• Satellite C50-A230 - how to change the settings of the BIOS to dual boot

  Hello

  Toshiba c50-a230 (PSCG8V), 32-bit win10

  then a classic question... I want to install ubuntu alongside with windows 10 and im stuck in the first State

  So how do you go into the bios settings and configuration options of dualboot?

  Thank you.

  I think first of all you need to create a Toshiba recovery media before you upgrade or install other systems.
  The recovery disc can be created using the preinstalled software "Toshiba Recovery creator environment."

  So after this environment has been created, you could improve the system of Windows 10.
  After that, you will need to create a partition for installing Linux.

  I could recommend a freeware program called Gparted.
  You can create a bootable USB key containing Gparted to create an additional partition.

  Note: in the BIOS of the changes must be done in order to start from external sources (DVD or USB). Secure boot must be disabled and in the event that the new system will not support UEFI, the boot mode must be changed (from UEFI to CSM)

  But as far as I know Ubuntu supports UEFI, it should be possible to install this OS as part of UEFI mode.

• New W510, update the BIOS - black screen on startup - guaranteed?

  Hi all!

  I got a new W510 and decided to update the BIOS via the executable Windows 7 provided by Lenovo for their support-web. The program is run properly (all green checkmarks), the machine has been restarted and then stopped and started again - but she never stopped showing the "ThinkPad" screen POST. The machine started throwing his fans after some time and the machine felt hot enough it is up to the right. I waited a bit (say 4-5 minutes) if there was some additional BIOS update which took place, but nothing happened after a while, I decided to stop it. Now when I boot, the screen is all black.

  This will cover in the included warranty? It must be, right?

  Sorry for my late reply. As I think it is clear from my earlier post, there was still no way to load default BIOS that the screen went black as soon as I started the machine.

  Two days later from my first message I sent it in for repair. Almost 4 weeks after and TWO motheboards (first one was apparently DOA) later, the machine works now. As it seems, Lenovo had some problems for spare parts quickly enough because it took almost 2-3 weeks just to get the first map of mother (DOA).

  Anyway, even if it took some time, I can now enjoy my new machine

• Satellite A200 (PSAE0C-AH308C) - after the BIOS black screen update

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite (model No. A200; Part No. PSAE0C - AH308C) and to install Windows XP on a version already corrupted Vista (which had 4 partitions, that have been corrected, erased, then reformatted in a solid block). Now, I have installed all the appropriate drivers off Toshiba Canada support site...

  Everything worked, but I wanted to see in Windows (since I just got this computer) if everything was in place and working normally until I installed Ubuntu... Then I did the update to the BIOS flash. The program is supported in two formats, one for Vista and one for XP... for XP has a more high at 5.20 and Vista BIOS version the 1.80 revision of BIOS... that are marked as being updated by the Toshiba site. I opted to download the latest version of the BIOS.

  Things got ugly as soon as I unzipped the self-extracting program. First of all he said he could not find a .dll file (even if it is clear from there), so that seemed as if it started to Flash the BIOS but has not finished (it was just what happened when I opened the program)... I think he got to the ROM of compensation but did not have any code in there... Windows attempted to close the program because he did not respond, and I tried to take the program... had the same .dll error, but this time, the screen of the program was just gray...

  Given that this program is not Flash the BIOS unless the user selects the button "Flash BIOS", I have reason to believe that it was a bug in the program, or a combination of it and Windows comes to interfere (no program were running at the time, while he was supposed to be a dedicated flash). I can only flash in the Win.

  Now, I rebooted the computer, twice... the screen turns black, the HARD disc spins, the DVD drive has done his usual clicking sound when the computer starts, but it seems to stop as there is no BIOS entact.

  Can I replace the BIOS chip? There is no way for me to access the BIOS at all.

  Thanks for any help on this

  Hello

  Unfortunately, the BIOS update has failed and now BIOS is damaged. For this reason, you cannot start and use your laptop. I agree with Luke. Please contact nearest Toshiba authorized maintainer and ask for help. Talk with them and I am sure that you will find the best solution to this problem.

  Satellite A200 is quite long on the market and it is hard to believe that updating the BIOS on the Canadian page may have a bug. All updates are tested and used by millions of users and service providers. If there is something wrong, I do not believe that this update will be available on the page of public support.

