New Satellite L500 wont start

Hi
My Xmas gift to my son shows Windows starting to load files and open, then an error message appears stating an error has occurred
Error: F3-F100-0005
please press OK to turn off the computer.
Does anyone have any clues as to how we can make it work?
Thanks
Lancius

Hi
I have no idea why this error appears but it would be recommended to reinstall the Windows and to configure the system again.
You should use the HDD recovery option!
For this power up the unit and press F8
Then new menu should appear where you should choose the option Repair my Computer.
After that choose HDD Recovery option which allows you to reinstall the Windows again.
Finish the configuration and test the notebook.
Good luck

Downloads here.
A special order or for a third-party distributor. Because the part-number family (PSKLAU) is the same, it is essentially the same as this model.

Satellite A660 wont start again until i turn to safe mode

Just purchase toshiba Satellite A660: i tell the story to compensate closely to my answer, hopefully ..
I just purchase it new, run the insallation program for first use. When its up and running just within that day i noticed that it start to hang up when i hooked external drive for some program installation (adobe lightroom).
Its still fine but when i turn it off, it wont start again until i did turn to safe mode so that i could back up some of the files and run the recovery again.
This time on 64bit. When its finish its process, it works well for just a couple of hours.
It fell faster now thou, maybe because its on 64bit? ( any recommendation whether its 32 or 64bit) specs: i5 , 4ram, 1g ddcatd graphics , win7 home premium, ..
Now, when i turn it off it never start back again windows say.. start up repair. ..
I did let it run since this morning until now still they cant find whats the problem (i'm refering the loptop) .
So any idea on whats goin ?

> It fell faster now thou, maybe because its on 64bit? ( any recommendation whether its 32 or 64bit) specs: i5 , 4ram, 1g ddcatd graphics , win7 home premium, ..
64bit Operating system is better if your notebook supports 4GB or more RAM.
Why? Because Win 32bit recognizes max 3.2GB even if more RAM is available.
This is 32bit limitation; no matter what OS it is; Linux, Win XP, Vista, Win7 etc
This is the reason why 64bit OS are so popular in the last time
Regarding the OS issue;
I recommend running a HDD recovery again... this means you should reinstall the OS usign the Toshiba recovery option;
Press F8 while powering up the notebook, Choose Repair my Computer, -> HDD recovery

Re: Satellite L500 - Keyboard starts typing Giberrish

Hi
Wondering whether someone can help. I recently purchased a Satellite L500 and the keyboard is giving problems. Every day two or three times it starts typing giberrish - i.e I type L it will type another letter and so on - and it only fixes the problem by doing a reboot.
Any idea what may cause this problem or how it can be fixed? Its a brand new machine so I am surprised by the problem?
Many Thanks
Partha

Hi Partha,
> Its a brand new machine so I am surprised by the problem?
That makes no difference. Such problems or other ones can happen always even the notebook is few days old.
Regarding your problem: Have you checked the keyboard input language? I dont know which native language you want to use but I would recommend removing all other languages.
Start > Control Panel > Regional and Language Options > Language > Details
In worst case if it would be a hardware issue, you should get a new keyboard for free from an authorized service provider due warranty.

Re: Brand new Pavilion 13 wont start

My computer wont start. What do I do? Besides reading instuctions on how to ask questions.
Also I tried using the chat but my computer was not mentioned when I typed its code which is why I tried this.
Horrible horrible service. Imagine buying a brand new computer that refuses to start up and several days later after asking for help and instuctions on what to do next...you receive guidelines on how to ask questions.
Thanks Hewlett Packard! Anything else I can do? Any suggestions on how to go out of my way for a faulty product? Would you like me to bend over now?

New Satellite L500/00U keeps configuring

I just purchased a new L500/00U, took it home, plugged it, turned it on and it has been in configuration mode with a few reboots for over an hour.
Is this normal?

Im afraid it is normal. Last week I got friends Satellite L500 and I have noticed the same.
To be honest I thought something was wrong with it but finally after almost a hour OS was installed and configured properly.

Cannot register my new Satellite L500-126

Hi,
I bought a Toshiba Satellite L500-126 on 7th of may this year, and I tried to make registration (cuz it said in the offer that you can do that between 1st of April and 30th of June 2010) but it was undoable cuz "the registration period has passed.."
What should I do?

Try to register your notebook directly on Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/generic/services_warranty_reg_map_eu/
The registration status you can check in Unit details page - http://www.toshiba-tro.de/unitdetails
For registration problems please contact Toshiba under [email protected]

Have new satellite L500 laptop that can't connect to internet via a Ethernet cable

This laptop can connect to a wireless network but when we try to connect using the Ethernet cable we get a limited connection unknown network message.
I am getting all my information second hand from a niece I bought the laptop for who has it at university. She has had tech support out from the university and they say its a configuration issue on the laptop and not problem with the cable or connection.
I have read on some websites that Norton anti virus could be an issue? But I had removed this and installed Kapersky. Any ideas?

