Hello,

My computer comes on and reads:
Toshiba
Leading Innovation>>> and it goes no further. Any answers as to what might be wrong?

Hello Princetta,

If your laptop is out of warranty, then you could try these steps:
1. Open your Toshiba laptop using your screwdriver, but before that consult the service manual for specific instructions ?n opening your laptop.
2. Locate the CMOS battery on the motherboard. This battery is about a centimeter in diameter, silver and is round. Depending on the model of your laptop, the battery might be protected by a blue or black static shielding bag. Get rid of the bag.
3. Carefully remove any clips or tape holding the battery in place, remove it of its holder.
4. Try with different CMOS battery, or wait till that one to be fully discharged.
5. Reassemble your Toshiba laptop.
6. Boot your laptop and set the correct date and time. Restart your laptop to ensure the changes have been saved and that the new CMOS battery is saving the relevant data.

Hope this helps,
