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

  • mouse not working not properly. It jumps all over the screen by itself

    Since the upgrade to the latest version of El Capitan, I have a problem with my mouse and my Trackpad 2. The trackpad does not at all even though it is connected and bluetooth works. The mouse jumps around on the screen and it is difficult to land on the site I want.

    If the mouse you mention is a Magic Mouse 1, which is probably the reason why.   Magic mouse 1 works up to a point, but you need Magic Mouse 2 for maximum effect, once you have upgraded to El Capitan.  I would add, with new OS on the horizon (Sierra), your need for MM2 becomes even more pressing.

  • 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

  • Windows does not start successfully - only in safe mode.

    I have a 3200 HP with XP Home Edition. Windows starts only in Mode safe when I download Service Pack 3. Is there a way to fix this without doing a complete restore of the system.  I've been running without SP3 because I knew of this issue. Recently, it has been downloaded and now Windows does not start successfully.  Only in Safe Mode.   When I discovered this problem, I was able to fix it, but can't remember if it was fixed without doing a complete restore of the system and starting over.

  • 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!

  • Satellite M30-107 does not start successfully after using recovery disk

    Hello

    I recently got my hands on a toshiba Satellite M30-107 laptop second hand and decided to freshen it.
    I used the toshiba recovery disk, but after that the laptop is no longer support windows.

    When turned on it shows booting Toshiba disc for about a second then goes to a screen blank and freezes.
    When turned on, once again, a screen will appear an error by stopping and offer the opportunity to start in SafeMode etc but choose one of the options causes the machine to freeze.

    Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

    Thank you
    JT

    Hello

    Sounds a little like the laptop does not start because of the problem of Windows software
    You did not recover the M30 with the original Toshiba that was provided with this device M30 recovery CD?

    I may be wrong, but to me it looks like a recovery CD incorrect has been used and an image with drivers not compatible m has been installed

    You can try to install the OS of Microsoft Win XP original CD and could check if it would be possible to get the notebook ruin using own BONE.

    In this case we (you and me ;)) might know if this problem could be related to hardware or software.

    Good bye

  • 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?

  • 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!

  • 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. :(

  • M - series of satellites does not start successfully

    Hello

    I have the following problem: all of a sudden (don't know why, nothing has changed) portable Satellite shows black white screen with all the following:

    (Sorry, translated from German):

    Windows does not started correctly... due to software or hardware change... If the error was due to stop pls choose last functional configuration...

    But this does not, as all the other options (windows boot as normal starting point, in safe mode... has failed.

    No idea what happenend!

    Problem:

    Actually moved to another country and you have forgotten or lost the recovery CD! already contacted Toshiba for the nine, but perhaps when even someone can help?

    If all goes well it s not a malfunction of the equipment.
    In any case, in the first stage, you should try to reinstall the OS to see if this problem is software or hardware related.
