Equium L40 (PSL49E) - is the compatible update BIOS?

Simple question:

I have a laptop Equium L40 PSL49E with Vista. There is an update available BIOS - but only for the models with Modelnumber PSL48x, PSL49x, PSL4Bx, or PSL4Cx.

So my question is: what's my model?

Is PSL49E = PSL49x?

It would also be a bonus if someone could explain, function exactly who these updates? And if there is anything I should be aware of in this context?

Yes, the update is compatible with your laptop. I also checked the Web from Toshiba for the PSL49E site and I can see this update of the BIOS.

PSL49x means that this update is compatible with all models that begin with PSL49

    Please, I need a help.
    I updated my computer laptop bios v2.00 v1.60 and after that it no longer works.
    When I try to turn it on nothing happens.

    Maybe I need the original BIOS.

    Could someone help me?

    Thank you!

    My laptop is a series of Equium L40 - PSL49E - 156

    Hello

    I can tell what you have to do now
    You will need to contact the ASP in your country for assistance

    Yes, you have the technician ASP.
    I assumed that the ROM module where the BIOS is stored has not properly been flashed.
    I think that the ASP will try again by using a special version of the flash BIOS

  • Equium L40 - question on the latest graphics driver

    Hello

    I have a laptop L40 and I have problems with the display driver. ?

    I use Win Xp SP3 I have all the latest drivers including Bios ver 5.5

    The machine works fantastic and I am very happy with it, except for some graphics programs the only not to include/display as it should.
    Is there a more basic graphics driver, I can try to see if it helps to solve my problem. If so, please give a link.

    Thanks for any help coming next.

    Phil_H

    Hello

    The latest graphics drivers are already published on the European driver Toshiba page.

    If you want, you can see some graphics drivers for Satellite L40 / Pro L40.

    These units are very similar to the Equium L40 and possibly there are other, more recent graphics driver version

    But generally all available drivers are already displayed on the page of Toshiba.

    Good bye

  • What the correct update BIOS for my Lenovo R61?

    Main question:

    I have a Lenovo R61 15.4 "laptop computer screen with IEEE. 1394  What is the good BIOS update version for my system?

    * The version on the Web the matrix file BIOS Lenovo page, 7KET72WW (1.22 - 1, 06), seems wrong and outdated compared to this page:

    http://74.125.45.104/search?q=cache: jqsAECxdXDoJ:www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-68183.html+7OET24WW&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=5&gl=us

    which indicates that it should be 7OETC1WW (2.21). **

    Background:

    This Lenovo R61 laptop has always been slow and difficult, with performance much worse than my old XP system with worst record.  Originally, I tried to reinstall Vista to remove the useless factory software I thought may be responsible for slowing down the system.  This was the beginning of many problems.  I had added a stick of 1 GB 2 brand new RAM for the system, and I couldn't properly reinstall Vista with the ThinkVantage tools.  When I contacted the support, they told me it was due to the system are different from the original specifications (additional RAM).  It's ridiculous, but also to correct.  In addition, my Windows key at the bottom of the laptop sticker was scratched and unreadable, directly from the factory.  Support told me that the key is not useful or necessary because the only way to reinstall Vista is using the ThinkVantage tools.  Once again, ridiculous, but after removing my extra RAM, I was able to reinstall Vista.  This did not help the performance, even with the additional software deleted.

    On the current problem:

    I have experience several daily BSOD. Analysis of accident of Vista generally points to the USB driver, sometimes the network adapter driver and often does not return anything.

    I want to update my BIOS, but I don't know which version to use.  According to the information of the system, my system model is 8932CTO. The current system BIOS is the 7OET24WW version (1.03).  I did a search on Google for this BIOS and found the following cached page:

    [ http://74.125.45.104/search?q=cache: jqsAECxdXDoJ:www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-68183.html+7OET24WW&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=5&gl=us] It lists the following:

    This version supports the following systems:
    -ThinkPad R61 - 15.4-inch wide screen models
    Machine types: 8930 8933, 8934, 8935, 8936, 8937
    -ThinkPad R61i - model widescreen 15.4 inches with IEEE 1394
    Computer type: 8932

    The latest BIOS for my system model number is indicated as:

    The first version of this list, 7OET24WW (1.03) matches the BIOS on my system, which indicates that I have to upgrade to the current version, 7OETC1WW (2.21).

    This page shows that my system model supports IEEE 1394 (Firewire), and of course, the Device Manager shows a RICOH OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller, even if my laptop is not a firewire port!  Then...

    QUESTION: why does my laptop have an IEEE 1394 controller, but no port?  It is used to something else? Safely disable the controller driver if it is pointless?

