One! Kindly help me.
The BIOS update will solve this problem?

Thanks in advance.

Hello

You are able to access the BIOS?

> The BIOS update will solve this problem?
How you want to update the BIOS if you n t nothing appears on the screen?
You'll have to start in windows to update the BIOS on this U400!

Please connect an external monitor to the laptop and check if something wouldn't be visible on the external display!

    I agree with Liam.
    The indicator flashes as a serious hardware problem was detected.
    What you could do is remove the RAM modules and test the device with the new test modules but I guess that is not RAM problem but something wrong with the motherboard.

    Hi Drtonk,

    I understand that you have a problem with the laptop won't start not passed the Windows logo. You can follow this link to perform a hard reset

    Please note disconnect any external devices to devices such as USB, external displays storage devices and printers.

    You could try a System Restore when Windows 7 cannot start normally

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you.

  • Unable to start my laptop Toshiba

    Basically, later yesterday my computer froze so I decided to plant it. I turned the computer back on but I can't actually back into the computer that I start, then a black page appears telling me that the computer could not initialize correctly.

    I am presented with several options. I can't get into Safe Mode or start Windows normally.
    However, Safe Mode does not work, I have a page with errors in all directions.

    When I try to start Windows normally Windows XP logo appears and everything seems normal, until a blue screen appears quickly and then goes almost immediately, then Im back to the original page that explains that the computer failed to boot normally.

    I need serious help. I'm only 17, and not a computer expert!

    Why you n t take a Toshiba recovery disc and reinstall the OS again?
    But the recovery procedure would format the whole HARD drive and you will lose the files stored on the HARD drive.

    But according to your message did not help to boot into windows XP
    To my eyes there so no other solution as a new OS install

  • Unable to start my laptop

    Hello!

    I have a huge problem, and I would be grateful if someone could help me please.

    I was afraid that I had a virus on my laptop, so I installed Avast!. He successfully installed and asked me if I wanted to analyze the computer on the next boot. I agree to it, and the computer restarts automatically, scanning of disks, as expected. When he finished, a message popped up that there was a mistake in the log - in procedure and the screen went black. I can't restart since then.

    The small bulb, which indicates that the computer is lights up whenever I press the power button, but nothing happens. The screen is always black. When I press the power button once again, the light changes to orange as if she was napping or something.
    What should I do? It's a brand new computer, so it cannot end like this!

    Help, please!

    THX

    Hello

    Maybe you could post the exact model of notebook you?
    Have you tried to reinstall the OS using the Toshiba recovery disc or HARD drive recovery option?

    Otherwise, try it!
    Of course this would format the whole HARD drive that would kill the virus too

  • Satellite U400-177 with the slow start of vista

    About two weeks ago, I bought a computer laptop satellite U400-177, with an operating system installed vista Home premium. Since the first moment, when I turn on the machine, the operating system startup is desperately slow! It takes about five minutes for the laptop end the beginning to start working! Is there something I can do to compensate for the departure faster?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    I m U400 owner.
    I must say that a lot of apps is preinstalled by Toshiba and this could affect the startup time

    First of all, you must either update the Tempro tool or you should remove it (if you need t n).
    Second, you must start the msconfig and in the Startup tab you could disable some not important background processes.
    I put t know what is important to you and you want to use applications.

    If you n t know the meaning of some process then google for that in most cases, you could get a few details

  • After McAfee, updated by Satellite U400 restarts just

    Hello

    I just brought a laptop Satellite U400-14 b and last night he went to do an update on the free McAfee Security 30-day thing and everything seemed fine, but this morning when I tried to turn it on it just keeps restarting insofar as the front page of the main window screen. I was wondering if anyone knows what to do.

    Thanks much Topaz

    try to start your computer in safe mode. Use the system restore and restore the operating system to the earlier era. I hope this will help you to rebuild your laptop properly.
    If it works then remove McAfee and install Avira AntiVir. This will make your life much better. This app is really good. Not a not a lot of resources, just a few seconds, address updates and does not need to be restarted. I use it for years and it is, for me, the best.

  • Satellite U400-131 crashed while the screen of the BIOS udpate - now black

    Someone knows how to fix this?

    Thank you

    Vries Matthijs

    This bad s Companion
    It was the worst case that could appear wile BIOS update.

    There is not a lot of things you could try
    In your case the ASP must be contacted in order to check the machine and the module ROM where the BIOS is stored

    If you're lucky, while the ROM module must be flashed again and the laptop should start again if the worst cases the motherboard must be replaced.
