  .. . How update the bios?

  You don't Flash the BIOS unless you get the upgrade for the BIOS of the page of CTO Quad Edition Notebook PC drivers HP ENVY dv6t-7300. Since there is no upgrade BIOS listed on this page, there is no way to upgrade the BIOS. Depending on the exact systemboard and the OS that is installed on your computer, the HP part number will be something like "682174-501", which means "Windows 8 Standard / 2.0 GB of discrete video memory / 45 Watt CPU. The comparable numbers for the dv6t-7000 series is 682174-001, which means "Windows 7 / 2.0 GB of discrete video memory / CPU 45 watts.

  The MAIN of the BIOS is different version, the routine will not allow BIOS flash. IF you force it, you can make your computer does not work. DO NOT try to Flash a BIOS that does not support your computer page.

• Update BIOS version 1.55 for the hard-to-find S540!

  I discovered by chance that today there is an update of the BIOS for the Thinkpad S540 at the link:

  http://support.Lenovo.com/en_GB/downloads/detail.page?&docid=DS038373

  This is the version 1.55, released on 12 May.

  .. .and even if I go to drivers in general download page for the selected as the portable S540 concerned and looking at the BIOS available in the list of available software and drivers, it is still the old one version 1.54 of 12 March and not the new BIOS version 1.55 may 12 as in the link above!

  I think that there is a problem of updating web pages at the Lenovo site downloads?

  It seems that Lenovo support web pages are updated now so it's resolved.

• HP Pavilion DV4-1125nr cannot start after the update/update BIOS version F.12 to d.55

  System: HP Pavilion DV4-1125nr PC Notebook

  Product #: FR922UAR #AB

  The system board ID: 30F7

  Version of the BIOS (before the update): F.12

  OS: Windows 7
  

  I tried to update the BIOS to d.55 which was provided by HP. After the successful installation the closure of new windows BIOS correctly. I restart the PC, HP Logo appears and then nothing happens. The operating system do not load or start at all.

  I also tried to boot using the Windows 98 Second edition CD (to charge BACK), but it did not work.

  Please help me...

  Fortunately I found a Solution to this problem.

  Here are the summaries (and modified according to my needs) the steps that I've taken of the following thread:

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/notebook-hardware/dv4-1140GO-won-t-boot-after-flashing-latest-BIOS/m-p/19698#M2730

  1. go to the hp site and download the correct version of your BIOS. In my case it had to F.12. Why not the latest version? Because there is no guarantee that the last one will work for you, know after measures.

  2. go where you downloaded the file and using 7 - Zip (or tool of your choice of course) unzip the contents to a folder of your choice. We'll get to that later, so keep this file open.

  3. use 128 MB or no matter what key-USB USB key (the smallest, you might find, because they said the smaller the better ) and reformatted to FAT or FAT32 click with the right button on the drive by clicking on "format".

  4. now that my USB is ready, go back to the folder where you extracted the file to update the BIOS (always open to the right of the folder?)

  "5. If you have the graphics card Intel integrated like me, copy the ' 30F7F12U. FD"of the key USB and RENAME the file '30F7F12U. FD' at '30F7. BIN ". Remember that this name calling to order "DV4-1125nr. If you have a different motherboard, the system or the BIOS, the name must be determined according to the.

  The next steps are exact 0.0 as follows (the link of a full detailed discussion is provided below), I simply numbered:

  6 unplug the adapter from the laptop.

  7 remove the battery from the laptop.

  8 insert the USB key into one of the USB ports on the laptop.
  Does not seem to matter which.

  9. press the 'Windows' key and the 'B' key

  10. connected to the power adapter.

  11 press the 'Power' button on the laptop.

  12. when the LED is entered, letting go of the power button / stop and the two keys down earlier.

  13. After about 10 seconds the notebook started to read the USB key. While searching for the file, the laptop beeps every seconds.
  The number of beeps varied, depending on what size of the key USB has been and
  the number of files on the USB key, a single beep for many.
  If the file was not found, the laptop will restart and try again.

  14. If the file is found then it took about 12 seconds for the laptop to load. No beeps sound not heard during the loading time.

  15. when it is responsible for the laptop has started flashing, indicated by beeps every 2 seconds. It took about 32 seconds.

  16. about 5 seconds after the ringtone had stopped off the laptop computer.

  First I update my pc with the last BIOS (F.66), but did not work for me (operating system not loaded after HP Logo ). So I decided to go back to the old F.12 (the version that has been shipped when the laptop was purchased) according to the procedure described above. But the problem is where to find version F.12 as HP currently provides links only for the version of the BIOS F.66 to d.55 (in the drivers from the hp support site section)

  Fortunately, I found a direct link to this version F.12 in the next thread.

  http://Forum.NotebookReview.com/HP-Compaq/304332-C700-CQ40-CQ45-dv4-dv5-DV6-hdx18t-Insyde-BIOS-recovery-using-USB-thumbdrive-2.html

  F.12 version:

  FTP://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp40501-41000/sp40749.exe

  This was F.12 and worked for me. Thank God Almighty I return my PC.

  Thanks to all who contributed in the discussions above.

