How to confirm or force the update of the bios

I made an update of the bios on my system of 4058-CTO W500, but he is stopped at half way through the ' writing block x of y "Countdown.  Is only the approximately 35 65 and suddenly closed bios window and start the system closing.  He took a /long/ time (about 10 minutes) to complete the shutdown of Windows, but finally made it.

The system seems to be ok - it restarted, got to the bios screen a couple of times and restarted each time back, then started upward in Windows.  Is this a normal behavior?  Is there a method to check that the bios everything is indeed correct or perhaps force the update again?

I have the files .iso and .exe for the update of the bios, but when I run the .exe, I get a message that the bios is updated to alread - done this review done watching the whole bios to see if it is correct, or is it just the version number...  I have not tried running the update .iso - type of hope for some feedback before I do.

In any case – all entries and thoughts are welcome.

I agree with Moskito.

If this can help you to sleep better at night, back-in the previous version... and then to the high-flash BIOS flash it again.  But I highly recommend you do so through the ISO version... take the OS completely out of the equation.

  • How can I disable "force the touchpad touch '?

    Theoretically, this terrible 'feature' is only available on the latest models of MBP... I opted for the mid-2012 13 "this time (I got a few Mbps) since this is the last model that still has the DVD player.

    SO there is no option 'force the click and haptic feedback' in my system preferences, BUT my GarageBand preferences for some reason any displays the option 'Enable touchpad touch force' with the GRAY-CHECKED box (which means that I can not turn the * @% & thing off)!

    I discovered its existence, while trying to understand why my GB kept popping up with a "feedback detection, turn monitor off? ' blurb that is so incredibly boring, because it appears when I even not record anything and even stranger than that is it pops up when I don't have even a 'live' or vocal instrument track in the air! So, when looking for how/where to address THIS issue, I came across the "Force Touch" thing (christ, the only words sounds like an assault or rape or something, I mean, right?); now I'm pretty sure that this thing is causing "feedback" notice pop up (, also keeps you prisoner until you do deal with it - yet another great added "characteristic", thank you very much oh no Apple brilliant makes this happen)... arrghhh!

    SOMEONE CAN ME SAY PLEASE HOW TO TURN OFF THAT AWFUL THING? I don't even know WHY it does not appear (I usually want to answered the 'why'), but I despise seriously this thing so I JUST WANT IT GONE! Please that there is someone out there reading this who knows how to achieve it - I'll be eternally grateful!  Thank you!!!

  • How to make or force the Save dialog box for the link pop-up in Dreamweaver

    How do or force the Save dialog box for the pop-up link in Dreamweaver, legally?

    I looked on google how to and what is the code for this but all the answers are to use php or javascript code and paste it into "Web page editor" and edit with your file name. I wonder what the 'legal' way to do that using Dreamweaver options for getting to this: when I click on my link to the image on my Web page, I created, pop-up "save under" dialog box, then the visitor of my site for can save file that my site wish to offer for download.

    It is very easy to just a link certain file (in my case is png image) and open in a new page in the browser, but I want to save as dialog window appears and then visitor on my site to save my png file or not.

    Help!

    You will need to use a script.  If your server supports PHP, this will do what you want. Change filename & path to point to your download folder.  SaveAs download.php.

    Place a link on your page parent download.php file.

  • Satellite Pro A300-28R - how to enable virtualization in the BIOS?

    I tried to enable the setting of virtualization in the BIOS and the setting is disabled and I was unable to change the setting to activate. I have flashed the BIOS to the new version, and now how to enable virtualization has completely disappeared.
    The laptop model is Satellite Pro A300-28R with Windows 7 Professional and BIOS version 2.10.

    It is not possible to make some changes on the IRDA port in the BIOS. If the IRDA port is available on the machine, the operating system can recognize automatically. As far as I know that the infrared port is always enabled for communication with the other device that has obtained permit port IRDA.

  • How to enable virtualization in the BIOS of the Satellite M100?

    In order to allow VMX for use by computer Xen does not only have a VMX capable chip, the computer must also have a BIOS that supports.

    When I am tempted to use virtualization on my Satellite M100, I get the message:
    (XEN) CPU0: VMX disabled by the BIOS.
    (XEN) VMX: failed to initialize.

    Can I use XEN virtualization on my computer?
    How to make it active in the BIOS?

    Thank you to.

    Hi mate,

    the next thing is a fact:

    even if the CPU and/or the chipset would support VT, it s absolutely impossible to operate if the BIOS does not have an option to enable/disable VT on your machine.
    Which means: no option in the BIOS - no VT

    Maybe you should check for a more recent BIOS, maybe it activates the option. Otherwise you will have no chance / no luck for this specific feature...
