Acer :: Creating BIOS Flashing Boot Disk

Dec 4, 2009

Reason for this is to flash your BIOS the safer way.

Windows has alot of services that can potentially hang the flashing process, hence DOS Mode where no other process is running is the safe way to flash.

First of all get the package here

Extract all the files to Desktop

Go into the folder.

You should see a HP Drive Key Utility.

Install it.

Open the Program With Administrative Permission with Right Click as shown below:.......

Sony :: Flashing New BIOS Sr290 Froze, Now It Won't Boot At All

Apr 1, 2009

I was flashing the newest BIOS to my SR290 last night and in the middle of flashing it froze. I waited quite a while to make sure it wasn't just taking its sweet time but eventually had to pull the battery as holding the power button didn't even do anything.

So I wait a few and then try to boot it back up and it won't power up at all. I plug it in and the charging light won't turn on.

Dell Inspiron 1526 :: No Boot Up - Flashing LED Light

Feb 3, 2013

I have been having problems getting my laptop to boot. I've performed a laundry list of repair options and nothing has worked. As of this moment, I've managed to narrow the query down to the flashing LED light code FLASHING Num Lock-SOLID Caps Lock-Solid Scroll Lock. I've done some further research and I've only managed to get sketchy information at best. It is saying that the problem has something to do with the processor or the system dock--if that information is reliable. I've had contradicting answers on that. I've reseated the processor several times, even switching the processor with a virtually identical processor from my WORKING Inspiron 1501 with no change. And just to confirm that the processor initially seated in the 1526 is working, I have put it in the 1501 and it works. I've swapped compatible components between both machines and everything has worked after being seated in the 1501.

To recap the light code...Flash/Solid/Solid.

Dell Latitude D400 :: Won't Boot - Stalls At Flashing Cursor

Jan 19, 2009

I have an issue with my Latitude D400 laptop which has now occurred twice. Basically, after operating normally and shutting down properly it has stopped booting. After the POST screen it simply hangs at a black screen with a flashing cursor in the top left corner.

Using the recovery console to repair the MBR and boot sector on the HDD has no effect. Neither does a repair installation of Windows XP Pro. The first time it happened I backed up, wiped the disc and started with a fresh installation of XP Pro.

However, it's now happened again. The hard disc is completely undamaged (all files are intact) but will not boot at all.

Dell Precision M4400 :: Won't Boot / Flashing Caps Lock LED

Nov 20, 2014

My laptop won't boot. I press the power button, the power button lights and I hear the system fan run. Then it shuts off and the caps lock LED flashed about 20 times, then turns off if under battery power. If on AC power then the LED stays steady after flashing. Screen never turns on. Late yesterday and late today the computer started hanging. Usually a restart would fix it for a short while. But now it's dead dead. I suspected overheating so I did a bit of digging and figured out how to remove and clean the fan intake. It's was clogged up pretty good, but that hasn't fixed the problem and the laptop is now cool to touch on the bottom..

Acer :: Aspire 7220 Flashing Power Light, Doesn't Boot

Feb 26, 2010

I'm trying to fix my fathers laptop so he won't have to spend money on a new one. Here's the problem:

When I press the power button to boot the laptop it does not boot, it just flashes the power light(s) on and off at maybe 1 flash per second. I've tried removing the RAM-sticks one and one, removing the HDD, removing the battery and removing the DVD reader (not all at the same time, of course). None of those helped, it still did the same thing.

Then I tried to blind flash the bios from a CD, the laptop comes on with the fan at full blast, the DVD reader comes on and it stays on, but it never finishes and powers off.

Acer Aspire 5810TZ :: Flashing BIOS - Boot It Up And It Just Showing Logo

Mar 13, 2013

Flashing the bios. I have a Aspire 5810TZ. I boot it up and it just says 'acer' and won't go any further. I went to the download page for BIOS on us.acer.com and it has a zip file with 5 files:

JM4151135.exe FLA... GPC_V135.bin readme.txt FLASH.BAT

What do I do? I have tried copying the files to a USB and powering on with Fn-Esc held down. After letting go of the power button and holding Fn-Esc a different screen appears after 30 seconds. I let go and have given it 30 minutes but it is not doing anything. I have read online from other people the power button should be blinking. Do I need to rename one of the files.

