Tecra A8 - does not start, led is flashing with hex message

Hello

My computer will not start and there is a flashing orange led light...

There are * short 4 *, then * 4 long * light

==> in hexadecimal: * 0F *.

But I have found no documentation on the * led error codes *...

Help me please!

Hello

> ==> in hexadecimal: 0F
You are right.

> there are 4 short and then 4 fire long
That would mean: 0000 1111
Due to the least significant bit, must read this by behind: 1111 0000-> F0H

Unfortunately, there is no document published in the Toshiba page on error code meaning
I guess only the Toshiba ASP (certified partner) might provide these details and information.

I would recommend so get in touch with the local ASP to get some information about the error.
But to be honest, these errors are mainly related to a question on the motherboard and in this case mobo must be replaced.

  • Tecra 9100 does not start, power light flashes

    My tecra 9100 is boot is no longer, when I press the button works / laptop acts although it will start up (only for a second sheet) but instead completely stops and the light starts flashing in a sequence of (short 2, 1 x long, 2 short, 2 long, 1 short). I really need help, and I was wondering if anyone has had the problem before and knows how to solve this problem.

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Thibault

    I'm afraid that there is a problem with the electronic board. When the power led is flashing, it sends the hex code. This code should help technicians to see what the problem is with the laptop.

    Only thing you can do is remove the battery and try to boot up your laptop. I don't think this will help, but you can try. If the same thing occur, you must contact services partners in your country and ask for help. Sorry! :(

  • Tecra M2 does not start successfully - zeroes appear all over the screen

    Help!

    My Tecra M2 does not start. After the toshiba logo, a series of zeros (0) appear all over the screen.

    -suspect it is caused by a virus, I formatted the HD (in another PC), but still the zeros appear
    -I might want to start in the DVD player, it seems to read the disc, but nothing happens, just a cursor flashing at the top left of the screen
    -J' I reset / replaced the RAM, but still no effect.
    -the power button works, lights and shuts the laptop but does not start.
    -CPU fan works
    -LED indicators of work are power, battery, dvd, wireless. Does not have HD LED light on.

    Any suggestions on how to solve this problem is greatly appreciated.
    See you soon!

    Hello

    I think we can exclude HARD disk failure because you are able to format it in another computer.
    As you suggest the RAM modules has been replaced but the problem persists
    So in my opinion, a motherboard problem would be possible

    But as you know, it of really difficult to say what might be exactly wrong
    I think that the technician should check the laptop then it would be possible to say what part is malfunctioning

    In any case, I think a motherboard might be affected

  • After the motherboard replacement Tecra S2 does not start

    Hello

    I replaced the motherboard in my Tecra S2 and now it does not start, the power light is on but nothing on the screen. I can hear the h/d running DVD lights.
    I tried to remove the RAM.

  • Tecra M2 does not start - the power light AC blinking orange

    Someone at - it a list of codes for the Tecra M2 flash.
    My friend has a laptop that does not start at the top. the AC power LED flashes orange. a long, short, long, short, long, short, long, short.

    I checked the battery and reinstall the RAM.
    Any IDE?

    Hello

    I agree with go.
    The ASP would be able to tell what means error.

    Usually means short and 1 long: 0
    So the error must be: 1010 1010
    Due to the last significant bit (LSB), to be read by behind:
    So it now means: * 0101 0101 binary *-> it must be converted to hexadecimal-> * 55 Hex *.

    Then, you will get a hex code.
    But unfortunately, I m not very well which could mean this code

    So ask ASP for help!

  • Tecra 8000 does not start after the BIOS update

    From one day to the other does not start my Tecra 8000 (400 MHz/256 MB BIOS 9.30 for years). After start-up, the disc starts to turn, but the screen including the backlight remains completely black, without red logo TOSHIBA BIOS is not accessible.

    I got a new mainboard on stock, so I replaced it, and it worked. Unfortunately now my WLAN card now did not work properly. I tried several settings of the BIOS with no results, so I decided to do an update of the BIOS from 7.50 to 9: 30. After the upgrade, I get the message "ROM WRITE successful, utility completed. LEADER BIOS: Tecra8000 v 9,30 ". Because what either kept silent, I pressed the power button to restart and heard a long and many short beeps (endless). I could interrupt what pressing the powerbutton for 5s.

    After turning on again I have the same problem as described in the first line :-( I can't get into the BIOS, but I can again update (with pressed F12). Once again these beeps.

