Re: Toshiba m35x screen won't come on and beeps - one...
The beeps that you are discribing unfortunatly point to a faulty motherboard, If the notebook is still under warrenty then it would be worth exchanging it for a new one.

Hi there, you will need to go into the BIOS page (usually the Del key or an Function (F) key at the Toshiba logo). You will need to change the boot order from network/lan to the Hard Drive. Its pretty straight forward mate.
I believe that the syptoms you are experiencing include the power button lighting up during start up and the fan cycling for 5 seconds, but no other activity. There may or may not be a series of audible "beeps". A CD will come up to speed, but will not load. I have had this happen three times with my M35X-S111 due to it not being able to recognize the RAM. The first two times, I re-seated the RAM and it successfully booted. The third time, I reseated the RAM 50+ times with it only successfully booting once. The slot that holds the RAM cards does make a good electrical contact with the cards. Since the RAM holder is integral to a card, you cannot replace it with a "generic" holder, instead, you have to replace the entire card. I discarded my Toshiba after that third failure.
