Satellite L450 - 173 BIOS cannot detect the HARD whil eLinux disc that ubunto can

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.

  • 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 think its time I replaced my hard drive. Ive done all the checks and his return there is no errors with the hard disk, yet whenever I connect I get a message saying that there is.

    I guess that's only a matter of time before things get more serious.
    Its just now that it unattached restarts automatically.
    Ive gave my laptop below specifications and the specifications of the hard disk drive.
    I do not know which drive hard im supposed to be looking at.

    I don't want to buy one and then duty send because its incompatiable.
    Ive done some reading on the internet and he says I cn buy any production, but I need to know wheather its an IDE or SATA, what are these and what do mean? How can I find out what my current car?

    Also should I look for a hard drive with the same speed? It doesn't matter if its fatser?
    Wise, capacity is also ok for larger, will my laptop be able to handle it. Thanks for help

    Hello

    The Satellite A200 supports the SATA HDD controller.
    That's why you need to buy a SATA 2.5 HARD.
    The value of the rmp is not really important for compatibility issues with the 4200 RPM HDD or more is possible and compatible.

    SATA controller not limited to any size of HARD drive, you can also use large drives.

  • Re: My laptop does not start, it cannot detect the hard drive

    I'm having the same problem but a bit different. I noticed that the support said to replace the hard drive and that's what I did with a disc Windows 8.1 and I took a step after test and see if my hard drive is not really usable. I put it in another computer that is also running Windows 8.1. It worked but my origianl computer still does not work, it says always "no drive detected". What the heck!

    think at this point, the best thing to do for you what we call. It is perhaps that the computer is a little less than a year and is still under warranty. Whatever the case, a technical support professional phone can certainly discuss your options with you.

    What you can do, is to use the following link to create yourself a file number, then call and it can help to expedite the appeal process:

    Step 1. Open the link: www.hp.com/contacthp/
    Step 2. Enter the product number or select Auto detection
    Step 3. Scroll up to "still need help? Fill out the form to select your contact options.
    Step 4. Scroll down and click on: contact HP options - click Get phone number

  • M6-1105dx cannot detect the hard drive

    my machine is m6-1105dx with Windows 7. It cannot start with an error "boot device not found, please install an operating system on your hard drive. The error number is 3F0 and he recalled by pressing F2 for system diagnostics.

    In diagnostic tests, memory test works fine, but the hard disk check gives error "SMART Check: NOT INSTALLED; "DST short: DO NOT INSTALLED."

    I tried with two different hard disks and there were mistakes. Anyone know what is happening?

    Assuming that hard drives are actually showing good on another PC, then the SATA cable may be bad, does not have the connections, or the contoller is bad.  I would like to start by refuse as those first several elements - HDD, SATA cable, connections, etc are good.  If it is the controller, it is not easy to repair on a laptop.  Probably needs a new motherboard.  I used something similar to THIS to make sure that the disc is good or not.

  • BIOS cannot detect the drive msata

    I am trying to use an msata player in my m4700 precision but not very successful. I tried to use Crucial and mushkin in msata/WWAN slot. BIOS simply ignores the card. I heard he was trying ever since that it took a while for BIOS finished to start if I put the card.

    But he alread card list mini SSD to be {none}

    Does anyone have a similar experience?

    Thanks for the help

    Packers dell offers a compatible dell certified msata card 256. .they delivered oriinally previous systems portable and with samsung pm830 256Go msata cards... samsung msata are not currently available for resale this invintory is used by OEMs, I was personally able to source 2 new samsung 256 GB msata (MZMPC256HBGJ - 0001D 1) via the internet outside India Mambai @ $350.00 / each you can order an msata of 256 GB of dell spare parts using the printer dell P/N MTT20 which is for a computer of dell desktop XPS 8500SE that uses also the same card 256 GB msata. Initially, I ordered a Dell, but they kept its replacement by a Liteon Dell P/n V6PN8 (LMT256M3M) 256 GB msata for the samsung pm830 msata... even you I have not specified no substitution... due to price I choose to send the dell back and keep the pm830 256Go s msata samsung... I set up my own M4700s accuracy with them 2 and one of my buddies with a 256 GB liteon you both work good... .only difference, it's the samsung seems to have better read/write speeds on the liteon... I've personally never tried a crucial msata, but I read the other posts that State they do infact on the m4700 work. Just a thought maybe your msata/wwwlan slot / port is bad or damaged or possibly the msata allignment slot on bottom of card has a Burr or incorrectly notched try a smidge to see if the pins will be properly align... Once you get the screw spindle allignment held in place of filing in the notch on the card, just a thought only other choice is to get Council MB or girl replaced by dell... Good luck, I hope do you run MAC ii

  • computer cannot detect the scanner or camera

    When I plug in my digital camera Canon for my xp, then turn it on, I hear a small beep, then nothing. When I go into the Panel, printers and other equipment, scanners and cameras, I see 2 points. 1 is, WIA Canon MX310 SER. The 2nd one is Canon PowerShot SD1300IS. I then click on the Canon PowerShot SD1300IS and then get pictures, but nothing happens. The cameras screen display turns off, but that's all.

