Satellite L500 - boot PXE ROM message

Hello

I have a Toshiba Satellite L500 only a few weeks, after a reboot I got the following error message,
"For failure of Realtek PCI-E Ethernet Controller PXE - E61 Media Test, check cable PXE - M0F outgoing PXE ROM.

I tried everything I could think off, ultimately exploitation 0 cash to restart to try to restore the factory default, however the laptop just made the turn, loading the operating system, drivers etc, restart, then back to the loading of the operating system again. I suspect the PXE - E61 error indicates the hard drive has developed a defect and will need to be replaced, but I would avoid to return under warranty if possible.

Could someone either confirm that there is nothing I can do other than return under warranty or offer me a fix?

Thank you very much
Brettie

Hi Brettie,

I had a similar problem on my laptop HARD drive became faulty after a few weeks. I think that this is not uncommon and can still happen, so all data must always be backed up on a second disc. But for example I have a laptop that is already 4 years old and the HARD drive still works like the first day! ;)

> it back under warranty if possible.
Of course, you can fix this problem under warranty. Simply contact your local authorized service provider and explain your problem. They will help you!

  • Satellite Pro 4600: PXE error message

    I got a laptop that is not working. I'm trying to re - install XP Pro.
    I changed the boot on cd first order, but it only works intermittently and jumps a lot of files.
    At the moment I have an error message;
    "PXE - E61 media test failure, cable test"
    "Intel DXE ROM PXE - MOF smoothly"

    Followed;
    "Windows was not start because the following file is missing or damaged:

    "Please re - install a copy of the above file.

    It is one of the many files that have been ignored the last time that the dvd player was working.
    It's a full XP Pro cd.

    Can anyone please tell me if it's the hard drive or dvd player that is at fault, or could the problem lie elsewhere?

    Hello

    The PXE error message usually if the laptop tries to boot from LAN.
    I put t know how you changed the boot order, but the LAN option must be set at the end of the boot order.

    I guess that the following error messages occur because of this setting.
    I recommend you this possibility.

  • Satellite A200 starts - PXE error message

    Hello

    I have a Sat A200 woo.
    The problem started when my phone froze when I download something and I turned it off using the power button.
    But now when I turn it on it comes up with this execution environment (pxe) boot before and continues to say that the media are missing and check the cable?

    Can someone tell me how to fix it

    Thank you

    Hello

    You mean this message?

    + PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable.
    + PXE - M0F: exit Intel Boot Agent. +

    This means that the operating system is not found possibly the HARD drive is dead, or the operating system has not been installed correctly.

    I recommend to check first if the HARD drive is seen in the BIOS. If it isn't then you should replace the HARD drive and should reinstall the operating system.

  • Satellite C650 - message from the PXE ROM at startup

    My 6 month old Satellite C650 (Windows 7 64-bit) started grippements this afternoon and now will not restart. She gave the following message is displayed after the Toshiba screen:

    PXE - MOF: EXIT INTEL PXE ROM
    NO BOOT DEVICE

    I think that there is a "insert the disk and press a key" after that, but I'm away from home and have not all disks (not sure if there are home either!). So I tried a few off/ons and now does not go as far as the Toshiba screen.

    At a loss - nightmare!

    Obviously HDD is not recognized correctly, but the question is why.
    It's new model of laptop, and you should contact Toshiba service as soon as possible.

    Can anyone any sense of the message above?

    Hey Buddy,

    This error message means that an incorrect boot order is set and the computer tries to start between LAN port to the internal HARD disk space. It should therefore go into BIOS setup and change the boot order. Put the HARD drive as the first boot device internal.

    Hello

    Message PXE is a typical sign of a malfunction of the HARD drive.
    Why? Because the laptop is trying to boot from LAN.
    Why LAN?
    Because other bootable devices have not been found.

    I would recommend so check the first page of the BIOS. If the HARD drive is not listed, this means that the HARD drive is faulty and should be replaced.

    At first, I must say it's really strange that something like this happens so suddenly. It seems that your laptop can not find the HARD drive as a boot device.

    Start please your laptop, then press F2 to enter the BIOS settings. Check it please on the first page if the HARD drive is recognized and registered correctly. If Yes check it please boot option in the BIOS and don't forget HARD drive is set as the first boot device.

    Please post some info on the status of the BIOS and the HARD drive.

    IM DESPERATE PLESE HELP

    Hi Nash

    The PXE error occurs because the laptop tries to start first from the local network.
    You must enter the BIOS and change the order on HARD disk or a CD. I recommend that you set the LAN option at the end of the boot order.

