BIOS update fails on Satellite P100-429

I had a bad flash on my Satellite P100-429.
The utility crashed which left me with a bookend. Not happy

I ve created a floppy crisis recovery disk & bought a USB floppy drive after a lot of internet hunting for info.
Problem is that I need to check on the exact key combination for my laptop to the crisis recovery mode reverie.
Power on I have the usual symptoms, LED flash, power for CD-rom, click on power of floppy etc...
I just need to check the correct sequence for the combinations of keys.

Can anyone help?
Win - f, victory-b, f - fn, fn - b, victory-esc, fn-escape doesn t seem to work for me

The waiting time for floppy drive boot after combination etc?
Help!

Hello

I n t have experience with these tools of recovery of the BIOS because I think it s a little too risky. There is no official way to recover a BIOS and I don t want to destroy the whole ROM module.

In my opinion if a BIOS update n t successful, you should go to an authorized service provider. Contact a technician for laptop and explain your situation. The technician can try to reflash it and they have more experience. I think that this should t be a problem to connect with one. ;)

Good luck!

    Hello

    Sorry, he says, but there is not much to do. You will need to contact the ASP (authorized service provider) in your country for assistance.
    If you are a lucky man, motherboard maybe isn't the damage and the ROM module must be flashed only.

    You will also find the Toshiba AEP in Israel.
    Please check this page of Toshiba and search for ASP in Middle East-> Israel

    Problem with often increase GPU to high temperature (over 100 ° C) using sensors applet to check.

    While the .exe to extract the contents of the flash on your c:\tmp I'll try a bios flash with a bootable usb key and phlash.exe with the BD13C43. WPH.

    The problem is to find the phlash.exe official back... Phoenix does not provide such tools ;(

    Toshiba has offered traditional old BIOS updated (diskette), a long time ago. Now you can find WIN updates only.

  • Satellite L755-S5349 - BIOS update failed - black screen

    Hello.

    So yesterday, I got a Toshiba pop-up message to update my BIOS, so I clicked it and it started to update but then it says "error checking".

    So I closed it, cause I had to restart my computer after one previous update with another program and I thought to try to update the BIOS after you restart.

    But once it restarted it is off, so I tried to put back market but the screen is black, lights are immediately (food, batt etc.) and the fan works just as well. I tried to take the battery out and in again but screen remains black.

    Could someone please tell me what you think it might be and what I have to do.

    I also tried with a HDMI, but it does not recognize.

    Thank you for your help

    Hello

    I think I have bad news for you.
    To me, it seems that the update of the BIOS didn't
    Why? Who knows maybe that some applications that runs in the background affected the BIOS update process.

    I've updated the BIOS on my laptop last night, everything went well. First, I downloaded the BIOS package from the Toshiba page. Then I unzipped the folder.
    I closed all applications that looked like Firewall, antivirus etc software
    Then I did the BIOS update

    At least in cases where the BIOS update failed, you must get in touch with a local ASP Toshiba in order to solve this problem in the best of cases they need to update the module ROM again

    Good luck

  • GPU fans to work on Satellite P100-429 (Nvidia) on Linux

    Hello

    I have a P100-429... and managed to get the GPU fan to work. As most of you probably know, we edit the DSDT in order to get its work under Linux (and these laptops). There, another fix that also allows the GPU fan work. Mine seems to be on low-speed all the time and the Nvidia display configuration application now the temp to be less than 50 c most of the time, so before he went up to 75 or more.

    In any case, I've posted my DSDT updated at: http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/edit.php?manufacturer=Toshiba&name=Satellite+P100-429

    NB I use also of the Bios version 3.30.

    I found the solution on the French site, I had to interpret slightly.

  • Satellite P100-429: sharp sound appears when 3rd device is connected

    I have a satellite P100-429 with a Conexant internal sound card.
    My problem is when I attach to any other electric audio device to record or play to, a high-pitched noise can be heard on the two pieces of equipment.

    When the power of the laptop is removed and it works on battery power, only the noise disappears as soon as the power is reconnected the noise returns

    I checked the section driver Toshiba and there is an available (V3.11.0.51) driver update that resolves this problem.
    Note: Before installing the audio driver updated to at least the BIOS version 2.10 or higher must be installed on the laptop.

    How to install the Sound Driver (V3.0.51):
    1. download the driver from the website.
    2 unzip the file.
    3. double-click on the "setup.exe."
    Shortly after, the following window appears:
    4. click on 'OK '.
    5. click on 'OK '.
    The audio driver is installed

    Be careful with the update of the BIOS. Choose the good BIOS and the right update procedure

  • Satellite P100 - 429 (PSPA3E) memory upgrade to 4 GB

    I have 2 GB of Ram at the moment and would like to 4 GB is possible, accept the Bios and I run Windows Vitsa Home Edition.

    Hello

    I googled a bit and found some information s
    It seems that the Satellite P100-429 supports the 4 GB of RAM.
    The Intel® 945 PM Express chipset, which is installed in this notebook supports 4 GB to 400, 533 and 667 MHz

    So, theoretically, you might be able to pass to 4 GB of RAM.

    But note; If you are using Vista 32-bit, then the OS will see only 3.2 GB

    To get full access 4 GB of RAM, you will need the 64-bit Windows OS.
