Satellite M start because past HDD USB to disk storage

I have tried changing the USB phone is stored in properties but changed the hard drive.
Now computer will not load upward.

Unfortunately, but I don t really know what you changed in your system.
What exactly happens when you start the laptop?
You get an error message?

In your case, I recommend trying to boot the operating system in safe mode. If this will not help, try to boot from the recovery disk Toshiba.

PS: What laptop do you have?

  • Cannot start OSs of HDD external USB on the Satellite NB10t-A-101

    I'm unable to install Linux on the Satellite NB10t-A-101, because it does not allow to boot from USB or install other OSs.I tried to circumvent this way: (it came with pre-installed Windows 8).

    (1) turning off SecureBoot (which I did)
    (2) putting USB at the top of the list of starting the computer.

    But it does not work.

    I have two HDD USB (a TPG, the other normal) partitioned and it s impossible for them starting with this model of Satellite. I m thinking to return it back to the store that I need to install/start several OSs.

    Hello

    Great that you are using Linux on your PC!

    You mention that you have disabled the secure boot.
    It is very good. But you don't say anything about the startup mode and nothing about what Linux you try to start.

    Most of the distros must support UEFI but that can't be true for each of them.
    If you want Win8 dualboot with a Linux distro, so you need to active UEFI and able to start in this mode distribution.
    If you use a late clone-Ubuntu, Fedora or OpenSuse, you should be fine!

    Another clue could be to take the USB key and try to start another PC from him.
    Which will give a clearer picture of where the problem lies: on your key or the compatibility of firmware NB10 & distro Linux of your choice.

    If you try to boot from a USB - HDD, I'm afraid I'm a bit at a loss as I've never tested.

    I hope this helps!

  • Satellite M50: Windows did not start because of a corrupted system file

    Hi all.

    I have a problem with my laptop Satellite M50. When you turn on the laptop, a message appears: "Windows did not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \windows\system32\config\system»

    I am aware of my product recovery CD-Rom and have inserted - however, I don't want to reformat my HARD drive as I have files I back (foolishly) not upward.

    Is there another method to repair the corrupted file without having to wipe all files on the HARD drive? (I don't have an XP CD - the operating system is loaded OEM when the laptop was purchased)

    Thank you very much!

    Hello

    Hmm, using the repair console could be a good way to copy or replace the damaged or missing files on the HARD drive.
    BUT you need to start the console of Windows XP CD of original Startup Repair.
    Without this CD, you will not be able to repair the operating system. The Toshiba Recovery CD contains only image files and does not start the repair console.

    Now the question is; How to back up data.
    You can remove the HARD drive and connect it to the PC second via the external USB HARD disk controller.
    Then you should be able to copy important files on the second computer.
    After backup files you can start the installation from the recovery CD.

    Good luck

  • Satellite A300-19 q - how to start with an external USB drive

    Hi all!

    I have a (old) TOSHIBA Satellite A300-19 q bought in 2008. I wanted to do a clean install of Windows 7 by reformatting my HD. The problem is that my internal DVD drive no longer works. So I tried to boot from the Windows 7 DVD installation with an external USB drive.
    Unfortunately, I couldn't find a way to boot from USB devices in my BIOS options.
    My BIOS is up to date (version 4.20) from Toshiba Web site.

    So I was wondering, does anyone know if the A300-19 q can boot from USB devices?

    Thank you in advance.

    I have A300 at home but I never tried to start with an external USB device.
    Start your laptop and press F12 to get into the boot menu. There must be USB option. What happen when you try to use it?

    Please contact your support person to report this problem. »

    A blue screen is suddenly pop up when I was surfing on a Web site, the warning above in black and white was shown after that I took the battery and restart windows.
    I thought it was just a simple step if I got the recovery disk, but I was wrong.

    The recovery procedure was very well finished 100%. But after pressing a button, the above kept warning appears, no matter how many times I had reinstalled by the recovery disc or (each time 100%) or by using the full version of Windows Xp.

    Nor he worked by the formatting of the HD I connected with a link IDE2USB for laptop XP of my friend, nor modify another HD.

    I excluded the problem with HD, so I guess maybe it's that the BIOS has been hacked (?) I downloaded the update of the BIOS to see if it works or not?
    but the result was disappointing. IT just stop at step 4 of the procedure of updating, it freezes just to flash initiating step.

