KT4V-L rebooting after bios

My system keeps rebooting after the bios screen, before windows loads. ?( ?(
XP2600+ (333 fsb)
PC2100 DDR - 512mb
32mb x2/x4 AGP
I'm NOT overclocking,
Could it be the AGP card, don't know if it's 1.5v or 3.3v?
Could it be memory - perfectly fine in my previous system?
Could it be a power issue - again, fine b4?
Faulty mobo or processor?
PLEASE HELP!!!!
Thanks
Craig

Hi..
Interesting... Could be many resons..
1) VGA - NOT VGA.. If it was 3.3V AGP then u cant plug it into the slot.. And even if u did, it will not initalize
2) Memory - Not likely.. But cannot be compleatly ruled out.. What sort of memory do u have.. Generic???
3)Power - Quite possible.. This new VIA and NVIDA chips eat up power.. Check out the articles written by BAS to c whether u system has enough power

4) Faulty Processor/MB - Unlikly, though cannot be ruled out
5) FAULTY COOLING - Highly probable.. Check whether u have installed the cpu cooler properly..
6) Cable Connection - Check the cable connections
Hope this information helps

Try with your second stick alone in the same DIMM slot.

Satellite Pro L300 doesn't reboot after BIOS upgrade from TOSHIBA Site

After a BIOS upgrade made under windows,my system doesn't reboot any more.F2,F8 keys are ineffective at power up time.The screen remains black and there is only some permanent accesses to the CD/DVD reader.
Can somebody explained me what has happended and how to repair if possible? Must i reflash the BIOS or something else.
Thanks a lot

In my opinion something went wrong during the update and the ROM module has not been flashed properly.
According to people here in the forum, only an Toshiba service agent can help you.
But I found an interesting thread here in the forum which might be helpful to you.

Satellite L40 (PSL48E) - Doesn't reboot after BIOS update

Hi,
My problem is that I update the BIOS and after that the machine does not restart. ( BIOS corrupt ? )
After the BIOS update (Satellite L40 PSL48E) the machine reboot and with the F2 key I open the BIOS setup.
I check the BIOS version ( 5.50 ) and exit the BIOS setup.The machine must be reboot now.....
No Way, the machine does not restart . No screen only the powerled lights-up.
Is there anything I can to fix it on my own like a BIOS reset ?
Thank you for cooperation.

This is strange because after the BIOS update you could go into the BIOS.
However, try to remove the battery and AC/DC adaptor. Wait one hour and then put the battery in and connect the AC/DC adaptor. Try it again.
If it doesnt work there is something wrong with the BIOS or hardware and should be checked by a notebook technician.

How to reboot after bios password reset

it says Reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key ?

Hi,
What version of Windows is installed on the notebook - ie XP, Vista, Windows 7 etc?
It might be worth resetting the bios defaults as follows.
Shut down the notebook. Tap away at the esc key as soon as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu, then select f10 to enter the Bios Menu. Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter. Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.

6710b keeps rebooting after bios upgrade

I flashed the bios of my 6710b notebook. Now I get the message "The bios failed to complete the update. Please ensure that you follow the correct proceedures and try again. This may require two sequential updates to complete the process." The machine continually recycles giving me the same message. I have downloaded the bios but I can never get to it on the CD or flash drive because the machine restarts before it can initialize. I tried using the Windows key + B. I also tried removing the CMOS battery. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Removing the CMOS battery will not help. That option went away about six years ago.
You can download the BIOS softpaq, extract it and put it on the usb flash drive by using a different Windows PC.

