HARD drive click after update Bios on Satellite A100

Hello.
I just did a bios update for my Satellite A100 PSAA9, and after that I started to hear a few clicks on the hard drive, from time to time. They appear very often, but I would like to know why they started!

The bios update was published in 26/11/2007.
Does anyone have the same problem?

Thank you.

I put t think it has something to do with the BIOS update.
I put t don't know how old you HDD is but maybe that click concern only the HARD drive hardware problem

There are several times in my HARD disk created similar clique and sounds but it s runs great
I didn't noticed any hardware problem however, we cannot exclude a hardware problem and therefore, you should back up important data to prevent the files from damage.

Best regards

  • Touchpad no longer works after update BIOS on Satellite A500-1GL

    Hello world

    I just bought my laptop Satellite A500-1GL today. I started at the top and plays a bit (nothing serious). The touchpad worked very well at the moment.

    Then I discovered this tool to update the material and the update of the BIOS that worked without any problems. After I restarted the laptop, BIOS, loaded the default values of the installation and recorded.
    After that Windows 7 (x 64) started the touchpad no longer works...

    I downloaded the driver here and installed again once, still does not. I went into the BIOS, disabled the touchpad (I thought that maybe it's a bug...) and started again. It still does not...

    I enabled it again in the BIOS, tried to push the function + F9, but it still does not... Finally, I used the recovery and installed a Windows 7 costs.
    But unfortunately it still doesn't.

    Now, I'm out of ideas, can anyone help?
    Is there a chance to get the older version of BIOS to downgrade it?

    Thanks in advance ;)

    Hello

    It seems strange that after update Bios touchpad no longer works.

    > Is there a chance to get the older version of BIOS to downgrade it?

    To be honest, I don't know where to find. In any case, do a search on Google. Perhaps, other users of the forum can give you a link to download.
    The downgrade of the Bios is riskier upgrade procedure. So, be careful the next time...
    Advice for the future; Do not touch the running system.

    Good luck!

  • No activity after updating BIOS on Satellite P10

    I own a Satellite P10 part No. PSP10C-07610. I'm trying to update the BIOS with the update of the BIOS (Windows Setup) Version 2 that I found on the site of drivers & downloads for Toshiba Canada. After the execution of exe. file (I think that on the end of the process) my laptop off and since only the system starts up.

    The hard drive doesn't show any activity. It is similarly of the screen (even with an external monitor). The unit shows LED market, but nothing more.
    Does anyone have a solution?
    Thank you
    Alex

    Did you follow the guidelines recommended by Toshiba Canada this site BIOS?
    http://209.167.114.38/support/TechSupport/TSBs/all/-tsb000728.htm

    Your description does not sound very well.
    I mean it looks like that the BIOS update procedure went wrong and only EPA could help solve this problem.

    Maybe you are a lucky man and only the BIOS has to be flashed again.
    Ask if the service provider authorized in your country a help!

    Good luck

  • Problems after update BIOS on Satellite Pro 4600

    There is a problem with the computer toshiba laptop. its the fact do not install any windows OS after the Installer starts running xp there is an error message that says that the drivers of setupdd.sys could not be loaded (error code 14)

    I tried with different CDs with the same error, so I tried the procedure of the ghost image, but all in vain after reboot it is with an error that requires a kernel dll could not be found that I even used a cool ghost image but the same error.

    In fact, I upgraded the bios to a worm recent 2.60 it was beautiful, he started twice and has been used for several hours. the update was suuccesful up and running. It all started when we placed a kingston flash drive in the USB after it was working very well we copied a simple document on drive d, nothing else, it worked for half an hour. After I stopped, and then it was late at night when I started the system fine.i was listening to a song after that, he displayed the error messge system32 driver pci.sys damaged or missed.

    Then I tried everything I knew in windows xp to boot with xp cd and... etc I also formatted the hard drive to try to win98 installation gave an error also, external error to msdos, I think it's the update of the bios that is problem because windows 2000 Professional installation gave a very specific error. BIOS not fully ACPI compatible after pressing F7 in the installer of windows xp the feature ACPI went silent and requested installation good, but during the formatting the drive but it stopped with an error that the disc hard cannot be formatted.

  • After update BIOS my Satellite A200-h-13 is slower

    My laptop's slower since I updated the BIOS? I bought this phone 1.5 months ago and now it takes 7 minutes to get started! Internet Explorer takes 50 seconds to start...

    I installed an update that is not compatible with my laptop? What should I do?

    I updated the BIOS on Satellite A200 (PSAE0) to version 5.20 and there is no change at all. Maybe you should back up all your important data and make the clean OS install.

    I know it sounds stupid, but you have to understand that no one here do know your own settings of operating system and what can be the reason for the slow start.

  • XP does not start after update BIOS on Satellite L

    I've just updated my BIOS 2.10 to 2.20 to try to overcome a problem of overheating with Linux.
    The reboot of the XP laptop will not start. I get the XP screen for a few seconds and then the blue screen of death flashes until restarting the laptop before. The blue screen is so fast, that it's not finished writing the text - I can't see all the numbers to check the error.

    If I choose Linux Mint of my GRUB screen, the laptop starts properly. I also see the Windows partitions. I tried to boot from a XP disc to run CHKDSK, but I go to the step where it says it inspects the configuration of my then hangs on a black screen / white and there it is.

    Any ideas? Is it possible to roll back the BIOS?

