    First of all, you should check if the HARD drive has been recognized in the BIOS.
    To access the BIOS, you will need to click on the "F2" because this laptop seems to use Phoenix BIOS.
    Check the HARD drive was chosen first in the boot order.

    To test a HARD drive, you could also remove it and he could connect as an external USB for a second PC.

    But I see you n t have much experience with these procedures, and therefore, it would be advisable to ask a technician for assistance.

  • My Satellite C855-10Z wouldn't turn on

    Hello

    I came to the work and my knees don't turn upward. I had left the charger plugged into the wall, but not plugged into the laptop. The laptop ran out of battery during the day because it was not supported. As expected, it won't turn and so I plugged in the charger. A red light nothing happened - flashed temporarily on the laptop when I pressed the button. I tried different Sockets and waited a day, but it still does not work.

    What do you think that could be the problem? It's likely the charger or the laptop?

    I was looking to buy a replacement AC adapter (input voltage: AC adapter to auto-detection (100/240 V) for worldwide use integer; output voltage: 19 V, output current: 3.42 A) but could not find one online. Some of those recommended for the laptop model I (Toshiba Satellite C855-10Z) or at least that they do not have the same appearance. Those on sale do not seem to have the cable connecting the charger to the socket.

    Thank you very much

    Hi Susan
    It is not easy to say what the problem is here. Disconnect the power and remove the battery. After doing this press the power for about 20 seconds. Leave the laptop for a while and try to start Notepad using the power supply only.

    What happens when you do this?
    By the way: is guaranteed still valid?

    Hello

    You are able to access the advanced boot menu by pressing F8 while turning on the unit?

    If you are able to do so, you should try to start the computer using one of the advanced options available in the start menu.

    You can try to start the laptop computer using the last known good configuration or you can try to repair the system by automatically selecting the repair my computer option, you can try to start the machine in safe mode to access important data on the HARD drive.

    Finally (after data backup) I would recommend to recover the laptop using the Toshiba recovery media

  • Satellite C855-1st wont even boot BIOS

    Hi guys I really could do with some help.

    I have a toshiba satellite c855-1st. I came to him today and it wouldn't start at all.
    When I hit the power button I get a white light solid on the front but nothing happened.

    I googled my problem and I tried all the "remove the battery, hold power 60 seconds, try new etc etc' advice, no plan for me.

    So I decided to demolish everything and managed to get the system tries to boot (hdd light lights, fans spin, display lights etc.) but I just get a black screen for 30secs then it stops. Ive tried to remove the cmos battery, remove, Exchange and alternate the 2 ram sticks but still no joy.

    When I put back it together but it goes back to just the white led (no fans etc.). I discovered that when I unplug the keyboard, then it will try to start but fail after 30secs. It does not seem to be still "ad".

    I find the keyboard very strange thing and the only thing preventing me from believing that my motherboard is dead...

    can someone please shed some light on this for me. Thank you

    .. .but I just get a black screen for 30secs then it stops. Ive tried to remove the cmos battery, remove, Exchange and alternate 2 ram sticks but still no joy
    .. .thing keeps me from believing that my motherboard is dead...

    I'm afraid you might have reason... it's just my personal opinion, but if the laptop does not start using new, good work RAM modules, then the motherboard could be the troublemaker...

  • Satellite C855-1U7 - activity strange fan while playing games

    Hello

    I played fifa14 for a long time, my laptop had the necessarily system requirements to play and my bios is the last, often my fan started working for many, up to 85% and 74ÂșC cpu temperature, it is normal because of the game, but in some time the fan stops and stops again and restart, restarts again until the game begins to become slowly.

    I already have the game of repair and find viruses, but nothing wrong.

    Pc health monitor indicates that everything is ok with cpu, I also have an external cooler with 2 fans.

    Can someone help me with this?

    Thank you to

    Satellite C855-1U7

    Hello
    Fan activity depends on the temperature inside the laptop.
    But of course the activity described fan (, also, on, off) seems really odd to me.
    However, there are not a lot of options that could be controlled.

    First of all the details of fan activity and the information is stored in the table fan. Table fan is part of the BIOS.
    You could try the BIOS to the default settings and you might check if BIOS can be updated using the new version of BIOS (if available).

    I think you can also try to reduce the CPU performance changing settings in the Windows power options.

