Satellite P100-160 - System does not boot

Hi all,
i was hoping someone may be able to help me out with a problem i have with my Satellite P100-160.
I was using it the other night without power connected when my battery ran out and it shut down.
When i re-connected the power and switched it on i got the usual message asking if i wanted to re-start as normal which i did.
Upon doing this i got the icon in the bottom right corner telling me the system was looking to install a new driver for mass storage device.
It could not find it and i have not added or taken anything away from my system.
When i shut it down and went to re-start it next time i got a message on boot screen along the lines of:
error
resource conflict - pci serial bus controller on motherboard bus: 0A, device: 04, Function :01
error
resource conflict - pci mass storage controller on motherboard bus:0A, device 04, function 02
error
resource conflict - pci on motherboard bus: 0a, device: 04, function 03
press F1 to resume F2 to setup
i can get into setup but when i resume the system just hangs and all hard drive activity stops. i have managed to get it to boot successfully once but no more, cant get into safe mode or anything. when i took it to my local computer shop the guy there looked at the error and said it is broken, the motherboard has gone and there is nothing i can do with it. im quite disappointed as the laptop is only 2 years old and i would have thought it would last longer than that.
So my question s are is the guy right, is it broken or is there something that can be done with it? if it is broken can i access the contents of my hard drive with another laptop (the shop guy said something about using a hard drive caddy and using it as an external hard drive??
thanks in advance for any advice

Well it would certainly seem my laptop is a gonna, plenty of views but no solution. Must say from
browsing this forum Toshiba laptops definitely have their fair share of problems, mine suffered from
the broken cover mentioned in another thread but i did not think it was such a widespread problem. It has certainly put me off opting for a Toshiba as my replacement.

System does not boot during Hyper V installation

Hi -
I was trying to install Hyper V on my Windows 8.1 professional edition, 64 bit OS. The installation was through ISO downloaded through MSDN. During installation I had to hard boot my system through switch off. Now my system does not boot correctly and during
boot it flashes a message "The last windows installation did not complete please install the setup". Does this mean that my existing 8.1 OS has crashed ? how can i come out of this and recover my data ?
My hardware configuration is :
i7 processor, 16GB RAM, intel graphics Card, windows 8.1 professional 64 bit OS.

Hi RahuIM,
You can try to enter safe mode then copy your personal data to the data volume then reinstall the system.

System does not boot when PCIe express Card is inserted in system. Using Spartan-6 PCIe Integrated Endpoint Block 1.3

Hi,
I am using Spartan-6 PCIe Endpoint Block core v1.3 and I am using ISE 12.1. I have used the PIO example design,
modified it according to our design.
The core is configured as below:
BAR0 - 8KB, 32-bit, Memory Type
Lanes - x1
Clock - 125 MHz (system clock)
The card is a custom board. When the card is pluged into the system the system does not boots, it hangs.
I have tried debugging using chipscope and monitored trn_lnk_up_n, trn_reset_n and trn_clk. trn_lnk_up_n stays
high (deasserted), trn_reset_n stays low (asserted), trn_clk is low (No clk).
What might be the issue?
Thanks & Regards.

Thanks Gabor, for the response.
I refered couple of answer records like AR# 34873 and AR# 34894, I monitored trn_reset_n, sys_reset_n, clock_locked, PLLLKDET and RESETDONE signals as suggested in AR# 34894.
Status as follows:
SYS_RESET_N = 1 (deasserted)
TRN_RESET_N = 0 (asserted)
CLOCK_LOCKED = 0 (deasserted)
PLLLKDET = 0 (deasserted)
RESETDONE = 0 (deasserted)
which means the transceiver PLL frequency is not within the predetermined tolerance. Is this problem related to the PCIe Jitter Attenuator I am using on the board to derive 125MHz from 100MHz system Clock.
Thanks & Regards

After installation of 10.6.5 system does not boot

After I updated my system with the latest release 10.6.5, the system does not boot up at all. It shuts down every time it restarts. All I can do is go into single user mode and then I cannot repair the disk as I always get the error that "The volume Macintosh HD cannot be repaired when it is in use"
Any other suggestions?

It sounds like your friend's DVD is hardware specific to his Mac and will not work in your Mac.
Since you say a safe boot work that generally indicates that the problem is with third party software because the safe boot prevent any of that from starting.

That sounds like a failed logic board or display module on the logic board...either way you need to take it to an Apple store genius bar and have the techs test it to see exactly what has failed. The testing is free so give the techs a chance at diagnosing the problem.

Satellite A105 WIN XP does not boot or load...

