Satellite Pro Boot Loop

I have a Satellite Pro with XP, whenever it is started on the screen becomes past start Windows XP goes to "Starting Windows" and then restarts.
Any help appreciated. Thank you

Hello virbs

As said Tom t is a bad situation. It will be interesting to know why it is happening. Have you installed software, or is there another reason for this?

If this happens after installing that some programs try to start the machine in safe mode and try to remove the installed program. The last option is to reinstall the OS using the recovery CD.

Good bye

  • Satellite Pro L10 - Unmountable Boot Volume

    My Satellite Pro L10 loops in the boot process. After the Windows XP splash screen, the following error messages appears:... Unmountable boot volume... Technical information: Stop: 0x000000ED...

    I know that is nothing exceptional and do a full restore would solve the problem. But I don't want to lose the data (which are of course not saved). I tried a Windows XP disk, but it does not start from the cd/dvd drive by pressing F12 or <0>and change the boot order...

    Can anyone help please?

    Hello

    Hmm, the volume not mountable startup error message appears especially if the HARD drive may not be recognized during initialization. Why? Well, maybe the HARD drive failures or the master boot record is defective!

    If you don t want to recover the laptop, you can try to boot from the XP CD (C press immediately after switching on the laptop) and to start the repair console.

    In the repair console, you can use the command chkdsk/p and after that, you could fix the disk main boot using the fixboot command or / and fixmbr.

    If this does not help, the new installation of the OS is that you as a last resort.

    PS: If you want to save the data you can try to remove the HARD drive and try to connect it via external USB HDD controller to another computer.

  • Satellite Pro A60-138 PSA65E - cannot boot from c WEIRD

    Hello
    I bought this laptop on ebay, with no cd or manual.

    Satellite Pro A60 GR
    MODEL PSA65E-01K032GR NUMBER

    Hard drive is formatted.
    I tried to install xp, because I start the laptop it just says: "control system.
    Then press [F1]. "If I press F1, it tries to read the cd and gives up after a few seconds.

    If there is no cd in the cd drive there simply nothing.
    I tried to start the bios menu but everything works,(F12,F8,del) key.

    Is there something I can do?
    installing drivers or anything like that?

    Hello

    In order to access the BIOS please press F2, then ESC.
    This should load the BIOS and you can change the boot order there.

    In addition, you can press F12 at the beginning.
    This will allow the menu on the screen where you can choose the STRANGE as a source of start-up.

    But are you able to boot from another CD?
    The CD/DVD drive is unable to read the disc, and therefore the boot process fails

    You could also burn this disc Win XP on another CD and could use the new disk to the start I did with my old laptop because the CD/DVD drive didn't read the old CD.

    Have you checked if the CD/DVD drive is recognized correctly in the BIOS?

  • Satellite Pro A200: How to create Dual boot; Vista & XP using the recovery CD

    I just bought a laptop Satellite Pro A200, which was supplied with the product for Vista and XP Recovery discs.
    The license specifically Vista also XP licenses.
    Can I set up a dual boot so that I can boot to Vista or XP? If so, how?

    I would also like a third boot, Red Hat Linux 9.
    Any comments?

    Hmmm. Usually it s possible to use two or more operating systems on the computer, but as far as I know the Toshiba Vista recovery CD formats whole disk when installing Vista and this will lead to the loss of the OS installed.
    I m not 100% sure on the recovery of the newest XP CD called RECON doesn t CD include an expert mode which allows to choose between the different partitions.

    So I guess that each use the recovery CD will format the HARD drive and erase the installed data. But of course, you can try to install the two BONES and to check if the restore XP CD allows to choose the second part of the installation of the OS.

    If it does not, it seems that you will need to an original XP from Microsoft CD or the original CD of Vista to use the two BONES.

  • Satellite Pro L870-18R - no boot after upgrade CPU

    Hello

    Bought the "SATELLITE PRO L870-18R" alongside a "Intel Core i7-3740QM 2.70 GHz FCPGA988 L3 6 MB 4 Cores CPU 2.70 GHz" to upgrade the processor and get a beautiful machine.

    Boots of machine as expected with its stock i3, but white LED will blink once and no post when upgrading the processor is applied.
    Is their a bios that will support this CPU, otherwise what is the max processor that toshiba will move to. Little bit discouraged, I can't upgrade.

    Is their a bios that will support this CPU

    BIOS updates are not released to allow new media of CPU, but the BIOS updates are released to fix possible problems for laptop...

    If this is not the case, what is the max processor that toshiba will move to. Little bit discouraged, I can't upgrade.

    Still is it that manufacturers of mobile phones do not support updates on own laptops... This means that there is no further information on the possible processors and supported.

    However, a new processor usually requires a BIOS and chipsets support... so in case you want to make these updates (of course only at your own risk) then you will need to use a CPU that is supported by the Intel Chipset. But there is no guarantee that this notebook would functions even if you use a processor that would be supported by the chipset...

  • Satellite Pro M70-220 - how to start the Advanced Boot Menu

    Which key have to press on my Satellite Pro M70 - 220 starting Win XP, in order to enter the "Advanced Start Menu" - in other words, the menu that gives various boot options, such as safe, last good start Congiguration, start Windows Normal Mode, etc. ?

    On my old laptop Satellite 5105 - S702, it was the F8 key, but by pressing the F8 key on my M70 Pro does not bring up the 'Start Advanced Menu".

    The Advanced Start Menu came on its own a few days previously after an abnormal stop, so it seems that it does not exist on the M70 Pro.

    Thanks for any advice anyone has to offer.

    AlanCB

    Hello

    The Advanced Boot Menu can be reached by pressing the F8 key.
    It s a Windows menu basic and it s any laptop it is.
    It should work on all computers.

