Bio battery needs to update...

Where must be done to update the bio for a dv6-1230?  I bought a new battery that load, but when the power cord is unplugged, the machine stops.  I contacted the seller and he suggests that I need to download a new bio.  Sorry, I'm not familiar with this procedure... any help?

Who is this guy? Looks like that it gives you the runaround after you sell a defective battery. The BIOS is not likely to have an influence on the performance of the battery. However, if you want to update the BIOS (which is the base of the laptop control system, sometimes called firmware) is done by following this link here:

Read the instructions. You can run this Windows and she didn't flash the BIOS then forces the system to restart. However, you run a huge risk IMO do this on a laptop with a bad battery... If the failure you will have a boat anchor not a computer. Good luck.

  • Defective spare battery - seller says I need to update BIOS - advice needed

    Any advice will be appreciated.

    I bought a spare online battery for my laptop. Since the replacement of the battery, the PC has increased its noise level (IE more often that otherwise seems overwork), so I did a "HP Battery Check" and the result States "one or several cells don't work properly. I contacted the seller, and they say I need to update my BIOS.

    I'm a little worried about it for several reasons:
    1. the software clearly indicates that the battery is not working properly.
    2. the computer and all other software works well.
    3. I have never played with before BIOS and after googling "update of the BIOS", almost all suggest "DO NOT go" unless: you know what you do / the problem is clearly a related problem of BIOS (HP State diagnostics is the battery... and shows no system other problems).

    I'm ok with the replacement of hard drives, RAM etc and treat fairly confident with most software and hardware problems, but I never tried to update a BIOS... and as I need my laptop (and all software running on this subject at the moment) and do not want to go through the stress of venturing into uncharted territory on a current PC - I'm more tempted to just buy another battery from a different company and put this to a bad experience online, as the seller does not simply want for refund or Exchange (as much as the cost of replacing the battery... still!... compared to the opening of a world of problems after trying to update a BIOS which seems to work very well anyway!).

    As I said, any advice would be really appreciated

    Thanks in advance

    James

    PS No. knew software or hardware has been installed since the replacement of the battery

    Details of the laptop: HP G70 111EA laptop, Intel Core Duo T5800 @ 2.00 GHz, 3 GB RAM, Vista Home Premium (32 bit).

    If the purchased battery has been specified in the appropriate type for your computer, I see no reason why a BIOS update would make a difference. More likely, the seller hope you will turn your computer into a brick by updating the BIOS, making it a moot issue bad battery.

    Before you start, I would do anything I can to put in place from an outside source if the battery is actually defective. If you do not know someone with a similar laptop, a computer store or from taking the battery might check what said you that your software. A bad cell in a battery is usually obvious by a voltage drop so that the battery either distributes the specified voltage or it is not.

    If the battery is really bad, they know you ship the battery to them (signature required) and then proceed to cancel any credit card (or other method of payment online product/service) charges. While online sales generally operate at profit margins very tight, which, in itself, does not not to honour a request for an exchange of the product. Stop payment on an item usually attracts attention.
  • Satellite Pro A120: Need to update the BIOS after upgrade CPU

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A120 and I need to update the bios of a change in cpu cause.
    The laptop works very well, but for some reason any with the new processor fan runs always full.

    A lot, I searched but found nothing.
    The model number is PSAC1E-0QL04CG3 of ideas where I can find the bios?

    THX in advance,
    John

    Hello

    First of all: update BIOS doesn t help you.
    Why do you think that BIOS update should help reduce the activity of fan?

    I guess that your new processor is faster. Right?
    So it offers more performance and this leads to higher heat dissipation... so finally the CPU must be cooled and this can be done only if the cooling module would turn faster you agree with me?

