Satellite L350D-200 doesn't start - blank screen

Just like similar cases:
Switch on, hear the HD spinning, nothing else, screen stays blank, no BIOS
Checked with external monitor
Removed battery AC for > 1 hour, doesn't help.
No SW/HW updates I'm aware off (other then the automatic updates)
Looks like a HW failure -> ASP?

Hi!
> Looks like a HW failure -> ASP?
Yes, it seems so! :(
Im not a notebook technician but you have all done what you can do: Removing battery for one hour and checked with an external monitor.
For me it sounds like a hardware malfunction
The Satellite L350 is a new notebook and I assume your notebook is still under warranty. So the repair should be for free.
I think its the best way because the notebook technician can check every hardware part of the notebook to determine what is causing this issue.
Bye

MacBook Pro, randomly Windows 7 doesn't start and screen goes blank

Hi, I installed Windows 7 (Ultimate 64-bit) using the BootCamp on my MacBook Pro (MBP) i7, mid 2010. Installation was successful without any issues. This is my first Mac and, for now, I primarily use Windows on my MBP. The problem: After selecting Windows OS, randomly, Windows doesn't start and the screen goes blank. When this happens, most of the time I have to press the power button twice and press the Option key again to restart in Windows. Sometimes I have to hold down power button for several seconds to turn off MBP, then power it back on to start over. Windows 7 seems to restart on second try every time.
I can tell when the screen will go blank and Windows will not start, when the blinking cursor does not appear on upper left corner of the screen. Also, I enabled Windows OS Boot Log and nothing displays when this happens.
I took in my MBP, twice, to local Apple store Genius Bar and I was told that it was a Windows problem and I must purchase AppleCare Protection Plan to get help resolving the blank screen. It was explained to me that AppleCare had Windows experts who can help with resolving the issue. Therefore I purchased the AppleCare Protection Plan and spoke to AppleCare directly and still no resolution.
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

There is a forum specifically for Boot Camp, this is a general MBP forum and most of us don't use Boot Camp or Windows. The link to that forum is:
http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=237
Apple does support Boot Camp however if your problem is with Windows Apple does not support a Microsoft product. You would need to contact Microsoft for help.

Thanks for your advice, but the problem is very complicate, the computer doesn't boot up, only the led te HD is ligthing, I removed the HD and the memory but doesn't work, I've read that the problem could be the bios, and the recomendation is remove the battery of the board to reset the bios, but I think it is very dangerous.

Satellite M35X-S349 doesn't start up

My laptop satellite M35X doesn't start up. I press the power button. Then the hard disk green light binks once. The fan or hard disk makes a sound for a couple second. Nothing is displayed in the screen.
Nothing happens after that. I've tried to boot from a CD, but the hot keys doesn't work (press power button, then "C").

Hi Sergio,
From your description of the problem I would suggest that you have a hardware problem on your notebook. The initial POST is failing when it checks your peripheral devices and this is preventing the BIOS from loading correctly. I would suggest you try to remove/reinstall the RAM modules, the Hdd and The Optical Drive. If the fault still persists then you will need to refer to a Toshiba authorised Service Partner for further diagnostics.

After BIOS update Satellite L350-172 doesn't start anymore

Satellite L350-172 Bios-Update from bios-20090203164614 to bios-201002250
I just updatet the BIOS of my notebook from 1.60 to 2,20. Now the Notebook doesn't start any longer.
"It was stopped for reason not to damage the Computer" - blue schreen.
How can I downgrade the bios again? Or - what have I to change in the bios-settings?

Hi schuwe,
Im a little bit confused about your posting. How do you tell your BIOS not to restart?
Anyway, after BIOS update you should load the default settings in BIOS.
Did you choose the right BIOS especially for your model?

IPhone won't start - blank screen

unable to power-up iPhone... blank screen!

Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again?
Does it still charge if you use the adapter? If yes, let it charge for 10min, then connect in recovery mode, if resetting did not work. Recovery mode is explained in this article: iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to restore

MBP 2,16ghz: Doesnt start (Blank screen)

Hi! i've a MBP 2.16ghz core2duo.
My problem is that if i shut it down and then start it again it wont boot.
It will spin up the harddriva and the fans. But it only shows a blank(black) screen.
I've tried the SMC reset and PRAM reset but it doesnt help.
I think it could be a sensor problem or so, because if i let it "cool down" for a while it will start and then i can restart it directly after until it gets warm.
But if i get it to start then i can work in MacOSX for hours and hours without any problem until i restart it, then it wont boot.
And then the same if i let it cool down for a while it will start.
I've checked the temps with "Temperature monitor" and none of them seems very hot.
(theese are idle temps)
Cpu A diode: 46c
CPU Core 1: 44c
CPU core 2: 47c
GFX Processor chip: 42c
GFX heatsink: 44c
Main heatsink1:43c
Main heatsink2: 36c
Memory controller: 46c
Memory sensor: 54c
Smart disk: 35c
I've tried diffrent rams and diffrent slots etc but no change.
Hope anybody can help!

I took the non optical drive MBP into Genius Bar at Apple Bridgewater, NJ. The guy was very well trained in how to make a logic board crash seem normal. It was applaudable. Seriously. Really good service. "Mind if I plug this into our system?", "Hmm, Let me try this drive" "Well, it did get on our system, let me run this diagnostic". "Look, your hard drive is there, that's a good sign".
Me "Yes, but what is that red check mark next to power + - 5 volts?"
Him, "Yes, do mind if I take this in the back and look inside?"
Me, "Sure".
On his return," So the inside looks very clean, no problems there but this looks like it might be something that we would like to send to our repair facility in Tennessee. You see, if we put in one part and it doesn't fix it, we'd have to wait for another one. So we like to send these to a place that has all of the parts"
I got it back in 4 days. New logic board, new SSD. Ah, the joys.
Thanks for the responses, especially the SMC info and the PRAM reminder.

Tecra 8200 wont start (blank screen)

Hi.
A friend of mine has asked me to help her with Tecra 8200 her notebook with WinXP/SP1 installed was sluggish. Being a gentleman, Ive accepted a call, and reinstalled WinXP Pro (originally, this model was shipped with Win98SE). Installation went right, but Ive noticed error entries in System Log regarding BIOS ACPI compliance (once, each time upon machine startup). I continued, installed SP1, successfully, but the ACPI problem remained. Everything else was fine (all HW detected, and appropriate (Microsoft/default) drivers installed). I was thinking of checking for a new BIOS release on Toshibas site, but I left BIOS update procedure for some other occasion.
Then, being intrigued with a problem, I have "cleverly" decided to actually test ACPI, so I put notebook in standby. And, that was it: now, machine doesnt want to start! The screen is blank, HDD is not spinning up, CPU fan is silent Power button is operational, but all I get is Power LED lit up Frustrating! I have tried to revive the machine with standard emergency procedure (switching off, and then back on, taking out battery pack, pressing various key combinations to enter BIOS setup) but accomplished NOTHING.
Searching posted notes on this forum, I have come only to one conclusion: "hardware malfunction take your notebook to ASP".
Is there anything else I could try?
Thnks, in advance.

Hi Igor
All you tried was right but if there is no possibility to enter BIOS something is obviously faulty.
Sorry but it can really be some hardware problem.

Macbook doesn't start no screen

I have a 2007 black macbook that will not boot.
Symptoms: when i hit the power button, screen flashes then goes black. Light on front illuminates - solid white. I can hear the fans inside but not much more. The computer remains in this state - no change at all. I hear no beeps at all when I start.
This is what I tried:
1. I performed a number of tests to reset the firmware - held button for 10 secs, removed battery and lugged I power to reset etc
2. I removed all memory to see if anything different happens - nothing
3. I removed the hard drive - nothing again
4. I attempted to try to reboot from the CD/DVD drive - drive doesn't accept my disc at all.
Not sure what the next possible troubleshooting steps I can take.
Any tips/suggestions much appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks for the suggestion. Nothing on the screen with a flashlight. The computer is not booting up - I can't even insert a boot disk to try that. Not sure if the firmware, or whatever drives it has started up.

