Tecra M10 - does not start only beeps

My Tecra won't start. It sounds right. I checked the RAM and battery. I removed the keyboard, but without success.

What is going on?

Concerning

Hello!

Normally beep code at startup means that it s something wrong with the hardware (hardware malfunction).

To identify what is the cause, you can search with Google. There are a few websites that shows what the beep code (depending on the BIOS you have).

It could be the RAM, CPU, graphics card or something on the motherboard.

But if your laptop is under warranty, you can contact an ASP. The repair should be free. ;)

Good bye

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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 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 :(

  • Satellite 2450 does not start - only in safe mode

    Hello

    I'm having a problem with my Satellite 2450 where it is not initialize properly - is stuck in the screen of Windows XP (just continues to scroll through and hangs there).
    I can boot into safe mode.
    Have not had any other problems with it - no errors, do not have installed/uninstalled anything recently.

    Any ideas what could cause this problem?
    Do you think I should use the recovery disk to reinstall the OS? Anything less drastic I can try?

    any advice appreciated,
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Usually, if the laptop does not start correctly in normal mode, but only in SafeMode because some drivers or / and software applications are false or defective.
    In this case, the recovery procedure should solve this problem.
    If you n t have the Toshiba Recovery CD, you can install from the original CD of Microsoft's operating system, and then you can try to install stuff together from Toshiba (driver, tools)
    These software, you will find on the page of the Toshiba driver.

  • 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.

    The configuration is the following:

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

    Any advice is welcome!

    Thanks in advance

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

    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 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. :(

  • Tecra S1 does not start-> beep code appears

    Hello

    I have a problem with my Toshiba Tecra S1.
    It won't start, just beep like this:
    -Two shorts and a long
    -So, three short films and and etc.

    I can't find out what BIOS and the significance of these beeps.

    Can someone help me?
    Thank you
    Duditz

    As far as I know, it's an Insyde BIOS on the Tecra S1.
    But I thought you wanted to contact the Toshiba service provider?
    Believe me, the BIOS beep code can be read by a technician with a lot more experience as a common user.
    Eventually, you'll be able to read but you don t know what the code means.
    The meaning of the code differs from BIOS and laptop model
    I don t see other than by contacting the guys services

  • 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

  • Tecra 8100 - does not start and no activity on the screen

    Hello

    My Tecra 8100 not start or take me to the BIOS Setup. It lights up, swirls the hard drive, but there is no activity on the display. The only way I can get something on the screen is turning with the F12 key when I get the 'ready for the update of the BIOS. Place the BIOS update diskette in the drive "... message. So I tried the traditional method of updating the BIOS, found on the Toshiba site, but nothing helped. The machine seems to read the disk (that contains the downloaded BIOS) but does nothing. It is just there for centuries, with the disk light.

    The last two days I have trawled thro much views and even took the whole machine goes to check the connections loose, but I found no answer yet.

    Can someone out there please help?

    Thank you very much

    Hello Rory

    I did the BIOS to be updated several times, but I've never seen this message at startup upward. You did it the traditional method as described in the document which you will find under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/faq.jsp?z=234&service=EU&from=faq_selection&CFID=B IOS & FID = TRO0000000b07?
