A15 BIOS DON'T SE DOES NOT!

Sorry, it's all this old stuff, but that's how life is sometimes...

so, I'm in the process of applying the most recent (and probably last) BIOS update for my OptiPlex 780 SFF faithful, but the new version is not a flash file - it's download, put on a "Startup" disk, and run from there... the problem is there is no "bootable system disk" for windows 7...   This is problem no. 1.

problem # 2 is, even if I wanted to, how can I make a boot disk?  I even went up to buy one that has a 'guest of the access system' which injects me very politely as x:\ - into a variant of Linux which is be incompatible with BIOS / windows 7 altogether.

so, I'll give you a big fat cigar to anyone who can solve this one - I can't of course...

Thank you

I agree with you.  I can go with my own experience however in this more modern UEFI/BIOS updates are auto executable.  I will say that if you click on the EXE file and it only unzip that bios file and a readme, then you need to get a bootable flash drive.  You can click here for a Google search on flash bootable drives.

  • Satellite A300D (PSAKCE) - BIOS is damaged and does not start

    I formatted computer after when I put update computer BIOS is frozen and it does not work now. File is true where I download from Toshiba Web site.
    I searched Web of Toshiba sites there was not any producere for recovery of the BIOS for the damged BIOS file. Many start-up models with some keys to the BIOS update but mine is not starting any screen only empty key.

    Hello!

    In this case, you need help from the ASP. You can do anything and it is possible that the ASP BIOS reset.

  • BIOS on Satellite L350 does not recognize devices

    Hello

    I have a Satalite L350 breaking in windows after about 1 min of loading. I thought that maybe the hard drive was defective, so I tried to run a program I called PC test 6. I then discovered that the cd player would not read. I then tried a CD USB player and again it would not start a disc. After resetting the BIOS to default settings, I discovered that the BIOS is not recognizing any device other than the hard drive. I took the hard drive and tested with PC Check via another PC and HD spent.

    Now I want to reinstall windows, but the CD player does not start. I guess that the problem comes my BIOS maybe flashing (InsydeH20 version 1.5) it would work? But... no device USB and CD: S

    Any ideas that I can please?

    Hello

    I don t think that the BIOS is the problem.
    The BIOS recognized HARD drive correctly. Right?
    Well, I think that the CD/DVD drive is faulty if the BIOS cannot recognize what
    Furthermore the L350 BIOS does not support startup from the CD/DVD USB drive.
    It is not possible

    If you want to install the recovery disk operating system, then you need to replace the internal CD/DVD drive because it appears to be defective

    Of course, it's my personal choice and just a suggestion

    I upgraded my BIOS 83ET78WW T420 (1.48), but now my microphone mute button and brightness controls no longer work. When I adjust the brightness, the indicator appears in the display, but it does not actually.

    Hi all

    If the solution was done by a kind shop in Hungary, http://reballing.hu

    and a specialist in firmware http://vinafix.vn

    So apperently my BIOS has been corrupted that CAPS lock sign showed and it could have been rewritten with HP Diagnostics if HP could provide the RSA key for her...

    In this case it is not provided, you don't have that one other solution, to find a nice (as reballing.hu) repair shop, where the guys are nice enough to disassemble your computer, take the chip and write the data without the requirement of RSA software HP Diag using a writer BIOS correctly. You can also buy writers of the bios and the tools, but he could be uite costly and risky for you to do...

    So you have a repair guy, the only other thing that you might need to trust is the dump of the BIOS correct, please note that the supplied with the softpaqs .bin file is encrypted, so it must be decrypted, it is not an easy task, it worked for me too after awhile, but better to find a provider of bios (saves time for you as well and that is why HP is not willing to give it to you, you have two choices: make a work computer, and read the bios in this way (you must have the identical chip and content, so preferabily the same card mother or product)

    Or go to www.vinafix.vn and ask them to provide you with, these people are kind enough to explain how the thing works and what you need to write your own return data.

