SOURCE: Toshiba Satellite laptop w/ blank, black screen & blinking cursor

the hard drive is not checking in correctly. go into your f2 function which is your bios. see if in there during the boot options if you have a hard drive showing up. if you do, you would need to check if the hard drive has failed or the o.s. is corrupt.if you do not see a drive there, its failed, check to see if its seated correctly. if it is seated correctly the drive has failed and will need to be replaced.


if it shows up, and if you have your restore disk, load it and select repair. it will look for the hard drive and any windows installations. if it does not find any. then the drive is bad and will need to be replaced, in the event it does find the windows installation then continue to repair the machine software.

Let me know what happens when you try this

Good Luck!

SOURCE: Toshiba Satellite L310 problem , display cannot appears

If the screen went blank after the driver install, sometimes clicking the mouse on the screen will bring the picture back. It sounds like the monitor is having a conflict with the resolution the driver is throwing out. Reboot the laptop and when you see the Toshiba splash screen, tap F8 until you see the multiple boot menu. Scroll to Safe Mode with networking and reboot. If the screen comes up, go to the control panel > System > hardware > display adapter > click on the plus sign and double click the reported adapter.click on driver tab and select roll back driver > click yes to any prompts and click ok. Reboot normally and see if that clears the problem.

SOURCE: Toshiba satellite C655 laptop has black screen

Turn the computer off all of the way by holding in the power button until it shuts off.

Turn it back on and immediately start tapping the F8 key. It should bring you to a menu that has an option for going to "Last Known Good Configuration". Choose that option and see if it boots up.

If pressing F8 doesn't bring you to the menu - you may need to run diagnostics on the computer. To get to the diagnostics, attempt to boot to the Boot Menu by pressing F11 or F12 at the boot screen and see if it gives you the option to run diagnostics.

Reset my password l forgot old one verity password my laptop toshiba satellite D850 windows 8 please if know how can im reset? not worked all my keyboard?

Windows 8 when configured usually uses a microsoft account. When it asks for your password, what does it say your login name is?
If there is a login account such as [email protected] then you use a microsoft login account.

If it simply says "Robleh" then you will be using a local account. Here are some suggestions on how to reset your password in windows 8 for each situation:

My Laptop Toshiba satellite a135-2386

Click Start
Click Control Panel
Click Classic View
Click Add/Remove Programs
Select Windows Defender
Click to "remove" it
Restart your computer
Download from http://www.microsoft.com/antispyware
and install the latest version, and let it update.

If it still happens, you may have a computer-virus that is "disabling" Windows Defender everytime you restart.
