T60 will not boot receive the beep code 1-3-4-3 any suggestions on what this might be?

Hi guys,.

My T60, does not start all of a sudden. I can't access the BIOS. I received the following beep sequence: 1-3-4-3.

I looked around and got as a message for phoenix BIOS beep code 'Test 512 K base memory '. Anyone has an explanation, and I should do or change?

Thanks a lot for your support!

Antoine

I don't have one of them, but if it's a mistake of memory, the best way to test is to substitute known good memory. If you have two SODIMM modules installed, remove them and install one at the time and the test.

Sometimes remove and reset of memory are sufficient to solve the problem.

If this does not help, a good 'generic' method that I use on all laptops with a no boot situation is to remove all the drives and cards, then see if it will boot to the BIOS, or post at all. I've seen poor readers force a system not to post, so remove everything that is not required will be an easy way to identify the cause. Usually, if it will not always display, you'll have a system board failure.

    Hello

    Well, unfortunately for me it looks like a hardware failure.
    Maybe the motherboard is broken.
    These problems may occur if you use a bad BIOS or the incorrect BIOS update procedure.

    Please check this document FAQ How to upgrade the BIOS:
    IOS http://eu.Computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/FAQ.jsp?z=234&service=eu&from=faq_selection&CFID=B & FID = TRO0000000b07

    Unfortunately if there is something wrong with the hardware you should ask Toshiba service for assistance.

    Model reader problem: WDBHML0040HAL-RK

    -J' ordered this drive of Studio 4 to WD outside of eBay for $109, used. The drive has been used previously on OS X, and I had planned to use it between two Windows 7, 10 and 10 OS X via dual-boot.
    -Boots PC regularly without the connected reader, but it hangs at the splash screen, if the player is connected to one of my 10 USB ports.
    -I can't not to enter the BIOS with the drive connected, and if I get into the BIOS without connection, BIOS freezes as soon as I make it connect.
    -I went into the BIOS, (with the device / disconnected /), and external hard drives moved to the low boot priority. This had no effect.
    -The PC recognises the drive if it is connected / after start. I can copy files to and from the disk without flaw.
    -When it is received, the disk has been formatted with a face-to-face 200 MB EFI system partition, (I have no background knowledge about it), with the rest ~3.5TB unscathed HFS + space.
    -Immediately, I formatted the partition HFS + and it separated in exFAT and NTFS.
    -Deletion of the EFI partition to command line has no effect.

    Someone online says that this is due to the ASUS P8Z68 trying to boot from the drive and to disable "Legacy USB Support" from the BIOS, but my knowledge of the ways all USB devices are disabled, including keyboards. I am doing a FULL disk formatting and will update the post I have try these solutions.

    I'm really in a bind here, guys. In all, any help is appreciated.

    Solved myself. I went back to the basics:

    The drive is 4 TB and I'm trying to use it as exFAT, for compatibility purposes. exFAT supports up to 2 TB per partition. The solutions are either break the 4 TB drive halfway, or to use the NTFS system.

    For the record, I chose exFAT.

    Marking this question.

    Hello

    There are various reasons why this error message:
    In most cases this error because the laptop is trying to boot from a HARD drive or flash drive that is not configured correctly. Maybe the drive is not bootable or not compatible.

    It would also be possible that some sectors on the HARD disk, HARD drive failures are corrupt or BIOS is damaged. NTLDR error messages may also appear if the master boot record is damaged.

    In your case I recommend that you format the first HARD drive before booting from the hard drive CD7DVD external using Win XP CD.

    By the way: you must add SATA driver to CD Win XP using nLite.
    The SATA driver is placed on the European driver Toshiba page in the Intel Storage Manager

    The SATA driver is needed to recognize the HDD by Win XP!