    What to do with these beeps after average BIOS update? I replaced the MoBo connector LED with pension. Processor, memory, keyboard and HD has remained the same. So, before I start disassembling the machine, please notify, your help is very appreciated.

    Hello Joachim

    I'm not a technician and don t know what the beeps but I am afraid that the BIOS chip is damaged. Because of this, the unit is completely dead. Sorry, but I really don t believe you can do anything. Maybe the new motherboard again :(

  • Tecra A6 does not start with battery only

    Hi all
    I'm having a strange problem with a Tecra A6 I picked up recently at the refurb because it does not start with a battery only: it starts only when / sector is also connected, but eventually DΘmarrer on battery alone (and works fine) with the power cord removed shortly after pressing the power button. It's just on battery alone, I get no answer by pressing the power on button (so the power outlet must be set at this first stage or I don't get anything).

    Now I'm wondering if maybe it's the battery voltage? It seems that there are 2 options for this model, a 10.8 v and the other at 11.1V. With loaded Windows and Hardware Monitor reports running the battery is at 0% wear level and cool until completely (so I don't think that the battery is faulty), but it indicates that the battery is running at * 11, 1V, * but the battery installed is actually the * model 10.8v*. Could that prevent any power on only to batteries?

    More information on the model I have:
    Tecra A6-PTA60E-0EJ013EN
    CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo T7200 2.0 Ghz
    2 GB of Ram.

    Thanks in advance for any help on this one. Essential, I would like to know is if I have a 11.1V battery to run this model correctly (and get it) on battery alone. If the voltage makes no difference so I guess it must be a weird motherboard problem and I need bother not buy a new battery.

    > Will have to buy another battery and see if the same thing happens (I'll know then if it is the motherboard), but in the meantime if anyone can let me know if the voltage is serious I would appreciate it.

    To my knowledge, the batteries for Tecra A6 should take in charge 10.8V
    There's piles more strong for example 5200mAh but the voltage must be the same 10.8

  • Tecra M2 does not start

    I'm new havoing problems with my Tecra M2. can someone point me in the right direction with regard to breakdowns, I had a glance on the forum and the threads associated with the Tecra range but cannot find all threads that match my problem.

    In a short time, less than three days, I had a problem that began with the laptp re start when it has been moved to now does not start at all. All the lights are what I expect of them with the exception of the HARD drive indicator, that does not illuminate at the start of the boot sequence. Does that mean that my HARD drive or the connection at the disk has failed, measures of observation of fault that I can follow to confirm or deny my fears would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    If the HARD drive is faulty, then you should not be able to start the operating system, but you should be able to see the BIOS splash screen.
    You see that? Are you abele to access the BIOS?
    Please check this!

    To access the BIOS ESC and F1 press immediately after the laptop has been powered! If this is not possible then there might be something wrong with the motherboard or any other piece of hardware like RAM.

    If you are able to access the BIOS, then you should check if the HARD drive is recognized in the BIOS.
    You can also use the tool called Drive Fitness Test to verify the HARD drive!

  • Why Tecra A3 does not start from CD/DVD?

    My laptop Tecra A3 does not react to the BIOS setting asking at the start of the CD/DVD.

    CD/DVD is the first place in the list of bootable devices (defined through F12 in boot sequence) the operating system starts with the HD. I have a chance to start with a bootable CD!

    The configuration is the following:

    Tip: TOSHIBA EAT10/EAT20
    BIOS: TOSHIBA V2.80 10/25/2006

    Any advice is welcome!

    Thanks in advance

    Antonio Giarrusso

    Have you tested with different CD bootable?
    Also try to start computer laptop using F12 and choose ODD as the first boot device.

    You can use ODD in Windows OS preinstalled?

  • Re: Tecra S5 does not start

    After the upgrade to win7 and sometimes having a blue screen when you start the following happened.

    After blue screen once more, laptop is not starting at all.

    The only thing that happens is that I see the upstartscreen (in touch with tomorrow TOSHIBA) and the icons at the bottom of the screen indicating the readers. Nothing happens any more, it does not start doe.

    I can change by tapping F12 in a new boot through the CD rom boot procedure, but there is also no effect.

    Also, it is not possible to enter the bios (esc + F1).

    The keyboard works because, after a while each touch result is a short "beep".

    I removed the battery for a while and tried again with no results.

