I have Toshiba laptop Portege R500, for about 2 years it was Ok and no problem happen. But after 2 years it had a problem, when turned power on, it took a long time in BIOS ( about 5 minutes) before loading the operating system (Windows).
Now the problem is solved. Cause is error in DVD Drive, I have not decided to look for the new DVD drive, i did to disconnect the DVD from the laptop, it doesn't matter for me without the CD/DVD R-RW drive.
If you have the same problem with your Portege R500, maybe this can solve your problem too.
How to disconnect the CD/DVD R-RW Drive :
• Turn off the Notebook
• Disconnect /Open the battery
• Open the back cover / remove all screws using a screw driver
• Disconnect DVD Drive data cable
• Replace the cover, put back all screws.