This laptop can connect to a wireless network but when we try to connect using the Ethernet cable we get a limited connection unknown network message.
The wireless connection uses essentially everything necessary except the plumbing.
Which Satellite L500?

Re: Satellite C850D wont start-up

Hi
Yesterday my Toshiba Satellite C850D laptop with Windows 8.1 did an update when I turned it on, it took a while and once it got to 100% it said it ran into a problem and needed to restart which it did with no worry. It worked fine all day, didn't miss a beat. Then this morning when I turned it on the normal Toshiba logo popped up but then a greyish coloured screen with a flickering small line in the top left hand corner appeared and it wont load further then that screen.
Every button on the keyboard I press makes a loud beeping sound. I have pressed f2 and f12 as it tells me too under the Toshiba logo to no help. Could this be from the update? Also can someone please try and help me?
Many thanks.

I would recommend you to start the system repair function.
Power up the unit and press F12.
Now you will see different bootable devices as well as the HDD recovery.
Choose this option.
Details:
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2A03ES0000R01.htm
Then you will get new menu providing different options. Here choose: Troubleshoot and Advanced Options. In Advanced Options choose Automatic repair
Hope this fix the problem

Satellite M40 wont start

I have several problems with my Satellite M40-149.
When shutting down hangs on a blue screen.
Almost impossible to boot. After some shaking and if its my llucky day, it starts but in most of cases hangs at Toshiba logo "In touch with tomorrow" with the four symbols for hd, cd, floppy and script. I did all tests I could find, there is no virus, the hd is ok (I tried several) and after successfull
start the screen seems ok to me.
I even tried Linux on another with almost the same results, very difficult to boot.
Is there another test I could do (except the Toshiba test)?
Any suggestions about where to look are welcome!
dimlog

Hi dimlog,
This sounds a little bit strange like a hardware problem. I cant imagine that this has something to do with the software for example. If the notebook doesnt start properly and hangs on Toshiba screen (BIOS screen) something is wrong with the hardware.
Im not a technician but maybe the mainboard is the reason for this. But to make sure that is causing this the notebook should be checked from a notebook technician.
If you can repair it yourself, have also a look on eBay for second hand parts they are cheaper as new parts.
Good luck!

Installed new ram, computer wont start up

I installed 1gb of hynix ram. I tried setting it in different ways, but each time when i start up the computer it doesnt even get to the chime sound, the screen doesnt come on, my fan just runs loud and fast and nothing happens, but it starts up fine with out the ram. is there any hope of installing this ram?

Generally if your computer won't start up after you have installed new RAM, either you have purchased the wrong type of RAM, or it is a bad module.
As long as you are able to start up normally after removing the new RAM, and it is supported, it might just be a bad module. Contact Hynix to arrange for a replacement.

New Athlon64-System wont start

Hi all!
SYSTEM:
MSI K8T NEO-FIS2R K8T800 3DDR-DIMM 5PCI SATA RAID GB-LAN Audio Socket754 ATX
AMD Athlon64 3200+ 2000MHz/2.0GHz 1024kb Socket754 + cpu-cooler
TwinMOS Original TwiSTER 512Mb DDR-DIMM PC3200/DDR400 184pin 400MHz CAS2
Point Of View GeForce 4 Ti4200
Compucase CI-6A21 Super Miditower Black (Ultra Silent) 300W ATX
I just bought and put together my new amd64. When I start it up all fans starts but I get nothing showing on the screen. The MSI usb/diagnostics dongle has 0 LEDs shining, the front power lights steady. It doesnt beep or anything.
I have tried the memory in all slots, I´m 100% sure the motherboard is not grounded. my Geforce 4 works great on my old computer.
By reading this forum, there seems to be many problems with memory and PSU.
Can this be whats wrong with my system too?
Or does it show something on the screen if the memory isnt comaptible?
This is really frustrating, and I cant just buy new memory until I´m 100% sure that it is the memory who is wrong.
Anyone else had the same problem? then please tell me how you solved it

Hi
Good thats the ones.
the 3.3 at 28A should be fine
the 5v at 30A is fine
but the +12v at 15 amps is very low.
To help you understand, the CPU, HDDs, CDs, Fans, and video cards, all use the +12v line. Some PSU have two 12v lines one for CPU the other for rest of system. When it takes 11- 12 Amps for the CPU alone, 7 for a vid card, 4-7 for HDDs.
Then it can take at least 20 amps on the 12v to boot board (18 Absolute min), the more you add the more you need, 28amps plus is a good place to be.
Can you beg or borrow a bigger PSU, with say 20amps at least on the 12v. Usually over 400W, better 500- 600W.
lets know how you do
cheers
jocko
