• S10 Boot Sequence

  I just bought an S10 with double SATA 250 GB drives and Vista Business 64. Apart from travel account that my collection of 25 years of the old DOS utilities no longer work (due to lack of Vista/Intel), I noticed that only 250 GB of total hard disk space has been reported. The second disc does not appear to exist at all.

  I have now correctly partitioned disk 2 and in format FAT and FAT32 and these volumes appeared as valid in Vista 64, but what I want to do is set up the drive with another OS (maybe XP or 2 K, maybe Linux or even BACK/Win98).

  I had no trouble installing an experimental BACK/Win98 on the second disc, but I don't see how to boot from that disk. If I boot from a suitable CD, Player 2 is presented as "C:", "D:", etc. and I can run in the BACK, but I can't boot from the hard disk directly.

  So here's the question:

  HOW CAN I INCLUDE MY SECOND SATA DRIVE IN THE POST F12 BOOT SEQUENCE?

  Any help (rather than derision to my secondary OS choices :-)) would be greatly appreciated!

  Thanks in advance,

  Brian

  
  

• Satellite A40 - boot sequence problems

  Hello!

  I just bought a used Toshiba Satellite A40. He had a almost crashed Windows XP is installed. I'm trying to put a new copy of Windows XP on it, but I can't boot from the CD. By pressing the done nothing F12 key and when I access BIOS (v. 1.50), I can't change the boot sequence. The only things that I can access are the date and time. Help, please!

  Thanks in advance!
  See you soon!

  Hi moldovanvali,
  long story short - long said...
  -charge the battery fully
  -Start computer laptop game + time and date +.
  -Restart and load setup defaults + +.
  -change the boot for odd sequence +, + cdrom + or similar
  your system should now boot from the cd without pressing on + F12 +.

  If it does not start on cd/dvd maybe the optical disk drive is not able to start...
  There are many reasons for this...

  BTW: without entering a date and a time when the system starts only pressing on * F1 * (most cases)

• For Satellite Pro M70 boot sequence

  Issues related to the:

  1. What is the default setting for the boot to the Satellite Pro M70 sequence?

  2. What is the procedure for changing the boot during the start-up phase sequence?

  3. What is the most 'sensitive' boot sequence, with & without an attached external floppy drive?

  Thank you
  AlanCB

  Well, I'm not 100% sure but I think the default start setting is:
  DISK HARD-CD/DVD-FDD-LAN
  However, you can set and change parameters in the Toshiba HWSetup that is located in Control Panel.

  Just FYI: by pressing a key during POST, you can choose the boot device.
  D - default system
  U USB FDD
  1 - disc HARD bed
  2 - slim select bay (if available) HDD
  C - CD rom
  N - network LAN
  P - PC HDD (PCMCIA) card

  But these options are not always available.

• Qosmio F30 starts with blue stripes during Vista boot screen

  My Qosmio F30-114 runs for years without problem with Vista Ultimate.

  In recent days, there is a huge problem.

  The Qosmio starts with blue stripes during vista boot screen.

  So I deleted the driver for the graphics card and used the standard vga driver for the card. the wizard of material found one driver on the system.
  For a brief moment, I was very lucky.

  After a reboot, there was a blue screen. After the next restard again once the driver to the standard vga card.

  What can I do?

  The download section of toshiba has no drivers for graphics card.
  And really... I wonder - how it works every year without problems...

  Someone at - it a solution?

  thanx

  toshibalover ;-)

  Hello!

  First you have this problem on an external monitor too or only on the screen internal? Maybe it s is not a graphics card problem so check it with an external monitor.

  I checked the Web from Toshiba site and I can find drivers for the Qosmio F30:

• Portege R200 cannot set on the BIOS boot sequence

  Hi all.

  Our R200 entered mode of hibernation after that the battery power is low, then by some unfortunate twist of fate, the battery got deleted accidentally. Now it does not start correctly because every time it displays a BSOD stating Unmountable_Boot_Volume.

