Why not start 4090XCDT Satellite with DVD-R/W drive?

• SOLVED: Why don't Satellite 4090XCDT does not start with DVD-R/W drive?

  Hello
  as I said in the other thread that has already been closed, I bought a used Satellite phone who would not start of 3rd party DVD - RW (Quanta Storage SDW-042) included, even if Windows couldn't read well enough.

  I found out why, starting with the help of the user answers in the other thread.

  In the user manual, there is a description in the capitel on the configuration of the system about tconfig, which proved to be a valuable indication: HDD = Primary IDE (1F0H/IRQ14) (...), CD = secondary IDE (170 H/IRQ15). Compared to my desktop, it seems to me that two readers need to be masters on no. 1 and no. 2 cable, not as master and slave on the same cable from HARD drive. So, my CD-ROM would probably be master.
  Then I did the research further into the issue and found out, that there is no CD-ROM where select things cable if they are master or slave. Then I found in
  http://www.dschen.de/laptop_brenner/ a note in his Toshiba Satellite Pro 4290, seemed to be no Cable Select and his planned book on the CD (or DVD player, he wants to use) as a master.
  CSEL means that 47 Pin is connected to the Earth, which he did by applying a drop of Tin from Pin 47 to 49, pine, which is also Pin 47. I tried the same thing and disassembled the DVD drive that was in my notebook. (My record to disassemble my laptop and all editing again properly is now gone in 50 minutes). And know what, my Satellite 4090XCDT can now boot from the DVD-RW!

  To perform the task, I needed a screwdriver of the watchmaker to open the DVD RW (three live, then you need to insert a PIN to open the tray and see the back), a 12 Volt type iron pin solder for SMD and I ordered the strap of welding with a stereo microscope, so this task is not negligible. See the link mentioned to know what pins are bridged (sorry, the website is in German but the picture is clear: in the top row of pines, only you can see, the 2nd and the third from the right). And of course with a replacement part "scrap", you could give your laptop a second life, but you run a risk, because you may not know what you have, master or slave (for firmware or hardware), broken in any case, select cable - and one other Web site indicates that they looked up to 17 variants of firmware in exactly the same drive , depending on what laptop, it was intended for use.

  Nice display. Thank you very much.

• Satellite M45 - does not start after restoration on the new HARD drive

  I installed a new PATA 250 GB HDD on my pc. The BIOS is configured to boot from CD/DVD. Toshiba Recovery disk started cold, start follow-up statement to load a new system on the HARD drive. He made a (quick) format on the HARD drive, spent 50 minutes, copy the files from the CD to the new HARD drive. Followed the instructions to remove the CD and reboot the pc. Did. I get the Toshiba homepage for 2-3 seconds, and then I get a white screen with a white block cursor in the upper corner of the LH of the screen. Looks like it does not find the block on the HARD disk?
  The procedure of collection 3 times with the same results. Checked the BIOS to check that it is configured to boot from the HARD disk after installation.

  The recovery CD is blank. Never used because I bought the PC (3.5 years). Put the new HARD drive in a USB enclosure and formatted with Windows, tried again with the same result? Put the old HDD, PC starts and works very well. Put the live CD Knoppix and boot from that, works very well. See the new HARD drive.

  Thus, any suggestions are appreciated. The recovery CD Toshiba is defective? In any case to test?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Sounds like a problem with the recovery disk or the new HARD disk if your computer starts up fine with the old HARD drive...

  In your case before you start a lengthy discussion, you should try a Microsoft Windows disk to install Windows. If he work it seems that only the recovery disk is defective.

  Otherwise, the HARD disk must be defective. Maybe a bad sector or something else

  Hello

  You must boot from the disc.
  This means that you will need to insert the disc, have to turn on the device, choose ODD as boot device and this will start the recovery process.

• Can not start my Satellite L305D-S5940

  My laptop is Toshiba Satellite L305D-S5940 with Windows Vista Home Premium. The following message comes when I try to start it.

  Windows could not start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. For fox the problem:
  1. Insert your windows installation disc and restart your computer.
  2. Select language settings and then click on "next".
  3. click on "repair your computer".

  If you do not have the disk, contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance.

  File: \Boot\BCD
  Status: 0xc000000f
  Info: An error occurred trying to read the boot configuration data.

  Unfortunately, I do not have the windows installation disc. What am I supposed to do? I can't access "safe mode" by pressing F8. I'd be grateful if someone helped me feed my computer please.

  Now, it's quite complicated especially if you cannot boot your laptop in safe mode.
  I'm afraid you may not do much and best and solution the easiest would be to new installation OS m.

  You don t have the windows installation disc, but you maybe DVD recovery?