  • Z575 will not boot from the hard drive or restore DVD

    Need help on a laptop Z575 age of 2 years that immediately after an automatic update of windows, will not start either from the hard disk or restore DVDs (blue screen). Does not start in safe mode, not booting from a rescue of third party DVD. Attempt to start, it will show you the ability to start the Startup Repair tool. Repair shows that it is unable to fix with the detail following problem error messages:
    Signature of the problem 1: 6.1.7600.16385

    Normally think that the hard drive has failed or that windows update caused a software problem, but the inability to boot from any restore disk that makes me think that there is another serious problem with the hardware of the laptop.

    Any help would be appreciated. THX

    Additional note: when you try to boot from a restore disc, blue screen, error message:
    Stop: 0x0000007B (0xF78DA640, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
    It is a hardware failure that cannot be restarted soft.

    I also removed the hard drive and RAM, reinstalled and rebooted, no change.

    Additional note: I was able to access the hard drive with a recovery of old program, focused on the (SpaceFM) ram charged through the DVD player. Hard drive data appears intact. Still does not start from the hard disk or a DVD of windows system.

    Thank you. Rather than buying a 4 GB or more large key USB comes from put this into hard drive replacement. Installed correctly, boots very well now. No other error of the optical drive... and no explanation I can see, but that's it.

    Unless something else pops up we'll just call cela a HARD drive failed after 2 years of common use. Thanks again.

  • Windows 7 for Lenovo G50-70 - the computer will not boot from the CD

    Hello world

    I hope that someone here will be able to help

    I bought a new laptop with Windows 8.1. I want to install Windows 7 on that I know well because I can't use the new windows. I changed the settings in the BIOS to get the machine to boot from the CD, but it won't be fair. I also tried to restore the system to boot from the CD, but it installs just the Windows pre-installed, new instead. Also, I can't access the CD from the drive while all my other computers are capable of (what is strange)

    Can someone help, please?

    See you soon

    PS. : I can turn on the computer through the small "boot botton" on the side and select the DVD drive to boot from. But this is not followed by the message "Press any key to boot from CD" and the computer starts just W8 yet;

    I contacted customer service and followed your advice. They refused to help him on the ground that there nothing wrong with the machine in their opinion, and since I wanted to change operating system. All preinstalled spyprogrammes Lenovo has been erased with this downgrade. So far, I've owned a laptop computer brand new and expensive for a year I used only to waste my time, trying to make it work, that was not why I bought it in the first place. What a RIP-OFF!

  • HP Pavilion p7-1414 will not boot from the CD

    Hello

    I recently bought your desktop HP Pavilion p7 1414, I am trying to boot from a CD to reinstall Windows 8 - I put the CD to start first in the BIOS, but when I restart the computer and I have the CD, "press any key to boot from the CD" is not displayed.  It starts just directly to the computer HARD disk in Windows to connect.

  • EA6500 will not send/receive the cell text and multimedia

    I just took an EA6500 on clearance.  It works very well for all applications except text messaging.  I can send and receive texts and multimedia on all other WiFi connections I use, but it does not work on my EA6500.  Is this standard, or is there a place I can change the settings?

    We are with US Cellular by using an old Samsung (not sure of the model), two S7s and an iPhone 6 (more or sPlus... not sure), more on WiFi an old M bike, only.

    Thanks for any help on this.

    Natalie

    Cell phones use the cell signal from the phone to the normative texts and the data connection of the phone for multimedia content.  None of this happens on WiFi.  It does not work on all other WiFi connections, you are confused.  Text works when you have cellular signal and the works of content media when you have a valid data connection.  Maybe it would help if there is an application that transmits over the internet, then on mobile networks, but not using the original text/sms on the phone app.

    Found a box that prevents the bios to booting from anything other than the hard drive in the BIOS, under Security.  Stupid because it still allows you to change the order of boot without any error message.

    Once I changed I could boot from the cd and fix corrupted files.

    If it can boot from a normal cd is the stuffed ROM or am I missing something?

    You can use a recovery (if available) disk or Windows disk copy. In the Bios, you must set the Cd/DVD-ROM as 1st boot device and press F10 save and exit. Turn it back on. Thus, your computer you should start the installation of the Cd drive.
