Flash BIOS GC. M1.60 to GC. M1.63

I need to update the BIOS to a 5310 Pavilion to download Ubuntu.
The HARD drive has been formatted. After doing a Windows ME recovery disk.  Is it possible to Flash the BIOS of the optical or USB, or the procedure is possible from the A: drive?  Thank you.

Hello 1trebla,

Since you have already removed Windows Me system, you will need to use another computer with Windows installed to create the startup disk. Then, flash as usual using the diskette. Unfortunately, you will need to use drive A: (diskette) update of the BIOS.

    BIOS: L41 v01.02

    I'm looking for a little advice on flashing the BIOS on this TC. Instructions for the softpaq say to run flash the bios-high - but it works with the option of the tool-less set in the BIOS. As it is a very early version of BIOS, this option does not exist in the configuration of the BIOS. After a reboot, the update is not applied.

    Ideally, what I want to do is to create a USB bootable for flashing the BIOS, but the part I have trouble finding the correct flashing the BIOS utility. The friend-flash indicates a corrupted BIOS file, even though I know that it is very well I used the same file on other systems.

    Could someone give me some advice please?

    Problem solved. I installed 5.0 ThinPro who had the command of flash-bios-environments relevant so I could update the BIOS.

  • How can I Flash BIOS of my laptop BACK?

    I think it's much safer flashing the BIOS of the computer in the BACK rather than Windows. Usually make a boot disk 98 on my flash drive and Flash the BIOS in this way. Normally, the flash utility is a single file that contains the BIOS file. I got the update to the BIOS of my laptop, and it retrieves the number of files. I don't know if it'll work in the BACK.

    My laptop is a Pavilion dm4-2165dx.

    You are absolutely right.

    I also think the same as you.

    Unfortunately, the flashes of BIOS for most HP notebooks to consumers including yours, should be run in Windows.

    I disassembled the files on some consumer notebook BIOS and there is no file Flash bin BACK to put on a flash drive.

    When I'm forced to use a flash based on windows, I either make sure that the antivirus program is cut, or I run the flash BIOS in windows safe mode where there is a minimum of current process.  Normally the antivirus program does not in WSM either.

  • Flashing BIOS R830 Satellite on the Satellite R630

    I have a version of Bios R830 - 1GZ 3.70 THIS Version 1.50
    And also a R630 - 138 BIOS version 2.20 THIS Version 1.60 (this is the most up to date for this discontinued model version).

    The elders will recognize my WD Storage for what it is--it is an external HARD drive. And the boot in the bios shows below the HARD drive priority internal - that is what you expect for a correct operation.

    The last (R630) will always attempt to boot from storage of WD. It does not show the WD HARD drive in the list of Bios Boot priority.

    I can't continue to disconnect and reconnect the USB in the R630 - but it's a nuisance. I don't know that the problem down to the BIOS is not quite new. What would be the likely result of the turn signals version 3.70 - designed for the R830, on the R630?

    I expect to be told that he will make the inoperable R630. These laptops are very similar, so I hope someone might have a more promising response.

    Thanks for your help

    First of all:
    You can download only from the page driver BIOS Toshiba UE Toshiba victory.
    This means that you can update the BIOS only when running windows system.

    Second:
    It is not possible to update the BIOS R830 on the R630 since there is a protection which break the process flash because of compatibility issues.

    Thirdly:
    You could damage the laptop if you would try update BIOS wrong (perhaps using the traditional version of BIOS, USB version, etc.)
    So it is really bad, bad idea, that

    I tried to Flash the bios to version 1.90. He started the process, and when I came back an hour later the cell phone was off.

    When you turn it on, it has nothing now. I tried removing the battery and running on sector only.
    Works for keyboard (as in light) and power works, but there is absolutely no action on the screen.

    Is there anything I can try?

    Hello

    Try this;
    Remove the battery, disconnect the adapter and wait 1 hour.
    Then connect both devices and try to turn on the unit.

    If this will not help, then you will need to contact a local ASP.
    It seems that something was wrong during the BIOS update process and therefore, the laptop can not initialize correctly.

  • Equium L20 dead after flash BIOS

    I recently tried to update the BIOS on my Equium L20 (model PSL2Ze). I downloaded the latest version of the BIOS and ran the update of the bios windows that much happened and restarted the laptop and it's that it happened.

    Now, I don't even get the BIOS boot screen, indeed the screen didn't even come on when you press the power button.

    The green light as the fan that stays on the disk HARD runs briefly but other than that, nothing. I thought this would be fixable by burying a CD with the BIOS on but the instructions page to do this, it shows the extract the zip file you download in 3 folders 'Docs', 'disk 3.5' and 'CD', but the file download just extract in a folder and contains the version of windows and no records or Docs section.

    Is this an oversight, should I look elsewhere?

