• Satellite A100 - 803 (PSAANE) - Trouble updating the BIOS in Vista

  Hello

  I tried to update the BIOS on my laptop today. After the installation of the new BIOS, restarted the pc and then it showed a black screen with white display text material in the machine.

  In the end, it says something about a corrupt CMOS. She said press F1 to default or F2 for Setup.

  I pressed F1.

  The thing is that I don't know if it worked. I used a program to display the bios version and it seems up to date, but the CMOS thing me freaked out.

  I met all of the planned maneuvers (AC adapter / CC plugged etc.) except in startup mode. I assumed that the boot mode is currently in the standard vista desktop.

  * What is this thing of startup mode? * It's driving me crazy. I searched the forums, google and nothing. How can I get the computer to "boot mode and not recovery mode" as the tutorial says.

  I intend to reinstall the BIOS as soon as I know how to enter in the boot mode.

  I think that this announcement has already answered in this thread:

  You're talking about the traditional BIOS update, but the fact is that on the Toshiba driver page you will find ONLY the base BIOS update windows.
  All new BIOS updates are versions of WIN and can be updated only running a Windows operating system.

  In the BIOS, the package should be unzipped everything first, and then an .exe file must be run.

  That s all ;)

• Portege M400: Could not update the BIOS after installing Vista

  Hello

  I have improved my M400 for Vista.

  I am trying to install all drivers Vista of Tosh. According to the instructions, the first thing to do is to update the bios.

  So, I download the bios (v3.60) on the site and run the .exe, but he tells me that I need the common modules.

  The only common modules that I can find on the Tosh site are for XP.

  Can anyone help?

  Thank you

  Steve

  You will probably need to update the BIOS before installing Vista on the laptop.
  Then, you could install Vista again.

  Hello

  It seems that Toshiba has released a special version of the BIOS for Windows Vista.
  If you want you can check it on the page of the Toshiba driver.

  But if your Vista runs correctly on the computer laptop with the previous version of BIOS you n don't need to update the BIOS.
  I recommend updating BIOS, if any odd operational behavior will appear.

• Satellite P200 - update of the BIOS under Vista x 64

  Hello!

  > I have trouble running as she complains the PHLASHNT.sys driver.
  Sorry, but I don't understand what you mean. It's not clear to me.

  I downloaded the package to update the BIOS for your Satellite P200 (PSPBGE). It contains the setup.exe file and the file ROM.
  Extract the two files to a folder and run the installer as administrator.

  Good bye

• Can I update the bios with software for windows vista?

  I have a HP Pavilion a1747c desktop computer and I need to update BIOS for virtualization technology. However the update the BIOS only supports Windows Vista, and I have Windows 7. Can I still updated it somehow?

  Yes, you may be able to extract the actual BIOS file of the installation package compressed and use a flash routine appropriate for flashing BIOS under another operating system, but you do so at your own risk. Any damage to your computer by using this process is at your own risk and you take responsibility for it.

• Update the BIOS - protected A600 problem

  I'm trying to update my BIOS settings on my laptop (that I was invited to do by the service of Toshiba hardware update).

  I followed all the instructions provided by the program because it extracted and ran the update. However, the computer began the reboot process, but has been 'disconnected' windows (Vista Business) for about an hour now. I don't know how to stop the process without causing serious damage to my BIOS, but this does not seem normal.

  Help, please!

  Hi wilreb...

  I think that the user henharas a bad experience with the BIOS updates.
  I updated the BIOS many times and never had any problems...

  I assume you mean on Tempro software... this software informs you about updates on the Toshiba page. It is not a recommendation for an update, but simply an alert that new updates has been published...

  If your laptop is running properly, then update the BIOS is not really necessary...
  You must follow these tips; never change a running system ;)

  In any case, after the update of the BIOS shouldn't take too long and if she has completed, you should see the new version in the BIOS settings...

• Is it possible to update the BIOS for the Satellite A110 (PSAB0) and Windows7?

  Hi all

  I recently installed Windows 7 on Toshiba Satellite A110 (PSAB0).
  The version of the system BIOS is v1.30
  I want to Flash the BIOS for you last version v2.0.
  This version is released in January 2009, before the introduction of Windows 7.

  There are two versions of the BIOS download, one "for Vista only' and one 'OS independent.
  I think I have to go to the operating system independent.
  Link: [update BIOS | http://www.toshiba.nl/innovation/download_driver_details.jsp?service=EN&selCategory = 8 & selFamily = 192 & selSeries = 236 & selProduct = 661 & STAS hortMod = 478 & language = 1 = 12 & selOS & selType = 4 & yearupload = & monthupload = & dayupload = & we eDate = null & mode = allMachines & search = & action = search & macId = & country = 24 & selectedLanguage = 12 & type = 4 & page = 1 & ID = 66230 & DISO =-1 & driverLanguage = 42]

  Independent of the OS has warning: + "this Bios is NOT compatible for notebook computers equipped with Windows Vista!" + "

  So here's my question: this BIOS version is compatible with Windows 7?

  Thank you very much!!

  Hello

  I think that this BIOS (v2.0) is not released for Windows 7 and that it has also not been tested with Windows 7. This BIOS has published 21.01.2009 and Windows 7 was released on July 22, 2009. However, on the other hand it s not mentioned that this BIOS is not compatible with Win 7.

