sometimes my laptop wont start bios

JohnJari · Apr 11, 2014

I have a toshiba satelite l875d
the problem is that sometimes the bios wont start up.
I have tried removing the battery and holding power button for 30sec, removing cmos battery, updating bios, removing ram one by one.
but no fix.

anyone has any ideas?

it's a timing thing, some mobos you have to hit the right key (different for some mobos) before the splash screen even comes up and others you need to hit it a number of times to make sure it gets the input from your keyboard.

Im not sure how your answer can help me, i have the right combination of keys ( Fn button +B) and it works when i press it.
How do i make the computer start up without pressing the combination?

What is the issue, that the laptop won't boot, or that you can't get into the BIOS screen? Is the time/date set properly when it boots up? That looks to be a pretty new laptop, contact Toshiba if it's in warranty, no need to mess with it too much if you have issues. Eventually it may totally break and be out of warranty then.

The issue is that the laptop does not start every time, sometimes there is just a black screen, no bios, no nothing, and sometimes it starts up normally with no problems.

Contact Toshiba, may be a loose screen connector. When you don't get a screen, does the system actually sound and look like it's starting up? Fans and lights go on but no display? Or totally dead when you hit power button?

when I dont get a screen the computer is dead, no activity i can hear the harddrive boot but it does not load afterwards, the fan is blowing, and only the power led is on.
the computer turns of instantly if i press the power button.