Toshiba Satellite p75-A7200 stuck on toshiba logo after bios change

My Toshiba Satellite p75-A7200 is stuck on toshiba logo after bios change.
entered bios fine changes from UEFI to CSM boot and now i cannot enter bios or boot past toshiba logo.
Ive tried F2 tapping and holding while powering up the laptop(tried every Fkey,DEL,ESC, with and without FN key)
cannot re-enter bios.
Also i tried to run the bios update cd created multiple 1.50 1.40 even 1.00, it doesnt seem to read any media.
i tried holding C, FN+C and f and just about every key on the keyboard to get something to work. i had dvd as top of boot priority for a while now so i shouldnt have to try f12 or holding C before boot but i tried . it doesnt seem to read any media
i tried windows 8 install cd, Ubuntu, centos, nothing goes past toshiba logo and no errors, i dont get the non bootable device error so its seems to not be reading the dvd. (dvd does spin and make read noises) im trying to find my usb floppy drive to try a floppy version but it acts like its not reading any media.
I also pulled the HDD and all usb devices to make the dvd the only media available and with the HDD out it spins then toshiba logo then black screen with solid white horizontal curser on top left of screen.(only happens when hdd out)
is there some type of key combination that will force a bios update or a crisis recovery mode for bios.
I also Pulled the battery for 2 solid days(battery,cmos battery, and power supply and held power button for about 10 mins while watching tx to make sure the thing was drained before the 2 day sit with no power at all.
this happened the second i changed from UEFI to CSM boot so its not a motherboard problem or anything like that because all was well before this setting change.
I already pulled the HDD and backed it up to another drive and swapped it to elimiate that.
any ideas on a secret key combo to force a bios read from dvd or usb or anythng.
or another combo that im just missing to enter bios after CSM boot.
UPDATE
to do a crisis recovery on this laptop
1 get a usb stick and format it in fat or fat32
2 download "7zip" and install it if you dont have it.
3 download bios from toshiba website.
4 run the installer for bios but dont choose and option just close it we just want to extract the files to the location normally c:\splnvxxx where xxx is the version number like 150
5 goto the installed locaion "c:\splnv150" or whatever number.
6. find file os2014273a_150 or something similar. it will be an application, it will end in version number _150, and it will also have a disc image file of the same name. but we want the app.
7. right click on it and you should have an option 7zip then extract
once extracted there is a folder now archesxxxxxx_bios_v150_win
8 copy the bios file located in archesxxxxxblahblah/X64/BIOS.fd , BIOS.fd is the bios and just copy that to a BLANK usb thumb drive that was formatted with fat or fat32.
9. put usb into your satellite and unplug the power from it.
10 holding FN + ESC key together plug the power back in and press power button.
11. release keys FN and ESC if all is right it will have the power button and led on from blink abut every 1 second while it searches for the bios. once its done it will reboot and you should be good to go.
if it keeps cycling with the power button then the bios is named wrong or something is not right with the usb. try reformatting it again and make sure that the bios file is the ONLY thing on the drive.

Ok a little research and digging into the bios exe downloaded from toshiba shows this has INSYDE BIOS witch should have a recovery process wich i prepared a usb stick with just the bios.fd on it found some post around toshiba forums with different models using win +B or Fn + F but neither of these worked for me to force bios update
anyone with this model know the key combo to force recovery

Satellite Pro A300 (PSAG9E) - After BIOS update Windows doesn't boot

Reboot went fine after BIOS upgrade and Windows XP logo appears loads for few seconds then beep and reboot - last known good or start Windows normally same effect.
Rebooting back to start again - this is a brand new laptop - using BIOS from Toshibas official download site.
Pretty annoyed as trying to figure out how to refresh or downgrade BIOS.
Have taken battery and RAM out to see if I can clear it?
Any ideas anyone?

Hi
Hmm this is very strange usually if something would went wrong during the BIOS update procedure then your notebook would not boot up.
It would be dead.
But in your case the notebook boots up but just the OS does not start properly
Maybe you should try to reinstall the OS again?
I see you are using the Win XP I think the Vista was preinstalled. Am I right?
Hmm. in my opinion you should try to boot from the Toshiba recovery disk and should try to reinstall the OS in order to check if this issue could be solved.

Satellite A100-590 PSAA9E freezes on Toshiba welcome screen after BIOS update

Hi.
Yesterday I did a BIOS update on my Satellite A100-590 PSAA9E-03Z00QGR with the appropriate flash:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_driver_details.jsp?service=EU&selCategory =2&selFamily=2&selSeries=153&selProduct=624&langua ge=17&selOS=10&selType=all&yearupload=&monthupload =&dayupload=&useDate=null&mode=userMachines&search =&action=search&macId=&country=all&selectedLanguag e=17&type=all&page=1&ID=58477&OSID=-1&driverLanguage=42
bios-20070709111839.zip
After the flashing procedure the machine rebooted automatically, but unfortunately it now keeps hanging at the Thoshiba welcome screen. Also pressing F2 or F12 won't change anything. It seems like the BIOS is corrupt.
I saw, that in the BIOS package are delivered two flash files (s10gm590.rom and s10pm590.rom). But just executing the SanAntonion10 BIOS590MP.exe a .vbs script is started that decides automatically chooses and loads a flash file. Maybe it chose the wrong one?
What shall I do now? Is there a way to restore the BIOS, or do I have to send my notebook in?
Thanks in advance
MAT

> Satellite A100-590 PSAA9E freezes on Toshiba welcome screen after BIOS update
What to say Marc. It looks like you have used a wrong BIOS version or you have updated the BIOS in wrong way.
You could try to access the BIOS and try to set the settings to default.
Dont forget to save the settings if you will exit the BIOS.
But if this procedure does not help, you will have to contact the ASP in your country.
Possibly the guys will try to flash the BIOS again with other special version.
Good luck

Satellite A300 - touch pad dead after BIOS 2.20 update

Hi,
exact model is Satellite A300 PSAGCA-06M01N running Win XP.
i had a problem with the webcam, and i read in the forum that it may be solved by a BIOS update. so i went ahead and downloaded the latest BIOS from the toshiba website specifically for my laptop model. it went completely well with no errors.
however when the computer restarted after the BIOS update my touchpad doesn't work anymore.
i went to the Device Manager and could still see the Synaptics touchpad device and it says "This device is working properly". but its totally dead and will not respond including the 2 buttons. before i updated the BIOS i had never had any problems with it.
Tried FN+F9 to no avail. plugged in a USB mouse and it works with no problems. In fact, when i plugged in the mouse the synaptics software said " Disabling the touch pad due to external pointing device" so the device driver for the touchpad is working.
if i remove the mouse it will say the touch pad is restored but it is still not working. rebooted many times and still the same problem. went into the BIOS and selected "Default" still a no go.
Can someone offer any advice or ideas please?
I really need the touch pad for the way i use the laptop...

