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

  • Satellite Pro T130-14M - Will not boot up

    I have the above laptop which does not include a DVD drive. Had recently updated Itunes and synch an Iphone. When I next switched on the machine started to boot as normal but ended up with a blank black screen on which the mouse pointer was visible and moving when in use. Not able to boot in safe mode to roll back to prior to update.
    If boot up but press f11 get the win 7 background screen but no icons or access to any programmes. Thankfully have data backed up (other than recent itunes additions)
    Can anyone recommend what to do next - have had laptop since April 2010.

    Hey,
    To be honest I dont think there is much what you can do if you cant boot in safe mode and even system rollback doesnt work too
    So I think you have to reinstall Windows. That means you can use the HDDrecovery feature from Toshiba to do this. It will only delete the first partition but its good that you have done a backup because it should always be done.
    Regarding the HDD recovery you should follow the instructions here:

  • I have a MacBook Pro 15" and my warranty just ran out! I partitioned my harddrive into two partitions, one with Snow Leopard and the other with microsoft.This morning I turned on my Macbook Pro and it will not boot into Snow Leopard.

    Good Morning,
    I have a MacBook Pro 15" and my warranty just ran out! I partitioned my harddrive into two partitions, one with Snow Leopard and the other with microsoft.This morning I turned on my Macbook Pro and it will not boot into Snow Leopard. I shut it off took out the battery, reinstalled the battery. Then I put in the Snow Leopard CD and booted up to disk utility and The Snow Leopard partion would not show up?? I do see the microsoft partion.
    I also rebooted holding down the shift key and still no Snow Leopard
    Could you please tell me what I can do, what keys do I press on restart any advice to get Snow leopard back.
    thank you.

    Have you restarted holding down the Opt key?  That procedure should give you a gray screen with all of the partitions that exist.  Then select the SL partition for boot.  Also go to System Preferences and Startup Disk, unlock the lock and select the SL partition as the default boot partition, then relock.

  • Windows 8 and Canvio Desk 3TB: System will not boot when external hdd is connected

    http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Operating-Systems-e-g/HP-PAVILION-A6109N-amp-windows-8-System-w...
    Hi,
    just recently upgraded to Win Pro on my HP PAVILION A6109N.  I also bought a toshiba canvio desk 3TB.  What I notice is that if I reboot my pc with the extermnal HDD connected, my system will not boot.
    I have check my BIOS boot settings and the order of the boot.
    I have tried disabling USB Legacy Support in the BIOS
    I have reformatted the external HDD
    but still my desktop will not boot if the external HDD is connected....If I disconnect the external HDD...the system will boot up ....
    I am at a loss....*** scratching my head ***

    Update:  The only solution for me was to format the drive as ext3 and plug it into one of my Asus RT-N66U USB ports, as most routers don’t yet recognize 3TB drives as NTFS.  It’s not much help to people who don’t have a router with this capability, and it also slows transfer rates to ~12MB/s.
    Given the short length of the cable, your only other options are to have the 3TB Canvio sitting right next to you so you can unplug from a front USB port before each boot, or place it towards the rear of your desk and crawl under the desk to disconnect it from your PC prior to each boot. 
    It's a pity because Toshiba produce great internal HDD's, but my experience when it comes to external drives is they're simply junk.  I wish I had read the reviews before purchasing.

  • Operating reference system will not boot.

    hi! bought the iphone 4s in Italy and it does not work. Operating reference system will not boot. Change of firmware and restore did not help. How can I change it while in Russia. Can I send in the mail store??

    Hi NcBunky,
    Are you using Win 7 64 bit? Did you update the Texas Instruments (TI) USB 3.0 XHCI Host Controller?
    I have an H8 1380t PC. Updated the TI USB 3.0 driver and had the same problem.
    When booting the PC with the USB 3.0 external drive connected to the PC the PC would not boot. When booting the PC with only the mouse, keyboard, and a USB 2.0 external drive attached the PC would boot. Once booted you could attach the USB 3.0 drive and it worked fine.
    Solution was to roll back (reinstall) the TI USB 3.0 XHCI Host Controller to the original factory installed driver.
    System now boots with the external USB 3.0 drive attached.

