Hello All,
I am working on a Toshiba Equium A100-549. When the system is switched on it goes through it's POST routine but will freeze. The bar will get to approx 75% along and hang.
If I press F12 to select boot device, this will give me the boot options and I can then select the HDD or optical drive and the system will boot.
If the ODD is removed then the system will boot (after a slight pause when the bar is at 75%)
I have updated the BIOS.
I have tried alternative ODD (H-L and TEAC)
I have tried alternative CPU
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Dickie.
