - just starting, I loaded my XP installation disc but it will not auto run. You are able to F2 at startup but can't seem to find something that will help you use the drive.

    Any info is greatly appreciated and I have limited computer technical knowledge so just as easy to understand as possible thank you

    Hello

    PXE - E61:Media test failed is displayed because the laptop is trying to boot from LAN.
    This can happen because the LAN option has been fixed in the first start position in the BIOS or because the phone didn t find any other sources bootable.

    In many cases, this can happen because the HARD drive was not recognized.
    Check if the HARD drive is visible in the BIOS must include details of the HARD drive in the BIOS
    If this isn't the case, then the HARD drive is unavailable due to hardware problem.

    It would also be possible that your CD/DVD drive cannot read the disc, and so the laptop can not boot from the disc.

    All these questions can be releated to hardware failure... ODD or HDD, or both...

  • Satellite A30 - PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of

    Hello

    I got a Satellite A30-064 as gift. The guy who gave it to me, said its broken. I checked the forum startup error message:

    + PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable PXE - M0F: exit PXE ROM +

    I can boot in the BIOS, change the HARD drive. The two old or new are properly recognized in the BIOS. Boot order is correct (not LAN).

    I have to give it to the recycling station? I don't not want to was wrong, it seems to me the error which is left is on the motherboard. Would this be a machine "Oops, I spilled my coffee on the keyboard?

    Has anyone managed to get rid of a similar problem?

    Usually this error message appears because the laptop tries to start from LAN because she doesn t recognize other bootable devices like ODD or HARD disk.

    Usually if the HARD drive would be recognized then this message PXE - E61 appears.

    What happens if you insert a bootable CD and press the C key immediately after starting the laptop?
    The C button should allow booting from ODD.

    Please check this!

  • Satellite C660 - 10 d Operating System not found PXE - E61: Media test failure

    I have a Satellite C660 - 10 d, which is part of the 1 year warranty which has suddenly decided it won't start and makes a strange noise that sounds mechanical.

    I tried the options F2 & F11 at startup, but I always return to the same messages some options I try:

    Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller v1.23 (28/07/10)
    PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of
    PXE - M0F: Exit PXE ROM
    Operating system not found.

    I can't go beyond that and get the laptop doesn't work, which leads to my second problem.

    It is under warranty so I thought I would sign in for repair. The serial number is recognized in the section Product Support My. But when I try to enter in the repair section, it is said

    ERROR: serial not valid number.
    Please check and try again.
    Then gives a number to call which only works weekdays.

    So, I have what appears to be a broken laptop that I can currently connect to repair.
    If you are able to help with one of these problems, it would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    I'm quite sure that the problem is related to the defective HARD drive.
    This would also explain the mechanical noise when starting.

    PXE - E61: Media test failure appears as the laptop attempts to boot from LAN.
    Why? Because the disk HARD could not be found and the CD/DVD drive does not contain a startup disk.

    So the BIOS switched to LAN

    This is why replacement of HARD drive should help you with this problem.
    If the warranty is valid, get in touch with a local ASP in your country. Maybe you could get a HARD disk which could be replaced easily

  • Satellite C660D - media failure PXE - E61: media test failure, check cable of

    Hello

    hope I can help with this problem.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite C660D, which I bought in 2011 and he has recently started to act, whenever I try to pass on it tells me

    Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller series V2.38 (24/12/10)
    PXE - E61: media test failure, check cable.
    PXE - MOF: Exit PXE ROM
    Operating system not found

    This problem started when I tried to install the new operating system (Win 7 32 bit) on my hard drive of the windows partition, this instillation was a success, and I even managed to create a user profile after installation.

    However, as soon as I logged on to the computer says me he wants to get back out to check my windows and it did it automatically and since then he never restart and tells me that this media test failure error.

    I checked my hard drive if that work by connecting it as external on another computer and its still fine with everything that always there, I deleted and reintroduced it a couple of times, but always the media test failure still occur, I even tried to change the sequence of start several times, including the default settings , but the problem still persists.

    I have two laptops of the same type and both of them give me the same problems, I am running out of ideas on how to fix this problem any help will be much appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hello
    This message means that the system was not found on the HARD drive and the next boot device was LAN. But unit was not able to boot from LAN and so this PXE error appeared.

    You said that the HARD drive is OK. Well, what is the status of the HARD drive in the BIOS?
    HDD is recognized correctly in the BIOS on the first page of the BIOS?

    Where it is, you should try to reinstall the system once more.
    In the case of the disk HARD isn't visible in the BIOS, you must replace it.

    PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of

    I have not received a boot with the portable drive... Can someone give me some advice on what I should do next?

    Alan

    Hello

    The message appears because the laptop trying to boot from LAN.
    Why?
    The laptop cannot find the boot device
    I think that your HARD drive is dead or the master boot record may be damage.

    To resolve this issue, you must install the system again probably you need to replace the HARD drive first and then you will need to install new windows.

    If you have no recovery disk, see this page:

  • Satellite C660D-124 - PXE - E61 media test failure

    Hi all

    This is my first post on your forum.
    I know a little bit to move the laptop.
    I have a Satellite C660D-124
    I was playing music when he decided to stop and I got this error message.
    PXE - E61 media test failure.

    what I've done so far;

    (1) battery removed, removed HDD.
    replace drive HARD and battery. no change in error.

    (2) joined in setting up F2, noticed the HDD\SDD says NOT PRESENT.
    Scrolls to the start menu that looks like this...
    HARD DRIVE
    CD/DVD
    FLOPPY DRIVE
    LAN
    down the HARD drive and back up and saved on exit without change by mistake

    (3) when I go peripheral to the F12 boot boot, the boot menu reads as follows;
    CD/DVD - HL - DT - ST DVDRAM GT 30N
    REALTEK LAN PXE B03 DOO

    There is no DISC in the start menu, is there?

    I would have appreciated your advice and your expertise on this matter and I hope that my h/dd is not dead
    see you soon

    Hello

    Your HARD drive is defective and must be replaced.
    I m sure about it because the HARD disk does not appear in the BIOS. But it should.

    Any help would be appreciated

    Thanx

    Hello

    For me, it looks like a malfunction of the HARD drive and so the BIOS can not find a bootable device and goes to the last possible bootable option which is LAN.

    The exclamation mark in front of the HARD drive indicates that there is a problem with the HARD drive so I think you need to replace the HARD drive and you need to reinstall the system.

    PS: What laptop do you have exactly?