  But the fact is that only Windows 7 doesn't is NOT supported on this laptop.

  Windows 7 drivers are not out on Sat A110, but this does not mean that you couldn't install Win 7 on this device. Of course, you can install the Win 7 system, but Toshiba does not provide any Win 7 software for this series.

  Back to BIOS update:
  In your case I would try not to update the BIOS if the laptop works properly.
  Why? Because the update of the BIOS is still a technique sensitive and you could damage it the motherboard if something goes wrong during the update of the BIOS.

• Problems after updating the BIOS on Satellite Pro P200

  I recently buy a Satellite Pro P200 running Windows Vista Business. Yesterday, I updated the BIOS to the version 1.50 supplied with the machine to 1.80 available on the Toshiba site. I double checked that I was using BIOS correct update for the Pro P200 Satellitel running Vista.

  After updating the BIOS, I have now two problems:

  1. whenever I start and join the office, I get an error message "record of Vista has stopped working". This problem has been identified as toshibavistaregistration.exe here: [link: http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=99805]

  2 Control Panel > system now shows the processor and the memory (RAM) as "not available". Execution of the diagnostic PC Toshoba tool and looking at basic information show also no information on the memory (RAM) Although the processor information here. There may be pieces others missing too under the eyes of list shorter than before the update of the BIOS.

  Basically, I want to get everything working again as it should, but cannot find any information on these issues.

  After further review, it appears that the update of the BIOS is not the cause of the problems.

  Immediately after updating the BIOS, I had a major system crash. It turns out that this is what has caused problems.

  After a system restore to a point before the update of the BIOS and the major system crash, now everything is working again with BIOS version 1.8 in place.

  Hello

  If you are sure that you have chosen the right BIOS for this series of cell to 100%, the problem must be related to a missing Toshiba software that is needed to update the BIOS.

  As mentioned above; the common modules must be installed if you are using Win XP.
  VAP is necessary if you are using Win Vista or Win 7

  But as far as I know that the software Win 7 or Vista came out to this old series Tecra so, possibly, you can update the BIOS only ruin Win XP.

• Qosmio G30 PQG31E - no driver XP 32? Cannot update the BIOS?

  As usual, obtained a computer laptop, but no recovery CD :(

  Got 32 installed XP (my Microsoft contract does not MCE) but a lot of missing drivers. Driver Toshiba page has all the drivers for XP MCE, XP 32 has only BIOS update, Bluetooth, HD - DVD firmwares, the virtual sound and drivers WI - FI!

  So I tought "Vista on this issue", but I checked the compatibility XP with Vista DVD I got a 'need to update the BIOS' (always a 1.40-2006/03/10)!
  My problem is that BIOS update always returns "this computer is not supported! Laptop has only one account, this isn't permissions problem, perhaps because many drivers are not present? Can I update the BIOS in safe mode?

  What now? Am stuck with a brick of Qosmio? Without controllers LAN to say the least, I can't not fact! Drivers XP MCE does work on XP 32?

  Any thoughts?

  Hello

  I found all the Win XP drivers for Qosmio G30 PQG31E!
  On the European driver Toshiba page, you can find the Win XP MCE drivers
  XP MCE drivers are the same drivers for Win XP Home or Pro.

  There are also some BIOS 3, 90-WIN and this BIOS is operating system independent. In other words, it works with Win XP and Vista...

  To update the BIOS the common Module must be installed
  You can find also on the European driver Toshiba page!

  Post edited by: kirekk

  Qosmio F50 - 10 k belongs to the series of PQF55E.
  If you want to update the BIOS, you will need to use the BIOS exactly for the F50 PQF55E series.

  The European driver Toshiba page provides BIOS for Vista 32-bit and 64-bit OS.
  But this does not mean that you cannot use the Win XP

  I think you can use the Win XP but the fact is that the BIOS has been optimized for Vista and not XP

  The BIOS update should work also on XP, but in some rare cases the update cannot be performed and in this case, you will need to the Toshiba preinstalled the operating system in order to update the BIOS

  Hello Daniel,.

  I'm a little confused about your message from Mr.
  What do you mean with half of the bios is enough?
  What s wrong with the BIOS?

  The support from Toshiba said-> try a BIOS update.
  On the Toshiba page, you can download the BIOS for Satellite A40.

  It seems you didn't check the download page detailed because on this page you will find this statement:

• Satellite L300 - 20 d - after updating the BIOS, that it does not start now

  Hello

  I bought my wife a Toshiba L300 - 20 d (PSLB8E-0CK00YEN). It came with loaded Vista, which it cannot do.

  My grandson offered also to sort. He has installed a new hard drive, loaded with XP and managed to get almost all the drivers working except the WiFi.

  After spending many hours, he decided to update the bios of v1.8 to v1.9. Since it does not start... It happens with the Toshba screen, start windows normally, then it attempts to load windows, flashing and start the cycle al.

  He has tried default settings, tried a XP disk, setting on the disk, nothing. He just does the same thing in safe mode.

  Any suggestions will be appreciated

  Hello

  The wireless network card is enabled with the hardware switch on the computer laptop and FN + F8? Check this box!

  Additionally, make sure that the latest driver on the Toshiba site is installed, and check the settings of the wireless network adapter TCP/IP.

  Moreover a description that is more accurate than the WiFi works not would be very appreciated.

  Good bye
