Satellite Pro A200 - system does not boot

Hello

wondering if someone could help?
My Satellite Pro A200 with windows XP does not start. It starts with the Toshiba screen.
Then goes to a screen black with text where it says "PXEE61 media test failure - check cable" (I have no cable) then said out of PXErom; moves to the next screen, which lists the options: safe mode; safe mode with networking; safe mode with prompt local; Last Configeration well-known; Start windows normally.

Which have been tried and results in loading from page turns on for about 20 seconds, then just to abandon and trying all the whole process again (before flashing a blue screen) Windows.

Nothing seems to work - tried to take the battery on a... number oftimes and the power cable, but nothing helps.
It's already happened, but after a few false starts gets going - but this time he just don't come out it. I could not take others where locally, but I would prefer not to because I live in Spain and need the laptop as soon as possible and do not know, I want to leave it in some otherwise are hands to the risk of wipe them the hard drive.

So, I would be very grateful for any help as soon as possible and I fear tech short hand maybe having to explain.

Thanks a lot, a lot.

Hello

I think the problem is that the operating system is not found on the HARD drive.

The test failure PXEE61 media - check the cable appears especially if the laptop tries to boot from LAN.

Why the laptop is trying to boot from the local network?

Well,.

-option may be the LAN was chosen first in the boot order in the BIOS
-Maybe the drive is defective and so the laptop is trying to boot from LAN
-the MBR (master boot record) is may be defective

I think you should take the Toshiba Recovery CD and need to format the HARD drive and needs to be reinstalled the operating system.
This should help.

If not, then the HARD drive could malfunction and should be replaced!

    Hello

    Please not that after the installation of Win XP, the BIOS needs to be updated!
    The Toshiba page should provide a special BIOS for Win XP OS update.

    A note of juice; the laptop could be equipped with different WLan modules and so you should be aware of chip right WiFi WLan card would not work if you try to install incompatible driver!

  • Satellite Pro A200 - baterry does not load

    I have a new Toshiba Satellite Pro A200 lappy for about three months, the purchase of the France. Everything was OK until now, when loading baterry remains at 50% and wants to pay more.

    Anyone can have an ideea about this strange?

    Hello

    My first idea is a dysfunction of the accumulator.
    The problem described sounds like something wrong with the battery

    So what to do?  :|

    The battery is covered under warranty for 12 months. So a replacement has to be done for free.
    Contact the service provider allowed in your country and ask for verification of the battery.

    Maybe guys will send you a new battery immediately for a check.
    Then don t waste time and call the ASP.

    Good luck

  • Satellite Pro A200: Wireless does not work

    Hello

    Got a Satellite Pro A200 2 weeks and the wireless worked well.
    Then after a week there was a problem, try to connect. I was able to reboot the pc and he was able to connect.

    Now it just doesn't quite work.
    I can connect through the LAN and I have another laptop that connects to the router with no problems.

    I checked in the Device Manager, the wireless card works correctly and I've updated the drivers for it but no. - GB.

    Any help would be great.
    see you soon

    Hello

    Try to remove the network adapter from Device Manager wireless.
    Then restart the computer and reinstall newest WLan driver that you can download on the page of the Toshiba driver!

    Second, you could try to set up the WiFi network using an Intel ProSet Utility (but only if you have a Wlan Intel card.)

    If you have an Atheros Wlan card, then try using the Atheros Client utility for configuring Wlan

  • Satellite Pro 6100 system does not start

    Hi people,
    I have the following problem. I used my laptop long enough for thet to deplete battery and the device to go into hibernation. Given the againm battery costs, I tried the system and now it does not start.
    The leds light up fine and stay lit upwards. Just nothing happens, the FN key works. After a minute the fan will start to turn upwards and turns down again. But nothing else.
    After some time, by pressing the power button for a few seconds seems to start the machine, but it stops immediately after 30 seconds. Even if doing a memtest.

    anyboy has any idea what could cause this. I tried to remove the hard disk and start it does not affect what anyone, as does move the RAM module in the other slot. Also remove the CD/RW drive does not affect it. Remove the battery and start also give the same result.

    Hello

    Sorry, but tells you don't know is not enough for me.
    If you start Notepad, you see something on the screen?
    A Toshiba start screen appear?

    You suggested that the FN key works. Have you checked it in windows?
    AFAIK the FN keys can work only if the operating system has been launched and the drivers have been loaded. So my strange question.

    The whole thing is very strange. If nothing is displayed and the laptop cannot start, so I guess a hardware malfunction. But you know without any trial it s not easy to say what's wrong.

    Try to disconnect the laptop from the sector and remove the battery. Wait several times (30 min - 1 hour) then plug the AC adapter and try to start it.
    If it won't work and you know that other devices are ok such as RAM or HARD drive so I think that the technician must check the machine.

  • Satellite Pro A200-1MA - does not start after disassembly

    This is one for my laptop was overheating strongly and I decided to clean the radiator and the parts around it. I disassembled the computer laptop to the point where I can take off the cooler, cleaned and then I put everything back. The problem is now it won t work.

