Satellite L - system of start-up failure and no DRIVE in the BIOS

HI all, my laptop for some reason any does not seem to think he has a hard drive installed, he said nothing in the BIOS for hard drive.

I made the mistake of not to make recovery disks.

Someone has an idea of what I can do to get this working again?

Thank you

Hello

Looks like your HARD drive is defective because the BIOS doesn't recognize.

I think you need to replace the HARD drive and reinstall Windows using the Microsoft installation disc. All the drivers and tools that you can download on the Toshiba site:

  • Satellite P300-h-13: stops, restarts itself and then freezes in the BIOS

    Hello

    I have a laptop TOSHIBA SATELITE P300-h-13.
    When I turn it on, it starts before blocking immediately down and then it restarts itself (twice).

    Then it freezes in THOSHIBA default start screen.
    I can't access BIOS (says it charges but nothing happens).

    If I press the ESC key, I got a screen saying that the processor is detected and it gives me the ability to L2 cache, it says the RAM passed and then it indicates that the Bios system & video are overshadowed.

    I tried without the battery, but it doesn't change anything.

    Please help me solve this problem on.
    Thank you!

    Hello

    I don't know why this is happening and it's really strange question that should not happen on the new laptop.
    In such situations, you can simply try standard measures and see if it will work properly again.

    By the way: how old is your laptop? Have you noticed this behavior from the first day?

    In any case, try to enter in the BIOS somehow and set it to default settings. try to enter Advanced boot options using F8 at the start and check if the installation of operating system work (during the first backup of data, if possible).

    If nothing helps I would recommend not to do anything, but contact the nearest authorized service provider. Let them check your laptop computer and, if necessary, repair. Warranty will cover all costs.

    Hi brandon1980,

    I recommend you contact your computer manufacturer for assistance. The manufacturer would be able to give details about the BIOS (Basic Input Output System) and find out if this feature can be disabled.

  • Satellite R630 - second HDD recognized as optical drive in the BIOS

    I own a Toshiba R630 and recently replaced the original disc with a Crucial SSDS with improved performance. I use the old Hitachi drive in an external enclosure via eSATA trouble-free port, but this configuration requires both port eSata/USB combo and a second USB just for power, so I bought a cart of 9.5 mm to put the disc on DVD rentals.

    Today I went ahead. Physically, everything goes well (apart from the fact that I had to remove the back cover, more than 25 screws; I took the opportunity to clean the fan) but when I turned on the computer and BIOS the Hitachi drive is recognized as an optical drive!

    You can see an image here:

    After that I could get into Windows 7 (64), disk management recognizes it as a disk, but is unable to initialize. After restarting the computer, I can't get Windows anymore, because it directly goes to the recovery mode.

    Any help would be appreciated! Is it possible to do the BIOS to recognize the second disk as a hard drive?

    Carlos

    + The message was edited: faulty link has been removed.

    First I would recommend you to check the boot device order.
    No doubt the STRANGE was set first boot device and portable tries to boot from the HARD drive that is connected to the controller of the STRANGE.
    If this does not work, delete the old HDD Hitachi, reset the default BIOS and try to start once more.

    To be honest I'm not quite sure if the BIOS would support such configuration Mr. I mean not all laptops can be upgraded with a 2nd HDD and in many cases, the BIOS would bear not the HDD installed in the ODD Bay so this configuration can cause problems.

  • Satellite L50 - B - 2 8 - new SSD is not recognized in the BIOS settings

    Hello

    I just bought a new laptop Toshiba Satellite L50 - B - 2-8 and I also bought Samsung SSD 850 evo 250 GB.
    When I try to install the SSD drive rather my drive HARD, the BIOS show 'none' in the category of SSD/HDD (BIOS not recognize the SSD).

    Please help me.
    My bios version is: 2.00
    someone told me that I have to downgrade my version of BIOS to 1.2V and then the BIOS recognize the SSD drive, so perhaps someone here can send me a download link for version 1.2 of my model L50 - B - 2-8.
    Thank you

    someone told me that I have to downgrade my version of BIOS to 1.2V

    And who? I mean you are sure that this person was right?
    From my point of view of the few there is no reason why beginning version BIOS should recognize the SSD and the latest version of the BIOS is not...

