• BIOS update killed my Satellite Pro A210-1AZ

  Hello

  Today Tempro gave me an alert that there is a new update of the BIOS (bios-20100215113621). I duly installed in the usual way. During the restart, the machine came with a message from sum of CONTROL INCORRECTE.

  While I was reading the message machine gave a sharp sqeak and dies quickly. It won't restart or answer.

  Toshiba may explain why they distribute updates of Slayers and offer on how to get my machine back to life.

  Two identical machines so we leave my wife running on the old bios.

  The one you have any good ideas?

  Hello

  This s pity companion
  Looks like the BIOS update procedure has failed, which means that you need a help of a technician of the ASP
  I hope that the ROM module was not too bad. In most cases, should be reflash the ROM BIOS again

  In any case, this procedure needs a crisis BIOS disk that would help to Flash the module.

• ENVY 13-D046TU: F.35Ap1 BIOS update kills port HDMI on ENVY laptop

  After installation of the firmware update marked Softpaq number: SP75152, F.35Ap1 Version now four of our laptops (13 "and 14" ENVY ENVY) have a HDMI port not working. The external screens are 'no signal '.

  We spent a lot of time with the help of HP (via Hong Kong, we found ourselves in India). Remote control sessions. All a waste of time. The update of the BIOS is faulty, no system restore cannot solve this problem.

  Same day (June 13, 2016) one of our laptops automatically installed this update of the BIOS with the HP Support Assistant and killed the HDMI port.

  A. is there a way to acquire and install the previous BIOS?

  When can b. we expect a new update of the BIOS?

  C. how the hell did this update of the BIOS pass test? -> 4 / 4 updated computers laptops have a broken HDMI port. We have 7 other laptop on the left who are fortunately not updated.

  Hi there @BugFinderand @DebVancouver.

  Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!  It's a good place to find the help you need, other users, HP experts and other support staff. From what I understand, bothl of you experience the same problem with HDMI after a BIOS update.  I'm happy to help you with this.

  I would, if possible, that each of you try the laptops HP - restore the BIOS to a restoration to the having previously worked BIOS.  The main purpose is to return you to a working state. If this method works for you, obviously do not install BIOS update again.

  Edit: Bugfinder reported that restoration, the method of BIOS didn't work for him, but he had to do several times (4 times in at least one case). I guess you could say that it is true to its name, and I thank very you much for the comments.

  Please let me know if it works for you and if not let me know if there is an error message any. If this does not solve your immediate problem, please mark this message as a solution. Bravo would be appreciated as well.

• Equium A60: After BIOS update device will beep several times and turns off

  Hello

  I downloaded the windows BIOS update for my Equium A60 (dated 11/15/05) and ran the executable by following the instructions, after ensuring that the current AC has been connected, etc.. The update has got a little more to halfway when the computer turns off suddenly.

  Now when I try to turn back on it just a few beeps and turns off again. It seems to me that the BIOS is screwed. Is there anything I can do to get my machine to run?

  Thank you
  Phil

  Hi Phil,

  Unfortunately, it seems that if the BIOS of your laptop is corrupted. Unfortunately, he didn't there has no easy way for you to correct yourself and you will need to take the phone to your nearest Toshiba Service agent who has the necessary specialized equipment to reflash your CMOS with a new BIOS chip.

  Kind regards

• Equium A210 - after that set BIOS to update the DVD player has stopped working

  I tried the program fixme Microsoft who does not work, upper and lower register isn't here ether in regedit.
  Someone at - it solutions for getting the DVD drive working again?

  Thank you

  Hello!

  The CD/DVD drive is listed in Device Manager? You see an error code?
  If the drive is listed in Device Manager, you should try to remove it, and then restart the laptop.

  Try to load the default settings in the BIOS.

  Have you tried to remove the upper and lower filters by yourself? Here is the solution from Microsoft:

• Equium A210 - after update BIOS problems connect to MSN Live Messenger

  Hello

  I just installed the latest update of the Bios for my Equium A210, as has been the first time results attempted this \i watched carefully and everything seems to go correctly but the laptop is restarted, it beeps and showed a checksum error, I chose the option to reboot with 'Default settings'

  Since that I got problems to connect to MSN Live Messenger and I wondered if this might be something to do with the Bios Update, it is also possible to 'come back' to the old Bios somehow?

  Thank you
  Lee

  Hello

  your question isn't really a related problem of the machine. The "Checksum Error" is normal after each update BIOS since the checksum of the BIOS which consists the BIOS settings and the version of the BIOS is not correct due to a modified version of BIOS.
  So, the next time that you update your BIOS you will get a "BIOS checksum error" again. Worry not Don t, it s nothing serious.

