Toshiba Tecra 510 CDT Problem???

By Chandler - usenet poster


Hi,

My Tecra 510 CDT didn't boot yesterday morning. When I turned on
the power, it started beeping continuously. The battery was fully
charged. It hung up after the memory test. However, I powered it
on about 8 hrs later, it booted up without any problem. It has
been running ok. I am running Windows NT 4, with 32 MB RAM.
Did the same thing happen to anyone? I know the hard drive has a
bad sector. It crashed twice before and made a lot of noise after
the memory test. I had to reinstalled the operating system.

The laptop was bought about 1 year and a half ago. I wonder if
it has a 3-year part warrenty.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Terry

The 510 has a three year warranty. Grinding noises sounds like an impending
HD failure. Hanging after a memory count is definitely a HD failure.

Tome to get it into an authorized Toshiba service center.

Beeps often indicate motherboard probs.

Best advice: contact Toshiba (good luck) and see if your machine is
still covered under warranty. If so, back up all your data before
sending it back to them.

Good luck.

Please let this ng know what happens.