    It starts normally, past in loading windows (I have Windows 7 sp1) and then after 10 seconds, or it just stops. I tried to go to the bios, but it does the same thing after 10 seconds. First, he showed BSOD with no explanation. Just somewhere stopped working and it has to stop, but I can't figure what. CPU should be fine, it can t overheat in 10 seconds if it s cooler nor starts loading Windows in order to RAM and HARD drive may also be excluded.

    My best guess is that I'm connected to something wrong, but I disassembled it 3 - 4 times today and can t find something that is not connected. When I remove the top plastic I need to disconnect this son: speakers, power button, touchpad, keyboard and one other connectors 2 or 3 which I am sure they are USB, LAN & maybe etc...

    Then, can you at least tell me where to start? What to check?

    Hey,.

    I also can say with certainty what happened exactly, but fact is laptop disassembly is not easy and should be made only to professionals. If you take apart a laptop computer, you must be connected to the land, for example to avoid electrical damage.

    Anyway, everything you can do test your laptop with factory settings (preinstalled OS from Toshiba). If you notice the same problem it s a serious malfunction of hardware and your laptop should be verified professional people.

  • Satellite P100-160 - system does not boot

    Hi all

    I was hoping someone may be able to help me with a problem I have with my Satellite P100-160.
    I was using it the other night without power connected when my battery ran out and he stopped.
    When I reconnected the power and it works I got the usual message asking if I wanted to start as normal I did.
    To do this i Gets the icon in the lower right corner telling me the system was trying to install a new mass storage device driver.

    He couldn't find it and I haven't added or removed something in my system.
    When I stopped and went to the re - start the next time, I received a message on the start screen in the sense of:
    error
    conflict of resources - controllers USB bus pci motherboard bus: 0a, device: function 04:01

    error
    resource conflict - controller mass storage of the pci on motherboard bus: 0a, device 04 function 02

    error
    resources - bus pci motherboard conflict: 0a, device: 04, function 03

    Press F1 to resume F2 to Setup

    I cannot go into the installer, but if I take the system just hangs and stop all the hard disk activity. I have managed to do successfully start once but no more, can't get into safe mode or anything. When I have it at my local computer store the guy he looked the error and said: it's broken, the motherboard has gone and there is nothing I can do with it. Im very disappointed that the laptop is only 2 years old and I would have thought that it would last longer than that.

    So my question s are the right guys, it's broken or is there something that can be done with it? If it is broken I can access the contents of my hard drive with another laptop (the guy from the store said something on to using a hard disk enclosure and use it as an external hard drive?)

    Thanks in advance for any advice

    D

    Hello

    It seems that the motherboard is affected
    In the message error - bus motherboard pci resource conflict: 0a, device: 04, function 03 the motherboard is mentioned, so everything looks like motherboard failure.
    But to be 100% sure you should ask the authorized Toshiba service provider of the opinion.

    Good luck

    Hi, my touchpad stopped working a few months ago and have been using a USB mouse from instead.

    I tried to get it to work by installing the updates, and it is said that the deivice works in the control panel. I think it may be a setting or something that needs to be settled, because it only since I left the lid open one day and my cat was sitting on the kyboard, by opening a bunch of programs and settings. Although it is perhaps a coincidence?

    Any ideas would be apprecieted. Thank you, ash.

  • Satellite Pro A200-PSAE7E is not grateful USB Sennheiser Headset

    Can someone let me know why my toshiba Satellite Pro A200 - PSAE7E is not auto recognition USB Sennheiser headphones?

    What do you mean with grateful self their? As far I know Sennheiser those with USB connection built into the sound card, and therefore, you will need to install the drivers.

    Sennheisers as well, but with normal stereo jack and not the USB ones. You may edit the specific model name.
    And to check if your system is your helmet in any case, go to control panel - system - device manager and see if something changes, when you plug in your headphones.

  • Satellite L650-14F - system does not have WiFi

    Hi all

    I've seen a few topics about this, but I still can't solve my problems. I have brand new Toshiba Satellite L650 14th but I can't seem to use my WiFi.

    The problem is that the system does not recognize, even in the Device Manager there is nothing. I downloaded the driver from the toshiba site, but when I run it nothing happens. I also tried the BIOS update and install the package of added value, but still nothing. Also, someone mentioned editing tool of Network Device ID registry settings, I downloaded that too, but when I run also nothing happens. I did a lot of research and could not find the solution or the driver work.
    Furthermore, I have windows 7 64 bit.

    Any ideas? I really need wifi, my started classes two weeks ago and no internet at home, I can't do anything useful. Thank you.

    Hey Buddy,

    If the system doesn't recognize the WLAN card, it seems to be disabled.

    You should check the key combination FN + F8 which can enable/disable the WLAN connection.
    In addition on some laptops you can toggle the wireless LAN in the BIOS.

    Check this box!

  • Satellite Pro A200 will remain not off while AC is plugged

    My Satellite Pro A200 refuses to stay switched or hibernation mode, while the charger is plugged.
    When it is running on battery, it shuts off and Hibernate normally.