    The recovery CD you can buy form the Toshiba service partner in your country.
    The number on the sticker is only an OEM key. You can not use it with a Windows operating system several.

    Hello

    There are normally 3 possible reasons of this error you have.

    1. the BIOS boot order set to Network Boot: BIOS settings to check the boot order.

    2. check the cable connections between the motherboard and the hard disk.

    3. doesn't have a hard drive.

    _________________________________________

    You can check the hard drive.

    Go to the website of your computer manufacturer > search your computer specifications > know brand of hard drive > access the Hard Drive manufacturer's Web site > find and download hard drive Diagnostic software and make a record of start of it on the computer that you use to get here, following their instructions > test your hard drive to see if it has failed.

  • Satellite L500: WARNING: problem with cooling system message

    Dear Toshiba

    Some may perhaps explain to me how that happens.

    We have 2 x L500 computers laptops, one was bought and activated a day of July 2010 (Computer1)
    The other was purchased 1 day later the same store and activated the same day - 1 day later (machine 2)

    Yesterday machine 1 responded with the warning message, there is a problem with the cooling system - please turn the machine off and return it for service.

    Machine 2 responded today with the exact same message, just after turning on after 4 hours OFF... an unusual situation say you or are - this sort of built in: service to generate the functionality?
    I'm not convinced it's a stroke of luck and there is nothing wrong with a machine that I could see.

    Anyway to reset every machine has solved the problem, see how long it takes to return.
    As you may have guessed, two machines are out of warranty by a few months now.

    If any of you have a similar problem, would be happy to hear from you.

    Kind regards

    Hello

    One of my friends had the Satellite L500. As far as I know the laptop works pretty well.

    I do not know if this message was created because of a software problem, but the laptop should automatically stops down if the cooling modules would not work properly and the temperature would goes up to a higher level of m

    So I recommend watching the temp for the next time level and of course, you could get in touch with a Toshiba ASP in your country if notice plu temp or a hardware problem with the module cooling

    In the BIOS you have a choice to boot on the eSATA/player device?

    Thank you for your answer

    Excuse me for my bad English

    Nice day

    I'm not 100% sure but I think that you cannot boot from the external HARD drive.

  • Satellite L500-1XL - does boot and the screen stays black

    Hello

    I have a Satellite L500-1XL, when I turn it on the fan and lights and the hard drive light blinks several times then nothing, he's not going to the Toshiba screen remains black screen, tried ext monitor but still nothing.

    The fan always runs very quietly and the hard drive is running in, I put the hard drive in an another L500 and it is very good and can be accessed without problem, it has only 1 stick of 2 GB of RAM DDR3 and the other L500 I is DDR2 so I can't try to change the RAM. If I remove the ram should it beep or does only desktop computers do this? Mine does nothing when it is removed.

    Any help would be very useful, thank you!

    Hi gazzdowzell,

    If your laptop doesn t boot it seems to be a hardware bad working it could be everything, motherboard, BIOS, CPU, etc and it is difficult to say what exactly is the problem.

    First of all, I would like to try this:
    [What steps must be followed if your Toshiba laptop does not start? | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=21]

    If it doesn t work, please contact a service provider authorized in your country. If your laptop is under warranty, repairs are free.
    In addition if you remove the RAM and the beep of t n for laptop, it seems to be another problem. If you have removed the RAM module would be defective, the computer would have a beep.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite L300D boot up with error message

    Hey!
    Then when I start my laptop, it is said;

    The other day the screen empties and restarted with the following eror is
    PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of
    PXE MOF: outgoing PXE ROM no boot device, please insert the boot disk and press any key

    and then he mentions something about a realtek ethernet controller.

    I know that laptops trying to boot from a network or a local network, so ive changed these options in the boot menu, but any order is the start menu, it will always try and boot from a network or on the LAN.

    So I disabled the network and local network settings in the bios, restarted the laptop, and then he said something as the media not found, insert the floppy disk and press a key. So I tried to put the toshiba recovery disc in, it gets so far and then it says theres no disc present.

    Before ask you, the drive IS DETECTED in the bios. So it is recognized it...

    I'm all out of options now so I need help. is the drive broken? or what's the story?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    Yes, perhaps the HARD drive is broken because the laptop attempts to boot from LAN.
    It seems that the BIOS can not find else device startup.

    I think you need to replace the HARD drive and should install Windows system once more.

    Good luck
