Satellite L300D - 12L does not start from CD/DVD drive

Hello.

I noticed a couple of threads on L3x who sometimes won't start but have a blinking cursor.
I also have this problem with my daughter satellite.

It occurs when there is a disc in the DVD player. The PC does not start, I get a black screen with a cursor and the DVD flashes regularly as if she is trying to determine if there is a bootable disc inserted.

I tried several discs with similar results.
Everything that happens the DVDRW ejects, and I have to force a shutdown, then eject the disc immediately when I start her for it boot on Vista.

Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Hello

Have you tried to boot from the recovery disk Toshiba?

Fact is if you try to install the Windows operating system on the new laptop series, you must install either the drivers SATA or you must set compatible SATA to AHCI mode in the BIOS!

That's why check first before you would contact any ASP guy to replace the STRANGE.

See you soon

  • Satellite L300D - 12L does not work

    Hi, my Satellite L300D - 12L does not work.

    I was on windows and it came with a blue screen with white writing on it. I didn't see what he said.
    It turned off my laptop. Then it restarted. He got to the screen saying: start the system restart and start windows normally.

    I did the repair of launch option. He said windows loads the files then pulls up to the Microsoft loading bar then the screen turns white for centuries, just with the arrow cursor. I tried to leave two repair a normal but get the same.

    What can I do? Any ideas?

    Looks like Windows is damaged. I would run Recovery by pressing zero during power on. Backup your data first, because the rags for HARD drive recovery.

    Also check the RAM. www.memtest.org is a bootable CD or a FD

  • My C50 - B Satellite does not start from the HARD drive

    Details of the machine: -.

    Model number: PSCMLA-03F07Q
    Serial number: XE343127P

    Computer does not start from hard drive. No error message, just the start Toshiba at the end of self-test screen.

    Sometimes a reinstall of the operating system seems to correct the problem, but then he would go again, now the problem is consistent.

    I reduced the possibilities to a fault of BIOS, reasons.

    System boots from USB with no problems. Installation of operating systems is done without error. SMART hard drive data indicates a perfectly healthy hard drive. Memcheck will return no error.

    The obvious solution is to reload the BIOS, just reset it doesn't help. But that is the problem.

    1.4 BIOS update that the Australian site offers is a Windows program and the computer cannot start Windows.

    Obvious answer is to use a bootable USB key with an operating system 'live' on this issue, but all of these systems are Linux and the update of the BIOS is a Windows program. So much for smart solutions.

    Downloaded Bios version 1.7 of the European site but the iso inside the rar file is empty, 25 MB in size but nothing in there according to Linux. Tried to run his program on a Win7 64 bit computer and it returns an error that it could not find the correct iso file.

    I submitted a support request by email to Toshiba, but they believe that it could take three days to get a response, so I thought I would ask here as well. Can someone tell me please to a working copy of the latest BIOS update disk for a laptop Satelite C50 - B? Note: this model does not have a CD player so iso should be compatible with USB boot.

    See you soon,.

    Andrew.

    Hello

    From my experience that I n think that BIOS update is the final solution for you. When you set the default settings of the BIOS disk HARD appears correctly in the BIOS settings?
    HARD drive is also offered and listed as boot device when you enter in the start using F12 at startup menu?

    What happens when you start using recovery image installation created recovery USB key (I hope that you have created a)?

    Offer BIOS updates are versions of WIN and can be performed by running the Windows operating system.

  • Satellite L300D-11V does not start

    Hey, I have a Toshiba Satellite L300D-11V and seems them to be a problem, the battery seems to be dead and does not start also when I connect it to the mains it also does not start.

    Please could someone help to what is causing the problem?

    Thank you very much

    I doubt that it is a dysfunction of the accumulator because the startup laptop doesn t even the power adapter is plugged.
    I think you should try this workaround:
    Remove the battery from the laptop and unplug the power adapter.
    Then wait about 20-30 minutes and then reconnect the two parts.

    If the portable fuel I would recommend updating BIOS.
    If the portable feed then you will need to contact the ASP in your country!

  • Satellite L300D PSLC8C does not start

    I'm in a lot of trouble here with my laptop.
    I have a satellite L300D MODEL NO = PSLC8C 04401R series and this is what is wrong.

    It has gotten to the point where my laptop wouldent work so I erased the memory and yes I tried the thing to push "0" and nothing was.
    When I had cleared I tried to install windows home edition, Ive had a satellite before this problem and that fixed it, but a blue screen keeps popping up saying that the computer stopped inorder to damage it.

    I tried at home, Proffessional and even a vista upgrade disc and nothing works.

