Corrupt BIOS on Satellite L870-141

Hello

I have a Satellite L870 - 141 (PSKBLE). I recently updated my BIOS to the latest version. (1.60).
Installation completed successfully and everything worked fine. After a week or two, the alt key is not stuck.
System reboot didn't help. Restoring a previous backup has not helped.
After trying several things, I discovered a way to unlock the tab key. When the function StickyKeys is turned on, I have to press the FN key first, then the F5 key. But when I rebooted the system, the alt key is stuck again.
It is not a physical alt key stuck, because when I "open" it, I can use all the keys once again, including the ALT keys

When I access the bios by pressing F2, the bios will open, but I can't use one key! I have to use the power button to exit the bios. Therefore, I think that the bios is damaged.

Does anyone have a solution for this problem?
Or anyone know how to pass the bios system? (I don't find an earlier official version of the bios)

Note: When I use the program HWsetup and activate the standard F1 - F12 function, I can't "unlock" the tab key more.

Thank you for sharing and your comments!

    Hi Tony,.

    On the Toshiba download page you can download the latest version of the BIOS only. Unfortunately there is no option for older versions of IDF.
    What you can try is to contact the Toshiba service provider in your country and ask for help. They have access to the database of the BIOS, and they can get the old version for you.

    > Can you replace the graphics card in the laptop?

    No, the GPU can not be upgraded
    Even if you would be able to remove the GPU of the motherboard and plug another chip, I guess that the BIOS would not address the new graphics card.

    You are very limited in the hardware upgrade of the mobile
    What you can upgrade are parties such as RAM or HARD drive. Sometimes the CPU can be updated, but it is also not supported by the laptop manufacturer.

  • Satellite A40-141 - IDE #1 error after the insertion of a new CD/DVD drive

    Hey there!

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A40 - 141 series.
    I have built in a new dvd driver and after I restarted my laptop

    I get the message IDE # 1 and I can't use the driver. I read in some forums that I probably need to update my bios. Now, here's the problem. I can only update version 1.5 for my laptop.

    I tried that and get the message that I already have version 1.5. I can't find an another update of bios for the A40 series except the 1.5 which is since 2004.

    Can anyone help please?

    Sorry for the long talk and bad English :-)
    Thank you

    Hello

    You are completely wrong boyfriend.
    This problem will be resolved not the BIOS updates!

    You bought the car just not compatible.
    The IDE #1 error means that the device connected to the IDE 1 controller was not recognized. Why? Because of the wrong master/slave/C-salt settings!

    Slim portable settings are controlled by the firmware and cannot be changed as weird for desktop PC.

    Either you contact the manufacturing of the CD/DVD drive and will require an update of the firmware and how to change these settings or you need to purchase a new compatible RATING

  • Satellite L350-141 works with 4 GB of RAM?

    I want to improve my Satellite L350 up to 4 GB of RAM. BIOS accept 4096 MB.
    But I can't install an operating system (xp prof. or 32-bit vista)
    My L350 boot from CD DVD, but if the installation program does not start I have a reboot.

    My question is: will my Satellite L350-141 work with 4 GB of RAM?

    Hello

    I think that he should t be a problem with the 4 GB of RAM.

    But as you probably n t known, Microsoft Windows 32 bit OS cannot use the full 4 GB of RAM due to the limitation of the 32-bit operating system.
    Microsoft has published several articles and documents concerning the issue of RAM of 4 GB.
    If you want you can google for this question.

    Fact is that only Windows OS 64 bit (XP or Vista) would be able to use the full 4 GB of RAM.

    The BIOS and Chipset also support 4 GB of RAM to make sure that the laptop and windows would be able to use the full memory.

    Best regards

  • Satellite L505-141 - Purchas of recovery disk

    Hi guys,.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L505-141 (Ser: 3A027302K), but unfortunately he had a problem and my broken hard drive.
    I have change the drive hard and after that, I realized that I have my restore disk as well.

    I found that I can order the CD by (https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/) but this site is to ship it in Europe and at the moment I'm living in Australia. In the billing details, I can't choose the Australia.

    So, my question is if it is possible I can upload an image (by buying of course)?
    If not, how I can put in place a delivery address in Australia?

    Thanks in advance

    > So my question is if it is possible I can upload an image (by buying of course)?
    Now, to my knowledge it of not possible to download the recovery image

    > If not how I can put in place a delivery address in Australia?
    I think the delivery in regions other than Europe isn't possible and I think that the European disc of recovery for laptops models cannot be operated outside of Europe.