    Thanks for the help, but it did not help.

    It turns out that some tech volunteer known as J (is it you?} came across the solution to my problem on this site:http://www.veiled-chameleon.com/weblog/archives/000231.html )

    I have used PC Cleaner on this xp, and I think he may have disabled some of the registry keys. For me, I had to start my pitcher of DCOM Server, RPC, Remote procedure Call Locator process and put them on automatic. Once I rebooted, everything works great.

  • Re: Satellite C675 - BIOS cannot detect HDD

    Hi guys,.
    My BIOS doesn't detect the HARD drive. I don't see CD/DVD drive.
    Value Mode SATA AHCI controller.

    It still does not if I chose the default installation program.

    When I try to start the system, it is said:
    "Reboot select clean boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected boot device and press a key".

    I couldn't reinstall/recover new CD cos Win7 system could not detect any drive during installation.

    I put my HARD drive in the second laptop and it didn't work so I bought a new.

    New HARD drive now is OK, because I've tried it with another laptop and it works fine.

    Any ideas what's wrong with my laptop?
    It comes to motherboard? If so, what should I do?

    See you soon,.
    Radar

    > I couldn't reinstall/recover new CD cos Win7 system could not detect any drive during installation.

    It s no matter if SATA is set to AHCI or compatibility mode. The HARD drive should be recognized by BIOS even if the AHCI mode has been selected.
    On the first page of the BIOS disk HARD should be listed with the name and size.
    If it isn't the case, it is possible that your HARD disk controller is defective.

    What HARD drive you bought exactly? Is this a 2.5 SATA HDD?

    I have an acer gateway ne570 and it does not start and I tried the bios and it always detects the hard drive but first boot priority is boot windows which is the only thing on the menu Manager startup options when you press on enter where the box "no boot device, press a key" comes after starting the laptop and when the gateway logo appears. I've had for over a year and the hard drive still works and my laptop didn't come with a recovery or recovery usb drive. And I also used the alt + f10 button that linked me right back to square "no boot device, press a key. Anyway, what should I do?

  • Satellite L40 - installation of XP cannot detected a HARD drive

    Hello

    I want to install windows XP SP2 on a L40 but boot with the XP CD, Windows Setup does not detect the hard drive.
    The hard drive is a SATA drive.

    Please wat could be the problem?

    Hello!

    It is really hard to read these questions...

    The solution is pretty simple: you need the SATA drivers. At the point where your HARD drive is running in AHCI mode and so you need drivers. On Intel chipsets, is the Intel Storage Manager.

    Hello world

    I have everything, what I can and can't try. During the Installation of Windows XP cannot detect any HARD disk.

    PORTEGE M400 PPM40E-0DG0253I
    BIOS 3.8

    Installation of Vista properly with RAID, but XP installation drivers won't work for all that. I try a lot of drivers (versions even for Vista), with integration of nLite, with SD-start 16-bit back, DriverPacks. I bought no change - disk-USB, the laptop cannot see HDD. I try also with the USB-SATA external enclosure, but this without success, but I can see the HARD drive

  • HP DV7-3063cl laptop PC: BIOS cannot locate the serial number of the new motherboard more PXE - E61: Media test failure, check

    I have recently restored a HP DV7 3063 cl laptop that died a hot mother (MB). I replaced the MB with a new Board of Directors of HP when the price has been reduced to $100, updated the CPU with an announced as new AMD 640 M and applied Arctic Silver on CPU and graphics chips. I put in 4 G memory cool, got the computer to work and installed Windows 10.

    However, I have several problems:

    1. The BIOS cannot locate the serial number of the motherboard during the boot process and sends a message to the effect. I hit the ENTER button start continues.

    I tried to access the BIOS to enter the serial number or other possible solutions, I found online. Help forum a HP had a BIOS software tool for editing of Compaq in 2000 but said it would only be on the desktop and HP staff will provide a BIOS for my laptop.

    2. I get two error messages that

      • PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of

      • PXE - M0F: Exit PXE ROM

    I didn't know all the patches for this issue, but it only delays the process of starting shortly before it continues.

    Finally, the computer starts Windows, but other problems.

    mhscholder,

    There isn't any publicly available method to update information in the BIOS.  HP only authorized service providers can update the MB after installation.  You will get this message during boot every time.  You also won't be able to run a recovery since the recovery media is looking for this information.

    The PXE errors generally occur during the initialization of the network is listed in the boot order before the hard drive.