    I m wondering why you use external cooling pad?
    It is essential for cooling and the laptop overheating without the use of this external cooling pad?

  • Satellite C855-12N and Ubuntu 12.04 - stop questions

    Hello

    I have Toshiba Satellite C855-12N with new installed Ubuntu 12.04. My problem stops the system when the power adapter is connected. System stops, but after 3 seconds starts automatically again. Such a problem does not exist when the computer only works with the battery with the AC adapter / CC disconnected.
    I removed the battery from the computer, and this problem when the adapter is connected also exist.

    In addition, just for your information, keyboard is not working properly, it seems that the keyboard has been damaged for example when pulling 'a' letter 'q' appears, some keys don't work. Now I use only the USB keyboard. I would like to change the keyboard for the new service, but if there are other possible damage (. e.g. card mother AC adapter, connection, etc.) more serious problems can occur. Could you give me some advice how recognize the source of damages?

  • Stack Bluetooth can not be installed properly on Satellite C855 - 29M

    Hello

    I just reinstalled Win 7 on my Satellite C855 - 29 M and have installed the downloaded drivers on the Toshiba site, which worked well. I had an unknown device in Device Manager that I discovered was because I needed to install the bluetooth stack.

    I downloaded and installed bfdp-20130924160827, then bltstk 20130924152252, as suggested on these forums, but after restarting the laptop, it will load Windows, then restart, then asks to use repair or start windows normally.

    None of these options worked so I have to use F8 know last good config that worked and when the laptop started to the top there was a message about the bluetooth stack with a missing file. I uninstalled battery bluetooth redownloaded and reinstalled but it's same thing.

    Any ideas guys?

    To be honest I don't know what the problem is here and what exactly did you do.
    I checked the download page on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp and the fact is that your laptop is fully supported for Win7 64 bit so all necessary drivers, tools and utilities are ready for download from Toshiba.

    Everything that you have done is good and all you can do is remove preinstalled components BT system, and after restarting the laptop, try to install again.

  • Satellite C855 - low RTC battery

    Bought a brand new Satellite C855 7 months, now get a RTC battery low warning, every time I start, have to reset the date and time. The laptop battery says fully charged, but if I unplug the portable charger will turn off.

    > The laptop battery says fully charged, but if I unplug the portable charger will turn off.

    This means that the main battery is empty and is probably damaged.
    Empty main battery would affect the RTC battery too. So I think that you need to replace the main battery first and then the RTC battery for a longer period of time while the mobile computer is turned on.

    The laptop seems to be covered by the warranty (if its 7 months) so the battery must be replaced in warranty conditions.

  • Satellite C855 - white screen after BIOS update

    Hello

    I am a beginner user,
    I have Satellite C855
    Yesterday, I downloaded a 'update BIOS"that was sent to my computer.
    Since that my screen is blank, there is a hum in the background.

    I have a recovery back up on my external hard drive, but of course, the screen is blank so I don't know how the product.

    I think I must have downloaded a model or the update was not compatible.

    Hello

    White screen do you mean that nothing appears on the screen?
    You see the start screen of Toshiba, or if you are able to access the BIOS?

    Where this is not possible, try this:
    Disconnect the power adapter, remove the battery.
    Press and hold the power button for about 30 seconds.
    Then connect the two parts (batteries and AC adapter) for the laptop and try to turn on the unit.

    In case this would not solve the problem of the laptop, I'm scared of m the BIOS update was not completed successfully and I think that only authorized Toshiba service provider would be able to help you.

  • Compatible motherboards for Satellite C855

    Hello

    I own a Toshiba Satellite C855 - 12K, I've owned for about 3 years, but 2 weeks ago I accidentally damaged the motherboard, while I was cleaning the computer, at first I thought it was the map screen or video that is broken, because it was weird (cutting, 20 seconds after loading desktop, colorful pixel, thin lines across the entire screen) but after 5 times of commissioning , disabling display, I left alone.
    The next day it would not start at all, so I sent it to a really good computer technician, who called me the next day, saying that the motherboard is dead, and that he needs a new.