    By the way: the update of the BIOS is on the page of the Toshiba UE driver. Since the satellite Pro A120 is very old series, you will need to search for drivers in area Archive (Type of product-> Archive)

  • Need help updating Bios dc7800 Compact Mini Tower: ROM CAB missing or damaged

    I need help, updated the BIOS on my HP dc7800 CMT. I get this error message:

    System BIOS updte file (. C:\Users\f\Downloads\ROM CAB) is missing or damaged. THE system BIOS does not update.

    I tried to update using the sp53611.exe (8.0 MB) 1.32 Rev A(6 Dec 2011) HP Compaq Business Desktop system BIOS (BIOS 786F1)

    Which can be found here.

    http://h20564.www2.HP.com/hpsc/SWD/public/detail?sp4ts.Oid=3459243 & swItemId = vc_97114_1 & swEnvOid = 4059

    The current version of my BIOS is: 786F1 v01.04 2007-07-18

    I am running Windows 7 64-bit Ultiate. I noticed on the page (linked above) software, it mentions most of the flavors of Windows 7 64-bit, but it does not mention Win 7 ULTIMATE 64-ditch.

    Here's what I did:

    (1) computer restarted in safe mode

    (2) connected as administrator

    (3) Task Manager began to ensure that all applications and most of the services have been arrested

    3 (a) as an additional precaustion, I even stopped Windows Defeneder

    (4) double clicked on sp53611.exe and let it install the software.

    (5) This opens a web page. I clicked on the link which was under the Bio update to a windows environment.

    (6) the process has started, but then I got the above error.

    Any ideas on what to do next?

    Is it possible that the BIOS cannot be updated because the software does not support windows 7 64 bit ULTIMATE?

    Thank you in advance. I have a new graphics card today (Radeon HD 6570 - who has been recommended by Mr. Paul Tikkanen, thank you), and I guess I should have my current BIOS a bit, no?

    Hello:

    There should be no need to update the BIOS, if everything is working properly.

    If you want to update the BIOS, you must use the built in Flash ROM of system menu in the BIOS.

    It is the safest and easiest way to Flash the BIOS.

    All you need is a USB stick formatted with the FAT 32 file system.

    Download the latest BIOS update, then run it.

    You should get a page of instructions.  On this page, you want the option F10 system flash rom and you should see a summary of BACK flash folder view.

    Copy all the files in this folder on your USB.

    Plug the drive into the usb port, restart the PC and at the beginning of the HP welcome screen, press the F10 key to access the BIOS.

    There will be a menu to System Flash ROM

    What to choose and it should see the BIOS update files on the usb flash drive.  Then follow the instructions on the screen to proceed to the update of the BIOS.

  • I need to update BIOS on Satellite L750?

    Received the message of Tempro following earlier:
    This TEMPRO alert is to inform you of an update of the driver for your specific laptop model. This is based on the release date of the original software.
    This Bios update adds functionality to your system

    Download zip is version 2.70 and on the audit of the system, I have version 2.30 installed on 23/03/2011, even if only, I bought this laptop on the 18/04/2012

    Probably Tembro has identified some improvements that could be made in updating, but * I just can't find it "an increase in the feature" this update provides * and if I need it because I'm not aware of any problems. Everything works perfectly.
    Sorry to waffle on, but in short, should I upgrade or not?

    Any advice appreciated,
    See you soon,.
    Anthony

    N ° if everything works perfectly don't change anything.
    My advice to you is: remove tempro system and be happy. I'm two years old P500 with BIOS original and original pilots (own recovery image installation) and I always use it with the factory settings. It works perfectly.

    All the updates you need are updated Windows (updates) and updates of the antivirus application.

    No more than that.

    Hello!

    If you want to update the BIOS, you need version 5.60. Are the other version for Vista and 5,60 only one is for XP and if it s the right one for you.

    The BIOS update procedure is quite easy. The update is based on Windows, which means that you can update it on Windows. So to extract all files from zip archive and run the exe file. Then updated your BIOS.
    But before update you, close all programs running even your AntiVirus and firewall and connect the AC adapter.

    Good luck!

