    I have a big request! I've tried all the keys I know to open the BIOS, eg F2, F10, F8, DEL, but they won't work. The laptop is about 6 months old and I really don't know how to do it. So please help! Thank you in advance and best regards :) .

    Search for it. Start> All Programs> TOSHIBA> Utilities> HWsetup. Run and change settings, it modifies BIOS.! ATTENTION ! If you don't know what you are changing, don't do it, only for the advanced.

    Would you try to connect another keyboard and test DEL, F8, etc again?

    Okay then yes :) I thought I had a keyboard, but I don't :) And I also do not know how to change this program so that the CD starts for me first :) I want to install windows 7 because I do not like 8 and my computer is terrible and many programs are not compatible with it :) I know that it is terribly tiring, but this is the first time I meet with the fact that I cannot enter Bios :)

    The disc must be "bootable", it is not enough to transfer the files. You have to create the disc in some free program from an "ISO" image, eg "Burnaware Free".

    And this BIOS in this Toshiba is what Phoenix or Award? (after entering the bios it is written at the very top)

    If Phoenix then there should be tabs at the top and there should be one called BOOT. Then, in this tab, I think with the + and - keys or F5 and F6 we set the boot order. BTW what windows on this laptop?

    This is probably Phenix because I've already done it :) And as I wrote, it does not start from the disc because the DVD is set up first :) And windows is the shit ** any 8.1

    Shitty or not, you can set booting from the disc. Only you enter the bios through windows. Anyway, you solved the problem, please close the topic. greetings

    I will stick to the topic. I have a toshiba satellite L55t-B which has no F1, F2, F3 keys and so on, it is new touchscrenn hardware. I don't know what combinations to use to get into the bios.

    I didn't write it, but now I know that this hardware has no bios.
    I did recovery and during the installation the plug fell out, that is, the overlay I have a computer from the states, when I fired it again, a message appeared on the logging screen - preparing to automatically repair and diagnosing your pc over and over again and now I have a problem because I do not know what to do next. If there is no bios and it has EFI, how to solve this problem?

    You do not have function keys, connect an ordinary keyboard to the USB port and then ESC F1 F2 press these three keys all the time in turn until Bios appears. If you fail the first time, try again

    Buddy, the laptops all have Bios, and UEFI is also a bios only a new version of it, which can have a nice graphical interface and icons ...

    Recently, I just had this laptop model. In my case, pressing the F12 button worked when starting and the BOOT MENU appears. Then you enter Enter Setup and enter the bios. There is also a HDD Recovery option there. Write if it works for you. I found it on Toshiba's website.

    As for your further problem, you need to have a properly set up bios / uefi. If you want to use the old system then in bios you have to switch UEFI to CMS BOOT then you can use old boot system and mbr. UEFI features a new GPT file system. You can make the appropriate carriers with the Rufus program - when it comes to pendrives.

    I was able to enter Toshiba Satellite's BIOS (using an external keyboard)
    repeatedly repeated key combinations: Esc, F1, F2, Delete, Esc, F1, F2, Delete, (etc.)
    :-)

Topic summary

Users are experiencing difficulties accessing the BIOS on Toshiba Satellite C55 laptops, with common keys like F2, F10, F8, and DEL failing to work. Suggestions include pressing F2 while powering on, using ESC followed by F1 or F2, and trying F12 to access the boot menu. Some users recommend connecting an external keyboard to troubleshoot key recognition issues. Additionally, accessing BIOS settings can be done through the "HWsetup" utility in Windows. For those transitioning from Windows 8 to 7, ensuring the bootable status of installation media is crucial. The discussion also touches on UEFI settings and the need to switch to CMS BOOT for compatibility with older systems.