  With regard to your Messenger:
  1. uninstall the Messenger
  2. download the latest version from the MSN site
  3. install a new
  4. have fun

  Welcomes ;)

• Equium A210-1AS - it gets hot after BIOS update

  Hey, I was wondering if anyone can help here...

  Currently have a Toshiba Equium A210-1AS with BIOS version 1.80 worm 1.00PARTTBL 08/04/2008.

  Given that BIOS has been updated for a long time in this version 1.80 the computer became hot very quickly and therefore the laptop performance declined.
  I looked on the Toshiba support site and upgrade only version 2.00 was not compatible with this laptop.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated. Short model number is PSAFJE
  Thank you

  Hello

  I checked the site Web of Toshiba and I didn't see any BIOS update for satellite A210 PSAFJE. This means that an update of the BIOS was never marketed for this laptop, normally.

  To me it sounds like that you have updated the BIOS with one version for another Equium A210. So, you should go to an authorized service provider. Technicians can install the right version of BIOS for you (downgrade).

  Good bye

• Equium A210-1AS - after update BIOS screen no longer works

  I tried to find the same problem but impossible.

  I had to reinstall Windows Vista after mistakes with programs (recovery was useless so install fress was necessary) and everything worked fine. I downloaded all the drivers and updates section of drivers Toshiba, I installed the ATI graphics driver, then update the BIOS.
  While the closed laptop, now when I turn it on, the fan on the works of graphics card, battery, power and load turns on but the screen remains off (not illuminated). I tried an external monitor and the same problem again. As the screen worked fine until the update im guessing its something that the BIOS has done, or the graphics update.

  TOSHIBA SATELLITE A210 - 1AS
  PSAFJE
  -AMD Turion 64 X 2 Dual-Core Mobile Technology TL-58-
  Genuine Windows® Vista® Home Premium edition-

  2 048 (1 024 + 1 024) MB of RAM DDR2 (667 MHz)-
  15.4 "TFT display 1280 x 800

  Thanks to all who can help.

  To me, it sounds like the update of the BIOS's not on your laptop. If the BIOS update fails more often than computer start doesn t more you can see anything on the screen but you can hear the fan, etc.

  In any case, you can try this workaround: remove the battery and the AC adapter. Wait an hour and then reconnect the two devices. Now try to start Notepad and hope this works ;)

  If it doesn't work, you should contact the nearest authorized service provider. Technicians can try to reflash the ROM module

  Good luck!

• Satellite A210 - 17l BIos update to take care of advanced format HARD drive problem

  Hi all

  Really hoping someone can help me with this.

  My old HDD not was not so I cloned the entire disc before it failed. -Just in time, too.

  I ordered a new drive - it's a WD scorpio black - Advanced format.

  Unfortunately I can't get my picture on this new album.

  Also, I am unable to do a reinstall with the original restore also cd because it doesn't have service pack 1 and that means that it can't recognize the HD.

  In any case id prefer to be able to restore my image and not make a re-install when even if possible.

  So my question is this:

  Y at - it an update of the bios I can ask my another pc version 2.00 is available which will include options to change the options of ide drive - ahci?

  It's the only solution I can think of-bearing in mind I do not have an operating system installed, so the alignment tools are not an option as another fix. -Fast technology of storage Intel drivers do not work, because I have an AMD athlon processor.

  So is there any BIOS I can Flash my computer with to activate the options mentioned?

  I have a method to Flash the bios with a BONE, so this isn't a problem.

  Also other suggestions for workaround on this more than welcome.

  Thanks :))

  Hello

  Update BIOS don t help you. To my knowledge, it does not add additional options such as a switch between AHCI and compatible mode.
  In addition, you can use ANY BIOS. You must use the BIOS that came out for the model of laptop. But as I said, this isn't a solution.

  In addition, the image of Toshiba already contains all the drivers in order to install the system. It s any SP1 isn t the image part.

  I guess you're talking about Vista OS, given that the laptop came with pre-installed Vista OS. http://www.Toshiba.co.UK/discontinued-products/Equium-A210-17I/

  I recommend you format the HARD drive first.
  Use a tool called Gparted. You can create a bootable USB key containing this tool.
  This allows to start Notepad in order to format the HARD drive.

• EQUIUM U400 BIOS update link broken

  Hello

  I am trying to download the update of the Bios for my Equium U400 (dated 4 November), but the link seems broken. I have hunted high and low for a way to contact Toshiba about this but couldn't find anything useful.

  Does anyone have any ideas as to where I may be able to find an appropriate bios update?

  See you soon.

