BIOS update is safe for the W10 Y50-70?

http://support.Lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/Lenovo-y-series-laptops/Y50-70-Noteboo...

^ is this security update to install on a Y50 with 10 Windows Home edition?

If you are on Win10 already that sounds like her.

I wouldn't install it.

-until his checked 100% good

-the installer packed is also 100% compatible Win10.

I think that someone he bricked system here because of this last point read here last week. You also have the latest MS updates to win 10 for it to work. If it does not install completely you file systems and may be compromised or lost with no way to get them off the coast.

I repeat. Wait to be sure and see other discussions on the issues with laptops there who came back to an old bios.

    You are welcome.

    BIOS update instructions are on the download page of Dell BIOS.

    Follow the procedures carefully, as a corrupted or failed BIOS flash may "brick" the motherboard.

  • Will there be an update to FROYO for the Motorola Milestone?

    Hello motorola is when the update 2.2 for the next step?

    It is noted to find on https://supportforums.motorola.com/community/manager/softwareupgrades

    Please give us an indication of type T3 or T4 or something like that

    everyone is left in the dark do same motorola is very pleased with this update (we the users of your products are in)

    Return to the obstruction, I see.

    A simple "Yes, it will be" even if no date is better than the plain ignoring the requests of clients, or how Motorola Europe is all shot on facebook. You have not yet learned a thing about support customer I see.

    On the other hand Motorola himself published the Milestone as 'Flash ready', and which requires 2.2 (Froyo). How do you feel that Motorola will feel all have to manage dozens of lawsuits around the world about false advertising?

    Hey, we could still use this forum to coordinate prosecution. It is not against the rules of the forum, is it?

  • Satellite 4090 BIOS number - message "ready for the update BIOS... ' appears

    Hi all! Excuse my poor English because I'm french.

    A friend gives me his cell phone (a Satellite exactly 4090CDS) because he had a problem.
    In fact, the problem is that when I turn on the computer, I have a single message (not even the toshiba red logo) that is "ready for the update of the BIOS. Place the BIOS update floppy in the drive and press any key when you are ready to move forward."

    So I go to the french site of toshiba, in the BIOS download, I find that I must download this update: http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tools/bios/satellite/4030-4060-100/bios_820.zip

    OK, I download and unpack it on a floppy disk and I start the laptop with the disjette, he said that the update has been successful and it restarts automatically.
    This time, the Red toshiba logo appears, but then I have a black screen with a message:

    Bad checksum (CMOS) *.
    Check the system. Then press the [F1] key.

    And after that, I can't do anything, not even, press F1. If I restart the laptop, I myself meet once more with the first message «Ready for the update of the BIOS...» "and it's still the same.

    If someone could help me understand what the problem is, that would be fine.
    Thank you.

    Bastien.

    It sounds as if your CMOS chip has a problem. It is possible to s that the CMOS battery has failed and the BIOS settings are lost.
    Maybe the RTC battery is empty. In this case, you should connect the AC adapter to charge the battery of the CCF.
    Please note that the RTC battery (CMOS battery) can be fluffed once the main laptop battery has been recharged. In this case, the charge process may take several hours.

    But if after this long process of load this message appears again then I guess the battery is dead.
    I suggest that you only contact your ASP closest to get your phone checked.

  • Update BIOS version 1.55 for the hard-to-find S540!

    I discovered by chance that today there is an update of the BIOS for the Thinkpad S540 at the link:

    http://support.Lenovo.com/en_GB/downloads/detail.page?&docid=DS038373

    This is the version 1.55, released on 12 May.

    .. .and even if I go to drivers in general download page for the selected as the portable S540 concerned and looking at the BIOS available in the list of available software and drivers, it is still the old one version 1.54 of 12 March and not the new BIOS version 1.55 may 12 as in the link above!

    I think that there is a problem of updating web pages at the Lenovo site downloads?

    It seems that Lenovo support web pages are updated now so it's resolved.

  • 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