  • System will not boot with Seagate 3Tb expansion drive plugged in.

    I have a  HP Pavilion HPE h8- 1214 Desktop ,  I recieved a Seagate 3TB expasion drive as a gift but when plugged in, the system will not boot. It turns on but thats it.  It never gets to the boot sequence. I have it plugged into the top 3.0 usb slot and have tried all of the other slots as well with no sucess. But if I leave it unplugged the system boots right up. I can then plug it in and it works fine. I have plugged it into my wifes HP All- In- One and it boots fine and works.  I have a WD 2TB drive that works fine as well on my system . I have searched Segates support for hours and all they say is to change the boot sequence. Have tried that, no go.  What they dont get is no matter what I do if that drive is plugged in it never gets as far as booting and reading the boot sequence. Please help. Thank you!

  • The system will not boot

    Hello, I am trying to install windovws after the restart can not install Yosemite because can`t please format the hard disk.Please help because just yesterday bought macbooc

    FYI...the top partition is too full. You need free space. You will need to remove the bottom partition then make the top partition larger. Make sure you have 10% or more free space. If you use Parallels or VMware you don't have to partition your drive. If you use the vm software you can run Windows wihtout having to reboot into bootcamp each time you want to use it.
    See this link for help after you resize your top partition.
    https://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
    I forgot to ask...
    If the system will not boot, how are you seeing Disk Utility. Are you booted from the Recovery Drive? If yes, then you will need to erase the internal drive and reinstall Yosemite on the internal. When you erase, make it one partition. You can add a second partition later that's smaller.
    Note: you posted in the OS X 7 Lion instead of the Yosemite forum. In the future, asking on the correct forum gets the best answers.

  • System will not boot up

    MB: KT6 Delta-LSR
    CPU: XP2500 Barton
    GFX: Asus V9520 Magic/T 128mb
    RAM: 1028 pc3200 ddr400 (2x512) Geil Branded
    HDD: Maxtor 40GB 2mb Buffer
    Put it all together formatted the HDD, installed windows, network was working perfectly. (on ASUS via600 board)
    Next day turn it on and nothing, zilch not even a flashing cursor top left of screen, dont even boot to DOS. screen is completely blank.
    Tested CPU, GFX, RAM and PSU in another base unit and they work fine, yet put them all together and nothing.
    1st I thought it was the mainboard so I sent the ASUS board back and ordered the KT6 Delta nice looking board. But still exactly the same problem.
    Lights on case are lit all fans are turning ect yet still the system will not boot up i dont even get a flashing cursor top right of my screen.
    There is no light with this mainboard for some reason.
    All components work when fitted to another mainboard in a different case.
    NB: one thing I have noticed is that there are two power sockets on this board,
    1. The usual 20 pin socket (which I am connected to)
    2. A 4 pin socket near to the CPU (whilst my PSU has a plug that will fit this sockect also, I am unsure as to connect instead of/as well as or leave unplugged.