  • Satellite R630-141 - view becoming over-saturated/bright

    Hello

    I have a portable Satellite R630-141 running Windows 7. During the last two weeks, I noticed that I had the machine will be during the suddenly very too saturated color and very high contrast. This makes it impossible to see some fine lines (e.g. the gray contours stars in gmail disappear completely) and become completely distorted faces and bands of color. Restarting the computer solves the problem. I have the latest drivers for the graphics (8.15.10.2189)

    I was wondering if anyone else had a similar problem and if I should send it the laptop in return?

    Thank you

    Hi cueball,.

    This strange s version the pre-installed Windows 7 in Toshiba or is it your own installation that you are using right now?

    This probably has nothing to do with the display driver that it would be interesting to know what is happening with an external monitor. So if you connect an external monitor, you may notice the same problem or everything is ok?

  • Updated BIOS for Satellite Pro U200?

    Hello

    does anyone have any experience with BIOS version 1.3 for Satellite Pro U200? I've upgraded to this version of the BIOS and have had several problems since then - shortened wireless keyboard does not and display the overflowing of installation brightness to name two.

    In addition, as I noticed last week, upgrading the BIOS can not be downloaded more and there is no alternative - just says download page don't: "no BIOS upgrade for this product! Is there anyone that has 1.2 BIOS so that I can try to downgrade to this version?

    What is your experience with BIOS 1.3?

    Hello

    It s really strange?  :|
    I checked the BIOS for Satellite U200 and Satellite Pro U200 download section, but I put t found any BIOS download at this time.

    A few years ago the authorized service provider has installed an older version of the BIOS on my Tecra friends unit.
    I guess that he should be able to do it on your Satellite Pro U200.
    The other possibility is to wait for a newer version of the BIOS.

  • Problems of updating BIOS on Satellite L40 - 15G

    I have Toshiba Satellite L40 - 15G and I want to put 4 GB of ram (2 x 2).
    It works with 3 GB but with 4 GB it just does not start - gives me a blue screen.

    I am running the .exe file, but when I restart the computer I have the same version.

    What should I do?

    In the hope of a response.

    Hello

    I think you are using an incorrect BIOS.
    Satellite L40 - 15 G seems to belong to the series of PSL48E

    Check again!

    Toshiba Europe page provides a BIOS 2, 00-VICTORY for Vista and WIN-5, 50 for Win XP

    Regarding the upgrade of memory:
    I don't know if your laptop would be m supports 4 GB of RAM. Is that there are different models of L40 and some models supports only 2 GB of RAM!

    Your L40 - 15 G seems to use the Mobile Intel GL960 Express Chipset...
    Check out the details on the Intel page which RAM max can be managed by the Intel GL960 Express Chipset.

  • Satellite R630-141 - Bluescreens after virsus

    I have a Satellite R630-141, which recently began to be planted in a blue screen. This product at random, even when he's not be used and sitting idly. I initially thought it's bourne virus so using zonealarm security suite I ran a scan of the entire depth. I also ran malwarebytes. The two scans are a total of three infections that have been quarantined. This does not resolve the issue.

    My second step was to run the check disk HARD windows and memory check that both have no problems.

    Then, I thought that this may be caused by overheating. Using the Toshiba PC health monitor and a freeware called coretemp I followed the core temperature hovering around 30-40 degrees centigrade and with moderate use that can go up to 60 ° C with gusts thereon to 70 C idling. I don't know if these temperatures are in the correct area, but they seem fine. I ran a CPU and RAM stress test, which has managed to increase the temperature to 90 c without crashing the system, the fan speed is tilted very well thanks to this test.

    before doing a complete restoration or repair, I wanted to ask if this is a known issue on or if you may be able to give a reason for his appearance.

    concerning
    end

    Hi findlay234,

    To be honest, I doubt that the problem is caused due to overheating. If your laptop overheats it would power off immediately or freeze, but I never had a problem with blue screen due to a higher temperature.

    In your case I might make a recovery facility. Maybe the virus deleted some files (registry) important and that s causing the bluescreens.
    You can use the recovery disc HARD reinstall Windows, but don t forget that everything on the first partition (C:\) is removed, so back up your data on another drive.

    It does not need a RAM Toshiba but better to use Rams from Toshiba as Toshiba offer tested high quality modules.
    4 GB of RAM spent number PA3677U-1M4G.

    I also recommend you to buy Kingston RAM. For more information visit the page of Kingston. It's a computer laptop with the same motherboard. Simply choose compatible Rams information.