HP/Compaq :: Still Doing It- 23 Times To Boot Up Properly

Jun 19, 2009

Well my HP dv6000 is still acting up.

Sometimes the laptop will not fully start/load. Meaning it never fully reaches the point when you can surf the net.

When it is not fully functional my mouse will not work when I click on IE or even the start button it can't activate them. It moves but does not activate any icons.

So I'll have to manually shut the lap top down by pushing the power button.

Next time it boots, It may not get to the point where the wireless is not up and running so I can't get IE to run it seems to fall short on booting to that point.

Then I have to hold the power button down to get it to reboot and start again.

Most all the time on the third reboot everything will work fine and run normally.

Time to reinstall my recovery discs and start clean ?

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: Y510P Slow Boot Times - 2 To 5 Minutes

Aug 4, 2014

2 customers complained of very slow boot times 2-5minutes on these machines. 
 
Removal of the Msata 24GB fixed it. I have asked them to check if express cache is installed but seems to be an ongoing problem.
 
What can lenovo do about this? Will replacement of the Msata drives fix the problem or is there a bios update coming which can remedy this.

Dell Latitude E5420 :: Getting Blank Screen On Boot Up Most Of The Times

Jan 16, 2015

I am having some real issues with a Latitude E5420. It will sometimes boot no problem, maybe 40% of the time.

Most of the time it goes to the dell splash screen and the bar goes to the top then i get a blank screen. No blinking cursor or anything. No HD activity, no CD drive activity.

I can press F2 and get in to the bios, i can press F12 and get to the boot menu but even after selecting a boot option from the boot menu i will still get a blank screen most of the time.

Once the Laptop boots up it runs fine and doesn't report any errors. A memory test has shown no errors. I have replaces the CMOS battery, which was a bit of a nightmare, i have replaced/swapped the memory modules.

HP Pavilion M6-1045DX :: Laptop Power Light Flashing And Won't Turn On

Sep 1, 2014

I have a HP Pavilion M6-1045DX laptop and I recently tried to plug it into a display through the Analog RGB and I saw a spark and the laptop shut off. During that time I ran the laptop straight from the AC adapter without a battery because I don't really use it.So the laptop shut off and I tried turning it back on and nothing happened. The charge indicator light turned off even though it was still plugged in. I thought maybe the power adapter stopped working or something but I tested it with a voltmeter and there was still power in it.

So I decided to put the battery in and the laptop was able to turn on, but after a while, this one area that i never felt heat there before was really hot and later smelled like something was burning.But anyway, when it booted up, the screen resolution was really low and was on maximum brightness. When the laptop finished booting, it randomly started installing drivers (such as the WLAN and intel rapid storage) and yeah. Sound doesn't work either. I tried to plug the laptop back in and the battery won't charge.I turned it off and took out the battery and tried running it off from the AC adapter only but the power light was blinking constantly and when I press it, the WiFi button light (F12) turned on for a second and back off. I also hear this high frequency noise that I never heard before somewhere in the laptop.

HP Compaq Presario CQ61 Recovery :: Black Screen - Numlock And Capslock Lights Blinking Twice Every Couple Of Seconds

Jul 22, 2014

I have a problem with my Compaq Presario CQ61-325ED. It won't boot. What I see is a black/blank screen, with the numlock and capslock lights blinking twice every couple of seconds.
 
According to the blink codes, it seems the BIOS has been corrupted [URL] ....  Sadly, no adequate solution is given on that page.Win + B  or Fn + B at startup does nothing, pressing all the arrow keys gives me a continuous blinking pattern (edit: I can't seem to replicate this anymore...). I have also tried creating a bootable USB-stick with a BIOS update, but I don't think I have done it correctly, for it never gets activated (the light on the USB never turns on).