  In any case, contact the nearest service provider and explain the situation. Believe me this is the best thing you can do now.

  Good luck!

  clint341,
  Thanks for posting on the Microsoft Answers forum.  We cannot guide you more precisely by changing the BIOS settings that the BIOS settings are specific to your motherboard.  However, most (if not all) parameters of the BIOS have an option to restore the default BIOS (sometimes called "default opitimized").  It may be an option in the menu that you highlight, then press enter or it can be assigned to an F key and States at the bottom of the screen, press F? for the default settings.  I hope this helps.  If you are still not able to reset, check with the manufacturer of PC for more information about the BIOS.

• Tecra A10 - cannot change the settings of the BIOS with supervisor password enabled

  Hello
  I activated a supervisor for 1.50 acpi BIOS password.

  Since then, I am not able to change the settings (for example etc. - the right of the screen of the BIOS boot order does no more).
  I access the bios with pressing ESC on the boot process, then F1 when prompted "" check system, then press [F1] key. Problem is that I don't ask the supervisor password.
  There should be a prompt for the supervisor password, but it's not. So I am not able to connect as a supervisor.
  I know I can manually change the boot sequence by pressing F12 during startup, but this strict solve my problem.

  THX in advance
  elitecamper

  Have you tried to update the BIOS? On the Toshiba site, I can find a newer version that you have right now. Check it!

  Before setting a supervisor password load default settings in the BIOS and then you can set the password and try again. Maybe it works.

• How to change the settings of the BIOS on Satellite L30-134?

  I have a toshiba l30-134 and I can not for love nor money to update or to unlock my BIOS. Yes before you repeat the usual speal on laptops is limited. I know they are!
  BUT... the BIOS on my laptop is, at the end of the day an interchangeable accordingly with appropriate tools and integrated program.

  It is well known that large computer makers lock end-users to access these options to stop their valuation there own bought and paid for PC, so that they can not go out and buy a cheaper machine, and improve it. It is also a common misconception that laptops are not expandable. That's what they want you to hear. It is not true. OK, so you can't plug loads of PCI cards or graphics in it, which would defeat the object anyway.

  Extensible components in a laptop ARE IN FACT evolving for example, memory and HARD drive.
  There are several options that I would see in my BIOS, I know they are there, and I know that they have been hidden.

  Why, oh why can't get rights to access these options? After all, he has bought and paid for, and if I want to tinker with it why I shouldn't. She belongs to me now.

  I have a few tools that will change these settings in the BIOS, Phoenix BIOS editor and WinPhlash, but again, I have not found a downloadable BIOS for my machine. But believe me when I do I will be changing the options in the BIOS. And I hope I'll be able to put together one guide for others who also believe that they can change it machines anyway they see fit.

  Watch this space!

  You can have a BIOS custom-made on your laptop, but not through an official site like Toshiba.
  I do not understand what options you believe was hidden from the normal user like you and me.
  In addition, I doubt that you can improve the performance of your laptop by changing the Firmware into something else.

  Once a stable Firmware is made to a system, it is preserved and everyone (manufacturer and user) are happy
  with the result.

• Changing the settings of the BIOS with Satellite L505D-S5006

  Hello! I am trying to access my BIOS to change some settings in it, but when I enter the BIOS Setup I can't change anything in there (everything is greyed out) and the options are minimal. Currently, my BIOS version is 1.0.0. I tried to download the needed update for it, but when I install and try to run it, it says "cannot retrieve information from the system BIOS. BCPSYS block signature not found. Error code:-100. »

  I am downloading from this page here: [http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_bios.jsp?service=EU]
  * Product type: * for laptop
  * Family: * satellite
  * Series of products: * Satellite L series
  * Model: * Satellite L505D
  * Short model: * (for some reason any the only option here is PSLT9E, but my PSLV6U reading on the bottom of the laptop.) This has something to do with not updated to the correct version, I wonder?)

  So I have to skip the last step and [http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/tracker.jsp?file=http%3a%2f%2fsupport1.toshiba-tro.de%2ftedd-files2%2f0%2fbios-20100510134014.zip] appears so I downloaded and installed and that's where the problems start.

