  Hello

  Can someone tell me if it is possible to boot from a USB stick (for example with Xubuntu 9.10 on it) on a new Satellite L500 (-128)?

  She has the necessary options USB - HDD it in the BIOS for this?

  The owners of any Satellite L500 there able to give accurate information? would be appreciated. I could do with the knowledge before you buy one.

  Thank you very much.

  Yes, the L500 can boot from USB Flash Drives. I believe that all 2008-2009 Toshiba laptops can boot from USB :)

• Satellite U400-10j - how to boot from a USB flash drive?

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite U400-10j.

  I have Ubuntu on my USB flash drive, now I want to boot from it.

  I can't find the option in the BIOS to boot from the Usb flash drive.

  Second, I noticed that the phone also has an internal memory card reader.
  I could load Ubuntu top then to start the memory stick as well?

  Your help will be very appreciated.
  Thank you.

  I think that it s not able to boot from a USB key on this laptop.
  The best way is to use a CD. There, you can start on this notebook and all other laptops.
  In the Internet there are many versions of CD of Ubuntu and other Linux systems.

  And as said Feliks, it s not able to boot from an SD card because it is not in the BIOS.

• Replace the DVD/CD-RW a DVDRW on Satellite 5000-204?

  I just bought a new NEC ND - 6650A mounted in my Toshiba Satellite 5000-204. It fits well, despite the wedge had to be cut in a corner, but everything fits perfectly.

  Before I bought it, I called Toshiba and they said, that it will not work, I would only put need updated BIOS. I've updated the bios (I have version 1.80), but the laptop does not recognize the drive.

  I tried to access the BIOS by pressing ESC at the start, but after that, a message appears saying: 'Press F1 to the default' and not more options are available. How can I access the BIOS settings?

  When it starts, the DVD player turns on the light, so I guess that is not a problem with the drive itself.

  Any suggestions? I'm out of ideas.

  Hi David

  And what happens if you press F1? After that, you should be able to enter the BIOS settings.

• Satellite R630: USB stick recognized not always connected to Dynadock U10

  Hello

  In the work we use laptops Toshiba Satellite R630 with U10 Dynadocks.

  We recently started role on the Bitlocker encryption using USB flash drives.
  The idea being that we will have two flash drives - one for when it is out of the office and the other who will stay plugged into the Dynadock for when at the office.

  Many of our users have problems with the drive that is plugged into the Dynadock Windows does not seem to recognize at the start.
  If we remove the drive from the Dynadock and plug it into the port on the laptop, then it works great.

  Some of our users work great so its definitely possible for Windows read the Dynadock disc when starting, but for others it isn't.

  Any help appreciated.

  Thanks for sharing this!

• Satellite M40-237: CD Boot does not not + is possible startup USB key drive

  * Model: Satellite M40-237 (PSM40E) *.

  I decided to reinstall windows, my hard drive is now formatted. So as usual, boot from the Windows CD is necessary to start the instalation but it does not start. I never had problems like this, always worked boot. It's as if there is no bootable CD in the drive (but it is bootable and it works on another PC).

  -J' have the latest version of the BIOS
  -The BIOS detects the optical drive and everything is ok, HARD is the ODD main drive is secondary
  -J' tried selecting the boot priority, with F12 and/or the BIOS setting but it works anyway

  What could be the problem here? Drive does not properly (hopefully, that and not something worse)? I had some problems with the drive I have (...) before, but it reads the disc normally and as I said start was working fine before. I cleaned the lens a bit, disconnected it and it put. Is there something more, what can I do?

  I'll try to find someone who has the player that fits so I can try with that one, but who knows when is what will be.

  Now, here's the second question, which I've linked to this. Because my laptop is practically useless now (I can't install anything), is it possible to boot from a:
  (a) optical drive USB external
  (b) USB flash drive

  BIOS on this laptop has no USB boot option, it has HARD drive / CD / floppy / network. But I red somewhere this FDD = USB legacy emulation is enabled.

  If that is correct, I should just plug in the USB key and select FDD as boot option? If I can't find a USB optical drive, I thought make it bootable USB flash drive and copy the installation of windows xp on it. So once it starts in DOS I start just the installer from the key.

  TNX

  First I must say that the initialization of memory flash USB (USB key) is not possible and you shouldn't t waste time to try this.

  With regard to your reader of CD/DVD boot problem
  Well, it s really strange, it sounds a bit like a sort of master/slave/c-salt settings problem. But generally, you should get an error IDE (#0 or #1) if one of the devices (ODD or HARD disk) would not be recognized?  :|
  This whole thing seems mysteriously
  There may be a firmware issue

  Several months ago a friend of mine was not able to boot from the CD.
  He went into the BIOS and set the BIOS default settings.
  This has contributed to

  This is a suggestion, but I'm really putting t know if it helps.

• Satellite M45 - does not start after restoration on the new HARD drive

  I installed a new PATA 250 GB HDD on my pc. The BIOS is configured to boot from CD/DVD. Toshiba Recovery disk started cold, start follow-up statement to load a new system on the HARD drive. He made a (quick) format on the HARD drive, spent 50 minutes, copy the files from the CD to the new HARD drive. Followed the instructions to remove the CD and reboot the pc. Did. I get the Toshiba homepage for 2-3 seconds, and then I get a white screen with a white block cursor in the upper corner of the LH of the screen. Looks like it does not find the block on the HARD disk?
  The procedure of collection 3 times with the same results. Checked the BIOS to check that it is configured to boot from the HARD disk after installation.

