• Satellite L350 does not start

  I have a satellite L350 who will not complete the boot process. When I turn on the camera, it will get to the screen that says windows, with the Green scroll bar and that's it. Then my screen turns off.
  When I try safe mode, I get a blue screen with an error message. I went into the bios and change the boot sequence to try to run my recovery disk. When you do this I just get the same black screen.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated

  Hello

  This means that you are not able to reinstall the OS using any disk (disk recovery, Windows XP, Vista or Win 7)?
  The BSOD may be a hardware problem or serious software product, but it looks more like the hardware issue if you're not able to reinstall new OS.

  In this case, the RAM (memory sticks) and the HARD drive must be verified.
  I recommend you to try new memory modules. The HARD drive can be checked by using a tool called Drive Fitness Test which can be downloaded for free from some pages.

  If you don t have right spare modules so I advise to ask a local technician laptop help guys should put new, the work packages and test the laptop.

  Your warranty is valid?
  If so, get in touch with ASP from Toshiba, that might help.

• Satellite L350 - does not start after the BIOS update

  Hello

  I recently (yesterday) downloaded the latest version of bios update dated dated 25/02/10 2: 20 - WIN, after download and does run the software from the laptop immediately stopped working and stop. I am now no longer able to boot up the laptop at all, all I get is the power light on and the hard disk light flashes, I hear the spinning CD/DVD drive, but what is not screen anything, I don't think this is the start.

  Is there a way to fix this without taking it to a store/engineer, BIOS recovery?

  The laptop is a Satellite L350, I opened the laptop to try to reset the CMOS by removing the card mother battery (not sure if it would have helped), but as much as I know it doesn't have an or I'm not.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hi Andy,.

  Hmm... If the BIOS update failed, you can't do anything because only an authorized service provider has professional diagnostic and recovery tools to redo an update.

  So in my opinion, you must contact a service provider authorized in your country. Get in touch with the guy and ask for help. They will tell you what to do now.

  Here is their list:

• Satellite L350-153 and BIOS update 1.90

  I installed Win XP Prof SP3 on my machine. Looking for new drivers I found BIOS WIN-1, 90.
  Try to update the message as the BIOS readings not to laptop. German hotline said that it will be good. Ask a BIOS to install it with the BACK, they say - back is not available.

• Satellite L305-S5955 and starting problems

  Hello
  I have problems with my toshiba Satellite L305-S5955 to departure. When I push the Start button, sometimes it starts, sometimes not (even when it is in sleep or hibernate mode, press a button or the Start button don't work every time), and it is independent of the battery failure or AC power, I checked before. I took it to a repairman, continue and founder of failure has taken a lot of time, at the end, it works very well, but just two days. He said that the problem was in the bios. Now, I still have the same problem.
  -Bios version is 2.02. (never did an update).
  -OS: Windows Vista Home Basic.

  Can someone please help, or have the same problem to share.

  Thanks for reading.

  I doubt s a BIOS problem, I think that it s more material related

  You can try this workaround simply:
  Unplug the adapter of the theca and remove the battery.
  Wait a while (2-3 hours) and reconnect the two parts.
  Then try to turn on the device

  If that does not help, then I guess that the question must be related to a problem on the electonic power motherboard or power that belongs to a mobo

• Satellite L350 won't start or recover using the recovery disks

  My L350 suffered a hard disk problem and wouldn't start. He attempted an ASR, but failed. I rebooted after the system recovery cd that I created when the laptop was bought first, but the recovery fails in image 5.

  Does anyone have advice?

  Have you used these recovery disks in the past?
  If the drives are OK I can imagine there is a problem with the HARD drive but I m not 100% sure about this.

• Satellite L450D - stops and starts again

  Toshiba Satellite L450D
  SER., no. 9442472 K

  Problem. Have a problem with the start. Unable to work, safe mode, safe mode etc. etc. (with the help of F12) or alternative start using (F2)

  Used system recovery disks created with Toshiba recovery Media Creator.

  Now have a never-ending cycle of
  Setup for the 1st use
  Welcome screen
  Please wait
  do not interrupt the closing down.

  Computer stops and the cycle begins again to infinity.

  Please tell us what steps should I take.

  Hello

  The computer really closes or is that only a reboot? The latter I think that everything is ok with your laptop. If you use the Toshiba recovery disc, the computer starts quite often until the installation is complete, this could happen 10 times.

  If your laptop really stops immediately, I think that it s a hardware malfunction and you should contact the nearest authorized service provider. In my view, that the technicians can help you! :)

• Re: Satellite L350-215 and display card error

  Hello
  Just maybe someone can help me this is a new computer (10 days), WIN 7 Home Prem 32-bit, starting up in the event log after two mistakes Atikmdag 43029, atikmdag52236, imm there. verified Web this error seems to be with many toshibas and other portable even in this forum, another problem may be with games, lucky I don.t have this issue (not to play the games). The computer's display last drivers installed 8.634.1.

  I found the easy solution is uninstall ATi updated driver and let Microsoft install problem fixed driver, only problem, can not adjust gamma, brightness, contrast etc. There is a single pilot on the site of ATI Mobility (8.65) who said to win 7 Beta (09/09/2009) could it be used on a Toshiba without breaking all the settings, or maybe someone has a solution for me.