    But BIOS v1.2 for series Satellite L50 - B - 2 8 PSKTQE there is no v2.0 (at this time) is the latest version and previous versions of BIOS are not available for this series.

    Also, I guess you must slimply check different SSD drive... it might be possible that the other SSD drive would be recognized correctly.

    By the way: I am owner of Evo 850 SSD drive and as I remember, I had to update the firmware of the SSD drive to use it correctly in my other laptop (not the Toshiba device)

  • L450 blocked to 0.77 GHz processor when it is on battery and can not downgrade the BIOS

    Hello

    It seems that the CPU of my L450 is blocked to 0.77 GHz speed when it is running on battery power and no matter how heavy the load, the CPU speed does not fit on the rise, unless I plug in the AC power cord.

    This makes the laptop a bit useless on the battery when you do something time CPU.

    This seems to be the unusual question, based on the quick searchand possibly related to the BIOS. I would try to downgrade from 1.16-> 1.15 or 1.12, but I always get the error "Failed to secure authentication of Flash", after you run the flash program and rebooted (when flashing the BIOS should start).

    I turned off in the BIOS the option 'Prevention of RollBack Secure' settings, so I guess that's not the question for not having to downshift.

    Does anyone else have this problem (with the speed of the CPU limitation or decommissioning of the BIOS)?

    I tried to change options in plan powers the window, like 'The Maximum processor state', 'Intel CCMP energy efficiency Settings. "

    I am running Windows 10, if any relevant information.

    OK, think about it.

    The fix was to disconnect the battery and the power cord for one minute. After that, the CPU is scaling its speed again normally.

    Good thing that this laptop model has a removable battery, I guess...

    I'd like to, I would have thought this before going through the demotion to 8.1 Windows, since the I suspected it could be a bug with Windows 10 or some of its pilots.

    I think that this problem was caused by my recent update BIOS of 1.12 to 1.16, but it's really just a guess.

    I have a HP DV7 7332ea want. I recently put a San Disk Extreme 2 120 GB SSD as drive and put the HARD drive in the Bay secondary. I installed Win 8.1 clean and everything works well. I then worked my through the various settings required in the operating system for one SSD maximize its usefulness as travel page file on the HARD drive, deleting hibernation, switching to restore in Control Panel and the last was to change registry settings to activate the DIANE and select it in the bios. However, the "F2" for this model Envy Bios has no option for IDE or DIANE. What this means and am I actually losing any ability to form my SSD if DIANE is not enabled?

    Hello:

    The contoller drive in your model can be set to RAID and that cannot be changed.

    You can check that the speed control is set to RAID if you go to Device Manager and see a category of storage controllers.

    Click to expand this category and you will see a controller RAID SATA Intel that are listed there.

    As long as you have installed the driver Intel RST that you'll TRIM full support for your SSD in RAID mode and you should ignore all the warnings on the drive doesn't work is not in AHCI mode.

    Take a look at this thread for more info...

  • Satellite L550 - system slow start

    Hi people!

    Got a new Satellite L550 running Vista 32 - bit, everything seems fine except for a few things on this machine that goes like this:

    1 system restore is one hell of a long process I have ever met so far-time is gasoline and 17 GB of restore disks its really a whopper!
    2. If you have any trouble with the 'text leap' (when entering) so I have. Sound the Alps Touchpad I found must be configured (by disabling the tapping) that's if you can find the tab 'Advanced' in the properties of the mouse
    3. I tweaked my startup programs, but this machine, of course, happens to a slow start. Any help here

    Otherwise a pleasure to have abandoned another manufacturing in favor of elegant, intelligent Toshiba laptop and hopes that its evidence switch!

    Hello

    I had a problem of cursor jump as well, but that was my mistake... I touched the touchpad accidentally during typing...
    I could solve this problem by disabling the touch pad using the FN + F9 key combination.

    PS; You have the latest version of the BIOS? Isn't it? Then update.

    I beg u guyz help me pls pls
    THX

    Hi Timothy,.

    Two beeps indicate that this notebook missed you during its initial loading of the POST and BIOS. This is the point where your system runs a self test on its connected devices before loading the operating system.