  The recovery CD is blank. Never used because I bought the PC (3.5 years). Put the new HARD drive in a USB enclosure and formatted with Windows, tried again with the same result? Put the old HDD, PC starts and works very well. Put the live CD Knoppix and boot from that, works very well. See the new HARD drive.

  Thus, any suggestions are appreciated. The recovery CD Toshiba is defective? In any case to test?

  Thank you
  -J

  Hello

  Sounds like a problem with the recovery disk or the new HARD disk if your computer starts up fine with the old HARD drive...

  In your case before you start a lengthy discussion, you should try a Microsoft Windows disk to install Windows. If he work it seems that only the recovery disk is defective.

  Otherwise, the HARD disk must be defective. Maybe a bad sector or something else

• Strange behavior USB Flash Drive Satellite A100-626

  Hello

  I did install Windows Vista Business Edition on my Satellite A100-626 (PSAA9) following the instructions provided in the Web page of drivers.

  So far, everything works as expected, except for one little (or no) question.

  When I ask Vista to 'Remove hardware safely' my USB Flash drive, a Popup appears telling me to remove it. So far, so good :D

  The only thing is that the flash player is not put out as could be expected and and yellow question mark appears in Device Manager.

  Opening of the question mark can read what follows:

  "Windows cannot use this hardware device because it has been developed to remove safely, but it has not been removed from the computer. (Code 47) To resolve this issue, disconnect the device from your computer and plug it in again. »

  Following the instructions above, the light turns off, lol...

  Someone else met this strange behavior? If so, any solution?

  I tried a few USB flashes that run well on XP and they both do the same thing.

  Thank you, Nuno!

  Hi Nuno

  It's very strange. I have the Satellite A100-504 (comes with Windows XP Home edition). Last week, I installed Vista and all the stuff followed Toshiba document instructions facilities. I use the mouse wireless, external HDD USB web cam. With the help of these external devices together I never noticed a similar behavior.

  You have the same situation with all the USB ports?

  Hello

  The recovery image can be created on a CD/DVD disc or USB memory stick. As far as I know you cannot use a common USB HDD for recovery.

• Satellite L675 - 11 H - cannot access and/or played on USB flash drive files

  Hi all

  I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite L675 - 11H and tried to transfer files from a USB Pendrive on my hard drive from Toshiba. The files were already transferred from my old laptop (HP - XP) on my USB flash drive.

  Unable to access the USB flash drive to any of the USB ports that I connect my new laptop flash drive. What could be the problem here? Thank you for your help or tips!

  Hey Rush,

  Can you post more detailes about this behavior? What happens if you connect your laptop HARD drive, you don't see that Windows installs the drivers for the new USB device or do you have an error message? If you have connected the USB check of Windows disk management if she s recognized there (Control Panel > system and security > administrative tools).

  Have you tried other USB devices such as USB mice? If they don t work too the problem might be connected to the USB ports. In this case, you must delete all the USB ports on the Device Manager and restart your laptop. Also the chipset driver update might help.

• External USB floppy drive for Satellite Pro M70

  I just bought a Satellite Pro M70 Centrino Mobile 750 to replace my Satellite 5105 - S702, which exposes the same type of problems of corruption/crash video display described elsewhere in these forums.

  I need an external floppy drive, and the site of the Toshiba shop specifies an external USB Floppy Drive Ref. PA3109E-3FDD.

  However, I have an external drive USB Floppy, Réf. PA3109U-1FDD, I bought for the satellite 5105-S702 about 4 years ago.

  5105-S702 has USB 1.1 ports and satellite Pro M70 has USB2 ports.

  Issues related to the:

  PA3109U-1FDD will work with the satellite Pro M70?

  There are likely to be problems of compatibility, driver issues or any probability/possibility of damage to the Sat ProM70?

  Would appreciate any advice.

  Thank you

  AlanCB

  Hi Alan

  I really don? t know why you ask if the floppy drive will not work. Why you don? t he try? As far as I know, it should work and you should not buy a new one.

  Just for info: a few months ago, I saw the Toshiba FDD drives with part number PX? And these drives are not bootable but on the lower side, there is a label with this information.

  Anyway, you can use your other more ancient. According to the specification tested for MS M70 is FDD Drive Kit PA3109U-1FDD (your one).

  Good luck

• Satellite P100: HARD drive sometimes fails to start or just not responding

  I have a satellite P100 on xp professional service pack 2. Sometimes it fails to start and appears as if the hard drive just stopped responding, does not require defragmentation.

  Checked all Diagnostics pass, can get it started by selecting the boot options multiple F12, HDD that appears first in the list.

  Although it seems not take a long time.
  Sometimes it seems to stall at the start to the top but picks up then after a few minutes and fortunately sometimes it starts without a problem.

  What is data corrupted in the bios? but then why it starts ok sometimes and not others? It doesn't matter if it's hot or cold.

  any ideas or help greatly received.

  Hello David

  It's a very strange situation, and for me there is no explanation simply. In my opinion the laptop or HARD drive, the functionality must be tested properly. Here in the forum we can speculate just what is the problem here but mobile startup must be tested with the other HARD drive pre-installed with original recovery image.

  It will be interesting to know if the problem disappeared with new HARD drive. So what you can do now? If possible, try to get the second HARD drive and do the only testicles or make a call to the authorized service center and explain the situation. If the laptop is guaranteed to be valid, it will be better to check in service because they can replace free HARD drive (if the HARD disk is defective).

  Sorry, but I don't see another solution. Some test with the new HARD drive can help you to understand if this happens because of the HARD drive. I don't think that the BIOS can be responsible for the issue described.