    Bq. {color: #333399} Option 2: update with CD-ROM-{color} \ {color: #333399} 1. Extract the zip file containing the BIOS upgrade to a temporary folder. \\ 2. Three subfolders will be generated in the temporary folder. "docs", "Update - 3.5' disc',"Update - CD - R or CD - RW"------3. How to make a bootable CD-ROM please read the *.pdf file in the "docs" folder \\ 4. Make sure that the laptop is plugged into the sector. \\ 5. Turn off the laptop. \\ 6. Place the BIOS upgrade CD-ROM in the optical disc drive. \\ 7. Turn on the laptop with the F12 key. \\ 8. The BIOS boot menu appears. Select CD/DVD or CD-ROM symbol with the arrow keys. Press "enter". \\ 9. Notepad starts from the upgrade of BIOS ROM-10. A boot menu is displayed. Select the point of updating the BIOS by using the arrow keys. Press "enter". ------11. The BIOS update process begins. Do not turn off the laptop during the update. ------12. If the update is complete, follow the instructions on the screen. {color}

    So basically I'm puzzled. I put a blank CD in the drive and turned on the laptop and it turns and tries to read so I'm confident a flash CD works but I don't know how to create the CD rom flash.

    Anyone can offer me some advice please?

    It's a shame!
    But unfortunately, there is nothing to see! Seems the motherboard is dead and replacement is necessary to make it work again!

    You know that the update of the BIOS is always risky and so do not do if the laptop runs correctly.

    The replacement of the motherboard is not very easy and a little trickier. If you have no experience you shouldn't it because you risk damaging the new purchased Council where the warranty is valid!
    So be careful.

    I found this page that shows how to disassemble the Satellite L25. This laptop is very similar to the Equium L20. So maybe it s a little help.

    [How to disassemble the Satellite L25 | http://www.irisvista.com/tech/laptops/ToshibaL25/satellite_L25_laptop_overclocking_1.htm]

  • Satellite L500 - cannot flash BIOS

    Hi all

    Looking for help here - I have a series of Satellite L500 and the battery has recently stopped charging - from 3 hours to 0% - not charging not from one day to the next. Have you tried altering the eco of the settings button, by pressing power for 40 seconds and even a new power supply unit (we have these to my work), but nothing seems to work. The only thing I can do without buying a new battery is flashing the BIOS.

    Problem: I get an error saying that the BIOS cannot be flashed because it has less than 10% of its power. An idea for a workaround?

    I'm more inclined to buy a new laptop than to spend any money fix this one (CD drive and a USB port also stopped working) but try to maintain the old faithful.

    Any tips or advice?

    Thank you
    Bajar

    To Flash the BIOS by using the version focused on winning, the battery must be charged.
    If it s unloaded, the process of updating the BIOS would not start up.

    But why you want to update the BIOS?
    BIOS update does not resolve the problems with the drive CD/DVD or USB ports.

  • Flash BIOS on Satellite A215

    I have a Satellite A215-S7444 originally shipped with Vista 32 bit, I have since made a custom installation of Se7en 64-bit. There is a problem of coming put fashion 'sleep' audio device disappears. OK, so there is an update of the Bios for my model that is supposed to fix this problem.

    If I remember well in the forums someone had posted "to not start from inside windows or u might completely bork your system." I have dl. The Bios updated and created a "bootable CD" according to the instructions using windows disc image burner, but as far as I went.

    I would therefore like to some someone to write instructions step by step for me on how SUCCESSFULLY Flash my Bios. As much, I know you must press F12 during startup, and then select the "Startup" tab, and then select Boot from disc. "Then you need to select"Save and Exit with changes"or something of the sort. And then restart. Is this correct or am I missing a step? I know that there is a SINGLE shot that if I want to get it's okay. Has anyone else successfully flashed the Bios?

    Thank you for all the useful information.

    Hello

    I agree with the user above. Make sure that you have downloaded the correct BIOS update. Otherwise you may destroy the ROM module

    If you update the BIOS from a bootable floppy, you don t have the stress with running programs. Just start the update and don t stop the laptop during this procedure and hope that everything will work! ;)

  • Can't Flash BIOS for Satellite A100 - 162 PSAA9E

    Hi all, I tried flashing my BIOS of the laptop but it always restart when it comes to flashing phase. I use the WinPhlash of + "drivers & Bios +.

    Hello!

    Have you also download the good BIOS for your laptop? I want to say is designed to PSAA9E series or another update?
    If you update the BIOS you must be logged in as an administrator and close all running programs.

    And why you try to update the BIOS? This update should only be performed if you have problems with your laptop. It s a little bit risky because you could destroy the ROM module in the worst cases.

    Good bye

  • Need for a disk to boot flash BIOS for Satellite P100-240

    I need to Flash my Satellite P100-240 on a bootable CD.
    The BIOS only I can find on this site must be run from windows.
    I have seen BIOS 4.40 for P100 on another Toshiba sites, for example:

    http://askiris.Toshiba.com/ToshibaSupportSite/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=2115 524xml & sliceId = & dialogid = 56504155 & stateId = 0% 200% 56506013 20

    But do not know if it is appropriate for P100-240.
    They seem to be named completely differently. Not sure if that's a thing based country.

    The BIOS in the mentioned link will be allowed to run on my p100-240?

    Your laptop is NOT American series but the European series and you must use the BIOS from the European driver Toshiba page!
    The incorrect BIOS may damage the BIOS ROM of portable module! And this would lead to the point where you wouldn t be able to boot the machine!
    This is why you should ALWAYS use the BIOS designed for this series of laptop!

    In addition, you won't find updates of the traditional BIOS on Toshiba page!
    There are only updates to the BIOS windows-based and you can update ONLY run under windows.

    If the notebook WHAT BIOS s cannot be updated to the Windows operating system, then you must contact the Toshiba technician and must ask for help!

    That's all you can do