    So once that you set is not more than 30 minutes for a handy guy and as they work at the time, it is fairly cheap as well, it cost me 25 USD total (10 for bios) and 15 for the actual work done

    It's a shame that yu can not really find information about this threat, and also that it can happen to your computer at any time it seems that, always in waiting to see what caused, and if she came back or not... but as of now, I am pleased that the computer is back on!

  • Original image has disappeared I think off the hard drive and the BIOS password set up does not work?

    Someone please help me with this!

    I bought this laptop from a friend (have receipt) who sell it to me because the screen was cracked and spidered all out when you the activated. And everywhere he went to ask to get the screen fixed it is very expensive ($250 - $350) and he said that it would be just a newer laptop. So he sold me this which is a model Probook of HP4420s XT940UT #ABA. About a week after I bought this Probook friend who sold it to died me suddenly. It was sudden and terrible. Some time later, I had the time of the purchase of the LCD for this model, replace it myself (was very easy actually) and booted up the laptop with a new installation of Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Edition. After installing all my software and using the laptop for a while now, I wanted to get into the Bios that I've never done. So when I started the laptop, click ESC, then F10 to enter the BIOS, there were two places to enter a password is different then all Dell I've ever owned. One was mine I guees I put in place using HP protect tools and the other says BIOS/administrator. Well I can do most of the changes with the one I put in place with my password but my password does not work, nor can I get in some very significant changes that I wanted to do using Bios/administrator, as kindling the LoJack, namely the blocking of the hard drive etc. , turning on turbo boost, fan, etc. Well, since the person I bought is no longer with us, there is no one to turn to the answer to this question of administrator/BIOS password / problem.  I tried to take battery Rtype and restore that way, didn't work. Several times, I called HP and they sent me to a BIOS page to download the same BIOS, I have already, would not let me install it. When I bring up the command prompt and do not put anything in BiosConfigureUtility.exe happens, said just a wrong command. When I try to enter the BIOS through the C: file in the files of the SSM, I reach the BiosConfigUtility.exe file, click on it to open it and it just flashes a way small order page to fast to read what it says. I would like to have complete control over my laptop thinking I have a lot of time and money invested in it now. The problem would have something to do with installing the 64 bit version of Windows 7 instead of the 32 bits guess what it initially provided with?  Where can I find the UUID and what tech Department I would ask because if I have to call HP again and what other information should I have ready for them if you know? I have all the manuals and they say that this laptop is compatible with Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit Pro is what I installed. I'm mixed responses from many different people on this and would like an answer from HP someone who has experience in dealing with the BIOS in the Probooks business models if possible please. I really like this Probook and have since become a big fan of most HP, Dell and Lenovo.  I intend to buy two probooks, one for my wife and one for my daughter because this one is like a MacBook, but better.  Thank you for reading this and I hope someone can help with more than one answer then GET AHOLD OF HP TECHNICAL TEAM. As I said, I did it.

    Model: HP Probook 4420 s

    Jason,

    Sorry to hear about your friend and your problem.  The BIOS password cannot be reset without the help of HP.  They will need some information from your PC and increase your case.  I recommend you give them a call.

  • the 'c' key don't act does not on the keypad wired iMac

    C on my wired keyboard key does not work. I looked at the keyboard Viewer, and the c button does not illuminate when I look at. The capslock key is staying too dull-lit when not in use, the light becomes brighter when I activate it, but she remains weakly lit when turned off.

    I restarted but also tried to plug into each USB port. (I don't think that the keyboard is broken, as I tested it)

    It's the first day, I had these problems.

    I would blow with compressed air, or reverse & bang softly there.

    In the keyboard Viewer can you click the c button and highlight?