  Kind regards

• Satellite 4100xcdt does not recognize HARD drive after update BIOS version 8.20

  My laptop is a satellite 4100XCDT with windows xp and I want to install linux.
  Have the cd bootable linux (tested on other computers) but laptop doesn't not boot cd shape so I updated the bios with version 8.20 from the toshiba support site.
  Tried the disks formatted 1.44 and 7.20 such as recommended in the manual of the 4xxx series. BIOS has been updated successfully

  Result: after pressing the switch of the usual screen Toshiba appears, after the disc hard led flashes for a few seconds then windows except modus menu appears. After I made my choice (all tried) a few seconds later (and hard drive led light) flashes a blue screen (not enough long to read the message) and the computer is restarted. When starting from a back bootable floppy, I can't reach the (cd rom) drives (hdd) C and D
  But in my opinion that Windows Save menu modus is called from the hard drive (so I think that the hard drive still works)

  Hello

  Well, in my opinion a part on the HARD drive or bootable partition might be corrupted.
  You are right, if the windows save mode appears therefore HARD drive has been recognized by the BIOS and the HARD drive is bootable.

  I think there must be something wrong with the data on the HARD drive.
  Something similar happened on my laptop several weeks ago. After you use the chkdsk/r, I was able to run the operating system again. But then I installed everything again.

  On the Toshiba page I found the companion disc.
  The accompanying disk is capable of detecting your CD-ROM drive on the
  Toshiba during the boot process. If you need access to your CD-ROM
  Hunt, then delete "rem" Word the following lines in the Autoexec. BAT
  and CONFIG. SYS on the accompanying disk.

  REM if exist toscd001 a:\mscdex D:TOSCD001 /M:10 (AUTOEXEC. BAT)

  REM device = a:\toscdrom.sys (CONFIG. (SYS)

• Update BIOS Version error!

  Kindly help!

  Update the BIOS to T61; the old bios is 1.21(2007-8-22)

  I download the latest version 2.20(2008-7-1)

  Run the winuptp.exe my mistake is "driver loading failed, the utility cannot continue."

  What could be the cause of this?

  any help would be appreciated...

  Thank you

  Hello

  I recommend to download the Bios as a .iso file and burn it to a disk. Then insert the disc and the start of it.

  Updates to the BIOS through operating system Windows is a higher risk, than to do it on the back thanks to a bootable cd.

  Think about the possibility of brick of your system.

• Update BIOS / Setup for the C satellite series

  I feel that my bios was erased. All online performing a download my screen started flashing and the stop of the laptop. I now have the power in the laptop, but absolutely nothing on the screen. I tried holding 'o' to power on and and also f2 to bios aswell as FN + f5 to try another monitor everything to nothing will do, attracted me to the conclusion of an infected bios. Is it possible that I can replace the bios without going into a store. Keep in mind, I have absolutely no Visual on the laptop. Any suggestions greatly appreciated...

  Looks like that the LCD screen is detached from the motherboard. If you connect an external display you see the picture?

  If this isn't the case, send the laptop to a Toshiba repair center.

• ENVY dv6 - 7373ca: update BIOS WANT dv6

  Hello

  After I managed to remove the two "unknown device" - entered the W10 Device Manager clean install thanks to this forum, I tried to upgrade to the BIOSVersion F.2D Rev a dated August 26, 2014 and listed under Windows 8 (sp68425.exe) which, according to the note, HP recommends highly.

  As I was not sure if this update would work under W10, I first tried the method described (HP Notebook PC - updated BIOS) with the opening of the menu equipment Diagnostics UEFI immediately by pressing the ESC key several times, once per second, until the Boot Menu is displayed and then pressing the F2 key. But unfortunately on the HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI screen of my ' WANT dv6 - 7373ca "there are only four options (1. Memory test, 2. Hard drive test, 3. Language, 4. Exit) and no option called 'Firmware Management' or 'BIOS '. Because I would have preferred a BIOS update without starting the Windows operating system, is there something I can add this missing option menu Hardware Diagnostics UEFI?

  So I took the chance to run this BIOS file "sp68425.exe" in Windows 10 and everything seemed to work fine except the error message short after the new throw about 1 or 2 seconds that an error has been discovered, which needs to be solved and a percentage that was happening 100% before 10 of Windows start still.

  Now, everything seems to work ok: I can access the BIOS again much easier than the old BIOS dating sometime in 2012, I can boot Windows 10 without any error message longer, I can restore my WindowsImageBackups using the repair-CD as well as well as the SystemRestoreDrive I had both created on Windows 10. And the new BIOS version number and date are displayed under the W10 and also after the start systeminfo pressing keys ESC and F1. Is there anything else I can do to check the correct functioning of the BIOS?

  Concerning

  Seek and you will find what I found, it was supposed to be the latest version of "HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI" (v. 5.9.0.0) I installed immediately on the UEFI System Partition to update the old one in my laptop (c. 1.6.0.0). This provided the desired options '-update BIOS "and"BIOS-Rollback"after pressing the F2 key without having to start Windows or if this does ' t OS start.

• Re: Need updated BIOS for my Satellite A660

  I have an A660 (PSAW3A-07P00R) and can't at latest NVIDIA drivers under linux.

  It has been suggested that the problem I'm having can be addressed by an update of the BIOS.
  I currently have firmware BIOS 1.9 version y at - it a future update of the A660 PSAW3A-07P00R?

  If Yes, where can I get it?

  Last updated BIOS version are still available on the official page of support Toshiba so if you can't find probably it doesn t exist.

  As far as I know Toshiba doesn't offer any kind of Linux support so all offered stuff is for Windows. All available updates of BIOS are versions of WIN so it can be started under the Windows OS and I don t know how you can do it using Linux.
