Satellite L350-212 - does not start a recovery disk

• Does not start a recovery disk

  Pavilion a1650y WMCE - overwhelmed by W32/virut.  Regular and partition recovery is compromised.  All parts are original.  I ordered the HP recovery disks, but I'm unable to actually running recovery.  The computer does not start with the 1 disc in the DVD player.  Drive light flashes, but I just get a black screen, that expires after one minute with the message "Reboot and select a suitable boot device or insert boot media and press a key.

  I can boot to a classic XP disk in the drive, so I know that the drive is ok.  I can boot from disc 1 of recovery on another computer (it of a Dell and correctly points out that the discs are not intended for this computer) so I know that the drive is ok.  Hmmm.

  I have reset the BIOS, but that has no effect.

  My first thought was that the mother had been replaced at some point given and tattooed not correctly.  However, I ran a DMI utility to read the specs - and everything exactly matches the tile of the factory.  Product serial number, the nomenclature of HW, RIN, no., type of motherboard, everything.

  I swapped in another hard drive, but the problem persists.  So the problem must be with the motherboard, but I don't know what to try next.  Can I do short of replacing the motherboard (or the purchase of an operating system)?  Just 3 1/2 years, I hope that I don't have a new doorstop...

  Thank you!

  Have you tried to boot with the drive disconnected to see if it boots to the BIOS screen? It is a step of troubleshooting isolation. A Linux live disk will start under Linux? If this does not work, consider trying another drive of CD/DVD on your PC before looking at the motherboard as the flaw in the system.

  Kind regards

• Satellite L350-20F does not start

  Hello

  After downloading an updated driver (from toshiba tempro website) in a zip file, I open it, but the computer turns off.
  Now when I press the button all I get is the green light and the fan.
  A blank screen, tried pressing f8 and f12 and insert recovery disks, but in order to use HELP!

  The computer is a few months old.

  Thank you

  You write about driver update or perhaps update BIOS?
  Your story is not so clear what exactly happened.

  Anyway, if you can not start your laptop, I'm afraid that you need professional help.
  I recommend you contact nearest Toshiba authorized maintainer. Let them check your laptop and see what's wrong here.

• Satellite L350-159 does not start

  I used my laptop the other day and it has frozen for centuries, so I shut it off by holding the button (it was all I could do).

  In any case when I turned it back would not load and sat on the window that says windows with a bar from left to right.
  I tried f8 and the restoration of the last previous known good config and also tried boot safe mode, any of these worked.

  This does mean that I need to find someone to save the data somehow, and then rebuild?
  Is it expensive? Can I do it myself?

  > Does that mean I need to find someone to save the data somehow and then rebuild?

  As I understand you, you want to have access to the data before attempting to install the operating system once more. Right?
  Well, you can try to start Notepad using Windows Live CD WinPE or PartBE
  Google for both.
  You can create these Live CD that allows you to start the laptop without the installation of the new operating system. Then, you can go to the HARD drive and could move all data to USB HDD or USB.

  You could also remove the laptop HARD drive and could connect to the specifications of anthers with a USB HDD enclosure.
  Using a portable computer, you can move the data from the HARD drive that you have connected to the USB port.

• Satellite C650 - Windows does not start correctly

  I have a Satellite C650, who does not start, when it lights there are two options, Startup Repair launch which leads to a black screen and mobile arrow, the screen remains like that until you turn it off the button stop (seriously ive left for about 10 hours). The other option is to start windows normally resulting in a blue screen and the laptop restarts itself.

  Help me please, make things worse I can't find the box that it came in which contains the guarantee and recovery disc

  Hey Buddy,

  You can start your laptop in safe mode? This means that if you press the F8 key before Windows starts and you choose Safe mode can you start Windows?

  If this isn't the case I think that it s something wrong with your Windows installation and that's why you need to use the Toshiba Recovery disk to restore to factory settings.

• Satellite P300-28th does not start - windows does not load

  I bought Toshiba P300 28th last week. I spent Vista business successfully in Windows XP Professional with provided Toshiba DVD. Update Windows with Windows Update. After 3 days, laptop turns off suddenly, and because Windows does not start, it in fact does not start.

  When I press the power button / stop, it turns on, shows "Toshiba Leading Innovation" logo image option and "2", "press 12...", and it hangs and stops.
  I tried pressing F2 and F12, nothing happened.

  I can not access the boot menu.

  I put the Toshiba Recovery CD, the hard drive does not work. Recovery disk does not start, despite earlier I remember put boot CD/DVD at the forefront in the Boot Options to Boot Menu.

  I checked everything, power cable, took the battery in and replace after 3 hours, tried to turn on the portable power, without battery cable. Did not help.

  Don't know what to do?

  Your help is very appreciated.

  Hello Fiona

  If you are unable to enter the BIOS (F2) at startup settings there must be some serious hardware problem.
  I recommend to contact your local dealer where you bought this laptop and ask for help, or you can contact Toshiba service provider directly.

  What you have tried to do is good but if laptop doesn t allow you to enter parameters of the BIOS something wrong here, and you need professional help.

• Satellite A200-1BJ does not start

  Hello

  My Satellite A200-1BJ does not start. After turning on the button it starts only for 1 or 2 seconds (flashing light, work from HDD, fan work, display blank) and then it turns off automatically. Once it happened days before but I didn't have the time to solve it and over the next few days, he has not occurred. Now, I tried to launch it more than 20 times and it still won't start.