  I could solve this problem easily by disabling the hiberfil.sys file, which is the reason for the BSOD, if only I could change the boot order. Unfortunately, enter the BIOS, I am only able to access the first page where the only editable elements are time, date, and passwords. Pressing Pageup and Pagedn does nothing. The BIOS is updated to the last appearing on this site.

  Pressing F12 or F2 when the toshiba logo and icons appear does nothing no more. It's a HARD disk 1.8 "and there are no adapters available in our region. I can boot from a CD if and only if I take the HD. But then, it is useless since I can't fix it like that. It is not recognized if I it reconnect after booting. When I reboot, it does the BSOD thing again. It is becoming a frustrating cycle.

  I scoured these forums for other ways to boot from the CD and apply the suggestions, like hitting 'c', nothing helps.

  Any help would be much appreciated.

  Thanks in advance.

• Qosmio G35-AV650: how remove Vista Boot Manager and install XP

  OK, I got the g35-av650 - US. I don't see any good American forum Toshiba, so I post here.
  First of all, I must say I'm getting very frustrated.

  1: I upgraded my BIOS to try to install windows vista. Vista installed, however, it works well. It must be driver problems. I deleted the partition that I allocated for Vista. Now, how the hell do I remove the screen/start menu in vista.
  I want to get back my XP operating system selection screen.
  I think it has to do with the boot record.

  2: my bluetooth isn't all work more (don't ask me why...) After that I updated the BIOS to version 1.40 to the newest 3.30.

  The recovery CD said I use the CD in the computer wrong? Is it possible to downgrade the BIOS/solve this problem, or bypass it.

  Thanks for the responses, because they will be very appreciated.

  Hello

  (1.) you want to reinstall XP on the HARD drive or you want to cancel only the vista Boot Manager.
  Usually after reinstalling XP, the boot manager should disappear.

  But I found these tips step by step in the internet:

  -Start your computer in Windows XP.
  -Make sure you have the image of Vista DVD emulated or in the DVD drive.
  -Go to start and run. Type in e:\boot\bootsect.exe/nt52 ALL/force (without the quotation marks and replace e: with the letter of your Vista DVD).
  -Restart the computer, and you notice that the selection of start menu disappeared.
  -Format the partition/drive where you installed Vista.
  -Remove the two (Boot.BAK and Bootsect.BAK) files on your file of root of drives XP (c), it was backup of your previous boot loader files, now is more useful.
  -Optional: Restart to make sure it still works.
  -Use your partition software to merge your partitions.

  2.), I hope that you have used the BIOS from the page we Toshiba. However, the BIOS update should not has a bad influence on the functionality of BT. Try to download the latest driver for BT and install again.

• Key to activate the USB on Satellite M70 boot sequence

  I have a Satellite M70 with Bootable USB connected on a USB key.

  "After cold start if I press F2 to select the boot sequence, a" + "sign near the HARD drive may be developed (such as a directory in explorer.exe) HDD / USBdevice by pressing the"Ctrl + Enter"."

  Then you can choose the HARD drive or USB key to start.
  But if I press F12, I had the same pattern as before (+ HDD) but 'Enter' or 'Ctrl + Enter '.
  does'nt put the HARD drive / USB stick but the boot disk HARD and Windows to start.

  My question:

  After pressing F12 key support to allow a start on USBdevice?

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Usually, if you use the F12 key to start up you can use up and down arrows to choose the right device and if you press ENTER the boot device will start.

  In your case it doesn't start t because you cannot use USB to start but the floppy USB drive.

• Compaq presario cq61: change the boot sequence

  I have 10 Windows upgrade on my compaq Presario cq61 free. I want to do a clean install of Windows 10. I downloaded the tool of Microsoft Media, made a key USB and DVD containing the clean install. I am told that the use of the flash player, I have to change the boot sequence in the bios. I tried everything from ESC, all numbers F and LED to try to enter the bios and all have failed. Told me that all I had to do with the DVD was just put it in and start the computer and the laptop would boot from the DVD and I could make my own installation from there. Which also failed. The only thing I have not tried is downgrade to Windows 7, affecting Windows 7 back to factory settings, then reinstall the free update of Windows 10. I would not have to go through all if I mostly because I bought the laptop from a friend and it was installed at the factory of Windows 7 and I don't got no disc software to the computer so I don't want to screw up and drop windows 7 without the appropriate software reinstall to match the product key.

