Has no updated BIOS on Satellite A200-1AD

Hello

Yesterday, I tried to update the bios on my Toshiba a200 1 - AD.
When I started the .exe file, it gave me an error like this: driver is not found. (Don't remember the exact error).

After the appearance of the error, the update process was cancelled. Everything was always fine until I tried to restart the computer. It got stuck and I had to remove the battery to shut down (the switch did not work).
Now he appears to be dead, when I start the screen remains black. The hard drive also shows some activity for 1 or 2 seconds. The DVD drive seems to work well.

I did some research on the internet and we are talking about the bios recovery jumper. I can't find if this laptop has a.

Some help would be appreciated.

Hello

Rider on the laptops bios recovery does not for me.
Something similar exists on motherboards for desktop PC.
On desktop PC, you can remove CMOS battery, or you can use the jumpers to set the BIOS default settings. But this is not possible on mobile phones!

The notebooks are in need of a special procedure to Flash the BIOS ROM module
Unfortunately, I put t see any other possibility as to contact the maintainer authorized Toshiba in your country. Only the ASO can help you!

You should know that the update of the BIOS is risky. Bad BIOS or bad BIOS update procedure can damage the motherboard or could make the laptop not bootable

Good luck

    In the BIOS, I recommend to set to default settings. Simply press on F9 and save any changes when you exit the BIOS.

    Good question, but I don't know which should give you the answer to this?
    It is just user forum.

    In any case, if the A200 will build for Windows 7, I can imagine that Toshiba will supply the BIOS update. The same was for old WXP specifications supported for Vista.

    Hey Buddy

    You can get compatible parts of the ASP from Toshiba (authorized service provider) in your country. Guys could order the necessary parts and replace it.

    I saw your other thread on BIOS password:

    So you will need to contact the ASP to also remove the password, and then the broken lid locking could be replaced.

    This computer is 3 months old. What can I do with it?

    First of all: what do you mean by "resettlement"? !!! Tried it before and she didn't? Need a better explanation!

    I have sometimes prey that users here (or new users) just explain a bit more detailed problem!
    OK, if the laptop does not start then not entirely for trash.

    Another question: what service did you call? Who was a Toshiba Servicepartner? I think that if it is an OFFICIAL AUTHORIZED SERVICE PARTNER, then they wouldn say that your machine can go directly into a trash can...

    Proceed as follows to save your machine in the Trash:

    1. click on this LINK: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_whitepaper.jsp?service=EU&WHITEPAPER_ID=0 000000871
    2. search for the of SERVICE AUTHORIZED PARTNER nearest in your country and dial Don t the same as calling you before!
    3. call them and send your machine for them. They should fix your machine because you have always guaranteed on this subject.

    That's all.

  • White screen & no start after having executed the update of the BIOS on Satellite A200-1AE

    Here's my problem with my laptop A200-1AE (PSAECE):
    I downloaded the BIOS of Toshiba download drivers library was last updated to install Win XP because pilots are realized. (Note the update clearly to run ONLY if you want to install XP on you, n. b.).

    So I unzipped the file and after hitting the .exe file, it started update BIOS on its own without giving me the freedom to do so. To halfway to the N/B froze for about 20 minutes and as I didn t know what to do, I reset.

    Result? NB does NOT start. I press the power button, the icon of the hard disk will Flash 2 or 3 times as well as the DVD player, I get a blank screen and the power cord & power constantly button icons. I removed the battery and the power cord for 48 hours, hoping he'll reset the BIOS on its own or not available.

    The BIOS battery is under the touchpad which means I have to disassemble the computer laptop everything and I'm not willing to do. I put t whether on the motherboard there is the BIOS reset jumpers and I need someone's help as to what I should do. I'm starting to think that things where back a LOT easier when I just had a desktop PC.

    THERE must be something I can do other than take it to the service center and pour half of the value of the laptop repairs... PLS HELP I m desperate...

    Hello

    first of all: a laptop isn't a desktop and mobile computer of this type has no jumpers as a deskop computer. They definitely have something to remove the BIOS, but I'm not sure IF the reset of the BIOS might help you.

    I guess you will have to send your machine to a repair center, because in this case, you will have no other choice. You have always guaranteed on this machine?

  • Satellite A200-1AD: Bios password set after the start of the USB

    Hello

    I have an A200-1AD bought in August 2007.
    My BIOS password has been set after that I booted up with a non bootable USB key into it.
    The date has been reset to 01/01/2005.

    Anyone have this problem before?
    As far as I know that there is no virus on USB key or a laptop.

    I can start my laptop but cannot get into the bios because of the question of password.

    Does anyone have a solution?

    Welcome them

    Hey Buddy

    To be honest I have no idea why this password has been defined after using non bootable USB flash drive. For me it s not explainable

    However, the bad news is that you will need to contact the ASP in your country to get rid of this password.
    Is BIOS password can be removed by ASP and so the ASP help is needed.

  • Satellite C55 - Has - after update BIOS fan turns faster

    Hello

    I have been informed by Toshiba application this new version of the BIOS is available, I confirmed BIOS and it has been updated. Now I have the problem. Cooling fan runs faster than before and it is very annoying.
    Find old versions of BIOS somewhere and roll back? I didn't need it if it does not work properly.

    Now I have version 1.40. Y at - it a solution for this new version?

    Driver Toshiba UE page provides only the latest version of the BIOS.
    In addition, the BIOS downgrade isn't possible using the update to the BIOS of win-bases.
    To downgrade the BIOS Toshiba unit, you will need to use the traditional method of updating the BIOS that requires a special version of BIOS. It is available only for the authorized service provider.

    On the other hand, it must be a good reason, why the cooling module run faster.
    Perhaps that the cooling method has been improved again BIOS just to make sure that the internal parts would be properly cooled.

    It s just a guess but I think it makes sense

    By the way: after each update of the BIOS, you must load the BIOS default settings and should save the changes. If you haven t done this in the past, it doesn't

    Hello!

    I'm new to the forum, so I apologize if already, this question has been asked.
    I have a Satellite A200 - 13 M (PSAE6) with windows xp. As my computer crash, I send in the recovery and I pick it up today. I've noticed that people who fix my computer Flash the bios with the 1.70v bios for Vista...

    I would like to know if they are the differences between a bios for vista and one for xp?
    As I have Xp installed, can I Flash the bios with a bios designed for xp? (5.30v)

    thx a lot.

    The difference between the BIOS is BIOS XP allows the FN XP keys and some other features, so the same does the Vista BIOS. There are other things of compatibility based intaglio the BIOS.

    In your case, please install the BIOS for WIndows XP.

    I have a Satellite A200/H01 with Vista Home Premium 32 bit.
    A few days ago I started up this message at startup: "TosBtMng has stopped working" I have updated all the BT device drivers in Device Manager, but it did not help. I then installed the battery BlueTooth (v64000T_20090324_x32.exe), and this did not help, either. In fact, the error "TosBtMng has stopped working" message kept coming upward on several occasions, even when I tried to shut it down.

    Could someone help me please?

    Toshiba offers updates BIOS to WIN. This means that the BIOS update can be done under Windows operating system only. You can't do this if you use Linux.
