  I have a HP Compaq 2510p laptop that starts, displays this error message:

  "Your Bios did not complete the update"

  A few seconds later late in goes to the HP Invent screen. and then again the previous error message. These two screens cycle constantly and there is not only one key that I can use to access the bios settings.

  How can I regain access to this faulty machine to restore or repair the bios please?

• HP Pavilion G7 1316dx Notebook: BIOS update help

  I have a laptop running updated windows 10 how to update the bios? I still do not see an update for windows 10. So, how to upgrade the bios? Or if I should wait for all drivers to be supported with windows 10?

  If there is no update on your Support page, it means generally that no BIOS update is needed. I assume that you have the latest version of the BIOS on your list of Windows 8?

• Aspire m3420 bios update help

  Hello. I'm trying to update the bios on my aspire m3420 so that I can run an evga gtx 750ti. Current BIOS is P01 - A1 on a mobo aahd3-vc. I tried to use the updates from the website of acer but after reboot, flash does not stick. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  If your bios is P01 - A1, you as far as you can go. Notice P01 - A1 is not in the list of the Bios. P01 - A1L is, but this isn't your bios. You will also notice the size of the BIOS there are bigger than yours and the new Bios must be the exact size as yours to install.

• Latest version of the bios update help (dv6700)

  Hello, I have recently updated my OS to Windows 7 on my laptop Pavilion, which is a dv6700, with the number of product KW097EA #UUW and with an AMD processor. His version of bios is F.34, and I would like to know if this is the latest version of the bios. Unfortunately I can not find my model on the site, so I need your help. In addition, the last bios will allow me to install more ram? I currently have 2GB.

  Hello:

  Yes, F.34 is the latest version of the BIOS, and if you have installed, all right.

  I'll spare you to go through your laptop for parts of the Strip and throw in the trash if you try to Flash the BIOS after installing Windows 7.

  DON'T FLASH THE BIOS IF YOU HAVE INSTALLED WINDOWS 7.

  There is 100% chance of completely bricking your laptop if you do.

  Here is the link to the support page and driver for your specific model of laptop.

  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/WC/product?product=3717145&CC=US&DLC=en&LC=en&os=228&Query=KW097EA&sw_lang=&Tool=

  As long the BIOS of your PC is F.27 or newer, there is no reason that you can not install 4 GB of memory in your laptop right now.

  I have a dv6810us with the same hardware as yours and I am under W7 64-bit with 4 GB of memory (2 x 2 GB of PC2-6400), and it works fine.

  If you need Flash the BIOS (which you shouldn't ever need to), you will need to reinstall Vista and reinstall W7 flash.

• Portege Z835 - need help with BIOS update

  Hello.

  I have a Portege Z835, with a battery problem: do not load. The battery indicator says "3% connected load" but it doesn't load the battery.

  Some forums said that the solution is updating the Bios. I have a Bios Update v.1.60 ready to install. When I try to install, we get the message "the battery power is not enough.

  My power cord is still connected. If I unplug the power cord, the laptop is turned off.

  Please, what can I do?

  Thank you.

  F.

  To be honest I don't think it's the related issue of the BIOS. AFAIK battery must be charged, even if the laptop is turned OFF so why BIOS update if the battery can not be charged at all.

  To me that sounds like hardware related issue.

  How old is your Portege?
  Warranty is still valid?

  Maybe you should contact Toshiba service and ask for help or even their opinion.

• Satellite A500 - it gets stuck one second after the BIOS update

  I knew I shouldn't update BIOS unless I have problems. A message came Toshiba Bulletin Board and I was stupid enough to trust him and I have updated my BIOS. The update has been successful, my computer seems to work very well.

  Except, now when I try to watch a movie, I downloaded every 10 seconds or if it gets stuck for a second and then plays normally and it happens when I play music on itunes. Because I didn't have this problem before, I'm not accusing the update. Is there a way I can go back or how can I return to normal?

  Oh God, what have I done? :(

  You can try to update a sound/display drivers on the [page driver Toshiba | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp] Bios update should not cause a problem like yours, but who knows... (You can also try to load the default settings in the Bios)
  Updated version of itunes and try how movies on VLC and Kmplayer

  Hi dude

  That s a pity :(
  The update of the BIOS is always a tricky process and there is always a small piece of risk.
  Usually, if the BIOS update has failed then you need a help of a technician of the ASP.

