Satellite L300 refuses to boot after BIOS update

Hello

L300 my girlfriend was terribly dragged so we decided to format C:. We did it with the XP restore disc that came with it.

Then we had to update the drivers. We started the installation of upgrading the BIOS on Toshiba driver site, disappeared for a while and when we returned, the computer has restarted itself.

He has been stuck in a cycle of the screen "loading windows" and one with a lower bar that says press F2 for this or F12 for this. Tried all the options in the start menu, not even safe mode works.

We have tried to reformat with the previous method, by inserting the XP CD and by holding down the 'C' button when starting. We get the familiar "Windows Setup" screen, and it seems to load all the files from the CD windows installation. But when we come to the installation, we get a blue screen error message. "A problem has been detected and Windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer...". Technical information: * STOP: 0x0000007B (0xF78D254, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

Nothing seems to work, please help! We really want to save the images on the disk D: partition.

Hello

Try to configure the BIOS to the default settings.
You need to access the BIOS, and there you can set the default value.
Please check if you can install the operating system by using the-> AHCI and compatible SATA mode.
If you are using AHCI to include the SATA drivers. If you are using compatibility mode, then SATA drivers are not necessary.

If you want to get access to the HARD disk before you install the operating system in the C partition, then I would recommend to start the laptop using a Windows Live CD WinPE and BartPe.
Both are live CD what don t need an installation, you must boot from this drive only to access to content on the HARD drive.

    Normally, it should be possible access the BIOS, if you press F2, once you have turned on the laptop. Please check again and load the default settings there.
    And you cannot access the BIOS if you shut down the computer.

    You can use an external mouse on the laptop? Please check this too.

  • Satellite M30-304 - strange questions after BIOS update

    Hi all

    I updated my BIOS according to the good driver for Satellite M30. However, since this operation took the endless problems with screen and wireless card. Also the screen used to display flash BIOS only now them a Centrino, Centrino logo sometimes sometimes Mr. Pentium, I don't know that the version of BIOS is incorrect for my laptop. If I try to re - install the upgrade, it is said version already installed 1.7, so will not continue.

    1. is there a way to force the re - install the same version?
    2. someone can the upgrade me of the correct BIOS Setup for the model n ° PSM30E-0QKJ1-5U, I installed the version was 20070807154017

    The history is quite interesting. AFAIK Centrino logo is there if the Centrino platform is in use.

    The Centrino platform consists of:
    an Intel Pentium M processor
    a chipset Intel 855 of the series
    an Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 or later 2200 (IEEE 802 11 b) mini-PCI wireless adapter

    If a component is removed (Intel PRO/Wireless mini-PCI wireless adapter) the Centrino logo will disappear. I don't really know why logo is from time to time, but you did the right BIOS update. There is no other for your laptop model.

    Can you please tell me what is the problem with your wireless network adapter? You can use just sporadically or what?

  • Satellite L650 - Touchpad turn off after BIOS update

    Hello
    I recently got a new laptop, a L650-1CN,.
    I run different types of software from Toshiba, and one of them is Tempro,
    He shows me messages when a new update is available.

    Today I saw the message that a new BIOS update v.1.80 was available.
    I downloaded and installed. After installing my laptop closed. Then I started again.
    But after a few minutes, I noticed that my touchpad disable itself more.
    I usually use a logitech wireless mouse.

    Now, I wonder if I should do a system restore and not install this update of the BIOS or find another solution for this problem. Because it's really boring.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hey Buddy,

    Usually the touchpad disable automatically if an external mouse is connected, but only if you enable this option in the touchpad settings.

    I also use an external Logitech mouse and have enabled this option. You can find it in Control Panel > mouse. Go to the device settings tab and mark the internal pointing device option disable when the external USB pointing device is attached.

    I hope it works :)

  • Cannot boot after BIOS update

    Hi, I recently bought a laptop Inspiron 5000 series, and because the touchpad control was just horrible I did a check for updates and upgrades. The update includes an update of the BIOS I plugged the laptop and ran the update. When it restarts, it failed. All I see is a boot failure:

    The family Realtek PCIe controller error. Media Test failure UNDI. No found boot device.

    I couldn't do a safe boot, but when I tried to get around the boot legacy and UEFI boot it will start.

    I am quite unhappy that a BIOS update (version 1.1.9 was the old version and 1.2.2 was new) caused this. The laptop is only 4 weeks old if I want to get this resolved.

    What should I do?

    You need not Mech system program.  This is what DellCares told me to do it on Twitter:

    Turn on the machine, key to tap F2 on startup Dell logo, it takes you to the BIOS screen. Go to the "Startup" tab, select "start list Options", change the option to "Legacy" to "UEFI".  Restart the machine, it should load correctly in Windows.

    -----

    I must point out that many others on twitter had already told me to try the same thing.  A person has explained why this has happened.  He said upgrading the BIOS changed the start to the legacy option when we UEFI.  Enter the BIOS and change this back solved the problem, so he's probably right.

  • Notebook G71 won to boot after BIOS update on HP site

    I just updated the BIOS on my notebook G71... I downloaded the update from the HP site and it has been updated V20 to V23.

    After the update, the system became an automatic restart and now it does not move before the initial startup screen that shows HP and "ESC to return to the Start Menu" logo at the bottom. I tried the ESC key, but nothing past then is except that it says "esc... pause start." Nothing anyway. Now I can't reboot my system and it is dead. Help, please. Steve

    Unplug the power cord, remove the battery, hold the power button for a total of 30 seconds, connect AC only, see if it will load windows now.

  • Satellite A105 shift stop working after BIOS update

    I have a stack of boards of laptop of the A105 (Intel chipset) series that I received with the wrong BIOS. Both worked, and I updated the BIOS on them to solve CPU compatibility issues. After that, the shift keys stopped working and pressing Shift-A causes the power led to decrease in intensity. Return to ANY BIOS version, either by the Windows, CD or floppy disk of crisis recovery program (magic key is 'F', not 'B', 'Esc' or 'U'), does not solve the problem of the keyboard.

    To make things more confusing, I've noticed that single BIOS one that actually seems to correct the problem is version 1.50, which I have not seen available for any Tecra A7 or Satellite A100/A105, with the exception of a few 100, but the BIOS file is too small and cannot be loaded.

    Anyone has an idea why these cards Intel processor do that? Or did someone knows where I can get a usable version of BIOS 1.50?

    In the interest of this post, please consider my high level of competence. (In other words, I would be grateful for the people trying to help 'Replace the keyboard', but I have about a dozen keyboards, that everything I tried, and all work on other laptops. In addition, if you have just a theoretical solution, I'm certainly open to hearing. In addition, if a Toshiba tech would answer, I really appreciate it!)

    An update, it seems that the laptop from a different manufacture series show almost the same problem. There are certainly similarities of BIOS, since these Toshiba use the magic key to Fujitsu to trigger the block to start recovery from the crisis. I guess it's very likely that this problem is specifically a problem of Phoenix BIOS.