  • Satellite A60-202 after bad BIOS updated the PC does not work

    Hello

    After a very bad my BIOS update, my PC doesn't work and doesn't turn on.
    What to do now?
    It is Toshiba Satellite A60-202 with 512 MB of memory and 40 GB of HD.
    model PSA60E-OLP06TFR SA60-202

    Thank you

    Yves

    HI Yves,

    Unfortunately, if the BIOS update procedure does not work (or fill), then it is likely that the BIOS in the CMOS chip had been corrupt and without it, you will not be able to boot your laptop to fix the problem.

    It will be necessary to bring (or send) your laptop to a repairer authorized to have reflashed BIOS.

    Kind regards

  • all-in-one Officejet 6310: officejet 610 all-in-one in offline and don't watch does not reinstall in windows 8

    I have a Wondows 8.1 and a printer portable all-in-one officejet 6310.  I have my printer installed and works fine on my laptop, but out of the blue one day that the printer will be offline and restarting the computer and printer does not correct.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled the computer many times - this helps for about a week before it disconnects again.

    Now when I uninstall my laptop says there is no printer in range and lists no printer for me to install.  When I tried to manually in my printer - doesn't say that there is no such printer available.  Any suggestions?  Apparently this ONLY happens to me on my computer and not someone else in the home on their laptops - we have a total of 4 laptops in the House all on the same router and using the same printer.  Oh how I feel like a fool with windows 8.  Someone at - it helps or good suggestions for me? PLEASE? !!

    Don't worry, it happens to the best of us. I recently became very angry because my iPad was not charging, the end came unplugged from the wall charger! Laughing out loud

    This problem can be caused by outdated closed ware, contradictory I.P within the router, etc. I have worked on a Thread revolving around Windows 8.1 for awhile, check it out for some possible future troubleshooting operations.

    There are steps to add the printer a way, assign a static IP, check that some updates are installed by Microsoft, etc.

  • Update the BIOS Alienware x 51 does not start

    After the BIOS level and rebooted the system, now it seems changed the configuration of startup and 10 Windows does not start.

    I checked the boot options and saw that one selected is now Legacy of start and it seems that Windows 10 works with UEFI.

    Should what boot option I set by default in the BIOS so that window 10 restarts automatically?

    Any help would be apreciated.

    Hello

    Boot option should be UEFI. Disable secure boot, and then on the Advanced tab > Integrated devices: change SATA AHCI mode.

    If the problem persists, press F9 to return to the default settings.

    Let me know how it goes!

  • BIOS rom checksum error does not start

    Compaq

    will not boot at all

    When I turn it on it automatically goes to a black screen that says:

    Award Bios BootBlock v1.0

    Copyright (c) 2000, price Software Inc.

    BIOS Rom checksum error

    keyboard err or no keyboard present

    IDE ATAPI device detection...

    Found CDROM tries to boot from the pass it...

    can anyone tell if this can be fixed if it can and you know I would appreciate it a lot

    Oh and I got a windows vista disc to see if it downloads it, but just on the same screen

    The "boot block" needs to load the rest of the BIOS of a memory chip. Since it doesn't, either the battery on the motherboard (a piece the size of a $0.25 coin silver) has failed, either the content of the memory chip cannot be read.

    Replacing the battery is fairly easy.
    First of all, notice the writing on the top of the battery.
    You will need to put the new battery into the socket,
    with similar writing facing face up into the socket.
    Look on the edge of this battery to a small 'finger' which holds the battery in its socket. Push this "finger" of the Center, and the battery must be able to be raised.
    Remove the accumulator at any computer store and get a replacement.
    Insert it, and then try again.

    If the problem persists, then either he must:
    * Replace the motherboard
    * replace this chip memory (which can be soldered on the motherboard at all times).
    * replace the computer, taking the disc drive of the old computer and its connection as a 'slave' the drive in the new computer.
    * take your computer to an expert technician.

    The attempt to boot from the CDROM is a process "emergency", to use when you have a specially created CD disc that contains a copy of the software to load into the memory of the BIOS chip. It is not a 'normal' start (to load the Vista disc).