  Hello

  I think that this could be a temporal server problem and I think that this should be fixed in next time
  You should try to download this BIOS later

• Possible update graphics card on Equium A210

  Hello
  Once again
  I was wondering if it was possible to update the graphics card in the Equium A210 for a better graphics card or how to make the most frankly graphics when you play online are shocking and the man in the shop lie seems to me :(

  Sorry mate, but there is no possibility to upgrade the graphics card built into your machine, as the graphics card is "wired", which means that the integrated graphics chip is soldered on the motherboard.

  So, you could upgrade RAM HDD & to increase performance, but who are the only options to get more performance out of your machine.

• BIOS update failed with the Satellite A210-17Z

  I was asked by Tempro to update the BIOS of my laptop Satellite A210-17Z.
  I agreed but the laptop turns off before completing the update of the BIOS. As a result, I can no longer boot my computer.

  Looking for a solution on the internet, I have read that there is a possibility of creating a crisis recovery disk. I tried to do with the Phoenix crisis package, creating a crisis with a disk recovery disk and so on.

  When you try to Flash the BIOS and the start-up of the machine, I was pretty convinced to succeed as the system did start reading the disk for about 2 minutes... but nothing happened.

  I would like to know if anyone has experience and advice to help me recover my laptop.
  I was told that I should try with the original version of the BIOS (the one I got when I bought the computer) but I do not know how to find it because I don't know what version I had at the beginning.

  Hello

  To be honest, I think Tempro is the worst app Toshiba :-(that prompts users to update the Bios and after failure of the Bios. In this forum, you can find numerous threads about the failure of the Bios. He recommended to contact the ASP (SAV) to reflash it. You can read and ask other users how to recover the Bios Phoenix:

• Equium A210-1as turns off during the Bios flash

  Hello group,

  My computer laptop girls off for a flash bios because of blocked fan (dog hairs dust etc.) and its fried bios chip.
  I think that there is a partition on the Bios chip which can upgrade the bios in a critical state of flash using combinations of keys.

  I tried all of this and have a laptop dead yet.
  I contacted someone on the net that sells preloaded Bios chips and instructions to replace them, but I must first of all identify the chip on the card.
  Is there any reading that can identify it for me on a toshiba Equium A210-1as... psafje-005005ks

  Thanks for any help Paul G...

  Hi mate

  Usually it s is not necessary to replace the BIOS ROM chip on the motherboard.
  In most cases, the ROM module has to be reflashed again.
  It seems that the module ROM was not properly flashed and the process interrupted
  The technician of the ASP can reflash the module using a disc of the BIOS crisis.

  I recommend you to get in touch with the guys from the ASP in your country and ask reflash BIOSES.

  Good luck

• Equium A60 BIOS update: what is the Boot Mode?

  Due to problems with my graphics ATI I have to do a BIOS update. To do my computer (Equium A60 PSA67E) apparently needs to be in mode 'start-up', NOT 'repeat mode '. In a previously sent forum somebody said the computer just "should be turned off" but I'm still not sure of how go to this mode. Is it just a case to go to the start menu, click on shut down the computer and turn off the computer again? But how do you know when it is in mode 'start '?
  Question: How do in boot mode? (I tried the update in 'safe' mode and it does not work)

  Hello

  Boot mode is meaning stop the laptop (BONE).
  It is important that the laptop is not in stand mode or hibernation mode.
  You just simply close the unit. That s all ;)

• Need Win7 BIOS update for Satellite A210 - 16G (PSAELE)

  Hello

  I can't find the new BIOS update that includes SLIC 2.1 for my Satellite A210 - 16G (PSAELE) table.
  I found "ACPI BIOS Flash version 2.00 for Satellite A215 (PSAFGU/PSAFHU)" (link: http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/modelContent.jsp?ct=DL&os=&category=&moid=1871687& rpn = PSAFGU & modelFilter = A210-ST1616 & SelCategorie = 2756709 & selFamily = 1073768663), but I'm not sure, which is suitable for my laptop model. It is mentioned in the list of the applicable models A210-ST1616. It is compatible with my laptop Satellite A210 series model for?

  Also I find this link to download BIOS: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_bios.jsp?service=EU. Can be here is the answer to the question of mine?

  People, please help with suggestions?

  Hi eldorado24,

  Satellite A210 - 16G (PSAELE) belongs to the European models because it s listed on the page of Toshiba Europe. This means that the Australian page BIOS update will not work and it s listed for the other models (PSAFGU/PSAFHU). If this update is not done for your laptop.

  On the European (http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_bios.jsp) page, you can search for newer BIOS version:
  Laptop > Satellite > Satellite a series > Satellite A210 > PSAELE
