Cannot start Windows installation on Satellite S50-A-10R

I just bought a Satellite S50-A-10R and I am trying to install Windows on it ... it is not my first time doing this but know I think I hit a block ... I start the laptop , open the DVD-rom , put in the DVD with windows and try to restart the laptop.
When I press on the power button nothing happens. I have to unplug it for it to shut down.
When I power on the laptop again I still receive no message/ doesn't enter Windows installer and it still doesnt close pressing on the power button...
If anyone has any ideas please tell me ...
I set it to boot first from odd
I used a windows 7 and a widows 8,1 DVD but nothing

yes i could enter boot menu ( i modified the boot priority before trying to instal windows) but i do not remember having an option to switch to UEFi just CSM in the options list.
I managed to install win8.1 after destroying about a dozen dvds and after unpluging the laptop twice the number of dvds (because strangely i couldn't shut it down from the power button) ... installed win from a flash drive ... so far so good ... a little strange at first glance ( first time using win 8 ) ...
_I have another question ..._
after installing all the drivers and utilities i tryed using the toshiba hotkeys but nothing appears (i usually use it an my win7 laptop) and can't figure out why... any ideas ?
All installed drivers are for win 8 x64

  • Cannot start Windows installer via Boot Camp

    Hi!
    Recently I cannot start my Vista, so I decided to delete the partition, create a new partition, and reinstall a Vista.
    When I clicked Start Install Windows in Boot Camp, the MacBook Pro restarted and showed a black screen (it should display "Windows is loading files..."). I waited for 10 minutes or so, but nothing changed.
    I tried an XP CD from my friend, and the same thing happened.
    I don't think the DVD went wrong, because I used that DVD to install Vista on my MBP one week ago
    Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

    If the screen goes black and nothing seems to be happening then it sounds like the install process isn't even starting, which seems rather strange. You might try asking for help in the Boot Camp forum in case someone there has had the same problem.
    You said you had several Vista and XP installation discs. Are they copies or authentic? Also, keep in mind that you need an OEM disc to install Windows in Boot Camp, you won't be able to install it from an upgrade disc.

  • Cannot start Windows on my Satellite C850 laptop

    Powers on fast, but only shows Toshiba logo, tried all the F8, 0, keys etc, computer came to me overloaded, no disc clean up, preinstalled windows 8, cannot access BIOS.
    As stated will only show LOGO, no beeping/noise, can hear it running quietly, would like to reset to factory/out of box condition, PSCBWA-09l001 = PART NO. What to do???
    Love a challenge, no disc, no backups, but I know the solution is out there somewhere without paying more big bucks.
    Grateful for any suggestions.

    It looks like the Satellite C850 PSCBWA-09L001 was released in Australia.
    The notebook was preinstalled with Win 8.
    There are two possibilities to set the notebook back to factory settings:
    1) HDD recovery
    2) Recovery disk (DVD or USB flash memory stick)
    Here an instruction:
    [How to access Recovery, Restore and Reset Options in Windows 8|http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/items/faq/776]
    To access the System HDD Restore, Refresh and Reset options using the F12 option at start up, perform the following:
    1. If not already, ensure the computer is completely shut down.
    2. Now restart the computer by pressing the power button - IMMEDIATELY start tapping the F12 key on the keyboard until the "Boot Menu" screen appears.
    3. Using the arrow keys, select <HDD Recovery> and press "Enter".
    4. On the next screen you are asked to confirm if you want to continue with recovery. Select "Yes".
    5. The computer will bring you to the Advanced start up screen.
    6. Select Troubleshoot. Under Troubleshoot you will see Refresh and Reset.
    7. Select Advanced options. Located here is "System Restore."

  • Windows cannot start the installation process

    I have windows server 2012 datacenter with hyper-v role that I tried to upgrade to R2 RTM.
    All went fine until the reboot and the error "windows cannot start the installation process"
    I can start windows server 2012
    I must say that I used a ISO file using DRAC for the install.
    Is there a log to check for errors?