Ok, so my wife's laptop has a boot issue. Model is A105-S4284
The Toshiba/Phoenix screen loads, but does not boot/load XP. It gives a black screen, then sits for a few secs and restarts. it will continue this loop indefinetely as far as I can tell. When this happened, she complained that it has been taking longer for it to boot into XP recently. (Wish she had told me before)
I can get to BIOS system utilites, Boot menu, and can access F8/Win Advanced options boot choices. I have tried the following:
Safe Mode
Safe Mode w/command prompt
Last known GCFG
Disable Auto restart on failure
I have also done a battery pull and unseated the memory, even swapping left/right, and attempted boot from just one mempry module, all with no change.
Apparently her DVD/optical drive is toast (apparently has been) so I can't do a recovery disc, but I did make a recovery USB drive. No dice there either.
What have I not done? Since I can access the adv. opt. menu it seems winXP is still there. most likely she shut it down while XP was installing something, and now there is some type of error in the registry or somewhere, but I can't seem to recall or remember what my next steps would be to gain access to I can try to clean it up and recover.
I would do a complete wipe and start from scratch, but her entire work portfolio is on the HDD and she (foolishly) has not backed it up, at least not recently. Is my best bet to get an outboard drive enclosure and set the jumpers to slave, so I can attempt to recover the data that way?
I'm a bit stubborn, and know my way around a computer, and I refuse to give up and drop it off at the geek squad.
Please help!

her entire work portfolio is on the HDD
First things first. You should rescue the files.
Remove the hard drive and place it in an enclosure accessible from a desktop via USB.

Satellite M50D-A-10W does not boot after battery is fully empty

I have a Toshiba Satellite Notebook latop Satellite M50d-A-10W AMD A, 15.6.
I have problem when the battery is fully discharged I need use the needle to peform hard reset using switch behind the laptop.... then I can get into boot mode with f2
How can I solve the problem?
thank you

I guess you are talking about the force shutdown procedure as described in this document:
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB3C03JR0000R01.htm
Such issue may appear in case the PC is freezing, not booting or has a power failure.
I think the notebook goes off in case the battery would be fully empty. In such case the system does not shut down properly.
As default state, the system does not shut down the notebook but usually the unit performs an hybrid shutdown. This procedure allows the notebook to boot much faster but this might affect system boot in case something would go wrong while shut down procedure.
You can disable this hybrid mode and in my opinion this is also recommended.
Details:
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2B03EY0002R01.htm
However, to avoid such issues its very important to perform the shut down procedure properly.

Satellite Pro A100-080 does not boot - stays dark after 3 beeps

Hello,
after one week off, the Toshiba Satellite Pro A100-080 (PSAASE-00G004GR, 4 GB RAM) of my children does not boot anymore.
When powering on the system, it *beeps 3 times* (one longer, two short beeps), then the HDisk light shortly blinks "blue" and then nothing more happens. A/C, Power and Batterie LEDs are "blue", which seem to be the OK state.
No other useful help, as the display stays dark.
We had upgraded to 4 GB MEM (Kingston) one year ago and I already tried the former used 1 GB (included when purchased) or the 2 x 1 GB replacement from December 2007, but same status with those modules. So it is not
a defect memory.
I hope it is not the mainboard, probably only the included NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600 graphics adapter?
Does anyone have an idea, what might be the issue?
Thx for a short help.

Hello
Generally speaking this kind of beep codes are hardware related or with other words hardware is malfunctioning. So I think its a hardware problem and an ASP should check your notebook to identify the reason of this.
On the Toshiba website you will find a list of ASPs:

Reset Password - System does not boot from DVD

My System: Macbook Pro - 2Ghz Intel Core Duo - OS X - 10.6.8
Hi everyone,
i forgot my password. So i want to boot from install DVD to reset the password. Unfortunately my macbook pro does not boot from DVD (10.6.3).
I press c all the time...but sometimes the macbook pro throws the DVD out...and sometimes nothing happens.
The DVD drive is working fine...
Any other idea?
Thanks in advance.
Fabian

So when you boot holding option it shows a padlock with a password field? Is that correct?
In that case we're talking about the firmware password, which you can't reset via the install disk. There is only one way to do this, I'm not certain if one is allowed to divulge that information publicly - might want to try googling "reset firmware password"

