Press the FN + F5 hot keys to adjust the display 
priority, and to make sure it is not set for output to 
an external monitor.
Markings appear on 
the computer's

These marks may have come from contact with the 
keyboard and Touch Pad while the display panel 
has been closed. You should try to remove the 
marks by gently wiping the display panel with a 
clean dry cloth or, if this fails, with a good quality 
LCD screen cleaner. In this latter instance you 
should always follow the instructions with the 
screen cleaner and always ensure you let the 
display panel dry properly before closing it.

Check to see whether there is a CD-ROM/DVD-
ROM in the optical disc drive - if so remove it and try 
to start the computer again. 
If this has no effect, check the Boot Priority setting 
within the TOSHIBA HW Setup utility - please refer 
to th
 section in Chapter 4, Utilities & 
Advanced Usage for further information.

The files on the hard disk drive may be fragmented - 
in this instance you should run the disk 
Defragmentation utility to check the condition of 
your files and the hard disk drive. Please refer to the 
operating system's documentation or online Help 
File for further information on operating and using 
the Defragmentation utility.
As a last resort you should reformat the hard disk 
drive and then reload the operating system and all 
other files and data. If you are still unable to resolve 
the problem, contact your reseller, dealer or service 
provider.