    Without other diagnoses, it will be difficult to say exactly what may be the problem and you will need to return the device to a service that is authorized for the investigation under the guarantee.

    Kind regards

  • System Restore op after failure of HARD drive and replacement

    Hello

    I have an old laptop dv9000 with XPPro factory installed SP2, since upgraded to SP3. The hard drive failed (Seagate 80Gig). I checked with the test of the bios Setup, he said "fail" and I checked by booting from the windows installation disc CD player. He said, not found hard drive. SO, I bought a disc bytes of more 1 t (same mfr Seagate, same 5400 RPM) and installed. I have a backup network (Seagate Black armor) drive and I was able to restore the last backup. The booted cd drive the recovery disc for this program, the hard drive light blinking and it seemed to be something for 3 hours, then told it was full.

    But the new drive does not start. I've read on this forum and of the joint recommendation was to use the system provided with the laptop recovery disks. I dug through the boxes in the garage and have found the system recovery discs and my 14 cd makes system restore. :-) makes to keep unwanted sometimes. But I tried the system recovery disk and it will not start in the cd player. I get a white screen with the cursor in the left flashing top. I went back to try the recovery of Seagate disk, and now it will not start either. I tried to remove the new HARD drive. with or without a cd in the player it displays the message "No Op sysytem found." SO I think that something touched the CDdrive. But it is interesting with the blinking cursor will restart the machine, then perhaps a part of the op system is loaded.

    It is an old machine, the old system of the op. I shopped Hp store and only Windows8 available now. SO I am forced either on the cutting edge with all new bugs and learning curve, or I'm trying to get this old lady will machine. Other things I've linked, hard reset, restore the default bios.

    Ideas that you may have will be appreciated.

    Hello

    The laptop is back running with the new hard drive, Yay! and a new cd player.

    Here's what he had to, for anyone who has ever has the same problem:

    The CD player was bad. The nearest local supplier on the list for assistance parts hp gave me was a suitable replacement. I installed, and the system restore disc started and ran immediately.  I decided to check and see if the windows install disc would go and restore the sytem since I thought that I had already restored the entire C: partition. He started, but did not find the hard drive. He gave an eror message that does no drive found.  I went to the hp system restore disc and running. It took several hours reformatted the drive (by removing everything I'd put) and rebooted several times. Eventually, he came with a windows desktop computer. This is the factory installed there are over 5 years old. I installed the Seagate backup software and running. He seemed to have more options running in windows he did directly from the boot cd. One of the options was to restore the MBR. I had to find out what it was, Master Boot Record. I thought that it should be restored. The full restoration of the backup process C: took another few hours, but he finished and gave a message of the operation successfully.

    Then I rebooted and got windows, connected and got my office logon screen as it was at the time of the backup. Success.

    In the future, I'll watch that restore MBR, maybe it's there, and I missed it the first time. I have a slight nagging worry that maybe something else caused both drives to fail almost at the same time. But I'm not going to fuss with it. I hope that the machine works well for a little longer.

    Thanks to those who have tried to help.

  • Need to do a system restore. When the computer starts and I cannot access the BIOS menu - help please... (WinXPSP3)

    I need to change the boot order, so the installation CD starts first-I can't enter the Bios at Startup Menu.

    It's a HP Pavilion that says F1 is supposed to allow me to access the menu of the BIOS at startup.  I also tried:

    Tip There are other keys that provide access to the BIOS. They include the following:

    o F1

    o F2

    o F10

    o, CTRL + ENTER

    o ALT + ENTER

    o, CTRL + ALT + ESC

    o, CTRL + ALT + INSERT

    And kay LED does not work either.  It's Windows XP - 32 bit home.

    Service Pack 3 is installed - SpySweeper is anti-virus and using the Windows Firewall.  This computer were of Trojan horses (40) and finally the browser was re-directed.

    Thanks for any help.

    It shud be a Hp tool installedon your system with which you can edit boot options even after logging on to XP.

    Its something like HP or Credential Manager protection tools.