    So I really need to know what went wrong and how to fix it.

    Hello

    To me, this looks like a serious hardware problem.
    If you are not able to reinstall the operating system on the HARD drive then some of the equipment should work.
    It of difficult to say what role could be faulty we can assume only what could be wrong

    If the BSOD appears the first part that should be checked is RAM module.
    The faulty RAM memory may be the reason for BSOD and therefore, it would be interesting to know if the new RAM would solve this problem
    You can delete only one module of RAM and could try to start the laptop comes with an installed module.

    If it doesn't, then you need a help of a technician for laptop
    Guys could check essential components such as the CPU or the motherboard

  • Satellite Pro 460 does not start with the new drive in

    I recently received a Satellite Pro 460, but he had no hard drive.
    It starts great without a disc in but as soon as I put a new hard drive in it does not start.

    I thought that it might be again a hard drive, so I pulled out my old Toshiba Satellite with my old drive to work, and yet, it does not start.

    Someone has any ideas why this is and what I can do about it

    I think that you can not do much. Satellite pro 460 CDT, for example, comes with 2 GB of HARD drive. If you try to get it work with similar HDD without success, it may be defective IDE port on the motherboard.

    What HARD drive you are trying to use on this good old classic?

    Hello

    I guess that you do not see the CD/DVD drive in MY computer area.
    Right?

    I think I can help you
    First go to Device Manager and search for CD/DVD drive.
    Select this device and delete it from the list.

    Now, open the registry (type regedit in the search) and remove the filters above and below to the following registry key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SYSTEM \CurrentControlSet\Control \Class \{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    Hi herikhi,
     
    Change the start of the base system (Input Output) BIOS setting to boot from the hard drive.
     
    Consult the manual of the manufacturer, to do the same thing.

    My laptop Tecra A3 does not react to the BIOS setting asking at the start of the CD/DVD.

  • x 61 does not start from usb flash drive

    I don't know that I did several times before, but for some reason any my x 61 does not allow me to boot to a usb flash drive, I use normally to install the operating system.

    Any suggestions what might be wrong and what I could do about it?

    I should mention that USB is enabled in the BIOS and usb flash drive install works on other computers.

    Update seems to be an incompatibility with wintoflash, I used the Microsoft DVD/USB tool and it starts the flash player and finished the installation. Strangely the wintoflash installation worked fine in a HP dv3000.

    Consider this resolved.

    Wow I never saw your post until that earlier.

  • Satellite A100: Does not start a recovery DVDs

    Hi guys.
    First timer here.
    I have read some of the Q & A on reboot problems the A100 since the recovery DVDs.
    It seems I have the same problems as keith.

    I want to start all over again the OS and my laptop does not start from the DVD.
    Tried the standard f12 boot from cd option. tried her "hold C on the boot option.
    Both options end with no joy.

    The screen that says "loading ramdisk image", loads the machine breaks, asks me to wait, then every time the same thing.
    The screen goes black, flashes very quickly and white and then loads from the hard disk as normal.

    Now try to hold my frustration and do something radical.
    I know that in the Q & A previous, the subject is considered as replied...
    other options?

    My following thoughts are to delete/uninstall almost every thing and try and force the thing to boot from the DVD.
    have also copied the dvd and tried to boot from the copy, always with no joy.

    Are there any other suggestions?

    Is it possible to put a partition in the existing drive and start the recovery dvd in there, then delete the junk of the original section of the drive, and then delete the partition?

    is it possible to close all essential processes and format the HARD drive?

    is it possible to reset the HARD drive somehow?

    see you soon,

    Hello Martin

    To be honest, it's pretty strange question. There is one thing I am interesting for:
    Is - this first time, you try to use a recovery media for the installation of the OS?

    If possible, try to get the Microsoft CD/DVD facilities to see if the same thing will happen.

    In any case, I will try to give you answers to your questions.
    > Is it possible to put a partition in the existing drive and to start the recovery dvd in there, then delete the junk of the original section of the drive, and then delete the partition?
    It will not work. On the recovery of the media it is recovery image and this image must be installed correctly. You cannot "recover DVD in there. Not question

    > is it possible to close all essential processes and format the HARD drive?
    I would like to know what you understand under the 'essential processes?

    > Is it possible to reset the HARD drive somehow?
    You can't do this somehow. If you want to 'reset' HARD drive, you must delete the existing partition or delete any OS installation. After having done that, you need to install new OS. All this will be done at the beginning of the recovery procedure.

    I really don't understand what's wrong there. Please answer to my first question, and we will continue this discussion. ;)