    Hi,
    Just a thought, check to see what your BIOS settings are on your computer.
    This problem is usually related some potential problem in the disk or BIOS or faulty hardware. The BIOS sometimes limits the read/write scope of boot sectors, to avoid virus attack. 
    Review the BIOS setting, if there’s any Anti-Virus settings, just disable it, and then start the install again.

  • Can't install photoshop elements 12 since it can't start windows installer

    Hi,
    I have got a new PC and now try installing my Photoshop Elements 12. The installation program tries to start Windows installer:
    Sorry the message is in Swedish. In English it would probably be "It was impossible to access the service Windows Installer. This can happen if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed. Contact the company's support for further help.
    I tried searching for downloads of Windows Installer, but there's no download version for Windows 7.
    Is there anybody else who faced such problem? How have you solved it?

  • Cannot start Windows Server installation

    Hi,
    I want to upgrade my Server 2008 R2 to Server 2012 R2. But everytime I start the setup in Windows for an in-place upgrade,  an error message pops-up saying "Windows Setup experienced an unexpected error. To install Windows, restart the
    installation.", right after the "Setup is starting..." stage.
    This doesn't have to do with the media or drive. I tried with a virtual drive, and still the same. It doesn't have to do with the image as well, the same error appears if I try to start a Server 2008 R2 installation or any other Windows installation.
    The OS hard disk is a dynamic hard disk.
    Here is the log from Setup.act:

  • Satellite A300 - Cannot start Windows and cannot repair it

    hey
    first i must say my englisch is not the best ;)
    But i hope u undersrand my problem and can help me plz
    Today i bought a A300 notebook
    I have formatiert the second hard drive
    Now i can start windows and i can't repair my system and install new windows
    Please help me !!!!!
    and sorry again for my bad englisch ^^

    To be honest I dont understand your question
    If you have formatted the second HDD this should not be a problem to start Windows.
    Have you burned the recovery disk? Then boot from it and install the notebook.

  • Cannot start recovery installation on my Satellite A200-28P

    I am trying to restore my Toshiba laptop Satellite A200-28P (Windows Vista Home) using the product recovery disk supplied with the laptop, no matter what I try to do I cannot get it to run, the only thing it will allow me to do is restore the laptop to an earlier date. I have full admin rights on the laptop, there are no virus's or any other malware on it, all this seems to have happened since it updated with windows vista about two days ago, have uninstalled the updates but that had no effect.
    I cannot find the recovery console any where on the laptop yet I know it was there before. I have tried many of the solutions found on the web but none of them work. I did use the recovery disc about 2 1/2 years ago when the laptop crashed and it worked fine then.
    Any help apprecited

    I cannot remember anymore how it was with A200.
    Have you got recovery DVD only or you were also able to start HDD recovery installation using F8 at start up (Advanced boot options > Repair my computer)?
    Anyway, your problem description confuses me.
    If you use recovery DVD as bootable disc there is no repair console or some options.
    When recovery installation starts you can just see menu where you must click on next.
    Please check my lats posting on http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=61124
    Can you see the same when notebook starts to read recovery disc?

    So how can i fix this not recognize thing do i need too download a driver or something like that
    Need heeeelp :(

    Hello
    Your posting is pretty confusing and it is not easy to understand you.
    I dont understand which setup file you want to use but you cannot install operating system with click on some setup file.
    You can install Windows 7 using Toshiba recovery image (if you got one) or using original Microsoft Windows 7 installation disc.
    So please be nice and explain to me which disc do you have and how do you try to install Windows 7.

  • Cannot install Windows on my Satellite C660-162

    I have a Satellite C660-162 and suddenly it was soo slow so I tried to install a new Windows but I could not install it and gives me this error Windows cannot be installed to disk 0 partition 1 or 2 and when I press it " Windows cannot be installed to this disk. This computers hardware may not support booting to the disk. Ensure that the disks controller is enabled in the computers bios menu".
    Then Ive changed the boot priority or something like it to fast and it was normal after that my Toshiba logo does not appear and I cannot enter the bios setup.
    Thanx

    Hi
    You said that your notebook was slow
    I think this was related to the HDD malfunction
    The Toshiba logo does not appear anymore because you changed the option to Fast boot. Usually you should be able to get it back by settings the BIOS to default.
    Power up the unit and press F2 press F2 several times in the row you can also try to press and hold F2 and then press power button this should allow you to access the BIOS again
    However, if you want to change the boot device you can also press F12 and then the boot menu should appear on the screen now you will be able to choose your favorite boot device.