  Any help to enter in the bios or advice that could help me reach my goal would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  Here are some other suggestions.

  1. start the machine in Windows 10.

  Open settings and select System.  Select food and sleep, and then click additional power settings - in the next window, click on "Choose what the power button" in the left pane.

  In the next window, click on "Change settings that are currently unavailable" (close), then Remove the check mark from the box against 'Turn on a quick start (recommended) '.  Click on the button Save the settings, and then close any open windows and stop the laptop by right clicking on the icon from the Start Menu, then select prompt (Admin) and click 'Yes' to the uac prompt.

  Type (or copy and paste) the following command (including spaces) and click Enter.

  Shutdown /s /t 0

  Tap on the ESC key as soon as you turn it on and see if it will now access the Start Menu.

  2 try to connect a keyboard external usb and see if this will allow you to access the Start Menu.

  Kind regards

• Sat L830-145 change boot sequence

  My old Tosh Pro 200 showed the BIOS options at startup, and you could press F12 to change the boot sequence. But myy new Sat L830-145 shows no option in the BIOS at startup and just starts in Windows 8.
  I found among the bloatware on the new machine, an installed Toshiba utility that is supposed to activate the start sequence be changed.

  So I used to put the USB at the top, followed by the optical drive, followed by the HARD drive.
  But it does not appear to have made all the difference. I have a USB key with Ubuntu installed fully on it that I wanted to start, but it seems not recognized (unlike when I use it on my old machine - so nothing wrong with the stick, or how it is configured) and continues just to boot to the HARD drive and Windows 8.
  Then...
  Anyone know how I can change the boot on this Satellite L830-145 sequence?

  Best
  David

  When Win8 running proceed to a complete stop. How to do this, you can check on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2B03EY0002R01.htm
  After doing this start your laptop and press F12 repeatedly to enter the boot menu. You, that you will find the possibility to enter the BIOS settings, or you can start a computer laptop choose which device should be the first boot device.

• HP Phoenix h9 - 1215t: boot sequence

  My PC will not boot from the CD drive, it always starts the HD.  The BIOS boot sequence is set to boot from the CD first.  The CD drives work, but are ignored by the configuration of the BIOS boot sequence.  It does not even boot from the recovery CD HP can I bought 7.  I tried some other boot floppies that work on other computers and disks aren't the issue.  There is another configuration of the BIOS that need attention?  It will be a major problem if it becomes necessary to reinstall the OS if the hard drive is replaced.  Motherboard is a 2AD5 from Pegatron and FRIEND 7.15 BIOS 02/07/2012.

  I have two other computers, a printer, HP and Dell, and both of them have the boot sequence of the BIOS on the priority CD player.  If there is a CD bootable in the drive at startup, computers that recognize and started automatically from CD drive without pressing a button any.

  The computer HP Phoenix poster briefly notice at startup press ESC to display the start menu.  I ignored it because I assumed (should not have done that) the Phoenix would respond according to the sequence of the BIOS boot that has the CD-ROM drive as the first boot device.  The start menu allowed me to select the CD ATAPI drive inherited to start from.

  Lesson learned and problem solved, thank you.

• How can I fix my XP do not go to Setup boot sequence

  Somehow I messed up my boot sequence and now whenever I start, he goes to the selection of the F2 to enter setup or F1 to continue.  It seems works continue, but of course, I have an error in something.

  My windows is XP

  Anyone have a suggestion on how to restore my startup?

  Doug

  The seemingly obvious solution is to hit the F2 key to enter setup and fix everything that is bad.  The BIOS settings are closely related to the motherboard and vary a lot.  Some allow re-scan devices and then save the setting.  It seems that there is a setting in the BIOS that the system doesn't seem to like when it starts.  You just need find and fix.

  HTH,
