ThinkPad s440 (W8.1 pro) will not start without the cable or charge beyond 49%
Hi all
I searched the forum and the internet, but can't seem to find the answer to my problem:
My s440 Thinkpad laptop (pro W8.1) does not start without the power cord and does not load beyond 49%.
It comes out of the box.
Can anyone help?
Kind regards
Robert
I think he sent you a dud battery. Call Lenovo support and they should send you a new battery

Laptop will not start without the battery attached
Hello
I have a Hp pavilion dv6700 series (dv6840el) and just, it will not start without the battery attached.
If I plug in the AC adapter, I get some computer activity (fan, noise of the dvd player and HD drive spins) for about 5 seconds, then shuts down.
Once I plug the battery (which is dying, who need a replacement), the laptop starts fine.
So my question is: what is a motherboard or a problem with the AC adapter?
The AC adapter looks ok, however. But if I am considering buying a spare battery, I assure you that I have a new adapter as well.
Thanks in advance.

Vista - computer will not start without the disc
loaded vista on my computer - now computer will not start without the disc
Went into my bios as suggested to check the boot order - and, Yes, I got HDD1 as first boot then CD - but then I remembered something I had seen earlier on my computer - it was on the list the HD which had my system like HDD0 files - so, I checked and there it was - listed option HDD0 so I changed HDD1 of HDD0 and was able to boot my computer without the disk system. Hope this helps someone else with the same prob.

My 2009 macbook pro will not load. The technician said that the motherboard must be replaced. Is there a less expensive repair?
Apple has set the rates, price around $300 repair program. I don't think you can get a price of paste elsewhere. However, there are third-party sites that provide repairs, parts and helpful videos. Google is your friend.

Method 3
If the computer can boot in any mode, then I suggest that you perform the clean boot procedure and check if it helps.
It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.
To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

Computer will not start at the top. I was first getting a 'file problem' message on nv4_mini.sys. After finding that someone else had the same problem and I responded went to try the solution but then started to get the message that the file: \windows\system32\config\system is missing or corupted. Have tried to do where I could start up in safe mode and cannot. Tried to boot from the installation CD, but when I try to make the system recovery and choose the system to recover nothing happens. This isn't regarding the password. I have a Dimension 4500 XP sp3

XP Home Edition does not start without the installation CD after reinstall.
I reinstalled XP Home Edition on my PC without formatting the drive first in order to keep all of my data. I have installed all service packs. However, for some reason, I had to call Microsoft to get validated. The only problem I have now is that it does not start without the installation CD in the drive. I have XP on the half before the C drive and me on the back of half. The reader is a digital WD800JBRTL of Western. Well it worked like that for years. Why can I now not start without the CD?
HiNeal2660,
It seems that the NTLDR file is not on the C: drive. NTLDR is the boot loader for all versions of Windows.
You can perform a Windows XP repair installation & check if you are able to start normally.
For more information, please visit this link: perform a repair Installation
Hope the helps of information. Please post back and we do know.

L50 - B satellite will not start when the battery is completely discharged
Hello
My Toshiba L50 - B won't start when the battery is fully drained but connected to the power outlet.
I try to work most of the time on the battery to keep the battery in good shape, but when I forgot to turn off the battery drains and the system will not start when I plug in the adapter.The battery charge indicator is orange light as it should. Only when the battery is fully charged to 100%, it will run at startup and function normally after that. I tried to turn on the laptop several times during the charge cycle, but only when the charge indicator changes from yellow to white it starts. Tested for 2 bodies.
My old Toshiba always immediately turned on when I plugged the adapter even when the battery has been completely drained. Am I missing a setting somewhere?
Thanks for responding... I hope well :-)
Toshiba L50 - B
Windows 8.1
Any standard/original setting since I only acquired this laptop a month ago.The laptop should light up if the power adapter is plugged in and power the laptop corectly any if the battery is empty or during charge.
Please check the version of the BIOS that is available on your mobile phone and compare with the BIOS available on the page of the Toshiba UE driver
Maybe you need to update the BIOS, but to be honest, the history seems really odd to me and I m afraid that there could be some power supply electronic problemSo in the worst case, the laptop must be checked by authorized service provider.

L50-A-19N satellite will not start in the BIOS
Hello
I have a problem with my laptop.
I have installed 8.1 and fedora 20 windows.I was in fedora, when I decided to restart Windows.
Instead of grub, I saw message with the error and my notebook has stopped booting.I pressed the power button / stop, he died but when Im trying to start it again, I see the logo of Toshiba Leading Innovation and that's it.
It will not start any further.
I decided to get my system, but when I press F2 or F12, nothing happens.
I can't get into the BIOS!Please, help me to solve it.
Somehow, this seems really strange
I m wondering why you are unable to access the BIOSWhat you can try to do is, remove the laptop HARD drive and switch on and press F2.
From my point of view of the rare even if the isn't HARD drive connected, you should be able to access the BIOS.But for Pierre, I'm not very well your laptop problem is related to the faulty / corrupt Boot partition m
However, your comments would be greatly appreciated

computer will not start with the disc
I use vista and my computer does not start because of a corrupted file.
I put my vista disk in such suggested, but the screen does not move any command of keys to press and just goes round in a loop. So I can't the computer to start and fix.
I changed the bios to boot from the cd as first choice but still no results.
can anyone help?
Could it be that the disk driver does not work like the disk isn't loading? Or the disc will not load because the press any key order is not coming?
I am old enough and not very technically experienced but this computer has served me well and I have a lot of information that I need to go down there if I have to buy another.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
If you have correctly setting the boot order in the BIOS to CD/DVD first, and the computer does not start, your problem has nothing to do with the driver for the CD/DVD drive. Also running in safe mode or SFC can maybe help you.
The reason that pilots, safe mode and FCS can help you is the same for all three: boot (if from the hard drive or a CD or DVD) takes place before loading Windows. If it boots from a CD or a bootable DVD, the problem has nothing to do with Windows. It's a hardware problem. I don't know what the problem is, but it is possible that the CD/DVD drive is dead.
What is wrong can but fixable, but whether it is cost-effective to do so is another matter. It depends on what the problem is. If the CD/DVD player, they are inexpensive, so replacement should not be expensive. Fortunately, it's not like there is a problem with the hard drive, so even if you buy a new computer, you must be able to remove the hard drive from the old computer, put it in an external enclosure and to transfer the data to the new computer.
Let me add another point: you say "I have a lot of information that I need to get off it if I have to buy another." This suggests that you don't regularly back up your data on an external support. If this is the case, you've played with fire. It is always possible that a hard disk crash, the user error, close to love at first sight, virus attack, even stolen computer, can result in the loss of everything on your drive. As it has often been said, it is not a question of whether you will have a problem, but when.

Hello!
I have the Toshiba Satellite S55D A5383 laptop and I have a problem with the battery, I think.
Laptop does not start without power. What is happening since last week.
In fact, since April 2015 battery does not last as it did when I bought (may 2014).
I have'nt registered the product and I think I'm out of warranty.So, what can I do to fix this?
You'll probably just get a new battery which is what I did. Try Amazon.