  The point is that you would need an update of the traditional BIOS to reflash the chip for the BIOS again.
  But the Toshiba driver page provides only the victory of the BIOS which can be updated only from Windows OS-based.

  Therefore, you will need to contact a local ASP which might help you.

  Dude good luck

• Pavilion 15-ab137ca: stuck on the management of the BIOS screen after BIOS update

  A ran a BIOS update that was a solution on this forum to prevent the Startup Menu to appear whenever I start the machine. Said that he would change from F16 to F10. Now, he has been slain on the screen of the BIOS for 30 minutes management. The display shows, the system BIOS is updated. This update will take a few minutes to complete. Do not close or remove the external power supply to your computer during the process. Check the new BIOS image. Block 2048/2048. Progress at 100%. How long should I wait?

  Hey!

  I am pleased that you are in your laptop.

  What is the screen below as you talk?

  

  All HP and Compaq computers that were manufactured with 10 Windows can use Secure Boot. Secure startup is enabled by default on these computers.

  If the image above is actually what you are talking about, please take a look at the documentation for Secure Boot . You will see a section called disabling Secure Boot... This should help you with the start menu.

  I hope this helps!

  Please let me know!

  Have a great day!

• PLEASE HELP WITH THE BIOS UPDATE!

  Hello, I have a hp pavilion g6 - 1202sa laptop, I installed windows 7 (64-bit), I was wondering if I can update my bios of f.35 to f.43 without any problems?

  the reason why I ask because on another forum a guy said I have to uninstall windows 7 and install windows vista and then update my bios and after that re-install windows 7, if I don't like that while he says I will brick my phone.

  could you please let me know if this is true or is it aload of shit.

  Thank you

  Hello

  You can see on the HP document under this Bios version f.43 is supported for Windows 7 (both 32-bit or 64-bit versions).

  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-100657-1&cc=us&DLC=en&LC=en&OS=4063&product=5182525&sw_lang=

  The only point I would make, as there is always the potential for something to go wrong when the bios update, is unless the new version fixes a problem you already have, or add the features you need, I would not disturb no risk.

  Kind regards

• Satellite A660 - 18 BIOS update & fails (re-visited) HARD drive recovery

  Referring to an old thread from my friends...

  I tried earlier to update the BIOS of v1.80 for v1.90 (whether by the automatic update tool Service Station and the direct download of the update of the BIOS).

  Whenever the update of the BIOS ran, he abandoned arguing that the battery was low (it was not), alternating current was not on (it is) and the existing BIOS version was superior to the new version (it wasn't).

  The real problem seems to be that the version of the BIOS (as shown in "Toshiba HWSetup") is:

  + The BIOS version = V234567890. 00/00/00000000000 +.
  + Version EC = 1.80 +.

  However, in the Diagnostic PC Toshiba tool the BIOS version on the page of basic information is correctly reported as 1.80

  At the point where I couldn't be worth blat my disc with the original image and try again. I was hoping that Toshiba would set the BIOS update to fix the problem. Didn't happen.

  They released v2.00 BIOS in June 2011 and would not always up to date. So I backed up my data and tried to blat of the machine to factory State. What a nightmare...

  The recovery image doesn't work well at all!

  The first bit works (the original partition creation and image copy), but after the startup of Windows and the script factory Toshiba intervenes, all sorts of problems begin.

  First of all, the thing stuck several times in a process of "assessment of system performance. This happens in several phases of reboots because the drivers are installed. Then there's a bunch of bug script error messages and DMI analyze the errors you will need to click on ' close and do not report the crash "type dialog. What makes it more difficult is that the Toshiba factory configuration script sets up a blank page trying to see you on what the bureau is to be avoided. Even if you try to pass in the Manager of tasks to complete the process deadlocked, it gives you a few seconds grace before forcing the Office to lock and hide behind the white screen again. If you're quick and good time, you can stop the evaluation of performance at a standstill (I think it's just the thing to the Windows Experience score). Same thing to reject the other boxes of error...

  Finally, I arrived at the end of the script and the machine was built with all of the original software.

  The program HWSetup still reports the version of BIOS of nonsense and the PC Diagnostic tool always reports it correctly.

  The Service Station program now does not even start. It crashes with a message + "request the Toshiba Service Station could not initialize. Try to restart or reinstall the application. » +. I downloaded the last being on the website and installed... To be hosted later with the same message.

  Program update direct BIOS for v2.00 made his usual thing you ask that the current BIOS version is greater than 200 and abandonment.