    Hi JudyWinn,

    If you need assistance for updating BIOS (Basic Input Output System), I recommend you contact the manufacturer of your computer to update the BIOS (Basic Input Output System) & check if the problem persists.

    Note: Changing the BIOS / chipset can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/chipset can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    Hope the helps of information.
    Please post back and we do know.

  • Satellite Pro C50-A-154 - battery after automatic update problems

    Hello world!

    First of all, I must apologize for my bad English, if it is not as good as be... after that, I could start to tell you all what happened to me in the last few weeks...

    I have an a C50-A-154 Toshiba Satellite Pro and I use it for stuff like watching youtube videos, listening to music, and do this kind of thing than a normal user.

    A few weeks ago a Toshiba Tempro Alert remember that there are software updates avaliables to download for my laptop, so I installed them, I normally unplug my battery when I have the power cord plugged in, so I didn't realize after a week after that my battery was not recognized as it should be for my toshiba.

    Initially, windows said that it is fully charged and no need to continue to load, so I unplugged the power cord and the laptop shutted down (with battery connected and therefore be charged to 100%).

    When I plugged it again the power supply cable, windows said that the battery was empty and told them, hip but not load...

    At the same time, a new toshiba update was released, this time was for the bios, if I have that it is probabbly fix the problem with the battery, so I updated the BIOS and windows says that the battery was full charged... I couldn't believe...!

    But the system always goes down when yo unplugg the AC cord, and now battery said once again that it is empty...

    Yesterday was a new update for the Bios, so I give another chance, but nothing has changed... I can't use the battery, and I have no warranty, so I don't know what to do...

    I read a lot of posts on battery of problems lately, in the forums of europe and US forums... maybe it's a software problem? Maybe toshiba boys don't have any idea about this problem?

    Thanks for your replies!

    Ruckmess

    Hello

    I think it might be a software related issue.
    In Device Manager, you will find the battery input compatible Micorsoft ACPI method. It belongs to the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface.

    I recommend you to uninstall the three topics that you might find in the battery area.

    Reboot the laptop. After restarting again, the system should install all devices removed once more.
    Usually, this should help to unravel the question in the case of its just system problem

  • Bad Bios on the N100 update

    Hello

    I have an old laptop lenovo n100, 1.66 dual core, 2 GB of ram. The problems started when I tried to install win 8 dev preview on this, because I'm pretty interested in coding, so the idea was to do it on that and use it as a test computer. When I went into the bios, the model number and uuid of the system were corrupted, and is showing some corrupt characters or simply f and e

    I googled the problem and suggested he try to Flash the bios, now lenovo messages only a windows flashing the BIOS utility, so in my haste to solve the problem, I applied it, made sure it was running and left the House for a couple of hours. When I came back, the laptop had been frozen completely, I could not move the mouse, send any encoding or the command to the laptop, the screen froze at 18:07 - about five minutes after I left it - typical!

    Since it froze, the 13/19, I thought that if she didn't drive reacts after 4 hours or more, there was no hope for her. Then I went to turn off the machine, he would not be turned off via the power button. Then I took the battery out of the machine, left outside for half a minute, then plugged back in and started the machine, that the portable computer tries to read the dvd that is in it for the moment, because it makes a noise and activity led lights up, but the screen does not display anything.

    These laptops have a module fail safe in it, or any other means of attachment, or is it for scrap?

    Thanks in advance

    If I understand your question now the display does not come.

    It seems that the BIOS is not fully updated and it has been corrupted the BIOS program.

    You can take the laptop to the service center for service.

    Best regards

    Have you looked to see if your motherboard has a BIOS update available?

    I have personally had updated the BIOS on my motherboard during the upgrade from my old i7 920 quad-core CPU for an i7 960 hexa-core CPU.  The motherboard wouldn't even POST after upgrading the CPU without BIOS flash first, it might be interesting to try.  It might be better to install the old CPU and make sure that everything is working normally before flashing the BIOS.
