Satellite M105-S322 - HDD does not detect

My laptop does not detect the hard drive. I press F2 to go into BIOS and it says hardrive No. I reinstalled the hard drive, but it still says the same thing. I have test the SATA hard drive on the desktop and it detects its.

What seems to be wrong? Help, please.

> I have test the SATA hard drive on the desktop and it detects its.
This looks like your HARD disk on the motherboard controller is faulty
But before that you exchange the motherboard but I would test another HARD drive maybe the HARD drive is faulty and will recognize only on certain computers or mothers.

If a new drive HARD doesn t work too, your motherboard needs to be replaced.

  • Satellite Pro L300 - HDD is not detected

    My Satellite L300 hanged while I used it. I tried to restart, it just wouldn't start. It shows this message on the screen "no bootable device-insert boot disk and press any key" tried, but it still does not work. Then I tried using the restore disc. It then displays a message on the scree that the hard drive is not mounted which means that it does not detect the presence of the HARD drive.

    What can I do?

    Hey,.

    This looks like the HARD drive is not recognized, so your computer isn't able to boot and disk HARD recovery doesn't work correctly

    I recommend you check the BIOS if the HARD drive is recognized correctly. Usually in the BIOS, you should see the correct HARD drive model number and it would mean recognized s. Otherwise, the HARD drive is faulty and must be replaced

  • Satellite P10 304 BIOS does not detect HARD and CDROM drive

    My HDD p10-304 has recently failed.
    I bought a new 60 GB western digital 2.5 drive "and installed today.

    At startup, the BIOS does not detect the drive, but also, it does not detect the CD-ROM drive.
    This makes me think that maybe it's not the player after all, maybe the onboard IDE / motherboard.

    I'm kinda stuck, so it's a new drive should work fine, and I have no way to test the motherboard.

    The only difference is that the insulation on the original drive sleeve should be reduced by half.
    The bit important (low, where the circuits would otherwise affect metal) is always there, it is the
    Few albums I had to remove but that should be no problem.

    Someone at - it suggestions?

    Thank you, Stu.

    Hello

    What happens if the HARD drive is not connected to the motherboard? The BIOS recognize the CD/DVD drive correctly?

    You bought the HARD drive compatible? To my knowledge the Mobile supports a HARD drive with interface IDE (ATA-5) increased.

    But as you said possibly the motherboard failures and he would be advised to contact the technician during a particular test

  • Satellite Pro C660-1NQ does not detect the WLan network

    Hi guys,.

    We have a Toshiba Satellite Pro C660-1NQ here that does not at all, detect the wireless network
    I checked the Device Manager and the wireless card does not show here.

    I tried scanning for new hardware, but nothing was found. I tried to turn the wireless off tension with the function and the keys F8 but not yet showing in Manager devices or any new hardware...

    Any ideas as to what I can try next?

    See you soon,.

    Hello

    It seems that the laptop would support the Wlan Atheros 802.11agn card.
    Usually the Atheros Wlan card must appear in Device Manager as on the menu network cards.
    If it s not appear do not then I recommend that you install the WLAN driver which can be downloaded here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/?page=downloads

    Choose the Atheros Wireless LAN Adapter Windows 7 (32/64) 9.2.0.419.0 or newer
    I hope this helps to detect the WiFi chip!

  • Satellite A300 - S-video does not detect TV

    Dear all
    Last week, I bought your new product: Toshiba Satellite A300

    I liked its release specifications specially s-video.
    When I arrived at my house, I have it plugged into my TV:
    Bomba Toshiba 29A3MJ
    http://www.Toshiba-Gulf.com/site/product/prd_details.asp?prdid=1044&CATID=123

    I used S-Video/RCA cable:
    http://www.accessories-shop.NET/images/5FT_4_PIN_S-VIDEO_to_3_RCA_TV_male_Cable.jpg

    Then, I put the TV fashion which I usually use to another laptop.
    I kept clicking on Fn + F5 on the satellite phone without exploitation.
    Nothing has been posted on the TV screem.
    Before, I used to connect to HP Pavilion dv2000 in the same TV using the s-video and it worked fine.

    Please advice how to solve this problem.
    Best regards

    Hello

    Usually, this should work.
    Both devices must be OFF. Connect then the laptop and the TV using this cable.
    Turn on the TV and the laptop starts.

    If the use of the FN + F5 will not detect the image on the TV then I would recommend checking the settings in your graphics card properties.

    I put t know what graphics card you have, but my Satellite phone has been equipped with the Intel graphics card and I can change the settings in Control Panel-> Intel GMA graphics card.

    Maybe your laptop supports the ATI card. If these parameters were in ATI catalyst.

    PS: Check if you are using the latest version of the BIOS and the latest graphics card driver too.

  • Satellite L755D - 14 c does not detect Bluetooth after installing Win 7

    I have laptop Toshiba Satellite L755D - 14 c and I used to use my internal Bluetooth in my old system of operating Windows 7 64 bit, then I reinstalled Windows 7 and all of a sudden the Bluetooth went

    I tried to installed the driver but nothing happened, as the device was not there at all.
    Now I have Windows 8 64-bit on my laptop.

    Can you help me with my problem?