• Dimension 8400 will not start up cd or dvd drive

  Hello

  I have a Dimension 8400 that refuses to boot from the CD or dvd drive. In the bios, tried to move 'Onboard or USB CD-ROM Drive' to the first position in the boot sequence. Also, I tried pressing "f12" during startup to access the start menu. I tried to select the "integrated or usb cd-rom" option from there with a cd bootable in both drives and still have had no success.

  Any help will be greatly appreciated, thank you.

  I also have the same problem.  Do not understand why Dell does not address this issue.  Trying to recharge a system using the Dell restore CD and have two CD drives in the system provided with the system and will not start to :(

• Recovery disk will not start on Satellite 1110

  I try to use the recovery on a Satellite 1110 CD. I want to just install fresh Windows. The necessary files are supposed to be on the Toshiba recovery CD that accompanies it.

  So I did what the brochure says, and booted up the laptop to the top with the correct CD in the drive, while pressing 'C '. The notebook ignored the CD ROM and loaded Windows as usual. I repeated three times, each time that the CD ROM whirs a bit but will not start and Windows loads as usual. I have replaced 'C' for F12, chose the CD ROM drive in the list and repeat the process several times. Yet once it wouldn't boot from the CD-ROM.

  I looked at the content of the CD ROM A single MB 447. File of the GHS. The file icon is that generic type "Windows does not know what program this icon is intended to" deals.

  Google believes it is a ghost file and must the ghost installed to run it. This bitch never came with Ghost.

  Anyone here knows a remedy to this problem?

  (NB - I tried clean Windows system restore option, but it just brings back me to September this year. Theres no option that was more early in life for portable computers)

  I am in the United Kingdom, and is a UK machine if that makes a difference.

  Hello Micha

  Is this your ODD works properly with the operating system?

  I put really know what exactly is happening here, but please make sure that you start with recovery CD number 1/2 2/2. The installation of recovery, you can just start with the first recovery CD. Also try please set CD-ROM as firs boot device in the BIOS.

Had a black screen and mouse (can move it). After a few restarts, so I decided to restore before the last update. Backup done but always the same problem (black screen and mouse)

  So I decided to re - install Windows 7, the installation is complete, restart the computer and what I get? Error screen of windows with a few choice you know certainly: "safe mode, start windows etc.," whatever i choose, it is not do anything just restart and come back to the same screen...

  Does anyone have a solution?

  For more information:

  -I'm not a computer novice
  -J' have HD format
  -J' I try Boot CD (do not start) and USB Boot (give me this problem)
  -I don't have Toshiba Recovery CD (I bought the laptop in a big industry in France)
  -Maybe I'll try to install Linu, just to test the HD.

• Can not start my Satellite Pro A10

  I have a Toshiba laptop Satellite Pro A10. When he tries to start windows, it comes up with the "We apologize for the inconvenience, but windows did not start successfully" etc. I tried all the options for example

  Start:
  Safe mode
  Safe mode with networking
  Safe mode with command prompt
  Last known good configuration
  etc.

  None of the options works. All I get is a flow of information about drivers and it then hangs. The last driver in the list is:

  multi (0) disk (0) partition (1) \WINDOWS\System32\Drive rs\Mup.sys

  I can't clear the checkpoint.

  Unfortunately, I can't find the disc that came with the laptop, so I'm well and truly stuck.

  Any suggestions?

  See you soon

  HI Leon,

  It is quite normal that there is a list of drivers displayed when you try to boot into 'safe' mode However, if initialization fails, obviously there is a problem with your operating system and your only options are to try to fix the problem by using the recovery console (you will need to boot from a CD of original Microsoft installation), or you can restore the original Toshiba CD recovery full operating system.
  A third possibility would be to start with a utility such as Norton Ghost or Acronis image backup/restore and restore a backup previously taken by an external device.

  The simplest option is to restore from a backup that is already taken, but if you don't then you would be better restore from the recovery CD Toshiba you can get at any Toshiba authorized Service partner.

  Kind regards

• Firefox does not start .oam file with scrolling parallax effect and if y > 740

  Hello!

  I try to explane my problem. If I place a parallax scrolling page of a lively .oam file, the .oam file does not start (as in firefox!) if the file is higher than y = 740 and if the animation with a scrolling parallax effect.

  Maybe just visit this site, you can see the problem. Please look with firefox!

  http://OAM-test.BusinessCatalyst.com/index.html

  I placed three times exactly the same oam-file with the same scrolling Parallax effects, but with different positions only y

  in safari and IE, no problem. but the third CAO does not start in firefox.

  any suggestion?

  by the way... Why firefox cannot load fonts in the oam file?

  Thank you very much in advance for any help. really need a solution as soon as possible. If there is no way to do it with oam-file perhaps another format without flash (gif)?

  Kind regards

  Ivo

  To work around the problem, you can configure initial field scroll to 1, it works with the third file oam.

  Thank you