    I want to remove the CMOS battery for a few seconds, but I'm not that pro and I could cause damage caused by improper handling.

    Could someone tell me what happens to my computer and how do I show this problem?

    Hello Wai

    If your device has trouble after that recovery image installation is probably hardware related issue. You can enter the settings of the BIOS as usual? If this isn't the case, I fear that the BIOS chip is damaged. It happen if BIOS update is interrupted shortly matter the reason may be.

    Removing the CMOS battery doesn t work like on desktps. Forget it!

  • Satellite M30: Windows cannot start because a file is missing

    Error message: Windows cannot start because a file is missing.
    \Windows\system32\config\system

    You can repair from ordinary cd and use "r" for repair.

    How to use recovery cd for this... It does not work.

    Hello

    It's not easy to use the repair mode because the recovery image file CD. The other way is that you try to start the operating system is the safe mode and look if the lack of files exist in the C:\I386 folder. If not, well I think that the only way is to recover the system with the recovery CD.

    Good bye

  • Satellite M30x not recognizing not all USB ports

    My Satellite M30x has recently ceased to recognize all USB devices are connected that he, being a huge super biff computer I can only assume all my USB ports are totally exhausted.

    If anyone has any other theories id be more than happy to hear... Thanks :)

    Hello

    Something similar happened on my laptop. The laptop has stopped to recognize the external device (USB HDD). Someone told me that it happened because I used the safely remove. Usually, if you want to for example disconnect the USB HDD or USB key, you must use the remove before disconnecting the device from the laptop.
    I just deleted all ports USB device and Manager after restarting the laptop operating system recognized all the USB ports again. Further, I have connected my external HARD drive, and it worked!

    I put t know which external USB devices you use, but sometimes the machines cannot be allowed because the ports USB don t provide enough power.
    In this case, you can disable the mode without power failure in the USB hub properties in Device Manager.

    Good luck

  • Satellite L20-100 cannot access a USB Flash drive

    I recently bought Toshiba Satellite L20-100
    I installed a USB in Kingston datatraveler flash drive and windows recognized it without problem.
    but when I open my computer there is no icon for the reader (it works on another computer well).
    the drive is recognized in Device Manager, but it is not given a drive letter.
    When I open disk management and try to give it a drive letter it still does not show on my computer even after a reboot.

    Although I can access the disk management flash drive and can open, copy & paste the files & to her.
    same problem happened with a card reader.
    other USB devices like cable modem & mouse work well

    What is the solution

    Hello

    Is it possible that the USB is not formatted? Try changing the file system on the USB key.
    You can also try to change the drive letter because the letter assigned automatically sometimes gives some conflicts with other readers.

    Second possibility:
    You can try to clean all the USB stored device settings and let Windows refresh their.

    Create a file with Notepad containing the following lines and save it as a BOOKMARK. REG
    -cut after this line-
    REGEDIT4

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Session Manager\Environment]

  • Satellite A20: BIOS update to support USB booting

    Hello

    Does anyone know if there is a version of BIOS for a satellite A20 that supports booting from USB devices (except the drive, because that is already supported)

    I need this is because my cd drive is bust. And I'm a student, so I can't afford a new intern, but I have an external... So I want to use that one for the recovery process...

    I don't know if I can ask this, but can't I somehow change the bios that it WILL support the external dvd drive, I know this is not recommended at all, but I'm really really desperate :(

    Can someone help me?

    As far as I know that something like that does not exist. Your laptop is quite old and there is not much support for her especially BIOS support.

    Try to find the MS-DOS driver for this hard disk external. Start the laptop with floppy and use this driver for your external device from the device.

  • Error "this application has failed to start because normaliz.dll was not found. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

    Original title: error explorer.exe, Normaliz.dll is missing please help me about the issue.

    Hello

    I get the error "this application has failed to start because normaliz.dll was not found. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem"Please help me!

    Well - so much for the expertise of committed Microsoft Support Engineer 'experts', but no answer to what I expected.

    See how it works for you:

    If you see a message like this:

    Explorer.EXE - unable to locate component: this application has failed to start because Normaliz.dll was not found. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

    It is in the case Log:

    Event type: Information
    Event source: Application Popup
    Event category: no
    Event ID: 26
    Description:

    Application popup: Explorer.EXE - unable to locate component: this application has failed to start because Normaliz.dll was not found. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

    Start explorer.exe, but the normaliz.dll file.  If explorer.exe is not able to run, you will not be able to do much with your system until the replacement of normaliz.dll.

    You can click OK for errors and finished up in the Task Manager where you can try to fix it.  The message can keep popping up from time to time, while you're fixing it, so just click OK to close the message.

    If normaliz.dll is missing, you can copy it from a working system to the system afflicted with the same version of XP and Internet Explorer.

    You will get a good copy and put it on a floppy disk, thumb drive etc and copy it to your system plagued by using Manager tasks.

    The normaliz.dll file must be located in the c:\windows\system32 folder and therefore is not a Windows file protected, making the Microsoft Support Engineer 'experts' suggest running sfc/scannow, which is just another one of their prosecution of wild goose that will not work, he'll never work and it will only waste your time (and they don't tell you how to run either - if explorer.exe does not start).

    Then engaged Microsoft Support Engineer 'experts' will offer to you develop a copy of the file from the XP installation CD you probably haven't, but it is also not on your XP installation CD, and you will have the same problem try their suggestions to 'try' to start in any any Mode without failure, so this will not help you.  These "experts" seem to think that the Safe Mode boot or boot will replace magically missing files, but it doesn't.

    You also will be able to properly run a browser on the system afflicted to go on Internet download one.

    There is a large computer security risk in the normaliz.dll from some website download.  The best idea is to get a copy of normaliz.dll from another computer that has the same version of XP and IE and replace it from a USB device (which you can access from the Manager tasks), or using a system that works, you can download one of my SkyDrive.

    You can still use the Task Manager to run the system restore and bring it back, but I've never tried and never use SR in all cases.

    If you have recently done a bunch of Microsoft updates, you may have also gotten IE8 so maybe that something was wrong here although the normaliz.dll is the same for each version.

    When you see the error, you can click beyond it and eventually arrived at your screen background image where you can press CTRL-ALT-DEL to start Task Manager. TM, you can click file, new task, Browse and edit the menu drop-down "Files of type" to all files that you can see all the files in folders.

    Go to c:\windows\system32 to see if normaliz.dll is really missing. If the error appears again while browsing, just click OK to get past it.  The explorer.exe tries to run and cannot until the missing file is replaced.

    If it's the only thing missing, you can get one from a working system of the same type as yours, copy on a Flash DRIVE or a floppy disk and always using TM, to browse, copy and paste it where it should be or you can download one of my SkyDrive.

    TM, you can still access your thumb or any other medium the same disk by navigating, copy, paste, etc very well all work.  You use TM to navigate to your thumb or floppy disk, copy the normaliz.dll good and then paste it in the c:\windows\system32 folder, where it is supposed to be.

    If things get worse, just return to TM and remove the file back where you were in first place and continue troubleshooting.

    Using a system that works, you can also download a copy of the file from my SkyDrive and put it on a floppy or USB thumbdrive and networks diskettes for the distressed system.  Sandalenet means wear you the system afflicted by hand.

    I downloaded a copy of XP Pro SP3 file you need on my SkyDrive (everyone has a SkyDrive for file sharing).

    You can download it and when you do, place a copy of the file in these two folders (assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive):

    c:\Windows\System32

    Here is the link to my SkyDrive and you can get the file you need here:

    https://SkyDrive.live.com/?CID=6a7e789cab1d6f39&ID=6A7E789CAB1D6F39! 311

    When you see the files available for download, you can not see the file extension (.exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, .zip, etc.), but when download you them they will have the right extension.

    When you download the file (especially if you use Internet Explorer), when you get a chance to save the file, your browser is unable to save the file with an extension (by example, .exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, .zip, etc) then you will need to manually add the extension appropriate to the file when you download the file before you save it.

    You can download the file without the extension, and then rename the file to add the appropriate extension.  You do not want to use a file called normaliz when the name of the file should really be called normaliz.dll (if the downloaded file has no extension, you will need to change the name of the file to add the appropriate extension to make it work.

    You then put the downloaded files in the correct folders on your system.

    That may not solve all your problems, but at least you will be spending this part and we can then fix the rest.

    Which Windows installation you want to connect?

    (to cancel, press enter)

    What do I put here?

    You must first start on doing something so USB drive a bootable Hiren.