    Hello

    Yes, you can downgrade (rollback) If you made a backup.

  • IdeaPad U410 without hard drive, lights after updates.

    Hello

    I imported just an Ideapad u410 of the United States to the United Kingdom. It turns on well, I started noticing the proglem wifi everyone have. Not much, got a USB wifi adapter carrying around I can use. Then I noticed that the hard drive (C, no other visible hard drive) was rediculously small (20-30 a few GB, I forgot the exact figure) with almost all of it is the used space. I thought it was a partition for the operating system and for some reason, the rest of the disc wasn't show. I noticed icon indicating the button windows update turn off and thought that maybe the installer was not complete, so I pressed restart. It kept restarting, download updates and reboot, I'm gone for dinner when she proclaimed it would now install update 1 of 96. When I came back the laptop was turned off. I turned it on to be satisfied by a never-ending cycle of BSOD when starting, followed by a Startup Repair failed... I guess that it is are not enough space on drive C for the update of windows. What should I do now?

    Did you use the BIOS from the European driver Toshiba page?

    This book belongs to the European series of Toshiba and if you want to update the BIOS then you must use the BIOS from Europe!

    Anyway, the last BISO on page 3, 20-win and it's only the BIOS which is available
    If you need an earlier version, then you will need to contact the Toshiba ASP in your country for a maybe version older, they could help

    But check the BIOS again access the settings and set its default value
    Then save the changes and the new boot
    Maybe it helps

    Hello

    What version of BIOS you have loaded? Version 4.20?

    Normally it shouldn´t do problems, especially after upgrading your BIOS. May I ask if the version of Windows installed on your machine you´d is on the media recovery or from scratch (from scratch means install with a genuine Windows CD and install the downloaded drivers)?

    If everything fails then send you the machine and let check the laptop on certain shortcomings of the BIOS.

    just a quick note, everything seems to work fine, just this error msg, which made my nut in :D

    Hello

    Seems that the app is loading at the beginning that creates this message.
    You should check the msconfing (in RUN type msconfig and go to the Startup tab)
    There, you can check what applications are mentioned.

    You can also try to clean the registry with CCleaner. This tool is free and scans the registry and removes garbage from registry

  • Satellite Pro A300 (PSAG9E) - after updating BIOS Windows will not start

    Restart went well after update BIOS and Windows XP logo appears loads for a few seconds then a beep and restart - last good known or start Windows normally same effect.
    Reboot back to start - this is a new laptop - using the BIOS of Toshiba s official download site.

    Quite annoyed to try to find a way to upgrade or downgrade the BIOS.
    Took battery and RAM to see if I can delete it?

    Any ideas anyone?

    I think you mean BIOS * update * and do not upgrade ;)
    An upgrade is not possible

    However, you can try to remove the battery and the AC adapter and wait an hour. After that, reconnect the battery and the AC adapter and try to start Windows.
    Moreover I would load the default settings in the BIOS before starting Windows.

    If it doesn't work, it seems that your ROM module needs to be reflashed. In this case an ASP can help you.

  • Pavilion g6-2215sia: CARD without WIRE NOT DETECTED AFTER UPDATE BIOS

    Recently I have updated my BIOS on my laptop HP Pavilion g6-2215sia think he'll adjust the hardware acceleration feature missing in my system (there is no option in my BIOS to enable virtualization technology). My BIOS version was F.12 and I've updated to F.24, but after update BIOS all my wireless functionality no longer works (including my wifi and bluetooth), and still there is no option to enable virtualization technology in my BIOS settings. On my Windows 8.1 x 64 Pro wifi and bluetooth options are grayed out so I can't turn them on or off. I tried to reinstall my bluetooth driver, but the software says that it doesn't detect any bluetooth hardware. Even when I restart and boot in all my Linux distributions installed on my system (Ubuntu, Quina and Kali Linux) and my x 86 Android, they still do not detect my wireless capability (says Ubuntu, "wifi is disabled by hardware switch").

    To confirm that this was not a software problem, I has conducted an audit of start-up and tested for my wireless module and got this result, "without WIRE MODULE CHECK: NOT INSTALLED". The only way I can get my Windows operating system to recognize my wireless (wifi and bluetooth) is now by doing a hard reset, when I unplug my laptop from the power supply, remove the battery and hold the power button for about 30 seconds. When I turn on my system, then I can turn my wifi/bluetooth on my Windows. But if I restart my system the problem comes back and I can't turn on my wireless. So basically, I have to avoid questioning my system off and only Hibernate, so that whenever I turn on my laptop I can use the wireless. If I restart my system so I have to repeat the hard reset in order to use my wifi/bluetooth, which can be very annoying.

    The problem is that I often use my other Linux disributions and I have to restart before starting in them so that my readers will be mounted read/write, and when I do my Linux can not detect my wireless and it's a serious pain for me because I need to use my wireless often for internet connection.

    Please I really need help on how to fix this and get my wireless working normally without having to do a hard reset every time. I tried to restore my BIOS F.12 unfounded but I don't have the image file (I extensively searched the Internet to find, but does not). I've even updated again to F.26 but I still have the same problem (my current version of BIOS is F.26).

    If you see no updates the BIOS in your list of drivers - where do you have the updates to the BIOS, you used?

    Try here - if you do not see the list of the BIOS, use the "Edit" button to change Windows 8.1 to Windows 8:
