Satellite C55-A-19D - How to enter BIOS settings?

Hello,
I have recently bought a *Satellite C55-A-19D* notebook with no OS preinstalled, so I have installed Windows 8.1.
My problem is that *I can not access to the BIOS menu*.
I turn the computer on, but I can not see any invitation to "press the F2 key to enter setup". I am only receiving a screen that just has the +Toshiba Leading Innovation >>>+ notice, and then the Windows 8 spinning dots...
I can tap or hold F2/F12/ESC/DEL but nothing is coming up. I have also tried to press Fn+F2 combination.
What should I to get into the BIOS setup?
Thanks in advance!

Perform complete shutdown as described here - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2B03EY0002R01.htm
After doing this start your notebook again and press F12. There you should have option to enter BIOS settings.
Check it out.

    Hi
    To enter BIOS settings please press ESC button at start up. After that press F1.
    By the way: when you start notebook for a short moment you can see the message how to enter BIOS settings. It is displayer at the bottom left side at start up.
    Del button will be used on desktops, not on laptops.

  • How to enter BIOS settings on Equium L10?

    Please can someone tell me what button i press too get into the bios setup at the start when i switch my pc on cos i have tried every thing, but nothing works.

    Hello
    Every time when you switch the notebook ON you can see at the bottom left hand site the short instruction how to enter BIOS settings. In your case you must use F2 button. Please keep it down immediately after switching the notebook ON.
    Generally the Toshiba notebooks are delivered with two different BIOS versions (BIOS producer):
    - TOSHIBA BIOS: enter using ESC and F1 button
    - Phoenix BIOS: enter using F2 button.
    According the specification your unit has Phoenix BIOS.

  • How to enter BIOS settings on my Satellite 5205-S503?

    Ok I have a Satellite 5205t -S503. I want to boot using CD so it can install my WXP disc but it will not let me boot from the CD and I cant get to the BIOS.
    I tried the ESC F1 and it just says: set value (Y/N)
    When I type Y it just restarts and goes right back to the Toshiba screen.
    When I type N it says: NTLDR is missing press key to restart.
    When I also try the ESC with the power button it does the same thing.
    How can I get to the bios /and or boot from CD ?

    Hi
    As Im not mistaken the Satellite 52xx series was equipped with the Toshiba BIOS and the ESC button should works to access the BIOS default settings.
    Anyway, there is also another possibility to boot from the CD drive.
    You can press the F12 button immediately after notebook starting and then a boot menu should appear. Then you could choose the ODD as a booting source.
    But back to the error message NTLDR is missing press key to restart
    It looks like an HDD malfunction
    I have searched a little bit in the forum and found these useful threads:

    It should be in the Users Manual somewhere.
    Turn on the laptop, and hold down the ESC key. Then press F1 when it prompts you.

  • How to enter BIOS mode on Satellite 5200?

    Hello!
    I own a Satellite 5200-801 and Ive recently bought a new CD/DVD - rom cause the original just died. The thing is that the drive I bought is from US market and my laptop is European. So Ive double checked all the serial numbers on it and everything was correct except the manufacture serial number that I suppose makes no difference to be different.
    My problem is that when I install it the light indicator flashes normal but when it boots it shoes IDE error boot and windows doesnt see it at all. Do u know how can I enter BIOS setting to change master/slave cause I believe that there is a difference among them at this point....the original is master and the second is csel.
    Also is there a key to enter BIOS because I cant enter at all no matter key combinations. Finally if I change the reading head of the DVD/ROM and put back the original would make the change I need?
    THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!!

    As far as I know you cannot change anything in BIOS but check it again. To enter BIOS settings press ESC button at start up.
    Good luck!

    Hi.
    Have you read the User Manual? I think it will be somewhere in the book. However, for this gen, you can access BIOS by F2 and boot up list with F12
    Enjoy.

    I have tried to update the BIOS for this motherboard and since doing this it is not possible to change the sata controller mode from RAID to anything ese - it will not save the settings.
    I have replaced the CMOS battery and changed the CMOS jumper but nothing has worked. Can anyone provide the original BIOS file so I can try and re-flash it?
    Or does anyone have any other suggestion?
    Many thanks

    Hello @assail_hawk
    To get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial product. You can do this at Commercial Forums.
    Even though this is a Commercial product, I recommend to restore the BIOS defaults with this document selecting the reloading the BIOS default settings. This will restore the original BIOS.

  • Satellite C55-A-1N1 - How to repair Windows 8.1 after trying Linux?

    Hi,
    Laptop: Satellite C55-A-1N1
    In my infinite wisdom I tried to install Linux in a dual boot scenario like my old laptop. I shrunk the main windows partition in windows 8.1 first and then installed linux to that partition. After rebooting, Linux worked but not windows since I had to disable secure boot and set bios to CSM for linux to load.
    After putting secure boot back to on and bios to EFI, windows no longer boots. I tried to repair the windows operating system by running the repair tools from another Win8.1 DVD but they didn't repair the booting. I subsequently learned that holding zero at boot brings you to the hidden recovery partition.........except my doesn't!
    So, I have checked the windows and recovery partitions are intact but I cannot get to the recovery partition or repair the windows installation with windows 8.1 repair tools. No, I don't have any backups, other images or system restore options. Clever, aren't I? I only have the original recovery partition (which I can't access) and windows partition to play with. I don't want to lose my OEM Windows 8.1 license...
    Any ideas how to salvage this windows installation?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    You have made the same mistake as many other people. On this forum we have discussed so many times how it works and tried to explain how all this works.
    In users manuals is clearly described that every notebook owner should create recovery media (DVD or USB) and this created recovery media can be used for recovery image installation in case that HDD recovery option doesn't work or in case that HDD is defective and must be replaced.
    As I can see you don't have this recovery media. Fact is that HDD recovery installation can be started if notebook has factory settings only. After your Linux experiment this option is gone and there is no way to start it again.
    What you can do now? I know it sounds stupid now but if you want to install original recovery image you need to order new recovery media and it can be done on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx
