Satellite U920T - Ubuntu Boot Failure

Hello

I installed Ubuntu on my U920t. Everything works well except the boot.

* Boot from USB for installation succeeded
* Boot from USB with rEFInd (http://www.rodsbooks.com/refind/) works like a charm
* Directly boot from SSD does not, demand for the system disk.

I tried several settings in the BIOS/EFI, but always without success. Any idea what goes wrong?

Kind regards

Frank

You have disabled the secure boot and you used the CSM boot mode?

This is the biggest change to use and launch systems other than Win 8 and 8.1 Win

By the way: the Windows requires the installation of the SATA (driver Intel RST) driver to recognize the HARD drive correctly.
I think that such driver SATA missing in the Linux distribution can also affect the initialization of the system.

  • Satellite A135-S4417 - boot failure

    Hello

    Recently, what action it has been generating a beep and if it stays on he will repeat this beep every 15 to 20 seconds.
    However, it is now a boot failure beyond the Vista login screen and everything stops instantly.

    Several attempts to start with or without battery or only connected to a power outlet and it is beyond the 'press or ... '. "screen and then stops. No beep.

    If it remains beyond this screen, I get the beep as described above.
    If I remove the RAM it does not show anything on the screen or beep somehow.

    In all cases, that the upward light cooling fan, stay on for a few seconds, then stop, then the laptop dies or keep trying to load Windows and then shuts down immediately. If it becomes quite far as it beeps again in the same range as described above.

    The wind side allows me to see the heat sink and it seems clear of debris and I had no cases of overheating.
    Without no beeps error or other symptoms I don't see what is really bad or anything to verify.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

  • Satellite Pro 2100 Boot Failure

    Hello

    I have a MS PRO 2100 who * was * running Win XP Pro SP1 with Celeron 2 GHz, 512 MB of Ram and 30 GB HARD drive. Bought in early 2003, so out of warranty. I tried to install SP2 on a CD of MS, but got bored after a while and leave the machine unattended. I returned about half an hour later to find the machine apparently tried to start in SP2. 10 minutes later the start screen was still, but the machine would not start. (The HARD drive light was active overall, as it has been in the following scenarios).

    To cut a long story short, I tried Safe Mode and fix Installation without joy, before giving up in the belief that SP2 has been the problem. Data has been backed up and I have a full copy of XP Pro SP2, spare, so I thought I would do a clean install. Booted from the XPSP2 CD and tried to format HARD drive. Hung at 0% formatted for 20 minutes before I stopped.

    Subsequently tried recovery CD product, which seemed installs correctly, including the replacement of the partition, that I had to destroy when I tried to format the HARD drive. Little difference in the startup problem - now it slowly boots as much as the start screen for XP SP1 and does not move for several minutes, until a BSOD pops up with the technical element of the message (all on one line) STOP: 0x0000007E (0xC0000006, 0x80658CAA, 0xF8954704, 0xF8954404)

    'Start-up' safe mode now consists of a scrolling list intermittently from drivers who stop on agp440.sys for awhile before the BSOD appears, as indicated above.

    My apologies for the length of the post. I think that sounds pretty terminal but if anyone can shed any light on it I would appreciate it greatly.

    Merry Christmas!

    Hello

    Sounds strange! I would try to start the computer with a startup disk (which can be downloaded at www.bootdisk.info) and run fdisk and chkdsk.exe to scan the HARD drive!

    Also, you should check the settings of the BIOS and new st failing!

    Try and keep me posted!

  • Satellite L50-B-281 - Boot Failure with Win 7 installation disc

    HY everybody,

    I have a problem I hope you could help me with.

    I bought a satellite L50-B-281 boneless, sibce I have a W7 license available.

    The L50 will not identify any bootable media, I present to you. I always get the message:

    boot failure: an appropriate digital signature not found.
    one of the files on the boot selrcted device was rejected by the secure startup feature

    I tried to download a new copy of W7 of MS, he engraved on a DVD and tried to start, but it doesn't work anymore.

    On Google I found I shoul change the start mode, but the UFEI is gray in the BIOS and cannot be changed.

    You have any ideas how I can install W7 on the laptop?
    Thank you

    Sometimes he DEBRABANT just to talk.
    I just found the solution.

  • Linux on satellite U920T

    Hello

    I am considering the purchase of a new laptop (Toshiba Satellite U920t). Does anyone know, if it is consistent with recent distributions of linux (Ubuntu-based)? Is it possible to find the detailed material (model wifi, BT model,...), which can help to decide?

    Thanks for all info

    Hello

    I am writing this reply on a U920T-109 under Ubuntu 64 bit 14.04.
    I had an EFI problem that looks like other models - Ubuntu bootable EFI-binary do not find after successful installation.
    It's all in fact easily solved by copying the native binary file & folder more generically called those.
    Question is can be avoided by setting the boot to the CSM mode if you want to stay on the easy way :) But do it BEFORE installation to avoid confusion between the error message during startup.

    One of the above is complete, the device starts and works fine in Ubuntu 14.04.

    Webcam WLAN, Bluetooth, touch screen, mouse works fine.
    Keyboard shortcuts work in part.
    Brightness not possible to order in a standard installation, but should be possible to operate by use of a boot argument (acpi_backlight = vendor).

    Overall, I see no reason why you make a U920T a great Linux-PC.