  I even read in a FAQ that some recovery routines do not work correctly with more than 4 GB of RAM (I have 8 GB). So I did all of this once again with only 4 GB installed and the script was just as broken for 4 GB 8 GB.

  I ran PC complete diagnosis for machine test suite and it turned up nothing.

  A little confused now... Maybe time to log a failure while I have a few more months of warranty left. But the machine actually works, just can't update the BIOS. Would be my luck if a problem arose just after the warranty has expired, and they said 'just update the BIOS...

  In front of me, I 3 laptop years. Over the past three years, Toshiba has offered 3 BIOS updates. I don t care about it and still use the original version that I got with my laptop. I want to say, why change anything and start this risky If update everything works fine and it does.

  Several times I have read here that people write about the problems of updating the BIOS and damaged BIOS. This risk does not apply to me just having the latest version.

  Anyway, if you want to have all past orders on your laptop, it is without a doubt your legitimate right. In General, the BIOS updates are tested before Toshiba offers for download so I really put t understand why you have this kind of problems. The problem with the installation of recovery is also strange.

  A few months ago, a friend of mine bought A660 and I helped him create recovery DVDs, and we also tested the recovery procedure everything including the three options:
  Back to out-of-box state
  Recover without changing the hard drive partitions
  Get a custom size partition

  Everything worked perfectly so I m really confused about everything you write.

  Unfortunately, I can't help you with this. When I could have your laptop in front of me to see exactly what is happening, it will be much easier to understand all of this.
  I updated the BIOS on different laptops, and I got lucky because every time that everything was fine.

  Your laptop is guaranteed valid so I recommend you contact Toshiba service provider in your country and ask for assistance.
  What do you think about this?

• Satellite L40 - 12K - BIOS update failure

  Hi people,

  It is the second Toshiba laptop, I've managed to screw up. I don't know why, but it seems that Toshiba is especially prone to spectacular failure of BIOS.

  This laptop (Satellite L40 - 12K, short model PSL40E) has a bios made by FRIEND and Toshiba has an update on its Web site for windows that uses the tool of WinFlash.exe made by ASUS.

  The tool only works for 32-bit operating systems, and I had installed a 64-bit version of Windows, I could not pass the laptop.

  Then I thought: we will try to update the bios from MS-DOS, using a bootable flash drive!

  I went to the ASUS ftp site and downloaded the latest AFUDOS (2.41). This is a special version of the afudos FRIEND tool, specially designed for ASUS.

  I ran the tool under MS-DOS, and it will make sure the BIOS automatically confirmed that the binary file was compatible with the laptop model and automatically starts the process of flashing.

  But it crash in the phase of "flash erase". He was stuck there for HOURS, so I turned off the computer and tried to turn it back on.

  Not at all, the laptop won't turn. It does not even ANY SOUND. NO LIGHTS, NO NOISE, NO FAN, NOTHING.

  ABSOLUTELY AND COMPLETELY DEAD.

  So, there you have it. I have flashed dozens of computers (servers, laptops, workstations, etc.) in my life, and I've only had TWO failures.

  TWO of them were with Toshiba laptops. Geez, Toshiba is really the King of the failures of BIOS flashing!

  Hello

  I would never try update the Toshiba BIOS with a BIOS from other support pages for computer laptop manufacturer
  What to say; I found one from Toshiba victory of the BIOS and traditional BIOS Toshiba U.S. driver page:

  http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com

  Maybe you could try to Flash the BIOS using this version of BIOS
  If this is not possible, then only a service provider authorized Toshiba would be able to help you.

  By the way: I've had three different Toshiba notebooks: A210, U400, and now Tecra A11.
  The BIOS update has worked perfect for all series...

• In vain after BIOS update that isn't the Satellite A60 boot

  I have an A60 and I have a problem with it now.
  It does not work. I did a BIOS update and the machine turns off, so I then turned back on it and it is stuck in start mode and would have turned off yet again, so I removed the battery and it exploded.
  Now the machine does not start and no led will indicate.

  Please can someone help?

  HEY Warren,

  Usually, when a BIOS update is interrupted, it causes the CMOS become none-functional chip. This will result in the laptop being unable to start up so that the update can be tried again.

  The only option at this point is to take (or send) the laptop to authorized service center which has the necessary equipment for re-flashing the CMOS with the latest BIOS chip.

  Kind regards