    If I can put my laptop by the ore basket is there a possibility to bring it to life

    Thanks in advance, Jos

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to offer an accurate diagnosis, but somehow, I feel THAT BIOS is doomed.
    Unplug the AC adapter / CC, remove the battery and press the power for 20 seconds. After doing this only connect the power supply and restart your laptop.

    I don't have this model of laptop and I'm not sure to get into the BIOS but try also with F2.

  • Tecra M4 - does not start, no image on the monitor

    My Tecra M4 will not start.
    When I turn it on, all I hear is a quick check of the DVD player, a hum of hard drive and fan.

    I tried an external monitor and still see nothing.
    I also changed the ram, tried to start with disconnected HARD drive disconnected RTC battery for a while.

    I don't see anything on the screen at any time.

    Any suggestions?

    Hi TheXenon,

    In your case, I'll try this:
    Remove the battery and the AC adapter at least an hour. Then reconnect the two and try to restart your laptop.

    But at the moment for me that sounds like a hardware malfunction and you need help from a service allowed in your country. :(

  • "this file does not have a program associated with it" message when you insert the sd card

    When I insert an SD card into my computer, I get a message that says f:\ that this file does not have a program associated with it... I know I can set default programs with the types of files in the Control Panel, but how do you recognize what to do when I insert an SD card in the computer?

    Windows 7
    The problem is caused by the automatic game changing options, this can sometimes happen when you install a new program, but they can easily be changed back. Click 'start' at the bottom left, go into "default programs" on the right side of the list (under computer / doc/images etc.) select "Change AutoPlay settings.
    You will find prob some of the sections had the new auto run program, just edit those you want (or all) "ask me every time", you will find that when you insert an sd card, you get the options normal download, copy, etc. as usual.

  • Tecra M9 - does not start after memory upgrade from 1 GB to 3 GB

    I am trying to upgrade my M9 memory with little success. I bought a 2 GB module which is the same existing brand and spec to the 1 GB module, but the PC will not start no matter what options I try. So far I have tried:

    * Addition of 2 GB for the accommodation of extension from below (3 GB total)
    * Withdrawal of module 1 GB under the keyboard and its replacement by the 2 GB module

    None of these options work. The PC gives no beeps or indications that there is a problem, the led lights on the way to the top, the drive led flashes and then it goes into a wait state. Nothing happens.

    For the record, I bought initially upgraded memory that wasn't an exact match and I am now on my 3rd module suspecting a memory compatibility to be the issue. This current 2 GB module seems to fully match the 1 GB as well as being twice the size. It is:

    HYNIX 2GB 2Rx8 PC2 - 5300 s-555-12

    I am running Windows XP SP3

    The TECRA is a PTM91A Intel Duo T700 CPU 1.80 GHz

    Any help would be appreciated

    Hello

    To me it sounds like the new memory module is not functional or not compatible with the laptop. Otherwise the cell would start without any problem.

    If you bought the memory module in a store, you have to take it back and ask for a replacement.

    I n t have experience with Hynix memory modules. For the upgrade of my laptop, I used Kingston memory and it worked without any problem

  • Tecra 8100 does not start.

    Hello. I have this Tecra 8100 I think sell for parts, because I am crazy about her. But before that, I ask you here as a last.

    It seems the section "power" of the laptop works very well: if I plug the power, the 'dc in' and 'battery' LED will light, and the "battery" led even go from orange to green when the battery is charged.

    If I press the button "power on", "power" lights up. The hard disk starts to spin. The fan does nothing, and no "beep" is heard at all. In addition, the screen does not display anything. External VGA output or output TV shows nothing, too. I repeat, that no. a BEEP is heard, until...

    I close the lid. A long beep is heard when I close the lid, but no trace of the image on the screen.

    I have changed or upgraded nothing notebook: memory, CPU, etc.

    I opened and took every piece of it: internal battery, motherboard, sound card, leds and buttons edge... and I tried to connect our case so t may be a short circuit with no luck at all.

    What is a BIOS problem?

    The BIOS can be reflashed in this State, as the AWARD BIOS?

    Are there keys or buttons I could press to enter a kind of mode to diagnose or service?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    The Tecra 8100 doesn t supports no internal memory. Two memory slots are available, and it depends on the unit memory has been installed.
    Always is it that you can improve it to max 512 MB (2 x 256 MB)

    Now to you deliver; It sounds like a hardware problem, but no one could be able to provide a diagnosis exactly what we can do is speculate on the fault.
    I think that it s a motherboard problem
