My Toshiba A60 will not boot up.
When I turn the laptop on the in touch with tomorrow stays on for longer than usual, it eventually disapears and then starts too boot up and the black windows home edition logo appears with the green status bar at the bottom, after about 10 seconds the status bar freezes and thats as far as I get.
I've tried a new HDD reloaded recovery disk and the same happends, the machine just freezes at this point.
I've ran memory checker program (which found no errors) for around an hour without any issues. The machine also doesn't freeze when loading the recovery software!!
HELP!!!!
Insert the Toshiba A60 recovery disc into the CD/DVD-ROM drive.
Power off the Toshiba (with the recovery disc still loaded inside the optical drive).
Release the "F12" key when the" In Touch with Tomorrow TOSHIBA" screen is displayed. This will open up the BIOS.
Change the boot order by using the arrow keys to select "CD/DVD ROM" icon in the menu. The Toshiba will now boot from the recovery disc and restore the system. Follow any additional on-screen instructions.

I have tried 2 HDD's on the machine, one of which is brand new.
I have then placed the HDD's into another machine and installed XP and Vista without any issues.
I'm thinking it could be Processor or System board.
Many thanks for that, I have used the 2 HDD's in another machine to test and installed XP on them and they both work without any issues.
Where do you think I should explore next? Processor or motherboard?
same as above