  Thanks in advance

• Satellite Pro M30 and start USB HDD

• Re: Satellite L350-170 - WiFi stops and starts

  Hello

  I have the Toshiba Satellite L350-170 and it's great. I am running Vista 32 bit and I got it for Christmas ' 08.

  For a while now, just WiFi stop (if I use the webcam on msn or something) as if it is just overloaded, then I had to wait a few minutes before it turns back again!

  Is there a driver to stay connected to the internet? In my taskbar, it is said that I am always connected, and when I check on ConfigFree (when I can't use the internet, but it says I * am * logged.)

  This can be solved?
  I hope you can help!

  Kind regards
  James K

  Hi James,

  Maybe this problem is caused by the router. You should check the log of it. The router is always connected interruptions?
  In this case an update would be desirable and let the ISP, check your Internet connection.

  In addition, you can try updating the driver WLAN. The latest version is available for download on the Toshiba site.

• Fact my reocvery for Satellite L350-170 drive works fine

  Hello

  I had my 2 discs of recovery for Satellite L350-170 and after putting the first says something about loading the files and the Microsoft bar comes on.
  Now I have a black screen with a cursor white arrow on it.

  Does that mean his work?

  I am a novice to this :(

  And when I will put the second disc in?

  It is barely a month old and stop right on me.
  It has antivirus protection on this issue and very little used.

  I can t he understand.

  Thank you Michelle

  Hello, Michelle

  This means that you have created two DVD-R virgins for the installation of recovery?
  Please, start your laptop and press F12 repeatedly. When the boot menu appears put the first recovery DVD in the optical disc drive in the menu, choose the CD/DVD and start the installation with the button ENTER.

  You can also try to start installation of recovery image stored on the HARD drive.

  If you didn't change anything about this either on the second partition of HARD drive, try it please follow:
  Start your laptop and press F8 immediately several times to enter Advanced Startup Options. If everything is OK the first option, to fix my computer. If this option is available, please choose and run with the button ENTER.

  Then simply follow the menu on the screen and you will enter in the System Recovery Options. The last option should be Toshiba Recovery option. Please use this option to start the recovery image installation.
  As I've written before, this should work if you didn't change the default settings.

• Satellite L350-171 - where to get the DVD to upgrade Toshiba (Vista to W7)

  Hello world

  I have a Satellite L350-171 and got a W7 DVD update "awhile." I get only round to install now and the first thing I see in the instructions, it's that I should have a upgrade DVD Toshiba, which I did :-(

  Anyone know where I can get one, or if I need any? If not then can I just upgrade and hope that all drivers updated automatically? Sounds a bit risky

  I hope this is the right place to ask.
  If it isn't then point me in the right direction and I'll ask here rather :-)

  Thanks in advance for any help

  Damian

  A few years ago, Toshiba offered this upgrade program.
  It's over and you can't upgrade drive more.

  What you can do is be upgraded using the original disc of Microsoft, but I think you should do clean install Win7. Your model of laptop is supported for Win7 and all necessary drivers, tools and utilities that you can download at Toshiba support page http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

  Before starting with the upgrade Win7 create original Vista recovery DVDs.
  If you need assistance with installing Win7 or if you have other questions, you are welcome.

• Satellite L350 - 21Q - hard drive upgrade

  I have a satellite L350 - 21Q and while to love him as a machine in most ways I think it would be benefited greatly a larger hard drive. With this in mind, I started looking for a suitable replacement and found a 1 TB drive in size and uses the SATA 3.0 connection.

  I'm not sure if the machine will support the drive and so I look to you guys for help. Anyone know if the drive works with the machine, or is two opposites. If this is true can someone advise me what SATA type works and this as the maximum capacity of the space on the hard drive please?

  Thanks in advance :-)

  Unfortunately, Toshiba provides some specific information on hard drives compatible and tested.
  In my opinion you should not notice a few problems with this HARD drive. It is important that you use the HARD disk with SATA connector.

  You can order the new HARD drive, test and if something does not such as you simply want to return.
  Your comments are welcome, because we do not have precise information about these updates.

• Slow Satellite L350

  I have a Satellite L350 laptop, is starting to slow, until Windows, the sreen of toshiba stays for 5 minutes and then windows starts. When I am removing the dvd drive, it normally. Is not any problems for windows.

  Thanks for the help!

  Hello
  > When I am removing the dvd drive, it normally. Is not any problems for windows.
  I put t really understand what you mean exactly by saying: withdrawal of the DVD player

  Did you really take the drive CD/DVD of the ODD Bay s laptop computer?
  The Toshiba splash screen that appears at the beginning of the year, usually indicates this laptop is running the POST (power on self test). During this test, the hardware would be verified.

  The question is: is the CD/DVD drive works and work properly?
  You are able to use wisely.
  If there is no problem, I suppose that the CD/DVD drive is OK and there must be another reason why the home Toshiba screen does not disappear after a few seconds

  Could be the problem or the motherboard BIOS problem
