• HP Pavilion dv4-1120br: doubts about the BIOS update for my model with the operating system current instaled.

  Hello

  I have a HP Pavilion dv4-1120br, I know that this model of HP laptop is old, but I instaled the 64 bit of Windows 10 on my machine and saw that my BIOS is version F.30 and the last of them available on the site of HP F.66 has.

  The problem is that this model is not suport for Windows 10 because, as I said, is too old. Can I download and run the update of the BIOS for Windows 7 64-bit available in the Web site, or I need to downgrade my OS to Windows 7, update the BIOS and then pass it back to Windows 10?

  Thanks for the help!

  Hello;
  
  Let me welcome you on the HP forums!
  
  Your second proposal is correct - as the updates to the BIOS on the HP site are specific to the OS version and if you try to run one for Win7 in Win10, it will refuse to run.

  Good luck

  This is the error that I got when I tried to apply the update after reinstalling my Satellite Pro P200 last weekend. I remembered that I applied the update, a week earlier, thus interpreted the message in this sense that the ROMA had already been flashed with the new BIOS format.

• Questions about the BIOS update and battery charge on Satellite M30 104

  Hey,.
  I try to update my BIOS, but it does not work because my battery won't charge any more, if a window always tells me that my battery is not enough. Yet, the reason why I'm updating my BIOS is that I read in a forum that might solve my problem of battery charging.
  I'm fairly certain that the battery is not the problem itself: I bought a new battery, it worked for 10 minutes once or twice, then again the load stop completely.
  If anyone knows what the problem is or how to update my BIOS, please...

  Hello Celia

  I am not a technician, but as far as I know, BIOS has nothing to do with charging the battery. In my opinion, there are some problems with e-procurement (electronic load). Sorry, but I imagine that you must contact the partner in your country.

  They have diagnostic tools and it can be verified. Please call and simply explain the situation.

  Good luck!

  Well, if the BIOS update crashed you can do anything because the ROM module needs to be reflashed. This is possible only with special tools and only an authorized service provider has such tools.

  Then please contact the nearest service Toshiba and ask for help :)

  Hello

  Seems the CPU and GPU don t run full implementation after the BIOS update.
  Any performance CPU/GPU leads to lower the heat dissipation and this means that the cooling module does not need to execute quickly and very often.

  Check to see if you can change an option is the BIOS.
  You can also try to update a graphics driver and could control Windows 7 power management.
  Power management settings 7 victory could affect CPU and GPU performance to save battery power and reduce the heat dissipation.

  Hello

  I will try to be very short with answers:
  1. If you use Windows XP Home edition on your laptop have BIOS update with the version 5.30
  2 this version of BIOS is available for days and it is possible that many people already tried. By the way: until Toshiba out something that is tested and verified.
  3. Unfortunately there is documentation about bugs and patches, but the fact is that Toshiba has designed the 5.30 version to support the features of Windows XP Home edition on the models of laptops designed Vista

• HP Envy 15 Touchsmart does not start after the bios update

  I had one laptop touchsmart from HP Envy 15 (initially Windows 8, windows 8.1 now) for about 2 months now and have not had any problems, until a few hours ago I tried to update the bios of my laptop with the hp support assistant. After the reboot, the pc is more would start up and took me to a blue screen with the error SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED. Everything that I've done short far from a refreshment or a reset has not worked and if I could I would avoid both that I don't have the bandwidth to download windows 8.1 again.

  HI Calsius:

  Thank you for your query.  I will be happy to help in any way I can!

  After the Windows 8.1 update, did you create a restore point?  If so, you can use to restore from that date and not lose your 8.1 updated.  Some BIOS have an option for a restoration which should not affect your operating system.  I did a search of Microsoft and found this answer click here.   Here is a document on the ' update the BIOS'   click here.»  You did not provide your model number and the HP Envy 15, is a series, so I couldn't get a specific documentation for your computer.  Here is a document on ' computer will start (Windows 8) " click here. If you are able to get your computer running and upward I update all the driversand then create a restore point to return if necessary.  If the Bios update should fail a 2nd time, your restore point will take back you to just before you retried the update. If you were to use the recovery option you need go back to Windows 8, or back to the factory.

  Please let me know if this helped.

• Confused about the extension of the Sprite class

  Howdy-

  I learn programming with object oriented ActionScript and am confused about the class Sprite and OO in general.

  My understanding is that the Sprite class allows you to group a set of objects that you can manipulate all the objects at the same time.

  I explored the Open Flash Chart code and note that the main class extends the Sprite class:

  Base/public class extends Sprite {}

  What this lets you do?

  Also, on a related note, how to draw, say, a line once I extended?

  Without extend Sprite I could write:

  var graphContainer:Sprite = new Sprite();

  var newLine:Graphics = graphContainer.graphics;

  ...

  And it works very well. Once I have extend the Sprite class, I'm lost. How can I modify this code so that it still draws a line? I tried:

  var newLine:Graphics = this.graphics;

  My understanding is that since I extend the Sprite class, I should still be able to call its method chart (or property? I have no idea). But, he screams at me, saying "1046: Type was not found or is not a constant of compilation: graphs.»

  A number of things.

  First of all, I would not use this approach in your table constructor. Setting the width and height only makes sense if you adjust the width and height of the existing content, and the table (Sprite) does not at this time here. If you want to give the table a 'size', you could do it like this:

  public function Chart (width: Number, height: Number) {}
  This.Width = width;
  This.Height = height;
  put in a background invisible to this size:
  this.graphics.beginFill (0,0);
  this.graphics.drawRect (0,0,width,height);
  }

  There are other ways, including putting in a form or a Sprite of child as a child for the background so that clear will not erase the background of the chart. This way you could have properties for the background in your table class and update the background as a child DisplayObject instance... a few ideas to think to...

  Then, after that, your chart should be functional...

  Then back in your scenario, you could do this:

  import graphics. Table;

  Stop()

  var myNewChart:Chart = new Chart (300,200)
  myNewChart.render ();
  addChild (myNewChart)

• Satellite L300-1 has 3 - after the BIOS update, I get a BSOD

  I have a Satellite L300 1A 3 MODEL PSLB8E. I decided to update the version of the BIOS, thinking that he can resolve my issue of ethernet controller.

  But after the update, my laptop goes on infinite blue screen of death. How can I recover from this injury?

  Can someone please help.

  Hello

  Did you choose the good BIOS update for your model? Was it for Satellite L300 PSLB8E?

  What code you get BSOD?

  After the BIOS update you must always load the default settings. Maybe a bad BIOS setting is causing this BSOD.

• Can't do the BIOS update for Portégé R500 (PPR50E)

  I have a Portege R500 PPR50E with Vista Business pre-installed model. I am wanting to move to Windows 7 and so initially I want to update the BIOS of 1.5 to 1.6. I got the correct file from Toshiba (bios-20080325071859 containing P0058v160.exe), but when I try to run the application, it fails with "this computer is not supported.
  I checked several times that I downloaded the file for the R500.

  Can anyone help?

  Hello

  That s strange.
  Did you change something on you installed Vista?

  In different cases, the BIOS cannot be updated because some essential tools such as the common modules for Win XP has not been installed.
  If you are using vista you don't need common modules but I recommend reinstalling the VAP.
  Then you should try to rerun the update of the BIOS.

  Otherwise use the recovery disk and computer laptop back to factory settings.
  After the laptop has been set to the same State as on the first day of purchase, you can run the BIOS update.