Hi,
thank you for your reply. i already checked the BIOS setting for "Pointing Devices" and made sure its enabled. its the only setting in there that relates to the touch pad. just to make sure though i disabled it and then rebooted, after which i rebooted again and enabled it to no effect. i know this is not an isolated instance, as my search has turned up some with exactly the same problem. I'm really disappointed with Toshiba.
regards,

T400: auto reboot after poweroff

A confused problem occurs on my T400.
It automatic reboots after my t400 power off whatever I shut down by winos or I keep pressing the power button for a few seconds. I have updated BIOS to new latest version. I look up many web pages, but I couldn’t find out a way to fix it. Maybe my t400’s motherboard has damaged. Someone can tell me what problem has occurred on my t400.
moderator note: type added to subject line for clarity.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Currently i have no new ideas what it could be, but i'll check, if i can find something. another thing about the "reboot" i mentioned before: it may be the automatic reboot from windows, because i find the thinkpad t400 sometimes looks like it is shutdown, although it's rebooting, just had the experience that i wanted to reboot and just thought for a few seconds "ok, is it now shutdown or rebooting?!?", because ALL status leds were off, just as you mentioned, and then the lights turned on again and it did the wanted reboot... don't want to offend, but i think it might be confusing in realizing that it's rebooting instead of "suddenly turning on again".
Did you look into the logs of windows, if there was an error or something like that while shutting down?
I just thought about if there's a bios option for always on on after ac power loss... i recently had some trouble with an other pc, which didn't shutdown and just went on and on again, because it seemed the bios interpreted the shut down as ac power loss... just an idea.

Thinkpad T400 reboot after post (right before boot)

After update bios to 2.03 i noticed, that sometimes my thinkpad reboots after post (right after system booting). First I ignored this issue, because i thought it's caused by vista cd in drive, so i was removing it and everything seemd to be fine. But now i know that this is compleatly cd-independed. It happens in almost every second boot, and is independed on boot priority or boot media (cd, usb, hdd). I tried to downgrade bios to 1.20 and 1.23, but it still happening.
If anyone know what is going on, please let me know. I'm little stressed.
I noticed one more think. After change to "diagnostic boot" in bios, after reboot I hear beep, which is clearly longer, than when reboot not occurs.
Message Edited by lucks on 03-02-2009 02:10 AM

This is still happening... but I think I've noticed some things.
I think what the problem is, and I'm sure this'll sound retarded, is Arch is restarting "too quickly". I say this because there are some times when reboot works properly. When this happens, I notice all of the hardware shut completely down for about a second. I hear sort of a "click" indicating to me that discs have stopped and power is off, like the very last sound you hear when you completely shut down a computer. Instead of a blank screen, I can tell the monitor is completely shut off. After about a second of this, everything comes back on, the Thinkpad splash screen appears, and then goes away and I am taken to GRUB. Everything is peachy.
When the reboot fails to work properly, however, I don't get that total shutdown "feeling".. no click sound, and my screen just goes blank, but not totally off. The Thinkpad splash screen reappears sooner, but this is where I hang and eventually get the error I reported in the original post.
I hope this additional info helps, as this problem is really annoying.

Equium A300D - After BIOS update screen is blank

Hi there, I did a bios update on my Equium A300D-PSAK2E, and its bricked my laptop! When it rebooted after update screen is blank!
Is there any kind of way to launch a bios recovery by pressing certain keys on power on with the bios image on a usb stick?
Kind Regards
Dan

Try connecting an external screen to your laptop such as a monitor. When you start up usually the laptop starts and the monitor has to be selected to PC a couple of times as the monitor seems to default to AV1. Also try Fn+F5 to alternate between laptop and monitor and vice versa.
Enter the BIOS page by the following:-
Start, All programs, TOSHIBA, Utilities, HW setup, etc

Blank screen after Bios Ugrade to 3.15 on X200

Good day.
Yesterday I used the Bios-iso to updated the bios on my x200.
Following the instructions given on the page [1]. After rebooting
the system, as asked by the Bios-update, the screen remains
blank. There is no beep or any sign of life on the screen.
Is there a way to fix this? Do I have to replace the motherboard, or
is it possible to fix it "cheaper"?
thanks, Tobias

Solved!
Go to Solution.

I would probley remove the HDD and try a reboot with only one ram chip see if you get any Bios screen on reboot.
The fact this only started after you attempted to flash the bios probley means your bios is corrupted not a very easy thing to fix hence lead orgs surgestion of a bios recovery program.
It looks like there are a few others with similar bad bios upgrade experiences:
