Hi Lee

Please don t understand me wrong but BIOS password is very important security feature and you cannot wait get the info on the Toshiba (public Portal) forum.

Toshiba uses several different methods for password reset and who knows which of them should be used on your laptop via Satellite.

  • Need help in order for recovery of my Satellite L450 - 16Q

    My laptop had a virus so I used the product recovery disc that came with it, thinking that he'll fix it but he eventually forgave all of my computer even windows 7.

    So now that I have a computer that I can't use it, I bought windows 7 directly from microsoft that I downloaded and tried to install it but it does not work.
    I also bought the product of disks in the backup media on toshiba site recovery in the hope that they will work.

    Can anyone help/advise on what I should do.

    Thank you

    Hello

    The whole story is a bit confusing for me. So lets see what you wrote:
    >... thinking that he'll fix it but he eventually forgave all of my computer even windows 7.
    The thought does not. What you need is accurate information about the installation of recovery and that are in the user s manuals document recovery disk is not like Microsoft installation disk and cannot be used for the repair. Recovery disk contains the recovery image and can be used for any new installation OS (recovery image installation) only.
    > So now I have a computer that I can not use
    Why you can not use? Recovery image installation installs new OS. What operating system is installed after the execution of installation recovery image?
    > I also bought the backup from toshiba support site product recovery disks
    But why, if you already have recovery disk you used at the beginning of this whole thing?

    What you need to do is to use the original disc for installing the OS.
    -Start your laptop and press F12 repeatedly to enter the BOOT menu
    -When the menu put the recovery in ODD disk
    -Select the CD/DVD drive in the menu and press ENTER
    -Follow the on-screen menu

    After installation of recovery image you will have factory again and everything should be OK.
    Any other questions?

  • Re: Satellite L450-173 - unable to detect wireless networks

    I have a similar problem with my satellite L450-173.

    I bought this laptop without OS and installed win 7.
    I found and downloaded the latest drivers toshiba WLAN support and download page and my Device Manager indicates that the device is turned on and that it works correctly.

    However, I am unable to detect the networks without wire in the box (alltough there are at least three in the district).
    I have a home network with the router. When I connect to my laptop with a LAN cable, it connects automatically without problem. But I can not connect via my wireless connection.

    Windows troubleshooting is of no use.
    I downloaded the chipset drivers updated too (following the suggestion by an online forum), but which did not help at all.
    My "doctor Conectivity" reported that my wlan adapter is 'on', but when I enter the 'Radar' option, it reports that this wireless network device is disabled. I tried to disable and then enable once again, but it did not help. I also used the option reset address IP - no use. My IP address is set to auto because my network is connected by the router.
    I tried pressing FN + F8 but I have not noticed any change.

    Indicator LED for a wireless connection at the front of the laptop is always red.
    I read many forums linking similar issues to win 7, but I have not found any solution.

    Any ideas?

    Hello

    Eventually the WiFi network is disabled and so you cannot connect to the Wlan router.
    If the FN + F8 does not change the status of WLan, then it would mean that Don t FN buttons work properly have you checked if the other FN keys work?

    You must reinstall the VAP (value added package) to obtain the keys FN working again
    If you want to use the Fn + F8 then you should see (flashcard) WLan icon on the screen

    Another idea;
    You can toggle the wifi in the Device Manager-> card Wlan-> properties-> Advanced tab.
    Check this box

    PS: If the BIOS is not updated, then you need to update it too!

    I have a Satellite L450 173.
    The system will display a failure while trying to detect the hard drive then cannot boot from the hard drive.

    However, it can boot from the CD and install ubunto 11.04 (with barrier).
    However, after the success in the installation process, the system cannot start...
    Is this a Bios problem that require an update?

    Hello

    * Question: *.
    Either classified and recognized in the BIOS HARD drive?
    On the first page of the BIOS disk HARD should be listed with details such as the name and the size of the HARD drive.

    If his list, then you must run a HARD drive test. You could test the HARD drive by using a freeware tool called Drive Fitness Test.
    This tool is free and can be downloaded from different pages
    To do this, and if there is error, it means that your HARD drive is malfunctioning.

  • Boot with Win7 32 bit and Satellite L450-36 problems

    A friend has a laptop Toshiba Satellite L450-36 Windows 7 32-bit which he thinks has been hit by a Virus. He went to use the laptop a few weeks 3 + ago and concluded that it would not initialize. Now, he has 3 daughters who, before this problem, much used YouTube and say that they were able to see updates Adobe Flash Player appear on the screen at regular intervals, but they have deleted the. When he came to talk about the problem for me, I offered to watch the machine that I have some disks that can cure or at least let me save records Paragon Rescue Kit, Avira Anti Virus Rescue Disk, AVG Rescue Disk & others.

    When I turn on the machine I get a screen with boot Toshiba Leading Innovation one
    Press [F2] for INSTALLATION, press [F12] to the lower boot device selection menu. I leave the machine in operation and a window pops up let me the choice of {HD1}, , , but nothing happens when I select one, then I stop the machine and start again, this time by pressing F2 which takes me into the BIOS. I put in a cd, Paragon Rescue Kit 11, arrived on the BIOS and the CD starts. I did the same thing with the Avira Anti Virus system and it found 4 infections. He then lets me copy all my friend (s) files on an external hard drive, which allows me to complete objectives.

    I started the Recovery CD/DVD Toshiba product and I get a Windows loading files message followed by a bar of Microsoft Corporation loading under him and then there is a black screen with a cursor on it. I did the same thing with a system Windows 7 32-bit repair disc and get the same result black screen empty.

    I am retired and to my knowledge has been gained since the Commodore 64 days, then Amiga and PC now, but it isn't enough for me to fix this problem. I found very frustrating to be able to use a Linux program and see all the programs on the PC, but not actually being able to restart it, and start them! I could probably Boot & Nuke the hard drive, but my friend wasn't t provided with a disc of Windows 7 o/s system couldn t so re-installed without buying again.

    I would be very grateful for any advice on how to get rid of the HD1/FLOPPY/NEXT HD window and a solution for the portable computer so that it starts properly. I took pictures of different screens on the laptop that I could pass if they would help.

    In my opinion, you should remove the HARD drive and connect it to another computer and perform low level set in shape and just delete everything. You can use a tool like this and after doing this put back and try to install the original recovery image using the recovery disk.

    In the past I ve never had these problems, but I think it's the best way to remove all the viruses or malicious applications.
    Test it and thanks for posting comments.

  • Satellite L450-136 no longer charge with the AC adapter

    I was wondering if someone can help me.

    My laptop Toshiba Satellite L450-136 charge is no longer with the AC adapter.

    It is now run out of dead and the battery power.
    I don't know if the problem is with the computer or the power cable.

    It was working fine yesterday and then not work this morning.
    Nothing happened as the computer having fallen or anything.

    Does anyone have any ideas on how I can understand the problem and then fix it?

    Thank you!

    To be honest, I have two different laptops Toshiba (U400 and Tecra A11).
    The two race perfectly and never had problems charging the battery or similar
    I have other laptop which is 8 years from another manufacturer but the battery is dead, but it's nothing unusual for laptop that is so old ;)
    One of my friends has the same laptop as your Satellite L450 and this also works

    > I don't know if the problem is with the computer or the power cable.

    This can be verified if you would connect a power adapter new and tested.
    However, I think that it s not worth it to buy a new adapter only to run some tests, this should be done by technicians for laptop
    If your warranty is still valid, get in touch with the ASP guys and check this box

  • Satellite L450 (PSLY0E) - a black screen after BIOS update

    It seems I have "brick" my phone during a bios utdate that went wrong... black screen as suspect: o.

    The laptop is a Toshiba satellite L450 (PSLY0E)
    The new bios image is named "bwaa150a.rom".

    Anyone know if it is possible to recover the bios of the flash or floppy drive, using a sort of toolfrom recovery inside the bios chip?... .or something?

    Anyone know who is the manufacturer of this bios?
    If I rename the bios image during a recovery, what 12xxxxx be named?

    To my knowledge, it is possible to reflash the EPROM module using the special procedure of crisis of the BIOS. But this crisis BIOS disk for Toshiba computers laptops isn't available for download.
    This must be done by authorized maker Toshiba.

    But I also read in the forum about those who tried some discs of crisis 3rd party BIOS.
    Sometimes it worked, but in most cases, you need advanced help technician.

    However, to use the forum search option advanced to search for similar topics on crisis disk BIOS. Otherwise, as I said above: you last chance might be the ASP.

  • Satellite L450-188 - how to disable ACPI.sys and update the BIOS?

    Hi, hoping someone can help me with a slight problem, I'll have

    I recently bought a Satellite L450-188 (number PSLY0E-03K019EN) running under Windows 7 64-bit

    I use the laptop with a DJ program called Rane Serato Scratch Live, I got latency usb problems, getting usb dropouts when I try to use the program on the smallest audio buffer position (which I expect to be able to do)

    When I contacted support at Serato team with my problem, they suggested that I run a program to check the time DPC on my laptop, when I presented the report to them, they said ACPI.sys was the origin of the problem and suggested that interest me to turn it off, but I wasn't too comfortable with that.

    The other suggestion was to try to find updates the bios for my laptop, but I'm not too set up with that sort of thing, and I'm worried I might damage the laptop maybe installing the wrong thing.

    Can someone give me advice on this topic, because I don't know what to do

    Thank you
    Jim

    Hi jimbob_1,

    Normally the ACPI means Advanced Configuration and Power Interface and control options for energy savings.
    So if something is wrong with the ACPI.sys file I recommend reinstall Windows using Toshiba recovery disc.
    By the way: are you running pre-installed Windows version or another?

    As Akuma writes that you can download the BIOS update from Toshiba Web site. http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/ > support & downloads > download drivers

    Your laptop belongs to the series of PSLY0E, so you can download latest BIOS.

    Before you begin the BIOS update, close all running programs and extract all the files from zip archive. You start the update as an administrator and connect the AC adapter. Also, make sure that the battery is fully charged.

  • Can satellite L450-136 - I install Windows XP?

    I just got a Satellite L450-136 with Windows 7 and all loaded Toshiba Utillities. I don't like Windows 7 and many prefer Windows XP.
    Can I remove all Windows 7 and install Windows XP on this laptop?

    Thank you.

    Hey,.

    > Can I delete all Windows 7 and install Windows XP on this laptop?
    Of course, you can install all the BONES you want :)

    But don t forget to create the Toshiba recovery disc as mentioned in the user manual. If you want Windows 7 returns with all the drivers and tools you can restore from recovery disc because it contains a picture of the factory settings.

    Did you check if you can get all the drivers for your model and XP?
