Maxi21066, welcome to the Seven Forums.

Boot into the bios (check your manual for which key to hit if unsure), and change the boot order so that the hard drive is the first boot device. Or better if you can remove the network/ethernet/LAN from the boot order entirely. That should fix it.

 

[Maxi21066]

So first should be the
1.HDD
and last should be
5.LAN
I'm so sorry and i don't want to come of as annoying i really don't, maybe I'm doing something wrong but that didn't work (thank you though, it was real nice seeing someone try and help), the order that i put them in is this

1. HDD
2. CD/DVD TSSTcorp CDDVDW TS-L633P (PM)
3. FDD
4. USB Memory
5. LAN

(i cannot delete any of them on the list i can disable something called ''Built-in LAN'' and ''Wake-up on LAN'')

I hope these assist you guys!
and thank you stormy13 for replying!!!!

According to here,

PXE error (PXE= Preboot Execution Environment) message appears during the boot procedure

you have it set right. Will it let you disable the "network boot"?

No idea if anyone from Toshiba actually responds, but this is one of those where it might be better asking on the Toshiba forums,

Laptops - Toshiba Forums

 

[Maxi21066]

I cant thank you enough for all your help right now (thank you). Where do you get the option in the bios to disable network boot? is it under

Main Advanced Display Security Boot Exit


(in the boot tab all i can do is move the boot options around in chronological order) below the options for booting like HDD or FDD it say

F1-Help Up Arrow/Down-Arrow Select item F7/F8-Change Values
ESC-Exit Left Arrow/ Right Arrow- Select Menu Enter- Select Sub-menu

F9 Setup Default
F10- Save and Exit

 

[Maxi21066]

and I'm also asking on the Toshiba Forums too

 

[Maxi21066]

[Maxi21066]

nvm its no use

 

[Maxi21066]

I'm sorry for bringing back an old post, but can somebody help me instead of ignoring me like this, i need my computer all my college papers are on there, all my stuff is on there can someone at least stop by and post something instead of ignoring me!!!??

 

[essenbe]

Maxi21066, I don't think anyone is ignoring you - many just don't know about Toshibas and what options you have in BIOS. I can only tell you that in my BIOS under integrated perephials, on board lan is enabled and Lan option rom is disabled. Of course I don't have a laptop or a Toshiba. You should be able to go into Bios at startup and have an option to enable optimized defaults. If nothing else works you may try that.

 

[Maxi21066]

my bad i was upset over having a paper due that i worked on the broke Toshiba, (i had to redo it), anyway i'm sorry i shouldn't of took my anger out on you guys. Plus I thought about it and i came up with this in order to fix the problem you have to know the root of it. So what causes this to happen?

 

[essenbe]

Did I understand that your problem is fixed?

 

[Maxi21066]

na, im about ready to kick this things @$$ (once i buy a new laptop of course). Thanks for the suggestion though.

 

[essenbe]

Before buying a new laptop try to fix this one. Check your drivers for it. Try to update them in device manager. If that doesn't help, go to toshiba's web site and see if they have new drivers for it.

I understood that you had just installed windows. If you used drivers from whatever system you changed from, they may not work in windows7. Drivers can cause a lot of issues in any system.

 

[essenbe]

you may want to go to realtek's web site and download the driver for your product. Make sure it is the windows 7 driver.

 

[Maxi21066]

Quick Question. Could the problem be caused by it dropping, because i got into an argument with my someone and said person threw my laptop into the driveway pavement, resulting in it having a crack on the top and two black dots on the screen that won't go away.

 

[essenbe]

I would think it certainly could. If there was enough force to crack the case, who knows what may have happened to the components inside.

 

[Maxi21066]

well if it happens again after i installed the drivers then it definitely is the damage

 

[Maxi21066]

one more question! (and thank you for answering and helping me your a good person), what is the difference between a 64-bit and a 32-bit

 

[essenbe]

Try to read this article. I think it explains it much better than I can.
