Satellite Pro L10 won't boot to the top

I am a L10 for a friend, at the moment when the cd and turn it on, the snoring of fan upward, the disk hard led flashes several times climb the towers, but nothing beyond what is happening. The display shows life, no beeps comes off it is just here doing nothing with the power light on and whirring of the fan.

So far I tried to connect a monitor to the vga no signal of the port. Put a linux boot cd in the drive, it runs and sounds like its access but I don't think that his startup, the screen is certainly not, and the hard drive is silent. Finally I tried to take the battery out and running of the network. It doesn't change anything.

So for the moment I can not any diagnosis and I have no idea what could be wrong with him, anyone have any ideas?

Hello

As you have described it of very difficult to say what's wrong.
It seems like it might really be something wrong with the hardware because you can not see the home screen Toshiba at the beginning of the initialization.

I put t don't know if this helps but try to remove the battery to form several times unplug and wait 30 min power (can t tell the time exactly) try to reinsert the battery and connect to the mains. Try to start again.

If it doesn't help I guess you will need additional assistance of a technician.

    It is possible that the HARD disk you are using has bad sectors. You can check this with different tools. I can recommend HDD regenerator. You can also try PowerMax 4.23.

    Hi all

    I have a problem with my satellite of sad, after 3-4 days I installed a new operating system (tried with XP SP2 and Kubuntu) system does not boot to the top, every time it freezes with no reason, the only way is to perferom a new installation of the OS. What is a hardware problem, perhaps related to the RAM or HARD drive?
    x 10, Daniele.

    Hello

    It's not easy to tell if the problem is software or hardware related.
    You must install the OS from the Toshiba Recovery CD and again test the functionality

    If the laptop won't boot again freezes immediately after that installation of recovery CD, and then it could be a hardware problem.
    You can try using MemTest 3.5 tool.
    It checks the memory of a malfunction.

    The display lights. If she does not even there to boot in the bios.

    Any idea what the problem might be? Im hoping that the CPU or the motherboard is not fried.

    see you soon

    Unless you bought the extended warranty, I don't think you have a lot of luck. My suggestion is to return to the place of purchase, if you still have warranty.

    However, try to remove the battery for 1 minute and then replace the battery again. Try it turn on.

    Also try with the power cable plugged in power and remove the battery.

    If all else fails, then you have a very expensive paper weight.

    Good luck.

  • My Sat Pro M40X won't boot to the top

    I have a new laptop of MX40, and it starts up at all when I turn on the power.

    Most of the time it won't do anything, not even open the test page, and the screen remains black.

    However, sometimes it will start by a long beep, then two short. You can here to windows that open towards the top, but the screen remains black.

    Anyone any idea how I can fix this.

    Thank you

    Dave

    Hi Dave,.

    This is a hardware failure (as indicated by beeps when you turn on) and indicates that a component has failed to POST.

    As the device is new I would stay there a repairer authorized for repair under warranty or outlet where it was purchased.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite 1410-401 won't boot to the top

    Hi all

    A friend of mine asked me that if I can settle on his laptop, it does not start, when I click on the button that lights up the screen Toshiba but remember to come and on every 2 seconds!

    I can then get to a screen if I press the esc key who is black and said "system to check.
    Then press F1, it stays that way until I press the F1 key, if I press the F1 key I get the system set up the page to the top, but when he says: you want to get out and I press Yes it just goes back to the flashing start screen!

    Any ideas what the problem might be, it is a fairly old laptop a Toshiba S1410-401.
    I tried to boot mode safe but still no joy!

    He has XP Home Edition installed with no disc re install, I have XP Media Center edition with a boot disk installed on my home PC, the laptop has a license code my hot spare could be installed on the laptop and the use of license he key to activate it or isn't it possible?

    Maybe this isn't a software issue at all, any help would be appreciated!