New system does not boot properly

I just set up a new system with:
a MS-6728 Neo2 FIS2R Mobo,
1gb Geil PC-3500 RAM (2x512),
2.6C proc.
2 Maxtor 120gb IDE drives RAID 0 with the onboard promise controller.
Lite-On DVD burner
ATI radeon 9800 video card
Enermax 300 watt power supply with:
3.3v - 28amp
5v - 30amp
12v 22amp
170watt total 3.3/5 combined
My problem is that my system NEVER boots up normally. It always freezes in the bios startup. The D-bracket stops at almost every possible combination of led's, which according to the manual the problems were: Testing RTC, Initialize Video interface, Testing memory, Initializing floppy controller, Memory detection, Decompressing bios to ram, possibly more. Sometimes I also just get beeping, either a continuous beep or 8 beeps. A few times it would display the bios startup screen, but halfway down would be gibberish characters and would be locked up. When I then turn the computer off then on again, the bios is reset at least somewhat(i know because I usually disable the full screen image on startup) and says memory timings are too tight, and I have the choice to enter bios or hit any key to automatically fix things. If I hit any key it will boot up ok. However when I restart/turn off the computer, the next time it again does not boot. I tried upping the ram voltages from 2.5-2.9v, and that seems to stay that way in the bios, even when it resets itself. Everything else is set to auto/slow. If I try to manually adjust the memory timings, even to the slowest possible settings, it does not boot, and I must turn it on/off a few times till the bios resets again, with the boot process stopping at one of the possiblilitys mentioned above. Using the info tab on speedfan, I got the memory info, and it displayed the voltage at 2.5v, not sure what that means but it is strange.
What I have already attempted:
I sent back the ram and got a new set, which hasn't changed anything. The first time the other ram failed memtest, this time it passed(for about 2 hrs). So I don't think its the ram.
I borrowed an antec truepower 430w powersupply, which had no effect.
I went back to bios version 1.3 from 1.9, which also seems to have no effect.
I was hoping to overclock the system a bit and enable performance mode etc etc, but now I'll be happy to just not have to go through a song and dance everytime I restart the computer. This is only the second computer I have built from scratch, and the first with raid, but that seemed to all go ok. Please help me diagnose the problem!

I too am having problems with my system.
865PE Neo2-FIS2R
2 Maxtor 120GB S-ATA drives, RAID 0, Promise
2 512MB Geil Ultra CL2-3-3-6
HP CD-RW
What IDE settings are you using?
E.g...Native? P-ATA Only...all of those settings
For me...sometimes XP will install and boot...but eventually system is unstable and XP crashes and corrupts itself...Event Manager errors different each time
Someone mentioned problems with Maxtor and AMI BIOS...anything I should keep in mind?
Sorry about all the different questions. I'm sure exactly where my problem lies. MSI thinks it may be my memory AND/OR on-board IDE controller since I can't get the on-board Intel RAID setup to consistently "see" and setup my RAID drives...even when it has worked...XP doesn't like the Intel configured RAID drives. Also tried just one S-ATA drive through on-board Intel and Promise. Next I will try a plain old IDE Hard Drive...no S-ATA...and make sure my memory passes memtest86+ testing.
Any other gems you can offer for this config??? Thanks.

Toshiba satellite c55t-A5123 . Does not boot any devices.

I have accidentally formated the pre-installed OS in my laptop. Now I try to reinstall it again with win8 installation disk but it does not boot the DVD . i tried to make a bootable USB too but same thing happened. Anyone here can help my problem?
Is there any way to solve it.. Please I really need your help . Thanks in advance :-)

Satellite C55T-A5123
Best to restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media. All the drivers and utilities are properly installed.
If you failed to create recovery media, obtain it from Toshiba. Scroll down to Get Recovery Media here
See the instructions in the section Restoring from recovery media, which begins on p. 56 of the User's Guide.

Satellite Pro L300-1FN does not boot - hangs at BIOS splash screen

My Satellite pro L300-1FN is refusing to boot up. When switched on the laptop displays the toshiba/insyde H20 BIOS splash screen and the "Press F2 go to Setup Utility, F12 go to boot menu" message and flashes the hard disk access light but does not attempt to continue loading. I have left the bios at the splash screen but it does nothing for many hours on AC or runs the battery flat while on battery.
Is there a way of re-setting the BIOS on this unit? If it were a desktop unit I would remove the CMOS battery to force a BIOS reset but this is impossible on a laptop. The hard disk is fine as I have connected it to another system to remove valuable data.

*I managed to fix this issue* ,,, thanks to some other dudes on other forums
What i did was Format a Floppy disk as MS-DOS boot using a Windows XP PC and USB floppy drive, then downloaded the latest BIOS for my L300-1BW laptop model, copied *.fd bios image to the floppy disk and renamed it to BIOS.fd.
Connect FDD to the toshiba laptop with out AC connected. Held Power button for 12 seconds, connected AC adapter, then held Fn+F, powered on , and kept the Fn+F keys held down for about 10 seconds into the reading of the floppy drive just to be sure, then let go. The screen was black throughout the process. I left this for a few minutes, or until it had finished, the laptop rebooted itself, and voila, it now goes passed the TOSHIBA POST logo screen :)
I hope this helps others with Toshiba Laptops. should work for any Toshiba laptop.