1 month Toshiba satellite A505 s6033 freezing randomly and blank screen on startup

Hi,
My Toshiba satellite A505 s6033 start freezing last night when I was surfing the internet. After pressing 5 seconds or more the power button the computer turned off. After that I start it back on but all the lights on body worked except the display.
After few more attempts I pushed arrow down and the power button the display turned on, but the freezing problem is back. So I thought that is a windows problem and I used the recovery partition to restore the state out of the box state. But the display is randomly blank when I push the start button except the other lights, and after restoring the laptop still freezing randomly in or during the windows is loading.
When I turn it on in safe mode, it works perfectly fine. When I turn it on normally, it freezes almost right away.
I bought this computer from bestbuy, but I am an Romanian citizen (sorry for my English), my question is : I can use the International Limited Warranty in my country ? Or what should I do to fix my laptop.
Kind regard,
Valentin

First, sorry because of my English, it is not my language and it's been a while since I had to used it.
This is happening to me, when I bought the laptop I had a few times that it froze but I thought it was something I did, and it happened once or twice in 3 months, for 9 months, maybe 4 times in the last month, it began to increase.
Then I thought it could be the temperature, and after a while, 2 months, I didn't had time, I bought a external cooler, but it didn't work... By this time my warranty expired... And thinking it could be dirt, I opened the back, but just by removing it I saw it was clean and put it back, I did nothing but opening... And again started looking for what it could be... Yes, I tried looking here, but I didn't find this topic that time, and now that I don't have the warranty I found it...
Any one here could help me? What should I do? Is there any way to fix it without buying a new video card?
I live in Brazil so its difficult for me to buy parts, I bought the laptop in the states when there, here the hardware are expensive... But if I have, I'll buy... If I have to buy a new one, could you tell me if there is a new one that I can buy that has little difference in price for the one I have and it's better?
PS: Toshiba from Brazil didn't helped me, I just spoke with then...
I thank you for any help!!

Satellite L305D-S5934 does not boot - blank screen

I have a problem with a 2 year old satellite l305d-s5934.
On switching on, the power light comes on but the hard drive light does not and the screen stays blank.
I have tried removing the battery and restarting without it after pressing power button, but nothing changes.
Any advice on fixing the problem would be welcome.
Thanks

Hi
Remove battery, disconnect the AC adaptor and leave the notebook disconnected for a longer period of time. After that connect both parts can try to power up the unit once again
If this does not help, check the RAM. Remove the single module and test both slots using each module.
Of course it could be possible that both modules are faulty and this procedure would not help you.
In worst case the motherboard might be affected in such case only mobo replacement would be helpful.

My Satellite Pro C650 doesn't start or charge

Hi,
can someone please help me?!
I just purchased my Toshiba Satellite Pro C650.
Charged it for 16 hours, set it up and after restarting it went off and now it doesn't turn on of charge at all.

Hi
Remove the batter and disconnect the AC adaptor.
Then wait some hours and connected both parts to the notebook again.
Then try to power up the unit.
If this will not help you, then I would recommend asking a notebook technician for an check. If there is no sign of life, then a serious hardware problem might be possible.

Satellite A500 - Windows doesn't start, how to recover now?

Hello guys,
Recently , a week ago, i bought a new Satellite A500- 1HK. I installed everything and after i installed Office 2007, after the restart my PC stack on Windows 7 Logo. Pls notice that at this time a had an external HDD connected. That was my first mistake.
My second mistake was that after 5 minutes of inactivity i powered off my PC (not shutdown) and that was it. My PC totally crashed.
My third mistake was that i did not make recovery disks from the beginning and unfortunately i dont have recovery CDS. The recovery program its on a separate partition of my laptop.I tried to solve the problem as follows: I boot the PC, pressing F8 and i went to the repair menu. At the first time after the repair nothing was happened. after this i tried to proceed to the recovery option. i choose the US language and pressed enter. Nothing was happened. the screen shows an error saying: You must log in to access sytem recovery Options. If you are having trouble logging in , please contact your computer administrator for assistance. Click ok to restart the computer.
The only thing i imagine is that the recovery partition also crashed. What can i do now? I alrweady ordered the Recovery CD's from Toshiba and expecting them during the 2 next weeks.
What is your opinion . What happened? I hope that the rexcovery programm will work with CD'S and i will face no problem any more.
Thank you.
Leonardos

Hi buddy,
> I alrweady ordered the Recovery CD's from Toshiba
So in my opinion your question is already answered. Jus wait for the Toshiba recovery disk to restore factory settings.
If HDD recovery doesnt work, your only option is Toshiba recovery disk and now its time to wait for it. Im sure you will get the disk as fast as possible.
Good luck! :)