  • Desktop Windows 7 does not start in windows and loops to fix the screen

    You have a problem!  HP mdl 3000mt-4 GB-150 GB hard drive-windows 7-32 bit.  These units have worked without problem for 2 years.  We have over 300 units on the line.  We have now 4 units with the same question.  This started with one and over a period of a week don't appear on other units.  At startup, units go to the window of recovery of windows and loop at startup then the window of recovery again.  We did all of the normal stuff.  1 changed all the addons - Ko / monitor / mouse.  2. change of power.  3 removed hd and replaced by unit of work known.  There are still problems.  4. place hd removed in the work unit and had no problem.  5 cards of memory removed and checked everything.  There are still problems.  6 re-created 3 separate times.  Problem remains.  7. Unit will not boot with the floppy in windows 7.  8. called HP and they sent the new motherboard.  Problem remains.  9. yet called HP and after all, they knew to test because they sent the new motherboard.  10. While you wait for the new Board of Directors, we have removed all partitions.  We were then able to load from the disk of windows 7.  Unit started several times.  Re imaged.  Re partitioned on image object.  Problem remains.  We must keep the image and it worked.  -In order to consider: we changed everything except cases, wiring and cd.  We have reinstalled the operating system.  So because of all our tests and replacement we have eliminated the virus, hardware or installion.  We have 396 of these units who work, but if it is a failure of systemmatic, we're in trouble.  We organize Sophos software on the network.  Thanks for the suggestions.

    Dave,

    I appreciate your time and efforts.  I don't really have.  For an update, we just finished installing the new motherboard.  It worked for about 10 minutes, then the video starts shaking and adding "ghosting".  We have checked all the connections and restarted.  It works ok now, but we'll let it run for a while.  We'll see how it holds up!  We now have a machine that dropped.  I'm really happy that we are under guarantee if we have all these tips will!  This most recent one done 5.   Thanks again!

    I just bought a Satellite A215-S4757 a week ago & I tried to divide my hard drive coz, I was only one partion (250 GB) using acronis disk director.

    After that I got the blue screen and now I failed to start and I tried all the options to repair my windows or load in SafeMode to no avail coz it crashes just from the window of microsoft corporation.

    I tried to reinstall windows vista with the cd but still does not!
    pls someone helo me :(

    Hello

    Creator of disc of Acronis does not for me but I know for sure that you can split the capacity of the HARD drive into two partitions with rendering recovery DVDs. Start your laptop with recovery DVDs and check the option to install it.

    You must have a mobile US model. I am from Europe and I don't know about you how it works with the recovery media in the United States, but it should be similar to the European and because of that it must be an option to divide the capacity of the HARD disk with two partitions.

    Please try again. It should work somehow.

  • Satellite U840W - how it works with SSD and HDD drives?

    American,

    I have a U840W which is a beautiful piece of work. He currently heads the Win7.
    It has a hybrid drive system, SSD 32 G and 500G HARD drive. Apparently the 32G acts as a cache.

    I tried to install Linux Mint as a dual boot with Win7.

    Cannot make it work. The installation process (Ubiquity) does not see disks or partitions.
    In a file manager or the GPart-partition manager, I see the HARD drive and all partitions.

    Help me to help the developers of the ubiquity of the problem of access to disks I can get a
    explanation of the way in which the disk system is organized and how it works?

    Any help greatly appreciated, Ian.

    The LINUX community already knows your answer and has led the path to resolve, such as the forum of mint as this thread:

    http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=124299

    Even Microsoft Windows has trouble with setup.exe on disc SSD/HDD hybrid and the Microsoft forums are polluted with their own unverified solutions, some of which are frighteningly superstitious that authoritative to be listed here.

    Ubi, Gnome and KDE are all based on the ability of Grub reliable start the player and so many different distributions don't guarantee reliability.

    I don't have the problem you describe with hybrid hard drives since the installation of 11 Unbuntu.

    Mint is not my first choice with the exception of a bureau of temporary replacement, since the authors are strongly focused on the Office UI, less than the largest army of coders behind Unbuntu and Fedora.

    I'm not criticizing the currency of your choice, but comparing the current Unbuntu boot process could shorten your objective dissection of a startup process of OEM from a manufacturer known for securing lower level specifications.