Single-User Mode Copying Files/System Does not Boot Past Apple Logo Screen

I have a Macbook 2.0GHZ, 2GB RAM, that recently tried to download a secuirty and keynot update. Following the download the system will no longer boot past the Apple Logo Screen with the spinning wheel. I do not have access to a OS disk yet or to a firewire cable either. I've have seen posts from others that describe how to use traget disk mode to reinstall the secuirty update manually and then they can boot their computer. Safe mode will not work. I did boot into single-user mode and run the disk utility there and it says my HD is OK. Since I do not have a firewire or an OS Disk, I am wondering if there is a way to copy those files i need to a USB pen stick then install them onto the computer via single-user mode, considering this is the only way I can boot and manipulate the machine at this time. If this is not possible please let me know so I can find a way to scrounge up a firewire cable or disk. Thank you in advance for any assistance.
Ted K

Thanks to Limnos and BDAqua I know you guys have helped others with these kind of problems from the other posts I read. I just want to list what I did exactly in case anyone wants to try to do this with a usb drive or does not have access to a boot disk or firewire cable.
1: Install security update on a pen drive
2: Boot in single user mode, CMD-S on startup
3: /sbin/mount -uw /
4: mkdir /Volumes/usb (usb can be any name, name of usb drive or anything you want)
5: ls /dev (you need to get the drive listing for the usb drive to mount it appropriately, it should be disk#s# but this is close to what the HD and Cd drives are listed as so you may need to list once before you put the usb stick in and once ater. I had issues inserting the usb drive in single-user mode and it would freeze up the root drive)
6: /sbin/mount_msdos /dev/disk1s1 /Volumes/usb (this mounts the usb drive, i had to use msdos because of how my usb drive was formatted, you may need to check your usb drive format, hfs is the apple format for usb drives but it did not work for me)
7: cp /Volumes/usb/SecUpd2009-001Intel.dmg (this copies the files from the usb drive to the root drivel, at this point you no longer need the usb drive)
8: hdiutil mount /SecUpd2009-001Intel.dmg (this mounts the disk image)
9: cd /Volumes/"Security Update 2009-001" (after i mounted the image this is how it appeared in the Volumes directory, you might need to do ls /Volumes to get the name, the quotes are important to get the whole file directory changed)
10: installer -pkg SecUpd2009-001Intel.pkg -target / (this installs the acutal update, i used the SecUpd2009-001Intel.pkg and it worked though I think you might be able to use "Security Update 2009-001" with quotes as well.)
11: reboot
i hope this helps anyone looking to do this. Thanks again to those who helpes and all the other posts that had information that helped me identify and then fix my issue! I still love my mac.

Satellite Pro 6100 system will not boot

Hi people,
I have the following problem. I used my laptop long enough for thet battery to run out and the device to go into hibernation. Having charges the battery againm, I tried the system and now it wont start.
The leds light up fine, and stay lighted up. Just nothing happens, the FN key works. After a minute the fan will start spinning up and spins down again. But nothing else.
After some time, pressing the power button for a few seconds seems to start the device, but it shuts down imediately after about 30 seconds. Even when doing trying to do a memtest.
does anyboy have any idea what could cause this. I tried removing the harddrive and booting it doesnt seem to affect anything, as does moving the RAM module to the other slot. Also removing the CD/RW drive doesnt affect it. Removing the battery and booting gives the same result also.

My appologies for the lack of information,
When I try to start the system (hooked up to AC, with or without battery installed), the first 3 leds and the 5th led light up. Nothing else happens. The screen stays black, the fans are not spining as far as I can hear. This behaviour is consistent als in the following cases:
hooked to AC + battery
hooked to AC + without battery
only battery
Though letting it stand for a while with nothing happening, and then pressing the power button for a second or two, the bootsplash comes up. And the system starts booting, but whatever I do it always shuts down after roughly half a minute. Not shutting down as in shuttingdown windows but in the sence cutting power at once. No matter what I do, letting it idle in the bootmanager, running memtest, or booting the os. It will always shutdown after roughly half a minute.
I tried removing all non-essential hardware, like the cd-rom driver extra ram etc. This does not make a diffrence.
My own best suggestion as to where the problem lies is at the powerboard, the powerboard of this laptop was replaced within warrenty by toshiba 2 or so years ago

Can´t enter bios setup/system does not boot

Hi,
I got a problem with my new KT6 Delta MS-6590 board.
Sometimes after a prog is crashed and its better to restart windows, my System doesn´t boot anymore. It hangs after searching RAID-Disks. The Broadcom Dialog does not appear and the System stands. When I try to reset and would like to get into the bios setup I can´t enter it. The Delete Key do not work. After clearing cmos and going on with default values the systems works correctly until the next crash.
The bracket says "Boot attempt"
Whats the problem please help ?(