    Maybe you can not activate the Start Menu advanced because the Windows operating system is confused upward.

  • Satellite Pro U500 - multi-boot with Win 7 and Win XP

    Good gentlemen,

    Please help me with this query I have.

    I just bought a Satellite Pro U500 with Windows 7 installed. I also have a TOSHIBA Windows XP product supplied with the laptop recovery DVDs. Was told I could downgrade to XP with the DVD.

    I want to install Win XP in addition to the existing installation of Windows 7 on a different partition, I intend to create.
    Can I create a create a separate partition and then use the recovery TOSHIBA Windows XP product DVD to install Win XP on it?

    Am just worried I might spoil the on the laptop's recovery partition?

    Basically, I want to be able to run the current Windows 7 and Win XP on my machine and want to know the best way to do it without damaging the existing TOSHIBA recovery partitions.

    I want to use the recovery DVDs TOSHIBA Windows XP product to install XP on a new partition with windows 7 OS.

    Thank you

    STRAPPING

    Hi-band,
    + downgrade to xp + means that you are not allowed to use your win7 installation any longer...

    ask problem "dual-boot":
    burn a DVD restore *, choose from the start menu

    After that, you can choose partition wich you like "sacrifice" for xp and install it...
    XP can't 'see' the install of win7, but you need a Boot Manager to boot both systems (xp is crushing the win7 boot code)

    or you go the other way:
    installation of xp and then install win7
    This has the advantage that win7 offers you the ability to boot xp from the bootmenu.
    in both options, you lose the hard drive recovery!

  • Satellite L50 - A - 1 6: "boot loop" at power on

    Hello world.

    I have a Satellite L50 - A - 1 6 (just bought). I changed the HARD drive partitions in order to better utilize the space. Then I tried to create the recovery from the preinstalled recovery partition disk (However this was not changed!), but it did not work. It was posted this message: "the recovery partition was not found.

    So I tried to restore factory settings (as explained in the guide, press '0' at the beginning upward).
    After that, my laptop computer goes into "boot loop", and it continues to go in the boot loop every time I turn it on. The boot loop here is summerized: + logo (leading to innovation) toshiba-> error message (.. .has been detected a problem... etc etc)-> black screen-> logo toshiba (leading to innovation)-> ecc. ECC. +

    The only possible operations are:
    -to power the laptop off (by turn off by pressing the key)
    -to access Bios (by pressing the F2 key)
    but later, the laptop comes back still in boot loop.

    I also tried to set up an order of boot device for the use of tools like "live recovery cd" or similar (also USB)... but nothing... He always goes in the city "boot loop".

    Any suggestion to have the correct start of my laptop?

    Thanks in advance.

    >. I changed the HARD drive partitions in order to better utilize the space. Then I tried to create the recovery from the preinstalled recovery partition disk (However this was not changed!), but it did not work. It was posted this message: "the recovery partition was not found.

    This does not surprise me. You have changed the partition table, and therefore the partitions of HARD drive will be more found.

    This does not work for the reason that I mentioned above. The disk HARD recovery isn't possible now!

    I recommend you to use stop force switch:

    Hello.

    XP and Seven is installed in dual-boot on my laptop and I use EasyBCD to choose which system I want to start.

    To start XP, I need to enable "Compatibility" (Controller SATA in BIOS mode) and seven is "AHCI" must be activated.

    Is there a way for my two OS was started without making changes in the bios?
    Y at - it an update to correct this problem (or alternative)?

    Thank you in advance.
    Marc

    Yes you can do it but I'm afraid, you must reinstall Windows XP Home edition m.
    Why? Because before beginning to install Windows XP Home edition, you must change it to AHCI mode, launch the installation of Windows XP Home edition and before you start you need to load the SATA driver (via F6 I think).

    Long time ago, we have discussed a lot about this on this forum then use the advanced search anc check options other postings on this subject.

  • For Satellite Pro M70 boot sequence

    Issues related to the:

    1. What is the default setting for the boot to the Satellite Pro M70 sequence?

    2. What is the procedure for changing the boot during the start-up phase sequence?

    3. What is the most 'sensitive' boot sequence, with & without an attached external floppy drive?

    Thank you
    AlanCB

    Well, I'm not 100% sure but I think the default start setting is:
    DISK HARD-CD/DVD-FDD-LAN
    However, you can set and change parameters in the Toshiba HWSetup that is located in Control Panel.

    Just FYI: by pressing a key during POST, you can choose the boot device.
    D - default system
    U USB FDD
    1 - disc HARD bed
    2 - slim select bay (if available) HDD
    C - CD rom
    N - network LAN
    P - PC HDD (PCMCIA) card

    But these options are not always available.

  • Satellite Pro P100 - cannot boot from external USB DVD

    My internal DVD player on my Toshiba Satellite Pro P100 failed, and my windows is broken.
    So I bought an external DVD drive to boot from, so I can recover the system using the product recovery DVD.

    Now, he actually goes ahead and starts from the DVD. But once in the setup it gives me the message: "ERROR: file Setenv.ini D:\Setenv.ini or X:\Tools\Setenv.ini not found!

    So I went ahead and checked if the file was... it was... but it is on Drive E:\ (probably because it's a USB device I'm starting from)

    -J' did some research and found that I needed to run the command: X:\tools\recogui /FE: say the recovery my files were actually on drive E:-which has helped a little... until I got a new error where it was always looking for the *. TPA file on drive D: eventhough I have via recogui had specified otherwise.

    Now what do I do to understand everything is to the recoveryprocedure on drive E: and not D:, as he seems to think?

    As I am in the middle of a period of review, quick response would be GREATLY appreciated :)

    Bad new boyfriend!
    Boot from external DVD USB drive is NOT possible!

    You can start only from the inside, ODD, HARD, LAN disk and external USB FDD (floppy)
