Updated BIOS fully & now my laptop screen won't turn on(black screen). The unit turns on, the disc drive runs... but I now have a black screen. & Yes I tired to remove BIOS battery & reset It but still nothing. I tired overwriting system comands, recovery disc, boot disc... What can I do to get my system running again?
Please help!!
 
Unfortunately, there probably isn't much that can be done from your end. Your best bet is to probably get in touch with Toshiba and see what they have to say. If the laptop isn't under the 1 year factory warranty, my guess is that they'll try and determine if it was user error or a their error. If it was their error, they may fix it for free.
