Satellite C870-12F - shaded BIOS settings

Recently, I noticed that I can not change the settings in the BIOS more, almost all of the settings are grayed out. I don't know when it happened, perhaps after update BIOS version 1.6 but it could also happened after the upgrade to Windows 8. I'm not sure. I know that it was ok before.

What I've noticed, is that in the post-test (where you can use F2) on the lower right side of the screen there is a sort of button / stop Logo I ever noticed before.

Efforts to push some buttons falied to change settings in the BIOS.
Hope someone can help out.
Thank you...

Have you enabled Fast Boot in the BIOS?
Try disabling this also in BIOS trying to define the default settings.
I remember in the BIOS you will need to press F9 to get default and save it by pressing F10

  • Satellite C870-12F - FN Swapping keys and function keys

    I just bought my Satellite C870-12F and I noticed the only work of function keys (F1, F2 etc) when you use the Fn key, I was wondering if I can 'swap' them, while I have to press Fn first and then to increase brightness, for example.

    I'm used to having the keys of F or primary, without an extra key to activate.

    As far as I know, you cannot change anything.

  • Re: Satellite C850 and UEFI BIOS settings

    I have laptop Satellite C850 - 1 2 with Windows 8.1

    When I boot, it shows a toshiba logo, not the original flag 8 Windows. It is not so much a problem, but I can't change because the parameter is blocked within the parameters of the UEFI. How can I change this?

    I already tried to change through the windows in different ways, but each time it will change the UEFI!

    Help?

    To be honest I don't know what to do, you mean with blocked settings, but it can be changed in the BIOS settings.
    What you need is to make complete OS stop http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2B03EY0002R01.htm and after having done that, you can restart the laptop and enter the BIOS (try F12) settings and then you can change all the settings of the BIOS.

  • Satellite C870-12F - problems after BSOD

    Hello

    How is that even possible...

    There are two possible reasons why BSODS happen.

    (1) serious software problem
    (2) hardware problem / fault

    In the case of point 1) system recovery / laptop should solve this problem. But it doesn't have t
    So, I think that, in your case, the material started to malfunction.

    You want to know what part might not work.
    Well, I think that these details can be provided only by an engineer who has already checked the aircraft and ran some diagnostic software.

    In my opinion its HARD drive problem isn't. If something's HARD drive, unit turns on properly but would not boot the system.
    Possible hardware parts that could be affected are: module of RAM or the motherboard.

    RAM problems can be solved easily in replacement of the module, but for motherboard problems, the fix for laptop can be very expensive in case the warranty isn't valid.

  • Satellite R830: How do the BIOS settings password protected?

    Hi all

    I installed a software protection against theft in my Satellite R830, but he suggested that I adjust the settings in the BIOS so that it will start only from the hard drive, and to make sure that no one else can modify it (if it is stolen), the BIOS settings are protected by Word.

    Can someone tell me how to access the BIOS at startup settings upward?

    Hello

    You can set the BIOS settings by setting the BIOS password.
    If someone would like to change the BIOS settings, the password of the BIOS would be necessary.