    The same page also lists the history of BIOS for thise models, and the current BIOS version does not match the name on the matrix of the file BIOS Lenovo - ThinkPad page here: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=BMOE-3VAM8Y#r

    My computer is a R61 widescreen 15.4 inches with IEEE 1394 (at least the controller).  NONE OF THESE VERSIONS OF BIOS MATCHES THE OTHER PAGE, I FOUND, WHICH SEEMS MORE ACCURATE!  Also, only one of the many, many BIOS versions presented on this page are from 2008.  So the page of the Lenovo BIOS file matrix totally out of date or what?

    What version of BIOS should I use to upgrade my system, and what else can I diagnose these BSOD and performance problems?

    Agotthelf is correct; 2.21 is the latest version of the BIOS, and to install it, you must burn it to a CD as an ISO file. I was too lazy to do.

    My R61, too, is the 15.4-inch (1680 x 1050) model, but unlike you, I have XP Professional and a 1394 a miniport. The reason your system shows Firewire, it's Ricoh Board which controls the 4 - 1 or 5-in-1 memory card reader includes the R61 Firewire controller. I guess it's convenient is you decide, as I do, to add a CardBus (or, as the case may be, an ExpressCard) with full major ports 1394 a(1) FireWire, 1394b (FireWire 2), or both.

  • Stellite L40-14B on failure after update BIOS 5, 40 - WIN

    After I run the .bat file to archive (steb by step as in the statement), he says 'plise wait', but nothing happened. I wait about 5 minutes and restart manually and enter the BIOS version was 5.40. After I turn off laptop and it runs is not on. What can I do?

    Unfortunately my friend... bad news... in your case something went wrong during the update procedure. Update the BIOS is always risky.

    In my opinion, you must contact the ASP from Toshiba, which is responsible for you County and need to ask for help...

    As far as I know guys could flashing the ROM module and then the laptop should run again.

  • System freeze when it is opened the tool update BIOS, how can I update the BIOS?

    I'm trying to update the BIOS on my 14 (1016tx) want.

    I downloaded the latest BIOS from the HP website and open it, the dialog box has 2 buttons only start at 1, output 2

    Click 1 start, then another dialog box pops up saying not to stop your computer blablabla... and asks me to confirm, OK or cancel

    However, all input devices have no answer at this time. No keyboard, touchpad, usb mouse no longer works. USB ports seem to be put off, since the light on my usb key is off.

    The power button does not work neither. I continue to press it for about 1 minute, just can't turn off the machine and I have to remove the power cord and the battery to stop the crazy fan.

    p.s. I just installed the operating system. (Windows 7 Professional 64-bit) until I try to update the BIOS.

    Thanks for the quick response.

    I managed to fix everything on time. It seems that the problem was caused by the absence of HP_TOOL partition on my hard drive.

    I downloaded the UEFI BIOS HP update and installed it, he created a partition of 2 GB HP_TOOL for me, and then the BIOS update tool work (it will restart the computer to update the UEFI BIOS and BIOS update).

    P.S. Just wonder why HP releases suck a stupid tool. If it relies on a HP_TOOL partition, it should just say that instead of drive the crazy fan and disable all buttons!

  • Equium L40 problems using the recovery disk

    Hello

    I wonder if anyone can help me?

    I want to restore my computer but when I put the recovery disk in I select the cd/dvd rom drive by pressing f12 at startup.
    I also maintained pressed C when I lit. I select the disc I want to start the computer, it goes to a black screen, then it loads just windows up as usual.

    I phoned with Toshiba for help and all they could tell me was that as another drive worked on my computer, it isn't a problem with the disk drive, but a problem with the disc and it will cost me 30 quid for a new!

    Is anyone able to give me any help

    Thank you

    Hello

    If I understand your message, you are not able to recover the laptop using the Toshiba disc. Is this good?

    Well, in your case I recommend to start from another original Windows XP CD bootable disc or Vista DVD or a Linux drive to test if the CD/DVD drive can handle this drive.

    In this case, you can test if your CD/DVD drive is faulty or if the problem is related to the Toshiba DVD recovery.

  • Equium L40 - 17 M PSL49E - collapsed Wlan work after BIOS update

    Hi all

    I have problem with my laptop.
    The laptop Equium L40 - 17 M, model PSL49E-00C005KS.

    For a few days, I am updating my BIOS after update, with the version P20B200 (bios 20080617131309), internal wireless stop working.
    Show me device is turned on but activity is off, and I can not turn on the device.

    First thing I think is 'Windows' and I start the recovery disc. But after the problem of the recovery is still exist, Wireless does not.
    Then I put external USB wireless and are trying to connect with the router.

