Starting on the Satellite L series problems

Hello :)

I realize that my English is not good. I'm Polish.

1. I have a strange problem with my Satellite. First of all; A few weeks ago that he was not able to start if it was left alone all night. I could turn on it and loading on a black screen for a few seconds with a small white line in the upper corner of the screen... then the display shows "ERROR of READING", what is this strange error? Well... If I tried to restart three or four times, it worked ok after rebooting. When I left the pc intact longer, the error occurred again.

2. after that, I did the format of this partition. The problem appeared again. in fact, Windows started ok for each test, but the first time in the day, it was still very very long.

3. I did a surface scan of the disk using HD Tune and other simillar programs. All the bricks were green, no bad sectors were found.

4. today, I tried to do a format a few times (recovery console). Some of these tests failed because the laptop froze 100% right when the command line appeared (C:\)

I hope someone can help me... I hope that I won't need to repair it under warranty.

Hello lidia,

Looks like the hard drive has an intermittent fault. "Read error" usually indicates a hardware failure of the disc.

Say you that the unit is under warranty, so take it to a repair center. Repairs shouldn't cost anything.

    Roll on Notepad and check the label at the bottom of the unit. You will find the name of the laptop!

    > Speakers have stopped working on the Satellite a series
    Open the Device Manager and check if no yellow exclamation point appears. If you can see this yellow sigh perhaps the sound card driver is not installed correctly.

    In addition, please plug the headphones to your laptop and check if you can hear anything through the headphones.

  • Problems starting with the Satellite A100-662

    Hello

    I appeal to your jurisdiction after a first contact with the Toshiba support on the phone.
    My problem is the following: your computer Satellite A100-662 begins at random, sometimes it starts the first time, and other times it starts only partially sighted power and ignition in market, drive hard s ' lighter than 1 second, the fan runs but the screen remains black.
    To start, I tried several things, I had read on the Internet: removed / delivered the battery; power supply only. removed / delivered the same RAM and hard drive.
    The Toshiba support me make an initialization of food and a BIOS upgrade. I also set the fan but no improvement!
    Because I noticed something by chance: the computer does not start, I tapped on the lower right corner of the computer, and it started but not on the screen. I turned off the computer, and then I'm turned again... He has started!
    What do you think?

    Thank you.

    Hey Buddy,

    first of all: THIS IS a USER FORUM

    That means, Toshiba bed tie this messages or give any kind of support. So, please Don t think that one of Toshiba will call you the next day and give you press your problem. Be prepared to discuss with other users to solve your problem and get some knowledge from other users here autour.

    Regarding your problem:

    I think you have some hardware problem that must be fixed by a partner certified. I guess that an electronic part of the motherboard of your computer does not work correctly and from causes of this boot.

    In your case, I would follow this [LINK: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_whitepaper.jsp?service=EU&WHITEPAPER_ID=0 000000871], find the nearest authorized service partner in your country and ask them a health check of material.

    That's all, good luck...

  • The disk on the Satellite A60 boot problem

    I have a Satellite A60, I thought that the HARD drive was not on.

    When you turn on the machine, it goes beyond the POST screen and starts with the startup of Windows XP, I get the blue bars moving and the XP logo then IT just freezes.

    Replaced the HARD drive for a brand new, re-installed the OS but I have the exact problem in the same exact spot.

    Any help appreciated

    Hello

    If reinstalling the system does not work, you can try to reinstall the BIOS. If not help too, the problem must be hardware related. Your only chance is a service partner, cause then you can't do it yourself.

    Good bye

  • Black screen and a text is vague on the Satellite L series

    Hello

    I searched through all the post in this section and I am also one of the many users who bought a Toshiba laptop computer that dosent work.
    It turns on and then gives a black screen with text to disk error very small text, almost not visible at all.

    I don't know what to do, have tried all these things normal, but to no avail.
    Annoyingly, I see a lot of people with the same problem that post discussions here.
    Nobody seemed to be able to view a solution, the only suggestion is to take it to a maintenance shop.

    Someone at - there a solution or is it just bad quality products in general?

    astapasta.

    Hello buddy

    Be a little realistic. The description of your problem is so bad that I do not understand your problem.
    You didn't write what model of laptop you have, you didn't write what you did with your laptop, you didn t write what text error is displayed. With short words: none of the useful information in your ad.

    As I see you have found only two people with similar problem although no one knows exactly what is your problem.

    So if you want to discuss here on this issue be so kind and explain exactly what is happening with your laptop. Another solution is to visit the nearest service. It is easier to understand the problem if the laptop is placed in front of you.

  • Problems starting with the Satellite C870D - 11 X

    I have a Satellite C870D - 11 X 8.1 Windows running.

    The laptop was running progressively slower, but now when I start it sticks on the screen "Toshiba Leading Innovation". Finally, he moves to a blue screen saying that your computer needs repair "a required device cannot be accessed 0000185 0xc error code. I tried a reset by pressing '0' at the beginning, to the top and I see the process of disk recovery hard screen and press enter for Yes and I get the "Toshiba Leading innovation" screen with please wait. After the circular points are displayed for a few moments, then the screen becomes white.

    Unfortunately, I don't have a recovery disk to try this option. I'm looking at a hard drive failure? I hear a feint clicking of the HD as if hunting for something.

    If I buy a disc is it likely that I will be able to reinstall using this media?
    Thanks a lot for your suggestions.

    At first, I must say that you have made a mistake after that you bought your laptop you didn t create disk recovery or the so-called recovery media with the original version of Windows 8 that you got with your machine.
    I really do not understand why so many people make this mistake and do not create bootable recovery media installation backup image recovery.

    In any case, on this path virtual that is not easy to say what the problem is here and, in my opinion, the better you can do is to back up all your important data and install original recovery image. After doing this, you can test the functionality with the factory settings.

    A few days ago, I found interesting options paper of recovery limited after update to Win8.1 - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB4403L30001R01.htm
    You should try to install the HARD drive recovery original anyway. How is it that you can read on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2A03ES0000R01.htm or http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R02.htm (Win8/8.1).
    Order recovery media can be your last step.

    Clicking noise could be sign of drive HARD doesn't work well anymore. Is the warranty for your machine still valid?

  • Problem installing BIOS update on the satellite U series

    Installation of Toshiba TEMPRO informed me there's an update of the BIOS (published April 7, 2010) must be installed.

    When I received this notification I downloaded the .zip file and extract its content - BIOS_UPDATE_V170.exe-, but the execution of this file, I got a popup error saying < file "c:\". ' is not accessible >. I decided there must be a bug in the installer that will be corrected in time, so I have nothing and waited.

    Today, I received another notice that the BIOS update was available, but even once, I get the same error. My c:\ folder seems OK!
    The BIOS file is in C:\TOSHIBA\ARSENAL10_10G_BIOS_UPDATE_V170_WIN where I extracted to (having initially tried to run my downloads folder, I thought I'd try also, but it seems to make no difference).

    Can anyone offer any suggestions? Any help is greatly appreciated.
    If not, how can I get advice from Toshiba?

    See you soon
