    He tried to update pavilion dv6t-7000 me gives error message:

    .. . How update the bios?

    You don't Flash the BIOS unless you get the upgrade for the BIOS of the page of CTO Quad Edition Notebook PC drivers HP ENVY dv6t-7300. Since there is no upgrade BIOS listed on this page, there is no way to upgrade the BIOS. Depending on the exact systemboard and the OS that is installed on your computer, the HP part number will be something like "682174-501", which means "Windows 8 Standard / 2.0 GB of discrete video memory / 45 Watt CPU. The comparable numbers for the dv6t-7000 series is 682174-001, which means "Windows 7 / 2.0 GB of discrete video memory / CPU 45 watts.

    The MAIN of the BIOS is different version, the routine will not allow BIOS flash. IF you force it, you can make your computer does not work. DO NOT try to Flash a BIOS that does not support your computer page.

    I want to update BIOS and who have already downloaded and the file dezipped. This file that I copied to a floppy disk. In the description they say I have to restart the computer and press a certain key (F12 or the left of the space bar). But it did not work. Does anyone know how to do this?

    on this model you do not need to press F12 or another key. Just unzip the packege BIOS on a blank floppy disk, reboot the machine and make sure it boots from the floppy disk. The upgrade of the BIOS will be done automatically.

  • Tecra M2 - updated BIOS is not supported

    Hello; I have a Tecra M2 I want to update BIOS.

    I downloaded it from the Toshiba site, specified for this model. But when I unzip in my book, there is a message that says "Bios Update v. 3.2.8. This computer is not supported. But my laptop is a 32-bit computer, and there is nothing strange about this... What is going on?

    I need a help. (It's only a simple update BIOS...)

    Thank you

    J.

    Hello

    The Bios Update v. 3.2.8 error message. This computer is not supported"might appear because the DMI information that contains the name of the laptop and other details of s notebook is wrong.
    In this case the DMI must be updated.

    The other reason why you are not able to update the BIOS, it is this tool called common Modules is not installed on your laptop.
    So install it and check if you can update the BIOS

    Last but not least, the reason could be the preinstalled OS, I hope you are using Win XP in order to update the BIOS

    Thank you very much!

    BIOS

    Hello!

    Yes, it's the good BIOS because it s also for your model (Satellite 2450-101).

    A BIOS update is an upgrade of RAM is not necessary. The BIOS has nothing to do with the maximum RAM capacity.
    Satellite 2450-101 supports up to 1 GB, type PC2100 DDR - RAM.

  • Want DV6-7300ea problem of updating Bios with SSD

    Hello

    Recently, I swapped my HARD drive to the STRANGE Bay and put an SSD in the startup location.  Everything works fine until it was update the BIOS to the new version F.26.  After having downloaded the update and run the .exe, the computer restarts and the normal blinking screen comes up - everything seems as it should and checks the update. Then, the system reboots and what I see is a black screen with the fan turns. He accomplishes this task for 30 seconds, then stops and goes through the same routine. I left for an hour, but no progress so I removed the battery and swapped the HARD drive in the main Bay. Put running the laptop and it displays the screen "Boot Block update" and continued to work as usual.

    No idea why he won't not on-screen "update Boot Block" with the SSD in as peripheral to start?

    When you start the update of the BIOS ROM file performs a check of the configuration of the laptop. The coding of the met the STRANGE unexpected update and configuration SSD as your laptop went into a loop. When you have returned the laptop on its original config that apparently satisfied with the softpaq update BIOS and completed its task. Now, we know the results of the portable non-standard configurations on the BIOS updates.

    Thanks for posting this has happened and the final result.

  • Satellite L750D - update BIOS 2.1 and its problem

    Hello

    I have little problem. I was downloaded from your website 2.1 BIOS for Toshiba Satellite L750D (PSK32E).

    I have been updating BIOS 2.1 and start the problem with the sound. When I start the game, music or else minutes 2 first sound plays correctly but then it stops without reason. No noise at all. I've been reinstalled op system but the problem is still there.

    Sound works for 2 minutes only then is completely off. Each application to start with sound plays 2 minutes and stop all silent is. I did a probe on my laptop the mother she s a computer portable twin. I have updated bios same problem 2 minutes and then no sound. My OS is win 8 64 pro my laptop mother is with win 7 x 64 premium.

    Two BIOS updated ver 2.1 on L750D and the problem is the same. Please fix the BIOS.

    The BIOS seems to be very old. I was released nearly 1.5 years ago, so to be honest, I doubt that his and BIOS problem.

    I had the similar problem with my other laptop equipped with a Realtek sound card.
    The sound appeared after connection and remove the headphone jack
    But I could solve this latest installation updated audio driver the Realtek driver page.

    But it seems that your Satellite does not support Realtek audio chip but the Conexant audio chip.
    Therefore, the solution could not be useful for you.

    However, I think that you need to update the audio driver. I recommend you google for driver Conexant SmartAudio HD and test the latest version of the driver available.
    On the internet, I find the Conexant SmartAudio HD driver version 8.65.9.51 for Win 7 / 8 Win / Win 8.1
    Not quite sure if this is the latest version, but you can test it.

    To manually update your driver:

    1. go into the Device Manager (right click on my computer, choose manage and then find Device Manager in the left panel)
    2. right click on the device you want to update and choose Update driver software
    3. choose Select the location of the new driver manually and navigate to the folder where you downloaded the driver

    Hello

    I need quick information. I want to update my BIOS. The current version is F.00 - 03/07/2013 and I want to update the F.27 Rev.A - version 25/07/2016. However, Win 10 (which is the operating system I use) is not listed as an operating system supported for this BIOS (latest version for Win Win 8.1 support 64 bit). I would like to know if I can still download and use the version of the 25/07/2016 F.27 Rev.A BIOS even if the latest OS is win 8.1 64 bit, while I use Win 10 64 bit?

    Thank you.

    Updated the BIOS for the Chipset and is not serious if the unit has WIN 8 or 10 to WIN.

    As it says BIOS-Basic Input Output System