    Here's how:

    I'll recommend you use Hiren boot CD (it will go also to a flash/USB stick/USB).

    It's good for you, because there a lot of tools more on that on the Recovery Console CD of XP, doesn't your administrator passwords and you will not have to futz round in your BIOS, if any afflicted system has SATA drives - Hiren can deal with this.

    You will have a bunch of great tools that you have in XP... Recovery Console an editor of the register, adjustable password and an office that resembles Windows XP so you will feel comfortable flexibility.

    You can easily copy your personal data (documents, pictures, music) to an external drive.

    A system of work, start by downloading the latest version on Hiren Boot CD from here (it is a substantial download but worth it):
    http://www.hirensbootcd.org/download/    (look to the bottom of the page).

    Unzip the Hiren to a folder where you can find it.  There's a Hiren. BootCD.15.x.iso that you have to then.

    Hiren was instructed to make a bootable USB drive that you can use, but it takes you first burn the .iso to a CD image file and a few other measures, so I suggest another way and here's how:

    Download RUFUS 1.3.2 or whatever the latest version is here (read a few things on the page so you can learn more on this subject):

    http://Rufus.AKEO.IE/

    I will warn to be careful that don't accidentally format you a hard disk - don't forget your USB key is in and know what the drive letter!  This part makes me still a little nervous, so be careful.

    Launch of RUFUS and all default values should be fine for the device, choose letter of your USB drive, quick tag format FAT32, it if you want and in the Format options box, click on the little icon that looks like a CD and a window will open.  Navigate through this dialogue to point to the folder that contains the Hiren. BootCD.15.x.iso that you have unpacked above and the box should change to say the image ISO (RUFUS includes the Hiren ISO file).

    Double check you have the right device selected in the top (NOT you HDD) click Start, acknowledge receipt of the warning and let it finish (it will take a little time) it copies the files.   Hiren ISO is also a good size.

    When RUFUS is finished, it will say "DONE" at the bottom.

    Put the USB in the afflicted machine and reset/reboot and regardless of the button you press to get a boot menu where you can select the USB drive as first boot device (it's F11 for me).  If you do not see a start menu choice, you will need to set your BIOS to boot from USB first instead of the HARD disk.

    When the Hiren menu displays, choose the XP Mode of Mini and it will start loading (slowly from a USB key) and finally, you should see a windowsy looking for office.  You should recognize the part and feel uncomfortable, but it is not your office - the office of the Hiren!

    Remember: you do not start on your hard drive, - you started in the Office of the Hiren.

    A way to check the drive for errors is to open my computer and right-click on your afflicted player and choose Properties, tools, error, check checking now... put a check mark in the boxes and then start.

    Sometimes that works, then you can also click on start, run and in the type box:

    cmd

    Click OK to open a command prompt window and enter the following command (assuming that XP is installed on your C drive)

    CHKDSK c: /r

    This disk check can last a long time (perhaps several to several hours) depending on the size of the volume, the amount of data on the volume and what the disk check finds to do.  You may need to run more than once.

  • Satellite U200 - 181 built-in HDD ERROR

    "Toshiba Satellite U200-181", I bought 2 weeks ago. Recently (2-3 days ago) I have problem with built-in HARD drive.

    So the problem is that sometimes I get the "Built-in HARD drive ERROR" message when starting the laptop. This integrated "Disk ERROR" message appears from time to time and the system shuts down the HARD drive starts, but can start from other bootable devices. First time where the built-in "Disk ERROR" message took place, he was accompanied by a lot of strange pop sound beating from the inside of the laptop. All others

    "HARD disk ERROR" messages were not so strong and strange beating pops, but always with some pop sounds (not as strong as the premiere).

    To identify possible problems, I saved S.M.A.R.T. data log (see annex 1).

    Additional information: after I bought the laptop I ve made successful update BIOS version 1.40 version 1.50 strictly according to Toshiba site official instructions. After BIOS upgrade system works well, no ERRORS, no exceptions. But 3 days ago I received the message"built-in HARD disk ERROR '."

    Any ideas? Thank you.

    To my knowledge, the error sometimes because the BIOS can not find the HARD drive as a source of start-up. Perhaps because of the loss of connection or / and a malfunction of the HARD drive.
    Hmm, have you checked if the HARD drive is connected properly?
    The losing may be a strange reason for the beating POPS.

Maybe you are looking for