    If I understand correctly he runs a program or service that prohibits the system to Hibernate or stop.
    First to find this program or service.
    Than with msconfig.exe.
    First mark all non ms to start services. Try Hibernate. If it works half of services enable and try again. This way, you will find the service that is causing the problem.
    If this isn't a service try the same thing with the start up programs in msconfig.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite Pro M70-113 does not start up - it hangs at the logo screen

    Hello

    I have a toshiba satellite pro m70-113.

    Sometimes when my laptop turns off mode standby automatically, due to inactivity and then if I press a key on the keyboard to wake up nothing happens and I have no other choice but to it stop completely by pressing the button for 5 seconds.
    But when I restart it works well, that is to say, it starts very well.

    But today, when it is in a similar situation, I restarted the laptop, the screen move after the logo screen toshiba. I have the power on several times, but without success. It crashes just on screen toshiba logo.

    After a few restart I pressed ESC while restarting and the toshiba logo changed to the texts POST bios screen.
    And I found that the text will not go forward after having reached:
    Find disk 0:
    Maybe default feel HDD initialization...
    The captured image is here:
    http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/9986/image007sp2.jpg

    Note: this is a capture when, I don't know how the system has just begun works very well and can be seen that the HARD drive is detected normally this time. While the earlier version, it will not proceed after having reached "Found Disk 0:

    So, the problem is that at the time of the problem, the hard drive was not read / initialized or something like that.

    And I remember that when I tried to reboot my laptop and it did not work. It was running on battery and when I switched power supply that worked.

    So it is a problem that has been fixed in a bet to update BIOS, but for another laptop (see laufendspass post) his link on this forum is here:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=13143&MessageID=48143

    And my current bios version is 1.1 and an update is available for v1.30... (But I have not yet updated)

    Another problem I had met some time was same this post mentions to be corrected during the update of the bios.
    i.e. "corrected: a computer that is turned on to State power and running on battery power, may crash if the user is connected to the AC adapter while it is start.»

    So, for this, all mean that these problems can be solved by an update of the bios v1.30 which is available for my Satellite m70-113?

    Please answer.

    Hi Ashish,

    The fact that the initial POST process cannot access your hard disk suggests you that there is a possible problem with the drive, maybe he is not in place correctly when power is applied to it. The contents of the disc should be OK, then I suggest you take a good backup of your system (or at least your personal data) If you manage to get your notebook to boot successfully.

    I do not think that an update of the BIOS will affect any on that since the problem does not seem to have a certain 'trigger', and if the BIOS cannot access the hard disk then no matter what version of BIOS you are using.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite Pro L40 Wireless does not and wont stop correctly

    Hello
    just got a Satellite Pro L40-15 1 week ago and it's been downhill.

    The Wireless does not work (and yes the switch is activated and drivers installed). Sometimes windows recognizes no device when I boot.

    And when I stopped he said blocking down, but crashes just on this screen.

    Now, I'm an advanced user, so I've tried many things. Can anyone help?

    Thank you

    As a first step, I would recommend to use the Toshiba Recovery CD and renew the operating system.
    Then update the Vista of the State. I mean to install patches and fixes Vista all published.

    Check this thread:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums//thread.jspa?MessageID=107665

    Here you can see that a missing patches can have a bad influence on the wireless network card and the entire operating system!

  • System does not boot, get the white screen after preparation for auto repair

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite with Windows 8 and yesterday there were some ongoing update and must restart.  When the computer reboots, it took some time and then I got a blue screen (very quickly) who said something as she encountered a problem and needs to fix (it is really fast and I can't see the whole text).  Then goes and comes back as it is booting (with the toshiba logo) and he says prepare auto repair.  Then it goes to a white screen. I tried to get into the HARD drive recovery (power with F12) and when I select HDD Recovery and confirm Yes, it just goes to a blank screen.  I went into the Setup utility (powering now F2 while) and has chosen default install and who does not either (although it has fixed the problem with my keyboard backlight does not). Support of Toshiba said that it is the operating system, not the hard drive.  But I need a drive recovery media that will scan all.  Anyone know other options?  I have a disc of recovery of a Microsoft coming 8 Pro (dell).  Would it be an option, to use it (I got it on a flash drive) and start-up of that?  Thanks for the help.

    Hi John,.

    Thank you for the update.

    Given that you want to use the Windows 8.1 recovery disk, you won't perhaps able to start Windows 8 using Windows 8.1 because the computer may not be able to find the files of Windows 8 start to recover.

    Yes, you pouvez install 8.1 Windows using the recovery disk. However, you may not be able to perform the upgrade option when installing Windows 8.1. When you click install now and follow the instructions, you must choose the Custom Advanced option to continue installation. Choose Advanced custom options will create a folder in the C: drive (or any other partition when you do not want to install) named the Windows.old folder which expected to have all of your files and documents of previous installation and are accessible.

    Make sure you have the drivers available for the devices installed on the computer as network card, drivers etc. of video card you install Windows 8.1.

    Hope the information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

    Thank you.