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    I can confirm the information published by naccioman.
    The serial key you will find at the bottom of the device will not work with discs from Microsoft. The serial key belongs to the Windows operating system that is pre-installed on this laptop and it s an OEM license.
    So you only chance is to reinstall the OS from the original disc of Microsoft.

    First you should check if the laptop boot from a Windows CD.
    If it will not start and that installation would not start so a hardware problem couldn't be the reason why the laptop doesn't work properly.
    In this case I recommend that you test the RAM and HARD drive.

    Are most of the cases the defective or not compatible RAM causes issues.

    Check the voltage of the AC adapter, if his less than 19volts gift, it could be defective.

    Otherwise, it looks like he needs a new mainboard. You might be able to find one on eBay.

  • Satellite M70-337 won't boot to the top

    Hello

    This unit worked ok.
    He came to say that the necessary charge battery, so the diet was attatched, but nothing happened.
    Now the battery is discharged and the unit comes on even with the power supply connected.

    I checked the output of the power supply and that seems to be ok.

    It is likely that it is just the DC cylindrical connector on the laptop, or is it a more serious problem?

    Kind regards
    Nigel.

    Hello

    Perhaps my advice might help you;
    Try this:

    -Remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter
    -wait on ~ 20-30 min
    -assemble the two parts (battery & AC)
    -try to boot the machine

    If this will not help then it s a serious issue and the local ASP is your last resort.

    Good luck

  • Satellite C50 won't boot to the top

    Hello

    My son satellite C50 won't boot to the top. It is connected to the power grid and will arrive at the password screen but as soon as you type goes into shutdown. Any suggestions please?

    Thanks in advance.

    You write about Windows or BIOS password?

    In any case, on this virtual path, it is not easy to give an exact explanation what can be wrong there.
    Your son of many important data stored on this machine? If this isn't the case, you should try to reinstall the OS and test it with the factory settings.

    What you can try is to enter the BIOS settings and leave the machine 5 minutes to see if cell phone will go OFF. If this isn't the case, set the BIOS to the default settings and try again.

    Is the cooling fan may be strong at the start of the machine?

  • Satellite Pro A10 won't boot up - where to get the disks

    I have a Satellite Pro A10 that currently does not start up Windows (XP) as it says

    The following file is corrupted or damaged:
    C:\windows\system32\config\system

    Tools & Utilities CD that came with my laptop has unfortunately been scratched and will not start.
    I have two system recovery disks, which are very good.

    My questions:

    1. is it possible to buy a replacement Tools & Utilities CD-Rom?
    2. If Yes, where to go?
    3. is there a way to restore my laptop without having to reinstall everything completely and lose all my files?

    Thank you

    Post edited by: Stuart_2007

    With regard to the point;

    (a) generally, it should be possible to order the CD of tools & utilities but I ask why?
    (b) you can buy the CD of the ASP in your country
    (c) the older recovery CD is supported by an expert mode. You can use this mode to choose the partition where the OS is to be installed. In this case only, this partition will be formatted.

    But look, man. You do not need to order the CD tools & utilities because on this CD, you will only find the Toshiba drivers can be downloaded from the Toshiba page too.

  • Satellite A30 won't boot to the top

    My computer does not start at the top. Yesterday, I had the blue screen but then restarted and everything was OK. Woke up this morning to the computer does not start. I have a Toshiba Satellite A30. I got the Toshiba screen, then the black screen to choose 'Start normally', 'last good settings', 'safe mode', "safe mode with network" etc.

    I chose normal startup, then I get the Windows XP screen with the blue bar. When that has been loaded, he went back to the initial screen for Toshiba and then continues to repeat. I also tried safe mode, but that charge or the other.

    What should I do? I don't want to erase the hard drive because there a lot of important data (family photos, work) etc. Please help me

    Thank you!

    You can remove the HARD 2.5 laptop drive and you can connect it via USB to another PC. Then you may be able to save any important files.
    After this procedure the plug back in the HARD drive and boot from the recovery CD to reinstall the OS.