    Computer recognises USB but it also don't do no work orders, so the problem is not wireless (I'm not sure why), but I think that this problem is because the laptop can not recognize USB device properly.
    I want to Flash the bios with old BIOS but I don't have it

    I'll be grateful to someone who have the same problem, tell me how to resolve this.
    Or send me an old bios for my laptop.

    Hello

    I always put t know what BIOS version, you used.
    Is that Equium L40 PSL49E can use two different BIOS versions.
    If you are using XP you need to version 5.50 of BIOS, but if you use Vista then you need to use the BIOS 2, 00 - Win.

    Secondly, I would recommend updating the driver Realtek WLan until you try to Flash the BIOS again.
    I think that the need for notebook Realtek Wlan driver.

    Check the driver from the Toshiba page or download one from the Realtek site directly!

    PS: The wireless network card must be turned on before you try to connect to the router.
    You have to switch the WLan ON switch and need to press FN + F8 until the WiFi network has been activated!

  • Equium L40 - Windows won't start, message on screen

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Equium L40 - 17M.
    Recently when update my antivirus, my computer tried to restart but now does not load correctly.
    Now whenever I try to turn on the computer, after the initial configuration screen Toshiba I'm greeted by the following message is displayed in the upper left corner of the screen.

    Playing a disc error has occurred
    Press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart.

    However, this message seems right once again!
    Suggestions please!

    It could be a problem of file system corruption, in which case you can connect the HARD drive to another PC and run CHKDSK on the drive.

    If no help, then check the bad sectors HARD disk using the Test advanced in Hitachi DFT (Google is your friend)

    Or you can try to run your recovery discs recovery. This reformatted HARD drive, so you will need your first of all if the data backup sound still there (you can use a USB 2.5 "HDD adapter).

    If you really need your data back, there are data recovery programs, you can download to search the HARD disk for lost files.

  • Question about updating BIOS for my Satellite M40

    So, my laptop does not start, but works recovery procedure. Support suggested me to update my Bios.
    OK, given that the last time, it was easy.

    I downloaded the newsest version vor my Satellite M40 (PSM40) (1, 70 - WIN<= i="" have="" an="" ati="" grafics="" card)="" and="" extracted="" the="" bios-20070709161345.zip="">
    But there was a surprise:
    Instead of getting the old data structure, as written in the FAQ update Bios
    1 extract the zip file containing the BIOS upgrade to a temporary folder.
    2. in the folder temporary three subfolders will be generated. "docs", 'Update - 3.5' disc', 'Update - CD - R or CD - RW"

    I get a file only: BIOS of Windows Knockhill10GV170.exe
    Extraction of it I get 8 files:
    -fdbase.img
    -InsydeFlash.exe
    -iscflash.dll
    -iscflash.vxd
    -KPM170. ROM
    -Platform.ini
    -The c:\windows\system32\unicows.dll

    Now my question: How can I create this bootable CD-ROM to update my Bios?

    Just to know: download all the other things are done on my desktop from my laptop is not starting ;)
    I also tried to run the exe in the hope that it will create a floppy disk or a CD-ROM, but it is written "basic cfg address not found."

    Hello

    Update the BIOS there are two ways to do this:
    -Traditional mode (TRAD) and in this case, you need floppy
    -Windows (WIN) and this update can be done under operating system running.

    Update BIOS WIN will work if you run Windows on your laptop satellite. If I understand your assignment well you are trying to do traditional BIOS updated, but using the BIOS to WIN update. On the Toshiba download page, there are two listed BIOS updates and two of them as versions of WIN. This means that you can update the BIOS under operating system only.

    Back to your problem: in the history one thing confuses me when you write: my laptop does not start, but works recovery procedure. Sorry, but if the recovery procedure is working and you will have clean installed OS.

    Be a little more concrete in our laptop does not start. What happen exactly when you press the power button / stop?

    Hello

    You can download another version of the same-update bios here:

    This file contains more information on the execution of the update, see the readme file
    You can do an update directly in XP or make a bootable floppy or bootable CD

    If the "live update" in XP does not work, you will need at least a key-USB-fdd, most of them is easily recognized by the bios (hold F12 during startup and choose the fdd)

    How can I get close to it.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    I think the problem is that the update of the bios (which is using windows) doesn't work under XP, so won´t you luck because it takes a working XP and common modules installed on your machine.

    Unfortunately there is no other way to update your bios, but in your case it s is NOT necessary update the bios since the new version adds not important functions. So I think that it s not a BIG problem, and if your computer is running well, then ' that one ' and follow the good old "never change a system up and running.