    Like I have stated before, it is the compatibility issue related towards your chip fsb and your memory fsb. I know that not everyone has money to go buy another stick of memory, I don't. But maybe you could exchange from the place you bought and say that it was a mistake? The cheapest route without getting the fsb chip to match the fsb of the memory stick is to get PC2700 memory. Have you tried going for this yet? I'm sure that your motherboard may not be shot, my board didn't get shot after trying to the two different fsb. You have to understand, motherboards are picky when it comes to running the hardware. If there is a conflict, it won't run right, I could run at a lower fsb and get it to work fine, but it wasn't at it's full potential, and I wasn't going to waste my time trying to find the fsb that would work correctly. So, I just let my friend have the stick back. This is why I'm asking you to try a lower speed stick of memory, because I have experienced this. But so far you haven't even seemed to notice my replies, could you take a quick overview of what I have said? Sorry if I come off as rude, just I am taking the time to write these replies and really am trying to help from my knowledge base. I have experienced this type of problem of what you are talking about personally.
    Ok, so maybe I might not know it all, seeing that other people replying here have the same mb spec and chip fsb and memory like your trying to run, they might know more when it comes to that area for sure, just I didn't have luck trying to run a faster stick of memory compared to my chip, even though my board could run it, I couldn't get it to work, at all. I would just get a black screen, I thought I shot my GPU. Then I reset CMOS and the bios would flash, then when it would start pulling from harddrive, boom, black screen again. I had my friend tinker with my volt. to the right volts of the memory stick, still couldn't get nothing. This is why I am a little skeptical about you being able to run it at all in the long run. Hopefully you can find a way, maybe it is your manufacturer of your stick, but my conclusion is, if it isn't going to work with one, or two of same speed, try lowering it. Like I said, I tried it on this setup right now, and I didn't have to replace the chip or mobo, or gpu, so those should be fine.

    there was a recent software update that seemed to screw HDV up.  Do some searching here over the last month or 2 and you'll find a bunch of posts and some possible solutions.
    Worst case scenario, do as Shane suggests.  But might I suggest you take a look at the user tips section of the forum.  there are some great tips on how to prevent these sorts of problems by cloning your startup drive, etc.

  • Tried to update Mac book pro to maverick now system will not boot

    I downloaded the maverick update but something happened during the update and now my Mac book pro will not boot into the os.  What should I do?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Satellite Pro 6100: Fn keys not working

    Hello,
    Ive got a Satellite Pro 6100 notebook. Im having trouble using the secondary function keys (im not sure what they're called!). When I press the function (Fn) button, the light below the F10 button come on as it should, but when i press any of the F buttons i.e brightness up/down, nothing works!
    I had a quick look at some of the keyboard help and troubleshooter in control panel which suggested the driver may be incorrect so i tried looking for an updated driver, but windows said i have the latest driver.
    Does anybody else have this problem with the SP6100? Can it be fixed? If so how?!
    Any help would be great.
    Thanks - Kavi.

    Hi
    Even the Windows said you use the latest drivers, you should reinstall the drivers.
    Firstly remove the Hotkey Utility Emulator for Display Devices from Add & remove programs.
    The reinstall the common modules and Hotkey Utility Emulator for Display Devices.
    Hope it helps pleas let us known if it will work or not

  • Reset CMOS, system will not boot

    This is a long story but I will try to keep it short:
    I just bought a new 875P Neo-FISR and a 3.0 GHz Prescott, which from reading the other posts could have been a mistake. I installed the CPU, memory, and the video card and pressed the power button and received a "CMOS Data Wrong" error. So I tried to correct the problem but when I saved and exited then the system would not boot back up. So, I reset the CMOS via the jumper and tried again. After MANY attempts I change just the month in the date setting. And what do you know...it would not boot back up. The D-Bracket LEDs were: 1-flashing red/green, 2-flashing red/green, 3-red, and 4-red
    I must have read almost every post in this forum and tried many things such as:
    disconnecting all componets except for video, ram, and cpu
    the during boot to recover the BIOS
    removing mobo from case, maybe a short
    moving the memory to different slots
    moving the PSU to a different computer...it works
    disconnecting the PSU from the mobo and and removing the battery overnight. The first night I did not disconnecting the PSU from the mobo and I found that did nothing.
    Tryed everything that I could think of and some stuff that others thought of but nothing worked. However the last item...removing the battery...did change things some. Now nothing happens, and I mean nothing...no lights, no fans, no buzzing...nothing.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. The only recourse I have left is to RMA the board.

    I tried one stick in all of the slots with and without the sound card. That did not work either.
    The voltage for my memory is 2.6 so that is what I tried. But if I can get it to boot up again I will try 2.7.
    Tks.