  In short, there is an another easier way to enter a BIOS where I can change the settings? Or what I need to find a different BIOS update?

  Thanks in advance for the help!

  The whole story is a bit strange.
  Every new notebook comes without any limitations of the BIOS, and when you buy a new laptop, for that you must have full access to all the available BIOS settings.
  So the question is:
  Have you bought this laptop like new?
  Is - the first time you try to change something in the BIOS?
  You may have defined user password (Toshiba Assist > course > user password)?

  You can use Toshiba hardware configuration tool to change the settings (settings of the BIOS)?

  I want to increase to play better games.
  How to change through the bios I don't know.
  Help me pls.
  
  Thank you

  The days of being able to change RAM in BIOS went Bye Bye a few years ago. It was back in the day.

  You can't make changes to the video RAM settings in BIOS.

  You can reduce the resolution if you want to increase performance in a menu of own game options, but at a cost of resolution.

• Ability to remotely change the settings of the BIOS on the Thinclients T610?

  Hi all!

  We use thin clients HP t610 for digital signage and we have deployed more than 40 years in the field. They seem to work just fine for our needs.

  After a few failures caused by construction crews an i've had phyiscally visit each sign to reactivate them. Since then we have deployed the t610s with the ' after the loss of power = on "setting in the BIOS. This seems to fix the problem and they light up immediately once the power is restored. Now that we have solved our problem, I would like to change the client deployment light setting as well.

  Is there a way I can change the settings of the BIOS on the t610 remotely? Or do I have to visit each change them manually and the machine with a keyboard? Some are installed in small spaces which are no easy access to remotely change would be better.

  Thanks for your help!

  Depending on what OS you have on the t610 you can download BIOS utilities for this on the HP website: http://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/public/psi/swdHome/?cc=us&cc=us&lang=en&lang=en&sp4ts.oid=5226817&ac.admitted=1404312731554.876444892.492883150

• Custom settings does not? Black screen!

  After doing windows updates and reboot my laptop, it allows me to connect, but instead to load my desktop screen, it turns just black. A small box will appear that says "custom settings (not answer) ' I'm lost. What is the problem and how to fix it?

  A small box will appear that says "custom settings (not answer).

  Interesting.   The part 'black screen' of your symptom could mean that explorer.exe has crashed and not able to restart.   I don't know why you might then see this second symptom, except that it sounds like something that could be a part of the explorer.exe recovery procedure, for example it reminds me of a procedure that automatically never came to be reviewed when W8 was first installed.

  In any case, even if you have a black screen, you can try to start the Task Manager and use it to start other things.   First of all, it would be useful to make a difference on the issue of whether you have a 'black' screen or a 'screen '.   For example if there is a fringe of light around the edges and it's just quite dark, but not as dark as it would be if turned off, screen "in white" could be a more accurate description.   Then you might be able to see things if they were added, which would be less likely, if she was black.   For example, you can move your mouse and see a pointer moves on the dark?   So I think this would be an example of a screen "empty."

  And then, to start the Task Manager press Ctrl + Alt + Del and the use of the Task Manager item in the menu hotkey to rise.   You can then use its Prcesses tab to see if the Windows Explorer appeared there.   If you can use the TM file, do not run... command to start typing here: explorer.exe

  However, another possibility that some people have been able to see is their primary screen inexplicably switched to a second monitor ghost.   Then pressing Win - P, CursorUp and Enter to try to change the setting of the Second screen can be a procedure simpler and more effective to try to get something on the monitor that you are watching.

• Is it possible to adjust the settings of the BIOS via a command line?

  Hello

  is there a possibility to set the parameters of the Toshiba BIOS on a command-line tool?
  We have hundreds of Toshiba laptops and want to enable Wake On Lan.

  I know there hwsetup, but as much as I know this GUI does not accept parameters.
  We want to propagate the settings again on a script.

  Any solution for this?

  Thanx

  > is there a possibility to set the parameters of the Toshiba BIOS on a command-line tool?
  Something like which is unknown to me and I doubt that this could be possible.
  As you say there is a preinstalled Toshiba HWSetup tool which can be used to change some BIOS of some settings. But what a way to change the settings of the BIOS to the Windows operating system.