Also, removing/resetting the RAMs or just one of the RAMs does not work. Neither does removing/resetting the CMOS battery. How to successfully create a bootable USB-stick with BIOS update for CQ61-325ED?

Dell Inspiron M501R :: No Longer To Boot Up Its Shows Black Screen And Beeps 7 Times

Mar 10, 2013

My Dell Inspiron M501R will no longer boot up - its shows a black screen and repeatedly beeps 7 times. I understand this means the mother board has failed. The service tag is <ADMIN NOTE: Service tag removed per privacy policy> - its waranty has recently expired.

Interestingly, if you google "Inspiron M501R" google suggests "Inspiron M501R 7 beeps". So I'm guessing this laptop has been designed to fail soon after the waranty expires.

I have  written a letter to BBC Watchdog asking how long a laptop can be "expected" to last and whether this would be covered by the UK Sale of Goods Act.

Sony :: Boot Times For I5/i7 Z: Factory Settings, $50 Fresh Start, Clean Install, Manual Uninstall

Mar 20, 2010

Now that the new Sony Z is out, I think it would meaningful to get a sense of the boot time for this system under various scenarios.

If people could post the boot times of their Z with this information:

- Whether you're calculating the boot with all the bloatware untouched (factory settings), with the $50 Sony Fresh Start (which still has a couple unnecessary programs), a Clean Install, or a Manual Uninstall of all programs.

- And the size of your SSD or HDD. If it is an SSD, it would be nice to know if you can tell us have many SSDs are in the RAID 0 configuration as that affects the speed.

I think this would be very helpful not just for direct comparison, but as another factor to consider in whether to do a clean install, which takes more tech-savvy than some may have.

HP Pavilion 17-e020dx Networking :: WiFi Disconnects Many Times A Day

Oct 12, 2008

HP Pavilion 17-e020dx Notebook...

My wifi disconnects many times a day.  Every other day the wifi adapter cannot find any router signals at all. It's been happeneing since new.  I gave up on HP support as they never fixed ths issue and now the warranty has run out.  At any rate I can get along by turning Wifi off/on when it drops connection, and rebooting the laptop when the adapter fails completely.  Many posts indicate that a new adapter fixes the issue, but HP won't approve one.  Naturally I am not going to buy HP again.

HP/Compaq :: HP Pavilion Dv6428ca Won't Boot

Oct 6, 2009

I am trying to diagnose a friends laptop.

At first I thought perhaps the backlight went on it, but since then i've noticed a few other issues.

When I power on the laptop everything lights up and I can hear the DVD drive and HDD startup normally. But I get no HP splash screen and the monitor doesn't seem to power on either. Which I'm guessing means it's not posting, cause I even plugged it into an external monitor and it doesn't even pickup anything and goes to sleep mode.

After about 10-15 seconds it looks like the laptop reboots itself and starts up the DVD and HDD again but nothing...it just loops.

Is there something wrong with the motherboard ? I checked the monitor for a loose connection and the laptop in general for any internal loose connections and everything seemed fine.

My guess is the motherboard went and maybe the backlight at the same time...I have no idea...

HP Pavilion 15-n003sq OS/Software :: Can't Boot From CD

Sep 14, 2014

why my laptop don't show me the CD option in (F9) Boot Menu.
 
I have to reinstal my windows (8) and I really don't have time to find an USB (I don't have one anyway..), so I have to make it to boot the windows from CD. I don't really understand why it doesn't work, after all, it worked first time when I instaled windows 8.

I search online for solution, but i find only the USB solution. This is not a solution for me I need to instal it from CD.. What if I will format all my partition disk ('till local disk C will delete a part of windows and it will colapse...) -> then will probably boot from CD?.. 
 
Safe Boot it's disabled in BIOS (anyway, it don't let me to enable it). Legacy Boot, i tryed with it enable and disable, I didn't saw a chage.
