Satellite A350-12D PSAL6E: how to boot Win 8.1 without pushing power button

Hi,
is there a way to boot the OS(WIN8.1) [system status: shut down]
without pulling the screen first up and pushing the power button?
FYI: I 'm using a external HDMI connected monitor/screen!
I know of the feature wake on keyboard via BIOS, but using that requires a laptop in hibernation/standby mode.
It kinda bugs me everytime to pull the display up and pushing
Wake on Lan is not an alteranative as its connected via W-LAN
Any ideas or hint appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
dirtyheizer

Unfortunately, there is no other method to power up the notebook, if the unit has been powered off.
You have to push the power button to power ON the notebook.

  • Issues with CD/DVD drive on Satellite A350-12D

    Hi,
    I just bought my Toshiba Satellite A350-12D laptop two weeks ago, and am generally pleased with it, however I cannot get it to read data-DVD's properly.
    When I try to read a data DVD that I burned on my desktop PC, the laptop starts to read but takes very, very, very long.
    When I try to copy the data on the DVD to my laptop, it takes forever (I've tried once for 45 minutes and then gave up) and after a while it starts claiming it can't read most of the files on the DVD.
    It's not the data on the disks that's causing problems, cause when I transfer those from my desktop to my laptop on a USB stick instead of a DVD, the files are copied immediately without a problem.
    At first I figured it might be due to the DVD disks themselves (I use TDK DVD+ROM), or maybe Vista was the culprit, but I've tried the exact same disks on my friend's Medion laptop that's also running Vista and she's having no issues whatsoever.
    Anyone have any ideas what could be causing this or better yet, what could solve it?
    Thanks in advance!

    > When I try to read a data DVD that I burned on my desktop PC, the laptop starts to read but takes very, very, very long.
    Hmm I think this could be a problem of non-fully compatible DVDs.
    My notebooks drive couldnt read or write some DVDs from different manufacturers.
    I tested many disks and now Im using TDK DVD-R.
    But its always different. Possibly your drive would not support this disk properly but another disk would be supported better
    I think you should test it simply. There are many different disk manufacturers so dont give up buddy

  • Someone changed my passcode! How do I reset my phone without a power cord or iTunes?

    Well earlier this week, my iPhone 5c was stolen. but I got it back from the school's office. I had a passcode sent on it before so i simply entered that passcode into the phone but it wouldn't let me in at all. Now i guess you can say that the person who took my phone bypassed the passcode and changed it. I was wondering how do you reset the phone without a power cord or iTunes?

    Unfortunately, you can't.  You will need to access the computer you sync with and use iTunes.  This link will provide help:

    my iphone 4 button doesn't work. How can i use my iphone without the working button?

    Well if you restore your iPad that might work. If its a software issue, it might solve it. If that doesn't work, it might be a hardware issue that apple can fix.

    I am downloading Adobe CS6 using Akamai NetSession Downloader but no pause button shows as illustrated in the Akamai Download Manager FAQ. How can I pause the download without a pause button? If I turn off my computer will the download fail?
    Thanks! Sandra
    Aaaah, Still no button but, while slowly moving the cursor around the area again, the hand lit up this time. And, though nothing showed where the cursor was, when I clicked, the download paused. And when I clicked again (over nothing) it started again. Whew!

  • Unable to disable touchpad on Satellite A350-208 (PSAL6E)

    I have an A350-208 (PSAL6E) with windows 7 Pro 64bits NL. I have an Bluetooth mouse installed, Microsoft Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000. It works very nice. But every time I am working on my laptop I seem to touch my touchpad by accident or make to much pressure on the keyboard and then my cursor is going suddenly to another place in the senctence en am I typing complete garbage. This is something that I had resolved under XP by disabling the touchpad. But now, under windows 7 there's no possebillity tot do so.
    Please can someone help me to disable the touchpad?
    Typing this little piece of text takes me so much longer while my cursor goes everytime while I am typing to another location in the words.

    > I have an problem with my built in cam, it wont work because the cable may be defect. Is it possible that this could be the problem?
    Dont think that this would affect the Flash Card installation
    I read in some forums that the cable may be lose since its connect the internal webcam with an USB controller on the motherboard.
    > the problem is that the Flash Card Utilities wont install. (see picture through link)
    In your case it looks like Flash Cards are part of the VAP.
    Dont change anything while VAP installation.
    There is an additional Flash Card utility:
    [Flash Cards Support Utility 1.58.0.2C for Vista 64bit|http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_driver_details.jsp?service=EU&selCategory =2&selFamily=2&selSeries=153&selProduct=819&selSho rtMod=null&language=13&selOS=27&selType=all&yearup load=&monthupload=&dayupload=&useDate=null&mode=al lMachines&search=&action=search&macId=&country=all &selectedLanguage=13&type=all&page=2&ID=66865&OSID =27&driverLanguage=13]
    Try to install the Flash Card utility released for Vista should work too.
    In such case you should also choose the VAP for Vista too.

  • Have to push power button to continue to boot

    Hey, while my laptop is booting, about a quarter way through i get this message: "ACPI: Using IOAPIC for interrupt routing", and booting completely stops. It continues after I push the power button. How do I fix this? This is a very recent install by the way,

    True, and it didn't help me either (though my model was among the ones featured) However, a combination of reading the gentoo wiki and scouring the ubuntu forums (where the amount of people using the same laptop as you is probably a bit closer to critical mass than here) helped me find a dsdt solution.
    Or you can just try googling dsdt and your model name...

  • How can i restart my phone if the power button is not working?

    My power button is not working and my phone freezes every now and them. I read I should restart it. Is there another way to restart it without using the power button?
    Also, I use the on-screen assistance icon but it does not have a power off option.

    That's correct.  Because how would you turn it back on again if the screen was off and your power button was on the screen?
    Yo need to fix the button, or try letting the iPhone die out completely, then connect it to power and after it's charged for a while, see what happens when you press the Home button.

  • G5 won't boot.  White LED lights when power button is pushed, click heard.

    Unlike some other non-booting G5 stories, mine never makes it past this stage. It's a dual 1.8ghz G5 powermac.
    The white LED above the power button turns on when the power button is pressed, a click is heard, but it does not go any further. The LED does not flash at all... no grey screen, no hard-drive access, nada.
    When I push the power button with the aluminum side removed (but with the transparent insert in place), I can see the fans twitch like they are going to start spinning, but then immediately stop.
    I've tried resetting the PMU, replacing the PRAM(CMOS) battery, another identical type of video card, blowing out the dust with compressed air, removing and swapping memory, but always get this same result.
    There was some renovation done in the house recently, but the machine was gently wrapped and moved away from the work. However after 2 weeks of sitting there, it now won't start.
    Any help is appreciated. If the 'clicking' of the power supply is being heard (also clicks when I plug in the power cord), does that mean the power supply is likely working? In which case, is it likely a logic board issue?
    One thing I noticed upon closer inspection, after removing the main fan, is that the higher processor seems darker than the lower one. Is there a way to remove one processor to test for hardware failure?

    Hi subculture,
    A power supply is not to difficult to replace. The lower processor must be removed. It is much easier to lay the Mac on its side. A used power supply can be found on ebay. There are 2 main power connector that connect to the logic board. Those can be tested with a DC voltage meter against a pinout chart for your particular model and can be found on google.

  • How can I get the light for the power button to go back on?

    I would like to get the power button light to work properly again. I have a p6813W desktop running Windows 7, 64 bit OS.
    The first time the machine went into sleep mode and was awoken the power button light went out and has not yet to come back on even after many shutdowns and restarts. I can't easity tell if my computer is on or off. How can I get the light to work properly again?
    Thanks.

    Mac's don't have UI scale options like Windows has.
    Either you can drop the screen resolution in Displays a wee bit and make things appear distorted, or do what I do and use the Universal Access and set a control key, then use a mouse wheel/scroll to zoom in and out where the mouse is pointed.

  • Had diagnostics check done at Apple Store. Passed Got home, pushed power button, and screen says No bootable device-- insert boot disk and press any key?

    What happened at the Apple store that caused my computer to do this.
    It passed the diagnostic check with flying colors. So I got the green light from the Genius to purchase the MacBook Pro.
    Got home.
    Pushed power.
    Screen says:
    No bootable device-- insert boot disk and press any key...
    What happened? He said it would be like a new MacBook Pro when I got home and turned it on. This isnt like that at all.
    Someone please advise me what to do? The Apple store is closed now.   :-(

    It's trying to boot from a Boot Camp volume that doesn't have a working installation of Windows. Restart and hold down the option key until you see one or more disk icons. Select the one representing your Mac OS boot volume and press return. When the boot is complete, open System Preferences > Startup Disk and set the Mac OS volume as the default boot device.

  • Satellite A350-12D - How to recover from recovery DVD?

    Hey!
    Recently i purchased a Toshiba A350 disc. I've format both the discs and went with a clean sweap install of windows vista. Now, a few months later i want to use the Toshiba Recovery Discs i made on the first startup, to recover my Toshiba laptop and set it back to the default installation.
    With the tool to create Toshiba Recovery Discs, i had to make 2 recovery discs. The first DVD contains the Windows installation, and the 2nd DVD contains SWM files.
    I started the recovery by putting recovery disc 1 in my DVD player and boot it up. After boot it installed Windows Vista, and it never asked for DVD2. After the installation, I have a clean Windows Vista, but no Toshiba pre installed drivers, software etc.
    How can I recover my laptop to the default settings, the way i bought it?
    thnx for ur awnser,
    sincerely, Frank
    null

    Hi
    Usually the Toshiba Recovery disk should contain the image.
    The image is the package which contains the Vista, Toshiba drivers/tools and the additional software.
    The Toshiba Recovery disk Creator can create the Recovery disk using the image on the notebook and therefore its not understandable for me and I cannot believe why you get only clean Vista without the Toshiba drivers and tools and 3rd party software.
    You did everything right. In order to recover the notebook, you have to boot from Recovery disk and have to follow the instruction on the screen.
    Thats all.
    PS: I the drivers and tools are really missing then you could download it from here:

  • Satellite C50-A-1FT - How to boot from the USB stick

    hi,
    this is last stop really as have run out of ideas,have asked every techie that know including taking it to an independant computer store.
    I am using a toshiba satelite C55 a-1d5, with windows eight preinstalled.
    I am trying to get Ubuntu booting off a Toshiba G3 USB stick [sixty four gb capacity],theres nothing wrong with the stick or the multiple distros on it.
    so have followed all the advice Ive found and obviously as woud usualy do-on the BIOS/UEFI screen have made sure the boot sequence has USB first,but when using the CSM boot order it wont boot the USB stick it just gets over runned by Windows 8.
    I tried to deactive from the BIOS the "secure Boot" or something like that, but it seems to be already off... and its weird because my laptop is new. just bought it 2 days ago.
    please can any kind soul take pity and offer reasons why this may be happening or even better,know how to get linux on it? thanks in advance

    Seems that you could solve this issue disabling the secure boot in BIOS as well in registry:
    HKeyLocalMachine\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\ SecureBoot\State
    (UEFISecureBootEnabled needs to be set to 0 to disable SecureBoot within the system)
    But to be honest this should not affect the USB booting in case the Windows 8 (or Win 8.1) has been completely powered OFF.
