After installing an update of the bios recommended on the hp website my dv6131od running xp pro sp3 will not load windows

Update does not seem to have problems - failure, lack of time for flash, backup, etc.

boot sequence seems normal (finds it a bootable cd in the drive, etc.), but windows won't load in safe or other mode

next steps?  is there a way to access the BIOS?

Thank you

There is a simple solution to this problem.  The HP Online Crash Analysis Team has finally responded to my email after 34 days.  I had given up hearing from them despite several requests to repeat.

I had completely disassembled the laptop trying to find the bios setting the jumpers on the motherboard in response to an idea contained in one of the PM, I sent... all to nothing does not...

OCAT told me to look in the BIOS under "system configuration" for the Native SATA support.  The last update of the BIOS resets this point 'activated', but that only works for Vista & Win 7.  This must be set to "disabled" for XP and previous operating system.

I hope that this post will save someone having to wait 5 weeks invest hours of work for a solution that took 3 minutes!

  • Tecra A11 - 11N - after that the BIOS update programs not loading now

    My model is Tecra A11 - 11N. I ran the BIOS update and now some of my programs, including ITunes, Nokia Ovisuite, payer VLC etc. are not running. I tried to uninstall and reinstall them, but same problems.

    In any case to come back before upgrade?

    Hi evangny,

    I also Tecra A11 in front of me and have installed latest version of BIOS but this didn't affect all installed programs. BIOS and installed programs are different.
    What you can do is load the default settings in the BIOS after the update.

    Can you be a bit more detailed?
    What exactly happens if you try to start these programs? You get an error message?

    You use the version preinstalled Windows from Toshiba?

    Last night I've updated the BIOS of my laptop, but when the completed BIOS flashing, she restarted Windows. The machine could not start. The CD/DVD device go into a cycle with a yellow light and the screen does not appear anything. Can someone help me solve this problem.

    Old Bios: v1.40

    OS: Windows XP with SP3

    I can't use the CD/DVD device to start with a Win PE.

    Thank you

    Hello!

    I think that the BIOS was not correctly because your computer laptop doesn't start up again.
    In this case, you can make t a lot of.

    Try this: remove the battery and the AC adapter, wait up to 1 hour and then connect the battery and AC adapter. Try it again and hope it works.

    If this does not work, you should contact a local ASP. In the worst cases, the motherboard must be exchanged :(

  • Questions after the BIOS updates and driver - place 11 pro

    Hi all

    I am owner of a place of reference dell 11 7140 model 10 64-bit windows running and about 5 days ago I installed the latest drivers and the latest version of the BIOS using the automatic detection of the dell support page www.dell.com/.../drivers printer driver

    Since then, I met the two following questions:

    1: the automatic detection of the dell driver no longer works

    2: the system does not detect when a headset is connected, the audio always comes out the speakers Tablet - I reinstalled the latest drivers, but made no difference

    I wonder if anyone else has experienced those problems and what measures have you taken to solve problems.

    Thank you

    I managed to solve the problem with the audio: it was caused by an incorrect realtek driver installatiion, for some reason any 'Realtek Audio Manager' was not loaded when you start and that's why the system doesn't detect the status of the audio input jack.

    Always have the question of the automatic recognition of the driver, but at least I have a tablet of new work!

  • Laptop will not load Explorer - is there a way to download Firefox without using Explorer? Restore the all too recent dates!

    I think that affected versions of Windows Explorer (we have a card in the laptop, which I believe is the origin of the problem) so that it is more load. I would like to switch to Firefox, but do not know how to load it without exploring. My Google Earth goes to internet and my e-mail program (Mozilla Thunderbird) still work so the wireless connection still works, but Explorer does not work. Can anyone help? 'Restore' my dates are all too recent. I restored once reworked Explorer, but Windows downloaded their upgrades again and now does not load Explorer. The oldest date of 'restoration' is too recent. I type this request for help on another computer.

  • The sound is de-energized in the latest version of FF. He did re - will not load unless I re - load the browser. What could be the problem?

    Since I downloaded the latest version of FF, I've known audio dropouts. Refresh the pages does not solve the problem. Can I close the browser and re - load and sometimes it will be effective for a while, but eventually, the noise decreases again.

    I can't use this browser to disseminate my audio to a server either.

    I used a different browser, and the problem is exclusive to FF.

    Please help if possible.

  • Satellite Pro L300 - which improved after the BIOS update

    Hello users,.

    I just finished an update of the BIOS on Satellite Pro L300 using Updater Insyde Bios. I tried the Toshiba site to see what's new or what has improved since the update my bios 1.7version v2.2. But there is no search results. I also went to the site Web Insyde, but neither have they put up what has changed or improved?

    Is there a documentation or information which could help me to know how my laptop has improved or better after the update of the BIOS and what has changed since my update of the BIOS?

    Thank you

    Hello

    I assume you mean a changelog of the BIOS. Well, normally this document is placed on the Toshiba page where you can download the BIOS update.

    If you can't find such a t changelog, there is no available changelog. All that s!

    In addition the BIOS update should be performed only if it of really necessary. This means that if everything works fine, I don't see a reason to update because this update is a bit risky.