  I tried only with full battery and also only with the power adapter. I removed the HDD, RAM, keyboard, DVD, speakers, display and a few other connector under the keyboard and it still does not start and it shuts down after 1-2 seconds each time.

  In recent months he sometimes exploded due to overheating during work so I cleaned the dust inside.

  No problem with the motherboard or power?

  Thanks for help.

  Hmmm... on this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is. described behavior is the same as in cases when the BIOS is dead after failed BIOS update installation.

  Of course, it's mainboard problem but what exactly, it is not easy to say. For me, this looks like faulty BIOS.

  Have you installed any updates or anything that may be responsible for this?

• Satellite A10-131 does not start of valuation or any other disc

  I have a client who has an A10-131. I had to reload the OS, but the new DVD burner does not start the recovery CD or any other original Windows CD also. Is anyone able to solve this problem. I need to know which solution is possible with such a problem.

  Thank you.

  How have you tried to boot from the drive?
  Have you changed the boot order in the BIOS?

  Startup options are usually available.
  1. you can press the C key immediately after to computer mobile power to detect CD/DVD drive starts
  2. you can press F12 for the boot menu
  3. you will first change the boot order in the BIOS to ODD

  But it s interesting to know if your new ODD is compatible with the laptop

• Why Satellite Pro A300 does not start when you press the power button?

  Suddenly my new Satellite Pro A300 does not start correctly when you press the power button. The situation is the following: when I press the power button is displayed the opening of Toshiba (Leading Innovation) and the disappers image quickly. Then there is a black screen for about 30 seconds. There is a rectangular frame with the text Microsoft Corporation under. And nothing happens however long wait.

  In order to get with the trial starting I then shut down the computer by pressing the power button until the computer turns off. ("The hard way to close")
  Now, I press the power button shortly to turn on the computer. Then, the computer starts normally with the photo to open Toshiba and after a few seconds, I wonder to open the computer in safe mode or in normal mode. I now choose to open in normal mode and the computer opens normally and is ready to work.

  What should I do to get a normal departure procedure?

  When the laptop starts normally (after choosing normal mode) stop your laptop properly using START > shut down option. Next launch should be normal.

  When the OS is moving towards the low irregularly will always ask you how to start this new (secure or normal mode).
  The same thing happen on my Satellite A300.

• Satellite P200-143 does not start

  My Satellite P200-143 does not start. The led lights up and the drive light flashes once then nothing. Holding the buttome 'on' for 10 second light outside.

  I tried to take out the battery for the afternoon, but no effect

  Any suggestions?

  P

  It looks like a dead last.
  The P200 is a new series and I think that the guarantee is valid. Then contact the ASP in your country and ask for help.

  Good luck

• Satellite M30-107 does not start successfully after using recovery disk

  Hello

  I recently got my hands on a toshiba Satellite M30-107 laptop second hand and decided to freshen it.
  I used the toshiba recovery disk, but after that the laptop is no longer support windows.

  When turned on it shows booting Toshiba disc for about a second then goes to a screen blank and freezes.
  When turned on, once again, a screen will appear an error by stopping and offer the opportunity to start in SafeMode etc but choose one of the options causes the machine to freeze.

  Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

  Thank you
  JT

  Hello

  Sounds a little like the laptop does not start because of the problem of Windows software
  You did not recover the M30 with the original Toshiba that was provided with this device M30 recovery CD?

  I may be wrong, but to me it looks like a recovery CD incorrect has been used and an image with drivers not compatible m has been installed

  You can try to install the OS of Microsoft Win XP original CD and could check if it would be possible to get the notebook ruin using own BONE.

  In this case we (you and me ;)) might know if this problem could be related to hardware or software.

  Good bye

• 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,
  Martin

  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. ;)

• Satellite U300-13U does not start and the recovery disc fails to too much work

  Hi all

  I have the above computer (or should I say my wife) & it is nothing that a good pain since the first day we got it.
  I have had it about 2 years & had to reformat the HD at least 6-8 times using the product recovery disc as laptop starts.
  The laptop runs Vista.

  In any case, problem I have now is that new laptop does not start, but for some reason any product recovery disc also does not work...
  What I can do...

  I have read on various forums that it might work if I reformat the HD first using some s/w on a bootable CD but how / what S/W can I use...?
  The laptop has a SATA HD 160 GB installed. How can I check that it all works.
  I don't know if the current problem is S/W or related material...

  Toshiba has a utility that I can use...?

  Thanks a lot for all the help...

  John

  Hello

  What happened exactly?
  Do you receive error messages by using the recovery disk?

  Check if the HARD drive is OK! You can check in the BIOS.
  If the HARD drive is listed in the BIOS then the HARD drive and HARD drive found BIOS is not dead.

  Usually, you might start Notepad with the help of a Live disc for example Bart PE
  It s a bootable windows CD/DVD live

  This can allows you to format the HARD disk, and then use the recovery disc!

  Have you tested with any other CD bootable (Linux)?

• 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 does not start. I have the power of Yes, and it dosent seem to work at all.
  I used to run vista Home premium on it but she kept crashing on me, so I tried to make recovery disks and that has not worked, kept computer sends me wouldent and mistakes write cd

  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
