Toshiba tecra m1 : can't boot

Hold down the Esc key and press and hold the power button until the on/off light on the system indicator panel illuminates (green) for approximately one second. When the following message appears on the screen: "Check system, Then press [F1] key," press F1. The System Setup screen appears.

If that doesn't work, try powering on the laptop and when the Toshiba splash screen comes up, hit F2 or F12.

One of these methods will get you in to the BIOS setup.

Formatting a laptop is the same as doing it on a desktop computer.
If you are using the Windows installation CD then to get the laptop to boot up with the Windows CD you can change the BIOS boot startup device and make the CD the first boot device.

Yes, it is possible to replace CD, DVD with DVD+RW on Tecra M1. Generally, it is possible to upgrade optical drive on almost all the laptops.

Hope it helps! Good Luck! Thanks for using Fixya!

Sounds like power supply is bad. You will have to take it to a pc repair shop. If there is no sign at all like any green lights or even amber it needs to be repaired if possible. Hope this answers your question.