  • Boot camp cannot detect windows installer disk.

    Hi. I wanted to install windows xp on my macbook using bootcamp. After i made a partition with boot camp assistant 3.0, i insert my windows xp disk with service pack 2 in it, and click start installation. However, boot camp could not detect the installer disk, even though it did appear in finder.
    Please help.
    Thanks.

    Well, when i restarted my mac, and hold down the option key, there is only 1 choice for me to choose, which is Macintosh HD. There is no other option. However, the installer disk did appear in my finder. So I am not sure whats happening...

  • Cannot start recovery installation for Portege M200

    Hi,
    I already used the recovery DVD long time ago but now it wont start. Instructions tell to:
    1st insert the disk
    2nd turn the pc on while keeping the C key pressed
    3rd follow the instructions which are appearing on the screen
    I tried as described but nothing happens and windows start normally. I also tried to open the DVD when the pc was on and I can see the files but cant start the process.
    Can anybody help me to solve this problem?

    Hi there,
    have you tried booting from the DVD? Obviously u can see the files on the DVD but maybe you need to change the boot order so it boots from the DVD instead. To do this, restart the computer then press F2 when you see the Toshiba logo on the screen while booting up (F2 or whatever key it tells you to press to enter the setup).
    Within the BIOS setup go over to the boot order and swap the CD/DVD with the HDD so that the CD/DVD is at the top of the list. Go over in the BIOS menu and Exit Saving Changes and the computer will restart. Hopefully the recovery DVD should now boot, if this works and upon completion of all installations go back into the BIOS menu and follow the same instructions to change the CD/DVD back to second, and put HDD back to the top of the list.
    Hopefully this answers your question.

  • Cannot install Windows 8 on Satellite L750 - CPU compatibility issue

    Why can I not install Windows 8 Consumer Preview on my Toshiba Satellite L750-22x?
    I get a processor compatibility error.
    Intel i3 M380 2.53GHz

    Hi
    The internet provides some details about this error message.
    It seem that in order to install the Win 8 CP the CPU should support PAE/NX/SSE2 features
    Never-eXecute Bit ( [NX bit|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NX_bit] ) allows marking of memory pages as non-executable.
    Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 (SSE2) is a previous standard that is supported by Intel and AMD CPU. Therefore all CPUs that support NX would also support SSE2 too.
    Usually enabling the XD (for Intel CPUs) or NX (for AMD CPUs) in BIOS should disable this error message.
    But if this is not available in BIOS then either the CPU does not supports this feature or the BIOS does not support this option.
    According to Intel Ark page the Intel Core i3-380M supports Execute Disable Bit. So possibly the BIOS does not support this feature
    http://ark.intel.com/products/50178/Intel-Core-i3-380M-Processor-
    It seems you need to wait for new BIOS

  • Bootcamp cannot start windows

    I have a 2009 macbook pro 15'' with Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and Bootcamp 5.0, and recently have been having problems using bootcamp. From a few years now, I have Windows 7 installed with Bootcamp and never had any problems until now. I can start the computer in OS X with no problems, but when I restart and press the option key and it lets me choose between Macintosh HD, Windows and some recovery thing. The problem is: no matter which option I choose it always boots on Macintosh HD. I tried rebooting several times and it keeps happening the same. Any ideas?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    It's possible that your hard drive is damaged. Hold Command and R keys while your computer is starting to start into OS X Recovery. Then, open Disk Utility, choose the hard drive at the top of the sidebar and look at the bottom of the window, so search for the SMART status. What does it say?
    If it has failed, make a backup of your data and get a new hard drive. You can use any 9.5 mm 2'5" SATA hard drive with your computer. You can find some at OWC > http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-Notebook/