    See the output of lsusb and lspci below. Please keep in mind that no matter what U920T you watch may slightly differ in specifications and features!

  • Disk Boot Failure on Pavilion a1720n

    My computer froze and crashed, then went to a black screen saying Disk Boot failure Insert System Disk. When I go to start my computer it goes either directly on the screen or it starts and runs fine for about 10 minutes and goes back to a black screen, repeat the disk boot failure.

    It is usually a very strong indication that your hard drive is dying. I hope you did the recovery disk set that will be required to reinstall your Windows and your software to a new hard drive.

    One thing you might try is first to enter the BIOS to turn on by pressing the F10 key. Once in the BIOS, press F5 to reset the default settings then F10 to save and exit.

  • Satellite U920T - touchscreen disabled when viewing is slipped on

    Hi Forum,

    I'm new here and I have a problem that I can't solve by myself, to ask for help.
    I use a Toschiba Satellite U920T-100 for more than a year.

    For about 1 week, once I have drag to the top of the screen to access the keyboard, the touch screen no longer works. When folded (hidden keyboard) touch screen works.
    I downloaded most of the drivers, re-istalled, even made a "go back" to cancel the update of Windows... etc.

    Try to change the settings for the touch screen under control panel, I get the message 'settings touch - and pen are not available. Contact the manufacturer of the pc (error = 0).

    Does anyone have an idea what to do?

    Donkey more, but can not be connected to the problem above: in the Device Manager, entry "INTEL WiUSB" shows a yellow exclamation point.

    Would be great if someone could help me. Thank you!

    See you soon

    This theme on the Satellite U920T touch screen problem has already been discussed in this forum.

    If the reset did not help you, there must be some kind of hardware problem (some types of losing the connection)

    Probably the cable isn't connected properly all backstage display.

    I think it s a job for an engineer of the laptop.

    Since you mentioned different problems with your laptop, I think that in this case its recommended to get the laptop back to factory settings just to check if all these problems are related to the problem of system.

    Regarding the webcam: Windows 8/8.1 already contains the webcam drivers and therefore additional webcam driver installation isn t possible. Extra webcam driver is not simply.

    From my point of few smells of any description as a bit of a problem of material, the upper part of the slide where the touch screen is part of.
    The key win as well that the two cams are located and there are probably some lose the connection between the two parties (touchscreen and keyboard)

    Anyway, as I said more top, its recommended to recover the laptop to factory settings just to make sure that the system isn t the troublemaker.
    In case of hardware problems, you must get in touch service available in your country.

  • Satellite U920T: Change internal SSD 128 GB to 500 GB of SSD drive

    The internal drive SSD 128 GB of my Toshiba Satellite U920T-101 is to small.
    How can I change the internal SSD 128 GB a new 500 GB SSD drive.
    Is there a manual to change SSD?

    Thank you very much.

    Because of the design specific SSD should be upgraded to authorized service. To have full access to build SSD almost the entire machine must be dismantled, so I recommend you to contact the nearest Toshiba authorized service provider and seek advice and they can help you with this.

  • A few problems with the Satellite U920T-100

    Hi guys,.

    my girlfriend ordered a Toshiba Satellite U920T-100 about three months ago and she had problems with it since. We're not quite sure what causes because they seem to happen randomly.

    The questions are:
    -It starts, but it freezes at the Win8 connection with a blue screen (a rather hot blue, no blue screen of death)
    -It starts not at all, only after a few attempts
    -It will not stop
    -It freezes all by organizing files (for example copy of files from A to B, but not yet large amounts of files)

    New: these questions seem to be completely appearing randomly, I wasn't able to reproduce them in any way.

    Also: WLAN connectivity is really bad.
    The laptop is not able to find networks, while my laptop has no problem with it.
    And when he finds them and connect, the connection be lost - once again: no idea why.

    That surprises me the most, because in tests and comments that I've read that connectivity has been praised everywhere.

    I have reset factory?
    Run through some specific tests?
    Or is is hopeless, because there are so many problems with it?

    I'd appreciate your help!

    Hello

    > I should factory reset it?

    I think you should do that because the issue described can be related to system problems, but also hardware problem (HARD drive for example). The resumption of the factory allows you to check if its software or hardware related problem.

    Usually, all the problems of software (System) could be solved by the recovery process. Hardware problems would continue.

    From my point of view, the recovery of the system is the first step, you should try to solve the problem.
    In case this is not enough, a hardware problem (RAM or HARD disk) is possible, and given that the laptop is still under warranty, I recommend you contact the service to check the unit.

    Hope my advice might help you a bit

  • Satellite U920T-100: pilot NFC win 8.1 does not load

    Hello

    I know the 920T-100 have NFC opportunities... but I can't install the drivers from the support page.

    During the attempt, authorize the change appears, Yes, and then nothing happens.
    I unpacked the package with 7zip and started the installation program, it checks the system and its all is ok and it ends with a warning there was a script error.

    I tried find the software Intel NFC SDK, but impossible to find.

    Any help for me?

    > as I know the 920T-100 NFC opportunities...
    I found the details on the Satellite U920T-100 and specifications page (it s in German but can be translated) and the NFC is not listed there.

    http://www.Toshiba.de/laptops/satellite/u920t/satellite-u920t-100/

    NFC (near field communication) is provided with certain models of U920T (for example U920T-117), but it looks like its not available for Satellite U920T-100.