    Hello

    Satellite L755D - 14 c belongs to the PSK36E which was equipped with the Atheros WLan card series. This wireless network card supports BT as well.
    Because of this, you need to install additional software called Atheros Bluetooth Filter Driver Package. But this step is necessary only running Windows 7!

    If you what to know how the product?
    Install first the Atheros WLan card driver, then the Atheros Bluetooth Filter Driver Package and, finally, the battery Toshiba BT.

  • Satellite A30 921: XP does not detect the Firewire IEEE 1394 port

    I have a satellite A30 921.
    There I link port aswell. My problem is that im trying to connect my camcorder dv via I LINK and this is the first time since I bought this laptop. But XP won't dectecting it.

    Can someone help me on this problem?

    Hmm, it seems that the satellite A30 921 supports really 4pol IEEE1334 Firewire/iLink interface. Therefore, it should be possible to connect your external camcorder without big problems.

    May I ask if you are using Win XP with SP2 preinstalled?
    You should do it.

    AFAIK the SP2 contains a bug which has affected the firewire port.
    But it has been resolved with the additional patch. Check this box:

    + * Performance of 1394 devices may decrease after you install Windows XP Service Pack 2 * +.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/885222

    I also recommend to check the firewire port in Device Manager.
    It would be desirable to remove it from the list of Device Manager, then restart the laptop for reinstalling the port once more.

  • Re: Hitachi Drive Fitness Test (DFT) does not detect the HDD on Satellite A660

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A660 PSAW3C-047017 with a HARD MK6465GSX Toshiba drive. After experience, some consecutive failures of start-up, I was told on the Toshiba forums to use Drive Fitness Test (DFT of Hitachi).

    I burned the ISO to a CD and booted from it (I must press F12 for boot options and select the optical drive), which is to run successfully. However, it does not detect my drive HARD - the list is empty.

    Is there something I need to do to make visit to DFT?

    I cannot commend this third part software features, but I want to know if you still have these failures to start your portable computer satellite?

    What's the problem?

  • Cannot install Win 8 - Satellite Pro C660 does not detect HARD drive

    Hello

    My HARD drive died, so I decided to upgrade my Satellite Pro C660 - 1 9 to an SSD.
    I made a USB bootable with Win8 and starts very well.

    The problem is that it does not detect my SSD, so I can proceed with the installation.
    SSD appears in BIOS but not in Windows Installer.
    He said that there is a missing driver.

    I downloaded the AHCI drivers (XP, only ones available) and even in this case, after you have selected the only rider that appears, it says no new device found.

    I tried to change the SATA from AHCI mode to compatibility mode and it's the same thing...

    What can I do?

    Thanks for the help.
    Best regards
    Bruno Moreira

    More old Windows XP need a driver AHCI Intel's but I think this isn't a problem with SATA driver missing because as far as I know Windows 8 as well as Win 8.1 already contains the drivers to recognize the SSD or HARD disk drive.
    In addition, the installation of the OS should be possible even if the driver would be added for this procedure, you must use the "compatibility" mode
    As you say, the compatibility mode is not working too, so I think there is another problem.

    However, page driver Toshiba also provides a driver Intel RST (Intel Rapid Storage Technology) (Windows 8 - updated) you can try to add during the installation of the OS.

    But I m wondering if you would be able to install this Win 8 on common SATA HDD.
    Have you tried to format the SSD using a different computer, then install Win 8?
    Give it a try.

  • Satellite A500-19W does not detect battery

    Hello

    I have a portable Satellite A500-19W which is 6 months old.

    I bought this laptop while I was in Egypt and now I've moved (Dubai) UNITED Arab Emirates.

    Lately my laptop started suddenly does not detect battery.

    To remedy this that I have to remove the battery and clean the terminals then re - put the battery and turn it on and it's OK.

    This happened twice this week and caused my data loss because the charger is disconnected (if the charger is connected, the laptop computer continue to work, but the battery indicator does not light up)

    Now, my questions are the following
    1 - is this problem under warranty?
    2 - should I pay for anything when getting this laptop in service in Dubai noting that I bought in Egypt?
    3. is there a cure for this problem without going through the service center?

    Thank you

    1 / Yes. These questions should be covered by the warranty. Material is junk.

    2 / the nearest service contact and ask, but I'm sure you don't have to pay for the repair. The two countries are countries in EMEA, and avoid any kind of problems.

    3 / it is not much, you can do about it so please contact and explain the situation. They should check your laptop and find a reason why this happens.

    Don t waste your time and contact the closest service. If you have need for addresses and phone numbers you can find on http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads > find an ASP.

  • The battery does not detect my Satellite A10

    My laptop is old enough, as you can see, and I had some problems with my HARD drive several months ago, so I had to change it (HDD). Now I have a 'FUJITSU MHV2040AH' HARD drive. Since then, my laptop is still able to work using a battery, but it does not detect that.

    It "thinks" that it is still connected to the adapter. And, in addition, he writes that 255% battery life remains. He continues to write, even when it is disconnected from the adapter, and when the battery is finished, the laptop just goes out, without any warning messages.

    However, in fact the battery recharges when the laptop is connected to the adapter.
    What can advise you?

    PS Sorry if my English is not good and there are a few errors. I am from Russia :)

    So no one is able to answer my question? Where are you, supporters? :)