    When I was cleaning it, I watched a video on youtube, which shows how to open Toshiba Satellite C855-12J or something, (not the C855 - 12K, I) but I noticed that the chassis is the same, the size of the motherboard is the same. That's why I'd love to not put a motherboard C855 - 12K in my C855 - 12K, but something more powerful, with more performance, because I want to play newer games, but I don't want to sell my C855 and buy a new computer, I would upgrade this computer instead.

    So, there are motherboards for C855, who have a better CPU / GPU that C855 - 12 K, if there are, could you show me a list of computers that come with them? Maybe there are motherboards from other computers Toshiba, that match?

    Thanks in advance.

    Because of the design specific notebooks are specific products and, in general, some radical physical upgrades are not possible. Each hardware platform has some cooling system designed for optimal to protect equipment.

    Each laptop model also has specific design and different ports placed at different locations.
    For example, Satellite C855 was offered with 6 different hardware platforms. With other words, with 6 different motherboards that may have different hardware (CPU, GPU, WLAN, BT) but also other ports on the left and right.

    Each authorized Toshiba, but also independent repair shops for laptop, will exchange defective motherboard with the same motherboard model. Some little compatible mothers are not available.

    Motherboard is very expensive, so you need to check the price and see if it's worth paying a lot of money to get it repaired. Four years ago my A300 was electro shock by connecting the external USB device. The repair was extremely expensive, so I sold it on eBay for spares and bought again a Satellite P500.

  • Lost the disk for recovery of Windows 8 for Satellite C855 1v9

    Hello

    I bought a new laptop (toshiba satellite) 8 original windows pre-installed,
    However, I wanted to repartition my hard drive and without warning I deleted the recovery partition, therefore, the laptop could no longer starts.

    So I asked a professional if he could get my laptop to its original factory condition as it was when I bought it (with 8 pre-installed... original windows) in order to sell it later and he told me that it is impossible since I do not have the recovery disk, and the only way to make it work is by installing windows 7.

    I have lack of knowledge in it staff that's why, I haven't had not to make a copy of a recovery disk.

    Now, as I intend to sell my laptop, I was wondering if there is a possible way to sell me the recovery disk that allow me to back up my laptop to its factory condition (with original windows 8 pre-installed and pre-loaded software of course), and the estimated total costs that I pay.
    PS:

  • Wireless on Satellite C855 issue

    Hello

    I bought new Toshiba Satellite C855-1. but the light for bluetooth is always orange. Means that bluetooth is not functional or something else? I also installed drivers on the computer.

    If I use the keys FN + F12 the led turn off, but if I turn it on it is allway orange. Does this mean that it does not work?
    Can I send to store, to fix it or what?

    Help please

    I ve checked specification for this model of laptop and it was delivered without BONES. I hope that you have installed the OS and all the drivers, tools and utilities correctly.
    Do you have problems in general?
    In Device Manager all recognized and listed correctly?

    Back to your question: the WLAN led is activated when WLAN or BT is in use. I put t know what options are listed when you use FN + F12 but you should be able to use only WLAN, WLAN and BT or disable both devices.

    Stack of BT to start you should see also BT icon in the taskbar. It changes color when BT is ON or OFF. Test a little bit to see how it works exactly.

  • Satellite C855 - 2 FG is not booting UEFI

    Hello world!

    I would ask that the laptop Toshiba Satellite C855-2 FG cannot start mode UEFI? Or he will be put in a new update of the BIOS?

    Before ask you, there no a favourable UEFI or secure boot option in the BIOS.

    Thanks for the replies!

    If the BIOS does not include UEFI or the secure boot option, then the changes are unnecessary.
    You should be able to start or install windows systems (Win 7, Win 8.1, etc.) without making any changes in the BIOS.

  • Satellite C855-1john - some keys are dead

    Satellite C855-1Jn

    A key is dead on my keyboard, it is not a real problem, except to enter

    My computer is off when the battery is low, and now I'm stuck in recovery menu: I have two choices, but I need to necessarily validate with the Enter key, there is no automatic choice after awhile and keyboard plugged into a usb port does not.
    I can't use the key I reassigned it does not take into account, and I can't, in the F2 menu, change the order of starting device to add the USB keyboard, because I need to confirm with "enter".

    I don't know what I can do to move this menu

    In the case where the same issue is not using external USB keyboard, the main problem must be linked to the fault of the internal keyboard and to fix it, the internal keyboard needs to be replaced.
